Chapter 172: Ding Cooking
Ma Daoist moved a chair, and Wang Laodao sat on it, staring at me gracefully.
Wang Laodao seems to have a magic that can see through people's hearts. I stared into his eyes, and the more I looked, the more nervous I became.
I looked to the ground and said in vain, "You're illegally detained. Aren't you afraid that the police will trouble you? ”
Wang Laodao glanced at me disdainfully: "The old man walks the rivers and lakes, subduing demons and eliminating demons, are you still worried about the constraints of the world?" ”
When he said this, I suddenly came to my senses. I, the so-called master who doesn't know anything, have been treated as a guest by Secretary Wang, and Wang Laodao has strong skills, and there must be many dignitaries and nobles who have begged him.
Thinking about this, I was even more desperate.
Wang Laodao didn't ask me about my identity again, but said confidently: "Judging from the ghost aura on your body, you have probably worked in the crematorium or cemetery for a long time. Or have you been bought by the imp since then? Hehe, little brother, dealing with ghosts, you may be able to gain a moment, but they are very treacherous, and when the time comes, you will definitely regret it. ”
I nodded indiscriminately and said, "Senior, I understand, when did you release me?" ”
Wang Laodao said: "When I catch the old fox and ask you about it, I will consider whether to let you go." ”
I was so anxious that I was sweating profusely, and I thought to myself, it would be better to make up a nonsense now and fool the past, so I said anxiously: "Can I take the initiative to explain?" ”
Wang Laodao smiled and said, "I don't believe you now." I'd rather go out and ask the little ghosts what they say. ”
With that, he turned and went out. Ma Daoist followed behind like a dog's leg, and with a clatter, closed the door of the house.
I sat in the dark room, sighing and thinking for a while. I comforted myself: it's useless to worry, I can only take one step at a time when I meet such a few old stubborns. I'm a living person anyway, and he can't kill me.
Gradually, a wave of tiredness came up. I yawned and fell asleep against the wall.
I don't know how long I slept, but the more I slept, the colder it became. Later, I woke up from freezing.
I heard the noise of people in the courtyard outside, and it was very lively.
I got up from the ground and looked out through the crack in the door. It was already dark outside, but there were a few large light bulbs that lit up the courtyard.
I saw a lot of villagers coming to the courtyard. There were men smoking dry cigarettes, and there were women with children in their arms. It's as if they're here to see the fun.
After a while, Ma Daoist opened the door and walked in with a hemp rope.
I asked curiously, "What are those people out there doing?" ”
Ma Daoist skillfully tied me, and while tying me, he said: "Those people are all watching the fun. ”
I asked suspiciously, "Watching the fun?" What to see lively? ”
Daoist Ma had already tied me up, and while pushing outside, he said, "Look at the little ghost." When the villagers heard that we had caught a ghost, they all wanted to come and see it. ”
Daoist Ma tied me to a tree and said to Wang Laodao, "Master, it's done." "The hall is in the hall.
Wang Laodao nodded, touched his white beard, and looked like a fairy wind bone. He said, "The women leave, the men stay." ”
The villagers reluctantly stayed in the courtyard and shouted, "Dao Chief, we've never seen what ghosts look like, let's see?" ”
Wang Laodao closed his eyes slightly and said, "No matter whether it is a good ghost or an evil ghost. The yin qi on the body is extremely heavy, and it is harmful and useless when it is stained on people's bodies. I let you go to protect you. Otherwise, you will be seriously ill when you go back, and you may lose your life as a result. ”
After Wang Laodao said this, the women really took the child and left.
Wang Laodao said again: "Those who are married leave, and those who are not married stay." ”
Another group of people walked in the crowd.
Wang Laodao stood on the steps like a general in formation, giving orders, and soon, there were only eight men in their twenties left in the courtyard.
None of these men were married, and they were strong and masculine.
Wang Laodao looked up at the starry sky. Said slowly: "Turn off the lights and put on candles." ”
Like a eunuch next to the emperor, Daoist Ma greeted back and forth: "Turn off the lights, turn off the lights." What about candles? ”
For a moment, the lights went out. A dozen candles lit up in the courtyard. Although the number of candles is large, the brightness is a bit lacking compared to electric lights.
I looked at the candlelight all over the yard, and my heart grew more and more afraid. To be honest, after living in an empty house for a long time, I already have a psychological shadow about candles.
Wang Laodao sat on a chair and commanded, "Open the door." ”
Ma Daoist ran over and opened the door. The door was dark, like a bottomless pit, and people were a little scared.
During this process, there were always two elderly people standing behind Wang Laodao, they supported each other, and looked at Wang Laodao expectantly.
After Ma Daoist opened the door, he took out four large jars from the house. It was covered with yellow paper and spells. Obviously, this is the demon altar.
Daoist Ma waved and said to the eight men, "A few of you come here." Two people sat cross-legged in a jar. ”
The men sat down face to face as Ma Daoist instructed. Between the two of them was a jar.
Wang Laodao turned back to the two old men and said, "Help the child out." ”
The two men agreed, and walked into the room tremblingly, and after a while. They helped out a man, probably in his thirties, with a stubble on his face, his hair disheveled, and he looked dirty.
I saw the man's glazed eyes, one squinting at the corner of the wall, drooling uncontrollably. The old lady next to him was crying and wiped him with her sleeve.
Wang Laodao stood up and gave up his chair to the man to sit on.
Then he picked up a red pen from the side, walked to a jar, and shouted: "You have harmed the living, and you deserve the punishment of this cooking." Then he drew a circle on the mouth of the altar with a red pen.
Wang Laodao drank this sentence four times. A red line was drawn on each of the four altars.
After a few words of command, the Taoist priest whispered. And the eight men took up a stick of incense from each of them. Then the seal on the mouth of the altar was lifted.
I heard a commotion from inside when the mouth of the altar was opened. Then there was a thud, as if something was trying to escape.
However, as if they were being suppressed by something, they never got what they wanted.
At this time, Wang Laodao shouted: "Torture." ”
The eight men aimed the incense in their hands at the mouth of the altar, and then slowly blew a wisp of green smoke into it.
At the same time, the imp inside the jar screamed. It seems that these incense makes them very uncomfortable.
The little ghost's cry was extremely miserable, and Daoist Ma was happy to see it, and began to trumpet his master's skills again.
After a while, he walked up to me and said with a grin, "See? Pack up these little imps first, and then it's up to you. ”
I said with a sad face, "I'm human." ”
I mean, I'm human and shouldn't be tortured like a ghost. I didn't expect Ma Daoist to be wrong and said, "You are human?" Don't think that if you are human, my master will not be able to cure you. He will take out your soul first, and then put it in this jar. What's the difference between you and them? ”
As soon as I heard this, my scalp went numb.
After a while, I asked in a low voice, "Ma Daochang, there is something I don't understand." Why can't you get along with that old fox? ”
When Daoist Ma heard me ask, he said proudly, "Why? Hey, do you see the one sitting in the chair? ”
I nodded, "See." Is he a fool? Drooling all the time. ”
Ma Daoist said: "It's really stupid now. But a few days ago, it was very shrewd. They were all killed by foxes in the graveyard. Let the family hook the soul away. Vixen, vixen, it's beautiful, but it's not a good thing. ”
I muttered in confusion, "Fox? I think that little girl is very kind, she should not be able to do such a thing. ”
Daoist Ma immediately pointed at me and said, "Admit it, don't you?" Admit that you're in collusion with those two foxes, aren't you? ”
I nervously denied it.
But Daoist Ma patted me on the shoulder and said, "What are you afraid of?" Actually, my master has already seen that you are coming. ”
