Chapter 360: The Old Taoist’s Means
The haunted mine was some distance away from the village, and the village headman patiently told Meng Fan and Mor Li about the haunting.
It turns out that the village is rich in minerals, the mayor saw the way to get rich, led the villagers to set up a mining company, formalities and other things are complete, the villagers also earned some money at the beginning, but then something happened!
One day, the villagers went down the hole to dig as usual, accidentally dug out a coffin in the mine, but after opening it was found to be empty, in order not to delay the progress of digging, the coffin was burned on the spot, burned, only to find that there is a coffin under the coffin, the following coffin's lid has been burned, is out of the cold air.
The villagers feel that things are a little strange, they took a mining lamp to the coffin below the light, the results of this light does not matter, the horror of things happened, suddenly from the coffin below a black smoke, black smoke with the living like, instantly drilled into a villager's nostrils, the villagers immediately lost their minds, take the shovel began to kill, as if the incident suddenly, the other villagers have nothing to prepare, on the spot was killed by him! The other villagers had no defense and were killed by him on the spot!
The other villagers were scared, scrambling to escape, and the evil villagers chased after them!
In broad daylight, thought to chase to the outside will be all right, but unexpectedly the evil villagers even drilled into the excavator, all around the collision and digging, fortunately only damaged some vehicles and mineral equipment, did not make a human life again.
The evil villagers finished, they drilled into the mine hole disappeared.
But the villagers who dug the mine got scared and didn't dare to work in the mine, and the mine stopped working.
"This time we have gathered fifty thousand dollars for the purpose of catching ghosts." The village headman parked his car in a flat area in front of a hillside and said, "Here it is."
After getting out of the car, Meng Fan scanned the surroundings, which were piled with gray ores, with a few scrapped vehicles and mining equipment discarded to the side, looking a bit depressed.
Afterward, he and Mori Li followed the village headman forward a little ways to a mining cave.
There was a circle of villagers gathered in front of the mine hole, talking about something.
"That master has set up a magic altar here, and will cast a spell to lure the ghosts in a little while." The village chief pointed at the crowd and said, "Whether or not you guys can get the money depends on the real skill."
"Master, let's go take a look." Someone was stealing business, and under the banner of Tiger Yang Guan, Mori Li became a little displeased and pulled Meng Fan towards the crowd, squeezing in to see an old white-haired Taoist priest in a Taoist robe, setting up the altar.
The altar was almost ready, with fruits and tributes on it, peach wood swords, talismans, three clear bells and other magic weapons, incense and candles, smoke and fire, it looked quite intimidating.
"What do you do?" The white-haired old Taoist priest was busy, when he suddenly saw Meng Fan in his Taoist robes, his tone became a bit unkind.
"Playing soy sauce." Meng Fan bristled, "By the way, I'm helping Master Mor catch a ghost."
"Who is Master Mor?" The white-haired old Taoist priest froze and scanned the crowd, but he didn't see anyone who looked like a master.
"I am Master Mor." Mor Li holding the fire departure sword, the fury minded to stand forward, delicate and beautiful appearance, attracted the villagers to gaze over.
"You …… a little girl, fooling around!" That old man said with a gloomy face, "That ghost has gotten people killed, very fierce, later the ghost out, I can not protect you."
"Who needs your protection!" Mori Li nuzzled his mouth and looked his sight towards the mine.
"Hey, there are more and more crooks now, even little girls are coming out to catch ghosts and cheat people." That old Taoist sighed and wiped the apple on the Dharma altar, a heartbreaking expression came on his face, "The Taoist Sect is declining, it's all because of you people!"
This sigh of the old Taoist priest drew the villagers to look at Meng Fan and Mori and point, subconsciously treating the two of them as crooks.
"These two don't look like ghost catchers!"
"It looks like they're here to scam money, what kind of ghosts can they catch at such a young age?"
"This time they're cheating in the wrong place, someone has already died, someone will really die!"
In the midst of the villagers' chatter, the village chief squeezed in, waved his hand at the villagers, signaling everyone to be quiet, and then said to the old Taoist priest, "Master Lu, you have to hurry up, but people have said that it can be done in ten minutes."
In fact, the village chief is very dissatisfied with this old Taoist priest, yesterday tossed a day also did not catch the ghost, said that the ghost is very powerful, unusual means can not handle, today set up an altar, said that the 50,000 yuan is not enough, want to sit on the ground.
"Ten minutes?!"
Hearing this, all the villagers were a bit surprised, what can be done in ten minutes? The old Taoist priest set up an altar, have prepared for several hours, yesterday recited a day of incantation to the mine cave did not draw out the ghost, you a little girl, can have how high the Taoist skill?
"Well, ten minutes." Mori Li smiled and scanned the crowd with a hint of Meng Fan's demeanor, "There's nothing wrong with ten minutes."
After saying that, he looked at the old Taoist priest and smiled, "This master, you can handle it in a few minutes?"
That old Taoist monk froze, saw that the crowd was looking at him, gritted his teeth, and opened his mouth, "The poor Taoist is an elder of the Tiger Yang Guan, his Taoist skills are heavenly, five minutes will do!"
"…… Elder of Tiger Yang Guan?" Mori Li and Meng Fan both felt a bit amused, but didn't point it out, wanting to see how this old Taoist would actually end up.
"Alright then, you start first, five minutes oh." Stranger took two steps backward and stood next to Meng Fan, putting on a look of watching the fun.
That old Taoist boasted, but his expression was not flustered, he looked confident, in fact, he appeared to have recited a day's incantation last night, but in fact, he did nothing, he just wanted to fool this group of villagers so that he could raise the price of catching the ghosts a little higher.
But now that there was a competitor, raising the price was naturally impossible.
"Let's show you the means of the poor Taoist!"
The old Taoist monk took the peach wood sword and began to choke and recite incantations, the Taoist robe on his body was windless, his beard and hair flew, and his momentum was very strong, causing a chorus of hoots and hollers.
Meng Fan swept a glance and whispered to Mori, "Not exactly a liar, the realm is one level higher than you, the second level of Spirit Condensation."
"Wow." Mor Li sniffed, his small hand clutched the Fire Li Sword, "I definitely won't lose to him."
The old Taoist priest glanced at Mor Li and Meng Fan with a slight sneer, and read a section of the incantation out loud ……
"The Elder Lord Taishang taught me to kill ghosts, and with me the divine formula. Call on the Jade Maiden above and take in the ominous. Climb the mountain and crack the stone, wear the seal. Wearing the Huagai on my head, tiptoeing on the Kui Gang, supporting the Six Armors on my left, and guarding the Six Dings on my right. In front of him is the Yellow God, and behind him is the Yuezhang. The Divine Master kills and destroys without avoiding the strong and powerful. He kills the evil spirits first and beheads the night light later. What god will not be ambushed, what ghost will dare to be, haste is like a law!"
The ordinary ghost killing incantation was recited by the old Taoist priest in a staccato, reverberating manner, the voice wrapped in a true qi, straight into the mine, buzzing!
"This Elder Lu of the Huyang Temple is really powerful!"
"Looks like a Taoist master!"
"There's definitely no problem this time!"
Before the ghost was even seen, the villagers were shocked by the old Taoist monk's methods, and a look of awe appeared on their faces, and when they looked at Meng Fan and Mori Li again, their gazes were even more contemptuous.
"Boom!"
After reciting the Taoist incantation, the old Taoist priest ignited a few more yellowish talismans and struck them out towards the mine, and immediately a ball of fire emerged from within the mine, rumbling with a horrifying sound!
"Everyone pay attention to safety, all back off, that ghost is being forced by the poor Taoist and will be coming out soon!"
The old Taoist twirled his beard, waved his hand at the rushing villagers, then pinched a finger at the Dharma altar, the burning incense on the Dharma altar suddenly had a great deal of smoke and rose straight up, then coalesced into a strand of gray smoke that was thick and thin as a thumb and drifted towards the cave ……
