Chapter Fifty-Seven: Hatred is as deep as the sea
It wasn't until dusk that Lin Qi slowly woke up, he felt dizzy, his whole body was weak, and it was twice as uncomfortable as yesterday, Zhou Xing saw that his little face was pale, and he was also distressed, so he washed him with some incense ash to worship the gods and drank it, Lin Qi's face was a little bloody, even so, his whole body was soft, and he didn't have any strength.
Lin Qi originally thought that he would go tonight, but Zhou Xing didn't agree, Lin Qi was still too young, and the loss of the soul out of the body was the essence and spirit, and two days in a row was already the limit, if he went again, he would not be tired, the light one would be three or five years, and the heavy one might be the consequence of a deep sleep and wandering.
Lin Qi didn't twist the master after all, helped him set up the altar, lit incense, lit the candle, Zhou Xing said to him: "Apprentice, you remember, you must keep the candle flame, our master and apprentice are not advanced in Taoism, the ghost out of the body is as light as a smoke, it all depends on this fixed fire to stabilize, if it is extinguished, it is blown by the yin wind, but the soul is scattered, and it will never come back." ”
Lin Qi nodded, secretly surprised, he didn't expect the white candle at the head of the bed to be so important, no wonder the master had been guarding it, he turned his head to look outside the house, it was light tonight, but the door was always open, and he didn't know if it would be windy, so he asked worriedly: "Master, can I close the door?" ”
"Of course you can, every time you go out of your body, you can't see the door when you come back, it's actually closed."
Hearing that the door could be closed, Lin Qi was full of confidence and said, "Don't worry, master, even if I die, I won't let the candle go out." ”
"What a dead thing, a living thing, such a bad luck. Phew! Zhou Xing snorted twice, suddenly fell silent, and said in a deep voice: "Qi'er, if you can't come back for your teacher, you don't have to worry about anything, go to the prison and rob your senior brother out, just go to Longhu Mountain, the real person in charge of the sect will pity you, and he won't drive you out, but after this, it's up to you, your senior brother is stupid, you have to take care of him more." ”
These words seemed to be explaining the aftermath, Lin Qi learned from the master and said: "Master, don't say something frustrating, my senior brother and I can't do without you, the evil Jiao has already hit two copper hairpins, master, you have a profound Taoism, in the end, this time you can't make a mistake, just go and go back quickly." ”
Zhou Xing smiled, holding the copper hairpin and lying on the bed, Lin Qi closed the door, carefully inspected the room again, and when he saw that there was a leak, he blocked it with rags, and lit the candle until there was no wind in the house, and recited the incantation like a master. After a while, Lin Qi felt that the room suddenly darkened, and the candle flame at the bedside was windless and automatic, swaying slightly, so frightened that Lin Qi hurriedly and carefully covered the surroundings with his hands, and only let go after it stabilized.
The small room was silent, except for the occasional crackle of the burning candles! The sound of a slight spark exploding, Lin Qi stared at the firelight, and after a while, he felt bored, his eyes looked at the flames, but his mind was cranky, thinking of Zhou Dianlai for a while, and thinking of the blue-faced man last night, carefully pondering the meaning of his words.
I felt that something was wrong with this pondering, listening to the meaning of the blue-faced man, it seemed that someone couldn't stand him first, and then he was angry and turned the waves...... But who could this person be? After thinking about it again, maybe the evil Jiao just wanted to confuse himself. After thinking about it for a while, I saw that the candle had only burned a little.
Waiting is the most tormenting, Lin Qi is worried about the master, so he just sits in a daze, and after a while, he listens to the door squeak...... Make a sound. Lin Qi turned his head in surprise and saw that the wooden door was windless and automatic, and it was moving very slowly, as if someone was gently pushing it with his hand.
Lin Qi looked out and couldn't see half a figure, there were only him and the master in the room, so how did this door open? Isn't there an evil ghost doing it? Thinking of this, Lin Qi didn't dare to be careless, carefully took out the talisman knife from his arms, and recited the incantation softly: "Heaven and earth are mighty, destroy the ghost thief." Six Bs help each other, and heaven praises. I believe in what I do, I can't attack it, and the old king is as anxious as the law! ”
After the incantation was recited, the golden light of the rune knife flashed, turning into a long knife, Lin Qi held it in his hand, cold sweat broke out on his head, and he secretly regretted it, why didn't he let the master help him open his eyes, and now there is no other way to do it, but to block the head of the bed with his body, block the burning candle, and hold the rune knife in his hand to secretly guard.
Strange to say, after he had recited the incantation, the door did not move, but the door was half open, and the cold wind outside the house blew in gently, still blowing the flame of the candle flickering. Lin Qi can block it for a while, but it can't stop it for too long, and the wind at night is the most irregular, maybe the wind is still light now, maybe the next time there will be a strong wind.
Lin Qi secretly complained, only felt helpless to the extreme, but such a stalemate is not a way, he looked around, there is nothing to block the wind, sad face, suddenly remembered an idea, he first put the long knife in his mouth, took off the gown on his body, opened his shirt with both hands, blocked the light wind blowing in from outside the door, and approached the wooden door little by little.
I have to say, this really works, the clothes are stretched out, and most of the wind blowing in is really blocked, Lin Qi cautiously retreated, and used his heel to test whether he reached the door, the room was so big, he retreated slowly, but it was only a matter of a few steps, and soon his right foot leaned back and slammed to the door.
Lin Qi was overjoyed, but he still didn't dare to be careless, he rubbed his back against the door and moved a little bit, until the door was closed, he was relieved, just like that, he was already sweating profusely, and he felt strange in his heart, why did this door open silently? But this will not be the time to be cranky, he turned around, found a wooden stick in the house, smashed the door, clapped his hands and felt that the wind could not blow open, and before he could turn around, a dark voice came from his ears: "Lin Chongjiu, do you still recognize me?" ”
The voice came from the head of the bed, Lin Qi was startled, hurriedly turned around, and saw a man with a black face standing at the head of the bed, sneering at him, a deep scar on his face, across the whole face, this smile, the big scar was slightly upturned, like a face was divided into two halves, and it seemed like there was a big mouth smiling.
This person is not someone else, but the black-faced man he met at the door of Lin Qi's house a few months ago, Lin Qi raised his long knife and shouted, "What are you going to do?" ”
Lin Qi is also related to this black-faced man, it was he who instructed Lin Qi to bury his parents, but after thinking about it, Lin Qi felt that something was wrong...... No matter which one can cure him to death, since the black-faced man knows about the mass grave in Abduction River Village, it is impossible not to know that there are these things, since he knows that there are these insidious things, but he doesn't even mention them, what kind of kindness can An have?
Lin Qi knew that this black-faced man was uneasy and kind to him, but he couldn't help it, first, he didn't know who this black-faced man was, and second, he was also weak, even if he knew, what could he do?
But he didn't expect that at this critical moment, the black-faced man appeared again, obviously the person who came was not good, Lin Qi secretly screamed that it was not good, and when he asked, he slowly approached the black-faced man.
The black-faced man laughed, looking a little crazy, Lin Qi calmed down and said to the black-faced man: "This uncle, a few days ago, you helped my parents find a burial place, and I didn't have time to thank you urgently, how did you find here?" But I'm also a little wealthy now, and I can still take out one hundred and eighty taels of silver, and I just gave it to you, thank you for your kindness in helping at the beginning. ”
Lin Qi procrastinated to speak, but his feet approached the black-faced man little by little, he was really nervous to the extreme, for fear that he would accidentally touch the candle, the black-faced man laughed for a while, suddenly stopped whispering, looked at him with a sneer, and said: "You kid is a shrewd person, at this time, you still want to delay me, could it be that I don't know what this candle at the bedside is for?" ”
Lin Qi's heart sank, but he said with a sigh: "What did the uncle say?" Why don't I understand, come? Uncle, you lean closer to me, you helped me a lot before, why do you have to kowtow to you......"
The black-faced man smiled gloomily: "Lin Chongjiu, you don't have to waste your time, you see." As he spoke, he bent down, pouted and blew at the candle, Lin Qi screamed, stepped forward, raised his knife and slashed at the black-faced man, this time it can't be said to be unhappy, but after all, it was still not faster than the black-faced man, I saw him blow gently, and the candle flame was crooked, poof! was extinguished, leaving only a wisp of white smoke floating upward.
Lin Qi was terrified, he just wanted to kill the black-faced man with a knife, but when he thought that the long knife fell, he actually split into the air, and then saw that the black-faced man arrived at the door, gently opened the door, and laughed wildly in his mouth, which was extraordinarily proud.
Lin Qi didn't care about trouble, and hurriedly went to find a fire fold to light a candle, but his hands trembled violently, and he muttered vigorously in his heart: "The gods and Buddhas of the heavens bless the master to be fine, and the gods and Buddhas of the heavens bless the master to be fine...... trembling and lit the candles, his body was empty and there was no trace of strength, he sat down on the ground, turned his head to look at the black-faced man, and asked in a deep voice: "Who are you, why do you always calculate me?" What enmity do I have against you? ”
Blackface listened to his deep question, laughed wildly, and said to him: "You and I are as deep as the sea, I don't count you, what should I count about that?". ”
When Lin Qi heard the words Qiu Shen like the sea, he couldn't bear it anymore, raised his knife and ran over, shouting loudly: "Thief man and woman, Lao Tzu fought with you!" The long knife was chopped down indiscriminately, but there was only the smug laughter of the black-faced man in his ears, but he disappeared, and the voice of the black-faced man was heard from far and near: "The old man has been waiting for more than ten years, and now he finally got what he wanted, Lin Chongjiu, when you die, the Lin family will be extinct, and my revenge will be avenged, you and I are as deep as the sea, I want to know, go down and ask your dead ghost father, hahaha......"
The laughter was crazy, and it gradually faded away, Lin Qi's knees weakened, and he sat on the ground heavily, his little face was pale, and he looked at the white candle that had been re-lit blankly.
