Chapter 18 Ancient Temples III
"What does this mean?" Bai Thirteen's palm unconsciously stroked the golden ring on the back of the knife, making a bell-like light sound.
Adhering to the principle that any clue is useful, Bai Shisan believed that these five monks still had to engrave words on their respective horns before they died, and it was definitely not for fun.
"Big blindfolded. ”
Bai Thirteen looked around, and the yellow and white walls were covered with cobwebs. There is a single plank bed against the wall by the window, and the bed is pressed against the wall.
There was nothing on the bed, just a gray and white cloth that resembled a handkerchief.
Bai 13 stepped forward, found a still usable fire breaker from the bedside, and lit half of the candle on the wooden cabinet by the window.
Candles flickered in the closed room, and the faint light lit the room dimly.
At this time, Bai Shisan discovered that the wall on which the wooden bed was leaning actually had a faint humanoid mark.
It's like a person who doesn't get out of bed all year round, and under various factors, imprinted his flat figure on the wall for a long time.
And the humanoid print on that wall revealed weirdness everywhere in Bai Thirteen's eyes.
If that mark corresponds to someone who once lay on the bed, then his neck is actually nearly thirty centimeters long.
And the neck of the human print on the wall is obviously different from the color of other body parts.
The others are yellowish-white, while the neck is grayish-white.
Just when Bai Thirteen frowned and wanted to reach for the gray and white cloth on the single plank bed, the mutation protruded.
The candles in the room were extinguished instantly, and the sudden darkness engulfed Bai Thirteen like a monster.
When Bai Shisan opened his eyes again, he found that the sky outside was already bright.
The sunlight outside the window squeezed into the room through the cracks, and the warm, disgusting smell of rotting corpses was gone.
Bai Shisan had a headache, and when he heard someone outside, he wanted to open his mouth to ask.
Who knew that he had just regained consciousness when he found that his mouth had been stuffed with rags.
He was also tied to the wooden bed against the wall with thick hemp rope.
"Master, my son's strange illness is getting worse and worse, and the doctors around me have also let me visit all over the place, so I can't help it. ”
Bai Shisan listened attentively, and the person talking outside the window should be a middle-aged man. The conversation was mixed with the low sobs of the woman and the chanting of the monks.
"Don't worry about Lord Li, wait for the old man to enter the house to check on Ling Gongzi's situation. ”
Bai Thirteen's pupils in the room shrank, and he probably understood what role he was playing at this time.
The bolt of the door was pryed, and a large area of golden sun was thrown into the house, and Bai Shisan could clearly see the dust that was tumbling violently in the golden pillar-like sunlight.
The old monk in the red robe entered the house, followed by several young monks and the two NPC parents who forcibly placed Bai Thirteen.
The little monk shrank back, and the man surnamed Li comforted the woman with red eyes with one hand, and looked at Bai Thirteen with a complicated expression.
Bai Shisan also somehow, seeing these people who can move, he unconsciously swelled up with an inexplicable restlessness in his heart.
I can't help but want to hunt them down.
"Repair...... My son......" The woman saw that Bai Thirteen suddenly became agitated, her eyes were sour, and she wanted to go forward to hug her son, but was stopped by the old monk.
Bai Thirteen felt like a bystander living in someone else's body at this time.
It seems that his consciousness has entered the body of this young man named Li Xiuyuan, and he can perceive the external environment as well as himself, and he can clearly feel his emotions and mental activities.
But there is no interference.
It's like a script, and Bai Thirteen is the one who sits on the stage and watches the actors perform.
"Donor, we meet again. The old monk's white beard hung down, and his voice was loud.
Bai Shisan's heart trembled, wasn't this old monk the host that day?
"In the past, after Lijia Village, I was treated by Li Yuanwai, and at the request of the staff, I asked the Buddha for the son, and I got this fate. Now it seems that it is really a cultivation relationship, and we have met again with the little benefactor. ”
The old monk's eyes flashed, and he was actually a good martial artist. Moreover, his eyes were full of energy, and he actually cultivated one more internal skill than Bai Thirteen.
Although the skin is wrinkled due to age, the monk's palms do not have age spots.
He pulled out the rag in Bai Thirteen (Li Xiuyuan)'s mouth, and Bai Thirteen was also fierce, and bit the old monk's little finger.
The old monk's eyes drooped, and he let the blood flow in his hands.
The frowning brows of the Li family and his wife never let go, and they just wanted to pull the old host away, but they were blocked by the old host waving his hand.
The gaze that looked at Bai Thirteen was always full of love.
Finally, with a creak, the little finger of the old host was bitten off. Bai Shisan, who shared the same consciousness with Li Xiuyuan, could clearly feel that the old host's fingers fell into his stomach through his throat.
Bai Shisanqiang endured his nausea and watched the situation develop. But unexpectedly, the hot feeling that just poured out from the bottom of my heart disappeared, and the thick bloodthirsty hunger also disappeared.
At this time, Li Xiuyuan's eyes also returned to clarity, and he looked blankly at the people around him.
The Li family and his wife looked at the old host with reverence as if they were looking at the living Buddhas.
The woman couldn't cry, bowed to the old host several times in a row, and then prostrate in front of Li Xiuyuan's window, with an indescribable relief in her eyes.
"Once a child's bulimia occurs, they will lose their minds, frantically prey on the living creatures that appear in front of them, and they will not be able to eat enough. ”
Li Yuanwai looked at the old host's severed finger, and his heart was full of shame and self-blame.
"Master Li doesn't have to mind, this is my practice. In addition, according to my observation, Ling Gongzi's physique has been different from ordinary people since he was a child, otherwise I would not have taken the word "cultivation" for him.
But now it seems that this is no longer as simple as a physique that is different from ordinary people. ”
After hearing this, Li Yuanwai paused, and said in a deep voice: "Presiding over Lao, please take a step to speak." ”
The old host nodded and went outside the house with Li Yuanwai.
When he got outside, Li Yuanwai sighed deeply, as if he remembered something terrifying, and he stopped talking again and again.
"I know what I'm saying may not be in line with common sense, and you'll think I'm talking nonsense, but!
Li Yuanwai raised his head and fell into memory.
"Originally, I thought that Xiuyuan's bulimia would be fine as long as he restrained it, so I ordered someone to tie his hands and feet and put him in bed overnight. There was always someone guarding the door of his bedroom, but when I saw it the next day, the corners of my son's mouth were bloody, and his head was bigger.
I was suspicious, and at night I ambushed my family with my family, and I saw a horrific scene that I will never forget for the rest of my life. My son's head suddenly burst out of the window and disappeared, while his body remained in the house!"
The more Li Yuanwai spoke, the more excited he became, and his body couldn't stop trembling.
The old host frowned slightly, pondered for a long time, and asked, "Did Madame go anywhere during her pregnancy?"
As soon as the topic changed, Li Yuanwai also recovered some of his thoughts and recalled carefully.
"I haven't been anywhere, and most of the time I'm at home. Wait a minute...... The only time I went out was when Shan'er had just had a happy time and I went in a carriage to visit my father-in-law and mother-in-law in another city.
Because of the large pregnancy, Shan'er and the pregnancy and childbirth cultivation, it will be a long time to go out, so we went to visit the two old people in advance. ”
The old host nodded, and then asked, "Then what strange things can you encounter on the way?"
Li Yuanwai suddenly said: "It seems that there is, the cultivation is so big, the age is too far away, and the details are not clear." I just remember that when I was on my way, I came across a dilapidated ancient temple that seemed to have an offering table and a headless statue inside. ”
The old host sighed, his expression was complicated, and after thinking about it, he still spoke: "Master Li Shi, according to the poor monk's guess, you may have met the fallen spirit. ”
"Falling Spirit?" Li Yuanwai wondered.
The old host nodded, and called a little monk to ask him to take the scriptures placed in No. 3 of the sixth row of the Ding District of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion.
"In ancient times, there were demons, known as the people who fell or flew the people, so they were killed by the strangers in the world. Who knows that although the body is destroyed, but their soul is still there, they are called the fallen spirit.
These fallen spirits will perform a priestly activity called wormfall, which will parasitize the body of pregnant women, devour the soul of the child in the womb, and then merge into their own spirits, and the dove will occupy the magpie's nest. ”
Li Yuanwai frowned after hearing this, obviously he didn't like the old host's rhetoric, and what kind of parents in the world were willing to listen to others say that their children were demons?
But there are times when men are always different from women, and rationality is greater than emotion.
Li Xiuyuan's situation is here, and he doesn't want to deceive himself.
"Alas, do you have any good ways to host?" Li Yuanwai's face was full of anxiety, and he suddenly seemed to be ten years old.
The old host looked at Li Yuanwai, who was holding his sleeve like a child, and sighed: "Pity the hearts of parents all over the world." ”
"Demons are good and bad, and people are good and evil. If there were no prejudices, these fallen people would be good monsters who relied on devouring the aura of heaven and earth and absorbing Yuehua's cultivation, but they would have to kill them all.
Now they have become spirits harming people, and it is all karma. Heaven and earth do not know where so many evil qi emerge from there, and some spiritual things are unconsciously polluted and bewitched. They didn't even know they were doing something unseemly. ”
The old host sighed and continued: "It's not without a way, just now I condensed the Dharma at my little finger and used flesh and blood as a medium to suppress the evil qi in Ling Gongzi's body, but this is only a temporary method, and it can't be eradicated.
The evil spirit can only be eradicated after a long time of purification, I suggest that the member or leave the son in the small temple for a period of time, the evil spirit knows my mind, he will definitely be more violent than before, and it is not good for the child to stay by the side outside the staff. ”
Li Yuanwai nodded after hearing this, and he called the woman to explain to her that even if the woman was reluctant, she could only do so.
The mountains and forests were not safe at night, so the old host let the Li family and his wife leave early in the morning.
The rope on Bai Shisan's body has been untied, but the door is locked, and his body at this time is Li Xiuyuan's, he has no martial arts, and if he breaks through, he can't beat the group of bald donkeys.
Now Li Xiuyuan is an ordinary person when he is not sick.
Moreover, he also does not have control over Li Xiuyuan's body.
In the twilight, the red makeup on the horizon gradually dimmed.
Bai Shisan opened the window, and the two little monks guarding in front of the window smiled at him kindly.
Bai 13 ignored it, looking at the figure running around in the night, not knowing what he was thinking.
