Chapter 81 Repairing the Jade Whistle
"Great Elder, who is this Li Binwu?" Someone immediately asked the Great Elder.
"This is Li Binwu, a descendant of several tribes. He has the blood of Zhulong. He is also a member of my Taoist sect at present!" The elder hurriedly explained, then winked at me, turned around and left.
The fat man and I looked at each other and followed him back and forth.
As soon as he entered the house, the elder suddenly slapped the table hard and sat on the chair with a loud bang. "No one of these bastards is reliable, and they are asking for support from the national power. Why don't you go with the ghost Yoshika?"
"Ah? What does it mean?" Even I heard what the Great Elder said, and the fat man frowned and asked directly what was wrong with the Great Elder and what was wrong with asking for support from the state's power.
The elder waved his hand and sighed, "Oh! You two are not members of the Taoist association. It is normal not to know these things. I will tell you the truth. In fact, the so-called Taoist association is just a traditional culture in the eyes of the country. No one attaches importance to this Taoist association, nor does it advocate that everyone believe in Taoism. So, if you want to get the support of the national power, don't even think about it!"
"How is it possible? Does the country ignore the lives of more than 200 children?" I looked at the elder with an incredible face, unable to believe what he said.
"It's not that it's because the Li family is deeply rooted and has too much power. And those who propose such things need a person of importance to speak up so that the country can pay attention to it and take care of it. However, no one among the people I know has such a great weight!"
"But that can't let more than 200 lives be ignored! We..."
I also wanted to say everything in my heart, but the elder waved his hand and interrupted me directly, "Don't think about asking for support from the state. Those people outside are also fence-skinned, few of them are reliable. Don't look at them all as hypocritical and considerate of the world. In fact, they are just Taoist scum who pretend to be masters in front of ordinary people outside and secretly make a lot of money. We still need to do this ourselves!"
"We will do it ourselves? What do you want to do?" The fat man looked at the Great Elder suspiciously. I also looked full of expectations, wanting to see what tricks the Great Elder could come up with.
"Well! We'll do this, just like the evil ghost on the grassland, Bai Ying, Taoist priests, and the group of wine bags outside to greet them. Wen Nianhua and I took advantage of the chaos to rescue all these children, and you two just want to find a way to deal with the Ghost Saint!"
"Ahem..."
"Ah puff!"
After hearing the Great Elder's words, Fatty and I almost choked by our saliva. This was so easy to say. Those who don't know thought the Ghost Saint was a genius. Just take it off with Fatty and I. Is this a joke?
"Great Elder, don't tease us. That's the Ghost Saint. Do you think we brothers are gods? You said it as if our mission is easy. Why don't we change it?" After hearing the fat man's dissatisfied voice, the Great Elder smiled awkwardly, "Don't you have the Ghost King Ji Yu, and the Jade Whistle can summon Qian Ka? You don't require you to destroy the Ghost Saint. As long as you can entangle him, Wen Nianhua and I can rescue those children!"
"Ji Yu just recovered a little bit of strength, how can he deal with the Ghost Saint? That jade whistle was destroyed by a Taoist priest last time, and it has not been repaired yet. We can't take this job!" The fat man waved his hand and refused.
"Isn't it just repairing the formation patterns? Give me the jade whistle. I have been studying the formations for so many years and I am most familiar with the formation patterns. Come on! Give me the jade whistle!" The elder said, and directly reached out to me for the jade whistle.
I hesitated for a moment and handed over the jade whistle to the great elder. This jade whistle was repaired by Ji Yu for a long time, but later, Ji Yu said that it was only a little too late to repair. She had tried her best and there was no way. Since then, I have brought the jade whistle with me and tried to blow it a few times, but it did not sound.
After holding the jade whistle in his hand, the elder took out a magnifying glass from the drawer and began to observe it carefully. After a long time, he was amazed, "Ghost King, he is worthy of being the Ghost King. He can actually repair the jade whistle so perfectly, almost no different from re-engraving!"
"How is it? Can you fix it?" the fat man asked to the elder.
"Of course I can't do such a deep array pattern!"
"Ah Pu!" After hearing the elder's words, I rolled my eyes on the spot. Why do I feel that this is not reliable than a fat man?
The elder laughed, "But don't worry, I have a ghost friend who has studied the formation pattern for five hundred years. If you ask him to come out to repair it, there should be no problem!"
"Then let him come out quickly!" I urged impatiently.
The elder sighed, "Oh! It's not that I don't let him come out, but that he has a weird temper and never accepts my call. You two need to invite him and ask him to come out to repair you!"
"Damn! Why are you so awesome? Fatty Master, I'll be so soulless!" The fat man was very disdainful.
The elder shook his head and smiled, "Don't think he is a ghost, but your Taoism is far from enough in front of him. As long as others are willing, your life will be gone!"
"Go to talk nonsense. Those who have practiced for five hundred years are at most a slightly more powerful character. What can I do to Fat Master?"
"Haha... Fatty, I kept saying that you were still dissatisfied. I advise you to be polite after going tonight, otherwise you would suffer!"
"Tonight? Where is he?" the fat man asked.
"The sun sets, and at the highest point of the West Mountain, there is a persimmon tree. The shadow tip of the persimmon tree is his grave. Remember that it is three steps, no more steps, no less!"
After hearing the Great Elder's words, Fatty and I walked directly outside. On this day, I simply stopped attending class and walked around with Fatty, waiting for the sun to set, and headed directly to the west.
Seeing that the sun was about to set, we found the shadow of the persimmon tree. After measuring three steps, the fat man began to set up incense tables, put on sacrifices, and began to sacrifice.
Not long after, an old man wearing a long Qing Dynasty gown and braided braids appeared in front of us.
When I saw this person, I was shocked. To be honest, this is the first time I have seen such a person except on TV, but after he looks kind-hearted, he is no longer afraid.
After the old man appeared, he didn't even look at me and the fat man, and walked directly towards the offerings on the incense table, grabbed the fruits and stuffed them into his mouth, and enjoyed eating.
Fatty and I watched helplessly, and no one disturbed him for a while.
"Is that true?" The old man looked at the fat man suspiciously, with his black eyes staring at him tightly.
"If this is true, senior, I will say a word of lies, and I would be beaten by God!" As the fat man said, he pointed at the sky and began to swear.
Since I started learning Taoism with Fatty, I could vaguely feel that there is something like God. To put it bluntly, it is just a little omen in my heart. Whenever I swear, I always feel like someone on my head is looking at me, as if I just swear and tell lies, I will immediately punish me. I asked Fatty what was going on, and Fatty told me that this is what is called "there is a god with three feet to raise my head."
When swearing, many people think that this is not very good, but to put it bluntly, this is because God is unwilling to care about you, or the time is not right. Some people, if they go too far, they will immediately fulfill it. This is the so-called retribution.
This is true for ordinary people. Those who know a little bit of the secrets of nature will be even more afraid to swear casually, because once the swearing is sure to be effective and no one can save it.
Now, a fat man who knows the secrets of heaven began to swear in front of the old man. The old man nodded immediately, "I believe you, get up, but I advise you to use this thing less, because the evil spirit inside is too fierce. If you summon it rashly, there may be a disaster in the world. You must be careful!"
I heard this and felt a sudden thrust in my heart. Although Qiang Kao is strong, in my opinion, it is at most the strength of the Ghost Saint. How could it be able to destroy the world? If Qiang Kao has such ability, then that ghost Saint also has such ability? Then is it so troublesome to use to refine an immortal medicine?
Shaking his head, unable to understand these things, he had to think that the old man was scaring the fat man. On the other hand, after hearing the old man's words, the fat man nodded repeatedly and said what he said to keep in mind.
Finally, after the old man finished eating, he wiped his mouth and looked at me and the fat man, "Two children, what's the matter with you sacrificing me?"
"Yeah! Senior, we want you to repair the formation pattern of this jade whistle!" Although the fat man looked disdainful when he was in front of the Great Elder before, when he arrived in front of this ghost, the fat man immediately became respectful and handed my jade whistle to the old man with both hands.
The old man took the jade whistle and glanced at it, and suddenly snorted coldly, "Who are you? You actually summoned evil spirits with such evil things. Could it be to harm the world?"
"Ah? Ah?" After hearing the old man's words, I was a little confused on the spot. I opened my mouth and didn't say a word.
After holding the jade whistle in his hand for a while, the old man said, "I will help you repair this jade whistle tonight. Come and get it tomorrow morning!"
After saying this, before the fat man and I continued to say something, the old man disappeared. No matter how we called, we still disappeared.
After sighing, the fat man and I had no choice but to leave helplessly.
