Chapter 204 Past
I was speechless for a moment and stared at him blankly.
He noticed that I didn't seem to know anything and was not impatient, so he touched my chin.
"It seems that Uncle Chen didn't tell you anything about the sect, but that's normal. After all, he probably doesn't plan to come back..."
After muttering a few words to himself, he looked at me: "Ahem, let me introduce you to Shangguan Hong, a disciple of the Zhengyi sect. This time, I was entrusted by the leader to find Master Chen. You are his disciple, right?"
Bar?"
I nodded and responded: "I am Xu Dezhi, Taoist Master Chen's former apprentice."
"Do you know where Uncle Chen went?"
I was speechless for a moment: "Sorry, I really don't know..."
You know it's been a long time since I last saw him.
He waved his hand: "That's all, I don't have any hope either."
This is the first time I have come into contact with people from the sect that Master Chen belongs to. I am a little curious, but I feel awkward for no reason.
We were about to ask a few more questions about Daozhang Chen, when suddenly there was a loud noise from the main room next to us.
"bump!"
The door was broken open.
The lights had been restored, but Li Xiong looked unaffected and still looked disdainful.
However, the contrast between his domineering attitude and his situation was too great. There were more than a dozen swords surrounding him, and he could no longer move.
"Fellow Taoist, what are you going to do with this ghost king now? There is more than a little bit of resentment left in him. If he is let go, it might cause a catastrophe."
I hesitated and said: "He was originally the head of the Li family. This time the spirit removal was requested by his son. We originally wanted to recall him into the body... but it seems a bit difficult now. I wonder if fellow Taoists can help...
…”
Shangguan Hong glanced at me and thought for a moment.
"It's not impossible, but there is a condition."
He stared at me, which made me a little scared.
"You will have to go back to the sect with me once a month at most. I really can't find the elusive uncle, but at least I have to find someone to go back and communicate with."
I thought for a moment and finally nodded: This is not a problem, but..."
Seeing my hesitation, he asked anxiously: "But what? What conditions do you have, tell me."
"You don't want me to go back to pay off the debt for this jade plaque, do you? I'll give you money at the worst, don't take me over to work as a coolie..."
He was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud.
"That's all you have to offer? Don't worry, this time the boss just wants to see who Uncle Master Chen has taken over. He won't do anything to you."
After saying that, he whispered again: "But it looks like it might be a little unexpected."
Immediately, he turned around and said: "Fellow Taoist, you are ready to do something. I will be the enemy. I will get rid of the resentment in this thing first, and then return to the soul."
I was a little curious about what he just said, but now was not the time to ask more questions. I walked to the original position and started doing it.
He walked across from me, swept away the dust in his hand, and muttered something.
Li Xiong, who was trapped in the formation, was still struggling at first, but as time passed, his figure gradually disappeared and became transparent. In less than half an hour, he turned into a wisp of white smoke and got into the coffin.
I have to say that it is indeed much easier to do it with someone who has the same lineage of teachers. Moreover, he is probably from an orthodox background in the academy, so he has solid spiritual power and works steadily without making any mistakes.
When everything was over, it was already dark.
Shangguan Hong and I exchanged contact information and left.
To be honest, when I saw a man who was dressed and dressed like a Taoist priest and took out his mobile phone from his body, the picture was a bit magical and realist.
After he left, I looked at Coffin Chun in the main room and hesitated for a while.
I'm the only one in this place now.
There is also a remnant soul.
I don't think Li Shun will tell me what I want to know, but what about Li Xiong?
After thinking about it, I did not immediately notify Li Shun and the others to return to the main house.
I took out an incense stick from the backpack I brought with me.
A thin line of smoke rose up and went straight to the ceiling.
There is no wind around.
I found a few unbroken tributes in front of the coffin, put them back, and added a dozen paper money myself.
While burning the paper money, I whispered: "Master Li, I know you may have unresolved resentments, but it is true that there is a separation between yin and yang. I cannot let you continue to harm the world. If I am sensible, I have no choice but to do it.
"
"Although it's hard to say it, I have something to ask of you. If you don't mind it, I can help you fulfill a wish in exchange for the news I want to know."
After he finished speaking, nothing appeared in front of him.
I didn't give up and continued to wait.
When the incense was halfway burning, suddenly, the direction of the smoke changed.
Although there was still no wind, it began to move in the direction of the coffin, and a looming smoke gradually outlined a figure.
Li Xiong appeared above the coffin wearing his usual coat.
His face was solemn, but looming.
It seems that the suppression just now was too traumatizing for him. If he had lit the incense candle later, he might have lost his mind.
He waited for a while before speaking: "Go ahead."
"Do you know what happened to our Xu family? Or do you know how the Li family seized the Dragon Vein?"
He was silent for a while, as if thinking about something, and then replied: "The Xu family... yes, you are from the Xu family. I thought the prophecy passed down from generation to generation was false, but it seems to have come true.
Already."
He spoke so vaguely that I couldn’t understand it for a moment: “What are you talking about?”
His expression became relieved and he began to talk.
The Li family's dragon veins were obtained a hundred or two hundred years ago. At that time, they saved a world-famous "Feng Shui master" by chance.
The "Feng Shui Master" warned them at that time that in more than two hundred years, a descendant of his family would appear, and when he came into contact with the Li family, it would be the time when the dragon veins transposed.
At that time, the people of the Li family can no longer search for the dragon vein, and must rely on the help of that descendant to survive the first year of losing the dragon vein. Otherwise, in that generation, the Li family will definitely be extinct.
I was a little confused after hearing this. What kind of ancestor is this? He even found something for me to do.
Moreover, I had never heard of these things from my father at all, and it was all a mistake that I even took this path.
But one thing really cleared up my doubts.
Although my family is in the coffin business, every generation will not die young.
Thinking about it now, our Xu family's ancestors probably killed Feng Shui masters because they found dragon veins for the Li family, which put our family's bloodline in jeopardy.
"These are all the things I know, so is it true what you said about helping me fulfill a wish?"
I was brought back to reality by Li Xiong's voice and looked at him.
