Becoming a Taoist Master by Walking on the Underworld

Chapter 115: The pile-posting method is in hand, the coffin at the door

Chen Yushu glanced at it, nodded, and said, "Silver is correct.

It's about that exchange meeting. Can you tell me more about it? Who will be there and what preparations are needed?"

Chen Yushu was still looking forward to that exchange meeting.

Apart from anything else, just the talisman paper, talisman pens and talisman ink, he also hoped to purchase some from this exchange meeting.

After all, the main items sold in Old Fu's incense shop were incense, yellow paper, talisman paper and the like. They only had the lowest-grade pleated paper. As for the more advanced ones, Chen Yushu also asked, but they were not available at all.

If you want it, you can only go to the county or even further to place an order. If the order quantity does not reach a certain level, the other party is too lazy to make a special trip.

Chen Yushu was also somewhat helpless about this.

Although he expressed his willingness to buy, Lao Fu also said that it would take some time, ranging from three to five days to ten days to half a month.

Therefore, he placed his hopes on this exchange meeting.

After all, if he wanted to draw more golden armor talismans, as well as the ice arrow talismans and weapon armor talismans, he would have to use more advanced talisman paper.

"This time, it is an exchange meeting led by Duobao Store in Tianhe County and organized by Taoist Guangyi. As far as I know, there will be many people from the sect who will be present.

In addition to Master Zhou who has recently become famous, there is also the iron-hearted and divine Wang Yi, both of whom are experts in Tianhe County and even Linchuan County.

In addition, there are the Three Heroes of Lingxia who have recently emerged. By the way, it is said that people from Qingsong Temple near our Jianghuan Town will also be present.

This exchange meeting should also be for everyone to trade and get what they need.

In addition, it is estimated that it may also be related to the planning of this century-old tomb.

I don’t know much about the specific situation, although a few people have approached me and wanted to explore it with me.

But I know my own business. If I really die, I won’t even know how I died.”

Shi Hao first explained, then shook his head repeatedly.

Although he has now become a disciple of the immortal, his abilities are still very low.

He can deal with ordinary ghosts.

He had no idea where the century-old tomb was, where evil spirits had been hiding for years.

"That's true."

Chen Yushu nodded. Even if it was him, he would not have thought of getting involved in this mess if Zhao Yufeng and others hadn't mentioned it.

However, there were people who went to the Qingfeng Temple mentioned by the other party, which inexplicably reminded him of the Taoist Master Ma.

The strength of that Taoist priest Ma is not weak.

Sanzhuxiang's Taoist practice is one of the best in the entire Jianghuan Town.

And given the friendship between the other party and his master, if he really encounters any danger on this trip, perhaps he can ask him for help?
……

Soon, Shi Hao left.

Chen Yushu pondered silently and quickly went out.

However, he was not heading to the pharmacy.

Instead, he turned around, went to the next door and knocked on the door.

Soon, the door opened, revealing a slightly sturdy figure. It was his neighbor, Qin Chuan, and behind him stood his son Qinfen.

The two men were holding things in their hands and looked like they were about to go out.

"It's Brother Chen, what's the matter?"

The other party looked at Chen Yushu in surprise and asked quickly.

"Brother Qin, this is the case. I have something to ask and would like to talk to your boss. Would it be convenient for you to introduce me to him?"

Chen Yushu bowed and then asked.

"Looking for our boss?

Why? "

Qin Chuan was stunned and asked curiously.

"It's not a big deal, actually. I'm just a little curious about the method your class leader used last time. First, I want to ask about it, and second, I also want to learn from him."

Chen Yushu did not hide anything and spoke frankly.

“It’s impossible for the class owner to teach this.

This is his specialty.

Even we don’t know anything, and we can’t even ask.

By the way, once when he was performing outside, someone even offered him 100 taels of silver, but the troupe owner didn’t teach him.

Qin Chuan quickly shook his head and spoke.

“I know it’s hard, but you just have to take me through it and I’ll figure it out.

If your class teacher really doesn't want to teach you, I won't force you to do so."

Chen Yushu also knew that it was almost impossible to get people to teach him special skills just by talking, but he still wanted to give it a try.

"I'll just take you there, but I can't guarantee it will work."

Hearing this, Qin Chuan just nodded and said, "It just so happens that tomorrow is the big market, and we also need to go there to discuss some programs, so let's go together."

"Thank you, Brother Qin."

Chen Yushu nodded quickly.

Soon, the group went out.

Their opera troupe is located on West Street, which is also the area where the old Fuxiang shop is located.

Of course, a little more remote is an old residential area with a large courtyard where three houses are connected.

There were many children in the yard practicing basic skills.

Be it lion dancing, stacking bowls in the air, or climbing bamboo on the open ground...all of them have quite skilled techniques, but of course there are some who don't do so well.

There was a special master next to him holding a ruler, and if he didn't do it well, he would be beaten.

Some people's palms and backs of their hands were beaten red, but no one dared to cry and could only hold it in, because if they cried, they would be punished again and would have to go hungry.

For many children, the punishment of hunger is worse than anything else.

Chen Yushu just watched, but he didn't feel any pity.

Because, this is the way the world is.

These people are relatively good, as they can learn some acrobatics, master a skill, and make a living.

There are many who cannot afford to support themselves and can only leave them to fend for themselves. Begging on the streets always has new faces every once in a while.

Did he leave because he couldn't get any food?

Chen Yushu shook his head.

Because he knew that many of them either died of illness, starved to death, or were abducted... their fates were unfortunate and there were very few good endings.

He was incapable of sympathizing with others.

He was just an apprentice in a drug store before. Although he became a little successful later, he was not a saint and could only take care of his own business.

"Boss, someone is looking for you."

Then, Qin Chuan took Chen Yushu and went directly to the back of the yard.

Soon, Chen Yushu saw their class leader, Zuo Yinzhi, Class Leader Zuo.

"I don't know who you are?"

Class Leader Zuo looked at Chen Yushu and asked curiously.

"Boss, this is my neighbor, Brother Chen, Chen Yushu.

Because I saw your performance last time and was very curious, so I came here specifically to ask you something."

Qin Chuan stood aside and quickly explained.

"You want to learn?"

Zuo Yinzhi looked at Chen Yushu, frowned and asked.

"Yes!
I wonder if Mr. Zuo is willing to teach?"

Chen Yushu nodded honestly.

"You should go back. This skill is what I make a living with. I can't teach it to others."

The left class leader waved his hand, looking like he didn't want to talk. As he spoke, he looked at Qin Chuan and said, "Don't bring people like this who want to ask about skills here in the future.

It’s easy to lose your job.”

Qin Chuan blushed, but he couldn't refuse because they were neighbors.

“The posting method can be performed by ordinary people.

But all skills require a price.

Those who are in the know can use the way to resist.

But ordinary people have no spiritual power, so they can only use life and lifespan as a medium.

Each time it is used, one year of life span is reduced.

I wonder how many years of life can be reduced for the boss?"

Chen Yushu suddenly spoke, then looked to the left and said, "So that's how it is. Raising a ghost can only reduce your lifespan by half, but it's just a drop in the bucket.

Not to mention, ghosts can backfire.

Are you sure you can still hold it down?

By then, it won’t just be you who will be victimized, your family and the entire troupe will become its bloody food.”

Qin Chuan, who was standing by, was stunned. He didn't know what Chen Yushu meant.

But the face of Zuo Yinzhi's Zuo Banzhu suddenly changed. He stared at Chen Yushu with wide eyes and said, "You... who are you?"

"It just happens that I have some understanding of the class master's technique."

Chen Yushu was silent for a while and said.

"Qin Chuan, you go out first.

I want to talk to this brother Chen alone."

Shift Leader Zuo's face was uncertain, and he spoke quickly, treating Chen Yushu in a much more serious manner.

Qin Chuan was confused, but he was an honest man, so he just nodded and walked out.

“Brother Chen.

Do you also know this method of posting?"

Class leader Zuo asked hurriedly.

"I don't understand.

But I happen to have some knowledge of this technique.

Each time the anchoring technique is performed, it is necessary to anchor an object as a substitute before performing the technique, so that the caster can withstand severe attacks.

But there is a price to pay for casting this spell.

The attacks from others cannot disappear out of thin air; they need something to replace them and to withstand them.

But now it seems that you have chosen a ghost to cooperate with, and let it help you bear the responsibility.

But as a price, you need to give up your life, that is, your lifespan.

Half a year at a time. From what I understand, you have performed this technique at least 70 or 80 times, if not a hundred times... Is your life enough to pay for it?"

He shook his head first, then spoke again.

If it were before, he really didn't know much about this technique.

But it just so happened that he saw the description of this method of sending piles in Ningjing Academy.

Although there is no specific method of performing the treatment, it explains the principles and some of the effects of the treatment.

Among them, it is said that some people cast spells by raising ghosts.

Although it can reduce some of the consumption, ghosts will not help for free.

You must get something from the other person.

Vitality, spirit, lifespan... these are all things that ghosts need.

Then he saw a ghost in the house of Mr. Zuo.

That's a little devil.

He looks like just a chubby kid, but surprisingly, he already has the Red Evil on him.

In other words, this is a fierce ghost.

To be able to raise it into a fierce ghost, one can imagine that Master Zuo had cast a lot of spells on it, and he must have lost a lot of his life.

But he was a little surprised that the other party was still alive.

"Please help me, sir."

Class Leader Zuo’s face turned pale, and he quickly said, “I have no choice.

The opera troupe needs to eat. There are so many people in the troupe and they all need to eat. No one will buy into the ordinary odd jobs or performances.

It just so happened that when I was young, my master noticed me and taught me this skill.

But this method was too dangerous, so I didn’t dare to use it. Later, I had no choice but to use it. The response was very good, and I made money. I forgot about the dangers.

During festivals, at large and small fairs, in every village and town, performances need to be put on.

What people value is my unique skill.

Gradually, even I couldn’t remember how many times I used it.

It wasn't until a while ago when I saw it starting to bother the people in the team that I panicked. I remembered what my master said: this thing should be used less, otherwise if it got out of control, the entire team would be finished.

Unfortunately, it is too late for me to realize now, it has already become a reality.

I had previously spent a lot of money to hire someone, a witch, to do something with it, but the witch was scared away. Later, I hired several more people, but none of them could do anything to it, and it started to become more and more aggressive towards the people in the team.

Xiaotian, who was performing with me before, was originally a strong young man, but in just a few days, he became as thin as a bamboo pole. I was really scared..."

"Teach me the technique, and I will help you solve this problem."

Chen Yushu spoke directly.

As for what the other party said, he did not comment.

Maybe the other party knew the dangers from the beginning, but some things, once started, cannot be stopped.

As for why the class owner is still fine now, Chen Yushu understood it just by looking at the look in the little boy's eyes when he looked at the class owner.

Tiger poison does not eat children.

Of course, this son will have feelings for his father.

Even ghosts have certain memories of their original bodies.

The other party is the boss of the Zuo class and has already endured a lot.

But the more it endures, the heavier the evil spirit will be.

Later, it was not that it didn't want to bear it, but that it could no longer bear it.

Since he couldn't bear to attack Zuo Banzhu, he could only attack other people in the troupe.

When he passed by before, he found that, except for Xiaotian, the complexion of many people in the yard was much worse than that of ordinary people.

Even Qin Chuan and his son, who lived outside, looked a little depressed.

Before, he thought that the other party was mentally exhausted and did not get enough rest.

Now it seems that it is all related to this thing.

It knows how to share the love and kindness equally.

Maybe it was because he grew up in the troupe and had feelings for these people? That's why he didn't catch anyone and that's why no one has died in the troupe until now?
"This……"

Upon hearing this, Class Leader Zuo hesitated slightly.

“I am reluctant to use the posting method.

Still can't bear to part with it, you devilish child?"

Seeing this, Chen Yushu asked directly.

"You, did you see that?"

The left class leader showed an embarrassed look on his face, and then he said hesitantly, "This is my child after all. Even if he turns into a ghost, I don't want him to be beaten to death..."

"Either your entire troupe dies together, or it dies, it's your choice?
But by that time, of course, someone from the Underworld Suppression Department will handle it, and it won’t be my turn.”

Chen Yushu shrugged and said.

"Then, please let Mr. Chen take action..."

Upon hearing this, Class Leader Zuo gritted his teeth.

Chen Yushu nodded and said, "Don't worry, it is inevitable that we will take action.

But we also have a way to help the dead.

If its soul is still alive at the end, I will naturally pray for its soul to be reborn.”

Chen Yushu finally said something comforting.

"it is good!

This is how to perform the posting method. I am here."

Mr. Zuo nodded, hesitated for a moment, and took out a book from the room.

Chen Yushu took the opportunity to flip through it and finished reading the contents in no time.

The method of pinning a stake is actually not that difficult to perform. The really difficult part is finding something to pin it on.

It could be a ghost, a spirit, or some monster.

The reason why Mr. Zuo chose ghosts was because he actually recorded a method of refining ghosts, called "The Art of Raising Ghosts with Essence and Blood", and the method of performing the spell was also very simple.

On the seventh day after the ghost's death, blood is used as a lure to induce the ghost to suck blood, and naturally, the ghost can be made to stay. Then, blood sacrifices are made at regular intervals, and naturally, you can "see" the ghost you have raised. You can also use the ghost to perform the technique of posting a stake.

And this ghost refining is the foundation of his ability to master this method of posting a stake.

After Chen Yushu confirmed that everything was correct, he looked at the little ghost covered in blood.

It stood quietly in a corner, watching them from afar, without making a sound or saying a word.

Until this moment, Chen Yushu looked at it, and it seemed to react. Chen Yushu could "see" it, so it spoke for the first time, "Are you also hired by my father to deal with me?"

As it spoke, a hint of ferocity immediately flashed in its eyes.

Chen Yushu raised his eyebrows.

Because, he heard it.

Hear what it says.

This was the first time that I heard the voice of a ghost without going through any spiritual practice.

Always be still!

Is it because of Chang Ding’s reasons?

Chen Yushu reacted quickly.

When he was in a state of constant concentration, he was always in a state of "super-dimensionality", and this super-dimensionality included entering into a state of concentration and also walking in the Yin state.

Therefore, he does not need to go to the underworld to hear the voice of ghosts and can communicate with them freely.

“You heard it, didn’t you?
Do you choose to surrender and be saved by me, or do you want to fight?"

Chen Yushu said calmly.

The left class leader standing by had a look of horror on his face, realizing that Chen Yushu was talking to the little ghost, but he didn't dare to move at this time, and just leaned quietly aside.

"By you?"

The little ghost screamed, a red light flashed on his body, and he rushed towards Chen Yushu at an astonishing speed.

Chen Yushu's expression remained unchanged, but he quickly pressed his hands forward.

boom!
The evil ghost that had just rushed over was immediately knocked to the ground.

Then Chen Yushu stepped forward quickly and swung the Soul-Breaking Ruler in his hand forward.

"what……"

A scream suddenly rang out.

The sound was not made by the little devil, but by the boss Zuo.

He fell to the ground with a look of pain on his face.

"Um?

The posting method?"

Chen Yushu's face changed.

Unexpectedly, this little ghost had used magic in advance, and it was the magic of posting a stake that he had just seen.

Perhaps because it had been exposed to it for a long time, it directly learned this technique and used it to transfer its own harm to Master Zuo.

However, before, he would have been somewhat helpless against this method.

After all, if he attacks the little ghost, the attack will immediately transfer to the head of Class Leader Zuo, which will be very difficult to deal with.

But now, he took seven steps, and the earth's energy rolled, sweeping towards it quickly.

Seven Star Steps!
seal up!
Immediately, it was sealed tightly around it, trapping it in space.

This is one of the solutions to the posting method.

You just need to isolate the two so that the breath cannot flow, then the method of posting a stake will naturally lose its effect.

Then, Chen Yushu stretched out his hand and pressed down hard.

The secret to warding off evil!

zizi...

Suddenly, a stream of evil spirit was forced out of the little ghost.

On the other side, Class Leader Zuo also recovered a little at this time. Being very familiar with the post-control technique, he naturally understood that he was the little ghost he raised, and he also used the post-control technique. While his face looked grim, he immediately took action.

I saw him quickly bite his finger, and then bite his forehead.

Suddenly.

He felt his mind relax, and the technique of holding the stake was broken.

The blood spot between the eyebrows is because of the method of sending a stake, which connects the spirit with it.

The center of the eyebrows is a person's spiritual connection point.

If it is sealed with blood, the natural post-stack method cannot be activated.

"what……"

The imp roared.

After struggling violently, he finally broke free from Chen Yushu's Seven Star Step restraints, then rushed towards a wooden wall.

Ghost magic! Walk through walls!
This is also the reason why ghosts are extremely difficult to deal with.

Once it passes through a wall, if it hides deliberately, it will be difficult to catch it for a while.

But Chen Yushu was well prepared for this.

With a wave of his hand, talismans flew out and stuck tightly to the wall.

It is the talisman to ward off evil spirits!
sizzle...

Suddenly, the little ghost bumped into something as if it had hit a solid object and couldn't get through.

Then Chen Yushu used the Fuyin Jue again.

boom!
The little ghost was pressed directly to the ground.

Soul-breaking Ruler, Evil-removing Technique...

"what……"

Under the explosion of terrifying power, most of the evil spirit on the little ghost dissipated instantly, but taking advantage of the weakening of the power of Fu Yin Jue, it leaped again and rushed to the side of Master Zuo, and even crouched down and possessed him directly.

Then the left class leader, with a ferocious look on his face, rushed towards Chen Yushu quickly.

In response, Chen Yushu stretched out his hand, patted and pulled, and then grabbed Zuo Banzhu's body, and quickly patted him with his other hand.

He then pasted a ghost-killing talisman on the body of the left class leader.

laugh!
The little ghost was directly blown away by the terrifying power of the ghost-killing talisman.

Then he threw out another talisman and hit it directly.

boom!
Thunder rises from the void.

All the evil spirit in its body was instantly destroyed, and its soul was made almost transparent, and then dissipated with the wind.

Snapped!
A small, rectangular object also appeared on the ground.

Chen Yushu walked closer and saw something that looked like a bone.

A little disappointed.

Because he knew that this was Yin bone, Yin bone jade.

It is a kind of ghost, something that has a certain probability of condensing.

Fortunately, this thing is also a good thing for making talisman paper and talisman ink, and should be worth some silver, so he took it away.

"Is it dead?"

At this time, Class Leader Zuo stood up a little confused, looked at Chen Yushu and asked.

“I have helped it to transcend.”

Chen Yushu was silent for a while and then spoke.

For evil spirits.

Death is a kind of liberation, and it can be considered as a way to help it to be liberated.

After an incense stick of time, Chen Yushu left the opera troupe compound and happened to pass by Lao Fu's incense shop. He was suddenly stunned.

Because he noticed that there was suddenly a coffin at the door of Lao Fuxiang Shop.

The coffin is not big, but it is filled with yin energy.

There were obviously people living inside.
