Chapter 14: On Ghosts

"Of course there are ghosts!"

Zhang Qian said very naturally: "I have been preaching for several years, and I once went down the mountain with the departed Senior Brother Sun to exorcise ghosts and earn money, and I saw a small ghost that day, which caused the grandson of the squire Zhou to cry loudly at night, and made him feel hot......

He described in vivid pictures what the little ghost looked like and what skills he had.

Only then did Chen Yun know that the children's ghosts, also known as night ghosts, were transformed after the death of children, resembling children, with unpredictable behaviors, and often appeared in the children's beds at night, making the children insomnia and sick.

The child ghost is relatively weak, and the solution is very simple, just keep a lamp on.

Of course, in Zhang Gan's mouth, he and Senior Brother Sun, who had long been dismissed, used some small means to trick the little ghost into the altar, and then used fire to destroy it.

Speaking of this, Zhang Qianyi still said: "Ghosts are generally afraid of things that are just and sunny, such as thunder, flames, etc., as long as they don't encounter particularly powerful ghosts, after catching them, a fire can burn them to ashes." ”

Chen Yun said curiously: "It's more powerful?" ”

Zhang Qian bowed his head, and his face showed a solemn look, "Don't say that the zombie ghost is particularly powerful, let's just say that the general powerful ghost, this kind of ghost often kills people invisibly, you haven't discovered its existence, you will unknowingly fall into its hallucination, and then be confused by all kinds of illusions, or scared to die violently, or be lured to the cliff and jump to death, this kind of ghost is really very difficult to deal with, unless you are ready to invite the king into the urn, mortals can destroy it, otherwise it will be harmed." ”

Li Si couldn't help but sigh, "I think that when I was the last senior brother who worked in the medicine garden, because he learned some side techniques, he repeatedly helped people get rid of ghosts after returning to his hometown, and one day he got into trouble with a ghost, and then he died because of it." ”

It can be seen that Li Si has a very good relationship with that Senior Brother Huang, otherwise he would not be so sad.

Chen Yun comforted Li Si for a few words, and then asked, "What if you encounter a powerful ghost?" ”

Zhang Qian shook his head and said: "If you fall into the illusion created by it, then there is basically no possibility of escape, but if you are lucky enough to escape, it is not impossible to solve it." ”

Chen Yun humbly begged for advice: "Please ask Senior Brother Zhang to give me some advice." ”

Zhang Qian suddenly asked a question that had nothing to do with ghosts, "Have you heard of all the poisons in the world, within five steps, there must be an antidote?" ”

There is no scientific basis for this statement.

Chen Yun nodded and said, "I've heard it." ”

"Well, in fact, there are all kinds of poisons in the world, and there may not be an antidote nearby." Zhang Qian also denied it, and then said: "However, this ghost cannot be born for no reason, and it is not that people must become ghosts after death, and it requires extremely harsh conditions. ”

Chen Yun pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

Li Si didn't seem to have heard of it, and his eyes didn't blink at Zhang Qian.

"Senior Brother Sun has a lot of research on ghosts." Zhang Qian said slowly: "He once told me this secret, generally speaking, after a person dies, the soul of heaven returns to the heavens, and the soul of the earth returns to the earth, only the soul of the person remains in the world, but people need to eat and drink water to live, and become a ghost and want to survive forever, and also need to have the so-called aura blessing, such as feng shui treasure land, or someone to support, of course, there is some kind of treasure containing aura, if there is no help from these conditions, the ghost is absolutely impossible." ”

Li Si still didn't understand a little bit, so he asked questions over there.

However, Chen Yun, who has crossed over from modern society, has roughly understood what is going on.

According to Zhang Qian, ghosts cannot be produced casually, and must have some kind of energy to provide them with "nutrients" in order to survive.

This "nourishment" may be a feng shui treasure that can condense a certain energy, or it can be people's incense, or it can provide an item that can provide similar energy to a feng shui treasure land.

After roughly understanding, Chen Yun asked rhetorically, "Senior Brother Zhang, what did you just mean that if you are lucky enough to break free from the ghost hallucination, you only need to find the object that blesses the ghost and destroy it?" ”

Zhang Qian nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Chen Yun has counted, so when he goes to exorcise ghosts with Senior Brother Lin Chen and the others in a few days, he only needs to find out where the things that provide energy to the ghosts are in advance, and there will be basically no danger.

Plus, it's the worst-case scenario.

If you encounter a weaker ghost, you may be able to grab a fire.

I don't know if I guessed what Chen Yun was thinking.

Zhang Qian smashed his mouth and added, "Actually, I don't have to worry, Senior Brother Lin Chen works in the talisman hall, and he is friendly with Cai Rujin, a personal disciple, every time he makes a talisman, he will leave one or two, and then let Senior Brother Cai inject the talisman into the real qi for him. ”

Chen Yun was even more relieved when he heard this, no wonder Zhang Qian and Li Si were so grateful to Lin Chen just now, and they really made money for nothing.

Li Si smiled again: "Don't say it's a ghost, even if it's sacred, we often encounter it." ”

Chen Yun said curiously: "In addition to the ancestor, what other sacredness have you encountered?" ”

Zhang Qian said with a big grin: "Marshal Zhao and the Buddhist Jialanguan Bodhisattva, they are close friends, often meet at night, sitting under the big locust tree at the foot of the mountain, well, you have been in the preaching temple for a long time, and you will have the opportunity to meet in the future." ”

The three of them chatted for a while, and then saw that the hour was almost the same, and went to the meditation hall to dine together.

……

The other side.

After Wang Tsaixi checked Chen Yun's body in the morning, he found Wang Laozhi as soon as possible.

At that time, Wang Laozhi was studying the Taoist scriptures in the house.

Wang Tsaixi knocked on the door three times, and only after getting permission did he push the door in, and said goodbye again, and did enough of the courtesies that the disciple should do, and then he said, "Master, the disciple has something to tell you." ”

Wang Laozhi didn't raise his head, "Well, you say." ”

Wang Tsaixi told Chen Yun about the physical examination before.

Wang Laozhi, who was still concentrating, was stunned for a moment, and looked sideways, "Do you mean that Chen Yun has built a foundation in more than ten days?" ”

Wang Zaxi nodded and said, "Yes, the disciple has examined his body, and about twenty percent of the lesions have been opened." ”

Wang Laozhi frowned and did not speak for a long time.

As an apprentice, the master didn't speak, and Wang Zaixi naturally didn't dare to say anything.

After a while, Wang Laozhi waved his hand and said, "I know, you go back and practice first." ”

Wang Tsaixi said respectfully: "The disciple retired. ”

With that, he stepped back to the threshold before turning and closing the door to leave.

At this time, Wang Laozhi lost the mind to study the Taoist scriptures.

He sat at the table and pondered for a long time.

Suddenly, Wang Laozhi stood up and hurriedly walked towards the inner courtyard.

After getting permission from Uncle Zheng Wen, Wang Laozhi entered the inner courtyard.

Came to a three-story red building.

Wang Laozhi, like Wang Zaixi just now, knocked on the door very respectfully.

Knock, knock.

Knock three times.

Immediately, Wang Laozhi reported to his family and said: "Teacher, it's me." ”

There was no sound inside for a long time.

Wang Laozhi said to himself: "Could it be that the master has something to do in the fairy land and has not yet returned to the body?" ”

Just as he was thinking about it, a woman's voice suddenly sounded as crisp and pleasant as the chirping of a yellow oriole, "Uncle Wang, the ancestor sensed that you were looking for him in the fairy land, but he was discussing important matters with Lao Jun, the Emperor of Heaven and other immortals, and he would not be able to return to the mortal world for a while, so let me ask what was the matter." ”

Wang Laozhi hurriedly knelt down when he heard this, "Report to the fairy girl, Lao Zhi has found a young talent, although he may have taken the Yin Yang Xingchen Grass, but in a few days, he has built a small foundation, and his talent is excellent, and he is expected to inherit my preaching and Taoist system, so Lao Zhi wants to show his teacher to see if he can be admitted to the door." ”

The person who spoke was none other than He Xiangu, one of the Eight Immortals.

She didn't respond to Wang Laozhi immediately, and seemed to be passing on a message to Zhong Liquan in Wonderland.

After waiting for about two or three minutes, she sent a message to Wang Laozhi and said: "The patriarch's words cannot be passed on lightly, you need to find out the character of this person, you tell this person's name, and I will try him in the future." ”

Wang Laozhi knew that this was the reason, and he thought that before Lu Dongbin got started, his master Zhong Liquan tried ten times to make sure that he had a good character, so he taught Lu Dongbin Dafa.

He informed He Xiangu of Chen Yun's information.

At the end, Wang Laozhi left the inner courtyard.

When leaving, Wang Laozhi secretly thought in his heart: "I hope that Senior Brother Chen can withstand the test of the Immortal Gu and enter my Dao Sect, after all, I like him very much." ”

He was willing to spend fifty taels of silver to buy Chen Yun back, and he naturally liked this little friend in his heart.

Now that Chen Yun has performed well, Wang Laozhi certainly hopes that Chen Yun can withstand the test and get started.

It's just that now there is an opportunity to get started.

Whether you can get started smoothly depends on Chen Yun's personal character.

Wang Laozhi knew that he couldn't disclose it, so he could only hope that there was really nothing wrong with Chen Yun's character.
