……
The next morning, Wen Cai drove Old Man Li's carriage all the way to Ren Town.
In the end, it was almost noon when they arrived at Qian Town.
In fact, the distance between the two towns was only a dozen miles, and Wencai's driving skills were too poor.
Ninth Uncle had thought that Qiusheng had already arranged everything at Old Man Li's house and that he could just go and hold the ceremony.
Qiu Sheng was nowhere to be seen.
"Where's Qiusheng? Where did this brat go?"
Ninth Uncle cursed inexplicably.
Wen Cai coldly handed over the knife and said,"Could it be that Qiusheng went to play by himself?" He was a very lazy person. Every time his master gave him a mission, he would drag it out as much as he could.”
However, Chu Yuan said," Master, I don't think Senior Brother Qiusheng has been here before. Look, no one has touched the decorations here at all. Even the bed is neat and tidy. I suspect that Senior Brother Qiusheng has never been here before."”
"If he didn't come, then where the hell did he go?”
Ninth Uncle said in exasperation.
Wen Cai rolled his eyes and guessed,"" Master, he must have been charmed by the female ghost last night. He's still flirting with her, talking about love, and taking off his clothes…"
"You seem to be very familiar with this process?”
Ninth Uncle had a sinister look on his face, and his tone was filled with pressure.
Wen Cai shook his head in panic and said,"I'm just worried about Qiu Sheng!"”
Initially, Chu Yuan did not think in that direction. However, when he heard Wen Cai say that Qiu Sheng might have been mesmerized by the female ghost, a thought suddenly flashed across his mind.
In the movie, Qiu Sheng was indeed bewitched by a female ghost named Dong Xiaoyu.
Moreover, that experience happened at the same time as Old Master Ren's corpse transformation.
Therefore, Chu Yuan had an idea.
Qiu Sheng must have met the female ghost, Dong Xiaoyu.
Realizing that Qiu Sheng was not around, Ninth Uncle had no choice but to bring Wen Cai and Chu Yuan to set up the mandala for the dipping ceremony.
The construction of the mandala had to be completed before the auspicious time, so the three of them had to hurry to complete it.
After a while, Qiu Sheng walked in in a daze.
His face was a little pale and he looked listless.
Ninth Uncle was about to scold him when he suddenly noticed that Qiu Sheng's expression was very abnormal.
Therefore, he did not get angry. Instead, he observed Qiu Sheng's expression and asked calmly,""Qiusheng, where did you go last night?”
Qiu Sheng did not seem to hear Ninth Uncle's question. He answered mechanically like an undead,""I'll go…go…"
Before he could finish his sentence, he fell to the ground, unconscious.
Ninth Uncle was stunned. Wen Cai was close to Qiu Sheng. He squatted down to check his breath and said, Master, he's asleep."
"Sleeping like a dead pig."
Wen Cai added.
Ninth Uncle was surprised.
What exactly did Qiusheng experience last night to expend so much energy?
Could it be as Wen Cai said, Qiu Sheng had encountered a ghost?
Qiu Sheng woke up in the evening.
He rubbed his eyes and saw Wencai looking at him.
"Qiusheng, you're awake?" Wen Cai asked in surprise.”
Qiu Sheng nodded.
"How do you feel now?" Ninth Uncle asked.”
"My…my…feeling? Hmm…Hmm…I can't tell for a while.”
Qiu Sheng frowned and answered while thinking hard.
" Senior Brother Qiusheng," Chu Yuan asked," do you feel that your waist and legs are sore and that you're not in good spirits? It's as if your body has been hollowed out?”
" Yes," Qiu Sheng nodded." Junior Brother, you're right. It's as if you've experienced it yourself."”
"What exactly did you experience last night?" Ninth Uncle asked in a deep voice.”
"Last night, I…"
Qiu Sheng's eyes suddenly flickered before he continued,""Last night, for some reason, I suddenly felt dizzy in the forest and fell asleep. After that, I don't even know how I got here…"
He answered in a daze and deliberately avoided Ninth Uncle's gaze when he spoke.
How could Ninth Uncle not see that Qiusheng was lying to him?
He remained calm and decided to investigate the matter in secret. He said,"Maybe you've been hit by a ghost wall. Get to work!”
"Yes."
"Master, speaking of which, the forest we passed by on our way here was indeed quite terrifying."”
"Are you afraid of being targeted by ghosts?" Ninth Uncle asked. In that case, I'll teach you the talisman to exorcise ghosts later.”
With Qiu Sheng's help, the mandala was soon set up.
The mandala was mainly decorated with all kinds of lamps.
For example, the Nine Nether Lamp, Nine Yang Lamp, Immortal Ascension Lamp, Eternal Life Lamp, Ten Return Man Saving Lamp, Three Paths Five Suffering Lamp, Six Hole Demon King Lamp, Nine Clouds Enlightenment Lamp, Seventeen Light Lamp, and so on.
Uncle Nine sent letters to report the war, set up a prison, issued a denunciation, accepted the edict, issued a pardon, crossed the bridge, summoned the lonely soul, asked for the three treasures, sent the treasury to give the dish, burned incense and let go.
When all the procedures were completed, the sky was almost completely dark.
" The most important thing in the mandala is the lamp," Ninth Uncle said." The lamp must be lit for a long time, so someone must stay behind to cut the candles and add oil…"
Before he could finish, Qiu Sheng volunteered,""Master, I'll stay. You can all leave!”
Ninth Uncle looked at him strangely and thought," It was usually difficult for this kid to do some work. Why was he so diligent today?
If things are abnormal, there must be evil spirits. If people are abnormal, there must be knives. If they don't mean it, there must be ghosts.
In short, there must be something strange!
