Chapter 157: The Talisman of Reincarnation

…

"May I ask the old layman, is there anything unusual in the morgue in this main hall recently?"

"abnormal?"

Liu Si frowned and thought for a moment, with a trace of hesitation on his face.

"It's unusual! In the past, this room was very noisy at night, but there has been no sound since last month. The old man was still strange at that time, but he didn't have any magic power and didn't know the reason, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

"

"Old layman, can you recall in detail, what day last month did this incident happen?"

After Liu Si nodded, he thought hard for a while, then pinched a few beards on his lower chin and said.

"I remember that day, Master Liu Murakami just delivered a new corpse. It should be May 23rd."

"On May 23rd, it's already the 16th day!"

The black cat fought with Wu Lide on May 28th, and it seemed that he was the one who took away these souls.

"Thank you, husband, for informing me!"

"Master Taoist, you're welcome."

Liu Si waved his hands hurriedly.

Xu Junming took out the meteorite ball from the magic bag, stamped his left foot, invisible vibrations emitted, and the coffin lid opened automatically with a continuous 'bang bang' sound.

He drew a space compression talisman in the air with his right hand and grasped it with his left hand. All the corpses were compressed into the size of a steel needle and put into the meteorite ball.

These corpses had lost their souls, and there was no point in rushing back. He planned to find a place to bury them tomorrow.

He took back the meteor ball and frowned slightly as he looked at the air leaking morgue.

He pinched a few seals with his right hand, and green light shone.

"Aoki Jue!"

In an instant, countless wrist-thick vines grew out of the ground, climbing and growing rapidly along the surrounding walls in just a few breaths.

The morgue has been airtightly wrapped in a foot-thick cane.

Nodding with satisfaction, Xu Junming stopped.

"As long as there is no fire, it is enough to ensure that this morgue will stand for a hundred years!"

He walked up to Zhong Kui's portrait, bowed and saluted, raised his right hand to the point of a sword, and muttered something.

"Master Zhong Kui, the sage who catches ghosts and suppresses the house, is here. Xu Junming, a disciple of Maoshan Nanzong, prays for three days. I respectfully ask the sage to bring his supreme magic power and Dharma to come, suppress ghosts and eliminate disasters, and protect the house! Urgent!"

Xu Junming spread out his left palm, and the phantom of the Divine Fire Seal of the Nine Immortal Capitals appeared in his palm. He raised his halberd finger, and a spiritual light floated on the Divine Fire Seal and disappeared into the portrait.

Only a moment later, Zhong Kui's portrait on the painting paper showed a hazy aura.

The aura lasted for a few seconds and then disappeared. But the portrait of Zhong Kui on it had an inexplicable charm, as if it had survived enough.

Xu Junming breathed a sigh of relief.

Buddhism has consecration and Taoism has enlightenment.

Just now, he used the 'Spell of Enlightenment' inherited from Maoshan and used the fire seal of the Nine Heavenly Capital Gods as a medium to introduce a trace of Saint Lord Zhong Kui's demon-conquering power to the portrait.

"Old layman?"

"Mage!"

Liu Si, who was surprised by Xu Junming's magic power, quickly came over and his attitude was a little more respectful than before.

"From now on, if you offer three sticks of incense to Master Zhong every day, the ghosts in this room will stop causing trouble."

"Thank you, Master."

Liu Si said gratefully.

In the past, when he lived in this village, he was often teased by these ghosts. It would be great if he could avoid this.

"You're welcome. Old layman, I would like to stay in your right-hand room for a few days. Is it possible?"

"The Master wants to stay, and it's not too late for me to welcome him. It's just that the right wing has been unoccupied for a long time, and there are a lot of debris accumulated in it, so I'm afraid it won't be able to get into the Master's golden eyes...!"

"It doesn't matter, poor Taoists have their own ideas!" Xu Junming interrupted.

Liu Si nodded, thinking of the young Taoist priest's ability just now, he didn't say anything more.

"That being the case, the Master can just stay here... I wonder what the Master will eat, how can I prepare it for the Master?"

"I have already gone off grain and don't need food. The old layman can just do what he wants and don't need to worry about me."

"I know! Master, please come with me!"

Xu Junming led Xu Junming out of the morgue in the Yizhuang hall and came to the right wing. The simple door was only tied with an iron chain. After unlocking it, he pushed it and the dust fell down.

Xu Junming waved his sleeves, and a strong wind blew through, taking away all the dust.

"Squeak...!"

A slightly harsh friction sound sounded.

A room full of broken coffins, old benches, covered in dust and covered with cobwebs came into view.

With a sound of "swish", several snakes and rats hurriedly crawled towards the corner.

"Taoist Master, how about changing to another place? This place is really too dilapidated."

It's just that the room is messy and shabby. The key is that a large piece of the wall is broken. How can a place like this be inhabited unless it is renovated?

Xu Junming smiled and shook his head.

I drew the Zhang Bichen Talisman casually. The Taoist magic power is so magical. As soon as the light of the Talisman flickered, all the dust in the room was swept away.

With a wave of his sleeves, the broken coffin and broken bench in the room flew out from the hole in the wall.

"You guys should find another place to live. This place will be on Pindao for the time being."

He waved his sleeves again, and the snakes and rats flew out.

A green wood aura popped up, and the scene in the morgue reappeared. Countless rattans climbed along the wall and automatically avoided the door.

In the blink of an eye, the walls that were leaking from all directions became thick and complete.

Xu Junming stamped his foot, and an earth-yellow light flashed through him. The uneven ground instantly became smooth and hard, and grew by one foot out of thin air.

Then he took out a futon from the magic bag and placed it in the center of the room. Xu Junming nodded with satisfaction.

"Old layman, this poor Taoist settles down here for the time being. Sorry for disturbing you!"

There was a hint of shock in Liu Si's eyes. After he recovered, he nodded respectfully.

"Master, you can stay here for as long as you like."

"Thank you!"

Seeing that he wanted to chase away the guests, Liu Siguai said.

"Master has been tired all the way, so I won't bother you. If anything happens, just go to the left wing and let me know."

After seeing Xu Junming nod, Liu Si took a few steps back, turned around, closed the door and left.

The black cat jumped off his shoulder.

"Those corpses have long since lost their souls, why are you collecting them?"

"No big or small, what did I tell you before?"

The black cat's body froze, and then he reluctantly sent a message from his spiritual consciousness.

"master!"

"That's pretty much it!"

Cat training has already yielded initial results.

The black cat curled his lips. Although he was dissatisfied, who said he couldn't help himself now?

Looking at Xu Junming who was sitting cross-legged, the black cat rolled its eyes, with a hint of flattery on its face, and stepped forward and rubbed his knees.

"Master, Miaomiao has been very well-behaved these days. Do you think you can give me the golden elixir chapter of the Yuanyang Scripture?"

"Um?"

Xu Junming raised his eyelids slightly and glanced at the black cat with a flattering look on his face.

After getting along with each other these days, he also knew the name of this little guy - Mao Miaomiao!

Mao is a homophone for cat, and the word "meow" is her own name, which is quite luoli-like.

However, Mao Miaomiao's current age is indeed in its infancy compared to the monster's long lifespan.

"Have you finished practicing the Xiantian chapter?"

"Not yet, but soon!"
