After Juli Hualing finished listening, she slowly put away her smile, glanced at Yu Xiaojie and Gao Yan, her expression was calm, and she didn't become angry: "But when it comes to controlling paper-carried spirits, our Yin-Yang technique is the best."
Gao Yan didn't refute, after all, people's technique to control paper carrying spirits is really outstanding.
Most domestic Qimen Dunjia and other schools know how to control paper-carried spirits, but the main attack is natural. From their point of view, controlling paper and carrying spirits is more like heresy.
Yu Xiaojie also generously admitted: "It is indeed a skill, very powerful."
Juli Hualing nodded slightly: "Thank you for the compliment." Then, the three of them buried their heads in the road, heading in the opposite direction to Qikou Coffin Yizhuang, and came to the downtown street. Stepping into the lively crowd, the surrounding world seems to come alive, which is very different from the surrounding suburban areas.
Yu Xiaojie said in a low voice: "Everyone on the street has dead faces."
It's not a good feeling that they are among the dead now.
With the scorching sun overhead, there was a bustling atmosphere below, but the bustle happened in a pile of dead people, so it seemed strange and cold.
A black cat leaped out from Juli Hualing's wide cuff, shuttled through the crowd, and disappeared in an instant.
Gao Yan looked up, then quickly retracted his gaze, and walked forward slowly.
Nvgu Temple is on the downtown street. When you walk to the most crowded place, there is a crossroad, and there are two small alleys on both sides of the intersection. There are many shops in the alley, and it is also overcrowded. The Nvgu Temple is deep in the alley on the left, and you can see the entrance of the temple when you stand at the entrance of the alley.
Through the long alley, came to Nvgu Temple.
There is a large incense burner and a large iron frame at the entrance of the temple. The incense burner is full of crowded incense sticks, and the iron frame is filled with candles, pairs of red candles shining with fire.
The scorching temperature can be felt within half a meter, and the fat and soft red wax is piled thickly under the iron frame. After a while, someone took a shovel to remove it, and then covered it again.
When the incense burner and the candles on the iron frame have not stopped, there is an endless stream of pilgrims.
Yu Xiaojie was thoughtful: "I have never seen a broken incense in temples, big or small."
Bypassing the incense burner and the iron frame, the three of them stepped into the Nvgu Temple. The size of Nvgu Temple is only less than one-third of the size of Qingshan Palace. Stepping in from the door, there is a small courtyard with a width of three meters and a length of three meters. Behind the courtyard is the main hall.
There are three Eight Immortals tables on the main hall, and behind the Eight Immortals tables is the shrine. There are colorful statues about two meters high on the shrine, with wide robes and huge white heads, a round face like a full moon, narrow eyes and a small cherry mouth, and two blushes on the cheeks.
It seemed odd and dissonant.
Juli Hualing: "Exactly the same."
The words were endless, but Gao Yan knew that what she meant was that the statue of Nvgu in front of her was exactly the same as the bone of Nvgu she saw last night.
"Where are the clues?"
Juli Hualing turned her head to look in a certain direction. A black cat was squatting on the beam, looking down condescendingly. When it caught her sight, it turned around, jumped down, and hid behind the wall.
"Let's go."
Juli Hualing followed the black cat, Yu Xiaojie also followed, Gao Yan was the last, and when he stepped behind the wall, he looked back at the statue of Nvgu.
When Gao Yan turned his head and his figure disappeared into the hall, the eyes of the statue of the female aunt turned imperceptibly, and his gaze happened to fall on where they were originally standing. On the face like a full moon, the corners of the scarlet lips were slightly curved, showing compassion and greed.
Behind the wall is a female Taoist who unwraps the lottery. The female Taoist also has a full moon face, small eyes and small mouth. She tried her best to smile, but she still looked weird.
Juli Hualing: "I saw other players contacted her and released my black cat to eavesdrop on the temple beam. But I didn't dare to get too close, because I couldn't hear clearly. First, I need to untie the lottery, give a certain amount of sesame oil money, and then Just ask 'Where can I get the bamboo bones'."
Hearing this, Yu Xiaojie stepped forward, took out the money he earned from being a fortune teller for a long time, and put it in front of the nun.
Seeing this, the nun asked, "What kind of lottery do good believers get?"
Yu Xiaojie: "I don't know how to sign the lottery, so I have a question. Where can I get the bamboo bone in the town? Oh, it's the bamboo bone used to make the tower bone."
The nun looked up at Yu Xiaojie, then at Gao Yan and Juli Hualing behind him: "The money is not enough."
Juli Hualing: "I remember someone came to ask in the morning, and they took so much money."
Female nun: "They are the first batch, and you are the second batch. They know where to get the bamboo bones, they have already been taken away, and you know where it is useless. But I also know another place, so the price is higher." doubled."
Yu Xiaojie: "Take advantage of the fire?" He took out all the money in his pocket and threw it in front of the female Taoist nun: "I'll give you all, and buy another question, besides the two places you mentioned have bamboo bones, are there other places? "
The female Taoist put the money into the cash box under the table: "No. I will tell you everything, for the sake of your generosity. The first place is in the Yingong Temple, and the beams of the Yingong Temple are made of bamboo. Bone raw materials. The second place is the Yizhuang where the seven coffins are stored, which is the coffin board of the seven coffins."
It turned out to be the coffin board of the seven-mouth coffin? !
Yu Xiaojie and Juli Hualing were quite shocked. Although they didn't know what the Yingong Temple was, they didn't know why the beams of the Yingong Temple were made of bamboo bones. But just came out of Yizhuang, and knew that the things in the seven coffins were not ordinary.
It is obviously not easy to take away the coffin boards of the seven coffins.
Gao Yan: "Where is the Yingong Temple?
? "
Anyway, let's talk about the two places, and the nun doesn't mind telling them where the Yingong Temple is.
"The Yingong Temple is just behind the Seven Coffins Yizhuang, but the incense has been cut off for a long time. Hehehe, the things inside have not been enshrined for a long time, so it's very fierce. I'm afraid I will see blood..."
Juli Hualing's eyes changed, her black cat didn't hear the nun's reminder to the players who came to inquire in the morning.
This female Taoist obviously cheated the group of players in the morning.
Thinking of this, Juli Hualing and the others couldn't help sympathizing with other players in the game field, and at the same time remained vigilant against all residents in the town.
Walking out of Nvgu Temple, the three of them sat down in a teahouse next to the temple, ordered some local snacks and a pot of tea, and got up. Anyway, it was getting late, and it was obviously impractical to rush to Yizhuang, which was close to the outskirts.
Yu Xiaojie: "Brother Yan, what is Yingong Temple?"
Gao Yan took a sip of his tea and said, "Yin Temple is also called Yin Temple, and there is Ying Gong Temple, because the temples are divided into Yang Temple and Yin Temple. Yang Temple is dedicated to righteous gods such as the Jade Emperor and Taoist Sanqing, while Yin Temple is the opposite. Worship the gods of the underworld and the nameless ghost."
"Yin temples are divided into two categories. One is Yingong temples such as Chenghuang Temple and Ksitigarbha Temple. The other category is temples where ghosts live. In some places, unowned corpses will be salvaged and temples will be built to worship them. The temples are also divided into three categories. One is the ghost among the ghosts, which is enshrined in the Dazhong Temple, known as the Dazhong Lord. The other is the Yinggong Temple, which is the skeleton of no owner. The temple usually hangs a banner of "responsibility", which is the favorite place for gamblers. .”
"The last type is called 'Girl Temple', which is a temple dedicated to the corpse of an unknown woman, usually an unknown female corpse salvaged from the water."
The second type of temple is called Yingong Temple, which is full of incense because of "responsiveness to requests". In fact, it is similar to worshiping the Four-faced Buddha and raising little ghosts. The prerequisite for "responsiveness to requests" is to repay the vows, and it must be made clear that there are requests and repayments.
Yu Xiaojie: "If you ask for money and pay back your life, won't you really have to pay back when you get rich?"
Gao Yan: "Yes."
Juli Hualing: "Who would trade their lives for money?"
Gao Yan: "People die for wealth, not to mention there are more people who are lucky. Moreover, it is not necessarily to exchange their own lives for money. Relatives and friends are all lives."
He gently put down the teacup, and the bottom of the cup hit the tea table with a crisp sound.
Juli Hualing was very interested in these folk legends of ghosts and ghosts, so she asked again: "Do you know why the beams of the Yingong Temple and the floor of the seven coffins in Yizhuang were used as bamboo bones?"
"Because of Yin."
Yu Xiaojie turned his head to look at Gao Yan, and listened to his narration.
"The main beam is yin and evil, and the Yingong temple is also yin, both yin and fierce. The two suppress each other, and absorb each other's yin energy. Over time, the main beam in the Yingong temple is the most yin thing."
If it were to be dismantled, the main beam would have to undergo special treatment, but now it is used as a material for making bamboo bones. This tower bone is really weird.
"The same is true for the coffin floor of the seven-mouthed coffin, which is the most sinister thing. These things are actually used to make the tower bones... It's not that there are no bamboo bones and paper, but these things are hard to handle." Gao Yan flicked Pop Cup said.
Hearing this, the other two remained silent.
After a long while, the snacks were all served, and they gathered around the table to eat. At dusk, when the sun set, the shadows of the three of them were dragged very long, and people on the street went home one after another, and the vendors also closed their doors.
Going back to Chen Qingshan's mansion, I bumped into Chen Qingshan at the gate of the big yard, he was still whittling a piece of wood. The piece of wood in the morning was as thick as a handmade rolling pin, but now it has been whittled down to be as thin as chopsticks.
Chen Qingshan raised his eyelids, glanced at the three of them, and lazily said: "Bring one back, you have to pay more."
Gao Yan: "No problem."
Chen Qingshan sneered, and said in the local dialect: "Three people, three pairs of tower bones, you can find them if you have them."
Gao Yan squatted beside Chen Qingshan, looked at his skilled carpentry skills, and asked casually, "How long have you been doing this?"
"Thirty years? Forty years? I don't remember. I started learning when I was four or five years old, and I was a teacher when I was sixteen. The first set of tower bones I made was for a female aunt. I have to do it again every year. What I did in previous years was not good. Every year It must be burned." Chen Qingshan shook his head: "No one hides them, throw them all into the fire and burn them."
Gao Yan: "I remember the bones of the Mindu pagoda. I made it the first year. I went to the Wandering God's Association for a day. When I came back, I either took it back to the craftsman's home and placed it, or put it in the temple for worship. I will take it out next year and wipe it clean. The dust on it keeps going."
Chen Qingshan finally looked at Gao Yan: "Is there any research?" After a pause, he asked again: "Do you like tower bones?"
Gao Yan: "They are very interesting."
Chen Qingshan grinned, agreeing with his words: "You still have vision, don't say whether you like it or not, they are very interesting in themselves. You can only play with them if they are interesting, otherwise what are you doing with them every day? They are alive, what a pity. , others don’t believe it.”
"They throw them into the fire and burn them when they're used up, and they don't want to keep any of them. They worship gods, and there are countless temples." Speaking of this, Chen Qingshan smiled mockingly: "The face is sincere and the heart is cruel."
Gao Yan: "How do you say?"
Chen Qingshan: "Have you been to the homes of the townspeople?"
Gao Yan: "No."
Chen Qingshan: "Go and see it when you have time."
He stood up, stretched his waist, bent his back, walked into the yard with a few logs in his arms, and sighed as he walked, "I have to stay up late tonight, and urge them to finish the work quickly. There are three days left, and time is running out." .”
Yu Xiaojie commented: "It's weird."
Juli Hualing: "I feel like a normal person instead."
Gao Yan got up: "Go back to the room and sleep."
Yu Xiaojie shrugged and followed. Juli Hualing changed direction with them and walked towards her yard with her back turned.
At night, Gao Yan and Yu Xiaojie live in the same courtyard.
In the middle of the night, I still heard the lively and strange sound of beating gongs and drums. After walking far, the sound gradually stopped.
Yu Xiaojie yawned, closed his eyes, turned over and continued to sleep. Gao Yan stood up, lit the white paper lantern, and then rummaged through his pockets to find the pieces of paper and bamboo sticks he picked up from the fire in the Qingshan Palace during the day.
Looking carefully in the light of the fire, the fingers still touched the piece of paper, which felt oily to the touch, as if it had been splashed with waterproof oil. Some oiled paper can also be fireproof, and it can also be used to insulate fires that are not too high in heat according to different ignition points after being poured with oil.
But the fire at the entrance of the Qingshan Palace was quite intense. At a glance, it was covered with ashes from burning paper money, which firmly pressed the flames underneath. Warped with heat.
A piece of paper with a low ignition point can spontaneously ignite without fire if it is placed one meter away from the fire, let alone the tower bone of the fire.
The paper clothes and bamboo bones worn on those tower bones were not fireproof, and they were all burned when they passed through the fire. The tower bones that could not cross the fire could not return to the temple, and the last step of exorcising evil spirits failed.
That's why the townspeople repeat the Wandering God's Meeting every night? It's not the outsiders who really want the tower bones, but the townspeople?
What the townspeople want is a tower bone that won't burn and pass through the fire?
Chen Qingshan is the number one tower bone master in Fujian, what he needs is a tower bone material that will not be damaged at one time.
This is the kind of tower bone that the townspeople want.
The player's task is to help the townspeople and Chen Qingshan successfully create a tower bone that can pass through the fire? Or help them complete the Tournament of the Gods?
Gao Yan tends to the second option, although there seems to be no difference between the two, because overdoing the tower bone is the final step to complete the Wandering God Association.
Creating a tower bone that will not burn is equal to the smooth end of the Wandering Gods.
"The starting point is different."
Gao Yan knocked on the table thinking about what Chen Qingshan said, as well as the belief and worship of the local gods by the townspeople, always feeling too fanatical and pathological.
The fundamental purpose of the townspeople is the smooth conclusion of the Gods' Association, so as long as the tower bones do not burn, the manufacturing process and the process of finding materials will not be ignored. And after the Wandering Gods' Association is over, it doesn't matter where those tower bones go.
——No, it should be in charge.
What Chen Qingshan said meant that these manufactured tower bones that would not burn were still burned in the end.
"The so-called tower bones that don't burn are actually just that they won't burn when they pass through the fire. It's not that they can't burn, it's that they want to burn on purpose."
Why?
Knowing that it is not easy to obtain materials, it is not easy to make perfect tower bones that can pass through the fire smoothly, but the tower bones that can be saved for continued use in the next year have to be burned.
what reason?
Gao Yan picked up the fragment of the bone paper clothes, which were painted in blue and red, with scorched marks on the edges, and oiled on both sides. After reading it over and over again, I simply tore the pieces in half.
The tearing process was not smooth, the paper was difficult to tear, the flexibility was not like paper, but more like... leather!
Gao Yan paused, then suddenly lowered his head and stared at the scraps of paper in his hand, recalling in his mind the sound of silk being torn from the coffin that he heard during the day in Yizhuang.
What was being torn in the coffin?
What is the raw material of non-burning paper?
All the answers are two words: human skin.
Gao Yan gently placed the piece of paper in his hand on the table, and the firelight reflected by the white paper lantern shone on this palm-sized, colorful piece of paper, reflecting a cold colored light.
The pieces of paper on the table are leather, but not human skin.
This is what remains of the failed tower bones after they were burned.
Gao Yan frowned and pursed his lips.
The flames of the white paper lanterns became faint and gradually extinguished. The darkness swallowed up bit by bit, even Gao Yan himself was swallowed up.
After a while, Gao Yan put away the fragments on the table, touched the bed according to his memory, and lay down on it. I tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't fall asleep for a long time. I didn't have a clue at the moment. Those weird clues and guesses occupied my mind, squeezing the longing for sleep to the side. Gao Yan suffered from insomnia.
There is no Chu Suibi's chest behind him, no familiar smell of grass and trees lingering in his nose, and he has no reason to miss him. Getting along day and night for a year has already made Gao Yan used to the existence of Chu Suibi, and also made him successfully get rid of the small problems of light sleep and insomnia.
As a result, once Chu Suibi was gone, those little problems returned.
Gao Yan sighed silently, covered his eyes with the back of his hand, thinking of Chu Suibi, the corners of his lips curled up, sleepiness slowly came up, drowning him like a tide.
third day.
Gao Yan and the others went to the Yizhuang with seven coffins again, but this time they first went to the Yingong Temple behind the Yizhuang.
Yu Xiaojie was puzzled: "The roof beams of the Yingong Temple should be taken by other players. It's useless for us to go. It's better to negotiate a deal with the seven coffins in Yizhuang."
There are comings and goings, anyway, we talked about it, and I don't mind working together again. Gao Yan: "It's not that easy. The paper I asked for yesterday was almost left behind, and what I want now is someone else's coffin board. If it were you, would you give it?"
Yu Xiaojie thought for a while: "I may use a coffin board to smash the person who wants to be killed."
Passing by Yizhuang, Juli Hualing left a black cat watching: "Keep an eyeliner on your eyes, and you will know the situation in time."
Yu Xiaojie suddenly thought: "Speaking of which, yesterday we almost
point is left. Then if you pay off all the remaining debts, can you walk out of the gate of Yizhuang? "
Gao Yan: "It's hard to say."
That's why he wasn't in a hurry to go in and ask for paper.
Gao Yan turned to ask Juli Hualing: "Your shikigami are all cut out of paper?"
Juli Hualing nodded.
Gao Yan narrowed his eyes: "Have you ever used human skin?"
Juli Hualing looked back at him: "In Yin-Yang art, using human skin is a heresy, and it's disdainful for righteousness."
Gao Yan: "It means something."
Juli Hualing withdrew her gaze and looked straight ahead: "Yes. Cutting paper to carry spirits, onmyoji need talents to make a piece of paper come alive. Some onmyoji have no talent, so they use human skin and forbidden techniques to lock people's souls in the skin Inside. Of course, some onmyojis want more powerful shikigami, so they will adopt this method.”
Gao Yan responded and stopped asking.
The Yingong Temple is just behind the Yizhuang where the seven coffins are stored, and you can see it around a long, deserted alley. It is a simple one-room ancestral hall. A gourd-shaped incinerator is cast outside the temple, and the main hall is the main entrance.
There are two tables for the Eight Immortals in the hall, and behind the table is a shelf for ashes, on which many urns are stored. A curtain is hung above the front and top of the columbarium niche, and the words "responsible to all requests" are written on the curtain.
Yu Xiaojie: "This is the Yingong Temple? There are many unowned bones enshrined. But it has been abandoned for a few years, and it is full of spider silk. The incense sticks on the incense burner are all moldy, and the tablecloth has a few holes."
Juli Hualing: "Under what circumstances will you no longer enshrine the Yingong Temple?" While asking, she quickly answered by herself: "It doesn't work or the price is too high."
Her guess is not unreasonable. The Yingong Temple's incense is prosperous because it responds to requests. If the request cannot be answered, no one will come to offer incense over time.
Another possibility is that it is very effective, but the price of votive is too terrible, which makes people feel frightened and abandoned.
Gao Yan looked up at the main beam on the top of the temple. It was a shiny red beam, in the middle, running through the entire Yingong Temple. Compared with other beams with a darker color next to it, it was too strangely red.
Yu Xiaojie: "The main beam runs through the top of the temple, and disasters fall from the sky. And the color is too bright, like blood splashed, it is really evil." He suddenly thought of something, and continued: "The bamboo bone is the beam. , did the other players carry it away?"
Although it is necessary to destroy the Yingong Temple to carry the entire beam, it is not difficult for intermediate players.
Gao Yan: "Miss Juli, can you let your Shikigami go up and have a look?"
Juli Hualing nodded: "Yes. However, you can just call me Hualing. It seems strange to be too polite. After all, we have walked through two game fields together, and we have cooperated... Are you teammates?"
Gao Yan looked at her, but didn't reply.
Yu Xiaojie folded his arms, turned his head and said, "Miss is so beautiful, being a teammate will definitely make it easier for me to be close to the water."
Juli Hualing: "Are you chasing me?"
Yu Xiaojie: "I really want to, but I'm afraid that you will trick me into losing my bones."
He wanted to get out of the singles, but after he came out of the turtle soup game field, Tang popularized a lot of stories about Juli Hualing in his ears.
Don't look at Gao Yan's IQ solo show at the promotion stage, in fact, Juli Hualing got clues earlier than any other player, and the clues were still complete. If it wasn't for her trying to plot against Gao Yan, it probably wouldn't be someone else's turn to snatch the passage to the promotion field if the picture was bigger.
Therefore, in Yu Xiaojie's eyes, Juli Hualing is not a woman, but a bottomless pit.
Accidentally stepped on the air, 'pie-ji'!
It was directly smashed into a meat paste.
Juli Hualing smiled good-naturedly: "I counted Gao Yan as one of my tricks, but I just wanted to ask him to help me save my elder sister. Other than that, I didn't hurt any of you."
She looked at Gao Yan: "I sincerely want to be teammates with you, I have no other plans."
Gao Yan said in a low voice, "Let's take a look at the situation of the beam first."
Chrysanthemum Hualing lowered her eyes, and her heart moved freely. The black cat jumped lightly onto the beam, looked at the big red beam from a distance of one meter, walked back and forth several times, and stretched out its paw tentatively, noticing whether it was there. Danger jumped onto the beam.
As soon as the paw touched the crossbeam, it felt as if the pads were covered with sticky liquid. When I looked up, the pads were covered with red sticky liquid. After sniffing twice, the stench rushed straight to the forehead.
Julihualing, who was in sympathy with the black cat, almost vomited, and then she was enveloped in a cold air, and the danger came in an instant. Juli Hualing didn't even have time to recall her shikigami, she just yelled, "Run!"
Gao Yan and Yu Xiaojie reacted quickly, they tensed up when they saw that Juli Hualing didn't respond correctly, and when they heard the word 'run', they dragged her out of the Yingong Temple in an extremely tacit understanding.
As soon as the back foot stepped out of the threshold, the black cat on the beam was torn into pieces, and the door behind him was slammed shut.
Juli Hualing's complexion was pale, with cold sweat dripping from her forehead, and three shikigami were torn off on the third day after she came to the game field. Although they were low-level shikigami, it still caused slight damage to her spirit.
Gao Yan was a little guilty, so he used a blessing to help her recover her physical strength and spirit.
Two minutes later, Juli Hualing regained her spirits, thanked him and said, "The crossbeam can't be taken away, but I saw something on it."
Gao Yan and Yu Xiaojie asked in unison, "What is it?"
"Anything you ask for."
