I am a Big Villain

185. The love between man and ghost is not over yet

"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you..."

"Xiao Chu, make a wish quickly. After today, you will be eight years old."

"who?"

"Bang——"

"Xiao Chu, run quickly and find your uncle. Don't look back."

"ah--"

Heavy ink shadows, screams, the sound of flesh and blood being cut open, the sound of porcelain ornaments being smashed to the ground and walls, a little boy tightly holding the jade pendant hanging on his chest, running forward with his head buried in tears. .

The long street used to be lively at this time, but on this day, every door was closed, and he could only hear his own breathing, and the bottomless black abyss on the other side of the street.

The little boy remembered his mother's warning, never look back.

"Ah Chu, I have taught you everything I can. From today on, you can go down the mountain."

In a slightly dilapidated Taoist temple, an old man with white hair and a childish face sat on a futon, closing his eyes and concentrating. Although he was talking, he did not pay any attention to the young man not far away.

"Uncle Master."

The young man was thin and tall, wearing a Taoist robe that was slightly ill-fitting. His eyebrows were handsome and full of divine light. His waterfall-like long hair had not been trimmed for who knows how long. It was only fixed into a bun on top of his head with a wooden hairpin. .

She was born with a beautiful face, which gave her face an air of coquettishness.

Yan Chu was half-kneeling on the ground, with a bit of inexplicable confusion in his deep eyes.

"Ah Chu, you have to remember that people are good and bad, and ghosts are also good and evil. A peck or a drink in this world is not predetermined."

The old Taoist priest whom he called uncle opened his eyes, looked at his expression at this time, and sighed slightly: "That's all, you go down the mountain."

At the beginning, his senior brothers and sisters sent him a warning that the sect should not spread the news in a crisis situation. Unfortunately, when he arrived, his senior brother's house was already littered with corpses. He could only rely on the remaining traces to determine that something evil was at work.

He arrived too late and could not find any trace of the evil ghost.

Their lineage can be traced back to the sect of Li Chunfeng, the great master of Xuanmen. Unfortunately, Xuanmen declined. When it came to his generation, including his senior brothers and sisters, there were only three descendants in total.

The three brothers and sisters were all orphans, and they had a close relationship since childhood. However, the old man was obsessed with metaphysics, while his brothers and sisters fell in love with each other as they grew up, and gradually came up with the idea of ​​​​living an ordinary life.

Xuanmen connects yin and yang, and knows the Eight Diagrams. Because of the secrets of heaven, people in Xuanmen usually have five disadvantages and three deficiencies, and they always have one of them.

In order to get rid of the sanctions of heaven, the senior brothers and sisters voluntarily gave up the skills they had learned over the past twenty years and willingly entered the secular world, got married and had children.

The old Taoist couldn't understand what his senior brother and junior sister were thinking, but he wouldn't stop them from doing so. His senior brother and junior sister were more talented than him, so the old Taoist could only feel sorry for Xuanmen because they lost two more successors.

It's just that although the senior brothers have not been in contact for many years, the veteran will not feel that the senior brother and junior sister have forgotten all their abilities after entering the secular world. Even if they don't use their all-powerful methods on weekdays for fear of being contaminated by cause and effect, there is no reason to do so in a life-and-death crisis. At all times, they don’t use all their abilities.

In particular, the master gave the three brothers and sisters some life-saving treasures before he died. It was unreasonable that in the end, except for the young Yan Chu, no one escaped, and their death was so miserable.

By the time the old Taoist found Yan Chu, his nephew, he had been wandering for dozens of days, making a living by picking up leftovers from trash cans. His body was covered in scars, and he didn’t know what had happened to him in the past ten days. What happened.

The old Taoist only knows that this nephew seems to have grown up overnight, but his temper has become paranoid and cold, and he hates all ghosts.

Although he hid it well at that time, he was only an eight-year-old child after all. The old man saw it and felt worried in his heart.

Originally out of his own heart, he was not willing to teach this child to learn their sect's Taoist techniques, but this child's talent was unheard of.

Their lineage has long been lonely. In him, the old Taoist can see the legacy of Master Chunfeng. Perhaps their lineage will regain its glory in this child.

But everything has its pros and cons, and it is possible that this child will get lost in hatred and become a powerful enemy of Xuanmen.

In the end, selfishness and feelings for this nephew prevailed. The old Taoist took him back to the Taoist temple and did not let him perform the apprenticeship ceremony. He just accepted him as a disciple on behalf of his senior brother who was killed by a powerful ghost and taught him Xuanmen techniques. .

In the blink of an eye, fourteen years have passed.

During these years, the old Taoist would always go down the mountain every year to look for traces of the evil ghost. Unfortunately, he never gained anything. He also encountered an enemy he had made when he was young and vigorous, and was seriously injured.

When the old Taoist was young, his master once said that he would have two catastrophes of life and death in his life. If he could not survive it, there would be one less person like him in the world. The old Taoist guessed that one of the catastrophes should be here. Something happened.

In the days to come, he would have to face life and death, and Yan Chu had already learned a lesson and it was time to go down the mountain.

"This whip is your mother's relic and a treasure of our sect. From now on, it will be yours."

The old Taoist took out a rope from behind, which was the whip in his mouth.

The handle of the French whip is made of wood and is carved with a snake-head pattern. The whip is made of mulberry and looks like a real snake.

The head of the snake is painted with vermilion lacquer and engraved with the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams. Looking inside from the mouth of the snake, you can faintly see a human head held in the mouth of the snake, which is quite terrifying.

However, such a seemingly evil whip is indeed a Taoist treasure, capable of whipping demons and getting rid of evil spirits.

In the catastrophe in China decades ago, Taoism and Buddhism suffered countless casualties. Xuanmen also began to decline from that time. The valuable magical artifacts left by our ancestors were wantonly damaged in those ten years and their inheritance was broken. Now the sect There are very few magic weapons left in the hands of each faction.

The old Taoist sighed. The three magical weapons that his sect had preserved were his Gangtian Ruler, the Bagua Luo Yi in the hands of his senior brother, and the other one he had in his hand right now. Magic whip.

At the scene where the accident happened to the senior brother and junior sister, Bagua Luo Yi had already been broken into pieces, and the demon-killing whip was also broken into several pieces.

Many of the Five Elements Bagua on the clothes have been lost and cannot be repaired by experienced experts. The damage to this demon-killing whip is relatively minor, and it is possible to repair it. However, in the past ten years, he has found many treasures of heaven and earth, and he has only been able to find them. It is only 50% repaired.

But even so, ordinary evil spirits would not dare to approach his nephew.

He has taught what should be taught and advised what should be persuaded. Where he goes from here depends entirely on his own destiny.

After saying that, the old Taoist closed his eyes. He handed over this apprentice, and the cause and effect has been established. If something he doesn't want to see happens in the future, I'm afraid he will be the only one who understands the cause and effect.

Yan Chu took the demon-killing whip and kowtowed three times, then picked up the luggage that had been prepared and turned around to walk outside the Taoist temple.

"Why--"

The old Taoist let out a long sigh. He didn't know whether it was right or wrong to teach this child Xuanmen magic because of his selfish motives.

I really hope that day doesn’t happen.

"Look, that man is so handsome, but what kind of clothes is he wearing? Is it a costume?"

"I don't know. We don't have any crew filming here. Is it cosplay? How about we ask for his Weibo account? With his appearance, he will become a big star sooner or later."

Yan Chu went down the mountain wearing the Taoist robe, and got on the long-distance bus under the strange eyes of others, and arrived at Nanshi, the place where he was originally born.

He knew that his current outfit was a bit out of place, but for the time being, he didn't have any money left to change his outfit.

For the little girls who were looking at him and whispering, he could only pretend that he didn't hear what they were saying.

The original person's parents died at the hands of evil spirits, and the death situation was extremely horrific. Even if some capable people from the National Security Bureau noticed this and suppressed the news about this matter, the nearby neighbors would not have seen that scene. Young Master, the old house of the Yan family, No. 47 Huaifang Road, has become a ghost house among others.

Many people think that the young couple in this family died so miserably that they will turn into ghosts and stay in the house. There are even rumors that the couple is looking for a scapegoat. Anyone who dares to live in will be haunted by the ghosts of the couple. .

Only those who truly understand this know that this house is cleaner than any other place because ordinary ghosts dare not approach it because of the residual aura of evil spirits.

As for the souls of Yan Chu's parents, the old Taoist once tried to invite them, but there was no trace of their couple in the underworld. It is more likely that they were swallowed by evil ghosts and disappeared between heaven and earth.

When a ghost eats a ghost, especially if it eats the souls of two Taoist priests who have some cultivation, the ability of that fierce ghost will make a qualitative leap. It's no wonder that the old Taoist has been searching for so many years and can't find any trace of that fierce ghost.

But as the souls that were eaten, Yan's father and Yan's mother were truly unable to enter reincarnation and were completely annihilated.

Yan Chu looked at the abandoned house. Due to its age and disrepair, vines had already climbed all over the walls, and the gaps between the eaves and stone steps were covered with moss.

In the past ten years, high-rise buildings have been built nearby, but this street has not been able to wait for demolition because of the existence of this ghost house.

Most of the people living on this street now are elderly people. When they saw Yan Chu, a strange young man, stopping in front of the ghost house, they kindly gave Yan Chu a few words of advice.

"Hunter, please go back. Many masters have been here, but they have not been able to subdue the two ghosts inside."

Yan Chu was wearing a Taoist robe, and those superstitious old men and women thought he was someone who heard about the reputation of the ghost house and wanted to get rid of ghosts. There have been many such masters over the years, but all of them came out in disgrace and never came back. Pass.

It is precisely because of this that the reputation of the haunted house has become so popular.

Yan Chu knew in his heart that this was a formation set up by his uncle to protect the home where he grew up before he grew up.

"Those masters don't even know that the child of this family is missing. The couple is still waiting for their son. How could they be willing to leave."

An old man sighed. The couple died in such a miserable way, but they just didn't know where the eight-year-old child had gone and whether he was still safe.

They are all parents, so they can naturally understand the thoughts of the two ghosts in this haunted house. Although they cannot dismantle the haunted house because of its existence, but comparing their feelings, there is nothing to complain about.

Especially after getting older, many of the old neighbors are looking forward to the day when the child comes back. The resentment of the two evil ghosts will dissipate, and their area will resume its former liveliness. .

Yan Chu nodded at the old people, then picked up his package and left.

"Do you think that kid looks familiar?"

After Yan Chu left, the few people who were enjoying the shade outside the yard, and the old man who had just advised him suddenly spoke.

"It's a bit familiar, but I don't know where I've seen him before."

This sentence drifted in the wind, just an interlude, and was quickly forgotten by several old people.
