Under the golden light, Su Wu was in surprisingly good condition.
The Water Bodhisattva, who was a little restless before and tried to break free from his grasp, was now suppressed by the golden light and was imprisoned back into the secret mantra chakra of his left hand by Su Wu!
The Mahakala mantra echoed over and over again in Su Wu’s heart,
The restless charm of Water Bodhisattva was completely purified.
In his visualization, 'The Six-Armed Mahakala, the Lord of the Red Treasure Tent', trampled the black water Bodhisattva all over his body with his feet, and trampled it firmly under his feet, unable to move!
The golden light covering Su Wu's body slowly converged and disappeared.
He turned his head and looked at Xuan Zhaolao,
It was discovered that the golden light on Old Dao Xuanzhao's body and his own disappeared at the same time.
The mountains have stopped shaking and the earth has returned to calm.
But the surrounding trees were uprooted by the force of heaven and earth, and the scene of earth and stone graves rising up still silently told the onlookers that a 'big earthquake' had just occurred here!
The mountains and rivers that were forcibly divided by Huigui now reunited.
The black river that separated Xuanzhao Laodao and Su Wu had disappeared without a trace.
The old Taoist priest looked at the crack that Su Wu had just escaped from - the crack had also closed in a moment, and there were not many traces left. He said with lingering fear: "It's a blessing that senior brother lit the candle for us on the altar. The natal fortune lamp.
Cast golden light and divine spell to protect us at the critical moment,
Otherwise, it will not be so easy for you to break free from the shackles of the mountain and escape from the various 'unexpected disasters' caused by Huigui! "
“The two seniors are also skillful and experienced.
The golden divine curse that was cast on me just now was just right for me.
Such blessings from other talismans may not have such a good effect on me. "Su Wu nodded, quite agreeing with what Xuan Zhao Lao Dao said.
Old Taoist Xuan Zhao stroked his beard and smiled contentedly.
He looked proud.
He looked around and identified the correct direction after the change in the mountain terrain. He pointed to the road ahead and said: "Let's go, keep on going!
The terrain in Niujiao Mountain is not complicated, and no matter how difficult it is to change the terrain, it will be difficult to change the old appearance of this place.
But - it can cause the mountains and rivers to attack, causing the earth dragon to stand up!
This treacherous power,
Much scarier than before! "
A solemn look flashed across Xuan Zhao's eyes.
He led Su Wu further into the mountains.
The road went round and round, stopping and going, re-identifying the direction and surveying the path from time to time. Although there were some dangerous accidents on the road, these accidents did not make the two of them helpless. With the joint efforts of the two, they were both surprised and safe. Survive the danger.
This took about more than an hour,
Xuan Zhao then took Su Wu to the place where his 'Third Senior Sister' was originally buried.
The burial place of 'Third Senior Sister' is in a wild peach forest.
The peach trees have long withered,
Only withered branches are left standing above the earth, and the branches are rugged.
The old Taoist leader led Su Wu to the thatched cottage deep in the peach forest, and explained to Su Wu: "When I buried the senior sister, I had already struck all the peach trees here with five thunderbolts.
At that time, most of the peach trees were dead.
However, the dead peach tree will no longer breed 'evil spirits', but will exude righteousness.
It is suitable for guarding the grave of Third Senior Sister.
If by luck one or two peach trees survived being struck by five thunders and the dead trees sprouted new branches, that would be a great blessing. It would ensure the peace of senior sister's grave and would be more helpful for her practice.
When you and I are walking in the forest, don't just walk. Look at the peach trees around you. Is there any one that is not dead?
New branches sprouted? "
Su Wu listened to what the old Taoist priest said and spent some time thinking about it.
Carefully identify the withered peach trees, and check whether there are any buds or green leaves growing on the branches of the trees?
pity,
The peach grove here is no different from the woods in other parts of Niujiao Mountain.
The trees have long since completely withered due to the invasion of the dark and mysterious charms. Where is there any life left?
The peach tree that has been struck by lightning is then infected by the dark and mysterious charm of the disaster. It seems that it is a fool's dream to want to sprout new branches!
Su Wu and Lao Dao walked to the thatched cottage.
After all, the thatched cottage had been exposed to wind, sun and rain, and had long since decayed. As the two approached, a gust of cold wind blew through, and the entire thatched cottage groaned feebly, and collapsed into a pile of rotten wood and thatch in front of the two people.
In the thatch pile,
A stone tablet stands quietly.
It says, "The tomb of Taoist Xuanbi in Maoshan, the year of his birth is ominous, the year of his death...". After the year of his death, there is no word "ominous", but nothing written.
“I don’t know the date of birth of Senior Sister Xuanbi.
At that time, I still thought that she would be able to survive the first reincarnation of the demon body and survive from death, so the year of her death was not written down. This is also a rule of Maoshan witches. If you drive corpses for others in the future, Shan, you must not write the death year of your fellow teacher.
If they survive,
When I see my own death date, I'm afraid I'll scold you.
This kind of thing is unlucky after all. "
As he spoke, Xuan Zhao picked up a branch, swept away the thatch pole covering the tombstone, and together with Su Wu, arranged it to a place where it would not interfere with business.
Later, Xuanzhao took out several rolls of yellow cloth from the bag.
Cut the yellow cloth into a long piece of cloth about eight feet long and two feet wide. According to the direction of the Bagua diagram, the eight long pieces of cloth are spread around the tomb in sequence.
He didn't say a word to Su Wu at this time. He took out his writing brush, dipped it in cinnabar and red ink, and sketched the talisman Yunji on the long cloth. The 'eyes' of each talisman were all the hexagrams and lines of the Eight Trigrams. .
The outline of the eight talismans took half an hour.
Within half an hour,
Su Wudu stood aside quietly.
The face of the veteran painter was covered with sweat, and his clothes were soaked with sweat.
"Amidst the darkness and ghosts, such a long time has passed, but there is still no accident - I'm afraid the biggest accident may be in the tomb of the third senior sister." After drawing the spell, put away the pen and ink, the old man said Wiping the sweat on his face with his sleeve, he walked to the front of the tombstone. While talking to Su Wu, he took out a pair of candles and incense sticks.
They are lit in turn and placed in front of the tombstone.
Su Wu frowned and said, "If this accident is within our expectations, is it still an 'accident'?"
"Is it really what you and I expected?" Xuan Zhao turned around and asked Su Wu.
Su Wu was silent in thought.
"I didn't expect any problems to occur in Senior Sister's tomb, but there was a big problem inside - I had expected this in my heart, but it was still an accident.
Such is the mystery,
The less you want something to happen,
It just happens to cause some things to happen.
——These things all happen outside of our expectations and run counter to our expectations.
Therefore, this is also an accident. "
The old Taoist Xuanzhao explained a few words to Su Wu. He held three sticks of incense and placed them in front of the tomb. He then stepped back three steps and bowed his head to the tombstone and said: "Where can the wandering souls stay? It's a false alarm in the tombs and forests!"
Today, I invite the great master of Maoshan to serve as the five generals of the land——
Find the true soul, eliminate the calamity of death, and rebuild the spirit!
Heaven's Gate is open!
The ground door is open!
The wind from thousands of miles long brings the soul!
I serve Maoshan Patriarch as urgent as a law! "
call--
The old Taoist priest gave the order, and suddenly there was a roaring wind coming from all around!
The strong wind blew the withered peach trees everywhere, causing smoke and dust to rise everywhere, and the misfortunes and evil spirits were swirling endlessly!
The long wind blows in front of the tombstone,
Xuan Zhao stared closely at the pair of candles and three sticks of incense in front of the tombstone.
The candle was not blown out by such a fierce wind!
Seeing this scene, he looked happy. However, the old Taoist frowned when he saw three sticks of incense burning from the beginning to the end under the strong wind.
A strong wind blew by,
In addition to consuming three sticks of incense, the old Taoist
The small mound behind the tombstone looks unchanged.
He frowned deeply and murmured to himself: "The candle has not been extinguished, the human soul has not been extinguished, the incense has burned out, and the breath has been exhausted - the person's breath has been exhausted, how can the soul still remain?"
Obviously,
The result of Xuan Zhaolao's verification was far beyond his expectation.
He had never seen such bizarre results.
The result of the soul-collecting spell reaction showed that the senior sister's soul still remains in the world, but her energy has been exhausted - this situation is different from that of Xuan Qing and Xuan Jue. Although they are half-zombie-like existences, But there is still some energy left in the world,
Therefore, one can walk in the world without dying immediately.
If a person's 'qi' is exhausted, he will have no way to save himself and will die immediately!
The energy is exhausted, and there is absolutely no way the soul can survive!
But what Xuanzhao saw at the moment was contrary to this situation that has been an iron law from ancient times to the present!
"We are in the midst of ghosts,
Accidents happen all the time.
Perhaps, this situation that the Taoist priest did not expect at the moment just shows that something mysterious is at work in this matter. " Su Wu reminded from the side.
Hearing this, the old Taoist frowned even more tightly: "If this is the case, the danger of this accident will probably exceed our expectations."
"Before stepping into the dark and ghostly place,
I already expected to encounter many difficulties and dangers. " Su Wu replied.
Xuan Zhao looked solemn and packed a shovel. He went around to the grave and dug the grave. He said to Su Wu, "I will open the museum this time. Let's see how Senior Sister is doing!"
Su Wu stood beside Xuan Zhao silently,
The great red lotus womb is already in hand.
But if there is any abnormality, the Great Red Lotus Embryo in his hand will be instantly unsheathed, and the source of the abnormality will be cut away with one blow!
Wow! Wow...
The old Taoist waved his shovel and threw shovelfuls of dirt aside.
Although he is an old man with gray hair, due to his Taoist practice, his physical fitness is much stronger than that of ordinary young adults. For him, the work of shoveling the soil with a shovel seems to be better than sketching the surrounding tombs. The eight talismans are more relaxed.
Not long after,
The soil covering the tomb was completely dug up.
The lower soil is dark red in color, and as the expert digs deeper and deeper, it gradually emits a putrid smell.
When he saw the deep red soil, his eyes became serious.
When the old Taoist gradually smelled the rancid smell,
His brows were completely furrowed.
"Already rotten?
How could this be? How could this be so..."
Xuan Zhao murmured to himself, digging the soil faster and faster.
Until the shovel touched a layer of hardwood - he stopped digging and used the shovel to brush away the deep red soil on the surface of the hardwood. After the soil was brushed away, a coffin with intact red paint and a newer look was revealed.
Putting the shovel into the end of the coffin, the old man glanced at Su Wu.
He didn't speak,
Su Wu was particularly clear about the meaning revealed in his eyes.
rustle--
Su Wu pulled out the big red lotus.
The old Taoist suddenly exerted his strength and pried open the red lacquered coffin with a series of creaking sounds!
