Chapter 154: Shi Gen Formation, finally meeting the little girl!
Early the next morning, Lin Ran took Shangui's money and went to the strange old man's house again.
After being reminded by Lin Ran last time, the formation in front of his house had obviously changed.
The strange old man is still very diligent and has improved the Life-nurturing Formation into the Shake-Gen Formation.
Gen is one of the Eight Trigrams and represents the mountain.
In the Taoist tradition, the mountain is a very special existence, which is both pure yang and yin.
It is said that there are evil spirits in the mountains, and the Shigen Formation is one of the Taoist methods to deal with mountain ghosts.
He chose a place close to mountains and rivers because it was a place where yin energy gathered.
The previous life-nurturing formation was just like pulling out the Yin Dou.
It is a formation that sucks out the Yin Qi contained in the ground.
Let the patient live on the center of the formation, and the Yin Qi will gather on the patient's body.
If the mountain ghost wants to be evil and feels this powerful Yin Qi, he will think that a more powerful colleague has taken a fancy to this body, and will leave wisely.
The current formation is the final form of the life-nurturing formation.
Lin Ran secretly admired him. He was indeed an old trickster. He could summarize it with just a little guidance.
The strange old man's door was still closed, so Lin Ran stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Who?"
This time there was no need for a secret code. Lin Ran smiled and said, "Old sir, I'm here to find you."
Hearing Lin Ran's voice, the strange old man opened the wooden door neatly. His gloomy face looked full of expectation, but also a sense of distrust.
"You're here?" He looked at Lin Ran suspiciously and asked, "Did you find the Great Yin Coin so quickly?"
Lin Ran shook his head: "No."
The strange old man's expression instantly became more gloomy: "You didn't find it? Then why did you come to my house? I won't let you see my granddaughter, the yang energy in you will conflict with her!"
He turned around and wanted to close the door, but Lin Ran pushed the door.
According to the strange old man's understanding, the reason why his granddaughter can survive now depends entirely on the Yin Qi.
If yang energy enters the body, it will inevitably affect the yin energy in the granddaughter's body, and the mountain ghost will take advantage of it.
Lin Ran was asked to find the Great Yin Coin because this coin was full of Yin energy and could temporarily suppress Lin Ran's Yang energy.
Lin Ran smiled and said, "Old sir, although I didn't find the Great Yin Coin, I did find a more valuable thing."
As he spoke, he took out the red cloth and showed the victory-weary coin in front of the strange old man.
The strange old man was full of disdain at first. He took the red cloth with a curse and said, "I won't let you get close to my granddaughter without the big Yin coins!"
Lin Ran didn't say anything. He believed that the strange old man would understand naturally when he saw the coin.
Slowly opening the red cloth, the victory-weary coin appeared in front of the strange old man.
The strange old man's initial anger turned into a hint of surprise.
"Could this be the mountain ghost spending money?"
The strange old man's face was full of disbelief, and his hands were trembling!
"Yes, this is exactly what the mountain ghosts of Bagua Mountain spend money on!" Lin Ran responded with a smile.
How could the Yin Zhao know the rumors about Bagua Mountain? If the formation he arranged was only to ward off evil spirits for a short period of time, the victory-weary coin in his hand would be a magic weapon to exorcise evil spirits.
What kind of monsters and monsters have to retreat obediently when they encounter a mountain ghost consecrated by the ancestor of Bagua Mountain and spend money!
The strange old man's only remaining eye reflected light, and he asked in surprise: "Little brother, where did you get this Victory Coin?"
He is truly a professional native!
Just by looking at it, one could tell that the Weisheng Coin in front of him was not a modern product that Lin Ran had consecrated at other Taoist temples, but was clearly from the early Ming Dynasty.
"I begged this from other native masters, and it took a lot of effort to get it." Lin Ran made up a reason casually.
It turns out that a colleague dug it out, so that makes sense.
Touching the mountain ghost in his hand to spend money, the strange old man sighed with emotion and said in a muttered tone: "I didn't expect that I would still be able to see the Shengwei coin left by my ancestor in my lifetime."
Taoist tradition emphasizes opportunity and nothing can be forced.
Since all the ancestor's mountain ghost money fell into Lin Ran's hands, it proved that he was the one he was destined for.
The strange old man also changed his attitude and seemed much more respectful.
"Little brother, please come inside." This time, the strange old man not only did not block the door, but also made an invitation gesture.
The strange old man's house was still damp, and Lin Ran couldn't help but frown.
Even if you are not sick, living in such a dark and humid environment for a long time will cause you to get sick!
Of course, not all local masters live like this. Many people buy big houses and live in the city after making money.
He can live in front of the mountain like a strange old man, but does not enjoy the benefits brought by digging for cultural relics. It is most appropriate to call him a strange old man!
The strange old man poured him a glass of water again, this time adding sugar to the water, showing his hospitality.
He sat in front of Lin Ran and said with a smile, "Have you asked me your name yet?"
"I'm Lin Ran."
"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Lin. I'm Lu Yingjie, the 17th generation direct disciple of Bagua Mountain. I've met Fellow Daoist Lin." The strange old man said with his fists clasped.
The strange old man has never told his name to other people in the village, and rarely interacts with others. When he goes out to buy rice and vegetables, he will just talk to each other in a few words.
That's why he was called a strange old man by the villagers.
"I've met Fellow Daoist Lu." Lin Ran also clasped his fists to show courtesy.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, if you can find the victory-wearing coin consecrated by our ancestor, you are naturally destined to be here. If you can cure my granddaughter's disease, I will definitely give you a great opportunity!" Lu Yingjie cupped his fists and bowed, looking very solemn.
Lin Ran quickly helped him up and said, "It is my duty to treat illnesses and save people. Sir, there is no need to be so generous."
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Lin. Although I, Lu Yingjie, have a fiery personality, I am true to my word. If I promise you the opportunity, I will definitely give it to Fellow Daoist, and please save my granddaughter's life!"
After Lu Yingjie finished speaking, his eyes were full of expectation.
From their sect's point of view, everyone has their own fate when they are born. Whether it is poverty or wealth, life or death, or disaster, they all have their own destiny.
He lamented the misfortune of his granddaughter, but was unwilling to accept it and wanted to change her fate against fate.
He also knew that he was trying to help his granddaughter, and instead of getting better during this period, his granddaughter's condition worsened.
Neither the doctor in the village nor the doctor in the city could diagnose his granddaughter's condition and could only prescribe medicine for him to go home for recuperation.
In anger, he built a life-supporting formation, hoping to help his granddaughter tide over the difficulties.
As time passed, his temper became more erratic and he became more distrustful of people.
He is waiting for an opportunity.
The opportunity to save his granddaughter was the result of his fortune telling.
Today he finally got what he had been waiting for!
Lu Yingjie already regarded Lin Ran as a God-sent person, so he seemed particularly respectful.
Seeing Lin Ran nodding, he was unambiguous and said anxiously: "Fellow Daoist Lao Lin! Please come with me!"
Go through the living room and come to the bedroom inside.
There were no windows in the dark bedroom, and only the girl's coughing could be heard.
"Ahem, grandpa..."
Hearing the sound of the door opening, the girl softly called her grandpa.
"Ying'er, I've brought someone to treat you!" Lu Yingjie pressed the switch in the dim light.
Lin Ran finally saw the little girl lying on the bed, wrapped tightly!
