Chapter 297: The Man Behind the Scenes
In order to lure out the mysterious mastermind behind the scenes, the Yuan Circle ran out almost every day, using the good weather to go out to play, and ran around the city.
Although it was used as a bait to lure the snake out of the hole, its own safety still had to be guaranteed, and Yan Jiu was instructed by the Immortal Cultivator to protect her at all times. However, considering that the enemy might shrink back and not make a move because of Yan Jiu's presence, he only let him follow secretly.
It's just that when the Yuan Circle fell into the water before, Yan Zhi saved her, and the man behind the scenes seemed to be a little hesitant, and the Yuan Circle had been shaking outside for seven or eight days, but there was no movement at all.
Wondering if the other party had given up, Yuan Quanquan sat under a relatively remote tree by the river in the city, holding a bag of freshly bought sugar-fried chestnuts in his arms, and looked around while peeling them.
In order to better lure the people behind the scenes to take the bait, the Yuan Circle is trying to pick the kind of places with fewer people. At this time, except for a child who was digging and playing in the mud in the distance, there was only one person in the Yuan Circle.
She's been wandering outside for the past few days, and she's a little tired of sitting by the river at this moment, and she's really looking forward to the villain who is behind her back to show up.
Maybe it's because her inner desire is too urgent, maybe it's because the person behind the curtain has observed these days and feels that she can finally start, just when Yuanquanquan clapped her hands after eating the last sugar-fried chestnut and was about to get up and go home, she keenly noticed that something seemed to be approaching in the river.
Thinking of the tracking spell left on the body of the dragon by the previous meditation, he glanced at the river again, guessing if it was the dragon or not.
I looked left and right, and found that the boy who was digging in the mud had run away at some point, and she was the only living creature in the whole river except for the birds in the trees.
If the dragon drags her into the water again this time, it won't ...... This river doesn't look deep, and it shouldn't drown.
However, the Yuan Circle was not dragged into the water this time, and before the dragon appeared, the tracking spell that the meditation had placed on him had already worked. The sensed meditation immediately appeared at the side of the Yuan Circle, and then followed the spell to find the mastermind behind the small actions behind the scenes.
Looking at the familiar face in front of him, Yuan Quanquan was a little surprised.
It's not some evil ghost or demon spirit, it's actually the Taoist priest who has met a few times.
When I saw this Taoist priest at the palace banquet last year, Yuanquanquan felt an inexplicable sense of discomfort with this person, and always felt that he had an indescribable weirdness. When they saw each other again, they found that he and Lu Qingyuan had an ulterior secret, and the meditation cultivator also said that this person was not simple.
Now, knowing that this person can actually control ghosts like dragons, the strange feeling in the heart of the Yuan Circle is even worse.
The meditation cultivator didn't seem to be surprised, with a really such look, looking at the Taoist priest with interest.
"I really didn't expect that just a mortal could practice ghost magic."
Meditation had placed a tracking spell on the dragon before, and there was no 100% certainty that the other party would use the dragon again, just in case. He was also worried that if he changed his method, he would not be able to catch the other party for a while. Thankfully, the spell didn't work in vain.
When he sensed the movement of the tracking spell, he was in the emperor's imperial study, listening to the old pedantics of the six departments arguing over a new decree.
He found an excuse to leave, and instantly came from the palace to the Yuan Circle, and then tracked down the Taoist priest in the direction pointed by the spell.
This is a secret room, a secret room hidden in a Taoist temple.
Startled by the sudden appearance of the Meditation Cultivation and Yuan Circle Circle, the Taoist priest's first reaction was to run away.
Of course, there is meditation, and he will not be able to run away this time no matter what.
As soon as the three words "Ghost Guarding Technique" came out, the Taoist priest's body was obviously stiff, and his eyes were sharp and cool when he looked at the meditation cultivator.
"Who the hell are you? How do you know about ghost repellent? β
The cultivator was amused and said, "Shouldn't this be the king's question to you?" The Taoist priest was trapped by the magic of the meditation cultivation, and his body was entangled by wisps of black qi, and he looked at His Royal Highness the King of Ming leisurely and found a place to sit down, "This king is very interested, you are a mortal, you actually know the art of resisting ghosts, and you have cultivated well, and even the dragon can be controlled by you." Can you speak with this king? β
When the Taoist priest heard this, he was even more puzzled, and he had doubts about the identity of the man in front of him, "You are not King Ming, who are you?" β
"You don't have to know who this king is, you just need to answer this king's question."
Yuan Quanquan searched for a circle but didn't find a second chair, and he didn't want to sit on the ground regardless of his image, so after thinking about it, he walked towards the meditation cultivator, and sat on his lap without saying a word.
Ming Xiu put his arm around her waist, raised his head and hooked the corners of his mouth at her, and adjusted his sitting posture to make his princess sit more comfortably.
The Taoist priest looked at the two of them and was silent for a moment, then sneered, "What if I don't say it? β
Meditation didn't matter: "That's easy, just send you to the eighteenth layer of hell." β
The Taoist priest was shocked by these words, and then stiffened his face and said, "Heh, who do you think you are, Hades?" I'm not a three-year-old. β
Meditation: "Although this king is not the king of Hades, but the king of Hades ...... It's a good friend of this king, as long as this king says a word, well, it's not a big problem. β
The Taoist priest still didn't believe it, after all, although he knew how to resist ghosts, he was still very skeptical that the man in front of him was likely to be a big man in the ghost world. Therefore, although he was a little apprehensive in his heart, he still pretended not to care about it on his face, and he looked hard.
Meditation doesn't matter what his mental activities are, his purpose is very simple, catch the person who is secretly poking behind his back and want to harm the Yuan Circle, know what he is, and then solve it.
Now that the first two have known, the last one is solved......
Shen Xiu threw a look at the little woman in his arms and asked, "What should I do with this person, what does the little circle think?" β
The Yuan Circle doesn't understand what the ghost control technique is, but it can probably understand it literally.
She actually doesn't understand a little, although she is a ghost queen, but so far, she is still a mortal, right? And not to mention the true identity of the meditation cultivator, his identity as the king of Ming is there, this Taoist priest still dares to target her, and wants to arrest her three times and twice, and his courage is fat enough.
Moreover, what surprised her the most was that this Taoist priest actually knew that she was different from ordinary people, so it seemed that she also had two brushes.
It's just that the person he met was impartial, and he happened to be the boss of the ghost world, and if he wanted to grab food from the mouth of the big man in the ghost world, it depended on whether he had the ability.
Oh, and of course, she wasn't saying she was food in some skeleton's mouth.
"Ask me?" Yuan Quanquan sat on the lap of meditation, although he was a party, he just wanted to watch the play. Unexpectedly, Shen Xiu directly threw the right of disposal to her, and after thinking about it, she asked, "Throwing him directly to Jieya, doesn't it violate the rules?" β
If this person's life is not at the end of his life, wouldn't such a disposition be tantamount to murder?
Ming Xiu smiled and explained: "Mortals who practice ghost control techniques are already violating the way of heaven, and they themselves will be sent by heaven. β
Yuan Quanquan: "Yo, huh?" β
"In that case, let's be good again." Yuan Quanquan turned his head and looked at the Taoist priest with a smile, and said with a gracious expression, "You see how good we are to you, you want to harm me, and I want to save you from the suffering of heaven, don't thank me, who called me Lei Feng!" β
The Taoist priest was restrained, his eyes were confused, his face was confused, and he looked at the Yuan Circle like a monster.
After a moment, his face sank, and the hand behind his back made a strange gesture, and his mouth was full of words.
Meditation raised his eyelids and glanced at them, not caring at all.
Yuan Quanquan watched the Taoist priest's mouth turn rapidly, and a string of incantation-like words that he didn't understand floated out, and then she saw that the black qi that had been haunting him slowly faded and gradually dissipated, and finally he yelled and struggled hard, and actually broke free.
Yuan Quanquan was afraid that the other party would run away, so he patted Ming Xiu's shoulder, "Hey, don't you care?" β
The old god was there, but the old god remained unchanged, as steady as an old dog, "Don't be in a hurry in the small circle, he can't run." β
"Huh, run? Then I'm going to have to take my baby and run again! As soon as the words fell, I saw that the Taoist priest made another strange gesture, muttered a few words in his mouth, and then shouted, "All ghosts are out, driven by me, listen to my orders!" Appear! β
With his loud roar, Yuan Quanquan saw a furnace behind him, just like Taishang Laojun's alchemy furnace, and let out a roar, and then the furnace shook violently as if it had goat madness.
The Yuan Circle and the Meditation Circle were completely like watching a trick, and they watched it with relish, and they didn't even move their eyebrows.
Yuan Quanquan was still sitting on the lap of the meditation cultivator, and he saw streams of black gas coming out of the furnace, accompanied by bursts of terrible and terrifying screams, and there were dozens or even hundreds of ghosts.
The Taoist priest stood in front of the furnace, and the black gas came from the furnace. After coming out, he was inhaled into his body, and his face gradually became less human.
There is meditation, but the Yuan Circle is not afraid, but seeing this scene with his own eyes, he still feels a little stunned.
Mortals absorb ghosts, and there are hundreds of ghosts, what does this person want to do?
After all the black qi in the furnace was sucked by the Taoist priest, the meditation cultivator said lazily: "Ready?" β
The posture is lazy, the tone is casual, and the expression is arrogant, and the whole body is exuding a temperament at this time - the domineering spirit of the big guy!
The Taoist priest didn't know Taishan, he didn't know who he was facing at the moment, and he still felt good about himself there, and after hearing the words of meditation, he snorted coldly: "No matter what your identity is, I have cultivated the ghost control technique, unless the king of Hades is here, otherwise...... Hmph, you all have to be my cultivation materials! β
Meditation Xiu played with a strand of hair in the Yuan Circle, and chuckled when he heard this, "Really? That...... What if the ghost king is here? β
The Taoist priest was stunned for a moment, and before he could react to who the ghost king was talking about, he only felt a black gas in front of him, hitting the faΓ§ade. He dodged sideways, and was about to shoot back, but the black qi seemed to be conscious, turned a corner, and came towards his back again.
Swallowing many ghosts and many of them are resentful ghosts, in a sense, Taoist priests are no longer human.
The principle of meditation is that these days in the human world will not harm mortals unless necessary.
But this ...... in front of you Now it doesn't belong to the realm of mortals, and he still dares to hit his people with his ideas, so naturally there is no need to abide by the principles.
