Chapter 22: Five Tones and Seven Stars Array

"Could this Soul Summoning Flag be the Spirit Gathering Flag we are looking for?" Lu Xutao, who was standing behind Lu Juxiang, said suddenly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Lu Juxiang gently closed the book, then shook his head and said, "I don't know, although this Soul Banner and the Spirit Gathering Banner are both used to suppress the evil spirits of the dead, but it is not certain that it is the Spirit Gathering Flag." ”

"Master Huiyun, is the Conjuring Flag still planted at the foot of the mountain at this time?" Lu Juxiang asked.

"I don't know, I haven't been down in twenty years. Monk Huiyun continued to rotate the rosary in his hand.

Twenty years without going down the mountain? A lot of things will happen in those twenty years. Maybe the Soul Banner will still be there, maybe it's long gone.

"Why don't we go and have a look?" Lu Xutao proposed.

"Never. Hearing Lu Xutao's words, Lu Juxiang directly shook his head and refused. "If it's not the Spirit Gathering Banner, that's fine. If it's the Spirit Gathering Banner, we go there directly, and we may be in danger of losing our lives. ”

"How so?"

"You should know the Soul Flag, right? The Soul Flag, the Soul Flag, the difference between the two is only one word, but they have the same but different effects. After death, at the time of the funeral, the soul will be guided by the spirit flag, in order to let the soul follow the spirit flag into the bottom, so as to forget the previous life to go to the underworld to reincarnate, and not let it continue to linger in the world.

And the Soul Flag, its role is not so simple. The Soul Conjuring Banner is the Spirit Gathering Flag, so once we set foot within the range, our soul will be confused, so that the soul will leave the body and never come back. Lu Juxiang explained to Lu Xutao.

"What should we do then? If it really gathers spirit flags, will we just look at it and not take it?"

"Wait, I'll give Li Xuyang a call. The mourners are not afraid of the Spirit Gathering Banner, because when they become the Undertaker, their souls have already signed a contract with the underworld, so the effect of the Spirit Gathering Flag is ineffective for them. After Lu Juxiang finished speaking, he took out his mobile phone and called Li Xuyang.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Juxiang said to Huiyun apologetically, "I've delayed your time, Master Huiyun." ”

Huiyun waved her hand and replied, "It's okay." ”

"It's getting late now, why don't you just stay here and go down the mountain after dawn?" Huiyun could feel that Lu Juxiang and his son were not some kind of villains, besides, this is a temple, and there is nothing valuable, that thief would be stupid to come here to steal?

"Then there's Master Law. Lu Juxiang hugged his fists at Huiyun and expressed his gratitude.

The two stayed on the mountain for the night, and waited until the next day before descending the mountain. And when he came to the halfway point of the mountain, Lu Juxiang did not walk along the mountain road again, but stepped over the railing and came outside.

Detour from the south of the mountain to the east side of the mountain, although it is easy to walk, but also a little dangerous, as long as you are careful, there will be no problems.

At this time, Lu Juxiang was standing on a raised stone halfway up the mountainside, looking down at the place to the east that used to be a battlefield. Looking down from the bottom of the mountain, there was nothing wrong with the grass everywhere, and if there was anything, it was that there was a place where there was an open grave.

Most of the open graves are generally used for young children, because children die young, and they are also good people, so some people choose open burial. On the outside of the coffin, a brick coffin is being built with bricks, and the outside is painted with cement, so that the child can go to heaven and avoid suffering from the underworld.

"Let's go. Lu Juxiang turned to Lu Xutao and said.

Even his father didn't find anything, and he wouldn't know what it was. So he turned and walked the way he had come. Just two steps away, Lu Juxiang suddenly stopped, and then turned his head again to look at the grassy place.

"How is it possible?" Lu Juxiang said suddenly, startling Lu Xutao, who was walking in front.

After Lu Xutao turned around, he found that his father had stopped somewhere, and looked at that place again.

"What's the matter, father?" Lu Xutao returned to Lu Juxiang's side, and then asked puzzled why he was so surprised just now.

"It's really worthwhile to be able to see such a formation in my lifetime!" Lu Juxiang didn't answer his son's words, but looked at the open space and sighed.

"What?" Lu Xutao also looked somewhere, but he didn't find anything abnormal.

"Five-tone seven-star array. ”

"What five-tone seven-star array?" Lu Xutao didn't understand even more, scratching his head and asking.

"The five tones represent the five tones, which are Gong, Shang, Jiao, Hui, and Yu. The seven stars are the Big Dipper, which are Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang and Yaoguang. In ancient times, the seven stars would appear in different directions in the sky in different seasons, and people would determine the seasons accordingly. The seven stars are endless, and the changes will be irregular. So some people used the seven stars to calculate the location of the earth, and also used the place to find the tomb. ”

"Oh," Lu Xutao said as if he didn't understand.

Lu Juxiang continued, "The seven stars can be used to find the eye, and the same five tones can also be used. But the person who was able to combine the two into a joint use was really a whimsical person who could even think of combining these two unrelated things. ”

"Then what is the purpose of this array?" Lu Xutao's question this time was on the point.

"This effect will be great, it can make the corpses of the people buried in the array not decompose, and it will also make their descendants more and more developed. If this formation is used in the home, it will be even more useful. ”

Wait, the corpse does not decompose. Lu Juxiang suddenly thought of something, and his face suddenly froze when he was excited. Didn't the child who was buried in the open grave where he was buried never rot all along?

If the Conjuring Banner is still here, then that kid won't have anything either. However, in case the Soul Summoning Banner is no longer there, the corpse in the grave, as long as it touches the living thing and absorbs the yang energy, it may be transformed at any time.

"Let's go, get down the hill. After Lu Juxiang finished speaking, he directly bypassed Lu Xutao and walked down the mountain. Lu Xutao also hurriedly followed, this old man is so old, and his body is still so flexible.

After coming to the bottom of the mountain, Lu Juxiang knocked on the door of a house. At this time, their families were eating, and after seeing Lu Juxiang again, they all stopped to see what he was going to do.

"Excuse me, whose family is the open-air grave buried at the bottom of the mountain?" Lu Juxiang asked the owner of the family who opened the door for him.

"Where did you come from? You didn't let us eat early in the morning, and you said such bad things, let's go for a walk. Lu Juxiang was about to say something, but was pushed out by the head of the house, and when he turned around again, the door was already locked.

"Hey, hey. Seeing that the door was locked, Lu Juxiang did not lose heart, and came to another person's house again and continued to ask the same question. But in the end, he was kicked out and scolded by others.

Lu Xutao didn't understand why his father did this, even if the corpse was cheating, what did it have to do with them?

This time I came to the door of a man's house, which was a little dilapidated, the door was still made of wood, and it looked like it was a long time ago.

"Dangdangdang" Lu Juxiang knocked lightly on the door a few times.

A few minutes later, a woman's voice was heard, followed by the sound of the door being opened. A woman in her forties looked at Lu Juxiang and asked, "Old man, who are you looking for?"

"Excuse me, under the smart mountain, whose open-air grave is, do you know?"

The woman looked at him, and then at Lu Xutao behind him, feeling that he didn't look like a bad person, so she asked again, "What are you asking for?"

Lu Juxiang saw that someone listened to him, so he replied, "That's right, there is a very powerful formation at the foot of the mountain, if the corpse is buried somewhere, the corpse will not rot forever, and there is a great possibility that the corpse will be deceived by the corpse." ”

When the woman heard this, she was a little frightened, and after looking around to see that there was no one, she said to Lu Juxiang, "Master, please come into the house and sit!"

Letting Lu Juxiang's father and son into the house, the woman asked again, "How can the corpse be transformed?"

Lu Juxiang sat on the chair, took the water brought by the woman, took a sip and said, "That's the five-tone seven-star array, and you can't bury the corpse in it, if you want to bury it, it can only be a dead person." Otherwise, the other corpses will be transformed and endanger the world. ”

"Huh?" After the woman heard Lu Juxiang's words, she covered her mouth with her hands, and tears were about to flow out.

The woman's name was Wu Guilian, a widow whose son died within a few days of birth, so she and her husband buried their son on the east side of the mountain. But the good times didn't last long, and the pain of losing a child would pass quickly, but in the winter of the previous year, his husband went to the river to catch fish and the like to make money to supplement the family. But after that time, his husband never returned.

She was told that her husband had fallen because he had chiseled open the ice, and that he had not found the exit to the ice and had been trapped in the water. There are also rumors that his husband fished fish, killed too many people, and was retaliated by water ghosts.

But after her husband died, she also began to be pointed at here, and the child died not long after birth, and her husband disappeared one after another, saying that she was the life of a man. She was already sad, but she almost collapsed because of the words of her fellow villagers and neighbors.

She also thought about suicide to spend time with her son and husband. As long as she is dead, their family can be together again, but she still doesn't have the courage to commit suicide, so she can only live silently and alone.

I was forty years old before I gave birth to a son, but I didn't expect that before the full moon, I died again. The husband also left one after another, and whoever these things are put on is estimated to go crazy or collapse.

"What should I do?" Wu Guilian knelt down directly, hoping to get Lu Juxiang's help. She didn't know that this was going to happen, and if she had, she wouldn't have buried her child anywhere.

"Alas, it's been less than three years, and maybe there's a way. For now, we can only wait, wait for that person to arrive. Lu Juxiang helped Wu Guilian up, and then sighed and said.

"Waiting for whom?"

"Li Xuyang. ”
