Chapter 32: The Eight Masters

I saw the old monk's eyes burning, and I looked at him with four eyes, and I was a little embarrassed for a moment, and quickly turned to the side.

The old monk was not embarrassed, but walked towards me.

I felt that the old monk's two eyes were gentle, but there was a majesty in them, and I felt uncomfortable when I saw it, and cold sweat flowed out, and I felt that the two eyes were like two huge hands.

At this moment, the old monk had already walked in front of me, he smiled slightly, and said: Xiaoyou, are you Haoran's friend?

As soon as I looked up, I saw that the old monk was looking at me quietly, he was not tall, less than 1.7 meters, but his body was very fat, he was not 70 years old but more than 60 years old, a pair of eyebrows were already white, and very long, it was longevity eyebrows.

I was a little at a loss for a while, so I simply folded my hands and saluted, and said, "Yes, Master, I am Haoran's friend."

As soon as I finished this action, I felt a little stupid, but fortunately, the old monk didn't seem to mind too much, he quickly pulled me to the side and sat down, and then said: Xiaoyou, don't be so polite, our monks are actually no different from you, don't be so well-behaved, I see Xiaoyou, you have a blue face, I'm afraid you have also attracted some evil things, right?

I nodded, feeling that I could barely hide anything in front of this great monk. In addition, Haoran's death made me feel very guilty, and I also lacked a person to talk to, and when I heard the old monk ask me, I simply summoned ghosts in the subway, met Lao Xie, a yin person, and helped Mengyun disperse Meng Erbai, and then told all the things in the later series

The old monk listened quietly, and did not say a word during the whole process, as if he knew all these things.

When I finished speaking, the old monk nodded slowly and said something very good.

I'm a little strange, these experiences are so terrifying, especially Haoran lost his life, why does the old monk still say it's very good?

However, at this moment, I suddenly noticed that Haoran's father walked behind me for some reason, he was still wearing sunglasses, and I couldn't see his expression.

What I said just now, Haoran's father had obviously heard it.

I was a little stunned, I didn't know what kind of medicine Haoran's father and this old monk were selling in the gourd.

The old monk saw that I was a little panicked, and hurriedly said: Xiaoyou, your name is Lin Yang, right?

I nodded.

The old monk said: Let me introduce myself first, my law name is Lingzhao, my common name is Wang Zhenye, and Haoran's grandfather is a cousin.

As soon as I heard this, I immediately understood in my heart that this old monk was not here to do things for Haoran, he turned out to be Haoran's relative.

However, people say that after the family converts to Buddhism, they must abandon their own lay names, let alone have dealings with their lay relatives, but obviously this statement is incorrect, because Wang Zhenye, or Master Lingzhao, still has close ties with the Haoran family.

Master Lingzhao paused and continued: On the day of Haoran's accident, I immediately came out of the temple and rushed over, and after seeing Haoran's body, I roughly understood the cause and effect of the matter, and the place where Haoran had an accident should be the Bai family tomb, right?

I was stunned when I heard this, I didn't expect this old monk to know about the Bai family tomb, if it wasn't for Haoran and they saw it with their own eyes and said it in person, I wouldn't know it at all, I don't know how this old monk knew.

The old monk shook his head and said, "Don't be surprised first, after I saw Haoran's accident, I immediately understood the problem. Although the old ghost in the Bai family's grave is fierce, he will not do it easily, and this time Haoran had an accident, and it was by no means for no reason. So I checked Haoran's classmates, and finally learned that one of his classmates had recently hit a ghost, and of course, that person was you.

When I heard this, the cold sweat on my body was already pouring down. No wonder the old monk didn't have the slightest surprise when he listened to my narration just now, it turned out that this guy had already silently investigated everything clearly. Looks like he knows everything about me too.

So why did he ask me again?

Seeing my frightened face, the old monk hurriedly patted me on the shoulder, and then said to Haoran's father: Yamin, how is it, do you think this child is still honest?

Haoran's father nodded and said: Well, he didn't hide it from us, it can be regarded as above board, and Haoran's matter can't be blamed on him.

The old monk also nodded and said, "Lin Yang, I'm sorry, I just wanted to test you when I asked you before, because after all, Haoran's death is inseparable from you. I don't mean to blame you, but I want to know what your character is.

Only then did I realize that the reason why the old monk asked me was because he wanted to test me. He obviously knew that the reason why Haoran died was because I was in front of the ghosts, and if they were unreasonable, they could have regarded me as one of the culprits who killed Haoran, but fortunately, the old monk and Haoran's father were both reasonable people and did not do so.

I nodded gratefully and said, "Thank you, Haoran's death is all because of me, and I will definitely be responsible for it to the end."

The old monk shook his head again and again and said, "No, Lin Yang, this has nothing to do with you, and you are just a victim." It was the old ghost of the Bai family who killed Haoran, I am responsible for this matter, don't interfere.

Haoran's father also gritted his teeth and said: These ghostly things of the Bai family dare to touch my son's life, do they really think that we people in the yang world can't fight the ghosts in the underworld?

The old monk silently recited a sentence of Amitabha Buddha and said: These people in the Bai family have been in peace underground all these years, and they have never asked about the affairs of the yang world, but this time they suddenly appeared, definitely not just because of that little ghost Lin Yang, in addition to dealing with the little ghost these days, have you encountered anything else?

When I heard this, I suddenly thought of the bloody handprint on my back, and I hurriedly lifted my clothes and said, "Master, can you help me see this bloody handprint?"

The old monk glanced at it, and I heard him whisper.

I hurriedly asked, "Master, what the hell is this?"

The old monk was silent for a moment, and said slowly: This is a ghost urging

I was shocked when I heard this, and quickly turned around and asked, "Master, can you make it clear, what is a ghost urging, and can this ghost urging still be saved?"

The old monk's face was serious, and he shook his head and said: Hades is a ghost who deals cards, originally this is a predestined thing in the two worlds of yin and yang, and a person's yang life has a fixed number, which is called Hades dealing. But the ghost can urge you, that is, forcibly reduce your yang life, which is the ghost urging. Looking at this bloody handprint, this ghost method of urging life should be very clever, and he printed this handprint, which has several meanings.

Speaking of this, the old monk paused for a moment, and then continued: First, your Yangshou has been targeted by him, no matter how he urges, when you die, you have to listen to him; Second, you have been marked by that ghost, and if other ghosts want to kill you, they must have the consent of that ghost; Thirdly, with this mudra, you must not be reincarnated immediately after you die, you are going to be a lonely ghost and a wild ghost, so you are actually half a wild ghost now

After listening to the old monk's words, my heart was basically cold. Although I had long expected that this bloody handprint would be very evil and fierce, I never expected it to be so fierce.

According to the old monk, haven't I already started the countdown to death now?

I was a little panicked, and I was not restless at all, so I hurriedly asked, "Master, what should I do then?" Do you know who gave me this ghostly order? Is there a way to save it?

The old monk also showed a sympathetic expression on his face, he shook his head and said: There are countless lonely souls and wild ghosts in Sijiu City, and it is difficult for me to determine who did it. But this handprint is extremely fierce, there are not many people with such ability, in my opinion, it must be done by the leading figures among the four major families.

I was stunned for a moment and asked: Do you still know the four major families under the Sijiu City?

The old monk nodded and said: Of course I know that when the subway was built in the city, the four major families in the city were troubled together, and I personally came to discuss and solve it.

Hearing this, I immediately remembered what I heard from the bus driver in the suburbs, he said that the subway was not built smoothly when it was built, so he invited high-ranking people from all over the country to come and do it, and it seems that this old monk is one of them.

Haoran's father also nodded and said: "Yes, when the subway was built, the city invited a total of eight masters, and my cousin was one of them.

I was in awe and hurriedly asked, "Master, then the handprints behind me could be the hands of those people?"

The old monk thought for a while and said: The most likely should be the Bai family, the Bai family ranks second among the four major families, and there are naturally a lot of powerful ghosts, among which the five brothers of benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, and wisdom are already extremely evil characters, and there are three more fierce masters above them without brothers.

I could hear a cold sweat on my spine, I didn't expect that there were so many powerful ghosts in the Bai family alone.

The old monk paused for a moment, and then said: The third of the four major families, no one in the Wang family should attack you. Speaking of this, I saw that the old monk's expression changed, and he seemed to stop talking.

Although I didn't understand what the old monk meant, I felt that there was another deep meaning in his words.

Before I could say more, the old monk continued: As for the Chen family, which is the weakest of the four major families, there is only one person who can make such a vicious handprint, and that is their patriarch. However, I had a contact with the head of the Chen family last time I negotiated, and I always felt that he was not a vicious person, and apart from these three families, there was only the Xu family, the head of the four major families, left.
