I practice the Tao by blind practice

Chapter 173 Is Zhang Lame Dead?
There is a saying in folklore that if a person walks in a desolate place in the middle of the night, if he hears someone calling his name behind his back, he must not turn his head.

Because under normal circumstances, there is a flame on the shoulders and the top of the head.

When you turn your head back, the flame on your shoulders will go out. At that time, some ghosts and monsters can take advantage of the gap and cause harm to people.

Of course, some people are born with low flames, so if they go out in the middle of the night, they will easily provoke evil things and encounter some evil things.

Whether these claims are true or not has long been unclear.

Anyway, Chen Hai himself, in the state of being out of his body, has never seen any flames on other people's bodies!

Hearing someone calling his name, without saying a word, he not only turned his head, but also jumped directly to the side of the locust tree.

The current him is a man of high art and boldness, coupled with a state of mind and soul, he naturally has no scruples about those things that should be paid attention to in folklore.

Locust tree, the ghost in the tree.

The trunk of the locust tree, which is as thick as a bucket, has grown for how many years, Chen Hai is not sure, after all, he has no research on this aspect at all.

Just looking up and down the locust tree for a few times, he was sure that this thing hadn't become a spirit.

That being the case, then the one who calls his name can only be a certain existence living in this locust tree!

In the past, when he was wandering around here, he had actually passed by this locust tree several times.

It's just that the existence living in the locust tree should have been hidden deeply, which caused Chen Hai to not notice the abnormality of this tree.

At this moment, under his deliberate attention, near the root of the locust tree, in a tree hole the size of a baby's head, a small ball emitting a miserable green light has fallen into his sight.

"Chen Hai, don't do anything, it's me, Lame Zhang..."

Perhaps, it was because Chen Hai's spirit-soul appearance was a little frightening. Under the gaze of his row of ferocious compound eyes, the little ball trembled, as if encountering a natural enemy.

Hearing some miserable words, at the same time as the small ball came out, he slowly floated out bit by bit.

After he finally floated out of the tree hole, the small ball slowly unfolded and turned into a vague and thin figure.

This figure, suspended near Chen Hai's leech soul, is like a small bug around the mouth of a big rooster, and the two are simply out of proportion.

As for who is strong and who is weak?At a glance, it is clear at a glance.

"Who did I think was calling me? It turned out to be you, Uncle Lame!"

"Why? You're also interested, and you're out of your body, swimming in the night sky..."

Seeing that it was Zhang Laizi, Chen Hai laughed and joked.

However, his ridicule was only halfway through before he stopped.

Then, with a suspicious expression on his face, he once again looked Zhang Laizi up and down carefully: "Uncle Lame, your condition is very strange!"

"Your divine soul is no longer bound by a physical body, and it seems that it may disappear at any time?"

"Tell me honestly, what's going on here?"

Looking directly at Zhang Laizi, in Chen Hai's row of ferocious compound eyes, there was a faint light flickering, piercing, as if he wanted to see through all of Zhang Laizi in front of him.

When he spoke, his tone was relatively calm at the beginning, but after he finished speaking, he was almost questioning.

"Chen Hai, I knew that my current situation cannot be hidden from you!"

"Seeing your divine and soul appearance, when I passed by me, I knew that you have already surpassed blue and surpassed blue in the process of cultivating the Tao. I don't know how much more you have surpassed me!"

"If I hadn't helped you drive away the evil spirits, and I had a little impression of your soul breath, I would never have been able to be sure that this powerful existence passing by me would be the incarnation of your soul, Chen Hai!"

Feeling very complicated, Zhang Lizi let out a long sigh, and said again: "Since we are all of the same kind, I won't hide it from you. I was actually dead more than ten days ago!"

"After ordinary people die, their souls are muddled. Generally, in about seven days, the souls will disappear."

"How can I put it this way, I have also cultivated and entered the door, and the distance from the realm of night travel is only a thin line."

"With a soul that is much stronger than ordinary people, even though I am dead, I can temporarily preserve a wisp of spiritual wisdom."

"Knowing that the locust tree can nourish the soul, I temporarily live in it, and I can barely resist the erosion of the yang energy between the sky and the earth during the daytime."

"However, I have almost reached the limit of being able to support it until now. If I can resist for another two or three days at most, my remnant soul will definitely be annihilated in ashes."

"Chen Hai, in view of the fact that the Taoist book I lent you led you to the path of cultivation, can you do me a favor?"

Having said this, Zhang Laizi stopped, with a look of anticipation on his face, he even glanced at Chen Hai several times.

Silent, Chen Hai did not answer.

Want to talk about love?That day when he was unconscious, Zhang Laizi helped him exorcise evil spirits, his parents stayed with him, eating and drinking, how much money did Zhang Laizi want, Chen Zhonghua, Jiang Meixian, and both of them did not miss him.

As for the unknown ancient book that led him on the road, Lame Zhang didn't want to lend it to him at all.

Chen Haineng borrowed the Daoist book from him. To put it bluntly, it was purely a transaction.

As for myself, how much favor do I owe him, Cripple Zhang?Chen Hai didn't think so.

Of course, for the sake of this little bit of affection, if the matter Zhang Laizi begged him for was relatively simple and he could solve it easily, he wouldn't mind, and would just give him a little help.

"Uncle Lame, can you tell me how you died?" After a moment of silence, Chen Hai asked.

He originally thought that Zhang Lizi had entered the night tour, but now it seems that this guy is only in the out-of-body stage, and he is weaker than he guessed.

But even so, the reason why he suddenly died and turned into a remnant soul still made Chen Hai extremely curious.

"What else could be the reason? It's not because Wang Xiuhua's wife is unreliable. The agreed man, Chen Erleng, has gone to the county and won't be back until two days later!"

"But in the end, in the middle of the night, Chen Erleng came back and was directly caught by him!"

"If it's just a broken leg by him, I would admit it, but that guy, when he caught me at the scene, brought two accomplices with him. They wanted my old life on purpose!"

"No matter what, I can't swallow this breath!"

While talking, he glanced at Zhang Laizi who was reacting to Chen Hai, seeing that Chen Hai seemed to be indifferent all the time.

He gritted his teeth, and then said again: "Chen Hai, I still have a book of ancestral scriptures hidden in my house."

"However, that book is too advanced, and the things in it, I don't have enough realm, so I can't practice at all."

"As long as you agree to avenge me and bring Chen Erleng and the others to justice, the Daoist book I have hidden will be given to you for free!"

The ancestral precepts of their Zhang family are the Daoist scriptures handed down by the family, and they will never be passed on to foreign surnames.

But all of his own people are dead, at this moment, lame Zhang, how can he care about the ancestral training or not!

Besides, this is not the first time he has violated the precepts of his ancestors.

Last time, Chen Hai asked him to borrow a book. Although he delivered the book to Chen Hai through Wang Xiuhua's hand, this behavior was also a manifestation of his violation of the ancestral precepts.
