Naturally, the White Python Immortal would not tell Qiao Wei about the spells and ghost sealing techniques he used, so Qiao Wei simply went to ask his uncle Qi Zhen, which is why Qiao Wei Weishenme didn't contact me immediately after the exorcism.

According to Mr. Qi, the art of sealing ghosts in clay pots was practiced in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. When Mr. Qi was young, he once expelled a thousand-year-old evil ghost, which was sealed in a clay pot from the Warring States period.

During the Tang Dynasty in China, with the spread of Yin-Yang to Japan, clay pots and ghosts and white paper charms also crossed eastward and developed independently into a new branch in Japan. Until now, white charms and clay pots can always be seen in Japanese film and television works about onmyoji.

Compared to Japan, white charms are much rarer in China, and clay pot sealing ghost magic has been completely eliminated.

White means gold in the five elements, but both Nanmao and Beima will use metal swords to help the five elements of gold, and red or yellow is also used in the selection of paper symbols; As for the clay pot sealing technique, not to mention the cumbersome preparation steps, the major defect of the fragile and difficult preservation of the clay pot alone is enough to cause it to gradually fade out of people's sight.

As early as the fourth generation of the Bazhai Hall, that is, the generation of Mr. Qi's master, the ghost seals rarely used earthen pots and paper seals. By the sixth generation, they all switched to small and sturdy tempered glass, and replaced the seal with a blood seal, which was also Qiao Wei's method of sealing the fire dog.

Among the insiders in the ghost circle that Mr. Qi knew, there were no more than ten people who knew how to use earthen pots to seal ghosts, and they were all old men of the same age as him. And among the few people who know how to seal ghosts in earthen pots, none of them are accustomed to using white charms. In addition, Mr. Qi had no impression of this white python immortal at all, so he felt that this white python immortal's skills were probably learned from the Japanese onmyoji.

Of course, the location of the teacher is not the key to the suspicion, the real suspicion lies in the clay pot sealing ghost technique itself.

Qiao Wei learned from Mr. Qi that the clay pot sealing ghost technique was more like a trap, and it was necessary to bury the clay pot into the ground in advance, and then lay a rune array around the location of the earthen pot, which was very similar to the water prison ghost array used by Mr. Qi when he caught the fire dog. But the difference is that the arrangement of the clay pot sealing ghost array takes longer, and the drawing method of the spell also requires more precision, which is definitely not something that can be done in a minute or two, even for those who are more skilled, it takes two or three hours to prepare.

But in the morning, Li Bald made it clear that the location where the ghost fire appeared was not regular at all. Qiao Wei felt that Li Bald didn't lie, and I also felt that the grandson wouldn't lie to us under the circumstances at that time, but the white python immortal laid down the clay pot and sealed the ghost fire in a very short time!

weishenme？

Either this white python immortal is a rising star who is more clever than Qi Zhen's old man Jishu, or he knew where the ghost fire would appear and arranged it in advance. Qiao Wei is more inclined to the latter, and I think the same way.

On the other hand, the white python immortal had obviously sealed the ghost fire, but it smashed the earthen pot, which would only scatter the ghost and not eradicate it. Judging from the disappointed expression of the white python fairy, Qiao Wei felt that this white python fairy was probably choosing the most ferocious ghost to be the talisman immortal, because he felt that the catch was not strong enough, so he threw it away.

Also, if those ghosts broke some kind of seal on the eighth day of the new year and then started to hurt people, then there is no reason for them to appear only one at a time, and it is more reasonable that they should appear in groups like the three haunted high-rise buildings before. So Qiao Wei thinks that someone is deliberately and slowly releasing these ghosts.

Combined with the white python fairy's previous behavior of catching ghosts and releasing ghosts, it is easy to deduce a conclusion - the person who made a name for himself on the eighth day of the first lunar month was the white python immortal, he knew that there were dead people in the west of the city fifty years ago, and the ghosts in this kind of corpse field were the most resentful, and he wanted to find the most fierce one from these hundred or so resentful ghosts to be a talisman immortal.

But there is one thing I don't understand, and that is what special meaning it means to catch a ferocious talisman for Mr. Ghost Things.

Qiao Wei replied: "Like all trades, there is also competition and competition between Mr. Ghost Affairs, and the open and secret battles between Ghost Things Hall and Ghost Things Hall have never stopped. When Master Taizu first established the Bazhai Hall, the Bazhai Hall was still just a small hall with no name, and it was only by relying on the competition between Master Taizu and other ghost halls that the name of the Bazhai Hall was gradually called, and the highlight of the fighting method was the competition between the talisman immortals. ”

"Then listen to what you mean, this white python fairy is about to kick out of the hall? Attack on Lentdo? ”

"I don't know." Qiao Wei shook his head, "No matter which ghost hall he is going to target, he can't do it well." ”

"It's not just a bad place!" I also shook my finger at Qiao Wei, "The fire in the laboratory building of the medical school can burn out a lot of ghosts, and it is estimated that the one who made a move to Li Bald behind his back is this white python immortal, maybe it is his own hand!" If that's the case, then this white-haired old miscellaneous hair is a murderer! ”

Qiao Wei listened with a frown, and nodded.

"And whatever!" I added, "That fire dog should be considered a powerful talisman immortal, right?" I thought it should be that we should start quickly, if we take a little slower, I'm afraid that the big stupid will let the white python fairy take it away, and he will definitely hate you now! In addition, the big and small white python fairy used the trick of your Bazhai Hall, if these two python immortals are indeed connected, then you need to think about a lot of things, especially if your mother is gone, and there is also an intersection with the big and small white python fairy in action. ”

"What do you think is in there?" Qiao Wei asked.

"I did come up with an article, but there is no evidence, it can only be regarded as random guessing, you don't have to take it completely seriously."

"Well, you just say it."

"I guess there should be a ghost hall ready to challenge the Eight Lent Hall, and they are also actively preparing for this purpose, and they have also installed an internal response inside the Eight Lent Hall, which can be seen from the fact that they know how to use the ghost control technique of the Eight Lent Hall. But the Basai Hall side is not sitting still, your mother is likely to find a powerful talisman to fight, in order to avoid the eyes and ears of the competitors, so she deliberately played the disappearance. Your mother has often disappeared before, and I guess it's probably the same reason, after all, she used to be a disciple of the lineage, and her actions are definitely much more convenient than your current cousin, but this time the opponent is probably not easy to deal with, so the disappearance has been relatively long. "I made what I thought was the most plausible inference based on all the information available.

Qiao Wei listened carefully and immediately agreed.

However, Qiao Wei and I don't need to worry about other ghost things to kick the hall, what is more important at the moment is how to solve the ghost fire that appeared in Fengba, and the key to solving this trouble is obviously the python fairy surnamed Bai. So after discussing with Qiao Wei, we decided to start with Li Bald first, and the time is now.
