Youshu returned to the inner hall with the broken toad in her hand, and saw Zhang Gui staring at her with a strange gaze. He stepped forward and tore off the forbidden talisman and ordered, "You guard the prince, and I will come when I go." ”

"You want to run?" Zhang Gui blocked his way, his expression was slightly afraid, but more suspicious and murderous. No matter how extraordinary the ability of the ghost doctor is, once the interests of the prince are endangered, they should be eradicated. Cangzhou is too important to the prince, and once Cangzhou becomes a barren land, the prince will also lose the foundation of his foothold in the Wei State. Only the ghost doctor can solve this game, so he must die!

Youshu didn't bother with him, and used the method of shrinking the land into inches, and quickly rushed to the four city gates to set up a confinement array. If the people of Cangzhou, who are infected with the plague, are allowed to run out, the entire domain of the master will be affected. With his thousands of years of Taoism, he is not afraid of blood curses, but the so-called "ants bite elephants to death", there are hundreds of thousands of people in Cangzhou, if you go to lift the spell one by one, when will it take? Besides, if you save them one by one, the more people die in the back, and the loss of Cangzhou will be irreparable.

He can only trap the people of a city now, and then slowly think of a comprehensive and quick solution. When he returned to the Hall of Benevolence, the King of Servants had already woken up, and was standing under the porch in a large coat waiting, the plum blossoms in full bloom around him had fallen one after another due to the plague, and the rancid and blackened petals were swept up by the wind in the dark sky, looking sparse and broken. This is only the early stage, and in the future, it is not difficult to imagine what a tragic scene Cangzhou in the deep spell is.

Youshu, who was still confident, suddenly became timid, and walked to the master's side step by step, trying to blink her big black and innocent eyes, "Are you awake?" ”

"I'm awake." King Yu smiled slightly, pointing to a handful of minced meat in his hand, "What are you still doing with it?" ”

"I'll break the spell for you." Youshu is naturally authentic.

At this time, the young man still remembered his body, which made King Yu's heart warm slightly. He tried to slow down his complexion, and said softly, "I've heard about it before, it's not your fault, it's that the curse maker is too vicious. Speaking of which, everything is because of me, and you and the people of Cangzhou have just suffered an unjustified disaster. If I had told the people to leave the city immediately, would I have avoided death? ”

"It can't be avoided, it will only cause the plague to spread quickly." Youshu shook her head.

King Yu's eyes darkened, and he said in a dumb voice, "I will order the army to block the city gate." Now, I'm afraid the people will complain about me. ”

"If they want to complain and blame me, what does it have to do with you? I've imprisoned all four gates, and no one can get out unless their mana is higher than mine. Those who left the city before should not have been infected with spells, but I will tell my ghost slaves to go and investigate, and bring them back as soon as they are infected. Youshu's head drooped lower and lower, looking extremely guilty. It was the first time he had stabbed such a big man to his master.

The king didn't care, touched-touched-his head and smiled, "My Youshu is really capable." At this point, it is useless to think too much, so I will summon the doctors of the whole city to meet and see if there is any way to stop the spread of the plague. ”

"Ordinary healing may be able to alleviate the disease for a while, but as long as the spell remains, people and animals will continue to suffer until the whole city is dead, or a fire burns me." Youshu stole the master's face.

King Yu's eyes were slightly cold, he dragged the young man into his arms and hugged him tightly, and said in a deep voice, "With me here, see who dares to touch you." If Cangzhou falls, I will die with you. ”

Youshu smiled crookedly, walked around the master's back with her two hands and patted him gently, rubbed his chest with her forehead like a puppy, and said firmly, "Lord Wang, don't worry, Cangzhou is your fiefdom, and I will definitely not let it mess up." Let's go, remove the spell from your body first. "Nothing is more important than the life of the master.

King Yu remembered the people under his rule, but he couldn't bear to brush off the young man's kindness, so he had to follow him in. Youshu threw the toad into the crockpot, dripping his own blood while pinching the magic trick, the action was very similar to Long Shimei, but it was more mysterious.

The king waited for him to stop before asking in a low voice, "What are you doing here?" ”

"Refining Gu Soul." Youshu patiently explained, "One Gu soul needs to collect the corpses of a hundred Gu Kings, but this toad is originally hatched from a Gu soul, so I just need to refine it." The spell in your body is already very weak, and if I introduce another Gu soul, it will be able to devour and hatch the remaining power of the spell with lightning speed. The curse caster would never have imagined that there would be a second Gu soul in the world, and it would be too late to explode itself. I like to see him want to kill us, but he can't help it. Wait, he will lead us to the capital, and then I will unscrew his head and use it as a stool for you to sit on. The words fell and realized that his words were too rough, and quickly covered his mouth with his hand.

"Who did you learn from wring off his head and giving me a stool to sit on?" King Yu poked him angrily at the center of his eyebrows.

With you, who else could there be? Youshu replied silently.

As he spoke, there was a gurgling sound in the crockpot, as if many bubbles were bubbling out. Youshu immediately changed a method and concentrated on refining, and after an hour, he obtained a glowing Gu soul. Without the slightest hesitation, the king swallowed it up, and finally looked into the mirror of evil.

I saw that as soon as the Gu soul came into contact with the scorpion on the heart talisman, it turned into a mass of solution to cover it, and in an instant, it faded and contracted, and finally solidified into a goose-yellow egg. As soon as Shu Xin's egg moved, the shell quickly broke out, and a small scorpion half an inch long with a light purple body came out of it. It turned a few times on the heart talisman, as if hearing the call of its master, and slowly crawled out.

To be honest, the process of spitting out the little scorpion was not very good, and the king poured several bowls of hot tea in succession to ease his strength. Over there, Youshu couldn't put down the little scorpion lying in the palm of her hand, poking at its translucent shell lightly, and said happily, "The Gu soul is a sacred relic of Miao Jiang, but it has been passed down to this day, and even the Miao people don't know how to use it, otherwise it wouldn't be taken out lightly and used on a death row prisoner." The so-called Gu Soul is not for the purpose of restraining spells, nor is it for the purpose of controlling zuΓ² puppets. Refining and hatching it requires the caster's soul as a guide, so it is actually the caster's β–‘β–‘, which can accompany the caster to grow stronger slowly, and at the critical moment, it is an extra life for the caster. ”

"How do you say that?" King Yu finally became interested.

"It has a thread of my soul in it, and once I die, my soul will burrow into it along this thread." Youshu kissed the little scorpion's high-raised tail and continued, "In order to revive me, it will find the most suitable body nearby to burrow into it, and let me take it by myself." Of course, after I take it, it will also fall into dormancy due to the depletion of soul filaments, and it will have to be raised for a long time before it can be revived. When it wakes up, I can do the same when I encounter danger. In other words, having it is equivalent to having an infinite life. This is also the reason why Gu Soul is listed as the first of the top ten holy relics in Miao Jiang. It's a pity that thousands of years have passed, and Miao Jiang's witch Gu inheritance has been cut off, and there are empty treasures but they don't know what to do, but they have cheapened me for nothing. ”

A long time ago, Youshu wanted to raise a Gu soul, but he couldn't get it. His body doesn't grow old, but that doesn't mean he won't die. He is also flesh and blood, with pain and injuries, and if he has a broken head or a broken heart, he will never be able to regain his zΓ i. Because he is not a person in this world, he cannot enter reincarnation.

This means that once he dies, he will never be able to reunite with his master, and over time it has become a big worry buried in his heart. When Long Shimei took out the Gu Soul, no one knew how he was overjoyed, and as for the crooked way of taking away the sacrifice and the trick of harming people, it was completely out of his consideration. He comes from the last days, and the code of conduct of the people of the last days has long been deeply rooted in the bone marrow, that is, to live by any means.

The more I thought about it, the happier I became, Youshu pursed her mouth like a puppy and arched the little scorpion in her palm. The little scorpion gently touched his thin lips with the tip of his tail, but did not attack, but looked very affectionate.

The king was sour in his heart, but he didn't dare to approach because he hated insects, so he had to cover his chest and pretend to be sick, bluffing Youshu, and when he put down the scorpion to check, he pulled the person to the couch and kneaded-kneaded-stroked-made, and finally it was fine and dense, entangled-kissed.

In the imperial city, in a certain palace, the great demon who was devoured by the spell was sitting in the hot spring pool to breathe, but suddenly spurted out a few mouthfuls of blood, dyeing the clear pool water red. That spell is guided by the blood of its heart, and once it is broken, it will penetrate its heart, although it will not fall, but it can cause it to lose all its mana and lose its lifespan. And will it survive until then? The answer is clearly no.

thought that he had got a great opportunity, but he didn't expect to kill a Cheng Biting Gold halfway and destroy all its plans. Song Youshu, if you don't die, I will never give up! This time, I'm going to see how you break the Blood Curse!

A moment later, a rampant and resentful laugh came from inside the palaceβ€”

The power of the blood curse was huge, and in just one day, the originally prosperous Cangzhou Mansion became lifeless. The trees were yellow and withered, the smell of animals was dying, the faces of the people were gray and their spirits were low, and some old and weak women and children had fallen ill, and many black patches appeared on their bodies.

"Burn the ghost doctor! Burn the ghost doctor! "The people who used to respect the ghost doctor like a god hated to light a fire with their own hands and burned the Renxin Hall and the people inside to ashes. Why did he cast a spell to intercept everyone's escape route? This qiΔ“ was caused by him, and he deserves to die to apologize!

"Throw it! Just throw it in, there's always a torch to fall into! The young men who still had some body left threw their lit torches at them, but they were blocked by an invisible wall.

"Everyone, calm down, don't be impulsive. The plague can be cured, and the prince is summoning the doctor to study the treatment plan, and if he has the strength to make trouble, it is better to go home and wait in peace. Zhou Miaoyin rolled the cardboard into a microphone and shouted repeatedly.

But the people have gone mad and do not listen to dissuasion at all. In the face of the threat of death, everyone is equal, and everyone is crazy, in order to live, they can do anything, this is their nature. The more Zhou Miaoyin persuaded them, the more angry they became, and someone brought a large bucket of tung oil, splashed it around Renxintang, and then lit it without hesitation.

The orange-red flames rose into the sky, illuminating the faces that were either white, bruised, or dark, their expressions hideous, their faces distorted, and their eyes full of monstrous hatred. The ghost doctor must die! What about King Yu inside? If he dies, naturally someone else will take over Cangzhou, and he will still be able to live.

Between "others die" and "die by themselves", eight to nine out of ten people will choose "others die", which is understandable, not to mention that there are many spies stirring up trouble in it, and they all aim at the ghost doctor and the king of servants.

Youshu stood under the porch and listened for a moment, without a trace of fluctuation on his face, until the fire snake flew into the air, causing the master to squint extremely uncomfortably, and then he used the method of floating in the air and floated to the top of the gate of Renxin Hall to stand still.

"The deity puts the words here, with the deity in charge, no one will die in Cangzhou Mansion, but if you are disrespectful to the deity and the prince, the deity is happy to send a few to the Yama Hall to report first, so as to make an example of the chickens and monkeys." His voice was cold and angry, which shook the entire Cangzhou Mansion, and the flames of the skyrocketing were gradually extinguished by his majestic imperial qi, and finally not even a wisp of green smoke came out.

The troublemakers fell silent for an instant, revealing a look of fear and hesitation.

Youshu took this opportunity to take out a blank holy decree and quickly filled it in with a yin and yang dotting pen. This holy decree has a great origin, it was left by the master when he was the king of Yama, and in the eyes of mortals, it may be just a priceless antique, but in the eyes of the ghosts and immortals of the underworld, it is like an edict and cannot be disobeyed.

"Where are Lu Ju and Chenghuang? Hurry up and get the order! With one last stroke, he stomped on his feet, causing the ground to shake three times.

The people who had been overwhelmed by suspicion and were ready to continue making trouble fell one after another, and finally realized who the ghost doctor had summoned. Judge Lu should be a judge surnamed Lu; Chenghuang, that is the immortal who rules the land of a state. How could the ghost doctor dare to issue a holy decree for them to come and receive it, did he think he was the king of Yama?

As soon as he thought of this, two puffs of green smoke came out of the ground, and when the smoke cleared, two men in official uniforms were kowtowing to the ghost doctor in fear, calling them adults.

"From today on, no ghost can catch a ghost in my Cangzhou Mansion, but if it is violated, it will not be punished with dignity." In the eyes of others, the ghost doctor is still the ghost doctor, but in the eyes of Chenghuang and Lu Ju, this person has been covered by a mask with purple stripes on a black background, and he is still wearing the imperial robe of the previous lord of the underworld. There is no one who can dominate the ghost world and the hell of the deaf like the previous lord of the underworld, he suddenly appears and disappears, and his unfathomable mana and his untraceable behavior have become the unspeakable existence of the underworld.

The latter two lords of the underworld were all his cronies, and they didn't dare to disobey his edict, thinking that he had entered the immortal class, but he didn't expect to live in seclusion in Cangzhou. Chenghuang was so shocked that his head was covered with sweat, and Lu Juan was also afraid. He knew that Youshu was very human, but he didn't expect him to be so big.

Youshu, who is a fox and a fake tiger, tries her best to imitate the momentum of her master and throws out the holy decree. The two ghost immortals hurriedly stepped forward to kneel down and take it, and then drew an enchantment to prevent the souls of the people of Cangzhou from leaving their bodies. In other words, even if the plague is deep in the heart, as long as Youshu doesn't let them die, they can't die.

Only then did the troublemakers realize what kind of existence they had provoked, and even the guards who watched coldly couldn't stand on their legs. Although the conversation between the three of them was only a few sentences, the information revealed was terrifyingly large. What kind of person can command ghosts and immortals? What kind of person can make the Lord obedient? What kind of person can control the life and death of the people of a city?

Where is the immortal method used by the ghost doctor? He's an immortal himself!

The troublemakers fell to their knees in pieces, sobbing and begging for forgiveness. They still remember what the adults said before, they should send a few to the Yama Hall to report first. knew that he had the ability to manipulate the life and death of mortals, where did everyone dare to make trouble, and sit quietly at home and wait?

Except for the master, Youshu has never taken anyone to heart, and naturally he will not bother with them. He hooked his index finger at Zhou Miaoyin, who was dumbfounded, and said lightly, "Come in with me." ”

Zhou Miaoyin was stunned for a moment before entering the Renxin Hall under the push of the apprentice, and asked again and again, "Are you an immortal?" You're a god? Oh my God, I saw the gods with my own eyes! I've even studied medicine with you! She shouted in hindsight, "It's not fair! I am a mortal, and I use mortal means, but you use immortal magic to defeat me! It's cheating, open hanging! ”

"I'm not an immortal, I'm just a little bit of the way." Youshu rubbed the roots of her ears and walked a few steps briskly to hold the master's cold hand. He is not an immortal, the master is, if he is not affected by himself, where would the master fall into such a wolf situation now? So even if he gives his life, he won't let the demon touch a single hair of his master.

Zhou Miaoyin hurriedly threw his hand at King Yu, but he no longer had the feelings of the past, but complained in his heart: It turns out that the gods will also stir up the foundation, and no one will believe it if they say it.

"Although the ghost does not detain the soul, when the body festers to a certain point, someone will become the living dead, and the situation is even worse, so I need your help now." Youshu confessed to Zhou Miaoyin.

"You're saying those people are going to turn into zombies?" Zhou Miaoyin's brain turned quickly.

"What is a zombie?" King Servant Socket.

Zhou Miaoyin hurriedly explained to the two ancients what zombies were, and finally said worriedly, "You mean to say that the edict is just to drink to quench your thirst?" But how can I help you? It will take at least several months to find a cure for the plague, and I am afraid it will be too late. Moreover, even if the cure comes out, the curse is still there, and the disease will always flare up again. ”

"I can unravel the spell in just half a month, and before that, I want to borrow your spiritual spring." There is a good mind.

"But my spiritual spring yin qi is extremely heavy."

"I can use the things of the extreme yang to make it an elixir that anyone can drink."

"Really? Well, I'll pour it out for you. Zhou Miaoyin rolled up her sleeves.

Youshu sincerely thanked him, and when the dry well in the courtyard was filled with spiritual springs, he threw nine yang wood, scorching sun charms, golden black tail feathers and other things into it. These are the collections he has accumulated for thousands of years, and today they are all in vain, but as long as he can help his master, there is nothing to be sorry for. King Yu also gradually realized what the boy had paid for himself, and that sense of confusion was finally replaced by firmness.

After the big trouble just now, the new rumors quickly spread, and the people learned that the ghost doctor not only blocked the road out of the city, but also blocked the Huangquan Road, and they were remorse and panic in their hearts, and they all forced the sick body to kowtow to Renxintang. No one will hesitate to burn a mortal to save the whole city, but if an immortal is burned to death, who has the guts? I am not afraid of God's damnation!

Since the immortals can command the ghosts, they can naturally lift the blood curse, they just have to wait. As soon as I thought about it, I heard someone shout, "Look, what's that?" ”

I saw a rising mist coming out of the Renxin Hall, converging into the air to form one after another purple and gold clouds, which spread thousands of miles away in an instant, encompassing the entire Cangzhou Mansion. The thick purple electric light exploded in the air, followed by a dripping rain, which forced the black plague out and turned into invisible.

"The gods have appeared! We are saved! There was jubilation outside the door.

"It really works!" Inside the door, Zhou Miaoyin cried with joy.

"It's just a temporary containment. More plagues have become insects that burrow into tree trunks, brick crevices, and the ground, and will continue to wreak havoc when the rain dries up. Youshu broke off the branch beside her, pulled a small black worm out of the core of the tree, and crushed it into pieces.

"So what to do?" Zhou Miaoyin was anxious.

"I have my own way, you just come over every day and fill this dry well with water." The deep purple water of the well was still boiling, constantly throwing mist into the clouds.

"How long is that going to be? You're always running out of extreme yang things, right? ”

"Seven days is enough." Youshu returned to the inner room and continued to fold the paper crane. The king also helped to fold together, leaning over from time to time and kissing the young man's cheek or lips, saying that he wanted to find some security and authenticity.

Zhou Miaoyin stood outside the window and watched for a while, feeling that she had suffered a 10,000-point critical blow, rubbing her chest in pain.

The people thought that the blood curse would be lifted as soon as the spiritual rain summoned by the ghost doctor came, but the next day the plague turned into tiny worms that came out of the cracks in the ground, brick walls, and tree trunks, and climbed up their legs, which looked even more terrifying. They stumbled to Renxin Hall, shouting for help, but they never waited for the ghost doctor's response, and another spiritual rain fell at noon, solving the crisis.

For many days after that, everyone was tormented by hope and despair, and they couldn't hold it anymore, and they inexplicably arose the idea of killing the gods.

On this day, a group of people came to Renxin Hall with torches, and even some of the elites of the King of Servants participated in it, shouting and insulting while throwing torches into the wall, even if they knew that the move was futile, they persevered. They want to live, they want to get out of the city, they want to escape from this purgatory on earth, so they block and kill the Buddha.

After folding the paper crane for seven days and seven nights in a row, Youshu has a headache, if it weren't for the blended spiritual spring water to replenish the vitality, I'm afraid it would have fallen long ago. King Yu was also very tired, and was resting in the warm arms of the young man.

Youshu looked at the master for a while, and kissed him on the forehead with a precious heart, and then released the paper crane that had been dotted out. The people outside the door first heard the sound of the tide crashing on the shore from far and near, and when they tiptoed to look, they saw a large number of paper cranes flying out of the Renxin Hall, rendering the sky golden yellow. They hovered from side to side, flying up and down, pecking out the pestilence attached to human bodies, livestock, trees, and even the ground, and devouring them with their necks up.

Zhou Miaoyin stood under the corridor and looked out, and was deeply impressed by the methods of the shopkeeper Song. Is there anything in the world that he can't solve? Probably not.
