Chapter Eighty-Four: The Shadow Walker's Practice

The eldest aunt sat on the side, saw Wan Shuzi finish writing, patted her buttocks, got up directly, took away the yellow paper and hair, and handed it to the old woman.

The old woman took advantage of the candle on the cabinet to open her eyes as much as possible and looked carefully. As soon as she glanced at it, the old woman's pupils narrowed for a moment, and then returned to normal in a very short time.

Although the time was very short, Ma Lin and Wan Shuzi both noticed this detail, and the two glanced at each other before turning their eyes to the old woman again.

After reading it, the old woman pinched the yellow paper and hair in her hands, got up slowly, and instructed the aunt: "Su Fen, you go to the courtyard and get a basket of gold and silver bridges, 1,000 gold ingots, 4 bundles of rosin, and 16 boys and girls!" ”

The aunt was obviously familiar with these things as well, and after a few minutes, she prepared these things, but instead of moving them into the house, she got a room in the middle of nowhere.

The old woman coughed and staggered into the room. Ma Lin and the others glanced at each other and followed behind.

The old woman pushed open the door of the house, and although the light in the room was dim, the old woman still skillfully walked around the pile of things on the ground and walked straight to the innermost portrait.

Just now, because it was far away, Ma Lin didn't see it clearly, and when he entered the house this time and walked a few steps, Ma Lin found that it was the king of Yama who was enshrined inside.

Ma Lin was a little shocked, you must know that in the Northeast Horse World, there is no horse that can worship the Lord of Yama. This old woman can even be worshiped by Lord Yama, and she is also a person with great skills. Unconsciously, Ma Lin's movements were a little respectful.

The old woman opened the four bundles of incense one by one, inserted them one by one on a large incense burner on the incense table, and then lit a thick candle and used the candle to light the rosin one by one.

The old woman held up the yellow paper written by Wan Shuzi just now, and read it again before she read it out: "Grandpa Hades, there is a southern woman Miao Xiaofeng who is missing today, and her birthday is xxx." His family prepared a basket of gold and silver bridges, 1,000 ingots, and 16 boys and girls. I hope you will be kind and show you the way! ”

Ma Lin noticed a detail, just when the old woman was talking about "Miao Xiaofeng" just now, the aunt's face was suddenly shocked, and then she hurriedly covered her face with her hands, and accidentally knocked down a gold mountain.

Ma Lin's eyes kept scanning the aunt and the old woman, and he always felt that these two people had something to do with Miao Xiaofeng's disappearance. Even if it doesn't matter, you should know some valid information.

When the old woman had finished reciting the incantation, she reached out and threw the candle at the pile of paper. The paper-tied thing instantly burned, and Ma Lin, who was hit by a huge heat wave, took a few steps back.

But Wan Shuzi remained in place, and seemed to be unaffected at all.

The flames continued to burn for four or five minutes, during which time there was no movement. At the end, after the flame was burned, the old woman's face was flushed, she moved her body with great effort, and apologized to Ma Lin and Wan Shuzi: "Two guests, I'm really sorry, the old woman didn't win the favor of Lord Yama today, and Lord Yama didn't show any information, which disappointed the two of you!" ”

Ma Lin looked at Wan Shuzi and waited for Wan Shuzi to react. Wan Shuzi's expression was calm, so that people could not see his joy and anger, took out a large ocean from his arms and handed it to his aunt, then turned around and left.

Ma Lin watched Wan Shuzi leave, and he wanted to say something, but in the end he sighed and followed Wan Shuzi.

Not far from the door of the old woman's house, Ma Lin couldn't hold back, walked two steps quickly to Wan Shuzi, and said in a low voice: "Uncle Shi, I think there is something wrong with these two people." When you handed the old woman the yellow paper just now, the old woman's reaction was not quite right, and the aunt's reaction was too strange. ”

Wan Shuzi's face did not change, he nodded indifferently, bypassed Ma Lin and continued walking.

Ma Lin was unwilling, and caught up with Wan Shuzi in a few steps, and continued in a low voice: "Uncle Shi, although I don't have any evidence, my intuition tells me that those two people must know Miao Xiaofeng's whereabouts. ”

Wan Shuzi still didn't stop, just gestured to Ma Lin with his eyes, and continued to walk outside the village.

Ma Lin was stunned for a moment, not understanding the meaning of Wan Shuzi too much. But since Wan Shuzi didn't want to say anything more at this moment, Ma Lin couldn't force it, so he could only follow Wan Shuzi with his head down.

Wan Shuzi walked very fast, only a few minutes out of the village, and walked for more than ten minutes to the foot of a mountain before stopping.

Wan Shuzi turned around, stretched out his hand and drew a talisman in the air, and the talisman disappeared in a flash after it was formed. Wan Shuzi breathed a sigh of relief, turned to Ma Lin, and said in a low voice: "Senior nephew, I also noticed what you said just now, but that village is really not a place to stay for a long time. ”

Ma Lin looked at Wan Shuzi and said, "Uncle Shi, you mean that if we talk in the village, we may be monitored by those two people." ”

Wan Shuzi nodded, with a little solemnity on his face: "Senior nephew, don't look at that old woman who is already old and can't walk, but her ability is not small at all." There is also the fact that I agree with you, although I have no evidence, but my intuition tells me that Miao Xiaofeng's disappearance must have nothing to do with these two people! ”

As soon as Ma Lin heard that Wan Shuzi also had this idea, he unconsciously became a little excited in his words, raised his voice a little, and said: "Uncle Shi, why don't I go to the nearby to borrow some immortals, let's investigate inside and out, I don't believe that I can't find any clues." ”

Wan Shuzi looked at Ma Lin, his face was a little unhappy, and his voice was very low: "Senior nephew, do you remember your current identity." In the future, during the period when you are learning art, it is better to use less of your first horse methods, so as not to pass the Shanhaiguan Pass and suddenly lose all your means, and you will not adapt to it for a while. ”

Ma Lin was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that he was no longer a horse immortal who was sitting on a nearly three hundred immortal family, but just an ordinary Maoshan disciple.

Ma Lin thought of this joint, solemnly bowed to Wan Shuzi, and said respectfully: "Thank you Uncle for mentioning it, my nephew has not adapted to the new identity for a while, and my nephew will definitely pay attention in the future!" ”

Wan Shuzi nodded and did not continue to delve into it. Suddenly, Wan Shuzi smiled mysteriously, looked at Ma Lin and said, "Senior nephew, let you see how our Maoshan methods are!" ”

As he spoke, Wan Shuzi took out a dozen blank yellow rune papers in his arms, and took out a worn-out brush out of nowhere. The brush is also strange to say, it can leave marks on the yellow paper without touching the ink.

Wan Shuzi took out a piece of yellow paper at random and threw it in the air, and the yellow paper seemed to be pulled by something, so it was firmly fixed in the most convenient position for writing in front of Wan Shuzi. Wan Shuzi raised the brush and silently recited a few incantations in his mouth, the tip of the brush suddenly became wet, and the ink color seemed to be black and brown with a little vermilion.

Ma Lin recalled it carefully, as if there was no such ink color in the talisman drawing skills that he often ran to teach.

Since it was a technique that he had never seen before and an ink color that he had never seen before, Ma Lin couldn't help but have more snacks and looked at Wan Shuzi drawing talismans intently.

Ma Lin only looked at it for a while, and then felt that Wan Shuzi and Chang Ran and Ran were two completely different styles. And Wan Shuzi is different, and I don't see Wan Shuzi using more mana, and the rune pen leaves heavy scratches on the rune paper like a cloud, and the whole process looks full of beauty, as if Wan Shuzi is not drawing runes, but painting.

Less leaning, more than a dozen painted talisman seals are lined up in front of Wan Shuzi, waiting for the air to dry. Ma Linzheng felt that what he had just watched was not enjoyable, and now he had the opportunity, so he took the opportunity to come forward and watch.

Ma Lin carefully looked at these dozen talisman seals one by one, and when he saw the best, Ma Lin looked at Wan Shuzi with a dejected face, and muttered: "Uncle Shi, what kind of talisman seals are you drawing, why don't I know any of them!" ”

Wan Shuzi had a slight smugness on his face, but the words in his mouth were still very steady: "These eighteen talisman seals are the secrets of my Maoshan Mountain, and they have the skills of summoning spirits, accepting spirits, defending, trapping the enemy, and retreating from the enemy." Eighteen runes and seals are integrated in attack and defense, which is a rare set of methods! ”
