Chapter 10: Stealing Lives
Huang Donglai came to rectify this one, Sun Yixiang understood it, but the second master Zuo and the master and apprentice of Fairy Hu didn't understand, and they didn't think about the gods and ghosts at all, anyway, they followed in first and took a look.
So, the five of them walked into the room one after another under the leadership of Huang Donglai.
This room is not a first-class guest room, because the upper room of the inn is generally on the second floor, and it is very inconvenient for Xie Sanye to carry it up and down, so Zuo Erye can only find a decent room on the first floor for him to settle.
Fortunately, the space in this room is quite large, and even if so many people come in, it doesn't seem crowded.
"Second master, you're here. "Xie Run's sickbed has been waiting for people, and there are two people, and at this moment, as soon as they saw Zuo Dingkun come in, they both got up and came over to salute.
"Well, how is the third master?" Zuo Dingkun responded, "I'm not on this day, has he ever woken up?"
The two subordinates didn't have much to say, just shook their heads.
"Alas......" Zuo Dingkun sighed, "You guys go down first." ”
"Yes, Second Master. The two men received the order and quickly exited the room.
At this time, Huang Donglai stepped forward and walked to Xie Run's sickbed to take a look.
Brother Huang was indeed a little surprised when he looked at it......
The last time he saw Xie Run, this Third Master Xie was tall and strong, with a fierce dragon and a tiger, and he was really a man like a stone tower.
But right now, this Xie Run is in shape, his face is pale, even through the quilt and white bedclothes, he can see that the outline of his upper body is already skin and bones.
"Sure enough......" Huang Donglai stared at Xie Run for a few seconds, and then muttered such a sentence.
Immediately afterwards, he turned around and handed the bronze mirror in his hand to Sun Yihuan: "Brother Sun, you help me hold this and use the mirror to shine on Brother Xie's chest." ”
"Oh...... Good. Sun Yihuan didn't think much about it, and took the bronze mirror in response.
At the same time, Huang Donglai had already sat on the edge of the bed, and as soon as he lifted the quilt and raised his hand, he helped Xie Run to sit up.
This Xie Run was already in a comatose state, and he couldn't resist, but when the second master saw Sun Huang and the others' sudden move, he immediately exclaimed: "Two, what are you doing?"
"Brother Zuo, don't panic, we're saving people. Huang Donglai said as he sat cross-legged behind Xie Run.
Seeing this, Sun Yihuan also stretched out his arm in time, raised the bronze mirror to Xie Run's front, and aimed it at the latter's chest.
Two seconds later, Huang Donglai calmed down a little, then put his palms together, his ten fingers changed rapidly, his hands knotted the demon seal, and he lightly chanted the nine-character mantra in his mouth - "Lin", "Bing", "Fight", "Person", "Both", "Array", "Column", "Front", "Xing".
Every time he knotted a handprint, he would hit this seal on Xie Run's back, although the force was not large, but every time he hit it, Xie Run's whole person would be shocked like electricity.
In this process, the bronze mirror held by Sun Yihuan also began to change, and its mirror surface soon changed from orange and yellow to dim and difficult to distinguish.
When Huang Donglai finished reciting the nine-character mantra, there was a faint sound like a child crying in the mirror, which made people's scalp tingle.
"Oh Jiri! Brother Huang, what's the situation?" Now, Brother Sun was in trouble, but he didn't dare to throw the mirror away, so he could only quickly ask Huang Dong in a loud voice what to do.
"Wrap it in a cloth first. Huang Dong came here, just wiped the sweat oozing from his forehead, and replied casually.
When Sun Yihuan heard this, he made a lightning move, and at that time he tore off a large piece of the cloth curtain next to Xie Run's bed, wrapped the bronze mirror in cloth after dividing it by two, and then threw his hand and put it on the table next to him.
Not to mention, it really works, the mirror is wrapped in cloth, and the light is gone, and the sound inside stops.
At this time, Huang Donglai also slowly got off the bed, put Xie Run back into a state of lying flat, and let out a sigh.
The operation of the two of them can make Zuo Dingkun, Hu Ning'er and Xin'er on the side look stupid.
After being stunned for a while, Second Master Zuo opened his mouth and asked, "Brother Huang Xian, what was ...... you just now?"
"Don't hurry up and talk about that ...... first" Huang Donglai was not in a hurry to explain, he said, and arched his hand towards Na Hu Ning'er, "Senior Hu, you can take a look now, can he still save this Xie Sanye?"
Hearing this, Hu Ning'er hesitated, but quickly nodded.
She is a senior master and a woman, and she can't sit directly on the edge of Xie Run's bed like Huang Donglai, so she first asked Xin'er to move a chair for her, put it on the side of the bed, and then went over to sit down.
The diagnosis process is not very complicated, after all, there were no laboratory tests and imaging tests in those days......
Hu Ning'er just touched Xie Run's pulse, stretched out her hand to probe the other party's heart, and then leaned closer to listen to the other party's breathing, and then stood up.
"There is salvation. When she said these two words, her expression and tone seemed a little complicated.
"What?" and when Zuo Dingkun heard this, his eyes immediately widened, and he was surprised, "Fairy!
Hu Ning'er didn't answer Zuo Dingkun's question, but looked at Huang Donglai, frowned and asked, "Huang Shaoxia, I have been practicing medicine for many years, and I have indeed seen a lot of strange things, but today's incident ...... Indeed, I am puzzled. She paused, and continued, "Yesterday, I saw that this Xie Sanye was already in decline, yin and yang were deficient, and he was terminally ill...... How the hell did you do that?"
Huang Donglai listened, glanced at the three people other than Sun Yihuan, and was silent for a few seconds before replying: "Hmm...... I say that I have said it, but if I say it, you may not believe it......"
"Believe! Believe!" Zuo Dingkun interjected at this time, "Brother Huang Xian, you saved my third brother's life today, you can believe anything Zuo Mou!"
"Believe it or not, you have to hear it to know, Huang Shaoxia said it doesn't matter. Hu Ning'er also answered.
"Hmm......" Huang Donglai nodded, "There is one more point, I have finished speaking, you don't have to spread it around." ”
"What do you say?" Xin'er was upset when she heard this, "Is my master like the kind of person who loves to chew the root of his tongue?"
"She's really not like ......" In the next second, Sun Yihuan spit out at the right time, "...... But you're alike. ”
"Hey!" Xin'er is about to quarrel with Sun Yi.
"Xin'er!" Fortunately, Hu Ning'er murdered her in time to stop her from killing herself.
"Huang Shaoxia. Seeing that Xin'er shut up aggrievedly, Hu Ning'er continued, "We who practice medicine have our own set of rules, and things about patients will not be spread outside, so you can rest assured." ”
"Zuo can also take a life guarantee, and he will never pass it on!" Zuo Dingkun also answered at this time.
"No, no. But Huang Donglai said, "You still have to talk about this matter, Brother Zuo, and you will understand after listening to it." ”
"Alright, almost. Sun Yihui was already a little annoyed, so he kicked Huang Donglai at that time, "Hurry up and say, it will be dark when you sell Guan Zi again." ”
Huang Donglai pursed his lips, glanced at Brother Sun, and then said: "Brother Xie, this is actually not a 'disease', but a 'curse'. ”
"You mean ......" At this moment, Hu Ning'er's expression changed slightly, and she seemed to understand why the other party was worried that she would not believe it after hearing it...... Did he have any spell?"
"Ha!" Na Xin'er laughed directly, "Huang Gongzi, seeing that you are dressed as a Taoist priest, I thought you were pretending to hide people's eyes, but I didn't expect you to be real?"
"Yes, I did. Unexpectedly, in the face of this ridiculous sentence, Huang Donglai admitted it calmly, which made Na Xin'er a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, Huang Donglai quickly followed the words and continued: "This hand in Xie Sanye's is called 'Stealing Life', which is a kind of Yin damage spell that steals the soul and steals the life......
"To cast this spell, you must first take the ashes of the boy who has not been born after death, fill an incense burner, and then insert an incense stick into it, and then chant the mantra with the power of the Dao, and wait for the incense to slowly submerge into the furnace, leaving only a thread of needles, quickly pull it out, and you can get a rope.
"Thirty-six copper coins were strung with this rope and handed to someone else, and as long as the person accepted it, it would be regarded as a stolen life and 'bolted', and then it would be useless for him to throw away the copper coins and ropes......
"On any day after that, whenever the caster burns incense in the censer of that practice, the person who receives the spell will be drained of his spirit. ”
When Huang Dong came here, he glanced at Xie Run on the bed again, and then continued: "When I walked to the door of this house before, I found that there was a yin aura in the house, and I thought that there were ghosts lurking, so I took the bronze mirror first and was prepared.
"Then I came into the house, and when I approached Xie Sanye, I found that his 'Bird Yin', 'Swallowing Thief', and 'Removing Filth' were all almost exhausted......
"This is the main qi of the bird's yin, the main force of the thief, and the main essence of the defilement...... These three spirits were taken away by the rope and replaced with the yin shou of the little ghost, so his body is difficult to save as a miracle doctor. ”
At this point, Huang Donglai paused again, and continued in a tone of exclamation: "To be honest, today is Xie Sanye, relying on the foundation of that pure yang boy's skill, he has been living for seven or eight days...... If it were someone else, once the person who cast the spell started to do it, it would not be seven days, but I am afraid that it would not even be able to last for three days......"
"How can this be reasonable!" After Huang Donglai's words were finished, Zuo Dingkun couldn't sit still, and immediately shouted angrily, "Who is it!
"Well...... Huang Donglai touched his chin and read, "The location of the spell caster can't be found just by this spell itself, at least I don't have that ability, but if Brother Zuo wants to track it down, I can also help." ”
"Brother Huang Xian, I'm ......" Zuo Dingkun was just about to answer.
Over there, Hu Ning'er interrupted first: "Two, wait." As she spoke, she got up and walked to the door, "Tell me what is going on, I've heard enough...... No matter how much it is, it's better for me not to listen. ”
"Oh! Yes, yes. "Zuo Dingkun reacted at this time, this wonderful hand fairy master and apprentice are just here to see the third brother, and it is indeed inappropriate for them to know about chasing the murderer," Zuo Mougong sent Fairy Hu and Xin'er girl. ”
To make a long story short, how Zuo Dingkun sent Hu Ning'er's master and apprentice out, and how Hu Ning'er wrote a prescription to prescribe medicine to Xie Run, we won't go into details.
Let's talk about the double harmonic side first......
When the other three people left the room, Sun Yihuan immediately pointed to the bronze mirror wrapped in cloth on the table, and asked Huang Donglai, "Color, is it okay to put this thing here?"
"Oh, well, it's fine, just don't see the light. Huang Dong said back and forth, "But this bronze mirror can't be used anymore, it has to be taken to the temple and put in front of the Buddha for a period of time, and the little ghosts inside can be turned back into an ordinary mirror when they are overdosed, so I still have to buy another piece when I go back." ”
"Oh......" Sun Yihun nodded, and after asking him what he was most anxious to confirm, he changed the conversation and said again, "Eh, you say...... Brother Xie, do we really want to investigate this?"
"What are you doing?" Huang Donglai knew the meaning of Sun Yihuan's words as soon as he heard it, "Panicked?"
"That must be a bit of a panic. "Don't look at Sun Yihuan who didn't speak just now, in fact, he had already calculated the accounts clearly in his heart, "Dare to attack the three masters of a Yong Dart Bureau, and he really knows how to spell, which shows that the other party has both courage and ability, and eighty percent is a 'demon way'...... With your three-legged cats, can you deal with it?"
"Ha!" Huang Donglai is indeed a three-legged cat, so he used this dry smile to hide his weakness, "Brother Sun, you still don't know much about my strength......
"What strength are you?"
"Hmm...... How do you say this......"
"Understood, I don't have much strength......"
"No...... Although my strength in the Dao Fa is average......"
"But?"
"Uh...... It doesn't seem to be anything, but I'm not very strong in other aspects. ”
"Aren't you the 'God of the Twelve Noble Truths'?"
"That's not very useful when fighting. ”
"Then what do you say to the person surnamed Zuo to help?"
"Oh, it's all already pretended to be here, I always follow the trend to say it, I don't necessarily have a sentence...... I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't afford to provoke the person who put the curse, so I have to check it yourself. ”
The more these two people talked, the quieter they became, and just at this time, there was also a movement in the corridor where Zuo Dingkun came back, and they put on that enthusiastic and calm look again.
"Two!" And what about Zuo Dingkun, as soon as he entered the room, he lifted his front placket and knelt down again, "Today, my third brother can pick up a life, and it all depends on the two of you to take a righteous shot, please accept Zuo's worship again!"
Sun Yihuan stepped forward to help him again and said a few polite cheap words.
But Zuo Dingkun took it seriously, and swore solemnly: "In the future, if the two of you have any use to get a place for Zuo and me to dart a game, just open your mouth, no matter whether you go up the knife mountain or down the sea of fire, Zuo will not give up!"
On this day, the three of them didn't go on to say much, because to find out who the person who had cursed Xie Run was, it must be the most efficient to wait for Xie Run to wake up and ask him himself.
As for Xie Run, although the spell has been lifted, according to Hu Ning'er, Xie Sanye will have to wake up slowly from the time he takes the medicine, at least for a day or two.
Therefore, after chatting with Zuo Dingkun for a few more words that day, Shuanghuan said goodbye to the other party for the time being and went to find another inn in the city to stay.
Although Zuo Dingkun tried his best to keep them, wanting them to live in this inn, and even planned to give up his room, Sun and Huang still refused - after all, they are still young and promising young men with good conduct in the eyes of others, and their image is relatively tall, if they live together for a few days and deepen their understanding, then they will have no image at all.
So, two more days passed in this blink of an eye.
Finally, on the morning of the third day when Shuanghe arrived in this Anqiu, the tiger in the stone Xie Run...... Woke up.
