Night Lights

Chapter 30
A corpse is a body.

When the moon dies of old age, it rots into mud, but due to the method of feng shui mysterious burial, four corpses are not rotten; Corpses can be divided into dry and wet ones; dry corpses are the eight hateful evil spirits, and wet corpses are the eight vicious evil spirits. Because of the sound of eight obsidian evil spirits and the evil water of the Yellow Spring, they are buried in sealed coffins, so the shade of the corpse does not melt, and the bones of the corpse do not rot. ——Excerpted from Tongyin Eight Volumes of "Wordless Book of Heaven".

……

Bai Shibao turned over the old wordless book and looked at it, thinking why can't I see the writing on it?When I turned back, I met Lan Xin'er's eyes, paused, and suddenly thought of something, the two said in unison: "You (I) are dead..."

"Finally I touched the roots!"

Bai Shibao thought it's no wonder the master never understood the mysteries of this book all his life, and dared to say that this wordless old book is a ghost book written by the patriarch after his death!

How can mortals see the things written by ghosts? Poor Blind Zhang has used dog blood, chicken blood and human blood, and all kinds of blood sacrifices can't release the confinement in the book. It turns out that this book has no taboos at all!It was written for ghosts.

Bai Shibao remembered that when he and Zhang Xiazi went to the yin for the first time, the executioner once wrote a letter on the yellow paper, but he couldn’t see the content after returning to the sun. The blind man didn't think about it, how could he use the same method to read this ghost book?
No matter what Bai Shibao thought, he couldn't understand. He anxiously read the contents of the book, looked around for things, and said in his mouth: "Where is the water? I want water..."

"Are you thirsty?" Lan Xin'er asked.

Bai Shibao shook his head and said, "I'm going to boil a pot of water, then pour cold water into it, adjust it into yin and yang water, pour it on this book, and then I can read the words!"

Lan Xin'er sighed, grabbed Bai Shibao and said, "Why is it so troublesome, can't you go out of your way? When you get out of your body and become a ghost, can't you just read this book again?"

"..." Bai Shibao froze there, patted his head and laughed, "Why am I like Master? I figured out what to do and plunged into it, not knowing where to turn, with a single brain in my head... ..." After finishing speaking, he took out the spelled armored horse, black dog bone powder, and soul-binding red rope from his bosom, and placed them on the ground, all of which were magic weapons needed for the time of escape.

After taking stock of it, Bai Shibao frowned and said, "It still doesn't work, the blood steamed bun is missing!"

Looking at Bai Shibao's expression, Lan Xin'er was annoyed and funny, and said, "Don't be so troublesome, it really won't work, let me read it to you?"

"This one……"

Bai Shibao hesitated. After all, this old book was handed down from the ancestors of the Taoist sect. It might not be appropriate for other Taoist sects to read it. It was a coincidence that she accidentally read it before. Can't solve this knot.

Lan Xin'er also saw Bai Shibao's concerns, sneered, and said in her heart: Even if this poorly written book is full of hype, I don't care to read it!You'd better keep it as a baby!After thinking about it, seeing that Bai Shibao was still standing there in a daze, so worried that he couldn't help but asked, "Can I replace that bloody steamed bun with something else?"

"Master said, to feed that yin dog with blood steamed buns, it's all up to him to guide the way!"

"What a brain! You are just out of your body, and you are reading here. Do you need a yin dog to guide you? Do you need a yin dog to lead you to find a secluded place to read? When you come back, I will miss the time when I am still in the sun." !"

Bai Shibao was stunned for a moment, thinking that he was usually quite alert, why did he turn his head into a stupid pig in front of Lan Xin'er?
Bai Shibao arranged the black dog bone powder properly according to the seven stars, stretched the soul-binding red rope and tied it between his legs, then burned the Yin armor horse, and finally lay flat on the ground, and arranged the two shoes one by one. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.

……

"Hello!"

Feeling being pushed awake, Bai Shibao slightly opened his eyes.

Sitting beside her, Lan Xin'er pouted and complained, "You've been asleep for 10 minutes, why don't you wake up?"

Bai Shibao rubbed his sleepy eyes, yawned, stood up, saw his body lying flat on the ground, was overjoyed, and shouted: "It's done!" He hurriedly bent down to touch the book in his arms. An old book without words, held in trembling hands, looking at this nameless old book, my whole body is boiling with energy and blood, but my heart is full of mixed senses, trembling fingers, I suddenly turned to the first page...

Impressively saw a few big characters in thick ink, without punctuation to separate the sentences, it said: This book records all secret methods, if anyone who snoops will fall into a place where he will never recover.

Bai Shibao said in surprise: "Kongcheng Lingdaozi? Master Zouyin Patriarch!"

Turning backwards, the pages are written in thick ink, the writing is vigorous, the handwriting can't contain a thousand words, and all the square and round symbols are recorded under the words. Turning the page to the front page, looking intently, trembling with excitement, staring at the words recorded on this page, read with a hoarse voice and trembling:
"There are hundreds of thousands of things in the sky; there are three schools of heaven, the sun, moon and stars; three schools of earth, rivers, seas and mountains; three schools of Tao, the enlightenment of mind, body, and law; the creation of heaven and creation, ghosts and ghosts; the combination of heaven and earth, and the inversion of yin and yang. ;Demon spirits breed, demons dance wildly; gods and men are killed, ghosts and ghosts are wiped out..."

At this moment, Bai Shibao felt the blood vessels in his body swell, as if a turbulent current was rushing in his body, like wild horses running wild, his face was flushed in an instant, his body was dripping with sweat, and he said to himself: "The method shown in this book, Words are pearls, profound and long, need to be carefully comprehended and practiced a lot!"

Lan Xin'er looked at Bai Shibao's strange expression from the side, feeling that Bai Shibao was fascinated by this ghost book, so she hurriedly got up and ran over to close the book with a snap.

"What are you doing?" Bai Shibao's eyes were bloodshot.

Lan Xin'er said anxiously: "Stop reading, be careful not to be overwhelmed by this ghost book!"

"This book is an ancestral thing of my Daoist sect. I can read it whenever I want, and you don't have to worry about it..." Bai Shibao pushed Lan Xin'er away, holding the ghost book and reading it like a fascination.

At this time, Bai Shibao's eyes were bloodshot, and the veins on his head were protruding. He completely lost his mind, holding the ghost book and sprinting around in circles from time to time, rolling and crawling on the ground from time to time, his behavior was extremely terrifying.

"This ghost book is extraordinary. It can confuse people's hearts and make him obsessed with it. If you don't find a way to stop him quickly, I'm afraid he will fall into the devil's pool and be unable to extricate himself in the end!"

After thinking about it, Lan Xin'er stretched out her sleeves hastily, pulled the black snake out, pinched the snake's head and said to it: "Good snake, it's all up to you!" Sliding down to the ground, he swam and crawled towards Bai Shibao.

Bai Shibao's mind was completely attracted by the words in the book, but he didn't notice a poisonous snake crawling up his thigh. Just as he saw the end of the page, when he turned the page, a snake's head popped out, bared its fangs, and opened its mouth wide. , A stream of poison shot out towards Bai Shibao's eyes!

"what……"

Bai Shibao's eyes were pitch black, his eyes were burning and aching, as if he had been poured half a catty of chili water, he dropped the ghost book, covered his eyes with both hands, and rolled over on the spot biting his teeth.

"I'm sorry, in order not to let you be fascinated by that ghost book, I can only do this trick!"

"It hurts! My eyes are blind!"

Bai Shibao rolled and crawled on the ground, not knowing what to do with the pain, wishing he could find a place to get in.

"Go back to your body, I'll detoxify you!" Lan Xin'er shouted.

After Bai Shibao heard Lan Xin'er's words, he scratched the ground with both hands, making deep scratches, then scratched to the left, and touched his own body. Enduring the severe pain, Bai Shibao jumped onto the body, bang With a sound, the soul went back into the body.

Pain, eyes are still burning pain.

When Bai Shibao woke up, the first thing he felt was the pain in his eyes. He tried to open them, but it was pitch black and he couldn't see anything around him. He was anxious and panicked, "Are my eyes blind?"

"You're not blind, you just got my snake venom, I'll apply an antidote to you!"

Lan Xin'er took out a pack of snake tooth powder from her bosom, touched two branches on the ground, peeled off the bark, smashed them with stones, stained the snake tooth powder on Bai Shibao's eyes, and said, "Don't move around, You will die if the venom spreads all over your body..."

"Why did you poison my eyes?" Bai Shibao said angrily.

"Good intentions are not rewarded! It's your fate to be blinded by my poison, otherwise you have already been poisoned by that ghost book!"

"What do you mean by poisonous heart?" Bai Shibao didn't seem to know what happened just now.

"What kind of broken book was handed down by your ancestors? Isn't it obviously hurting you! You don't know how scary you were just now. Fortunately, I didn't read it carefully and threw it away..."

Lan Xin'er raised her hands and gesticulated, and repeated the process to Bai Shibao with embellishment, but Bai Shibao thought to himself: How can a patriarch frame his disciples and grandchildren?Maybe I'm using the wrong method?But just now I clearly saw the contents of the book, so how could I lose my mind?What is wrong?
"...Besides, there is no one like you who reads books. You have to proceed step by step. Reading is the same as refining Gu. If you are thinking about raising big bugs before the small bugs are raised well, isn't it asking for trouble? You know, the magic of refining Gu, every time you enter The first realm is even more dangerous, don't be eager for quick success..." Lan Xin'er persuaded Bai Shibao earnestly.

Bai Shibao asked, "Where is that book?"

"What? Are you still thinking about it?"

"This is handed down to me by my master, and I must not lose it. I don't want to be like my master, unable to understand the mysteries of this book for the rest of my life, leaving lifelong regrets after my death."

Lan Xin'er sighed, stood up helplessly, picked up the old book with no characters, threw it to Bai Shibao, and said angrily: "You should take care of this ghost book! Don't lose it, so as not to leave it behind after death." Sorry..."

Bai Shibao put the old book into his pocket, and asked Lan Xin'er, "When will my eyes be healed? I don't think I'm going to be blind like Master!"

Lan Xin'er was shocked when she heard this, and hurriedly asked: "You said your master is blind?"

Bai Shibao was taken aback for a moment, and after a moment, he said in surprise, "You mean, his eyes..."

"Isn't it? Then why is he blind?" Lan Xin'er asked.

"Nonsense, my master practiced the 'ghost eye pupil' that can see ghosts, so he is not blind!"

"Even you can guess that your soul is out of your body to read this book, can your master really not think of it?"

Bai Shibao was completely stunned, completely dumbfounded, and said in his heart: "Could it be that Master lied to me?"
