As curious as he was, he still had some concerns, mainly about the organization that Zhong Liuchuan had talked about. If he left and they sent people of the same level as last time, Zhong Liuchuan could not cope with it. It would be a big trouble.
“Wait a minute,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
He called Zhong Liuchuan and asked him to come to the clinic. Once he arrived, w.a.n.g Yao told him about the situation and his concerns.
“Mr. w.a.n.g, you can be rest a.s.sured that this organization has a process,” Zhong Liuchuan said. “Since such a powerful trump card killer failed, it indicates that the difficulty of the task has increased. They will need to re-evaluate it, which requires a process. So, they will not send people again in the short term.”
“How long is the short term?” w.a.n.g Yao asked.
“One month,” Zhong Liuchuan said.
“Well, I need to leave for about one week, so I will leave the matters here to you,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“I will manage it, sir,” Zhong Liuchuan said.
w.a.n.g Yao handed him a book. “You can read this.”
“Is this a medical book?” Zhong Liuchuan wasn’t sure what to think of the book. He wanted to learn kung fu, not medical skills.
“The key points are the meridians and acupuncture points on the human body,” w.a.n.g Yao said. “You need to understand and keep these things in your mind. If you want to learn kung fu, you must first understand the body.”
“OK, sir,” Zhong Liuchuan said.
w.a.n.g Yao turned to Miao Sanding, who was anxiously waiting, “I will go home to tell them I’m leaving. We will leave immediately after.”
“Oh, thank you,” Miao Sanding replied.
After closing the clinic, w.a.n.g Yao returned home and talked briefly with his parents.
“Will you go far?” his mother asked.
“Yes, it is on one of my friend’s invitation, and I want to take a look over there,” w.a.n.g Yao said. “While I’m gone, you and my dad should avoid going out. If you have something to deal with, wait for me to return.”
“Oh, OK, we will,” his mother said.
After speaking with his family, w.a.n.g Yao and Miao Sanding headed to Dao. Once there, they took a plane to Hongzhou Province.
…
In the village with the ancient tomb in Hongzhou Province…
In the early morning, the Taoist priests from Longhu Mountain got up early to practice Kung Fu in the yard. The speed was very slow, and their gestures were a bit weird.
What kind of boxing is that? Liu Sifang wondered.
“Sir, breakfast is ready.” The people in the mountain village were very kind and hospitable. People in Hongzhou Province were very respectful toward the Longhu Taoist priests.
After breakfast, the three Taoist priests carefully checked the items they carried with them. After confirming that there was no problem, they were ready to go up the mountain. Liu Sifang followed them.
“You don’t need to go with us,” the head priest said.
That actually made Liu Sifang very happy. He didn’t want to go. The place had left a deep shadow in his heart. However, he instantly thought of his brother.
“Uncle, I won’t go up the mountain,” he said. “I’ll just stay at the foot it. If you need anything, call me.”
“Oh, okay.” The old man smiled.
He looked at Liu Sifang in a different way. He was able to see it before. This young man was actually very afraid of the ancient tomb, which was understandable. After all, almost everyone was afraid of that kind of thing. Yet, he dared to face it and do what he could. It was very rare.
“Take these two amulets and put them on your chest,” the head priest said as he took two amulets from his pocket. “As long as you are not too close to it, there will be no problem.”
“Thank you, uncle,” Liu Sifang said.
The group set off and quickly arrived at the foothills. The priest rechecked the array. The papers were still there. Once they were up the mountain, the checked the spells around the work shed. There were also still there, but they had turned a yellow color. Although it had only been one night, the papers appeared to be hundreds of years old.
“Be careful,” the head priest said.
“Yes, Master,” the other priests quickly responded.
The three priests carefully approached the work shed. One of the priests took out a piece of paper and posted it outside the work shed. The paper immediately burned and turned into ashes.
The head priest painted a strange spell in the air before entering the work shed first. The shed was still the same, but the Taoist priest who had come before had disappeared.
In the tomb, the statue of the evil spirit was still standing there quietly.
“How could this be?!” The head priest frowned.
“Master, there is blood.” A priest pointed to the tomb.
There was a line of blood that had reached the door and was cut off by the tomb.
“The evil spirits are in the way and under the protection of King Kong,” The head Taoist did not rush to the grave. Instead, he quietly looked at the doors on both sides of the tomb.
Thud!
The heavy stone tomb door seemed to move. A slight seam appeared.
The priests bells rang. Outside the shed, the eight sheets of paper in eight directions burned up and turned into ashes.
A hand stretched out from behind the tomb.
“That is?!” The two younger priests were shocked. “How can this be?!”
Under the mountain, Liu Sifang smoked cigarettes and paced back and forth, looking up at the mountains from time to time.
Liu Sifang, you are a big fool. Will you die if you say less? The last one who came was an apprentice, but this time it is Master. There should be no problem.
He reached out his hands to touch the two spells on his chest.
“Buddha, bless me. Bodhisattva, bless me. G.o.d, bless me…”
In the shed, behind the tomb door, half of an arm stretched out. The arm was wrapped in a Taoist robe. It was the same as the three priests’ robes outside, but it had a few drops of blood on it.
“B-brother?!”
“Oh, the most worrying thing is still happening,” the head Taoist whispered.
He waved his hand. A piece of paper flew out. It was like a flying knife. It fell accurately onto the extended arm. The paper broke and burned. The arm stopped. It was as if it was fixed maintaining the action of pus.h.i.+ng the tomb door from inside.
Above the tomb, on the left side, there was a crack in the statue of the King Kong with no reason.
“We can’t let him out.” The head priest’s facial expression suddenly changed.
“What?!”
A few papers flew out one by one, settling at the four corners of the tomb door. They immediately burned up.
The evil spirits were in the way. They were blocking the people outside. Under the protection of King Kong, the evil inside was controlled. It had no way to come out.
The tomb door could only be opened from the inside. According to the principle, the things inside should not have awoken.
The head Taoist instantly knew what happened.
The tomb door moved again. There seemed to be a deep breathing sound inside. There was also a crack in the statue on the right side.
“Can’t it be sealed?” a priest asked.
The tomb door was pushed open about 3 inches wide. A face was visible behind the gap. It had a pair of blood red eyes.
“Ah!
“d.a.m.n it!” Hearing the scream, Liu Sifang, under the mountain, threw down the cigarette and ran. After taking a few steps, he stopped and looked back at the mountain. No one was coming down.
He thought, The last time just one person was defeated. This time, did three of them fail?
His body was shaking. He was afraid. He bit his lip and decided to wait.
In the shed, a priest fell to the ground and trembled like he was being electrocuted.
“Wake up!” The head Taoist untied the bell at the waist and pressed it on the head of the apprentice.
The downed priest stopped shaking. His eyes quickly became clear again.
“Concentric Mantra!” the head priest shouted. “It seems I have to ask brother to come over.”
He quickly pulled out one of the items from his bag. It was a bronze mirror with complicated patterns and symbols.
He turned the bronze mirror in his hand over. Immediately, a beam of light emerged from it. Through the gap of the tomb door, it directly hit the back of the figure behind the door. The vaguely visible figure quickly disappeared.
The head Taoist rushed down the tomb and re-sealed the opened door with lightning-like speed. He pulled out a few amulets to put on it. Each one he put on it burned. When he stuck the 12th amulet on, it finally stopped burning.
His disciple, who had just woken up, came down to help. The mentor and disciple stuck 998 amulets on the tomb.
