Chapter Seventy-Seven. Settle all beings
Thinking of this, subconsciously, I quickly shrank my hand and shrank it out of the quilt. I thought that I would break free, and even if I couldn't, I would be able to take the opportunity to know how strong the ghost who grabbed my hand was.
But what I didn't expect was that when I withdrew my hand so hard, it felt light. Not only that, but I was pulled out of the quilt along with the ghost who grabbed my hand. It was the appearance of a middle-aged man, with thin cheeks and a figure-of-eight mustache on his lips. Being pulled by me, its entire upper body was pulled into the gap between me and Meng Dongxue.
Frankly speaking, this time it did scare me a little badly. If it weren't for the fear of scaring Meng Dongxue, I would definitely scream like a pig. The ghost's expression was no different from other ghosts, except that it grabbed the wrist of my left hand, and the palm of my left hand was the purple micron that all ghosts should fear. I found that there should still be ghosts in the quilt covering the lower half of our bodies at this moment. This seems to be a little different from what Ji Youan encountered yesterday. If the girl had not opened her eyes when she had gotten into the quilt, she would not have been able to see the ghost's head in the quilt, and I had not gotten in, but the ghost had touched me so that I could discover its existence.
After a few seconds of stalemate, I noticed that the ghost that had grabbed my hand did not make any further movements, it was like a stiff shadow, motionless. Because I was afraid that those ghosts would tease Meng Dongxue, I said to her, now that they are here, don't open your eyes no matter what, if something touches you, don't move, bear it. Meng Dongxue was already crying at the moment, what? So you weren't touching me? I was stunned, what does this mean? Did you mean that the part of her covering the quilt had been touched by a ghost? And then she thought it was me?
In order to prove that I am not a frivolous person, I will not take advantage of the fire to rob at this time. I quickly explained, that's not me, I can behave properly, I didn't touch you at all. Who knew that as soon as I finished saying this, she couldn't hold back anymore and cried out. It seems that it would be better if I didn't say it, and although I would be treated as a hooligan, at least it wouldn't scare her to cry.
It's too late to think about it that much at the moment. I pretended to be okay and got out of bed. But the ghost standing by the bed didn't seem to have any intention of giving way, so I didn't bother to bother with it, so I just stretched my foot over. My feet penetrated their bodies with ease, but the sensation was soft, as if the wind was passing through it. As I got up and got out of bed, the ghost who grabbed my wrist was pulled out of the quilt by me. But when it got to the bedside, it let go. The whole body slowly floated to the ground like a feather, and then stood up softly again.
After my hand was released, I opened my slap and held Ziwei in front of my chest. But as I gradually moved my body towards the other end of the bed, I noticed that the dozen ghosts of men, women, and children in the room were all turning their heads to look at me. This undoubtedly gave me an accurate piece of information, and it just happened to prove my previous suspicions. The purpose of this group of ghosts at this time is not Meng Dongxue who is hiding on the bed and covering her eyes, or even the two girls last night, but me.
If I'm not mistaken, after Ji Youan said last night that I was the one who caught ghosts and sent ghosts, their appearance was just to lure me to appear. They know that last night's movement will definitely cause someone to come looking for me, and I will definitely come back. But last night I stayed all night, and none of them showed up, either because I didn't say clearly who I was and what I was going to do, and I couldn't get them to notice. Either that, this rule of "living in men but not women" caused me to appear in the house as a pure male in the house, and it was impossible to induce them to appear.
Why are you coming at me? Either they want to form a group and destroy me. Either you want to be destroyed by me. Or maybe it's a message to me that I know they exist so that I can send them away.
I chose the last ones for the simple reason that they didn't hurt me in any way from start to finish. Maybe those horrible looks are all showing me who they are. When I thought of this, I put away the purple micro in my hand. Then slowly move to a corner of the room. I must make sure that I find the bowls of water that I had placed in the corner beforehand, and if they are not malicious, then I will give them a ride.
So I saved the tedious steps of the Yuanguang technique and started asking about rice directly. By the time I threw the rice, the ghosts had all turned to face me, and I noticed that there were still two ghosts standing in the place I had leaned on the bed at first. I didn't say anything and asked them if they were looking for me, and the answer was that they were looking for me. I asked again, is the reason for looking for me so that I can send you away? The answer is yes.
In this way, I relaxed a little. At least I know that although there are many ghosts in this room, they are all there to leave, not to harm people. It's just that since they are dressed the same, their demeanor and movements are the same, it means that they are ghosts that existed in the same period, and they are deeply related to each other. So it suddenly occurred to me that this group of people was probably the bandits who were shot by the bandit suppression force that the old man said. Bandits were originally murderers and overstalkers, although they did the work of robbing the rich and helping the poor, but after all, they were burdened with criminal karma. The death of such a person because of the shooting can be regarded as atonement for some sins. If punishment is imposed after death, it will not drag on for decades.
Normally, the ghosts that survived decades ago should be weak at this moment. Even if you encounter a few strong ones, it's because of the relationship between the weak ghosts that have been annexed, and they definitely won't appear in groups like in front of you. Then it came to me that I wondered if these ghosts had encountered some kind of blockade so that they had not shown up for years, and if they couldn't get out, they wouldn't leave.
I asked my question again, and the conclusion was true, and when I asked them why they couldn't leave, the dozen or so ghosts in the house, who had been holding their heads straight since they entered the house, lowered their heads in unison at this moment, and pointed a hand in the direction of their feet, that is, the position of the ground.
When I thought about it, it dawned on me.
What they're trying to say is, the cowshed down here. Cows have the effect of suppressing ghosts, so even living domestic animals, cows and horses, can be afraid of ghosts. Cow tears are said to be one of the tools that can see ghosts, and cow dung and cow urine are both means that can oppress ghosts and cannot leave. This is what I had read in a book earlier, but because that book was more like a book with wild imagination such as the Classic of Mountains and Seas and Liao Zhai, I just regarded it as a story or anecdote, but I didn't expect it to happen right under my nose.
Therefore, I assert that after the execution of these bandits, including the wives of the aunts who died here because they "live with men but not women", and the little daughter, their bones were buried here. And there is also a strange circle of "living and dying", where the dead are buried, and if they fall into the well, no one can save them, so they can only stay below forever. And in the past few years, there must have been a chance to detach, but on the ground where the bones were buried, another cowshed was erected. The feces, urine, and feces of the cows, excreted at will, pressed against the bones, and they could not leave from that time.
And last night's appearance for two nights in a row tonight, I'm convinced is no coincidence. Since they can all appear to make trouble, why didn't they remind the old couple earlier? Therefore, I asserted that the days of these few days should be around the time when they were killed by the bandit troops.
Although this has not been confirmed, it will be sooner or later. Now that I know that these ghosts are not harmful, it is not that I don't want to leave, but when I can't leave. I immediately relented. So I said to Meng Dongxue, who was still shivering blindfolded on the bed, you wait for me, and I will deal with them. So I took out the bell from my bag and took out the spirit flag that had already been tied. Because I didn't know the names of these people, I had to be taken away as a lonely ghost.
The souls of these bandits, after being suppressed by cow and cow urine for decades, have long since lost their anger. With a little purification of the teachings, they will be easily sent away by me. I'm not even going to let them be my soldiers. This is actually a bit of a pity, because if this bandit army is my soldiers, then I will not be able to reach the sky.
So I stepped on my feet and said:
"The Banner Hanging Treasure No. Puli Boundless Gods protect the heavens and eliminate the sins, and after the flags fall into the clouds, they return to the heavens, and they must obey the law and must not be delayed, and they are as urgent as the law!"
Rattle, raise spirits, and summon spirits. These ghosts were very obedient and obediently followed me down. So I unlocked the door, walked outside, and leaned the spirit banner against the wall. He went back to the house to confirm whether there were any remaining ghosts, and then purified the house, and planned to tell Meng Dongxue that it was all over.
But when I squatted on the edge of the bed and reached out to shake her shoulder, I found that even though the weather was cold, Meng Dongxue's forehead was still covered with beads of sweat. I knew it must not be because of the heat, but because the girl was scared like this.
Meng Dongxue curled up, looking like a frightened little animal, so I gently shook her shoulders, she probably thought I was a ghost, and actually started yelling.
All of a sudden, I got into a mischievous and started blowing into her ears, and then my mouth made a clattering sound as if she was chewing. Then he swallowed it with a grunt, and then struggled to hold back a loud burp. Then he brought his mouth to her ear and said in that low voice:
"Hell... Already... Gone..."
Then I sat on the floor and laughed. She opened her eyes, full of tears, and looked at me pitifully. Then I cried out with a wow, and suddenly reached out and hugged me, who was squatting on the edge of the bed and laughing.
