Becoming a Taoist Master by Walking on the Underworld
Chapter 6: Ancestors Have Spirits
Chapter 6: Ancestors Have Spirits
Then, he thought of what the other party had said before on the wooden bridge in the village.
The fish is coming out.
Considering the current situation, what the other party said at the beginning should not be groundless. She really saw something.
However, this seemed meaningless to what they had experienced on this trip.
Because the ghost seemed to have discovered at this time that someone could see him, so he immediately looked in the direction of Chen Yushu.
Then, it stood up, facing the direction of Chen Yushu, and stood on the coffin, as if it was about to come out of the coffin and walk towards Chen Yushu.
It took a step and stepped directly on the head of a coffin bearer, then took a second step and stood on the shoulder of another person.
Almost instantly, the energy and blood in the two men's bodies decreased drastically, and they both felt extremely heavy. One of them even felt his feet loosen and he was about to fall.
Then, Chen Yushu saw it squatting slightly, as if it was going to jump out from the two people.
"save……"
Chen Yushu took a step back, his face changed drastically, and was about to ask for help when he suddenly saw that the "ghost" seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying, and suddenly jumped back at a faster speed and lay directly back in the coffin.
At this moment, Uncle Zhong, who was at the front, seemed to sense something. He turned around quickly, then walked quickly to the two coffin bearers, supported them slightly, and asked, "Are you okay?"
"fine!"
"Just now I felt a loss of strength in my legs, and my legs felt a little weak."
The two of them said.
"That's good."
Uncle Zhong nodded, also looked at the coffin, then took the willow whip and whipped it across the coffin.
After seeing that there was nothing unusual, he said, "Okay, nothing happened, let's continue on our way."
The sounds of music and wailing began again, and the funeral procession set off again.
"Just now, what happened?"
Even after the funeral procession had gone far away, Chen Yushu still looked frightened.
That was really scary just now.
If I let the ghost pounce on me, God knows what will happen.
But why did it suddenly retreat?
It's like encountering some kind of natural enemy.
Are you afraid that Uncle Zhong will take action?
Or... Chen Yushu couldn't help but look at Liu Qiaoer behind him.
But at this time, she was lowering her head, walking silently with the group, and there was no sign of anything unusual.
As for the others, they were completely unaware of the ghost's appearance and were just chatting about family matters.
“No matter what, this Liu Qiaoer is definitely not simple.
She can also see ghosts, which should be what Uncle Zhong said before, a person with enough spirit, who has the qualifications to inherit that "doorway". "
Chen Yushu thought about it, but couldn't resist his curiosity. He slowed down his pace, approached her and said, "You saw it just now, too, right?"
"what?
what? "
Liu Qiaoer looked at him in confusion and asked, "What did you see?"
That look was too sincere and pure, like a clear spring, which made people subconsciously ignore the pockmarks on her face. It also made him unable to judge whether the other party really saw the "ghost" like he did.
While she was hesitating, her mother Liu stepped forward, pulled her aside, and said, "Xiao Yushu, my Qiaowa has been unlucky since she was a child, you'd better not get too close to her, otherwise it will be bad if she gets infected with bad luck." Hearing the voice from this side, Chen Baihe hurriedly said, "Yushu, come here."
And pulled him to the front.
There was a kind neighbor who looked at the Liu mother and daughter behind him with disdain, and whispered to him not to get too close to them, otherwise he would easily get into trouble.
Someone next to him nodded seriously, as if he really meant it.
Chen Yushu was suddenly filled with doubts.
But it’s not a good time to ask any further questions.
Because even though the neighbor's voice was low, he was not deaf and would definitely have heard it...
So, the group continued on their journey.
Before I knew it, an ancient city came into view in the distance.
Jianghuan Town!
The morning sun shone from their direction onto the ancient city, illuminating it with a golden hue. In addition to the ancient and towering city walls, one could also see buildings rising one after another.
Of course, in addition to the buildings, there is also a wide and continuous water surface. On the water surface, there are many ships, some large and some small. The big ones are full of cargo, weighing hundreds of tons, and the small ones are just one person and one pole, like a bamboo raft, sliding on the water...
"We've arrived at Jianghuan Town."
Someone said something, and everyone's pace obviously quickened a lot.
There were two government soldiers guarding the town's gate.
Although Jianghuan Town is a small town, people need to pay taxes when entering or leaving, one cent per person. If you carry goods, you need to pay taxes according to the price.
The group from Beijiao Village was represented by the hunter Chen Ping, who paid a total of 15 cents, which was 3 cents for Chen Yushu and his son.
In this way, they successfully entered the town.
After arriving here, the Beijiao Village group agreed on the return time and then separated. Everyone had their own things to do. Chen Yushu also followed his father and walked towards the Liu family pharmacy.
On the way, Chen Yushu couldn't help but ask, "Father, why do people in the village say that Liu Qiao'er is unknown? Why are they so secretive about her family?"
"Because her family destroyed the ancestral hall of our Beijiao Village."
Chen Baihe hesitated for a while, and then spoke after feeling that there was nothing to hide.
"what?"
Chen Yushu was stunned.
If he remembered correctly, the ancestral hall of Beijiao Village was still in good condition. He had passed by there when he left the village before. The building was at least a hundred years old, and there was no sign of damage.
“Although the ancestral hall is still there today, the ‘spirits’ inside are gone.
There are some, but they are only the 'spirits' that have moved in over the past ten years, and they can't even provide shelter to the villagers.
It can be said that the fundamental reason why you are entangled by the little ghost is that the ancestral hall in our village has no "spirit", so those lonely ghosts dare to enter the village openly."
As he spoke, Chen Baihe's face was filled with resentment.
In this world, every village has its own ancestral hall, where the elders of the village are enshrined.
During every festival, the village would arrange for people to enter the ancestral hall to burn incense and worship.
It is also a custom.
It is worth mentioning that in this world with "ghosts", ancestors will really protect their descendants.
The ancestors have "spirits", so they can naturally protect the people in the village, ward off disasters for them, and prevent their descendants from dying young.
For example, if a child in the village falls into the water and is about to drown, he may suddenly feel a force under his feet supporting him and he floats up again; or if a branch breaks when he is climbing a tree and he falls down, he may suddenly feel his body lighten and he gets up without any injuries...it is often the spirits of his ancestors who are protecting him.
