Knife splashing

Chapter 145: Luosha
"evildoer!"

Luo Faqing's hair stood on end.

Isn’t this a blood curse? What the hell is this?

Ordinary evil creatures are difficult for ordinary people to see. This is the first time he has encountered such an evil creature that can appear in front of ordinary people.

Although he was shocked, he reacted quickly. The Gangbu changed rapidly, and at the same time he made hand gestures and chanted a spell: "Tianyuan Dongjun, the commander of the army, guards the earth and protects the essence of life... Quick!"

In the blink of an eye, the talisman flew out.

Bang!
A ball of fire exploded, and hot energy surged.

At the same time, Luo Faqing also drew out the peach wood sword behind him, made a gesture with his left hand, and took out a token from his waist.

To his relief, the strange black shadow seemed to be a real shadow and quickly dissipated when illuminated by the fire of the talisman.

"Master, here!"

Before he could react, Mr. Du's frightened voice came from behind him.

Luo Faqing quickly turned his head and found that the black shadows on the ground gathered again and turned into a strange bird, which pounced on the girl on the bed.

"Old bastard, come find me!"

Mr. Du was filled with fear and rage, and he picked up his knife and started slashing.

However, the extremely sharp sword seemed to have cut into the air and simply passed through the black shadow without causing any damage to it.

Fortunately, when the black shadow approached the bed, it was also blocked by the red rope. The copper coins and bells shook together, and several talismans burned with a puff.

The black shadow was blocked and instantly pounced towards Mr. Du again.

"Step aside!"

Luo Faqing pulled Mr. Du behind him and thrust the peach wood sword straight out, right into the black shadow.

But like Mr. Du, the peach wood sword seemed to be inserted in the air, without any hindrance to the strange black shadow.

Luo Faqing was not panicked at all. He made a gesture with the seal in his left hand and lightly knocked it on the back of the peach wood sword.

boom!
The black shadow exploded and disappeared instantly.

However, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, dark shadows gathered in another area of ​​the house.

The commotion here had already alarmed the servants outside, who were ready to rush in with torches, knives, guns, sticks and clubs in hand.

Although they were afraid, Mr. Du was usually very kind to them, so no one felt comfortable hiding at this moment.

Luo Faqing's expression changed drastically, and he roared:
"Don't come in!"

.........

In the darkness, Li Yan suddenly woke up with a palpitation.

Then, shouting was heard in the distance.

After all, he was in someone else's house and the situation was unclear, so he slept with his clothes on. When he heard the noise, he picked up his long knife and rushed out of the room.

His family's Guanshan sword was damaged. Although he had obtained two precious swords from Yao San, he had not yet found a reliable master, so he just found Bing to make up the number.

Rushing out of the room, Sha Lifei and Wang Daoxuan just came out.

"Let's go and have a look!"

Li Yan walked out without hesitation.

After all, this is their job. If they can't do it, they can do it. But if they hide when something goes wrong, they will be laughed at if the news gets out.

Although the Du family's house was large, the two courtyards were not far apart, so it didn't take long for them to reach the courtyard where the accident occurred.

Before he got close, Li Yan's expression changed slightly.

When he first arrived at Du's house during the day, he smelled a strange odor, like something was rotten and smelled foul.

The smell was very light at that time, as if it was there and not there.

But now, it is extremely obvious, as if the smell of the entire house has all gathered together, and it is disgusting to smell.

The courtyard was already in chaos.

When Li Yan walked in and took a look, he gasped.

I saw a black shadow like a big bird, flashing back and forth in the crowd, gathering and dispersing unpredictably. Those who were hit fell headfirst and fainted.

"Oh my god, what the hell is this!"

Sharifei happened to see it and stepped back in fear.

Li Yan's scalp also tingled. This was the first time he had seen such a thing.

Most ghosts are invisible, so how can there be such a visible evil?
Without having time to think, Li Yan immediately concentrated his mind, activated the Three Talents Demon-Suppressing Coin, and was about to rush in.

"Don't!"

Wang Daoxuan quickly stopped him and said in a hurry: "This thing cannot be dealt with by ordinary methods. Go find a rooster."

Li Yan turned around and left without saying a word.

He pinched the Yang Jue to activate his supernatural powers, ran quickly in the Du family mansion, kicked open the door of the kitchen, and carried out the rooster that was to be slaughtered.

When they arrived in front of the courtyard, they saw Sha Lifei protecting Wang Daoxuan, while Luo Faqing in the courtyard had already raised the magic flag upside down and summoned a ghost.

Most of the people in the courtyard were unconscious. The wind was howling, and the torches were swaying, casting flickering shadows on the ground.

Of course, Li Yan was able to detect the location of the evil creature with his supernatural powers. Just as Wang Daoxuan said, ordinary methods were completely useless.

The ghosts and gods summoned by Luo Faqing were extremely powerful, but he dispersed the black shadow time and time again, and the other party always recovered again and again, as if it were immortal.

Wang Daoxuan took the rooster and grabbed its neck twice.

"Oh~oh~"

The rooster was stimulated and crowed loudly.

Swish!
The bird-shaped black shadow in the yard disappeared instantly.

Li Yan looked around with a serious expression.

He could smell the odor of corruption, which then quickly dissipated and spread to the entire Du residence, becoming very faint.

But Wang Daoxuan didn't bother to say more. He threw the rooster aside and said to Luo Faqing urgently, "Quick, fellow Taoist, they have been hit by the evil. Use the Liugeng Talisman to get rid of the evil."

Luo Faqing's face froze, "Six Geng Talisman?"

Wang Daoxuan said in disbelief: "You can't even draw the Liu Geng Talisman?"

Luo Faqing gritted his teeth and said nothing.

Liu Geng Fu certainly knew that this basic talisman was often used by the lowest-level Yin-Yang masters to dispel evil spirits and disasters.

The problem is that this thing is too simple and has little attack power. Normally, they have powerful magic skills and ghosts and gods avoid them, so why would they need this thing?

If I learn it, I'm afraid my fellow disciples will laugh at me.

"Eh!"

Wang Daoxuan was furious and didn't bother to talk nonsense. "This talisman is very simple. I will open the altar right now, and you just follow it!"

"Brother Yan, if you see anyone who looks wrong, knock him out!"

"it is good!"

"Brother Sha, dig the soil in the center of the main hall, make five clay figures, a piece of mulberry wood, and an ounce of licorice, and bury them immediately in front of the old woman's coffin."

"Good Le!"

Sharifei turned and ran.

After finishing the arrangements, Wang Daoxuan seemed to be racing against time. He immediately set up the altar, spit water from his mouth to open the altar, made hand gestures to seal the evil spirits, wrote the Liu Geng talisman, and explained the tricks at the same time.

As he said, Liu Geng Fu is very simple.

Luo Faqing only watched it twice and he had already learned it. His face turned blue and red. He gritted his teeth and started to draw talismans.

Li Yan was even busier. Some of the servants who had fallen down were trembling all over, with dull faces as they climbed up, rolling their eyes, making strange noises, and trying to bite the people around them.

Li Yan knocked them out one by one, and they got up again.

Fortunately, Wang Daoxuan quickly drew out a few Liu Geng Talismans, gave them to him to concentrate and activate, and then stuck them directly on the foreheads of the servants.

After the smell dissipated, people returned to normal.

On the other side, after Luo Faqing got used to it, his speed in drawing talismans was twice as fast as Wang Daoxuan's.

With the combined efforts of the three, all the servants in the yard fell into a deep sleep.

Wang Daoxuan finally breathed a sigh of relief and shook his head, saying, "This thing will only cause more trouble the later we find it. Fortunately, we found it early."

Then, he looked at Luo Faqing next to him and said sincerely: "Daoyou is indeed an elite of the Dharma lineage, much better than me."

Luo Faqing found these words inexplicably harsh.

He was about to curse, but when he saw Wang Daoxuan's honest and calm eyes, he suddenly felt guilty and snorted.

"Master Wang, thank you for your help."

Mr. Du walked over with a pale face and bowed respectfully.

Although he was protected by Luo Faqing and was not attacked, he looked at the mess in the yard, and thought of his grandson whose life or death was uncertain, his granddaughter who was in a coma, and his wife lying in the coffin. He couldn't help but burst into tears. He couldn't hold it in any longer, and knelt on the ground, saying in a trembling voice:
"Master, please save my family."

"Even if I sacrifice my life, it doesn't matter..."

Li Yan also frowned and asked, "Master, what on earth was that just now?"

"Not urgent."

Wang Daoxuan quickly helped Mr. Du up and thought for a moment, "Mr. Du, there are many hidden facts in this matter. Please tell me the truth and don't hide anything."

"I may not be capable enough to solve the problem, but I can still give some ideas."

Mr. Du nodded quickly, "I will tell you the truth!"

…………

"It has been twenty years since this happened..."

Inside the wing room, Mr. Du's face turned pale and he shook his head, saying, "Originally, this was a family scandal and I didn't want to make it public, but I didn't expect it to cause such a disaster."

"My Du family originated from the Jingzhao Du family. Although we have long since fallen into decline, we are still considered wealthy in this area. We are not as rich as the rich, but we are better off than the poor."

"My father was spoiled by my grandfather since he was young. He spent all day hanging out in Chang'an. He had a bad temper and owed a lot of gambling debts. He angered my grandfather to death."

"After he came to power, the family went from bad to worse, and he sold off his property and spent his time in Chang'an, visiting gambling houses and brothels. Every time he came home drunk, he would beat and scold my mother and my brothers."

"Later, one time, he got drunk and wanted to sell the last of his ancestral land. I tried to stop him, and he tried to kill me with a knife. I escaped, but my brother died under his knife..."

"I was so angry that I killed him. Fortunately, my mother helped to cover it up, so the matter was suppressed that year..."

"However, the Du family can no longer hold on."

"Just then, a Feng Shui master came and told me to set up this marrow-dropping scheme, but he had to hide my father in the ancient Zhou tomb, where his soul could not enter the underworld and he would suffer day and night."

"I hated my father so much at the time that I followed his advice and then focused on running the family business, which gradually prospered."

As he spoke, his eyes were full of complexity, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I do not regret this matter. If there is retribution, I am willing to bear it all, just to save the lives of my family!"

Wang Daoxuan frowned, "Mr. Du, didn't that strange man say that the situation of dripping marrow doesn't need to be so tragic?"

Mr. Du was stunned. "What do you mean, Taoist priest?"

Wang Daoxuan described the layout of Di Tian Sui and shook his head, saying, "Such a good situation, you just need to manage it with peace of mind, cultivate virtue and accumulate blessings. Maybe your generation will not change, but in the future generations, it will gradually improve."

"Burying the bones of our ancestors is like walking on a string. If you make a mistake, you will be doomed forever!"

Mr. Du's face turned pale and he looked at Luo Faqing beside him.

Luo Faqing snorted coldly: "Brother, you have already seen it, but you have already done it, how can you turn the tide?"

His face was gloomy, but he felt a little uneasy in his heart.

His most powerful senior brother Yue Fachong did not say anything about this matter. He just said that it could not be solved, and asked him to deal with it casually and then left.

As for the ending of the Du family, there is no need to pay attention to it.

"Ah."

Wang Daoxuan pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "Mr. Du, I'm afraid you've been set up!"

Mr. Du was surprised and asked, "What do you mean?"

Others also became curious.

Wang Daoxuan said in a deep voice: "I have seen the thing just now in the Tang Dynasty's miscellaneous notes "Chaoye Qianzai"."

"In the year of Dazu, there was a village called Zhengjiazhuang in Chishuidian, Taizhou. A man met an evil spirit on the road and entered his home. He was mutilated by it, leaving only his skull and eating the rest. The family broke into the house and saw a large bird in the dark on the beam. It flew out through the door. Some said it was a Rakshasa spirit..."

"Rakshasa?" Luo Faqing frowned.

He was also a disciple of the Dharma lineage, but had never heard of this name. However, what Wang Daoxuan said had a source, and it was extremely similar, which made him unable to refute.

Wang Daoxuan nodded and said, "Yes, there is also something called Rakshasa Bird. I was curious about it at the time, so I asked many old masters of the Jianghu Xuanmen. Finally, I learned about the origin of this creature from an old man of the Yinmen..."

"The Xuanshi Zhi says: After a person dies, a few days later, a bird will come out of the coffin, which is called 'Sha'!"

Luo Faqing was stunned, "Is this a kind of evil spirit?"

"Ah."

Wang Daoxuan's face became solemn. "The old senior said that they called it the shěng god. And the Qingzunlu by Lian Bu of the Song Dynasty said that it was the Yinmāra ​​ghost in Buddhist legends."

"I am a slut who writes about sex and love. I thought this thing was just a rumor. After all, few people have seen it. I didn't expect it to really exist."

Luo Faqing was silent for a moment, "I admire the knowledge of the Taoist priest. Please forgive me if I have offended you before."

Sharifei was immediately delighted, "That's right, it doesn't matter who our Taoist is."

He felt as happy as if he had eaten an ice watermelon in the dog days of summer. He thought that Lord Wang Dao was quiet, but he was very proud at the critical moment.

Mr. Du was uneasy. "I didn't expect there was such an evil thing. Taoist priest, could it be that the man at that time really had evil intentions?"

Wang Daoxuan nodded. "The demon is also called the demon. It will only appear under extreme circumstances."

"Don't you think that this is all too coincidental?"

"There is one more thing I need to confirm."

"Taoist Master, please speak."

"Please open the coffin and perform an autopsy on Madam!"

…………

The fire paper was burning and a group of people gathered around it.

"Ma'am, I'm sorry..."

After lighting three incense sticks, Mr. Du gritted his teeth and said, "Come here, open the coffin and examine the body!"

According to custom, the coffin is not nailed shut immediately after a person dies. Instead, it is placed three feet off the ground with the lid ajar, leaving a gap.

The process of opening the coffin went smoothly. Li Yan did it personally. After opening the old lady's skull and chest, everyone gasped.

His brain and lungs all turned into rotten black water!

"This... Taoist priest, what should I do?"

Mr. Du was furious. He didn't know at that moment that he had fallen into a terrible and vicious scheme that had lasted for twenty years.

Wang Daoxuan sighed, "Mr. Du, please accept my condolences. I'm afraid your grandson is no longer with us."

"This creature is both an evil spirit and a demon. The more people it eats, the harder it will be to deal with. It will feed on your family's blood. If it breaks out of its shell, the consequences will be disastrous."

As he spoke, he looked to the west and said, "According to what that senior said, this thing was born from the accumulated corpse qi, resentment, and evil spirits, and it came out of the coffin."

"If we want to solve it, we can only destroy the tomb and suppress the evil!"
