The surrounding scene was very strange.
Chaos and chaos, like the appearance of Taiyi, as deep as the dark sky, the sun and the moon have no brightness, the Eight Diagrams have no god, the yin and yang cannot be divided, the four poles cannot be divided, and the whole has no direction, the rule says.
The sky and the earth are vast, covering the world for a moment, with hazy fog and thick clouds. Except for a few illuminated candles, which hold up an open space where things can be seen clearly, nothing else can be seen clearly.
Li Qi touched his equipment.
His original clothes were gone, and now he was wearing a simple white robe.
The long knife is gone, and it seems that no physical objects can be brought in here, so the clothes have been changed, and the long knife cannot be brought in.
But...the willow branches are still there.
It is indeed the gift that Da Zhu left behind, which is awesome.
Holding the willow branch wrapped around his waist, Li Qi became more courageous.
Lifting up his belt, he took two steps forward and walked to the group of "ghosts".
"I don't know what to call this deceased?" Li Qi asked.
At this moment, in this space established by the power of the altar and rituals, people can talk to ghosts and gods here.
To an outsider, Li Qi is just rolling his eyes, maybe doing some magic tricks.
Wu Zhu seemed crazy to outsiders, probably because of this reason. After all, he was "out of his mind" at the moment.
"Just call me Li Weng." The ghost suddenly became sane and answered Li Qi's question clearly.
"My name is Li Qi. I didn't expect that we still have the same surname. Maybe we were the same family five hundred years ago." Li Qi smiled and began to get closer.
But the other party did not accept this trick, and said directly: "You are from Wushenshan. For the sake of Wushenshan, I show up to talk to you. What do you want to say? You want to persuade me to forgive the man who dug my grave." , disturbing my pure Zhuzi?"
"No, I'm here mainly to help you." Li Qiyi said as he cupped his hand.
Then, he went on to say: "The deceased still has no memories and no peace, but he can maintain his consciousness. I am afraid that his body is defective, but he is suffering from the good water of this blessed land."
"I wish people good luck, and I should seek blessings for the ghosts and gods in the world. If what I say is correct, the deceased was angry that his pattern of 'yin and yang colliding, five soils and four preparations' was broken by a few hoes, so he took this effort Casting a curse and trying to take it out.”
"So, I came here this time to understand the troubles of the deceased. I prepared the best Yin wood, and I just had to ask craftsmen to carve it, fill the body of the deceased with the wood body, and then fill the body with the wood energy of the great forest to fill the body of the deceased. How can it be possible to calm the regrets of the deceased and relieve the worries?" Li Qi asked, cupping his hands.
While speaking, he also forced the big forest energy to his fingertips, and abundant vitality appeared.
Carving wood into a body is a common method to make up for the shortcomings of the deceased.
For example, "Tang Shu" records: "On the night of October 18th, a thief broke into Fuguo's house, killed Fuguo, and left with his head and arms. He was buried with a wooden edict and was still given to the Taifu."
Li Fuguo was assassinated and his head was missing, so he carved a piece of wood to replace his head and buried it as a posthumous gift to the Taifu.
Another example is recorded in "Qishu": "In Jiayin, in the fifth month of summer, there was a severe drought, and Jinyang got a death demon, two feet long, with two eyes on the top of its face. When the emperor heard about it, he carved its shape into wood and presented it to him. "
It means that in the year of Jiayin, in the summer of May, there was a severe drought. The corpse of a Hanba was found in Jinyang. It was two feet long and had a pair of eyes on the uppermost side of the face. After the emperor heard about it, he had Bao's body carved out of wood and sent away.
"Biographies" also says: "There was a man named Wang Qiao. His family was robbed, and the bodies of his family members could not be found. They could only carve wood to summon their souls for burial and erect portraits in the temple."
However, for this method to be effective, it ultimately needs to use the Qi in the wood to replace the Wuchang Qi in the body of the deceased. Therefore, there is a lot of demand for wood, and there are many taboos and rules during the carving process. Finally, blessings are needed. Human sacrifice can only be effective, so ordinary people cannot use this method at all.
But isn't that a coincidence?
Li Qi, although he has not yet entered the market, he is definitely a genuine Wushenshan Zhuren.
"...Even if you carve my body out of Yin wood, but they ruined my tomb, does that mean that's it?" the ghost said in a thoughtful tone.
"Then, does the deceased have any other requests?" Li Qi asked in a neither humble nor overbearing tone.
"I want them to bury me with me! Aren't you a blessing from Wushen Mountain? Use the lives of their family to perform a blood sacrifice for me. Once the matter is over, I will have a gift to give you and protect you as a ghost. ." The ghost said.
Li Qi frowned when he heard this, then smiled and said calmly: "I'm afraid you don't know Zhuren very well, this deceased person."
"I heard that the Taizhu Palm Nine Sacrifice Six Weapons. The so-called six weapons are Cang Bi, Huang Cong, Qing Gui, Chi Zhang, White Tiger, and Xuan Huang."
"Nine sacrifices, one is called Ming, the second is called Yan, the third is called Cannon, the fourth is called Temple, the fifth is called Zhen, the sixth is called Blowing, the seventh is called Jue, the eighth is called Burning, and the ninth is called Gong."
Li Qi was talking eloquently, and then changed the topic: "But I have never heard of... there is such a thing as a 'blood sacrifice'."
The scene suddenly turned cold.
The ghost became visibly still.
However, after a few seconds, he replied, although his tone was a little cold, but he said: "I don't blame you for not practicing well. If you think about it carefully, although I don't know why, I know There is a saying in shamanism: 'Blood sacrifice is the source of noble Qi. Sacrificing the lungs, liver and heart is the main source of noble Qi.' Isn't that what you are talking about?"
Li Qi's heart tightened. He didn't expect that the other party was knowledgeable enough to know these things!
The meaning of this passage is that sacrificing blood with blood is to extract the strong vitality of blood, and using lungs, liver, and heart as offerings to gods is to value them as organs that breed vitality.
The visitor is extraordinary, this ghost might really be of the eighth grade.
But he looked calm and still replied: "However, the deceased has passed away, what is the use of being angry with you? The "Blessing" book also says: 'Sacrifice millet, sacrifice Qi and add bright water, and repay the negative.' This should be more suitable for the deceased. , how about using this to make up for it?"
This sentence is a reversal of what the other party said.
The other party offered a blood sacrifice, but Li Qi immediately retorted, saying that using millet to sacrifice, plus five qi and bright water, was a sacrificial method that could repay the yin energy.
All in all, blood sacrifice is impossible, but I can add another layer of weight to you on the condition of carving a body into wood, and use the sacrifice of repaying the yin energy to help you recover.
After all, the dead person is Yin, which is already very sincere.
"...Xiao Zhuren, you are no match for me. Do you really want to become my enemy for these gravediggers?" The ghost no longer pretended to be coy, but said directly.
Li Qi also darkened his face: "Dead man, I once heard a fifth-grade master say that Zhuren is a person who reconciles the contradictions between humans, gods, and ghosts. Your contradictions are really big enough to require... Will you pay with blood?"
While Li Qi was speaking, he gently pointed out his background to intimidate the other party.
After all, Shen Shuibi is also at the fifth level, right?
