Weird Cultivation, I have a five-organ temple

Chapter 281 Weird Taboo

Lu Yang looked up at the sky and nodded, "It's time to go into the mountains. When we get there, we need to make some arrangements in advance, so that the mountain ghost won't run away again after it comes."

Lu Dao nodded in agreement.

The mountain ghost is cunning. If you want to catch it, even if it is just its clone, you need to make sufficient arrangements in advance.

But Lu Dao still asked one more question: "Have you found out what the taboos are in that temple?"

"Disciple was just about to report this to Uncle Lu."

It was not surprising that Shang Lu asked Lu Dao this question.

Lu Dao was not only a wizard officer of the Discipline Department, but he also followed the Great Wizard Zhongli to hunt mountain ghosts in Feiwu County. He must have encountered similar situations.

“According to the people in Xipinggou, the temple doesn’t look very large from the outside, but you can’t see the interior layout.

To enter the temple and pray to the mountain ghost, three rules must be followed.

First, before entering the temple, you must burn incense and pray.

Second, after entering the temple, you must look down at your toes, walk along the gravel in the mud all the way to the outside of the main hall, and wait for the mountain ghost to descend.

Third, when you hear the bell that represents the arrival of the mountain ghost, you must kneel down immediately and say, "Welcome the great immortal Biying to the temple." You must not continue to stand.

Hearing this, Lu Yang couldn't help but sneer: "This mountain ghost is so arrogant, he really thinks he is a true god. What will happen if he doesn't follow these three rules?"

Shang Lu said: "If you don't burn incense and pray, you can't enter the temple gate. You can only wander outside the gate. The temple gate is right in front of you, but you can't get in. If you force your way over the wall, you will disappear."

"Missing?" Lu Yang raised his eyebrows.

Shang Lu nodded and said, "Yes, he disappeared completely and there is no news of him since then."

Seeing that Lu Yang did not ask further questions, Shang Lu continued: “After entering the temple, if you look around, you will go crazy and then disappear.

If you stand instead of kneeling when the bell rings, you will become distorted and eventually disappear.”

“Good investigation.”

Lu Dao nodded approvingly and asked with some testing: "Why do you think there are these three taboos?"

Before Lu Yang and Lu Dao came, Shang Lu had actually thought about this problem.

Hearing Lu Dao's question at this moment, he bowed and replied:

“In reply to Uncle Lu, this is what I think.

Burning incense before entering the temple is to inform the mountain ghosts and let them know the situation of the visitors.

If you don't burn incense, it means you have two minds, so you won't be allowed in. If you break in and disappear, it means there must be some weird tricks set up by mountain ghosts in that temple!

After entering the temple, you cannot look around, either because there is something strange hidden in the temple that cannot be seen by others.

Either there was some strange evil spirit in the temple, or there really was a trace of chaotic divinity hidden in the mountain ghost, or even a bit of it was left in the temple, which ordinary people could not bear, so they went crazy after seeing or hearing it.

As for kneeling when the bell rings, it is probably because the mountain ghost has come and wants the believers to kneel down to show their submission. And those who fail to kneel down in time are regarded as offended by the mountain ghost and punished? "

Lu Dao nodded continuously as he listened.

When Shang Lu finished speaking, a smile even appeared on his cold face.

"You made good judgments about the first two taboos. As for the last taboo, besides the fact that not kneeling is considered an offense, there is another reason... Those who do not kneel are regarded as sacrifices!"

"Sacrifice?"

Shang Lu thought about it and it seemed to be true, otherwise he would not use "disappearance" as a punishment.

Wouldn't it be more of a punishment and deterrent effect if we just killed them in front of everyone?

Lu Yang frowned, "The last two taboos are easy to deal with... With our abilities, we won't necessarily be affected by evil spirits or divinity and go crazy or distorted. But we have to burn incense before entering the temple, how should we deal with this?"

"If burning incense really means revealing one's identity to the mountain ghost, then won't we be exposed as soon as we burn incense? But if we break in without burning incense, we may alert the enemy..." Lu Yang rubbed his temple and felt a headache.

It’s easier and less brainless to just wield a sword and kill people.

"This matter is not difficult to handle."

Lu Dao narrowed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then smiled and gave his judgment: "It can pretend to be an immortal body. We can also borrow someone else's birth date and use an identity to get in."

As he spoke, Lu Dao waved his hand and took out a few pieces of talisman paper from his sleeve pocket. He used a cinnabar pen to draw little figures on one side of the talisman paper.

Then he recited the spell and blew towards the talismans.

Several pieces of talisman paper immediately combusted without fire and burned into several small paper figures.

Seeing this, Lu Yang understood Lu Dao's intention: "Using a substitute amulet to impersonate someone else? That's a good idea. But whose birth date is being impersonated? Is it this group of people?"

He turned his head and looked at the people in Xipinggou in the village.

Lu Dao and Shang Lu both shook their heads.

Lu Dao said, "No, these people have been to the mountain ghost temple, so there is no guarantee that they will not remember it. If we pretend to be them, we will be exposed easily."

Shang Lu asked the people beside him: "Are there any death row prisoners in our thief Cao's office?"

Shen Tu answered subconsciously: "I have imprisoned a few people and will be executed in the autumn."

"That's them." Shang Lu made the decision immediately.

"The mountain ghost probably has never seen these people. And based on their birth dates, even if something happens, it's what they deserve."

Lu Dao also nodded and said it was good.

Although Shentu couldn't remember the birth dates of those death row inmates, it didn't matter.

Shang Lu contacted Wang Chao through the Wuyuan Jade Card and asked him to help run a trip to the Zeicao Office to find the Zeicao clerk on duty and retrieve the files of the death row prisoners.

Wang Chao was helpless. Shang Lu had clearly gone out on a trial mission, but he had actually found a bunch of things for him to do.

He was asked to run back and forth twice between the thieves' office and the witch hospital today.

However, despite all the complaints, Wang Chao still transformed into a night owl and flew to Chengfeng County as soon as possible.

On the one hand, he couldn't refuse Shang Lu's request.

On the other hand, after Shang Lu communicated with Lu Dao, he asked him to apply for the task of assisting in hunting down mountain ghosts on the Witch Academy's jade token.

There is no need for anyone else to come. He will naturally get a share of the credit for Xipinggou.

By going to the bandit Cao's office, Wang Chao could gain merit and make contributions, so he naturally would not refuse.

Soon, the birth dates of several death row prisoners were sent to Shang Lu via the Wuyuan Jade Plate.

This made Shang Lu couldn't help but sigh that having the Witch Academy Jade Card was so convenient that it made him vaguely regain the feeling of using a mobile phone.

After getting the eight characters of birth, Lu Dao immediately wrote them on the back of several pieces of talisman paper, distributed them to Shang Lu, Lu Yang and others, and taught them to stick them on their hearts.

Before doing all this, Shang Lu and his men had already left Xipinggou and sneaked up the mountain at night.

In Xipinggou, they left two thieves to lead Geng Feng and others to guard the villagers.

Although there are only two thieves left, there is no need to worry about any problems.

Because all the villagers of Xipinggou were knocked unconscious by Lu Dao's spell.

These people who wanted to steal also got some talismans and paper figures.

If something really happens, even if we are defeated, it is completely fine to run away and alert the enemy.
