Chapter 19: Not My Induction
I know that Katsu Yu Po must be creating a bigger conspiracy, and the Butterfly Gang will not stop there, I am now in the center of a tornado, seemingly peaceful, but in fact extremely dangerous. I really didn't expect that a chicken thief would cause such a big trouble!
My master is also worried, on the night of the full moon, the qi of the sun is the most strong, it is the moment when the ability of many evil creatures reaches its peak, a few years ago, on the roof of the old house in the village, on the night of the full moon, there will be foxes, weasels and the like standing on the roof of the roof to "worship the moon", and wild wolves and some animals will howl at the long moon...... Tonight is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the moon is very round, so I'm afraid it's going to be more lively.
My grandmother, uncle, and aunt all ate at my house, and the dinner was hearty, but everyone was a little unate, and Lao Lin had always been a good drinker, and he didn't drink much tonight. After eating, the whole family sat in the living room and chatted, waiting for strange things to happen, and my master even prepared a peachwood sword, a small bow and arrow, a five-color flag, a bell, glutinous rice, pen and ink cinnabar, and so on.
Master's peachwood sword is only a few feet long, not only small in size, but also very poor in workmanship, and there are no sigils or ornaments on the surface, no different from the toys in the hands of naughty children on the side of the road.
"Master, is this your son's toy when he was a child?" I deliberately laughed to relax everyone's tense nerves.
The master sighed, picked up the small sword and showed a look of remembrance: "This is a magic weapon made for me by my grandfather, and it was indeed used as a toy at first. Don't underestimate it, the wooden sword is made of thousands of years of peach tree hearts, and it takes more than half a year to make it according to a specific time to take materials, sharpen, carve, sacrifice, and embed the demon slaying rune. This arrow is also made of the same material, and the bow is made of centuries-old red willow, and the willow bow peach arrow has a strong restraint effect on ghosts and evil spirits. Although I'm not a master of the weapon, these two magic weapons have also been cultivated and cultivated for nearly fifty years......"
It was the first time I heard Master talk about his ancestors, and I hurriedly asked, "Master, your grandfather must be very powerful, right?" ”
Master smiled, the pride in his smile could not be concealed, but he soon looked a little sad and lost, and after a while he said, "My grandfather disappeared when I was seven years old, and this was given to me by him before he disappeared. I couldn't figure out how ugly he had made these two ritual artifacts before, until the catastrophe came, and I realized that if I didn't make them like children's toys, I couldn't keep them. ”
"Could it be that Master Zeng calculated that there would be that catastrophe?" I know that the Great Catastrophe mentioned by Master refers to the Cultural Revolution, but I don't believe it, according to the time he said, New China should not have been established when Master Zeng disappeared.
Master said: "After my grandfather disappeared, my Zhou family still has a high reputation, the family has 100 acres of fertile land, so they don't do anything, and their children and grandchildren don't have to worry about food for generations, you say that I will be poor like this?" My father was beaten to death, and all his magic weapons were destroyed, and none of them were left...... That's it, that's it, it's all in the past, let's not talk about it. ”
Lao Lin smiled: "You're finished, I recorded everything you just said, you are dissatisfied with the country and ZF, resentful, sooner or later plotting against foreign countries, and communicating with foreign ......"
Master's face immediately turned pale, and his body shook and almost fell off the chair, I hurriedly supported him: "Second Master is joking with you, don't believe his nonsense, now that there is freedom of speech, it doesn't matter if you go to Tiananmen Square to say this." ”
Lao Lin Daxiao, triumphant, don't think that he is a hero who saves people in danger, sometimes he also bullies people, he is an old rascal, and it is even more common to tease my master.
The master didn't bother with Lao Lin, or didn't dare to deal with him, and began to talk about some strange things. The seven generations of his family are all famous Mr. Yin and Yang, and of course there are many strange things he has experienced and heard of, and he can't finish it in ten days and half a month, as long as he starts talking, everyone is willing to listen.
I asked how Master's grandfather disappeared, but Master just said lightly that Zeng Shizu went to find the dragon vein, and he didn't come back as soon as he left, and he didn't want to say more.
We listened to the story told by the master, and before we knew it, it was already midnight, nothing special happened, and the dogs in the village did not bark, which proved that the zombies had not entered the village. Everything is so normal, but it makes us feel nervous, and no one goes to sleep.
I sat for a long time and felt a little tired, so I leaned back in the chair to relax, and then I suddenly felt a little trance, like someone or something was staring at me, and that feeling made me very uncomfortable, like someone I looked down on was showing off to me. Soon I realized that it was not just one thing staring at me, but three breaths that made me very unhappy were suppressing me, the first was cold and slippery, the second was treacherous and dark, and the third was fierce and blood-devouring.
I jumped up and startled the others and asked me what was wrong.
"It's okay......" I raised my hand to signal everyone not to be nervous, and then pressed my temples to think hard, the feeling just now was very strange, just like people doze off when they are very sleepy and shake their heads and wake up, I have no memory of how to get into a state of drowsiness before waking up. Although I felt the feeling just now, it didn't seem like I experienced it, but I knew that there had been such a thing.
I suddenly had a flash of inspiration, didn't I sense it just now, but the vixen on my body?
Master kept staring at me, and from my expression, he saw some clues in my expression and asked me, "Did you sense something?" ”
"Yes, there are three different breaths that I have a hard time describing...... One is cold and wet; One is a very insidious, very cunning feeling; There is still a feeling of being very domineering, very irritable, very arrogant, in short, these three breaths make me feel very annoying, they are provoking me. ”
Everyone stared at me strangely, and my mom nervously asked, "Is someone hurting you again?" ”
"No, no, I'm fine......" I really don't know what to say, because no one except my master knows that I have changed my spirit, and there is a thousand-year-old fox spirit hidden in my body. If my mother knew about this, she would definitely be worried about half death, so I definitely can't say it.
Master asked, "Is it inside the village or outside the village?" ”
I shook my head, the feeling just now was very vague, it flashed, where could I figure it out?
Master pondered for a while: "The first breath you said, is it like a snake?" ”
It dawned on me: "Yes, it's the feeling of a snake!" ”
Master nodded: "I know what the second one is, but I can't guess the third one." As I expected, there was more than one evil thing! ”
I also thought of it, the second feeling is a bit like Sheng Yupo's eyes, then it must be an evil thing that communicates with her, no wonder she is full of tricks, cunning and insidious, this is called the same smell, close to the ink black!
Lao Lin and my grandmother looked at each other, not knowing what I was talking to the master, and Lao Lin asked very depressedly, "What kind of dumb riddle are you playing?" ”
The master finally had a chance to take revenge: "I told you that you don't understand, just go to bed if you have nothing to do, it seems that the world is peaceful tonight." ”
While others don't understand Master's words, I know very well that one of the three demons is the "master" of Sheng Yu Po, and Sheng Yu Po's actions today are instigated by it, so they will definitely not make trouble tonight, so as to show the greatness and correctness of Sheng Yu Po. But today, Shengyu Po is sacrificing three big camphor trees, could it be related to these three trees? I looked at Master, and there was some confusion in his eyes, and it was obvious that he couldn't figure it out.
Others don't go to sleep, I go to sleep first, in fact, I haven't slept well for several days, I have to take advantage of the calm to make up for it.
In the second half of the night I slept soundly, I didn't dream, and the village was peaceful.
The next morning, the whole village was in a sensation, all talking about Sheng Yupo and the camphor tree god, and praised her psychic ability and the inspiration of the big camphor tree, and even many people who usually did not believe in ghosts and gods began to be skeptical. Many believers rushed to Shengyupo's house, incense to her family's shrine, all kinds of gifts piled up into a hill, and later sent several pennants to her house with great fanfare, such as "responsive", "well-known", "supernatural" and so on.
Master and I are speechless, it's really a demon eliminator, if this continues, the whole village except my family will become her faithful believers, if she points her head at me, even my master can't control it.
Lao Lin was also in a very unhappy mood, as soon as Zuihou left, he really partnered with his friends to do business, and he was in a hurry to go to Nanjing, which had been delayed for several days, and he was not interested in this kind of mysterious and mysterious thing. So he waved his hand and left, missing the once-in-a-lifetime event that followed......
The next two days were calm, Sheng Yupo didn't make trouble, and the zombie old man seemed to have turned into air and disappeared without a trace. The people who were scratched and bitten by zombies are basically fine, except for Xu Jianmao, who has a less father, and everyone else feels that the matter has passed.
My master is a very good gambler, and he usually plays "four-color cards" endlessly with a group of old men, winning or losing for only a few dollars, mainly to kill time. But playing on the addiction, these days did not touch the cards, the whole body is not strong, rare to calm down, dropped two books told me to memorize the basics, memorized him and then explained to me, and then went to play cards.
These two books are very old and are about to be turned over, one is called "Taiqing Shenjian", which is the secret of looking at the appearance; The other is called "Divination Zhengzong", which is a book of divination and fortune-telling.
"Divination Zhengzong" is based on the eight trigrams of the six trigrams plus the hexagram body, the world, with the gods, combined with the heavenly and earthly branches, support, arch, together, punishment, chong, gram, harm, the five elements of the gram, the six gods and so on to carry out the classification and prediction method, very complex, can be calculated and predicted the time of the day, the year, the dynasty, the war, the earthquake, marriage, the disease, medicine, the planting, the wealth, the name, the official, the house, etc., the development to the modern can even be used to measure the rise and fall of stocks.
According to science, when the seeker concentrates his thoughts, the brain waves are emitted to the future, and the eight trigrams are formed through the magnetic field transformation of the copper coins, and then the results are calculated through a special "formula"; According to superstition, it is the heavens or ghosts and gods who guide the maze and show the omen through gossip...... All in all, this is the most authentic divination technique for making accurate predictions about a specific event.
"Taiqing Shenjian" was compiled by Liu Bowen, and the secret treasures of the court in the past dynasties were not allowed to be passed on, and it was a treasure book of physiognomy that people in the physiognomy world dreamed of. The book is a total of six volumes, first general, then sub-thesis, each article is divided into a number of items, from the hand prints, physiognomy, bones and other aspects of detailed analysis, in addition to the unique from the human posture, eyes, qi and blood, tone, tone, lying posture, slow steps and other aspects of the analysis of good fortune, bad fortune, noble and low.
These two books have a large number of formulas and basic knowledge to memorize, and I didn't understand the meaning of the formulas at first, and it was completely rote memorization, which made me feel painful. A few years later, I had a computer, and I knew that I could use computer software to arrange four-column disks and six-column disks, and I could also arrange the plates online, and it could be done in a few seconds......
