It was a windy and dark night, and I felt a little scared standing alone outside the City God Temple.
After waiting for a while, I looked at my watch and it was already past eleven o'clock, but there was still no movement, and the ancestor did not send me any information. I looked around and thought, could it be that the underworld was in chaos again
Just when I was getting anxious, I suddenly heard a "creaking" sound, which was particularly eerie. In the dark night, especially in front of the City God Temple, goose bumps appeared all over my body. I quickly took out a small flashlight and shone it on the door of the City God Temple. Sure enough, the temple door was open. It opened without wind, so there must be evil spirits!
"Whoosh" a gust of cold wind blew out from the door and brushed against my body, making me shudder all over. A piece of yellow paper floated out of the temple with the wind and slowly landed in front of my feet. I picked it up and saw a few lines of small words written on it: "The souls of the deceased are received ten feet north of the City God Temple. Use the soul-guiding talisman to attract them to follow you, and chant the way ahead. Don't make any mistakes!"
This is the letter from my ancestors. I hurriedly put it in my pocket, took out the soul-guiding talisman and hurriedly walked north. I counted my steps and found that it was an open space about ten feet away. I looked around and found that according to Qimen Dunjia, this should be the location of the gate of life. That's it.
As soon as he stood still, he saw a black gas coming out from the ground, which turned into several ghosts in an instant. There were exactly six of them, and they all looked dull. They must have drunk Meng Po soup, and now all their memories of their past lives have been wiped out, and they have returned to the chaotic state before they were born.
I immediately perked up, pinched the soul-calling talisman between my fingers, and whispered two soul-calling spells. The yellow talisman burned. When they saw the fire, their dull eyes suddenly lit up, and they all turned to me. The talisman fire went out instantly, but they were already led by the soul-calling talisman. I burned a path-opening talisman while chanting the path-opening spell and walked forward. Several ghosts followed obediently behind me. It looked like a corpse-driving, except that they walked without making any sound, and did not make the creepy "thump thump" sound.
Why use the way-clearing spell? That's because the ghosts crossing the bridge are now as old as babies, and are easily robbed by wild ghosts. Ghost hearts are a great tonic. Fortunately, I took a remote path all the way. I didn't meet any pedestrians or get into any trouble after leaving the county town. I walked back along the fields to Shangcheng Town. It was late at night, and there would be no one in the fields.
It took an hour's walk to reach town, and it was already past midnight.
I knocked on the door of the shop and found Shen Bing waiting like an ant on a hot pot. She quickly pulled me in, but found six ghosts following behind her. She was so scared that she stuck out her tongue and ran to the shelf. I closed the door and asked Shen Bing to be ready. When the child came, she had to take down the steamer immediately.
The ghosts came with instructions from the underworld. Although they missed the time, it was still easy for them to possess the child. I asked them to stand in front of the cage, and I pushed them from behind to send them into the child's body. I don't know if they were born in the wrong body. Finally, there was only one ghost left, but there was one child missing. We had to hurry to find Bai Xinyu. So I put the ghost in a glass bottle and put it together with the magic bottle.
The children came back to life one by one, which made Shen Bing very busy. She picked them up and wrapped them in a quilt that she had prepared in advance. The crying of the little ones was so loud that we were at a loss. If the crying of so many children in the middle of the night could be heard, the neighbors nearby would be scared.
