Chapter 220: Phalanges


"My sister-in-law has already said this, why are you so polite?" Yi Ba snatched the menu from my hand and said, "I'll order some."

Yi Ba took it seriously. He didn't feel bad eating other people's food, so he ordered more than ten dishes in one go.

“After ordering so much, have you two finished eating?” Bai Mengting asked.

“You can’t finish the meal and take it away. You don’t know. Eating in Guquan Old Street is a troublesome thing. You have to travel a long way.” Yi Ba said with a smile.

After a while, the food started to be served. Yi Ba ordered more than ten dishes in total, but the waiter brought only five in total, four dishes and one soup.

"The dishes are ready, you two can eat slowly! I will go to work first." Bai Mengting said.

"Why is there a lack of food?" Yi Ba asked.

"You can't finish eating so much. Instead of wasting it, I might as well serve it to you next time I come." After Bai Mengting finished speaking, she turned around and walked out the door with a smile.

“Sister-in-law is really a good housekeeper!” Yi Ba actually said this to me.

After eating, Yi Ba and I sat for a while. After the guests were almost gone, Bai Mengting took us to the backyard, where she found the guy last night.

Yi Ba took out the Dinglong Plate and started to read it in a gibbering tone. When it was first taken out, the pointer of the Fixed Dragon Pan was stationary, but after Yi Ba thought about it for a while, the pointer slowly started to rotate in a circle.

Finally, the pointer stopped and pointed northwest. Yi Ba walked to the northwest corner.

“The ground here has been disturbed.” Yi Ba pointed to the ground.

I looked carefully and found that the soil on the ground did have signs of being turned over. However, the traces are not very obvious. If you don't look carefully, you won't be able to see them.

"That guy did it very covertly! If it weren't for the Fixed Dragon Pan, we would have had to work hard to find this." I said.

"There should be something buried underground. We have to dig it up and take a look." Yi Badao said.

I asked Bai Mengting to find a small shovel, and under Yi Ba's command, I dug up the soil bit by bit.

A piece of red cloth appeared in front of me, still tied with a red rope, and something seemed to be wrapped inside. I was about to reach out and pick up the thing, but Yi Ba stopped me.

“You can’t touch it. Let’s find out first.” Yi Badao said.

“How to figure it out?” When faced with this thing, I was at a loss.

Yi Ba opened his green cloth pocket, took out a talisman and placed it on top of the thing wrapped in red cloth. As soon as the talisman was put on, it suddenly burst into flames.

"What a heavy ghost spirit." Yi Ba spit out such words from his mouth.

“What on earth is wrapped in this?” I asked Yi Ba curiously.

“We won’t know exactly what it is until we open the red cloth, but it must be used to attract ghosts.” Yi Ba said.

After the talisman was burned, the red cloth became a little black from the smoke, and even burned out several holes. Yi Ba untied the rope from the red cloth and uncovered the red cloth.

The bone, there is actually a bone inside, a phalange. Judging from the appearance, it should be the big toe of the right foot.

“To attract ghosts, people generally use their personal belongings, and there are many people who directly use the bones of the dead to attract ghosts. People who do this are all insidious people!” Yi Ba frowned and said : "I was able to cause trouble so easily last time. The kid was beaten away, and I thought we met a good opponent this time. Judging from these toe bones, I'm afraid things are far more complicated than imagined!"

"What should we do next? "I pointed to the toe bone and asked Yi Ba.

“Since this toe bone is used to attract ghosts, let’s simply use this trick to lure the ghost out and have a look.” Yi Ba paused and said, “While luring the ghost out, we must also It would be best to lure out the man behind and kill two birds with one stone."

Yi Ba asked me to bring a small table and asked Bai Mengting to get a red cloth to spread it. on the table. After doing this, he put the toe bone on top, took out the small incense burner, and lit a stick of incense.

"Are you planning to burn incense to attract ghosts again?" I asked Yi Ba.

"What ghosts like most is fragrance. Dealing with ghosts is the same as dealing with people, you have to do what they like."

Yi Ba said with a smile, and then took a Fold the paper money to me and ask me to take one step at a time and scatter one piece of money in a circle.

"If the paper money moves, it means that the thing is coming. When the time comes, Brother Chuyi, please protect my sister-in-law, and leave the rest to me." Yi Ba told me.

The stick of incense stuck in the incense burner was more than half burned, but the circle of paper money I placed still didn't move at all.

In the blink of an eye, it was late at night, and Yi Ba had changed the incense in the incense burner more than ten times. But that damn ghost still has no intention of coming.

“It’s already this time, isn’t that thing coming?” I asked Yi Ba.

Yi Ba was not in a hurry to answer my question. Instead, he pinched his fingers and counted.

"It will come." After finishing the calculation, Yi Ba said to me with certainty.

"Why are you so sure?" I asked curiously.

"Intuition." Yi Ba's answer really made me speechless and choked!

The wind is blowing, and I don’t know whether it is a dark wind or a normal wind. Anyway, the circle I laid out was originally neatly arranged paper money, but when the wind blew, everything was immediately messed up.

"Is that thing coming?" I asked Yi Ba.

Yi Ba took out the Dinglong Pan and read the scriptures, but the pointer on it was motionless. If the pointer does not move, it means that there is no external ghost energy. There is no ghost energy, so it shouldn't be a ghost.

“Watch out!”

Behind Bai Mengting, a shadow suddenly appeared. I quickly picked up the ghost-killing stick and hit it with one stick. Gone, the shadow disappeared. Was I blinded, or did the thing run away?

"Ghost-killing stick?"

A voice came from over there. I turned my head and saw an old woman with white hair walking towards us.

"Did you bury this toe bone?" I pointed to the toe bone on the table and asked her.

"I wonder who is so capable that he can injure the little ghost that I, She Hua Po, set free? It took me a long time, but it turned out to be because you were holding a ghost-killing stick in your hand!" The old woman was cold. Coldly.

"Are you She Hua Po?" From Yi Ba's tone, it seemed that he knew She Hua Po's name.

She Huapo looked at Yi Ba and asked, "Do you know me, you little cow nose?"

"You are the best at raising ghosts in Yudu, the most arrogant and the most powerful one. I mean you, old man, right?" It seems that Yi Ba really knows something about She Huapo!

"I have been out of sight for decades, how do you know about me?" She Huapo asked curiously.

"Uncle Master told me about you, and he still suffered a loss when he was here with you." Yi Ba took out the soul-collecting urn from his blue cloth pocket.

As soon as she saw the soul-collecting urn, She Huapo burst into laughter.

"Who do I think you are? It turns out that you are the nephew of Taoist Xuanqing!" She Huapo looked at me and asked: "The ghost-killing stick in your hand was passed down to you by your master. "

"Do you know who the ghost stick belongs to?" I asked.

“This thing belongs to Old Man Kong who is with Taoist Xuanqing. I have seen Old Man Kong’s skills, and I don’t know if he didn’t teach you well or if you are not good at learning. Just now you used to fight ghosts. The exposed hand is really an insult to the teacher," said She Huapo.

"The ghost-killing stick was lent to me by Old Man Kong. He is not my master." I said.

"Is he willing to lend you this treasure? Could it be that you are the disciple of Qian Banxian?" She Huapo really knows her master and his generation very well! I didn't say anything important, so she guessed it all.

"Yeah!" I nodded.

"I have some issues with Taoist Xuanqing, but one generation doesn't care about the other generation's affairs. I don't want to make things difficult for you two juniors. Go and invite your respective masters quickly, and say that I am She Hua Grandma She wants to settle an old score with them from more than 20 years ago!" From the tone of Grandma She Hua, it seems that she wants to fight one against three!

Yi Ba said she was arrogant. I didn’t feel anything about it before, but now when I heard her say this, I immediately felt her arrogance. "Master has been dead for several years. If you want to fight with him, you probably have to go to the underworld to find him." I said.
