Chapter 33: The Five Hells and the Purifiers
"Hmm?" Lei Zi turned over and got out of the sleeping bag, his sleepy eyes were hazy, and he slowed down for a long time before saying, "Brother Han, you wrap your body tightly, it's so cold."
Han Xuan felt a chill from the time he went down to the ancient tomb, but he seemed to have become accustomed to this kind of coldness in the Yin Emperor Mountain, so he didn't feel any discomfort. But now that Lei Zi said this, he couldn't help but shiver.
"Okay, then I'll go rest, Brother Lei, be careful. Han Xuan couldn't care about the heat and cold, he was sleepy, and as soon as he turned around, he got into the sleeping bag.
Time passed minute by minute, and there seemed to be no concept of time in this thousand-year-old tomb, but Han Xuan was different, he had been cultivating for decades, and his routine had long since become a habit, so he could still roughly feel the time.
He didn't sleep well this night, or he deliberately didn't fall asleep, and Han Xuan always felt uneasy about this.
"Why is it so cold all of a sudden? Who !!?"
Han Xuan suddenly felt as if a cold air suddenly came from his neck, and then a pair of big hands grabbed his body! But Han Xuan was in a nightmare and couldn't wake up! He struggled, but his body didn't react at all, and he couldn't even make a sound!
Those big hands seemed to be made of bones, and when they grabbed it, there was a burst of pain on Han Xuan's body. Just as this pain hit, Han Xuan felt a little conscious, and suddenly his brain was hot, and Han Xuan's eyes opened half of it with great effort!
It was a white shadow! It was so similar to the previous shadow! After sweeping it, I saw that above the white shadow was a black face, and it was completely impossible to see the details of his facial features, or rather, his face had been dug down!
Han Xuan suddenly felt his body sink, and most of this half of consciousness was also cut off, and the eyes that the strong general opened seemed to be about to close at any time.
"Duh!" I don't know where this loud noise came from, Han Xuan's heart suddenly shook loudly, and he only felt that there were constantly voices in his head, and the roar was endless. Finally, after a few back and forth, the body's five senses opened up again, and everything returned to normal.
"Awake?" Fang Xuan saw that Han Xuan opened his eyes, and the left hand that carried him on the Tianming Acupoint was also retracted.
"Behind Uncle Fang!" Han Xuan shouted, because he saw that the white-clothed faceless ghost was now lying behind Fang Xuan!
He struggled to get up, but the strength of his whole body seemed to be drained, and he couldn't move the slightest.
"Huh?" Fang Xuan turned around and cautiously leaned back, but he didn't find the slightest abnormality.
"Uncle Fang, it's the white shadow we saw before, he's lying behind you!" Han Xuan said with all his strength.
"What?" Fang Xuan's voice trembled, and he said again, "Brother Lei, can you see something behind me?"
"Huh, behind you?" Lei Zi stood up from the stone steps, looked at it carefully for a while, and shook his head: "Nothing, Brother Han, you just had a nightmare, and you were choked, and Brother Fang was still in a hurry." This is called a ghost press in our place, in fact, it is just tired, nothing to do. ”
"Xiao Xuan estimates that you are tired, let's sleep for a while, eat something when we are done, we have to continue walking." Fang Xuan touched Han Xuan's head, and said to Lei Zi again: "Brother Lei, go and wake up Brother Liang, how long have you been asleep, and you are not afraid of catching a cold!"
Lei Zi responded, hehe, and kicked Liang Hua's sleeping bag with one kick. "Huh, where are the people? Why is Liang Hua gone?"
At this moment, Liang Hua's voice came from outside: "Hey, just go pee, do you still miss me?" ”
Fang Xuan didn't pay attention to him, and Lei Zi only scolded secretly and didn't pay any more attention, but Han Xuan fell into deep thought.
"Why? Why can't they see it, but I can see it? No! Something is strange!" Han Xuan closed his eyes and nodded thoughtfully, but he had some plans in his heart for this sudden accident.
After another two hours, Han Xuan's body had recovered, and after eating some dry food, his body was almost the same as before. So after a little tidying up, a group of four people went on the road again, of course, every time he walked a section, Lei Zi would leave a mark for Yu Liansheng, so that he wouldn't find it.
"Uncle Fang has just been poisoned and injured his vitality, and Brother Lei has also been invaded by that cold qi, and it is when he is weak, so that the ghost and demon can be attached to Uncle Fang's body and Brother Lei can't detect it. Han Xuan walked at the back of the line, thinking secretly in his heart.
There are many theories about the so-called hysteria, but most of them are related to ghosts, gods and demons. According to ancient mythology, people, gods, ghosts, and demons are each in one session, and each obeys the rules of that session, and once they cross the line, they will cause turmoil and will inevitably be punished.
Possession of evil spirits follows this theory, which is considered to be a ghost crossing the yang realm, and some yin and yang gentlemen, eminent monks or foreign wizards and priests act as messengers to uphold the laws of the human world, of course, the premise of all this is that you have to believe that there are ghosts and gods in these worlds.
Among China's vast Taoist branches, there is a line dedicated to the practice of ghost hunting, and this line has always been the most mysterious school, and its name is Maoshan Mountain. And the rest of the Taoist sects also inherit a few tricks of this kind of magic to a greater or lesser extent, because where there is an imbalance between yin and yang, there will be this phenomenon of "crossing the line".
And Laoshan is no exception, there are several secret techniques in the inheritance of Laoshan that are to eliminate ghosts and kill demons, but the cultivation of the caster is very high, so there are very few people who get the inheritance, so within the Taoist system, this ghost removal technique is also respected by Maoshan.
"Five Hells Refining Ghosts" Han Xuan unconsciously came up with this name in his mind, this technique was taught to him by Han Xuan's grandfather, and it was an unpassed method of the Han family.
People have five senses, and their meaning is divided into five prisons. As the so-called "appearance of blood is strong, you can avoid ghosts and gods", it is said that people's facial features are born with yang energy, and some people with standard facial features can even derive the laws of the yang world, reaching the point where all evils do not invade, but this kind of person is either a big official or a noble, which is very rare.
The technique of refining ghosts in the five hells is also very simple, just borrow the qi of the five directions of "southeast, northwest, and central", and then use secret techniques to introduce into the body of the person who has been invaded by evil things, you can derive some laws of heaven and earth, to achieve the effect of eliminating ghosts, and the strength of the spell depends entirely on the cultivator's cultivation.
And although Han Xuan could use the Xuan Hexagram to temporarily improve his cultivation and barely trigger this technique, at this time, he had to think of a problem, his body was completely isolated from heaven and earth!
"I really don't know if this is good or bad, but I have to try it anyway, and in a few hours, it is estimated that Uncle Fang will have to become the ration of this faceless ghost!"
Han Xuan's heart sank, and he had to throw it alone, and in the blink of an eye, the Xuan Ming Hexagram had already begun to operate in his body!
