Master's professionalism

Chapter 20 Sacrifice

Hearing Hu Liting's question, Xue Xiaoyan listened seriously. Although he is very good at memorizing scriptures, it is easy to think about the source after listening to people's recitation like this. through?"

Hu Liting nodded and said, "Not only that, look at that." Xue Xiaoyan looked at the Dharma flag in front of the Taoist altar, and was even more surprised. The so-called Dharma flag was actually a summoning banner!

Hu Liting said: "The Evocation Mantra and the Evocation Banner can barely be explained, but..." He didn't go on, but Xue Xiaoyan already understood that the Shurangama Sutra is a Buddhist treasure, which has the effect of suppressing and expelling evil spirits. Putting these two together, What is it for?

With the end of the ceremony, the doubts in the hearts of the two became more and more. Hu Liting asked Xue Xiaoyan to follow the drum team to see what was going on with these people. Anyway, there should be nothing wrong with so many people watching, and with his master That calf-protecting temper must have given Xue Xiaoyan some amulet, but before leaving, he still gave Xue Xiaoyan the bracelet, and ran to the village to see the situation.

Xue Xiaoyan followed behind the team, along the way there was a lot of gongs and drums, and the crowd followed along both sides of the road. Xue Xiaoyan just mixed in the crowd and followed all the way, the more he followed him, the more chills he felt down his back.I don’t know when ghosts began to follow behind the line, one by one, “walking” behind with no expression on their faces. It seemed strange and indescribable, in stark contrast to the lively crowd of onlookers. The Yin Qi made him shiver involuntarily.

The team set off from the ancestral hall, walked around the village, and finally returned to the temple, put the flag inside, and it was over. It took more than three hours from the start to the end. Xue Xiaoyan followed behind, already tired I scolded Hu Liting for being heartless.He thought that these ghosts would disperse after following the entrance of the temple, but when he followed back to the square, he was stunned. The ancestral hall, as for the ghosts following behind, they followed the temple in front of Xue Xiaoyan.

The fucking guts are too fat!

Xue Xiaoyan was stunned for a long time, and finally decided to call Hu Liting and explain the situation. Hu Liting asked Xue Xiaoyan to wait at the door after hearing, and he rushed over immediately.

When Hu Liting arrived, Xue Xiaoyan was picking skewers at the stall next to him. When he saw him, he handed one to him. Hu Liting didn't pick it up, so he took a bite and said, "Let's go in after eating, and we need to bring some skewers." What to eat?"

Xue Xiaoyan: "..." Do you think we went on a spring outing?

The temple is in the style of a courtyard house, and it is beautifully built. The walls are made of white stone bricks, with nail heads and carved jue, and there are traces of renovation everywhere. It can be seen that the villagers attach great importance to this place.

As soon as Xue Xiaoyan stepped in, a gust of cold wind made his skin crawl, and he frowned vigilantly.The temple is filled with the smell of joss sticks, and there is no one in the quiet. Only a threshold separates the noise of the square from the world. The weak candlelight illuminates a small area, and most of the houses are invisible at a glance. In the darkness, there seemed to be something about to move in the bottomless darkness, ready to rush to people at any time.

Hu Liting roughly scanned the environment, his face became serious, and said to Xue Xiaoyan: "It's not safe here, you go out first."

Xue Xiaoyan said: "Those ghosts? Is it okay to have a bracelet?"

Hu Liting shook his head, and said: "The bracelet is not omnipotent. It can also prevent ghosts like this. The things in the dark are probably more than that simple. The bracelet can't prevent it like this."

Xue Xiaoyan is a little strange, what kind of appearance is this, and what else can it be?What kind of new deformer is this?He thought for a while, stretched out his hand to hook the red thread on his neck, pulled out the ring, and said, "Can this be prevented?"

When Hu Liting saw the ring, he was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly took a breath, and his voice suddenly became higher: "Where did you get this?!"

Xue Xiaoyan was also stunned for a moment, then covered Hu Liting's mouth, and reprimanded in a low voice: "You're making too much noise... I've been wearing it since childhood, what's wrong?"

Hu Liting scratched his ears and scratched his cheeks when he heard the words, and the expression on his face changed several times. The wonderful movements and rich expressions made Xue Xiaoyan feel that he could perform a wonderful one-man show alone by pulling him on the stage. Finally, Hu Liting clicked his tongue, feeling weak : "It can be protected, this is a good thing."

Xue Xiaoyan snorted, put the ring back into his clothes, and looked at Hu Liting suspiciously.

Hu Liting didn't explain, took Xue Xiaoyan's hand and walked in, then suddenly let go after a few steps, he hesitated and said: "Let's go separately, you go around in the yard, I'll go inside." After speaking, he left Xue Xiaoyan and left.

Xue Xiaoyan wandered around the yard, but didn't find anything. His mind was full of Hu Liting's reaction when he saw the ring just now. Hu Liting's eyes seemed to have seen this ring before. Could it be that he knew the owner of the ring?Thinking of Hu Liting's reaction, Xue Xiaoyan always felt an indescribable weirdness, as if... It was like seeing someone else's expression on his wife's bed when he came home. Could it be that Hu Liting also likes that senior brother?In the next second, Xue Xiaoyan erased this thought from his mind. Hu Liting is a straight man, or the kind who has a sweetheart, it is unlikely, so he is someone he knows?Xue Xiaoyan's mind was spinning quickly, and suddenly something flashed, and he murmured like a raving: "Could it be the second senior brother's?"

"What's wrong with Xiao Er?" Hu Liting's voice suddenly sounded from behind, Xue Xiaoyan was taken aback, reflexively pressed the ring on his chest and turned around, looking at Hu Liting in embarrassment.

Xue Xiaoyan faltered, his eyes flickered, and he kept shaking his head. He couldn't say that he was still thinking about his sweetheart in this situation, could he?

Hu Liting didn't even intend to ask the bottom line. He was in a mess right now, and he just wanted to leave as soon as possible: "Let's talk about it when we go back. It's not suitable to stay here for a long time."

On the way back to Zhong's house, Hu Liting told Xue Xiaoyan what he saw.There is a big shrine inside the temple. A red gauze is hung in front of the shrine. It is unclear what is offered inside. The ghosts that Xue Xiaoyan saw were all kneeling in front of the shrine, kowtowing one by one. , It looked as if he was really worshiping God, so he didn't go to confirm it because he was afraid of disturbing them.

Xue Xiaoyan asked doubtfully, "What is it like?"

Hu Liting said: "It's like, whenever you see a ghost worshiping a god, it's too late to hide."

The two went back to Xue Xiaoyan's room together. Xue Xiaoyan sat cross-legged on the bed, supported his head, and said, "It seems that those ghosts should have been recruited. The purpose of going around the village like this is to kill the wandering spirits nearby. The wild ghosts shouted and sent them to the temple. The Shurangama Sutra should be afraid that they will cause trouble on the way? Thinking about it now, it is a bit strange that this kind of sacrifice is done at night. At first, I thought it was because I was afraid of being hurt by the sun. The soul of the ancestors, now it seems that this may not be the reason."

Hu Liting sat aside, looked out of the window with his head tilted, and said, "I just don't know what is there. If possible, I have to find some time to look at it, but the most important thing now is to find Xiao Er first."

Xue Xiaoyan let out a cry, like a cat scratching in his heart. He really wanted to ask Hu Liting if he knew the owner of the ring, but he didn't know how to say it. He scratched his head in his heart for a while, but Hu Liting brought it up first: "That ring , can I have a look?"

Xue Xiaoyan groaned, reacted and took the ring off her neck, and handed it to Hu Liting.

As soon as Hu Liting's hand touched the ring, Xue Xiaoyan saw a faint light glowing on the ring. The light was emerald green with traces of gold sandwiched in it. The light rippled like water, as if it was about to melt in the hand at any time.

Xue Xiaoyan snorted and said, "I've been wearing it for so long, this is the first time I've seen it look like this, how did you do it?"

Hu Liting looked at the ring with a complicated expression, and said: "This thing is a spiritual thing, and it can be like this when it is injected with clean spiritual energy."

Xue Xiaoyan nodded: "Very beautiful."

Hearing this, Hu Liting curled his mouth, reached out to take the ring and put it back on Xue Xiaoyan's neck, and said in a warm voice, "Put it on if it's beautiful, it can protect you."

Hearing the word protection, Xue Xiaoyan suddenly had an inexplicable feeling in his heart. His heart jumped like a frightened rabbit. He reached out and pressed the ring on his chest, and pressed the rabbit against the wall of his heart. He said thank you softly, the voice was so low that it seemed to be an illusion.

Although Hu Liting on the side looked calm, his heart was already turbulent and full of mixed feelings. Anything injected with clean aura was bullshit. It was something passed down from his family, and no one except his family could drive it. The ring that he put on the neck of the junior sister with his own hands is now in the hands of Xue Xiaoyan, and the person involved himself said that he has worn it since he was a child. This is really an oolong!Although he was very reluctant, Hu Liting had to admit that he was blind back then and misidentified his gender.

Xue Xiaoyan's thin thank you made Hu Liting scratch his heart and lungs. The little girl with the mushroom head and standing behind her father appeared in her mind. She said sweetly like this when she got the ring Thank you, now that the little girl who made him feel so cute is stacked with this gentle man in front of him, he actually thinks...it's still cute, Hu Liting couldn't help shivering when the thought came up, he comforted himself in his heart : "It must have been too much shock to make my brain go numb, just get some sleep." He waved his hand in his heart and swept all the messy thoughts into a corner, coughed dryly, and stood up pretending to be calm Said: "Let's do this today, run for a day, go to bed early."

Xue Xiaoyan was still immersed in endless thoughts, when Hu Liting's voice penetrated into his ears, he froze for a while, and said, "Okay, good night, brother."

Xue Xiaoyan's words made Hu Liting's foot slip when he walked to the door, and he almost bumped into the door frame.

The two of them lay down on the bed with their own thoughts.

When Xue Xiaoyan was sleeping at night, he suddenly felt a chill, which made him wake up with a jerk.Xue Xiaoyan thought it was a problem with the air conditioner, so he got up in a daze and looked at the remote control. The temperature was fine. He was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted. He slowed down his breathing and moved his eyes slowly in the room. When he moved to the window, his pupils shrank suddenly. .

It was a pale man with pupilless eyes staring straight at him like that for a whole night.
