Go down the steps and come to the front of the main hall.
The front of the hall is very empty, but this open space has not been well utilized. Only a rectangular incense burner with three incense sticks is placed in front of the steps.
The three incense sticks look similar to the large incense offered in the temple, but the color is a bit weird, like the sallow skin of a malnourished person. I don't know what materials it is made of.
At this moment.
Li Leping stopped in front of the incense burner, but did not take any further action immediately.
Because he suddenly remembered something in his mind.
"Where should these three incense sticks be used?"
Li Leping's eyes moved.
Although I don't know the specific effects of these three incense sticks, according to conventional thinking, the incense must be lit before it can take effect.
But the question now is, where to light it?
Should I leave it in the incense burner and light it, or should I take it away and light it again?
"I can't worry about it anymore, just take it away and light it in the main hall."
In desperation, Li Leping couldn't care less.
He believes that according to normal thinking, since supernatural props are made by people, the appearance of most supernatural props will have some hints to the user on how to use the supernatural props.
Just like the short stick is used by swinging and hitting, the ghost candle is used just like an ordinary candle by lighting it.
According to this idea, the three incense sticks should be lit before they can work.
After it is lit, what really works is probably the fragrance after it is lit, or some kind of supernatural power that the incense will emit after burning.
But no matter what, after the incense is lit, there must be an effective range, and the influence range of the incense must be in a certain area.
Therefore, it is impossible to light this incense all the way across the main hall, as doing so will have no effect at all.
soon.
Li Leping, who took away a stick of incense, returned to the main hall.
At this moment, everyone was still looking at the three coffins making noises on the altar with fear. Almost no one noticed his departure, and no one noticed his return.
What caught their attention again was the faint smell in the air.
"Do you smell anything?"
As soon as these words came out.
Everyone sniffed, and after smelling the smell, they looked around, and finally converged on a figure who had arrived at the entrance of the palace at an unknown time.
That is a person with a mask on his face, whose face cannot be seen.
And in this man's hand, he held an incredibly thick and long incense stick.
Everyone was impressed by these three incense sticks.
Because these three incense sticks have always been placed on the incense burner in front of the temple, no one has ever dared to touch them.
Obviously, when everyone's eyes were focused on the altar, Li Leping, who acted decisively, had already lit an incense stick without anyone noticing.
A faint fragrance wafted out from the slowly burning incense, but what made people feel a little strange was that there seemed to be another smell mixed with this fragrance.
This is a lighter smell, smelling a bit like something is burnt.
Somehow, many people feel more or less uncomfortable when they smell this burning smell.
Because they always feel that the burnt smell is not like the smell emitted after burning objects, but more like the strange smell emitted after a dead body is set on fire, and various human tissue fluids such as corpse water and corpse oil are burned.
, which makes people feel uncomfortable from the bottom of their hearts.
"Is he the captain of the Asia headquarters?"
"He took a stick of incense and lit it?"
"Did he discover something from time to time?"
The strange smell lingering in the hall suddenly changed the direction of people's attention. At this time, everyone turned their attention to Li Leping and the incense in his hand.
But while everyone was talking about it, they still didn't understand the situation.
"Bang, bang bang."
On the altar, the three coffins made strange noises again and began to shake again.
"No, there's still movement in this coffin."
In an instant, many people's expressions changed, from confusion just now to shock and uncertainty again.
It seems that Li Leping's behavior of lighting incense was wrong and did not stabilize the coffin.
"No, that's not right."
Suddenly, someone seemed to have discovered something.
"Didn't you hear it? The movement this time seems to be a bit weaker than before."
This man's hearing seems to be far better than that of ordinary people. A pair of pale and bloodless ears paired with his sallow face gives people a very inconsistent feeling, as if his ears and face are not one and the same, just because of some weirdness.
The factors came together like this.
But it also benefited from the reminder from this ghost master.
"It seems like this is really the case?"
One of the ghost controllers frowned slightly, unsure.
"Yes, what he said is true, the movement is really decreasing."
A little joy appeared on the face of one of the ghost masters. I don't know if he really heard it or if it was out of self-comfort. In short, he was relieved and breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Bang, bang, bang."
About five or six seconds later, the coffin made noise again.
But this time, many people's faces were not surprised but happy.
Because of the previous reminder from the ghost controller, many people became quiet this time and began to pay attention to the noise coming from inside the coffin.
really.
The movement inside the coffin is decreasing, and the sound is also weakening.
It was as if after lighting an incense stick, as the faint fragrance gradually spread, the three coffins were also affected and gradually calmed down.
Although the smell of incense is mixed with some unspeakable strange smell, it is precisely under this strange smell that the strange atmosphere in the hall seems to have gradually calmed down, and there is no longer the strong cold feeling before.
This fragrance covers part of the corpse smell, making the weird smell here less strong.
at the same time.
"It is necessary to burn incense when chanting sutras and repenting. I actually ignored this."
When the coffin was calmed down again, when Jiang Hao came over and saw the burning incense in Li Leping's hand, he suddenly realized the key point to break the situation.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It was after seeing this lit incense stick that Jiang Hao couldn't help but cursed himself in his heart.
After all, according to normal circumstances, such issues related to the process of the Dharma conference should be figured out by him as a monk, rather than by Li Leping, a layman, who should realize the key points.
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Many times, even if you realize the key to the problem, you will still be undecided when it comes to implementing it."
Li Leping glanced at Jiang Hao, who looked remorseful.
"yes."
Jiang Hao nodded and admitted.
What he must admit is that when it is a matter of life and death for everyone, even if he has some analysis and guesses in his mind, it still requires great courage and determination to actually verify the guesses.
Because no one can guarantee that his guess is correct, let alone whether his guess will lead everyone into a new big pit.
Sometimes it must be admitted that the reason why Li Leping dared to break the situation with a tentative attitude was because he was sure to take action to contain the situation when it worsened, instead of letting the situation collapse in an instant and destroying everything.
Everyone was beaten to death.
"Strength and mentality are indispensable for a team leader."
Jiang Hao understood that this was the difference between ordinary ghost masters and captain-level ghost masters.
Only the truly top ghost masters have the intimidation power to intimidate the ghost masters under their command, the power to reverse the situation at critical moments, and the determination to shoulder the lives and deaths of everyone.
In emotion.
The main hall has completely returned to its original calm.
The three coffins on the altar no longer made any noise, and the strange supernatural phenomena had subsided. The people in the audience who had been anxious could finally breathe a sigh of relief and let go of their tense nerves for the time being.
However, no one dares to really relax at this time.
Everyone invariably focused their attention on the incense in Li Leping's hand, as if this incense, which looked no different from the large incense burned in the temple, had some kind of magical power, and people couldn't take their eyes away after seeing it.
.
"This incense seems to have the ability to calm evil ghosts and put them back into a deep sleep. The sleeping ghosts will naturally not attack anyone."
Li Leping was also observing the slowly burning incense stick in his hand.
When this incense with supernatural power is lit, the secret about this incense is revealed.
After the incense was lit, the three coffins on the stage gradually calmed down. Although the calming speed was not very fast, and it did not take effect immediately as soon as it was lit like the ghost candle, but for the current situation, this incense
The ability is incredible enough.
This incense seems to have the ability to make ghosts stop their actions. From Li Leping's point of view, this ability is undoubtedly much more useful than ghost candles, because judging from the current situation, although it takes a while for this incense to take effect, once it succeeds
If it works, the benefits will undoubtedly be huge.
For Li Leping, and even for everyone in the hall, the ability to put ghosts into a deep sleep is obviously more useful than the ability to block one or two attacks from powerful ghosts.
The days to come are still long, and sooner or later there will be a head-on confrontation with ghosts.
If that time really comes, compared to the ghost candle that will burn out after being attacked by ghosts a few times, this thick and long incense stick that can burn for a long time at a glance is obviously better.
"But, what will happen if this thing burns out? Will the ghosts immediately start to recover again, or even show signs of recovery faster than before? Or maybe the effect of the incense can last for a while, allowing the ghosts to sleep for a while longer, or even
Sleep longer?"
However, Li Leping was not dazzled by the magical power of this incense stick.
He understood that although judging from the burning condition of the incense, this incense could still burn for a long time, at least for several hours.
However, there are always some invisible hidden dangers in supernatural props.
There are always very few supernatural props like Ghost Candle that can be used without any cost.
Although the incense burning at this moment has temporarily calmed down the changes in the three coffins, no one knows what the price is behind such calming.
"And no matter how powerful the incense is, there are only three incense sticks in this temple right now."
Another thing that worries Li Leping slightly is the lack of quantity of incense.
There are only three incense sticks in the temple. Judging from the current trend, in order to survive today smoothly, one of the three incense sticks must be exhausted today.
After burning one incense stick, there are only two incense sticks left.
But they still have six days of danger to survive.
Two sticks of incense are obviously not enough to last for so many days.
"Let's take it one step at a time. At least no one will suffer losses today. This is somewhat good news."
In any case, the situation today is considered stable.
"There shouldn't be any problems today. Jiang Hao, go outside and take the two sticks of incense and put them away."
Seeing that the situation was stable, Li Leping began to make new arrangements.
He knew that although most of the group of ghost masters gathered in the hall had not yet understood the situation, these people were not too stupid. After a while, they would definitely figure out the reason why they could survive today.
What Li Leping fears most is that some idiot will take advantage of the two incense sticks to take advantage of him when he is not paying attention or is busy dealing with a crisis.
There will always be idiots who delay things because they don't understand the situation.
Just in case, he asked Jiang Hao to put away the remaining two sticks of incense to prevent someone from stealing the incense with unclean hands and feet.
"good."
Jiang Hao knew that Li Leping needed to stay in the main hall with the incense, so he acted quickly. He came to the steps and took the two incense sticks, put them into his own cloth bag, and then returned to the main hall.
.
"I've already put it away."
After doing all this, after looking at the main hall which had temporarily returned to stability, Jiang Hao asked: "Captain Li, now that we are temporarily settled, we might as well discuss matters about tomorrow."
Although he believes that the next process will be difficult for him to predict as accurately as before, but by exchanging more information, perhaps the situation will not be disrupted by emergencies.
"Yesterday you thought the process might change in the next seven days, but judging from the supernatural phenomena exposed today, your judgment about the next day was correct."
"If the second day is to carry out the Dharma conference according to the process of chanting sutras, worshiping and repenting, then according to the normal process, the next third day should be about issuing talismans and hanging flags, so as to achieve the flow cycle between the two days before and after.
Linked together.”
Li Leping came up with this guess after thinking about it while holding the burning incense.
"Is it possible that I am too cautious and think too much?"
Jiang Hao frowned and touched his chin, feeling a little unsure.
Judging from the various phenomena yesterday and today, it seems that the process of the Dharma conference held in this temple still followed the public perception of the Dharma conference process, and there were no changes as Jiang Hao worried.
"It's always right to be cautious, but if it's true that the third day will be when talismans are issued and flags are hung, then preparations should be made early." Li Leping said.
"The traditional method of sending talismans and hanging flags is to send four messengers carrying 'runes' to report when and where the water and land Dharma Assembly will be held in heaven and earth, in order to hope that the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas and sentient beings in the six realms will receive the 'runes'
Anyone can come to the Dharma gathering. Hanging flags means setting up flags and flags at the Dharma gathering site as a landmark guide so that invitees can arrive smoothly. There is a saying that the higher the flags are hung, the more grand the Dharma gathering will be.
big."
Jiang Hao, who has always kept the process of the Dharma meeting in mind, immediately explained the corresponding matters that need to be done in the traditional Dharma meeting.
But after he finished speaking, his face darkened: "Let's not mention what will be used to attend the ceremony in the end. How are we going to distribute the talisman hanging flags in this damn place?"
Hearing this, Li Leping looked behind the palace door.
"At least there is an envoy."
The four paper figures riding paper horses are still standing there quietly, never moving.
