Chapter 64: Taoist Formation (Subscription Requested)
"You, you can't do everything according to people's wishes, look at now, the drudgery and tiring work in the yamen are not thrown on your head every time," the Hun family complained, and by the way, he put on the clean official uniform that was washed by the pulp to Zhou Laoshi, and straightened the square collar, how dirty and dirty this suit was a few days ago, and it was said that it was still stained by ghosts.
"Then what can I do? It's not that you don't know my problem, or your ears are soft, and as long as you open your mouth with a higher official position than me, then I will immediately be sent to the gods, and in the end I can't do it. β
"You are sick, you have to be cured, I heard that the Taoist priest of Qingcheng Mountain is very powerful, didn't you happen to go with him to investigate the case recently, go and ask, see if there is a way?"
"Let's talk about it," Zhou honestly said vaguely, he was really embarrassed to say this problem, and the case has not been closed yet, how can he care about other things.
When he arrived in front of Li's house, he saw a beautiful woman who had just sat in a sedan chair, the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were shining brightly, he vaguely remembered that it was the widow of Dong in the west of the city, known as one of the most beautiful women in Luodu, I don't know how many men's souls were hooked, but there was a memorial arch given by the emperor Lao'er, only the greed, no one really had the guts;
He didn't dare to think about it, he hurriedly walked in, and the one who opened the door was a big-faced strong woman, called Sister Pomegranate, if it was said that the Dong family was beautiful and didn't dare to let people look at it more, this one was ugly and didn't dare to look at it directly, with a convex face, a green onion nose, and an abnormal flush on both sides of the cheeks.
When he found Daoist Li, he saw that he was sitting with a black-clothed masked man sitting next to a large iron stove, the masked man took out some strange instruments from time to time, and the Taoist priest was even more fussed, saying what high-temperature welding, mini lathes, mold shaping or something, are all words that he has never heard of, seeing that the two, especially Daoist Li is still in full swing, he can't help but say: "Daoist, are we still investigating the case today?"
"Hmm, oh! Detective, of course, didn't you see that I brought you all the helpers," the Taoist priest patted the man in black on the shoulder, "Solve the case first, and then get down to business." β
'Feelings are in your heart, this case is not a serious matter,' Zhou honestly thought secretly, but he didn't dare to say it.
The three of them, this time Wei Ge'er didn't follow, replaced by Sima chasing the murderer, from a pig teammate to a god assistant, and once again came to the dilapidated alley where the oil seller was infested before, Li Daoshi said: "Brother Sima, there is an interrogation from the government, those who buy gutter oil should not lie, and the oil seller must often haunt here, but I can't detect the breath of demons and monsters, so I suspect that it is a ghost rather than a ghost, but if it is a ghost, we have no means to investigate, and I will hand it over to you, brother." β
Sima Chai's murder nodded silently, and after looking back and forth a few times, he took out a small bottle, the liquid in the bottle was colorless and odorless, I don't know what material it was, and with a hand, a chain shot out of the cuff, and wiped the liquid on the chain head, and then the chain head was like a spirit snake out of a hole, swimming back and forth on the ground.
Zhou Laoshi was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Dao Chief, what is this, what is this!"
"I don't have any knowledge, this is a magic weapon made by the Mo family's mechanism technique mixed with the wooden bird soul method of the public loss class, it's not a thing," Li Daoshi fiddled with the knowledge he had just learned, looking like an old driver.
After only a moment, the head of the chain suddenly fixed somewhere and did not move, Sima chased the murderer hurriedly stepped forward, and painted a pattern in the palm of his hand with blood and water, which was composed of the 'gold, wood, water, fire, and earth' of the ancient seal, and shouted in his mouth: "The golden water manifests, the wood and stone appear, and the form appears!"
I forgot to say that this guy is also a cultivator, and Daoist Li expressed all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred.
Sure enough, footprints began to appear on the ground, and I turned left along the alley, and sure enough, I found an important clue!
"Brother Sima, you are worthy of being a ghost catcher, this can be found out for you, it's good enough," Li Daoshi sighed with all kinds of emotion, and Zhou Laoshi was directly stunned, the one in front of him is the first catcher in the world?!
On the way, Daoist Li was pondering how to get close to the other party, and then mixed the bottle of liquid in his hand, so he deliberately praised: "This Mo family's methods are really clever, and even traces of the essence can be found." β
"This is the five elements of water, the essence is mostly transformed by the five elements, and it is natural to distinguish it, by the way, this is the Taoist rune water. β
β......β
Although the other party invisibly slapped his swollen face, but just kidding! The Taoist priest's face is swollen and disappears, after all kinds of dead beggars, he finally successfully got this bottle of Five Elements Water, but this formula is not even known to Sima himself, it is said that it was given by a Taoist friend, when did a Taoist friend be so powerful, better than foreign friends?
The footprints finally stopped in front of an old mansion, and through the plaque covered with dusty cobwebs, only a tall letter could be faintly seen.
"Gao's house!" Zhou Laoshi blurted out.
"Why, you know this house?"
"This Gao family used to be a famous time-honored oil shop in Luodu, but later it seems that there was a mistake in the process of making oil, and a fire burned the whole family to death, it was more than ten years ago!"
Daoist Li pushed open the door, and as Zhou honestly said, the house was already scorched black up and down, and the beams, faΓ§ade, ground, including the old tree in the courtyard were all as dry as firewood;
"There's movement in the mill!" Sima said suddenly.
A few people looked through the window, and sure enough, they saw that the millstone was spinning on its own, but the soybeans in it were already swollen and rotten, emitting a peculiar stench of plants, and there was some unknown turbid liquid in the sauce jar next to it.
"I'll set up a formation to lure this essence here, you hide it first," Sima Chaijun said as he took out the iron black sticks from his body, and inserted them one by one on the ground in the order of the nine palace gossip, his steps were indiscriminate, and his fingers and arms moved regularly, as if he was doing a Zhai Jiao ritual.
The Taoist priest is simply a groove for me, you are a layman, how can you know more than the Taoist master and me, the elite in the industry, I don't know how to arrange this formation Taoist myself, bah! I almost said that I missed my mouth, but I am not proficient.
"Sit in Tiangang and follow the Quartet. The spring is in the earthquake position, and the summer occupies the fire side. Autumn is coming, and winter is in the township. Zu Qi has four lives, and Fu Qi follows Gang. The bucket turns at any time, and the ...... is whirling."
The Taoist formation is to cooperate with the performance of Bu Tiangang, and the Taoist priest does not know what kind of gang step the other party is stepping on, only knowing that with his rhythmic steps, the thin mist begins to rise, and from time to time there will be a small wind, making a 'woo' sound.
"Dao Chief, is this a demon law?" Zhou honestly said in fear.
"! This is an authentic Taoist method that can no longer be authentic. β
Before the Taoist priest continued to popularize Taoist common sense to the other party, the door opened with a 'squeak', and a figure pushing a small truck appeared, wearing a big hat, making people unable to see the appearance clearly, and there were two buckets hanging on the body, constantly working near the old tree, and making the sound of flushing from time to time.
"Let's go, let's take a look," Daoist Li expected that his safety could be guaranteed in the formation manipulated by Brother Sima, so he patted Zhou Laoshi on the shoulder and asked him to go with him to see the true face of this soy sauce lang.
When the Taoist priest walked in front of the other party, the other party didn't seem to notice it at all, just poured the liquid in the bucket into the bottles and cans, the barrel should be oil and water, but it was black, not only not bright, but it smelled strange, if it was dead lard, dead duck oil, or even gutter oil, the Taoist priest would admit it, this was not uneaten in the food stalls in the previous life, but if this was dead man's oil, as soon as he thought of this, his stomach tumbled.
"Brother, do you know that the health bureau is very strict now!" Daoist Li patted him lightly on the back, but he didn't expect the other party's head to fall off along with his hat, and the headless corpse turned around, and the oil in the bucket was about to be poured on the Taoist priest!
Fortunately, although Zhou Laoshi next to him was scared to death, he still slashed it with a knife, his clothes seemed to be empty, the oil in the bucket was spilled all over the ground, and there were three more dead mice on the ground.
"Borrowing the object to transform into a shape, this spirit is quite slippery," Daoist Li also breathed a sigh of relief, Daoist I am a newly bought dress, a good Hunan cloth, two money.
"Dao Chief, this spirit was killed by me?" Zhou honestly said in disbelief.
"You're beautiful," Daoist Li rolled his eyes, and before he could explain, it was as if someone had pushed him in the back and piled himself up in the oil tank.
"Brother Sima, if you don't do it again, Dao Ye and I will soak in the oil tank!" Daoist Li shouted while struggling, but fortunately, after a while, the pressure on his back disappeared, and the Taoist priest looked back and saw that in the thickening mist, there was a transparent human figure struggling.
"See, this is the original form," Daoist Li straightened his collar, and then took out the "Azure Treasure Book......
Selling oil lang, the old tree is charmed, living in the oil mill, godless and ignorant, often imitating the behavior of the master - "Divine Ghost Hide" spirit 1327, the eighth generation of the Qingcheng faction is separately included
The Taoist priest also understood, why the oil he ate before didn't have diarrhea, except this time, because the oil that people ate before was the oil dripping from the old tree itself, no matter how it was made, it was vegetable oil, but with the use of vegetable oil, this essence has no common sense of hygiene, and I don't know where to get a batch, it may be gutter oil, it may be dead lard, it may be human oil, vomit-
The oil selling case has finally been concluded, as for whether Fu Yin believes that it is a ghost made by the ghost, and how Zhou Laoshi reports to the above, it doesn't matter what he does, he has more important things to do, that is, with the help of the Mo family's craftsmanship, to make a Fu Seal fountain pen.
Originally, this quill pen can still be used, but since the Taoist priest's cultivation has been improved, this equipment seems to have to be updated, and the manufacturing of a fountain pen, the biggest difficulty is three, one is to press the film, one is cutting, one is to polish the iridium grain, if there are welding tools, the Taoist improvised, or can get out, but the problem is that this is an era of iron plough and ox ploughing, Quyuan plough is considered high-tech, not to mention electrical appliances.
Fortunately, this is a strange and supernatural world, which can't be done with technology, and it may not be possible to use other means, and since that Sima brother has this certainty, it is not interesting to make an ordinary fountain pen, and if you want to play, you have to play big, for example, to make a magic fountain pen! )
