Kill That Man
Chapter 7 Master Tells A Ghost Story
"Master, of course I"m your disciple." Li Huaide mutters.
"Then listen to me, tomorrow marry the Zhao family girl, if anything goes wrong, I will kick you out of Masters Sect. Feiyun Sect"s reputation cannot suffer a trace of damage. My words, do you understand?"
Li Huaide bows his head in frustration.
"Go back and prepare for tomorrow"s affair. If you are still thinking of your Junior sister, you can take care of her in the future." Master Daoist w.a.n.g says gently.
Li Huaide"s voice is choked with emotion, and he answers, "Yes, Master!"
Walking out of the Yu house with heavy steps, Li Huaide"s heart is depressed. Originally being selected by Master Daoist w.a.n.g as a disciple, he was very happy. In Feiyun Sect, learning the dao law, he devotes himself wholeheartedly to practicing daoism.
He doesn"t want to offend Master and lose the dao path, he also doesn"t want to defy his Master and parents, but his heart is unable to put down Qing Yao, he wants to be with her forever.
But the world denies his wish.
Under the dual pressure of his Master and parents, he had to withdraw from his engagement with Yu Qing Yao, and marry into a family that everyone thinks is very good. Now the clansmen all praise Master Daoist w.a.n.g as a great Master, saying that he"s too good to his disciple, and he can"t say anything.
Li Huaide feels like he"s really going to miss marrying Yu Qing Yao in this lifetime, he looks up at the sky and sighs.
"How many people have been pressured by filial piety since ancient times? How many good marriage ties have been broken up?" Li Huaide thought.
Hearing Li Huaide leave, Yu Qing Yao"s mind becomes more alert. She instinctively felt that Master Daoist w.a.n.g harbors evil intentions, but now Master Daoist w.a.n.g is her life saving benefactor, he did not make any obvious mistakes, saying bad words about him, saying that he"s a bad person, she feels bad in her heart.
Yu Qing Yao makes up her mind to show more filial respect to her Master. If Master always treats herself like this, then she"ll truly regard him as a Master and father. If he has a bad mind about her, then she can cure him.
Defend against those with evil intentions by treating them with a tolerant heart. This is the motto of a white lotus. Although Yu Qing Yao is not a true white lotus, she has always done so.
When the water was boiling, Yu Qing Yao found a blue and white thick porcelain pot, filling it with water, she smiles and carries it into the room, and says, "Master, the water is done. Unfortunately, disciple has no good tea to entertain you."
Master Daoist w.a.n.g saw her with a smile on her face, and said with a smile: "No matter!"
Yu Qing Yao found a cup at home, washed it carefully, and poured water for Master.
Master Daoist w.a.n.g takes a sip, with a smile he says: "The water here is good."
The Li Family village"s water is slightly sweet, its really true that a farmers mountain spring is slightly sweet.
Yu Qing Yao sits at an angle from Master, holding her cheeks, she asks curiously, "Master, have you ever seen a demon?"
Master Daoist w.a.n.g is worried, not knowing what to talk about to the young girl, he smiles: "Of course, my Feiyun Sect guards the whole city of Baishan, as long as there is a demon or ghost in the territory, we"ll send people to get rid of it."
"Wow, our Feiyun Sect is so amazing!" Yu Qing Yao says in a slightly exaggerated tone.
Master Daoist w.a.n.g is idle, and he also wants his relationship with Yu Qing Yao to be closer, so he tells a story about how he went to bechop demons and banish ghosts.
"The villager"s don"t know about it, it was resurrected from death, it was actually a *soul possession. Speaking of that, I have truly seen it. It was twenty-five years ago, in Zai Xia w.a.n.g Village. An old man in the village died, and at night, his family found four people to guard his coffin."
Yu Qing Yao pretends to look afraid. In fact, shes read similar stories on the Internet.
She was wondering, d.a.m.n, twenty-five years ago? How old is he this year? Could it be that he looks like an uncle, and he"s actually an Uncle?
"In the middle of the night, the four guardsmen were bored and gathered around to drink and gamble. Suddenly, a cat slips in through the dog hole. When the cat pa.s.ses by the body, the old man suddenly moves."
Yu Qing Yao loudly screams in fright, nervously asking: "Master, why did the corpse move?"
Master Daoist w.a.n.g explains: "An evil thing attached to the body. Cats and dogs often run around in the wild, accidentally wandering around they bring in evil things back home. Dogs are better, usually staying at home at night. Cats go around at night, and evil things are easily attached to it. So, 9 out of 10 cases are caused by cats pa.s.sing by dead bodies. Often it happens in the middle of the night, and during the day they don"t move."
Yu Qing Yao cried "oh", and asked: "Master, what are evil things?"
Master Daoist w.a.n.g smiles and says: "In rural countrysides evil things usually refer to residual souls. This soul is the residual soul of a beast after death, its soul has not yet dispersed, children unknowingly come across these evil things, they attach to their body, meeting people they will bite, their strength is several times that of mortals, very painful, encountering ordinary people they usually become victims that are killed."
Yu Qing Yao understands the principles of corpse possession, then asks: "Master, what happened to the old man after his corpse was possessed?"
"Oh, before the coffin was nailed that night, the corpse got up on its own, and smelling a human scent, it went over. The man sitting opposite was counting his money and failed to give an early warning. The corpse attacked the man who had his back facing him. The man"s ribs were broken and his neck was bitten out of a large gash. He died on the spot.
The other three men escaped from the house, and one of the most vigilant men locked the door after going out. They called everyone, blocking the door of the house, and came to Feiyun Sect to invite me. When I arrived, the corpse was in the house, like a disorderly beast. The furniture in the house was in tatters. I observed its movements, it was the residual soul of a wolf."
"Master, what happened next? How did you get rid of it?" Yu Qing Yao couldn"t help asking curiously.
Master Daoist w.a.n.g shows a slight smile, saying: "This small evil thing, an exorcist spell is enough. I opened the window, and the wolf"s soul was extinguished. When the corpse loses its support from the evil spirit, naturally it returns to its original state."
"Ah? Master is amazing!" Yu Qing Yao is like a fan seeing her idol.
Master Daoist w.a.n.g is secretly happy in his heart. This little girl is very gullible ah, more chatting, more care. I am her Master, and also her life-saving benefactor, after three or five years, won"t she be dead set on listening to me?
Master Daoist w.a.n.g has no intention of moving his hand on Yu Qing Yao now. He has a whole plan, and it would be a pity to eat Yu Qing Yao now. Raise her for a few years, and when her cultivation deepens, the benefits will be big.
He is now at the peak of the 8th layer of the Foundation Building realm, in another ten years, its expected that his Foundation realm will be successful, at that time with Yu Qing Yao"s natural heavenly qualities, she will at least have a high level Qi realm. At that time, eating Yu Qing Yao, and using her pure yin qi to impact the Jindan realm, it will maximize the benefits.
Until then, Master Daoist w.a.n.g will play the role of a good Master and a good father in front of Yu Qing Yao.
"Master, what am I going to learn?"
"To begin learning Daoism, one must read the Daoist scriptures, the other is to raise and nourish qi, and the third is to learn some martial arts for body protection."
"What can I learn now?"
"You want to learn now?"
"Yeah! I want to be as good as Master as soon as possible."
Master Daoist w.a.n.g laughs heartily, saying: "Very good, I"ll first teach you the way to guide your qi, and the Daoist breathing method."
After Master Daoist w.a.n.g said this, he word for word teaches Yu Qing Yao a set of heart methods.
This heart method is called the Heart Law, which is the fundamental law of Feiyun Sect. Master Daoist w.a.n.g first teaches the introductory heart method. The introductory heart law has just over 800 words.

Corpse Possession- 诈尸 zhà shī -Superst.i.tion legend referring to the strange phenomenon of a dead man"s body suddenly moving. The ancients folks said that when people die, sometimes there is still a breath left in their chest. If they are met by cats, dogs and mice, (who carry evil residual spirits) they will be resurrected. But this breath does not support life at all, only like a resurrected corpse beast. In the end, the breath will be exhausted, it will fall to the ground and then it is completely dead. Zha shi is different from resurrection, a kind of disorderly state, but also different from borrowing the body to return the soul. At first I thought they were talking bout zombies but its different, literally translates to swindling corpse. Credits to Baidu.
