Chapter XXVIII
Hearing the words of this old woman, Chen Changsheng couldn't help but feel a little more curious in his heart. And he had a good heart, and he wanted to help take a look, so he answered immediately, and left the place with the old woman.
Along the way, someone pointed at him, which made Chen Changsheng's heart more and more strange. However, although he is not deep, he knows that although this old woman is involved in ghosts, she is definitely not a ghost, but a real person.
Therefore, he did not pay attention to the others at the moment, and followed the old woman to the west side of the town, where there were many fewer houses and fewer people, and there was no way to compare with other places.
Although it is broad daylight, the atmosphere here is also a little depressing, and in layman's terms, it is a bit ghostly.
"This is it."
The old woman stretched out her hand and pointed to an ordinary yard, which was very dilapidated and looked like it had not been repaired for many years. Chen Changsheng has also become much more cautious over the years, he looked at it and found no ghosts.
"That's weird."
Chen Changsheng was secretly surprised in his heart, and when he heard the old woman's words, he nodded and said, "I'll help you take a look, but it's strange that your boss hasn't eaten for so long." Something else might happen, so be prepared. ”
The old woman walked tremblingly, and when she heard this, her lips kept trembling, and after a while, she said, "Okay, okay, you can just show it, just show it." ”
Her whole person was chattering and in a trance.
Chen Changsheng secretly said pitiful, this old woman is nearly seventy years old, but there seems to be no one to take care of her, and she doesn't know if she has no heirs, or because the heirs are not filial, she doesn't care about them?
Entering the courtyard, Chen Changsheng became more and more uncomfortable, and his back was cold. With a creak, the wooden door was pushed open by the old woman, making an unpleasant harsh sound. The room was getting darker and darker, and the candles had been lit, but they weren't lit at all.
Chen Changsheng tightened his clothes, he had already opened his eyes and looked carefully, but he still couldn't see anything. There are no ghosts here, Chen Changsheng is completely sure of this, but what is the reason for this situation?
Is it a problem with Feng Shui?
Chen Changsheng thought about it, and couldn't help laughing at himself, this possibility is not very likely.
"You're coming here." The old woman interrupted Chen Changsheng's train of thought and waved at Chen Changsheng.
Chen Changsheng nodded and followed the old woman into the bedroom. It was getting colder and colder here, much colder than in the courtyard, which made Chen Changsheng shiver. He muttered in his heart, and at the same time glanced at the old woman on the bed, almost not startling him.
A scrawny old man was lying on the bed, completely out of breath and less in air. His eye sockets were deeply sunken, and if he hadn't stood so close, he would have thought it was a dead man.
Chen Changsheng calmed down and seriously investigated.
This time, he was completely blinded, although this old man looked like he was dying, but this is definitely a human being, that is, the ghost on his body was a little heavier by the old woman. Moreover, according to previous experience, this old man doesn't seem to be a ghost.
"You show it, you show it......"
The old woman sat tremblingly on the edge of the bed, her cloudy eyes full of anticipation and sadness, which was different from the previous trance.
Chen Changsheng nodded, and then checked it seriously. I couldn't figure it out, so I asked, "Have you ever had any strange things happen to you?" When did this happen to the old man? ”
"Bizarre things? When? ”
The old woman looked at Chen Changsheng blankly, very confused, and kept repeating this sentence in her mouth, as if she was thinking. Chen Changsheng also stood patiently and waited, he knew that this old woman was also because of the erosion of ghost qi, which is commonly said to be evil qi entering the body.
After a long time, the old woman still shook her head, "I don't know, I can't remember...... You can show it, you can show it, right? ”
Chen Changsheng's head was big for a while, so he had to nod, he took out a yellow talisman, cast the Yin and Yang Technique, and carried out the most basic method of exorcism to see if he could do it. Who knew that such a try would really be useful, and the old man's breathing was a little easier.
"If it works, it should be the most common situation. And for such an old man, there can't be anything enchanting to suck his yang energy, right? ”
Chen Changsheng thought to himself, but because he had thought that there might be something wrong with the feng shui here before, he walked around the room to see if there was something hidden that he didn't know.
The old woman just sat there, ignoring Chen Changsheng's movements.
Chen Changsheng tossed for a while, but never found anything. After thinking about it, he calmed down and began to seriously feel where that cold feeling came from. Soon, he really felt it, and felt a stream of yin qi wafting out from under the bed.
Chen Changsheng was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly bent down to look under the bed, but found nothing else, but found a dilapidated box, which was almost rotten, and mold grew in many places. Chen Changsheng easily pulled out the dilapidated box, there was nothing in it, it was just a bunch of shabby things, many of which were very old.
Chen Changsheng churned, and suddenly hurriedly stretched out his hand, and his hand was cold, as if he had been stung by a scorpion. Chen Changsheng took a deep breath and didn't dare to use his hands anymore, but used the peachwood sword to directly overturn the box, and suddenly the things inside spilled all over the ground.
"It's ......"
Chen Changsheng looked at one of them in surprise as it looked very ordinary, but there was a cold air constantly coming out from above. This is a bronze mirror, only the size of a palm, the workmanship is very exquisite, the texture around the frame is strange, take a closer look, but find that the burning is actually a variety of strange ghosts, some beautiful and ugly.
Chen Changsheng tried to reach out and touch it, but before he could get closer, he couldn't stand it, so he had to give up, and after thinking about it, he turned the mirror over with a peachwood sword.
"Your mother!"
At this turn, Chen Changsheng suddenly jumped to his feet in fright, not because he was timid, but because anyone who saw a bloody, hideous and terrifying skull would also be startled.
It wasn't a real skull, just a carved pattern, but it was lifelike, like the real thing. Chen Changsheng took a deep breath, and was embarrassed for his timidity, but fortunately he lay down on the bed, and there was a demented person, but no one laughed at him.
"Old woman, where did this thing come from?"
Chen Changsheng looked at the old woman and asked, the old woman did not look at the bronze mirror, but looked at Chen Changsheng in a trance, and said after a while: "I don't know, I can't remember." ”
Chen Changsheng rolled his eyes suddenly, you didn't even look at it, and said that you can't remember?
Chen Changsheng was also helpless with her, so he had to carefully check other miscellaneous items. This look is really rewarding. A very old yellow talisman lay quietly inside, all crumpled into a ball.
Chen Changsheng picked it up and sorted it out, it was quite complete, but it was too old. I don't know what year it is, and even the paper is not the yellow paper it is now.
"It's ......"
Chen Changsheng frowned and looked at it, feeling that he was very embarrassed, he had never seen such a complicated spell in his life. It's hard to discern the font on the top, because some things are primary, and some are auxiliary.
The combination of the main and the secondary, that is the real spiritual rune.
"Pardon, Infinite Heavenly Ghost Seal?"
Chen Changsheng scratched the back of his head, and finally took a look. However, he thinks that he does not have the strength to draw this kind of spirit rune, although his Taoism is still very shallow, but this spirit rune can be done by a strong person at a glance, and it is conservatively estimated that there are at least five feet of Taoism.
Chen Changsheng picked up the spirit talisman and wiped some saliva on his mouth, and then tried to stick it on the mirror. Suddenly something unexpected happened, and the mirror I touched during the pasting process turned out to be just a touch of coolness, and there was no longer the cold feeling before.
It's not just this problem, the temperature of the whole room is rising rapidly.
"Whew, Whew......"
The old man's breathing on the bed suddenly became rapid, much stronger than just now.
Chen Changsheng had no choice but to put aside the matter of the mirror for the time being, and began to expel the residual ghost qi in the old man's body, and by the way, even the old woman was the same. After being busy for most of the hour, Chen Changsheng was tired and sweating profusely, after all, he was a one-foot Taoist priest, and he was tired enough to choke after this toss.
The old woman also had a little more energy, but fortunately, she still remembered that Chen Changsheng was invited by her. Chen Changsheng hurriedly told her to hurry up and boil some gruel, so that the old man would wake up hungry and faint after a while, so she agreed and hurried to get busy.
Chen Changsheng sat on the ground casually, the fate of the old couple was saved, and his tiredness was worth it. But judging by the dilapidated nature of the house, he didn't have the heart to get any reward.
Thinking of the reward, Chen Changsheng looked at the bronze mirror again, and now there was only a faint coolness in his hand, but it became very comfortable. Chen Changsheng took a closer look, whether it was workmanship or material, this bronze mirror was all of the best.
"Huh?"
Chen Changsheng was suddenly surprised, facing his mirror, there was no figure?
Could it be that this is a ghost mirror?
