Record of Yin and Yang

Near evening, Shao Yi and Fang Beiming came back.

The two bought a bunch of things, and it is not yet confirmed whether the white horse is Baixue, but no matter whether it is or not, Dong Xiuying plans to perform a ritual ritual for Baixue.In fact, this is the most suitable thing for a monk to do, but Fang Beiming is the kind who is best at catching ghosts, but he seems to know everything else as long as he has a touch of Taoism, so he doesn't bother with one job.

As soon as Fang Beiming came back, he was busy making some props that Gu Jiu didn't quite understand.

Gu Jiu gave the scroll to Shao Yi.

Shao Yi opened the painting, took a look at the painting, and then took another look at Gu Jiu.

Gu Jiu hurriedly said: "This is General Dong.

Shao Yi said: "Of course I know, you are so ugly, and I am not blind."

Fang Beiming next to him focused on two things and let out a chuckle.

Gu Jiu: "..." He silently looked at his skinny body, well, he really might as well draw the round and cute face of General Dong when he was a child, but brother, what you said is too hurtful, right? !

Gu Jiu was full of grievances, but she only dared to whisper in her heart.

After Shao Yi finished reading, he returned the scroll to Gu Jiu, "You pretend to be this."

"Oh." In addition to the cloth bundles for home belongings, Gu Jiu also has a package, which was given to him by Fang Beiming, and asked him to use it to hold talisman paper props and the like. It is quite big, and he is short, so the package can be opened directly. to the bend of his leg.So far, there are not many things in this package. They are all the pens, inks, papers and inkstones that Gu Jiu needs to use, as well as a few pure heart charms that he drew with mediocre effects. When Gu Jiu puts the scroll in it, the scroll will become the largest. .

That night, Gu Jiuji pulled on his shoes, walked to Shao Yi's door, and before he knocked, the door opened.

Gu Jiu cautiously smiled at Shao Yi.

Shao Yi rolled his eyes angrily, and resigned himself to his fate to let Gu Jiu enter the room.

You hour the next day is the seventh cloudy hour of the next "seven", so after lunch, Gu Jiu and the others went to the mass grave again.

The Dong family's servants are still guarding here in shifts, so naturally they found nothing.In order to prevent any accidents and have no time to worry about them, after Gu Jiu and the others arrived, Fang Beiming asked the servants of Dong's family to withdraw from the area where there would be thick fog.

Afterwards, Fang Beiming and Shao Yi marched around the center of the mass grave to set up a formation, and Gu Jiu followed them to watch.

In the eyes of ordinary people, Fang Beiming and the others are just walking around frantically, without any sense of mystery, but in Gu Jiu's eyes, they are in another world. Every step that Shao Yi took brought up gusts of wind, and this wind was not wind, but righteousness invisible to ordinary people.

The circle in the center was set up, and the three returned to the carriage.Fang Beiming took out the cinnabar ink fountain, flicked one cinnabar line after another on the inner wall of the carriage, and finally took out a thumb-sized bell and hung it on the door.

This bell is very strange, the carriage moves back and forth, but the bell has a bell, but it shakes but doesn't ring.

Fang Beiming taught his little apprentice by the way: "This is a Yin bell, and it will only ring when encountering Yin Qi."

Gu Jiu understood, it is equivalent to a monitor.

After all this was done, when Shen Shi arrived, the three of them were not idle. Fang Beiming explained to Gu Jiu and Shao Yi the steps and formations they had just set up.Shao Yi has been with Fang Beiming for ten years, and it was only these two years that Fang Beiming began to let him try something alone. In the past, like Gu Jiu, he could only watch and help.

This place is a battlefield, and the ghosts appearing in the thick fog should be soldiers who died here in the battle, but their souls stayed behind.

Although Master Pei Yu promised Gu Jiu to help him find his grandma in the underworld, Gu Jiu was also curious at the beginning why some people would go directly to the underworld after death and some would stay in the human world.After studying with Shao Yi for a few days, he knew that a person was born with a corresponding ghost gate, and after death, as long as he buried himself in the ground, his ghost gate would open immediately.

After people die, they are generally in a daze, and ghosts with little obsession with the world usually follow the guidance and enter the gate of ghosts and return to the underworld.But some obsessions are too deep, and they will choose to stay in the world when they are sane after death.The ghost gate will close after the opening time. If the ghost wants to enter the underworld again, he can only find a ghost road to the ghost city Fengdu, pass through the ghost gate and enter the underworld.Or if you are rescued by someone from the Taoist sect, please ask the ghost to open the gate of ghosts again.

Gu Jiu's mother, Zhou Shanshan, cared too much for her son and stayed with him to take care of him after death. His grandma's obsession was not as strong as Zhou Shanshan's, so she directly chose to be included in the underworld, waiting for the sins of her life to be cleared and re-enter the cycle of reincarnation.

Of course, there are still many ghosts. Their chance to enter the ghost gate has been taken away. For example, the three little ghosts that Gu Jiu met earlier helped the old Taoist priest do evil. Entering the earth, there are ghost gates but they are not allowed to enter. If the people who enslave them do not give them relief, then they will not even have the chance to re-enter the cycle of reincarnation.

There are tens of thousands of soldiers who died in mass graves, and there are always some people who choose to stay in the world because of some kind of obsession.

Fang Beiming said: "More than half of the soldiers left on the battlefield should be very bloodthirsty and warlike."

"Why?" Gu Jiu asked without understanding.

Fang Beiming said: "Most ghosts can come and go freely, as long as they are conscious and remember the origin of their obsession, they will basically not stop at the place where they died. For example, some soldiers, after they die, miss their family members. Old mothers, wives and children will go home according to the way they remember during their lifetime. Some of those who stayed on the battlefield had clear obsessions when they just died and did not choose to enter the ghost gate. He was muddled again. He has become a fool, he doesn't know how to do evil, he won't be eaten by other ghosts, and he has no good-hearted people to save him, let alone an old ghost who hasn't come out to relax and lead the way to Fengdu, so he can only wander like this until his soul dissipates."

Gu Jiu sighed. He thought it was over after death, but he didn't expect that being a ghost would have a different fate.If you stay in the world for too long, the final fate may not be very good for ghosts.It is either eaten or dissipated. If you eat other ghosts or people and create bad karma, even if you go to hell, you will end up serving a hundred years in prison, or a thousand years before reentering the animal realm. The chances of reincarnation are pitifully rare.

Fang Beiming continued: "Exclude these two kinds of ghosts, and there are ghosts who want to defend the country and defend the country. The rest are ambitious ghosts who really want to invade the other country."

Gu Jiu thought silently, it seems that some people like to occupy territory when they are alive, and they still do it after becoming a ghost. Not only people, but where there are ghosts, there are also rivers and lakes.

They talked miscellaneously, and seeing that the time of You was approaching, they stopped talking, and the three of them waited quietly.

After waiting for about half an hour, Gu Jiu was sitting at the door of the carriage, hanging beside him, and the Yin bell that he had touched with his fingers just now, which would not ring at all, suddenly turned automatically with no wind, and there was a crisp "ding bell".

"Meow?" The little brother who came with him also called out vigilantly.

Gu Jiu regained his energy and stood up.

In the field of vision, other places other than the carriage, wisps of black yin energy emerged from the ground, soaring to the mid-air and staying still. As more and more yin energy emerged, what was visible to the human eye began to fog up, mass burials The weather in Gang suddenly became dark, and the wind blew.

The dense fog rose very quickly, and slowly, there were more moving black shadows in the dense fog, and there were faint roars, and the sound of knives and halberds intersecting.

Fang Beiming shook off the black whip and swept a nearby ghost over.

Gu Jiu looked over and saw that this soldier ghost was wearing armor, with a sword stuck in his chest, and one palm was broken, but he didn't feel any pain, being engulfed by the black whip and devouring his body's yin energy, it wasn't miserable. Shouting, only looking ahead with a ferocious face, wanting to continue fighting with the enemy.

Shao Yi suddenly said: "This is not a ghost."

Gu Jiu: "Not a ghost?"

Shao Yi said: "This is resentment, this ghost is transformed from resentment, not the soul itself."

Shao Yi stretched out his hand, a little blood-red air condensed from his fingertips, touched the ghost, and the ghost suddenly dissipated.

Fang Beiming shook off the black whip, and brought another ghost over, only to find that it was also caused by resentment.Fang Beiming frowned: "The soldier ghosts left here and the lonely souls without a master who came with their bodies are gone. None of the ghosts in this place are real."

Gu Jiu hesitated: "Then the white horse was also transformed by resentment?"

Fang Beiming said: "It should be."

"Master, look quickly." Shao Yi pointed to the center of the mass grave, "The resentment has disappeared."

Gu Jiu looked up, and saw a layer of black mist thicker than Yin Qi slowly rising into the air, and then suddenly disappeared.

Fang Beiming turned pale with shock: "Blood Fiend Yinlong Formation!"

Gu Jiu hadn't seen the name of this formation in the book of formations he had read recently, but this was not the time to ask. Seeing his master's pale face, he knew that this formation was very powerful and not a good one.

Fang Beiming solemnly ordered Shao Yi and Gu Jiu to stay in the carriage, jumped out of the carriage by himself, and ran towards the center.

Gu Jiu was very worried, "Can I let Master go alone?"

Shao Yi said with a blank expression: "We may not be able to help if we go, but will hinder Master."

Gu Jiu could only stand anxiously on the carriage and waited. After about 5 minutes, the soldiers and ghosts who had turned away their resentment and ignored them suddenly came to attack the two of them in unison.

Fortunately, Fang Beiming had the foresight to flick the cinnabar thread on the carriage, and these ghosts were thrown out as soon as they approached. Gu Jiu and Shao Yi each had a mahogany sword, back to back, and each wiped out the soldier ghosts around them.

Gu Jiu stabbed a ghost with a sword, and the soul body transformed by the opponent's resentment dissipated. Gu Jiu noticed that the few strands of resentment that had not dissipated gathered together with the other strands of resentment that floated over. The group of grievances actually got bigger.

"Brother, what's going on?" Gu Jiu told Shao Yi what he had found.

Shao Yi said: "Resentment is different from Yin Qi. If there is too much Yin Qi, we will only feel cold and uncomfortable. Resentment is different. Resentment itself carries a strong idea, which will distort people's mind. They can devour and fuse each other. Most importantly, they can influence each other, create something out of nothing, and strengthen themselves.”

In the hasty explanation, Gu Jiu understood that the combination of resentment and resentment is the effect of one plus one greater than two.

Shao Yi knocked out a ghost with a single sword, chased after him fiercely and scattered a few wisps of resentment that wanted to escape, and then said again: "Someone is collecting resentment, turning into a Yin dragon."
