Volume 1: I Am the Heavenly Master Chapter 203 Eliminate harm for the people
Zhuang Yan and I stopped and listened carefully to the ancestor's explanation.
"Remember, go back for a while, turn left at the first junction, turn right at the next junction. The alley is not long, and the windows on the wall next to it are very high and not big. The windows of the two houses are just staggered, and the two houses are almost the same length. Oni Xiu is in the middle of the alley underground, I don't know what's going on there, but he's very weak, he should be recuperating, and I can't let him run this time. ”
"Got it, let's go investigate it first."
"Okay, be careful, I don't want to expose myself." The Ancestor said a word of caution and stopped talking.
Zhuang Yan and I walked down the alley and turned left. Walk to a T-junction and turn right.
An alley of more than ten meters, the windows of the houses on both sides are open on the second floor, and the windows of the two houses are just staggered from each other. We walked slowly down the alley, and I took a hard feel for the ground, hoping that I could find something out of the ordinary.
The stone slabs on the ground are all large bluestone slabs, and there are finger-wide gaps between each one, although they can be lifted, but how to turn the stone slabs up without alarming passers-by. . . It's a problem.
After passing through the alley, Zhuang Yan and I walked a few more steps and came to a spacious place around the corner.
It was probably deliberately designed, with a small open space and a few stone benches supporting the roadside, which was supposed to be a place for villagers to enter and rest. I paused, surveying my surroundings and thinking of what to do.
"How? Is there a way to force him out? Zhuang Yan asked, but it woke me up.
I've always only thought about how to get down inside and fight him for 300 rounds, and I've never thought about any way to make him show up on his own. As soon as Zhuang Yan brought it up, I paid attention.
I made up a message on WeChat and sent it to Yang Ji, asking him to inform the nearby Heavenly Master who was in charge of protecting me, and buy some alcohol nearby to gather with me, the sooner the better. Then, I sent him my real-time location.
'How much alcohol?' ’
'The more the merrier, at least twenty bottles. It's best to bring two watering cans with you. ’
After replying to the message, I began to talk to Zhuang Yan about my containment and urging plan. As for why alcohol, because the ashes at the bottom of the pot are in the running water in the ground, it will not do anything, and besides, I only carry three or four small packets with me now, which is not enough to consume.
Zhuang Yan understood my method, and we walked around the neighborhood again, paying attention to the terrain and figuring out the direction of the water flow in the underpass.
When I returned to that venue, the Celestial Masters I had seen yesterday were all holding bags in one hand and mobile phones in the other, looking down at the navigation and walking towards this side. Including Du Jiale was among them, carrying no less than ten bottles of about 100 milliliters of alcohol in the bag. There are also two hand-held red watering cans.
Approaching the destination, everyone looked up from time to time. Seeing me and Zhuang Yan, we almost unanimously put away our mobile phones and came to meet beside us.
After a round of greetings, I told them that I felt like I had found a hiding place for the oni, and asked them to bring alcohol to force the oni out of the sewers, and then we worked together to catch them.
As soon as Du Jiale heard that we might fight with the ghosts, she gave me the things and said that she would wait outside the village first.
Yang Xinyang was with Zuo Hua today, because her Taoism was not high, Zuo Hua arranged for her to go to a small store to buy a bottle of drink and drink. Let her open the eyes of the sky, just keep silent for a while, and use this operation as an opportunity to observe and learn.
Now there are many people, and there are only two at the entrance of the alley, and our troops are divided into two roads. Downstream Zhuang Yan took Zuo Hua and another third-level Heavenly Master to guard, and assigned a watering can and ten bottles of alcohol to her. Have them prepare a watering can and splash the intersection with alcohol first to prevent the ghost from escaping. I took the two Celestial Masters to the upper reaches, and when they were well prepared, I arranged for the two of them to seal the intersection as well, and then poured the alcohol little by little into the cracks in the stone slabs.
The watering can was also filled with alcohol and sprayed into the cracks between the stone slabs.
The alcohol poured upstream into the waterway flows downstream and is of little use because it is diluted by the water. The alcohol from the watering can is atomized and drifts downstream with the weak wind from the underground passages and water currents, which works very well.
Ten meters of alley, I sprayed alcohol into the cracks of the stones one by one from the outside in. Although I probably knew where the ghost cultivator was based on the ancestor's description, I still had to approach his hiding place step by step.
Two third-level Heavenly Masters followed me, carrying a plastic bag of alcohol in one hand and a peachwood sword in the other, and they had good luck with their true qi early.
Majesta was also on the other side of the alley, and like me, he kept spraying alcohol into the cracks in the stones.
When there were still four or five stone slabs in the middle, a mournful tone came from below.
"Fellow Daoist, this is going to kill them all......"
I hurriedly stood up and looked at the source of the sound, but I saw a burst of green air rising from the crack in the stone slab in the center of the alley.
The two Heavenly Masters behind me were about to rush forward and take it down with one blow, but I hurriedly stretched out my hand to stop it. Behind Qingqi, Zhuang Yan Zuohua and the others also put down the things in their hands, pulled out their peach wood swords, and walked towards the alley with a menacing attitude.
I didn't say a word, just watched Qingqi gradually transform into a human form in the air, and a Taoist priest who was so old that he was about to enter the earth stood in front of us hunched over.
It looks decades older than it was a few days ago.
The feeling of seeing him for the first time quickly came to mind. I remember the first time I knocked on the door with Zhuang Yan and saw him, like a spiritual old man less than sixty. The second time he called me into the house, I felt like I was seventy or eighty years old. Today, I smoke it out of the sewer with alcohol, as if someone who has been in the ground for half a year has been dug out again, at least one hundred and twenty years old.
Oni Xiu's hair is thin, the bags under his eyes are shriveled and drooping, and his eyeballs are sunken into his sockets, and he can barely see a shadow. He was looking at me with a crooked nose and a slanted mouth, and the resentment that he couldn't stop coming to him was coming.
"Fellow Daoist, you and I have no grievances, why do you treat me like this?" The ghost cultivator raised his right hand and pointed at me.
I noticed that the skin of his hands had dried up like plastic film picked up from a construction site, charred and transparent, and covered with a thin layer of bones. Through the almost translucent skin, the shape of the knuckles can be clearly seen, and the joints seem to break through the membrane and be exposed at any time.
"All ghost cultivation in the world has the same ending. I advise you to be arrested, I will arrange for you to return to the spirit world normally, and let the judge help you sort out the sins of your life. ”
I also smoothed out my own peachwood sword, and the true qi had penetrated the sword body when the wooden sword came out of the sleeve.
At this moment, I distinctly heard the voices of the two people behind me: 'Wow! I didn't expect him to have such attainments at such a young age. Of course, I didn't really hear it, but I think the two third-level Heavenly Masters behind me should think so.
The ghost cultivator didn't speak again, only stabilized his body, and seemed to be preparing for the final blow.
Behind him, Zuo Hua was in the front, and Zhuang Yan and another Heavenly Master stood behind him, ready to rush up at any time.
I can't help but feel a little sad for the ghost cultivator, I knew this was the case, why bother in the first place.
In the middle of his sigh, he used his true qi, bowed slightly, and his body shot towards me.
In order to prevent him from hurting people, I kept a relatively safe distance of about five meters, and when I saw him coming, I naturally raised my wooden sword, and the tip of the sword was aimed directly at my flying body.
Between the calcium carbide firelight, I saw the familiar spiritual light and stars again, he fought to die with me, and also let the last yin qi penetrate my body.
I screamed badly, and slammed my feet back a few steps, turning into a block before the yin qi needle in front of his body could hit me. With a sharp flip of the wrist, the wooden sword rotated counterclockwise from top to bottom, approaching 180 degrees.
I only heard a few 'bells', and it was the sound of metal colliding.
At the critical moment, the wooden sword blocked all the yin qi needles that shot at my body.
When I heard the sound, my wrist and arm turned sharply and flipped again. Continuing to dance the peachwood sword in front of me, accompanied by the sound of metal colliding, I didn't know where the power came from, and it exploded back five or six meters. Seeing that the ghost cultivator's body had lost the potential energy to continue moving forward, his body obviously couldn't make any adjustments in mid-air, and he fell heavily to the ground.
Just as he was about to take a breath, Zuo Hua arrived from behind Ghost Xiu, flew to the ground, and his left hand quickly and accurately 'snapped' twice on Ghost Xiu's back. On the back of the ghost cultivator, there are two more yellow talismans.
The ghost cultivator still wanted to struggle, but the spirit body and a lifeless body obviously couldn't resist the two charms on his back shoulder.
After trying to support his body twice and failed, he gave up resistance and lay motionless on the ground.
Yang Xinyang also showed her figure from the entrance of the alley, and when she saw a few people rushing into the alley, she came with her, and she also wanted to see what the situation was.
Now that the cult has been subdued, we are surrounding the body where the cult is imprisoned and discussing with each other what to do with the corpse.
I asked Zuo Hua to call Yang Ji, and I dialed Du Jiale's phone and asked her to come to cover up as soon as possible. Although there are not many people, the people who come and go and the people on both sides of the alley have long felt that something is wrong with such movements, and they have opened their windows to watch. The passers-by were the same, seeing a group of us tossing around in the alley, although they didn't know the real thing, most of them began to gather to find gossip and talk about it.
In less than a minute, Du Jiale walked all the way with a work card on his body, holding a document in his hand for passers-by to check.
"Uncles and aunts? The police arrest the suspects, please do not watch. She explained to passers-by very experienced that there were drug dealers who had infiltrated Xinxing from abroad, and they had been followed up by the police for two years......
There were two passers-by standing on the other end, who were about to approach and check, and I hurriedly greeted them and showed them my ID for inspection.
"Nothing to do with people, please don't watch. Follow-up support will be available soon. ”
I was right, the order in the neighborhood gradually became normal after five minutes, and passers-by went their own way and did their own things. After a few more minutes, sirens sounded, and a police car pulled up outside, and two nurses in white coats with stretchers came in. The nurse was professional, maintaining a posture of the oni cultivator lying below, carrying him onto a stretcher and covering the charm on his back with a white sheet.
We consciously opened the way for the stretcher in front, and we didn't go far before we put the stretcher in the back of the police car.
Yang Ji also arrived, clapped his hands and asked us to gather, and told us that the dinner was arranged at Xinxing Hotel to celebrate our success. After two hours, let's meet at the management office first.
