Chapter 66: Drizzle and Dark Marriage

Guan Zheng's cultivation was able to break through, Xu Changqing was very happy, and was about to try his cultivation again, but he saw that Guan Zheng's face suddenly became solemn, and his nose twitched, as if there was some peculiar smell in the air. He couldn't help but sniff it, but he didn't smell any peculiar smell, he couldn't help frowning, and asked, "Brother Guan, is there anything wrong?"

Guan Zheng hesitated for a moment, and said: "Don't hide it from the master, I was born with a spirit nose, and I can smell the evil breath of ghosts and demons, and at this moment, there is a very strong ghost and evil qi gathering ten miles northwest of the Taoist Temple, and it is getting stronger and stronger, it seems that it should be towards the Ma family." ”

Xu Changqing was a little surprised, and then he looked relieved, some children of cultivation families would have some innate abilities to a greater or lesser extent, it was not uncommon for Guan Zheng to have a spiritual nose, and his own divine eyes were also considered a natural ability. After listening to Guan Zheng's words, Xu Changqing secretly pinched the law seal, ran the true yuan, opened the eye of heaven, and looked in the direction that Guan Zheng was pointing. Indeed, as he said, a strong ghost qi emerged from the barren mountain in the northwest direction, and the ghost qi was full of killing aura, rushing straight into the sky, even the thick clouds could not block it, and a big hole was opened, and the qi of the moon shot down from the hole and shone directly on the barren mountain, and the momentum was extremely huge. Judging from the fact that it had such a huge momentum before it was born, this evil ghost was at least at the level of the Ghost King, and even above the Ghost King.

"Master, what should we do?" Guan Zheng also sensed that this evil ghost seemed to be extremely powerful, so he turned to Xu Changqing and asked.

"The fortunes of the country are declining, demons are everywhere, not only the secular world is in chaos, but even the cultivation world is in chaos. Xu Changqing pretended to be deep, sighed and said: "Let's go! Since the matter has happened to us, it is also a chance, since the evil ghost is going to the Ma family, let's go over and take a look." ”

"What the master said is exactly what I want. Guan Zheng is now cultivating to improve and just want to find an evil demon to do a big job, hearing Xu Changqing's words, he happily packed up the treasure chest, put it behind him, extinguished the fire, and followed Xu Changqing, and quickly ran towards the Ma family shop that was doing a happy event.

Although the Taoist temple is a few miles down the mountain from Ma's house, with the light exercises of Xu Changqing and Guan Zheng, it is only a moment away. However, when the two arrived at Majiapu, the scene in front of them made the two feel a little surprised, it turned out that although the lights were lit up here, it seemed to be doing a happy event, but there was no lively scene like a happy event, but it seemed cold and lonely, with a touch of gloomy and weird atmosphere. All the people's doors are hung with red lanterns, but the door is tightly closed, two strings of animal bones are hung on both sides of the door, and there is a sedan chair on the entrance to the village, which is particularly eye-catching.

"What's going on?" Guan Zheng, who saw the strange scene in front of him, asked puzzled.

"It's a ghost marriage!" Xu Changqing frowned slightly and said: "In some places, if there are mountain ghosts, the locals will take a virgin as a living sacrifice and marry the mountain ghosts, so that the mountain ghosts can calm down, this is the ghost of the world." However, this custom is generally only found in the south, and when did the north also start to have this kind of thing that damages the virtue of heaven. ”

"Regardless of his south and north, save people first!" Guan Zheng heard that there was still a matter of using living people as sacrifices, and immediately became indignant, and ran towards the sedan without thinking too much.

Running to the edge of the sedan chair, Guan Zheng lifted the curtain, only to see a bride wearing a phoenix crown and a curtain sitting inside. What does not match this dress is that the bride's hands and feet are all tied to death, unable to move, her eyes have no other expression except for horror and despair, and the rouge on her face is also painted with tears, although her appearance is indeed delicate and lovely, but at this moment she can't feel it at all.

"Girl, don't be afraid! We are good people, let you out now!" Guan Zheng saw that he hurriedly reached over, cut the rope that bound the bride, and then prepared to help the bride out.

However, what is surprising is that although the bride showed happiness on her face at the moment when Guan Zheng appeared, when Guan Zheng was about to save her, her expression dimmed again. Not only did she swing her body hard to prevent Guan Zheng from pulling her, but she also pulled out the edge of the sedan chair and shook her head vigorously, refusing to come out, as if Guan Zheng was the evil mountain ghost, crying and saying: "Don't! I don't want you to let me go, the mountain ghost will deal with the people in the village when I leave." So saying, he cried out loudly, "Someone is coming, someone is going to rob the bride!"

Hearing the bride's cry, the originally silent small village immediately exploded, and all the people in the house rushed out with flat poles, firewood knives and other farm tools, and before Guan Zheng could react, they had already surrounded three or four layers inside and out, staring at Guan Zheng viciously, as if they wanted to gnaw his bones and eat his meat.

At this moment, the crowd moved out of the way, and out of the crowd came a long-bearded old man with a slightly sad expression. When he saw Guan Zheng dressed in Taoist clothes and Xu Changqing, who was dressed as a monk behind Guan Zheng, his expression was slightly stunned, and he immediately dimmed, raised his hand to signal everyone to put down the things in their hands, and said to the two of them: "The two mages and monks must also be here for that evil demon mountain ghost, right? ”

Xu Changqing grabbed Guan Zheng, who wanted to speak, and looked at the people around him, most of them were now elderly people and some underage children, so he frowned, stepped forward and said: "Amitabha! The old man is probably the village leader of this village! Listening to the old man's conversation, he should have been a person who was full of poetry and books, otherwise he would not have reasoned with us like this." ”

"Master, it's over!" The aura on Xu Changqing's body eased the momentum of the surrounding people, and the old village chief's expression was also slightly soothed, and he said: "The old man once raised people in the Tongzhi period, and he was the village leader of Majiapu and the master of the private school in the village. ”

"It turns out that the master who has a meritorious name is disrespectful!" Xu Changqing dispelled the hostility of the villagers in just a few words, and then asked directly: "Listening to the tone of the old gentleman, it seems that in addition to the two of us, there are other people who have also come to subdue this mountain ghost?"

"Alas!" the old village chief sighed, and at this time not only his expression became sad, but even the expressions of the other villagers around him became extremely sad. I only heard the old man say in a deep voice: "Our Majiapu used to be one of the largest villages within three hundred miles around here, and since the boxers and bandits in the past few years, there has been no peace here." First, the boxers wandered here to become bandits, robbed the township, and later there was a very powerful mountain ghost on Hutou Mountain in the northwest. At that time, the bandits saw that our Majiapu was prosperous and wanted to rob our Majiapu, and a person in our village who knew a little magic went to invite the mountain ghosts to come, wanting to use the mountain ghosts to drive those bandits away. Although he drove away the bandits afterwards, the mountain ghost settled down in this vicinity, although he didn't want gold and silver, but he wanted human life, and every year he asked a yellow flower girl to marry him as a ghost wife. We have also invited some Taoist monks to exorcise ghosts, and even the senior monks of the Great Buddha Temple have invited a few, but they have not returned. Later, in order to appease the anger of the mountain ghosts, we had to sacrifice the young people in the village as sacrifices, so that now the young people in the village are walking away and dying, leaving only us lonely widows. ”

Guan Zheng's face turned gloomy when he heard the old village chief's suffering, and he asked in a deep voice: "This place is very close to the capital, and there are many tantric monks in the capital who are good at exorcising evil spirits and subduing demons, why don't you go to the capital to find those monks?"

The old village chief looked at Guan Zheng, smiled coldly, and said: "Do we still need to be reminded by the Taoist chief about this? Why haven't we been to the capital to invite high monks, but those so-called high monks are all jackals who are more fierce than mountain ghosts, if I can subdue the mountain ghosts, why should I use my granddaughter to marry the underworld?"

As he spoke, the old man couldn't help crying, and the bride standing in front of the sedan chair also threw herself into the arms of an old woman and cried loudly, and the faces of the surrounding villagers all showed grief and indignation.

"The so-called evil is done and evil is retributed, since the old gentleman and the villagers are all so unwilling, why don't you let the poor monk and this Guan brother try to subdue this demon?" Xu Changqing took a step forward, looked at the people around him with an indifferent expression, and then without waiting for the other party to object, he pulled Guan Zheng in front of him and said: " The poor monk is just a nameless person, so he needs to be introduced, but this Guan brother is very big, he is a descendant of the exorcist master Guan family, named Guan Zheng, proficient in the Guan family's rune sword and the Donghua faction's sword art, and is a hundred times stronger than those famous exorcist Taoists. ”

"The Guan family, could it be the Guan family in Shandong!" The old village chief looked startled, stepped forward and grabbed Guan Zheng's arm, and inadvertently saw the talisman armor he was wearing, and immediately became excited, and said: "The Guan family, it's really the Guan family in Shandong! This is the rune armor of the Guan family." As he spoke, he shouted to the people around him: "We are saved, our Ma family shop is saved!"

The people around him obviously didn't understand what was going on, and looked at the old village chief laughing like crazy, with a look of confusion and incomprehension, and even his wife and granddaughter looked at him in a daze.

"Does the old village chief know that we are the Guan family?" Guan Zheng, who was grabbed by the old village chief's arm, was stunned, and immediately asked in surprise when he heard the old village chief say the name of the Guan family's Fu Jia.

However, the old village chief didn't seem to hear Guan Zheng's words, and was still laughing vigorously, but his face became a little blue, and his expression looked hideous.

"No! The old gentleman was pleasantly surprised, lost in his mind, and in danger of losing his mind. Xu Changqing saw that something was wrong at a glance, stepped forward and pressed the old village chief's convulsive body, put a lotus seal on his hand, pressed it on the top of the old village chief's head, and said in a deep voice: "The white lotus seal is silent, and the vast Buddha power is calm!"

As Xu Changqing's Buddha spoke, the White Lotus Buddha Yuan simulated by the Nine Streams Great Dao spread out from his handprint, forming a white lotus visible to the naked eye, and then slowly sank into the head of the old village chief. At this time, the old village chief immediately calmed down, breathed calmly, closed his eyes slightly, and after the white lotus completely submerged in the top of his head, a faint white light emanated from the top of his head, like a solemn treasure statue. Where have the surrounding villagers seen such a vision, they all knelt down and threw themselves to Xu Changqing's five bodies, even calling him a holy monk, and many people even cried and called him a bodhisattva. Guan Zheng also felt the pure Buddha power coming out of Xu Changqing's hands, and he couldn't help but feel awe in his heart, and gradually put the young monk in front of him on the same level as Yan Feng.

Where did Xu Changqing use what kind of Buddhism, he was actually just using the lotus appearance of the White Lotus Crossing Method, and then adding the authentic Taoist Meditation Mantra, this superimposed Buddhist Taoist technique completely concealed the Dao power of the Meditation Mantra, and forged such a Dharma illusion that was enough to fool the people of the world. Obviously, Xu Changqing was very satisfied with his set of Taoist and Buddhist combination techniques, and a slight smile appeared on his face, but soon his face became solemn for some reason, and after withdrawing his hand from the old village chief's head, he retreated to Guan Zheng's side, without speaking, as if he was thinking about something.

After a while, the old village chief came to his senses, although he was confused just now, he also knew very well who saved him, and hurriedly stepped forward to bow down to Xu Changqing and said: "Thank you to the holy monk for saving me, please accept the old man." ”

Seeing the old man bowing to himself, Xu Changqing naturally wouldn't let him bow down, stretched out his hand to support him, ran the true yuan, formed two white lotuses on the old man's knees, held them up, and then put his hands together and said: "Old man, you don't have to be polite, God has the virtue of a good life, and the poor monk's cultivation is the Dharma of the world, how can he not save him?"

"Master, the Dharma is profound, and the old decay admires. The old village chief looked at Xu Changqing with admiration and said.

Xu Changqing smiled indifferently, folded his hands in return, and asked instead: "Just now, my Guan brother asked the old gentleman if he knew the Shandong Guan family, but the old gentleman has not answered?"

The old village chief replied respectfully: "When I was young, I used to serve as a clerk under Lord Moyun Tianpeng Guan Dexing Guan, and I knew more about the Guan family than ordinary people. Saying with a look of regret, he said: "It's a pity that although the thirty-eight heroes of the Guan family are all strange people with great magical powers, they can't match the foreign guns and artillery of foreigners after all." ”

"It turns out that the old village chief is the deceased of my eldest uncle, please accept the worship of the younger generation. Guan Zheng was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and then said with a solemn expression: "Since it is my Guan family's old man, I have met this secret marriage again today, I think it is the guidance of the eldest uncle in the dark, and I should take care of this matter! If the old village chief can trust me Guan, I will definitely fight for this life, and I will also get rid of the mountain ghosts and demons." ”

"Guan Tianshi and the noble righteousness of this holy monk are remembered by us, please accept our wait!" The old village chief and the surrounding village names were grateful, and knelt down and kowtowed.

Xu Changqing uncharacteristically did not step forward to stop them, but let them kowtow three times, Guan Zhengze hurriedly stepped forward to support those old people, and said no. After that, both of them sensed that the ghost qi had taken shape, and slowly advanced to this side, so they arranged all the villagers in the ancestral hall, Guan Zheng used his Guan family's ghost charm to seal all the doors and windows, and used the red dust rope soaked in rooster blood to surround the ancestral hall, and hung the soul bell upstairs to view the road. After a qiē was done, he and Xu Changqing came to the entrance of the village, waiting for the arrival of the mountain ghost.
