"When we came to this open space, I put down my schoolbag and reminded Master to place the incense table. Master shook his hand and said no, pulled out the sword with a 'swish' sound, pointed it at the sky and shouted: 'Li Gui, if you are a bloody man, you will Come out and talk to me, don't be a coward.' A bolt of lightning suddenly struck in front of us, and there was lightning and thunder, and strong winds. I knew that the sword could cause lightning and thunder, so I wasn't too scared. I expected that the evil spirit would be there. They were stunned by our formation. Unexpectedly, there were gloomy sneers from all around: 'You stinking Taoist priest, are you trying to scare me with this rotten sword? I had expected you to come. How are you going to stay?' My master was startled for a moment and shouted: "You dare to be so arrogant when you see me. You have really done enough." The voice laughed loudly and said: "Smelly Taoist, I should be asking you this question. Are you confident?" Can you beat me?" The master said angrily: "How do you know if you haven't beaten me? Even if you can't beat me, will we people in the magic world pity our lives and forget our duty to conquer demons?" The voice chuckled. Said: 'Tianyun? Do you dare to say that your actions this time are also in line with God's will? Paying back debts and killing people to pay for one's life is the law of heaven. My existence in this world is the true will of God. You have so many abilities to do it Why are our brothers who suppress us so stingy and unwilling to put in any effort to suppress those officers and soldiers who kill people indiscriminately?" The master looked troubled, and after a while he said: "Don't make excuses. We in the magic world don't care about human affairs." The voice said coldly: 'Hey, I understand, in your magic world, regardless of right or wrong, ghosts are wrong anyway, and people should be suppressed as long as they die.' My master was speechless for a long time, then looked up to the sky and sighed: 'You don't have to be so sarcastic. You have your difficulties, and I have mine. Even if I go against the will of heaven, I will fight with you. Stop talking nonsense and accept the move!' A burst of lightning struck, and the master's figure had disappeared. Then There was a rumbling sound in the sky, a lot of lightning flashing randomly, black clouds quickly filled the entire sky, a cold wind blew around, and there was flying sand and rocks. I was so fascinated that I couldn't open my eyes, so I had to find a bush to hide. Amidst the whistling wind, I vaguely heard the clash of swords. Then I heard Master yelling, and the wind stopped. I waited for a while, but there was still no sound outside. I became scared, so I shouted I shouted: 'Master!' I heard a very weak voice outside calling me: 'Child, come out quickly. Master has something to tell you.' I was cold and hungry, and I had been impatient for a long time. When I heard these words He was overjoyed and climbed out quickly, but was immediately stunned.
"Master fell to the ground covered in blood, barely holding up half of his body with his sword. He tried his best to look at me with his eyes wide open, and waved: 'Child, come here.' I was so horrified that I took two steps back: 'No. , Master, you..." Master coughed twice and said, "Don't be afraid, the evil ghost was also injured and couldn't attack us for a while. Come here quickly." I felt sad, rushed forward, hugged Master and cried loudly . Even though I was young at the time, I knew Master's name. The most powerful person in the Taoist world would actually be injured all over his body. It was really unusual for that fierce ghost. When Master saw me coming, he was not comforted, but his face showed relief. With a look of disbelief, he raised his head and shouted: "Li Gui, listen, I'm telling you. You have a lot of grievances, and it is certainly against God's will for me to suppress you, but you have to understand that God will not punish you for killing people now, but ten times After a few years or decades, your grievances and murderous rage will offset each other sooner or later. By then, you will be addicted to killing and cannot stop, and as long as you kill one more person, you will be burned by heavenly fire and experience all kinds of pain. And your soul is gone. If you want to prevent this from happening, we might as well make a deal." The ghost hesitated and said, "What deal?" The master said, "I'll tell the people here to build a small temple for each of you, so that you can enjoy it all the time." Offering incense and offering sacrifices, not only will you be free, but it will also greatly increase the time you can stay in this world. In time, you will be able to move the heavens and the earth. If you can continue to practice hard, you may be able to be ranked among the immortals." How can I believe what you say? "If you are a master in the Taoist world, how can I still lie to you?" Li Gui was obviously persuaded. The temptation to become a fairy was great after all. So my master asked the people who survived in the city to build these small houses for them. Temple, and used a large amount of copper deer tongues to form a barrier to prevent them from regretting and escaping. When the matter was finally settled, it was already half a month later. Master vomited blood more and more often at night. I was so scared that I just cried. . I helped the master out of the city and prepared to go back to the mountain. The master was quite energetic at first, but as soon as he passed the mountain, he said: "I can't hold it anymore." Then he fell down. I was at a loss and cried. He said: "Master, please get up. The apprentice will listen to you obediently." The master touched my face and said warmly: "Okay, I know you are very obedient. Then listen now, master has something to tell you. I just said to you What the evil ghost said are all lies. I have secretly arranged those temples into a southern formation, which can weaken the evil ghost's magic power year by year. I watch the sky at night and know that in eighty years, the evil ghost will have a great disaster. Most of its The mana will be deprived, and then we can deal with him. Master can't wait for this day, but you must remember to help Master fulfill this wish. I want you to solve this big case with your own hands.' I cried Master said: "Master, you are talking a lot. I don't understand it. Please stop talking." Master said: "Remember it first, and you will understand it gradually later. If you don't talk, Master... I will never have the chance to talk to you again." You speak. My child, you have to be good and learn to take care of yourself in the future.'" When the old man said this, his eyes turned red, his throat became choked up, and he could no longer speak.
He Jianfei couldn't help but burst into tears when he thought of his deceased loving teacher and father. After stopping for a long time, the old Taoist said sadly: "I cried on my master for a day and a night, and my voice became hoarse from crying. Then your master's master arrived. He shook his head and sighed for a long time, and finally said to me: 'My child , Forget it, this is all fate. If it weren't for your master, countless people in the world would have died." He was so long-winded that I lost count. Forget it, I don't want to go on. Master didn't like it when he was alive. I cry." The old Taoist shook his head and said no more.
At this point, He Jianfei roughly understood what was going on. The experienced Taoist master could not go against the will of God and suppress the evil ghost who was supposed to kill people for revenge, so he did not hesitate to destroy his reputation as a Taoist leader and tricked him into entering the South Dou Formation formed by these small temples, and made a sophisticated plan to suppress him eighty years later.
He Jianfei was silent for a while and then said: "Senior master... deceived it like this. Although it is a ghost, it... seems to be..." The old Taoist smiled heartily: "It seems despicable, right? If the master didn't do this, the person who died would have died. There will be more. He was really in a dilemma at that time and could only sacrifice himself." He Jianfei said hurriedly: "No, I mean that the old man did this because he was not afraid that the evil ghost would be furious when he discovered the truth in the future, and even the gods would not be able to do anything about it." The old Taoist looked calm and said: "My master has such profound skills. Predicting good and bad luck in the future is commonplace. He has naturally taken into account these things." He Jianfei shook his head, feeling that this was still very unfair to the fierce ghost.
