Taboos in the Underworld: Starting from being paid a lot of money to beg for a child

"Is something wrong?" I asked again doubtfully.

"Are you still thinking about Tongtong?"

Dawei asked coldly after closing the door.

I shook my head speechlessly, took out the magic whip and ghost-killing stick from my backpack and said:

"No, I'm here to do business, I don't have time to talk nonsense with you."

Dawei walked over in two quick steps, pulled me by the lapel and said:

"Ouch, you brought out your weapon, do you still want to fight?"

"My dear, if we have something to talk about, don't be so excited. Don't be afraid even if he wants to try to influence me. I will always be yours."

Qian Xiaotong said angrily on the side.

I almost laughed when I heard this.

I reached out and knocked off Dawei's hand and said to Qian Xiaotong:

"If this is what you want to say, then get out quickly and don't waste my time. I'm here to help your uncle."

"you......"

Dawei was about to get angry again, Qian Xiaotong quickly stopped him and said:

"Okay, okay, dear, this is my uncle's house, and my uncle did ask him to help me just now. It's your first time coming to my uncle's house. If you cause trouble, it will have a bad impact."

When Dawei heard Qian Xiaotong's words, he snorted and turned around and walked out of the room.

Qian Xiaotong said to me:

"Liu Muchen, you have to understand that it has been more than a year since we ended, and you have disappeared for more than a year, and now you come back to me. Why?"

"I'm not here to find you. Don't be pretentious. To me, you are just a familiar passerby at best. There will be some accidents during your grandpa's spiritual gift. I'm here to help deal with it."

I took out the brush, cinnabar and ink sticks from my bag to sharpen the ink.

Qian Xiaotong sneered and said:

"Liu Muchen, are you so shameless? Why do you dare to say anything? How could you tell me that something like an accident would happen when my grandpa gave a spiritual gift? I finally understand. You spent the year you disappeared to learn how to cheat. Did you kidnap me? But if you want to deceive me, don’t deceive me into coming to our house, okay? Or did you know that I was back and came to our house specifically to deceive you?"

I ignored her, and after grinding the ink, I added cinnabar powder to it.

After stirring it with a brush, I started to recite the ink curse and pen curse, and then took out a few blank talisman papers.

Qian Xiaotong looked at me and ignored her, and became more and more enthusiastic:

"Oh, you look decent. It seems like you haven't learned anything in vain this year. Who taught you these messy things? Aren't you afraid of retribution when you come out to fool people like this?"

"roll!"

I can't bear it anymore. Drawing talisman requires concentration.

If you don't have a good mentality to draw the talisman, the talisman that comes out will always lack a kind of spiritual power, and this spiritual power will directly affect the effect of the talisman.

She said I would forget it, it would not affect me at all.

But when he said that Master is an old master, I really couldn’t calm down.

When Qian Xiaotong saw me telling her to get lost, she smiled instead and said:

"Do you feel bad after being exposed by me?"

"Qian Xiaotong, don't always put your face on yourself. I know very well what kind of person you are. I was blind before I fell in love with you. Get out!"

I looked at her angrily.

"Okay, this is what you said. We don't even have a chance to be friends anymore."

After Qian Xiaotong finished speaking, he turned around and walked out.

I laughed, didn't care, turned around and started drawing the ghost-fighting charm.

In order to enhance the power of the spell, I cut my finger and squeezed a few drops of blood into the freshly ground ink.

After drawing the talisman, I started to put the hand spell on it. After the hand spell was done, I set it aside to dry naturally.

He took out a small brocade box from his backpack.

There are still a few talismans left in the brocade box that Master passed on to me.

These talismans have been blessed by Master for more than ten years.

There are twelve in total, six soul-trapping charms, three soul-fixing charms, and three ghost-killing charms.

That time when I was in the Taoist temple with my senior sister, I used five of them to clear out the resentful souls, but now there are only seven left.

These charms are very precious and I originally planned to keep them with me as souvenirs.

But tonight this evil spirit may be beyond the scope of my ability. I have to take out a soul-fixing talisman and a ghost-killing talisman just in case.

After taking out Master's talisman, I grabbed the largest peach wood nail and tried it.

This peach wood nail is very long, as long as the blade of the senior sister's small peach wood sword.

If you add a wooden handle to it, it can be used as a mahogany sword.

Thirty years of suppressing that evil spirit have long given this peach wood nail the power to make that evil spirit fearful.

This is also the biggest reason why I dare to come directly to this evil ghost. Of course, the premise is that I use it well.

I waved it randomly in the air a few times and it felt pretty good.

I pinned it around my waist, took out the magic whip and ghost-killing stick and blessed it with spells.

More than half an hour had passed during this period of busy work, and the sounds of laughter and commotion began to be heard outside.

I know that the spiritual gift delivery is about to begin.

I took the folded cloth bag out of my backpack.

All usable things were put into cloth bags.

I tidied up a little and walked out of the room like a normal person.

Everyone in the main room has already gone out.

The number of people in Shaiguping was much smaller than before.

There were only about 20 people left in total.

Uncle Xiao did a great job in persuading me.

The remaining ones who didn't leave were those who didn't believe in evil or were bold, as well as relatives and friends of the Xiao family.

This number is just right. If they gather together, ordinary evil spirits cannot get close.

I found Master Wang and asked what the evil ghost looked like.

Master Wang told me that the evil spirit was wearing a dark cardigan with white collar and cuffs, and a pair of red deep boots. His hair was long and messy, and the hair on his forehead almost covered his eyes. .

A group of people stood around a piece of grass on the other side of Shaiguping.

The delivery of spiritual gifts begins with burning wild money.

The so-called burning wild money is to burn the money on the road.

The money is for the lonely ghosts wandering around the area.

One is to give them a little favor and let them take care of their family members who are just starting out.

Another thing is to tell them not to think about the spirit house.

After burning the wild money, we will make some snacks.

The sweets and glutinous rice cakes on the Eight Immortals' table will be thrown randomly on the grass by the host.

People on the grass can grab these things to eat, but most of them are children.

It is said that the more you grab, the more you eat, and the more blessings you receive.

Uncle Xiao is the one who spreads the tribute.

He stood on a stone on the edge of the grass and sprinkled it quickly into the grass, where seven or eight children were fighting for it.

At this time, I suddenly remembered the scene of robbing these things when I was a child.

Sometimes when I squat down to pick up something on the ground, I will see one or two pairs of adult feet.

At that time, the adults told me that they were blinded.

In fact, this is not the case. This is because the people grabbing these tributes are not only children, but also wandering spirits who are around to watch the fun.

They sit with children doing the same thing, and children have lower horizons.

Sometimes children accidentally see it. This is the most reasonable explanation.

Looking at the children below who are grabbing tributes, in order to solve the doubts that they had when they were young.

I took out the small bottle of cow tears that Master Wang gave me, carefully squeezed out two drops and sprinkled them on my eyes.

Cow tears came into my eyes, and I didn't feel any lubrication.

On the contrary, it was still a little dry, so I blinked my eyes hard, and then used my hand to draw two eye-protecting charms on my eyes.

In just four or five seconds, my eyes adapted.

Not far away, Qian Xiaotong and Dawei were leaning on each other and pointing at me, not knowing what they were talking about.

I ignored them and turned to look at the group of children who were still grabbing the tributes.

It doesn't matter if you look at it, it's startling when you see it.

There were actually more wandering souls grabbing tributes on the small grassland than children, more than a dozen of them.

These wandering spirits interspersed among the children, and sometimes even directly encountered the children among them.

The children who were touched were just stunned for a moment, and then continued to grab the candies and glutinous rice cakes that were being sprinkled down.

They didn't care at all, just like I did when I was a kid.

I took a look at the wandering spirits myself.

There is nothing like the evil ghost described by Master Wang.

And these wandering souls are also reincarnation ghosts.

It doesn't have much to do with me.

They don't harm anyone, they just want to steal some tributes.

After the tributes were scattered, the wandering souls ran to a small corner with relatively dark light.

They just watched quietly from the side, and no one had any intention of getting closer.

Next, we have to wait for the time to start burning the spirit house.

But I haven't seen the evil ghost yet.

Master Wang saw my frown and said:

"Wait a minute, its purpose is to get this spiritual house. There are also many tributes in the spiritual house. After the spiritual house is burned, it will come and rob it."

I nodded and looked around.

A new face fell into my sight.

That's it! That evil spirit.

He wears a black shirt with a white collar and white cuffs, and wears a pair of dark red deep boots.

But where it stands makes me a little confused.

Because it stood beside Qian Xiaotong and Dawei.

Qian Xiaotong and Dawei, on the other hand, stood in a relatively dark place away from everyone.

They seem to dislike this ritual.

But think about it, Dawei is from the city, and his expression seems to be a little disapproving of these "feudal superstitions" in rural areas.
