Seeing me concentrating on looking at an apricot kernel, Lu Fei came over. I handed him the almond kernel and said, "Take a look at this."
He looked at it for a long time and scratched his head and said, "Isn't this an apricot kernel? There is blood on it. Could it be that the man was playing with this thing just now, and our car happened to run over him, and he slipped into the ravine, but the apricot kernel was left behind?" The boy still had the ability to distinguish. After he finished speaking, he shook his head and felt that this was not the case.
Seeing that he didn't see the problem with the apricot kernel, I pointed at the blood stain and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this is a nosebleed from a practitioner."
Lu Fei was stunned, looked at me and said, "Is that man a sorcerer? Was he run over by a car, and his nose blood splattered on the apricot kernel? That's not right, the blood has dried up."
It seems that his master taught him orthodox Taoist magic, and never taught him about evil magic. So I explained: "There is an evil magic in Taoism called 'Apricot Corpse Technique'. Soak it with nose blood, face due east, chant the spell seven times at the hour of Mao, blow on it seven times, light six lamps, and six bowls of water, and place it in a secret room for sacrifice. After six days, it will be considered successful. When you encounter a situation, take out one and throw it down. Once you chant the spell, it will turn into a fake corpse that looks exactly like you."
Lu Fei immediately showed respect to me. Although he had some basic knowledge in Taoism, he knew very little about it. As soon as the people in the industry heard it, they knew that what I said was definitely not something made up. It was 100% a magic of the evil Taoist sect.
"You said the car ran over a fake corpse?" the boy asked me with a glare.
"Well, it was a sorcerer who had placed apricot kernels on the road. When we arrived, he immediately chanted a spell, and the apricot kernels turned into fake corpses, making us think that someone had been run over. With such a slippery road, it was certain that we would not be able to stop the car with the brakes. Fortunately, the big tree saved our lives!" I nodded.
"Which damn bastard wants to kill us? No wonder I've been so nervous today, as if something bad is going to happen." Lu Fei gritted his teeth and cursed, then asked me, "Could it be that bastard Zhang Yunfeng who did it?"
I looked down at the apricot kernel and said, "It's hard to say. In ancient times, Taoism was divided into many schools because good and evil could not coexist. Maoshan is the most authentic school. There is also the most famous Lingnan evil school, the Five Ghosts School, and then there is the Yunnan 'Bai Ling School'. Tan Qing should be a disciple of the Bai Ling School. These evil schools all understand these evil arts, including the Maoshan classics, which are recorded, but they are never used. However, many schools are hidden in various places, especially in the mountains. Maybe there are descendants of evil school sorcerers here."
Lu Fei nodded continuously, frowned and thought for a while before saying, "I almost beat that rapist to death back then. Who knows, he knew I was back, so he hired a sorcerer to kill me."
I think this is possible, because this case happened several years ago, and it would be much more troublesome to go through the legal process. Besides, even if he is sentenced, Lu Fei will only be sentenced to ten years at most, which is not enough for execution. This person has always held a grudge, so it is reasonable to want his life.
So he patted Lu Fei on the shoulder and said, "We know someone wants to harm us, so we just need to be on guard. It's not far from the village, we'll walk back and ask your master, and then we'll return to our town immediately."
Lu Fei agreed and followed me to call the driver. But when I looked back, the driver was gone. He was squatting on the side of the road. Would he get in the car and back it up? That would be courting death!
