Chapter 376 The Taoist casts spells, the widow invites
There are sayings about ghosts and gods in the world, and there are monks and Taoists who help the secular people to solve their worries and problems, and ask gods to drive away ghosts.
During the war, there were countless corpses hidden in the world, so naturally human life was like grass. However, in a peaceful and prosperous era, almost everyone would invite monks or Taoists to do some tricks to save themselves and complete a mere formality.
In his previous life, Su Ting believed that such things were all illusory. Now that he has traveled through time and has been able to practice, he still thinks that some of them are true... but not all of them are true.
Although there are gods and immortals in this world, not all monks and Taoists in the world have real skills. Of course, there are many people who pretend to be a god or just make up for the numbers, and cheat money after the expiration of the period.
"After that being said, Mr. Su is also a practitioner of Taoism, and his Taoism is now quite profound, but he doesn't have a good understanding of the methods of this lower-level practitioner, which is really not good."
Su Ting's practice has made great progress. In recent years, he has achieved success in his practice and has successively broken through the realm. Not long after, he reached the second level of heaven. After leaving Luoyue County, he condensed his mind and used his magic at will.
Now, not to mention that when the Yang God approaches, he has great magic power and almost has the ability to overturn rivers and seas, destroy mountains and crack the earth.
Such skills are unfathomable, but they are completely unaware of the various ways of casting spells and various worldly rules for practitioners in the next three days.
He had seen Mr. Song explain his doubts to others, and he had also seen Mr. Song draw talismans to give them to others. He could awaken Lu Ya's inheritance, but it was actually because Mr. Song made a thunder talisman.
He had also seen Mr. Song cast spells at the beginning, but Mr. Song was not very good at doing so. He did not have any huge scenes or any spell shining. In fact, it was just like ordinary people drawing talismans. It was just that the talismans were correctly patterned, so it was naturally effective.
How do the Taoist priests from Si Tianjian act now?
"I don't want to join in the Zhou Mansion, but since it's all right in front of me, let's see how this ordinary Taoist did it?"
——
The Taoist priest who took on the matter this time had a shallow Taoist practice and was barely introductory.
By dividing it by the realm of practice, it belongs to the realm of the first level of heaven.
At this level, the body can produce true energy and can wander around the limbs and bones, relax muscles and promote blood circulation, and prolong life, but in fact, even magic cannot be used.
In other aspects, it is no different from ordinary people.
"It's really a charlatan who cheats?"
Su Ting was quite puzzled. He held his chin and drank tea while watching the Taoist priest's behavior.
The Taoist priest was chanting and dancing casually, using cinnabar, dipped in ink, and began to draw talismans.
This is not a talisman, it is just a drawing according to the talisman paper on Taoist scriptures.
This Taoist priest cannot release the true energy in his body, so this talisman paper is no different from that drawn by ordinary people.
Next, the Taoist priest stepped on the bucket and took out the peach wood sword, and sang it.
After a while, the Taoist priest suddenly took a slap on the talisman paper.
Su Ting's eyes also condensed.
"It's weird."
——
The elf came out, looked at the talisman paper, and said, "Why does it seem like there is some movement?"
Su Ting frowned and said, "The talisman paper is obviously ordinary, but his steps seem to be able to really go to the thunder department, so there is a vague power of thunder on this talisman paper. Although it is so subtle that it can be ignored, it can be regarded as a vague effect of exorcising evil spirits. Ordinary lonely ghosts will be a little afraid... It's like a ball of fire rising in the wild, wild wolves and others will avoid it if they see it from afar."
After pausing, Su Ting thought secretly and whispered: "Strange thing, the Taoist priest's steps have many actions and many spells. In fact, they are pretending to be a god and deceive others... But there are a few actions and a few spell casting steps, which are connected together, and it seems that they have really worked. Shangying Lei Division?"
The elf said, "Aren't you the true teaching of the Lei Tribe? You can't even go to the gods of the Lei Tribe, why did an ordinary Taoist priest do it?"
Su Ting couldn't hold back his face and said angrily: "What do you mean that I can't inform the gods of the Thunder Tribe? What kind of person am I? I also need to invite the gods of the Thunder Tribe? I am like a god in the world..."
As he said this, he touched his head and was very puzzled. It seemed that there was no such aspect of casting spells in the Thunder Division he had obtained.
Could it be that this kind of spell casting at the altar is a sub-story trick that the younger Taoist priests have explored?
So the true teachings of the Lei Department do not have these aspects?
Su Ting thought this way and thought it made sense.
However, this kind of magic is also a method explored by ordinary monks. Although some of them pretend to be a god or deceive the people, some of them are really useful.
These things are also very useful if they can be clearly explored.
For example, Mr. Song once used black dog blood to exorcise evil spirits.
This kind of common sense may not be known to many monks.
Because they have achieved success in their practice, they can use magic in everything, so why should they use this kind of black blood?
For example, the methods of drawing talismans such as black dog blood, cinnabar, and ink were actually mostly spread among ordinary practitioners, and most of them were used in the mundane world and in the joys and joys of secular people.
Moreover, there are often various taboos, rules, and taboos in the casting steps, which are not known to monks like Su Ting.
"If you look closely, you can also get some benefits..."
Su Ting was quite interested and was very concerned about the ways these ordinary monks practiced to exorcise evil spirits.
——
After the practice was finished, the Taoist priest was wandering back and forth again.
This time I was completely pretending to be a fool.
But the people from the Zhou Mansion believed it without a doubt and finally gave the sweaty Taoist priest a big red envelope.
"Didn't it mean to be salvation?"
Su Ting wondered: "I saw that during his casting spells, a piece of talisman paper became a bit of evil-removing, but it did not have the effect of being able to be saved... After all, the Taoist priest in the Sitian Supervisory Taoist Temple is also a scam charlatan?"
He was quite puzzled, but after carefully looking at the family members who left Zhou's mansion, he vaguely understood something.
Regardless of whether the matter of salvation is effective or not, it is actually not important.
The underworld will have some rewards and punishments for merits and sins.
However, it is better to soothe people's hearts than to save the dead.
He vaguely understood another aspect of these ghosts and gods.
And at this moment, a Taoist boy came.
"Sun Su, someone sent a letter that stated that it was handed over to you."
"oh?"
Su Ting frowned and said, "I am in Yuecheng, and except Fang Qing, there are no acquaintances. Who is the one who sent the letter?"
The Taoist boy replied: "It's just an ordinary person who claimed to have received two taels of silver. He sent the letter, but his expression was a bit weird."
Su Ting raised his eyebrows and opened the letter.
"Su Shenjun is famous in the Great Zhou Dynasty and is very admired. The little girl is very happy. I hope that at midnight, I will go to the south of the city to enjoy the moon and drink."
There is only this line of words on the letter, no signature or name.
Su Ting was confused and just took out a black leaf from the letter paper, very puzzled.
However, the Taoist boy looked strange and his eyes looked at Su Ting were full of strangeness.
Su Ting glanced at him and said, "Do you recognize this?"
The Taoist boy whispered: "If you guess well, this letter should have been given by a woman from the south of the city."
Su Ting frowned and said, "City South? Woman?"
The Taoist boy said carefully: "That was a romantic widow with a disgrace. Xiaodao heard it by chance. She was also quite famous in Yuecheng. In the wine shop, many men often mentioned it as jokes that joked about others."
After saying that, the Taoist boy glanced at Su Ting, nodded slightly, his expression full of understanding.
Su Ting opened his mouth and was speechless for a moment.
The elf sneered: "How long have you been to Yuecheng? When did you hook up with a romantic widow?"
Su Ting whispered: "What are you saying... I am obviously wronged, and I don't recognize others at all."
The elf said angrily: "If you don't recognize others, why do you send you a letter and ask you to go to watch the moon in the middle of the night?"
When Su Ting heard this, he suddenly said to himself: "I don't know her, but she knows me, and she calls me "Shenjun Su". She is obviously a practitioner... She asked me over in the middle of the night, so she probably won't be the one who can help me."
