When Nata came to the hotel, it was more than three o'clock in the morning, with a bulging travel bag in her hand..
The third is very skilled in Nata's business. He takes the bag and opens it. It contains a black cloak, a yellow cloth, three small cyan bowls, a fish net, candles, incense candles... And other miscellaneous things.
When the third brother arranged the Dharma field, Chen Mo briefly explained his experience in the baby pit. After listening to Nata, he asked, "what have you done in the baby pit?"
"I want to..." Chen Mo thought it was troublesome to explain this. He changed his voice and said, "we'll talk about it later. Can we solve the immediate problem?"
Nata looked at the filth left by the impact of evil spirits on the window glass and said, "it's not difficult to solve it. But I have to lend you something. "
"As long as you don't borrow your life, you can borrow anything." Chen Mo said with a smile.
When Nata saw Chen Mo's indifference, she couldn't help laughing. It was also because he was a power. If he were an ordinary person, nine out of ten would have died long ago.
"Sister-in-law, the Dharma field has been arranged." The third clapped his hands and said.
The Dharma court is arranged in the center of the living room. Three cyan porcelain bowls are placed on the square yellow cloth in a triangular position. Two red candles and incense candles are also laid on the ground in a row
Nata walked over, sat cross legged facing the window, untied her coat and took off. She only wore a black tight corset. Many strange Scripture characters were tattooed on her bare back. She put on her black cloak like a raincoat and took out a piece of dark paint.
Chen Mo whispered, "third, is the tattoo on Nata real?"
"Of course it's true. Master Azan has tattoos on his body. They are runes to subdue evil spirits. Tattoos on his body can enhance master Azan's mana. " The third said he had a nose and eyes.
"What's the dark one in her hand?"
"It's a skull, and it's a dead skull. It's a magic tool for practice."
Chen Mo nodded, indicating that it was so, and then stood quietly watching Nata cast her spell.
Nata first poured some body oil into each of the three small bowls. She cut her fingers with a knife and smeared the blood on her skull. Then she began to recite words in her mouth. After reading for a while, Chen Mo began to weigh her head and feet lightly, and her mind sounded like thousands of flies.
In a trance, Chen Mo feels someone pushing him. He shakes his head and finds that the third is talking to himself with his mouth open and closed, but he can't hear what he says clearly.
"Mr. Mo, Mr. mo..." the third shook Chen Mo's body and said.
"Ah? What's up? " Chen Mo returns to his senses.
"My sister-in-law said, lend you some blood. You drop blood into three bowls of body oil. " The third handed Chen Mo a dagger.
Chen Mo takes the dagger, goes to Nata and squats down. Nata holds the skull in one hand and the Guanyin finger in the other hand. She looks dignified and closes her eyes to chant.
Chen Mo puts the blade on his finger, turns his head and asks the third: "how much?"
"God three ghosts four, four drops in each bowl."
Chen Mo nods and cuts his finger, then drops four drops of blood in each bowl. As soon as she put the knife down, nata opened her eyes and put her fingers into the bowl to stir.
When the blood and the body oil were mixed, nata said in stiff Chinese, "old three, Chen Mo, you two open the window, and then open the fishing net to block the window."
The third replied and came to the window with his fishing net and Chen mo.
When he opened the window, a cold wind and monsoon immediately blew in. I don't know if it's the reason in his heart. Chen Mo couldn't help shivering. He thought that he had seen a lot in his life and would do something to subdue demons and eliminate demons.
Seeing Chen Mo and the third open the fishing net to block the window, nata puts down the magic weapon in her hand, picks up the incense candle and lights it. The white smoke of the lit incense candle is steaming and is blown by the wind.
Ling Xi, who had been quietly observing nearby, could not help frowning slightly. She felt that the fragrance emitted by the burning incense candle was familiar, as if she had heard it not long ago.
Just when Lingxi remembered when the smell was out of date, she heard the sound of "chirp", and then subconsciously looked at the window. She saw a blue baby bumping in from the window and falling into the fishing net opened by Chen Mo and the third.
Nata picked up a bowl and jumped up. She rushed over a few steps and spilled the body oil in the bowl on the evil spirit. The evil spirit was like a small beast, rushing left and right in the fish net, biting and grasping, accompanied by a cold howl.
Three bowls of corpse oil mixed with Chen Mo's blood spilled on the evil spirit. It began to become quiet, whispered like a baby, and licked the corpse oil on the ground and its body with its small blue tongue.
This scene made Chen's eyes stare. Was the evil spirit in front of him really a ghost? It seemed to him more like an undiscovered new species. If you put this kind of thing on the zoo exhibition, there should be a market.
After about four or five minutes, the evil spirit in the fish net lay on the ground and slept like sleeping pills.
Nata took off her black cloak, wrapped the evil spirit, put it in her travel bag, then wrapped the travel with a fishnet and said, "it's over."
The third handed Nata's clothes and said to Chen Mo, "Mr. Mo, I'm right. This kind of thing is very simple for my sister-in-law. "
Chen Mo glanced at the travel bag on the ground and asked, "what are you going to do with that?"
Nata put on her coat and said with a smile, "that's a ghost baby. It's a kid raised by other master Azan. Maybe the kid ate the master back or ran out secretly. It's rare for a ghost baby to grow up so big in our business. I'll take it back to LAN island for medicine. "
Chen Mo nodded and said, "I didn't expect such a strange thing in the world."
Nata sat back on the sofa and said, "is it strange? Since there are powers in the world, it is not uncommon for ghosts to exist. Don't you Chinese often say that there are all kinds of wonders in the world? "
Chen Mo smiled and said, "that's what you said."
While cleaning up the Dharma field, the old three said, "sister-in-law, do you go back to LAN island now or wait until dawn?"
Nata looked at the time and said, "at dawn, you don't have to send me. I'll go back by myself." Then she looked at Chen Mo and said, "can you tell me why you went to the baby pit?"
Chen Mo sat down and said, "I want to prove whether there are ghosts in the world?"
"Why confirm it?"
"How do you say that..." he said after a moment of meditation, "in fact, I'm more curious about your identity than whether there are ghosts in the world."
"Me?" Nata was surprised.
"Yes. You are the one. Because I think your powers are different from what we say. Or it's different from what we repaired. "
Nata smiled and said, "strictly speaking, we practice the same way, but the realm of practice is different. Some of the powers call us ghosts, and others call us pseudo powers. "
"Pseudo powers?" Chen Mo heard this word for the first time.
"Yes. Pseudo powers. According to your Chinese Taoist school, anyone who involves Yin Yang, five elements and strange gossip can be called a pseudo power. "
"Why is there such a name?"
"Because all changes are inseparable from their religion, whether it is ghost Taoism or your powers, they all originated from Buddhism and followed Taoism. But the ultimate goal is to become a Buddha and an immortal. The difference is that the powers belong to the big faction, and we belong to the side door. "
"The powers are divided into heaven, earth and man. Which one of the ghost ways do you say belongs to?"
"I can't say that."
Chen Mo thought for a while, but he still didn't get the answer he wanted. He continued: "the ghost road admits that there is a hell, and the powers think there is a different world. Since you and we are going the same way, are the underworld and the alien world the same place? "
Nata pondered for a moment and said, "I've heard about the alien world. Several heavyweight old people in our organization also discussed this issue. At that time, I had the honor to sit in. They believe that the alien world and the underworld are not a world, or a space. "
This view is basically consistent with Chen Mo's speculation. He hurriedly asked, "what's the difference between the two spaces?"
"Generally speaking, one is a place for the dead and the other is a fantasy."
"Mirage? Is it the fairyland? "
Nata shook her head, looked at the old three on one side and said in Thai, "old three, go to the room and then come out."
"Ah? Why? " The third looked puzzled.
Nata continued to say in Thai, "just do it."
The third entered the bedroom with fog and then came out of the room.
Chen Mo asked suspiciously, "what did you say to him?"
Nata said, "I'll let you in and then come out. The purpose of this is to give you an example, because it's too complicated to explain out of thin air. " After a pause, she asked, "what did old three just do?"
"He entered the room."
"And then?"
"Came out again."
"For example, the living room is our present world, and the bedroom is an alien world. The door he passes through is the door to the alien world. What did he pass by when he entered the alien world? "
Chen Mo was a little confused and said, "of course, he passed through a door."
"How did he pass?"
Chen Merton doesn't know how to answer. Of course, the third step into the bedroom. Such a simple truth is known to fools, so Chen Merton knows that Nata doesn't want this answer. But what?
While listening, Lingxi said, "he opened the door first and then went in."
Nata nodded first, then shook her head and said, "maybe I'm not proficient in Chinese and my meaning expression is not accurate. I mean, there is a wall distance between the bedroom and the living room, and this distance is the existence space of the underworld. "
Chen MOTU was stunned and said, "do you mean that if you want to go to the other world, you must pass through the underworld, and the underworld is the door to the other world?"
"That's almost what I mean. However, this is only the view of several elders in our organization. No one knows whether this is the case, because no one has ever been to the underworld or to the alien world. "
Chen Mo nodded and said, "whether it's theory or conjecture, it's at least a possibility."
Nata asked, "you seem very interested in the alien world?"
Chen Mo smiled and said, "practitioners must be curious about these things. I'm just asking. "
Nata said, "I've heard that the alien world is a place where there is no return. It's more dangerous than hell."
"Where did you hear that?"
"Legend."
Chen Mo said "Oh" and felt that the topic could be over, because since it was a legend, there was no way to inquire. He lit a cigarette and asked, "sister-in-law, can you communicate?"
"As a mage in black, channeling is the most basic requirement."
"I heard the third said that the old soul had drunk with him, and you went to the place of the incident at that time. Have you ever communicated with him? "
Nata frowned slightly and asked, "what do you mean?"
"Sister in law, don't get me wrong. I just want to know if the old ghost is living well down there. "
"He's fine."
"What's a good way?"
"He... Has food and drink, so he's very good."
Chen Mo smiled and said, "he's doing well. I want to give the old ghost something, but he's down there. I don't know how to give it. I'll ask the old three to bring it to you another day. I hope my sister-in-law can help me transfer it to him?"
"What do you want?"
Chen Mo said with a smile, "it's nothing. It's just something to commemorate our friendship."
"OK. Then you can ask the third to hand it over to me. "
Next, there was a rambling chat. The third didn't leave the hotel with Nata until dawn. Chen Mo stretched his waist very easily. Seeing that Lingxi didn't want to leave on the sofa, he said, "did you know the difference between the alien world and the underworld long ago?"
"Yes." Lingxi answered.
"Then why didn't you tell me and let me go to the baby pit?"
"The essence of enlightenment lies in personal experience. Only by personally experiencing it can you more thoroughly understand the truth."
Chen Mo smiled bitterly and said, "enlightenment is also a fatal thing." He looked at the rising sun outside the window and said, "I haven't slept all night. Don't you go back to your room to rest?"
"I'm not sleepy."
Chen Mo yawned and said, "since you're not sleepy, I won't accompany you. Go back to your room to catch up."
"You're not going home today?"
"Thailand is a paradise for men. I don't know when to come next time. Since I came and left, I'll always enjoy it again."
"Shameless, obscene." Lingxi finally said the four words she had been holding in her heart.
Chen Mo smiled indifferently and said, "since the creator created men and women, it is not only to let them inherit their families, but also to make them happy together. Do you know why? "
Ling Xi looked at Chen Mo contemptuously and disdained to answer such a vulgar question.
Chen Mo doesn't mind, but asks and answers himself: "because the creator believes that people live too painful. As long as people live, both men and women have to face endless torture such as greed, bumpiness, infatuation, hate, love, evil and desire. Therefore, the creator gave them the instinct to create happiness in pain, so that they can briefly forget the pain. This is the gift of the creator. "
Facing Chen Mo's fallacies, Lingxi gets up and leaves, then strides to the door.
Watching Ling Xi slam the door, Chen Mo smiles proudly. He goes to the tea table and picks up the cigarette box. After opening it, he is stunned. The cigarette box is empty!
He clearly remembered that there was another cigarette in the cigarette box. Why did it disappear?
