Chapter 19: Sleepwalking (2)
Knowing this, I didn't dare to get too close to the bed again, for fear of dispersing the old man's soul.
After thinking about it, I thought that the reason why the old man was sleepwalking might be related to the evil that had been pestering him for many years, and the old man must have remembered something, so I decided to go out and look for him.
As soon as I got outside, I saw a dark figure in the alley in the distance rushing towards me, and I hurriedly held my breath and stood against the wall. When he was close, he could vaguely identify the old man in his dimness.
Nearly sixty years old and paralyzed for many years, he walked like a gust of wind at the moment, and at the same time exuded an eerie ghostly aura. I went back to the old house before him, and as soon as I was able to gain my footing, the old man walked in.
Looking through the light, I saw that his pajamas were stained with a lot of muddy water, his body was stiff, his eyes were dull, and he looked like a corpse crawling out of a grave, which was particularly terrifying.
The old man jumped into the bed and then didn't move. When he woke up the next day, the old man had regained his original appearance, but he looked more haggard and weak. I tried to ask him again, but I couldn't understand a word of it.
I didn't dare to tell them what happened last night, I only said that the old man had it?? They only said that the muddy water on the old man's body was caused by him waking up in the middle of the night last night, and I carried him out to relieve him and accidentally slipped and got wet. I felt that the old man would still sleepwalk at night, and decided to stay, and then follow him to see where he would go. I called Xiangfeng and asked him to help me.
Hearing that Xiang Feng was coming, Xiaoqing was as happy as if she was something, and I had no doubt that if she hadn't gotten married, she would have been crazy and would have fallen Xiang Feng.
That night, we broke everyone apart, and there were only me, Xiang Feng, and the old man in the old house. When it was nearly twelve o'clock, Xiaoqing ran in again, saying that she was sending us supper, but in fact, she wanted to take the opportunity to approach Xiangfeng. I scolded him and threw him out, saying that if he didn't want the old man to die, he would go to sleep immediately, and he wouldn't come out no matter what he heard. Xiaoqing and Miss Bai are like fire and ice, I don't know how they became best friends.
The continuous spring rain has been falling for two days in a row, and the rain breath is inhaled into the lungs, and it seems that the whole person is also getting wet.
Listening to the intermittent sound of rain outside, Xiang Feng and I silently stayed by the old man's bedside, waiting quietly.
Time passed minute by minute, and seeing that it was nearly one o'clock, the old man did not move at all, lying on the bed, his chest falling asleep together.
If I had done it before, I might have been impatient and restless. Now, learning Fangshu can not only make people have ordinary skills, but also enable people to see through the essence of many things, and become mature and stable.
Master deliberately wanted us to experience more things and hone a little more, so he didn't come along, even though what we were dealing with this time was not ordinary. What kind of evil the old man is rushing for, none of us know now. The more unknown something is, the more likely it is to be disturbing and frightening.
"Wait a minute, you're staying here and guarding the old man's soul." Xiang Feng whispered, "With a physique like his, he will become weaker every time he sleepwalks, and it is easy to lose his soul." ”
"It's better for me to go out, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on, your skills are better than mine."
Xiang Feng and I both know that staying in the old house does not have to face unknown dangers, and it is relatively safer. What's more, we have been learning from Master for so long, and the more dangerous and exciting things are, the more we want to come out and try our skills.
Xiang Feng looked at me, smiled faintly, and was about to speak, but I stopped him.
"If I were a woman, I wouldn't be able to resist the charm of your smile." I jokingly said, "People say that the male protagonist is outside the female protagonist, if I stay, I will become a woman, and I don't want to fall in love with you." So you should stay, and you will fulfill me. ”
In terms of eloquence, Xiang Feng is not my opponent, so he smiled and didn't say anything.
"yes, so that's right..."
"Shhhh
I clenched my fists secretly, and my muscles tensed.
The old man didn't even blink his eyes, staring vacantly upward. After about a minute, he slowly sat up.
The way he sat up felt as if there was a spring behind him, slowly propping him up.
"Ah Leng."
"Huh?"
"Wait a minute, be careful."
"Hmm." My heart warmed and I nodded.
At this time, I saw the old man leap from the bed to the ground, and if he was a timid person, he might be frightened and fainted by his deceitful jump.
As the old man 'Tengteng' went out, I followed closely and walked outside.
It was still raining, but it was light and the air was very cold. I followed the old man unhurriedly, all the way through the streets and alleys, and soon left the county seat, and the old man had no sign of stopping.
Looking at his emaciated, ghostly back, I kept sweating in my palms.
As I walked further and further afield, I followed him over the wheat fields, over the ditches, and into a dense forest. The forest was very large, and there were no less than 100 trees. As soon as I walked in, I felt an eerie aura, and there was a thick layer of dead branches and leaves under my feet.
It was dark in the woods, and my eyes widened and I could barely see the old man. For fear of alarming him, I didn't dare to turn on the flashlight, and even my steps were very light. If you wake him up, he'll die right away.
The rain hit the leaves, and the forest was filled with a rustling sound of spring silkworms, and from time to time the rain fell into my neck, cold and cold.
I followed the old man through the woods, walking and walking, and suddenly the old man disappeared. I gritted my teeth and turned on the flashlight, and when I shone it, it turned out that the old man was lying on the ground, sniffing while crawling, and from time to time he was pulling something with his hands, which looked like a dog.
My first reaction was, what was he looking for, could it be that evil was buried in this forest?
The old man rummaged in the forest for a long time, but finally found nothing. He jumped up and hurried out of the woods.
At the time, I thought that the evil we had been looking for might be in that forest. Therefore, I did not go back with the old man. I stood there, feeling a little excited. As long as there is something hidden in the woods, I can find it.
Some time ago, Xiang Feng and I hid and searched, and we had practiced to the point where we could find a matchbox in the dense forest with only one cup of tea.
Usually using Qimen to find things, relying on the start, such as taking Shi Gan as the thing to find, and judging the direction of that thing through the fall of Shi Gan in the guò bureau image. Then take the day stem as the person who is looking for something, that is, himself, measure the distance between the day stem and the time dry, and calculate how far away the thing you are looking for is from yourself... There are other ways to do this, and so on.
At the beginning, you can only find out what is above the ground, and as for what is buried in the ground, you have to rely on the magic gate. The so-called 'buried in the ground' is a way to 'hide' in Qimen.
I took out my phone and looked at the date and time, and I figured out that if I wanted to find something 'hidden' at this point in time, I needed to use the 'Ding Mao Fu'. 'Ding Mao Fu' is one of the 'Six Ding Liujia Divine Runes', and I have it in my bag. When you use Faqi Gate to find things, you rely on divine help.
I walked to the edge of the forest, burned a 'Ding Mao Talisman', and while silently reciting the 'Jade Maiden's Anti-Closure Technique' that the gods used, I contemplated the messages transmitted to me by various things buried in the forest with the help of the gods, which was a spell similar to the passage of the wall, but by telepathy, not by the eyes. This kind of spell must have a certain foundation in magic before it can be practiced.
Through guò perception, I now have no other debris except for dead branches and fallen leaves buried in this wood, and it seems that few people come here. In this way, I sensed as I walked, and when I had reached twenty or so steps, I suddenly sensed that about fifteen paces to the upper left of me, there was something of a metallic nature.
I opened my eyes, identified the location, and counted them step by step until I came to the bottom of a tree. When I shone it with a flashlight, I saw that it was a stout locust tree, and that thing should be buried under this tree.
My heart was pounding, and the old man's stroke might have something to do with something buried under the tree.
I didn't dare to be careless, so I took out the Seven Star Sword and put it aside, then took out a shovel from my bag and dug it up carefully. There was a thick layer of fallen leaves under the tree, and when I dug it up, I could smell the smell of mold and rot.
I dug more than a foot deep before I dug up the soil, which was sticky and fishy, and I dug down more than half a meter deep.
I wiped the sweat from my head and cleared the floating soil, revealing a boxy iron box, about a foot square. It took me a lot of effort to pry the box out, and after weighing it, I thought it was very light. I shook it, but it didn't make any noise, and it seemed like there was nothing in it.
The box was covered with rust, and I even scraped and pried it until it was dark, and then I pried it open. I saw a small cloth bag lying in the box.
The cloth bag is smooth and delicate to the touch, and it feels like it should be made of silk. I used a lighter to boil the rope that bound the cloth bag, and with a flick of it, a folded square piece of paper fell out of the bag.
When I opened it, I saw that the paper was full of strange words. I put the paper in front of my face, and suddenly I thought I had seen these words somewhere. After careful discernment, I was shocked. Because these words are exactly the same as the words engraved on the 'wooden gossip' dug up in the ancestral grave of Xiaoqing's family. Master said that it was a 'mantra'.
By this time, it was already dawn, and the morning light shone on the paper through the gap in the trees, and suddenly I still had something written on the back of the paper.
Turning it over, I saw eight characters, two by two, a combination of twos, a closer look, it turned out to be the old man's birthday eight characters!
At this time, I already realized that the old man was not an evil man who accidentally collided with him, but man-made. Thinking of this, I turned the box upside down and buckled it to the ground, and when I opened the box, I saw that there were several heads on the ground.
When the disaster is predicted in advance, take a lock of the person's head, and attach a piece of paper with his birth date and incantation. Using the method of Qimen to choose the auspicious time and auspicious position, and burying the head and paper there, can help it avoid disasters.
However, if the incantation is not chosen correctly, or the burial place is not auspicious, not only can it not be auspicious, but it will be more vicious.
The forest in front of me is not a good place in terms of geographical location and feng shui, and besides, this box is buried under the shade wood like the locust tree, and there is such a spell on paper...
I was cold all over my body, this should be the reason why the old man would 'rush', who hurt him like this?
