It is said that people have three souls and seven souls, the soul is good and the soul is evil.
Although this is the statement of the Taoist Maoshan sorcerer, it is not completely false, it is just a different way of expressing it.
As we all know, humans have a brain and a cerebellum. The brain controls human thinking, while the cerebellum controls balance and behavior.
When a person dies, he or she first loses the ability to think. Without the ability to think, the person just becomes a corpse and cannot still have the ability to act.
However, among Maoshan's techniques, someone has already developed a unique method, which is to keep his cerebellum alive after a person loses his ability to think - that is, after his brain stops functioning. In this way, the person becomes a corpse without thought but still able to move. This is what we usually call a walking corpse.
This technique is called seducing the soul and seducing the soul in the world.
In short, seducing the soul is to remove the soul and keep the soul, making people abandon good and keep evil, so they become evil corpses that can move.
Because the person who is possessed has no ability to think independently, so strictly speaking, he is no longer a human being, but just a zombie-like monster. Therefore, he is easily controlled by others, and he is usually controlled by those who are seductive. This method of controlling the behavior of corpses is the most mysterious technique of exorcising corpses in Xiangxi.
In fact, the art of exorcism, explained by modern science, is that the person who exorcises the corpse still keeps his cerebellum alive after the death of the deceased, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling the behavior of the corpse.
In the beginning, the purpose of this technique was very simple and simple, which was to bring people who died in a foreign land back to their hometown for burial. As a result, many mysterious corpse chasers appeared at that time. In fact, they were just good people who sent strangers back to their homeland, and were not evil people as the outside world mistakenly believed.
Because the number of corpse chasers is very small, one corpse chaser often has to move a lot of corpses. Therefore, the corpse chase technique that uses the principle of seduction and enchantment is formed.
However, in the martial arts world, there is far from just one method of seducing the soul and seducing the soul. There are many methods, all of which can achieve the effect of seducing the soul and seducing the soul.
Among the many methods, the more common ones are medicine, witchcraft, and the soul leaving the body.
Drugs are used directly to maintain a certain vitality in the cerebellum of the corpse. After the drug dissipates, the corpse will naturally return to normal and become a real dead corpse. Although this method can enchant the soul and achieve the purpose of driving away the corpse, the effect is not long-lasting, so the corpse will generally lose its power again within a few days. And this method can only be used once, and usually there will be no worries. It is the authentic method of driving away corpses in Maoshan.
Witch Gu is the use of witchcraft Gu insects to achieve the purpose of seducing the soul. Because Gu insects are generally living creatures and will not lose their abilities quickly, this method can achieve the purpose of controlling the walking corpse for a long time. Generally, the authentic corpse exorcists of the Maoshan Taoist school will be considered to have completed their merits as long as they return the deceased to their hometown, and most of them will not take too long, up to ten days and a half. Therefore, the corpse exterminators in Maoshan all use medicine to drive away the corpses instead of using witchcraft to keep the corpses mobile for a long time. However, the main reason why the method of witchcraft and poison is regarded as a heretic and is shamed by those on the right path is because it can easily cause corpse transformation. If a walking corpse transforms into a corpse, it will eventually turn into a zombie, and the method of driving away the corpse is no longer a simple method of driving away the corpse, it becomes raising the corpse. Therefore, witchcraft and Gu techniques are generally not used to drive away corpses, but are mostly used to raise corpses, zombies and zombies. According to the Taoist Maoshan sorcerers, exorcising the corpse means removing the soul and leaving the soul behind, and the soul is good and the soul is evil. Since people have lost their good intentions and only have evil thoughts, then walking corpses, zombies and zombies are all extremely vicious. This can also explain why zombies and zombies generally suck blood and harm people.
The third method is to leave the body. This method is completely different from the previous two methods, and it is also slightly more sophisticated. The soul's out-of-body experience is originally divided into three types: transferring the soul into the body, reviving the soul through corpse, and hypnosis. Transferring souls into the body is to exchange the souls of two people, and directly achieve the purpose of using one's own thoughts to control other people's bodies. This should be the highest state of seduction. But under normal circumstances, the willpower of thinking between the two people is about the same. Therefore, under normal circumstances, the soul cannot be transferred at all. Only when several large acupoints on the body of the person whose soul is transferred can be controlled, can the soul be transferred at will. The purpose of the body. It is easy to understand that reviving a corpse is to move the soul of another person into a dead corpse and directly control the corpse. Third, hypnosis is only effective on living people. It is to open the lock of a person's heart and put their brain into a state of unconscious dormancy, and then further control other people's bodies. However, no matter which of the three methods is used to release the soul from the body, there is a huge disadvantage, that is, the maximum time limit for controlling a corpse cannot exceed seven days. No matter how powerful you are, everything will return to its original state after seven days. But even so, this method of leaving the body is still the most brilliant method of controlling others.
Nowadays, two major methods of seducing and seducing souls are circulating in the world, namely Ren Xiaoyao's hypnosis technique and Kidaozi's soul-moving technique.
In fact, Tang Mugong was so wise and experienced. When he discovered that the three elders were all suspected of murder, in addition to thinking of blood nourishment, he also thought of two other possibilities, hypnosis and soul transfer. Although Ren Xiaoyao had issues with the Tang clan in the past, however, now that they are both in their sixties, they no longer have the desire to compete for supremacy, and their relationship has become better. Therefore, Tang Mugong generally believes in Ren Xiaoyao. Besides, Ren Xiaoyao's martial arts skills are unparalleled. If he really wanted to compete with their Tang clan, he would probably not use such despicable methods. In this case, only junior sister Zhu Yelan, the blood nourishing technique and the soul moving technique are left. Since the third elder is sure that he has not truly practiced the blood nourishment technique, the possibility of being invaded by evil arts is not high, because the blood nourishment technique is indeed a very difficult technique to practice, and how can it be easily practiced. Compared to the junior sister, Kidozi is naturally more suspicious. The younger junior sister is also from the Tang Sect. Even if she does not care about the relationship between them as brothers and sisters, she should still take into account the relationship between him and her father as a master and apprentice. Therefore, she will definitely not use such despicable methods to damage the reputation of the Tang Sect.
Since Tang Mugong could think of this, he naturally had a backup plan. Now the three elders are all likely to commit crimes again, but why suddenly only the Jade Rakshasa and the Four Ghosts of Western Sichuan are left to help Tang Mugong take care of the three elders, but where have the four heroes of the Tang clan gone? It turned out that after Tang Mugong figured out these joints, he immediately sent the Four Heroes out, just to let them find a senior expert who could crack the soul-transferring method-Xiaoyao Sect Director Xiaoyao. The hypnosis technique of Xiaoyao, the director of Xiaoyao Sect, is actually of the same origin as Kidaozi's soul-transferring technique. But the two happen to be mutually reinforcing and incompatible, and each can decipher the other's methods. Since Tang Mugong believed in Ren Xiaoyao, he naturally wanted to ask him for help, because he himself could not crack Gui Daozi's soul-moving technique at all. Tang Mugong knew that Ren Xiaoyao was also going to participate in the martial arts competition and must be near the capital. He sent four heroes to search with all their strength, and they should be able to find him soon. The reason why the Four Heroes who were more skilled in martial arts were sent to look for him instead of letting Jade Rakshasa and Sichuan West Ghost exchange with them was because the Four Heroes knew Ren Xiaoyao and had some friendship, so it was easy for them to believe him. Although the Jade Rakshasa and the Four Ghosts of Western Sichuan are weak in martial arts, they are not familiar with Pavilion Master Ren, so they can only help themselves to take care of the three elders temporarily, and only hope that the three elders will not be accused of being possessed at the same time.
After Tang Mugong arranged all this, he still secretly asked Wei Yan and Tang Zhong to go out to trace the clues. On the one hand, this is also to find the whereabouts of Ghost Daozi and his gang in Poisonous Gap. On the other hand, it is also to confuse Ghost Daozi and make him think that he does not know that he is doing something secretly. Naturally, he will not hinder the Four Heroes from finding anyone. Free and happy. If they find out that the Four Heroes have secretly gone to find Ren Xiaoyao to deal with them, then they will most likely attack them first before the Four Heroes come back.
One trapped the three old men, the other moved reinforcements, and the third raised suspicions. Tang Mugong had done everything he could, and all that was left was to wait.
Man proposes, God disposes.
Victory or failure can only depend on God's will.
As for the other four young masters and the four maids in the Tang Sect, it would be best for them to hide in the house and not come out. With their little martial arts skills, they can only cause chaos when they come out.
However, things often go unsatisfactory.
Tang Mugong only asked that before the four heroes came back, the three elders would not be accused of sexual misconduct at the same time. If only one person is possessed by the demon and the other two are aware of it, then he, the Jade Rakshasa, and the Four Ghosts of Western Sichuan can still be dealt with. But if three people become possessed at night at the same time, it would be an almost impossible task for them to deal with the three elders at the same time.
Night was approaching, and danger was approaching. Tang Zhong, whose martial arts was second only to Tang Mugong, also set out with Wei Yan. As a result, only Tang Mugong, Yu Luosha and the Four Ghosts of Western Sichuan were left in the backyard of the Wei Mansion. Speaking of which, Wei Taining originally wanted to come with a knife to help, but it was a big day at Furong Tower, so he really couldn't leave. Seeing that everything was fine for the time being, Wei Taining felt relieved, but in his heart he only prayed secretly that these people would not tear down his old home in the Wei Mansion.
The most important thing now is whether Tang Mugong, Yu Luosha and the Four Ghosts of Western Sichuan can control the three elders of the Four Heroes and Ren Xiaoyao before they return. For this reason, Tang Mugong had already taken the lead in tying the three of them tightly to the chairs, and did not even intend to let them sleep. If Ren Xiaoyao hasn't come yet and the three elders have run away, then even if the Four Heroes really find Ren Xiaoyao, it will be of no use. Keeping them awake at all times, it may not be that easy for Kidaozi to use the soul-moving technique.
As long as Kidozi controls the three elders, he can use the three elders to make them fight against each other with Tang Mugong and other Tang Sect masters. In this way, he can make the Tang Sect completely exhausted without any effort. If this plan fails, when the seven-day period is approaching, he can also directly kill the three elders, which will also remove the three top masters of the Tang Sect at once, and the Tang Sect will definitely suffer heavy losses.
After calculation by Duke Mu of the Tang Dynasty, it was exactly seven days from Chang Zhengwen's death to today.
In other words, if Kidozi can't use the three elders to make a difference tonight, then the soul-moving technique he used on the three elders will immediately become ineffective.
Therefore, tonight is also the most dangerous and critical night.
