4. Gas Eater
Fulong Township is one of the six townships of Jixiang County, with 11 villages under its jurisdiction and a population of tens of thousands.
The countryside is full of traffic, houses are dotted, most of the houses facing the main street are blue bricks and red tiles, and the thatched houses are built on the side of the road.
Zhang's medical hall is a blue brick house, it has more than ten zhang long on the side of the courtyard wall facing the street, the vermilion gate is one and a half zhang high, there is a half-person high stone lion on the left and right of the door, the big willow tree is planted next to the stone lion, and it is generous to look at.
Xu opened the door.
As the red solid wood door creaked open, Wang Qilin suddenly felt a cold breath coming to him.
"Taiyin Soul Breaking Knife" is about to move, and he can draw the knife A at any time.
Xu Da pointed to the door, and there was a piece of charred rune paper on the door beam.
This is the talisman root of the talisman posted by Du Cao the day before yesterday, and the talisman gall has been burned, and there are indeed sneaky patrons.
The scale of the medical hall is large, there are many houses, it is two in and two out, the inner room is the residence of the family, the outer room is the layout of the courtyard, there is a large garden, around the garden is a circle of houses, there are clinics, bedrooms, soup rooms, and schools.
Entering the door and glancing at the layout of the house, Xu Da was solemn: "The main house is flat and stable, the left wing room is like a green dragon guard, the right wing room is a white tiger lying on a high post, the middle is dazzling, the grass is contending, this house is arranged with a master's guidance, just like the dragon's lair, it is a lucky house." ”
Wang Qilin asked, "Do you know the art of feng shui?"
Xu Dadao: "I don't understand, this is what Master Cao said last time I came to Master Cao." ”
The medical hall is now deserted, and there is only one young man sweeping the floor.
Seeing the two of them enter the door, the sweeping young man walked up and arched his hand: "Lord Xu, you are here, who is this adult?"
Xu Dadao: "This is my brother Wang Qilin, the master specially asked for a good hand, Xiao Langjun, you just call him the seventh master." ”
Xiao Langjun gently bowed his hand to him: "It turned out to be Lord Wang, Lord Xu, you just mentioned Lord Du, when will Lord Du come?"
Xu Da said confidently: "Lord Du is not here, the trouble in the hospital is just a gas eater, a small role, it only dares to pester the dying, see how I it today!"
Xiao Langjun was stunned, his face full of disappointment.
He is the grandson of the Zhang family of the medical center, named Zhang Yuning, and Wang Qilin asked him to re-consult the medical center.
Nothing new has been discovered.
This thing is very simple, that is, the hospital is haunted, and there is a gas-eating ghost sucking the last breath of yang qi of the deceased, and people say it clearly: lend me a breath.
Of course, there is no return.
After listening to Zhang Yuning, Wang Qilin suddenly asked, "Were there any dead people in the hospital last night?"
Zhang Yuning shook his head, and he asked again: "Two adults, do you say that this qi-eating ghost can only suck the last yang qi of the dying person, is there any basis for this?"
Xu Dadao: "It said it itself, 'Heh breath is like ice, the pupils are shadowless, the sun sees the stars, and the sun is not warm, why is this?', do you know what this means?"
Zhang Yuning nodded: "The breath is cold, you can't see your own image in the eyes of others, you can see the stars during the day, and you don't feel hot even if you hold the stove, this is a sign before you die." ”
Xu Da patted his leg and said: "Yes, it is asking the patient whether you know that you are going to die? So I want me to say that it is very simple to deal with this qi eater, it can only pester the dying person, don't stay in your hospital to stay with those patients, so that the qi eater has no yang qi to suck, and will naturally leave after a long time." ”
Wang Qilin shook his head and said: "It's not proper, the qi eater may absorb the yang energy of the deceased, it may be easy to suck this breath, but it is difficult to absorb the yang energy of a normal person, if there is no dead person, it may bother to suck the yang energy of a normal person, wouldn't that be bad?"
"Do you think normal people's yang energy is so easy to absorb? If a gas eater can absorb normal people's yang energy, then it has achieved cultivation, and we can't deal with it. Xu Da sneered, "Okay, let's go eat first, Uncle is hungry." ”
After breakfast, Wang Qilin carried a waist knife and patrolled the infirmary.
Nothing was found.
He had made rounds more than a dozen times throughout the day, and he had gotten acquainted with the medical hall, but he had not noticed any trace of the gas eater.
The reason why I patrol so many times is also to familiarize myself with the environment, so that if I can't beat the ghost at night, at least I can run more smoothly.
He had to plan to run away, because the hospital ran up and down first, saying that it was to not interfere with their work at night.
But they were left with dinner, and thankfully it was delicious.
Xu Da thinks the stewed preserved fish is delicious:(* ̄) ̄)
After eating, the sun sets, twilight falls, and the moon looms in the night sky.
The weather wasn't good tonight, and there were always dark clouds drifting in the night sky.
As a result, the dim moon will be blocked and exposed for a while, which makes people feel unsure.
The early spring breeze is strong, and the bare branches are blown against each other to make a 'salashala' sound.
I couldn't detect anything during the day, but at night the voice was very clear.
There is a circle of lanterns in the infirmary.
Under the night breeze, the scarlet lanterns swayed slowly, and the candles inside were blown by the wind and danced endlessly, so that the lights flickered on and off, but added a bit of tranquility to the vast courtyard.
Xu Da looked at the lantern and frowned: "It's better not to have such a little light, what do you say you lit it for?"
Wang Qilin asked, "Didn't you order it?"
As soon as his voice fell, the two of them stood up with their waist knives in their hands.
The wind was cold, like a cloudy wind.
Xu Dadao was big, he squinted his eyes and slowly glanced around and said, "I'm afraid this gas eater is coming." Remember, ghosts are afraid of yang energy and wicked people, and the more confident you are, the more it can't help you! But if you're afraid of it, hum!"
Wang Qilin smiled: "I'm not afraid, what is there to be afraid of the gas eater?"
The gas-eating ghost is not an evil ghost, according to the "Persona" record, this ghost is a person who did not care about his parents, wife and children, did not fulfill his responsibilities, and only cared about his own pleasure after death, and there is no resentment.
Most air-eaters are sensitive to smells and can distinguish between heaven and earth.
In the underworld, Hades sent them to guard the gates, to discern the scent of the ghosts that mingled with the multitude, and if any of the ghosts did evil, Hades would send the spirit-eaters to find them.
His spirit had seen such a ghost on Earth, but there the Gas-Eater was punished to take the form of a dog, called a police dog.
This kind of gas eater is not a threat to people, and will even be driven by people to find things, so don't worry about it.
In addition, there are some qi eaters who are different, they will devour people's breath, this is the beginning of cultivation.
Their cultivation process starts from the last breath of yang energy of the dying person, and gradually they have the Tao and then inhale the yang energy of normal people, and it is not easy to deal with at this time.
Xu Da nodded with satisfaction when he saw that his face was as usual, and threw him a small ball made of hay: "Hold it for uncle." ”
Wang Qilin got the ball and asked, "What is this?"
Xu Dadao: "Bingtaizhu, have you heard of it?"
"Yes. Wang Qilin was stunned.
Bingtai is a plant, and it also has a name called yellow grass mugwort, so the small beads are actually woven from wormwood.
However, the wormwood it uses is not ordinary, and it grows in old graves.
This kind of wormwood is full of yin qi from germination to maturity, and is very sensitive to yin qi, and it will be cold when it comes into contact with yin qi, and the thicker the yin qi, the cooler it is, like a Xiaoice block, so it is named after 'ice platform' instead of wormwood.
In addition, people's mouths are also sensitive to heat and cold, so as long as they come into contact with yin qi after holding the wormwood ball, they can sense it.
In addition, wormwood and calamus, pomegranate flowers, garlic, shandan flowers and called the five rui in the sky, have the effect of warding off evil spirits, and the mouth contains ice beads can also resist yin and evil into the body, which is a grass for two purposes.
The Bingtai Bead is not a rare magic weapon, but it is not something that ordinary people can touch, seeing Xu Da giving him an Ice Bead so casually, Wang Qilin guessed that he either had some skills or some background.
He guessed again that Xu Da had some background.
