Chapter Twenty-Three: The Bardo Body
Yan Nan and the others happened to meet Fang Lao in the tomb, and Yan Nan's master was Fang Lao's old time, so the two chatted naturally, and the fat man who felt the cold reception did not know whether he was alive or dead, interrupting the conversation between the two, causing Fang Lao to look at the fat man with a cold face, the fat man knew that he had done something he shouldn't do, and when he saw that the master was angry, he was so frightened that he was silent on the side, and he didn't dare to say a word casually.
Fang Lao glared at the fat man, and then said to the cigarette man with a smile: "The little apprentice is not sensible, don't be strange." Your master is still the same as when she was young, she still likes to play around, and she can't be idle. In the future, if you meet your master, help me bring her a message, and ask her to come to Beijing when she plays, I will treat her well, I haven't seen her all year round, and I miss her. β
After listening to the fat man, he smiled secretly in his heart, the master is a Taoist priest, and there are still people he misses! Could it be that the master and the female master of the smoke man had an unforgettable past? When the fat man was conjecturing, he couldn't help but smile on his face and betrayed him.
I heard Fang Lao shouting, "Fat baby", the fat man suddenly heard the master calling him, and couldn't help but tremble with fright, and asked with a little weakness: "What's the matter, Master?" β
Elder Fang didn't want to reprimand the fat man, but opened his mouth and said, "Yue'er."
Hearing the master mention Yue'er, the fat man hurriedly pushed aside the person beside him and led Elder Fang to Yue'er, who was lying on the ground.
Fang Lao looked at Yue'er, who was sleeping quietly like a baby, he couldn't help frowning, squatted down and put his hand on Yue'er's wrist, and pondered for a long time before asking, "When you found her, was she like sleeping like she is now?" β
The fat man nodded with a sad expression, and Fang Lao looked at the smoke man and said, "Dian Po is a master witch doctor, you should have learned a lot of skills from her, can you see what is going on with Yue'er?" β
The smoke man hesitated, first nodded, and then shook his head, looking very embarrassed, as if it was very difficult to speak.
Seeing this, Elder Fang smiled and said: "Your master has been my friend for many years, you should also hear your master mention me, it stands to reason that you should call me uncle, they are all your own people, you don't have to hide what you have to say, come and listen to it boldly." β
The smoke man glanced at the fat man with some hesitation, and then said: "I don't think Yue'er's situation is like a lost soul, and the lost soul will be in a state of being in a daze, and it won't be like this and sleep quietly all the time." I checked that there are no black lines in Yue'er's eyes just now, which means that she is not poisoned, then there is only one last possibility, she is "evil". But as for what kind of evil art Yue'er fell into, I can't say for sure. After speaking, the smoke man pulled over the third brother who was standing on the side, and introduced to Fang Lao: "This is my worship brother and third brother, he knows some ancient witchcraft, or let him talk about his thoughts." β
The third brother was pushed out by his eldest brother defenselessly, and suddenly became very shy, looking at Fang Lao with some embarrassment, Fang Lao looked at the third child with a smile and said, "It's really rare for such a young guy to understand ancient witchcraft." Don't be nervous, talk about what you think. When the third child heard Fang Lao praise him, the whole person was fluttering, and he glared at the fat man with special disgust, and said in his heart: See, your master has more vision than you, and he was kind enough to tell you, but you still don't believe it.
The fat man looked at the third child's mocking eyes in his eyes, and just wanted to have a seizure, when he saw the master looking at the third child approvingly beside him, he hurriedly closed his newly opened mouth, and stayed aside honestly, not daring to say anything.
The third child raised his chin proudly and said, "I have always suspected that Yue'er may be a "bardo body", that is, there is another thing in her body, competing with her for the body. As for what it is, I can't do a detailed examination in the current situation, although I have some signs in mind, but I'm not sure which one of them is? β
Before the fat man could speak, the monkey who had been standing on the side and listening attentively to the conversation could be regarded as having found an opportunity to interject, and immediately answered quickly: "What are the types?" β
The third child glanced at the monkey, and then said, "Yue'er must be a person who practices martial arts, so she has strong willpower, and she has not been able to let another thing in her body succeed." After speaking, the third child looked sideways at Yue'er lying on the ground.
The fat man saw that the third child was halfway through his words, and shouted to the third child very unhappily: "Can you fart quickly, the words are always only half spoken, which makes people anxious to listen." You can't beat bamboo poles in the city gate hole, and go straight to finish the words neatly. β
The fat man scolded the third child excitedly, but Fang Lao coughed on the side, and the fat man immediately closed his mouth obediently, took a step back, and stood behind Fang Lao, not daring to open his mouth casually and talk nonsense.
Seeing the fat man's deflated appearance, the third child couldn't hide his snicker, and said with a gloating expression: "I'm just in love, what can you do to me?" After speaking, a pair of Danfeng eyes looked straight at the fat man, the fat man now dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, endured and endured, and his mouth full of steel teeth was about to be crushed.
Seeing this, the monkey hurriedly played a round next to him and said, "Little Third Master, tell us quickly, don't let everyone be in a hurry." β
The third child looked at Fang Lao, who had been smiling, and said "rude", and then began to say the guess in his heart. The third child is sure that Yue'er's condition is "bardo body", but there are many kinds of bardo body, such as "evil spirits entering the body", "secret knotting ghost fetus", and a certain spirit who has cultivated the "soul exchange technique", in order to invade the physical body, wants to occupy Yue'er's body, and invades Yue'er's body and does not come out.
The fat man didn't wait for the third child to finish speaking, his head shook like a rattle, and he shouted "impossible".
The monkey hurriedly pulled the fat man's sleeve on the side, and persuaded the fat man who was angry and his face was flushed: "Don't get excited, fat brother, let's listen to the third master finish talking first." β
The fat man completely ignored the monkey's persuasion, and scolded the monkey: "Talk about a fart, the ghost listened to him run the train with his mouth full of farts with a loop." He is even more exaggerated than the storyteller under the overpass, and the singing actor knocks on the copper basin, and he actually says this out of tune, do you believe it? β
After the fat man finished shouting excitedly, he turned his head and asked Elder Fang, "Master, is it possible for you to say what he said?" I think he's talking nonsense. Yue'er must have been affected by Yan ZΓ²ng because of the abnormal magnetic field here, and her brain waves were affected by YanzhΓ²ng, so she fell unconscious. We should get out of here quickly, as soon as we get out of here, Yue'er will wake up immediately, don't you say, Master? β
Fang Lao didn't expect the fat man to be able to say this, the usual fat man is full of "ghost theory", all unusual things are blamed on ghosts, today it is rare to be abnormal, using scientific theories for dialectic, which really surprised Fang Laoda, thinking in his heart The reason why the fat man can say such things is because he can't accept Yue'er's bizarre state and can't face reality for a while. If we continue to talk about it, will it make the fat man's love more excited and stimulated, and whether we should stop the topic here?
Seeing Fang Lao's pensive expression, the fat man walked straight to Yue'er's side, twisted the lid of the kettle, and fed water into Yue'er's mouth.
The third child's idea was interrupted by the fat man before he finished speaking, and he leaned against the wall boringly and fanned the wind with a handkerchief. The monkey stood uneasily to the side, a pair of small eyes wandering between the crowd in embarrassment. At this time, Fang Lao took out a few yellow talismans from his pocket and pasted them on Yue'er's forehead, chest, and abdomen. However, Yue'er still didn't react at all, and lay quietly on the ground, as if she was going to sleep for thousands of years. Seeing this, Elder Fang couldn't help but sigh, put away the yellow talisman, and said to the fat man, "Carry Yue'er on your back, let's go." β
When the fat man heard the master say it, he immediately came to his senses, quickly put on his burden, and then picked up Yue'er and followed the master to the turn in front of him.
As Fang Lao walked, he said to the fat man: "This time I went to the tomb to rescue Yue'er, Sven also came, the Gu poison on his body has not been completely cleaned, and he dragged his sick body to follow, no matter how he persuaded him, it was because he was too worried about the safety of you and Yue'er, and he was also very self-blaming in his heart, and his thoughts were a little sharp." β
Before the fat man could answer, the monkey behind heard Elder Fang's words, and immediately interjected: "My brother Wen is also here, why didn't you see him?" β
The fat man glanced at the monkey disdainfully and said, "That's my own brother, what do you call this hot?" β
The monkey immediately grinned and said, "You and Brother Wen are both my brothers, and it's normal to care about it!" Fat brother, why are you jealous? β
When the fat man heard the monkey's words, he first took a sip, and then said, "You girl, less smelly and beautiful." Then he turned his head and began to babble and said: "Fake Sven is usually as weak as a green onion, and the Gu poison has not been cleared yet, so he dares to fight, and he is not afraid of fainting in a corner and turning into a pile of skeletons." I think he's definitely hot-headed, and he just ran in and made a mess out of the heat of the moment. β
The monkey smiled beside him, laughing and muttering to the fat man: "I know you are worried about Brother Wen, you are really hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, who doesn't know that you two are brothers who have died." β
The fat man didn't answer, he was really worried, and hurriedly asked Fang Lao again: "Master, why isn't Fake Sven with you?" β
Fang Lao replied: "When I came down, something went wrong, they were still on the ground at that time, and it is estimated that they couldn't wait to go down to the bucket at this time. β
When the fat man heard this, he immediately said worriedly: "Then we have to go out and join him quickly, I'm worried that his body won't be able to hold up." After saying that, he immediately quickened the pace of progress.
After a few words, in the blink of an eye they had reached the end of the passage, when they saw a black hole in the earthen wall in front of them, just enough to barely allow one person to crawl through GuΓ². The fat man walked up to the earthen wall and looked closer, and then asked Elder Fang, "Master, can I get out from here?" β
Fang Lao nodded, and the fat man immediately began to measure the size of the hole with his hands, estimating whether his huge body could pass through guΓ².
And just when the fat man reached out into the cave to grope, the cigarette man and Fang Lao, who were standing on the side, suddenly pulled everyone back a few steps at the same time, causing the unsuspecting fat man to almost fall, the fat man hurriedly stabilized his figure, stood firm in a panic, and asked uneasily: "What's wrong?" β
