Who says the deity is not Bai Ze
Chapter 8
Haunted?How can there be ghosts in such a beautiful shrine?
Fu Li felt that as soon as this ghostly aura came out, the whole thing became complicated and confusing.
So he thought for a moment and asked Ji Guang: "Is the Ghost Festival tomorrow?"
Ji Guang said: "Yes, tomorrow is the most tiring day of the year. Because not only the ghosts from the underworld will come out, but even those wild ghosts will gather to drink and play cards, so it is very easy for ghosts to get lost and get into fights. We In addition to paying attention to some ghosts stealing tributes and bullying the weak, we must also pay special attention to some ghosts with criminal records, and we must not let them go to the people's homes to make trouble!"
Hearing this, Fu Li nodded, thinking: If that's the case, then he will deal with the Ghost Festival first.After everything is over, let's see what kind of tricks this temple of Ci'an is playing.
-
The next day, July [-]th, is the Hungry Ghost Festival.
According to legend, this day is the birthday of the Earth Official, one of the "Three Officials", and the gates of the underworld will be open for a whole July, and all lonely souls without owners will come out within this month to receive offerings from the Yang Realm.Therefore, every July, various Taoist temples will hold the sacrificial ceremony of Purdue almsgiving, and ordinary people mostly cook a table of dishes and burn some yellow paper to worship their ancestors.
However, since both the yang and the underworld are facing severe pressure from population expansion, the underworld has no choice but to introduce a new regulation—want to reincarnate?First lottery!
As a result, a large number of African ghosts who could not get their numbers had to stay in the underworld, where they traded real estate and opened up ghost markets.Over time, some ghosts with big business are unwilling to reincarnate.
In this way, there will be more ghosts to return to.It is difficult for the Yang Realm to be overloaded with so many ghosts for a whole month, so gradually, the gate of hell is only open on July [-]th, and the original annual leave in January has been reduced to one day.
But even for one day, Fu Li was still a little bit battered.
No, before noon, he ran back and forth several times from the east end to the west end of the township. If his footprints could be traced on the map, then the entire Ci'an Township might be woven into a spider web by him.
Often there are a few lonely souls on this side fighting because of a little unowned sacrifice, and there are a few spirits on the other side who are drunk and fighting.There is no scruple about these things in Beijing, not to mention the gloomy night, no wonder there are many fewer pedestrians on the street.
At this time, Jiguang caught another ghost who sneaked into other people's ancestral halls to steal sacrifices, and ran to Fuli excitedly: "Fuli is indeed an auspicious beast! With you here, this year's Ghost Festival is much easier than in previous years." .”
Fu Li choked unintentionally, looked at Ji Guang's sweaty head, and said, "Really, what was it like in previous years?"
"There are a lot of ghosts in previous years! Whether they came out of the underworld or stayed in the human world, they all treat the ghost festival as if they were New Year's Eve! This year I really feel that there are a lot less ghosts, especially those habitual offenders who like to steal sacrifices , and some other familiar faces, I didn’t see them.” Ji Guang scratched his head, a little puzzled.
Fu Li originally thought that there were too many ghosts, but he didn't expect that there were more ghosts in previous years. Thinking of the scene of a group of drunks dancing on candles at the grave just now, he couldn't help but feel a chill, and said, "Do you need to count them?"
Ji Guang blinked, and suddenly realized: "Yes, how could I forget! I have a list."
As he said that, he hurriedly took out a "Report on the Flow of Ghosts from the Underworld to the Sunworld on the Mid-Autumn Festival", and explained: "We used to just manage the order of the Yangworld. Generally, the ghosts from the underworld will go back by themselves. No ghost is willing to go back." Staying here as lonely ghosts, they have to go back and fight to buy a house in the third ring of Hades!"
However, Ji Guang was dumbfounded when he saw the report, and said, "Wow... why are these ghosts getting more and more every year, and they don't go to reincarnation? With so many names, you have to go back and compare them one by one?"
Fu Li glanced at the situation, and what caught his eyes was a dense array of names.Ashamed to say, because he is not very good at learning, he can only recognize simple characters such as Wang, Wu, Liu, etc., so he asked: "Are these? About how much?"
Jiguang looked at the footer and said, "Three thousand five hundred and seventy six! I remember that this township used to be deserted, and it was gradually inhabited after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, but it has been nearly 570 years since the Manchu Qing Dynasty! It takes a lot of work.”
In fact, Fu Li doesn't have much idea of numbers. In his opinion, three thousand Chaos Demon Gods was enough.But now there are more than 3000 ghosts in a small town, so that's really too many!I'm afraid that if I walk a few steps, I will bump into a ghost.
So Fu Li, who was always afraid of trouble, really didn't want to bother to find it. He stretched out his long and slender hand of jade white to signal Ji Guang to retreat, and a seal formed in his hand, and a soft murmur overflowed from his mouth:
"Brighten the road of the Three Realms, illuminate the Beiyou Palace, I obey the decree of heaven and earth, and break through the Nine Nether Gates, I obey the order of the Heavenly Lord, and break open the Fengdu Gate, as urgently as the Heavenly Lord pardons the law!"
The moment the voice fell, a gust of wind blew up on the flat ground!
It was clearly the hottest August, but this gust of wind seemed to be blowing up from an extremely shady place, and it hit the face with bursts of bone-chilling coldness.As soon as it was touched, it was like being crushed by countless fine ice particles from head to toe, cooling from the blood to the bone marrow.
After a while, the wind stopped and the leaves stopped, as if nothing had happened.
However, if there were ordinary people with opened yin and yang eyes present at this time, they would definitely be shocked to the point of tearing their livers apart.I saw that the originally empty field was densely packed with "people"!
These "people" can't see the facial features, even the gender is not clear, like a human body forcibly gathered by a cloud of gray smoke.There are only two big empty holes at the eyes, which are staring at Fu Li neatly and straightly.
When the Nine Nethernesses are broken, all the spirits are opened, it's for summoning souls!
Ji Guang rubbed the goosebumps on the side, couldn't help opening his mouth into an "O" shape, and thought: Fu Li is really a unique divine beast, even this kind of soul-calling formula that consumes a lot of spiritual power can do it. It's so easy to use, it's amazing!
But some people often look confident on the surface, but in fact they are panicked inside.
Speaking of which, Fu Li was indeed a bit confused when he read out the summoning formula.
Although he had the ability to reach heaven and earth in the past, he had no chance to contact soul calling.If the demon gods and monsters of chaos die, they will die completely, and their soul power will return to the heaven and earth, and they will die completely.
He learned this method of summoning souls from a collection of strange stories that had been torn out in the toilet a few days ago when he was free. Who knows if it is reliable or not?
Ji Guang exclaimed: "Fu Li, you are so amazing! Now we are much more relaxed!"
Fu Li is a shameless person, even though he is quite proud in his heart, he still humbly said: "No matter where it is, it's just average."
Just when Jiguang wanted to blow a few rainbow farts, the ghosts started yelling——
"What are you recruiting us for?"
"That's right... I've only eaten half of my candle!"
"What about me? I finally got a few pieces of roast chicken from the donator's house! I was recruited before I had time to eat it..."
"I'm even worse! I just started making out with my daughter-in-law who is a lonely ghost, and it turned out... oh, it's miserable!"
Fu Li stared at the group of noisy ghosts expressionlessly, and said coldly: "It's natural to invite you to come. Next, roll your name, and those who are called will leave on their own."
As soon as his voice came out, an invisible force of suppression spread across the field.The ghosts were shocked by this momentum, and they all fell silent, daring not to speak out again.
So Ji Guang hurriedly took out the list, cleared his throat and began to count one by one:
"Hesheli Balzan!"
"Wei Chen is here."
"Wang Jianguo!"
"Report sir, to—"
"Li Goudan!"
"I'm here I'm here."
"..."
Fu Li stared at one ghost after another, staring at these ghosts until they were shaking like chaff, and after a while, he asked casually: "The familiar faces you mentioned...how did you recognize them?"
Ji Guang took it for granted: "Isn't this very simple? Look, Fu Li, this ghost has a square face, buttocks are more upturned, and that ghost has a round face and bigger chest. Familiar faces are easier to remember. I remember a man named Zhang Sanpao My ghost likes to steal sacrifices the most, and once caused public outrage and got her legs broken, so she walks with one deep foot and one shallow foot. Based on these characteristics, it is easy to remember.”
"……"oh.Apparently he was blind.
Fu Li blinked, and quite unreasonably stepped forward to mention the prickly butt, and asked, "Tell me, why are your butt so puffy."
"???" The ghost's two empty eye sockets contracted violently, and he hesitated in a trembling voice: "Maybe... because I was a fitness instructor before I was alive?"
Before Fu Li turned to question another ghost, the ghost said: "I, I, I, I am not big breasts! I am fat, I am fat, hehehe..."
Fu Li tried to use Ji Guang's method to distinguish a few ghosts, but he still couldn't figure it out. He said angrily, "Can't you dye it like him? Who can recognize it if it's all gray."
All the ghosts looked at each other, no one dared to refute Fu Li's words, but each other's eyes revealed a meaning: Even if we dyed our whole body into the color of Marysu Rainbow Dream Princess, once we come to the Yang Realm, in order not to lose our souls, the ghosts will still appear. Automatic gathering, turning us into gray and black!
About two quarters of an hour later, the dry-mouthed Ji Guang finally checked the list, and said solemnly: "It's really missing! There are almost two hundred missing... Are all the ghosts here?"
Fu Li nodded resolutely, he knew very well that once the technique he performed with his own hands was successful, nothing would go wrong, if he failed to summon the soul, there would only be two reasons.
One, someone summoned the soul at the same time as him, and was stronger than him, so the soul did not come to his side.But obviously, Fu Li said inflatedly: Unless Hong Jun is alive and Luo Hu cheats the corpse, otherwise this situation is impossible.
The second is—these souls didn't want to come, but were imprisoned by something, or even simply disappeared.
He pondered for a moment, and asked the lonely soul in Yangjian who was not named: "You have been here for so long, you are familiar with each other, did you find anyone missing?"
Nearly a hundred lonely ghosts looked left and right, and after a while there was a commotion:
"My lord! Zhang Sanpao is gone!"
"Wu Jinhua isn't there either!"
"..."
Ji Guang hurriedly memorized these names, and said strangely after he finished: "Most of the ghosts who disappeared were the thorns who liked to take advantage of the fire in the past. Did they run away in a group?"
Fu Li lowered his eyes and remained silent, he really couldn't figure out who would detain a group of ghosts in their spare time.
Ghosts are useless to most of the spiritual practice, their extreme yin cannot be transformed into medicine, and their weak strength is not suitable for refining magic tools.Apart from eating, Fu Li couldn't think of any other uses for ghosts.But he glanced at these dusty ghosts, and thought: If they look like this, they definitely won't taste good.
If you don't eat it or use it for other purposes, then if you keep a bunch of ghosts in one place, wouldn't you be full of ghosts?
Speaking of ghost energy...Suddenly, Fu Liwei opened his eyes wide, as if a certain string in his brain was plucked violently.
Most of the places with ghost aura should be cemeteries, mass graves, private houses, and places of unjust death, but that day, a ray of ghost aura that hid deeply appeared in the place where it should not appear, it was the Ci'an Temple!
After breaking through the joints, Fu Li thought in his heart: Sure enough, people in the world don't deceive me, and this person who went around going around has returned to Ci'an Temple.
Just when he was about to go to Ci'an Temple to find out what happened, a series of sudden bells rang beside him.
Ji Guang turned on the speakerphone, and a voice full of panic came out in a hurry:
"Xiaoji! Something happened to Juanzi and Xiaobao! I have to go to the hospital now. If you come back, go look for the keys under the haystack at the door, and I won't entertain you!"
"Oh oh oh—it's okay Uncle Liu, the bodies of Sister Juan and the baby are important, you go quickly, then I will..."
Before Ji Guang could say anything, he hung up the phone first, when Fu Li suddenly came up to him and asked, "Uncle Liu, what are their symptoms?"
Uncle Liu had no place to vomit his bitterness. As soon as Fu Li asked, he began to say in a hurry: "I, I haven't seen this... It's just that Dagen called me to say that Juanzi and Xiaobao had suddenly disappeared. The consciousness is in a coma! I can’t wake up even if I scream, and the vital signs are all there, but I just can’t wake up! I also heard that not only Juanzi and others, but people in several wards of the hospital have this symptom! Oh, you said, Could it be that there is something wrong with the hospital facilities? This black heart hospital is real, I'm going to sue them..."
"Okay, I see." After finishing speaking, Fu Li followed Ji Guang's example and hung up the phone.
Ji Guang was curious: "Fu Li, what do you know?"
Fu Li avoided talking about it, and asked instead: "How many souls do people have?"
"Three souls and seven souls."
"Which three souls, which seven souls?"
"There are three souls, one is the soul of heaven, the other is the soul of earth, and the third is the soul of life. There are seven souls, one is heavenly, the second is spiritual, the third is qi, the fourth is strength, and the fifth... oh my Got it! So Sister Juan and Xiaobao are soul-lost!"
Fu Li Shiran said: "Not too stupid."
Fu said to himself again: So this person has three souls and seven souls, why didn't he make it clear in that strange novel?It almost made him lose face, thanks to his wit.
"According to the symptoms Liu Bo just said, those people at least lost the two souls of heaven and earth, leaving only the soul of life that maintains the vitality." Fu Liyan came to his conclusion.
After hearing this, Ji Guang said angrily: "Who is so vicious? Uncle Liu's family is very good. If I know who did it, I will definitely..."
"Wait, look."
Ji Guang paused for a while, followed Fu Li's fingers and looked up, only to see in astonishment—a ghostly aura suddenly appeared from the southeast corner!
The dark ghostly aura went from shallow to deep, and gradually became a huge head with nothing in the eyes, mouth and nose, staring at the world with its empty eyes.The big mouth is also like an abyss hell, as if it wants to swallow all the creatures here.
And the position of the head happened to be in the direction of Mount Ci'an.
Ji Guang said in amazement: "Why is there such a big cloud of ghosts over there?! Let's go and have a look?"
Fu Li paused, and said: "I'll go over and have a look, you go to the hospital where Uncle Liu is, and if there is any accident, come to Ci'an to see me."
After discussing with Jiguang, Fuli and Jiguang immediately rushed to Ci'an Temple.
As the Taoist temple with the most incense in the area, Ci'an Temple did not hold alms offering and sacrifice ceremony on the Ghost Festival, and the mountain gate was deserted, except for two sweeping boys.
Fu Li stepped forward: "Isn't the Taoist temple holding any activities today?"
The little boy said: "The Lord of the Temple said that today we only open the altar to preach to those who are predestined. The believers have been selected a few days ago. You should go back."
Fu Li blinked, said yes, turned around and went around to the side of the cliff facing the Taoist world, and went up with restraint.
In order to see the whole picture of the Taoist temple, he purposely floated higher. In this way, he accidentally discovered something that he had overlooked at the beginning—this Ci'an Temple is facing north from south!
It's no wonder that Fu Li overlooked that the general houses are all facing south, and places of practice like Taoist temples that need more yang energy cannot escape this inherent law.
But this Temple of Ci'an is good, it goes in the opposite direction, not only facing south and north, but even the two sides of the Taoist temple are like being cut twice, there are only steep cliffs.The southernmost abode is backed by a huge rock, which blocks the sunlight that should be reflected in the Taoist temple, making the entire temple look particularly gloomy and cold.The mountain gate is the only place where the breath flows. Once the mountain gate is closed, no anger or death can escape.
And that huge ghostly head just happened to hang over the entire Taoist temple, and the monastery site that should have been shining brightly is now more terrifying than a mass grave.
If Fu Li understands Feng Shui, he can understand that this is "Boundary Wind Stores Qi", but what is bounded is the Yin Wind, and what is hidden is Ghost Qi!
It's a pity that Fu Li's understanding of the modern Fengshui Bureau of Xiujie is still limited to novels.But fortunately, this did not prevent him from understanding the whole pattern.
Just like when doing English listening comprehension, what the scumbag hears is a string of gibberish characters, what the master learner hears is a question that is automatically translated into Chinese, and what the god of learning hears is - choose C!
Therefore, Fu Li, the god of learning, could see at a glance the location of the formation eye, which was the abode that he was not allowed to enter that day!
I saw strands of life escaping from the jingshe, the faint white light was like a pearl in the abyss, and it would be completely swallowed by the abyss at some point.
Fu Li thought in his heart: Since it is a formation, it must be broken.
So he held up his palm, and a mass of blazing white light grew bigger and bigger in his palm.Then, throw it violently!The white glow was instantly embedded in the huge ghostly head!
The head seemed to be irritated by this, and suddenly opened its huge mouth in the abyss, trying to swallow the tiny floating li, which was as small as an ant.But when the head was about to be culled to Fuli's face, it suddenly stopped.
Then it let out an extremely sharp roar, and the whole head began to twist uncomfortably. The ghostly aura that was originally tightly stitched split open countless holes, and white lights shot out from the gaps!
"hiss--"
The head made a sound like hot molten iron meeting ice, and then, a smell of burnt flesh entered Fuli's nose.
Fu Li couldn't help but cover his nose and take a look, the ghostly head that just bared its teeth and claws had already turned into a wisp of black smoke and completely dissipated in the world!
After breaking through the formation, the vitality in the Abode was suddenly extinguished.
When Fu Li first came into contact with the modern magic circle, he couldn't help but feel a little stunned. He said badly to himself, hurriedly flew to the door of the jingshe, and kicked open the closed door.
Inside the door was a large suicide scene.
I saw a group of ragged people inside, all with their heads down, kneeling motionless on the futons, as if they were dead, and on their right wrists was a sharp knife cut!
Fu Li approached slowly, squatted down to have a look.Sure enough, he found countless fine and strange lines on the floor, which were just filled with blood that flowed out.
"It's so vicious..." Fu Li murmured.
He felt that he was already ruthless enough, and he would definitely beat him up when he needed to, but he couldn't compare to the insidiousness behind this Ci'an Temple.Looking at the positions of these blood streaks, it is obviously another formation.Ci'an Guan was holding back for a while, what exactly do you want to do?
While Fu Li was thinking, Ji Guang suddenly rushed in and shouted: "Fu Li—it's not good! The vital signs of those people in the hospital suddenly weakened... What, what's going on here?"
Fu Li frowned lightly, raised his hand to press down to signal Ji Guang to stop his voice, pointed to the blood formation and asked, "Do you know what kind of formation this is?"
Ji Guang squatted down and looked back and forth, and said in amazement: "Isn't this a transformation formation? It's a very evil formation! It is said that blood is used as a guide, and then through the body of a living person to achieve the effect of concentrating souls and gathering evil spirits. It can transform the dead energy into anger. According to legend, this formation was created by a Taoist priest 700 years ago, with the purpose of resurrecting his younger brother. Could it be...does Ci'an Temple also want to use this method to resurrect someone?"
After being reminded by Ji Guang, Fu Li suddenly had a feeling of pushing away the clouds and mist.
metaplasia?Since the dead energy is transformed into vitality, there must be a place to accept the vitality.He remembered the direction of the flow of energy he saw in mid-air, and the energy neither overflowed nor hid in the small abode, so there was only one possibility—the thing was underground!
Fu Li said clearly: "I know."
Before Ji Guang came back to his senses, his big eyes were full of doubts: "Ah? What do you know?"
"We'll talk about it when the time comes. They're not dead yet, so you send them to the hospital first, and I'll go underground to have a look." As he spoke, Fu Li pressed the ground with his hands and exerted some strength.Just hearing a "bang", a huge gap opened in the ground, and a cold breath continued to emerge from the dark ground.
This palm can be said to have carried out Fu Li's straightforwardness, brainlessness, and violence.
"I'm going down." After Fu Li finished speaking, under Ji Guang's dumbfounded gaze, he jumped down towards the depths of the darkness.
-
The bottom of the mountain was pitch black, as if it had been isolated from the world for thousands of years, and the air was filled with a musty smell produced by years of coldness.
Fu Lituo raised the flame in his palm, and the bright Xuanyuan True Fire suddenly illuminated the underground space. .
He squinted his eyes, tilted his head to look at the three indistinguishable corridors in front of him, and muttered habitually: "Click here and there, and eat shit when you click on any Luohu."
Oh right.
In this way, Fu Li hastily and contentedly chose the corridor on the right.
He walked along the corridor all the way, releasing his consciousness to perceive the positions of those souls while walking, but accidentally found that the side walls of the corridor were covered with murals.
These murals are very well preserved, and the paint has almost no signs of peeling off.And there is only one protagonist in these murals, a man with gentle facial features. Sometimes he plays chess and paints in the courtyard, and sometimes he gallops on a tall horse, making people confused about his identity.
Fu Li didn't have any special artistic skills, and couldn't see the value of these murals, so when he saw the same mural again, he finally realized that he had been going around in circles.Angrily, he slammed his fist on the wall, and the oxidized paint couldn't resist the punch, and immediately fell down in a rustle.
But what I didn't expect was that, probably because of karma, if Fu Li punched it, it would try to hurt Fu Li.
I don't know what mechanism was touched by this punch, the soles of his feet suddenly emptied, and he fell straight down without noticing for a while!
Fu Li hurriedly stabilized his figure, so as not to fall headlong in an unsightly way, he thought: I didn't expect that there are so many twists and turns in the underground of Ci'an Temple, it's a bit interesting.If he wasn't in a hurry to find those living souls, he would definitely have fun with the person behind the scenes.
However, some people are probably born with good luck, and this is where the "wrong hit" comes from.The moment Fuli fell, he felt as if an invisible barrier passed through his body, and voices from all directions pierced into his ears:
"Hey! I have three, touch!"
"Ha, I touched [-], what a fool!"
"Damn! Zhang Sanpao, you're lying!"
"...Heh." The deity is circling on the top, and you guys are having fun on the bottom.
Fu Li sneered, a bulge protruded from the tip of his tongue, and said coldly: "Come here!"
As soon as the words fell, the black shadows gathered in a pile panicked for a moment, and then gathered in front of Fu Li to stand still, like little daughters-in-law, they looked cute.
Fu Li took a rough look and found that they were all dead souls. Thinking about the difference between life and death, he guessed that the living souls must be imprisoned elsewhere, so he asked, "Where are the living souls?"
"They're in the other ear!" cried the deceitful voice just now.
Fu Li pointed out the ghost, and said: "You take me there, the others stay here first and don't run around."
So the dead soul who called himself Zhang Sanpao took Fu Li out of the ear room, and pressed against the outer wall again.
"Kudden——" The stone that was pressed fell directly into the wall, and then, there was only a crackling sound of the mechanism turning, and when Fu Li pushed the door open again, the inside had changed completely!
Zhang Sanpao took the lead to enter the door, then stretched out his hand to guide him, and said respectfully: "It's inside, please."
After a while, seeing that Fu Li was unmoved, he raised his head and showed a flattering smile.But he seems to have forgotten what he looks like now. It would be fine if he was a human, but when the ghost smiled, his already empty mouth grinned to the end of his ears, the effect can be described as horrifying!
Fu Li stared intently at that terrifying face, and suddenly a pleasant chuckle escaped from his lips.
The moment the laughter fell, he caught off guard and grabbed Zhang Sanpao by the collar, and threw him against the wall!
After looking at the legs of 'Zhang Sanpao' for a while, Fu Li said firmly:
"You are not Zhang Sanpao, who are you?"
Fu Li felt that as soon as this ghostly aura came out, the whole thing became complicated and confusing.
So he thought for a moment and asked Ji Guang: "Is the Ghost Festival tomorrow?"
Ji Guang said: "Yes, tomorrow is the most tiring day of the year. Because not only the ghosts from the underworld will come out, but even those wild ghosts will gather to drink and play cards, so it is very easy for ghosts to get lost and get into fights. We In addition to paying attention to some ghosts stealing tributes and bullying the weak, we must also pay special attention to some ghosts with criminal records, and we must not let them go to the people's homes to make trouble!"
Hearing this, Fu Li nodded, thinking: If that's the case, then he will deal with the Ghost Festival first.After everything is over, let's see what kind of tricks this temple of Ci'an is playing.
-
The next day, July [-]th, is the Hungry Ghost Festival.
According to legend, this day is the birthday of the Earth Official, one of the "Three Officials", and the gates of the underworld will be open for a whole July, and all lonely souls without owners will come out within this month to receive offerings from the Yang Realm.Therefore, every July, various Taoist temples will hold the sacrificial ceremony of Purdue almsgiving, and ordinary people mostly cook a table of dishes and burn some yellow paper to worship their ancestors.
However, since both the yang and the underworld are facing severe pressure from population expansion, the underworld has no choice but to introduce a new regulation—want to reincarnate?First lottery!
As a result, a large number of African ghosts who could not get their numbers had to stay in the underworld, where they traded real estate and opened up ghost markets.Over time, some ghosts with big business are unwilling to reincarnate.
In this way, there will be more ghosts to return to.It is difficult for the Yang Realm to be overloaded with so many ghosts for a whole month, so gradually, the gate of hell is only open on July [-]th, and the original annual leave in January has been reduced to one day.
But even for one day, Fu Li was still a little bit battered.
No, before noon, he ran back and forth several times from the east end to the west end of the township. If his footprints could be traced on the map, then the entire Ci'an Township might be woven into a spider web by him.
Often there are a few lonely souls on this side fighting because of a little unowned sacrifice, and there are a few spirits on the other side who are drunk and fighting.There is no scruple about these things in Beijing, not to mention the gloomy night, no wonder there are many fewer pedestrians on the street.
At this time, Jiguang caught another ghost who sneaked into other people's ancestral halls to steal sacrifices, and ran to Fuli excitedly: "Fuli is indeed an auspicious beast! With you here, this year's Ghost Festival is much easier than in previous years." .”
Fu Li choked unintentionally, looked at Ji Guang's sweaty head, and said, "Really, what was it like in previous years?"
"There are a lot of ghosts in previous years! Whether they came out of the underworld or stayed in the human world, they all treat the ghost festival as if they were New Year's Eve! This year I really feel that there are a lot less ghosts, especially those habitual offenders who like to steal sacrifices , and some other familiar faces, I didn’t see them.” Ji Guang scratched his head, a little puzzled.
Fu Li originally thought that there were too many ghosts, but he didn't expect that there were more ghosts in previous years. Thinking of the scene of a group of drunks dancing on candles at the grave just now, he couldn't help but feel a chill, and said, "Do you need to count them?"
Ji Guang blinked, and suddenly realized: "Yes, how could I forget! I have a list."
As he said that, he hurriedly took out a "Report on the Flow of Ghosts from the Underworld to the Sunworld on the Mid-Autumn Festival", and explained: "We used to just manage the order of the Yangworld. Generally, the ghosts from the underworld will go back by themselves. No ghost is willing to go back." Staying here as lonely ghosts, they have to go back and fight to buy a house in the third ring of Hades!"
However, Ji Guang was dumbfounded when he saw the report, and said, "Wow... why are these ghosts getting more and more every year, and they don't go to reincarnation? With so many names, you have to go back and compare them one by one?"
Fu Li glanced at the situation, and what caught his eyes was a dense array of names.Ashamed to say, because he is not very good at learning, he can only recognize simple characters such as Wang, Wu, Liu, etc., so he asked: "Are these? About how much?"
Jiguang looked at the footer and said, "Three thousand five hundred and seventy six! I remember that this township used to be deserted, and it was gradually inhabited after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, but it has been nearly 570 years since the Manchu Qing Dynasty! It takes a lot of work.”
In fact, Fu Li doesn't have much idea of numbers. In his opinion, three thousand Chaos Demon Gods was enough.But now there are more than 3000 ghosts in a small town, so that's really too many!I'm afraid that if I walk a few steps, I will bump into a ghost.
So Fu Li, who was always afraid of trouble, really didn't want to bother to find it. He stretched out his long and slender hand of jade white to signal Ji Guang to retreat, and a seal formed in his hand, and a soft murmur overflowed from his mouth:
"Brighten the road of the Three Realms, illuminate the Beiyou Palace, I obey the decree of heaven and earth, and break through the Nine Nether Gates, I obey the order of the Heavenly Lord, and break open the Fengdu Gate, as urgently as the Heavenly Lord pardons the law!"
The moment the voice fell, a gust of wind blew up on the flat ground!
It was clearly the hottest August, but this gust of wind seemed to be blowing up from an extremely shady place, and it hit the face with bursts of bone-chilling coldness.As soon as it was touched, it was like being crushed by countless fine ice particles from head to toe, cooling from the blood to the bone marrow.
After a while, the wind stopped and the leaves stopped, as if nothing had happened.
However, if there were ordinary people with opened yin and yang eyes present at this time, they would definitely be shocked to the point of tearing their livers apart.I saw that the originally empty field was densely packed with "people"!
These "people" can't see the facial features, even the gender is not clear, like a human body forcibly gathered by a cloud of gray smoke.There are only two big empty holes at the eyes, which are staring at Fu Li neatly and straightly.
When the Nine Nethernesses are broken, all the spirits are opened, it's for summoning souls!
Ji Guang rubbed the goosebumps on the side, couldn't help opening his mouth into an "O" shape, and thought: Fu Li is really a unique divine beast, even this kind of soul-calling formula that consumes a lot of spiritual power can do it. It's so easy to use, it's amazing!
But some people often look confident on the surface, but in fact they are panicked inside.
Speaking of which, Fu Li was indeed a bit confused when he read out the summoning formula.
Although he had the ability to reach heaven and earth in the past, he had no chance to contact soul calling.If the demon gods and monsters of chaos die, they will die completely, and their soul power will return to the heaven and earth, and they will die completely.
He learned this method of summoning souls from a collection of strange stories that had been torn out in the toilet a few days ago when he was free. Who knows if it is reliable or not?
Ji Guang exclaimed: "Fu Li, you are so amazing! Now we are much more relaxed!"
Fu Li is a shameless person, even though he is quite proud in his heart, he still humbly said: "No matter where it is, it's just average."
Just when Jiguang wanted to blow a few rainbow farts, the ghosts started yelling——
"What are you recruiting us for?"
"That's right... I've only eaten half of my candle!"
"What about me? I finally got a few pieces of roast chicken from the donator's house! I was recruited before I had time to eat it..."
"I'm even worse! I just started making out with my daughter-in-law who is a lonely ghost, and it turned out... oh, it's miserable!"
Fu Li stared at the group of noisy ghosts expressionlessly, and said coldly: "It's natural to invite you to come. Next, roll your name, and those who are called will leave on their own."
As soon as his voice came out, an invisible force of suppression spread across the field.The ghosts were shocked by this momentum, and they all fell silent, daring not to speak out again.
So Ji Guang hurriedly took out the list, cleared his throat and began to count one by one:
"Hesheli Balzan!"
"Wei Chen is here."
"Wang Jianguo!"
"Report sir, to—"
"Li Goudan!"
"I'm here I'm here."
"..."
Fu Li stared at one ghost after another, staring at these ghosts until they were shaking like chaff, and after a while, he asked casually: "The familiar faces you mentioned...how did you recognize them?"
Ji Guang took it for granted: "Isn't this very simple? Look, Fu Li, this ghost has a square face, buttocks are more upturned, and that ghost has a round face and bigger chest. Familiar faces are easier to remember. I remember a man named Zhang Sanpao My ghost likes to steal sacrifices the most, and once caused public outrage and got her legs broken, so she walks with one deep foot and one shallow foot. Based on these characteristics, it is easy to remember.”
"……"oh.Apparently he was blind.
Fu Li blinked, and quite unreasonably stepped forward to mention the prickly butt, and asked, "Tell me, why are your butt so puffy."
"???" The ghost's two empty eye sockets contracted violently, and he hesitated in a trembling voice: "Maybe... because I was a fitness instructor before I was alive?"
Before Fu Li turned to question another ghost, the ghost said: "I, I, I, I am not big breasts! I am fat, I am fat, hehehe..."
Fu Li tried to use Ji Guang's method to distinguish a few ghosts, but he still couldn't figure it out. He said angrily, "Can't you dye it like him? Who can recognize it if it's all gray."
All the ghosts looked at each other, no one dared to refute Fu Li's words, but each other's eyes revealed a meaning: Even if we dyed our whole body into the color of Marysu Rainbow Dream Princess, once we come to the Yang Realm, in order not to lose our souls, the ghosts will still appear. Automatic gathering, turning us into gray and black!
About two quarters of an hour later, the dry-mouthed Ji Guang finally checked the list, and said solemnly: "It's really missing! There are almost two hundred missing... Are all the ghosts here?"
Fu Li nodded resolutely, he knew very well that once the technique he performed with his own hands was successful, nothing would go wrong, if he failed to summon the soul, there would only be two reasons.
One, someone summoned the soul at the same time as him, and was stronger than him, so the soul did not come to his side.But obviously, Fu Li said inflatedly: Unless Hong Jun is alive and Luo Hu cheats the corpse, otherwise this situation is impossible.
The second is—these souls didn't want to come, but were imprisoned by something, or even simply disappeared.
He pondered for a moment, and asked the lonely soul in Yangjian who was not named: "You have been here for so long, you are familiar with each other, did you find anyone missing?"
Nearly a hundred lonely ghosts looked left and right, and after a while there was a commotion:
"My lord! Zhang Sanpao is gone!"
"Wu Jinhua isn't there either!"
"..."
Ji Guang hurriedly memorized these names, and said strangely after he finished: "Most of the ghosts who disappeared were the thorns who liked to take advantage of the fire in the past. Did they run away in a group?"
Fu Li lowered his eyes and remained silent, he really couldn't figure out who would detain a group of ghosts in their spare time.
Ghosts are useless to most of the spiritual practice, their extreme yin cannot be transformed into medicine, and their weak strength is not suitable for refining magic tools.Apart from eating, Fu Li couldn't think of any other uses for ghosts.But he glanced at these dusty ghosts, and thought: If they look like this, they definitely won't taste good.
If you don't eat it or use it for other purposes, then if you keep a bunch of ghosts in one place, wouldn't you be full of ghosts?
Speaking of ghost energy...Suddenly, Fu Liwei opened his eyes wide, as if a certain string in his brain was plucked violently.
Most of the places with ghost aura should be cemeteries, mass graves, private houses, and places of unjust death, but that day, a ray of ghost aura that hid deeply appeared in the place where it should not appear, it was the Ci'an Temple!
After breaking through the joints, Fu Li thought in his heart: Sure enough, people in the world don't deceive me, and this person who went around going around has returned to Ci'an Temple.
Just when he was about to go to Ci'an Temple to find out what happened, a series of sudden bells rang beside him.
Ji Guang turned on the speakerphone, and a voice full of panic came out in a hurry:
"Xiaoji! Something happened to Juanzi and Xiaobao! I have to go to the hospital now. If you come back, go look for the keys under the haystack at the door, and I won't entertain you!"
"Oh oh oh—it's okay Uncle Liu, the bodies of Sister Juan and the baby are important, you go quickly, then I will..."
Before Ji Guang could say anything, he hung up the phone first, when Fu Li suddenly came up to him and asked, "Uncle Liu, what are their symptoms?"
Uncle Liu had no place to vomit his bitterness. As soon as Fu Li asked, he began to say in a hurry: "I, I haven't seen this... It's just that Dagen called me to say that Juanzi and Xiaobao had suddenly disappeared. The consciousness is in a coma! I can’t wake up even if I scream, and the vital signs are all there, but I just can’t wake up! I also heard that not only Juanzi and others, but people in several wards of the hospital have this symptom! Oh, you said, Could it be that there is something wrong with the hospital facilities? This black heart hospital is real, I'm going to sue them..."
"Okay, I see." After finishing speaking, Fu Li followed Ji Guang's example and hung up the phone.
Ji Guang was curious: "Fu Li, what do you know?"
Fu Li avoided talking about it, and asked instead: "How many souls do people have?"
"Three souls and seven souls."
"Which three souls, which seven souls?"
"There are three souls, one is the soul of heaven, the other is the soul of earth, and the third is the soul of life. There are seven souls, one is heavenly, the second is spiritual, the third is qi, the fourth is strength, and the fifth... oh my Got it! So Sister Juan and Xiaobao are soul-lost!"
Fu Li Shiran said: "Not too stupid."
Fu said to himself again: So this person has three souls and seven souls, why didn't he make it clear in that strange novel?It almost made him lose face, thanks to his wit.
"According to the symptoms Liu Bo just said, those people at least lost the two souls of heaven and earth, leaving only the soul of life that maintains the vitality." Fu Liyan came to his conclusion.
After hearing this, Ji Guang said angrily: "Who is so vicious? Uncle Liu's family is very good. If I know who did it, I will definitely..."
"Wait, look."
Ji Guang paused for a while, followed Fu Li's fingers and looked up, only to see in astonishment—a ghostly aura suddenly appeared from the southeast corner!
The dark ghostly aura went from shallow to deep, and gradually became a huge head with nothing in the eyes, mouth and nose, staring at the world with its empty eyes.The big mouth is also like an abyss hell, as if it wants to swallow all the creatures here.
And the position of the head happened to be in the direction of Mount Ci'an.
Ji Guang said in amazement: "Why is there such a big cloud of ghosts over there?! Let's go and have a look?"
Fu Li paused, and said: "I'll go over and have a look, you go to the hospital where Uncle Liu is, and if there is any accident, come to Ci'an to see me."
After discussing with Jiguang, Fuli and Jiguang immediately rushed to Ci'an Temple.
As the Taoist temple with the most incense in the area, Ci'an Temple did not hold alms offering and sacrifice ceremony on the Ghost Festival, and the mountain gate was deserted, except for two sweeping boys.
Fu Li stepped forward: "Isn't the Taoist temple holding any activities today?"
The little boy said: "The Lord of the Temple said that today we only open the altar to preach to those who are predestined. The believers have been selected a few days ago. You should go back."
Fu Li blinked, said yes, turned around and went around to the side of the cliff facing the Taoist world, and went up with restraint.
In order to see the whole picture of the Taoist temple, he purposely floated higher. In this way, he accidentally discovered something that he had overlooked at the beginning—this Ci'an Temple is facing north from south!
It's no wonder that Fu Li overlooked that the general houses are all facing south, and places of practice like Taoist temples that need more yang energy cannot escape this inherent law.
But this Temple of Ci'an is good, it goes in the opposite direction, not only facing south and north, but even the two sides of the Taoist temple are like being cut twice, there are only steep cliffs.The southernmost abode is backed by a huge rock, which blocks the sunlight that should be reflected in the Taoist temple, making the entire temple look particularly gloomy and cold.The mountain gate is the only place where the breath flows. Once the mountain gate is closed, no anger or death can escape.
And that huge ghostly head just happened to hang over the entire Taoist temple, and the monastery site that should have been shining brightly is now more terrifying than a mass grave.
If Fu Li understands Feng Shui, he can understand that this is "Boundary Wind Stores Qi", but what is bounded is the Yin Wind, and what is hidden is Ghost Qi!
It's a pity that Fu Li's understanding of the modern Fengshui Bureau of Xiujie is still limited to novels.But fortunately, this did not prevent him from understanding the whole pattern.
Just like when doing English listening comprehension, what the scumbag hears is a string of gibberish characters, what the master learner hears is a question that is automatically translated into Chinese, and what the god of learning hears is - choose C!
Therefore, Fu Li, the god of learning, could see at a glance the location of the formation eye, which was the abode that he was not allowed to enter that day!
I saw strands of life escaping from the jingshe, the faint white light was like a pearl in the abyss, and it would be completely swallowed by the abyss at some point.
Fu Li thought in his heart: Since it is a formation, it must be broken.
So he held up his palm, and a mass of blazing white light grew bigger and bigger in his palm.Then, throw it violently!The white glow was instantly embedded in the huge ghostly head!
The head seemed to be irritated by this, and suddenly opened its huge mouth in the abyss, trying to swallow the tiny floating li, which was as small as an ant.But when the head was about to be culled to Fuli's face, it suddenly stopped.
Then it let out an extremely sharp roar, and the whole head began to twist uncomfortably. The ghostly aura that was originally tightly stitched split open countless holes, and white lights shot out from the gaps!
"hiss--"
The head made a sound like hot molten iron meeting ice, and then, a smell of burnt flesh entered Fuli's nose.
Fu Li couldn't help but cover his nose and take a look, the ghostly head that just bared its teeth and claws had already turned into a wisp of black smoke and completely dissipated in the world!
After breaking through the formation, the vitality in the Abode was suddenly extinguished.
When Fu Li first came into contact with the modern magic circle, he couldn't help but feel a little stunned. He said badly to himself, hurriedly flew to the door of the jingshe, and kicked open the closed door.
Inside the door was a large suicide scene.
I saw a group of ragged people inside, all with their heads down, kneeling motionless on the futons, as if they were dead, and on their right wrists was a sharp knife cut!
Fu Li approached slowly, squatted down to have a look.Sure enough, he found countless fine and strange lines on the floor, which were just filled with blood that flowed out.
"It's so vicious..." Fu Li murmured.
He felt that he was already ruthless enough, and he would definitely beat him up when he needed to, but he couldn't compare to the insidiousness behind this Ci'an Temple.Looking at the positions of these blood streaks, it is obviously another formation.Ci'an Guan was holding back for a while, what exactly do you want to do?
While Fu Li was thinking, Ji Guang suddenly rushed in and shouted: "Fu Li—it's not good! The vital signs of those people in the hospital suddenly weakened... What, what's going on here?"
Fu Li frowned lightly, raised his hand to press down to signal Ji Guang to stop his voice, pointed to the blood formation and asked, "Do you know what kind of formation this is?"
Ji Guang squatted down and looked back and forth, and said in amazement: "Isn't this a transformation formation? It's a very evil formation! It is said that blood is used as a guide, and then through the body of a living person to achieve the effect of concentrating souls and gathering evil spirits. It can transform the dead energy into anger. According to legend, this formation was created by a Taoist priest 700 years ago, with the purpose of resurrecting his younger brother. Could it be...does Ci'an Temple also want to use this method to resurrect someone?"
After being reminded by Ji Guang, Fu Li suddenly had a feeling of pushing away the clouds and mist.
metaplasia?Since the dead energy is transformed into vitality, there must be a place to accept the vitality.He remembered the direction of the flow of energy he saw in mid-air, and the energy neither overflowed nor hid in the small abode, so there was only one possibility—the thing was underground!
Fu Li said clearly: "I know."
Before Ji Guang came back to his senses, his big eyes were full of doubts: "Ah? What do you know?"
"We'll talk about it when the time comes. They're not dead yet, so you send them to the hospital first, and I'll go underground to have a look." As he spoke, Fu Li pressed the ground with his hands and exerted some strength.Just hearing a "bang", a huge gap opened in the ground, and a cold breath continued to emerge from the dark ground.
This palm can be said to have carried out Fu Li's straightforwardness, brainlessness, and violence.
"I'm going down." After Fu Li finished speaking, under Ji Guang's dumbfounded gaze, he jumped down towards the depths of the darkness.
-
The bottom of the mountain was pitch black, as if it had been isolated from the world for thousands of years, and the air was filled with a musty smell produced by years of coldness.
Fu Lituo raised the flame in his palm, and the bright Xuanyuan True Fire suddenly illuminated the underground space. .
He squinted his eyes, tilted his head to look at the three indistinguishable corridors in front of him, and muttered habitually: "Click here and there, and eat shit when you click on any Luohu."
Oh right.
In this way, Fu Li hastily and contentedly chose the corridor on the right.
He walked along the corridor all the way, releasing his consciousness to perceive the positions of those souls while walking, but accidentally found that the side walls of the corridor were covered with murals.
These murals are very well preserved, and the paint has almost no signs of peeling off.And there is only one protagonist in these murals, a man with gentle facial features. Sometimes he plays chess and paints in the courtyard, and sometimes he gallops on a tall horse, making people confused about his identity.
Fu Li didn't have any special artistic skills, and couldn't see the value of these murals, so when he saw the same mural again, he finally realized that he had been going around in circles.Angrily, he slammed his fist on the wall, and the oxidized paint couldn't resist the punch, and immediately fell down in a rustle.
But what I didn't expect was that, probably because of karma, if Fu Li punched it, it would try to hurt Fu Li.
I don't know what mechanism was touched by this punch, the soles of his feet suddenly emptied, and he fell straight down without noticing for a while!
Fu Li hurriedly stabilized his figure, so as not to fall headlong in an unsightly way, he thought: I didn't expect that there are so many twists and turns in the underground of Ci'an Temple, it's a bit interesting.If he wasn't in a hurry to find those living souls, he would definitely have fun with the person behind the scenes.
However, some people are probably born with good luck, and this is where the "wrong hit" comes from.The moment Fuli fell, he felt as if an invisible barrier passed through his body, and voices from all directions pierced into his ears:
"Hey! I have three, touch!"
"Ha, I touched [-], what a fool!"
"Damn! Zhang Sanpao, you're lying!"
"...Heh." The deity is circling on the top, and you guys are having fun on the bottom.
Fu Li sneered, a bulge protruded from the tip of his tongue, and said coldly: "Come here!"
As soon as the words fell, the black shadows gathered in a pile panicked for a moment, and then gathered in front of Fu Li to stand still, like little daughters-in-law, they looked cute.
Fu Li took a rough look and found that they were all dead souls. Thinking about the difference between life and death, he guessed that the living souls must be imprisoned elsewhere, so he asked, "Where are the living souls?"
"They're in the other ear!" cried the deceitful voice just now.
Fu Li pointed out the ghost, and said: "You take me there, the others stay here first and don't run around."
So the dead soul who called himself Zhang Sanpao took Fu Li out of the ear room, and pressed against the outer wall again.
"Kudden——" The stone that was pressed fell directly into the wall, and then, there was only a crackling sound of the mechanism turning, and when Fu Li pushed the door open again, the inside had changed completely!
Zhang Sanpao took the lead to enter the door, then stretched out his hand to guide him, and said respectfully: "It's inside, please."
After a while, seeing that Fu Li was unmoved, he raised his head and showed a flattering smile.But he seems to have forgotten what he looks like now. It would be fine if he was a human, but when the ghost smiled, his already empty mouth grinned to the end of his ears, the effect can be described as horrifying!
Fu Li stared intently at that terrifying face, and suddenly a pleasant chuckle escaped from his lips.
The moment the laughter fell, he caught off guard and grabbed Zhang Sanpao by the collar, and threw him against the wall!
After looking at the legs of 'Zhang Sanpao' for a while, Fu Li said firmly:
"You are not Zhang Sanpao, who are you?"
