At about 11.50 in the middle of the night, Lao Zhangtou woke up the four people who were sleeping in a daze, and said to Li Chen and Zhang Xinyu: "It's almost time, you two take your things and go to the gathering place immediately. Remember,
After you have finished placing your things, light the candles one by one on the way back. No matter what happens later when you come back, don’t look back, otherwise you may not be able to come back. Do you understand?”
The two of them were still a little confused at first, but after hearing what Lao Zhangtou said, they immediately woke up and walked out shivering with their things. As soon as they reached the door, they heard Lao Zhangtou shout again: "Also, put on your shoes."
Don't wear shoes after taking them off, as this will reduce the effect of the soul-inducing path.
Zhang Xinyu said with some displeasure: "Uncle Zhang, can you walk with bare feet? Then you have to prick your feet?"
Lao Zhang's eyes widened and he said: "If I tell you to go barefoot, then go barefoot. What are you talking about? Life is important, feet are important?"
Zhang Xinyu knew that he was now living under someone else's roof and could only do whatever he was asked to do. He reluctantly muttered: "Okay, okay, if you don't want to wear it, don't wear it."
As soon as he walked out of the door, Li Chen felt that something was wrong. He felt as if a mysterious force had enveloped him. He felt very uncomfortable, and even his breathing was somewhat blocked.
Zhang Xinyu also said at this time: "Why is it so dark tonight, Chenzi? I can't even see your face clearly."
Li Chen raised his head and looked up at the sky. He unexpectedly found that the sky was as dark as if it was dyed with ink, and there was no light at all. In the past, even in cloudy weather, the moonlight would faintly shine through, but today there was no light at all.
If it weren't for the lights inside the house, it would be almost impossible to see outside!
Li Chen remembered that there was a page in the final chapter of "The Secret Book of Folk Magic" that said that if a powerful demon appears, resentment in the world will rise to the sky and cover the sky. If no one can destroy the demon,
, then the world will fall into boundless darkness forever.
Although the female ghost has existed for thousands of years, she is just a ghost after all, and cannot cause resentment to rise to the sky. Li Chen felt that something was not good, and hurriedly pulled Zhang Xinyu back to the house.
When Lao Zhang saw that the two of them had returned, he quickly asked: "I asked you why you are back again. You missed the time and waited for the female ghost to come out. It was too late to do it."
Li Chen said: "Uncle Zhang, go and have a look. I don't know what's going on outside. The black clouds have blocked the sky. Isn't something big going to happen?"
Lao Zhangtou walked out of the house and looked at the sky. Sure enough, he found that it was just as Li Chen said. He quickly stretched out his hand and counted with his fingers. He was shocked and said: "No, you lured the thousand-year-old female ghost here and used it to kill you."
The magnetic field of this generation in Shulin Village has undergone extreme changes. It seems that the lonely souls and wild ghosts in the mass graves are about to come out!" As soon as Old Zhangtou finished speaking, everyone heard the faint sounds of countless ghosts crying and wolf howling.
Sent!
"The clouds cover the sun and the unjust ghosts cry! It seems that we don't have much time left. You two should quickly set up the 'soul attracting way' and lure all the lonely ghosts to me to eliminate them together. Otherwise, all the ghosts in the village will be killed."
People are in danger!" Old Zhangtou said and looked at the clock on the wall: "It's 12 o'clock in two minutes, go quickly, don't delay."
After hearing this, Li Chen and Zhang Xinyu hurriedly took their things and ran to the well. Lao Zhangtou also hurriedly walked into the house, and saw him hooking a small Eight Immortals table with his feet and placing three sea bowls in them.
Fill the bowls with black rice, white rice and yellow rice, and then insert three sticks of incense into each bowl.
His movements are very neat. If you look carefully, you will find that each of his movements has certain details and is very particular. For example, when he holds the incense, his right hand is on top, his left hand is on the bottom, and his little finger is at the bottom.
Even lighting incense has a unified gesture.
While doing this, Lao Zhangtou shouted to Zhao Liang: "Xiao Liangzi, go to the outhouse and get the painting hanging on the wall and the bottle of wine on the stove. Hurry up!" Zhao Liang did not dare to delay.
, hurriedly ran to the outhouse and brought over the paintings and wine that Lao Zhangtou mentioned.
Lao Zhangtou took the painting and wine, first put the wine on the Eight Immortals table and scented it with incense, then opened the painting and hung it on the wall on the left. When Fang Ming and Zhao Liang took a look, they found that the painting was blank. What was it?
Neither.
Fang Ming and Zhao Liang were very puzzled at this time. They didn't understand what the old Zhang Tou was doing with a blank scroll. Could it be that he wanted to show off his enthusiasm and paint on the spot? At this time, they saw Old Zhang Tou pick up the wine bottle and fiercely
He took a big sip, then picked up a stick of incense and puffed it in front of his mouth. Suddenly, a large puff of flame sprayed onto the painting.
After the flames passed, a picture scroll that was originally blank now revealed a pattern! As the pattern on the painting became clearer and clearer, Fang Ming and Zhao Liang's mouths gradually opened wide, because they discovered that the place depicted in the painting
, it turned out to be the situation in Lao Zhangtou’s house, and even the two of them were in this portrait! Not only that, as the two people kept changing their movements, the patterns on the painting also changed, a bit like a slow-motion movie.
Leave it the same.
Shocked! Absolutely shocked! The two of them thought at the same time, what is the difference between this and the magic shown in the movie! Zhao Liang just paid it off. He grew up in the countryside since he was a child. Such things are not uncommon. For Fang Ming, who has received a high degree of education,
For those in education, this is absolutely a subversive shock.
Lao Zhangtou threw a bundle of incense to Fang Ming and Zhao Liang each, and said: "This is the real world that I used the 'spiritual shadow technique' to photograph. As soon as a ghost appears, it will appear in the painting. You just need to use
Once this incense is burned, the ghost will be burned to death."
According to the book, the so-called "Spiritual Shadow Technique" used by Lao Zhangtou is actually not that magical, let alone a magic trick. He just used a secret incense that was cured with a special method. When lit, it can make the surrounding people
The magnetic field in the space produces an abnormal fluctuation, which has the function of refraction.
In addition, the painting is also specially treated. After being sprayed with alcohol, it can match the surrounding space magnetic field, so that it can reflect the real scene like a mirror. Although ghosts are floating spirits, they are also
It exists in the form of magnetic field energy, so it can be reflected from the painting.
Although Taoism is magical, it cannot exceed the laws of physics. It just makes use of some knowledge that people do not understand or have not yet mastered. This is what people usually call "tricks". For example
Today's mobile phone communication was called "thousand-mile voice transmission" in ancient times. Even if mobile phones are available, "thousand-mile voice transmission" may not exist, but people do not have the knowledge to understand the reason. Still.
One thing is that as long as it is knowledge that cannot be mastered at the level of modern science, modern people will classify it as superstition, which is very puzzling.
They were talking about Li Chen and Zhang Xinyu. The two quickly ran to the pre-selected position by the well and began to set up the "soul-inducing path" according to the method Lao Zhangtou said. Due to the tense relationship, the two of them put it aside several times.
The arranged candles were knocked over. Finally, I finally got the basic things in place. Before I could even pull the red thread, I heard the terrifying ghostly cries coming from the darkness around me again.
