Yinping Mountain is located in the mountains surrounding, a peak is high, standing on the top of the mountain to look down can be said to be a glimpse of the mountains are small, now down the mountain, looking at the mountain running horse is really sad to death individual, along the winding mountain road walked for a day, also failed to leave this stretching mountain range, seeing that the sky is getting late, but do not see the smoke, the heart can not help but be a little anxious, to a low slope in the distance and run.

When the bright moon rose and the silver was full of flowers, I finally climbed this low slope, the slope was quite lively, and there were a lot of people living there, but they were all not breathing, and the graves of different heights and different were scattered all over the hillside.

Among the graves on the slope, there is a small earthen house for guarding the grave, and there are a few dead trees around the house, and the mountain wind blows and occasionally whimpers.

Although it looks a little shabby, it is rare in this mountain wilderness, probably because of the time, some tombs are almost smoothed by wind and rain, and can only be roughly judged according to the terrain, along the way, I don't know how many graves have been stepped on.

Crunch~, when I came to the front of the room, I gently pushed open the two crumbling doors, there were no windows on the wall, and the room could not see through the moonlight black hole, and I could only see a small part of the door.

I took the candle out of my bag and lit it, and looked into the room by the light, which was covered with dust nets, and there was a three-legged table with two wooden planks standing in the corner.

The environment is okay, much better than I imagined, at least there are no leaks, but there are no windows, which makes people feel very weird, I walked inside, and scratched the dust net that blocked the road with my hands.

In front of the table, I blew down on the foot of the table with all my strength, and the dust flew up and leaked out of the black left, and a few drops of wax oil were dropped on the foot of the table, and I put the candle on it, glad that I had brought a candle with me when I went down the mountain, otherwise it would have been blackened in the night.

The candles were shining, the room was bright, I went to the corner and knocked on the two wooden planks that were standing, it was okay, the rotten ones were not very bad, I moved one to hold the door against it, and the other one dusted off the top with my sleeve, and slowly spread it on the ground, this plank was my bed tonight.

After a day of walking on the mountain road, my body was already a little tired, chewed a few mouthfuls of dry food, poured two mouthfuls of cold water, dispelled the hunger in my belly, I lay on my back on the plank, I felt a little depressed, the first time I traveled alone, I lived on a grave slope and the dead man as a companion, I don't know whose ancestors lived in the grave outside, and now there is no descendant to take care of it, only this earthen house to guard the old grave, but let me avoid the danger of sleeping in the wilderness.

The mountains in the night are the time when the beasts are foraging, like a fog, when these natural hunters are quietly approaching, and you are sleeping soundly, maybe you meet a snake, maybe a lone wolf, or maybe any little thing you don't know, and as a human being in the natural world is not a strong creature, the best way is to find a place to hide when the darkness comes.

Although the earthen house is dilapidated, it can make people feel safe, as for the large and small graves outside, it is not the last habitat of the deceased, they will only slowly rot in the ground, and will not hunt everywhere like wild beasts, I am not worried that they will crawl out and strangle me, even ghosts are not casual encounters, you are afraid that people will come to the door, and people will not see you yet.

There were a few noisy turtledoves squatting on the dead trees outside, and they kept screaming "coo, coo, coo", watching the dust net on the roof like a light gauze swaying slightly, my sleepiness gradually swelled up, just when I was about to close my eyes, these dust nets suddenly seemed to be alive, and began to quickly scratch and connect, forming a huge grimace, giggling ~ smirking down from the roof, the big mouth full of sharp teeth seemed to bite me into my stomach.

I was startled, and all my sleepiness was dissipated, and I grabbed the probe ruler beside me, put it in front of my chest, sat up from the plank suddenly, and opened my sleepy eyes wide to see that the room was black and hollow, and only a trace of moonlight shone through the crack in the door and sprinkled on the ground.

With a long exhalation, I raised my hand to wipe the cold sweat from my forehead, it turned out to be just a nightmare, probably because there were graves everywhere, and my subconscious unintentionally compiled a terrible dream for myself, just as I was admonishing myself not to think about it, but I heard a strange voice, "sting, stinging~ stinging, stinging~ stinging, stinging~stinging~".

What is this sound, like some animal scratching the door with its claws outside, is it looking for my scent? But this sound is too weird, even if it is a lion or a tiger scratching the door, it shouldn't be this kind of sound, and besides, how big a smell I have to be to attract a beast.

I didn't dare to light the candle, so I quietly stood up, took the probe ruler, moved to the door step by step in the dark, and then gently leaned down and looked out through the crack in the door.

This look startled me, only to see that between the cracks in the door, a white Sensen's bone claw was constantly rubbing on the door, and every time it shook it, there would be a sound of "sting, bang", and the cold sweat that had just been wiped off was instantly covered with my head, and the clothes behind me were also wet.

Ghost! Looking at the shaking hand bones, there was only this one hungry word left in my heart, and I clenched the probe ruler in my hand, and kept recalling the master's description of ghosts in my mind.

Ghosts are the obsessive spirits left behind after death, and when the resentment is large, it is a terrible ghost, and when the resentment is small, it is a mortal ghost, whether it is a terrible ghost or a mortal ghost, after absorbing the yin qi, evil qi, evil qi, or other factors, it will become more powerful.

And when people face powerful ghosts, the first thing is to be full of momentum, to be bold, not to be afraid, cowardly emotions, otherwise it will take the opportunity to harm you, like the current situation, according to the method said by the master, I should now roar, directly rush out and give it a hard blow with a probe ruler, so that it knows what it means to have three eyes.

Just when I hesitated to rush out, the strange scratching sound outside stopped abruptly, the white Sensen's hand bones seemed to say goodbye to people, gently shook a few times, left the door panel, began to move to the right, I held my breath, stared intently, after the bone claws passed, what appeared after the bone claws passed was not a long arm bone and a hollow skull, but a bobcat twisted its fat ass and walked through the crack in the door, and when leaving, it also screamed "woo, woo" twice.

Call~! I lay on the ground all over the place, and I had a false alarm for a long time, and I don't know in which grave the bobcat had taken out the bones of a dead man, and it was frightening in the middle of the night, and judging from the fat body and smooth fur, these graves must have been visited by it.

Your uncle, don't go to eat your supper, run to scare the master to play, I scolded, got up and lit the candle on the table, after such a toss, my sleepiness is all gone, lying on the wooden board looking at the light dust net on the roof with blank eyes, my heart is churning, I am really afraid that it will suddenly become a grimace.

Fortunately, it was just a bobcat, if it was really a ghost, I don't know if I was standing and fighting with a ghost now? Still lying on the ground has become a lonely ghost on the slope of this wild grave.

Suffering in the mountains for 12 years, every day with the master, there is no less to learn things, but think about it carefully, I really haven't learned what to catch ghosts and demons, and blame me for being stupid, the old thing doesn't look down on catching ghosts and demons, every time I talk about this, I skip it with contempt, I didn't take it seriously at the time, I thought this ghost was so easy to catch, I didn't expect to just get off the mountain, I was frightened by a bobcat, it's really a shame to throw it to my grandmother's house.

Now think about it, why do you say that I have nothing to do with choosing a grave slope to spend the night, I really have nothing to look for, hey, this is a hero who is easy to do, and if I really charge into battle, I am quite uncertain.

I still remember that the old thing was talking nonsense to me like this: apprentice, whether it is a demon or a ghost in this world, it is not something we can manage, we are just a group of ordinary cultivators, a group of ancient inheritors, not much stronger than ordinary people, our ancestors are like a group of alternative scientists, they opened a door to explore the mysteries of heaven and earth, but this door is too mysterious, too subtle, not a person, or a group of people, or even a generation can study and understand.

Do you really think that drawing some talismans and reciting a few words of mantra that people can't understand can drive away ghosts and demons? Our Taoist lineage discovered the development process of heaven and earth from nothing in the exploration of the ancient ancestors, and summarized the Tao theory of chaos, chaos, Wuji, Taiji, Tao giving birth to one, life two, two giving birth to three, and three giving birth to all things, and then to the four images, five elements, gossip, etc., which one, which one has told you that talismans and spells are useful?

The Tao has been inherited for too long, mixed with too many miscellaneous things, turning the original pure things into a miasma, some people with ulterior motives even dare to change the "Tao Te Ching", and create too many things that will poison the future generations, talisman spells These are just a corner, if you really believe it, you are a fool.

Our method of cultivation is only a little connection between ourselves and heaven and earth that we have discovered in our exploration, and what we are seeking is nothing more than a strong body, so that we can protect ourselves when we enter some mysterious places to explore, and we can escape at the worst.

Meditation strengthens one's own aura, in order to increase inspiration, better integrate with the world, and be more sensitive when exploring the secrets of heaven and earth, just like choosing a yin house, whether they are looking at the mountains, looking at the water, or choosing the tomb of the stars, in the end, the only thing that is indispensable is the compass.

What do you say this compass is for, positioning, to put it bluntly, use the compass to sense the direction of the aura, and finally choose the tomb at a node of the earth's spiritual veins, which is the auxiliary products derived from our exploration of heaven and earth.

So if you really encounter something awesome, don't think about those useless things, prepare to fight hard, you really can't beat one word - run, run slowly, get caught, that's your bad luck.

However, everything in this world has mutual restraint, no matter how powerful the evil thing is, there are also things to restrain it, such as zombies encountering glutinous rice, which belongs to yang and yin, and there is a kind of yin and yin, such as the yin ruler handed down by the ancestors, this is a treasure of extreme yin, and a wonderful reaction will occur when it hits some yin and evil things, which is called yin and yang in our Taoists.
