Chapter 12: Return to the Soul, Heavenly Eyes Open
"The energy of yin and yang that exorcises evil...what is that?" I asked in confusion.
"You have no idea about the art of yin and yang or the way to catch ghosts now, so I don't know how to explain it to you. But you just need to remember one thing, the innate spirit body is a physique that can be encountered but cannot be found.
There haven’t been many of them in recent years!”
The master's dark face was trembling slightly, which was enough to show his excitement.
"But I have lived for more than 20 years, and before I met Mrs. Xue, I had never seen a ghost, nor did I feel that my physique was any different from others?" I asked.
"Everything depends on chance. Maybe when you meet Mrs. Xue, it will be a big opportunity. Oh, by the way, remember to build a monument for her later. Since we promised her, we must do it."
I nodded heavily.
Master smiled and said:
"Today my fortune-telling stall will be open for business. You will stand beside me in a while. Don't ask anything, just listen and watch. When you can see my guests and hear our conversation, then your task for today will be over.
It’s done.”
"Is this difficult?" I asked doubtfully.
"Is it difficult or not? You'll know if you try it."
Master gave a meaningful smile, then put on his mandarin jacket, picked up his folding fan, turned around and walked out of the Hall of Leading Souls, and I hurriedly followed.
It was daytime at this time, and the people who came here to tell fortunes were not living people. I once heard Aunt Liu say that generally, lonely ghosts with shallow spiritual skills would not dare to appear under the sun. Even Mrs. Xue only dared to look under the sun.
Come to me tonight.
Then why do the ghosts who come to Master always come during the day?
I expressed my doubts. Master sat on the wooden chair and took a leisurely sip of tea and said:
"That's a good question. You are right. Ghosts with shallow paths do not dare to appear in the daytime. However, the ghosts who come to me are extraordinary. It is not because they have deep paths, but because they are all in the first seven times.
The ghost of the soul.”
"The first seven?" I asked in surprise.
"That's right, for the first seven souls after a person dies, the ghosts who return are not very resentful and are not particularly afraid of the sun. Under normal circumstances, the souls of the deceased will return home, but some ghosts are confused and have deep obsessions.
If they don’t want to go home, they will come to my place..."
"I will clear up their doubts and resolve their resentments. Those who can be saved will go home and see their families with peace of mind. Those who cannot be saved, I will directly save them!"
Speaking of this, Master's expression suddenly changed,
"Okay, stop chatting and come to life!"
When I heard this, I quickly calmed down and stood upright next to Master. I rolled my eyes back and forth like a fool and carefully observed the deserted coffin street...
At this moment, a gust of cool wind blew past me, and I felt a strange breath coming towards me, and then my whole body tightened, as if I was being stared at by a pair of eyes!
I shook my body subconsciously, trying to get rid of the feeling of being spied on.
After a few seconds, the feeling became weaker and weaker. I lowered my head and glanced at the master, and found that his mouth was opening and talking, but I couldn't hear a word.
I was stunned, then glanced at the empty wooden chair opposite him, and a chill suddenly rose in my heart.
I didn't dare to think any more at the moment. I stared at the wooden chair with my eyes wide open for a long time. My eyes were sore but I still couldn't see anything...
After a while, Master suddenly raised his head and smiled at me:
"How is it? Is it difficult or not?"
"It's too difficult, I can't do it at all." I said a little discouraged.
The master shook his folding fan,
"Think carefully about how you saw the female ghost in white at that time. Don't just think about seeing it with your eyes. You should also experience the changes in the breath in your body..."
After saying that, Master ignored me.
"Aura changes..." I muttered.
I slowly closed my eyes, recalling the scene where I saw the female ghost in white before, and tried to find the feeling of the changes in the breath in my body at that time. As time went by, I seemed to have fallen into trance.
I don’t know how long it took, but I gradually felt that the originally quiet environment around me seemed to become even quieter... A faint voice came into my ears...
"Master, I'm not willing to give in. My children are unfilial. My family doesn't even have a mourning hall. Why do you think I should go back?"
"An account before the Palace of Hell. Your unfilial children will naturally receive the punishment they deserve after they die, so you don't have to keep the resentment in your heart in this life. You can go back to see them in peace and end the fate of this life.
, and then go to reincarnation in a down-to-earth manner..."
Hearing this, I hurriedly opened my eyes and found a person appearing on the empty wooden chair. He was a hunched old man in his seventies or eighties. He was wearing wrinkled clothes and had a face full of wrinkles.
There was no blood on his face, and his spirit was still a little sluggish.
As if he noticed that I was looking at him, the old man suddenly raised his head and looked at me. His empty eyes slowly turned red, and his pale face was covered with a layer of sinister blood!
When he looked at me like this, I suddenly felt a little dry, as if I had done something wrong.
At this moment, the master folded his fan and banged it three times on the wooden table. The old man's body swayed slightly, and the blood in his eyes slowly faded, and he returned to his depressed look.
"The resentment in your body is not dissipated, that's why you are depressed in this daylight. If you want to go back and see your family, you must go back quickly. If you don't want to, then report to the underworld immediately!"
The master's tone was a bit displeased. The old man hesitated for a moment, then stood up and bowed to the master and said:
"Thank you, Archmage, for your enlightenment..."
After saying that, he turned around and left. After walking a few steps, his body gradually disappeared...
Watching his disappearing figure, I murmured:
"Where did he go?"
"Yinsi."
"Then he really doesn't want to go home and see his relatives?" I asked.
The master sighed softly,
"Hey, for some people, relatives may not necessarily be close to each other, so just let them be!"
After a moment of silence, Master patted me on the shoulder.
"Xiao Yu, I didn't expect you to be able to open your heavenly eye so quickly. This shows that you have initially understood the way of luck. The innate spirit body is indeed extraordinary!".
"Master's guidance is better." I said modestly.
"I heard your Aunt Liu say before that you have practiced physical skills since you were a child, and your physical fitness is much stronger than that of ordinary people. Later I will teach you a set of Tiangang Bu footwork and formulas, as well as some simple talismans. You
You have to learn it as soon as possible!”
"Why are you in such a hurry?" I asked doubtfully.
"Hey... we don't have much time." Master said sadly.
"What time is running out?"
"Nothing, don't waste any more time. In a week you need to go to Xu Ting's house alone to deal with the evil spirit!"
