Chapter 68: Superficial Tricks

The noon sun scorched the Qin Yan Palace, and outside the courtyard, two chamberlains set up an oil pot.

Tianyi stood in front of the oil pot, his wide sleeves pulled by himself on his arm.

And the witch doll engraved with the eight characters of birth was thrown into the oil pot by him, and when the oil pot slowly heated, the witch Gu doll made a "crackling" burning sound.

Fang Cai Shang Kelan asked if he wanted to go to the oil pot this day, and this day he unceremoniously responded to her words.

At this moment, Shang Kelan was standing next to Tian Yichang, looking at him calmly.

When the oil smoke came out of the pot, Tianyi's long hand was clenched into a fist, ready to get out of the oil pot and fish out the witch doll.

Everyone looked at him nervously and slowed their breathing.

Just when only the sound of frying could be heard in this quiet place, suddenly, Shang Kelan stretched out her hand to stop Tianyi Chang!

Tianyi was furious, turned his head and glared at her: "Concubine Chen, what do you mean?" ”

Concubine Hua also looked at Shang Kelan coldly and said, "Concubine Chen, what do you mean by this, could it be that you are afraid?" ”

Concubine Ning frowned and did not speak.

The queen looked at her worriedly and said, "Concubine Chen, don't stop Tianyi from casting spells!" ”

The sound of obstruction sounded invariably, but Shang Kelan was unmoved, only grabbed Tianyi's long and thin wrist, broke his fingers little by little, and took out a yellow oiled paper bag from it.

Holding the triangular yellow oiled paper bag in his hand, Shang Kelan seemed to remember something, and said to Tianyi: "If this palace is not mistaken, the folk charlatans will also use the method of using the oil pot to scare the people, the reason is either to drive away evil spirits or to relieve evil, often before getting into the oil pot, they will also hold a package of something like this in their hands." ”

After finishing speaking unhurriedly, Shang Kelan deliberately paused for a few seconds, then smiled slightly, looked directly at Tianyichang, and asked softly: "Dare to ask Dao Chang, what is in this oil paper bag is borax?"

On the side, Lord Sima, who had been watching from the wall and only watching the show, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows after hearing this.

The rest of the people also looked at the sky in surprise.

The Queen Mother frowned: "The sky is long, is it true that this oil paper bag is contained?" ”

Concubine Hua didn't want her plan to be disrupted, so she immediately relieved Tianyi Chang and said: "Queen Mother, this Concubine Chen is clearly quibbling, deliberately splashing dirty water on Tianyi Chang, we have all seen Tianyichang's ability, how can she be a charlatan?" And she's the Taoist of Zhongnan Mountain!"

The reputation of Zhongnan Mountain among the people is still very good.

When the Queen Mother heard this, the doubt in her eyes disappeared a little, she waved her hand, and said, "In that case, let's move on to the next item!" ”

Tianyi Chang and Concubine Hua breathed a sigh of relief, and then, this Tianyi Chang said with some disadvantages: "Pick it up...... Next, sword slash demons!"

Seeing that he was saying something loud, the crowd took a few steps back.

Only Shang Kelan was still standing beside Tianyi Chang and never took a step back.

I saw Tianyi take out a piece of yellow paper from his sleeve, then took a sip of tea from the teacup, and after shouting for a while, he suddenly ......

"Poof!"

Dense beads of tea spit out of Tianyi's long mouth and landed on the yellow paper.

In the blink of an eye, everyone saw that a red grimace pattern appeared on the yellow paper, and this pattern was exactly the same as the grimace that everyone saw in the Moon Palace yesterday!

"Ahh It's the grimace of that day! ”

"Oh my God, it's horrible!"

There was an exclamation from the crowd, and even the Queen Mother couldn't help but look stunned, and the Queen was even more frightened, and hurriedly took a few steps back, but fortunately Momoka hurriedly held her up, so she didn't fall.

The appearance of the grimace caused quite a stir.

Tianyi smiled proudly, held up the yellow paper and said, "Don't panic, since Poor Dao has already made this ghost appear on the paper, just wait for Poor Dao to cut it off with a peachwood sword!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Tian Yichang raised the peachwood sword in his hand.

"Wait!"

Suddenly, Shang Kelan reached out again, and took out another piece of yellow paper from Tianyichang's arms.

The smile on Tianyichang's face suddenly froze, and he hurriedly reached out and snatched the yellow paper from her hand.

He panicked and put the yellow paper into his sleeve, and glared at Shang Kelan and said, "Concubine Chen, exorcism is a big deal, how can you be allowed to mess around again and again?!" ”

Shang Kelan blinked, looked directly at him and said, "Dao Chief, why be angry? Hongu had only seen it in a book, which said that if you smear any shape on alkaline paper with turmeric water, you will not be able to see the traces of its smear when it dries, but when you use water, the pattern will take on a vermilion color, just like you just did. ”

As soon as these words came out, the palace concubines who were still panicked and uneasy stopped whispering one after another, and looked at the sky in surprise.

A trace of anger appeared in the Queen Mother's eyes, and she looked directly at the day and said, "Dao Chief, is Concubine Chen's words true?" ”

On the side, Concubine Hua swallowed her saliva, and a look of panic flashed in her eyes.

She opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say at this point.

Tianyi Chang was questioned by the Queen Mother, and his legs were weak, and he fell to the ground with a "plop"!

I saw Tianyi kowtow to the Queen Mother for a long time and begged for mercy: "The Queen Mother spares her life!" The Queen Mother spares her life! Poor Dao didn't know why Concubine Chen would combine the tricks of the charlatans with the spells of Poor Dao to slander Poor Dao, maybe ...... It may be that Concubine Chen's mother is a thief, and she may be weak-hearted! ”

When it came time for life and death, Tianyi Chang did not forget to pull Concubine Chen off the horse.

Gardenia's heart was full of anger, her willow eyebrows were upside down, and she couldn't help but step forward and point at him: "You! ”

It's just that as soon as she said a word, Shang Kelan raised her hand to stop her, and looked at Tianyi condescendingly and said lightly: "Who is a thief between the two of us, isn't it clear that Master Sima of Qin Tianjian will see your trick?" ”

After speaking, Shang Kelan handed the oil paper bag and yellow paper to Lord Sima, and said gently and politely: "Please Lord Sima to identify whether this thing is borax and turmeric paper." ”

Master Sima took it, opened the oiled paper bag and looked at it, it was really fine borax; He then tore off the corner of the turmeric paper, put it in his mouth and swallowed it, then spit it on the ground.

After a while, Master Sima arched his hand to Shang Kelan and the Queen Mother and said, "Returning to the Queen Mother and Concubine Chen, these two things are indeed borax and turmeric water. ”

As soon as these words came out, the matter of Tianyi Chang being a charlatan.

Tianyi, who was kneeling on the ground, trembled all over, leaned over his head, cried and begged for mercy: "One ...... It must be Concubine Chen who bought off Lord Sima, and they joined forces to harm my reputation as a Taoist priest in Zhongnan Mountain! ”

Hearing that he dared to mention Zhongnan Mountain, a look of impatience flashed in Lord Sima's eyes, and he asked him in a cold voice: "You keep calling yourself a Taoist priest of Zhongnan Mountain, so do you know what the rules of Zhongnan Mountain Taoist Temple are?" ”

"Yes...... It's ......"

These words are like a difficult problem, stumping the sky!
