Chapter 7: Burning Grievances
As soon as I saw that things were not good, I quickly ran back to Zhou's house to find Zhang Mi, who was meditating in the house, and when I saw him, I told him about it, and he immediately ran out with me.
Zhang Mi said a little anxiously: "Go back to the room quickly!" If you are angry, you will be in trouble! The two of us grabbed him by the waist and got him back to the room, and Zhou Yaxiao and Old Man Zhou also heard the movement and ran over.
Sitting on his back in a chair, he was speechless in pain, and when we talked to him, he shook his head except nodding. The fingers he had touched the alcohol were completely bloodless and had begun to swell.
Zhang Mi opened the black piano box, took out a dagger from it, handed the dagger to me, and whispered to me to stand in front of his waist with the dagger and tell him to close his eyes. I nodded and said yes.
After the waist closed his eyes, I saw Zhang Mi detour behind the waist and knocked the waist unconscious. Then he took the dagger from my hand and asked me and Zhou Yaxiao to hold on to my waist.
He then used the dagger to cut the bloodless fingers on his waist at once, and then a stream of black blood flowed out of the fingers, Zhang Mi was still pinching his waist to get his fingers, the black blood flowed out for about five or six seconds and then stopped flowing out, although his waist had been knocked out by Zhang Mi, but he kept dripping cold sweat on his head, until Zhang Mi attached medicine to his waist and said that it was okay, we breathed a sigh of relief.
Old Man Zhou asked what was wrong with his waist, what was that hand!
I told him that the waist is nothing serious, but the things in this well are so fierce, if it's okay, you should try not to go out, and we will solve it as soon as possible!
Old Man Zhou replied, "We won't cause you trouble, don't worry!" But you have to be more careful, that Daoist Zhang will ask you! ”
Zhang Mi said: "Uncle Zhou, go back first!" I can't do anything here, by the way, I have to trouble Miss Zhou, although the resentment of the waist has been released, but now the body is very weak, so you stew that old hen and make up for him! Zhang Mi said as he took out a pill from his pocket, "By the way, just put this pill in the chicken soup!" ”。
Zhou Yaxiao blinked and said, "I've really found the right person for this matter, I'll do it." ”
Zhou Yaxiao took the pill and followed Old Man Zhou out. Lying on the bed, his face was a little pale, and the color of his lips was unnatural, so I asked Zhang Mi: "When will he wake up!" ”。
Zhang Mi said: "A day or two".
I asked with some confusion, "Why is the resentment so strong, it's just like that!" ”。
Zhang Mi said, "The resentment is actually not like this, it is the array that I set up that gathered the resentment, but it is a little strange? How can there be so much resentment in this well! It seems that this thing inside is not easy to deal with! ”。
I said, "Do we have a good chance of winning?" ”
Zhang Mi said lightly, "We will definitely lose in the well, and we may be a little more sure of winning outside the well!" ”
suddenly thought of the scene when I went down the well to save Zhou Yaxiao that day, the black-haired skeleton didn't have much ability at all, and I almost broke it up! How can there be a sudden resentment!
I went on to say, "Alas! That's not right! I clearly remember that day, I, Zhou Ya and Xiao Waist all went into the well, and Waist kicked its head off, it can't be very powerful! Otherwise, Zhou Yaxiao and I would have reported it a long time ago! ”
Zhang Yi frowned and said, "I don't know much about this matter, anyway, judging from these grievances, the things in the well are not a good fork, it's better to be careful!" ”
I asked Zhang Mi, "Then what are you going to do?" How can I help you! ”
Zhang Mi replied, "I need a bait, lure it out, and give it to me." ”
When I heard the word bait, I was involuntarily a little scared, and I said in a hurry, "I don't want to die if I go down the well, I finally escaped from death and crawled out of it!" ”
But Zhang Mi said to me very calmly: "You'll be fine!" ”…… After dinner, Zhang Mi and I began to prepare for tomorrow's hard fight, and I wanted to be the bait to lure out the water ghost under the well, Zhang Mi for my safety, painted 'yin and yang charms' on my chest and back.
He said that with this yin and yang rune, the water ghost will not be able to get on my body, and the yin and yang runes can also suppress the heavenly fire above the head to open the yin eye, and you can see the ghost clearly.
However, because I have never cultivated the Tao, there is no such thing as true qi or yang qi in my body, so this yin and yang talisman does not have any attack and defense power on me, but Zhang Mi is worried that the water ghost will attack me, so he also placed the 'same shadow spell' on me, this spell is like inviting immortals into the body, which means that I will become as powerful as Zhang Mi in a short period of time.
In this way, I don't have to worry about the water ghost hurting me, it's a big deal to escape from the well, if I can't get out of the well, he will come down to save me. And what I have to do is very simple: just show your face under the well and lure the water ghosts out of the well.
Zhang Mi said that the water ghost failed to kill me last time, and he will definitely not let go when he sees me again this time, so the water ghost will definitely be fooled and run out with me, so that I don't have to be afraid that he is on the edge of the well! Then he told me to go to rest and sit on my bed and meditate with my eyes closed.
Maybe I was a little tired, and as soon as I lay down on the bed, I fell asleep without even taking off my clothes. After sleeping for a while, I was awakened by the sound of Zhang Mi's footsteps, and I asked him, "Do you want to go to the toilet?" He didn't respond to me, but quickly covered my mouth with his hand and shhhed at me.
Then he whispered to me, "Don't speak!" He pointed with his other hand to the large bookshelf on the east wall, motioning for me to look there.
I didn't know what was going on, I was a little panicked, I was afraid that there would be some ghosts again, but seeing that Zhang Mi was very calm, I didn't care so much, so I slowly turned my head and looked at the place where Zhang Mi was pointing.
I rubbed my eyes and looked closely, as if in the corner of the bookshelf, there was a faint blue glow that appeared from time to time, which was really not easy to detect at night!
I wanted to ask Zhang Mi what this thing was, why it still glowed blue, and as soon as I wanted to speak, Zhang Mi rushed out from me, and when I looked at him, he was already half-squatting on the wooden bookshelf of more than two meters.
Zhang Mi first pulled out a few books that were in the way, and then he reached behind the bookshelf, fumbled for a few moments, and then he came down with something.
When I turned on the light, I saw Zhang Mi holding a small wooden rectangular box in his hand, and it was very delicately made, with a few purple talismans pasted on it.
I asked Zhang Mi strangely: "What is this!" Still with a charm!? ”
Zhang Mi put the small rectangular box on the table, rubbed it a few times, then shook his head and said, "I don't know what this thing is?" But looking at the purple talisman pasted on it, there seems to be something sealed in this small box? ”,
I said, "It can't be a ghost, right?" ”
Zhang Mi said: "No, this box just now emitted a blue light, not yin qi, nor resentment, so there should not be a ghost in this!" Then again, since you're not a ghost, why use a purple talisman? The Purple Command Talisman is used to seal evil spirits! Isn't that contradictory! ”
I don't seem to understand Zhang Mi's words: "Since there are no ghosts in the box, let's just open it and take a look!" ”
Zhang Mi hesitated for a moment and nodded. Tear off the purple talisman, the box was slowly opened by Zhang Mi, and the contents also appeared in front of him, and there was a piece of 'jade' in the box! This piece of jade is translucent milky white, and at a glance, the blue light is shining, warm and delicate, like a Nuwa heavenly stone. Even I, who don't know how to do it, can see that it's a good thing!
However, this piece of jade seems to have fallen from a complete jade pendant, it is about a quarter of a broken jade piece, because its integrity is not very high, so I can't see what is carved on it, but I can see that it has been carved with something that has always looked like a ghost hand, and there are many, many small patterns next to the ghost hand, like a cloud and a bit like a flower, take a closer look, the pattern is actually carved out of hundreds of evil ghosts!
I was a little surprised and said to Zhang Mi, "Do you know what this thing is?" ”
Zhang Mi looked at it a few times and said, "Although I don't know what this thing is, I find this thing very interesting!" ”
I scratched my head and said, "What do you mean?" ”
Zhang Mi said: "I found that this piece of jade can suck out the yin qi around us!" And from this piece of jade, it seems that its state has been very stable, and it is a treasure to avoid evil! ”
I said, "Then in that case, how can there still be water ghosts in the Zhou family?" ”
Zhang Mi replied: "Maybe it's because it's been sealed in a box!" ”……
After looking at the white jade carved with the ghost's claws, we put it back behind the worn-out bookshelf. There are also a lot of questions in my heart, what is this white jade? Why are there so many evil spirits carved on it? What does that mean? What is it used for? Treasure or evil? Who sealed it up? Why put it there? ……
In a blink of an eye, the next morning, when I woke up, my waist was already awake, and he drank several large bowls of chicken soup at breakfast, and Zhang Mi and I ate something casually. The waist is not in good health, so the water ghost will not let him join in the fun, just have me and Zhang Mi.
Zhang Mi was carrying his black guitar case, and because I was going to open the altar, I carried a small folding table and a few kinds of fruits in my hand. The two of us came to the vicinity of the well, one after the other.
Before the things in his hand were put down, Zhang Mi hurriedly came to the front of yesterday's cloth, and I hurriedly followed. The small flame on the head of the goldfish is still burning, but the little goldfish is floating on the alcohol and dying, and the tofu below has turned black, Zhang Mi escaped a yellow charm in his pocket, ignited and threw it on the little goldfish, and in an instant a flame surged, bursts of black smoke came out, but it was strange that the flame did not produce heat, but a stream of cold air.
I asked Zhang Mi, "This, why is this fire cold!?" ”
Zhang Mi looked at me and said, "This is not fire, in our words, this is called 'burning resentment'!" ”
Then we began to set up the altar, set the table open, spread a yellow cloth, put the incense burner, white wax, offerings, Zhang Mi took out a dozen yellow charms from the piano box, and put the bowl, copper coin sword, gossip mirror and other items on the offering table, in case of emergency.
He bit his fingers again, dripping blood on the center of my eyebrows, and then pointed his fingers firmly at the center of my eyebrows and said, "Use the blood to raise the blood, one finger is the order, the charm is sluggish, '勅'." ”
After that, I felt a hot current radiate from the center of my eyebrows to all parts of my body in an instant, and this feeling was like swallowing a sip of liquor, and after I took a few deep breaths as Zhang Mi instructed, it was much better.
Before going down the well, he told me not to anger the water ghosts in the well, just lure it out of the well, and if you really get entangled with the water ghosts below, find a chance to come out quickly! If it doesn't work, send him a signal, and he'll go down the well to save me. I made an OK gesture to Zhang Mi, put on my goggles and jumped down the well......
