There is a trick

Chapter 128: Invite the Gods and Open the Mirror (1/2)

Zhou Chang showed everyone the direction of the compass needle.

He said, “I didn’t expect that this compass would also tell us to go directly to the Wangzi Village.

In fact, in my opinion, since this "Black Desolate Mountain" is very likely the root cause of all the strange changes today, we might as well go directly to the "Black Desolate Mountain". Maybe the "key" to escape from this dangerous place lies in the Black Desolate Mountain.

But this is just my opinion. What do you think?
Feel free to speak your mind.

Let’s discuss it together.”

"The boss of the corpse-carrying troupe said that this compass can lead us to the right path and avoid danger.

Although we cannot be sure whether the compass is effective or not, we cannot tell which of the three roads is better or worse, so let's follow the compass and go to the Wangzi Village.

What do you think?" Yang Rui was the second to speak.

Bai Xiu'e, Bai's father, and Shi Danzi also spoke up.

Most people prefer to take the route to Wangzi Village.

Only Bai Xiu'e obeyed Zhou Chang's opinion and thought that they could go directly to Heihuang Mountain.

"Since most people agree to take the road to Wangzi Village, let's go east." Yang Rui made the final decision. He glanced at Zhou Chang and warned him, "You are a person with too many adventurous and radical ideas in your bones.

But you must remember that next time you find yourself in a dangerous place, you must proceed with caution.

You only have one life, and so do we all. Once you take risks and make mistakes, there will be no coming back!

Let's say we go to Black Wasteland Mountain. With the abilities of the old, weak, sick and disabled like us, if we encounter the terrifying demons in Black Wasteland Mountain, how confident are we that we can win? Is it all about improvisation and a little bit of luck?"

Zhou Chang shook his head: "I just think that the remaining two villages may not be less dangerous than the Black Wasteland Mountain.

Moreover, where do these three roads lead to in the end? What the blind man told us may not be the truth.

But I am indeed a little extreme. Let's go along the east road and see if there is a place called "Lost Son Village" ahead.

Before that, let me start a forum——

Now I have some inspiration. I think that by using the "Summoning Gods" now, I should be able to summon the two generals who died a violent death and have them live on my altar."

"Alright." Yang Rui raised his eyebrows and nodded in agreement. "Now we can ask the gods to live in the altar. If we encounter any danger later, we will have more ways to deal with it."

He then directed Shidanzi to bring a few stones and arrange them in the shape of a Chinese character "品" on the open ground.

After Zhou Chang drew a circle outside the Chinese-Pin-shaped altar, lit the incense and candles, and placed the iron seal of the Thunder Commander on the altar, he suddenly felt a sense in his heart - his own "Wei Shanji" altar had been completed.

The stick of incense standing in front of the altar connected Zhou Chang's mind and thoughts.

The wisp of green smoke rising from the incense head drifted in all directions, conveying Zhou Chang's will to the ancestors of the Black Mountain Dharma. When it reached the three saints on the altar, all the ghost and god ancestors let go of their breath and gathered around the altar, making this altar have the real effect of connecting all parties and communicating between the inside and the outside.

This was Zhou Chang's first time to ascend the altar.

It feels strange.

He bowed before the altar, took out the yellow paper, and raised the master's brush, allowing his mind to pursue the vague "feeling" that had previously floated in his heart. At the same time, he visualized the specific facial makeup of the "two generals who died unjustly" drawn in the book given by Yang Rui, and muttered to himself:

"The sky is majestic, the earth is majestic...

Today, I obey the command of the Three Saints, hold the divine pen of the Holy Lord Luankui, present it to the altar, and reach down to the netherworld, to invite 'the Left General who died unjustly, and the Right General who died unjustly' to come to my altar and strengthen my prestige!
Please come and 'the left general who died unexpectedly, the right general who died unjustly', offer food to him at dawn and dusk, and provide him with a feast day and night...

Hurry like a law! "

While Zhou Chang was muttering to himself, he held a brush in his hand and followed his heart's feelings to draw many complex and strange patterns on the yellow paper.

——This is the talisman specially used to summon the ‘two generals who died unjustly’.

He stamped the iron seal of "Thunder Commander" on the end of the talisman, and the yellow talisman instantly ignited without fire and burned into a ball of ash!
The paper ashes rolled and were blown into the air by the wind, disappearing without a trace in a moment along with the green smoke that drifted in all directions.

The next moment, the green smoke that was drifting in all directions suddenly turned into colorful colors, like a colorful river flowing in all directions, or like a streak of silk - this streak of silk wrapped around Zhou Chang and finally fell on the altar, forming two facial masks, one mainly black and the other mainly red!

All the incense and candles were gathered on the facial masks that represented the auras of the two generals who died suddenly and unjustly!

Zhou Chang lit another stick of incense on the altar, and when the incense burned out, he stood up. "He was summoned?" Yang Rui, who was standing by, asked hurriedly.

"Yes, I have summoned him." Zhou Chang replied.

People outside cannot see what is happening on his altar.

Even though Yang Rui and Zhou Chang are from the same lineage, unless the two of them work together to ascend the altar, they will not be able to observe the situation on each other's altar.

Therefore, if Zhou Chang had not told him proactively, Yang Rui would not have known whether Zhou Chang's prayer to the gods was successful.

“The Three Saints have instructed: The two gods can only be summoned three times in one day.

Each time cannot exceed one hour.

After the daily summons, offerings of sacrifices for sudden deaths and unjust deaths should be made as a gift.

If it is not possible to gather all the offerings for the sudden death or wrongful death at once, you can delay it for three days. However, after three days, you must add another offering for the sudden death or wrongful death.

If the offerings cannot be gathered together, the three souls will be devoured one inch by the two gods first.

When the three souls are devoured, I will also become a spirit medium." Zhou Chang sensed the various instructions passed down by the Three Saints and shared them with Yang Rui.

Yang Rui was stunned for a moment after hearing these words, and then he said, "How could the Three Saints give you such a clear revelation?"

"Is there something wrong with this?" Zhou Chang was also a little confused.

He received instructions from the Three Saints from the altar, and using the Great Heart Pill Sutra, he also discovered another way to utilize the power of the gods of sudden death and wrongful death to a more extreme level.

"The Three Saints will give vague instructions to the younger generation of Duangong disciples to help them offer sacrifices to the ghosts and gods on the altar, which is nothing.

Every Duangong has received instructions from the Three Holy Patriarchs.

But I have never seen anyone who can give such clear instructions as yours, which is almost like helping you do all the things directly. "Yang Rui sighed and looked at Zhou Chang enviously, "It may be that I am short-sighted.

But it’s always a good thing, just do it.”

He turned his gaze to the altar on the ground and said, "Since we have invited the two gods to live in the altar and there is nothing else to do, let's remove the altar.

After raising the altar and performing the ritual, dismantling the altar is also a necessary step.

Otherwise, wandering gods and ghosts will fill your altar, and you will be in trouble."

"it is good."

Zhou Chang nodded.

He squatted down again, chanting the 'closing spell', and reached out to pick up the 'Thunder Commander's' iron seal on the altar.

But at this moment, a scent of incense was blown over by the wind.

Zhou Chang lowered his head and looked at the altar. The two incense sticks in front of the altar had already burned out, and there was no more smoke floating on it.

Where does this scent of incense come from?

His mind raced as he suddenly saw the incense smoke spreading over his altar into a long, fragrant aroma.

The five-colored feasting energy gathered into a round mirror, and the colorful colors in the mirror suddenly turned into darkness.

In the black mirror, a discontinuous voice came out: "Three Saints above... please ask the Grandmaster Fantian to open the mirror...

My fellow disciples, please join me in the altar...

I am in trouble now, I hope my fellow disciples can lend a helping hand!"

"Meishan Fajiao, a disciple of the founder of Fantian, Zhang Wulang, and the 'Hehelei' altar master 'Xiao Zhenming', begs fellow disciples to lend a hand!"

The intermittent sound coming from the mirror made Zhou Chang look surprised for a moment!
Yang Rui, who was standing by, saw Zhou Chang squatting down to remove the altar, but he suddenly stopped midway and looked at the air in front of the altar in surprise. He frowned and asked Zhou Chang, "What happened?!"
