Wang Gui'e seemed to be trying to shout, but her voice was drowned in the wind, and her face, too, became unusually frightened.
"Iron Mouth and Gold Teeth, at the command, Wang Gui'e will return quickly!" Uncle Te held the token and knocked violently on the table with a deafening "bang"!
Wang Gui'e's figure lurched, but did not come back, and soon continued to disappear far away, and within a few breaths, Wang Gui'e's body finally disappeared into the water waves.
"Snap!"
A light sound, on the bill, incense burner, the yellow incense that was curling smoke suddenly broke, the piece of paper with Wang Gui'e's name and birth date written on it, also suddenly cracked, and was about to split into two pieces!
Uncle Te's body swayed, and his face turned pale.
"Uncle Te!"
I hurriedly stepped forward and pressed the paper with my left hand to prevent it from splitting into two pieces, and at the same time, my right hand stretched out three fingers, urgently pinched the "Iron Fork Seal", and muttered the Iron Mouth Order!
The wind gradually stopped, the black clouds in the sky also slowly dissipated, the river no longer rolled, and everything returned to calm.
Only then did Uncle Te slowly stand still, staring at the river, saying, "Someone is really up to something, this counterpart is not small! Moreover, if my expectation is correct, the antagonist must have Wang Gui'e's corpse in his hands, and that is why he was able to snatch Wang Gui'e's soul from my Iron Mouth Order. Zhengzi, what was that you just said about the Different Five Elements Water Hall?"
"Looking at Wang Gui'e's behavior, I shouldn't be wrong." I said worriedly, "The Different Five Elements, I was told about it by my righteous brother, and the Fifth Uncle Hongren had mentioned it before, and they said that this Different Five Elements is the most powerful cult in the world, nowadays. It can be compared to the Palace of the Blood Golden Crow of yesteryear."
"So powerful?" Uncle Te was taken aback and said, "How come I haven't heard of it in all the time I've been traveling the world?"
I said, "Before, the Different Five Elements was jealous of Righteous Brother's fame and was afraid that the Chen Family would get rid of it, so it had been operating carefully, hiding its head, not daring to show its voice in front of the world. Waiting until the righteous brother as well as the experts of the Ma Yi Chen family disappeared into thin air, only then did the Different Five Bank slowly test the waters, extending its tentacles to all corners of the art world, especially recently, the Different Five Bank has developed extremely rapidly, and even extended its power to our place, the evil disciples and demons from the earth hall, even ran to the Chen family village to cause trouble, and it was because of this that the fifth uncle, Hong Ren, was injured, and it was because of this that I met with the righteous brother. "
"There is actually such a thing." Uncle Te mused, "It seems that I am really old and my ears are not smart anymore. The Water Hall and Earth Hall you mentioned, are they all halls under the Different Five Elements?"
I read my head and said, "Different Five Elements, as the name suggests, is a different kind of Five Elements forces, as far as I know, they are in accordance with the Five Elements subordinate five halls, respectively, gold, wood, water, fire, earth, each hall has a head and deputy head, there are masters, there is Mr., there are also a number of disciples and grandchildren, the power is not to be underestimated! Earlier, my fifth uncle and I had dealt with a gentleman from the earth hall, that Mr. Earth's ability is only slightly inferior to my fifth uncle's, as for the master of the earth, it beats my fifth uncle's by one step."
"Hiss ......" Uncle De draws in a breath of cold air, saying, "It's actually this powerful! Hong Ren's ability is only in the same range as mine, if that's the case, there are just too many people in the five halls of the Different Five Elements who can outperform me."
I couldn't say yes or no, and was silent.
Uncle Te said, "In this case, it seems that letting Wang Gui'e's spirit do evil and harm people in this river must also be that demon's instruction, which explains why Wang Gui'e didn't do harm three years ago, but came to harm people three years later. Just, what exactly is the purpose of raising a stern spirit and harming the living like this by the different five elements?"
"I don't know." I said, "Perhaps they are collecting the souls of the dead, when the people from the Earth Hall went to the Chen family's ancestral tomb, wanting to use the Earth Spirit Puppets to collect the souls of the Chen family's ancestors. But what exactly the collection of souls was used for is unknown."
"In that case, perhaps I understand." Uncle Te said, "According to previous generations, after a person dies, the soul leaves the body, some will reincarnate and become human again, while others become ghosts and wild spirits, drifting around outside due to all sorts of reasons, and these should be the things that the Five Elements of the Fey want to seize. Moreover, even those souls that can be reincarnated will leave some residual souls near the body to bless future generations, and these should also be the objects that the Five Elements want to seize. Soul, is the most spiritual thing in this world, a thought becomes a god, a thought becomes a devil, foreign five lines everywhere to harm people, I am afraid that is to plunder large-scale souls, used to sacrifice what terrible things. However, I can't be sure what exactly it is."
"It should be, yes." I said worriedly, "All in all, that gang of demons are definitely not easy to deal with. Right now, Wang Gui'e's soul has already been captured by the right person, so we still need to think long and hard about what to do next."
Uncle Te said, "Since we are in charge of this matter, we have to start well and finish well, and we have to manage it to the end. The Five Elements are evil people, so we don't have to be polite when we meet them!"
I let out a "hmmm" and said, "The person who captured Wang Gui'e's soul this time should not be as capable as you, Uncle Te, or else he wouldn't have suddenly attacked and captured Wang Gui'e's soul when we broke his trail. Obviously he was afraid that Wang Gui'e would reveal more information about him and that we would find him."
"Right!" Uncle Te said, "You've hit the nail on the read! We need to find this person! To be able to make Wang Gui'e so scared that she would rather go to the eighteen layers of hell for eternity than dare to tell us where he came from, it shows how vicious this person is. If we don't catch him, there will definitely be more wronged souls under his control and manipulation in the future, which in turn will maim more people."
I said, "Listen to Uncle De, do whatever you say!"
Uncle Te looked at the corpses on the shore and said, "Let's first transcend the dead souls of these children."
The villagers still don't know what happened to us here, before, there was a cloudy wind, dark clouds, and the river was tumbling, they were all too scared to squeak out long ago, and now even though the wind and waves have calmed down, they still don't dare to come over without Uncle De's permission.
Uncle Te called Liu Village Chief over, changed the ceremony into a super-death arrangement, re-prayed to heaven and earth, read and lit yellow incense, burned yellow paper, pinched the summoning trick, asked for the seven children's birthdates, changed a pair of super-death tokens, and re-executed the phantasmagoria.
I was reciting the supernatural skill I learned from the Record of the Righteous Mountain Duke: "The Divine Phase honors the Divine Phase, and the Three Ching Edicts the Divine Phase! Transcend you lonely souls and wild ghosts! Spirits, demons and monsters, the four ghosts of the grace, the head of the super, headless people living, guns and knives to kill, jumping water rope, death in the dark, the wrongful death, the debtor and the wrongdoer, the life of the child, kneeling in front of my platform, gossip and release light! Cham you go, transcendence of other places, for men and women, their own commitment, rich and poor, and look at the past life, and respect the Yin De, is your own call, the Royal Decree on the other people, urgent transcendence! I wish you all to be born again in a great hurry!"
After reciting, Uncle Te held the token on the table "bang" then a knock, said: "You and other seven ghosts, quickly out of the sea of suffering, to go to the afterlife!"
For a while, the wind and waves were calm.
There was no change in the surroundings, nor was there any response.
Uncle Te froze for a moment, and I looked at each other face to face. Under normal circumstances, there should be seven ghosts of the dead, kneeling down towards us two spell casters in order to give thanks before leaving.
How come now, there is no reaction at all?
"Uncle Te, could it be that my incantation was recited incorrectly?" I asked Uncle Te in a low voice, in fact, I was still quite confident in my memory, what I wanted to ask was whether there were any mistakes in Uncle Te's ritual steps and whatnot, but I was too embarrassed to ask, so I side-stepped the question.
Uncle Te shook his head and said, "You didn't make a mistake with your incantation, and I didn't make a mistake with my ritual, so I'll try again."
After that, Uncle Te knocked the "Order of Transcending Death" again and drank, "You and the seven ghosts, quickly get out of the sea of suffering and go to the afterlife!"
After that, there was still no movement.
The wind has not yet risen, the water waves do not rise, seven dead, none of the dead souls appear.
Uncle Te's face suddenly turned gloomy, saying, "Zhengzi, we've planted ourselves today!"
My heart tightened and I quickly asked, "What's going on?"
Uncle Te said grimly, "The seven dead children, their departed souls are not in the water anymore!"
"Huh?" I was startled and said in disbelief, "How could this happen?"
Uncle Te said, "It's because we're thinking too simply, that person from the water hall, since he was able to suck away Wang Gui'e's soul, how could he spare the souls of these seven children?"
