In fact, Beiquan really didn't plan to take Wei Fuyuan with him, but he was scolded by his little boyfriend, so he couldn't refuse.
Wei Fuyuan didn't know how dangerous "going to the shadows" was, which made Jiang Nan'an react so fiercely, but instead of letting Beiquan take the risk alone, he could only wait by himself, except for fear If you can't do anything, then it's better to go with Beiquan and let the other party stay under your nose at all times.
Moreover, Wei Fuyuan actually knew Beiquan's character very well.
If there was only Beiquan alone, he might take a lot of risky behaviors to achieve his goals, but if he was by his side, Beiquan would be much more cautious before doing things, and he had to ensure that he could protect himself in every decision.
Although Wei Fuyuan doesn't know much about metaphysics, he knows that he is a safety rope tied to Beiquan. As long as he doesn't let go, Beiquan will not float to him like a broken kite. Go where you don't see.
"That's fine, Xiaowei, just go with me."
Beiquan thought for a moment, and finally made up his mind.
"However, since you are going too, then our preparations must be done more carefully."
Beiquan wrote a talisman to Wei Fuyuan, and the birth date on the talisman belonged to a deceased person.
This trick Beiquan taught Jiang Nan'an to use before.
At that time, Jiang Nan'an hid the yellow talisman with the characters of Su Lan's birthday in the body of the doll made of branches, and then tried to cover up the aura of the deity. In this way, in the eyes of the underworld, the wooden figurine would become Su Lan is gone.
"Does it really work?"
After Wei Fuyuan had a rough understanding of the principle of this talisman paper, he was still a little puzzled.
"Don't those ghosts in the underworld have eyes, so they will admit their mistakes?"
"Um."
Beiquan sprinkled a pinch of white powder in the yellow talisman, then folded it into a small triangle bag, smiling and nodding.
"That's right."
He explained:
"Because the people 'below' don't use their eyes to 'see' things, but to perceive the breath of the other person... If you have to describe it, the effect is probably the same as opening your eyes."
Beiquan stuffed the talisman paper bag into the inner pocket of Wei Fuyuan's coat.
"This talisman is wrapped with the ashes of the eight-character deity of the birthday, as well as some shady things such as rock powder and grave soil, so in the eyes of those 'things', you are a dead person."
Although Wei Fuyuan knew that Beiquan often had some strange techniques, he still felt a chill when he knew clearly that the small bag was actually ashes.
"… This… "
He resisted the urge to take out the talisman bag and tried to make his tone sound calmer:
"Can you tell me, whose ashes are... Whose ashes?"
Beiquan replied in seconds, "Of course it's mine."
Wei Fuyuan: "!!!"
His eyes were wide open, full of disbelief:
"You, you, what did you say!?"
"Didn't you read my memory?"
Beiquan replied:
"I died more than 600 years ago in my last life. Although the bones have never been corrupted in the Gathering Yin Ground, but after I entered this fleshly body, my previous body was useless, and naturally the dust returned to dust, and the earth returned to dust. It's soiled."
He smiled:
"Of course, the soil from the tomb was also taken from 'my' grave, so it's good to use it!"
His tone was too free and easy, as if he just said that he had dealt with a piece of expired pork, Wei Fuyuan didn't know how to react for a while.
Originally, Wei Fuyuan felt hairy when he heard that he was carrying ashes, but when he learned that the ashes belonged to Beiquan, his mentality was completely different.
"You... this person is really... "
control. Yan. Wei Fuyuan stretched out his hand and pressed his chest, feeling the little talisman inside through his clothes, his thoughts were extremely confused.
"How can you use your own ashes as materials!"
He made up his mind that after the end of the shadow, he would never return this talisman bag to Beiquan, but to... What should I do? He hasn't made up his mind yet.
"As the saying goes, the past is reincarnated and thrown away!"
Beiquan smiled and touched Wei Fuyuan's face, and then scratched his earlobe affectionately.
"Although I haven't crossed the Naihe Bridge and drank Meng Po soup, I'm still considered a person who died and was reborn. There's nothing I can't leave behind."
Wei Fuyuan opened his mouth.
He felt that there was something wrong with Beiquan's remarks, and wanted to refute it, but after thinking about it, he clearly never "died", how could he be from the standpoint of an ordinary person, who has a special experience like Beiquan. What about comments
So he closed his mouth angrily, didn't say anything, just silently held the little talisman bag hidden in his heart.
Beiquan was a little confused when he saw that his little boyfriend suddenly wilted for some reason, but he didn't ask any further, just took Wei Fuyuan's hand and said to him with a smile:
"Okay, we're ready to 'go down'."
&&& &&& &&&
When Beiquan brought Wei Fuyuan to the living room, Jiang Nan'an and Zhu Ling had already arranged the ceremony site for "walking over the shadows".
The preparation for the ceremony was very simple. There was only an incense table covered with yellow cloth and a candlestick.
Beiquan asked Jiang Nan'an to open the main door, and then took out the red wire that he never left, using the debris in the house as a fulcrum, and tied a "road" from the incense case to the outside of the street.
After all these preparations were done, Beiquan asked Wei Fuyuan to sit on a futon in front of the incense table, and he sat on the other futon next to him.
"Wait a minute, you and I keep going forward. No matter what you see or hear along the way, you must never look back, you know?"
While Beiquan explained the precautions to Wei Fuyuan, he pulled out a red thread and tied it to the wrists of the two.
"Also, after you get to the 'below', don't speak lightly, follow me firmly, and don't leave one step."
Wei Fuyuan looked down at the red rope tied to his wrist, and involuntarily thought of the word "Yue Lao Red String", he was delighted, his cheeks were slightly red, and he secretly regretted why it wasn't tied to his ring finger, otherwise it would be more like .
Seeing that Wei Fuyuan didn't respond, Beiquan couldn't help but ask again:
"Did you hear what I just said?"
Wei Fuyuan hurriedly drove the out of place Qi Si out of his mind and nodded vigorously:
"I heard it, I promise not to open my mouth, nor to leave you one step!"
Beiquan was satisfied.
He turned back and waved to Jiang Nan'an.
Comrade Xiao Jiang neatly turned off the light in the living room, then walked to the incense table in the dark, took out three thick sticks of incense sticks, and put it into the incense burner.
"This incense can burn for an hour."
Jiang Nan'an warned:
"Within an hour, you must come back."
Beiquan nodded, "I see."
Having said that, he turned out the Vientiane Pen, slashed his palm, and used blood as a medium to draw a talisman in mid-air.
After the spell was completed, Beiquan put the Qingguang Vientiane Pen back into his dantian, and then held Wei Fuyuan's hand. His voice was not loud, but his tone was firm:
"Are you ready?"
Wei Fuyuan turned his head to the side, and in the darkness, his eyes were amazingly bright.
He squeezed Beiquan's hand back, "Well, it's ready."
Beiquan curled his lips into a smile.
The next second, the blood-red spell in mid-air fell on the two of them.
Wei Fuyuan felt that the back of his head was hit by an invisible force, and his whole body suddenly "flyed" out of control.
—Fuck! !
At this moment, his heart was extremely broken.
This feeling is too familiar, isn't it exactly the same as Beiquan "shooting" him out every time!
However, this time, Wei Fuyuan just staggered forward two steps, and felt a pull from his wrist, pulling him back abruptly.
Wei Fuyuan turned back and found that Beiquan was standing behind him, his wrist stretched forward, and the red rope on his wrist stretched all the way to his own wrist, holding him without falling out.
Beiquan took two quick steps, caught up with Wei Fuyuan, and grabbed his hand.
"let's go."
He lifted his chin forward.
Wei Fuyuan raised his head following Beiquan's instructions, and was shocked to find that a sheep intestine trail appeared in front of him.
- What's the matter!
Wei Fuyuan was simply shocked.
He clearly remembered clearly that he was clearly in the living room of the "Santuchuan" broadcasting company!
He has lived here for nearly four months, but he has never seen such a dark, gut-wrenching path leading to nowhere!
Wei Fuyuan subconsciously wanted to look back to see if there was a familiar scene behind him.
However, just as his face was deflected, Beiquan squeezed his hand hard.
"You forgot what I told you?"
Wei Fuyuan quickly turned his head back, not daring to move any more.
"Go, remember every word I told you."
With that said, Beiquan opened his legs and led Wei Fuyuan to the long, deep and invisible path in front of him.
&&& &&& &&&
This was the strangest path Wei Fuyuan took when he was twenty-one years old.
It is called a "small road" because, whether it was at the time of departure or now, to the naked eye, the road under their feet looks winding and rugged, which perfectly interprets the term "sheep trail".
But when he really went up, Wei Fuyuan realized that the road was much wider than he felt.
Because he always feels that there are many "people" around him who come and go.
Saying "people" is actually not quite appropriate.
Because Wei Fuyuan is actually not quite sure whether the person passing by him is actually a "human".
Some of them have a "human" shape, some are more like a misty fog or a thin shadow, and even a lot of things with jagged outlines and twists and turns, Wei Fuyuan can't accurately describe their appearance - but no matter what , is definitely not what ordinary humans should look like!
Some of these "things" seem to carry a light source.
Judging from the shape and brightness, they are all misty and faint, and it is estimated that they should be lanterns, candles and the like.
Often the shadow of the "light" will move faster, and it will also attract those who are hurrying in the dark to chase, and will soon gather into a group until the "tails" completely block the little light.
