Chapter 16: Decision
If this morning's incident of smashing and copying is considered a small accident in Hu Lao Si's plan, and does not affect Hu Lao Si's plan, then this time we burned down the Guan Di Temple and killed the Bat Spirit, which is a complete break of Hu Lao Si's plan, because one of the protagonists of the plan is dead, but also counted the plan ah!
In this regard, Hu Laoshi had no other choice but to be shocked and initially angry. The deed was done, what else could he do? Especially against such a group of young people, he really did not dare to have a temper.
"You ah, alas …… this have told you in advance, do not fool around, to be patient, to wait for …… this is good, can be good, the old turtle spirit ran away, fled, and then want to in addition to it, it will be difficult ……" Hu Laoshi sighed, big tobacco bag smoking on.
I'm a little tired of standing, right leg footsteps and feet from the feeling of soreness. Simply walk to the brick stove in front of the child, sat against it, let the damp pants against the lower body. Smoking cigarettes also do not speak, thinking that the old bastard spirit although the ability to say quite big, but not Hu Laoshi said so suspenseful, that thing's ability to big in the big will run away, the real battle, it can not, will be a shrinking violet.
If Hu Laoshi is present today, then he will cast a spell to trap the old bastard spirit, it will not be able to run away, but also to let us die.
Chen Jin and I thought of the same thing, said: "I say Hu Laozi, you do not always grow the enemy's ambition, destroy their own prestige, okay? What's so great about that old bastard? It's just that it can run away, and it can be a shrinking turtle. Besides, didn't you say that if that old bastard dares to drill into the River God Temple, you'll be able to trap him? I dare say, as long as you trap it, we brothers will dare to beat it, and we will burn it with fire, burn it to death!"
"Yes, burn it to death, Grandpa Hu, don't say this and that here, don't you just want to tell us that this is not a good thing to do, if you want to get rid of the old bastard spirit, then you have to …… give your old man more meaning, right?" Yao Jing wryly smiled and said: "This is good to do, and so on finished the old wangbajing, we more eel fishing a few times, sold the money are to you."
The brothers and sisters all laughed, fucking Yao Jing this all say what words ah, enough damage, how he thought of it?
Hu Laosi let Yao Jing's words made his face red and thick necked, huffed and said: "Am I a person who cares so much about money? I'm doing this for you, for our whole village ……"
"Che, you old man don't pretend, this is who with who ah? No one is laughing at you." Yao Jing said uncaringly, "You forget, the last time we went to our home to exorcise the ghosts and monsters, my father to ask for a piece of talisman paper you had to charge our family more than 50 cents."
A few of us more happy, feelings because of fifty cents a talisman paper, Yao Jing heart still hold a grudge it, this grandson really stingy.
"You ……" Hu Laoshi completely speechless, how can he not understand, our young people in the end what kind of mentality, how no matter how big things, to their front, will never be able to mobilize that kind of tense atmosphere it? Said this group of young people is optimistic it, is simply in the fallacy of praise them, if they say they have no heart and no lungs, is really more appropriate.
Xue Zhigang muttered: "Okay, okay, I say a few brothers and sisters, your heart eyes are also too real, is not busy and the gang of old ladies to do up a fight, are only remembering the evil things and old ladies? Didn't we agree in advance that we don't care about that old bastard spirit?"
"That's right, I kind of understand why Grandpa Hu is so angry, ugh ……" Chang Yunliang said playfully, "We all agreed not to go to the old wangbaoshen, then we have to Grandpa Hu himself, the problem is that he fought with the old wangbaoshen himself. The problem is that he himself and the old Wang Bajing fight up is not a rival, which must be expected to provoke the old Wang Bajing and the bat Jing fight, and then Grandpa Hu on the side of the mountain to watch the tigers, reap the benefits …… to that time, the bat Jing by the old Wang Bajing dead, the old Wang Bajing let Bat Jing to get seriously injured, Grandpa Hu easily killed the old Wang Bajing! …… Hey, that fame, greatly, after looking for Grandpa Hu to exorcise the ghosts and monsters, the price, sorry, up, fame up, the price of children naturally rose, then Grandpa Hu is a wrist ah ……"
Haha, we are all amused by Chang Yunliang to the stomach are laughing pains, one by one to cover their stomachs also kept laughing, Chen Jin simply because a mouthful of smoke did not spit out, laughing forked out of breath, coughing heavily, tears are flowing out of the eyes.
Hu Laoshi almost mad, waving a cigarette bag on the bedside of the tea pot knocked a few times, out when when the crunching sound.
A few of us did not take it too seriously, anyway, it is a joke, this day the brothers destroyed the bat spirit, the mood should be better. Only that time the old bastard spirit is not a time, but let us now, so we are a little depressed, let the dog to run is a pity, so to Hu Laoshi's home before we are a little mopey.
But now think about it, we did not say that we do not deal with the old bastard spirit of it? Then what the hell are we worried about?
Since the villagers until now still have opinions about us, then sorry, you will wait to suffer the scourge of the old Wang Bajing it, my brothers and sisters, but also do not care about it, as for what you say again and again when we beg, hmmm, love who who to go ……
"Always have to get rid of it! If you don't remove the village will not be safe!" Hu Laoshi said loudly and seriously after a few of us had finally laughed enough.
"Yes, yes, only, it's too difficult ah, can't do it, so …… just don't get rid of it, haha." Chen Jin laughed and said, finished his own laughing and coughing, the tears in the corner of the eyes of the eyes of the special clear.
A few of us again a burst of laughter.
Hu Laoshi simply ignore also no longer pay attention to us, let us enjoy laughing, enjoy making fun of it, see what degree you gang of young people can make fun of.
In fact, I think Hu Laoshi is really a smart person, his heart and mirror like. As the saying goes, ginger is still old and spicy, Hu Lao Si understands that our group of young people, especially Chen Jin and I two leaders, is nothing more than fighting with the villagers, in fact, from the inside, each of us is eager to hurry up to the old wangbajing death, hate to stew the old wangbajing meat to eat.
This is obvious, otherwise, why do we in the Guandi Temple there as soon as we saw the old Wang Bajing, immediately in the rain rushed into the pit, without saying a word on the start of the fight it?
As for our group of people here fooling around and having fun, it's really caused by the kind of heartless character of young people. Besides, what's the use of worrying? Other buddies are not worried, if you are worried, that is not very no face? So everyone pretends to be indifferent to the appearance of a big grin, the results of pretending to pretend, it has become true.
Of course, I said this kind of pretend, only refers to most, and like Chen Jin this number of things, he really does not need to pretend, this kid is originally heartless.
After a while, see people Hu Laoshi also do not speak, just sit on the bed and smoke, a few of us gradually feel uninterested, also no longer blindly grinning, and even feel a little embarrassed.
Chen Jin finally said his heart, came to Hu Lao Si, reached out and touched the five gold flowers on the cooler, pulled out a to light, took a drag, slowly said to Hu Lao Si: "Hey, old man, not with you, tell me, how to take out that old wangba Jing now?"
"Yo, figured it out? To be impartial?" Hu Laoshi did not even look at Chen Jin, lowered his head and barred his tobacco pouch, said in passing.
"Talk about selfless, we are not so high consciousness, is …… hehehe, mouth greedy, want to taste this bastard into the essence, that meat is not changed flavor?" Chen Jin is full of nonsense.
Brothers are also laughing, I said: "Come on, Grandpa Hu, you old really angry it is not?"
"What am I angry about?" Hu Lao Si raised his head, full face written very angry, said: "you ah, don't pretend, know you actually in the heart is afraid, don't dare to move the old turtle spirit, so find reasons for it, otherwise, why do you still help the old turtle spirit to the bat spirit to death?"
"Put your motherfucking dog's ass in the air!" Chen Jin immediately flipped, deep inhaled a mouthful of smoke will be the cigarette head thrown to the ground, stood up with the toe of the child ruthlessly twisted down thrown to the ground half of the cigarettes, rushed to Hu Laoshi glared at the eyes and roared: "You less fucking blind grinning, who fucking when the traitors who is not a son of a bitch, the old man is afraid of? Laozi grow so big ……"
"Jinzi, come on, say less, calm down, Grandpa Hu is not joking with us?" I hurriedly interrupted Chen Jin's words, walked to the front to stop Chen Jin, pulled back a few steps, said to Hu Lao Si: "Grandpa Hu, you joke over ah, I know, just now we a few angry you, should not make fun of your old man, here I give your old man to accompany a not …… "
Hu Lao Si smiled bitterly and waved his tobacco bag, said: "line, you ah, I told you earlier, don't be impulsive don't be impulsive, alas, nowadays is that again want to get rid of that old bastard spirit, how easy it is ah, alas, that thing is the most cunning and most prudent nevertheless ……"
"But it has to enter the village, right? If it does not enter the village, why make enemies with the bat spirit?" I said.
"Of course it has to enter the village, now there is no other evil in the village, the only one, it can not give up the offerings of the village people." Hu Laoshi said as he smoked a cigarette.
Chen Jin snorted coldly and said, "Then it's over, since it wants to enter the village and leave the water, don't you have a way to trap it? This is what you said yourself, it can't be that you yourself bragged about it in the first place, and now you're clueless, right?"
"So what if it's trapped? You still can't do anything about it?" Hu Lao Si sighed helplessly and said, "Don't take that old bastard spirit lightly, I can trap it, but only use Taoist magic to trap it for a little while, during this time, if I can't harm its flesh, it will still run away."
"Then let's take advantage of that little time to get it killed." Xue Zhigang said casually.
Hu Laoshi glared at him and said, "How? Don't you know how hard the old bastard's shell is?"
Brothers are silent, I thought really, the old bastard spirit shrinking head and feet shrinking tail, really can not take it ah. I said: "Then how did you plan? Oh, after it has a fight with the bat spirit, will it not shrink its head and legs?"
"I just want it to fight with the bat spirit, then the bat spirit will definitely fight to the death to hurt the old turtle spirit." Hu Laoshi knocked on his tobacco pouch and said somewhat angrily, "As long as the old turtle spirit is injured, then it will be easy to do, after trapping it, the injured old turtle spirit will not have as much evil power as it used to have, so it can be slowly packed up, and I can use the three-marsh true fire to burn it to death."
Chen Jin interjected, "When your old man was talking big at that time, it seems like the bat spirit hadn't appeared yet, right?"
"This ……" Hu Lao Si was stunned.
A few of us also remembered, yes, when Hu Lao Si said that as long as the old Wang Bajie on the shore, into the River God Temple, he will have a method to trap the old Wang Bajie.
Hu Laoshi stunned for a while, red face a bit of a rascal like said: "I said so ah, I said it on the shore, there is a way to trap it, did not say that you can get rid of it ah ……"
"Fuck, this is not a scoundrel!" Chen Jin was exasperated and laughed.
"Grandpa Hu, your age is not small this year, right?" I asked in tears and laughter.
Hu Laoshi still did not react to me asking this question why, Chang Yunliang said, "Old cheeky skin, the older you are, the more shameless you can be, you do not see our village gang of old ladies, are almost invincible."
So our brothers and sisters laughed.
I thought to myself, "Isn't Hu Laoshi making things difficult for himself? Originally our brothers and sisters have made enough noise, do not want to make fun of you Hu Laoshi, open did not think that you fell into the mouth of the gun, alas. I am in the side of the child crying and laughing, shaking his head.
After a while, Chen Jin beckoned everyone to stop laughing, and then his face was correct, very serious and serious to Hu Lao Si said: "I said the old man, you in the end there is no way to kill that old bastard spirit? If there is, let's be happy, if there is, if there isn't, let's be happy too."
Hu Laoshi was stunned, lowered his head and thought, said, "There are two ways, just ……" Hu Laoshi himself shook his head.
"Fuck, you are quick to say ah, this way there are two, it seems that the old old bastard spirit is dead." I said anxiously.
Hu Lao Si sighed and said: "These two methods are not very sure, the first, is that we personally do it, see the opportunity, I cast the law to trap the old turtle spirit, and then several of you, especially Yin Le, use your belt to rush up and ruthlessly beat the old turtle spirit, don't let it run away, and try to delay the time it escapes, this side of the child I can be relieved, and then cast the formation to completely bind it, and then use Samadhi Fire to burn to death, and then use Samadhi Fire to burn to death. Then burn it to death with Samadhi Fire ……"
"Isn't this good? Why are you unsure again?" Chen Jin said with a frown.
"Can you trap the old turtle spirit?" Hu Laoshi looked up at Chen Jin and said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to trap it."
When I thought of how the old turtle spirit disappeared into thin air under our siege, I felt that it would be difficult to deal with, I said, "Grandpa Hu, didn't you use a spell to trap it?"
"That little bit of time won't help much at all." Old Hu shook his head.
Chang Yunliang said, "What did you say after that? Use a formation to completely trap it, can't we just use a formation from the start?"
"It takes time to cast a formation, moreover, once the formation is complete, will that old turtle spirit be stupid enough to drill itself into the formation?" Hu Lao Si sighed, "Alas, this old turtle spirit is not removed, my heart has been uneasy ah, always feel that this year, still have to die, after the river there is such a thing, the scourge ah ……"
"The second law is what?" I interrupted Hu Laoshi's long and short sigh.
"Huh?" Hu Laoshi was stunned, said with a bitter smile: "Then, is to go to the West Mountain Black Dragon Cave in the Jiao Long, in the water, the Jiao Long is the most powerful evil, if it is willing to help us, pack the old turtle spirit, it is simply as easy as a slap in the face, in front of the Jiao Long, the old turtle spirit do not even want to run, the only way is to fight to the death, the result will only be one, will die undoubtedly. "
Chen Jin clapped his hands and said: "That into, I agree with this law, well, it is not often to our village on the south embankment of the Dragon King Temple to live in it? It's an old acquaintance, and we're old friends with its father, so how can it not do such a favor? In this case, we make a little more concessions, after the old bastard spirit killed, all to the dragon to eat, damn we give up, do not eat."
"Yes, I think this is also a good idea, it's just a meal of bastard meat, isn't it? We can't catch a wolf without a child!" Yao Jing was very vocal.
"Fuck off, what can't you give up the child to catch the wolf?" I kicked him and said with a frown, "Grandpa Hu, according to the theory, this method is the best, but since you didn't do it, isn't there some difficulty?"
"Uh-huh." Hu Lao Si nodded and said, "This kind of thing, alas, honestly, I've never dealt with this kind of thing before, according to the old taiyou, it's very difficult for this thing to communicate with people, they're cold in character, they don't like to come into contact with people or any living beings, they never accept help or help anyone else, moreover, the Jiaolong is murderous and has a short-tempered temper… …I reckon it's even harder to beg it."
"Hey, how do you know it won't work if you don't try?" Yao Jing said.
Chen Jin rushed at Yao Jing and said, "Yo, so then, I personally agree that Comrade Yao Jing will represent us to negotiate with the Jiao Long, well, plenipotentiary."
The brothers immediately all raised their hands and said at the same time, "Agreed."
Yao Jing immediately waved his hand, smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm not just saying, how can I go to this matter? It's not appropriate for me to go, I mean, Grandpa Hu go, or, Yinle go ……"
The brothers raised their middle fingers at him in unison.
I said: "Grandpa Hu, or so, we first try to do it ourselves, to see if we can get rid of that old bastard spirit, you old don't be too lack of confidence, that thing and not much ability, not just can't beat it to let it run? We can not lose, can not hurt ……".
"That's right, I think so!" Chen Jin nodded in agreement.
The other buddies naturally nodded their heads in agreement, Chang Yunliang said, "Then when the action is taken, Grandpa Hu, you have to get us a few more talismans to put on our eyebrows, otherwise we can't see that old bastard spirit, won't it be for nothing?"
Hu Lao Si nodded, and shook his head, frowned and said, "I'm afraid, I'm afraid that by the time the old turtle spirit up hard, the people were injured …… or, or after, this old turtle spirit it retaliated, the village children, can be a disaster."
"Fuck!" Chen Jin impatiently said: "To be like you, the front is afraid of wolves and back is afraid of tigers, then we simply do not do anything, the old bastard spirit love to do what to do."
Although a few of us did not say anything, but the heart is also think so, Hu Laoshi is also too hesitant. In our young people's hearts, we feel that some things if you think too carefully, too worried about this and that, that nothing can be done. There is a saying: Opportunities are fleeting, and if you don't dare to take risks, you won't succeed.
Finally, Hu Laoshi raised his head, knocked clean ashes in the pot, gritted his teeth and said: "In! Just do it according to what you say!"
"Hey …… this is not right!" Chen Jin nodded with satisfaction and said, "Elder Hu, then you can see, when do we do it? Oh yeah, look for it first, where is that old bastard spirit now?"
"Where else can it be, it's just staying in the River God Temple." I said with a smile.
"Right, right, are we going now?" Xue Zhigang rubbed his fists in excitement.
"It's raining right now." Yao Jing said.
"Fuck! What does the rain have to do with us?" Chang Yunliang glared at Yao Jing.
Without saying a word, Hu Laoshi got up and walked to the offering table facing the door of the house, lit a thick incense, then rushed to the statue of the Ancestor Master and inserted it into the incense burner. Next, he picked up a piece of talisman paper in his left hand, gently shook it, recited under his breath, and then shook it again, and the talisman paper poofed up in flames. Squeeze the talisman paper in the incense turned a few times, Hu Lao Si shake out the talisman paper, right hand index finger middle finger together, fierce out front, pointing to the head of the incense, mouth muttering chanting up.
The curling smoke from the incense head instantly became straight, gradually tilted to the northeast corner.
Hu Lao Si frowned, his left hand also lost the talisman paper tightly gripped the right wrist, the right hand and the left hand at the same time slightly shaking up, as if using a lot of force, the right index finger middle finger seems to be above the pressure of something very heavy, some can not hold on to it. Then, Hu Laoshi's whole body began to tremble, his old face full of grooves began to soak out beads of sweat, dripping down his cheeks.
Several of us on the sidelines watching is confused, at first also understand Hu Laoshi this is to see which direction the old bastard spirit, and now do not know what he is doing. Last time, he wanted to find two evil things at once, did not take so much effort, right?
Strange things are quickly born, that oblique pouring to the northeast corner of the column of smoke, in the probe out about more than thirty centimeters of , suddenly straight head down, on top of the table, the smoke began to diffuse along the desktop.
Hu Laoshi finally let go of his hand, deep breath, body staggered twice, looks very tired, can not stand up steadily.
Chen Jin and I both rushed over to support him.
The smoke on the table has now returned to its normal appearance, cigarettes curling up.
Hu Laoshi was assisted by the two of us to the edge of the bed and sat down, Yao Jing and Guo hurriedly brought a fan to fan Hu Laoshi, looking at Hu Laoshi's sweaty appearance, it must be very hot ah.
Panting for a while, Hu Laoshi only opened his mouth and said: "The old bastard spirit, in the downer river, not in the River God Temple."
"Huh?" Several of us were stunned, I said, "Then it's not in the temple, what is it doing in the river?"
Hu Laoshi shook his head, "I don't know."
"Fuck, it's a waste of time." Chen Jin said.
"No." Hu Laoshi glared, frowned and said, "Tomorrow morning, let's take action, since the old bastard spirit is hiding inside the river, it must be because it bumped into you guys today, it doesn't dare to stay in the temple for the time being, if it waits and doesn't make a move, it will go back to the temple, and wait for the people to make offerings to worship it."
"Zhong!" Hearing Hu Laoshi's words, we all immediately nodded our heads.
Yao Jing, however, said in a very untimely manner, "Then what if it doesn't enter the temple tomorrow morning?"
"Then we'll wait for when it enters the temple and we'll do it!" Hu Laoshi said with a rare fierce look on his face.
We were all startled, when did Hu Laoshi become so vicious? If not for the fact that Chen Jin and I have yin and yang eyes and can see that there is nothing on Hu Laoshi's body, otherwise, we would have thought that something had possessed Hu Laoshi's body.
