Chapter 9: Chapter 9 Spirit
The sole of the shoe...
I covered my face, the stinging pain was still there, it seemed that some evil method was used, not to hit the flesh, but to hit the soul, the pain was increasing, the stimulation made me tremble all over, I didn't know if it was because of the pain or the anger, there was a sense of resentment in my heart "swooshing up", and black air came out of my body unconsciously, attached to the epidermis.
"Don't be impulsive."
Zhang Daoxuan appeared behind me silently, put a hand on my shoulder, and said expressionlessly: "You are no different from a dead person now, you'd better control your emotions, don't turn into a ghost because of anger, then the Daluo Jinxian will be useless and can't save you."
He seemed to be calm, but in fact the hand on my shoulder was extremely heavy. I felt like I was carrying a mountain on my back, suppressing me and unable to move. There was also a cool air rushing into my body, which seemed to have the effect of soothing my emotions. It was very magical, and I gradually calmed down, and the black air also converged.
"Your Excellency is insulting me like this in front of me. You really don't take me seriously."
Zhang Daoxuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was a trace of cold light flashing in his narrow eyes. He raised his foot and stomped lightly on the ground. It seemed that he didn't use much strength, but the moment his foot touched the ground, there was a loud "dong" sound, like ringing a bell, which made me see stars and feel an invisible air wave rolling on the ground.
However, neither Zhang Daoxuan nor Zhang Xinya had any reaction. I roughly understood that this kick was completely aimed at the dead!
"Go!"
Zhang Daoxuan suddenly shouted softly, picked up the confused me, and threw me directly at the child on the sofa.
Fortunately, my reaction speed was not bad. Before I pressed the child, I supported the sofa with both hands, and my sight naturally met the child's clear eyes.
At this moment, everything around began to blur, and the child's eyes turned into two whirlpools with terrible suction power, pulling me directly into them.
I fell into the vast darkness, not knowing where I was, but I could feel myself falling at a very fast speed. A figure flashed past me. Although it was very fast, I could still see clearly that it was the child, who smiled at me in the darkness.
The next moment, the darkness tore through, and I had entered the child's body, and saw everything around me through his eyes.
There was one more person in the room!
It was an old man wearing a black shroud and a melon-shaped hat on his head. His face was pale and gaunt, his cheekbones were prominent, and he was holding a black cloth shoe in his hand. He was hunched over and running out of the door. He seemed to be injured, staggering and limping.
There was no doubt that this was the real owner. It was this old man who had been pestering the child.
As the saying goes, enemies are particularly jealous when they meet. When I saw the old man, I immediately got furious. As long as a good man is hit in the face with a shoe sole, I can't bear it. I don't care whether he is a human or a ghost. I climbed up with the help of the sofa and rushed over.
Unfortunately, I forgot my current state.
I am in the body of a child! !
This child has not even learned to walk. The bones in his body are still very soft. How can he stand up?
This force turned over in an instant, and his buttocks arched directly to the ground. It was so crisp and painful that it felt like jumping directly from the second floor!
In the blink of an eye, the old man had already run to the door. It seemed that he knew he was no match for him and was ready to escape.
"There!"
I endured the pain and pointed to the door with my chubby little hand. However, my tongue was tied and the simple two words were not pronounced correctly. The moment they came out of my mouth, they turned into "Yiyaya" calls, with a baby voice.
Fortunately, Zhang Daoxuan understood what I meant. He raised his eyebrows and waved his arms. A yellow paper talisman flew out from his wide sleeves, like a sharp arrow. The moment it was nailed on the door, a big fireball ignited with a "boom".
The old man seemed to be extremely afraid of the fireball. He screamed, turned around and turned back. He was almost desperate. He ran wildly, and his speed was more than a little faster than before. He almost turned into a black light. I couldn't see his appearance clearly. His small body was inconvenient to move. His little arms couldn't keep up with his speed. I couldn't accurately point out his position. I watched the old man hit the window and disappeared.
Seeing me pointing randomly, Zhang Daoxuan probably guessed the situation and stopped attacking. He stepped forward and tapped the child a few times. Then I felt that there seemed to be a force in this small body that repelled me and blasted me out. At first, I was just a shadow, and then I turned into a paper man when I landed.
"Run away!"
I was so choked up that I finally could speak. I beat my chest and stamped my feet and said, "This child's body is too weak. There is no way to accurately point out his direction. Now that the old guy has run away, it will be difficult to catch him again!"
"Not necessarily."
Zhang Daoxuan was very calm and confident. He said, "Tell me what kind of thing it is?"
I thought about it and told me what I saw and felt in detail.
"That's right."
Zhang Daoxuan sighed and said, "This is not a ghost."
"Impossible, uncle? That thing ran through the window. What else could it be but a ghost?"
Zhang Xinya interrupted and said, "You once told me that there are four most common evils in the world, namely corpses, ghosts, and demons. Among them, whether it is a corpse or a demon, they are all entities. Only ghosts are between reality and illusion, and they are unpredictable and the most difficult to deal with!"
"The four evils are the most common, but it does not mean that there are only four evils in the world!"
Facing his niece, Zhang Daoxuan was obviously much more patient and explained, "The so-called evil spirits, restlessness after death, are all caused by the seven emotions and six desires, so that they are immortal, immortal, and immortal. This world is very big, and the most abundant thing is all kinds of strange things, which will always form things you can't imagine! In fact, the reason why I made such a judgment is because that thing made Wei Jingzhe tremble all over with a light blow. This is a wounded soul. Only spirits can do this in the world!"
I was confused by these words, and couldn't help asking: "Spirit? Aren't ghosts and spirits the same thing?"
"People don't understand, so they confuse ghosts and spirits."
Zhang Daoxuan said: "Ghosts are ghosts, spirits are spirits, spirits are born from ghosts, but they are higher than ghosts. In a sense, spirits... should be considered a kind of guardian angel!"
He rarely said a few more words, and after he said this, I finally understood.
Human beings are creatures that exist based on emotions, so after death, it is easy for people to refuse to enter the underworld because of concerns or obsessions. Such ghosts will become fierce ghosts or crazy ghosts in nine out of ten, but there are always some exceptions.
There is such a kind of ghost, because of its obsession, its emotions move the heaven, and finally lose its ghost nature, leaving only divinity, and guarding the person it loves from then on. This is a spirit, similar to the role of a guardian angel.
However, everything in the world is balanced. If you get something, you have to pay it back. The same is true for spirits. Although they guard the people they love, the price they pay is heavy. They will never enter reincarnation again, and neither humans, ghosts, nor gods will see them. Even if the people they guard, once they reach the age of twelve, will no longer see them. They will wait alone in the endless darkness, unable to hear the sounds of the world, and looking at the backs of their loved ones in loneliness, which is almost the same as being scattered!
"It is because the spirit has lost all its ghost nature and only has its divinity left, so it is so powerful when fighting ghosts!"
Zhang Daoxuan glanced at me and sympathized with me because the shoe print was still on my face and could not be wiped off. It had turned into a black mark, as if it was branded with an iron.
"So, we don't have to get involved in this matter at all?"
Zhang Xinya curled her lips and said, "They didn't want to harm the child at all, but to protect the child."
"I still have to ask about it, otherwise I will be worried."
Zhang Daoxuan shook his head and said, "It is too difficult to shed all ghosts and fall into darkness forever... The formation of a spirit is too difficult. There must be enough reasons to impress God. That kind of obsession... will be terrible and unimaginable. I am worried that there may be other hidden stories behind this matter!"
After speaking, Zhang Daoxuan went to the bedroom and called Zhang Wei and his wife out.
Zhang Daoxuan carefully described the appearance of the old man I saw, and then asked, "I want to know, do you know who this old man is? This is very important!"
After hearing this, Zhang Wei frowned and got up to go to the bedroom. Soon after, he came out with a photo frame, pointed to the photo in the frame and asked, "Is this the person you see?"
The person in the photo is indeed the old man, but this photo is obviously left by the old man when he was young.
After I confirmed it, I told Zhang Daoxuan directly, and Zhang Daoxuan nodded to Zhang Wei and his wife.
After hearing this, Zhang Wei slapped his thigh and sighed, "That's my father, he died a year ago!"
His wife Wei Xin's face was obviously a little ugly, and she muttered, "What's wrong with this old man? We didn't treat him badly. Why did he come back to haunt our children after his death!?"
Zhang Daoxuan stared at the couple with a gleaming gaze, his eyes were very sharp, with doubts and other things in his eyes. In short, it was very complicated, but he hid it very deeply and didn't say much. He just smiled and said, "Don't worry, just confirm that this old man is your father. I happen to have a way here, maybe it can make the old man show up, provided that he is willing to see you. This is your family matter. I think it's better for you to have a good chat with your family, in case he has any unspeakable difficulties?"
