If Su Yi had never left his own world, he would definitely be a staunch materialist who only talked about science in everything.
Therefore, Su Yi can completely relate to Brother Friend's feelings about the collapse of his outlook on life at this moment.
"Actually, nothing comes out of nowhere." Su Yi explained, "Martial arts are real, and internal strength is real, but only very few people can practice it, and there is no such thing as martial arts that can truly cultivate internal strength. From my perspective,
Since I have been practicing martial arts, I have never met anyone with internal strength except me. This shows that the road ahead is difficult."
Brother Friend's face was gloomy and uncertain, and his mood was extremely unsettled.
"In that case, the acupoint tapping..."
"real."
"Flying over the eaves and walking over the wall..."
"It's true too."
"Hitting cattle from a distance..."
"Although I have never learned this kind of Kung Fu, it should be true." Su Yi said.
Brother You smiled bitterly and accepted this fact.
"After living for most of my life, I thought I had seen the world clearly. Today I realized that I am still a frog in the well."
"Brother Friend, don't say that." Su Yi said seriously, "It's like I claim to be a master of martial arts, but I know nothing about gods and ghosts. There are three thousand avenues, but my life is only a few dozen.
Qiu, ordinary people like us, being able to study one of these for decades is already a blessing. How dare we ask for more? Even God cannot be omniscient and omnipotent."
Brother Friend nodded: "What you said makes sense. I thought you were a vulgar person before, so I was disrespectful."
Brother You suddenly stood up, clasped his fists with his hands, raised them to the level of his eyebrows, bent down deeply, bowed his head solemnly to Su Yi, and said: "Fellow Daoist Qian, Friend Maoshan Chen, I'm here to greet you!"
Friends of the Tao are friends who seek the Tao.
Although they are not the same people, they share the same ambition to pursue the great road.
Chen You, a master from Maoshan who lived in seclusion, obviously regarded Su Yi as his equal, so he called him Taoist friend.
Su Yi stood up and also solemnly saluted with clasped fists: "Martial man Qian Xiaohao, salute to Taoist brother!"
After the ceremony, the two suddenly looked at each other and smiled, feeling that their relationship with each other suddenly became much closer.
"It's rare, it's rare!" Chen You was very happy, "Fellow Taoist, do as the Romans do in the country. Let's treat each other as brothers on weekdays, so as not to be weird and shocking. How about it?"
"Of course it's no problem." Su Yi said, "I still call you Brother You, just call me Ah Hao."
"Okay, let's call it Ah Hao!" Chen You laughed and clapped his hands, "Ah Hao, if you believe me, just eat this bowl of glutinous rice."
Su Yi pondered slightly, picked up the bowl and started to put rice into his mouth without saying a word.
In fact, as long as many things pass the test in your own mind, you can look back -
It should be disgusting, but it's quite disgusting.
Su Yi endured the nausea and ate the whole bowl of glutinous rice.
Chen You nodded happily and said: "The reason why I took a mouthful of glutinous rice wine and sprayed it on this bowl of rice was not to disgust you. There is a point in this."
"I've seen your movie, and the ghost-hunting and fighting skills in it are impressive. You should have consulted an expert. Then you should also know that glutinous rice can cure yin and evil poisons, and wine can stimulate yang energy. Plus, I
A Taoist takes a mouthful of pure yang energy, and the three are superimposed together. If you eat this bowl of rice, you will be protected from all evil spirits!"
Chen You said with a smile: "2442 is, after all, a haunted house where there are evil spirits and ghosts. Although your energy and blood are strong, you are not guaranteed to suffer from three disasters and five illnesses. If your Yang and Fire are weak, those things will have the opportunity to take advantage of you. But
Now that you have eaten the bowl of rice just now, it is equivalent to eating my evil amulet. No matter how sick you are, the evil spirits will be helpless."
"So that's it..." Su Yi suddenly realized, "Brother You, so there really is a ghost in 2442?"
"Where are there no ghosts in this world?" Chen You smiled calmly, "It's just that people have their own ways, and ghosts have their own ways. Generally speaking, people and ghosts have different paths and do not interfere with each other. Even if there is a ghost sitting on your lap now, you can't
It’s hard to feel it. So don’t make a fuss if you think there is a ghost in the house, it’s normal.”
Su Yi frowned and said, "Under what circumstances would I feel the presence of a ghost? For example, I felt a ghost lying on my back."
"It depends on the situation. For example, if you are sick or weak, the ghost can get close to you." Chen You said, "Also, this ghost is very powerful and can ignore the yang energy in you. But ordinary ghosts will not
Do this, because unless you are looking for a substitute, even killing you will not do any good to the ghost, but will cause a lot of trouble."
"So, generally, if you think there is a ghost lying on your back, it is an illusion. It is probably just because you are tired."
Su Yi frowned even more: "Brother You, as a martial arts practitioner, I have a very keen sense of the body. I believe it was not an illusion before. I really felt something lying on my back.
"
Chen You was startled and looked confused: "That shouldn't be the case, they..."
He paused mid-sentence and said, "Please tell me in detail."
"Just before I was about to go out, I felt something pressing on my back. But when I walked out of the room, this feeling disappeared immediately," Su Yi said.
Chen You's face became serious.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "You said before that you first heard a strange noise in your bathroom?"
"Yes." Su Yi nodded.
"Take off your shirt and let me see." Chen You became serious. He stood up and walked behind Su Yi.
Su Yi did as he was told and took off his shirt, exposing his shoulders and back.
Chen You's hands passed across Su Yi's shoulders and the back of his neck. He was silent for a while and then said: "Okay, you can put it on."
Su Yi put on his clothes and asked, "Brother You, is there any problem?"
Chen You hesitated to speak, and finally shook his head and said: "It's okay, you come back with me now, I will draw two talismans for you, you put one on the bedside and one on the bathroom."
After a pause, Chen You said again: "Forget it, the evil-suppressing charm outside your door is also old. It's time to return it. I'll draw it for you as well."
"Brother Friend, will it be too hard on you?" Su Yi asked.
"It's okay." Chen You shook his head and patted Su Yi on the shoulder, "If you have time, let me see your acupoints and Qinggong as a reward."
Su Yi couldn't help but laugh: "Brother You is interested in this?"
"Hey, I am flying over the wall and enjoying my grudges. Why don't I, Ayou, want to become a great hero?" Chen You sighed, "That means I am over fifty years old. If I were ten years younger, I would definitely worship you as my teacher.
Learn martial arts from you!"
"You don't need to be a disciple if you want to learn." Su Yi said with a smile, "I'll teach you another day. There's nothing special about our profession, it's just that I've been too lazy to accept disciples."
Chen You's eyes lit up, he pointed at Su Yi and said, "Well, you said it, don't even think about denying it!"
"No denying it," Su Yi said.
"Well, let's go, I'll take you to my house!" Chen You stood up and was about to pull Su Yi away in high spirits.
"Brother Friend, I have to buy something back." Su Yi said, "I came here without bringing anything, bedding, daily necessities, nothing. The house is empty, and I also want to buy something."
"It seems you really plan to live here forever." Chen You said in surprise, "Have you really seen through the world of mortals?"
Su Yi smiled and said nothing.
Chen Youdao: "You bought so many things, so ask Ku Liwei to run errands for you. I'll call him down later and ask him to help you. The price he charges is very fair. Give him your room key. I'll leave these things to him."
He does it. After you finish shopping, come directly to my house. I live in 2411."
"Okay." Su Yi agreed.
Chen You hesitated slightly, looked at Su Yi and said seriously: "Don't go to the funeral parlor at the west end of the alley. It's best not to get close. The owner of the funeral parlor is called Ajiu. This person... you'd better not have too much contact with him. This is considered
A word of advice.”
Su Yi asked thoughtfully: "Is what I encountered related to him?"
"Quite clever!" Chen You was surprised, "I didn't say anything and you guessed it?"
"Brother You, you don't look like someone who talks behind people's backs. You warned me all of a sudden, so you must not have let it go unintentionally." Su Yi said, "In addition, you just asked me so carefully and didn't say anything in the end.
If you keep your secrets secret, if you keep in touch with each other, wouldn't the answer be ready to come out?"
Chen You nodded appreciatively: "You think so fast, there is no reason for you to be so miserable. Yes, although there is no evidence, I guess it is him. There are traces of a kid crawling on your back. It looks like it is just a white shirt.
A ghost can't even get close to you, but it dares to lie on your back, and it's not afraid of being blown away by your yang energy!"
Su Yi felt a little cold on the back of his head. There really was a ghost lying on him!
The thought of a kid riding on his neck made him feel uncomfortable all over.
"The only possibility is that this kid was raised by humans and was under a spell, so he is not afraid of Yang Qi for the time being." Chen You paused for a moment, glanced at Su Yi and said, "I shouldn't have said this, but
You and I have become old friends at first sight. Apart from me, the only person in this building who knows some magic is Ah Jiu from the funeral parlor. It’s just that this person and I are different and have always gone our separate ways. Apart from him, there is no one who has the ability to raise a kid.
I can't think of anyone else."
Su Yi frowned and said, "I don't know this Ah Jiu. Is he doing this intentionally or unintentionally?"
"If it were elsewhere, it might be unintentional, but 2442..." Chen You sneered, "He must have meant it! But why he did it, I don't know."
Seeing Su Yi frowning and thinking hard, Chen You comforted him: "Don't think too much. Generally speaking, other ghosts don't dare to enter 2442, and there is an evil-suppressing talisman at the door that I posted there three years ago.
, ordinary ghosts can't get in. The reason why this little ghost was able to get in is because it climbed up along the bathroom pipe, so you heard the abnormal noise in the bathroom before."
"But after I draw the talisman for you and you put it on, this situation won't happen again. I advise you not to go to Ah Jiu. Firstly, there is no evidence. Secondly, this person is a bit evil.
Sex, if you can avoid it, it’s better not to provoke it.”
Su Yi nodded and said: "Okay, Brother You, I listen to you."
Chen You nodded happily.
The two of them soon separated. Chen You went home to draw talismans first, while Su Yi went shopping for his own things.
After Chen You left, Su Yi took a deep breath and reviewed the conversation with Chen You just now.
He was not in a hurry to reveal his intention to pursue Maoshan Shu, nor did he directly become a disciple.
He felt that the way he and Chen You got along now would actually allow him to get what he wanted faster, and it would be more beneficial to him.
Haste makes waste, he knew this very well.
As for Ah Jiu from the funeral home...
Although Chen You said it was just speculation without evidence, Su Yi was basically certain that the one who let the kid harass him must be this Ah Jiu!
Chen You couldn't guess Ah Jiu's intention, but Su Yi knew the original plot and had a pretty good guess about Ah Jiu's thoughts.
If Su Yi's prediction is correct, this Ah Jiu is deliberately fishing to lure Su Yi to ask for help.
Ah Jiu has been pursuing the twin female ghosts from 2442, but unfortunately he is alone and unable to subdue these two powerful ghosts.
Now that Su Yi has moved into 2442, he must have been thinking of taking advantage of Su Yi, so he let the kid deliberately scare Su Yi and make Su Yi think that he had hit an evil spirit.
According to normal thinking and logic, if Su Yi is afraid, he will find someone to exorcise the evil spirits.
The only store in this building that is related to evil spirits is the funeral parlor opened by Ah Jiu. Therefore, Su Yi will most likely go to the funeral parlor for help.
Even if Su Yi doesn't go, Ah Jiu will definitely create opportunities to proactively find Su Yi and establish contact with Su Yi.
Unfortunately, what he didn't expect was that Su Yi would contact Chen You directly, so that nothing would happen to him.
Thinking of this, Su Yi suddenly thought that in the original plot, Qian Xiaohao also ate Chen You's bowl of glutinous rice, and then he lived in peace and contentment in 2442, and nothing happened again.
Until one day Ah Jiu suddenly appeared, splashed Qian Xiaohao's head with black dog blood, and strangled Qian Xiaohao's neck with a rope, thus attracting the two twin ghosts of 2442 and forcing Chen You to cooperate with him.
, worked together to subdue these two ghosts.
After eating Chen You's glutinous rice, Qian Xiaohao never saw a ghost or was possessed by a ghost again.
But Qian Xiaohao was immediately possessed by a ghost after Ah Jiu poured a pot of black dog blood on him...
Could it be that the black dog's blood spilled the magic power on Chen You's bowl of glutinous rice?
Also, the two twin female ghosts took possession of Qian Xiaohao twice in the original plot, once when Qian Xiaohao hanged himself, and once when Ah Jiu poured black dog blood on him and strangled Qian Xiaohao's neck with a rope.
.
Why do these twin female ghosts want to have sex with Qian Xiaohao?
According to Chen You, there is no need for ghosts to harm people unless they are looking for a substitute...
One of the twin female ghosts was hanged from the ceiling fan of 2442. Could it be that the reason why she took Qian Xiaohao's body was to find a substitute?
In this way, we can explain why Ah Jiu used a rope to strangle Qian Xiaohao's neck after breaking Chen You's spell in Tongyuan's plot.
Because only when Qian Xiaohao is strangled to death by a rope can one of the twin female ghosts regard Qian Xiaohao as her substitute.
