Record of Yin and Yang

Because there used to be no fewer than a hundred animal souls in Zou's house, and the yin and resentment were too strong, which made Zou's house an excellent place to set up a bloody Yin dragon array. In order to prevent being used by those who set up the array, Gu Jiu He and Shao Yi spent some effort to clear them away.

After the matter of the Zou family was settled, Gu Jiu and Shao Yi received a lot of rewards, and gave away half of the money, and let them buy a lot of cinnabar talisman papers they needed, which would be enough for them to spend three months.It was obvious that half of the money was given away and the other half was kept, but Fang Beiming just couldn't keep the money. Since Gu Jiu and Shao Yi stopped following their master, their living standards have risen in a straight line, and the situation of starvation has never happened again.

But without their two mouths, Gu Jiu felt that his master's life should be easier than before, right?

"Farewell now, see you again if you are destined." At the gate of Zou's house, Gu Jiu and Shao Yi bid farewell to Daoist He.

Daoist He is a monk from a Taoist temple in Dieshan County, a city next door to Jingling County. This time he was invited by the Zou family. He has to go back after the matter is over. Gu Jiu and Shao Yi will stay in Jingling County for a while, Check around.

It just rained once, and the next few days are generally sunny. Gu Jiu and Shao Yi ordered a dozen or so small paper figurines to come out, and let them out at night, letting them help to mark the yin and resentment The place.

One night passed, the sky was dark, and when Gu Jiu was in a drowsy sleep, he heard a noise from the window. He opened his eyes and looked over, and saw a dirty little paper man struggling to get himself out of the window gap. Climb down the window in a whoosh.

Gu Jiu put on his coat, walked over to hold the little paper figurine in his hand, and poked its belly, "Why did you get yourself so dirty?"

The little paper man hugged his finger, rubbed it on his face, looked up at him, "Yeah!"

Gu Jiu said, "Did you fall into a puddle? Be careful in the future."

"Hey!" The little paper figurine nodded, then stood there obediently, asking Gu Jiu to wipe off the dirt on it with a wet towel soaked in water.

The little paper people wandered outside at night and came back at dawn.They are afraid of fire but not water, but although they will not be annihilated with flying ash if they get wet with water, the water will increase the weight of their bodies and make it difficult for them to move.Generally speaking, as long as it is sunny, the dew at night has little effect on them.

The little paper man in front of him was completely wet because he fell into the puddle, and his whole body was covered with muddy water. He was still white when he went out, but it was pitch black when he came back.Gu Jiu wiped it's body, only to see that it was cleaner than when it came back, and it couldn't turn white at all.

"Hey~" The little paper man looked at his little dusty hands, feeling very sad.

Gu Jiu calmly coaxed the little paper figurine, and took out the talisman pen and cinnabar.Gu Jiu has encountered this situation countless times, and he is very skilled in dealing with it.

When Shao Yi got up, he saw Gu Jiu sitting at the table by the window with his back facing him, with loose hair and clothes wrapped around him, and there were many little paper figurines standing on his shoulders, wrists and head, all of them were curious. Watching him draw clothes for the little paper man standing on the table.

Shao Yi yawned and didn't bother Gu Jiu.

He turned over and got up, and after tidying himself up, he walked behind Gu Jiu with a comb, grabbed a lock of his long hair, drove away the little paper figurine squatting on Gu Jiu's head, and combed Gu Jiu's hair quietly.

Gu Jiu looked up, grinned and said, "Thank you, brother."

After so many years, Gu Jiu still doesn't know how to comb his hair, and Shao Yi has been a hair combing boy for eight years, and it is estimated that he will continue in the future.

Shao Yi pushed his head back, "Have all the little paper people returned?"

Gu Jiu said, "It's still a few short."

At this time, the dirty little paper figurine put on new clothes, with a picture of red plums on his body, and those places with heavy dust marks could not be seen clearly after Gu Jiu's retouching.Some of the other little paper figurines also wanted to wear this "big red flowered jacket", they grabbed Gu Jiu's clothes and acted coquettishly, asking if they could draw a new set of clothes for him too.

Gu Jiu smiled and nodded their heads, "Line up and come one by one."

After Shao Yi gave Gu Jiu a bundle of hair, the younger brother who went out to play last night came back with the remaining few paper figurines.

Gu Jiu moved quickly, drawing all the little paper figures who wanted to wear new clothes, and then took out the map of Jingling County prepared yesterday, and asked the little paper people to tell the directions and signs they had marked. Make a rough mark on the map.

Then Gu Jiu put them away, "Go to sleep first, and then get up to play at night."

They have a heavy task, and the little paper people brought back a lot of marking points, and they both need to check them in person.Gu Jiu put away the talisman pen and cinnabar, and turned around to find that his senior brother had ordered his face wash, and was opening the door for Xiao Er to bring in breakfast.

Gu Jiu was used to this, he felt that Shao Yi looked impatient on the surface, but that was affected by the Jin Geng aura in his body, if he was a normal person, he should be a more gentle person.Just like when he was living in the Taoist temple, he was basically only responsible for cooking, and Shao Yi was responsible for the usual trivial matters.

The two sat down to eat, and Shao Yi asked, "How many dots are there?"

Gu Jiu counted them when marking them. Almost every little paper figurine brought back one or two points. Nearly twenty of them could be marked on the map, and a dozen or so could not be marked. This requires small paper People lead the way.

In the next few days, Gu Jiu and Shao Yi retreated from the inn rooms and ran around. They were not sure if there was a blood demon dragon formation in these places, but they could hinder the formation when clearing away Yin Qi and resentment By the way, ask the people around if there are any strange things happening at the mark.

When they cleared the dozens of markers one by one according to the distance, they encountered strange things happening in three markers recently. The situation was very consistent with the blood demon dragon formation, so they had to stay at those three markers , wait until the formation is activated on time, and then break it.

Gu Jiu was still a little bit reluctant to break the blood-shattering dragon formation. He would clean up the grudges in the formation, and leave the matter of breaking the formation to Shao Yi.The current Shao Yi is about the same age as Fang Beiming when he was forced to leave the teacher, but his talent is better than Fang Beiming, and he is supported by both Jin Geng Qi and Zhiyang physique. Compared with Fang Beiming, he is only strong but not weak. , Shao Yi broke through the formation quite easily, and he returned after two days of rest for the exhausted energy.

They had just destroyed a blood-fiend Yinlong formation that day. In order to destroy this formation, they had been in the wild for more than ten days.The place where the formation was broken was close to a small town, so Gu Jiu and Shao Yi entered the town, preparing to rest for two days.

Although they have enough money at present, they need a lot of materials to clear the yin and resentment and break the formation, so they can't just sit and eat, and they will choose to set up a stall after passing through some places with more people Fortune teller.If you meet customers with special requirements such as catching ghosts, you can also let them save some accommodation fees by the way.

The two entered the small town, found a lively place, and set up a hexagram booth in the corner. Gu Jiu took care of it, and Shao Yi closed his eyes and rested beside him.

After Gu Jiu sat cross-legged for a while, he saw a middle-aged man in his thirties walking by the hexagram booth, but his footsteps, which were slightly fast, became slower and slower after passing the hexagram booth, and finally stopped and turned his head looked over.

Gu Jiu noticed him, and saw that his brows were tightly furrowed, obviously troubled in his heart, so he smiled and said, "Master, do you want to have a fortune telling?"

The middle-aged man returned to the hexagram stand, stood with his hands behind his back, and asked, "Is it accurate?"

Gu Jiudao: "For sure, you'll know after doing the math." He threw a futon over and asked this person to sit down and talk.

The middle-aged man frowned at the futon, hesitated for a while, and then sat down slowly. He wanted to sit cross-legged like Gu Jiu, but he probably didn't have such experience, so he failed after several attempts, and could only sit with his legs crossed. Close together, sitting awkwardly with hands hugging knees.

Gu Jiu asked, "For birth date horoscopes, face reading, palm reading, or character reading?"

The middle-aged man thought for a while and said, "Test the word."

Gu Jiu pushed a bowl of clean water in front of him, let him dip it in the water and write on the paper.

The middle-aged man was wearing an elegant gown, and he looked like a educated man. He dipped in the water and slowly wrote "Zhao".

Gu Jiu looked at it, and said: "Zhao Han go, take the word, go and leave. If you ask other questions, you will have financial loss and other matters. If you come to ask about illness..."

The middle-aged man said nervously, "So what if you ask about your illness?"

Gu Jiudao: "If you ask about illness, there will be death or injury."

The middle-aged man looked at Gu Jiu in shock, and said, "I want to test another word."

He dipped in water and wrote the word "version".

Gu Jiu shook his head, and said for him: "None of the reverse characters is good, and ten out of ten are the worst disasters. The version with reverse, reverse is contrary to the opposite, no matter what you ask about this character, the ending will not be very good."

The middle-aged man looked disappointed or something, and said: "To be honest, the two words I measured are the first and last name of a close friend of mine. He has been dead for many years, and I always dream about him recently. He is wearing I was dressed in the same clothes when I was buried, and looked at me with a pale face. I only dreamed this dream every few days last month, but recently I dreamed it every day. He always seemed hesitant to speak, as if he had something to say I said."

Gu Jiudao: "Did he die of illness?"

The middle-aged man nodded: "He failed the imperial examination and fell into a slump. He suffered from a heart disease. In the end, the medicine didn't work. When he passed away, he was only 22 years old."

Gu Jiu said: "The deceased entrusted their dreams, usually because they had unfulfilled wishes during their lifetime."

The middle-aged man said: "I thought about it too, but in the dream he didn't talk to me, and I couldn't help him even if I wanted to." He looked at Gu Jiu very hesitantly, "I heard that you priests, but Communicate with the undead?"

When business came, Gu Jiu smiled more politely, "That's right, but the master wants us to help you ask friends?"

The middle-aged man said: "If you can ask the reason, Zhang will be very grateful."

Gu Jiu put away the hexagram booth and picked up his younger brother. Shao Yi opened his eyes without him calling.The two followed the middle-aged man and came to a rich man's house.

Zhang Zhai, a middle-aged man introduced himself as Zhang Yutang.

There was a middle-aged woman looking around in front of the door. When she saw Zhang Yutang, she crossed her hands and saluted and said anxiously: "Master, you are back. Just now, my wife has a fetal gas, and I have invited the doctor to see it."

When Zhang Yutang heard it, his face immediately became scorched: "Why did something happen again?" As he spoke, he summoned his servants to lead Gu Jiu to rest first, and he hurried to the backyard.

Gu Jiu and Shao Yi followed the servants to the guest courtyard, but suddenly heard a woman's mournful and indistinct cry from the direction of the backyard.

Gu Jiu raised her eyebrows, and exchanged a glance with Shao Yi. Is this... something happened to the fetus?
