Chapter 94 Solution
"No problem!" Gu Chenran responded decisively, and quickly walked to Wen Ling's side and got ready.
Even the grandfather was surprised: "When did Chen Ran know all this? He is so weak, otherwise..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Gu Chenran: "Don't underestimate me, I have learned a lot from following A Ling during this period of time!"
Gu Chenran walked to Wen Ling as he spoke, and in no time, he helped Wen Ling arrange the most basic incense burner and offerings, and then began to grind cinnabar.
It seems that even the technique of grinding cinnabar is very particular.
This time, my grandparents widened their eyes in surprise, but they no longer had any doubts, and there was even a bit more admiration in their eyes.
It’s amazing that you can even learn this!
Wen Ling didn't notice that Gu Chenran inadvertently showed off in front of her grandfather. She was now concentrating on setting up the formation.
Even though this formation was not difficult for her, she was always serious and focused on matters in this regard, and she would not be careless with any simple technique.
She buried nails stained with her fingertip blood in six corners of the locust tree, and used her magic power to draw a golden line in the middle of each nail.
When the last line was stretched, the initial formation was completed, and a hexagram suddenly lit up from the ground.
Wen Ling returned to the altar and drew an intricate talisman using the cinnabar and talisman paper that Gu Chenran had prepared in advance.
The talisman was drawn and floated gently in the air.
Wen Ling injected magic power into the talisman paper. As the magic power was injected, the talisman paper lit up little by little from bottom to top like a charging bar.
Wen Ling stopped only when the entire talisman paper was completely lit up.
She waved her hand lightly, and the talisman paper was stuck to the trunk of the locust tree.
After the talisman paper was pasted on the tree trunk, the entire locust tree suddenly began to twist and struggle, making a hoarse roar.
The sound was like the sound of fingernails scratching on a painted surface, so hoarse and unpleasant that it made people feel like their eardrums were about to burst.
But soon, the light of the talisman paper in the middle connected with the light of the hexagram below.
The entire hexagram seemed to form a kind of restraint, trapping Qiang Liu's twisting and struggling locust tree in the middle of the formation.
Wen Ling took back his hand: "Okay, someone must sit in this position and recite the scriptures next. Who among you will go first?"
The three uncles raised their hands almost at the same time.
The grandfather glanced at his three sons, lifted his robe and sat down in front of the altar. He opened the scripture that Wen Ling had written in advance and said, "I'll go first. Let me, the old man, set an example for you three boys."
Before the three uncles could stop him, my grandfather had already sat down and started chanting.
As he recited the scriptures, a gray figure slowly emerged from the big locust tree in the middle. Its face could not be seen clearly, but it was clear that it should be a ghost trapped in the big locust tree.
The gray figure was originally dark in color, but slowly turned white in the scriptures.
Finally, it ascended into the air, and a door to rebirth gradually appeared in the sky.
As soon as the ghost saw the door to the afterlife, he went in without any hesitation, without even turning his head, for fear that the door would disappear in the next second.
When the ghost's color gradually turned white, my grandfather frowned slightly, obviously feeling uncomfortable.
But it was bearable. My grandfather gritted his teeth and even did not change the speed of reciting the scriptures.
The dead appeared one after another, their colors changed fast or slow, and finally they all passed through the gate to the afterlife smoothly.
Some of the souls would stop for a moment after the color turned back to white, and bow to express their gratitude to the grandfather.
When my grandfather recited the scripture for the ninth time, big beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead and even flowed into his eyes.
Uncle Wang next to him hurried forward to help wipe off the sweat.
Wen Ling reminded: "If you feel you can't bear it anymore, stop and change people after you finish reading the scripture."
It took more than half an hour to finish reciting the scriptures six times. It was not easy to persist for so long on the first recitation.
But my grandfather shook his head, indicating that he could still hold on.
Finally, he stopped after reciting it for the ninth time. He was sweating, his mouth was dry, and his throat was so hoarse that he couldn't speak.
My uncle immediately took over my grandfather's position.
When my grandfather left the altar, he even needed Uncle Wang's support.
It seems that Wen Ling was right. It is not an easy task for them to liberate all the souls in the locust tree, but now that they have started, there is no reason to stop.
Gu Chenran saw that his grandparents were beginning to pray for the deceased, so he told them to leave: "Grandfather, I think we won't be needed here for a while, and you still have things to do, so we'll leave first and won't disturb you, or you'll have to distract yourself from receiving us."
Grandfather did not try to be brave. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said gratefully, "Chen Ran, Ling girl, you have helped us so much. I won't say anything else.
I have no words to express my gratitude for your kindness. Anyway, after this incident, my grandparents' family will be under the command of Ling Yatou. No matter what Ling Yatou proposes, we will not refuse! ”
This promise is even without any preconditions, which shows how heavy it is.
Wen Ling smiled and said, "That's not necessary. Actually, helping you solve the problem of the unlucky ghost is also a merit for me.
I should be able to get a lot of merit points this time, which is the best reward for me.
Gold, silver, fame and fortune are all mundane things to me. Only merit is the most important to me, because it can improve my cultivation. ”
Grandfather insisted: "Don't feel pressured, Ling girl. Just do whatever you like. We will remember your kindness and be your strongest support!"
Wen Ling felt warm in her heart until she left the Wang family.
When Gu Chenran came to the Wang family, everyone surrounded him.
Now when leaving, everyone surrounded Wen Ling and forgot about Prince Gu Chenran, their own grandson.
Fortunately, Gu Chenran has gotten used to it.
I guess in the eyes of Wen Ling's loyal "believers", he is at most a leg pendant of Wen Ling.
On the way back to the palace, Gu Chenran asked, "You must be tired after working all night. Grandfather's family is too busy, and I'm embarrassed to ask them to prepare dinner. What do you want for dinner? I'll ask Lu Jian to go back and make arrangements in advance."
After asking, Wen Ling didn't respond for a long time. Usually, she was the most active when it came to eating.
Gu Chenran looked over and found that Wen Ling had fallen asleep with his head leaning against the carriage.
Gu Chenran was speechless.
He said he knew his limits and wouldn't use up all his magic power, but now he has run out of magic power and fallen asleep!
