Chapter 52: Exorcism
I smiled. It's been a long time since I've seen someone swear and swear before they say anything, fearing that they're bragging. Niu Da's simplicity also made me like him even more.
Seeing that I didn't say anything, Niu Da continued, "That's not all. Xiao Wang passed out as soon as he was sent to the hospital. The doctor tried to save him all night and came to the conclusion that he was in acute shock! He is now a vegetable! And the next day, someone complained about this car and refused to take passengers. But I didn't even touch it at night. Later, we checked the surveillance! Oh my goodness, this car was running on its own, without even a driver, just wandering around the streets!"
Niu Da shuddered as he spoke, obviously still frightened.
"Master Niu, if it's like this, why are you still driving this car?" I asked.
"Alas! Life forces me to do this! What else can I do if I don't drive? Besides, I have to support my family. I was unwilling to get on this bus at first. But the manager said, this is the only bus, if you don't get on, you have to resign! I had no choice but to get on the bus, but the manager also promised that I can only drive during the day."
"Master Niu, after these things happened, didn't you ask people from the Dongmen Metaphysical Society to take a look?" I asked puzzledly.
Once such a thing is discovered, the company's managers must take measures. To leave it alone like this is simply not taking human life seriously!
"Alas! To be honest, I asked my manager to find someone to take a look at the Metaphysics Society, but my manager refused to believe it. He said those people were all charlatans and there were no ghosts in broad daylight. Besides, I only make a few thousand dollars a month, and it would cost tens of thousands to hire those experts. I think it's better to just run away."
"Master Niu, I won't hide it from you. I am from the Dongmen Metaphysics Society. My name is Ni Ge. Please ask for a leave from work and take me to see Xiao Wang in the hospital first."
Niu Da heard what I said and slammed on the brakes. He turned his head and looked at me in confusion: "Brother, this is not a joke. You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want."
I smiled bitterly and shook my head. My age did not look like that of a sage with a youthful appearance. I did not have any business cards or anything like that. Even if I had any, I guessed that Niu Da would not take me seriously, and might even think I was a liar.
"Master Niu, look at my palms." I had no choice but to spread out my hands.
"There's nothing on my palms!" Niu Da looked at my hands and became even more confused. Then he suddenly exclaimed: "Hey! Brother, is this a magic trick?"
Niu Da actually thought that the Water and Fire Technique was a magic trick. I couldn't help but smile bitterly, put away my spiritual power, and stared at Niu Da with my eyes wide open.
"Broad eyebrows and thick lips indicate an open-minded person. A receding forehead indicates a declining parental palace, indicating that the person will be parentless at the age of 30. A cattle herder is in the middle, indicating a harmonious relationship between husband and wife. Peach blossom eyes indicate that the offspring are yin, indicating that the person will be a daughter. A three-inch forehead with a broken head pattern indicates that a bloody disaster is imminent. Master Niu, you can no longer drive this car, or else there will be a bloody disaster within three days."
Niu Da's eyes grew bigger and bigger, staring at me with a frown on his face. When I finished the last sentence, he suddenly became a little flustered.
"Brother, you didn't investigate me specifically to cheat me, did you? I'm just a worker with no money or power. You can't get any benefit from me!"
Alas! I sighed and said, "Master Niu, please listen to my advice today. Don't wait until seven o'clock. Go home at six o'clock. Otherwise, there will be accidents."
I stood up and prepared to get off the bus. I had already said this. If the other party refused, it would only mean that we were not destined to be together, and there was not much cause and effect to get involved. In fact, if it wasn't for Niu Da paying for my fare. In addition, I would not care about these things.
You must know that everything in the world is caused by cause and effect. The troubles you have today may have been caused yesterday, or more than a decade ago. Forcibly interrupting someone is also against the laws of nature.
"Wait, brother, I believe you." Niu Da looked at me and stood up, as if he had made up his mind and said.
I nodded and looked at Niu Da. There was a hint of complexity in my eyes. I couldn't see any problem with Niu Da's face, and he didn't look like he would die young. But the yin energy that only appeared in dead people made me puzzled.
"Wait, Master Ni!" When Niu Da saw that I was really about to leave, he suddenly panicked and even changed the way he addressed me to a respectful title.
"Master Ni, since you said you were willing to help me, I am a rough man. Please forgive my rashness. I will take a leave and take your master to the hospital. However, I don't have much money. How much do you think I will charge?"
Niu Da saw me stop and said in a low voice with some embarrassment.
"You have already paid the fee. Since I said so before, let's go!" I turned around and sat behind Niu Da again.
Niu Da looked at me, gritted his teeth, and drove straight to the hospital.
"Master Ni, Xiao Wang is now in the general intensive care unit. It has been a month. Oh! Our manager has said that he will stop paying for Xiao Wang's medical expenses. Oh, Xiao Wang is not married, and he has parents in their sixties. I really don't know what they will do with their lives in the future."
I didn't respond. After lying there for a month, I had already exceeded the seven-day deadline for my soul to return to its original state. The outcome was already predetermined.
The Rehabilitation Hospital is a medium-sized hospital, and the Li Xuan Society is five or six stops away.
Niu Da drove the bus and occupied four parking spaces in front of the hospital gate in a very domineering manner.
After getting off the car, he took me straight to the inpatient department in a hurry.
In the ICU on the second floor, Xiao Wang was lying alone. Next to him was a white-haired old lady. Looking through the window, Xiao Wang's brows were tightly knitted. His eyes were still rolling. It seemed like he was dreaming .
I frowned and just took a look, then stopped.
"Master Ni, aren't you going in?" Niu Da asked in confusion.
"Niu Da, Xiao Wang may be saved. Go out and buy seven candles, yellow paper, cinnabar, and a wolf-hair brush right now."
Niu Da was stunned for a moment, then turned and ran away, disappearing in the corridor in a moment.
I stood at the window, staring at Xiao Wang on the bed. Xiao Wang closed his eyes, and his face was covered with a faint layer of black air. The black air flowed out from Xiao Wang's nose, surrounded his cheeks, slowly extended upwards, and stopped at the Baihui point on the top of his head. The edge of the black air kept fluctuating.
It only took Niu Da five minutes to come back panting, holding a bag in his hand and handing it over directly: "Ni, Master Ni, I've bought the things, but the wolf-hair brushes and cinnabar are not sold nearby, so I bought red ink and ordinary brushes. Do you think they are okay?"
I frowned and said nothing. These things are considered side doors, and they are indeed not available in a hurry. Unfortunately, time is running out. Once the black energy on Xiao Wang's face passes Baihui, there will be no hope.
"Niu Da, help me watch and don't let anyone get close."
"Don't worry, Mr. Ni." Niu Da responded and stood aside with his chest puffed out.
I bent down and took out the yellow paper and spread it on the ground. This yellow paper was the common paper for the dead on the street. When it was spread out, it was half a foot in size. I unscrewed the ink bottle, picked up the brush, dipped it in ink, and used my spiritual power to draw a spell to suppress evil on the yellow paper.
When the spell was finished, a flash of light appeared on the yellow paper. The spell was actually successful!
I originally planned to just make it half-finished. Now it seems that I was overthinking. In fact, the talisman does not need so much attention. In the final analysis, the talisman is a magic array. Infuse spiritual power into it. The talisman is the one that can contain spiritual power. This inadvertently gave me another choice.
I picked up the talisman and handed it to Niu Da: "Niu Da, listen to me, Xiao Wang is in danger now. When you go in, don't show this talisman to him. Hide the talisman and walk to him. Cover his face with the talisman very quickly. Remember, no matter what happens, this talisman cannot fall."
Niu Da nodded solemnly, took the talisman, opened the door and walked in.
"It's Niu Da!" The sound of the door opening made the old lady next shout out in surprise.
"It's my aunt, I came to see Xiao Wang." Niu Da held the talisman with his hands behind his back and greeted the old lady with a smile on his face.
"Niu Da, what did the company say? The hospital said that if they don't renew the subscription, they will stop taking the medicine tomorrow." The old lady looked at Niu Da with hope in her eyes while crying.
Niu Da smiled bitterly: "Auntie, don't worry, I will fight for Brother Xiao Wang no matter what. How is Brother Xiao Wang now? What did the doctor say?"
While Niu Da was talking to the old lady with his hands behind his back, he had already walked to Xiao Wang's side. He quickly took out the talisman and stuck it on Xiao Wang's face.
"Ah!" Xiao Wang let out a shrill scream. His body, which was originally considered a vegetative state by the hospital, suddenly struggled violently at this moment. He reached out to grab the talisman on his face. He bent his legs and was about to kick Niu Da's chest.
Niu Da turned sideways and hid behind Xiao Wang, holding the talisman tightly with both hands.
"Oh! Niu Da, what are you doing? Let go!" The old lady was anxious and was about to rush over.
At this moment, I kicked the door open, rushed over, grabbed the old lady and yelled, "Old lady, don't be impulsive, we are here to save your son!"
The old lady was stunned for a moment, then turned around and saw a young man in his twenties, which made her even more confused.
Time is running out, and I don't have time to change this old lady to explain it clearly. Take out the candle, use the fireball technique to light it, and place it on the ground in the Big Dipper formation.
"What a sin! What a sin! My son has woken up! What are you doing? You are killing people! There is no law!"
At this time, the old lady rushed over and hugged me.
Xiao Wang struggled more and more, his head twisted 60 degrees. His cervical vertebrae cracked. If Niu Da hadn't held him tightly, his face would have been completely twisted backwards.
I didn't care about anything else and just dragged the old lady straight over there.
"The world is clear, yin and yang are separated. Ghosts have their own ways, and humans have their own laws. Decide for me!"
