Back in modern times, Lu Zheng patted his chest and took a few deep breaths.
"At sunset and dusk, do ghosts travel?"
After taking off his wig and ancient clothes and putting on modern clothes, Lu Zheng was fully dressed and ready to go out for a walk.
Shocking!
"Zhao Si, do you have time to come out? What, you and your wife are watching a movie, it's about to start?"
"Old Tong? Are you working overtime? Forget it..."
"Xiao Leizi, are you okay? Are you back home during the summer vacation?"
After hanging up the phone, all three roommates were unavailable. This is very embarrassing...
As for the other students, it seems they are not well enough to call them out and start talking nonsense.
If you don’t have friends to accompany you, of course there is another way to relieve stress.
Everyone knows this way of decompressing!
then……
Lu Zheng found a regular high-end massage shop and hired a professional master to give himself a full-body massage from top to bottom.
After going home and washing up, I lay down on the bed and fell asleep directly. I had a dreamless night and was extremely sweet.
Early the next morning, Lu Zheng felt refreshed, energetic and strong.
You can even use the light of luck to increase your physical fitness.
"What! Massage also has the function of making one's body adaptable?"
Life always surprises people, and Lu Zheng had never thought before that he could take the initiative to shorten the adaptation cooling period.
"But don't rush to improve your physical fitness. You have to go to Baiyun Temple again!"
I encountered a ghost last night. Well, I don’t know if it was a ghost yet, but I still have to go to Baiyun Temple again today.
No matter what, you have to find a way to protect yourself. God knows if that thing is targeting you.
It's already getting bright. Those evil spirits shouldn't be able to come out during the day, right? That thing also appeared at dusk yesterday.
So Lu Zheng put on the stab-proof clothing, took the electric baton, and crossed carefully.
"Well, nothing has changed..."
Lu Zheng looked around, then opened the pillow and picked up the same yellow talisman that he placed yesterday.
"That thing didn't come last night." Lu Zheng said to himself and pushed out the door, "Uncle Li!"
"Master!"
Uncle Li appeared with two dark circles under his eyes. It seemed that he had not slept well last night.
"Let's go to Baiyun Temple!"
"Ah, you're still going?" Uncle Li couldn't help being startled. He went there yesterday and encountered a foreign object on his way back. Today he's not hiding at home honestly, so why are he still going?
"If you don't go to Baiyun Temple, how can you deal with that ghost?" Lu Zheng asked.
"Didn't you escape already?"
"How do you know you've escaped? We've already met each other. What if someone comes to your door one day? Aren't you afraid?" Lu Zheng asked back.
When he thought of the ghost coming to his door, Li Bodeng's face turned pale and the corners of his mouth turned blue, "I, I, I... I'm afraid."
"Then why don't you leave quickly? It's getting brighter. Will ghosts appear during the day?"
"No way?"
Uncle Li doesn't know the characteristics of ghosts. Common sense doesn't mention the weaknesses of ghosts. Generally, when encountering ghosts, people will die.
So taking a few steamed buns made by Aunt Liu and the bacon stored at home, Li Bo and Lu Zheng went to the horse and carriage shop again.
Zhang Laoshi's car had been rented out a long time ago. The two of them changed to another car today and hurried out of the city again.
"Go to Baiyun Temple in two days?"
The shopkeeper of the cart and horse shop looked towards the direction where the donkey cart was leaving, his face full of sympathy, "What happened to this?"
…
Baiyun Temple.
Taoist Master Ming Zhang looked at the paper talisman in his hand with a solemn expression.
"Peace Talisman, keep you safe. When the corpse shows no ill will towards you, the Peace Talisman will not show any strange phenomena."
Taoist Master Mingzhang explained, "When the corpse calls you, it means it has malicious intent towards you and its aura is revealed, so the peace charm will warn you."
"I see."
Lu Zheng nodded to express his understanding, and then immediately said, "Please help me, Taoist Priest!"
"What are you trying to save?" Taoist Master Mingzhang looked confused, "Didn't you already escape?"
"He won't come to your door again?"
"Normally not. Since you have not been tempted by him, he will naturally tempt others again." Taoist Master Mingzhang said.
Generally not...
Lu Zheng blinked, "Won't the Taoist minister take action to slay the demons?"
Taoist Master Mingzhang shook his head and said with a smile, "The corpse ghost's whereabouts have disappeared, where can I find him?
Moreover, the way of heaven is constant, and since there are corpses and ghosts appearing, then it is reasonable to take action at will and involve great cause and effect, which is not the way to practice."
To put it in layman's terms, don't stir up trouble if you don't do it yourself, don't stir up trouble if the price isn't enough, it's okay to do as you please, there's no need to take special action, your own practice is the most important.
"Okay, thank you Taoist Priest for clarifying the confusion, but what is a ghoul?" Lu Zheng asked again.
"Ghouls are ghosts that after death, the body rots but the soul remains. Then it is corroded by the underworld's breath and turns into an evil ghost. It eats the heart and harms people in order to be reborn."
"Eating one's heart harms others and seeks rebirth?"
Taoist Master Mingzhang explained, "Ghouls are born with the spirit of the netherworld. They are ugly in appearance and generally exist in tombs, dark and other sinister places. This ghoul obviously has the skill of painting skin and can wander into the human world. Please
Need a substitute."
"The art of painting skin? Looking for a substitute?"
"The corpse ghost eats its heart to refine its body, paints its skin with blood, and finally the body and skin become one. There is no more dead breath, and it can turn into a living person and live for another hundred years."
"hiss!"
Isn't this the evolved version of painted skin?
"What about a hundred years from now?"
"Of course it ended without any illness." Taoist Master Mingzhang said matter-of-factly.
"Can't you cultivate into a ghost fairy?"
"How can it be so easy to cultivate a ghost immortal? It must be a pure soul, refining the essence, energy and spirit, and finally gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to transform into a human body, cough cough."
"In short, you don't need to be afraid, young master. Da Jing Dynasty has been in power for hundreds of years, and corpses don't dare to harm people at will." Taoist Master Mingzhang said.
"The imperial court will take care of it? But the city god?" Lu Zheng continued to test.
"The city gods stationed in the Yin Division are incense ghosts and gods established by the imperial court, but the corpse ghosts are not under their control." Taoist Master Mingzhang said.
Good guy, Lu Zheng is directly good guy, was the City God established by the imperial court?
The water in this world is a bit deep...
I felt that I had said a bit too much, so Taoist Master Ming Zhang ended the topic, "Young Master is not a practitioner, so there is no need to understand these things. Young Master just goes home and studies in peace and establish a career. There is a peace talisman as a warning to ensure safety."
"But what if that ghoul targets me again?" Lu Zheng asked.
"Young master, just come here and watch. I will take action on my own," Taoist Master Mingzhang said.
"But what if it's too late? Do ghosts have weaknesses? Are mortals able to stop them?"
"After all, the essence of the corpse ghost is still a corpse, and it can be killed by ordinary swords and sharp objects. It is just that it is invaded by the aura of the netherworld and has great speed and power, making it difficult for mortals to stop it." Taoist Master Mingzhang said, "If you are worried, you can
Use money to hire guards and keep plenty of clubs, swords and guns to protect you."
Is this still possible?
"If you can really kill a ghoul, it will be considered a meritorious deed." Taoist Master Mingzhang said, "If a ghoul dies, the aura of the netherworld will be dispersed, and mortals will inhale it unintentionally. At least they will become seriously ill, and at most they will be damaged.
Shouyuan, please remember this."
"I see, thank you so much, Taoist Priest." Lu Zheng let out a long breath and asked his last question, "Dao Priest, does this corpse have good luck?"
