Chapter Eighty-One: Seven Deaths, Soul Enshrouded

  "What's 'seven deaths and wrapped soul'?" I thought to myself, looking at Ninth Uncle's extremely shocked expression, this "seven deaths" is definitely not a good thing.

  So I asked Ninth Uncle: "Master, what is 'Seven Deaths and Wrapped Soul'? Is it very dangerous?"

  Ninth Uncle shook his head and said: "This is impossible, this is impossible.........."

  I'm so anxious to death right now, this old man is still so fond of teasing people's appetite, at this time, it's already burning with anxiety, but he's still being so pretentious.

  I hastily said to him: "Master, please don't be sentimental, what is the Seven Deaths and Wrapped Soul after all?"

  "The so-called 'Seven Deaths to Collect the Soul' technique is a method of collecting people's souls and gathering resentment. Moreover, this is the only harmful technique in the 'Three Pure Talismans'."

  What!!!!!!!

  How did I not know that the "Three Pure Talismans" had this move?! Isn't the "Three Pure Scripture" a orthodox secret book? How can it have such an evil technique?! Besides, in this world now, shouldn't only I be the one who understands the "Three Pure Talismans"? This is completely illogical!!!

  I and Yi Xin Xing were both stunned, and after Ninth Uncle remained silent for a while, he told me the origin of the 'Seven Deaths Soul Sealing' technique. So-called talismanic techniques all belong to double-edged swords, with one benefit there must be one drawback. Humans and ghosts are also like this, there are good ghosts, and there are evil people. This 'Seven Deaths Soul Sealing' technique was originally a talismanic method passed down by the ancestors to punish those extremely evil people, its difficulty is extremely high, and it is extremely cruel.

  The so-called "seven deaths" refer to seven ways of dying, but there are only six mnemonic phrases: "Leaning against a wall with one's back will surely see the King of Hell", "A clear sky with thunder will surely lose one's soul", "Falling rope and eyebrows aligned will surely return one's spirit", "Hiding a blade at midnight will surely harm one's body", "An empty house without a door will surely be filled with dead people", "Two lives intertwined will surely die without doubt".

  These six rhymes respectively represent seven kinds of strange and untimely deaths. Xie Zhipeng's death in the elevator reflected the phrase "empty house, no door, must be equipped with a dead person". The last rhyme "double birth, twin death, no doubt" was the technique used on Dong Shanshan and Zhang Yaxin. "Seven Deaths to Suppress the Soul" requires sticking seven evil star talismans on seven grass men made of mugwort, performing the ritual at midnight, which can transfer the power of the evil stars onto the grass men, transforming them into evil spirits that will kill the intended victim.

  I've heard this and I'm starting to understand. No wonder the tactics that Old Yi and I used didn't work on that big head, it turns out it wasn't a ghost after all!

  But why did this technique, which even I, the inheritor of the "Three Pure Talismans", had never heard of before, appear? So I asked Ninth Uncle: "Master, I also have the Three Pure Talismans in my mind, but why don't I know about this technique? And isn't it true that only I, your disciple, understand the talismanic arts? How can this be explained?"

  Ninth Uncle sighed and said to me, "There's no mistake, the current heir of the 'Three Pure Ones Book' should be only you. Because this technique is really too damaging to yin virtue, so when I passed on the 'Three Pure Ones Incantation' to you, I erased this page. And your question is exactly what surprised me - according to common sense, it's impossible for anyone in this era to understand such an evil method. What's going on, I'm not clear either."

  I was stunned as soon as I heard it, do you know what this means? This means that I may be facing someone who understands the "Three Pure Talismans" just like me, and he is absolutely not a good person. Who would kill seven people every year if they were a good person?

  I remembered what the Night Fox said about the person who snatched the Ta Sui skin, and also the black shadow that let the female ghost escape. Is there any connection between these two? Damn it, why did this matter become so complicated?

  Forget it, thinking so much is useless. Even if Old Yi and I put our two brains together for a year, we may not be able to figure out the reason. Now what needs to be done is how to crack that 'Seven Deaths and Wrapped Souls'. First, ensure Zhang Yaxin and Dong Shanshan's safety.

  "So I asked Ninth Uncle: 'Master, how can we break that "Seven Deaths and Wrapped Souls"?"

  Ninth Uncle said to me: "To break the 'Seven Deaths and Wrapped Souls' technique, it's actually not difficult, but you must know how to open an altar! Can you two do it?"

  What's with the altar ritual? Where am I supposed to go for that? I thought to myself, this old man only knows how to get me to draw talismans and tell ghost stories, he never taught me how to set up an altar.

  Just as I was getting angry, Old Yi beside me said to Ninth Uncle: "Senior, you're talking about the Three Purity Altar, aren't you? I understand, please go on."

  Right! I looked at Lao Yi, how could I forget this folk scientist? He is the master of yin and yang, and it's natural that he can handle this basic ritual. This is really 'just worrying about no one to teach, and a sticky rice ball falls from the sky'.

  Jiǔ shū jiàn yì xīn xīng dǒng dé zěn me kāi tán, biàn diǎn le diǎn tóu, duì wǒ liǎ shuō: "ēn, 《sān qīng qí mén》 de chuán rén guǒ rán cōng míng líng lì, bǐ wǒ zhè wàntú kě shì qiáng shàng bù shǎo, méi cuò, zhèng shì sān qīng tán. jiē xià lái wǒ yào shuō de biàn shì zhòng diǎn, nǐ liǎ tīng hǎo."

  I thought to myself, Ninth Uncle, if you don't scold me for a day, I feel uncomfortable, as if the good disciples in your eyes are all someone else's.

  But I wasn't so bored as to get entangled in such a trivial matter, and began to listen intently to Ninth Uncle's explanation of the method to break the "Seven Deaths Entombing the Soul". It turned out that although the Seven Deaths Entombing the Soul was indeed vicious, if one could break just one of them, it would backfire on its master, causing the caster to either die or lose a layer of skin.

  This method requires the hair of Zhang Yaxin and Dong Shanshan, put it into a straw man, and then you can summon that 'seven deaths and souls' straw man. After that, use urine to splash it. Urine water belongs to polluted water, and the effect of children's urine is even better. Generally, after being splashed with urine, this method can be broken.

  So that's it, I understand now. It turns out that breaking his kung fu is so simple, just use pee! And you know how hard it is to find pee? Old Yi and I are two people with such a talent for peeing. From now on, one hour and one liter of water, I don't believe we can't fill up a bucket as big as a water dispenser tonight!

  It seems like we need a venue and some props for the ritual, where can we get these things? Just now, Ninth Uncle told me that the person whose blood is on the straw man will definitely come back to seek revenge within three days.

  It's already past 3 o'clock in the morning, which means it's tomorrow morning now.

  Is this amount of time enough for us to find all those things? Alas, we have to take a look anyway. So I said to Ninth Uncle: "Thank you, Master, we know what to do now. We will definitely break that spell."

  Ninth Uncle knew that in this society, apart from me, there was actually someone else who understood the "Three Pure Talismans", and what's more, they were using it to harm people. With a heavy heart, he said to me: "Xiao Fei, you two must be extra careful, I'm afraid this matter is far from being as simple as we thought."

  After we thanked Ninth Uncle, I closed the small mirror.

  Open the folding bed, Lao Yi lies on it, and I also lie on my bed. I ask Lao Yi what is needed to open the altar. Lao Yi tells me that a bowl of glutinous rice, five coins of cinnabar, yellow chicken blood or black dog blood, and longevity incense are required. Most importantly, there must be a regular offering table.

  I was stunned as soon as I heard it, damn it, where are these things going to be put? Especially that formal offering table. Such a big table, even if it's sold now, there's no place to put it.

  The most important thing is where we two will set up our stall. My home and Lao Yi's home are out of the question, they're too small, can't even get started, and it's not convenient to move around either.

  My mind was desperately thinking of a place where we could make out without any worries.

  Suddenly, I turned my eyes and thought of a wonderful place. The warehouse of Fuzedong has an old large altar table, and there is a sack of cinnabar. The warehouse was converted from a garage, the space is big enough for us to mess around.

  How can I fool Wen Shu's old godfather?

  Thinking about it, I've got a plan. Hehe, tomorrow night, Old Yi and I will invite him out for drinks, get him drunk to the point of unconsciousness, and then we can use his warehouse as we please. That old rascal's drinking capacity is really not up to par, at least I'm confident that I can knock him out, and he won't even make it to the bathroom halfway through.

  "Old Yi, tomorrow we'll split up and you take care of the chicken blood, glutinous rice and incense, while I handle the venue, altar and cinnabar. How's that?"

  Lao Yi nodded and said no problem, then he fell asleep. Knowing how to deal with that thing, I finally felt a little settled in my heart, just wait for tomorrow.

  As I thought about it, I also fell into a deep sleep.

  The next afternoon, I called Zhang Yaxin and asked her to find a way to get one of Dong Shanshan's hairs and bring it back to me. Zhang Yaxin knew that what I wanted must be useful, so she agreed with me.

  After Lao Yi and I got up, we each went about our own business. He went to prepare the necessary items for the opening ceremony as well as that unfinished tool of his.

  I then gave Wen Shu a call and asked if he had any plans for tonight, saying that I wanted to thank him for taking care of me for so long and invite him out for drinks, asking if he was free.

  As expected, Uncle Wen agreed and did so with great enthusiasm.

  At noon, Zhang Yaxin called me and said that she had obtained Dong Shanshan's hair sample. She asked where I was and we agreed on a location to meet up. When I arrived, she was already waiting there for me.

  She took out a small paper package from her pocket and handed it to me, saying: "Cui Ge, this is Dong Shanshan's hair, I believe you will protect me."

  I smiled at her and then stretched out my hand towards her head, her eyes were surprisingly flustered, but she didn't move. I quickly plucked one of her hairs.

  She saw me just pulling her hair, and she complained while rubbing her little head. Well, it's really quite cute.

  I bid farewell to Zhang Yaxin and returned home. Since it was still afternoon, I resumed reviewing the "Three Pure Ones" book in preparation for a fierce battle tonight.

  I also don't know what the purpose of that person who understands the 'Seven Deaths and Wrapped Soul' technique is, or why he wants to harm so many people. But one thing I am certain about now is that I must stop him.

  Thinking of this, I opened my eyes, picked up the large bottle of mineral water by the bed, thought "good wine!" and then glug glug glugged it into my belly.

  To hold more pee, is it easy?
