Zuo Dao Becomes a God Starting from American Horror

Chapter 50 Qigong Willow Leaf Golden Knife Blood Curse
The six techniques were displayed one by one, and they were viewed in turn.

Traditional methods: fire basin exorcism, money swallowing, chopstick clamping
Special skills: Qigong, Quegu Qigong Diagram, Willow Leaf Golden Knife Technique, Blood Curse Technique
First, the traditional method.

① The fire basin exorcism method originated from ancient folk customs. People believed that the fire basin represented a sea of ​​fire and a mountain of swords, and was a symbol of difficulties and obstacles. By stepping over it, one could get rid of evil spirits and bad luck. In many places, people even stepped over fire basins when getting married.

This method is correct, but the effect is not strong. It can only drive away evil spirits and some minor bad luck.

Note: Mugwort needs to be burned.

② The method of swallowing money is a slightly evil method that harms people's money. The specific source is unknown. It involves raising a toad that grows up in a dark place, eats human bones, and drinks corpse oil. Then, the target's hair, nails, etc. are fed to the toad. The toad will die immediately, and in the next three days, the target will lose a huge amount of money.

In ancient times, it was a means used by some folk wizards to punish and deter those who did not believe in them.

Note: This method will cause you to lose a certain amount of wealth, which will harm others and yourself.

③ The chopstick pinching method, whose full name is the red chopstick pinching finger method to exorcise ghosts. In ancient times, it was believed that fingers were closely related to various parts of the human body and the heaven and earth, especially the middle finger, which was the connection between man and the heaven and earth. The red chopsticks, with red color, upper part and lower round, symbolically represent the yin and yang of heaven and earth. Therefore, pinching the second section of the middle finger can break the connection and pinch out ghosts, evil spirits, etc. from the body.

This is a popular folk method used by Taoist priests, ordinary people, etc., and there is no distinction between good and evil.

Note: If the dirt is too strong and you are on guard, forcibly removing it may cause harm to the possessed person.

After reading the three traditional methods, Louis stroked his chin in thought.

He felt that these three folk methods were quite good, especially the fire basin exorcism method and the chopstick method, which could actually drive away the possession state. He remembered that in many foreign horror movies, once possessed, it was difficult to deal with it. Now with this, it worked.

As for the method of swallowing money, it is actually a good way to harm others, but it is of no use to him. He is rich himself, and if he wants to harm others, he will not lose his own wealth, so it is a bit useless.

However, these were just appetizers.

Now, onto the next big meal.

①Qigong·Quegu Qigong Diagram
Qigong is a traditional exercise method for health preservation, but its origins are actually from the ancient Neidan Dao and the ancient Qigong practice. It was later modified, combined and simplified to become an excellent foundation-building method.

Because it is widely circulated and useful for both good and evil purposes, it is included in the folk code.

After further reforms in modern times, there are now many different categories, with a mix of good and bad, and varying qualifications. Some focus on external skills, granting invulnerability and immense strength, while others focus on foundation-building, extending lifespan and being suitable for cultivation...

This Qigong is the original practice, a pure foundation-building method, and has better effects!
Getting started can strengthen your body, becoming proficient can prevent all diseases and increase your strength, and mastery can generate internal energy, which will allow you to embark on a path that is different from that of ordinary people.

Looking at the detailed description, Louis' eyes lit up. Is this... the fundamental law?

No, it is just a tiny part of the fundamental Dharma.

The true fundamental law is far more powerful than this.

But even so, Louis couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

Finally, finally!

Finally something to strengthen my body!

The folk remedies I have been given so far have not been very effective, either scaring away ghosts or opening locks. If I really have to face a powerful one, I'm afraid I can only run away.

Oh, no, fire magic is still quite useful, but if used too much or too strongly, it will consume your yang energy and even your lifespan!
Now, with this, I don’t need to worry about the side effects of wasting my life.

"Huh~ I finally touched upon something core."

Louis carefully examined the Qigong again before turning his attention to the other two unusual techniques.

② Willow Leaf Golden Knife Technique

This is the technique to kill ghosts!
Willow branches have been known to ward off ghosts since ancient times, and willow leaves, when used in a specific way, can even kill ghosts directly. Take a new, tender willow leaf from a shady location, place it in your hand, write a command on it, and blow on it three times. Concentrate your mind while blowing. Only if you can blow the leaf away on the third blow, your intention is strong enough, and the leaf will fly out, killing the ghost or human spirit you wish to slay.

This technique also has different levels: entry-level, proficient, and mastery.

Anyone can use it after getting started, and its effectiveness is relatively weak.

As you become proficient in it, its power increases but the energy and spirit required increase. If you use it too many times at a time, you will get a splitting headache and even affect your mind.

Mastery can only be achieved after formally starting to practice and cultivating the Yin Spirit, thus unleashing the full power of this technique.

③ Blood Curse
A terrifying, cruel and evil spell.

It also originated from the folk, but different from the folk magic, this technique was originally closely related to the White Lotus Sect and other evil sects. Later, it was combined with the witchcraft in Lingnan, and finally formed this blood curse technique.

This technique is both a spell and a cursed treasure.

It is necessary to collect a large amount of blood to practice blood essence, and then use the human body as a nest for the worms. A living person is best, and a corpse is second. The stronger the body, the better. Then, use talisman paper with spells written on it to cover the corpse, seal the seven orifices of the face, and let countless corpse worms absorb the blood essence in the corpse to grow stronger, bite, and kill each other. The corpse will become an empty skin, and the last corpse worm will turn into a blood-colored ball like jade.

This blood ball is the blood curse, which can curse and kill the object in front of you. The stronger the individual is, the more blood it consumes until it is completely consumed.

Note 1: This blood cell cannot be replenished and can only be retrained; because the process is so cruel, the user may be disturbed by inner demons and in danger of being hunted down by the righteous!

Note 2: The advanced method of this technique is contained in the Left Path chapter.

……

Looking at these two spells, Louis fell silent.

The killing...is a bit heavy!

One is a technique to kill ghosts and destroy souls, the other is a technique to cast bloody curses.

None of them are easy to get along with.

Just by reading the introduction, Louis could imagine how terrifying the people who used these spells were.

It can be said to be killing people invisibly.

These two techniques also revealed to Louis some of the dangers of the real evil path.

Is this the evil way?

No wonder it is so close to evil ways, some of the techniques there are indeed cruel and brutal.

However, I like it.

Louis raised the corner of his mouth slightly.

In this area where drug addicts, murderers and perverts are rampant, it is very suitable.

Besides, there won’t be any righteous people in this place who will come out to punish me, right?
Then there's nothing to worry about.

"Traditional techniques and strange techniques are different. One is a foundation-building technique, one is a ghost-killing technique, and one is a curse-killing technique. They are much stronger than traditional techniques."

"I just don't know how long it will take to master it."

Looking at these three unusual skills, Louis felt that he would have to focus on them for a long time to come.
