Chapter 59: Five Ghost Locks
I took out two leaves of moxa and tied them on Lin Yuxi's forehead with a red string, but the leaves fell off in panic and became the target of the infant spirit. I casually stuck the moxa leaves on my forehead and gently opened the door. Suddenly, a cold wind rushed out from the crack of the door and blew into my arms. I felt like I was not wearing any clothes, it was cold!
Although the two doors were opened almost without making any sound, I saw a glimmer of light in the yard disappear immediately. My heart was pounding. The other party had already noticed and turned off the lights in the house in time.
I didn't dare to pause, and pulled Lin Yuxi quickly through the doorway and followed into the yard. In late autumn, the ground was covered with fallen leaves, which rustled in the wind. Apart from that, the entire yard, including the house, was pitch black, and no sound could be heard.
But I know there is someone in the house, and there is also a little ghost!
Lin Yuxi was quite courageous even though she didn't see any ghosts. She was calmer than me. She grabbed my right arm and pulled it, then pointed to the window, meaning that there must be an ambush at the door, just like when we went to Cheng Guaizi's house, we should enter through the window. But I felt something was wrong. This person was far from being comparable to Cheng Guaizi. Since he found us coming in, he would not give us any chance.
I shook my head at her and was thinking about what to do when the door creaked with a creepy sound and slowly opened inward. The scene was so eerie and strange!
The moment the door opened, the lights suddenly came on inside, and a man sat on a chair in front of the door. He looked familiar and fat. I almost fainted when I took a closer look. It was Xiao Pang. But this guy was tied up, with a towel stuffed in his mouth and something hanging around his neck, which surprised us both.
That thing is the wooden barrel!
I closed my left eye and stared at him with my right eye. Mu Zun's bulging eyes flashed green light, and a layer of black air wrapped around his entire body. It was obvious that the little ghost had returned to his place.
Lin Yuxi was surprised and said: "Why is Xiaopang here? Oh no, that black box..."
Needless to say, the other party must have kidnapped Xiao Pang and the black box had long been in their pocket. It was useless to say anything now. The other party was just trying to force us to surrender to the police and admit that we had killed someone.
"Hehehe..." A low and strange sneer suddenly sounded in the room. I guess he might be the shadow in the chicken farm and the murderer who killed Cheng Guaizi. "I underestimated you, a fortune teller, and almost let you find out the truth. But you also underestimated me. Don't think you can catch me by chasing me here. Hehe, I expected you to chase me here, so I asked your friends to come here in advance. There is a wooden bottle of infant spirits hanging around his neck. I have just made a 'Yin Yang Knot' for them. If you dare to take off the bottle, he will die immediately!"
After hearing this, I couldn't help but get furious. This bastard is too vicious. But Xiaopang's life is in his hands, so he can't do anything rash now. It's not like there's no other way to deal with this bastard, so I held back my anger for now.
Lin Yuxi asked in confusion: "What is the Yin-Yang knot all about?"
I said indignantly, "It means to bind the two souls together. Although they are separated by Yin and Yang, their souls help each other and prosper together. Don't even think about untying this Yin and Yang knot in your lifetime. If you mess with the little ghost, Xiao Pang will die!"
"Ah! So vicious?!" Lin Yuxi was so shocked that her mouth opened wide.
The man in the room laughed proudly, and then said, "You know a lot as a fortune teller, but compared to me, your skills are not even worthy of carrying my shoes. Boy, you just have to accept your fate. If you go to the police station now and turn yourself in and admit that you did everything, if it satisfies me, I will not only release the fat guy, but also help him untie the Yin-Yang knot."
Lin Yuxi looked up at me, then turned back to the door and said with gritted teeth: "This has nothing to do with them. I'm going to the police station to report the case. Please let them go!"
"If I had known this would happen, why did I do it in the first place? It's too late now. Both of you must turn yourself in. After you are shot, I promise to let this fat man visit your graves."
Lin Yuxi still said unwillingly: "Please, just let them go, what do you want me to do..."
I waved my hand to interrupt her and said, "Don't beg him. I have a way to untie the Yin-Yang knot, and I also have a way to make the infant spirit turn against us and kill this unforgivable bastard!"
"Really?" Lin Yuxi couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
"Haha! Boy, bragging is tax-free, right? As the saying goes, the person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it. Whoever made the Yin-Yang knot must be the one to untie it. As long as I can't untie it, you can't untie it even if you move the Taoist ancestor here!" The man's voice was full of contempt and disdain.
I snorted coldly and said, "You are so awesome, how come you don't know that the Yin-Yang knot has not been completed?"
The man was stunned and said, "Impossible. Don't try to bluff me. I have been immersed in this art for decades. How could I fail?"
I smiled disdainfully and said, "You are too conceited. Do you know what other tricks I used when I used the Five Ghosts to exorcise the evil spirits and suppress the wooden barrel? Let me tell you, this trick is called the 'Five Ghost Lock', also known as the 'Five Ghosts Haunting the Body'. Once the little ghost returns to its position in the wooden barrel, it will be immediately blocked and suppressed by the Five Ghosts, cutting off any connection with the outside world. Tell me, how can it form a yin-yang knot with Xiaopang?"
When I suppressed the wooden barrel, I used incense to move the talisman. Although I used the Five Ghosts Curse and the Exorcism Talisman, I quietly added a Five Ghosts Lock technique. Why did I do it quietly? Because this was an ambush. Although the talisman was pasted on the door to seal the way, I knew in my heart that this talisman could not stop the little ghost. It would eventually return to the wooden barrel to recover. The Five Ghosts Lock is like a mechanism. The little ghost does not move before it returns to the wooden barrel. The moment it returns, the Five Ghosts Exorcism will immediately turn into the Five Ghosts Lock, locking it firmly in it, and at the same time cutting off all spiritual connections with the outside world. However, I can use the Five Ghosts Lock to control the little ghost trapped in the wooden barrel.
The man was silent in the room for a while, probably casting a spell to verify whether what I said was true or not. Then I heard a bang, and the door closed by itself without any wind, which must have verified that what I said was true. I quickly closed the door to solve the five ghost locks on the wooden barrel. I was prepared. After I finished speaking, I had secretly formed the "Fifth Level Lotus Seal" with my hands.
This hand seal is most suitable for controlling the Five Ghost Locks. Place the palms facing each other, hold the left ring finger with the middle finger of the right hand, hold the right ring finger with the middle finger of the left hand, and extend the left little finger from between the two ring fingers. Then open and close your hands and chant the mantra, and you'll be done.
It is best to use silent mantras at this time, so recite silently in your heart: "The sky is clear and the earth is spiritual. Send the Yin soldiers and five ghosts to obey the command of the talisman to capture and kill the wicked people in the world and kill all the unrighteous gods in the world. Hurry up and obey the command !"
After the spell was finished, the door was smashed open by the fat man from the inside, and then he stumbled and fell on the threshold again. Behind him, someone was trying hard to pull the wooden barrel around his neck, trying to break the rope, but the rope was too strong and failed to break, and the man was dragged out instead.
Under the light coming through the room, it was clear that the man was in his fifties, with particularly large eyes and a forehead that looked like it had two eggs embedded under it.
After Lin Yuxi saw the man clearly, she exclaimed in surprise: "It's you!"
