Chapter 190: Chapter 190: Purification Mantra
"It's him, he's coming!!"
An Ru had just calmed down, but when she heard this exclamation, she began to panic again, her body trembling non-stop, and she subconsciously turned around to run away, but I grabbed her.
Not only her, but even Xiao Mi was afraid.
To make them so panic, the person who shouted must be Ma Liuzhi.
It is not difficult to see how much prestige the other party has accumulated over the years. Even if An Ru made the decision to confront him, she still couldn't calm down at this moment, as if fearing the other party had become her instinct.
"Calm down!"
Seeing that comfort was useless, I growled: "The arrow is on the string and has to be shot. Have you lost even a little bit of blood after being bullied by him for decades?"
Perhaps it was the first time I spoke to her so loudly. An Ru trembled and stopped struggling, but it can be seen that her fear still suppressed her resistance.
"For your own sake, no, even for me and Xiao Mi, think about it. If we don't resist today, what will be waiting for us!?"
I held her shoulders and tried to make her look into my eyes, but she dodged, as if even I had become a hideous demon and dared not look at her. I held her cheeks very roughly and forced her to look at me. Then I said word by word: "Think about your wish, get rid of this place, never be alone, these can all be realized, as long as you overturn Ma Liuzhi, I will try my best to arrange your rebirth when you get out. If there is enough time, in the next life... we may have a chance to meet again!"
An Ru's breathing gradually calmed down. After looking at me, she gritted her teeth and nodded silently.
"Okay, listen to me, and delay as much as possible in a while."
I said quickly: "I will observe in the dark, and as long as the time is right, I will take action!"
After that, I nodded at her and turned around to the back of the house.
Seeing that I was about to leave, the old ghost man didn't care about his own embarrassment. He jumped up with the dog chain hanging around his neck, stared at me and warned me fiercely that if I sold them, he would not let me go even if he became a ghost in the next life.
"You are already a ghost."
I said in a vicious voice: "People become ghosts after death, and ghosts are nothing when they die. Do you expect to suffocate me to death in the next life? Now that things have come to this, you have no choice but to believe me."
The old ghost man's expression froze and he couldn't say a word.
I quickly went around the back of the house. There was a tall pile of firewood next to the corner of the wall. I climbed up the firewood pile neatly and climbed to the roof in a few steps. I lay on the other side of the ridge, stuck my head out and silently observed the situation in the village.
Anru's house is at the end of the village. The overall terrain is high. I lay on the roof and had a panoramic view of the whole village.
As far as the eye can see, a large number of people are pouring into the village. From a high place, you can even see a thick black gas rising above their heads. The crowd gathers and the black gas connects, as if they are moving forward against the dark clouds.
"There is no good person. It is not unjust that their souls are scattered. They are all evil spirits!"
I cursed inwardly, looked up and looked further away, and my face immediately became gloomy.
Not all evil spirits came in. From where I can vaguely see the entrance of the village, where five or six evil spirits are stationed, as if they are guarding the door.
Unfortunately, because the distance is a bit far, I can only see a whole figure and can't see the specific appearance.
This makes me feel a little heavy in my heart.
Ma Liuzhi should not be among the people at the entrance of the village, right?
Think about it carefully. With the degree of love that Ma Liuzhi has for himself, it is very likely that he is unwilling to take the risk to enter the village, but instead waits and watches at the entrance of the village!
I picked up the basswood several times and put it down gently. My fists were clenched so tightly that my joints turned white...
In the end, the other party came too suddenly and arrived right after An Ru, which was a little different from what I expected. Because An Ru was very fast, I originally estimated that when An Ru arrived, they should still be on the way. We still had some time to fully confirm Ma Liuzhi's movements in the crowd and then react.
Now... it's too late!
I didn't dare to act rashly, otherwise it would be a big show, and the main spectators didn't come. That would be the biggest blunder in the world. It involved the safety of the four of us. I couldn't make a hasty decision, and finally chose to stay dormant for a while.
The dark tide of evil spirits was like a locust passing through, and soon surrounded An Ru's house.
I couldn't see An Ru's expression from my position, but I could see from her slightly trembling body that she was actually afraid.
The person I was most worried about was her. If she showed any flaws, it might be a complete loss.
However, An Ru's performance was much better than I expected. She quickly calmed down, opened her arms, and blocked the door, stopping all the evil spirits, and shouted: "It's not time yet. I promised to prepare sacrifices for you, and I will prepare them. We have already agreed that as long as we do what you say, we will not interfere with each other. What do you mean by coming here now?"
"Do you really think we are here to ask for sacrifices?"
A long-faced man suddenly walked out of the group of evil spirits, squinting his eyes and sneering: "I think you have been comfortable for too long. His Majesty is too tolerant of you. You dare to invite a stinky Taoist priest to deal with us. Now hand him over. His Majesty said that as long as you hand him over honestly, he will not hurt you!"
I have never seen Ma Liuzhi. I have been observing the hands of this long-faced man. I found that he had all five fingers on both hands, and I couldn't help but feel disappointed.
This is not Ma Liuzhi.
My eyes have moved elsewhere and continued to search among the evil spirits.
An Ru was trying her best to delay time for me, and she was getting better and better. She was naturally 100% against the long-faced man's words, and even cursed him for slandering her. I have to say that this girl is very talented. Not long ago, I told her some Taoist rules. At this time, she easily picked them up and directly mocked the other party for being stupid. Can a Taoist priest be invited just by asking? Even a fool knows that Taoist priests only care about the affairs of the living world, and do not ask the wishes of the dead. They follow the rules between yin and yang. How capable is she to invite a Taoist priest?
The long-faced man was really a little skeptical about his life after being said that, and hesitantly said: "But, the other party's breath was obviously cut off when he arrived here?"
"Does that prove that I did something?"
An Ru immediately asked back, and the man was speechless.
An old woman with a big face suddenly jumped out, pointed at An Ru and cursed her for being a disaster. The village had fallen to this point because of her, and now she had provoked the Taoist priest...
This old woman was throwing a tantrum, but the people around her looked very convinced. The long-faced man even bowed and immediately retreated behind the woman, lowering his eyebrows and calling her "Queen".
Is this the Queen?
That... Widow Li?
I was shocked and almost fell off the roof. I thought that Ma Liuzhi's taste was really not good.
However, An Ru seemed to be very unimpressed with Widow Li. When she saw her coming out, she cursed her without caring.
For a while, the ghost tide was noisy.
Finding the Taoist priest seemed to become less important all of a sudden, and it became a battle between two women...
In the chaos, I found that the ghost old man looked at me and blinked at me quickly. I understood what he meant. He told me to be patient and not to move. The situation was still under control.
If there was anyone who wanted me to take action the most, it would probably be him.
There was only one possibility for his attitude - he had confirmed that Ma Liuzhi was not among these people.
Could it be that the grandson was really waiting at the entrance of the village?
Sweat was gradually coming out on my forehead, and I thought that this time I was in a difficult situation.
At this time, a sharp voice suddenly sounded.
"What are you arguing about? Is it Qingbai, or the Taoist priest you brought in? Let everyone go in and search and we will know!"
Listening to the voice, it was Ma Liuzhi's voice!
But the strange thing was that the other party's voice had no sense of direction, just like an echo in a valley, and the sound source could not be found, and the other party's position could not be accurately confirmed.
This must be some kind of deceptive trick. The other party's level of caution is completely beyond my imagination.
As soon as the other party opened his mouth, the ghosts rioted and rushed over. An Ru and the others were very anxious. They knew that I was on the roof. If these things rushed in, they would soon find me.
In a hurry, the three of them rushed to the door together to stop these evil ghosts.
"I just don't believe I can't confirm where you are!"
I gritted my teeth, pressed my thumb with my ring finger and little finger on my right hand, and put my index finger and middle finger together, forming a Taoist sword technique, and "snapped" it on my forehead. The Taoist sword technique can take the energy of Gengjin, cut through illusions, and prevent the miasma from confusing people. Then, with lightning speed, I drew a talisman on my forehead with two fingers, and my lips moved, saying in a voice that only I could hear: "Lingbao Tianzun, comfort the body. The disciple's soul, the five internal organs are mysterious. The Azure Dragon and the White Tiger, the troops are in chaos. The Vermillion Bird and the Black Tortoise, guard my true self. Hurry up and obey the command!"
I can feel the Earth Spirit Pearl in my lower abdomen tremble slightly, and at the same time, a little cool air spreads from between the eyebrows.
This is one of the most commonly used "Eight Great Mantras" in Taoism - the Purification Mantra.
Of course, this cleansing has nothing to do with whether or not to cut. This spell can make the gods in the human body return to their positions and cleanse the body. It is generally used to attract gods and can also feel some filthy things.
Given the current situation, the best way is to open the third eye to see. Unfortunately, I have studied "Qingwei Inner Alchemy" for too short a time. I know this concept but don't understand it. That thing is too profound.
After all, these magic spells are not for ordinary people to use. Taoist disciples have to use spiritual energy to cleanse themselves. With the ability of fetal breathing, it is good to be able to open a cleansing spell. I don't practice Taoist inner alchemy, so I can only rely on the Earth Spirit Pearl. In fact, I am trying it out, but I never thought it would really work. The cool air made me clear my mind and calm my heart. Looking at those evil spirits again, there was a dark haze around them, all of which were filthy air.
"They dared to resist, it must be related to the thief Taoist priest. Don't show mercy, eliminate the three of them!"
The sharp and harsh voice sounded again.
This time, the voice no longer sounded vague, and the sense of direction was very strong. I captured the other party's position at the first time, and suddenly looked to the west. Between the two deserted houses, a man wearing a coarse cloth shirt and a gloomy face was hiding there.
He was not at the entrance of the village, nor in the crowd. Instead, he was like a bystander, coldly watching everything. It was really insidious. After all, whether it was the evil spirits at the entrance of the village or the evil spirits entering the village, the target was very obvious!
Unfortunately, he had calculated everything, but he didn't expect that he was already in my formation!
It was said that it was late, and it was fast. Almost at the same time when I confirmed his position, Ma Liuzhi suddenly raised his head and looked at me!
What a sharp intuition!
I was secretly shocked, but since I had confirmed the other party's position, I didn't hesitate any more. I quickly climbed up from the roof and jumped down holding the basswood.
Swish!
A black shadow flashed in front of me, and then a man in a coarse cloth shirt appeared in the yard, appearing and disappearing like a ghost, as if teleporting.
The next moment, the other party rushed towards me!
"Fuck you!"
I roared and stabbed the basswood into the ground...
