Uncle Feng chanted the sutra seven times, and then the sixty-six dead souls were transformed one by one and disappeared into the golden light and Bagua array.
They did not go directly to the underworld, but were transported to the entrance of the gate of hell, waiting for the moment when the gate of hell opens.
During this period, Uncle Li and Alian came back, and they brought back a handful of soil.
They had no dangers along the way. It is said that the anti-ghost charms on their bodies became hot when they were holding soil and walking back. However, they immediately stood there and closed their eyes according to Su Yi's instructions, and they returned to normal after a while.
.
"There was something really wrong with Aunt Mei's tomb. It turned out that some kind of transmitting station was to be built on the original mass grave, and all the graves there were bulldozed. Alian asked the people who were doing the construction there, and they said that all the bones in the graves were...
They were all relocated properly. But they said they didn’t know where to move and asked us to go to the city hall to find out... Alas, they will be punished for disturbing the rest of our ancestors!"
Uncle Li talked nonchalantly, quite indignantly.
"People nowadays don't know how to be reverent, and sooner or later they will suffer a big loss." Su Yi said.
Seeing Uncle Li looking a little tired, he said: "Uncle, next, there is a very critical step that you must complete. Only in this way can Chu Renmei's resentment be resolved, so I have to work hard for you to wait."
"I'm not in the way, you don't have to worry about me." Uncle Li waved his hand and said, "I probably haven't walked on the mountain road for a long time, so I'm a little tired. I'll just rest for a while."
After a pause, Uncle Li pointed at Uncle Feng who was walking around in the formation strangely and asked, "What is this Taoist priest doing?"
In the eyes of Su Yi and Xiao Ming, this formation is mysterious and magnificent, the ghosts in the formation are terrifying and strange, and the scene is very visually impactful.
But in the eyes of ordinary people, Uncle Feng just walked around mumbling words, and sometimes talked and fought with the air, which seemed particularly absurd and funny.
This is also the reason why many righteous people are regarded as liars. Since ghosts and gods cannot be seen with the naked eye, they naturally do not want to believe it. But in fact, this is not a bad thing.
People often say "ignorance is bliss". The less you know, the fewer worries you will have.
Su Yi casually gave Uncle Li a few perfunctory words, and then asked Alian to support Uncle Li to rest.
When the last undead disappeared in the formation, Uncle Feng once again worshiped the ancestors of heaven and earth, burned incense and paid homage to all directions. Then he ordered Xiao Ming to withdraw from the formation with him and put away the peach wood sword and jade pendant.
As for the two talisman papers, they had long been consumed.
"Finally, we're done." Uncle Feng said with a face full of joy, "No matter what bad things these ghosts did during their lifetime, and after they have gone through such painful and long torture after death, they should at least be given a chance to be reincarnated as human beings."
By this time the sky was already dark.
Su Yi didn't have time to exchange greetings with Uncle Feng. After saying a few polite words of thanks, he said with a straight face: "Uncle Feng, Uncle Li and Alian just went to the back mountain to see it, and there was indeed a problem with Chu Renmei's cemetery. There is construction and renovation there.
All the graves were bulldozed and dug out. Alian and the others asked the construction workers, and they said they would properly place the bones, but I'm sure they wouldn't."
"Of course not!" Uncle Feng said angrily, "Properly placed? There are no tombstones in the mass graves. They can't confirm the identities of the corpses. How can they be properly placed? It's better to say it than to sing it. It's really a crime!"
"There is so much resentment in the Bride's Pond. There is a river below the construction site, and it is also upstream of the Bride's Pond." Su Yi looked at Uncle Feng, "I suspect that Chu Renmei's bones were thrown into the water by them, that's why there is such a thing in the water.
Great resentment.”
Uncle Feng nodded: "I also suspect that is the case, otherwise there would be no explanation for the resentment in the water."
"However, from the back mountain to the Bride's Pond, which winds for several kilometers, and then to the front mountain, we are not sure where Chu Renmei's body was washed away by the water." Su Yi said, "So I asked Uncle Li and the others to bring it from the place where Chu Renmei's body was buried.
A handful of soil, I remember our Maoshan sect has a magic called the Fuji tracking method, I wonder if you know it, Brother Feng?"
Uncle Feng nodded: "Of course, why haven't you learned it?"
Su Yi shook his head: "I only saw it recorded in books, but I have never seen what this magic is."
"Then your lineage of inheritance is seriously broken." Uncle Feng frowned, "This is just a small method of following the traces. I will teach you once and you will know it."
"Brother Laofeng is here." That's what Su Yi meant.
Fuqi, Fu, refers to supporting the shelf; Fuqi means divination to ask questions.
The so-called fuqi is actually a method of divining good or bad luck and the future by writing on a sand table and chanting incantations to invite gods. In the old days, southern folk often welcomed the god Zigu on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and used fuqi to predict farming, mulberry weaving, and achievements in the coming year.
Things.
Why has this tradition gradually disappeared, and even many young people don’t know it?
One is the reason for defeating the cow ghosts and snake gods, and the other is because this tradition is a bit like "opening a blind box". Because of the divination, you don't know what the result will be. Things in the world are mixed, good or bad, and it is easy to predict ominous results.
For the Chinese New Year, everyone can just listen to the auspicious words. Having to do this on the last day is not enough for the family to worry about, so over time people are reluctant to ask, and keep out of sight.
The fuqi tracking method is actually to trace the whereabouts of a person, ghost or thing using the fuqi method. Uncle Feng said that this is a small method, but it is actually inappropriate. This is a very practical method, which can be used to catch ghosts and criminals.
You can find a sock you lost somewhere at home.
"Xiao Ming, come here!" Uncle Feng waved.
"What's the matter, Uncle Feng?" Xiao Ming hurried over.
"I want to ask you to help catch ghosts, are you willing?" Uncle Feng said with a smile.
"Of course Uncle Feng, what do you want me to do?" Xiao Ming was very positive.
"We'll find out later." Uncle Feng gave it a try. He arrived in front of the fragrant eucalyptus, placed a pen and paper and yellow talisman paper, murmured something in his mouth, quickly drew a talisman, and then asked Su Yi: "This talisman
Are you okay?"
"The incense talisman?" Su Yi recognized it at a glance, "This is when I wish to offer incense to the Taoist ancestors in some sinister places or special places. I am afraid that they will not receive the incense, so I draw the talisman to enhance the effect."
"Yes, but it also has another effect, which is tracking." Uncle Feng introduced, "The difference is that when you draw the talisman, you have the person, ghost or thing you are looking for in your mind."
While explaining, Uncle Feng quickly put away everything on the eucalyptus, leaving only a cup and four sticks of incense.
He spread the soil spread that Uncle Li brought back on the eucalyptus, looked at Xiao Ming, and adjusted the position and height of the eucalyptus.
Then he took out a red rope from his suitcase, signaled Xiao Ming to come over, tied his index finger with the red rope, and said to Su Yi: "The red rope is tied together. It not only represents marriage, but also represents cause and effect. This
It goes without saying that you understand, but do you know why it’s the index finger of the left hand?”
"The soil on the tomb is Ji soil, which belongs to Yin. The index finger of the left hand belongs to Jia wood, which belongs to Yang. As the saying goes, only when the soil is strong can the wood be dredged, and then the red thread can be used to connect cause and effect. This should be the reason." Su Yi said.
"It's really not a problem for you," Uncle Feng praised.
"Fuji means to invite gods. In fact, our Maoshan sect does not have such a thing as inviting gods, and we regard inviting gods as evil heretics." Uncle Feng tied the red rope, lit the talisman and threw it into the empty bowl, while continuing to follow
Su Yi explained, "So although this method is called Fuqi, it is actually a fake Fuqi. It does not mean that you really invite the ghost to get on your body and then go find it. It is the principle you just mentioned. If the earth is prosperous, the wood will follow the trace!"
"
"Of course, this alone is not enough. We also need to use the incense talisman as a matchmaker to get in touch with the ghost..."
Having said this, Uncle Feng lit the incense charm, threw it into the empty cup, and then squeezed it between Xiao Ming's index fingers. The latter couldn't help but let out an "ah" in pain.
Uncle Feng paused and scolded: "Young people can't bear this little pain, how can they become big things in the future?"
"The ten fingers are connected to the heart, Uncle Feng!" Xiao Ming defended softly while taking in the cold air.
Uncle Feng let out a "hum", squeezed the blood between his index fingers, and squeezed it into the cup with burning talisman paper. The fire instantly became stronger, and Xiao Ming screamed from the heat.
With quick eyes and quick hands, Uncle Feng quickly placed the cup with the burning talisman on Xiao Ming's mouth.
Xiao Ming took a breath in horror, and the flame was immediately extinguished and turned into a wisp of smoke, which was sucked into Xiao Ming's stomach.
He immediately rolled his eyes and slumped down weakly.
Uncle Feng supported him, dipped an unlit incense stick in the remaining half bucket of water that Su Yi had brought from the river, then stuffed the dipped end into Xiao Ming's mouth, and helped Xiao Ming kneel down.
In front of the fragrant eucalyptus, he placed his fingers tied with red strings on the fragrant eucalyptus.
Xiao Ming unconsciously held the incense stick in his mouth and knelt in front of the eucalyptus. The other end of the incense stick was resting on the soil of the grave.
Uncle Li on the other side stared at this scene with wide eyes, not daring to express his anger. How could he look a little tired?
"This breath represents the ghost, but it is fake, so it is not called Yin Qi, it is called foul breath." Uncle Feng lit three incense sticks while continuing to explain to Su Yi, "This breath of foul breath was sucked into his stomach.
, it creates the illusion of inviting the ghost to take over. At this point in the spell, most of it has been completed, and only the last step is left."
After a pause, Uncle Feng asked: "Can you know the soul-calling spell?"
"Yes." Su Yi nodded.
"That's good, it saves me a lot of talking," Uncle Feng lit three incense sticks and spoke faster, "When you recite the soul-calling spell, you still visualize the ghost in your mind."
Then he cleared his throat and recited: "Standing by the Hunyuan River, with Vajra columns on both sides, souls from thousands of miles away have arrived, rushing to enter the body!"
After reciting the four lines of the soul-calling mantra, Uncle Feng inserted three sticks of incense into the incense burner.
"Done!" Uncle Feng clapped his hands and said with a relaxed smile.
"Whether it's Yin spirits or gods, the most direct channel for people to communicate with them is incense, so...hey, look, it's begun."
A magical scene happened. The unconscious Xiao Ming suddenly tilted his head forward, and the incense in his mouth suddenly made a mark forward.
At the same time, a piece of the incense stick in the middle burned quickly. Uncle Feng took out a pen from somewhere and used it to measure the length of the burned incense ashes. Then he quickly flicked the incense ashes off and said quickly: "Help."
I'll mark it down, three."
At this time, Xiao Ming held the incense in his mouth and started to turn left again, making a mark.
At the same time, the incense on the left burned quickly and burned part of it. Uncle Feng followed the same method, measured the ashes of the burned incense, and then flicked the ashes off with a pen.
"two!"
Next, Xiao Ming held incense in his mouth and drew winding traces on the sand table covered with grave soil.
When he "goes straight", the incense in the middle burns quickly; when he "turns left", the incense on the left responds; when he "turns right", the incense on the right also responds.
In this way, Uncle Feng kept reporting a number according to the length of the incense burning.
When Xiao Ming stopped, Uncle Feng took out a small notebook and was about to check the calculations in the notebook. Su Yi said: "No need to forget it, Uncle Feng. Walk along the river for eleven miles and seven feet and three feet, and you will find the bones of Chu Renmei."
Scattered everywhere.”
Uncle Feng looked at Su Yi in surprise: "Have you figured it out?"
Su Yi smiled: "I have read both the "Yugong Territory Map" and "Topography Fengshui Map". This is what we in Xuanmen must understand when looking at Feng Shui. The ratio is used to reflect the area, and the quasi-width is used to determine the distance between the features.
The mutual orientation relationship, Daoli is used to determine the distance of the road between two places, the relative elevation of high and low, and the square is the ups and downs of the ground slope. These are the basics, and I know them all by heart."
"It's amazing!" Uncle Feng was stunned for a long time, and then gave Su Yi a thumbs up, "Huo Tu, you have learned these things so solidly, I'm sure you will be able to learn any technique very quickly! This support tracking method just now
, have you watched it?"
"It should be no problem." Su Yi nodded slightly.
"Young people are awesome." Uncle Feng praised again, looking very happy, "After this matter is over, you must go to Dongpingzhou with me, and I will teach you all the techniques I know! We in Maoshan,
It can be considered that there are successors!”
He paused, walked to Xiao Ming, and said to Su Yi: "You go further, he will have to vent his filth to wake up."
Su Yi followed Shan Ruliu and hid far away in a hurry.
Uncle Feng packed up his things, took the incense out of Xiao Ming's mouth and ran away!
"No..."
After a melodious noise, Xiao Ming woke up faintly and looked around blankly, only to find that everyone was hiding from a distance and looking at him with strange eyes.
Alian and Uncle Li couldn't help laughing.
"What's wrong? Why are you standing there like that..." He suddenly changed his face and covered his mouth and nose mid-sentence, "Damn, why does it smell so bad? Who took a shit here?"
"Hahaha……"
Everyone couldn't help laughing!
On the way to find Chu Renmei's body, Xiao Ming finally found out what happened from A Lian's mouth, and couldn't help complaining: "Uncle Feng, why didn't you say this would happen earlier? You made me embarrassed in front of me.
Teach me how to behave in front of Alian!"
"I just want you to be embarrassed in front of Alian." Uncle Feng snorted coldly, "I'm warning you, don't try to take advantage of Alian!"
"Uncle Feng, I have a girlfriend." Xiao Ming said helplessly.
"Don't think I don't know that you young people nowadays can change girlfriends faster than clothes." Uncle Feng did not let down his guard at all.
