Chapter 12 Shinto and Onii-Do

Shi Xuan laughed dumbly: "I just said that my cultivation is shallow and I can't help your child's soul reincarnate or return to life through a corpse. I just want to solve the problem of having to eat blood in the future because of absorbing Yin Qi for cultivation. There is still a way." Fang said in disbelief: "Master, is it true? Isn't it said that if you use Yin Qi to cultivate and become highly cultivated in the future, you must eat people?" "Yes, so you can just practice without Yin Qi." Shi Xuan smiled and shook his head. "But, Master Shi, how can you maintain your body without Yin Qi? Could it be, could it be that you mean?" Fang seemed to have realized something. "Well, you just need someone to sacrifice to you, and then you can use incense and vows to maintain it." Although Shi Xuan is a relatively indifferent person, he also has a bit of compassion. Fang was a little surprised and stuttered: "Then, who is willing to sacrifice to us?" After that, she stared at Shi Xuan with a pair of beautiful eyes, knowing that since Shi Xuan said so, the candidate must have been thought of. Shi Xuan pointed at Xu Tianqi and said, "My senior brother has a big family and a big business. He won face because of you this time, so he will naturally repay you. He will instruct people to sacrifice to you. Well, three sacrifices a year should be enough."

"But, but, what if this young master has an accident, or dies of old age, or is out and cannot be monitored, and no one comes to sacrifice?" Fang was still cautious about such an important matter.

Shi Xuan pondered for a moment and said, "I will tell him to find a manager to manage this matter. The money for the sacrifice will be paid to the temple in ten-year installments. By the way, why not build a temple to worship you directly and let the Xu family manage the temple behind the scenes? Then I will give you the horoscopes of the manager and the monk or Taoist priest who manages the temple. I will also give you a few talismans. At that time, if you forget, you can remind them in your dreams. In fact, if you arrange it this way, there should be many people who come to sacrifice and make wishes to you. Even if those people forget, you can still enjoy the incense and worship, so don't worry." Fang stood up and bowed down: "I will never forget the kindness of the Taoist priest. If you have any mission in the future, I will go through fire and water." Shi Xuan waved his hands twice and said, "Don't thank me first, and don't make a decision first. I still have to tell you the restrictions of the sacrifice. Sacrifice The time to maintain the body will not exceed a hundred years, and this is the case of many people offering sacrifices. The private sacrifices you will enjoy in the future may only maintain your body for twenty years. Unless you can obtain the true method of practicing directly with the power of incense and vows, and there are a large number of people offering sacrifices to you, then you can change from a ghost to a god, break away from the hundred-year limit, and start practicing the way of the gods. If you can be seen in the way of the gods in the future, and there are many believers, you will have the opportunity to achieve the longevity. "Shi Xuan paused and continued: "However, if you keep practicing with Yin Qi and have enough blood and food to satisfy, as long as you break through the realm, you can continue to extend the years of existence, and finally have the opportunity to achieve the ghost way of the soul and the longevity, but it will be much more difficult than normal practice. "Seeing Fang standing there thoughtfully, knowing that she was weighing the pros and cons, Shi Xuan did not urge her. After about half an incense stick of time, Fang bowed to Shi Xuan again. Shi Xuan said, "Have you thought it through?" Fang said firmly, "I am willing to follow the path of the gods. Although I don't have a true method now, I can live a peaceful life for 10 to 20 years with someone offering sacrifices. I think I can find some simple methods to try these days. Even if I can't find them, I don't have a true method for the path of the ghosts. If I really absorb Yin Qi and practice instinctively, I may not be able to maintain my body before reaching the realm, not to mention that I will have resistance to eating blood in the future." Shi Xuan smiled and said, "In this case, If I find the way to practice Shinto later, I will definitely teach you. No, don't do the big ceremony yet. It won't be too late to do it when you really find it. " Fang was stopped but didn't insist. She sat down again. At this time, she was in a good mood and said with a smile: "I wonder if the master has any other instructions?" Shi Xuan shook his head and said: "I don't have any instructions, but since I want to offer sacrifices to you, I have to wake up the master and talk to him in person. After all, he will make arrangements in the future. I will have to set off to travel soon. " Seeing Fang nodded, Shi Xuan stood up and walked to Xu Tianqi, squatted down and pinched his philtrum, and secretly transported a stream of internal energy into him. With these two kinds of help, Xu Tianqi woke up after a while, opened his eyes and looked at Shi Xuan in front of him, and asked in a confused manner: "Junior Brother Shi, what's the matter?"

Just after asking, the previous memory came back to his mind, and he stood up suddenly, his face pale, and asked Shi Xuan in a trembling voice: "Junior Brother Shi, that, that, that female, female ghost, have you solved it?" At the same time, looking around, he happened to see Fang, who was dignified and dressed like a woman, and couldn't help but be stunned: "Junior Brother, who is this lady, but the helper you asked."

Shi Xuan laughed and said: "Junior Brother Xu, this is Madam Fang, the hostess of this house. You just suffered a loss at her hands. How come you don't recognize her in a blink of an eye."

Hearing this, Xu Tianqi's head was sweating coldly, and his face was already pale. At this time, Fang stood up and saluted Xu Tianqi. Xu Tianqi was so scared that he stepped back three steps, and then he heard Fang say: "Mr. Xu, I have offended you before, I hope you can forgive me."

Seeing the female ghost being so polite, Xu Tianqi's fear was greatly relieved. He turned his head to look at Shi Xuan, and seeing Shi Xuan smiling at him, he felt relieved. He made a gesture with his hands and said, "What's wrong with Madam Fang? We were the first to trespass into your house."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the two little brothers and sisters behind Fang making faces at him. The faces were only a plate, and the facial features were gone. He was so scared that he almost fainted again.

Seeing this, Fang turned around and taught the two children a lesson. Shi Xuan told Xu Tianqi about the sacrifice just now. Xu Tianqi was amazed. At the same time, because these three ghosts had something to ask of him, his fear was basically reduced. Once the fear was gone, curiosity came. While looking at Fang's mother and son, trying to see the difference, he asked Shi Xuan about ghosts.

After the discussion, Xu Tianqi patted his chest and assured Fang: "Don't worry, Madam Fang, the sacrifice is in my hands. As long as I am here, the sacrifice will not be interrupted." Fang was naturally very grateful, and even asked Delin and Hanling to kowtow three times to Shi Xuan and Xu Tianqi. After the two and the ghost finished their business, they began to chat. Although Fang was a lady from a wealthy family, she had not been able to communicate with others for so many years, so she seemed quite talkative at this time. Xu Tianqi and Shi Xuan were very curious about ghosts, asking questions and occasionally telling Fang about the changes outside, so before they knew it, it was the beginning of the morning. Fang heard the sound of the night watch outside, and seeing that it was getting late, she said to Shi Xuan and Xu Tianqi: "My two benefactors, it is the beginning of the morning now. Although I can stay for another half an hour, it seems that you two still have some things to deal with, so it is inconvenient for me to accompany you." At the end, she signaled Xia Wenhui and the others with her eyes and smiled secretly. Xu Tianqi suddenly realized, "Yes, we have to throw these three guys out of the house, otherwise it will be a wasted trip." Shi Xuan laughed and said, "What if they wake up and don't recognize you? You can just say that you were also scared and thrown out, but you woke up a little earlier and ran back in." Xu Tianqi thought about it and felt that it was right. He couldn't help cursing, "This treacherous guy, no wonder he wanted to bet with me. What should I do now? There are no other witnesses?" Shi Xuan pointed at Meng Yuqiong and said, "First, save your dream lover and let her be a witness." "But she can't prove that we were not scared." Xu Tianqi said helplessly. "Haha, the purpose of your bet is just to save face in front of her. Now you wake her up, which is a life-saving grace. If you don't wake her up, she might be eaten by a ghost! What do you think is more important, saving her life or showing off a little in front of her?" Shi Xuan said unhappily. "Ah, eaten by a ghost?" Xu Tianqi was a little confused. Shi Xuan pointed at Fang and said, "Anyway, she is unconscious, and we don't know whether this ghost is good or evil."

Pah, Xu Tianqi clapped his hands, "What a good idea!" He said excitedly.

When Fang saw that she had nothing to do, she took the two children and bowed, and then suddenly disappeared, which made Xu Tianqi's eyes pop out. After a long while, he murmured to Shi Xuan, "Brother Shi, I wish I had this light skill."

"This is not light skill, it's just an illusion. You didn't study Taoism well back then, and now you know you've suffered a loss."

"Haha, I can't concentrate on visualization. After I go back this time, I have to try it again. Taoism is so powerful. Okay, okay, let's deal with things here first and then talk."

The two dragged Xia Wenhui and the other two out of the house, and then threw them into a dead end alley nearby. Shi Xuan said to Xu Tianqi: "The acupuncture points I pressed will probably be unblocked in an hour. There are often many drunkards and beggars staying overnight here. Although there is no one here now, there shouldn't be much danger. At most, their money and property will be lost."

Xu Tianqi smiled and said: "They were scared by ghosts and thrown here. It's none of our business." He took two steps back and suddenly turned around, looking at Xia Wenhui and the other two with an uncertain expression on his face.

Shi Xuan didn't know what Xu Tianqi was up to, so he didn't say anything and just watched silently from the side.

After a while, Xu Tianqi made up his mind, squatted down, pressed his palms on the Dantian of the sword and the double killer, then stood up and said to Shi Xuan: "These two people are full of evil, I just crippled their martial arts, I am very kind to them, so they don't have to run around for the Xia family in the second half of their lives, and enjoy their old age." Shi Xuan thought that the second half was the reason why you took action, and thought for a while and said: "Ghosts don't seem to cripple people's martial arts, aren't you afraid of revenge from the Xia family?" Xu Tianqi said solemnly: "Anyway, no one can be sure that it was not the work of ghosts, but they are just two outer sect elders. The Xia family will not tear their faces apart. Although there are not many such quasi-first-class masters in the Xia family, there will not be too few. In addition, hehe, everyone has to do business together. So, you see, I didn't touch Xia Wenhui. As for private revenge, I will stay at home during this period of time. I believe that my family will not treat me badly. I will go out after my martial arts are improved. By then, even if I can't beat them, I can still run away."
