Strange Tales: The Yin-Yang Celestial Master

The talisman stolen by the thief ghost half a year ago and the talisman on the corpse of the funeral parlor seem to be from the same person.Qi Buyang and Luo Lang looked at each other. If this is the case, this matter may be much more complicated than they thought.

In the evening, Qi Buyang called the thief ghost out and asked about the origin of the triangular talisman, but nothing was gained. The thief ghost only remembered that the other party was a man, and he was still alive at that time. , As for what the stolen person looked like, he couldn't remember it at all.

"But I still have a little impression," the thief ghost repeatedly emphasized, trying to prove that he is not so useless, "If I see that person, I should be able to recognize him."

"Then you go to the street and watch. If you see that person and come back to report, is 50 years enough?" Luo Lang teased.

The thief ghost rolled his eyes at him, and when he turned to Qi Buyang, he immediately revealed his dog-legged nature, "Yangyang, I'll go back if it's okay? I still have a bomb in my hand, I don't believe it won't kill them!" Hands of playing cards.

Qi Buyang had no choice but to wave his hand to let him go back.

After searching all the books at home, he still couldn't find a single word about those spells, so Qi Buyang had no choice but to take them and go to the city to find old man Zhang.

"Hey, Bu Yang, are you taking Mr. Luo out for a walk again?" The old man twirled his beard and greeted them with a smile.

Half of Luo Lang's face turned dark, and he replied with a sinister smile, "Yes, let's see if you're dead."

Old man Zhang was not annoyed, "Thanks to Mr. Luo, the old man is in good health, but Mr. Luo, you are much older than me. You should pay more attention to your health and be careful of strokes."

Luo Lang narrowed his eyes, "Thank you for your concern. I heard that eating human flesh can prolong your life. I'm going to try it."

They exchange courtesy here, and Qi Buyang is used to it, so he went to say hello to the sleeping golden retriever first.The golden retriever was also very familiar with him, and when he heard him approaching, he moved his tail and slowly leaned his big head on his lap.Qi Buyang knelt down and hugged its head into his arms, the golden retriever suddenly smelled something, sniffed and whimpered.

Qi Buyang asked the old man for help, "Grandpa Zhang, what is it talking about?"

"It says you smell delicious."

Mr. Luo, who protected his shortcomings, immediately countered: "It's better to make soup old." While talking, he looked at the old man, and then gave a disgusted "tsk".

Here the golden retriever didn't calm down after humming, and still clumsily hugged Qi Buyang's arms, sticky saliva all over his body.Old man Zhang also noticed that this silly dog ​​seemed to be much more excited than usual, so he asked Qi Buyang: "Xiaoyang, do you have something strong on you?"

"Could it be this?" Qi Buyang took out the two blood talismans, "Grandpa Zhang, have you ever seen such a thing?"

Old man Zhang took a closer look and turned pale with shock, "Xiaoyang, where did you get this thing?!"

Qi Buyang described what had happened in the past few days in detail, old man Zhang frowned, took the two triangular talismans and studied them carefully for a while, then nodded and said: "This is a blood talisman, that's right."

"What does the spell above mean? I searched all the books at home but couldn't find it."

"It's normal if you can't find it. This is a forbidden technique. Old Freak Qi put away all the things he didn't want you to touch, and hid them in his old suitcase."

"Forbidden spells?" Qi Buyang had already guessed that these spells were not good things, but he didn't expect them to be forbidden spells. "Then what are they for?"

The old man twirled his beard, shook his head and said: "I don't know too well, since it is a forbidden technique, we are also forbidden to practice it, but I have probably read a few ancient books. If the corpse can be brought back to life, these blood talismans must be written with human blood Yes, I'm afraid the person who donated the blood is not too good..." He thought for a while, "I don't know what they want to do, but it must not be a good thing anyway."

Qi Buyang said: "I have asked the funeral home to monitor 24 hours a day. If there is any situation, I will know immediately."

"Since you discovered the blood talisman, they probably won't come again in the short term. I'm afraid they will be in a hurry and start attacking the living. Alas, it has been many years since no one dared to use the forbidden technique. The last time I saw you It was more than ten years ago..." At this point, he seemed to realize that he had made a slip of the tongue, and the old man stopped talking suddenly.

Qi Buyang asked: "Grandpa Zhang continued, what happened more than ten years ago?"

Looking at the curious eyes of the little celestial master, the old man hesitated for a long time, and finally sighed: "Forget it, there is nothing else to say at this point. But, you can't tell your grandfather that I told you about it. "

"Yeah." Qi Buyang nodded obediently, "I will definitely not let grandpa know."

"This matter has to start with Longhu. Did Old Freak Qi tell you that it was Longhu that first existed before this city?"

Qi Buyang thought for a while, "Grandpa didn't say anything, but Uncle Qi mentioned it to me."

The old man went on to say: "Our city was built around Longhu from the very beginning, so the feng shui in the city comes from Longhu. If Longhu is fixed, the whole city will be in good weather, and if Longhu is bad, there will be many disasters in the city. The predecessors knew this well. It is also very particular. The small islands in the lake seem to be disorganized and connected by stone bridges, but they are actually winding and orderly. If you climb to the tallest building and overlook Longhu Lake, you will find that the islands in the lake are shaped like a line. Dragon. Long Lake has guarded the city for hundreds of thousands of years, and it has always been safe and sound, but, more than ten years ago, shortly after you were born, a stone sculpture was suddenly built in the middle of the intersection beside Long Lake..."

The image of that intersection appeared in Qi Buyang's mind. It belongs to the old city, so the roads are relatively narrow. The intersection is close to Longhu, and it is also in the traffic arteries. It is especially crowded. He has passed there countless times, and every time he There is a long traffic jam.It is unreasonable to build a sculpture in the middle of such an intersection, but looking at old man Zhang, it seems that it is not that simple.

"Is there something wrong with that sculpture?" he asked.

"No, it's too wrong. From the position to the shape, nothing is right." The old man took a pencil and drew on the back of the waste talisman paper on the table, "Look, this is Longhu, and the stone carvings were built here. It is the position where the head of the dragon in the lake is facing, which actually changes the pattern of the dragon lake."

"Overlooking from above, the stone carving on the round base is like a dragon ball in the dragon's mouth. The dragon breathes out, feels the aura of heaven and earth, and gathers the essence of the sun and the moon. In this way, that position becomes a geomantic hole, where life and death are all there. Gathering there, this is completely artificially changing the direction of feng shui, depending on how the person uses it, good luck is good, and bad luck is bad. Originally, no one cared about this, but when the stone sculpture is completed, let alone us, even Ordinary people also feel that something is wrong, because although the shape of the sculpture looks like a thick book spread out, if you look closely, you will find that the pages on both sides are more like two coffins close together."

"Ah!" Qi Buyang was fascinated, and couldn't help but let out an exclamation at this moment.Even Luo Lang heard the interest. He has wandered around the world for hundreds of years, but he has only come back to this city twice in the past few decades. , have nothing to do with Longhu, so he has never heard of these things.

The old man continued: "Whether it is intentional or unintentional, that stone carving is an ominous thing. After I told Old Monster Qi, he found out after inquiring that it was a suggestion from a Feng Shui master. It is said that it can not only protect the people in the city , to preserve the prosperity and prosperity of the whole city, and it can also help the mayor at that time to have a prosperous career and a magnanimous career. Of course we know this is nonsense, and the Feng Shui master must have some other purpose. Fortunately, the words of the Qi family in this city are still very important. The mayor and your grandfather are also old acquaintances. Under the persuasion of Mr. Qi and considering public opinion, they finally decided to remove the sculpture.

In order not to attract attention, the demolition was carried out at night. After dismantling, it was discovered that there was a hole hidden under the stone sculpture. There was a faint light in the hole. I called a worker to go down to look at it. I was so scared that I climbed up and said that there was nothing underneath. It was a corpse, with its belly open and candles lit with corpse oil.Fortunately, it was the middle of the night, and no one else saw it. The workers did not dare to start work. The person in charge called Old Monster Qi out overnight. "

"It's really all corpses?" Qi Buyang asked hurriedly.

"It's not that exaggerated. There are only three corpses, but they were all disemboweled. A row of white candles were lit along the spine in the abdominal cavity. It's really scary."

"Is this also a forbidden technique?"

The old man nodded, "I have only read the description of this in books. In ancient books, it is called "lighting sky lanterns and gathering dead energy". They are all things that violate benevolence, righteousness and morality, yin and yang and the five elements, and are against the sky. Although the power is powerful, the perpetrators will also be backlashed by it, which will damage the life of yang and waste the virtue of yin."

"and after?"

"Later, it was verified that the three corpses were unclaimed dead in the funeral parlor. They were not killed by the celestial master, but he insulted the dead. He committed a mistake against the heavens, so he received the punishment he deserved. .”

"Why did he do that?" Qi Buyang couldn't figure it out, since it was something that hurt both others and himself, why would anyone want to touch it.

"He wants to open the passage between the underworld and the yang world...for one person..." A complex light flashed in the old man's eyes, and Qi Buyang couldn't quite understand his expression.I wanted to ask again, but the old man didn't want to talk anymore. He looked down at the blood talisman in his hand, and seemed to think of something, and said to Qi Buyang: "Buyang, this matter is not trivial, so don't worry about it for now. It seems that I have to go to your house Let’s go to the ancestral house and have a good discussion with Old Monster Qi.”

After speaking, he turned around and went to the back to pack a small bundle, and quickly closed the door of the small shop.

"Let's go." After everything was tidied up, the old man said to Qi and Luo while holding the silly golden retriever.

Luo Lang raised his eyebrows, "Why?"

"Go back with you guys, I don't have a car, let Xiao Liu take me there."

Xiao Liu is the driver of the Qi family.Luo Lang snorted and said, "No wonder you humans always say that the longer you live, the thicker your skin will be." Qi Buyang couldn't help muttering in his heart: You are still the same...

The old man stroked his beard kindly and said, "Let's be honest, I'm afraid I won't live a fraction of Mr. Luo's age."

"..."

So the three grandparents and grandchildren embarked on the outing (?) journey happily, only the silly golden retriever was still out of condition, and kept walking with an inexplicable excitement curve along the way, which made old man Zhang very tired.

After finally getting to the Qi's house, the old man didn't regard himself as an outsider at all, and got into the Qi's car after a short walk, and ordered Xiao Liu to take him to the ancestral house.Qi Buyang stood at the door and said goodbye to him, and when the car drove out, he remembered that the golden retriever was still squatting beside him, "Grandpa Zhang! Your dog!"

The old man's trembling voice came from the wind: "I leave it to you~~~"

"..." Qi Buyang turned his head and looked at Jin Mao, Jin Mao looked at him innocently with a pair of black and watery eyes, suddenly sneezed, and then he was startled, stood up and looked at this side and then at that Side, I don't understand what that sound was just now.

"Stupid dog." Master Luo, who was on the sidelines, commented.

Qi Buyang was very happy. He had wanted to raise small animals for a long time, but his grandfather and uncle Qi disagreed, and the shady house of the Qi family was not suitable for the physical and mental development of small animals. Now one finally came, although The dog was only staying temporarily, and he was a little silly, so he led it into the house with satisfaction, and asked housekeeper Qi to prepare a comfortable nest and food for it.

Housekeeper Qi didn't even object, perhaps because he thought about Qi Buyang's fate, and couldn't bear to spoil his young master's good mood any more. Apart from the daily task - glaring at Luo Lang, he actually showed rare maternal love (?) .
