After washing the teapot, the water was boiling. I poured the boiling water into the teapot and waited for the tea.
Ebi moved his big glasses and waited for me to say something. He seemed to take this matter very seriously.
I didn’t understand the source of Hai Lao’s question, but facing such a senior, there was no point in fooling him, so I said: “Hai Lao, to be honest with you, Zhang Yidan’s real name is Zhang Yuanyi. He was my childhood friend in Xiaoyi Village.
We grew up together, and we are very familiar with each other. If it was not a dream in the Yin and Yang Dao at that time, then the person I saw would be him, not the Daochang Li you mentioned."
"Oh...then this is a coincidence. I heard you mention this name at that time, and later asked Daozhang Li specifically. Although he seemed confused, he definitely had a serious look in his eyes. It seems that this Li
The identity of Taoist Master Li Xiao is very interesting. Could it be that your friend is hiding his secrets and is preparing to show you another identity?" Hai Lao pinched his slightly round chin, and his clear eyes were a little confused.
"What?! Li Poxiao?" I exclaimed, Li Poxiao? That day, a tomb was erected for Zhang Yidan in the cemetery outside Xiaoyi Village. It was he who stole his body! Could this Li Poxiao be so powerful?
Can monsters and ghosts borrow corpses to bring back souls?
"Yes, when he found me at that time, he said that he was a distant cousin of the Li family, Li Poxiao, the successor of Qiankun Dao, and asked me to take him to Yin and Yang Dao immediately to do a big thing. This matter is of great importance and is a matter of life and death.
, it’s not unusual. I thought about it, the Li family is the most authentic among the four major Taoist schools in the county, and Taoist priest Li Poxiao also brought a token of the Li family. I feel in love with the Li family, so I took on the task.
Got off." Hai Lao said, reminding me that he was brought there by Li Poxiao with an order, and his identity was not ordinary.
"To be honest, Mr. Hai, Zhang Yuanyi has died in Xiaoyi Village. The scissors tied with the soul-sealing talisman pierced his chest. Yu Xiaoxue and I saw it with our own eyes. However, we did not immediately respond because of the accident.
Bury him, and when we return, his body has disappeared. Only the tomb is left there, and the memorial tablet erected is signed Li Poxiao!" I tried my best to stay calm, and when I picked up the teapot, my hands were still slightly excited.
tremble.
"You mean...bringing a corpse back to life?!" Hai Lao's mouth opened wide, and the tea he was sipping almost didn't spray onto my face.
"Well, I think it's very possible. You are good at onmyoji, so you should know the secrets here, right? He also left words like 'No memorial in life, no name in death' on the tombstone, indicating that he should know this
The corpse is an empty shell. Zhang Yuanyi’s soul has been dispersed by grandma’s soul-sealing talisman.” I nodded in response, hoping to get some information from him. If Li Poxiao dares to use the corpse to resurrect his soul, I will risk my life to kill Zhang Yidan.
His body was taken back.
"Brother Xia, how much do you know about the soul-sealing talisman? Since it seals the soul, it will not disperse the ghost, right? At most, the soul will be temporarily sealed in the talisman paper. If you meet an expert who understands the talisman, you can also forcefully unlock the talisman.
Yes, even if you don't untie it, if you stay in a place with heavy Yin Qi, it will lose its effect over time. Moreover, Senior Zhou Ying is good at raising ghosts and driving talismans to attract ghosts, but he is not good at this kind of comprehensive
Is it a true sealing talisman? I think, if this talisman is from the hand of senior Zhou Ying, then if the opponent has a powerful soul, although this talisman can seal it for a while, it will be released soon, and it may not be effective again. What do you think?
Have you ever thought about it?" Hai Lao said inscrutably, prompting me to tell the details of what happened.
"Hai Lao said..." I was stunned. In this way, Zhang Yidan's soul probably did not disappear at that time, and there was also the resentful corpse Zhou Xuan. Does this mean that the Soul Sealing Talisman cannot completely seal her? Grandma
That's why Zhang Yidan was asked to get the scissors used by Zhou Xuan?
What about the pair of scissors with the soul-sealing talisman? When I thought about it, I felt cold all over. When I was in the cemetery, I only noticed that Zhang Yidan was gone, but I didn’t care about the scissors!
According to my grandmother's notes, she visited famous teachers after her debut and learned a lot of ways to make talismans. Unfortunately, due to her own orthodox issues, she could not draw many talismans on paper, such as the Tongyin Talisman. These were all drawn from some orthodox talismans.
Taken from the hands of an expert.
There are also things like summoning Ding Jia heavenly soldiers. If the person who draws such talisman paper has not received any official duties and has no support, he has no right to use the spiritual soldiers, and the talisman drawing will become a painting.
Not to mention those who are far away, but those who are close are like Hai Lao. Their Yin Yang family serves the ancient god Donghuang Taiyi, and they borrow the power of the ancient god. If I want to borrow the power of Donghuang, I have never accepted his appointment.
How can other gods pay attention to me? It's possible to use simple spells, but don't even think about advanced ones.
Therefore, there is a unified theory of orthodox and unorthodox successors. The orthodox ones are brought in by the inheritance master, and they beg the gods to recognize them, and then they have the means to make talismans and cast spells.
Unorthodox ones can only use low-level spells, or use talismans passed down from orthodox heirs.
Just like me, the real orthodoxy of the Zhou family is not in me, but in my grandmother and Zhou Xuan, and in the Zhou family.
Zhou Xuan swept through the younger generation of Dao Mai and killed all Dao Mai disciples. What was the reason? It was actually because the Zhou family was good at recruiting ghosts, and relied on them to raise powerful ghosts. She was the direct descendant of the Zhou family, and she was deeply loved by Zhou.
With the exquisiteness of his family magic, he was originally the second Old Demon Zhou, how could he not be powerful?
So even though I know a lot of drawing techniques for attracting and exorcising ghosts, I still can't recruit them. I'm just a novice. I can only rely on some superficial skills to expel ghosts.
Fortunately, by mistake, I had my sister-in-law and grandma at the time. I skipped the step of needing strong strength to subdue the ghosts and took Xijun and Song Wanyi under my command. However, I was proficient in my grandma's secret skills of raising ghosts, so I raised them to control them.
, there is no need to believe in any god and accept his true orthodoxy.
Therefore, for someone like me who has not truly accepted the pure Taoism, even though I do not know how to attract ghosts, I am driven by powerful ghosts, so the Tao of raising ghosts cannot be regarded as too much of a defeat for the Zhou family.
Similarly, I, who did not accept Taoism, could not attract the powerful ghosts in Taoism legends, such as ghost kings, so I suffered a big loss by fighting with others.
If my grandmother had brought me into Taoism at that time and accepted the authentic Taoist traditions, I could be as small as a little ghost, which could be used for reconnaissance and patrolling, and as big as a ghost king, which could crush the enemy in an instant. Not to mention Wu Zhenghua, I would have conquered Xijun and Song Wanyi, etc., and I would have definitely not needed a wife.
My sister stepped in to help.
Of course, I can't hope to ask the Zhou family to pass on my Taoism, because this is not in line with my current situation.
"Well, tell me everything exactly. Maybe I can clarify these things for you. You are only half a Xuanmen person. You have not entered the Taoism, but you are deeply involved in Xuanmen affairs. The situation is really embarrassing.
." Hai Lao still said the same thing, I am half a Taoist.
Ebi is an expert, and I am convinced by what he said. Although I have very powerful ghosts that I can control, but without the orthodoxy, I am like a child with a sword, able to kill the enemy but without the ability to protect himself.
"Oh, I asked Hai Lao to help me. Here's what happened..." I had no choice but to bite the bullet and talk about everything from going to my grandma's Xiaoyi Village for the funeral to now.
"You didn't inherit the Taoist tradition, but you drove tigers and devoured wolves. You died early and came back to life. It's much more fun. No wonder Li Poxiao said goodbye to me when he entered the city god, you are not a Xuanmen person, but you have set foot in Xuanmen things.
If you dare to feed the god-devouring ghost generals, mountain gods and ghosts, and the ghosts have broken into the underworld, something will happen to you someday. He said that before you get into trouble, he will first cut your wings before talking about anything else. So when I came back this time, I also had some advice.
You want to leave this county and go somewhere else to avoid the limelight." Ebi said with a frown while listening.
It turns out that Li Poxiao already wants to get rid of me. I am really angry at this person. You, Li Poxiao, stole Zhang Yidan's corpse and brought it back to life. I haven't come to trouble you yet, but you are weird. You want to kill my Xijun and Song Wanyi.
I really don’t know whether to live or die.
"Old Hai, I believe you know the whole story. My life span has expired. If I don't die now, I might die someday. My grandma was imprisoned in a blood cloud coffin. I will definitely take the old road in Yinfeng Town.
Do you think you can accept me as your disciple and teach me the magic of the Yin Yang family? Let me avoid misfortune and stay away from evil?" I said to Hai Lao sincerely.
Ebi came out of the dead town with yin and yang magic. He is also proficient in astrology and fortune-telling and borrowing magic to form seals. Yesterday, he used magic to compete with Wu Zhenghua. That is his true ability. If I can learn a thing or two, I can also
Ease my crisis. Now that my life span is over, if I have to summon the City God below again, I might not be able to come back.
"It's not difficult for me to introduce you to Taoism. I don't have any disciples, and considering the relationship between you and Senior Zhou Ying, it is my duty to accept you... But my origin is really humble. From the beginning, I have been greedy for fun.
You can learn 10% of the skills of your master, and the person behind you is not ordinary. If you can't do it, I think it's better to find someone more capable. As for the Yangshou issue, I have already found a way to ease it. You see..."
As Hai Lao spoke, he shook his head and his face turned a little red.
"Ebi, I have seen your abilities, how can you be considered humble? Please accept me as your disciple!" I saw that his words were a little loose, so I immediately picked up a cup of tea and offered it to him.
Hai Lao was already a little nervous. He stretched out his hand to stop the tea, and said quickly: "I said it can't be done, it can't be done. Little brother Xia, I want to accept you as my disciple. You also know that the person behind you is not ordinary. I also want to accept you as my disciple."
Are you afraid that you won’t die young enough?”
"If you have to worship, then worship my master. You and I are more or less equal to each other. Anyway, the master is dead, so I won't be able to bear the punishment of the one behind you. Moreover, I am only responsible for introducing you to the Yin Yang family's orthodoxy.
But I won’t teach you any spells, I’ll just teach you the books handed down by your master and learn them yourself. If you don’t understand, you can ask me. Of course, I’ve told you first. There are many things I don’t understand, so don’t expect me to be able to answer you.”
When I heard this, I couldn't help but feel reluctant. It was the Yin Yang family's orthodoxy, which I had coveted for a long time. I immediately shouted: "Senior Brother Hai!"
Anyway, Mr. Hai is not a person who relies on his elders to show off his old age. I am lucky this time. With Mr. Hai as my senior brother, isn’t that just using the skin of a tiger as a banner?
