Volume 2 Eventful Autumn Twists and Turns Chapter 89 The Art of the Immortal Spirit The Soul of the Mountain
Chen San didn't understand in a fog, and it wasn't until lunch that Chen San knew that when he played the black tile, Yang Chengzi knew that the child's soul was gone.
This can make Chen San angry, you can say it when you're done, isn't it nice for me to talk to the two girls? Spending so much time, watching you do Dharma for a long time there, the key has nothing to do with yourself.
Chen San stared at Yang Chengzi with disgust, babbling and complaining, Yang Chengzi ignored him and didn't talk to Sanyu, pondering while eating.
Thinking of the ringing of the terror bell that night, and the sound of horseback riding and running, could it have anything to do with the child?
I can't go this time, I don't solve it, I always feel that I owe this child, and I can't go away, when the time comes, I find the Zen master of Doom, and I have to come back from here, if I go through this, I know how many people have died, then how can this cause and effect end.
Yang Chengzi finished eating with a sad face, and Chang Yu and Chen Xin also learned about the child from Chen San's mouth, and they were frightened and regretful.
After thinking about it for a long time, Yang Chengzi simply said what he thought in his heart.
"This matter has happened to us, and I don't know what to do, whatever, maybe we won't be able to leave for a while, and if the phantom demon in Chen San's body is not eliminated for one more day, it will be dangerous for one more day;
Several people were speechless for a while, Chen Xin looked at Chen San, and turned his head to look at Yang Chengzi, "This kid is really pitiful, but this kind of thing can't happen again, if it's the same as Chen Jiazhen, what's the difference between it and the phantom demon." ”
Sanyu also nodded in agreement with what Chen Xin said, Sanyu had been to Chenjiazhen and Jingyao Village, and the terrible scene was vivid.
"Well, stay. ”
Yang Chengzi turned his head to look at Chen San and asked what he meant.
The flower on Chen San's head was extremely conspicuous, he played with the teacup in his hand, looked at Yang Chengzi looking at him, and said stupidly: "I'm fine, stay." ”
Although a few words were understated, Yang Chengzi didn't see a trace of hesitation in his eyes, and with a few of them deciding to stay together, Yang Chengzi no longer hesitated.
"Okay, I'll go and do the rest of the rhamma, let's stay, settle this matter first and then leave. ”
With a firm gaze, Yang Chengzi walked out, and Chen San drank two sips of tea and ran out, but instead of following Yang Chengzi, he went to the village to hang out.
When it was almost dinner, he came back from outside, with the smell of cigarette sticks on his body, and when he came back, Yang Chengzi had already sat there with the two girls to eat.
Chen San looked at the three of them with a depressed face, "Why don't you call me when you still eat it yourself?"
Chen Xin's eyebrows and eyes curled, "You didn't say where you went, where we went to find you, and didn't you come back by yourself, come and eat, the meal is ready for you." ”
Chen San saw that Chen Xin was smiling so movingly, he forgot everything, and sat down on the table stupidly and pulled up the meal.
Sanyu asked Chen Sanyi what he was doing in the afternoon, and he remembered it and put down the dishes and chopsticks.
"By the way, do you know what I'm doing that afternoon?"
Yang Chengzi furrowed his brows, "Chatting with the old man in the village?"
Chen San looked at Yang Chengzi with a surprised face, and arched his hands with great admiration, "Yang Daxian, if you have time to teach my junior brother two tricks, there is no one else who has your face-to-face kung fu." ”
Chen Xin shook her head, "Everyone can guess the smell of your cigarette stick, so why don't you use faces." ”
Sanyu was also anxious, "Let's get down to business, look at you like this, it seems that you have discovered something?"
Chen San wanted to show off, but he knew that they had all guessed it, and he looked embarrassed.
"Tell me, I found more than ten old men in the afternoon, and I talked about this village, what do you think I found?"
Yang Chengzi patted Chen San's shoulder, "I still have to do things, say it quickly, don't sell Guanzi." ”
"This village is dying every year. ”
As soon as Chen San's words came out, Sanyu and Chen Xin got up and began to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and Yang Chengzi also got up and prepared to go out the door.
Chen San was anxious, "Don't don't, don't don't, you sit down first, listen to me, really, what kind of dishes and chopsticks are collected." ”
Chen Xin is not used to Chen San, "If you talk nonsense again, we won't listen." ”
"Kid, kid, a kid dies every year, almost at this time. Hearing this, Yang Chengzi felt that something was wrong, and Sanyu and Chen Xin didn't intervene again.
"There are more than a dozen old men, four or five children in the family have died, some remember the day of Bailu, and some don't remember the time, but it is about this time, do you think about it, when did that child die?"
Yang Chengzi pinched his fingers and counted it, very surprised.
"Bai Lu? ”
Chen San nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, although there are a few old men who can't remember the time, I guess it is also the day of Bailu, that is to say, as soon as Bailu arrives in this village every year, a child will die." ”
Chen Xin and Sanyu were stupid, and Yang Chengzi also frowned and couldn't understand, what happened to Bai Lu? What does a very ordinary solar term have to do with children?
"Are the children that old?"
"No, the younger ones are a few months, the older ones are in their teens, there are more than 100 families here, I asked such a dozen old men, and half of the dead children are almost half, this matter is not simple!"
Chen Xin couldn't figure it out, "Isn't Bailu a very ordinary solar term? Isn't it the same everywhere? Why does this village kill people?"
"Yes, yes, I've never seen anything special about Bailu in a book, isn't it just that the weather is getting colder, and it won't be dead. Sanyu echoed.
Yang Chengzi looked at the teacup on the table, puzzled.
"What else did they say? How did all these children die?"
"Some, like Chenjiazhen, died while asleep, and some fell asleep and woke up in the morning to find themselves dead in the well. ”
"Didn't the villagers look for someone to come and see?"
"I looked for it, but I didn't see anything, and the silver cost a lot, so I won't look for it later. ”
After Chen San's inquiry, the matter really has some eyebrows, although he doesn't know much, but this matter is definitely not a coincidence, there must be some person or ghost thing who did this.
But at the moment, several people are confused, Yang Chengzi can't see anything, Chen San and they can't see it, Yang Chengzi thought in his heart.
"According to Chen San's statement, it's not that there is no way, I'll do things first, it's not too late today, it's about an hour, you prepare some paper, pen and ink, and two bowls of raw rice, and wait for me to come back." ”
Hearing that Yang Chengzi seemed to have a way, Chen San's eyes lit up.
"What's the solution, let's hear it. ”
Yang Chengzi waved his hand, "The secret of heaven must not be leaked, you go and prepare everything first and wait for me, remember to ask for two bowls of raw rice, don't cook it." ”
Chen San looked at Yang Chengzi with disappointment, and there was nothing he could do if he didn't say anything, so he could only pout and follow Yang Chengzi out.
Yang Chengzi went to the child's house, Chen San went to the village chief's house to gather paper, pen and ink and two large bowls of raw rice, and brought them back, and the three of them lit two oil lamps and sat at the table, you look at me, I look at you, and wait for Yang Chengzi to come back.
After more than an hour, Yang Chengzi finally came back, looking a little tired, but Chen San didn't mean to let him sit down, so he hurriedly greeted him, pulled it to the table, and stuffed the pen into his hand, the paper had already been laid, signaling that Yang Chengzi could start.
Yang Chengzi shook his head and put down his pen.
"What's the hurry, let me drink saliva, and this is not written by me, it is written by Sanyu. ”
Sanyu stared at Yang Chengzi with wide eyes, "Why did I write it?"
Yang Chengzi picked up the teacup and drank it.
"They can't read, I want to do it, you can only write. ”
Sanyu looked at Chen San and Chen Xin, the two looked at Sanyu embarrassedly, she really didn't know how to read, Sanyu had a teacher to teach her, of course she knew how to read.
Sanyu asked Chen San to grind ink, and Yang Chengzi asked Chen Xin to stand next to Chen San, vacating the bench opposite Sanyu.
Two large bowls of rice were spread on the table in front of this bench, just like the white paper in front of Sanyu, half of the white paper and half of the raw rice on the table, ready to start.
Yang Chengzi rubbed his eyes, "Wait a minute, what I ask, what you write, what raw rice answers, you just write its answer under my question." ”
Chen San was stunned, and Yang Chengzi looked at Chen San's stupid appearance and explained.
"When the words will appear on the raw rice, Sanyu will write them down. ”
Sanyu nodded, although she was also a little confused, but she understood what Yang Chengzi meant, and even wrote down the questions with the answers.
Yang Chengzi took out a yellow talisman without runes from his pocket, sandwiched it between his two fingers, and read it vertically, Chen San didn't hear what he was reading clearly, and after a while, Yang Chengzi stepped on his right foot, and the yellow talisman burned with a "boom".
A cloud of aura came out from under the ground, and a ball of green and shiny things, like a vegetable basket, floated on the bench, Yang Chengzi sensed the aura and began to ask.
"You're the mountain spirit of Fengming Mountain?"
As soon as Yang Chengzi finished asking, a yes appeared on the flat rice on the table, and Sanyu looked at it in surprise, and forgot to write down the 'yes'.
"The child who died in the past two days, is it the work of a ghost?" another one appeared.
Chen Xin saw that Sanyu didn't move, and hurriedly pushed Sanyu, and Sanyu began to write.
"Is this ghost on this mountain?"
"A ghost, or a group of ghosts?" a lot, and two words appeared.
At this time, Yang Chengzi already had the bottom in his heart, which was those ghosts that night.
"Why did they kill this child?" The word spell appeared, and Yang Chengzi wrinkled his brows and didn't understand.
"Someone cast a spell for them to kill?" another one was revealed.
"Then why only kill one?" The word Bai Lu appeared impressively, but Yang Chengzi and the others didn't know what it meant.
"Does Bai Lu kill a child every year?" is the word that appears.
"Who's cursed?" the word evil master revealed.
Yang Chengzi furrowed his brows, what does it mean that the evil master cursed them to kill a child every year?
He continued to ask, "Why does the evil master kill a child every year?"
This time, the rice was just re-paved, and there was no word, indicating that the mountain spirit did not know about it.
Chen San couldn't help it, "Is the evil master still here?"
Yang Chengzi continued to ask, "Who are these ghosts before they were alive?"
"Who were they killed?" the word evil master reappeared.
Yang Chengzi was shocked, the evil master killed these soldiers, and then put a curse?
"Did the evil master kill them that night?"
"These soldiers were stationed here before?" is the word that appears.
"Why did the evil master kill those soldiers?" The word child appeared, and when he saw the child, Yang Chengzi felt that this matter seemed to be about to be approached.
"The evil master killed those soldiers for the sake of a child, and then cast a curse?" is the word appearing.
Yang Chengzi knew a rough idea, but he always felt that there seemed to be something shortcoming.
At this time, Chen Xin asked, "Are these soldiers going to kill this evil master and the child?"
Yang Chengzi looked at Chen Xin suspiciously, probably thinking why Chen Xin asked like this, but a word appeared on the re-leveled rice.
Yang Chengzi was stunned, Chen Xin actually guessed something, and just wanted Chen Xin to continue asking, the aura dissipated.
Chen San hadn't seen it yet, so he asked Yang Chengzi to get it again, but Yang Chengzi shook his head.
"This is the aura of the mountain spirit, it will be gathered in ten years, and it will take ten years to let it come over. ”
Chen San was surprised, didn't he ask anything? Wasn't it for nothing?
Yang Chengzi looked at the questions and answers written by Sanyu, "That's not necessarily, let's study these questions and the answers of the mountain spirit, maybe this matter will be understood." ”
"yes, we already know a lot, and maybe these answers will make up a whole story. Sanyu said excitedly.
Chen San came back to his senses, "What did you answer, say it and listen to it, I don't know what it was written." ”
Sanyu told Yang Chengzi what Yang Chengzi asked and what the mountain spirit answered one by one, Chen Xin, this girl is smart, she knew it as soon as she heard it, she had guessed seventy-seven-eighty-eight, and as soon as Sanyu said this, she connected the matter.
"According to what Sister Sanyu said just now, the thing is probably like this, when there may not have been Fengxi Village before, there were some soldiers stationed here, and they wanted to kill the evil master and the child brought by the evil master, Bai Lu in the middle of the night, the evil master and the child appeared, but they were killed by the evil master in turn, and they were also cursed, so there are a group of ghosts on this mountain, because of this curse, these ghosts will kill a child of this village every year in Bai Lu, I am afraid that these ghosts are treating the children of this village as the children brought by the evil master. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Chengzi nodded again and again, "You girl is much smarter than Chen San, so according to your meaning, why did those soldiers kill evil masters and children?" Chen San pouted and looked unconvinced.
"I can't say clearly, but the soldiers all listen to the general, maybe the people above want to kill this child, or maybe they just pass by here with the child. ”
"If you want to know why these ghosts only kill one child a year, I'm afraid we have to go to the mountains and find those ghosts to find out why, maybe as Chen Xin said, they treat the children in the village as the children of the evil master. ”
Chen San touched his chin, "Is there such a spell? let them die and not be reincarnated, repeat what they did before every day, and kill a child on the day of Bailu?"
"There is definitely no such technique in the righteous way, and it is not necessary for evil cultivators, many evil cultivators' spells are against the avenue of heaven and earth, and the effect of the spell is naturally against the sky. ”
"What the hell is the situation, or we will not know until we go up the mountain tonight, but I feel that Chen Xin is right, this child is very light, it is not easy to live to such a big age, if they find a child every year, sooner or later it will be his turn." ”
Chen San glared at the bull's eye, "Who and who are we you just talking about?"
Yang Chengzi smiled, "Could it be that Chen Xin and I go up the mountain, can you be a little more instigated?"
Sanyu and Chen Xin covered their mouths with a smile, and Chen San's embarrassed face twitched and swallowed.
"A bunch of ghosts, why don't you go by yourself. ”
Yang Chengzi shook his head, "I took you up to see things, my heavenly eyes can't see it, and it's not a very powerful ghost, I don't open the heavenly eye, I will lose my life, you can just take a look at it for me." ”
After that, before going up the mountain, Chen San was chattering and complaining in the house, in short, it meant that he didn't want to go, but no one paid attention to him, Yang Chengzi lay down for a while, and asked Sanyu to call him after an hour, Sanyu and Chen Xin always had endless whispers, and they left Chen San aside, and he was angry and fell asleep after a while.
Seeing that the hour was almost up, Sanyu pushed Yang Chengzi awake, Yang Chengzi opened his eyes, saw that it was Sanyu, smiled slightly, sat up, saw that Chen San next to him was sleeping soundly, shook his head, and slapped a palm on Chen San's thigh.
Chen San was instantly woken up, sat up with his thighs touched, and slapped Yang Chengzi on the back.
"What are you filming me for?"
"There's a mosquito, I'll shoot it for you, don't thank me. The two of them chattered to their feet.
Fengxi Village is at the foot of Fengming Mountain, and there are many roads up the mountain, so Yang Chengzi naturally chose the best road.
Halfway through, Chen San asked suspiciously, "I said, the mountain is so big, how can you find it?"
"If you were to lie in ambush on the mountain, to kill a passerby, where would you be ambushed?"
"That's naturally a place where you can see below and go down the mountain quickly!"
"That's it, you can see below, isn't it on the edge of the cliff, let's just look for it along the edge of the cliff, it will definitely not be too far away." ”
Chen San glanced at Yang Chengzi, "I thought you were going to use some kind of Dao technique, so you can look for it blindly." ”
"The pathfinder charm is not suitable for use in the mountains, and the yellow charm is gone, you have to buy some when you get to the town, isn't it good to use your brain, is your brain used to marry a daughter-in-law?"
While the two of them went up the mountain, they chattered endlessly, the mountain was not very high, and after walking a mile, they reached the top of the mountain.
From the top of the mountain, the rolling peaks really look like a hen, and the highest place where they stand, which is the position of the chicken's buttocks.
When they reached the top of the mountain, the two stopped talking, Chen San looked left and right, Yang Chengzi also calmly perceived, the two walked all the way south, and after a while, Yang Chengzi sensed the ghost qi, there was no resentment, and the simple ghost qi came to his face.
"It's nearby, be careful!"
When Chen San heard Yang Chengzi say this, he was so frightened that he stopped moving for a while, and stopped looking at it.
The black rumbling was there, there were no torches, and he couldn't see anything clearly by the moonlight, and he knew that the ghosts were not one, but a group, and Chen San was very nervous.
Looking around and didn't see any ghosts, Chen San grabbed Yang Chengzi and walked forward for a while, Yang Chengzi suddenly stopped, a bad feeling came to Chen San's heart, Yang Chengzi blocked him from seeing, Chen San stretched out his head and looked out, he was stupid at that time.
Dense ghosts, with swords and spears, dressed in armor, three ghosts who seem to be generals sitting on the stone and talking, there are dozens of ghosts holding spears guarding beside them, and there are a few ghosts lying on the edge of the cliff, looking down.
Not far away, other ghosts sat in a circle, as if they were roasting fire, not only the souls of people, but also horses, and the souls of the three horses were confined to this place by the spell, and they could not be reincarnated.
