Chapter Fifteen: Ten Thousand Gu Souls Devouring Array

  "Master Niu, I'll be off then. I'm leaving this in your hands. If everything goes smoothly, I'll definitely thank you properly later. And if you can't handle the matters with the courtyard and the back house, just forget it, I really don't want any more trouble." Tang Tianbao looked worried too.

  "Don't worry, I and Jiucheng have our own measure." Anyway, if it can be done, do it; if not, slip away. Just think of it as a trip out, but I was wrong in a big way.

  "Master Niu, someone will pick you up in a week. If you have any requests, I'll leave you a pager, and you can reach me anytime."

  They left a week's worth of food and all went back. In this closed mountain village, there were only three people: me, Jiucheng, and the old woman from downstairs. I heard that her IQ is a bit problematic.

  The yard of this house is really big, the gate faces west. After entering, you can see a row of houses opposite, to the north is a shed for raising cattle and horses, but not an animal in sight, and to the south there is nothing at all.

  He and Jiucheng sat in the middle courtyard, calculating and thinking.

  This house doesn't have any major Feng Shui taboos, at most it's just that the south side has an opening, but this house happens to be backed by a mountain on its south side. In summer, shallow wet air enters the courtyard, and at worst, you might get headaches or leg pain. It's not that serious.

  Since the problem lies in the backyard, I have to go in and take a look. Otherwise, how can I know what happened? The old rusty lock tightly bound the door of the backyard.

  I and Jiucheng couldn't open the lock, so we climbed over the wall to get in.

  In the backyard, there are three large houses on display, but what's strange is that the bottom of the houses are raised by over ten centimeters with wooden boards, making it seem like they're not connected to the ground. The surrounding area is all weeds and wild grasses. We carefully made our way into one of the houses, and something tripped me up underfoot.

  "Not good." Jiucheng yelled out and I also realized that something was rushing towards us from all directions.

  Innumerable small insects flew over from the ground. I took a look and shouted, "It's locusts!"

  "Quickly take off your pants and pee." I and Jiucheng drew a circle around us with children's urine.

  There is also alkaline substance in the urine, and the worms retreat one after another as soon as they smell the urine. Fortunately, we are all still sturdy kids, so we managed to save a life, the effect of children's urine should not be underestimated.

  "Master, fortunately we didn't mess with those two women - otherwise we would have died today. Master, you're really great." Jiucheng seemed very happy, and I was also thinking that what the master said was absolutely right.

  No longer dared to advance rashly. Had to move forward little by little, and when arrived at the house, had already discovered three corpses.

  "It seems that there are no evil spirits inside, but rather a Gu."

  Mom, I'm a Taoist priest who deals with ghosts and monsters, but suddenly coming to this, I don't know how to do it.

  We continued to walk forward and came to the door of this house. This house had no furniture, only a dark floor and dark walls. The strangest thing was that there was no door. Mobile phone mobile terminal first launch address:

  We didn't go in, I bent down and smelled the floor, there was a strange smell, it's hard to say whether it's stinky or fragrant.

  I thought of using a wooden stick to sweep the ground, but when I turned back, this rabbit was probably gone. "Nine percent, you damn bastard, don't run around randomly, it's deadly."

  Mom came up with an eight-character phrase, no one made a sound, my back felt a bit chilly, I wonder if your mom wouldn't be quietly taken away by some big guy, suddenly feeling a little at a loss.

  Grandma bear, pry it open and take a look. Without caring about him, she found a wooden stick to poke the ground, and indeed, the ground was soft.

  After poking a few times, something under the floor was surging upwards, pushing up this soft floor. Unexpectedly, the soft floor was pierced, and a larger worm crawled out.

  Before long, they came surging towards me in dense crowds.

  I just found out that cockroaches can be raised under the floor. I used up all the child's urine earlier, and this time it really is gone. The situation doesn't look good.

  At this time, I was in a dilemma, touched my body and still had several bags of insect-repellent powder, sprinkled it out, but it didn't work at all, these insects continued to rush towards me like a tide.

  Having no choice, I had to engage in a decisive battle with them. The first few who came forward were trampled to death, and the ground was covered with a puddle of green liquid. The others kept coming towards me incessantly.

  The gadfly's venom is so potent that even a single bite can be toxic, and the fluid from its body can cause severe skin ulcers.

  The types and appearances of Gu insects are diverse, the most common ones being parasitic Gu, air-sucking Gu, poisonous Gu, etc. These all come from the "Qimen Bai Cao Fang" (Hundred Herbs Formula) obtained from that old Daoist's tomb.

  "Master, come quickly." I saw Jiu Cheng's head poking out from that unremarkable clump of grass, and I rushed over in two strides.

  There was originally a staircase in the pile of grass, and I walked down from the stairs with Jiucheng, occasionally looking up at the hole. The wasps were very afraid of the grass around the hole, just hovering in place, not daring to move forward.

  Seeing this, I finally calmed down in my heart.

  The road above has been blocked by the Gu insect, and we can only grit our teeth and go down from that staircase, who knows what's below.

  "This time it's really a narrow escape." I didn't make a sound. After walking for a while, we seemed to have already walked tens of meters underground.

  "Wow." Before us stood a grand hall, and in the center of the hall was placed something. After focusing my eyes, I saw that it was a small coffin. At this moment, I was shocked stiff. This setup was really unimaginable.

  "Master, I have a bad feeling about this time, can we go back?"

  To be honest, I'm not afraid of any monsters or ghosts because at worst I can fight them off and go to the afterlife. But what's fighting me now isn't a monster or ghost, but some disgusting bugs that can kill people.

  "My mom gave me an eight-character phrase: 'When a car reaches the foot of a mountain, there will always be a road.' I have no idea what it means."

  We cautiously approached the coffin. There was something moving inside, and even Shixiong didn't know what was going on.

  Currently unaware of the situation here, if that Gu worm is brought out again, it's a dead end either way, and there's really no salvation.

  "Let's take a closer look, maybe we can find something else." The senior brother warned.

  There are sculptures of pythons in the four corners around the hall, with their mouths open to the sky, as if asking others for food. The coffin in the hall is placed on a large circular platform, and there is also a river less than half a meter wide around the platform.

  I can finally hold it in no more, and with Jiucheng opening the coffin, I'd rather die.

  "Master, if you really want to open it, aren't you afraid that an even bigger worm will come in and offer sacrifices to its five internal organs?"

  "Get out of here, can't you say something nice?"

  "Master, I think we'd better not open it. Let's wait for the bugs upstairs to disperse and then sneak away. This job doesn't feel right." Jiucheng pleaded.

  The curiosity of young people is like this, not giving up until they reach the Yellow River. "Grandma's, open it, a big scar on my head as big as a bowl, killing someone is just a matter of nodding one's head, and death is just like falling asleep." I've said so much, and 90% of them have given up.

  "Huh? This coffin actually has two doors. There are handles on both doors, I pulled them open with one hand."

  Inside the coffin was a worm that was wriggling around, this worm looked very strange, pure white in color, with a big head, like a doll's face, and it looked quite cute.

  "Could it be the Ten Thousand Corpse Devouring Soul Formation?"

  "Ten Thousand Soul Devouring Formation." Jiucheng exclaimed in surprise.

  "What's this 'Ten Thousand Soul Devouring Formation'? I've never heard of it." Jiu Cheng asked me.

  "You haven't heard of many more, this Qimen Baicao Fang has it." I took it out, and 90% of them came up.

  At first, there were no two factions of the Qigong school and the Li Qi faction. At that time, the Taoist faction was still a traditional faction, and these two factions were later divided, which people called the new faction.

  Each faction has its own most skilled Feng Shui array, at the beginning of the distinction between new and old, someone combined the new and old theories to create the Wan Hui Xi Hun Array.

  This formation contains many new and old theories, as well as the sorcery of a few ethnic minorities. It is considered a unique Feng Shui method. The creator of this formation has no records and is unknown to anyone. In the end, during a war, someone stole the complete book of this formation, rewrote 49 layout methods that flowed into the folk, while the real layout method was only one.

  Everyone in the Feng Shui world knows this story, but no one has ever seen this formation before. However, my master and I were able to see it, truly a once-in-three-lifetimes fortune.

  In the complete versions that have been passed down among the people, there is a commonality: 'Four snakes sit alone in the four directions, looking up at the sky as if they want to eat.'

  I turned around and looked at the python behind me, wasn't it him?

  "My god, there's nothing below, damn it to hell, is this going to kill me?" Master, look at this, next to it is just a drawing of the eight trigrams, nothing else.

  "What does this mean?" Jiucheng stared at me foolishly.

  A coffin, two doors, four snakes, eight trigrams!!!!!!

  The brain is rapidly spinning, and it's decided by understanding the eight trigrams of generation and restraint.

  I'm really too clever. But can this solve anything?

  He and Jiucheng sat down to calculate the calculation, since this is the principle of Bagua Xiangsheng Xiangke, the python was born with water, but that small stream was a distance away from the python.

  Arriving at the water's edge, the water is indeed very clear. The riverbed is paved with granite, and upon closer inspection, a pattern of snakes is carved into it.

  Suddenly enlightened, didn't the snake turn into a dragon once it came out of the water?

  Four snakes come out of the water, and they become four dragons.

  "Jiucheng, think about what the wall of this backyard is like." I seem to recall something again.

  "Octagon ah. Ah, octagon." This octagon didn't quite match earlier, but now it seems to fit perfectly.

  "Look at this circular disc under the coffin in the hall, what do you think?" I asked Jiucheng.

  "Master, don't tease me anymore. What can those two brushes of mine do? Just say it quickly." Jiucheng scratched his head.

  Heaven and earth give birth to two forms, the two forms give birth to four images, and the four images give birth to eight trigrams. This is indeed a tightly connected set of eight trigrams, but these eight trigrams seem to have no connection. Having studied Tao for some time, this strange and unique feng shui pattern is seen for the first time.

  I looked at the coffin again, "Jiu Cheng, do you think that coffin will move?"

  Ninety percent of this sentence makes me feel like a monk who has been fooled. "Master, stop teasing me, okay? This coffin can still move, you're scaring me!"

  I immediately thought of the two forms and eight trigrams, went up and gently rotated the coffin, and indeed the coffin had turned at an angle.

  The coffin and the trench on the circular platform merged, shrinking into the platform, which immediately shrunk into the ground.

  At this time, water also flowed into the round platform from inside.

  In a short while, four pythons spat out water from their mouths, with water columns as high as 7-8 meters.

  Looking down from the already sunken round platform, it has sunk by about four or five meters.

  However, the coffin lid disappeared, and all the worms inside disappeared.
