Chapter 9: Onmyoji, Soul Catcher
"Did you know that none of the people you went with yesterday went to school today?" Ren Tanyu and his grandfather did not directly answer Ren Tanyu's question, but pulled the topic to Ren Tianlan and them.
"What, what's wrong with them?" Ren Tanyu was really taken aback.
"Alas, isn't it the disaster that you broke into the morgue without permission, that place was rumored before, you are really bold, the three of them are now pale, with a high fever, and full of nonsense, their families think that they have hit the evil, this is not early in the morning the whole village is boiling, and I heard that the old man who watched the gate last night was also scared to death, I went there to see, I didn't expect this to be a day." Ren Tanyu's grandfather let out a sigh, as if he had unspeakable suffering.
"Didn't they go to school today?" Although he knew that he was asking nonsense, he still had to ask.
His grandfather shook his head helplessly and asked Ren Tanyu to go to the kitchen to eat, he had already made noodles. Then he went out into the yard alone to smoke.
At this moment, Ren Tanyu's heart is full of feelings, maybe he is the person who the Taoist priest said, so he can still move freely like a person who has nothing to do, but the three of them can't do it, aren't they all sick.
Ren Tanyu, who was eating noodles, had tears in his eyes, no, he made up his mind to go and see them, if it wasn't for himself, it was his good friend who had even affected him, and if he didn't go to see it, his conscience couldn't stand it.
"Little Devil, what are you doing!" After eating the noodles, Ren Tanyu took his Dream Soul Knife and wanted to sneak away, but he didn't expect to be discovered by his grandfather.
"I, I'd like to go see a few of them!" Ren Tanxiao said cautiously.
"Alas, I know your thoughts, as far as your current situation is concerned, it's useless to go and see it, I've already seen it for them, it's not a big deal, just cultivate for a few days, you don't have to worry about school affairs, I've already asked you for leave. Come here...... "Grandpa's dry tobacco pouch pot has been smoking for many years, but whenever something happens, he always keeps smoking, as if there is a lot of sorrow and wisdom for him.
Ren Tanyu didn't know what Grandpa Lu Dao wanted him to do, but at this moment, he had no choice but to walk over obediently.
It wasn't until Ren Tanyu stood from the evening until the moon rose high that Grandpa knocked out his pipe that never left him, and sighed as if he had made some major decision: "Well, I didn't want you to enter this way, but since you came in by mistake, this is also the will of heaven, the will of heaven is so, you should inherit my mantle!" ”
"What way, what bowl?" After listening to what grandpa said, Ren Tanyu was inexplicably wonderful, today I feel that grandpa is so strange, first disappeared for a day, and then let myself stand for hours, this time I said what kind of mantle, as if I wanted to explain the aftermath or something.
"I'm a soul catcher, and I'm also an onmyoji, in our countryside it's generally called the dancing god, in fact, we also have a heritage, now the world is down, the onmyoji is not very popular, I didn't want you to enter this way, because your parents ...... Alas, don't mention it! accidentally mentioned Ren Tanyu's parents again, and the old man couldn't help but look sad, and he didn't want to mention the sad past again.
The term Onmyoji or Soul Hunter has actually been heard of by Ren Tanyu, because he has watched a few ghost movies of Lin Da , so he already understands it without listening to too many introductions, and whenever he sees Lin Da Da on TV, he is envious when he holds Fu Zhen Ghost, but he didn't expect that he would have such a day.
It's just that what surprised him was that his grandfather turned out to be an onmyoji, he had never heard of it since he was a child, and he had never heard of it from others, it seems that grandpa is hiding a lot of things from himself, including his parents who have never met, and he doesn't know where they went, and how are they doing now?
Unexpectedly, he suddenly thought of his parents, and Ren Tanyu was also a little gloomy, although he had no feelings for his parents who had never met.
"Why, you don't want to?" Looking at the gloom in his grandson's eyes, the old man thought that his grandson was unwilling to be an onmyoji, so he asked.
"Yes, yes!" Ren Tanyu was a little stammered with excitement, it was his lifelong dream to be an onmyoji.
"But you have to understand that our onmyoji is a business of revealing heavenly secrets, and after learning the magic, you can't do things that hurt the heavens and reason, and what you need to understand is that we can't escape the spell of "five evils and three deficiencies" in this industry, no one can escape since ancient times, I deduced it for you today, but I can't see your numerology, and I can't predict how you will go in the future, all of this has to be done by yourself! The old man saw that he was a little excited, and poured cold water on him when everything was appropriate.
"Five disadvantages and three shortcomings, what are five disadvantages and three shortcomings?" It's the first time Ren Tanyu has heard of this word, because this sentence has never appeared on TV.
"The five disadvantages and three deficiencies refer to the numerology of people like the Feng Shui Xiangshi Onmyoji, it is said that these lines leak too much heavenly opportunity, which is God's punishment for us, and we can't enjoy the complete numerology like normal people. The so-called five evils are nothing more than "widowhood, widowhood, loneliness, loneliness, and disability." To put it bluntly, the three deficiencies are "money, life, and power". Old and widowless said that I am guilty of one of the five evils of "widowhood", and what will you commit in the future, I can't deduce it, do you really want to enter this trip? After explaining, the old man's expression became very serious.
"Yes! Grandpa, I do! "After thinking about Master Lin's various cool experiences, his parents, and the sword soul explained his own things, if he didn't agree to get started, it would be difficult for him to complete these things, only if he became a soul hunter, can he better control this knife, and when he has the ability, I'm afraid it will be okay to find his parents.
"Okay, since you are willing, I will give you two days for you to think about it, no one in my sect can escape the punishment of five evils and three defects, you have to think clearly. I'm going to pass on to you what I've learned all my life, but remember, don't follow your parents' path! Tears groomed in the old man's eyes again.
In the past two days, Ren Tanxiao's heart has not been able to calm down, thinking that he will be as free and easy as that Taoist Lin Lan, so heroic, and all kinds of bizarre experiences that Xiaoqiu said, he was excited, but when he thought of the five disadvantages and three shortcomings, his heart couldn't help but be gloomy, in fact, everyone is like this, everything is like this, there are good sides and bad sides, and many people will be entangled here.
Two days later, Ren Tanyu went to school as usual, and after coming back at night, he learned magic with his grandfather, and really came into contact with this industry, and Ren Tanyu understood the mystery of this. In the days to come, Ren Tanyu was simply fascinated by this, and Xiaoqiu came out to watch it from time to time, and he gradually felt that God would set up five disadvantages and three shortcomings to punish them, because this did leak too many heavenly opportunities. Heaven is ruthless, how can you easily see through it, if you have to, you must pay a heavy price.
For nearly a week, Ren Tanyu didn't see Ren Tianlan and Fat Dun at school, and it seemed that they were far more hurt and frightened than themselves. If it weren't for what the Taoist priest said, I guess I would be like this.
Of course, the Qimen technique is not something that can be learned in a day or two, and grandpa will only teach him at night, so after a week, the old man Ren Tanyu has almost recovered, so he will let him go to school normally.
Along the Huai Middle School by the mountains and rivers, the scenery is quite beautiful, every time I walk on this road to school, I always feel relaxed and happy, there is a kind of indescribable comfort. But today, Ren Tanyu has a strange feeling.
Ever since he learned the method of opening the ghost eye, he would often see things that he couldn't usually see, although his grandfather often told him that it was easy to damage his longevity if he opened the ghost eye without authorization, but when he thought that he was still so young, it didn't matter how old he was.
The so-called ghost eye is actually between the eyes of the person, there is a place called the pineal gland above the nose, it is said that the baby before the age of two because of the fireworks in the world, the pineal gland has not degenerated, so it will see the unclean things that everyone can't see, do you feel that when holding the child, the little guy will often cry inexplicably, in fact, he saw what we can't see and was scared to cry.
After the age of three, the pineal gland gradually degenerates, and the Zhilu Dao is completely closed, and at this time there is no clean thing to see. However, if a person who cultivates magic wants to see it, he must reopen the ghost eye or the eye of heaven, but this must practice some secret methods, or the ox tears that have been sealed by some master, or the willow leaves that have been sealed by a Taoist mage, which can temporarily open the ghost eyes.
Ren Tanyu was so crazy because he secretly took the willow leaves with the seal that his grandfather had hidden.
If you are interested, you can do an experiment: close your eyes, feel the center of your eyebrows with all your strength, feel a white chaotic-like vortex, and then there is a liquid body slowly flowing down in front of your eyes, and then the soul shakes violently back and forth, and then you feel that you have lost control of your body, and the sense of touch and hearing is still there, that is, there is a very wonderful feeling, it feels that the body is a cage, and the soul is about to go out. After a period of time, let the soul and body merge so that you can regain control of your body. This is the legendary out-of-body experience!
In fact, when Ren Tanyu found those unclean things on the first day, he was also scared half to death, and then he told his grandfather about it, and after his grandfather's patient enlightenment, he put his mind at ease, and every time he saw those unclean things, he pretended not to see, but he always felt a strange feeling in his heart, and today this feeling appeared again.
[Momo heard a small experiment, don't do this experiment if the timid don't do it, in case the soul can't come back, Momo is not responsible! ] Well, just kidding, keep begging for clicks, ask for tickets in the ............]
