Several people quickly swam back to the boat, and the boat immediately became festive, with endless cheers.
Old Butler Li couldn't help being taken aback by the fact that the situation didn't develop according to his imagination.
After hastily preparing, the rooster worshiping the water ghost was still fluttering its wings, unaware that it had escaped a catastrophe.
The old butler stared blankly, "No, it's impossible, how is this possible?"
Every big boat that walks must abide by the rules on the river and bring items to ward off evil spirits while walking.
But, what happened today?
Old Butler Li suddenly thought of a possibility, turned his head abruptly, and saw Russell looking at him with a half-smile, he suddenly realized it in his heart, and his attitude became more respectful.
"Dock the boat, go prepare some bamboo sticks, and ask the child's birth date, three souls and seven souls, lost two souls and three souls, probably not far from death!"
Russell said lightly, but his face was much more serious, and he just quietly stared at Jiang's face in a daze.
Old Butler Li didn't know what he was thinking, but he didn't ask any more questions. He responded and went down to prepare.
He only understands one truth, this master is a little god, and gods have their own gods, which he can understand as a mortal.
Old housekeeper Li went, and it took a lot of time. It was easy to find bamboo, but it was difficult to ask the date of birth.
He explained to the child's mother with a face of embarrassment, but the woman just ignored him and hugged her child tightly without saying a word.
"Sister, please listen to the elder brother's persuasion. There is a little fairy on our boat. If your child hit something, please go and beg. The little fairy will definitely help you."
Old Butler Li spoke earnestly, but this group of people only thanked them for saving their lives, and didn't mention the child's birth date at all, mainly because it made him a little confused.
"Nonsense, he was clearly bewitched by an evil spirit. Only when the evil spirit is driven away can the village live in peace!"
An indifferent voice came, old butler Li slowly turned his head, and saw a crooked old woman slowly walking over.
With a hunched body, wearing strange clothes, and slowly raising his head, just one glance made Old Butler Li feel as if he had fallen into an abyss, as if he was facing the cold winter.
What kind of eyes are these?
I can't see any emotion, almost all white, cloudy and unseemly.
But it was such eyes that made old butler Li feel cold all over, he didn't dare to say a word, and boundless fear spread in his heart.
The old woman slowly raised her hand, and slowly extended the crutch in her hand towards Old Butler Li's chest. Old Butler Li's eyes were dull, and he didn't even move.
At this time, an indifferent voice came from afar.
"If you dare to move, you will die!"
Chapter 231 Kongming Lantern Soul Searching Art
The crowd of onlookers gave way one after another, and the old lady turned her head slowly, looking at Russell who was walking step by step.
He was silent for a long time, and after a long time, he finally said a word, "Who are you?"
"a passerby."
The old woman snorted and shook her head slowly. After a long time, she slowly said another word.
"You are not an ordinary person, you are a very powerful person, very powerful, very powerful."
Russell ignored her, and slowly walked up to the woman, pointing his finger on the woman's head, and the woman fell into a deep sleep instantly.
Seeing that Russell ignored her, the old woman said to herself again, "I have seen too much and know too much all my life, so I am blind."
"The old woman is blind but not blind. Didn't you notice that since you spoke, there hasn't been a single voice around, and even the sound of breathing has been even."
Um?interesting.
Russell looked at the old woman in surprise. On the back of his right hand, a lotus flower slowly spun.
As the old woman said, all the people on the shore fell into his illusion and fell asleep standing up.
He slowly raised his hand and twirled his fingers at the old woman, who suddenly felt weird.
Somewhat uncomfortable, he turned his head and looked at everything in front of him in confusion, at his hands, at the long-lost sky.
She actually saw it again!
The sky!This light!
"I can't cure your blindness, who let you see the nonsense, it's only temporary."
Russell stepped aside, and took out the bamboo strips that he had prepared earlier from Old Butler Li, "Tell me, what do you know?"
He could tell at a glance that the woman lost two souls and three souls at the same time, just like a child, which immediately overturned his guess just now.
This is not caused by falling into the water, it was caused before.
The old woman was still in disbelief, and touched her face with her hand, as if to prove that she was not dreaming.
It took a while before she calmed down, "It should be the day before yesterday, the two of them seemed to have seen something, they were frightened, and their souls were scared away."
Russell raised his eyebrows when he said this, and the old woman herself couldn't believe it.
There is a rule in the countryside that it is not allowed to scare young children, because young children are weak in spirit, and once frightened, their souls leave their bodies and they can easily become dementia.
Seriously, just like a dead person who can breathe in bed.
But this usually happens to children, and adults usually don't have such things happen, but such strange things just happened.
The old woman stuck her crutches on the ground, with a helpless expression on her face, she turned her face away to signal the people next to her, beat gongs and drums, and arranged for the dragon lock, but it was of no use.
"This is not a simple loss of soul. It should be that the soul is trapped somewhere. There is no way to teach it back with such a simple method."
easy way?
The old woman was speechless, you little doll, you have a very loud tone.
If you don’t summon souls like this, the sky is everywhere, where do you go to find souls?
But the next moment, the old woman couldn't help opening her mouth wide, and saw Russell bent the bamboo strip with both hands, and took out a piece of paper from somewhere to put it on it.
Three times, five times and two times, a paper lantern appeared like this.
A ridiculous idea was born in the old woman's mind. She looked at Russell in disbelief, and stammered, "You, do you know the Kongming lantern soul-seeking technique?"
Living people have lost things, if they want to find them, they have to use their birth date and hair, ordinary Taoism can do it.
But if the soul is lost, it is necessary for the Taoist priest to open the altar and seek the help of the patriarch to track it down.
In addition to this method, there is also a legendary feng shui secret art-the art of searching for souls with Kongming lanterns.
cocoa……
Russell looked at the excited old woman inexplicably, "Isn't this a very simple spell?"
Old woman: ...
She suddenly took a deep breath, exhaling the depression in her heart.
Kongming lanterns have been around for a long time, and they are very remarkable things.
It has many functions, and the most widely used one is that people fly it on festivals to pray to heaven.
But that is not the real usage. It needs someone with magic power to engrave the person's birth date into the Kongming lantern, then light it up, and take the Kongming lantern high into the sky.
The lantern goes up to the sky, and the birth date engraved inside burns slowly and turns into ashes. What dissipates is suffering, what dissipates is evil karma, and what dissipates is catastrophe.
This is for ordinary people, and for those who practice the Tao, there is another use, that is, to communicate with the sky.
This is already a well-known story, and the Kongming lantern soul-hunting technique is a small application.
A Kongming lantern, asking the way of life and death, slowly ascends to the sky, and there is nowhere to hide the soul of thousands of miles.
But such a secret technique was lost 500 years ago, so how could it still exist in this world?
The old woman was stunned, and under Russell's urging, she slowly said the birthdays of the mother and son.
She is an old gentleman in this village, and countless people have asked her for fortune-telling. As for whether the fortune-telling is accurate?
You can tell by looking at her eyes.
Today's soul call is hosted by her, so she naturally knows the birth date of the mother and child.
Soon, the old witch became suspicious of life, and saw the little doll Russell in front of her write her birthday on a note and put it in the sky lantern.
Then with a light flick of the finger, the Kongming Lantern lit up immediately, chanting the formula in his mouth, and in an instant, the Kongming Lantern was suspended and flew towards a place against the direction of the wind.
The old woman slowly opened her mouth, and stared at this scene with wide eyes.
Suddenly, her eyes suddenly went dark, and she couldn't see anything.
"You just wait here, I'll go to the front to look for it."
Russell's voice came from a distance, and the old woman suddenly realized that her eyes were still blind, and she could only see clearly because she was close to the little child.
The old woman slammed her cane on the ground, and slammed the stick precisely on a young man next to her, instantly waking him up.
The young man woke up immediately, looked around blankly, scratched his head foolishly, "Grandma, what's wrong, why am I here?"
"Why so much nonsense, hurry up and carry me back, something big is about to happen."
The old woman was in a hurry, she was excited, seeing a Feng Shui master with her own eyes, even if she learned a little, it was very meaningful.
The young man let out an oh, and put the old woman behind his back. At this moment, he noticed the people standing quietly on the shore, and the cold wind blew, and his heart felt a little hairy.
"Grandma, why aren't they talking?"
"It will be fine in a while."
"Grandma, these people don't speak, how do you know I'm there?"
The young man had a strange look on his face. Grandma had been blind for a long time, and a stick just happened to hit her, which was strange.
The old woman sneered, "There are so many people, and you are the one who snores the loudest when you sleep, so it's not embarrassing."
young people:……
"Follow the Kongming Lantern, and I'll talk to you about marriage later."
As soon as these words came out, the young man who was still a little depressed suddenly smiled, and his whole body was full of energy.
"Got it!"
……
Russell followed the Kongming Lantern and came to a village. It was so quiet that no one could be seen during the day.
