Chapter 8: Life and death, wealth and honor are predestined, and when they come and go is determined
The rest of the day was peaceful and quiet. Everyone gathered to chat for a few words and they parted, busy with their own affairs. Every month, there were only a few days when the ghost gate opened. It always took some time to deal with each business, right?
For example, Mr. Gou and Fatty Lu, the food dealings of the ghosts should be buried and burned, while the others sent the things purchased by the ghost to the field and burned them to the buyer - Cheng San helped the old man August to make some paper and fragrant wax, and Widow Luo, Wu Magan and others ran around. Only the old man August and Lao Miaozhu drank flower wine again.
For those who are flower wine, peanuts and wine are also the same - it can be considered comfortable and comfortable!

The reason why Supreme Treasure woke up was very simple, because he was so hungry - he lay on the window and looked out, and it was pitch black. He knew the routine in his heart, so he stopped thinking about it. He turned around and got up from the bed. When he passed by the shrine, he took a fruit offering and then moved the plate slightly...
"Yeah, I can't tell it!"
After walking to the cottage behind, I poured water in a raucous manner, and then ate the fruit and threw the core into the cesspool behind. I was about to go to Uncle Lu's restaurant to find the master August to eat some wine and food, but I felt a sudden burst of flowers in front of me, and I saw something moving on the deserted slope behind the temple!
Supreme Treasure deals with more ghosts than people on weekdays, so he is naturally extremely brave. How can he miss something strange now when he sees something strange? So he didn't feel hungry, and his master, Old Man August, was not in a hurry to find him, and trotted up the mountain.
Supreme Treasure ran to Banpo and was about to go up the mountain when he suddenly heard the whistling wind in front of him. A faint black shadow floated forward quickly, as if he was escaping. A white shadow followed behind him, and he was chasing him while laughing strangely.
He knew that the one who escaped strangely must be a ghost, and the one who chased him behind was also a ghost. He felt funny in his heart, and couldn't help but laugh out loud for a while!
Bai Ying looked here. Although he didn't see his face, his originally playful face suddenly changed to a fierce look. He curled his abdomen and raised his jaw, and opened his mouth and spit out an old tongue. But the tongue he saw was scarlet and dripping, reaching his chest, and it was terrible in this night!
"well…"
Without looking at Supreme Treasure more, he had already thrown out the iron plate in his hand!
The iron card was accompanied by a chain, and it was thrown out and turned around in the air. It flew back and hit the black shadow. Then the white shadow shook his wrist, and the iron card flew up again and circled around him twice.
The black shadow fell to the ground with a shrill scream, curled up into a pile, and the iron chain wrapped around his body was sneering at the place where the black smoke came out, like a soldering iron resting on a piece of fat. The white shadow seemed to have been used to it, and walked straight forward and stepped on his chest:
"Life and death have a long life, wealth and honor have a life, and when will it be decided? The King of Hell wants you to die in the third quarter, who dares to keep people until the fifth quarter? - He Laocai, even if you have a wealthy family, you are just an ant in my eyes. I didn't expect that you would actually hide in the corpse-raising place, and use the zombie transformation to go to the world. It's really easy to find me!"
After saying that, he raised the white stick in his right hand high and knocked on the shadow's head, allowing the ghost to wail and beg for nothing, and suddenly said, "Let's go!"
After a few sticks came down, the black shadow suddenly became smaller and thinner, and was sucked in by the stick!
Bai Ying held the iron plate in her hand and waved her hands. Somehow the iron plate in her hand was taken in and she couldn't see it anymore.
Supreme Treasure clapped his hands and jumped out of the haystack, shouting: "Wow! Awesome, uncle is so awesome, you can get rid of such a fierce guy, you are so capable!" He tilted his head and stared at Bai Ying, then jumped up: "Your tongue is so beautiful and long, much better than those hanged ghosts..."
I stretched out my little hand and was about to touch it!
This white shadow is Xie Bi'an, one of the famous underworld impermanence. People in the world call Bai Wuchang. If ordinary people see each other on weekdays, they will be afraid that they will be trembling and faint. Who knew that when they met a child today, they were not afraid, but also praised his tongue for being beautiful, which made him laugh and cry. When he saw his hand coming over, he quickly retreated backwards. He retreated violently and almost bit his tongue!
Bai Wuchang waved his hand and said, "Whose child is you? Why are you not afraid of me?"
Supreme Bao smiled and said, "I live there..." He pointed his hand at the City God Temple far away: "But I don't know whose child I am. I only have a master named Old Man August."
Bai Wuchang looked in the direction of his fingers for a few seconds, and then he realized that he had been playing and chasing hundreds of miles and had reached the range of Queer Mountain. He heard him mentioning Wu Bayue, and knew that he was a disciple of the Five Wheel Sect of Onmyoji. Then he understood:
"Oh, it turns out to be a disciple of Onmyoji, I have to wonder!"
Since he understood the matter, he was unwilling to delay, so he reached out to pat the Supreme Treasure's head: "I still have official duties in my hand, so I will..." When I touched the child's head, I suddenly realized the difference!
The place where you start is cold and chill, it is exactly the same as a ghost!
Before a person dies, the soul is nourished by three fires and bound by life ropes, which is always a warm and moist feeling, also known as the Yang Soul; after death, it leaves the skin, and because it stays in the human world to resist the power of the six paths, it quickly becomes cold, called Yin Soul.
Yin and Yang souls are different. Yin and Souls will be harmed when they enter and exit many places in the world, but Yang souls are not the case. It is equivalent to living people who can usually go to Buddhist temples, Taoist temples, temples, and gods. When they meet Mr. Zhong Kui, Mr. Guan Er and other gods, they will not be killed. But this child clearly has this skin and body, but there is a ghost inside!
Bai Wuchang moved his wrist, and the soul-catching card that had just been taken back appeared in his palm again. He raised the soul-catching card and recited a spell at the child's Niwan:
"The dust is eliminated, and the nine holes receive the spirit; all ghosts are confusing, and the four lives are grateful; those with heads surpass them, and those without heads are born; those with special swords kill, dive into the water and hanging ropes... Let's show the fate, and three lives are revealed, and you will live and die clearly!"
The words behind the soul-catching card will be displayed after the mantra: So-and-so, when was it born, how to grow up in childhood, how many years of life, how many years of sudden...
But after finishing the mantra this time, there was no such handwriting!
That...it seems to mean that this child is no longer in the Three Realms and Five Elements?
Bai Wuchang felt a stern in his heart. He was about to detain the child's soul back to the underworld for trial, but he saw that the soul-catching card suddenly became cloudy and mist. After the clouds and mist passed, three big words appeared on the card:
"King of Chujiang!"
Since he knew that it was the second palace of Yama King Chujiang, King, intervened, Bai Wuchang was not convenient for him to deal with it at this time, so he only planned to go back and ask again - he gave Supreme Treasure a terrifying smile, waved his hand, and his whole body turned into a breeze and disappeared.
The Supreme Treasure knew that he had just left at the Ghost Gate. When he saw Xiqi, he thought he was playing with the white-clothed ghost himself. He clapped his hands continuously until he waited for a long time but didn't realize that he had left, so he had to give up now.
Looking up, the moon was getting late, so Supreme Treasure returned to the City God Temple in disappointment. Seeing that the old man August and Liu Piyun were still drinking, there was a fox woman who was not commonly seen on weekdays next to her. She became interested again and hurried over to find something to eat while listening to what they said.
He heard the gloomy voice of the fox lady, "...Liangmu Kanli, the wind and clouds are not yet available! The girl's soul can't be found at all, so it's impossible to find it. So, if you want to use his daughter's soul to dream, this way is absolutely not feasible," she shrank back, and hid in the dark shadow of the oil lamp, and said, "We have to find another method!"
The old man Liu sighed and picked up the wine pot. The silk-like wine thread poured into the cup from the spout. He picked up the wine glass and put it beside his mouth. His eyes sounded like he was thinking about something. The old man next to him couldn't help but feel anxious, "Are you a little too much? In my opinion, there is no need to worry about this matter. If the man in the martial arts world doesn't come, it's fine. If he really wants to come, we just need to do it again according to the previous activities, and we may not lose to him!"
When the temple Zhu heard this, he smiled faintly and put the wine glass on the table and said, "What August said is indeed true. We may not lose to the Duan family of the Youfang. As for what kind of brother robes, I naturally don't care about it - but I saw this picture today, the appearance of the tomb above is actually a straight lid!"
As he said that, he reached out to the middle of the scene and pointed: "Look at the lotus again, count the time... Have you forgotten?"
When the words were said, the fox and August's faces suddenly changed drastically, and they said together: "Are you talking about..."
"Not bad!" Temple Zhu said in a deep voice: "Cast the coffin and the lotus flowers to conquer the ghost gate, and birds close their eyes and swallow the golden elixir. If the water moistens the Sanhe veins, it will only look at Jiazi for a year!"
After reading this poem, he paused: "Now it's just the sixth Jiazi year before the temple's Dingtian Gua. When the water flooded the rivers and bends this year, I was worried. Unexpectedly, this worry has come true. The coffin-covered picture and the shadow of the lotus. The only thing that was missing was the bird's eyes closed and the golden elixir was swallowed - can the peaceful world be passed, and we have to enter the troubled world again?"
After listening for a long time, Supreme Treasure didn't understand anything. But seeing that the three of them looked solemn and worried, they didn't know where they got the courage, they actually grabbed Lao Liu's hand and asked:
"Uncle Liu, I really don't understand what you said, and I don't know what you are worried about, but I know this sentence," he cleared his throat and said, "Life and death have a long life and fortune, and when will it be decided? The King of Hell wants you to die in the third update, who dares to keep people until the fifth update?" He said Bai Wuchang's words in an instant.
After saying that, he laughed: "The master also said, 'There are days that can be determined by the number of days, and people say that they can do it themselves.' We don't know how to arrange the number of days, but as long as we accumulate good deeds according to the number of days, there is nothing to worry about in everything!"
After saying that, the three of them were stunned!
Supreme Treasure was nervous, not knowing whether it was right or wrong, and was wondering if it should sneak away. At this time, he saw them suddenly laughing together. Old Liutou and Master August even picked up the wine glass and drank it all!
After a few glasses of wine, the old man in August had somehow developed a sense of heroism, and slapped the table and shouted:
"Well said! I didn't expect that the three of us were actually enlightened by you little thing today - yes, Tao follows nature, and God's will is respected! Why should we worry about those things? We just need to do our best and we will get married?"
