Chapter 163: Yin Qi Condenses the Soul
After reciting the jade whisk incantation, three yin spirits immediately appeared side by side under the longitudinal beam on the west side of the house, and it was the first time Zuo Dengfeng saw the hanging yin spirit, even if he had been mentally prepared before, he was still startled by them.
These are the ghosts of three young women, no older than twenty, wearing red bridal dresses, they may have looked good when they were alive, but they are very ugly at the moment, because their eyes are very bulging, their bright red tongues are sticking out to the jaw area, and there are still two lines of blood and tears under their eyes, and their expressions are violent and cruel, as if they want to choose someone to devour, but they can't move, so they can only stand still.
"Why is it so ugly?" Zuo Dengfeng frowned and asked.
"This is what they looked like before they died, and that's what hanged people do." Yufu explained.
"Why isn't it afraid of us?" Zuo Dengfeng asked again, ordinary Yin Spirits would try their best to avoid contact with the people in the Dao Sect who had survived the Heavenly Tribulation, but these three Yin Spirits didn't seem to have a frightened expression.
"The resentment is too heavy, and it affects the normal sanity." Jade Whisk turned her head to look at the iron shoes standing in the doorway, "Master, it's up to you to overtake them. ”
When Iron Shoes heard this, he immediately walked to the side beam and sat cross-legged, reciting Buddhist scriptures, don't look at his usual madness, but he really wants to do the Dharma very solemnly.
"You don't ask them questions." Zuo Dengfeng looked at the jade whisk.
"I didn't expect them to be so angry, and besides, how can they ask with their tongues sticking out so long." Jade Fu laughed.
"Why don't you overtake them yourself." Zuo Dengfeng asked again.
"As we all know, Buddhism cultivates the next life, Taoism cultivates this life, and the transcendent yin soul is to consume the blessings of the transcendent in this life, and this kind of transcendent ritual is harmless to the Buddhist monks, but it is harmful to the people in the Daomen." Yufu explained.
After Yufu finished speaking, the voice of the iron shoes immediately raised a lot, and the speed of reciting the scriptures also increased, it was obvious that he heard Yufu's words, and his heart was complacent.
Zuo Dengfeng nodded when he heard this, this kind of thing belongs to the "technique" derived from the "law", he understands the law but does not know the art.
"Most of the current rituals are done for the living, and there are very few who really surpass the souls, the so-called excesses are to resolve the grievances and sins of the souls before they are alive, but the gods will not forgive their sins for no reason, unless you exchange what you have on your body, only in this way can you ensure that the world is peaceful and the yin and yang are balanced." Jade Whisk spoke again.
"According to what you say, not only excess, but also fortune-telling, deduction, and house viewing will also consume the blessings of the Taoist priest." Zuo Dengfeng asked.
"Yes, in addition to catching ghosts and subduing demons, other domineering rituals will more or less detract from the caster's own blessings and longevity, so the real Taoist priest will not easily help others to tell fortunes and fix the house, we have no right to decide the level of a person's fortune, nor do we have the right to decide whether he is lucky or unlucky, because we are not the ancestors of the Three Qing Dynasty, we do not have so much power to make big changes to the final result." The jade whisk is the right color opening.
"You mean you can change the process." Zuo Dengfeng asked again.
"It's okay to go to the end of the day." Jade Fu nodded and smiled.
Morning and evening are now described as a person is not strong-willed, but its origin is to play monkeys to feed the monkeys, give the monkey three dates in the morning, and then give four more at night, the monkey feels less, the monkey man changed the feeding method, give four in the morning, give three in the evening, so that the monkey thinks that there is more food, in fact, there are still seven dates, one is not more, the meaning of the jade whisk is that a person's inherent blessing can be advanced through spells, in fact, it is still wool out of the sheep, it is appropriate to say that the tail of the gecko is pulled off, Then it was stuffed into its mouth and coaxed the gecko white to rejoice.
"In this way, aren't you also a charlatan?" Zuo Dengfeng said with a smile.
"You can't say that, because we can sacrifice ourselves, but we don't want to do that, and charlatans don't know how to do it." Jade Fu glanced up at the three Yin Spirits and found that the resentment had begun to dissipate.
"I've always wondered why Taoism is a native sect, but today it is far less on a scale than foreign Buddhism." Zuo Dengfeng asked.
"The old man knows that they collect too much money...... Iron Shoes couldn't help but turn his head and shout when he heard this.
"Recite your scriptures well." Zuo Dengfeng frowned and interrupted him, the madman's attention was just not focused.
When Iron Shoes heard this, he remembered that he was still shouldering a task, and hurriedly turned his head to chant the scriptures, but he forgot where he was reading, and he was stunned for a moment and could only recite it again.
"Many people are speculating about this problem, in fact, only the authorities know the reason, there are two reasons, first, the people in the Taoist sect are cultivating in this life, we are very stingy with our own cultivation, generally will not help people, even if we help others, the remuneration will be very high, because we know how much we have paid, and the monks are asking for the next life, so they will be happy to help people, generally do not charge fees, even if they charge fees, there are very few, the second reason is that the real people in the Taoist sect are very arrogant, Generally, they will choose to be born and practice, and the real monks are more amiable and like to gather in large monasteries, the real people of Taoism are in the dark, and the high monks of Buddhism are in the light, and the world naturally only sees superficial phenomena. Yufu said with a sneer.
"Amitabha, Yu Zhenren's words are wrong." When Iron Shoes heard this, he couldn't help but open his mouth again.
Seeing this situation, Zuo Dengfeng could only pull the jade whisk out of the wooden house to avoid disturbing his normal chanting of the scriptures.
"These three female ghosts were all ** before they died." Leaving the room, Jade Fu pulled the conversation back, there were some things that she couldn't say before, and there were some things that she couldn't speak.
Zuo Dengfeng didn't speak immediately when he heard this, this house is located on the west side of the mountain village, far away from other houses, a lonely house, in addition to the fact that there is nothing in the house except a wooden bed, but the wooden bed is covered with red bedding, and the three female ghosts are all wearing bride's clothes before their deaths, many clues are mixed together to make the whole thing seem extremely weird.
"This is a matriarchal society, that is, women have the final say, and it is impossible for men to occupy so many women in such a place, so this house is not a place for a certain man to ravage women." Zuo Dengfeng frowned and analyzed.
"Yes, besides, the death time of these three female ghosts is very different, the northernmost one has been dead for more than ten years, and the middle one died last year, if it is a man, who dares to do bad things in the room where the dead have died." Jade Whisk nodded in agreement.
"What does it mean to do bad things?" Zuo Dengfeng asked knowingly with a wicked smile.
"You're not a good thing." Yu Fu said with a smile, she never thought that Zuo Dengfeng was not interested in women, she knew that Zuo Dengfeng had been enduring not betraying the dead.
"Could it be some kind of religious ceremony?" Zuo Dengfeng retracted his smile and spoke again, he knew very well that he couldn't tease a woman if he couldn't marry her, but he still couldn't help but want to joke.
"Religious ceremonies usually have ritual vessels and tribute tables, but there is nothing here, and it should not be." Jade Fu shook her head and said.
"Based on the weeds, you can see that this place is not very crowded, and the house has no windows, so it doesn't look like a place to live." Zuo Dengfeng stretched out his hand and pointed to the weeds that had dried up and said.
"It's not like a place to live, where the road leads." Jade Whisk turned to look at the forest path on the west side of the house.
"Look at it." Zuo Dengfeng called the thirteenth first, and the jade whisk followed.
Both sides of the path are dense woods, although the two can see at night, but do not like to walk in an unfamiliar environment, so after entering the forest, they pull up the treetops, on the tree to the west, twenty miles west, the two found that the path is leading to the river, the end of the path is a gentle beach located on the riverside, where a large number of gold sieves and stone troughs are placed, presumably the villagers pan for gold where the place is a place for gold panning.
Didn't find anything abnormal, the two returned to the room where they stayed, as soon as they entered the door, Zuo Dengfeng and Yufu were stunned, there were originally three hanged female ghosts in the house, but now only one is left on the north side, and the soul is already very dim.
"Don't read it, save a seed." Seeing this, Zuo Dengfeng hurriedly interrupted the chanting of the iron shoes, he had only asked him to eliminate the anger of the unjust souls, who would have thought that his work efficiency was so high, not only eliminated the anger of the unjust souls, but also sent them away.
"Master, it's hard work, you go out first." Yu Fuchong waved his hand at the stunned iron shoes.
Hearing this, Iron Shoes turned around and walked out with the wooden box of Zuo Dengfeng, and after a while, there was a sound of drinking outside.
"Is there anything else you can ask?" Zuo Dengfeng looked at the frowning jade whisk.
"The soul qi is too faint to open my mouth." Jade Fu shook her head and said.
"Forget it, it has nothing to do with us anyway." Zuo Dengfeng turned around and walked out, he was curious about this strange thing in the village, but that was all.
Walking out of the house, he found that Tie Shoe was drinking, and Zuo Dengfeng just wanted to snatch the wine bottle in his hand when he heard Yufu calling him.
"Come over and see what's going on with the wound." Yu Fu rushed into the house and beckoned to Zuo Dengfeng.
"It's dead, it's a woman, just look at it." Zuo Dengfeng frowned and turned around, at this moment Yufu had already placed the female ghost on the ground, checking its body transformed by soul qi, although the female ghost was invisible, through the Chenzhou spell, it could still restore its appearance before death, which could be seen and untouchable.
"Should there be such a big wound?" Jade Whisk turned her head and asked.
"What do you mean?" Zuo Dengfeng did not look back.
"Is there such a big wound down there?" Jade Whisk's voice was unnatural.
Zuo Dengfeng felt abnormal when he heard this, turned around and walked to the side of the jade whisk, and found that the jade whisk was extending the aura and lifted the clothes worn by the female ghost, because the jade whisk truly restored the situation before the female ghost died, so he could clearly see a large amount of blood stains on the female ghost's legs, tracing the source upwards, Zuo Dengfeng frowned suddenly.
"Is that how it should be?" Jade Whisk showed fear on her face.
"What should it be, the donkey doesn't make such a big hole." Zuo Dengfeng shook his head again and again, the wound on the female ghost's lower body was wider than a rice bowl, and the flesh and blood were blurred, even if it was just a phantom, it had already made Zuo Dengfeng feel extremely sick to his stomach.
"I don't think I should either, but she was indeed ** before she died, you look at these finger marks." Hearing this, Yufu let out a long breath, and instead stretched out his hand to point to the scar on the inner thigh of the female ghost.
"It's not a finger mark, it's a claw scratch." Zuo Dengfeng shook his head after looking at it and spoke, the human nails were flat, but the wound formed by the condensation of the female ghost's yin qi was sharp and slender.
"You mean." Jade Fu asked in amazement.
"It was indeed ** during its lifetime, but ** she may not be human......"
