Oh, so that’s how it is. It must be true, otherwise how could he know so much about the magic bottle and the “gate of life” leading to the underworld in the shop
After listening for a long time, Shen Bing understood that this was my great grandfather. She was quite polite and quickly said to the old Taoist: "Hello, great grandfather."
The old Taoist smiled happily and said, "They are all ghosts, what's the point of calling them old men. Xiaofeng, you have a good wife."
Uh, the old man thought this was my wife, but we haven't even started dating yet. Besides, I secretly glanced at his wife, and he might have fallen for his great-grandson's wife.
Outsiders knew to greet the old man, so I, the great-grandson, could not be less polite, so I quickly turned over and knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and called him great-grandfather several times. The old man was not polite to me. After I kowtowed, he pointed at the woman in the □□ and said that she was rescued by him. She said that she entered the underworld with her great-grandson through the gate of life, so he already knew I was coming. He just had never seen what I looked like, until he heard the ghost story, he was sure that I was his great-grandson.
Shen Bing and I were stunned. We stood up and looked. It was Ding Ruiyun, who was sleeping. The heavy stone in my heart fell to the ground. My ancestor was not an old pervert. I hurriedly asked what was going on.
He said that he was practicing Taoism in seclusion inside the stele when he heard some noise outside, as if a female ghost was insulted. He came out to take a look. It turned out that before Ding Ruiyun was reincarnated, he wanted to see his son when he passed by Wangxiang Terrace, but the ghost refused to let him. He ran back in anger. This ancestor of our family was kind-hearted and saved the female ghost from entering the stele.
I felt very curious. The stone tablet looked small from the outside, but the space inside was quite large. What was even more strange was that a ghost could practice Taoism in seclusion? The ancestors said, you don’t know this. Taoism is not just practicing magic, but practicing thoughts. It is a spiritual realm, which has something in common with the essence of Buddhism. That’s right. I said that if you practice magic here, you must hurt yourself first.
My ancestor told me another thing, saying that in the underworld, the deeper the Taoism, the deeper the ghost magic. In fact, ghost magic is not all evil, but the evil ghosts have ruined their reputation. I thought to myself, you have been practicing here for more than 300 years, so your ghost magic is so deep that there is no rival, right? That just helped me solve the five big basins.
When I told him about the five large basins, he frowned and thought for a while before saying, "There are very few ghosts in the underworld who can break the three magic arrays of my Xi family's ghost shop and damage the magic bottle. I also saw the five black air in the stone tablet just now. They are five child ghosts!"
"Yes, yes, their cries sound like those of little children." Shen Bing said with his eyes wide open in horror.
The old ancestor nodded solemnly and said, "I understand. A ghost used the evil magic of the mortal world to create five big-headed ghosts and set up the Five Ghosts Moving Bureau..."
As soon as he said this, I slapped my thigh, stood up suddenly and said, "Yes, it must be the Five Ghosts Moving Bureau. Why didn't I think of it at first?"
"What did you think of? You just wanted me to help you lie to your mother." Shen Bing curled her lips.
Ah, I can't let her continue talking about this. It's not a glorious thing to lie to my mother in front of my ancestor. I quickly stood in front of her and said to my ancestor with a smile: "Grandpa, you are absolutely right. It is the Five Ghosts Moving Bureau. But, these five little ghosts are too powerful. How did they do it?"
