Chapter 283 The Resurrected Warrior Ice Gone Again
The sky in the afternoon was a bit gloomy. I don't know if it was because of the approaching heavy rain, or because of the rumors about Qiandu Town's death claim. It always made people feel that the whole Qiandu Town seemed to be shrouded in a gloomy and gray atmosphere.

Gray sky, gray ground, gray house, gray pedestrians...

gray world...

Two consecutive days of murders made Qiandu Town a bit lifeless.Not many people are willing to go out during the day, even those who have to go out to work and earn money will hurry past with their heads down, or look behind them from time to time to see if there is anything following them.Some residents even moved their families to relatives' homes early in the morning. A rumor that thousands of souls were dying caused the whole town to panic.Even at night, the whole town is so quiet that people feel chills in the bone marrow.

In Qiandu Town, after 500 years of peace, the nightmare came again.

Outside the scene of the crime, conspicuous yellow police lines surrounded the house, but there were very few policemen standing guard outside, less than ten people in total, and the house where the murder was committed was even more empty. As for the corpses, they were taken away by the forensic doctor early in the morning.This is a rare phenomenon. When a murder case occurs, there is no police to take care of it. Instead, the people who come in and out are all in casual clothes. There are all kinds of people, men, women, old and young. They don't look like they would be policemen. .Some people even speculated whether they were a newly established reasoning team, a new department dedicated to helping the police reason and solve crimes?Or was it the police who thought they were incapable of solving the case and had specially hired them to solve the case?It's right to think about it, this is the life of a thousand souls, no matter how powerful the police are, can they deal with those evil spirits?Are these people priests?So for a while, rumors spread everywhere, and the more they spread, the more mysterious they became. There are all kinds of versions.Some people even pestered those who could enter the house of the murder case, wanting Zhang Fu to keep them safe.

like this moment...

"Master, please do me a favor, give me a talisman..." At this moment, the will-o'-the-wisp is entangled by more than a dozen neighbors who live next door, just to ask him for a talisman that can drive away ghosts. thing.

Ghost Fire grabbed her hair anxiously, and said with a bitter face, "Elder Sister, I'm really not a Taoist priest."

An older middle-aged woman grabbed the corner of his clothes and refused to let go. She said anxiously: "Master, don't lie to me. You are not a Taoist priest? Can the police let you in if you are not a Taoist priest?"

Will-o'-the-wisp said dumbfounded: "I'm here to investigate the case."

"Even if the police don't check, what else can you investigate? This is killing a thousand ghosts. Except for Taoist priests with superb mana, who would dare to touch that house?"

Another middle-aged woman who was younger next to him answered, "That's right, Master. I know you have scruples, don't worry, our mouths are very strict and we won't speak nonsense. You see, this matter has caused us The whole family is flustered, and they dare not live any longer. Would you please do me a favor and give Zhang a stronger talisman?"

The ghost fire sighed helplessly, at this moment he really admired Jin Gang for his foresight, and rushed into the house as soon as the car stopped.When the ghost fire locked the door and got out of the car, they were already stopped by the neighbors who lived next door to the murder scene.These people all believed that he was a Taoist priest with high magic power, and they couldn't listen to any explanations, which really annoyed him.

Just when the will-o'-the-wisp was in great distress, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a black off-road vehicle approaching in the distance.He rolled his eyes, pointed at the car with joy and said, "Look quickly, it's that car. There is a man and a woman in that car, both of whom are very powerful celestial masters. I'm just giving They do errands, so if you want a talisman, you have to go with them."

These few residents didn't believe the words of the will-o'-the-wisps at first, but the black off-road vehicle soon stopped beside them.Through the windshield of the front row, one could clearly see a man and a woman sitting in the front seat.I don't know who took the lead first, so several residents swarmed up and surrounded the off-road vehicle with a whoosh before the door was opened. the door.

Sitting in the car, Baibian and Shuirou looked at each other, and they saw the dozen or so people arguing around the will-o'-the-wisp from a long distance away.Later, the ghost fire seemed to be very happy to point at their car, and said something, and then these people swarmed over without waiting for the car to stop.

As soon as Shuirou opened the car door, he was immediately surrounded by several people, talking nonsense, and Shuirou also listened in a daze. After listening for a long time, he didn't understand what they were talking about. What symbol do you want.

Bai Ke next to him was even worse, and he was directly opened the door by this group of people. Fortunately, these people asked him for something, and they didn't pull him out of the car aggressively, but blocked the door to prevent him from getting out of the car. Shouting: "Tianshi, give Zhang Fu..."

"Heavenly Master, my little devil... ah bah, good luck. Our children don't dare to sleep at night, please do me a favor..."

"Master of Heaven..."

Baibian and Shuirou didn't know what happened, they looked at these people in a daze, until they understood that these people regarded the three of them as celestial masters to exorcise ghosts, and came to keep safe Fu Shi also had a dumbfounding look on his face.

Baibian shouted loudly: "I am not a celestial master, we are the police..."

But the ever-changing voice was immediately overshadowed by this group of people: "Oh, celestial master, don't lie to us anymore. The celestial master in front has already told us that you are very powerful celestial masters..."

"Heavenly Master..."

"Master of Heaven..."

Bai Bian yelled and had a headache. After a long time, it turned out to be the ghost of the ghost fire. No wonder he just "smiled back" at them before entering the room, and he still smiled so weirdly.

When Baibian and Shuirou were helplessly entangled by this group of people, Chu Yuan opened the car door without saying a word, got out of the car, and walked straight to the house.An aunt who was squeezed outside saw the opportunity quickly, and when she saw Chu Yuan coming out, she hurriedly shouted: "There is a celestial master here!" After speaking, she quickly reached out and grabbed Chu Yuan's sleeve to prevent him from escaping.But just before the aunt asked for a talisman in the future, Chu Yuan turned around and looked at her with indifferent eyes.When she met Chu Yuan's eyes, she froze for a moment, then slowly let go of her hand and let Chu Yuan leave.

Seeing Chu Yuan walking towards the house, a middle-aged woman next to her pulled the aunt and blamed her: "Why did you let him go?"

"His eyes..." The aunt said with a confused expression, "His eyes..."

The middle-aged woman said angrily: "What happened to his eyes? Could it be that he is blind?"

The aunt shook her head and said: "I don't know, but his eyes... It seems that when he looks at me, I suddenly seem to become very cold."

"Oh!" The middle-aged woman clapped her palms and shouted: "That must be a tall man. I heard people say that when those really tall men stare at you, they will make you feel very scared. What is that called?" It looks... like the aura of an expert."

"Oh." The aunt also stomped her feet, yelling regretfully, "Why am I so foolish to let such an expert go."

"It's okay, there are still two people here. They are all together, and they will definitely not be far behind. Besides, he must come out after entering the house. Let's wait here."

"Yes, yes." The aunt nodded and joined the team that was entangled with Baibian and Shuirou.

The police standing guard not far away just stood and watched. For some reason, no one came up to stop it.Perhaps their job is to prevent unrelated people from entering the scene, and ignore everything else.Or maybe it's because they don't want to mess with these residents. People living in villages are different from people in cities. If someone offends someone in the city, at most his relatives and friends will come to seek revenge and make trouble.But if you offend someone in the village, it is likely that the whole village will start and the whole village will chase you and beat you.This may also be a symbol of unity. After all, in the city, many people don't even know the name of the neighbor who has lived opposite each other for many years, and they have not even said hello to each other for so many years. How can anyone help you.No wonder some old people often say that today's high-rise buildings not only separate the distance between people, but also separate people's hearts.

Here, Baibian and Shuirou were trapped by the crowd and couldn't get out of it, and when someone outside happened to pass by and saw such a crowd of people crowded together, they came over curiously to have a look.After learning that they were two powerful Taoist priests, they immediately ran back and called their family and neighbors to ask for amulets. As a result, the crowd grew bigger and bigger.

This cannot be blamed on their selfishness, human nature is inherently selfish.Just like a child, if you give him a big pie, he will happily take it away.But when you turn around and tell him that you want him to give you some pie, he will definitely not do it.It can be seen from this that people, from birth, come into this world with selfishness.

There is an old saying in Longguo that it is none of your business and should be held high.Things didn't happen to them, and people kept on the sidelines.It seems that there are people who are robbed on the road, how many people are really desperate and brave?But if he was robbed by someone, he would definitely chase after him even if he didn't want his life.Just like these residents, if this incident happened in another town, I believe none of them would be so enthusiastic about pestering the two of them.But now their lives have been threatened, and the appearance of the Dragon Soul is like a life-saving straw, who would be willing to let go easily?
"Stop!" Baibian ran into the same trouble as the ghost fire, how could he explain that these people just didn't listen, and they had already determined that they were Taoist priests with superb mana.Bai Bian was very annoying, and shouted loudly: "Do you really want to exorcise ghosts?"

These residents chattered and said, "It's not exorcising ghosts, no, it's exorcising ghosts... Sigh, master, we just want to keep our family safe..."

"That's right. These unjust ghosts are pretty pitiful. They haven't been able to reincarnate after so many years. But they're pitiful, and they can't always come out to harm people, right?"

……

Bai Bian sighed and said: "Okay, I will teach you a method, but due to the rules of the teacher, don't talk about the method I taught you."

The residents immediately nodded together and said: "Master, don't worry, our mouth is very strict."

"Master, I swear to God, if I dare to talk about the methods taught by the master, I will..."

"Grandmaster……"

"Okay, okay." Baibian pressed his hands and whispered: "Actually, the method is also very simple, that is, you put a brazier at the door before going to bed at night. Put as much carbon as possible in it. It is best to ensure that the fire Burned till dawn."

The residents talked a lot and said, "Master, it's okay to burn the brazier. But it's impossible to keep the fire burning until dawn if people don't watch from the side."

"That's right, master, why don't you reveal a little more. Tell us how to keep the fire burning until dawn..."

Bai Bian held up his hands and said, "Everyone knows that our Dragon Kingdom has the rules of 'stepping on the red' and 'crossing the brazier' since ancient times. But do you know the real meaning of these steps on the red and crossing the brazier?"

The residents looked at each other and said, "Isn't it driving away the bad luck?"

Bai Bian shook his head and laughed: "It's not that simple. It includes many theories, such as Yin-Yang and Five Elements, and the Book of Changes. I won't say much about these, but let's talk about the ones that are easiest for everyone to understand. Actually... ...Uh..." Bai Bian scratched his cheek, thought for a while and continued: "Actually, fire belongs to the position of Zhengyang in the five elements. Yin and yang are born and restrained. If there is yin, there must be yang, and if there is yang, there must be yin ...And then, Yang, do you know? Why do ghosts dare not come out in the daytime? Because of the sun, they belong to Yin and are in the Zhengyin position, and the sun belongs to Yang and are in the Zhengyang position. Naturally, they dare not come out to do bad things. Harmful. Uh... what's more, that stepping on the red, stepping over the brazier, is actually attacking the yin with the yang, and keeping the yin and qi out of the body. Do you understand? So, the same reason , put a brazier at the door, as long as the fire is not extinguished at night, naturally nothing dares to come in. Ah, that’s it.”

One of the old men, who was over half a century old, clapped his hands fiercely, and said excitedly: "You are indeed worthy of being a celestial master, I understand, I understand. Everyone hurry up and buy a brazier, and don't hinder the celestial master's work anymore."

After the residents thanked Bai Bian one by one and dispersed, Bai Bian wiped off his cold sweat and hurriedly dragged Shui Rou into the house.

Shui Rou asked in a low voice: "When did you understand these things?"

Bai Bian also replied in a low voice: "I don't understand."

"I don't understand what you said just now... is it logical?"

Bai Bian looked to the side, lowered his voice again and said, "I'm talking nonsense, actually I don't even know what I'm talking about just now."

Shuirou was furious about it, rolled her eyes at him and said angrily, "Be careful of causing a fire."

"Hey, it's better than being entangled and unable to do anything. Go in quickly, they've checked everything, and we have nothing left to investigate." Saying that, Bai Bian pulled Shuirou into the house quickly.But Bai Bian didn't know, he just made up a nonsense just to get away, and he spread it to ten, ten to hundreds, and only a few families lit the brazier that night, and the next day it became everyone in the town. Light a brazier in front of your house at night.Many years later, every household in Qiandu Town will light a brazier for three consecutive days during these few days every year, which is called the "Fire Festival", and it has formed a beautiful landscape in Qiandu Town.But how this "fire festival" came about, no one can say clearly.Some people say that lighting the brazier can exorcise ghosts and avoid evil spirits, while others say that it is to light the street lamps for those lonely and wild ghosts and guide them to reincarnate.In short, there are different opinions, and what's more, they even said that it was Lord Huodexing who went down to earth to help Qiandu Town, and drove away more than a thousand wronged souls with the real fire of Samadhi, so there was such a thing as the "prosperous fire festival" and so on.
