The Taste of Ghosts in the World
Chapter 20
Qi Mu was anxious, he looked down at the roll of talisman paper in his hand, he didn't know how to use it, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he took out a stack and spilled it out.
Those talisman papers seemed to be alive, they stood up by themselves, moved closer to the tree, and blocked old man Qi's talisman papers before they came.
The talisman paper collided with the talisman paper, and the flames spread all the way during the confrontation, forming a circle of fire. After a while, the flames gradually extinguished, and all the talisman papers scattered and fell down.
Qi Mu didn't expect that a random sprinkling would work, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and the old man Qi's expression also changed slightly. He could recognize those talismans, which were drawn by Lao Zhang, and ordinary people couldn't force them at all, let alone confront them. Can still be on par with myself.
After re-examining Qi Mu, old man Qi said: "Little brother, I see that your spiritual platform is quiet and very intelligent, have you ever considered joining us?"
Qi Mu declined with a smile: "Aren't all your celestial masters passed down from generation to generation? My ancestors didn't do this."
Old man Qi thought for a while and said, "If it were you, I could teach it myself."
"Why?"
"Since you have the ability of spiritual vision, rather than being haunted by evil spirits without knowing anything, it would be better..."
"Why don't you use it?" Qi Mu understood what he meant, and couldn't help laughing, "Are you afraid that I will help ghosts and ruin your business?"
Old man Qi coughed, and said kindly: "Evil ghosts harm people. Of course, our heavenly master must destroy them and protect the people. If you mix with them, it is suicide. I am doing it for your own good."
Qi Mu emphasized again: "They are my friends."
"Friend?" Old man Qi sneered, shook his head and said: "Ghosts are the most yin body, filthy things, they don't belong to the yang world, how can they be friends with living people? Little brother, you have been deceived..."
Qi Mu shook his head and said unmoved: "I'm not a master, and the great thing of protecting the people has nothing to do with me. If I'm really deceived, then I'm stupid and willing to be deceived."
The old man Qi said with a blunt smile: "It seems that we can't reach an agreement."
Qi Mu nodded.
"Then let me ask you one last time, which side are you on?"
Qi Mu took a step back without hesitation, held Feng Baisui's hand, and smiled faintly, "Isn't it obvious?"
The smirk on old man Qi's face suddenly collapsed, "You are a living person, but you want to help ghosts?"
Qi Mu said calmly: "I've already said, they are my friends, whether they are human or ghosts, I will help friends."
The old man Qi put on a straight face, without saying a word, pinched a finger, Qi Buyang was shocked, and hurriedly said: "Grandpa! Don't do this! He is just an ordinary person!"
Old man Qi snorted coldly, looked at Qi Mu, "He is not an ordinary person."
As soon as the words fell, a thunderbolt fell from the top of Qi Mu's head, Feng Baisui pulled him away, and another thunderbolt fell in front of him.
Feng Baisui glared at old man Qi and warned, "Old man, don't be too arrogant!"
Old man Qi shouted: "It's only natural to kill evil spirits!"
Feng Baisui said: "Even if there are evil ghosts that are harmful to people, most of them have nothing to do with living people. How dare you say that all living people are good people?"
"Yangjian is the world of living people, and ghosts should not exist."
"You are so overbearing, people don't regard them as fellow citizens once they die? Don't attribute all bad things to ghosts. Humans are capable of doing any evil deeds by themselves. You have lived to a certain age, and you don't even understand this truth." Feng Bai Sui sneered, "If you are old enough, you should learn to be ashamed."
"What nonsense!"
Old man Qi's face turned even darker, and several thunderbolts struck Feng Baisui instantly.
At this time, Qi Mu saw that the No. 19 bus was coming again, and stopped quietly, with the door wide open.
The strange man didn't hide anymore this time, he hesitated for a while, stood up, and stared straight at the open car door.
"Why are you in a daze!" Feng Baisui pulled Qi Mu over, and at the same time, the place where he was standing just now was scorched black by the electric light.
Qi Mu didn't expect the old man to do things so terribly, his tone became cold, and he asked him, "Are you going to kill someone?"
Old man Qi snorted and did not speak, and then all the firepower was focused on Feng Baisui.
In the flashlight, Qi Mu couldn't help turning his head to look again. The No. 19 bus had already closed its doors and started driving again, but the man was nowhere to be seen on the platform.
Did he go up?
Before Qi Mu could take a closer look, Qi Buyang yelled, "Grandpa, the ghost car is leaving!"
Old man Qi turned his head quickly, yelled "No", and left Qi Mu and Feng Baisui to catch up.
shhhhh--
Three fire talismans were released in a row, and the flaming talisman papers chased the No. 19 car. Just when they were about to touch the buttocks of the car, No. 19 disappeared in a flash.
The fire talisman missed its target, turned around and flew back, and landed in front of old man Qi.
The two members of the Qi family were stunned for a moment, Qi Mu seized the opportunity, pulled Feng Baisui up and ran, and said to the sidewalk tree as he ran, "Be careful yourself, if you can't do it, go to Longhu and don't show yourself for now."
"Okay." The Hanged Ghost agreed softly.
Qi Mu heard Qi Buyang's voice behind him: "Grandpa, let them go, they haven't done anything bad!"
Then there was old man Qi's scolding voice: "Nonsense! If you don't harm people now, you can't guarantee that you won't harm people in the future..."
Running all the way, Qi Mu didn't relax until he closed the door of the house.
Feng Baisui looked down at their tightly clenched hands, even in the scuffle just now, he did not let go.
After school the next day, Qi Mu went to find old man Zhang and returned the remaining talisman to him.
But there he met Qi Buyang.
"Why is he here with you?" Qi Mu asked old man Zhang.
"This kid is looking for you."
"what's up?"
Qi Buyang said to Qi Mu seriously: "I've thought about it carefully, what you said last night is also reasonable, grandpa shouldn't be so extreme."
Old man Zhang smiled and said, "Not bad, not bad, children can be taught."
"But..." Qi Buyang raised his eyebrows again and said: "There are also many evil spirits, you are too unguarded against evil spirits!"
Hearing the lesson of his righteous words, Qi Mu nodded with a smile and said: "You are right."
Qi Buyang took out a note and handed it to Qi Mu, "This is my phone number. If you need anything, you can ask me for help. I won't tell grandpa."
Qi Mu took it, and Qi Buyang turned to Feng Baisui, "If you dare to harm him, our Qi family will not let you go!"
Feng Baisui snorted disdainfully.
"Here, this is for you." Qi Buyang handed out another piece of emerald green jade to Qi Mu.
"This is?"
"It's my talisman, it was blessed by my grandfather, it will definitely work! You are so unlucky, you always go to places where there are many ghosts, and you can easily die without knowing why." Qi Buyang said seriously.
Qi Mu was a little embarrassed, "This is too expensive, I can't accept it."
"Accept it! I'm doing it for your own good!"
Old man Zhang took the piece of jade, turned it over and over in his hand, and muttered, "This is a good thing. Old Monster Qi must have spent a lot of time looking for it."
"Of course." Qi Buyang said proudly, "I've been wearing it since I was a child."
"But..." Old man Zhang put the jade back into Qi Buyang's hand, shook his finger and said, "This thing is useless to him."
"How can it be useless!" Qi Buyang was anxious.
Old man Zhang glanced at Qi Mu, "Don't worry, ghosts can't hurt him."
Qi Buyang was stunned, and Qi Mu was also stunned.
"What do you mean ghosts can't hurt him?"
"If you can't get hurt, you can't get hurt..." Old man Zhang pushed Qi Buyang, "Okay, go back quickly, if you let old monster Qi know that you came to my place, it will be troublesome."
Qi Buyang had no choice but to go out reluctantly, and when he reached the door, he suddenly asked Qi Mu: "You...what's your name?"
Qi Mu smiled at him and replied, "Qi Mu."
"Qi Mu..."
Qi Buyang nodded, turned and left.
Qi Mu sat down in front of old man Zhang's stall, tapped on the table and said, "Now... let's study carefully what you just said."
"Which sentence? The old man is very busy with business, you should go quickly." Zhang old man bowed down guiltily to look for something.
"Don't pretend to be stupid." Qi Mu didn't bother to go around with him, and asked directly: "Why can't ghosts hurt me?"
There was no movement under the stall. After a long time, Old Zhang raised his head, "Give me the horoscope, and I will tell you."
"Okay." Qi Mu wrote him all the horoscopes of his birthday.
When the old man saw it, he let out a "tsk", "I've seen the eight-character vision twice in my life, and you two took it all."
"how?"
Old man Zhang pointed at Feng Baisui, "You, like him, can't see your future destiny."
Qi Mu was surprised, "Why can't you see it?"
Old man Zhang looked at Feng Baisui, "Ten years ago, I told your mother that your destiny is only up, because some things will happen, and you don't know what will happen in the future. Facts have proved that you have become a ghost."
He turned to Qi Mu again, "We met for the first time, and I said that you will encounter a change that month. In fact, the meaning is the same as his, and you can't tell what happened after that."
Feng Baisui said impatiently: "What exactly do you want to express?"
"For example, this is your fate, and this is his fate..." Old man Zhang stretched out two index fingers, "You were walking normally, but when you arrived, there was a turning point..."
The old man bent his two index fingers at the same time, "With this turn, I turned out of the original track and started walking in an unknown direction, and this direction..."
The two fingers were joined together, "You have come together. From then on, the fate of the two people is connected together. Your fate is intertwined, so you can't tell it."
"When will we separate?" Qi Mu asked.
Old man Zhang put down his hands, "I don't know, at least we won't separate now."
"Why is this..."
"This old man doesn't know that you two didn't have a previous life, and you appeared in this life out of thin air, maybe you came from the same place."
"Then what are we?"
Old man Zhang shook his head and picked up his teapot, "Since you are a human being in this life, why bother to think about what you were before. You will know when you die."
Feng Baisui said: "I'm already dead, why don't you know?"
Old man Zhang glanced at Qi Mu, "You are tied to him, and if he is not dead, you are not dead."
Going around, Qi Mu finally remembered the original question, "Why can't ghosts hurt me?"
"Because you are pure." Old man Zhang swallowed a sip of tea, "Your qi is very clean, while ghosts are turbid, just the opposite, so they can't hurt you."
"..." Qi Mu said with shame: "Where am I pure?"
"This is decided before birth, and has nothing to do with your growth."
Qi Mu and Feng Baisui came out from old man Zhang.
"I'm a human, you're a ghost, it's very clear at first, but after the old man said that, it's not so clear, what are we?" Qi Mu asked Feng Baisui.
Feng Baisui said: "It doesn't matter."
Qi Mu suddenly said: "I remember when I was a child, I told my dad that he could see ghosts, and he actually believed it, and asked me, ghosts or humans, which side do you prefer?"
"How did you answer?"
"I don't know. I like whoever has a good relationship with me." Qi Mu laughed, "I'm protecting my weaknesses."
Feng Baisui recalled last night when old man Qi pressed him for questioning. At that time, Qi Mu was standing beside him, holding his hand. The feeling was indescribably joyful.
Qi Mu said lightly: "Actually, I don't like to make friends with people, and I keep a respectful distance from ghosts, so I have been alone for so many years. Then there was Dahei, but it left again, and then you came .”
He looked at Feng Baisui, "I don't know how long you can stay by my side, but I feel very lucky to meet you, at least I am no longer alone."
Feng Baisui held his hand expressionlessly, "I can stay as long as I like."
Qi Mu was taken aback, "How long?"
Feng Baisui lowered his face, "You saw me being crushed to death by a flower pot, at least let me see how you died."
Qi Mu smiled and let him lead him away. For the first time, he didn't bother to care about the weird eyes of passers-by on the street. Under the eyes of passers-by, he said to himself: "Hey, when I die, let's go reincarnate together. How about it?"
"not so good."
Unseen by others, someone beside him answered him like this.
Those talisman papers seemed to be alive, they stood up by themselves, moved closer to the tree, and blocked old man Qi's talisman papers before they came.
The talisman paper collided with the talisman paper, and the flames spread all the way during the confrontation, forming a circle of fire. After a while, the flames gradually extinguished, and all the talisman papers scattered and fell down.
