Chapter 167 Nightmare Ghost

Startled for a moment, he clapped his hands, "That's right! I've woken up several times in the middle of the night because I almost suffocated in my dreams! I can often feel the sea water flooding my mouth and nose! Miss Feng, what on earth has possessed me? Is it a water ghost?"

“Not like, yet very similar.”

Chen Xiaodao tilted his head, his mind becoming more and more confused. Finally, he had no choice but to look at Feng Zhibai, hoping that she could give an answer.

Lao Mi Tou and Ma Zichun also looked at her.

Being looked at by so many eyes at once, Feng Zhibai felt a little flattered and hugged herself pretentiously: "Hey, don't stare at me like that. I'm still a little girl, so shy."

"Okay, hurry up and reveal the secret, isn't it disgusting?"

Chen Xiaodao clenched his fists and felt disgusted by her.

Staring at him resentfully, Feng Zhibai finally organized his words and said softly, "The one haunting this old man isn't some dirty creature, but a demon, a nightmare."

Ma Zhang didn't care what Feng Zhibai called him, as long as he could survive.

"nightmare?"

Several people once again uttered a chorus of surprise.

Feng Zhibai nodded, his hands hanging at his sides, and began to explain calmly: "Nightmare can be called a nightmare ghost. It is not a ghost, but a spirit. Taiping Guangji records that the nightmare ghost is a thousand-year-old rat spirit from Handan. It wears a green shirt and holds a five or six-inch long tablet. The nightmare ghost bows to the sleeping person to induce nightmares. After playing tricks on three thousand people, the nightmare ghost will transform into a raccoon dog. However, the nightmare ghost does not harm people, it only causes nightmares."

He raised his finger. "So, besides the nightmare ghost, there's something else that comes into your dreams every night. This thing is the one that left the corpse oil."

His eyes narrowed, a dangerous glint emanating from them: "Old man, are you hiding something?"

At this moment, Ma Zhang was glared at by her sharp eyes and immediately waved his hands in panic: "I didn't lie! Miss Feng, everything I said just now is true! I didn't lie to you, and I didn't hide anything!"

He raised his hand and said, "I can swear that if I lied to you, I will be struck by lightning and die miserably!"

He looked very flustered, but his eyes were firm when he spoke and swore.

It can be seen that he did not lie.

"Grandma, I think it's unlikely that he's lying. After all, he's almost Barbie Q."

When a man is about to die, his words are good.

Ma Zhang clutched the quilt, about to burst into tears: "Miss Feng, I really am not hiding anything from you! I am in this state, how could I possibly joke with my own life!"

"Yeah, Feng girl, Mr. Ma is already like this, there's no way he can fool us. What's important now is to see what to do."

Old Mi Tou felt a little reluctant and tried to persuade Feng Zhibai.

Ma Zhang is still a human life after all.

It's okay if he's not dead in front of me, but it would be so scary if he were to die in front of me.

Feng Zhibai rubbed his wrist. Hearing everyone trying to excuse Ma Zhang, he didn't dwell on it any further. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm not a heartless person. If I promised to help you, I will definitely help you to the end."

Pulling up the hem of her skirt, she revealed a pair of loose wide-leg pants underneath.

Feng Zhibai reached out and took out a handful of aged melon seeds from his trouser pocket.

"Go to sleep as usual tonight. The nightmare ghost has a scepter in its hand. If it raises the scepter towards you, hand the melon seeds to it."

Chen Xiaodao leaned back and was shocked to see that she was wearing wide-leg pants under her skirt, and that she could even take out melon seeds from the pants.

"Oh my god, do you always carry sunflower seeds with you when you go out?"

Ma Zhang held it in front of Feng Zhibai with both hands.

She placed the melon seeds in Ma Zhang's hand and raised her brows in delight: "How could I not prepare more of something so delicious?"

Lao Mi pinched a few seeds on his head and said, "Why give melon seeds to that nightmare ghost? Could it be that he likes to eat melon seeds too?"

"Yes, Ms. Feng, why should I give it melon seeds? Will giving it melon seeds stop me from having nightmares?"

Coming back to look at the two of them, Feng Zhibai complained lightly.

"You all said it likes to eat melon seeds, so why are you asking me?"

Spreading her hands, she threw a few sunflower seeds she had picked into her mouth. "The sunflower seeds are for the nightmare ghost to eat. When the time comes, the nightmare ghost will stretch out its hands to catch the sunflower seeds, and the sceptre in its hands will fall to the ground. When you see this, you should go forward and pick up the sceptre and hide it. The nightmare ghost will get anxious when it can't find the sceptre after eating the sunflower seeds. At this time, you should take out the sceptre and hit it on the head! The nightmare ghost won't hurt people. Once it is hit, it will leave in anger and never appear in your dreams again. Then your nightmare will be over."

"Is it so magical?"

Listening to Feng Zhibai's talk about nightmare ghosts, Ma Zhang looked incredulous.

It's like listening to a story.

Chen Xiaodao leaned against the corner of the bed and chuckled softly, "There's nothing strange in this world. Do you really think that today's society only advocates the supremacy of science?"

The end of science is metaphysics.

Xuan is the great way of the world.

We must pay attention to both science and metaphysics.

Only by combining science and metaphysics can one achieve the great way.

Feng Zhibai hooked his slender fingers and spat the melon seed shells in his mouth into the trash can.

"Besides that, the unknown creature that left you with the water corpse oil must have also entered your dream. After you drive away the nightmare ghost, that thing will surely return as promised. To find out who it is, after midnight, I, Xiaodao, and I will enter your dream together to help you escape the clutches of that unknown creature."

When Ma Zichun heard that Feng Zhibai and Chen Xiaodao could enter dreams, he immediately asked, "Can you enter my dad's dream?"

He spoke a little anxiously.

Several people were attracted to look at him.

Chen Xiaodao nodded first, then said calmly, "Of course. We in Taoism have a talisman called the Leaping Dream Talisman. The head of this talisman is the Three Star Gods, and the heart of the talisman is a horse. If you stick the Leaping Dream Talisman on your chest, you will be able to leap in your dreams, and naturally you can also enter other people's dreams."

The top of a Taoist talisman is the talisman head, the middle is the most important talisman core, followed by the main talisman, talisman belly, and talisman foot.

There are many types of talisman heads, but most of them are imperial decrees, three hooks, thunder orders, etc.

The edict is drawn in the shape of an edict.

The three hooks represent the Three Pure Ones, namely, the Lord of Daode, the Lord of Yuanshi, and the Lord of Lingbao.

The method of painting Lei Ling is called Lei Ling.

The head of the leaping dream-making talisman mentioned by Chen Xiaodao is the Santai Star God.

They are the upper stage Xujing Kaide Star Lord, the middle stage Liuchun Sikong Star Lord, and the lower stage Qusheng Sulu Star Lord.

There is another more common note head.

It is similar to a triangle, but with one less horizontal line at the bottom, a circle at the top, and circles on the left and right sides. These are the three generals of thunder, fire, and wind.

There are many schools of talismans, and the ways of drawing talisman heads are also different.

But the effects are similar, the only difference is the level of effectiveness.

"What's wrong? Master Ma, do you seem surprised to hear that Yatou and Xiaodao are going to enter the dream?"

Old Mi Tou was sitting on another hospital bed and was keenly aware of Ma Zichun's nervousness.

He quickly shook his head. "No, I'm just curious. I can actually enter dreams. Is there anything I should be aware of when entering dreams? Is it dangerous?"

His smile returned to him and he asked Feng Zhibai and Chen Xiaodao.

Feng Zhibai didn't answer immediately. Instead, he hammered his legs and sat down on the stool beside the bed. After a while, he smiled and replied, "To enter a dream, you need to prepare a chicken and three incense sticks. The chicken's beak should be wrapped with red cloth. The three incense sticks need to be lit after I and Xiaodao enter a dream. Remember, the incense sticks must be lit one by one, and they cannot be interrupted in the middle!"

"I and Xiaodao have only three sticks of incense left to sleep. Once the incense burns out, unless we return to our original point, we will be trapped in the dream forever. And the dreamer will never wake up. If the three sticks of incense are about to burn out and we haven't returned, you must tear the red cloth from the chicken's beak and make it crow by any means necessary."

The crowing of the cock heralds the dawn of the day and the rise of the sun.

When all evil spirits hear the rooster crow, their first reaction is to leave quickly when the day breaks.

The reason why Feng Zhibai asked Lao Mi Tou to make the rooster crow no matter what was because he was afraid that the ghost would be difficult to get rid of.

Chen Xiaodao leaned aside and was suddenly confused when he heard Feng Zhibai's complicated words.

If it is just a nightmare ghost, they don't actually need to appear in the dream. They just need to knock on the dreamer's head and shout at the dreamer to go away.

As for the unknown creature or ghost in the dream, you just need to stand at the head of the bed and stare at it, use Bagua to shock Ma Zhang, and then use Bagua to suck that thing out of the body.

There is absolutely no need to make it so complicated.

But grandma, using both the soul-returning incense and the chicken is a bit of an overreaction and a bit redundant.

"Actually, I..."

"We've almost finished chatting. It's getting late and I'm hungry."

Before Chen Xiaodao could finish, Feng Zhibai interrupted him.

He was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized that she was probably planning something, otherwise how could the old lady, who was so afraid of trouble, go to so much trouble to do these things?

"I'm a little hungry too."

Old Mi observed everything and stood up in time, rubbing his belly and smiling: "Let's go downstairs to eat, Mr. Ma, you stay here and take care of Mr. Ma. We will go downstairs to eat first and buy a chicken on the street."

Ma Zichun hummed, his attitude unusually calm.

"Well, okay, then Mr. Mi, you guys go first. Thank you for your hard work."

"It's okay, we'll go first."

Putting his hands behind his back, he waved at Feng Zhibai and Chen Xiaodao with a smile: "Let's go, let's eat."

Feng Zhibai yawned, and his stomach growled in agreement.

Touching her flat belly, she said with melancholy: "I'm crying from hunger, hurry up."

Chen Xiaodao was the last to leave. Before leaving, he looked back at Ma Zichun and Ma Zhang.

The atmosphere seemed different from when I came in just now.

"Stop looking and let's go."

Seeing that he was still looking back, Lao Mitou pulled him away.

The three of them walked all the way to the hospital gate.

There are many restaurants on the surrounding streets, and the facilities are very complete.

They chose a noodle restaurant that was not too far away and not crowded, and then the three of them sat down next to each other.

It wasn't until the big bowl of noodles arrived that Chen Xiaodao reacted.

"There's something wrong with that Ma Zichun!"

"Shu——"

As he sipped his noodles, Feng Zhibai nonchalantly raised his head and said, "Yeah, you just realized it?"

Old Mitou stirred the noodles in the bowl and picked a vegetable to put on the noodles: "You are usually so smart, why are you so stupid now?"
