For a moment, there was a sharp pain in my right shoulder, which had been unconscious at first!
The place scratched by the old ghost felt as if nails had been thrown into it.
"Ah, it hurts!"
I couldn't hold it back anymore and screamed.
But when Aunt Qin heard my scream, she seemed to be relieved: "I still know the pain, so that's not a big problem. Wu Wa'er, bear with it."
As she spoke, she already held a writing brush in her hand, which was stained with ink mixed with mugwort, chicken blood, and cinnabar. He quickly wrote words and drew symbols on my body.
In a moment, my upper body was covered with densely packed characters.
At this time, I felt that the pain in my right shoulder had reduced a lot.
Aunt Qin threw away her brush and started walking around me between the burning fire pots.
She was mumbling words, and her steps were full of a special rhythm. Two light and one heavy, the ups and downs made me feel calm.
Later I learned that this method is called Nuobu.
Turning around subconsciously, he saw that the wound on his right shoulder was bleeding out with black blood, and some smoke-like black gas was emanating from the wound...
"Oh my god! This is bleeding too much, isn't it? It keeps bleeding like this, it's okay."
I was scared to look at it.
But I believe that Aunt Qin will not harm me, not to mention that the dark blood that flowed out must have been infected by evil spirits and ghost poison.
Fortunately, soon, bright red blood flowed from the shoulder wound.
Aunt Qin stopped and asked my parents to throw a piece of gauze and a bandage from outside the brazier. After she took it, she helped me stop the bleeding and bandage it.
"Okay, Wu Wa'er, all the evil spirits and ghost poisons in your body have been eliminated. This second calamity of yours is finally over. There is no need to wash these runes on your body, they will disappear on their own in a few days."
She said as she helped me stand up.
After I walked out of the circle of fire pits, I asked my parents to follow me.
"Xiangu, my son..."
"I'm fine, I'm just a little weak. Just rest at home for a few days and eat some nutritious food."
"Thank you, fairy aunt. Thank you, fairy aunt."
My mother wiped her tears with the back of her hand and wished she could kneel down to her.
Aunt Qin just nodded without saying anything more, then turned and left.
Watching her leaving back, I had already made a decision in my heart!
For the next three days, my parents did nothing but stayed at home with me. Make delicious food for me every day, big fish and meat, good rice and good vegetables, and give me a meal.
Especially the pig's feet, one trotter a day, and I was not allowed to leave the table until I finished eating.
I feel like I’m going to live in poverty!
After I finally felt that my body was almost recovered and my parents went to do their own things, the first thing I did when I went out was to find Aunt Qin.
Jogging all the way to the broken house at the end of the village.
It happened to be morning, and Aunt Qin happened to be sitting on the big rock in front of the house to bask in the sun.
"Hehe, hehe, Wu Wa'er is here. Let's bask in the sun with me. Let's catch lice together."
She was back to her crazy self.
But this time, I didn't say much.
She immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed three times, and then said loudly: "Aunt Qin, I want to become a disciple. I want to be your disciple! Learn magical methods."
That's right!
That's my decision.
Growing up, my parents always said that I have a weak horoscope and a strange horoscope, and I tend to get into dirty things and attract evil spirits. Let me be safe.
But what's the use of always avoiding it?
When you encounter difficulties, naturally you should find a way to solve them!
Since she was a child, Aunt Qin has shown various miraculous methods, including sending water evil spirits, curing yellow-skinned demons, and killing old ghosts... There is a ready-made master right in front of her, and it is of course the best choice to worship her as her teacher.
After listening to my words, Aunt Qin suddenly fell silent.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little depressing.
I got up from the ground, patted the dust on my body, and said timidly: "Aunt Qin, are you angry? I'm sorry. I, I really want to learn something from you."
I boldly looked up at her.
After a while, she let out a long sigh.
"Wu Wa'er, do you know that if you accept me as your disciple, how much karma will you have to bear? Do you know that with your Yuzi horoscope and Shensha Xuanqi destiny, I will accept you as my disciple, and you will have to bear the consequences. How big a cause and effect?”
I shook my head, but my eyes were firm.
"Aunt Qin, I don't quite understand what you are saying. I also know that my horoscope and destiny are more troublesome. But what I want to say is, if you are willing to accept me as your disciple, I will not be afraid of any difficulties no matter how big it is! Whatever happens, I will stand by your side and try my best to help you and protect you."
"Of course, if you don't want to, Aunt Qin, I understand. You have already saved my life, so I shouldn't expect too much."
After saying that, he just looked at her, waiting for the final answer.
I knew she was looking at me too - those bright eyes hidden behind the messy, dirty long hair were also looking at me.
In fact, I was very nervous at the time.
His hands were clenched into fists, and his palms were sweating.
I really want to be her apprentice, but I'm really afraid of her rejection!
Once a person enters an extremely nervous and anxious mood, there will be an error in the perception of time. So it feels like centuries have passed...
Finally, Aunt Qin let out a long sigh again.
"Oh, Wu Wa'er. I don't know, but I originally chose your Wu Village to live in seclusion. This is a blessing or a curse for you."
There was another moment of silence.
She seemed to have figured it out, and there was a bit of smile and carefreeness in her tone.
"Forget it, I'm not one of those magic sticks who learn the art of divination and fortune-telling. I talk about the fate of people every day. My lineage is originally about academics and belief in one's own body. If my fate is not good, Then let’s fight with God! Wu Wa’er, if you dare to take the initiative to worship me as your teacher, it means you don’t believe in this fate either.”
Um!
I nodded vigorously.
I'm not young anymore, and my parents haven't hidden anything from me since I was a child. Of course, I know my situation very well. It is also very clear that there are three tribulations of life and death before the age of fifteen.
The first time, the wandering Taoist priest helped me block it.
The second time, Aunt Qin helped me block it.
What about the third time?
You can't always pin your hope of survival on others!
My dad has taught me since I was a child that I must be independent and self-reliant.
So actually, I have been thinking about it since I was rescued by Aunt Qin a few days ago. If I had the same ability as Aunt Qin - or even only half of it, wouldn't I be so embarrassed and have to be rescued by others?
I don't believe in fate!
I want to get out of trouble.
So I took the initiative to become a disciple, hoping to gain Aunt Qin's approval.
She looked at me with bright eyes and said seriously.
"Since you have such an idea, then I agree to accept you as my disciple! From now on, when you are free, come here and learn from me. Of course, normal academic performance cannot fall behind. In fact, metaphysics is not The opposite of science requires a deep understanding of science.”
When I heard it, I was overjoyed.
He fell to the ground and bowed to the ground again: "Qin...oh no, the master is here, please accept my disciple's bow!"
