In this world, humans always like to use "demons and ghosts" to describe some non-human existences. It should be said that this is a very accurate description.
Demon, demon, ghost, monster.
It represents four species, among which Mo Chengjun has seen the monster, more than once, but he has only heard of the other three species.
Among them, the one he is most interested in is ghosts!
People die and become ghosts. This is the saying of a novelist in his previous life, but when it comes here, it becomes a reality.
If you say that this is the world of fairy tale, it is normal to have a "ghost" existence, and he can accept it when reading novels.
But now, after coming here, for a scientific researcher like him, he really wants to study it.
In his world, technology was very developed and had entered the interstellar era, but there were almost no results in research on human consciousness.
Why almost it is said?
Because there was such a small experiment that measured the weight of a person's body before and after death, and it was 21 grams lighter.
From this we draw a not-rigorous conclusion that the weight of the soul is 21 grams.
Apart from this, all other research on the soul seems to be stuck in assumptions.
Then, when I got here, a 'ghost' actually appeared!
At some point, after learning about the existence of ghosts, Mo Chengjun actually had a great desire to study. He always wanted to catch a few ghosts and take a look. It would be best to study them.
But where was he before?
Xinghe Sword Sect!
Even if they give these unjust ghosts hundreds of courage, they would not dare to wander under the noses of a group of sword cultivators.
Isn't that asking for death?
Therefore, Mo Chengjun's desire to study has not been satisfied until today.
Originally, Mo Chengjun really didn't want to meddle in other people's business. It was his mission to accumulate energy and find Balinger.
But when he mentioned the "ghost", he couldn't help asking a few more questions.
Mo Chengjun: "How do you know it's a ghost?"
Liu Fu: "Master Yuantong of Hanshan Temple outside the city and Taoist Mingxin from Tongmingguan said so. They said that the ghost is a painted ghost.
He is best at skinning portraits, and can be used to transform into men, women, young and old, and is the most irresistible."
Mo Chengjun was puzzled: "Master Yuantong, Master Mingxin?"
Liu Fu hurriedly explained: "Oh, these two are famous Taoist immortal cultivators in Panlong City. Usually, there is a place in the city that can drive away evil spirits and save the dead souls, and they are all looking for them.
Although they are incomparable to the practitioners on the mountain, these two people are also good at real magic.
Master Yuantong is good at subduing magic wands, and demons can't get in at all; while Master Mingxin has a skill of drawing talismans, which is the most effective way to cure diseases and eliminate monsters."
This is the casual cultivator!
Mo Chengjun was even more strange: "Since you have found them, why didn't you ask them to take action?"
Liu Fu's face was extremely ugly, and his smile was filled with crying: "Of course I found it and spent a lot of money, but they never came out after they entered."
"Oh?!" Mo Chengjun's eyebrows stood and his voice became more serious: "Where is the government? Have you never looked for it?"
Liu Fu's smile was even more ugly: "How could it be that I haven't found it?!
I went to the government office and gave the prefect a thousand taels of silver, and then went to the Demon Slaying Office. I spent another thousand taels of silver. The final result was one sentence."
"What?"
"That ghost is so fierce!!!"
"Ahem..." Mo Chengjun almost choked: "That's it?"
"That's it!"
Well, now, Mo Chengjun can understand why Liu Fu kneeled down and begged, and he is no longer a shameless act.
It's really impossible to be forced.
Mo Chengjun became even more interested. He narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "You also know my affairs. I don't have much time to stay in Panlong City."
Liu Fu showed a look of disappointment on his face, and his whole body seemed to have been drained from his energy.
But the next second, he heard Mo Chengjun speak again: "Tonight, just tonight one night, no matter whether it can be solved or not, I have to leave."
At this moment, Liu Fu experienced despair, and was so ecstatic that the muscles on his face were twitching.
But his ecstasy was still unconcealed: "One night, one night is enough. If an immortal takes action, he must be able to capture it!
Please rest assured, I will definitely offer you a great gift after this matter.”
Mo Chengjun waved his hand: "No need for your great gift. As long as I explain, you can care about it."
"Please rest assured, I am still confident about this. As long as that fairy star appears here, there will inevitably be news.
Tonight, I am sending people to the surrounding towns and will surely return to ensure that everything is safe."
"Okay, arrange a room for me, I have to make some time to prepare. Come and find me again in the evening, early morning."
"Okay, OK, Xiansheng, please come here."
...
The residence arranged by Liu Fu for Mo Chengjun is in the backyard of the grain shop, a very exquisite cottage, which should be where he usually takes lunch after busyness.
When Mo Chengjun arrived, a servant had already replaced the new bedding and sheets, and incense was lit in the room, and a stream of sandalwood filled it, which smelled very pleasant.
After Liu Fu left, Mo Chengjun began to search in his storage bag. He first picked out a thick book, and then found some talismans, utensils, bottles, jars, etc.
This painted skin may be very fierce, but Mo Chengjun has confidence in himself.
If he wanted to kill, under dozens of thunder, the ghost would only turn into gray.
But how to say it?
He wanted to catch a ghost for research and wanted to see what this ghost was, rather than just destroying it.
This is more troublesome than killing directly, so he has to make some preparations first.
After building the foundation, although he did not achieve any major results in scientific research, he developed the magical power "Storm and Clouds and Thunder Method".
Others, whether it is the sword intent or the eye of the Spirit Spring, were all disappointed, and they were nothing.
But it is undeniable that he completed the basic inner courses, knew a lot of common sense things, and had many things to practice.
Although he was still full of doubts and spent several books on the recording, this did not prevent him from copying and using it normally.
For example, now, he is going to get a ghost-capturing bottle first and write a few ghost-capturing talismans, which will be useful at that time.
...
It was already late at night, dark clouds covered the moon, and no light was seen.
On the long street, a group of people walked slowly, holding up a few lanterns shining hazy light, but seemed to be erratic in the night wind.
There was a sound of hooves echoing, and it was very regular, as if it was knocking on people's hearts, making people panic.
"Immortal, Immortal, that, that, or, cough cough, we'll come back tomorrow morning, you can also have a good rest.
This is too, too, too scary!"
At this time, Liu Fu was sitting on a tall horse, with no less than ten guards carrying lanterns around him.
But his body was trembling unstoppable, and even the guards were not much better.
And Mo Chengjun was next to him, riding on the four-eared donkey monster, closing his eyes to meditate.
Before he could reply, a sharp voice suddenly rang out: "Gagahahahahahaha..."
The sound was like a demon, as if it came from all directions, scaring everyone to scatter and flee.
Liu Fu even rolled down from the horse, his legs trembling.
But even though it was like this, the few people didn't make much noise, as if they were afraid of disturbing some terrible monsters.
Mo Chengjun opened his eyes, patted Sier's head under the seat, and said, "Sier, are you scaring them fun?"
The 'rattle' sound came to an abrupt end, and then the cheerful voice of Sier came: "Hehehehe, it's so interesting. Look at them, timid and rats.
Well, I'm insulting the rat demon, but the rat demon is actually quite brave."
As he said this, Sier turned his head and said to Liu Fu: "Old man, don't you know?
To catch ghosts and kill ghosts, you have to be at night and during the day. They are illusory in their bodies. Although they are much weaker, they can directly escape into Yin Earth.
She wanted to run away, but she couldn't catch up.
Wait until we leave again, if she comes back, old man, you will be miserable!"
After all, Liu Fu had some concentration. He saw that it was a donkey monster talking, and he knew that he had been fooled just now.
He looked up slightly, looked at Mo Chengjun, and said, "Well, is there any other statement?"
Mo Chengjun nodded, shook his head again, and said, "It's too troublesome to explain the specific situation to you, so let's hurry up."
To be continued...
