Black Myth: Tang Dynasty

Chapter 10 Earthbound Spirit Red Clothes
Under the moonlight, Lee Daoxuan suddenly found that he had overlooked many details.

Compared with other villagers, although Wang Chunsheng's complexion is ruddy, he is clear-headed and more alive, but his body is very light.

Just now Li Daoxuan dragged him to flee for his life, but he didn't feel much effort.

But in reality, he was a tall, slightly fat man.

Wang Chunsheng himself was also very confused. He looked at Li Daoxuan with a hint of pleading in his eyes, and said, "I'm not, Taoist priest, I'm really not, don't listen to his nonsense..."

But Li Daoxuan took a few steps back silently, moving away from him.

The Taoist priest in yellow sneered, and said to Wang Chunsheng, "Do you still remember when you entered this village?"

"Of course I remember, I went to the mountain to collect herbs last night and wasted my time, so I strayed into this village!"

Wang Chunsheng immediately said excitedly.

"Hehe, what did you do last night?"

"I was walking on the street, and I met Mr. Chen. He invited me to the wedding. I'm a greedy drinker, so I followed him. Then I met the Taoist leader!"

A light flashed in Li Daoxuan's eyes, and he sighed softly in his heart. It seemed that what the yellow-robed Taoist priest said was true, and Wang Chunsheng really had a problem.

He asked, "Brother Wang, we just met tonight, did you go to the wedding last night?"

"Yeah, I—"

Wang Chunsheng froze in place, his eyes were dull, his pupils dilated, revealing a trace of pain.

"Yes, I went to the wedding last night. Why did I attend it again tonight? What happened in the middle?"

He covered his head, and traces of black air began to emerge from his body.

"Can't remember, I can't remember..."

Li Daoxuan pinched another Five Thunder Talisman in his hand, but the yellow robe Taoist stepped forward and blocked him.

"You were dead, just last night!"

The voice of the yellow-robed Taoist priest was like Hong Zhong Da Lu, majestic and unpredictable, with an inexplicable Taoist rhyme, echoing in the ancestral hall for a long time.

Wang Chunsheng knelt down on the ground with his head down, unable to see his eyes, and his voice was low and hoarse.

"Yes, I'm already dead. Just last night, I rushed up to save the bride, but they all turned into evil spirits and devoured me..."

Wang Chunsheng raised his head, blood gushed out all over his body, his eye sockets were hollow, and his eyes had disappeared.

"They ate my heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys. It wasn't enough. They also plucked out my eyes. I died a terrible death, a terrible death!"

Resentment boiled on his body, and he rushed towards the yellow-robed Taoist priest.

"Decree from the Supreme, Super Ru's lonely soul, all ghosts and ghosts, all four lives are blessed, urgent as a law, accept!"

The yellow-robed Taoist priest took out a black jar from nowhere, chanted mantras, and pointed at Wang Chunsheng.

"Nie Yi, hurry up and enter my altar!"

The next moment, Wang Chunsheng's body suddenly turned into countless streaks of black mist, which was sucked into the small jar.

The yellow-robed Taoist closed the lid, only to see that the lid was still shaking, as if there was a force constantly hitting inside.

But the yellow-robed Taoist priest took out a piece of talisman paper with ease and pasted it on the mouth of the altar, and the altar suddenly became quiet.

The whole process was like flowing clouds and flowing water, and the yellow-robed Taoist priest was calm and composed, without the slightest panic.

Li Daoxuan leaned over, looked at the black jar in surprise, but smelled a faint smell of urine.

As if feeling Li Daoxuan's gaze, the yellow-robed Taoist smiled and said, "I came in a hurry, and I accidentally took it into a chamber pot. Let's make do with it."

Li Daoxuan was speechless for a moment, and mourned in silence for Brother Wang, who would suffer such cruel and inhumane treatment after his death.

"Master Daoist, what is so weird about this village, and why are you...in the coffin?"

Witnessing the opponent's astonishing Taoism, Li Daoxuan decided to hug his thighs quickly and chat first to gain affection.

The Taoist priest in yellow robe pointed to the jar and said, "The evil spirits in this village are actually earth-bound spirits just like the man in the jar."

"Earthbound Spirit?"

Li Daoxuan remembered that these three words were mentioned in the book of Sang Mo Tian, ​​but his own knowledge was limited, so he didn't know what it meant.

Huang Pao Daochang sighed: "The ground binding spirit is actually quite pitiful, even after death, people don't know that they are dead, and they still do the things before death day after day, repeating the day before death, once they are caught When people wake up, they will turn into evil spirits."

Li Daoxuan asked in surprise: "So, the villagers in the whole village are all earth-bound spirits?"

He remembered that at the wedding scene, when Wang Chunsheng went to rescue the bride, he mentioned the reporter, that is to say, when he heard those two words, the villagers would suddenly become evil spirits.

The Taoist priest in yellow robe nodded, glanced at Li Daoxuan, and said: "It's boring to be idle anyway, Daoist, I will tell you the story of this village, so that you little Taoist priest can learn more."

Li Daoxuan immediately said: "I will listen carefully."

The yellow-robed Taoist priest seemed to be juggling a trick, and there was an extra wine gourd in his hand. He took a sip of the strong wine and said, "In the fifth year of Wude, this is still a peaceful small village called Lijia Village."

"Because the village is deep in the mountains, it is far away from wars and is peaceful and stable. There is also a sorceress in the village who understands some Taoism and can protect them from the harassment of mountain ghosts and spirits. Their lives are quite peaceful."

"Until one day, a disease suddenly broke out in the village."

"Because of the epidemic, many people died in the village. Some people wanted to escape from the village to seek medical treatment. But at that time, Liu Heizai took advantage of the Turks to raise troops and occupied Hongzhou and Dingzhou. He confronted Li Tang. He heard that the plague broke out here. To prevent the epidemic from spreading to the army, they sent troops to surround the place heavily, and then, one night, they set fire to the entire village and burned it to ashes!"

Li Daoxuan wondered: "But why is there a wedding in the village?"

The yellow-robed Taoist sneered and said, "Do you really think that the disease appeared naturally?"

Before Li Daoxuan could speak, he continued: "Did you see those red lanterns outside? It's actually a big yin-gathering formation, which was set up by masters to gather the yin energy of the three mountains, in order to raise a powerful one." ghost!"

"Raising ghosts?"

"Master Dao, I noticed something was wrong when I first entered the village. There are obviously traces of formations here. Later, I came to the ancestral hall and took the old ghost in the coffin. He told me that after the outbreak of the epidemic that year, there was a wandering Taoist priest into their village."

"The wandering Taoist told them that if they wanted to be rescued, they would have to hold a wedding ceremony. He also called out their names. The bride must be Miss Chen, because she was born in a cloudy time. Born, most loved by the plague god."

Speaking of this, the yellow-robed Taoist priest said disdainfully: "You bullshit is trying to get rid of the plague with joy, that wandering Taoist priest clearly took a fancy to Miss Chen's family, if a woman with a birth date like this dies with resentment, she will easily become a ghost. Coupled with the years of nourishment from the Yin Gathering Formation, it is enough to raise a red dress!"

"Red clothes?"

Li Daoxuan was a little puzzled.

"After a person dies, if he has deep grievances, he may turn into an evil ghost. He is a malicious ghost. The threat is not too great. Ordinary people can survive if their lives are hard and their yang fire is strong, but evil ghosts Going one step further, turning into a ghost, will be a bit tricky."

"Ordinary people, no matter how hard their characters are when they face a ghost, they will definitely die. Even monks are in great danger. Among the ghosts, the most powerful one is the red-clothed ghost. If a ghost in red is born, tsk tsk, Fangyuan Within a hundred miles, don’t even think about living things.”

Li Daoxuan thought of the bride's red wedding dress, which was dark red like blood, and felt a chill in his heart.

So he had passed by such a powerful red-clothed ghost?

"You should have seen the bride too. She is the eldest lady of the Chen family. She was forced to hold a wedding and was full of resentment. On the wedding night, Liu Heitai ordered people to set fire to the village. None of the villagers survived. Bound spirits, attending weddings day after day."

"As for the young miss of the Chen family, who was controlled by the formation, she had to marry every night. Every time she repeated it, her resentment deepened. By now, she may have already become so resentful that she turned into a red-clothed ghost!"

There was a hint of murderous intent in the eyes of the yellow-robed Taoist priest, and he said: "To this day, the red-clothed Taoist has been cultivated, and the wandering Taoist should also come back to pick the fruits, otherwise it will not be easy for him to subdue the red-clothed out of trouble. "
