Chapter 120: Resurrection
After discovering the grave bag, Zuo Chen did not go directly back to Lu Youwei’s home.
First we came to the courtyard where raw materials were harvested and cut, and wrote on yellow paper the "talisman for all dangers of great disaster" made by the ghost county magistrate. Then he went to the big vat and cut people. The knife and the many juggling objects left here were stuck.
Afterwards, I kneaded a few more magic formulas, and I saw that the writing on the talisman seemed to come alive, crawling around like a small insect.
Caiyi rolled up her sleeves with her hands. After seeing the talisman, she felt a chill and goosebumps appeared all over her body.
This is the spell recipe in the head-lowering technique. It does not require the opponent's horoscope, only the opponent's personal belongings and the traceable scene, and the power of the spell will automatically fall on those owners.
But to lower your head, you need to borrow the power of the Yin God, but Zuo Chen doesn't need it. Just this talisman can make those people's lives full of twists and turns, and those with weaker horoscopes will die from various accidents.
And he also left a small gap. As long as this group of people has a little bit of skill in playing tricks and can open a magic altar to conduct reverse investigations, they can find out that the location of Fang Shu is in this compound.
When the time comes, as long as they come to this place and touch the yellow paper talisman with their hands, the talisman will come to life directly and be imprinted on their skin.
In the next seven days, everything will be the enemy of that person and seek his fate.
King Kang's luck was cut off by Zuo Chen with this talisman at that time. Otherwise, relying on his "Fukang" destiny, he might have easily escaped that time.
After doing all this, Zuo Chen was satisfied, and then he took the two of them back on the donkey cart and walked leisurely towards the Lu family.
"Taoist Priest, what did you see when you saw the tomb bag just now?"
Caiyi approached Zuo Chen and asked with some confusion.
After listening to her words, Zuo Chen slowly explained:
"Actually, I felt something was wrong the first time I saw that child. His three souls and seven souls transformed into a dog were too powerful, but if I looked closely, I couldn't see any traces of knives or axes on the souls. They were naturally integrated into one body. , it’s not like they were spliced together by violence as Mr. Tang said before.”
After hearing Zuo Chen’s words, Mr. Tang couldn’t help but subconsciously reached out and scratched the back of his head.
In fact, he can also observe people's three souls and seven souls, but that requires making an altar. First, take some willow branches, then some cow tears, tap them on his forehead and eyes, and then use the magic eye to open the eyes. After reciting the magic formula once, you can see the magic soul in the mysterious world.
For Zuo Chen to be able to open the mysterious eyes with great effort, Mr. Tang felt that he would definitely not be able to do it.
Caiyi rubbed her temples and started thinking after listening to Zuo Chen's explanation:
"It's not that they were forcibly mixed together by an external force... In other words, this child is actually a mixture of human and dog?"
Zuo Chen nodded:
"The recovery of the innate Qi makes An object returns to its original state as much as possible. For example, the land in Xuzhou should not be left in the wilderness. With the nourishment of the innate energy, crops can grow again and turn into black soil suitable for the growth of crops.
" But after all, the original state still needs a standard. Yiqi uses the three souls of Wujing as the main reference to restore it to that state.
“That is to say, if I had ignored him in that yard and used my true energy directly on the child, what he would have turned into would not be the child he was before, but a real human dog. ”
Caiyi couldn't help but take a breath when she heard this.
She finally understood why Zuo Chen had to come here in the first place to trace the source.
"Taoist priest, what did you see in the grave just now?"
"It's the child's body grave."
Listening to the answer, Caiyi Eyes widened.
"Ah?"
"The body grave? The child is dead? What is in the yard now?"
"This matter should be left to Lu Youxin, the escort chief, to explain it. "
Zuo Chen said.
The donkey cart stopped. Caiyi looked up and realized that they had returned to the small town.
This place is still some distance away from the Lu Family Courtyard, but it is the only way to go to the Lu Family Courtyard. When you look up, you can see a pavilion on the roadside with a dining table set out by the store during the day. Now there are people sitting inside. There was a man. There was a big pot next to him and four bowls, all filled with wine.
The man first picked up a bowl and drank from it, and then made a gesture of invitation to the three people on the donkey cart.
Zuo Chen got off the donkey, walked into the pavilion, and sat down facing each other. Caiyi and Mr. Tang followed closely behind and chose the other two chairs to sit on.
The person who invited people to drink was Lu Youwei’s eldest brother Lu Youxin.
After finishing the bowl of wine just now, Lu Youxin clicked his tongue twice, obviously still feeling unsatisfied, so he poured himself another half of the bowl and drank it.
A faint blush finally appeared on his face, and he held his hand to Zuo Chen and said:
"The little Taoist master is really good! I heard clearly what you just said from the donkey cart. . Just as you said, my nephew was weak and could not withstand the thieves. By the time I got there, my nephew had already stopped breathing and was dead. "It's been a long time."
After hearing what Lu Youxin said, Mr. Tang fell into thought for a moment, and then a look of astonishment appeared on his face: "The Soul Resurrection Technique?"
Lu Youxin wanted to continue talking, but when he heard Mr. Tang say this, he glanced at the old man in surprise:
"The old gentleman is also very discerning."
He sighed and said:
"How could I not know how much my stupid brother and sister-in-law doted on that child? They gave him all the good things in daily life and held them in his arms. I'm afraid of dropping it in my hand, and I'm afraid of melting it when I hold it in my mouth. If the two of them were to learn the truth from this poisonous attack on a child who was carefully cared for, I'm afraid that they would become hysterical on the spot and go crazy from then on. < br>
“At that time, I really didn’t know how to tell Yudi the bad news. I was wandering around in a daze when I suddenly met Xiang Ming, who was driving a car.
"After listening to my words, Xiang Ming said that by chance, he had obtained a magical power called the soul-returning power, which can save the dead who have not yet dispersed. As long as I give enough money, he can Just give it a try.”
At this point, Lu Youxin pursed his lips: "Our parents died early, and I have been dependent on my brother since I was a child. I have watched him grow from less than a foot tall to now, getting married, starting a business, and living a good life of his own. This may be true. I can’t bear to hear it. I care more about whether my brother can live well in the rest of his life than my nephew.
“I was obsessed at the time and thought that people could be resurrected after death, so I gave him all my family property. He asked me to prepare a black dog and an altar.
"Then...who knows...oh."
Lv Youxin poured himself another bowl of wine, raised his head and drank heavily, then put the bowl down again. Although he didn't cry, his whole body The person collapsed downwards, as if his backbone had been crushed.
“What about Xiang Ming?” Caiyi couldn’t help but ask?
"It was also his first time to try this technique. He didn't expect that it would turn out like this, so he returned all the money to me and left. I really couldn't blame him, so I couldn't tell him about it. My stupid brother and sister-in-law kept putting it off, and now I have met three of them."
After saying this, the cause and effect of the matter were finally sorted out.
Tang Lao sighed: "It is true that the old man used himself to save others at that time, and guessed the escort leader with bad intentions, which is really wrong."
Introduced to Caiyi and Zuo Chen again. He learned the art of lifting the body and restoring the soul:
“This is a magical power that is well-known on the Ten Thousand Magic List, but there are very few people who practice it. It has been almost lost to this day. The reason is that Because this magical power is really flawed.
"It is said that the prototype of this magical power, the resurrection from the dead, requires the use of something with roots and incorporeal material as the material for resurrection. The reshaped Dharma body will be transformed from a human into an elf with innate essence. But the resurrection of the soul is not like this. A great skill must be based on flesh and blood, and it must be alive.”
Hearing Mr. Tang’s introduction, Zuo Chen roughly guessed the flaw of this technique.
It would be better to use plants. Although all things have spirits, plants are spirit rather than soul and will not interfere with the body of the resurrected person.
With flesh and blood...
That is another matter.
How could the soul in the original body give up its body so easily? When corpse dogs kill each other, the souls of both parties will eventually merge into one, and neither one will be able to leave the other's body.
Tang Lao also sighed and told a secret history:
"The last emperor of the previous dynasty used this method to resurrect himself, but even though he carefully selected Deadpool, in the end But he was still affected by the two souls and became a madman. Since then, fewer and fewer people have learned this technique."
After listening to Mr. Tang's introduction, Lu Youxin's lips moved slightly. He wanted to say something, but in the end he swallowed all the words back in his mouth, chewing and swallowing them with the wine.
I had good intentions and tried my best to help my younger brother, but I didn't want to end up like this by mistake.
Cai Yi felt embarrassed, turned around, lowered his voice and asked Zuo Chen:
"Taoist Master, is there any way to save this?"
Zuo Chen fell silent after hearing Cai Yi's words. He counted with his fingers for a few seconds, seeming to be thinking about the feasibility of some plans.
After two or three breaths, he finally nodded:
“There are some ways to compromise.”
Hearing what Zuo Chen said, Lu Youxin suddenly raised his head, his eyes full of surprise.
"Taoist Master? You said...my nephew can be saved?"
His tone was already trembling, and he wanted to stand up and hold Zuo Chen's hands, but as soon as his legs left On the bench, his knees immediately softened, and he knelt in front of Zuo Chen with a thump.
I simply followed the trend and kowtowed to Zuo Chen:
"Please have mercy, Taoist Master, save my nephew, save my stupid brother! Even if I need to dig meat to save my life. Yes! ”
"It's not necessary to dig into your flesh and blood." Zuo Chen stood up and lowered his head to look at him: "But I need you to explain this matter to your brother from beginning to end."
Zuo Chen can Lu Youxin's body was clearly seen trembling slightly.
"...I will."
His calm voice sounded like he had made a promise.
