"Dunkong, you have to listen to daddy. Daddy is doing it for your own good." He Zhi said to Dunkong softly.
I signaled to Dunkong with a slightly stern look that this matter could no longer be discussed and there was no room for change.
Dunkong's mouth tightened even more. He turned around and walked to the corner. He took out the inkstone, pen and a blank stack of talisman paper given to him by Jiang Pan. He squatted on the ground and started to draw talismans.
He Zhi obviously looked relieved, and she and I nodded.
Then she walked over to Dunkong and took out something belonging to the ghost woman. She soaked the finger into a small black pottery bottle.
I've never seen He Pheasant use these things before, and I don't know what they are.
Liu Zhengdao was still standing in front of me, but he looked at He Fei and his eyes stayed on Dunkong for a long time.
After that, his eyes returned to me.
Liu Zhengdao and I nodded and said cautiously: "Taoist Master Liu, hold your troops there for now. When He Zhi is ready, we will discuss the countermeasures before setting off."
After a pause, I told Liu Zhengdao that the gentleman I pulled out from the darkness would definitely think of some twists and turns to catalyze the drought and make it more fierce. We must be more careful when the time comes.
Liu Zhengdao pondered for a moment and said: "The old forest is poisonous. When we go in, we are always passive. What if we don't enter the old forest? Can you force the drought demon out?"
I frowned and lowered my head, and began to think and deduce.
That old forest is also a Feng Shui position. Although I don't know the specific Feng Shui yet, if Jiang Panhe Ying Yin Shu and Mr. Yang Shui are here, they can set up an array.
Nowadays, we don’t have enough manpower, and I don’t have that many counterweights on me. This method is immediately unusable.
At this moment, He Zhi suddenly raised her head and whispered: "Yin Yang, I remembered something."
"What's the matter?" I responded immediately.
"Isn't there a willow forest behind my house? Grandpa asked us to dig out a suppressed drought demon." He Pheasant continued.
I nodded and said yes.
He Zhi paused for a moment and then continued: "I vaguely recall now that many years before that, when my grandpa first taught me the craftsmanship of the ghost woman, he told me that our family had a purpose in front of the forest. Grandpa promised the two gentlemen to guard the things inside the willow forest. If one day, the things inside are about to come out, the forest will be set on fire. Before that, a large number of people must be gathered to prevent the things inside from escaping. .”
My eyelids twitched wildly and I murmured: "Fire?"
I squinted my eyes slightly and thought. Although the drought demon is called drought, in fact, there is no water wherever it passes, but it is filled with water vapor.
Drought is the change it brings to the surrounding environment, so it gets its name?
In essence, Drought Demon should be a type of Shishi Corpse? !
If you use fire, it is a method of restraining life and death.
Was it the gentleman who suppressed the drought demon who told Granny He about this method? !
"Yin Yang, is this method feasible?" He Zhi asked me again in a low voice.
"We don't have the manpower to control this old forest. If it is possible, it must be possible. There is an advantage in setting fire to the forest now. It must come out."
"In addition, if that gentleman got into the old forest, now he has no place to hide." I spoke word by word.
Surprise suddenly appeared on He Fei's face.
I looked more cautious, looked at Liu Zhengdao again, and asked him what he thought?
Liu Zhengdao nodded and said: "It can remove the poison and force both the gentleman and Han Bao out. This is a two-pronged strategy."
I nodded, discussed with Liu Zhengdao for a few more words, and confirmed that I would attack with fire first.
I discussed with him again how to deal with the drought demon when it came out, and how to rescue those who were disturbed in the forest.
Liu Zhengdao roughly told me that most of the people who were attacked by drought demons had rough skin and thick flesh, and were extremely ferocious in combat. The living corpses looked like drought demons. If they were given enough time and years, they might become new drought demons. .
It now seems that those who have been haunted by the impact have no possibility of reversing and waking up. After leaving the haunting, they will either die or become living corpses.
When I heard this, I couldn't help but change my face slightly.
I said unnaturally, then wouldn’t there be no one alive in Shi Nian Town?
Liu Zhengdao shook his head and said: "Those who were supposed to leave were let go by me and the third elder at that time. Those who were not able to leave should be the people who dug up the Hanbao. Also, they may have been plotted against."
His words immediately reminded me of those scarecrows.
I exhaled, nodded and said, "That's about it."
"Well, there is no cure for these people, so we can't be kind-hearted. In fact, they are the hands of Hanba. Without them, no matter how fierce Hanba is, it will just be a corpse lying there. The main trouble is them. "
Liu Zhengdao paused and then said: "Two months ago, there was actually a chance to save them. It was because of that time that the Third Elder felt compassion. We did not deal with them, but directly came into contact with Hanba's corpse. That’s why we ended up with this result.”
As he spoke, Liu Zhengdao's eyes were filled with confusion.
I sighed softly and asked Liu Zhengdao to mourn. There is no resurrection after death.
Liu Zhengdao closed his eyes and looked more cautious.
When he looked at me again, he took a deep breath and said: "I can deal with half of the living corpses and haunted people. There are quite a lot of them. The other half is up to you and your family to find a way."
"As for the corpse of Han Ba, I already have a way to suppress it. The Liu family's talisman is definitely not weak. I will let Dunkong take a good look at it."
My body stiffened.
It’s not that Liu Zhengdao asked us to deal with half the number of ghosts and living corpses.
But he said he wanted Dunkong to have a good meeting...
The Liu family has always been stubborn, and I am not sure at this time whether Liu Zhengdao was inspired to be competitive, or whether he wanted to use a powerful talisman to make Dunkong change his mind?
The conversation between Liu Zhengdao and I stopped here.
There are still variables involved in this matter, and there is no way to discuss a perfect countermeasure now.
That gentleman is still a variable, and we still need to be vigilant.
During this period, a foul smell came from the corner of the wall.
I looked over and saw that He Pheasant was using a tiny needle to pick Hanba's finger out of the pottery vase. After placing it on the ground, she began to draw something on it with the needle again.
Dunkong lowered his head and kept drawing symbols.
He wrote quickly, and there was already a small stack of talismans and seals beside him.
However, what slightly changed my face was that I could see that Dunkong's face was paler than before.
He pursed his lips, and there was still some blood on the corners of his lips.
At this time, he raised his hand and quickly wiped away the blood.
My expression changed again, and I scolded in a low voice: "Dun Kong! What are you doing?!"
