I have a weird dynasty

Chapter 160: How to Use the Hexagrams (asking for monthly tickets)

Yu Da has a wealth of knowledge, and Sang Que has learned a lot of practical skills from him, as well as some methods of dealing with common evil spirits.

Just like the Blood-Clothed Demon, if Yu Da hadn't told her that she could use a peach wood bow and thorn arrows to temporarily pin it down, she would probably have to use a lot of demon fog to trap the Blood-Clothed Demon.

Ever since Yu Da reminded her, Sang Que has also paid special attention to the changes in her body every time she used the evil mist.

The frequent use of evil fog did not have no effect on her. Even though she had perfectly controlled the Yin Tong and controlled the village resentment through the Yin Tong, the power of the evil spirit was still slowly eroding her body.

Now she always looks pale and her body is colder than that of ordinary people. The symptoms of anemia are getting worse and worse. She has been taking Chinese medicine and relying on food supplements when she is at home.

She also had a corpse-like stench on her body, because the village resentment had devoured the old monk's cursed heart, leaving her blood with the aroma of jade wine, which covered up the corpse stench.

Also, every time she used the Yin Tong power, her body would become stiff, but it didn't show up because she practiced martial arts every day, which accelerated her blood circulation.

In the noodle shop, Yu Da ordered two bowls of braised pork noodles with extra ingredients. After mixing them well, the aroma filled his nose. He picked up a handful of soy sauce-colored noodles with chopsticks, blew on them twice, and couldn't wait to inhale them like a storm.

"Waiter, give me some garlic."

If you don't add garlic to your noodles, the flavor will be half gone. The Gui Dynasty already had garlic and chili peppers.

Sang Que asked while mixing noodles, "Lao Yu, last time you told me that the Daoist sect also casts coins for warding off evil and engraves spells on one side of the coins. What spells are commonly used? I want to collect each one. It feels very interesting."

Yu Da took the garlic from the waiter and peeled it.

"It's the incantations that invoke the power of the Dao Lord. They're pretty much the same."

"Besides Daojun, are there no spells to summon other ghosts and gods?"

The words "Taishang Laojun, please obey the order as soon as possible" are engraved on Sangque's talisman coins, but there is no Taishang Laojun in the Gui Dynasty.

Yu Da shook his head, "No, there is only one Taoist Lord in our Xuan Dynasty. If there is another Taoist deity, I'm afraid there won't be enough incense to share."

Sang Que lowered her head and ate noodles thoughtfully. She had always thought that the coin for warding off evil was from the Gui Dynasty, but now it seemed that her coin was a modern product.

Modern talismanic coins can open the door to the Gui Dynasty. Does this mean that everything in the Gui Dynasty now was passed down from modern times?
Could it be that it is because modern people opened this door that the evil spirits of the Ghost Dynasty came to the modern era, causing paranormal events to begin to occur in modern times?
Sang Que was guessing, while Yu Da took a sip of noodles with garlic and continued, "The Taoist talisman coins are often engraved with the Eight Trigrams pattern. The Eight Trigrams can suppress ghosts, which corresponds to the Eight Gates in Qi Men Dun Jia, and each of the Eight Gates has its own magical use."

Sang Que's eyes lit up slightly. He put down his chopsticks and started peeling garlic, waiting for Yu Da to continue.

In addition to opening the door between the two worlds, the eight hexagrams of her lucky coins have their own uses, but she has only developed two of them so far.

One is the Gen Gua which corresponds to the Shengmen. It can heal, but the effect is very weak. No matter how serious the injury is, it can only save her from the near-death state, but it will no longer accelerate the healing of the injury or restore her strength.

She was just hanging on to her last breath. Fortunately, after the village resentment swallowed the old monk's heart, she was able to speed up the healing of her wounds by replenishing her qi and blood because of the curse.

Regarding this point, my mother and she have always had a guess, that is, by directly sucking human blood, the injuries will recover faster.

The other is the fusion of the eight trigrams, which can seal the evil spirits with the "Mountain Ghost Seal".

The evil spirits that were marked as mountain ghosts could have their own thoughts, but they could not resist her orders.

When she wasn't paying attention to the evil spirits, they could still find opportunities to do bad things. For example, the last time she was busy fighting the fish woman, Yin Tong sneaked away and took the ghost eye from He Buning.

If she died, would the Mountain Ghost Seal disappear, allowing Yin Tong and Cun Yuan to return to freedom? Or would she take Yin Tong and Cun Yuan with her to die?

Seeing that Yin Tong always acted like a loser, Sang Que guessed that it was the first situation. If she died, Yin Tong would be free.

So far, she has only used the Mountain Ghost Seal on Yin Tong and Cun Yuan. When she used the Cun Yuan Seal for the second time, her body couldn't bear it. She became severely stiff and had a lot of corpse spots on her body. It took her a whole night to recover slowly, so she didn't dare to try to control another evil spirit.

In fact, she has not used Yin Tong and Cun Yuan thoroughly enough. Cun Yuan is used as a heart by Yin Tong. She can only use the power of Cun Yuan to maintain the theater and use the ability of resuscitation and rapid recovery. Yin Tong's ability is not only the evil fog, but also the hands of Yin Tong can dismember. Previously, she only let Yin Tong dismember people and never tried to dismember ghosts.

Next time you encounter a fourth-level evil ghost that you can fight against, you can try it and see if you can use the little hands of the Yin child to pull out the Yin object.

Use the useful ones yourself, exchange the unuseful ones for merit points, and then use the merit points to exchange for the useful ones.

She has not yet discovered the uses of other hexagrams of the evil-averting coin, which is definitely related to her lack of understanding of the hexagrams.

Her mother also tried to cram her knowledge in this area, but it was of no use. It seemed that she lacked some opportunity, just like the feeling in martial arts novels, of breaking through the shackles between life and death.

Yu Da's voice brought Sang Que back to his senses.

"Qi Men Dun Jia is very profound, but I don't know much about it."

"It's just a casual chat. Just tell me what you know." Sang Que said casually.

Yu Da bit half a garlic, "I just know that the Gen hexagram corresponds to the Shengmen, which belongs to the earth, which means that the earth gives birth to all things and the yang energy turns around. The Simen corresponds to the Kun hexagram, which also belongs to the earth, corresponding to the Shengmen, which means that all things stagnate and life is extinct. The Shangmen corresponds to the Zhen hexagram, which belongs to the wood, and the wood will break when it is strong. I don't know what it means."

"There is also Kaimen, which belongs to metal and corresponds to Qian Gua, the first of the Eight Guas. It means opening a door for good luck. Some Taoists can use Qian Jin sharp tools to cut open the third eye between their eyebrows, and then see through the laws of evil spirits. This is borrowing the power of Kaimen."

Insight into the law? Sangque had some vague inspiration.

"I can't remember the rest. You can ask a Taoist priest for advice. He's more reliable than me."

When Sang Que went to ask the Taoist priest for advice, he immediately thought of Yao Zhen, but he didn't know where she was at the moment.

"Oh, by the way, our Xuan Dynasty Shengjing City is an Eight Diagrams City. It was built according to the correspondence between the Eight Diagrams and the Eight Gates. It is extremely mysterious. No evil ghost dares to enter Shengjing City. You can go and see it when you have a chance in the future."

After eating and drinking, Yu Da rubbed his stomach, paid the bill, and asked Sang Que to go back early to rest, just like taking half a day off.

Tomorrow she will continue to patrol the streets with Yu Da and deal with trivial matters related to evil spirits in the city. If she works for another fifteen days, she will have completed a month and can officially take over the job of Night Patrol.

Returning to his own courtyard, Sang Que saw Xia Chan practicing using her hair to twist and break wood. Her soft black hair was entangled around the wooden pillar. Xia Chan frowned and stomped her feet, and the wood as thick as a person was twisted and broken in an instant.

"Sister, do you think I'm awesome?"

Xia Chan's eyes were full of anticipation, and Sang Que pursed his lips, nodded, and gave a thumbs up.

God knows, those pieces of wood were bought by her specially to build plum blossom piles, but now they have all been cut by the summer cicadas and she has to buy them again.

"Xiao Chan, why don't you go to school tomorrow?"

"No! Xiao Chan doesn't want to go to school! The teacher is bad!" Xia Chan protested loudly.

Sang Que sighed. Didn’t He Buning think Xiao Chan was his sister? Why didn’t he come to care about her and make arrangements?
In the afternoon, Sang Que had the rare opportunity to organize and record what she had learned recently, and also guided Xia Chan in her practice. In the evening, when Xuan Yu came back from a walk, she also caught him and trained him for an hour.

Xuan Yu was very cooperative and also very vindictive. He refused to let her touch him at night and only stuck to Xia Chan.

Sang Que slept soundly all night, and the fatigue of the past few days was finally relieved.

The next morning, Sang Que got up before dawn to practice as usual. She had just started practicing the opening moves when someone banged on the door of her house.

As soon as Sang Que opened the door, he saw Yu Da who looked anxious.

"Something happened over there with Wei Wu, let's go over there quickly."

Sang Que was not surprised at all when he heard the news.
