Yin Fu Daojun

Chapter 45 Appearance
"Hey! Have you heard? The county magistrate sent his brother-in-law to solve the case. This scholar can also solve the case and arrest the murderer?"

"Who said it wasn't! When they were talking, I was standing at the gate of Yicang, and I could hear them clearly. Guess what he said? He even said that the food was stolen, not by the snitches, but by evil spirits!"

"No way! A food robbery case can also be associated with monsters. I'm afraid this kid has read too many stories! By the way, don't monsters and ghosts eat people and drink blood? When did they change to food, hahaha..."

"Hey! How else can I say that the scholar is wronging the country?"

……

During the shift, several government servants had just been replaced from their posts. They met two warehouse officials on the road, and they heard the rumors about the evil spirits stealing the food. They couldn't help getting together and discussing secretly.

Standing on the outskirts of Yicang, Wang Butou looked at a side room in the opposite yard, and felt a little funny in his heart, so he shook his head helplessly.

"Hmph! The demons are haunting you, and you're talking nonsense and fooling people. I'd like to see what skills you have to solve the case and catch the murderer."

Originally, because he was unable to solve the case for a long time, he already had a bad impression in the mind of the county magistrate. Now that this person came, he was directly pushed out of the stage, and all his judgments were overthrown, causing him to be dismissed. The county magistrate had a good scolding, and he was inevitably a little angry.

Even if this person is related to the county magistrate, he still scoffed at him, but on the surface he didn't dare to speak out, but in his heart he secretly slandered.

After all, in his opinion, a mere scholar can achieve great things!

In the wing room, Xie Duan closed the door, took out yellow paper, cinnabar, pen and other things from the Qiankun bag he carried with him, and prepared to make talismans.

When he went down the mountain, although he also brought some talismans with him, they were not very powerful, they were just relatively common talismans, and there were not many of them.

Just in case, I thought about drawing some more Five Thunder Talismans.

The Five Thunder Method is also known as the Five Thunder Correction Method and the Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Correction Method. .

Later, when I traveled to the Qingzhen Cave, I met an old woman, who was said to be the mother of thunder and lightning. She was given the text of drinking wind and rain, which is capable of conquering ghosts and gods and causing thunder and lightning.

Since then, he has been famous all over the world for eliminating drought and curing diseases, helping many people.

Speaking of it, it has only been more than two hundred years since the opening of the Shenxiao Sect. The Daqi Dynasty was established not long ago, and the Patriarch was just born.

Among the five thunder methods, the only ones he can use now are Yunlei and Shelei. In "Jingxiao Dalei Langshu", these two thunder methods are relatively simple and easy to learn.

The reason why it is simple and easy is that these two types of thunder do not need to play Chen Lei's department, and they can be used directly with only a little inspiration.

Follow the instructions in the book.

Yunlei, the master of killing, does not worship the gods of the classics, promotes the work of demons and the five links of Shankui, Buddhist temples, pagodas, houses, and the spirits of Guanyu mountains and rivers.

Shelei, also known as "demon thunder", mainly kills spirits of ancient artifacts, subdues the original spirit, destroys altars and ruins temples, and can be used cheaply without playing Chen Lei's department.

Compared with the other three lightning methods, it can be said to save a lot of steps.

It's a pity that Xie Duan failed to grant the talisman to enter the Tao, otherwise he would stamp the seal on the talisman paper and play Chen Lei's department, taking advantage of the power of the thunder, the power would only be greater.

However, it is more than enough to deal with some little monsters.

Besides, even if it is these two kinds of lightning talismans, it still depends on the depth of his personal knowledge. After all, although the talisman lightning method is strong, it must have the corresponding strength to match it, otherwise it can only be a small horse-drawn cart .

At this time, Xie Duan poured some wine and mixed it with cinnabar powder to make ink. Just now, he picked up the brush and ink, recited the formula silently in his heart, stepped on the step, pinched his finger prints, and drew the thunder pattern ink seal on the yellow paper.

The Five Thunder Talisman belongs to the Yang Talisman, so the steps are indispensable.

Talisman-making is not like drawing a picture, it can be paused, but it has to be drawn from one stroke to the end, with the help of mental power, to draw it completely.

If there is a fault in the middle, then this talisman will be useless.

This is also one of the reasons why some high-grade talismans, because of the complexity of the talisman patterns, have been difficult for Taoists to practice for many years.

It took half an hour before Xie Duan drew two talismans.

One Yunlei Talisman, one She Lei Talisman.

This is quite fast, the general Taoist priest would rather draw ten peace talismans than one five thunder talisman, because it takes time and effort.

He let out a long breath, and put away the two talismans.

The spirit talisman to trigger the thunder and subdue the demon needs his spirit qi to activate it. If it is used many times in a short period of time, it will consume a lot of spirit qi.

Therefore, the talismans are not many, two are enough!
……

Because he didn't know when the evil spirit would come again, Xie Duan could only make preparations to stay for a few more days, especially at night, he had to be extra vigilant, if he was not careful, he might miss it.

In addition to the two Five Thunder Talismans, Xie Duan drew some Shasha-breaking Talismans, and asked the government servants to stick them inside the righteous storehouse while hiding them.

After all, ordinary ghosts and spirits, as long as they are not stupid, will basically avoid spells when they see them. No one is stupid enough to send them to their door to seek death.

After making these arrangements, Xie Duan also has full confidence.

"Dong dong dong..."

In the afternoon, there was a knock on the door outside the wing.

"Come in!"

Xie Duan responded, and then saw a person stepping in.

"Master Xie, my lord sent me to assist you."

Ruan Xiu stepped forward to salute him with fists cupped, respectful.

"Captain Ruan? It's fine if you're here, but it's just hard work for you."

Seeing this person, Xie Duan's expression softened, and he said so.

He still had a good impression of Butou Ruan.

When he made the plan to capture the murderer in the morning, he and Li Qing divided the work and led people here to catch the evil spirits, while Li Qing first took out some food and went to the gates of the major cities to help the refugees.

He ordered Ruan Xiu to lead his men to take turns to be on duty with another Wang Butou. A number of yamen servants blocked the inside and outside of the warehouse.

The first night passed peacefully and nothing happened.

Until the next day, at the hour of Hai, a few stars hung in the night sky, shining light on the earth, and the breeze was blowing, bringing a little bit of warmth.

Xie Duan carried the knife, stepped out of the room, and inspected the warehouse as usual.

The type of sword is a front-facing horizontal sword with a long and narrow blade.

From Shanyin County to Changshan County, this knife accompanied him all the way. After he practiced in Cuixuguan, he carved the Gang Dou talisman on the knife, and blessed the spirit energy, making this knife a Talisman.

In addition to being able to hurt people, it also has a restraining effect on demons and ghosts.

Although many of them use the Big Dipper Sword as a weapon, Xie Duan has become a habit over time because he practiced saber techniques.

"Be more active! Ruan Butou, what's the matter?"

Arriving at the outskirts of the warehouse, the person on duty at this time was Ruan Butou, Xie Duan walked over, reminded, and asked at the same time.

"There is no movement for the time being."

When Ruan Xiu saw him coming, she bowed and answered.

"What about inside the warehouse? The most important thing is not to relax inside!"

Xie Duan first nodded slightly, and then asked again.

"Don't worry! The brothers inside have just changed shifts."

He looked confident, thinking that even if the criminal could pass through their heavy defenses and enter the righteous warehouse, as long as he made a movement, without accident, he would definitely be noticed by the brothers on duty inside.

This time they learned how to be good, and they won't fall into the other party's trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain as they did a few days ago, so that even if they put people inside, they still have food stolen from under their noses.

"That's good, I'll go in and have a look."

Seeing him so complacent, Xie Duan couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

The more you think it is impossible, the easier it is for people to take advantage of it.

He shook off his steps and pushed open the open door, but when the door opened, it was dark inside, and there was not even the slightest light of fire.

"Crack clap..."

A tiny sound came to my ears from somewhere.

"Not good! Come on!"

He first shouted towards the outside, and then pinched his fingers.

"Hehe Yangyang, the sun rises in the east! I ordered this talisman, which is generally unlucky."

Wearing an edict, the six Ding Liujia breaking evil talismans that he had hidden in the righteous warehouse in advance immediately glowed with golden light, illuminating the entire warehouse.

At first glance, four people were lying on the ground, unconscious.

At the same time, Ruan Butou, who was guarding outside, heard the movement, and immediately ordered the warehouse to be surrounded, and he led his people to follow with lanterns.

Due to the heavy location of the warehouse, open flames are not allowed, so whether it is indoors or outdoors, lanterns are used for lighting, and it is also weatherproof.

Originally, two lanterns were lit in the warehouse, but because the gate was closed and the surrounding light was sufficient, no one noticed when the lanterns inside went out.
