Chapter 355 I want to help you. You should try to be reasonable. A little bit will do!
Jiuchun Village is not small. A few days' walk away is Wangchao Mansion. As a Taoist, Lu Xingshi was naturally entertained by the villagers of Jiuchun Village.
Lu Xingshi also saw that the villagers must be asking for something, so they were so enthusiastic.
Sure enough, after finishing the meal, the old village chief looked like he was sighing.
Since he has eaten the other party's meal, Lu Xingshi will comply with the other party's wishes. If it is not difficult, it is not a problem to help.
Since the other party came to him, it would definitely not be because of lack of money, but because of evil spirits or evil ways.
"The village chief is sighing like this. He must be worried. If you think highly of me, tell me. If you can help, I will definitely help." Lu Xingshi said immediately.
There is no warning for the Earthly Evil Dao Fruit of Mengtou, which means there is not much danger.
The old village chief was waiting for this sentence and immediately said: "Oh, this is also the fault of my village. It has caused such a disaster. I only hope that the Taoist priest can save the evil spirits in the river."
It stands to reason that wronged souls and evil ghosts are incompatible. Wrongful souls are evil spirits, and evil ghosts are evil ghosts.
But once he heard the other party explain the process, he understood why.
There was a scholar in the village who was a private school teacher, and he married an opera singer from Wangchao Mansion. The couple was originally harmonious. Not long ago, he went to Wangchao Mansion to work on business. By coincidence, he fell in love with the daughter of a wealthy businessman. .
If he was a civil servant, it wouldn't be a problem to marry him as a side wife, but unfortunately he is not. If he wants to marry him, he can only take the position of a wife.
However, divorcing his wife without reason is a stain and will affect his career.
There is nothing wrong with men being superior to women, but it is also important to keep a wretched wife out of court. If you are able to abandon multiple wives for beauty and wealth, it shows that you are a person with poor moral character. No matter how good your literary talent is, you will not be admitted.
Therefore, the scholar directly accused his wife of adultery, and the village believed the scholar's words. After all, he was a scholar, and no one would use his reputation to show off.
Afterwards, the opera singer was dipped into a pig cage and died.
Logically speaking, things did not end like this until seven days later, when the opera singer returned to her soul, she turned into a ghost.
If you have grudges and are unwilling to accept them during your lifetime, and you have obsessions after death, you will not be able to pass away. If your soul remains, you will turn into a ghost and come back to seek revenge.
The scholar who suffered first was the scholar. Even if he gained fame and was protected by the fate of a country, he did something wrong and had karma attached to him. Moreover, revenge was justified, and fame could not protect him.
He died that night, and his death was extremely miserable.
Only then did the people in the village realize that something must have happened, so they sent people to investigate and found out the truth.
Now the problem is coming. The chief culprit has been killed, but their group of uninformed accomplices are also the targets of the other party's revenge.
If Lu Xingshi hadn't arrived in time, they would have planned to move away.
After listening, Lu Xingshi also fell silent.
No matter which way you look at it, it is the villagers of Jiuchun Village who are at fault.
Even if the Yamen officials came and heard the cause of the scholar's death, they would just close the case directly.
"Old village chief, this is a difficult matter for you. You are at fault first. Is it wrong for others to take revenge?" Lu Xingshi asked in return.
"Of course there is nothing wrong, but we were also deceived."
"Therefore, I beg the Taoist Priest to transcend reincarnation instead of destroying ghosts. Let her have a good family in the next life." The old village chief also said helplessly.
This incident was so outrageous that even the villagers themselves did not dare to let Lu Xingshi come to exterminate the ghosts.
If he really dared to say this, Lu Xingshi turned around and left after paying for the meal.
"This... I don't know how to do it." Lu Xingshi spread his hands. The Earthly Evil Dao Fruit Tongyou should be able to transcend reincarnation and send this opera actor to the afterlife, but the problem is that his cultivation is limited and he cannot fully display it.
As for the spells used for salvation, he didn't have any.
There are magic spells in "Heaven and Earth Yin Yang and Joy of Joy", but the question is what he is doing with a fierce ghost who is the friend of life and death. There are many kinds of ghosts. No matter how hungry you are, you can't choose because they are really ugly.
"This..." The old village chief was also confused. You are a Taoist and you don't know how to conquer demons. What's going on?
"I know how to pray for disaster relief. If you don't mind, I'll give you some tips." Lu Xingshi said straightforwardly.
Although the Disha Dao Fruit are all passive skills, if Lu Xingshi uses his magic power to drive them, they can actually have active effects. For example, these two can form a ritual.
"Can this method avoid the revenge of evil spirits?" the old village chief asked again.
"It's not possible, but it should be able to make you remain ghosts after death, so that your reincarnation will be smoother." Lu Xingshi said uncertainly.
Preventing disasters and resolving misfortunes can relieve disasters and save people from dangers, but self-destruction does not seem to be included in this.
The old village chief's expression also dropped, as you know, there is no way to solve the village's crisis.
Of course Lu Xingshi has it. The Earthly Evil Magical Power: Generating Light is enough. The second is the Earthly Evil Magical Power: Sunburst with a high probability. In addition, he can also drive away gods and connect to the underworld if he doesn't care about the cost.
But the question is why should he take the risk of increasing his karma to help them, just because of a meal? If this meal was given to him when he was about to starve to death, then Lu Xingshi could just take a trip into the muddy water.
However, this meal was not his life-saving grace. Lu Xingshi could also buy it with money.
"I don't know if you have any other teachers or fellow Taoists. If you can invite me to save the lives of all the people in my village, I'd be willing to pay him a lot of money." The old village chief said quickly.
Through the other party's words, Lu Xingshi suspected that Taoists also wanted money?
"No, otherwise you should go to Wangchao Mansion to hire someone. There will definitely be someone in the big city who is good at the magic of transcending the afterlife." Lu Xingshi was actually interested in it. He had to find one that could be used to transcend the afterlife. Otherwise, he would be missing something. merit.
According to the "Fu of Heaven and Earth Yin Yang and Great Joy", the hibiscus tree, the spiritual root of heaven and earth poured into oneself with merit as nourishment, can make it bear the fruit of earth evil.
As for the Tiangang Dao Fruit, Lu Xingshi needs to produce all seventy-two Earthly Evil Dao Fruits before they can begin to bear fruit.
Spells include major spells and minor spells, and magical powers naturally include major magical powers and minor magical powers. In the same way, Taoist fruits are also different.
The earth is evil first, and the sky is strong later.
Lu Xingshi didn't know how much merit it took to make a Tao fruit grow on the tree, but it was definitely a lot.
Of course, you don't need to use merit. As your cultivation level improves, it can also be produced on the spiritual roots of heaven and earth. It just depends on when it will be produced and what kind of fruit it will be.
Lu Xingshi naturally prefers to use merit as a foundation, because this does not mean that your merit disappears, but that it is integrated into the spiritual roots of heaven and earth and has many magical effects. In addition to bearing Tao fruits, enough merit can also make the spiritual roots grow. , or through quantitative changes leading to qualitative changes, improving the quality of spiritual roots.
This can also be regarded as the lowest cost method of improving spiritual roots, such as turning ordinary spiritual roots into heaven and earth spiritual roots, so that spiritual roots that cannot bear Dao Fruit can also have Dao Fruit. As for other methods, then It’s even harder. It’s better to use merit to water it, at least there are channels available.
"The Great Music of Heaven and Earth Yin and Yang" is not only an article on exercises, but also an encyclopedia similar to monasticism, recording a lot of common sense about monasticism.
It's a pity that Lu Xingshi is not from this world, so he has to learn common sense again, and it takes time to understand it.
"What the Taoist Master doesn't know is that Jiuchun Village has been blocked by this evil ghost since yesterday."
"You can only go in, you can't go out. Naturally, we wanted to go to Wangchao Mansion, but all the people who went out before died suddenly." The old village chief told the truth, otherwise he could come to Lu Xingshi to play the bitter card. , I have already solved it by myself.
Precisely because they couldn't solve it, they could regard Lu Xingshi as their hope.
"For the sake of the lives of hundreds of people in my village, I hope the Taoist leader can save one life." The old village chief was about to kneel down in front of Lu Xingshi.
Lu Xingshi reacted quickly and held him down.
He had been prepared for this for a long time. Considering the other party's situation, he really wanted to kidnap him morally.
"Old village chief, it's not that I won't save him, but that I can't save him. The water in your village is too deep."
"It's better for you to die early and be born early. I'm doing this for your own good." Lu Xingshi's top-notch moral kidnapping technique: I'm doing this for your own good.
It is true that hundreds of lives are a big deal, but who told you to kill other people's lives indiscriminately just to curry favor with them? Your life is theirs, but theirs is not theirs?
Moreover, Lu Xingshi was an outsider. He even said that he couldn't solve the problem, so he still had to hold him back, just to let him support him.
Even if they have more people, their lives are more valuable, and Lu Xingshi is alone, so he will die if he dies.
When Lu Xingshi said this, the old village chief's face turned blue and white.
"The old village chief must have made his own decision, so I'll take my leave first."
"Thank you for your kindness." Lu Xingshi put down a small piece of silver particles, stood up and left.
He will definitely help within his ability, but there is nothing he can do about it beyond his ability.
It was impossible for Lu Xingshi to bear other people's mistakes.
"Taoist, Taoist..." As soon as the old village chief collected the money, he chased him out. He did not expect Lu Xingshi to be so decisive.
It's not like he has never met Taoist You Fang before, but this is the first time he has seen him so ruthless.
It's just that he just ran out for two steps and didn't dare to continue chasing.
He looked at the threshold of his home in horror, and he didn't know when wet water marks appeared.
The water marks soaked through, forming an appearance similar to footprints.
Look at this appearance, the stay is not short.
"No, Taoist priest, come back quickly!!!" the old village chief shouted, but mist appeared in front of his eyes.
Everything around him was shaking, and in the blink of an eye he realized that he had been sunk into the water, and an indescribable feeling of drowning came over him.
He clutched his neck and struggled continuously, but he only felt powerless.
"It's an evil age with five turbidities. As expected, evil spirits are rampant. In broad daylight, there are actually evil spirits killing people!"
Suddenly, a rough male voice came, and then a sword light passed by. The old village chief escaped from death, and his expression gradually became clear.
