Chapter 1311: The Gui Zongzhang
"This, this - this hemp rope... has it been used to hang people?"
Zhang Fang stared at the blood-stained hemp rope, his voice trembling slightly, and one hand quietly went behind his back - a stick of incense slipped out of his sleeve, and the three incense sticks were not lit, but they seemed to be constantly gnawed by some invisible existence, and in a very short time, they were gnawed to only three finger-length pieces.
As most of the incense stick was eaten, a gust of cold wind passed by Zhang Fang.
Immediately afterwards, a series of sunken black palm prints appeared on the bark of the wild jujube tree in front of him. Those palm prints kept climbing up, spreading across the trunk of the jujube tree and climbing over the branches in the blink of an eye - the hemp rope stained with red blood hanging on the branch was suddenly grabbed by the invisible ghost and was directly pulled down from the jujube tree branch!
The broken hemp rope floated in the air and was brought to Zhang Fang by the invisible ghost.
Zhang Fang reached out and grabbed the hemp rope in his hand. He watched the strange charm emanating from the rope being gradually suppressed. He finally breathed a sigh of relief, weighed the rope in his hand, and bowed to the empty space in front of him to thank him: "Thank you very much, thank you, second uncle, for helping me with this. I will burn incense for you tomorrow morning!"
The "family of the gui" is mysterious and infinite. Without sealing the gui, you can recognize the gui as a relative and ask the gui to help you do things. However, although you can ask the gui to help you do things, you also need to pay some prices, such as incense offerings, etc.
Compared with the thousands of difficult and dangerous things that the gui helped you complete, you only need to pay a few incense sticks, which is a good deal.
Zhang Fang weighed the strange hemp rope in his hand, and was thinking whether he should recognize this strange hemp rope as a relative. When the cold wind in front of him rolled up, a series of dark palm prints began to grope his neck along his sleeves. Wherever the dark palm prints passed, the blood flow was immediately blocked, and one of Zhang Fang's arms was about to die!
"Second uncle! Second uncle!
I am your nephew, uncle, don't you recognize me?
What are you doing? Do you think the first incense offering is too little? No - didn't we agree - Fourth aunt, eldest sister, please help me persuade second uncle, second uncle!" Zhang Fang was directly frightened by this change. He saw that one of his arms was about to lose its intuition completely, and he was at a loss. He immediately asked the other two fierce relatives who were married to him to help!
As soon as he finished speaking, two fierce figures floated and appeared beside him.
One of the evil spirits was dressed in bright red, but her head was turned back, as if her claws, which had been soaked in a pool of blood, were rubbing against each other, flashing cold light;
Another evil spirit had a head full of messy hair, and she was squatting in the mud all the time, with a row of human heads growing on her spine.
After the two evil spirits appeared, they all stood by Zhang Fang's side motionless, as if waiting for him to be tortured to death by the 'Second Uncle'. The cold evil charm emanated from the three evil spirits, lingering around Zhang Fang, making his already difficult situation even worse. The right arm covered with black palm prints finally became completely necrotic and turned black and purple!
The invisible evil 'Second Uncle' gently took off Zhang Fang's necrotic arm, and disappeared again with the three evil spirits.
Zhang Fang's arm was taken off, and his face turned pale with pain. Beads of sweat kept oozing from his forehead and rolling down his chin!
Seeing what happened to Zhang Fang, the people of Bakhana did not dare to approach for a while. It was not until the three fierce ghosts took away one of Zhang Fang's arms and disappeared that they hurriedly gathered and helped Zhang Fang up.
Everyone said: "Have you forgotten? You had already promised to burn the first incense tomorrow to your second uncle..."
"Yes, now you are promising to burn the first incense tomorrow to it again, it will definitely not agree!"
"Ah--why didn't you remind me?
I lost my arm!
I lost an arm ah ah ah!"
"You have fierce ghosts as relatives, and we are ordinary people-if you provoke them, you will only lose an arm, but we will probably die..."
Several people quarreled and helped Zhang Fang onto the horse.
Now dusk fell, and the tombstones in front of the graves flashed eerie light in the dark, and from time to time the sound of old crows wailing in the thick night sounded.
After Zhang Fang's broken arm, everyone was unwilling to stay in this grave circle, so they prepared to take Zhang Fang away from here.
However, just as they climbed onto their horses, they heard the sound of horse hooves in the darkness.
Zhang Fang lay on his horse, hearing the sound of horse hooves around him, and he couldn't tell how many horses were gathering in this grave circle. He looked a little desperate, and was about to struggle to get up, thinking about words in his mind to appease the panicked people of Bakhana, when the sound of horse hooves around him suddenly stopped.
Immediately afterwards, several people drove their horses out of the darkness and surrounded Zhang Fang and others in the center.
Zhang Fang looked at the leading white horse, only to see a slender woman wearing a wide black robe, holding a knife and sitting on the horse.
The woman had delicate eyebrows and eyes, and there was no emotion in her eyes. She looked at Zhang Fang as if he was looking at a dead object.
Zhang Fang didn't know this woman, and looked at the black horse on the side of this woman.
The woman on the black horse was wearing a red silk dress that was similar to the Tang Dynasty costumes, but very different. She had a long sword hanging from her waist. She was riding on the horse and looked at him with a calm look, unlike the cold look of the woman on the white horse.
Moreover, this woman... Zhang Fang felt a little familiar.
As the impression of the woman on the black horse in his mind became clearer and clearer, a voice came into Zhang Fang's ears: "It is easy to learn but difficult to master the subject of being close to the cunning.
The evil spirits have no emotions. To form a family with them is actually to use the actual application of "using one's own spear to attack another's shield". You can use the power of one evil spirit to suppress another evil spirit, and use the power of another evil spirit to suppress other evil spirits. People are surrounded by many evil relatives, which is actually a bond that connects all parties but does not completely unify all the evil spirits.
The main purpose of this method is not to have a close relationship with evil spirits, but how to become the "head" of the "family" composed of many ghost relatives.
With your ability, it is very difficult to suppress the other party if you form a family with one evil spirit at the moment.
It was also my suddenness to ask you to form a family with three evil spirits at the same time. "
Accompanying that voice, another rider came out of the darkness. The tall young man stopped his horse and became the focus of everyone's attention.
Several more riders came out of the darkness and surrounded the young man in the center.
Zhang Fang heard the gentle instruction of that voice, and when he looked up, he saw the tall young man in black on the horse. He was immediately excited: "My dear!"
The handsome young man on the horse was Su Wu!
Zhang Fang, with a broken arm, struggled to get off the horse and salute Su Wu, but Su Wu stopped him with a wave of his hand. He got off the horse, picked up a branch, drew a circle on the ground, and then said to Zhang Fang and others: "Bring some paper money and incense. ”
Since the Wei and Jin Dynasties, there has been a custom of cutting paper as money and burning paper money for deceased ancestors and relatives. Zhang Fang learned the subject of marrying a gui, and immediately prepared a lot of paper money and incense to carry with him. When he heard Su Wu's words, he was about to tear off the bundle behind him.
Abe Li and other people from Bakhan saw this and helped Zhang Fang take off the bundle, took out the paper money and incense from it, and handed it to Su Wu respectfully standing in front of the circle drawn by the branch.
Su Wu threw the paper money and incense into the circle and burned it, and said: "Fortunately, we came in time and were able to get your arm back. If it was later, you would really become a 'one-armed hero' in the future.
In the future, you must remember not to easily promise your gui relatives something you can't do, and you can't use repeated promises to deceive Li Gui to do things for you.
Once you make a promise, you should either do your best to fulfill it. If you make a promise that cannot be fulfilled, in addition to paying the price, you can also "plead" with them like I did today, asking them to forget the promise that could not be fulfilled and not to pursue the matter. "
Under Su Wu's teachings, Zhang Fang forgot the pain of a broken arm for a moment, and whispered to Su Wu: "How to plead with the ghosts and ask them to forget the promise I made?"
"You can first establish a "clan leader" among the many ghost relatives, and constantly offer sacrifices to it to strengthen its position among the many ghost relatives.
In this way, you can ask the clan leader to help plead.
The clan leader's position comes from you, so naturally it will act as soon as you ask, but you have to pay a price or two when you ask it for help, but it is much smaller than the price you pay for failing to fulfill your promise. "Su Wu explained to Zhang Fang, the ashes of paper money in the circle swirled, and three evil ghosts appeared in his eyes.
He stretched out his hand to the three evil ghosts.
The invisible ghost in the middle, who was called the second uncle by Zhang Fang, honestly handed over the black and purple necrotic arm in his hand. The incense sticks on the ground burned quickly at this moment, and white smoke rushed up.
The steaming smoke is a good thing.
Zhang Fang watched Su Wu's actions and couldn't help swallowing a few mouthfuls of saliva.
He saw clearly that the other party waved directly to his three evil relatives, and the three returned their arms!
But he didn't ask for any clan leader!
What does this mean?
-The status of this young man is extremely high in the eyes of these evil ghosts, so they have to obey!
This is more vicious than a ghost. !
Zhang Fang was thinking, Su Wu had already approached him, pressed his shoulder, and reattached the completely necrotic arm.
The flesh and blood reunited at the broken arm.
Su Wu held the black and purple arm, and a ball of fire surged from his palm, instantly covering Zhang Fang's entire arm. In Zhang Fang's shocked eyes, the blazing golden flames penetrated into the many pores of his arm and swam around in his necrotic arm.
The skin color of his entire arm gradually turned from black and purple swelling to red, from red to pale, and then to white with red!
The fire was collected by Su Wu.
"Your arm is not suitable for carrying heavy objects at the moment. Rest for a month or two. Do some light movements of lifting your arm and moving your fingers every day. When the blood and qi are completely unblocked, you will be able to recover completely. "Su Wu put down Zhang Fang's arm and said so.
Zhang Fang looked at his arm, which had become intact, and kowtowed to Su Wu.
Su Wu stood up, looked at the people of Bakhtin with eager eyes around him, and said with a smile: "It seems that you have not been able to find the skull of your old king yet, and now we are close to Chang'an--"
Abe Li and others looked a little heavy when they heard it.
"It doesn't matter.
I heard that the saint wants to deal with the tricks, and I also want to give advice to the saint.
Then I can help you get your old king's skull back from Vajra Tripitaka. "Su Wu's words fell, and everyone was excited!
