Artisans in Tunli

Chapter 65 Returning to Yinyang Tun

"What? Are you sure?" The master extinguished the cigarette in his hand and said with a blurred look in his eyes.

I don't know why he reacted so violently, but I've never seen him so excited before, so I hurried over to help him, for fear that he would faint because he got up too violently.

He pushed my hand away and started pacing in place, with beads of sweat hanging on his forehead.

I saw that he didn't mean to say anything, so I hurriedly shifted my gaze to the teacher's face.She seemed to be thinking about something too, the quiet atmosphere made me and Qingfeng look dazed.

"Hey", the teacher let out a long sigh, and said slowly: "Muzhen, I didn't want to talk about it at first, do you still remember that I received a phone call during dinner?"

The master stopped and looked at her with a frown.

Mistress put down the whisk in her hand and continued, "Actually, that phone call was about Yinyangtun."

When my wife mentioned Yinyangtun, my thoughts were brought back to the master's notes.Typos and language problems throughout the text.

It turned out that the call my wife received during dinner was from the village head of Yinyangtun.Due to the historical problems of Yinyangtun itself, and the lack of cultural traffic, most of the villagers are very superstitious. No matter what happens, they like to blame ghosts and gods.

Perhaps after ten years of turmoil, the beliefs of the people in Yinyang Tunli have been destroyed.

Just last week, the village head received complaints from several families.It is said that there are thieves in the village now, who specialize in stealing poultry and livestock.

Under pressure, the village chief organized a militia team to conduct investigations.In the first two days, nothing similar happened, but from the third day onwards, chickens, ducks and geese from several families were stolen.

There is not much space in this village, and it is only a 20-minute walk from Nantun to Beitun.So the village head mobilized everyone, if they want to keep their property, the whole people should work together.

As soon as this remark came out, every household in this family picked up hoes and sickles, and took turns guarding their own homes at night.

This time it's good, the chickens, ducks, geese and dogs are not lost, and it's starting to be embarrassing.

Lao Wang's family in Nantun is all missing.The village chief panicked now, it seemed that things were not so simple this time, and he planned to call the police.

At this time, someone came out and stopped the village chief.Tell him that this matter cannot be solved even if the police come.Go to Maoshan and ask a Taoist priest to come and take a look.

When the village chief heard this, he also felt that the matter was very evil, so he immediately contacted his old comrades in Maoshan.Hearing that this kind of thing happened in the village head's village, he gave the village head the teacher's wife's contact information.

And there it was, the scene at dinner.

"Master, what do you think? Zombies did it?" I asked her, but she didn't rush to tell me, she just looked at the master without blinking, waiting for him to make a decision.

After listening to the teacher's wife, the master also felt that things would not be so simple.

"You two are housekeepers, I'll go and have a look with your mistress." The master looked at me and Qingfeng, said quickly, turned around and went into the house to start packing things.

"Master, you two are so old that you can't stand the torment. Let me go and have a look. I have also had the experience of fighting zombies before, so it shouldn't be a big deal."

While tidying up inside, the master said loudly: "The zombies you dealt with are different from this time. Don't follow me around and take care of the house!"

Since the master couldn't make sense here, I turned my eyes to my wife again. She deliberately avoided my eyes, and then said to me:

"It's not that Master doesn't want you to go, it's just that the zombies he's dealing with this time are really different from the ones you've dealt with before. He has already sucked so much animal blood and human blood, and he has already become a climate. It's the most powerful time. Tomorrow night It's the full moon, and I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to deal with."

I lowered my head, thinking about what they said, it seemed that I really couldn't deal with it.Although the Hanba he encountered before was stronger, he had the experienced Jiang Nianqing by his side, and the talented Xiao Qi.Without them, I really am nothing.

But thinking about the age of the mistress and the master, I also sweated for them in my heart.

No, I'm still pretending to compromise first, and then trying to find a way to sneak to Yinyangtun and observe in secret. If there is any accident, I can also help.

I looked at Xu Qingfeng next to me, and it seemed that she also had the same idea as me.

Follow her to the door, tell her in a low voice what needs to be prepared, and then go back to the room to rest.

As the old saying goes, full lethargy, hungry distracted.It's easy to get sleepy when you're full.But tonight, I tossed and turned in bed for a long time, but I didn't fall asleep.The mind is full of zombie faces, shriveled and covered with white hair.

If you can't sleep, don't sleep for now, and draw two more talismans.

In addition to refining Qi for a while, I also arranged a task for myself, which is to study well and deal with spells like zombies.With the help of my wife, I have made some progress.

The talisman of Maoshan Technique is actually more inclined to deal with monsters such as zombies.Moreover, drawing talismans also pays attention to rules and regulations, unlike the kind of fooling around that my master taught me.

However, I have been lazy for a long time, except when my wife is looking at me, I will draw step by step.Other times, I still use the simple method of the master.

Before dawn in the morning, the breeze pulled me out of bed.I stared at her in bewilderment and asked her what time it was.

When she saw that I was wearing a pair of underwear, she hurriedly turned around and said that it was past six o'clock.Master and wife have already caught the early bus and left.

When people get older, they just feel less.Those of us young people can't compare.

Hearing that Master and Mistress had left, I hurriedly put on my clothes and packed the talismans carefully, for fear of missing anything.

"Suppressing Corpse Talisman" and "Zhang Tianshi Talisman" are my first choices. The "Lei Qilin Talisman" must also be carried, not because of fear of resentful spirits, but because of the high quality of this talisman.

Qingfeng only brought some paper money and a mahogany sword.Seeing that I was carrying so many magic tools, I said with a sad face: "I'm almost done, the master hasn't taught me any magic."

Seeing her resentful look on her face, she quickly comforted her: "If I don't teach you, it may not be a bad thing. Before I learned Taoism, I was a happy little dick. Now, I feel that it is dangerous to go anywhere. Think about it carefully, I haven't smiled happily in a long time."

Both of us are miserable people.

There is no sun outside today, it is gloomy, and there is no telling when it will rain.

After getting in the car, Qingfeng has been dozing off.It seems that she didn't sleep well last night.

"You can sleep with me for a while, and I will call you when it arrives. You may not know when you will be able to sleep at night."

I saw that she was hesitating all the time, with two blushes still on her cheeks, and I thought that she should have never been ambiguous with boys before, so it is reasonable to feel embarrassed.So he put his hand over her shoulder and hugged her.

I could clearly feel the rapid beating on her neck, and in order to relieve her embarrassment, I put on the earphones for her.

More than an hour's drive, plus more than half an hour on the mountain road, if it was in the past, I would have already started to suffer from shortness of breath.But now that I've learned to absorb the natural energy, I feel extra relaxed.

"The front should be Yin Yang Tun, look over there." Xu Qingfeng panted and pointed to the small village hidden in the jungle in front of him.

I nodded and pulled Xu Qingfeng to continue walking forward.

Before entering the village, I saw the stone tablet on the picture.The history of the village was recorded in red paint on it, and I read it hastily, but found no useful information.I just know that this place already existed during the reign of Chongzhen in the late Ming Dynasty.

"There's a broken Taoist temple over there, let's go and have a look." Seeing Xu Qingfeng nodding, I dragged her up the hillside on the left side of the main road.

I don't know if this Taoist temple is the place where the master died. Weeds are everywhere, and there is no grave.I briefly told Qingfeng what happened to Master here that year. In fact, even if I wanted to talk in detail, it was impossible.

Because I always feel that what the master records in his notes is incomplete.

Quickly cleaned up the ground in front of the altar, this is where we temporarily hid.After polishing the dust off his body, he found that his body was very clean, and the Taoist robe was spotless.

Touching the soft Taoist robe, I thought that the development of science and technology is really fast, and this nanotechnology has been applied so skillfully.I have to ask Liu Chunli for a few more sets when I go back, so I don't have to do laundry in the future.

Standing on the broken wall outside the Taoist temple, you can enjoy the overall appearance of Yinyangtun from a condescending height.The village runs north-south, and looks like a circle when viewed from above.

On the right side of the main road, there are houses of different sizes, but the overall specifications are similar.But on the left side of the main road, there is no house, not even a blade of grass.The only building is an ancient well that has long since dried up.

The village divided in two by the main road is like a huge yin and yang circle, and the dry well is the point in the yin and yang circle.

Then I looked at the side of the village, and there should be a well corresponding to it.

I turned around and asked Xu Qingfeng: "When you look at the village, does it seem that something is missing?"

She was tying her hair, and when she heard my question, she looked at it carefully.

"It seems that there should be a well over there, so it's comfortable to look at. Is it blocked by the house?" she said.

I didn't answer, because looking at the layout and planning of this village, there was a high probability that an expert had prepared the Feng Shui array in advance.These things cannot be changed casually.If the feng shui changes, it could be a man-made disaster or a natural disaster.Could this be the reason that caused the plague that year?
In any case, judging from the current situation, it is not possible to jump to conclusions.

Suddenly, I saw the master and his wife coming out of a house.Hastily pulled Qingfeng, squatted down.

It seems that they also found that there is a missing well, and they are going there.I looked at my watch, it was just past noon, even if there were zombies, which forest or cave should I be in to absorb spiritual energy now.

"Let's take a rest, it won't be dangerous in broad daylight." I said to Xu Qingfeng.

After noon, the sun leaked from the sky, and when the temperature rose, people would feel sleepy.We both ate a few mouthfuls of dry food indiscriminately, and planned to take a rest.He took off his Taoist robe and spread it on the ground, and the two of them fell asleep on it.
