Chapter 45: Straw Man
"I, I'm not going." Brass Lock said.
Li Yang said: "How can you not go. If Qin Dan comes, our foursome will attack again, and the success rate will be even greater. I have a hunch that this rescue of my aunt and master will not be smooth sailing. ”
During the copper lock-up period, Ai Ai said: "I'm afraid that my family will not let me ......."
I can see that the copper lock is actually very curious, very hesitant, heaven and man are at war, and I want to go but I'm afraid that his girlfriend will complain. I patted him: "You just have to call and say no." She wants to love you and will understand you. ”
The copper lock took out the phone and dialed it to his girlfriend, and when he connected it, he saw me and Li Yang staring at him, he covered the phone with his hand and ran to the toilet to call, for fear that we would hear it.
Li Yang was angry: "How can this kid be like a thief when he has a girlfriend." When I'm done with this work, I'll free my hands, and I'll fiddle with this Ning Ning. ”
"You don't talk nonsense." I wasn't angry: "Hurry up and call Qin Dan and ask her to come over." ”
After a short time, the copper lock came out of the toilet, and his face was a little ugly: "My family Ningning didn't agree at first, I said that there was nothing wrong with it, and there would be no danger......"
"You didn't tell Wang Dongmei and Hong Chen about it, did you?" Li Yang interrupted him.
Copper Lock: "I didn't say it, this story is too long, I can't tell a sentence or two on the phone, I'll tell Ning Ning when I have time." ”
"No way!" Li Yang shouted: "Don't tell your girlfriend anything that happens here!" Be careful with confidentiality. ”
"For what? There are no secrets between me and Ning Ning. Copperlock glared.
Li Yang's attitude was more relaxed: "Okay, even if you tell her, you have to wait until the matter is over." I'm just asking for this, can I agree to my brother? ”
Copper lock helplessly: "Okay, okay, I promise you that it is." ”
I know what Li Yang means, this Ning Ning's origin is unknown, her identity is weird, once Wang Dongmei became an immortal, once she knew Lu Dao, what evil consequences would be unimaginable. Wang Dongmei Hongchen's matter, let's listen to it as a story, but for people in the Tao, this may be a rare opportunity. Ginseng fruit is a poison that is not nutritious for ordinary people to eat, but for the gods, it is a great blessing.
I saw that Li Yang had a murderous aura on his face, and he obviously had a mind about Ning Ning, although this girl had not met, she had invisibly offended this evil star.
While chatting, Qin Dan came, and as soon as the girl entered the room, she covered her nose: "It stinks, it stinks, don't you sleep and don't wash your feet." ”
The three of us smiled awkwardly, tired all night like dead pigs, who would wash our feet. Especially the copper lock, the smelly feet, the salted fish are rotten, and they are about to catch up with the female stars. Li Yang and I have been in abalone for a long time, and we have not smelled its smell for a long time, and the nerves in our noses have been stimulated and numb. When Qin Dan first came, he was so smoked that his brain hurt. I said to the copper lock, "I remember you don't love to be clean, why do your feet stink so much?" ”
Copper lock smiled embarrassedly: "I don't know what's going on lately, my mouth stinks, my feet stink, my armpits stink, my crotch stinks, I can't wash it clean, and how many bottles of perfume have been spilled." ”
Qin Dan opened all the windows, and the smell dissipated slightly as the cold wind blew outside. Qin Dan asked Li Yang to find a mask to wear, and the copper lock scratched his head and smiled bitterly: "I said that as for you, you don't discriminate against people like this." ”
Qin Dan ignored him and asked Li Yang what was the matter.
Li Yang showed her the shroud, and then explained the whole thing in detail. Qin Dan listened very carefully, and frowned in amazement from time to time, and after listening, the sky was already dark. Li Yang coughed: "I came to you to do you a favor and save my aunt and master." Tiger poison doesn't eat children, Wang Dongmei is too vicious, and it is really against heaven and earth to put such a heavy hand on her daughter. ”
Qin Dan thought for a while and said, "Fortunately, you brought me here and didn't mess with it in private. It's a tricky and dangerous thing. Wang Dongmei's deployment of the Soul Relief Array will not be broken so easily, there must be a back-up move. ”
Li Yang said: "If you feel that you can't do it, forget it." You're my good sister, and I won't put you at risk. In fact, it is best to do this job with Ma Danlong, but our master Ma is a master, and Shenlong can't find anyone at all. ”
Qin Dan smiled: "It's okay, I know it in my heart." She stood up and thought about it with her hands behind her back and said, "It's not impossible to save Master Hongchen's soul, there is a way to ensure it." Actually, you've all seen this spell. ”
"What?" We asked.
Qin Dan said word by word: "The corpse has surrendered." ”
Li Yang and I gasped, the experience in the morgue that night was so unpleasant that we didn't want to reminisce. I swallowed and asked, "Will you surrender?" ”
Qin Dan smiled and shook his head: "Corpse surrender is a very mysterious demon art in Southeast Asia, I won't." But I've learned simple little methods before, which can attract souls into the body, much like corpse descent. Hong Chen's soul is now sealed in the body of the paper man, and in order to save her, the soul must be temporarily channeled into a kind of container and preserved, waiting for the day when she can regain her body. The corpse spell is to lure the soul into the corpse, and I don't have that advanced mana, so I have to replace it with something else. ”
"Then where do you want to lead the soul of your aunt and master?" Li Yang asked.
Qin Dan looked at me, and then at the copper lock. The copper lock was quite smart, and immediately woke up: "**, you don't want to lure Hong Chen's soul into our body, right?" ”
Qin Dan laughed: "Look at you scared." I'm going to lead here. ”
As she spoke, she opened her backpack and pulled out a tiny straw man. The grass man is made of artemisia grass, and the grass is very old, and the color of the grass is a little yellowish. The posture of the straw man is very similar to that used to repel birds in the rural fields, tied into a cross shape, with arms outstretched, legs closed, no facial features painted on the face, and an oval head.
Qin Dan's backpack can be called the pocket of a robot cat, and there are all the small objects in it, and there is actually such a straw man.
"Everything is ready, then let's go." Li Yang said: "Let's go to dinner first, I'll treat you." Eat a full meal, wait until midnight to enter the store, and save my aunt from fire and water. ”
When we went out, Li Yang patted his head: "I almost forgot something." He turned back and went into the house and took out the shroud. I had a headache when I saw it: "What are you doing with it?" Li Yang shrugged: "Be prepared." It's better to take more than less. ”
Copper Lock took out a turquoise jade from his neck and kissed it. Qin Dan glanced at it and asked hurriedly, "Where did this thing come from?" ”
"This is what my family Ningning gave me to defend myself. We're going to take a big risk tonight, and she told me to put it on. ”
Qin Dan said: "This is an ancient jade with years, it's best not to bring it." The artifact does not enter the room, and the ancient jade does not go up. If it's a sacrificial jade, I'm afraid it will be even more troublesome. ”
Copper Lock disagreed. I asked Qin Dan what a sacrificial jade was. Qin Dan said: "As the name suggests, the jade used for sacrifice is the one used by the ancients when they were buried. It is generally stuffed in the mouth and anus of the corpse, or hung on the body, absorbing a lot of corpse qi, which is very unlucky and very angry. If it is worn by a living person, the consequences are serious. ”
Copper lock smiled: "Xiao Dandan, don't be alarmist here. How could my family Ningning harm me? ”
Qin Dan wanted to say something, Li Yang secretly waved his hand and gave him a look. Looking at the back of the copper lock, Li Yang said: "Good words are hard to persuade damn ghosts. Let him first, and see how I clean him up in the future. ”
Li Yang invited guests, I slaughtered with copper locks, we went to Donglaishun to eat hot pot, and asked for a table full of beef and mutton. The copper lock was sweating all over his head, shouting that the mutton was aphrodisiac, and it was cool to eat.
After eating, I found another place to drink tea, and finally it was past eleven o'clock. We drove to the temple.
The temple was still the same as when we left in the early morning, deserted, and no one had ever visited. Also, this ghost place is too yin, cold and cold, anyone who passes by has to shiver, and pedestrians all avoid walking.
The copper lock unlocked, and the four of us slipped in. This time I had a goal, and I went straight to the house.
When I entered the house, the red-clothed paper man was still hanging there, the cold air on the ground was rolling, the room was as cold as frost, and the copper lock was trembling at the door and did not dare to enter. We didn't have the heart to take care of him, Li Yang asked Qin Dan how to get it.
Qin Dan looked at the black altar on the ground, and frowned: "This is the Hidden Soul Altar, it is very evil, and it is specially used for soul refining." When the soul goes inside, it will be refined. ”
Li Yang was furious, and he was about to kick the black jar when he went up, but Qin Dan hurriedly stopped him: "Part of Master Hongchen's soul has been captured, and if you kick it, it will be wiped out." Listen to my command, and now begin the Formation. ”
She opened her backpack and took out the props for the practice. I drew a big ghost-like pattern on the ground with chalk, and then instructed us to put a candle in the corner of the edge of the pattern and light it.
Then he put the straw man in the middle of the circle, took out seven old copper coins, and pinned them to the straw man's limbs and face one by one. The faint firelight, the dead silence, and the atmosphere seemed quite depressing.
Qin Dan took a stick of incense and lit it, emitting a faint white smoke, she turned the incense head upside down and shook back and forth on the strawman's body, it was strange to say, the white smoke did not float up, but sank, first wrapped the straw man, and then infiltrated into the gap of the artemisia grass little by little, as if it was absorbed by the straw man.
Qin Dan turned the incense over, the incense head was facing up, and slowly inserted it into the straw man's mouth. Her expression was very serious: "I'm going to chant the spell for a while, no matter what vision happens, you must remember not to panic, and don't touch anything in the house!" ”
