In the afternoon of that day, Liu Hou took Shen Fan back to Spring City overnight.
Fortunately, the two places are not far apart and can be reached by car in just over an hour.
He led Shen Fan to Taiyi Gate and asked his uncles to open an altar for him to perform rituals.
This ritual is very famous.
It’s called Ghost Three Passes.
The first pass is called Guimen Pass.
The first level is Huangquan Road.
The third pass is Wangxiang Terrace.
Liu Hou was relieved when four real people presided over the rituals at Gui San Pass.
He hoped that through the Three Ghost Passes, he could temporarily alleviate Shen Fan's state of disappearing.
When Uncle Nianri saw Shen Fan brought in by Liu Hou, he also took a breath of cold air.
The masters and uncles have never seen a human whose three fires and sense of presence are so low.
But because it was Liu Hou's order, the four uncles agreed to open the altar for the ritual ceremony.
But I am not confident about the effect.
Pass through three levels of ghosts.
The reason is to deceive ghosts.
As for whether there are ghosts in the world, Liu Hou doesn't think there are.
But this is the Taoism passed down from our ancestors, and it must have its reason.
Shen Fan was blindfolded and led by Liu Hou to a bench.
A large-crested Dapeng chicken is tied to the bench, full of vitality and high-spirited.
"Bear the pain."
Liu Hou said calmly, pulled out a knife and stabbed Shen Fan's fingertip.
A drop of bright red blood flowed out.
Liu Hou caught it in a bowl again, followed the example of a gourd and a gourd, and also made a shallow wound on the chicken's neck.
The chicken blood flowed into the bowl and blended with Shen Fan's blood.
Just now, the big rooster, the big rooster, suddenly stopped.
Eyes dull.
The uncles wielded their mahogany swords, pierced a yellow talisman, and lit it on the candle.
The candle was immediately lit.
The big red rooster started moving again like a puppet, circling along the bench in the center of the altar.
Liu Hou pulled a thread and connected Shen Fan and the rooster.
The rooster walked forward, and Shen Fan also moved forward.
Keep going around the bench, around and around.
When he passed through the gate of hell, the rooster crowed twice, and his eyes suddenly became pitch black.
When crossing Huangquan Road, the red crown on the big rooster's head drooped, and its majesty was no longer there.
The moment he passed the Wangxiang Terrace, the rooster suddenly screamed.
Liu Hou had just lightly cut a bloody wound, and suddenly a large amount of blood spurted out.
The wounds are getting bigger and bigger.
Not long after, the entire chicken's head seemed to have been severed by an invisible sword.
The head fell to the ground.
The big headless red rooster jumped on the spot a few times and ran around for a while, then fell to the ground and died.
"He can take off his blindfold."
After finishing the religious ceremony, the four uncles were already dripping with sweat.
Tired to the point of panting.
Uncle Nianri breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the ritual was a success.
After hearing the words, Shen Fan pulled off his blindfold in a daze and closed his eyes for a long time. When he came into contact with the light, his pupils contracted.
Liu Hou patted him on the shoulder: "How do you feel?"
Shen Fan felt for himself for a moment and was immediately overjoyed: "I seem to be much better and not so weak anymore. What's going on?"
He even felt that he was back to the healthy state before his existence was erased.
"Am I okay?"
Shen Fan caught Liu Hou in surprise and asked.
Liu Hou shook his head: "Don't be too happy. The spells cast by several of my uncles only temporarily suppressed the curse of your continuous loss of existence.
But it doesn't stop it for long.
If within fifteen days, the reason why your existence has been wiped out cannot be found out and the curse can be lifted.
You, too, will die."
After hearing Liu Hou's explanation, Shen Fan was so frightened that he knelt down again: "Ah, it turns out that I can only live for fifteen more days! Daochang Liu, you have to save me."
"I accepted your commission and will definitely do my best."
Liu Hou sighed secretly, always feeling that he might have encountered a difficult task again.
But as Uncle Nianri said, everything has a cause and effect, and everything you encounter is caused by fate. If you always pick the hard and the easy, you are destined to have no future.
How can we grow without the determination to face difficulties?
If you're afraid of a hammer, just do it and it's over.
What's more, the commission fee this time is a full five hundred thousand.
Shen Fan was able to get such a large amount of money because he sold all his houses to get it together.
This man's desire to survive is quite strong.
"Shen Fan, please book two train tickets to Guacheng tonight, and we will rush there overnight."
Liu Hou ordered: "I'll prepare some things and let's meet at the train station."
Shen Fan was stunned.
Knowing that I can't escape, I still have to go back to my hometown.
I was immediately filled with emotions.
People who have been away from home for a long time will miss their hometown.
Shen Fan is no exception.
When he mentioned home, he felt homesick.
"According to the season, my potato flowers should have bloomed by now, and they are white and beautiful. In about twenty days, we can dig potatoes.
I remember that at this time, with the potato harvest, many potato harvesters would go to our village.
When I was young, those merchants would bring many snacks that were difficult for us to eat."
Shen Fan took out his mobile phone and while buying a train ticket back to his hometown, he kept mumbling: "I think, the wheat yellow apricots on the apricot tree in my small courtyard have also begun to bear fruit. Although now It's still very sour to eat.
But every time, grandpa would pick the green wheat yellow apricots and brew them into wine.
That apricot wine is just right to drink during the Chinese New Year, and it tastes wonderful."
Once homesickness starts, it will never stop.
It jumped up to Shen Fan's limbs and veins, and up to his eye sockets.
Shen Fan couldn't wait to go back right away.
He missed his grandfather and his grandfather's apricot wine.
"Come to my house and I'll treat you to my apricot wine."
Shen Fan bought the train ticket and said generously to Liu Hou.
"Okay, I will definitely try it."
Liu Hou smiled.
The two of them went down the mountain and prepared to split up.
Just when Shen Fan turned around, Liu Hou suddenly looked horrified, as if he had seen something incredible.
He reached out and grabbed Shen Fan's shoulders.
"What's wrong?"
Shen Fan turned around in shock and asked in confusion.
"nothing."
Liu Hou looked gloomy, shook his head, and then shook off Shen Fan's hand.
The whole person fell into deep thought and did not speak again.
His heart was already in turmoil.
What's going on?
Just at that moment, Shen Fan's body seemed to undergo some terrifying changes.
Shen Fan's sense of existence, which was clearly sealed by the Three Ghost Passes, began to slowly disappear again.
Although not as fast as before.
But it is also constantly being lost.
Perhaps in less than seven days, Shen Fan will completely disappear from the world and everyone's memory.
Weird!
What is it that causes rituals to fail so quickly?
What's even weirder is that just when Liu Hou slapped Shen Fan on the shoulder.
Shen Fan's sense of presence that was rapidly disappearing was no longer lost.
It's like the ghost three levels that the masters and uncles used on him, and he regained control!
Liu Hou suddenly shuddered.
He could only think of one possibility.
This is probably a warning.
But who is this warning warning?
It was impossible for Shen Fan himself to know that something had just wiped out part of his sense of existence.
Since he doesn't know it himself, what's the point of warning?
Could it be that I wasn't warning him.
Liu Hou suddenly felt a chill running down his spine.
Maybe the person being warned is himself?
Someone or something evil is warning Liu Hou to stop meddling in his own business!
