Mystery Leaks

Chapter 169 Cultivation is tasteless

When I was riding on the wall, I looked back instinctively, and found that the Japanese named Sagi ran out first, followed by the tomb robber.

After we left the villa, they also turned over the wall, but instead of continuing to chase, they watched us leave.

"Recognized!" I said hastily.Don't say we didn't dress up in disguise, even if we did, the tomb robber would recognize us as long as he wasn't stupid.

Back in the car, Cao Nan immediately turned around and drove towards the countryside.

"What did you hear inside?" Hu Lai asked.

I briefly explained the situation inside, especially the matter of Xu Jiaojiao rolling her eyes and being possessed by the old master.

"Xu Jiaojiao is actually a descendant." Huang Mao said a little speechlessly.

"What is descending?" I wondered.

"It's a physique suitable for being possessed by all kinds of yin things. Most of them are people with a yin nature, and most of them are women." Huang Mao said, seeing that I was a little puzzled, and said: "Disciples, witches, and witches all belong to this category." One category, when they need it, they can summon horse immortals, mountain gods, ghosts and even monsters to possess themselves, fortune-telling and divination, and even fight."

It suddenly dawned on me that Disciple Disciple had heard that it was a god of the Northeast generation, who could possess the disciple Disciple Disciple to manifest spirits.

The sorcerer is even more familiar. There used to be one in the village. After leaving, my whole body twitched again, and when I woke up, I didn't remember anything.

That mother-in-law passed away more than ten years ago.

The sorceress is famous for attracting gods, but in fact, the possessed are ghosts, mountain spirits and monsters, etc. The sorceress collects incense and offerings for it, and the sorceress helps the sorceress to manifest her spirit and get what she needs.Those who rely on mountains are called mountain gods, those who rely on water are called water gods, and those who rely on seas are called sea gods.

Afterwards, Hu Lai talked to me in detail, and I learned a little more about it. Unlike other professions in Buddhist practice, it is relatively easy for witches to enter the profession, but it also requires high physical fitness, that is, it is good enough to descend.

Yin things like yin, and if the yang energy in a person is too strong, no yin thing is willing to possess it, because it is relatively rare to have a body that hurts it.

Some of the more powerful descendants can bear the possession of several yin objects, and even maintain their own consciousness after possession.

"So, that old master is not human?" Cao Nan hit the core of the problem.

Hu Lai nodded, "If it's a human, it's most convenient to make a phone call. There's no need to lower yourself. Even if it's a human, there may be something wrong."

"Xu Jiaojiao is descended, so she is not a Gu girl?" Huang Mao asked me.

I nodded and said yes, and then recounted the content of their conversation, focusing on the Japanese named Sagi.

I always feel that that person may not only come to find some relics, but has other plans.

Back then, the Japanese dropped more than 200 corpses on the mountain. It can be seen that their plan was very large. You must know that when the Japanese power expanded to Lingnan, the war of aggression had already come to an end, and there was a shortage of soldiers everywhere. More than 200 people were not too small.

As a very powerful participant in the past, if you want to run back again, if you say that they have no plans, you will believe it.

"The Sagi family?"

Huang Mao and Hu Lai looked at each other, their expressions changed slightly.

"You...know?" I asked strangely.

Huang Mao nodded and said: "The Sagi family is a very powerful onmyoji family in Japan. When the Japanese invaded, they took advantage of the fire and robbed many good things."

"Is this onmyoji the one we call Mr. Yin and Yang?" I asked. Chen Laogen is a typical Mr. Yin and Yang. Mr. Yin and Yang communicates Yin and Yang, opens the way for the dead, and puts them in funerals.

Because the word Mr. represents a more educated Confucian scholar.

"No, these are two concepts. The Japanese religion is Yin-Yang Dao, which corresponds to our Taoism. Their Onmyojis are equivalent to our Taoist priests." Huang Mao shook his head.

I half-understood, "Then what is the difference between Dharma practice and Taoist priests?"

It seems to be the same. In TV and movies, those who catch ghosts are Taoist priests, the most famous one is Maoshan Taoist priests, but since I came into contact with Dharma practice, I have never seen any Dharma practitioners such as Taoist monks.

On the contrary, Huang Mao, who looks like a ruffian at first glance, and Hu Lai, who looks like a beggar, are people who practice legal affairs. The difference is a bit big.

Huang Mao explained: "Fashixing specializes in dealing with ghosts and evil spirits. Taoist priests are detached from the world, pursuing the Dao of heaven and earth, and immersing themselves in self-cultivation. It is clear."

What I heard was still half-knowledgeable and foggy.

Hu Lai saw that I was puzzled, and said: "It's very simple. The real Taoist priests and monks are all those who eat fast and chant scriptures on the mountain. They will not go down the mountain easily. They like to practice, and their number is very small. Those who go down the mountain to tinker with various things ask for money. Yes, basically they are all liars, if it is someone from the law firm pretending to be good, they are more or less capable, and the fear is that outsiders who don’t know anything will bluff and cheat and pretend to be fake.”

I nodded, and finally understood a little bit. Taoist priests and monks are pole flags. Whoever needs them can use them. Anyway, people believe them.

And the real Taoist monks disdain to step into the world of mortals to fight for profit. What is detached from the world is that even if there is gold in the world, I will stand still and sit firmly in the mountain.

"But there is a little difference. Japanese onmyojis are worldly. They are the same as our Dharma practice. They are deeply involved in the disputes of power territories. In addition, they also take self-cultivation into account, so they are often very powerful." Hu Lai said.

"Cultivation?" I was taken aback, and said, "Really, you didn't lie to me?"

Cultivation sounds very fantasy, and Huang Mao and Hu Lai have hardly heard it mentioned before. At first hearing, it feels very fresh.

"Don't get excited, this is the Dharma-ending era, and the difference between those who practice and those who don't is actually not that big. At most, the talismans made by those who practice are better, and they are better when exorcising ghosts and killing ghosts. Don't think about the others. "Huang Mao said.

"Is that so?" I was speechless for a while, thinking about it, if people can practice, it would be too scary.

"What is the Age of Doom?" Cao Nan asked curiously.

Huang Mao pondered for a while, and said: "This has to be traced back to the pre-Qin period. Before Qin, there were Qi practitioners. They breathed out the essence of heaven and earth, strengthened themselves, and were omnipotent. In short, they were gods. , not only people can practice, but ghosts, demons, and evil spirits can also practice. But in the post-Qin period, for some reason, the essence of heaven and earth gradually dried up, most of the original practice methods were abandoned, and the road to practice was cut off. The last glimmer."

"Now there are still some practice methods, but they are useless. At most, they can increase the power of the talismans, and they are stronger when dealing with ghosts and evil spirits. Don't even think about it, and practice is very difficult. It is completely half the effort. , The difference between giving and getting is too big, and there are only two words to describe it, tasteless!" Hu Lai also said.

Huang Mao took over the conversation and added: "Onmyoji originated from the Taoist talisman sect in the Tang Dynasty. They carried forward the talismans and walked out of another way. In order to increase the power of the talismans, they also practiced some methods, so when they met him, Be careful with the talisman in his hand."

"Oh." I nodded and said, "You mean, Japanese onmyojis are very good at talismans?"

"Yes." Huang Mao snapped his fingers and said, "Actually, we also have talisman masters in Huaxia. Unfortunately, the catastrophe 30 years ago severely damaged the vitality of Dharma. Today, the highest level of talisman production is the Onmyoji in Japan."

"Shenzhou Lu Chenna, in terms of the level of legal affairs, not only Japan is better than us, but even the countries of South Asia and Southeast Asia, Taiwan, and Hong Kong are better than us." Hu Lai shook his head and sighed.

I was speechless for a while. The catastrophe 30 years ago really brought a catastrophe to Fashixing.

Get rid of all "superstitions", so that Fashixing has no living space at all.Grandpa was forced to leave his hometown by that catastrophe and never came back for 20 years.

It was also those 20 years that changed everything in the Meng family.
