Becoming a Taoist Master by Walking on the Underworld

Chapter 1: Spiritual Warning
Human beings are very magical individuals. They are usually ignorant, but in certain circumstances, they can be extremely sensitive.

Some things can be noticed even if you are thousands of miles away and cannot see them with your own eyes.

It's like you're walking down the street normally, and suddenly you sense danger, and then you quickly dodge a vase falling from the sky.

For example, you just walked out of the house, but you always feel uneasy, so you hurried back home and found that the firewood has not been extinguished and is continuing to spread. If you don’t deal with it, a fire is inevitable.

Even if a loved one dies suddenly, even if you are far away from home, you will feel grief in a moment of trance...

All kinds of.

They are all spiritual warnings.

Some can be avoided, but for others, you can only watch them happen.

And at this time.

Chen Yushu also triggered this spiritual warning.

In his sleep, he felt someone beside him.

This is a creepy thing.

Silently, a person stood beside him, not speaking, not moving, just standing there silently, looking at him...

This is so scary and makes people feel creepy.

"who is it?
Or, that person from a few days ago?"

Chen Yushu was horrified.

He has had this feeling for more than one day.

In fact, he had this feeling three days ago, the first day he came to this strange world.

At that time, he had just traveled through time, or rather, his memory had awakened. He had vaguely accepted the fact that he had traveled through time and space and was reborn in this small mountain village that looked like ancient China, and had become a child of about ten years old.

Then he felt a palpitation and woke up suddenly. At that time, he also felt that there was someone beside his bed.

However, when I turned around, there was no one there, and there was no shadow under the clear moonlight. But the feeling of there being someone there persisted until it gradually disappeared after a while.

The next day, too.

Even though there was no one around, there was always a biting chill reminding him that there really were people there.

This is so creepy.

At that time, he had already called out in his mind the names of all the gods, demons and Buddhas that he could remember.

Now is the third day.

No matter how confused he was, he understood it now.

I'm in trouble now.

Got entangled!

Thinking of this, his scalp tingled.

This world is not the materialistic world of the previous life. Everything is about science and evidence... As a new generation of young people who lie down and do nothing, he has never believed in these things. But even so, legends about ghosts and monsters are heard everywhere. Once all kinds of mysterious things happen, there will always be people who enjoy discussing and arguing about them.

"what to do?
What should I do?

Chen Yushu was at a loss, his heart pounding.

My heart moved subconsciously, and a line of subtitles popped up in front of my eyes.

Name: Chen Yushu
Age: twelve years old
skill:
Reading: literacy (21/100), calligraphy: self-definition (27/100)
……

This is what he discovered after he woke up.

He was indeed very surprised at first.

Although there are only two skills, they give him infinite confidence.

Then, he encountered a ghost.

And obvious.

This thing is of no help to my current situation.

So he became even more confused.

And he didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that the cold chill emanating from that 'thing' was much stronger than yesterday.

just like.

Is it getting stronger?

"We can't sit still and wait for death."

Chen Yushu's eyes trembled and he opened them slightly, but the fear in his heart made him dare not face that direction directly. He only glanced at it sideways with the corner of his eye.

no one?

The room was not dark.

The white moon shone through the window into the room, allowing him to vaguely see the furnishings in the house.

There is a cabinet and a window. The cabinet is a bamboo cabinet, which is a bit low. It can be used as a bookcase or a table. The window is a large square window with a few horizontal beams in the middle and covered with white paper. However, the white paper has long been exposed to wind and rain, and has several large holes in it. Through the holes, you can see a small tree outside the yard.

The floor was made of compacted mud. Although it was a little uneven, it was compacted very tightly. There was a small chair next to it, with a piece of clothing on it. It was a short jacket made of coarse cloth, gray-black in color, and with two obvious patches of different colors on it, sewn with fine needles, so it didn't look ugly.

Everything is clearly visible.

However, there was no 'person' as he imagined.

Nothing.

It seems as if it does not exist.

But, 'it' is still there.

That feeling of thorns in the back is extremely clear.

'It', right there.

Didn't move at all.

And she was looking straight at him, as if observing some kind of beauty, or "delicious food".

Chen Yushu's heart sank, and a feeling of great fear came over him.

But at this moment, he felt that 'it' beside him also moved.

It seemed to have been absorbing something from a distance, or perhaps it was his "essence", and it was slowly becoming more condensed.

Then, he could "see" the other person. A vague human figure gradually emerged.

'It', has revealed itself.

Although it was blurry, he looked at it out of the corner of his eye and it wasn't clear.

But it is so real.

Then, he felt a growing chill all around him. Goose bumps appeared all over his body and he became stiff. He was so frightened that he couldn't move at all.

Then, he watched helplessly as the figure leaned forward, put one hand forward, and stepped onto the edge of the bed with one foot. He was actually already on the bed, and then moved his body...

Is it pressed down?
Boom!Boom!Boom!
Chen Yushu's heart was beating violently, as if he was drowned in water, suffocating and unable to breathe.

He struggled violently in his heart, trying hard to control his hands and feet.

But it was of no avail. It was like a wall collapsing and no matter how hard he tried to break free, he couldn't move it at all.

"Be bold!"

Just at this moment, a low shout was heard.

Then there was a bang, and the door was forced open. Then a figure rushed over quickly, holding a bell in one hand and shaking it vigorously. Then, with the other hand, he casually swung a whip and lashed it forward fiercely!
"what……"

Chen Yushu heard a terrified scream, and a strong cold wind swept over, blowing clearly on his face, making him shiver.

Then he felt that he had regained control of his body, and that gloomy aura was no longer there.

"Uncle Zhong?"

Only then did Chen Yushu see who was coming and looked surprised.

Uncle Zhong is also a villager. He is said to be very capable. Occasionally, he would tell people ghost stories and his experiences when he was young under a big tree at the entrance of the village. Therefore, he is very popular among the children in the village.

Yesterday he heard that the other party had returned, and wanted to join in the fun and talk about the problems he had encountered. However, he was called away as soon as they met.

Given the current situation, could it be that the other party had already seen something before?
"Yushu, Yushu, are you okay?"

Then, a beautiful woman walked in from outside the door, rushed over and hugged Chen Yushu.

Behind the woman, a tall and thin man also looked nervous, but did not speak.

These two people are Chen Yushu’s parents, Chen Baihe and Zhao Hehua.

"Dad, Mom, I'm fine."

Chen Yushu shook his head, then set his eyes on Uncle Zhong, feeling curious.

What happened just now?

With the ringing of a bell and the cracking of a whip, the 'ghost' will disperse?
Is this martial arts? Or something else?
"Don't worry, it's just a little ghost. It's not very powerful and can't cause much harm. In fact, as long as you are a little brave, I think it won't be able to do anything to you."

Uncle Zhong thought he was still a little scared, so he laughed and said comfortingly.

"Why don't you thank Uncle Zhong quickly?

I say you are such a silly kid. You didn’t even tell us about such a big thing as encountering a ghost.

If Uncle Zhong hadn't noticed something was wrong with you and told us, who knows what would have happened. "

Zhao Hehua muttered to herself and couldn't help but slap him on the butt a few times. The movements looked big, but the impact was light.

“Thank you, Uncle Zhong.

"Uncle Zhong, what did you use just now? Can it kill ghosts?"

He asked with a curious look on his face.

"This is an old bell. It has become somewhat spiritual over time. It has a certain restraining effect on this thing. When my bell rings, it gets scared. This thing is not very powerful to begin with, and once it gets scared, most of its soul is scattered. If it is whipped by my willow whip, won't it be scattered as well?"

Uncle Zhong explained with a smile, and continued, "In fact, it's the same for humans. Humans are three parts afraid of ghosts, and ghosts are seven parts afraid of humans. This ghost must have been pestering you for a few days. It dares to pester you because you are afraid. When you are almost sucked dry, your life will be gone."

"Then what should we do?"

Zhao Hehua, who was standing by, was shocked when she heard this.

“Don’t worry, now that this thing has dispersed, it certainly can’t harm anyone.

Moreover, if this kind of little devil wants to harm someone's life, it needs to absorb it for at least seven consecutive days. With this amount of time, it would have been discovered long ago, and naturally people would think of finding someone to get rid of it."

Uncle Zhong smiled and comforted him.

"Can I learn this skill from you?"

Chen Yushu also understood at this time that the little devil who was pestering him was not very powerful.

But the feeling of being helpless in the face of the invasion of ghosts is too confusing and helpless.

He naturally didn't want that.

It was obvious that Uncle Zhong was a capable man, at least he could get rid of ghosts, so he had the courage to speak.

If you can learn this skill to exorcise ghosts, even if you can't do anything you want, at least you can save your life.

"Learn from me?

This is not much of a skill on my part; I have only mastered some basic principles.

But you can’t teach people.”

As he said that, he also shook his head.

If he really had some great abilities, he would not have stayed in Beijiao Village. It was only because of the tricks he learned when he was young, the principles he understood, and the experience he accumulated over time that he had a certain status in the village and could preside over some red and white ceremonies.

Such cases of encountering evil spirits are actually rare.

Of course, if he really encounters one, as long as the enemy is not that strong, he can deal with it with his "experience".

Especially when it comes to funerals, if you don't understand them, it's easy for something to go wrong, so they also have their own set of theories, such as who is suitable for burial and who must be cremated, the burial direction, the time of burial, and avoiding the sun and the shade.

Otherwise, it may turn into a disaster if you are not careful and affect future generations.
