Six Ways of Fumo

Chapter 1038 The Ghost Hunter

"So, as a member of the Maoshan Sect, you should feel proud and honored."

Ding Ermiao smiled and said: "Study Taoism hard, practice hard, don't embarrass us Maoshan School."

"Thank you for your great uncle's teaching. I am willing to go through fire and water to make the Maoshan Sect more prosperous, no matter what!" Wan Shu stood at attention and raised his hand in salute.

Unexpectedly, Li Qingdong hit Wan Shugao on the head with a chestnut and shouted: "You bastard, how many times have I told you that in this sect, when you greet your elders, you should make mudras, not salute!"

"Your uncle, Brother Ermiao and I are old friends, can't we just be so careless?" Wan Shugao rubbed his head that hurt from being hit, and muttered with bared teeth.

The figure flashed, but it was Wu Zhanzhan who came back, holding several yellow-brown talismans in his hand.

Judging from the color, the charm must have been preserved for many years.

That's not a paper charm, it's a charm painted on yellow cloth. The fabric has faded and looks very old.

"These talismans were all left by the ancestor. Once burned, the formation can be activated immediately." Wu Zhanzhan carefully unfolded the talismans one by one and showed them to Ding Ermiao and Li Qingdong.

The four talismans are exactly the same, with the same fabric, font, and color.

"Uncle Master, can you burn one so that we can see the power of the mountain protection formation?" Wan Shu asked eagerly.

"Absurd! This is the life-saving spell left behind by the Patriarch to protect the lives of the younger disciples and maintain the immortality of the Maoshan Sect. How can it be a child's play and a casual experiment?" Wu Zhanzhan glared.

Ding Ermiao and Li Qingdong stared at the same time, Wan Shugao was finally too scared to speak.

"Uncle Wu, has this kind of talisman ever been burned?" Li Qingdong twirled his beard and asked, "That is to say, has the mountain-protecting formation in Maoshan ever been activated?"

Wu Zhanzhan raised the talisman in his hand and said:
"Sanmao Zhenjun left behind a total of nine spells. Currently there are only four left, and of course the other five have been burned. It was the era of war, and the fire was approaching. The headmaster of Maoshan had no choice but to protect the foundation of Maoshan. Just started the big formation."

"So which one was the most recent?" Ding Ermiao asked.

"The most recent one was not long after the Qing Dynasty entered the Pass. At that time, the Tiger and Wolf Division of the Eight Banners slaughtered the Qinhuai generation, and the war spread to Maoshan. The leader, Taoist Ye Ye, activated the formation."

Wu Zhanzhan looked at the charm in his hand and said:
"In the end, the Sanmao Palace rockery formation trapped [-] bannermen for seven days. It forced Kangxi to issue an edict to stop the massacre, and recognized the noble status of Maoshan and Longhu Mountain in the Taoist sect for generations. These things, Xu Yun There are records in the existing classics."

Ding Ermiao nodded. It seemed that what Wu Zhanzhan said was true.

"Xiaoxiao, what do you think?" Ding Ermiao asked after a long time.

In fact, Ding Ermiao was reluctant to separate from Ji Xiaoxiao.But what Wu Zhanzhan said makes sense. If he takes Ji Xiaoxiao everywhere, one is not safe, and the other is that he is tied up.

"I don't know..., I want to hear your opinion." Ji Xiaoxiao frowned slightly and said.

Wu Zhanzhan smiled and said: "Xiaoxiao, I left you in Maoshan. I had another meaning, but I didn't say it out loud."

"What else does it mean?" Ji Xiaoxiao was confused.

"As Ermiao's wife, you are in danger all the time. So I think you should learn some spells, at least to the extent that you can protect yourself, so as not to drag down Ermiao." Wu Zhanzhan put away the spell, said:
"Er Miao was ordered to conquer the four major ghost bandits. It is expected to take one year. During this year, I can train you to become a more powerful ghost hunter. In the future, whether you and Er Miao hunt ghosts together, or encounter Even the old ghost in Lingshan County will not be at a loss for you."

Ji Xiaoxiao was stunned: "You want me to learn Taoism?"

Everyone was stunned, including Li Qingdong and Ding Ermiao.

"Uncle Master, do you mean to accept sister-in-law Xiaoxiao as your disciple?" Wan Shugao asked.

Everyone had the same question and looked at Wu Zhanzhan together.

Because everyone knows that Maoshan Taoism is not spread casually. Only one must become a disciple of Maoshan and be a disciple of Xu Yunqi, and then he is qualified to learn Maoshan Technique.

"I know what you are thinking, but you are all wrong." Wu Zhanzhan smiled and said, "I have no intention of accepting a disciple, so don't worry about seniority."

Ding Ermiao breathed a sigh of relief and asked with a smile: "But if you don't accept a disciple, how can Xiaoxiao learn the Maoshan technique?"

"I only said that Xiaoxiao should learn some self-protection spells. I didn't say that she should learn the Maoshan technique." Wu Zhanzhan corrected Ding Ermiao and said:
"There are many ghost-catching skills in the world, and they are not just found in Maoshan. Among them, there are also some masters who have compiled folk ghost-catching skills and promoted them widely. They have no sect, but they are also very powerful. In this way People who dare not call themselves mages often say they are ghost hunters."

"Ghost hunter?" Ji Xiaoxiao said with a happy face, "This title is very trendy, I like it!"

Wu Zhanzhan also smiled and said:
"These ghost hunters sometimes come to Xuyunquan for exchanges and discussions. I have also studied their ghost hunting methods, and there are indeed merits. I have a very systematic and comprehensive book in my hand. Ghost Hunting Notes is just right for Xiaoxiao to learn from."

Ji Xiaoxiao became more interested and asked: "Zhanzhan, what level will I reach after I study? Will I be very powerful?"

"At least, it is ten times more powerful than the current Wan Shugao. Under normal circumstances, it is enough to protect oneself." Wu Zhanzhan looked at Wan Shugao and said.

Wan Shugao's face turned red, and he cried out in sorrow: "Uncle Master, why are you making trouble with me?"

Ji Xiaoxiao also took a look at Wan Shugao, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll stay in Maoshan and learn ghost hunting skills. In the future, I will walk the rivers and lakes with Er Miao, and maybe I can help him."

Wu Zhanzhan nodded, looked at Gu Qinglan and asked, "Sister Lan, if you are willing, you can learn together."

"Me?" Gu Qinglan smiled and said, "I won't interfere. Everyone is going to catch ghosts. How can ghosts in the world survive? Leave them a way to live."

Everyone laughed.

"Okay, since it's all decided, I'll go to Hades tonight to retrieve Luzhu's Heavenly Soul, and then set off directly from the mountain city to conquer the four major ghost bandits." Ding Ermiao stood up and said.

Li Qingdong waved his hand and said, "Uncle Ding, it seems you have forgotten something!"

"What's the matter?" Ding Ermiao asked.

Li Qingdong trimmed his beard and smiled: "The fifth day of May is just around the corner. Aren't you and Master Wu going to compete in a martial arts battle to reaffirm the leadership of Maoshan? Have you really forgotten this?"
