I immediately grabbed Cui Hao and rushed over.
Today I have to find out, what is this thing that is secretly here to scare people?
The flower bed was pushed away by us, but there was still nothing inside. I looked at the ground, and there were no traces of being trampled on the grass blades on the grass.
"It's really weird. What the hell is this black shadow? Why does it appear five times and three times, and it's still mysterious."
Cui Hao obviously couldn't stand it anymore.
He pushed my arm and turned around, continuing to chase the golden talisman.
"No matter what kind of ghost he is, this thing doesn't dare to come out to see people, so the two of us will just treat it as invisible."
I followed the sound wave and finally came to a house in the deepest part of the Han family, and the roaring sound came from the fog.
"The stuff is in the house."
Cui Hao licked his lips with excitement on his face.
"Come on, let's go in and take a look."
I grabbed his arm and pulled Cui Haoqiang back.
"Wait a minute, there's something wrong here."
I pointed to the eaves above my head, where a series of seven carpenter's tools, such as a hammer, a saw, and an awl, were hanging upside down.
"It will be bad if you go."
Seeing those tools, Cui Hao couldn't help but cursed.
"The Han family is really bad at heart. For such a big family, it's not surprising that they have some Qimen Dunjia to protect them, but their family is good at engaging in these evil ways."
I sighed and stared at the seven tools without saying anything.
In fact, these seven pillars also have their own explanations.
It is said that this Luban Shu was passed down to later generations, and various carpenters developed many methods, and the book was continuously expanded and filled.
In the early days, Lu Ban Shu was not integrated, so the techniques in it were mixed, and all kinds of techniques, even some evil and evil techniques, were compiled and recorded in it.
These books spread, and then became known to more carpenters, such as the art of hating victory, and some evil arts of beams and huge roofs and pillars, which are all among them.
There were indeed some crazy craftsmen back then. After helping their masters build a house, they would immediately ask for several times or even ten times the remuneration.
This was far beyond the price they had negotiated at the beginning. Not all of the owners were wealthy families, and some could not afford the money at all.
Therefore, these carpenters would not deal with the tricks they secretly performed in the house, and some strange magic even directly killed the owner of the house.
As far as I know, one of them was a wealthy family in Jiangnan who hired a large number of craftsmen to build a garden house for them.
It was originally agreed upon that a hundred taels would be given as wages, but in the end these people insisted on increasing the amount of remuneration, and they could only give up to five hundred taels.
Originally, the rich man wanted to pay, but it happened that his new wife was a frugal person, and this woman also hated these craftsmen who were like thugs.
In addition, during the construction period, when they came to check and review the situation, these craftsmen also touched the hostess, which made her unable to hold back her breath.
Not to mention five hundred taels, in fact, the hostess was not willing to give the original hundred taels, but they were kind-hearted people after all, and they were still willing to give the price, but they would only give two hundred taels, not a cent more.
This move immediately angered the craftsmen, who immediately followed the method in Lu Ban's book and placed a white tiger statue on the eaves of the bedroom.
At the same time, two hay men were placed in a hidden corner of the kitchen, with the birth dates and names of two people stuffed in their stomachs.
As a result, after the host moved in, the two of them had nightmares day and night, and even saw phantoms in a trance during the day.
The white tiger has a tough destiny and is one of the four auspicious animals. If an altar or shrine is set up for worship, then the fate of the family will be prosperous and tyrannical.
However, the white tiger was forced to be placed on the beam, so the white tiger's life was overwhelmed. The yang energy of the couple was suppressed a lot, and their bodies even gradually weakened.
Later, a fire broke out inexplicably in the house. The fire started in the kitchen. The maids in the house and even the watchdog who was kept in the house escaped.
However, this couple was buried in the sea of fire, and they were burned so hard that they could not even pull out their bones.
These things should have been kept in the bellies of the craftsmen as secrets, but it was a pity that one of them was too drunk and told the matter like this.
Many things like this happened one after another, and gradually many evil people were obsessed with the magic in Lu Ban's book.
At that time, there was an upright Taoist who discovered that everyone in the world was not following the right path and began to use evil magic to cause trouble in the world. Originally, the officials at the top were going to burn the book directly.
However, after repeated revisions, corrections, and summarization by this upright Taoist, the essence of it was retained.
And those evil arts were all eliminated and completely submerged in history.
Of course, those messy books full of sorcery had been burned long ago. Most of the records in the existing Luban books are some mechanism formations.
There are even some records on how to arrange the Feng Shui layout and furniture to make your home prosperous.
As for the evil spells that were harmful to people in the past, they have all disappeared.
However, there are also legends that the complete book of Luban has been handed down, and through the hands of several people, some of the magic techniques contained in it have also been spread out unintentionally.
As for me, by chance, when I was dealing with something, I happened to have an encounter with the leader of the Chen family, the owner of Lu Ban Shu.
At that time, he once told me a strange story, in which he mentioned these seven pillars.
In fact, all the carpentry tools that were used to build this house were collected and hung on the eaves with ink lines.
Ninety-nine grains of white rice must be put on each ink pipe thread, and the birth date and name of the carpenter of this tool must be carved on the rice.
Because this house was originally made by these craftsmen, when their tools were hung on the ceiling beams, they became the guardians of the house in disguise.
And their bodies will rapidly weaken after a hundred years, and they will die in less than half a year.
After their death, their souls will not be taken away by evil spirits, but will stay around the house to protect it.
Whenever outsiders or visitors invade, their seven souls will appear to prevent the gangsters from breaking in.
To be precise, the owner of the house used the craftsman's life to suppress and protect the safety of this house. They used the craftsman's life as their own watchdog.
This is a rather sinister spell.
Logically speaking, it should have been lost a long time ago. I don’t know why it can be passed down to this day, and it is even used by the Han family on the outside of this house.
I shook the gold chain in my hand unconsciously.
Amidst the tinkling sound, resonance came from the room again.
Otherwise, Cui Hao exclaimed.
"Young prince, behind us."
I immediately turned around and saw a white mist emerging out of thin air on the flat ground in the middle, and at this time a person's shadow was looming in it.
In addition, there were several dark shadows on our left and right sides, as well as under the eaves in front of us.
These shadowy bodies are hidden in the mist, looming and unclear.
But through the thick fog, I saw the carpenter's tools tightly held in their hands.
I counted the number of black shadows, and there were exactly seven, no more, no less.
I suddenly knew what was going on.
"Cui Hao, I know what was following us just now. It was these black shadows. They must have felt the resonance of the golden talisman, so they came to check the situation."
I pointed to the shadow on the far right.
"You see, the bodies of these shadows can be transformed into void at any time. The right half of his body is completely transparent. No wonder we just couldn't find where these shadows went."
In fact, I felt relieved in my heart.
With these things to guard the gold-touching talisman, I can safely let the gold-touching talisman stay in this place. It will definitely be difficult for other people to take it away.
But the only uncertainty now is whether these black shadows have any intention of attacking us, and whether the two of us can successfully escape from them.
As we confront these shadows.
Suddenly there was a scream not far in front of us.
The sound was so shrill that it immediately attracted the attention of these black figures.
I clearly saw that one of the black figures seemed to turn his head slightly and looked in the direction of the source of the sound.
"Good opportunity, ready to go."
This place is sealed off like a copper wall. I'm not worried that someone else will take away the golden talisman, so my current plan is to escape first.
What happens next will be discussed tomorrow.
These black figures saw us moving, but they did not chase us. Instead, they continued to stand quietly, staring at our backs.
With a light on my back, I urged Cui Hao faster.
"Hurry up, we have to run out as soon as possible before they become aggressive."
But just as we passed by a dark shadow, a loud shout suddenly came from the distance.
The next second, a figure stumbled over, holding a mahogany sword and smashing it directly towards one of the black figures.
There was a loud bang.
The peach wood sword was cut into two pieces, splitting instantly and falling to the ground.
Zhao Lei, holding half of the peach wood sword, stared at me dumbfounded, looked at the peach wood sword in his hand in disbelief, and suddenly raised his head to question me.
"What are you doing? We have to kill these damn things."
I waved my hand at him, quickly grabbed his shoulders and pulled him to my side.
"Don't act rashly. The seven of these things united are not something that we can handle. Let's find a way to exit first, and then we can consider the long-term future."
Zhao Lei glanced at me in surprise, and looked under the eaves in the direction of my finger, only to find that there were four shadows standing there.
