The Secret Art of Refining the Dead: The Walking Corpse File

Chapter 10 Little Black
Just when the incense was extinguished, in the quiet room, suddenly there was a cat meowing, the sound was very ear-piercing, I looked in the direction from which the sound came, and found that the black cat had arched its back at this moment, its whole body His hair stood on end, as if facing a formidable enemy.

Most importantly, its eyes were staring straight at me.The eyes of cats always give people a very cold feeling. I took a step back, worried that the cat would suddenly attack me. I haven’t recovered my physical strength yet, so it would not be a good thing if it scooped me up in the face.

When Tan Ren heard the cat meowing, he whistled, and the cat became obedient immediately, and its bristled fur slowly let down, which surprised me greatly.

I felt a little curious, and asked: "Boss, I haven't seen you keep it. This cat is very strange. It just stays in this room and doesn't run around." The longing is very strong. It is really rare for a cat to stay in a room obediently and not go anywhere.

After I finished speaking, Tan Ren stood up and said, "This is a spiritual pet, which is different from ordinary cats."

"Spiritual pet?" Although I don't have much social experience, I like to read miscellaneous books on weekdays. I think I know a lot, but since I joined this Tan Xuan office, I found that I seem to have become For a particularly 'ignorant' person, I am often at a loss for some terms that Tan Ren said.

He really didn't hide it, and probably felt that he had nothing to hide, so he told me the reason for his spiritual pet.

Those who raise spiritual pets are generally Taoist priests and some folk magicians, monks and the like don't raise them.The so-called spiritual pets are psychic pets, among which black cats and black dogs are the most common.The black dog is the ultimate yang, and the black cat is the ultimate yin.Raising a black dog can ward off evil spirits and improve the owner's fortune, while black cats are Yin, they can be very sensitive to find unclean things around them, and warn the owner, powerful black cats can also catch ghosts directly.

However, raising spiritual pets is different from raising ordinary pets. Take the black cat raised by Tan Ren as an example. Its name is rather vulgar, and it is called 'Xiao Hei'. It is estimated that Tan Ren is lazy, so he named it casually. .Little Black Tan Ren has been raised for six years.

Six years ago, Tan Ren was still in the Three Sons Temple in Xiangxi. On that day, under the guidance of his master, he decided to raise a spiritual pet, so he inquired about the surrounding houses in advance, who had cats with cubs, and then Keep watch during the two days when the cat is due to give birth.

After the cat is born, it cannot see the sun, so pick the pure black one and put it in a box to take away, and then bring it back to Sanziguan to raise it.During the entire breeding process, the spiritual pet cannot touch strangers, only the owner, let alone the sun.

In this way, pets are actually very easy to die. Long-term depression and lack of sunlight will cause many pet diseases. Therefore, those who can survive under such harsh conditions are preliminary spiritual pets.

The reason why it is called preliminary is because there is still a long way to go.A qualified spiritual pet, such as Tan Ren, in Tan Ren's words, it is intelligent, its intelligence is equivalent to that of a five-year-old child, and its ability to perceive Yin Qi is very strong. Can reach the point of 'catching ghosts'.

So, what is ghost hunting?
Are there really such things as ghosts in the world?
Regarding this point, Tan Ren didn't go into details, but only briefly mentioned it. He described ghosts as a kind of spiritual aura that survived after death. When encountering ghost energy, there will be a phenomenon of bumping into ghosts.

And Xiao Hei can directly penetrate these ghosts.

To give a simple example, if you are picked up by an ordinary cat, you will get the last cat paw print on your body, but if you are picked up by a spiritual pet, what you get back is the human spirit, which is the so-called soul. That kind of damage is very serious , One paw down, people will be languid for ten days and a half months.

Tan Ren also told me a story about a spirit pet guarding the spirit. Of course, the spirit pet in this story is of a very high level.

It is said that in a dilapidated place, there lived an old woman who was very old, said to be over a hundred years old, who lived alone and seldom went out on weekdays.

Just in time for the urban-rural transformation, the house where the grandmother lives is very old, and the surrounding residents have also been demolished. Only the grandmother is a stubborn household and refuses to leave.It was useless for the developers to persuade them at first, and then they invited government personnel.As the saying goes, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and it is normal for officials in small places to abuse their power, so they forcibly demolish them.

On the day of the demolition, the grandmother hid in the house and refused to come out, but a black cat came out.

When the black cat died, his eyes were wide open, and he looked at the room where the old grandmother lived. Immediately afterwards, the old grandmother came out of the room, holding the black cat's body and crying bitterly, which made the people around feel very strange, a dead cat That's all, as for?

After crying, the old lady ignored the demolition team and found a place with a backlight to bury the black cat. Just as she finished burying the black cat, her whole body suddenly twitched, and then fell to the ground with a bang , no more sound.

The weirdest thing was that her body was quickly turned into ashes.

This kind of weird thing is naturally suppressed, and only some knowledgeable people know the way of it.

It turned out that the old lady should have died a long time ago, just because she had a spiritual pet, and it was a very powerful spiritual pet.This spiritual pet can cover up the yin energy of a person, and it can also tickle ghosts. The superstitious saying is that black and white impermanence cannot take away the soul of the old lady, because there is a black cat blocking it.

But now that the black cat dies, black and white impermanence will naturally come.

When talking about this, Tan Yan looked at me and said: "It barked at you just now, it seems that the unclean thing is still in your body."

The unclean thing naturally refers to the bug.I looked at Xiao Hei in the corner, and immediately felt a little admiration for this cat, but then, I suddenly felt something was wrong.

If Xiao Hei can feel something 'unclean', then what did it call me just now?At best, I ate a poisonous bug, but Tan Ren didn't say that it can still sense poisonous bugs?

Obviously, Tan Ren had thought of this a long time ago. He touched his chin and said, "It seems that the thing you ate may not be as simple as a bug." After thinking about it, he told me to rest at home by myself. We are temporarily closed for two days.

At this moment, the phone in the office rang, and the ear-piercing ringing interrupted our train of thought. Tan Ren didn't ask me this time, but went to answer the phone by himself.

"Hello, Tan Xuan's office."

Tan Ren said something, and then he didn't say anything, it seemed that the other party was talking about something, and seeing that his face became extremely ugly in an instant, after a while, he gritted his teeth and said: "So it's your fault. It will not end well if you help the tyrant to do evil."

Hearing this, I immediately understood that the caller Tan Ren not only knew him, but also might be the mastermind of this bug incident.I immediately leaned over and listened carefully, and then I heard the other party's voice faintly coming from the phone. It turned out to be a woman's voice, very charming, and I was even smiling happily on the other end of the phone at the moment.

However, as soon as the laughter stopped, she said: "That person's money is used to ward off disasters. It was originally a gift prepared for you, but I didn't expect it to be cheaper for the kid next to you. I have raised this 'infernal corpse insect' for a long time. It’s a waste to use it on that kid. Why, you still want to save him? Well, our boss wants to see you, as long as you agree, I will spare that kid’s life.”

When I heard this, I couldn't help scolding my mother: "Smelly bitch, it's you who did the trick. You have a charming voice, but your heart is more poisonous than snakes and scorpions!" The name is disgusting enough.

On the other end of the phone, when the woman heard my voice, she suddenly smiled coquettishly, and said, "Oh, so the handsome guy is also beside me, do you like the gift my sister gave you? Femme heart? Since you describe me like that, sister How can I let you down?" My heart skipped a beat, just when I felt something was wrong, suddenly, I felt another colic in my abdomen, and the pain that made me want to die yesterday started again!

Damn, I immediately understood that this woman can still manipulate this bug!

This kind of pain is difficult to describe in words. Really, I don’t know how to describe it because I don’t read much. In short, from the moment of cramping, my legs are weak, and I can’t stand upright at all. First he fell to his knees, and then he couldn't even kneel down, so he just rolled around on the ground.

"Ah..." Before I hung up the phone, I tried not to let myself scream out, this kind of thing of crying and rolling in front of the enemy should be endured by a man.Unfortunately, in the end, I couldn't help it at all, and the vocal cords were not under human control at all.

Along with my screams, the woman's coquettish laughter sounded from the other end of the phone.

"Little handsome guy, did my sister make you feel comfortable? In fact, my sister is very caring. I took a look at you from a distance yesterday. You are quite handsome. My sister really can't bear to lay hands on you. Hey, it's a pity, you guys The boss doesn't understand the rules. How about...you beg him? Ask him to agree to my conditions, and I'll let you go?"
