After Jiamatan finished speaking, he squatted down and took out the herbal medicine, put it in his mouth and chewed it for a while, then spit it into his hand, and then took out a rattle. This bell is very similar to the one Qin Bukong passed to me. Maybe The techniques of ethnic minority masters are more or less similar. I saw Jiama Dan ringing a bell and chanting a curse over the chewed herbs in his hand. Then he lifted off the gauze I was holding on Da Mao's chest, and then applied all the herbs on it.
Da Mao had fainted, but when the herbal medicine was applied, he suddenly woke up from the pain and screamed. I comforted him and said, it's okay, Jiama Dan is helping you apply the medicine. Although Da Mao's cry sounds weak, it is not breathless. This proves that my previous treatment and Jiamadan's herbal medicine are indeed effective. Jiama Dan bandaged Da Mao again and said that it would be no big deal. He would just go back and find a Chinese medicine shop to open some rooms for muscle growth and conditioning. Jiama Tan is a master of medicine. When he said this, I felt more relieved. After all, he had previously I had several dislocated joints on my body, and it was his herbal medicine that made me recover so quickly.
Jiamatan stood up, took out the female ghost's bamboo sign from his pocket and handed it to me and said, "Come on, little brother, let's say goodbye. I took the bamboo sign. I didn't understand what he meant. Watch me take it." After that, he smiled and extended his right hand to me, which meant to shake my hand. This handshake was actually a farewell. But I still didn't understand many things, so I grabbed Jiama Tan's hand. When I held his hand, a very strange feeling came to my heart. No, it should be said that it was like a movie scene. In my head.
Those pictures are very fragmented, each lasting only a few seconds, but there are a lot of them. It stands to reason that I can't remember such a large amount of information in a short time, but the strange thing is that I remember every picture clearly. Clearly, these scattered scenes pieced together what happened during the period when Jiamatan was missing. It turned out that he had been trying to lurk outside Di Baotian's window until the commotion started on my side. Di Baotian originally We went back to the house, but came out again with a gun. At this time, Jiamatan sneaked into Di Baotian's house. The reason why he didn't come to rescue us from the beginning was because he knew that we were capable of dealing with this group of people. Human beings, on the contrary, the female ghost is difficult to deal with at the moment. Because the female ghost is Jiama Dan and has been sold to Di Baotian, it stands to reason that its owner is Di Baotian. And since we recognize our master, we will inevitably protect our master accordingly, so if we really defeat Di Baotian's group of people in hand-to-hand combat, the next person we have to face is this female ghost, and at that time We are all very weak, so the odds are stacked against us.
It is precisely because of this that Jiama Dan has not come to our rescue for a long time. Only if he can save himself can he help us contain the danger we are about to face next. The next scene was when Di Baotian was defeated by me, and then the female ghost came out, but by that time Jiama Dan had already found the female ghost's bamboo sign, so he and the female ghost fought in Di Baotian's house. stand up. Although Jiama Dan is considered an expert, the reason why he subdued the female ghost before was because the female ghost turned into two clones, one of which was restrained by me and Da Mao respectively. The strength was also divided into two, which gave him such a There was a chance to successfully conquer the other party, but at that time, it was a face-to-face collision, and the power of the female ghost was combined into one, so the outcome was hard to say.
After a fight, Jiama Dan caught the opponent with a soul-tripping rope, but he also suffered some injuries. He was not able to escape the same fate as us, and the female ghost also reached in. own chest. But the difference between Jiamatan and us is that although we can see this female ghost, if we don't hit it with things such as Ziwei Tao, Lei Jue, etc., there is actually no way to directly touch her, even if we can clearly see her. The female ghost is in front of me. When I reach out and hit her, it's like hitting a ball of air. But Jiamatan has a Buddhist five-eye tattoo on his hand, and he can directly contact the ghost with his hands, thus fighting against the female ghost.
After Jiama Tan caught the female ghost, the female ghost still refused to be at peace, so Jiama Tan took advantage of the short time to become a substitute for himself, and the substitute was the woman outside. Since this female ghost must die today, let's give this woman's life to her. It will be a good thing to get rid of the harm, and maybe it will be regarded as a meritorious deed of the female ghost. So there was a later scene, where the female ghost killed the woman.
All this information was conveyed to me through the five eyes of Buddhism in Jiamatan's palm in just one or two seconds of shaking hands, and I also know that if he had not released the spell, I would not be like this. It feels like a normal handshake. It is precisely because Jiamatan knew that I had doubts in my heart, but he was too lazy to explain it in words, so he told me in this way, because maybe I might not believe it when he said it, but if I saw it with my own eyes, that would be another matter. Don't worry about it.
When I let go of his hand, I felt like I was waking up from an extremely real dream. This feeling is very strange, because I dream almost every night. If I don’t deliberately think about last night’s events when I wake up, As for dreams, I actually can’t remember what I dreamed about yesterday, but I clearly know that I had a dream.
But I was still a little confused, so I asked Jiama Dan, when you chose a substitute, why did you choose this woman instead of someone else? Jiamatan smiled and said, there is no reason, this is probably the arrangement of fate. When he was looking for her, the woman happened to be closest to him and she was not one of them, so he chose her. I felt a little emotional in my heart, maybe if Di Baotian fell closer to Jiama Dan, maybe Di Baotian would be dead now. I am not a person who believes in fate, but I believe in retribution in this world. People who do evil will definitely taste the bitter consequences. The cause of women and Di Baotian started because of this woman in the green cheongsam, and it ended because of her. , maybe this is a cause and effect, this ending is unavoidable for both this woman and Di Baotian, but this woman is more unlucky and was selected by Jiama Dan.
Then I asked Jiamatan, when we were hiding in the weeds, you mentioned that... River Temple? What it is? Jiamatan said that before entering the Sanchuan Ghost Market, he had heard some rumors about Li Bing's Feng Shui, but no one knew who spread the word. It was mentioned that such a sentence was to prevent Li Bing from taking action thousands of years later. The stone rhinoceros that originally sank at the bottom of the river was excavated. A river temple was built at each location where the stone rhinoceros sank. This river temple needs to exist in this place for generations, but in order to distinguish it from others, it cannot The river temple is the same, so although the temple enshrines the god Erlang, he is not followed by a roaring dog, but by a rhinoceros for identification.
Jiamatan said that before he came here, he had gone to look for the river temple. Many people said that there was indeed a river temple nearby, but it had been destroyed during the war in the early years, and now only one foundation remained. , and many houses were destroyed in this generation, especially along both sides of the river, so no one can find out where the river temple is.
Jiamatan told me that when you asked me earlier, I answered casually. This is all I know. If you want to find or protect this water-suppressing beast in the future, you only need to find out the address of the River Temple. Deep in the center of the river in front of the River Temple, it should be where Li Bing sank. Stone rhinoceros place.
In fact, I never went looking for it, and I never told anyone about it, at least before the area was renovated. Because many years later, another stone rhinoceros that Li Bing had sunk and sent to Chengdu was dug out during construction, causing a severe flood in the Land of Abundance. So it's better to keep this secret in my heart.
I originally wanted to ask Jiama Tan if we could write letters in the future, but Jiama Tan refused. He said that our meeting was just an accident. If Damao and I hadn't accidentally broken into his shabby house, maybe we would have met each other. Like all the other vendors in the Sanchuan Ghost Market, he will not leave any impression on me. Since it is fate, let's go with it. If the fate is not broken, we will meet again in the future. After Jiama Dan said all this, the sky began to get a little brighter. We fired so many shots and made such a big noise last night. I wonder if there will be any bad guys coming to watch after dawn. Before leaving, Jiama Dan pointed to Di Baotian, who was still unconscious on the ground, and said, "Is this person your friend?"
I nodded and said, it was. Jiamatan said, if you want him to change his mind and be a good person from now on, you might as well give him a chance. If a leader like him is caught, you know the consequences, and they will definitely not be curable. When Jiama Dan said this, I felt melancholy. In fact, I had thought about this over and over again. I knew how the public agencies treated suspects, so I nodded and told Jiama Dan that I would think about it again.
Jiama Dan waved his hand towards Damao and me, and then said, although the days ahead are long, we may never see each other again, so let’s just say goodbye. Then without looking back, he stepped over the woman's body lying on the ground, her face turning pale, and walked away.
That was the last time I saw Jiama Dan to this day. I had tried everywhere to inquire about his whereabouts, but to no avail, so I had no choice but to give up.
