Chapter 2 The Evocation
I hurriedly ran up the stairs. Lin Mei was helping my mother get out of the barn, covered with a lot of dust and spiders. The master's house was a big old house, and he was the only one who lived there, so he could hide.
There are many places, and the barn is full of debris, which is perfect for hiding.
My mother was covering her chest with her hands, her face was very pale, and she was a little blue. I hurried over and helped her: "Mom, how are you?"
"It's okay, I'm okay..."
My mother pretends to smile. She has a serious heart disease, but no matter how serious her illness is, she always says she is fine and does whatever she should do on weekdays. So I have no idea how serious her condition is and how much pain she has endured.
Like my master, people of their generation have endured a lot of suffering and humiliation, and no longer regard the tolerable pain as pain, and they also know that the hardships of life will not increase the burden on their children.
"What happened? Who killed your master?" My mother started crying.
I looked at Lin Mei. She was hesitant to speak. She glanced at my mother, obviously she had something to say that she couldn't say in front of my mother. So I helped my mother down first, poured her a glass of warm water, and then put Lin Mei in her hand.
Called one side alone.
Before I could speak, Lin Mei said first that after she knew something happened to Master, she immediately went to Master's house and then called me. After calling me, she also considered that she could not go to other people's homes and originally wanted to hide in Feng.
Inside the empty coffin in the first hall, and I was afraid that it would frighten my mother, so
Based on her decision to hide in Master's house, the enemy has left and will not come back in a short time. When she went to my house to pick up my mother, my mother happened to also come to Master's house. The two met on the road. At that time, Master
The poker friends went to find someone else, so no one saw them entering Master's house.
I secretly thought it was a fluke. When Master's poker friend arrived at Master's house, the enemy had just left. He was familiar with the road and took the shortcut, and arrived at my house before the enemy. Lin Mei and my mother heard the bad news and hurried to Master's house, just in time to avoid it.
The enemy who is one step late.
"When I came to Master's house, I met a group of people..." Lin Mei looked at me hesitantly, not daring to say anything further.
I held her hand: "It's okay now, don't be afraid. Who did you see?"
Lin Mei's hands began to tremble, and her face showed a look of fear and anger: "I don't know if I saw it wrong."
"you say!"
"I...I was on the road, and I saw someone coming from a distance. I felt unfamiliar, so I stepped aside. I saw five people wearing black clothes. One of them was a woman. She looked like,
Like..."
My whole body went cold, and my hands started to tremble, because I guessed who she was talking about! If outsiders could accurately find Master’s home and my home, someone must be leading the way, and the woman leading the way mistakenly thought that the Kun Gua Jade Talisman was still there.
It was in the master's hands, so I went to the master's house first. There was only one woman who knew that the Kun Gua Jade Talisman was in the master's hands - Chen Xing!
Sure enough, Lin Mei struggled to spit out two words: "Chen Xing!"
My heart was stabbing, my head was buzzing, and there was only one voice in my heart: Why is she doing this? Why is she doing this... I rejected her, she can take revenge on me and cut me into pieces, and I will admit it.
Why did she want to kill Master? Master was very supportive of her and wanted me to marry her. How could she kill Master?
If I had agreed to marry Chen Xing, none of this would have happened. It was me who disobeyed God's will and fate and led to this result. It was me who killed Master! I felt regret and hatred, and there was a fire burning in my chest.
, my chest was so tight that I could hardly breathe.
But what exactly are God's will and destiny? Is the fact that cannot be changed called God's will? Is the result of hard work still fate? How can people control their own destiny? I am really confused.
Lin Mei cried and asked: "She, how could she be like this, how could she be so cruel?"
I don’t know, in fact I don’t know her very well, and once a woman is emotionally frustrated, she may do crazy things, but it would be a big mistake for her to kill her master!
Xiaoxue suddenly said in my heart: "Master, you don't have to blame yourself too much. The source of this disaster is that piece of jade. You got that piece of jade from going to Yunding Mountain, but your going to Yunding Mountain was arranged by Master. In fact, this is also
A kind of cause and effect..."
"Shut up!" I yelled angrily.
"I won't shut up. I told her a long time ago that she is not a good person. If you had been willing to believe me earlier and drive her away earlier, this would not have happened."
I was really furious: "If you hadn't put her on my bed, would there have been so much trouble?"
Xiaoxue stopped talking. In fact, I know she meant well. She hoped that I would not blame myself too much and make my body angry. The person who loves me the most may not be her, but the person who knows me best is definitely her. She immediately understands what I think of.
, so I don’t have to apologize to her.
I asked Lin Mei: "Is Lu Chengshan among those people?"
Lin Mei shook his head: "I didn't see those people wearing black clothes and covering their faces, but I heard a man calling himself 'Pindao', he should be a Taoist priest."
Just because Lin Mei didn't recognize Lu Chengshan didn't mean that Lu Chengshan wasn't among them. At least these people were sent by Lu Chengshan. According to my guess, after Chen Xing left, he felt unwilling to do so, so he asked the then Principal Chen to find out about Lu Chengshan.
Contact information, report
I told Lu Chengshan that the vixen in me is not dead yet, and I hope Lu Chengshan will come and get rid of the demon. Lu Chengshan suspected that I had taken the jade talisman and the treasure map, so he must ask Chen Xing, who happened to have seen the jade talisman in the hands of my master.
, so Lu Chengshan asked her to lead the way...
Master was killed. He may have been forced to confess to death, or Chen Xing may have asked those Taoist priests to do it. She didn’t know my master’s care and support for her. She wanted to kill the person I respected most to retaliate against me, and even wanted to kill him.
I killed my mother and Lin Mei! I gritted my teeth and wanted to go to Beikeng Village immediately and punch her to death, this bitch!
Lin Mei threw herself into my arms and cried, sobbing: "She...did she kill Master because of me?"
"No, this is none of your business. This is entirely my decision!" I patted her back gently. If there was something wrong, it was my fault, but don't I have the right to choose my lover? Both of her
The time she came to my bed was not what I expected, and the time she came to my door was not something I could have predicted. It was fate that was forced upon me.
Now that things have come to this, I can only endure my grief and make arrangements for Master's funeral first. Master and my relatives and friends came one after another, and the elders of the Zhou family presided over the funeral, set up a mourning hall, issued servant notices, invited a band, received guests, etc.
. Master’s children have not yet arrived, so I will be a filial son and do all the rituals that a disciple and a son should do. Master had no savings during his lifetime. Fortunately, Mr. Lin gave me 30,000 yuan, otherwise I really wouldn’t be able to do it now.
Know what to do.
I didn't object to anything else, but I was firmly opposed to inviting the new "foreign drum troupe". The sound was earth-shattering and the pop music they played was messy. It was extremely disrespectful to the deceased and would also frighten the souls of the deceased. Master was strongly opposed to this during his lifetime.
It’s just that many people wanted to save face and insisted on inviting one. Under my objection, in the end, only a traditional folk band was invited to play traditional mourning music.
Master has a ready-made coffin, which only needs to be painted. Although cremation was promoted at that time, people who had already made coffins still allowed burial. Master has not caught up with good policies in his life, and this time he has caught up with the last train. But let me
There are some headaches that Master didn’t have before he was alive.
Finding a good grave for myself has never been mentioned to me. How easy is it to find a feng shui treasured place all of a sudden? I hesitated and decided to build a tomb in a passable place in the back mountain first.
I'll wait until I find the ideal place before moving there.
In the afternoon, the master's daughter and son came back one after another. The daughter howled several times in front of the funeral, but I couldn't hear any sorrow in her voice. The master's son had a fleshy face, a bald head, and scars on his face. Not only did he not shed a single tear,
He also held a cigarette in his mouth and asked me how much savings Master had left and where the valuable things had gone...
For the sake of Master, I endured everything, and finally gave him 3,000 yuan, and I would dispose of all Master's relics.
I couldn't say goodbye to Master and be separated forever. When it was almost midnight that night, I kicked out a few people who were keeping watch, closed the door, turned out the lights, and left only a pair of white candles. Then I opened the door.
The Heavenly Eye lowers the yang energy in the body, holds the soul-summoning flag in one hand and the soul-summoning bell in the other, and begins to cast spells to summon the master's soul.
The incantation method of summoning the soul is somewhat similar to Qu Yuan's poem "Calling the Soul", but it is not as long or complicated, and the content is more flexible. It mainly tells the things that the deceased cares about, so as to attract the soul of the deceased. I haven't read a few sentences yet.
I saw the master pushing the door open and walking in from the door.
Master's appearance was the same as before, but his body was weak. The old sick look was gone, and his clothes were clean and tidy. On the contrary, he felt much more energetic than before. I knelt down in a hurry, called "Master" and burst into tears.
But he didn't dare to speak loudly for fear of bumping into him.
"Get up, don't cry."
Master's voice rang in my mind, and I couldn't help but be shocked, because I used to follow Master to summon the souls of others. Some of the souls summoned with low spiritual consciousness just stood there blankly, while those with strong spiritual consciousness could only make some movements to express their meaning, unable to express their meaning.
Communicate directly with living people. Dead souls are not equal to spiritual bodies. Their abilities are very low and may even be blown away by a gust of wind. Those who can directly affect living people are evil ghosts and resentful spirits and do not belong to the good category.
I hurriedly raised my head and saw that Master's expression was calm and peaceful, and there was no fierceness in his face, so I felt relieved. Master walked to the chair where he usually sat and sat down. He probably felt a little uncomfortable because he had no sense of touch.
After adapting, he stood up again: "Get up, I know everything you did in the city, very good, very good."
I stood up in a hurry and asked in surprise: "Master, how can you talk to me directly?"
The master smiled and said: "You have done great merit this time. Mrs. Chen from Linshui sent an envoy to save me from the pain of reincarnation. She will take me to be reincarnated in a wealthy and kind family. Because of your filial piety, I was allowed to come."
As soon as I see you, I will leave immediately."
"Ah..." I was shocked. So there really are gods, and because I resolved the crisis in the White Tower and the Uttara, do I have a great achievement?
The master said: "If a disciple is like this, what else can I ask for? I am very happy and have no regrets, so don't be sad either."
"No, no, Master, I don't want to leave you. I still have a lot of things that I haven't learned yet, and I still don't understand a lot of truths. I haven't honored you yet..."
"Xuan Ming, when you want to show filial piety to Master in your heart, you are already fulfilling your filial piety. No matter how much enjoyment you have in the world, it will be fleeting and cannot match your filial piety. As for your studies, you have already surpassed Master. This is also the best filial piety to Master.
