Grass head fairy's breaking evil

Brother Wu pointed to the old-fashioned calendar and said, today is an auspicious day, suitable for drawing symbols.

His paper talismans were almost used up, so he went to buy some yellow paper yesterday and came back, planning to draw some more for the need of exorcising ghosts.

Drawing symbols is not as simple as I imagined, just the preparation work, the fifth brother has done a lot.

He first tidied up the study room, then took a bath and changed clothes, lit incense candles on the writing desk, and silently recited the blessings before spreading out the yellow paper for writing talismans.

Pens, inks, papers, inkstones, and danzhu cannot be used casually, and mantras must be recited one by one.

Like water.The fifth brother held the water bowl in his left hand and made sword fingers in his right hand. While gesturing on the water, he said: "Heaven uses life, and earth takes [-]% to benefit all things and nourish life. In the place where the filth is destroyed, the calligraphy and talismans make meritorious deeds, as if there is no extremely high true law!"

Afterwards, he told me that this section is called [Chishui Curse], and correspondingly there are [Chibi Curse], [Chi Paper Curse], [Chi Ink Ink Curse] and [Chi Danzhu Curse].

When the fifth brother dipped the brush in the ink and began to draw symbols, he still couldn’t do without the corresponding incantation——[Curse of writing down the pen], and he had to chant the [Curse of closing the pen] at the end.

What impresses me the most is that if the talisman he draws ends with the word "Gang", the [Curse of the Pen] must be read in conjunction with the strokes, and the words are sonorous-"([-]) Congenital righteousness, ([-]) Deception and support , (丨) the gate of heaven is opened, (one) connects to heaven and earth, (丨) makes thousands of ghosts, (one) connects to sages and meanings!"

After drawing the talisman, he took out his own seal, dipped it in red danzhu, and printed it on the paper talisman, so that the talisman was complete.

In order to test whether the talisman paper is valid, the fifth brother read a section of [Test Talisman], and the ink on the talisman paper lightened slightly, indicating that the talisman was valid.

It took half a day for Wu Ge to draw dozens of talismans, and he was so tired that his head was sweating. During the process, he had to recite the [Body Purification Mantra] to continue drawing talismans after wiping off his sweat.

This talisman is really difficult to learn.In addition to reciting so many awkward mantras and drawing such complicated pictures and texts, people without spirituality may not be able to draw well according to the pictures.

"It's done!" Brother Wu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after finishing the talisman.

I stayed quietly in the corner for fear of disturbing him, and only dared to take a loud breath when I saw that he had finished painting.

"Fifth Brother, it turns out that drawing symbols is so troublesome!"

"Yes, if some processes are missing, the talisman will not work."

"Then if it's an emergency, wouldn't it be too late for the paper talisman to be drawn?"

Fifth Brother said with a smile: "It's okay, there is no need to pay so much attention to using essence and blood to draw talismans at critical moments."

Well, indeed, there are often such plots in TV or movies-a Taoist priest bites his finger and draws a Taoist talisman and then defeats the ghost.

It is estimated that if the talisman is written with blood, the price is too high, so I usually use pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

"Fifth Brother, why don't I learn how to draw talismans from you!" After I learn it, even if Hu Changhe is gone, I don't have to be afraid of those little yellow skins anymore.

After being startled for a moment, Fifth Brother said with a solemn expression: "Xiao Kai, learning to draw symbols is to cultivate Taoism, and I don't want you to cultivate Taoism."

"Why?" I was puzzled, but a thought flashed in my mind—could it be that people who practice Taoism cannot marry wives?The fifth brother is thirty and still not married. Could it be because of this?

"Have you ever heard of five disadvantages and three deficiencies?" Brother Wu still had a serious tone.

Huh?Somewhat familiar, I thought for a while, and suddenly remembered, "There seems to be a TV series in Hong Kong called "Zombie Daoist" that mentioned it, is it true?"

"Yeah." Fifth Brother nodded, "Although ordinary people may not have complete numerology, but those who practice Taoism certainly don't."

Taoism covers medical divination, astrology, armor, geomancy and alchemy, each of which is not something ordinary people can easily do, so those who practice Taoism will be punished by the way of heaven, the most direct manifestation is incomplete numerology.

The so-called five disadvantages are widowhood, widowhood, loneliness, disability—a man who loses his wife is widowed;

The so-called three deficiencies are—lack of money, lack of life, and lack of power.

Those who practice the Tao must hit one of these eight.

After listening to Fifth Brother's explanation, I hesitated and asked him: "Then, do you know which one you committed?"

"Gu." The fifth brother looked at me, and then said: "My father passed away the day I was born, and my mother passed away a few years later. My four older sisters raised me for a few years, and then I met my master. , he saw that I already had this fate, so he accepted me as his apprentice and took me away."

Few without a father is an orphan, so to speak... "Then I should also be suitable for cultivation, my father..."

"No!" He interrupted me sternly, "You will settle your karma with the Huang family in the future, and you will live a good life like an ordinary person. If you practice Taoism, the road ahead will be difficult!"

I wanted to say that I was not afraid, but seeing his strict expression, I finally swallowed this sentence back.He usually always smiles, this is the first time he has been so fierce to me.

Seeing that I was no longer attached, he calmed down, patted my shoulder lightly, and said, "Your matter will definitely be resolved! Even if your fox fairy is gone, Fifth Brother is still here!"

I had a sore nose, and quickly lowered my head, not wanting him to see the moisture in my eyes, "Yeah."

"Let's go, it's time to eat." He came over and took my shoulders and walked out.

While eating, I suddenly thought of something. I looked at him and hesitated for a moment before asking: "Fifth Brother, you are both a Taoist and a younger brother. Don't you have to suffer from both sides?"

He smiled and said, "Yes, there are pros and cons to everything. If you have more skills, you will naturally suffer more."

I remembered what he said last time that Second Master Bog possessed him once, not only would he lose the corresponding period of life, but he would also suffer from pain all over his body.When we first met, after killing the old lady in red, when he talked with us with a normal face, what kind of severe pain did he endure?No wonder he didn't take the initiative to chat with me when he drove me home. Now I know that he was concentrating on driving while enduring the severe pain and didn't have the energy to chat with me at all.

In front of outsiders, the fifth elder brother is highly skilled in Taoism, and his master is profound in Taoism, which is enviable, but he does not know that all of these will have to pay a considerable price.

***

The next night, my fifth brother and I got ready and went to the [-] ghost building again.

I asked Brother Wu what [-] means, and he said that there is a military hospital near this building called [-], so the whole area is called [-].

I asked Brother Wu why he had to come at night, and he said that his friend didn't want people to know about it, so we had to sneak in in the middle of the night.

Fortunately, the moon was in the middle of the sky, and the vision was clear. Brother Wu and I climbed up the brick wall and turned in.

The weeds in the yard were knee-high, and the crickets lurking in the grass kept chirping.My fifth brother and I walked towards a door through the weeds.

Brother Wu gently opened the door and walked in, followed by me.The room was empty, with nothing in it, and the moonlight shone in through the window, illuminating the ground as snow-white.

Fifth Brother turned his face to the side, motioning me to follow him to the next room to have a look.We backed out and went to the next room, which was also empty.

After going around the first floor, we confirmed that the female ghost and the black cat were on the upper floor, so we went up to the second floor from the external stairs.

The stairs are welded with iron plates. Even if you step on it lightly, there will still be a low and long sound of "boom--" and "boom--", which sounds a little creepy at night.

After reaching the second floor, Fifth Brother looked back at me, said in a low voice, "Be careful!", held the Shenlong Cone in his hand, and took the lead to walk forward.Although I have Hu Changhe's protection, I still feel nervous and afraid subconsciously.I followed closely behind Fifth Brother, constantly looking left and right, for fear that the ghost cat would suddenly appear and scare me half to death.

After entering the first room, we saw that the ghost was not there, so we went to the second room.The second room was the one where the female ghost was hiding that day, and I was a little nervous.

Fifth Brother gently opened the door, looked inside by the moonlight, and a figure came into view!

That man, no, it should be said that it was the ghost, was standing with his back to us not far from the door, wearing a pale yellow dress, with long hair reaching to the waist, and his bare-exposed skin was blue-gray, It should be the female ghost I saw that day, but I didn't see the black cat, and I don't know if it was held in her arms.

From the moment the door was opened, a gust of air-conditioning came out of the room, making me shiver in the sweltering summer night.Hu Changhe had already squatted up at this time, maintaining vigilance, ready to fight at any time.

Before we could speak, the female ghost spoke first: "This is my house, get the hell out of here!"

My fifth brother and I were taken aback.Fifth Brother thought for a while and said: "Even if this was your home before, but now it has changed hands, and this is a living man's mansion, you shouldn't appear here. I advise you to go back and forth wherever you go!"

"This is my home!" The female ghost roared angrily and turned around.

Seeing the bleeding from the seven orifices on her pale face, I couldn't help but gasp in fright.

"This is my home, no one can drive me away!" Her sharp voice echoed in the empty room, making people tremble.

"Since you insist on not leaving, then I can only drive you out!" Fifth Brother said, flashing out the Dragon Cone, as if he was about to pounce on it.

"Meow—" Accompanied by a meow, a black shadow suddenly fell from above, and a paw was aimed at Fifth Brother's head.Brother Wu reacted very quickly, and he dodged the pounce with a short body and a wrong step to the side. Before the black cat landed on the ground, he swept across it with a knife.

I thought that the black cat had nowhere to hide and would be cut in half, but the cat was extremely alert, and its front paws were on Fifth Brother's wrist, and with the help of strength, it lifted half of its body up and escaped. That knife, and then jumped up and landed on the ground in the distance, staring at us tightly with eyes twinkling with light.

Fifth Brother looked at his wrist. It was scratched by a cat's paw. Although it was not broken, there were blue paw prints.

It can hurt the fifth brother, which shows that this ghost and cat are not easy to deal with.

"Hurry up and get out!" The female ghost stared at us sullenly and cursed coldly.
