"Okay..." Although he didn't know what Gu Zheng wanted to do, Lao Zhang readily agreed to Gu Zheng's request. The kettle on Lao Zhang was a treasure left behind by his father who was a soldier. It was a military kettle. It looks like the paint has peeled off, but it is of great commemorative value.
"First pour out the water for me, and then wipe the inside clean." Gu Zheng pulled out the ancient knife from his waist without raising his head, and then carefully scraped up the layers of black ashes on the ground. Fortunately, this mountain It didn't rain last night, otherwise the remaining ashes would be gone.
After Lao Zhang made the kettle as instructed, when he saw Gu Zheng putting the ashes in it, his face suddenly turned dark, and he thought to himself: "I can't have this kettle anymore..."
Gu Zheng didn't notice Lao Zhang's sad face. After collecting the ashes, Gu Zheng didn't even let go of the surrounding soil. He scraped up a thin layer and put it all into the kettle.
"Xiao Gu, what's the use of this..." Lao Zhang rubbed his hands repeatedly and asked with a troubled expression. Seeing Gu Zheng put a lot of messy things into his kettle, Lao Zhang finally endured I kept asking.
"This is a life-saving thing." Gu Zheng replied succinctly. He looked up at the sky and saw that the death energy hovering above his head was still strong. He couldn't help but shook his head and said: "Let's go back. Master Zhou should ascend to the altar to practice. We I have to go back and take a look."
Gu Zheng didn't have much hope in Master Zhou's magic. He was just worried that this guy would mess up and annoy the Earth Immortal. Then the situation would be very bad. The people in Liujiazhai would not be the ones to suffer.
Lao Zhang nodded repeatedly and quickly led Gu Zheng back.
Sure enough, the two of them wandered around for almost an hour, and the altar over there had been set up. Several Eight Immortal tables were set up in the shape of "pin", and a huge yellow cloth was placed on it, with a huge Tai Chi printed on it. The Bagua Diagram looks quite impressive, but the yellow cloth has become a little biased and is still dirty in some places. It has obviously been used by Master Zhou many times.
There is also a tablet of Sanqing on the altar. There are incense burners and candles in front of the tablet. There are also some fruit offerings and some yellow paper charms in front of the tablet. The magic ruler peach wood sword is also a must-have weapon for killing demons. Young master. At this time, Master Zhou had taken off his sunglasses and put on a large yellow mage robe. He had a sanctimonious look on his face, except for his two round eyes, which were not much bigger than mouse eyes. They looked a little bit... funny.
Master Zhou was kneeling upright in front of the Dharma altar, talking about Nian Nian Nian. Behind him, a large number of people knelt down, all of whom were brought by Liu Jiazhai and some of the coolies he brought. And the young man who came with him also Wearing the robe of a Taoist boy, he knelt behind Master Zhou. There were many jars and jars placed around him. This time Gu Zheng saw the use of those jars. These jars were arranged in order like the Big Dipper. It is estimated that Master Zhou will jump on these pots and jars later and dance for a while, showing off his dancing posture when "ghosts are possessed".
When Lao Zhang saw everyone kneeling on the ground, he naturally did not dare to be vague. He pulled Gu Zheng and quietly came to the back of the crowd and knelt down. Seeing that everyone was like this, Gu Zheng was too embarrassed to stand alone, so He patted the ground paved with bluestones and sat down, watching Master Zhou's performance intently while waiting for the Earth Immortal's revenge.
The Earth Immortal's true soul was well hidden. Gu Zheng had walked around the entire village before, but was unable to find any traces of it. For now, we can only wait and see what happens.
Master Zhou didn’t know how long he had been muttering on the altar. Gu Zheng watched for ten minutes and didn’t see him stand up from the altar. He was quite impatient. Only magic sticks can use this method. Real demon hunters. It has long been no longer this way. It is a good and serious way to pick up guys and search for the scent of monsters and monsters all over the mountains and plains. Times have changed, and the monster hunting skills of monster hunters are also changing. Only these magic sticks who can't figure out the way, The methods that have been used for thousands of years are still being used, and there is no innovation at all. This is really worthy of contempt.
Just when Gu Zheng was about to stand up and throw a stone to stun this bastard's magic stick, Master Zhou finally stood up. The young man who looked like a Taoist boy behind him followed and asked everyone to stand up to watch the master cast a spell.
This spell casting is Master Zhou's most proud move. It would be a pity if everyone was kneeling down and unable to appreciate his exquisite spells.
I saw Master Zhou slam his hand on the table, and with a "pop" sound, the peach wood sword placed on the table rose into the air. Master Zhou stretched out his hand and took the peach wood sword in his hand. He slapped his left hand again, and a The stacked talisman paper rose into the air. Master Zhou shook the peach wood sword in his hand, shaking out a few plum blossoms, and then stabbed it with the peach wood sword, piercing the talisman paper.
Immediately after Master Zhou turned his wrist, the peach wood sword passed the red candle, and the talisman paper nailed to the wooden sword immediately burned. Taking advantage of the moment when the talisman paper was burning, Master Zhou jumped up and rolled, his whole body He jumped up on the jar and started dancing. He also recited the incantation loudly: "Hey! Taishang Laojun is as anxious as the law..."
The villagers in the audience were stunned by the hand exposed by Master Zhou. Just a few days ago, they invited Taoist Li Zhen to come and perform the ritual. Taoist Li Zhen did not have this ability. He only vomited blood from his mouth when he burned the talismans. , retreated hastily.
Only Gu Zheng knows this. Taoist Li Zhen still has some skills, and he really used some magic, which caused Liu Jiazhai's death energy to backfire, causing serious injuries. But this week, Master Zhou is a pure liar. Although this move is extremely fancy, it has no magic power at all.
Gu Zheng was angry when he saw it, but the villagers below couldn't tell the difference, and thought that Master Zhou's level was really high." After dancing around on the jars for a while, Master Zhou turned over again and lay on the ground. He kept beating the altar, shaking his head, and even the peace hat on his head fell off.
Everyone was in an uproar, thinking that Master Zhou was also possessed by evil spirits this week. However, the Taoist boy who had been standing nearby to watch the dance knew the master's skills. He gestured around with both hands and explained that the master was asking the master to possess him and kill demons. Everyone felt relieved after hearing this.
But Gu Zheng discovered that the surrounding air seemed to have become colder. He immediately felt that something was not good.
"Boom..." Suddenly there was a sound, and the altar suddenly stepped down. It seemed that there was an invisible force, and it was crashing down from the sky above the altar!
