Chapter Five Candles
Qian Yunsheng sat at the bow of the boat, and the sea revealed its gentle and charming side.
Under the stars in the sky, the blue sea water reflects the transparent seabed like a fairyland.
He sat cross-legged and did not move, with a soul-sucking banner inserted behind him and silently chanting the mantra.
Just yesterday, they finally arrived near Blue Moon Bay. The old captain stopped the boat and gave him a small boat to carry it, allowing him to travel all the way to Blue Moon Bay.
The sky is extremely charming today. The candle he wants to catch is extremely timid, and he likes to appear at such a time. Therefore, Qian Yunsheng stopped the boat and began to prepare.
The only purpose of things like Zhuyin is to confuse people's hearts. They like to confuse the minds of the crew when a boat passes by, and then let the crew voluntarily jump into the sea and die, and then take the souls of these crews for food.
Therefore, if it were not recorded on the scroll, almost no one knew the purpose of this little thing.
Zhuyin is extremely difficult to catch. They are very brave and escape very quickly. In addition, they have no great value, so they have not caught the eyes of humans at all.
But Qian Yunsheng knew that Zhuyin likes to eat Yin souls, so it has the effect of "soul-restraining". There is a soul in his soul-catching banner that urgently needs to be stabilized. Therefore, since there is news about Zhuyin, Qian Yunsheng must come here specifically.
For others, catching Zhuyin is a very difficult job. But for Qian Yunsheng, it is much easier.
He sat silently on the boat and released most of the souls in the soul-catching banner into the sky. After making all preparations, he took out two ghosts from the soul-catching banner and crushed them into the water.
According to the records on the scroll, this candle is particularly sensitive to negative effects.
Therefore, Qian Yunsheng first waved the soul in the soul-catching banner in the air, which increased the concentration of the yin energy in this place. Then he threw a few crushed souls. In this way, just like a fisherman sprinkled a bait, he just waited quietly for the candle to take the hook.
A stick of incense has passed...
Two incense sticks have passed...
Three incense sticks have passed...
Qian Yunsheng sat quietly at the bow of the boat, not in a hurry. The candle was particularly timid. Maybe they had already arrived nearby and were still watching.
Therefore, he took out two ghosts from the soul-catching banner and crushed them into the water again.
After three more incense sticks, there was still no movement.
Qian Yunsheng took a deep breath. It seemed that this little thing was really difficult to deal with. It was probably because of his existence that made them doubtful and dared not come over.
But this did not make him difficult. He smiled slightly, penetrated his consciousness into his subconscious, and closed all the six consciousnesses. In an instant, it seemed as if he and the entire ship were integrated into one and turned into an object on the ship.
Qian Yunsheng's thoughts fell into his heart. He temporarily let go of the troubles outside and began to concentrate on visualizing himself.
He remembered that his reckless and rash behavior when he was offering sacrifices before, which made him fall into an extremely terrifying world.
In that world he seemed to be able to do whatever he wanted, but soon this feeling of doing whatever he wanted was knocked down by a kind of physical feedback.
It was this incident that inspired Qian Yunsheng that allowed him to close the six consciousnesses so smoothly and break the connection between his body and soul.
Unlike the peace feeling now, Qian Yunsheng felt a feeling of horror at that time.
It was as if the states of turning hands to clouds and rain when offering sacrifices were causing some of the most terrifying changes in one's body.
It's like the consciousness is locked in a cage that you can't live without. You know clearly what's going on in your body, but you just yell and can't get out.
At that moment, I began to regret it.
Obviously, it was the mistake that happened in the sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial stimulation that led to the current situation. And this clearly felt change was slowly squeezing my body by some strange force.
This kind of squeezing begins with the stomach. The twisting of the stomach firmly squeezes everything stored in it and slowly pushes out.
Then there were other organs. The juice in these organs was like a machine that was put into a pressing machine, squeezed into the flattest and largest, and then almost no drop of juice was left and crushed out.
Even with such squeezing, these mixed with the sticky and messy things in the stomach and the juice in the organs were stirred together, and they wanted to emerge from their chest and mouth...
Qian Yunsheng was recalling the feeling of closing the six consciousnesses for the first time when he suddenly saw a slight fluctuation from the Soul-Surveying Banner. Only he and the Soul-Surveying Banner could share this feeling.
With the help of the soul-catching banner, Qian Yunsheng saw a small group of white, glowing transparent little things emerging from the sea. These little things were only the size of a thumb, one by one, one next to the other, and were curiously observing him from afar.
He smiled slightly, and it seemed that these little things were really timid. He had done this, but they were still hesitating.
Fortunately, patience is one of Qian Yunsheng's good qualities. While maintaining contact with the soul-catching banner, he continues to visualize patiently.
The feeling of being squeezed before was very similar to the feeling of catching lees when he was a child. He thought of his experience of catching lees when he was a child.
At that time, for Qian Yunsheng, who had to roll his pants and work on the ground, but was not full at all, there was such a kind of parasite-like dregs in the world that could desperately suck up the small amount of blood from others into his body and make his body swollen and unable to move.
These lees are particularly like those rich families who are staring at their own land rent, who are as uncontributive, but also insatiable.
Therefore, as the most hated being, whenever you see it, you will first slap them violently, and then use your two fingers to clamp them while they are frightened and fall.
Then, I would squeeze out every inch of juice from beginning to end, hard, without leaving any trace of it.
Therefore, when he began to feel this feeling of being squeezed, Qian Yunsheng immediately thought of the feeling of being crushed by his bones and squeezed out the spinal cord from it.
In the soul-catching banner, the pictures in the distance appeared again.
This time these little things started to act. Under the wonderful night wind, these little things floated over like wandering elfs. First they landed around the boat, greedily sucking the wandering yin energy that was crushed by Qian Yunsheng's soul.
But soon, these little things were not satisfied. They were like petals of blown dandelions, floating from the sea with the sea breeze and gradually pounced on the boat, and some even fell on Qian Yunsheng.
He smiled slightly, but still didn't take action.
Perhaps it is difficult for others to capture Zhuyin. But for Qian Yunsheng, it has become much easier because of the existence of the Soul-Surveying Banner.
Just like now, as Zhuyin confirmed that there was no danger, they all poked their heads out of the sea and gathered towards the soul-catching banner little by little.
This is also Qian Yunsheng’s plan. There is a lot of yin energy in the soul-catching banner, and he deliberately let the soul-catching banner release the breath. Therefore, as long as the candle shade comes around, it is impossible not to be attracted by the soul-catching banner.
The bold Zhuyin jumped to his body and even the soul-catching banner, but there were still many Zhuyin watching in the distance, and he needed more Zhuyin to get closer.
Therefore, he continued to calm down and don’t worry, he told himself that it is actually not difficult to capture Zhuyin. The most important thing is that he must have enough patience.
If Qian Yunsheng started it now, even though he had gathered so many Zhuyin around him, he might only be one-third of the ones caught by him in the end. Therefore, it is extremely important to maintain patience.
Qian Yunsheng simply continued to think about the process of sacrifice and distracted his energy. In this way, he would not pay much attention to the situation outside, but time might pass faster.
He remembered what happened at the end of the sacrifice.
At that time, he felt that everything was about to end. He began to wonder if people could only see the beautiful pictures that they had never seen before when they died.
In another second, maybe in a moment, you will die.
Maybe several years later, or even not so long, in a few months, people will find a ridiculous corpse, which can no longer be called the existence of the corpse. It may be a ball of meat or something, dying sadly at the altar he had arranged by himself.
This meaningless way of death may not even splash a ripple in anyone's heart.
The most charitable words Qian Yunsheng could think of were probably: "Look at that stupid guy who overestimated himself, he didn't know what taboo things he was trying, but he ended up killing himself."
"Hungry...you want to eat...hungry...you want to eat..."
Just when Qian Yunsheng was about to give up, a clear voice came in. His eyes were broken like a mirage, and his consciousness immediately returned to his body.
On the altar in front of me, all the offerings went in vain, reminding me that it was definitely not a dream just now.
The whole body was not hurt at all, which made Qian Yunsheng feel that there was no difference between him and his dream.
The soul-catching banner was also inserted behind me, and the message of "hungry" was unconsciously heard.
Qianyun breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly, his body stiffened.
A spike of cramps came from the empty stomach, reminding me that I had to think seriously whether the pain of being crushed and the feeling of being crushed out of the stomach juice had actually happened.
Just as I finished this, another clear message came from the Soul-Surveying Banner.
He smiled slightly. It was the connection he established with the soul-catching banner that he had made twice the result with half the effort in capturing the candlelight.
The last disaster was not completely useless, otherwise I would not be able to establish such a magical connection with the Soul-Surveying Banner.
He suddenly woke up and completely retreated from the six consciousnesses.
Just now, they were lying on the soul-catching banner and the candlesticks on the boat, and they flew up like butterflies.
Qian Yunsheng laughed, and a huge suction force first came from the soul-catching banner, which suddenly sucked the candle shades lying on the banner. The wandering souls on the outside also surrounded the candle shades that had not yet escaped, like a net.
Then he took out a storage bag and, with the help of the flying souls, he put these small things into the storage bag one by one.
Qian Yunsheng, who had been busy for an hour, finally finished the work, twisted the storage bag and nodded with satisfaction.
