Chapter 105: To the ghosts and gods with water instead of wine(2/3)

At the beginning, most of them were powerful ladies or grand ladies. After making a request to cleanse the filth, people asked someone to go back to the alley to ask the young real person to take action. About four or five times, even many cunning merchants and gentry thought that even if this young Taoist priest was not the legendary immortal master, he should be the Taoist priest of Chongxuan Bureau who had obtained a true tradition. He could hire him with confidence and ask him to help pray for blessings and eliminate disasters, post talismans to protect the house, etc. What? The young real person was unwilling to collect cash? Then he would give away antique calligraphy and paintings. If it really doesn't work, he would collect those rare Taoist scripts and then carry one or two silver notes in it. They had the heart and took into account the cultivation state of the young gods, and the best of both worlds!

Every time Chen Qingniu returns to the alley, he will encounter a middle-aged Taoist priest squatting at the entrance of the temple. The latter either tilts his head hard or speaks sarcastically, and obviously he is jealous of Chen Qingniu for snatching his job.

However, the old monk who cleaned the ground twice a day in the morning and evening occasionally saw Chen Qingniu passing through the temple, and would hold a broom in his arms so that he could put his hands together.

Chen Qingniu had no choice but to return the favor and bow to the old monk.

If you walk by the river often, how can you not wet your shoes?

After "showing his supernatural powers" six times, Taoist Chen Qingniu finally met a real object that needs to be subdued.

It is a ancestral home where a military town is settled. The role that is here is not considered a ghost, because there are still generals who are stationed in the military town pass, which is not a soil for a lot of hostility. Most of the ghosts here died in the battlefield outside the pass during their lifetime, and there were no complete corpses, and even no bones existed. Among them, there were many heroes. Due to the long journey or the news was blocked and lagging, the families in the pass had no time to deal with the funeral. They could not be buried after learning the bad news, so they stayed here and wandered.

Chen Qingniu didn't care much about dealing with these ghosts whose Taoism was shallow and unworthy at first.

In the night, he just carried a box alone to the ancient house. Inside the box, except for a pretended peach wood sword, a pile of real yellow paper talismans, a handful of willow branches that the little fox Mei had folded from the He family's courtyard, and a white bowl.

The two trees of peach willow have the power to shock evil spirits. In fact, it is not a rash statement in the countryside, but the fake Taoist priests don’t know how to use it.

The owner of the ancient house was born in a few scholarly family in Tiebei Jun Town. Of course, the so-called scholarly family has a lot of water, but in fact, the ancestors passed the exam for a scholar's fame.

He had not been able to rent such a large house for five or six years, which meant he had made less than three hundred taels of silver. He was naturally extremely annoyed. At that time, he wanted to invite the Taoist priest back to the alley to drive away the demons, but there was a rumor in the city that the guy was a liar and liked to ask for a lot of prices. He really felt sorry for the silver, so he had to give up. Now a true Taoist priest with great power came. Although he was young, after weighing it, he still felt that the deal was stable and cost-effective. So he took the family and waited for the young real person outside the ancestral home to negotiate the price. The surprise was that the Taoist priest only collected three taels of silver as a deposit. If he could not subdue the demons and eliminate the demons, he would return all the money afterwards.

Look, this is the style of a master and the spirit of a fairy.

Chen Qingniu walked into the ancient house where he had been in his third year, went straight to the lobby where the plaque of Wenyuan Hall was hung, took off the box, took out the pile of "Magic tools", held a white bowl, and pinched a water condensation technique. The white bowl soon condensed and formed half a bowl of water.

Then take out a pre-written Danzhu talisman, burn it to ashes, sprinkle it into a white bowl, and blend it into the water.

Then dip the willow branches in water, or place them on the Eight Immortals table and doors, or insert them into the gaps of the pillars, or place them on doors and windows.

Finally, he used the box as a stool and sat down. Because the Eight Immortals Table had already been moved away, Chen Qingniu almost sat under the plaque. He silently recited the soul-summoning technique and forcibly "pulled" the ghosts that he had noticed were not good and wanted to hide.

Chen Qingniu frowned and stopped the soul-summoning technique.

It was not fear, but doubt. No matter how big the house was, it was just a three-entry courtyard. However, when the ghosts were attracted, they looked up and saw that there were as many as two hundred ghosts, and they were full of ghosts, and they were constantly coming from the yard ahead.

Most of those ghosts looked like before their death, with iron armor on their bodies and blood stains. Some were on their chests with a large hole pierced by iron spears. Some had their necks tilted, obviously being wiped by enemy cavalry with swords.

Death is a world of strange things.

It is also mixed with the souls of the elderly, young, women and children, timid and weak, as if I saw this young Taoist priest tonight, which was even more terrifying than the living people in the world who saw ghosts.

After staying in Changfeng Camp for a while, Chen Qingniu had a certain understanding of the Iron Monument Border Army. He pointed to a burly ghost wearing heavy armor and asked curiously: "Did you die in the same battle robes?"

The ghost hesitated for a moment and nodded.

Chen Qingniu looked at it and asked, "You only have resentment, but not evil. Logically speaking, you can be reincarnated long ago. Could it be that there were experts who set up a formation similar to detaining souls, so that you cannot break free from the constraints? This is why you have to use this ancient house as a habitat?"

The ghost stared at Chen Qingniu without saying a word.

Chen Qingniu's voice was soft and persuaded, "I guess you have also felt that I have put down those willow branches called "yin branches" in the Taoist sect, and there is no malice. I just want to ask you to leave early. The separation of yin and yang, and the cycle of life and death is the ultimate truth of the great way. If someone stops me, I will break the formation. If you have a lasting wish for many years, I can try my best to help. For example, if anyone still has descendants in your life, I will tell them that the incense offered under the tablets must not be cut off.

But no matter what, you should not stay here. You should know that the more you deviate from the way of heaven and divine, the blessings you should enjoy in your next life will be reduced until you are gone. In the end, you will either completely fall into evil spirits or disappear, and you will have no next life to say."

The elderly, young, women and children are often moved when they hear this.

However, the souls of the border troops in the Iron Monument Army Town were almost completely moved and all looked cold.

The tall ghost, who looked like a general, closed his lips and released a deep thought, "Little Taoist, I will think of you as you have no malice. Please leave quickly! Otherwise, you might as well not leave! For so many years, we have adhered to our true intentions. I will not offend others. Why do you, a foreigner, come here to make trouble?!"

Chen Qingniu asked curiously: "I really want to know, why don't you leave?"

The ghost said in a deep voice: "Don't be too troublesome! Go back quickly!"

Chen Qingniu thought for a while, "But after all, you have caused this house to be abandoned for many years..."

The ghost was a little impatient and sneered, "Why, I want to make a strong move after receiving a generous reward? Little Taoist priest, I advise you not to be too arrogant, give you a stick of incense, remove all magic weapons, and leave quickly."

Chen Qingniu thought of a compromise, "Can you give me some money? What I mean is, you might as well tell me where there is no owner-owned silver in Shengjun Town, and I can get it. I will transfer it to this family, just as it is owed in those years and the rent for the future of living, how about it?"

The ghost seemed to hear a huge joke and took a step forward. The yin energy was so strong that a black aura swam wildly. "Are you worthy of bargaining with me?"

Chen Qingniu asked, "Then you just don't want to be kind anymore?"

The ghost general stretched out a hand and a huge black axe appeared in the air.

"Then follow your principles."

Chen Qingniu waved his sleeves, and the stack of talismans stacked on his legs. Bees and butterflies flew, and suddenly accelerated, and stuck to dozens of ghosts, including the generals and ghosts.

It is clearly a series of light yellow paper elixir talismans, which actually tell the fact that those evil objects directly hit against the walls and corridor columns, like a burning red iron imprinting on the body.

Countless wails and struggles.

Only the military ghost could stand in place and reach out to tear the talismans stuck to their chest. At the same time, the giant axe in his hand was quickly thrown out and slashed straight at the damn little Taoist priest.

Chen Qingniu still did not get up, and waved his fingers together, and a willow branch flew over.

The light green willow branches were as fast as flying swords, and the light was faint, instantly cutting off the huge black axe on the spot.

Chen Qingniu shouted lightly, "Qi!"

The willow branches that still have spiritual energy flashed like a powerful crossbow arrow nailed into the chest of the general and ghosts, together with the Danzhu Talisman, suppressing the ghost.

The ghost general staggered and almost fell. After stabilizing his body, he roared hideously and began to rush forward.

Chen Qingniu kept waving his fingers.

All the willow branches flew from all over the place, illuminating the entire Wenyuan Hall with dazzling green light. The willow branches given with spiritual energy swayed in the air and whipped the ghosts and generals fiercely.

The ghost must have been a tenacious person during his lifetime. After being whipped directly by the willow branches, he had to kneel on one knee, but he still didn't say a word and took it all away. He just waited for the spiritual light contained in the willow branches to dissipate and then fight back.

Chen Qingniu stood up and held the white bowl in his hand.

Near the threshold of Wenyuan Hall, a majestic voice sounded heavily, "Enough!"

From the corner of Chen Qingniu's eyes, he found that the talisman water in the white bowl had ripples.

A middle-aged man appeared in sight.

The iron armor was shattered all over his body, and the holes pierced by arrows were densely packed and covered all over his body, which showed the tragic situation of this man when he died on the battlefield.

Chen Qingniu's expression remained unchanged and said with a smile: "The master has finally figured it out. Look at you wearing armor and military talismans on your waist, and you were still the fourth-rank general of Wuwei during your lifetime?"

He stretched out his palm and his arms shrank back. All the talismans that nailed the ghosts to the pillars of the wall were instantly sucked into his palm, and with a light grip, it exploded with a bang, and the light was shining brightly.

The yin object looked solemn and asked, "Can you remove the willow branches first?"

Chen Qingniu nodded, still holding the white bowl with his left hand, and waved his sleeve with his right hand. The willow branches that were originally performing whipping dimmed in green light and fell to the ground.

The evil object waved his hand, and all the ghosts, together with the general's ghost, retreated like a tide.

The yin object was carried with both hands, looked around, and finally looked up at the plaque and whispered: "It's not that we are harming people. It's really a big world. The only place where we can live is this house. Because it's barely considered a scholarly family, especially the plaque, which has some origins, so the breath here is long and long, and it won't burn our ghosts. If we go elsewhere, with the cultivation of the soldiers under my command, it will be wiped out.

We have not failed to repay this family. If we had not lost our good deeds to protect it, this family would have lost their family long ago, and it is far from the gentry who is rich and wealthy. Therefore, we have a clear conscience in terms of emotion and reason."

Chen Qingniu nodded and said, "This truth makes sense."

The ghost smiled and said, "Little real man, you are not bad. If you meet in the world, I might invite you to drink."

Chen Qingniu asked without comment, "Is there any hidden truth in this?"

The Yin Gu hesitated for a moment, "It's okay to tell you."

Chen Qingniu sat back into the box, put down the white bowl, stretched out a palm, and signaled the other party to speak freely.

After that, Chen Qingniu heard a story, and this story was eventually drowned in the long river of history, like a small splash of water, splashing and falling, silently.

In the middle of winter, outside the Xiliang Pass, there were only snow, weighing several kilograms.

A group of Iron Monumental Cavalry with a population of over 100, and a troop of warships with a time-honored camp, received a secret order one day and rushed to the outside of the pass to intercept and kill a Great Sui border patrol cavalry with a population of only a few dozen.

It is said that among the enemy, there were important figures from the Great Sui Dynasty. The General Mansion of Zhenbei promised that once the head was taken, everyone could be promoted to the Iron Monument, a battalion of soldiers and horses!

One thousand two hundred iron monumental cavalry, including six followers of the army who had been through the battle formation, rushed to the battlefield.

However, when both sides appeared in sight, the Iron Monument Cavalry realized something was wrong. The enemy's military strength was so disadvantageous that they actually lined up in front of each other, trying to fight against the elite cavalry in the posture of the cavalry in a hedge against the formation.

As a result, before the commander gave orders, a deputy general of the military cavalry took the lead in launching a charge, forcing the entire army to follow.

Then there is a one-sided massacre.

A total of 1,200 most elite cavalrymen in the Iron Monument Army Town, together with the chief general and six monks accompanying the army, were all killed in battle.

Being killed on the spot!

The other party suffered only more than twenty casualties.

It turned out that the so-called important figure of the Great Sui Dynasty was Yang Yuanzhen, the third prince of the Great Sui Dynasty at that time. A great monk who soon became famous in the Southern Continent after the war.

This man also followed two royal families to worship him, and a general from the southern border personally acted as a entourage.

Yang Yuanzhen showed almost invincible strength in that battle.

A big halberd, with sharpness, the iron monument cavalry, soldiers and horses were all made of powder!

Yang Yuanzhen even broke through the realm one after another on the battlefield, and her cultivation level soared, and she became more and more courageous as she fought, and was invincible.

In the end, the Iron Monument Essence Cavalry was wiped out, and this cavalry that fought to the death was ordered to withdraw the camp number and destroy the camp flag.

The defeated residence spread throughout Zhuque, and the entire Iron Monument Army Town became a joke.

Prince Yang Yuanzhen stepped on the bodies of 1,200 people and rose slowly in the Great Sui Dynasty.
