After hearing that her father was still alive and well, Sister Liang finally breathed a sigh of relief. So she asked Hu Zongren again, that man is fine, why are you crying? Hu Zongren said impatiently, who knew you
Dad is so old, but it still hurts so much when he hits someone. He punched me in the nose. Can I not cry? I couldn't help but laugh, so I interrupted and said to Sister Liang, your father is fine, we
Something happened during the inspection just now. The situation may be more serious than we thought before. For everyone's safety, I suggest that no one of us go back to the house until this matter is figured out. Sister Liang asked me
He said, "What should I do if my father wants to eat?" I glanced at Hu Zongren and said, "It's okay, let's feed him."
In fact, I was just talking. After seeing Uncle Liang’s terrifying appearance just now, it was hard for me to believe that I would reach out my hand when feeding him. Then I pulled Hu Zongren aside and planned to discuss it with him.
discuss.
Because everything happened so fast after entering the back room, Hu Zongren and I didn't even have a moment to communicate before escaping in a hurry. I think my observation ability is slightly more detailed than that of Hu Zongren, so in such a short time just now
In a short period of time, I actually discovered a lot of new doubts. These doubts make me very scared, so some decisions can only be made after Hu Zongren and I reach an agreement.
The biggest doubt is undoubtedly the metal sheet in Uncle Liang's mouth and the tattoo on the ghost's hand. I had already learned from Sister Liang that it was a lotus tattoo, but after seeing it with my own eyes, I found out
In fact, Sister Liang's description was not careful enough. Although it was indeed a lotus, it was somewhat different from the lotus we usually imagine. It did not appear very concrete, but relatively abstract. The lotus on the tattoo,
It's more like a religious symbol, just like the lotus with Guanyin sitting on the lotus that we see in daily paintings.
If it is a religious pattern, then the lotus should be with Guanyin Bodhisattva. However, many people think that tattooing the image of a god on the body is a disrespect for the gods. Because as a mortal, it is inevitable that there are seven emotions and six desires, but the gods
It is important to have no desires and no demands. Then, for example, when a couple is intimate, the god in the tattoo will form a kind of blasphemy in the process. I am very glad that my own tattoo is just a Fudo Myooh Mantra, although it is tattooed on
chest, but after all, it is the Buddha of my zodiac sign, and I am not originally a Buddhist. At the beginning, this tattoo was just to protect myself from the hidden arrows of Cha Wudao under the guidance of Master Yin from Chengdu. So although I don’t have much
I'm particular about it, but these days, most of what this tattoo brings to me is positive things, so I don't care about it much. But the thing on the ghost's hand is different. In any religion, it is more or less the same.
There are some methods of suppressing and resisting ghosts. The lotus tattooed on the ghost's hand was supposed to be used to intimidate and suppress ghosts, but now it appears together. This is something I didn't expect at all.
In addition, I am very sure that the thin metal piece in Uncle Liang's mouth is actually the lotus flower in the ghost's hand. This also proves that all this was not accidental, but someone did it deliberately. No matter who is using it for what motives.
This metal lotus was placed in Uncle Liang's mouth. Just because someone behind him notified Hu Zongren and me to handle the case without going through the victim. Thinking about it, this case seemed to be aimed at the two of us. I was talking to
When the ghost hand was fighting, it was pierced many times with a rope-head nail. Every time it was pierced, Uncle Liang's body would vibrate. It seemed to me that there was a conflict between the ghost hand and Uncle Liang's body.
A mutual connection was established between them, so I made a bold guess: Could someone regard Uncle Liang's entire body as a hand, and the lotus in his mouth corresponds to the lotus on the ghost's hand?
Another thing I don't understand is that after we followed Sister Liang into the house for the first time, we found that the whole house was tightly closed and it was pitch dark in broad daylight. I regret that none of us thought at that time why.
The curtains and doors must be closed. But when Hu Zongren lifted the curtains and opened the door, Uncle Liang's painful expression clearly conveyed a message to us that he was afraid of light. If it is as I guessed, Uncle Liang
If they echo with the ghost hands, then that means that the two ghost hands on the bed and the ghost behind the ghost hands should be afraid of light. If we really want to deal with it, maybe we have to start from "
Start from the perspective of "light".
After I analyzed these situations and the doubts I noticed to Hu Zongren, that pig, although he also thought that what I said was right, it was still very difficult for us, one tall and one short, to stand at the door and foolishly think of a solution.
It was difficult to solve this problem. So Hu Zongren said to me, do you remember what he said to us at Situ's house that night? I said yes, and he said that if we have anything, we can ask him.
Although he is too old to travel long distances with us, he will still do his best to help us. Hu Zongren said a little embarrassedly, you know, what I don’t like the most is trouble others, but
We may really be a little unskilled this time, so let’s ask Situ. I nodded, and then asked Hu Zongren, should you make the call or should I? Hu Zongren said, you should make the call, I’ll consider it.
It's not as detailed as yours, and you can express it more clearly than me.
So I said to Sister Liang who was standing aside, why don't you go have a meal first, and we will stay here. There are some things we can't figure out that we need to ask the seniors for advice. This is a professional saying, and you are an ordinary person.
, it’s better to avoid it. Although she was unwilling, Sister Liang still agreed. She said that she would go to the other end to eat something first and come back later. After Sister Liang’s figure disappeared around the corner, I took out the phone and called
Master Situ called him.
It is already close to 1 o'clock at noon. Situ and Tiesongzi are both old people. Their work and rest schedules are somewhat different from us young people, so I guess this time is just the time for them to finish eating and then plan to take a nap. I will take advantage of the time.
It was not too late yet, so I called Situ. After Situ answered the phone, the first thing he said was to ask where we were, as if Hu Zongren and I were going to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing. I told him that we were in Jiangbei.
Cheng, you have given us everything, but when we were handling this case, we encountered some things that we didn’t understand. We need you to use your profound knowledge to give us a clear path. Then I will explain it in as much detail as possible.
He told Situ everything that happened since we arrived here.
It was different from usual. Situ usually expressed his opinion after listening to what I said. But when I talked about the ghost hand and the lotus in Uncle Liang's mouth, Situ suddenly gave a rare shudder.
He stopped me and asked me in detail what the lotus looked like. I said it looked a bit like the lotus in religious symbols. The petals of the lotus looked like the flame of a candle and were olive-shaped. Situ asked me if the bottom of the lotus was flat.
Does it have a seat or is it just empty? I said it was empty, but I only judged the one in Uncle Liang's mouth. I didn't take it out to look at it, but I guess it is exactly the same as the one in my hand.
After listening to what I said, Situ was silent for a long time, and then sighed and said, you two kids, the real test begins now! In fact, what I am most afraid of is hearing Situ speak to me in this tone,
Because such a tone usually only appears after Situ knows what happened, and the helpless blame seems to tell me that the two of you are really involved in a huge dispute.
But people are like this. The more ominous the premonition is, the more they hope to know the truth as soon as possible. So I asked Situ anxiously, just tell me, what is going on? Situ said, I think you may have provoked someone.
The secret sect, the White Lotus Sect.
I know the White Lotus Sect, and I can be considered a fan of Mr. Jin Yong’s books. However, in Mr. Jin Yong’s books, the White Lotus Sect often appears in a more mysterious image. In reality, I have repeatedly seen it over the years.
I have come into contact with some real members of the White Lotus Sect. Although they are not as weird and unpredictable as what is written in the book, they are often elusive and appear elusive, giving people a feeling that they are not easy to get close to. Strictly speaking, they are a branch of Buddhism.
Because they worship Maitreya Buddha, in the ghost hunting industry, except for Taoists, shamans, and some Buddhists, there are those who have a well-known name called Onmyoji, and most of them are members of the White Lotus Sect.
Ever since I was still studying with my master, my master had warned me that although the White Lotus Sect is no longer as powerful as it used to be, its tantric sect still left behind many mysterious secrets. It belongs to the "Pure Land Sect". It was originally a sect.
It appeared in the form of religious worship, but because it has been relatively active in history, it was subsequently exploited and became a spiritual force for peasant uprisings. At the beginning, my master also told me that people in ancient times were relatively ignorant, and farmers accounted for the majority.
After being squeezed hard, they need to find a breakthrough. At this time, some religious ideas gave them a very beautiful vision, so there are many turmoils caused by religious calls in history. The most well-known one is
The Taiping Rebellion in the Qing Dynasty.
Although many years later, I can always find a similar trajectory in any change of dynasty. Even in the era we live in today, after giving the people a beautiful promise, they overthrew the original system with the help of the people's power, but
Who knows if there will be another similar trajectory?
So I asked Situ on the phone, I didn’t have much contact with the White Lotus Sect, why did they suddenly sneak in again this time and have a grudge against us, but they were all Taoist priests from Xuanyuan Hui!
