The Taoist priest in white jumped up and grabbed my shoulders tightly: "The marriage contract is completed!"
"The underworld contract is completed, how can the underworld marriage contract be completed?".
I was startled for a moment, then laughed and said, "Taoist priest, are you kidding me?"
The Taoist in white shouted impatiently:
"Your right eye is proof that the marriage contract has been completed."
"How can a person have eyes like that? They are full of evil and cold."
"I was wondering just now why the yin energy in your body has not diminished at all but has increased even after the death disaster has passed."
"When I saw those eyes of yours, I immediately understood that the Yin marriage contract has been completed long ago, and tonight is not considered a death disaster at all."
I touched the right eye and frowned:
"What the Taoist priest means is that this eye is like this because of the completion of the Yin marriage contract?"
The Taoist in white nodded seriously:
"It must be so, otherwise I really can't think of any other way to make a normal person's eyes look like ghosts."
"This time when I returned to Longhu Mountain, I specifically inquired about the information about the underworld marriage contract. The underworld contract is the key to it."
"Your eye should be a symbol of the success of the contract. The contract means that you exchange some kind of token with her. What she gives you may be that eye."
"So you must have given her a token, otherwise how could you succeed?"
I retorted decisively:
"Impossible. After I learned about the underworld covenant, I have been careful about everything. I have barely touched any living person except you tonight, let alone given a token."
"Token...wait?".
Something suddenly occurred to me:
"Taoist Priest, you said that the change in this eye was due to the completion of the Underworld Pact, which means that the Underworld Pact is a necessary condition for this eye and comes first."
"The token given by the Underworld Covenant happened before this eye mutated!"
Taoist priest in white:
"That's right, think carefully about whether you give things to women these days. Due to the restrictions of the underworld, when giving tokens, she must appear as a woman, and you must take the initiative to give it."
"Have you seriously thought about whether there have been any suspicious people around you these days?".
"As a female, I take the initiative to give..." I closed my eyes slightly to calm my heart.
Search hard in the memories of these days.
In fact, I haven’t seen many people these days, and the people who have given me things through my hands are even less.
First of all, determine the time. The appearance of the right eye occurred when rushing to Qinglong Temple.
At that time, I was dragged into the water by the drowned ghost and almost drowned. The green flames and the strange appearance of my right eye saved my life.
Therefore, the underworld covenant must have preceded this.
Innkeeper? It was true that I gave money to the hotel owner, but the owner was a man.
The old lady in colorful clothes? Although she was a woman and had handed her a bowl of noodles when she was at her house, it was unlikely that she had, after all, her identity had been determined.
What does a ghost from forty years ago have to do with my ghost marriage contract?
Further forward?
Pedestrians, passers-by, and people I saw flashed through my mind one by one.
Suddenly, a petite and fuzzy figure stood out clearly in his mind.
I also completely dug out that memory.
Clearly and truly, I put a candy in her hand.
Although she looks only about ten years old...
is her! It's the little girl at the bus stop!
Although it is surprising, this is the fact, and I can't find any other memory that can be related to it.
Although she was young, she was still a woman, so I took the initiative to hand over the candy.
She is actually the ghost in the marriage contract! She was also the one who killed Master Guo!
The Taoist Priest in white saw my uncertain expression and asked proactively: "Have you thought of it?"
I hummed, "Maybe."
"So, in the end, I still couldn't escape the dark marriage contract?"
He was dumbfounded for a long time: "The underworld contract has been made, and the underworld marriage contract cannot be reversed."
"The old Taoist really didn't expect that after going through such twists and turns, he still couldn't stop it."
"This is not the fault of the donor. To be honest, the donor is the most mentally stable person I have ever met. If it were anyone else, I would have been driven crazy by this predicament."
"It is natural for people to be afraid of ghosts, but there are very few people who dare to fight against evil spirits, not to mention that the donor is fighting against destiny."
"The old Taoist witnessed your birth. That time you went against destiny for the first time. This is the second time, but you failed... How can you go against destiny so easily?"
I closed my right eye tiredly: "Please ask Taoist Master, what will happen to me? Will I die? Or something worse?"
"If possible, I don't want to involve other people anymore."
The Taoist Priest in white shook his head:
"Unknown, I found a few older people in Fulong Mountain to find out about the underworld contract. As for what will happen after the underworld contract is completed?"
"They don't know very well. The only thing that is certain is that the person who bears the marriage contract will have a miserable life, and it will not be as simple as death."
I took a breath and held it for a while before spitting it out, as if I was venting boredom or some emotions.
Hesitation Shaohui asked:
"By the way, the last time this right eye appeared, there was something weird about me."
He raised his middle and index fingers: "At that time, a kind of green flame burned on these two fingers. Just now, the flame appeared again and saved my life."
"This kind of flame seems to be of some use against evil spirits."
I will talk about dealing with the paper man and burning the chains one by one. I am still very curious about the fire. How cool is it that my hands are on fire.
The Taoist Priest in white frowned for a while after hearing this:
"According to what you said, this flame is not ordinary. It should have been brought to you by the Yin Marriage Contract."
"I seem to have seen the green flames in a book about Fulong Mountain, but I just can't remember it."
"When I return to Fulong Mountain, you will definitely be able to remember what this flame is."
"By the way, this is Lao Dao's mobile phone number. I will call you then."
He took out a cinnabar brush from his pocket and wrote a series of numbers on my arm.
When I saw the phone, I remembered that my phone was still lying on the ground in the backyard.
Just when I wanted to look for it, I thought of something and came back.
My eyes were focused on Master Guo’s body.
"Can the Taoist priest please do something for you?"
.............
The backyard of Qinglong Temple
One of the many monks' tombstones hidden behind the vegetable garden was added today.
The Taoist Priest in white took up a pen to complete the name on the tombstone: "Liaoguo".
I brought incense from the main hall, lit it, and placed incense on the tombstones one by one.
Will anyone come here to burn incense again after this stick of incense is burned?
I don't bother to think about such sad things. My future is still miserable and uncertain, and I don't want to be distressed or depressed.
All I can do is take time out every year to burn incense here.
After the death tribulation, I never saw the monk again in Qinglong Temple.
I wonder if they were hiding because they were afraid of the Taoist priest in white, or if something happened during the death disaster?
The phone case is bright and easy to find, and I found it after rummaging around.
And I found another thing,
A snow-white bone, strong at the bottom and thin at the top, just like the human femur.
I picked up the bone, feeling cold and chilly in my hand. It felt round and round, like a bone that had been wrapped around someone for decades.
"Taoist! Taoist! Come and take a look at this...".
The Taoist Priest in white came running after hearing the sound and looked at the bone in astonishment. After getting it, he observed it for a long time.
"This thing is not simple. Most people can't play with it. This is the bone of an innocent soul."
"It is said that when a fierce ghost with great grievances is wronged and his soul is gone, the grievances all over his body will condense on the longest bone of the body, which also means that the grievances will last forever."
"It doesn't mean that every evil ghost will drop it after death. There are many factors that produce the soul bones, and it is almost impossible to produce them artificially."
"There used to be a guy who raised imps, who specialized in raising those kind of fierce ghosts, and then beat them to pieces in an attempt to get a wronged soul bone. In the end, he didn't get the wronged soul bone, and was instead eaten by the imp."
"Is this thing so rare?", I couldn't help but think of the old lady in flower clothes who wanted to exterminate all the Qinglong Temple after chasing her for forty years. It was right for her to leave this wronged soul bone after her death.
The Taoist priest in white played with it for a while and then threw the wronged soul bone to me:
"If you hold this thing, you won't be afraid of the yin energy in you. Others can't play with it."
"This thing is made of condensed resentment. It is as hard as gold and stone. It can hurt ghosts. You keep it for protection."
"God knows what will happen after the marriage contract."
I smacked my tongue while holding the bones of my victim. What good could come from having so much yin energy in my body?
This soul bone is longer than the normal femur, and it looks like a baseball bat when carried.
But if you want to carry it with you, you must have to pack it. How about going shopping with a human bone? I can’t even think about it….
After burying Master Liguo, it was almost dawn.
When things came to an end, Qinglong Temple became a ghost temple.
There is no need for us to stay longer.
Returning to the main hall again, I cleaned up the spilled ink.
Clean the main hall a little and clean up the blood on the neck of the Buddha.
Perhaps one day this temple will welcome a monk like Master Lingguo.
After cleaning, sunrise has already begun to show signs of
The light curtain passes through the branches little by little and bathes this ancient temple
I exited the main hall and pulled the broken door to close it.
Wisps of light curtains reflected on my back and passed over my head. They were refracted into the main hall.
Sting...My eyes suddenly turned white.
I closed my eyes in pain, and I remembered that light shone into the hall just now, and then a shiny golden thing suddenly appeared.
The Taoist priest in white came over quickly: "What's wrong?".
I covered my eyes and pointed into the hall
"This...this is the relic!" the old Taoist shouted in shock.
What? I opened my eyes with difficulty,
I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or what happened,
I saw that the light shining in from the outside converged on the broken neck of the Buddha.
There is something gleaming on the neck of the Buddha, which continuously refracts the sunlight, rendering the golden walls of the main hall brilliant in a moment.
Sanskrit sounds are heard vaguely in the ears... Even the giant Buddha who has lost his head can't help but make people awe-inspiring.
The old Taoist explained with excited eyes: "This is the ancient Buddha relic. I have only heard about it, but this is the first time I have seen it with my own eyes."
"First it was the Yin Marriage Contract, the wronged soul bones, and now the relics have come out. Following you will gain a lot of knowledge."
"Relics are not produced by ordinary monks who die. This thing depends on the fate of heaven, humanity, and Buddhism. You can't get it, and sometimes it seems like nothing...".
"It was like an appearance of the Living Buddha."
Compared to me, an ignorant newbie, the Taoist in white was much more excited.
As if he was afraid that the relic would disappear, he quickly walked in to get the relic.
It took a lot of effort to climb up to the neck of the Buddha, and immediately reached out to retrieve the relics.
His palm passed through the light curtain easily, but when he looked back, there was nothing in his palm.
The Taoist in white was dumbfounded and hurriedly reached out to fish it out again, but this time it was still empty.
He seemed to understand.
He turned to me and smiled: "I understand, this ancient Buddha relic really pays attention to fate."
"It appeared because of you, and now only you can win it."
I climbed up to the Buddha with a skeptical attitude. I didn't even believe that I could get the relics.
I dare not say that I am disrespectful to Buddha, but I have never believed in it since I was a child.
At first, I didn’t even believe in ghosts and gods, until the yin marriage contract started...
After being whipped by reality, I couldn’t believe anything anymore.
Grasping the relic little by little, his fingers stepped into the light curtain. The warm and pure sunlight was very comfortable.
The relic itself is colorful and only shines under the sunlight.
Fingers gather together, grab and take back.
The Taoist priest in white hurriedly came over: "How is it?"
I smiled at him, revealing the colorful beads on the palm of my hand that were the size of a knuckle on my little finger.
Lao Dao was very happy: "Haha, I really got it."
“It’s really an ancient Buddha relic.”
"If nothing else, you kid is really lucky. You can come across the Yin Marriage Contract, the wronged soul bones, and the relics...".
"The old Taoist really wants to take you back to Fulong Mountain."
I smiled apologetically: "Forget it, I don't want to be a Taoist priest."
"I figured it out. Since the Yin Marriage Contract has protected me for seventeen years, it doesn't matter if I have to bear it in the future."
The old Taoist shook his head and sighed:
"If there was a way to take you back to Fulong Mountain, I would have done it long ago."
"Yin marriage contract is a taboo yin-yang mysticism. I will find a way again."
"You should carry the relic with you as a pendant or something. It is best if it can be exposed to the sun every day, so that it can suppress the yin energy in you."
"It just saves you one thing to worry about, so you don't have to run into ghosts all day long and not be able to go out at night."
With the bones of the wronged soul and the relics of the ancient Buddha, this trip seems not so tragic. At least it is not a waste of money and a waste of effort.
Lao Tao and I left Qinglong Temple
We have not closed the gate of Qinglong Temple.
Master Liguo closed his door and hid forty years ago. At least after his death it was time to open this door.
However, what we don't know is
Not long after we walked, the vermilion door of Qinglong Temple slammed shut.
A bang resounded throughout the forest!
I seem to hear something,
Just when he was about to turn around, he was shouted by the Taoist Priest in white to go home.
............
After the gate of Qinglong Temple is closed
For some reason, the sunshine that had just bathed the entire ancient temple was gradually blocked by clouds.
Many meditation rooms suddenly opened, and the main hall also opened without any wind.
But there was no sign or movement of anyone.
The moment before the sun is completely blocked,
Although there is no one in the courtyard, if you look carefully you can see
Many figures are reflected on the walls of Qinglong Temple.
You can also tell from the figure that Jing Chu... Master Liao Guo... the monks
There is also the shadow of a woman with long hair in the shadow.
The direction the shadows were facing happened to be the way Zhang Asi left.
