Holy Bone

Chapter 1639: Saving Others and Yourself on the Road to the Underworld

Looking at the black-sailed boat that was being entangled by the little ghost and was being taken to the shore by the corpse boat in an attempt to strand it in the shallow water, Wutou Jinan knew that the other party was the favorable wind boat he was looking for.

The sound of chanting of the "Duren Sutra" was heard on the river bank, and a figure flew onto the bow of the black-sailed boat. The bow sank and bounced up suddenly, causing huge ripples on the surface of the Yinshui River, one circle after another, spreading to the depths of the gray fog.

The figure was none other than the headless Taoist priest Jin'an, who was wearing a Taoist robe covered with scriptures from the "Duren Jing".

Headless Jin'an sat cross-legged, and the voice of scriptures from the "Duren Sutra" kept coming out from his ventriloquy. They complemented the cinnabar scriptures of the "Duren Sutra" on the Taoist robe he was wearing, and shone brightly in the gray fog.

The arrival of Headless Jin'an did not bring more evil spirits to the black-sailed boat that was haunted by ghosts. Instead, it brought new life to the black-sailed boat that was on the verge of capsizing at any time.

The flame of the Seven-Star Soul-Protecting Lamp on the bow of the ship grew brighter and brighter, as if someone had flickered the candle again.

If the soul lamp is bright, the spirit will be steadfast and will not be confused or troubled by the outside world.

Just like the black-sailed boat at this moment, the dead hands holding the boat under the boat were gradually sinking, and the dead faces that were swollen and rotten and had their eyes open floating under the water were rapidly decreasing amid the sound of the "Duren Jing". The speed of the black-sailed boat was constantly increasing, and it got rid of the shallow water area and the crisis of being stranded.

About an incense stick of time later, all the arms holding the corpses on the boat disappeared, and the black-sailed coffin boat drifted unhindered in the Yinshui River.

Even though the crisis of corpses hugging the boat had been resolved, Headless Jin'an was still sitting cross-legged at the bow, chanting the "Duren Sutra" all the time. His Taoist robe matched beautifully with the scene, creating a miraculous scene of a bright moon rising over the sea in the misty Yinshui River.

This "Sutra for Saving People" is not only for the salvation of those who drowned in the boat and whose bodies were clinging to their eyes but also for the salvation of the masters of the boat coffins, saving people from disasters, settling people's grievances and helping them to reincarnate soon.

Invisibly, there is an additional layer of cause and effect between Headless Jin'an and the owner of the coffin buried on the boat.

It is a good cause that will bring good results.

Wutou Jinan saved the boat coffin burial from capsizing, and helped the boat owner recite the "Duren Sutra" to pray for the souls to be liberated. The boat coffin burial owner politely agreed to let Wutou Jinan take the favorable wind boat.

Drifting along the way with the wind, Headless Jinan saw many wonders in the underworld that could not be seen in the world of the living, such as a group of corpses moving underwater.

Huge waves were rising in the Yinshui River. The zombies all stood upright, without any swelling or rotting. They were all souls who had recently died and were on their way to the underworld.

The only explanation for such a large-scale death in the world of the living is that the seal of the Four Symbols Bureau of Breaking Heaven and Earth had just been broken, and the situation was at its most chaotic in the first one or two months.

In addition, he encountered two black wind disasters.

The black wind disaster can destroy people's souls. The sound of the wind is mixed with many sad and crying sounds, like the howling of ghosts and wolves, drilling into the ears and heart, polluting the human soul and the altar.

Black wind disasters were rarely seen in the past, and Wutou Jinan had almost never encountered one. But today, he had just started traveling for a short while and encountered two black wind disasters in a row. The frequent black wind disasters seemed to foreshadow that the underworld was becoming more turbulent.

In addition to the large number of zombies and frequent black wind disasters, the number of floating corpses on the Yinshui River has also increased sharply compared to the past.

The number of deaths in the world of the living increased in a short period of time, and the number of deaths in the underworld also increased dramatically.

  Boom!

The boat coffin burial shook and hit another floating corpse. With the consciousness of the headless Jin'an, he saw that the boat coffin burial hit a group of corpses.

There were six corpses, male and female, old and young, who hugged each other in fear before they died. It was unknown what kind of horrific scene they had encountered in their lives, but they still hugged each other tightly after death. The adults were outside and the children were inside. They held the children tightly in their arms before they died. This scene shows that the six corpses were from a family of six, the adults were the parents, and this was a tragedy in which the whole family was wiped out.

Seeing the corpses of the six members of the family, the parents faced the horrific scene with expressions of fear and despair on their faces. In the face of the fear of life and death, they still tightly protected the children in their arms. The youngest of the four children was still a swaddled baby... The sound of the "Duren Sutra" was interrupted, as if the headless Jin'an was sighing with regret, and his emotions fluctuated.

Moreover, the corpse showed no signs of swelling, and it looked like the man had died not long ago, perhaps less than ten days or half a month.

Just as the boat coffin burial hit the corpses of a family of six, the headless Jin'an seemed to sense something and turned towards the river bank with his headless torso.

The boat coffin burial had not traveled far when the thick gray fog from the underworld floating on the river suddenly dissipated, revealing a large world of truth.

It was like the clouds suddenly parted to reveal the blue sky, and the scene on the river bank could be clearly seen.

It was a small town built along the river. The town was not big, with only about a hundred households. There was no busy season for spring planting in the paddy fields outside the town. Instead, there was blood flowing like a river, dyeing the hundreds of acres of paddy fields outside the town bright red.

The town is filled with gloomy and spooky atmosphere.

Headless Jin'an stood up solemnly. As the commander of the Criminal Investigation Department, he was in charge of major cases and murders in the world. He already knew where he was now, and he had an impression of this town-destroying tragedy.

At this time, on the river bank outside the town, several groups of Taoists and monks were joining forces to perform rituals, calling back souls from the underworld and liberating the souls of the dead. Countless Taoist children and novices were burning paper money to find various ghosts from the underworld to help clear the way.

When a person is in a state of shock, it is easy for his three souls and seven spirits to fly away, and it is difficult to reincarnate if the three souls and seven spirits are incomplete.

Those waves of Taoist priests and monks set up soul-calling banners, soul-calling bells, lotus lanterns, soul-guiding lanterns, and red lines to build a bridge to the soul...

The corpses of a family of six that the ship coffin burial had previously hit were summoned by these soul-calling altars, and their souls that had been scattered all over the place were returning one by one.

The souls of the townspeople whose souls were summoned included not only this group of corpses, but more and more souls surfaced one after another, gathered in the town from all directions, followed the red line to build a bridge back to the shore, walked into the town, and returned to their homes crying.

The two groups of Taoists and monks who were originally concentrating on performing rituals were frightened by the sudden appearance of the boat coffin burial and the headless Taoist priest, and the rituals were almost interrupted.

This place is a ghostly underworld with countless wronged ghosts and evil spirits wandering around. A strange headless Taoist priest stood on the bow of the ship coffin burial, suddenly appearing in the field of vision, and there was a coffin behind the headless Taoist priest. Anyone would think the headless Taoist priest was dead at first sight! He was the owner of the coffin of this ship coffin burial!

  The fourteenth change is the wind-borrowing technique!

The fifteenth change of cloud technique!

The seventeenth transformation is the Mist-driving Technique!

Headless Jin'an performed three magical skills in succession to dispel the gloomy wind and gray fog near the town, enabling him to see the truth farther away, exchanging it for a clear blue sky in the underworld, which boosted the opening ceremony of the altar at He'an Mountain and added even more power.

After doing all this, he clasped his left hand and right hand together and bowed to the Taoist priests and monks on the river bank, which was a friendly greeting.

Seeing that the headless Taoist priest did not take any action, he brought clear sky to the underworld. The range of the underworld gray fog dispelled by one person was much larger than that dispelled by so many people working together and using magic tools to perform rituals. The group of old Taoist priests and monks on the river bank were all shocked.

They were all shocked by the headless Taoist's unfathomable skills.

They realized that the headless Taoist priest was helping them to summon souls and was a friend rather than an enemy, so they all breathed a sigh of relief. Then, led by a group of old Taoist priests and monks, the disciples all bowed to the headless Taoist priest and expressed their gratitude.
