Jinguang Temple Chapter 13: Grievances (1)
(13)
In the corner under the eaves of the verandah outside the house, Yu Wenlei was controlled by Qiu An, gradually losing breath, and his consciousness began to blur, he struggled to raise his arm, but he felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, unable to move the slightest.
At the last moment when he fainted, Zixuan seemed to shout in his mind: "Yu Wenlei, you must hold on!" Qiu An smiled cruelly: "This time I will see how you escape, I want to suck your aura dry!" ”
Qiu An was proud, and suddenly a rattan stretched out from Yu Wenlei's buckled arm, and the rattan wrapped around his neck as fast as the wind, Qiu An was shocked, and was just about to reach out and tear it, but between the lightning and flint, the rattan pulled and threw Qiu An straight out. "Bang" hit the trellis in the flower bed.
Everyone heard a noise outside the house, and they all came out with lights to check, Chu Zhuang took advantage of the situation to support the Chen family and the maids who were gradually sobering up Qiu Yuanwei, looked around, and wondered: Why didn't you see Ah Lei's stinky boy, wasn't he still following me just now?
As soon as Yu Wenlei got rid of the clamps, his brain gradually regained consciousness, and the rattan "stabbed" and retracted into his arm. Yu Wenlei knew that the enemy was at present, so he hurriedly adjusted his true qi by himself, and in a moment his strength finally returned to his body. He raised his hand, holding three dart talismans between his fingers, and shouted angrily: "Bold demon, you actually want to hurt people with secret arrows, wait for me to clean you up!"
The people rushed over and gathered around, I don't know what happened, I had the courage to hold the lantern into the flower bed, and I was so frightened that I fell directly to the ground, and shouted tremblingly: "Oh, oh my mother, it's not good, Steward Qiu was thrown into the flower bed by Yuwen Shaoxia and his face was covered with blood, it seems that he can't live!"
A few servants who were usually good with Steward Qiu hurriedly stepped into the flower bed to help him. Yu Wenlei shouted and stopped: "Don't retreat quickly, he is not your housekeeper, he is demonized!"
Everyone was shocked and uneasy, and they all discussed, hasn't that yellow skin been subdued by Chu Jushi, why did another one pop up, how many evil people are there in this Qiu Mansion?
"Qiu An" supported the ground with his hands and slowly stood up, the blood on his face became more and more terrifying under the light of the candle flame. When the servants saw this, they were all frightened and ran away, and one of the timid and close ones fainted straight.
"Hmph, the human body is really weak, that's why I hate to occupy the human body. But your aura is so delicious!" Fake Qiu An stretched out his tongue, licked the blood that flowed to the corners of his mouth, stared at Yu Wenlei, and said.
Yuwen Lei shook his hand, and three rune darts galloped out, fake Qiu An wanted to dodge sideways, but the body of this ordinary person was extremely clumsy to manipulate, he was just about to shake his body, and the darts came to him, and all of them were nailed into his body, and he pounced in pain and lay on the ground again.
Yu Wenlei struck a successful blow, and was just about to make a back move, when Chu Zhuang flashed out of the room and asked in a loud voice: "Wait! Ah Lei, what the hell is going on?"
Yu Wenlei turned his head, Chu Zhuang had already arrived in front of him, looking at him with a puzzled face. Yu Wenlei saw Uncle Chu arrive, so he was relieved. He told him how he was coerced by this demon, how he absorbed his aura, and how he fought back in the end. It's just that the moment he was unconscious, he didn't know that it was Zixuan's Yuan Ling who protected him and threw the fake Qiu An into the flower bed.
Chu Zhuang quietly listened to Yu Wenlei's story, looked at "Qiu An" who was lying on the ground and did not move, and walked over slowly. Yu Wenlei was so anxious in the back that he forgot to change his words, and shouted loudly: "Uncle Chu, you have to be careful, I didn't hurt his vital point just now, he is still alive." ”
As soon as Yu Wenlei's words fell, "Qiu An" raised his head, his mouth opened wide to the extreme, and with an "ah", a flash of light flew out. The flash rushed straight to the door of Chu Zhuang, Chu Zhuang dodged sideways, the flash swirled in the air, and took advantage of the situation to fly to the main hall.
"This is the Heart Worm, it seems that it has absorbed a lot of aura, and it is all glowing. Chu Zhuang said in a low voice.
"Uncle Chu, those are all my aura, and they were all absorbed by him!" Yu Wenlei suddenly felt a deep sense of frustration, he had practiced in vain these days, and it seemed that he was going to start all over again.
But then I thought about it, this is fortunate to be sucking my aura, after all, I can condense it again, it just takes some time. If he absorbed Uncle Chu's aura, he would not be able to use spiritual power for the rest of his life.
"You can rest assured, as long as you defeat the Enlightenment Worm in the time of a pillar of incense, the aura will return to your body. Chu Zhuang comforted Yu Wenlei, and continued: "It inhaled the aura, and if it didn't run away quickly, it even hid in the house, it's really stupid."
It's not good, it wants to ......" Chu Zhuang suddenly understood the purpose of the heart worm, and flew into the house.
Yu Wenlei was really surprised and delighted when he heard Uncle Chu say this, and quickly ran into the house. When the servants saw this, a few of them were curious, and they also followed them.
Inside the house, Chen and the maid had already supported Qiu Yuanwai and hid behind the screen. Qiu Yuanwai was bold, looking out through the gap, the yellow skin was trembling lying on the ground, suddenly a white light broke through the door, and swooped into its body, and the yellow skin suddenly got rid of the control of the confinement charm and stood up.
This sudden change frightened Qiu Yuanwai almost to fall. At this time, Chu Zhuang and Yu Wenlei also arrived one after another. Chu Zhuang pointed to the yellow skin and shouted, "Enlightening Heart Worm, do you think you can escape by hiding in its body?" After that, he took out a paper talisman from his sleeve and recited it.
The Wuxin worm burrowed into the body of the yellow skin, and when he saw the two of them coming in, he giggled, wagged his tail, and a cloud of yellow smoke spewed out from behind.
Chu Zhuang was concentrating on reciting the spell, only to smell a foul smell coming to his nose, which made him dizzy, nauseous and vomiting, and quickly covered his nose and retreated, and the gathered true qi suddenly dispersed. Qiu Yuanwai had just been put on the yellow skin, his physique was weak, and he fainted again after being stinky.
Chu Zhuang pulled Yu Wenlei out of the house, his face was pale, and he gritted his teeth and said: "It's a great shame to be humiliated! Dare to tease me, it's really unreasonable." Yu Wenlei's face turned pale, and he raised his head and asked, "Uncle Chu, what should I do now?"
"Hmph, watch me smash it to death with an ice drop and a big hail!" Chu Zhuang was furious. With that, he pulled out the paper note again.
Huang Pizi, who was hiding in the house, heard Chu Zhuang say the words "ice falling big hail", instinctively shuddered, and turned into the blue-scaled python and crawled out of the house like a lightning speed, wanting to run for his life.
When everyone saw a blue-scaled python swimming out of the house, they were all so frightened that they scattered and fled for their lives, only hating their father and mother for having two legs. Yu Wenlei pointed to the python and shouted to Chu Zhuang: "Uncle Chu, this is the python I met in the barren valley, you see that it is blind in one eye." ”
Chu Zhuang saw the big python walking out of the house, and said to Yu Wenlei: "This is the change of the Wuxin worm hiding in the yellow skin, the details will be explained to you later, I am going to force it out of it now, you help from the side" After saying that, the other hand turned into a rune sword, and stabbed out of the giant python with a shake of the sword flower.
The Mindworm has a low IQ and does not know how to improvise, it will only hide in the shadows and eavesdrop on people's conversations, changing the appearance that they fear the most. At this moment, the green-scaled python it transformed into was exactly the same as what Yu Wenlei said, so he thought that Chu Zhuang and Yu Wenlei must be extremely afraid.
When it saw Chu Zhuang stabbing with his sword, it opened its mouth and spewed out a breath of black gas.
Seeing the black gas, Chu Zhuang subconsciously turned around to hide, and suddenly thought that this was not the smell, so he jumped into the air, reached out and took out the confinement talisman, and recited the incantation in a low voice.
This Imprisonment Talisman and Puppet Talisman both belong to the Bondage Charm, the difference is that the Puppet Talisman can only be used on humans, while the Imprisonment Talisman can be used for all living beings, depending on the size of the opponent's aura and true qi, to determine whether a spell is needed.
The giant python spewed black gas into the air one after another, and Yu Wenlei took the opportunity to take out a talisman dart and shoot it at its only eye, and the giant python was startled and swept its tail. At this moment, Chu Zhuang's confinement talisman was also recited, and as soon as he raised his hand, the paper talisman hit the giant python's body, and the giant python was immediately frozen in place, unable to move.
Chu Zhuang floated down, swung his sword and slashed straight at the top of the blue-scaled python's head, so frightened that the heart worm hurriedly drilled out of the python's head and spread its wings to escape.
If it were in normal times, it would definitely be able to escape in such a dark night, but it had just absorbed Yuwenlei's aura, and it was shining with white light, which was a moving target. Yu Wenlei didn't allow it to escape, raised his hand and stabbed it into the air and fell to the ground. The aura absorbed by the Heart Worm suddenly dispersed, and it returned to Yu Wenlei's body.
The blue-scaled python lost the control of the heart worm, gradually became smaller, and soon reverted to the appearance of a yellow skin, this time it was bound by a more powerful imprisonment charm, knowing that it could not escape, so it closed its eyes and waited for death.
When everyone saw Chu Zhuang and Yu Wenlei exert their magical powers, kill the heart worm, and severely damage the yellow skin, they all rejoiced and applauded.
Subsequently, Chu Zhuang walked into the house to wake up Qiu Yuanwai, Chen and the maids helped each other to the courtyard, and ordered a few brave servants to carry Qiu An's body out of the flower bed, and then he opened his mouth to tell Qiu Yuanwai the truth of the matter:
Half a year ago, Qiu Tongcheng, the old housekeeper of Qiu's house, died, and Qiu Yuanwai remembered that the old housekeeper had a poor background and was loyal to himself, so he asked someone to choose a cemetery with good feng shui for the old housekeeper. Who knew that when digging a pit and burying them that day, they dug the cave of the yellow skins, and the servants did not know the stakes and beat all the yellow skins to death. Am I right?" Chu Zhuang looked at Qiu Yuanwai and asked.
Who knew that Qiu Yuanwai shook his head and said: "I didn't accompany the old housekeeper on the day of the funeral, everything was arranged by Qiu An, and I didn't see Qiu An talk about it after I came back." ”
A servant in the crowd bowed down and said, "Master Hui, the truth is indeed as Chu Jushi said, we dug up the yellow skin's nest that day, and I don't know who proposed it, so everyone rushed up and killed them." Steward Qiu thought that this was just a trivial matter, and did not let us report it to you. ”
Several servants in the crowd chimed in, "Yes, yes." ”
Chu Zhuang nodded, pointed to the old yellow skin lying on the ground, and continued: "This yellow skin is their ancestor, and it has been cultivating for several years. Unfortunately, it was not at home when it went into the mountain to practice that day, and when it came back, it must have been resentful when it saw that its home had suffered such a catastrophe. So it infiltrated the Qiu Mansion that night, waiting for an opportunity to retaliate. Who knew that when it attacked Qiu Yuanwai, it was injured by the amulet I gave it, and the new hatred and old hatred made it completely lose its mind, so it entrenched in Qiu Mansion and vowed to earn a fish and die in the net. ”
Qiu Yuanwai opened his mouth and asked, "Engong, how do you say this?"
Chu Zhuang explained: "It already has a Dao practice, and if it continues to cultivate like this, it may not be able to realize the Dao. Now it is bent on revenge, and it has long since deviated from the right track of cultivation. Moreover, it is frequently attached to the human body, and it is also a great danger to itself, and it may one day be punished by heaven. ”
Qiu Yuanwai nodded: "I see!" The old yellow skin is now "a knife man, and I am a fish." "Don't move, just wait for death.
Chu Zhuang glanced at the old yellow skin, and then said: "It tried every means to harm Qiu Yuanwai, but there was a talisman outside the staff, and it was never able to succeed. It attached other people's bodies to scare the outside, but the outside didn't scare to death, but scared a few weak and timid people to death. The arrival of Ah Lei and I today made it completely desperate, and just when it was about to give up, a person made it see hope again. ”
