death

Chapter 25
I couldn't help being surprised when I heard Grandpa Mai's words, and then I kept winking at Grandpa Mai to make him change his mind.

But Grandpa Mai ignored me at all, and asked the office where the accident happened to Principal Ma.

Principal Ma pointed to a staff dormitory building and said, "It's over there, the room on the far right on the first floor."

Grandpa Mai nodded, and walked over there quickly with Principal Ma.

I just stood there and didn't move, because I didn't know how to make a move. With my ability, if I really encountered a ghost, it would probably only be cannon fodder.

Mai Xiaorou walked up to me at this time and took my arm and said, "Chen Yu, don't worry, haven't you opened the soul-inducing altar, after a while, prepare some things, and then you open the soul-inducing altar again, Draw that ghost out, and then you use this talisman to trap it, ask about its grievances, and then consider how to deal with it."

Speaking of which, Mai Xiaorou gave me a talisman, and I asked what kind of talisman it was and how to use it.

Mai Xiaojudao: "This is the soul-binding talisman, which is specially used to capture ghosts. In fact, there is another kind of soul-gathering talisman that can also be used, but you are a novice. If you use the soul-gathering talisman, you may not be able to control it well, because the soul-gathering talisman The talisman only gathers ghosts and does not have strong binding power, but the talisman does little damage to ghosts. On the contrary, the soul-binding talisman has strong binding power, but it also does great damage to ghosts. As for how to use this soul-binding talisman, you Just follow your own breathing method, use your breath to feel the spiritual power on the talisman, resonate with it, and then throw it at the ghost you want to capture."

After saying this, Mai Xiaorou added another sentence: "The general method of using active function talismans is the same, such as soul-binding talisman, soul-gathering talisman, etc., while passive talismans are generally only carried with you. It will be opened by itself, such as peace talisman, evil spirit talisman, etc."

I wanted to say something more, but Mai Xiaorou pulled me forward and said, "Hurry up, Grandpa and Principal Ma are already there."

When I walked all the way, I had already started to adjust my breath, and then used my breath to perceive the surrounding situation. When I stood in front of that office, I immediately felt a chilly air appearing in the aura around me.

Principal Ma stood at the door of the office. Grandpa Mai had already entered the office, but he didn't do anything after entering, he just turned around and came out again.

And through the induction of breath, I vaguely felt that there was a Yin Qi slowly wriggling inside.

After having this feeling, I couldn't help but "Hey", Mai Xiaorou smiled at me and said: "Did you feel it too, yes, your ability to adjust breath has improved a lot, after this mission , my grandfather will teach you some Taoism and some simple talisman drawing techniques, you should learn it seriously."

I nodded and said "yes", Grandpa Mai called me and said, "Chen Yu, go find a table and set up a Buddhist altar at this door."

I looked around and asked Principal Ma where there is a desk. Principal Ma pointed to the office where the accident happened and said, "There is it there!"

I hesitated for a moment, and walked in bravely. Of course, I could always feel the breath around me. The squirming Yin Qi kept huddling in the corner of a single bed, seeming to be afraid of me.

I glanced at the corner of the bed a few times, but I couldn't see the trace of the ghost with my naked eyes for the time being, so I could only feel it with my breath.

I moved a four-legged desk, and I didn't dare to delay inside, so I hurried to the door to set up the desk.

Grandpa Mai took out the incense burner, candlesticks, and joss sticks from the backpack he carried with him for my use.

On the other hand, Mai Xiaorou took out a few apples and steamed buns from her backpack and placed them on the altar, and then said to me: "Chen Yu, this time we will raise the difficulty of opening the spirit altar, so we don't need blood from your fingertips. Instead, use things as tributes, so that it will be more difficult to gather the surrounding Qi, because the fingertip blood and tongue tip blood of people who practice the Tao are often composed of blood essence, and each use will consume some essence, which will have some impact on the practice. Therefore, unless it is absolutely necessary, cultivators will not use fingertip blood or tongue blood, of course, for ordinary people, don’t worry about it.”

I nodded, and asked Mai Xiaorou if "sacrifice with blood" in the last few formulas of Mai Xiaorou's soul-inducing altar should be changed to "sacrifice with apple steamed buns".

With a "poof", Mai Xiaorou couldn't help laughing.

Grandpa Mai glared at Mai Xiaorou, and then said to me: "You don't need to go into so much detail, just say 'a ceremony'. The aura of heaven and earth, the most important thing is sincerity."

I nodded a few times next to me, and then gave Mai Xiaorou a blank look, and she also stopped smiling and said to me: "Chen Yu, you are so funny, there are few tributes today, if I put a table for you Tribute, why don't you come up with the name of the dish."

Principal Ma looked at the side with some hesitation and said, "Is this little gentleman presiding over a religious ceremony for the first time?"

Grandpa Mai shook his head and said, "Strictly speaking, it's the second time. You don't have to be nervous. It's enough to let him do this kind of small thing. I'll watch from the side, so there won't be any accidents."

Seeing that Grandpa Mai is so confident, Principal Ma's worries are not so serious.

At this moment, several teachers came out of their respective offices, and they surrounded Principal Ma and asked what they were doing.

Principal Ma said: "Chasing ghosts, let's speak in a low voice, so as not to affect Mr. Xiao's spellcasting."

Those teachers also quickly lowered their voices.

I didn't delay any more, after lighting all the joss sticks, I sensed the breath around me again, and then I began to cast spells according to the footwork, hand formulas, and oral formulas that Mai Xiaorou gave me.

I don't know if it's because my breath adjustment practice has improved significantly in recent days. I obviously feel that the gathering of breath around this time is much easier than when I first opened the soul altar.

"The majestic my way, the venerable, the disciple Chen Yu, sacrificed it with rites, as urgent as a law, attracting souls to the altar—— Qi!"

As I shouted anxiously, the soul-inducing altar was opened directly, and the range was several times larger than the first time I opened the soul-inducing altar.

I also vaguely felt that the Snake King Pendant on my chest was slightly warming up, which transmitted the heat to my body, and then turned it into the breath of my whole body for my use.

In this way, I didn't fall to the ground because of the weakness of Kaiyin Soul Altar like last time.

After the altar was opened, I suddenly remembered that I didn't have a basin of clean water and fire ashes ready, so I asked Mai Xiaorou if I was ready.

She said: "No, last time I didn't carry a talisman with me, so I used that method to replace it. Now that you have a talisman, you don't have to go a long way, just use a talisman, and there is no certain way to do that. Daoxing, you can't control it."

I nodded, and then sensed the location of the ghost in that office through the breath emanating from the spirit altar, and she was still huddled in the corner of the bed.

Then the breath in the spirit altar rolled towards the ghost in the corner, and the ghost involuntarily floated towards my altar, and when it walked out of the door, I saw its true nature Allow.

It is a petite female ghost, wearing a red nightgown, with fluffy hair, pale face, and a faint yellow body color. If I guess correctly, this ghost is just a yellow leaf ghost. The black shadow ghost of the body is slightly inferior.

Thinking of this, I feel a little more relaxed.

Because Mai Xiaorou told me later that white-clothed ghosts are afraid of people, and they hide from people when they see them, which is nothing to be afraid of; while yellow-leaf ghosts are also afraid of people, but they are more courageous at night and use their voices to scare people. Apart from scaring people, the Yellow Leaf Ghost has no other means to hurt people, because her own yin energy is not strong enough to compete with people, if she hurts people's body recklessly, she will be hurt by yang energy.

Of course, for some people who are physically weak and have extremely weak yang energy, the yellow leaf ghost can also go to their bodies, this is not absolute.

The black shadow ghosts are more powerful, they will take the initiative to hurt people, and they will even kill people's bodies.

The red ghosts and green ghosts that go further up are even more powerful.

After the ghost saw me, it yelled at me. I have to say that although I knew that she had no ability to hurt people, I was still taken aback when I heard that voice.

Principal Ma and several teachers were in the soul-inducing altar, and they could see the ghost with the help of the altar, so they also collectively exclaimed.

Grandpa Mai said angrily at the side: "Be quiet, if you are afraid, stand behind me!"

Hearing what Grandpa Mai said, those few people covered their mouths and hid behind Grandpa Mai.

Mai Xiaorou reminded me to use the soul-binding talisman immediately.

I quickly got lucky and used my breath to perceive the spiritual power fluctuations on the talisman. Soon I felt the power contained in the talisman. Then he threw the talisman at the female ghost.

"boom!"

The talisman directly turned into a ball of flames in mid-air, and the flames quickly elongated, and then formed a fiery snake to wrap around the female ghost.

The female ghost originally wanted to hide, but her speed was much slower than that of the fire snake. The fire snake directly tied her up and sent it back to my altar.

The scene just now was like a dream, I couldn't believe it, I did all of this, it was like magic.

I couldn't help but get excited.

But as soon as I got excited, the soul-inducing altar became a little unstable, and the held flames began to sway left and right, as if it would go out at any moment.

Mai Xiaorou quickly reminded me: "Chen Yu, don't be frightened, adjust your breath, calm down, ask questions quickly, don't waste all your work!"

I did so immediately, and the swinging candle was able to stabilize.

Taking a deep breath, I looked at the female ghost and said, "Who is your name, what is your grievance that prevents you from entering reincarnation, tell the truth, if not, you will be killed!"

Well, I'm still a little bit lost.
