After finishing speaking, the master took the mahogany sword and dug the hole himself. After a while, he dug out a small pit with a radius of only one foot.
He clapped his hands and took out five talismans from his French cloth bag, and saw the words "Five Elements Clearance" written on the talismans.
After a while, he took out a small bamboo tube with the word "huasha" written on it.
The master stuffed the five talismans into the bamboo tube, glanced at me and said: "You see clearly, this is the bamboo tube for transforming evil spirits, used to hold talismans. There are five five-element customs clearance talismans inside. Five-element customs clearance talismans are generally used.
In Feng Shui regulation, it can play a role in regulating the five elements."
"But why use a bamboo tube instead of a jar?" Lian Xiaoru asked curiously: "In my impression, a jar is generally used to bury talismans underground, and it must be restrained by gold and silver jewelry."
The master nodded and said: "Yes, under normal circumstances, jars are used to bury talismans, and gold or silver is used to suppress them. But today's evil-making talisman is a bit special. This is a water-yin land, and the humidity is very high.
Heavy, the terrain belongs to water. When water is strong, wood or earth is usually used to drain it. Fire can also be used to restrain it. But this is a land of earth and moisture, so using earth is redundant. Wood is just right, and it can absorb the place dry.
The water vapor will intensify the fire, and if five thunder stones are buried on the bamboo tube, the suppressing power will be doubled."
After that, the master picked up another stone, and then used a knife to write a Five Thunder Calming Talisman on the stone.
"Okay, first use the Five Elements Clearance Talisman to regulate the Five Elements Earth Qi here, and then use the Five Thunder Evil Suppressing Talisman to suppress the evil spirit here. Setting up this tactic at the white tiger position on the Yinluo Lake can make the Yin and Yang Qi in the two realms
Separated, difficult to come together.”
After finishing speaking, the master glanced at me and said: "Okay, fill in the soil, put the bamboo tube at the bottom, and the Five Thunder Suppressing Stones on the top. This is the Yin ground, and it is suitable to use Yang Qi to regulate it, so when filling the soil, please two of you ladies
Comrade, please stay away for now!"
After the master finished speaking, Mrs. Chen took Lian Xiaoru and stepped aside first.
I filled in the soil according to Master's instructions. After finishing, Master took us to meet Mrs. Chen and the others, and finally came to the lake again.
It was noon now, and Master was sitting under the willow tree, quietly watching the lake.
"Master, why hasn't the female corpse floated up yet?" I couldn't help but asked out of curiosity.
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Master rolled his eyes at me angrily and said, "It's not yet noon. When it's noon, when the Yin Qi is at its heaviest, I'm sure the female corpse will float."
I was a little puzzled. It is clear that the sun is at its strongest at noon, but Master said that the yin energy is at its strongest at this time. It is very puzzling.
"Master, I don't understand why many Feng Shui masters say that the yin energy is the strongest at noon, but in fact, the sun is often the strongest at that time! Isn't it full of yang energy?"
Master ignored me and just sat under the willow tree, smoking his cigarette. After a while, he stood up, covered his eyes with his hands, glanced at the sky and said, "Hey! The sun is out!
"
After saying that, he smiled at me and said: "Qiao Yang, come here, stand here. Look at your own shadow. Do you find any problems?"
"No!" I looked at my shadow and shook my head at Master.
"Let me ask you, is the shadow shorter and darker now?" Master asked.
"That's right! It's shorter and darker," I said.
"So, the yin energy is the heaviest at noon. Because at noon, the shadows under the scorching sun are the darkest. The stronger the sun, the darker the shadows. Among the people, there is a saying that it is easier to encounter ghosts in July. In addition to the Ghost Festival, there is another
The reason is that the sun is the strongest in the seventh month of the lunar calendar, and people's shadows are also the darkest at that time. This is called the extreme of things. If the Yang energy is too much, there must be excess Yin. This is how the fierce ghosts in July come about."
"Understood!"
After listening to Master's words, I felt relieved.
When I was a child, I heard the old people in my family say that July has the most and fiercest ghosts.
"Look! There's bubbles there." Suddenly, Lian Xiaoru shouted.
Looking in the direction of Lian Xiaoru's finger, I saw bursts of small bubbles popping up on the lake surface, making a "pop, pop, pop" sound.
I saw something, as if it was about to rise from the bottom of the water.
All the people at the scene stared attentively at the bubbles on the lake.
After a while, a huge wave suddenly surged up, and then a snow-white body emerged from the water.
"Look! The corpse is really floating." Lian Xiaoru shouted loudly.
Hans's eyes widened in disbelief, and he looked at the floating corpse. He was surprised for a while, then gave a thumbs up to the master and said: "Awesome! You are indeed a master."
The master said nothing, just watched quietly.
After a while, I saw something white floating out from the other side of the lake. When I took a closer look, I couldn't help but scream.
"Leg! Here comes another leg."
The master threw the cigarette in his hand into the lake, stood up, looked back, and said, "Why hasn't Officer Lin come yet? Qiao Yang, please call her again."
"yes!"
I immediately dialed Lin Min's phone number.
After Lin Min answered the phone.
She told me that she had invited a local villager to lead the way and was on her way to Yinluo Lake. She would be there soon.
After hanging up the phone, sure enough, less than ten minutes later, Lin Min, several companions, and a police dog hurried towards the bank of Yinluo Lake.
Lin Min first saw Hans, and after briefly greeting him, he set his sights on the lake in the distance.
When she saw a corpse floating in the lake, she immediately shouted to a male colleague next to her: "Go into the water and pick it up first."
As soon as he finished speaking, a man in police uniform was about to go into the water to retrieve the body, but was stopped by the master.
"Wait a minute!" the master shouted, and said to Lin Min: "Bring the bowl I asked you to bring, as well as the money to resolve your grievances to pay homage to Emperor Shuiguan!"
"Bring it!" Lin Min nodded.
"Wait until I perform a ritual to eliminate the resentment on the lake, and then you go down to retrieve the corpse. Remember, after you retrieve the corpse, return home, light a pot of fire at the door of your home, and then step over the brazier.
Entering the house again is called removing the yin energy. Although the female ghost in the lake has been reincarnated, the resentment has not been completely eliminated, and it will be unlucky to mess with it."
The master said to Lin Min and his two colleagues with a serious face.
A tall colleague rolled his eyes at the master with disdain: "Hey! Where are you from, a wild Taoist priest? Don't make it so scary. I have been a police officer for five years and I have never heard of encountering ghosts."
.”
"Lao Yang! What do you mean? You don't want to give me face, right? This Taoist priest is my friend, I call him uncle. What? Do you want to do the opposite? Don't forget, I am the main person handling this case."
Lin Min said to the male police officer with a serious face.
"This..." the male police officer smiled and said to Lin Min: "Xiao Min, that's not what I meant."
It seems that this kid wants to chase Lin Min. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so obedient.
I whispered to Lin Min: "Sister Min, you are so domineering!"
Lin Min puffed up her chest and said with a proud look on her face: "If you don't have this charm, how can you be a policewoman?"
After saying that, she handed a red plastic bag to the master. Inside was the bowl that the master asked her to buy and some offerings to worship Emperor Shuiguan.
After receiving the sacrificial supplies, Master began to perform the Dharma by the lake.
He first lit three sticks of incense, then took out three apples and a bowl of rice as a tribute. Finally, he poured a bottle of mineral water into the bowl, took out two grapefruit leaves, and sprinkled a handful of rice on it.
In the bowl.
Master dipped grapefruit leaves in water and sprinkled water into the lake. While sprinkling, he recited the mantra.
After a while, he grabbed a handful of rice and threw it into the lake and the grass on the shore.
Mi fell into the lake water, and soon saw water ripples forming in the lake. At the same time, there was a rustling sound from the water plants on the shore. It seemed like someone was gently stepping into the water.
"What are you doing? Why do you feel like something has walked into the lake?" The male police officer who said that the master was a wild Taoist priest said to Lin Min.
Lin Min smiled proudly and said, "How is it? Have you seen how powerful my uncle is? Let me tell you, my uncle is giving salvation to the water ghost."
After hearing this, Mrs. Chen smiled and explained: "This is not salvation, this is called giving food. It is used to ward off the resentful spirits in the mountains. You see, there are also such sounds in the grass."
As Mrs. Chen spoke, she saw her master scattering a handful of rice on the grass by the lake. She soon saw that the grass fell to both sides.
"First worship the Emperor Shuiguan, then open the flames for the lonely ghosts, and finally give food!" Chen Po smiled at everyone and said: "After completing these rituals, the lake will be considered peaceful."
After the master finished the entire ritual, he put down the bowl in his hand, breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Okay, you can go down and retrieve the corpse."
As soon as he finished speaking, the male police officer from before took off his coat, jumped into the water, and swam in the direction of the floating corpse.
Lin Min saw this and shouted loudly: "Hey! Put on your diving suit."
"No need! The water here is very clear." The man swam towards the floating body in a few moments, and soon he was seen dragging the body and slowly swimming to the shore.
He shook his wet hair, took a deep breath and said, "Take it, this female corpse is very fresh, she looks like she just died."
Two auxiliary police officers immediately stepped forward and dragged the female body ashore. The police officers who had previously retrieved the body swam back again and retrieved the legs and hands of the female body remaining in the lake.
In the end, the female body was placed under a willow tree on the shore, and her dismembered hands and feet were pieced together.
The body of the female corpse was very clean. Except for one hand and one foot that had been dismembered, no wounds could be found anywhere else on the body. Moreover, her appearance when she died was not ugly. She was most likely suffocated to death.
"You guys should stay out of the way first! I'm going to examine the body." The forensic doctor shouted to everyone. After saying that, he covered the key parts of the female body with a piece of white cloth.
At this time, I heard a male police officer couldn't help but whisper: "What a beautiful woman, it's such a pity that she died like this."
After hearing this, Lin Min rolled her eyes at him angrily, "According to what you said, there is nothing to regret about the death of an ugly woman, right?"
"No! I don't mean that." The male police officer replied nervously.
"That's what I mean, and it has nothing to do with me. I'm not ugly. Don't look at me like this, I don't care about your opinion." Lin Min said to the male police officer with a proud look on his face.
Everyone retreated into the distance. Suddenly, they heard Master shout: "Wait!"
"What's wrong? Uncle Zhang!" Lin Min asked.
"I want to see this female body. This woman has been dead for a month, but the body is so fresh. I think someone must have tampered with it," the master said.
"One month? How is that possible? Uncle, aren't you kidding me?" a male police officer said to the master.
The master gave the male police officer an annoyed look and said, "Are you kidding me or not? You'll find out later." After that, he squatted down in front of the female corpse.
