Fang Liqun also worked hard, and dozens of people chanted the mantra non-stop for two hours before they stopped.
The Taoist boy handed a glass of water to Fang Liqun. Fang Liqun raised his sleeves and wiped the sweat from his forehead. It seemed that reciting ancient prose was also a physically demanding task.
After Fang Liqun drank the tea, he raised his hand to beckon Deng Deyou to come to him and said something to Deng Deyou with a serious face. Deng Deyou glanced at the warehouse and kept nodding.
Uncle Ding returned to the car to get cigarettes and told us that the fake Taoist priest had deceived Deng Deyou and that he would soon start the official practice of exorcising ghosts.
Chujiu, who was half lying down in the back seat, suddenly turned his eyes and told Uncle Ding that he must not go back to the car unless we call him.
Uncle Ding asked the reason, and Chujiu just smiled and said that since the fake Taoist priests wanted to exorcise ghosts, they should make it look more real.
On the ninth day of the lunar month, I once again reminded Uncle Ding to ask Deng Deyou and the others to stay as far away from the altar as possible.
"Chujiu, if you have any ideas, why don't you tell me directly and why are you trying to fool everyone?"
Facing my inquiry, Chujiu glanced out of the car window and said with a wicked smile that he would not take action this time, but would call Jing'er to help.
"Jinger?"
I suddenly understood what Chujiu meant by making the practices of fake Taoists more authentic.
I stared at Chujiu. After school started, this kid had more and more bad ideas recently, probably because he often hung out with Zhang Feng.
Chujiu took out a piece of talisman paper from the cloth bag at his waist, made a strange gesture, and whispered a curse.
"The clear sky and the clear earth invite the gods of the road to come to the altar, hurry up the psychic soldiers and psychic generals, and quickly come to me to open my ears, channel my spirits, and connect to the gods. I have come to enlighten my spirits, enlighten my spirits, and connect the Yang world.
Passage to the underworld. I follow the command of the supernatural power of the road, and it is as urgent as the law. Jing'er, come quickly! Jing'er, come quickly! Jing'er, come quickly!"
After reciting the talisman, Chujiu put his index finger into his mouth, bit his finger with his teeth, and a drop of blood fell on the talisman paper.
"Brother, do you miss Jing'er? It's the first time you call Jing'er. Jing'er is training her subordinates."
A burst of mist rose from the car. Jing'er, wearing a camouflage combat uniform and holding a Desert Eagle pistol, appeared and looked around, then turned on the coquettish mode.
"Okay, stop making trouble, aren't you curious about what those people outside are doing?"
I reached out and touched Jing'er's head. The little girl seemed to be staring more and more. If it weren't for the fact that there was no shadow, she would look like a normal person.
"I don't care what they do, it's enough for me to see my brothers."
Jing'er said this, but still looked at the crowd outside.
"Brother, what's so interesting about a bunch of charlatans? It's not fun at all."
Jing'er could tell at a glance that the group of people wearing Taoist priest costumes didn't have any Taoism at all.
"Let your brother Chujiu tell you, I need your help with this matter."
Chujiu focused on the matter and told Jing'er the cause and effect, and also stated the purpose of calling Jing'er here.
"This is too simple. Brother, just wait for me. I will come back to the territory."
After Jing'er finished saying "I", the figure gradually disappeared. When he reappeared, there was a young man wearing armor beside him.
"The last general, Black Bear, pays homage to the lord!"
The young man floating in the air looked at everything around him with his eyes spinning, as if he was curious about everything.
It turned out that the person coming was actually the deputy commander of the Black Bear that Jing'er mentioned many times. A fallen soldier of the Sui Dynasty would inevitably have such an expression when he saw the world more than a thousand years later.
"You're welcome. Jing'er often talks about you. I'd like you to help Jing'er more with her official affairs."
I just said some polite words to the black bear, and the black bear knelt down on one knee and clasped his fists in salute.
"My lord, my subordinates must fulfill their duties. The eldest lady said that my lord has an important task to entrust, and I would like to ask my lord to make it clear."
Chujiu curled his lips and muttered that people in ancient times were too old-fashioned.
After Black Bear heard this, he expressed his determination to Chujiu again and vowed to protect Jing'er.
"Okay, Deputy Captain Black Bear, my brothers are not used to you being like this. Please listen to the tasks that your brothers have given you."
Jing'er was sitting in the middle of the back seat of the car, like an unreasonable little bully. Her head was leaning on me, her feet were placed on Chujiu's legs, and she was waving her little hands and impatiently scolding the black bear.
Chujiu told Hei Xiong his plan. After hearing this, Hei Xiong was stunned and looked at Jing'er with a look of joy.
"I said you big stupid bear, do you understand? You are stupid."
The black bear seemed to be particularly afraid of Jing'er. After being scolded by Jing'er, he immediately clasped his fists and saluted, saying thank you for Jing'er's cultivation.
It turned out that Jing'er returned to the territory and ordered the military advisor's logistics team to drive him to Qilin City in the Nether Ship. After seeing the black bear, Jing'er casually said that he would give him an important task. If the task is completed, he will be rewarded with military merit.
.
After Heixiong heard that Chujiu had finished the task, he became excited and couldn't stop thanking Jing'er.
From Black Bear's point of view, this task couldn't be simpler, as if Jing'er was giving him military merit for nothing.
Only when you have accumulated military merit to a certain extent in the underworld will you have the opportunity to be selected by the underworld.
Each city has military merit reward missions released. How many well-known generals during their lifetime broke their promises in order to successfully accept the mission. You can imagine how difficult it is to obtain military merit.
The mission issued by Lord Jing'er is completely equivalent to giving away military merit for nothing.
The eldest lady is so obviously giving away military merit for nothing. Think about how you went from being a lonely ghost to a bandit, and then becoming a guard of the Qilin City after meeting the eldest lady. When you have enough military merit, you may even become a Yins Lord like the eldest lady.
The more Black Bear thought about it, the more excited he became. He could no longer hold back and was gearing up. When Chujiu gave the order, he was about to rush out.
After Fang Liqun rested for a while, he stood back in front of the altar table and looked like he was overworked. Someone in the crowd of onlookers shouted, "Young master, please take a rest again."
Fang Liqun answered everyone with a grateful smile and replied loudly that the best opportunity to subdue the sneaky must not be wasted.
Then Fang Liqun waved his mahogany sword and shouted loudly. The Taoist boys who were originally sitting in a circle around the altar stood up and changed their positions, dividing into four directions and leaning back to back.
"This is the Four Directions Heavenly Spirit Formation. It can ensure that there will be no more sneaky things within a radius of ten miles."
Fang Liqun lit three pillars of incense again, threw a handful of paper money into the air, and then swung his mahogany sword and sprinkled a handful of white powder into the incense burner.
The incense burner burst into flames with a bang.
The crowd of onlookers once again exclaimed, and Fang Liqun raised the corners of his mouth with satisfaction.
"The Tao can be Tao, but it is not Tao. It is the beginning of the nameless heaven and earth; it is the mother of all things. The gods from all over the world have blessed me and granted me supreme power to recover the sneaky menace that is harming this place. My Lord, I am as urgent as the law!"
After Fang Liqun finished reciting the spell, he shouted "Urgent like a law" and pointed the mahogany sword directly at the roof of the warehouse.
A burst of white mist floated from the roof of the warehouse again, and the onlookers applauded. Seeing Fang Liqun holding a sword and glaring angrily at this time, I think if it were half a year ago, I would be like the onlookers, believing that he is a wise man.
"Black Bear, it's your turn to appear. Remember not to scare the onlookers." Chujiu saw the right moment and said to the Black Bear floating in the car.
"Don't worry, my lord, if such a small thing is going to go wrong, I'm willing to apologize with my head!"
"Why does brother want your head? You stupid bear, you would have known that Black Tiger was coming."
Just as Jing'er finished speaking, the black bear turned into a puff of smoke and disappeared.
In the blink of an eye, the wind roared with the roof of the warehouse as the center, and the dead leaves drifted away in the wind.
Uncle Ding glanced at our side and pulled Deng Deyou away. The crowd suddenly became silent. Everyone leaned as close together as possible, holding their breath and staring at the vision on the roof of the warehouse.
Fang Liqun, who was posing in a cool pose, had a bigger smile on his face.
It was really an eye-opener. The original dry ice effect was shocking enough. Unexpectedly, a strong wind came up at the critical moment, and the atmosphere effect was even more perfect.
"It turns out there really is a ghost!"
"What they said two days ago turned out to be true. Someone heard a ghost crying in the warehouse at night."
"Stop arguing, the master is going to cast a spell to catch ghosts, look!"
The crowd instantly exploded and began to whisper, but was quickly interrupted by Fang Liqun's behavior.
Fang Liqun waved his mahogany sword and pointed at the altar, then sprinkled a handful of white powder, and a burst of fire shot into the sky.
Chujiu told me that this powder is actually flour with some white phosphorus added, which has a very low ignition point. It will explode when exposed to flames, which is one of the most common deception methods used by charlatans.
"Not to mention, you, the deputy leader of Black Bear, are definitely a talent. The atmosphere here is really as haunted."
After staring at the warehouse yard for a long time, I just praised the black bear, and Jing'er giggled and asked me, what is the black bear if it's not a ghost?
"Well, it's really..."
Seeing that I was speechless for a moment, Jing'er, who was playing with car accessories, happily smiled and said to us.
After all, Black Bear was born in the Sui Dynasty, and he had seen many real Taoist priests' practices. In addition, there were people from all dynasties in the legion, and he had heard of countless tricks.
Jing'er just let us watch the black bear's performance.
Fang Liqun performed harder and harder, waving his mahogany sword back and forth, walking around the altar table with strange steps, and shouting words that even he himself could not understand.
"His worthless face really embarrasses us Taoists."
Chujiu's words became colder and colder. I believe that if he met Fang Liqun in the wilderness, he would probably be beaten by the sinister Chujiu until he couldn't get out of bed for half a year.
"Brother Chujiu, don't be angry. Look, Black Bear is going to take care of those bad guys for you."
Jing'er shook Chujiu's arm and pointed at the black bear floating directly above the altar.
Chujiu changed from furious to calm in an instant. She shook her head and said that Jing'er was more coquettish than her sisters in the village. Jing'er smiled sweetly and said that it was all because her brothers loved Jing'er that she acted like this.
The black bear glanced at us, took a sudden breath, and blew it towards the altar.
Fang Liqun, who was swinging from left to right and waving his mahogany sword in a triumphant manner, was blown to the ground by the sudden hurricane. The Taoist boys sitting around the altar table were also blown to and fro.
The black bear made another strange gesture, and a bolt of lightning as thick as the mouth of a bowl struck directly at the incense burner on the altar.
"The fight has begun, the fight has begun. It seems that the little Taoist priest is defeated by the fierce ghost. Let's move back."
There were sharp-eyed spectators in the crowd. Seeing Fang Liqun, who was covered in disgrace by the flying incense ash, they urged everyone to stay away from the courtyard wall to avoid being affected by the evil spirits.
