Chapter 19: Praying Mantis Catches Cicadas
Steward Shao shouted from above, but Mo Xianye turned a deaf ear and continued to draw his runes, but the faster he drawn, the faster the runes burned, and in the end, even the brown glass bottles turned fiery red, as if they were going to burn the two infant corpses.
Mo Xianye took the ink fountain in my hand, poured cinnabar, then bit his finger, dripped a few drops of blood into it, quickly stirred and mixed, redrew the runes, and the runes never burned again.
I breathed a sigh of relief, but Mo Xianye pulled me out of the room, closed the door, locked it from the outside, and then pulled up the ink fountain line, and quickly sealed the door from top to bottom with the ink fountain line, and then used a brush to draw a circle of runes around the door, and finally sealed.
When all this was done, he shook his right hand.
I pulled his right hand over and put it to my eyes, but I didn't see any scars, and I squeezed his fingers hard, but no blood beads came out.
"What about blood? You just bit through the bleeding one. I wondered.
Mo Xianye tugged at the corners of his mouth, didn't speak, and turned to the other side of the steps.
I caught up with him, and he had long hands and legs, and he went up in a few moments, and I couldn't catch up with him at all.
When I climbed out of the basement, he was standing aside and asking Steward Shao.
Steward Shao obviously didn't have the heart to tell him this or that, and begged him vigorously: "Master Mo, you better go and see my master first, the eldest young master is just gone, he can't have any more accidents, as soon as he falls, the Shao family will be in chaos." ”
"I'll say it again, give me a careful look at the main personnel of your Shao family." Mo Xianye said with a dark face.
Steward Shao stomped his feet anxiously, but he still resigned himself to the fate of the seniority: "The old lady of our family passed away the year before last, and there are only two sons under his knees, my lord is the eldest son of the long house, with outstanding ability, and naturally took over the main industry of the Shao family, the old man gave birth to three girls and two men, the three young ladies are all married, the eldest young master has just passed away, and the young master is still in high school." ”
"The master's only younger brother is the illegitimate son of the old lady outside, he was exiled for 18 years before he recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestors, he was born idle, he was mixed outside for most of the year, he was romantic, he was forty years old and did not have a family, he was all raised by our master, and the other clansmen could not count for a while, once my lord fell, the little young master was lonely, and the second master was not in tune, and those clansmen who were eyeing him were afraid ......"
"Stop! Let me ask you, if anyone in this family wants to harm your master's family, who do you think is the most suspicious? Mo Xianye asked.
Steward Shao immediately became serious, crossed his fingers and said, "This is indescribable, it is possible to see anyone." ”
Mo Xian's head was full of black lines, and he asked again: "Is the feng shui master who sets up the formation for Shao Kang invited by yourself?" Do you know the details of him? ”
This sentence gets to the point.
If someone wants to harm Shao Kang's family, they will start from two aspects.
The first possibility is to directly use the feng shui master to kill Shao Kang, and then implicate the entire Shao family, but the feng shui master will not stir himself into it, so this hypothesis can almost be ruled out; Another possibility is that the feng shui master invited by the Shao family is either inferior to others, or is targeted by the enemy.
"Oh, this feng shui master is my second master met outside, he is indeed very capable, he has been at my house for a few years, he has helped a lot, he was very sure of things, I don't know how, it became like this, hey, creation makes people." Steward Shao shook his head worriedly.
Mo Xianye twisted his brows, and suddenly said, "Where is the second master of your family now, can you get in touch?" ”
"Who knows where he is fooling around all day, he hasn't seen anyone for three months, he didn't even show up at the funeral of the eldest young master, he can't die anyway, there is a mess at home, I can't care about him." When Steward Shao mentioned these two masters, he was repulsed all over his body.
"Is there anything close to him in the old mansion? Find me one, preferably one that has been in contact recently. Mo Xianye commanded.
Steward Shao was confused, but he didn't dare to slack off, so he went immediately.
I was also in a fog, and walked over and asked, "Do you suspect that second master?" ”
"Anyone is possible." Mo Xianye glanced at me, then raised his feet and went upstairs, "Let's go and see Master Shao's situation first." ”
As soon as he pushed open the door of Master Shao's room, he suddenly felt cold, and on the bed, his hands kept tearing in mid-air, and his feet kicked hard, as if something was pressing on his body and attacking him.
The female ghost has already arrived!
I raised my foot and wanted to go in to catch ghosts, but Mo Xianye grabbed me and shook his head at me, I looked puzzled: "You don't want to make a move, and you don't allow me to save people?" ”
"It's not time yet." Mo Xianye said, gently closing the door again, at this time, Steward Shao trotted up and handed Mo Xianye a lighter.
"The second master rarely comes to the old house, and there are not many things left here, this is when he came over three months ago, he asked me for a cigarette lighter, and he didn't take it with him when he left, this ...... All right? ”
Mo Xianye took the lighter, squatted down, and kept folding paper cranes with yellow paper.
I saw that he had used this trick of paper crane tracking, and I didn't dare to disturb him, I watched him fold seven paper cranes, nodded his eyes, wrapped the lighter and burned it, only to hear a 'bang', the lighter exploded, Mo Xianye stretched out his hand again, it was already confirmed, and turned his head to explain to Steward Shao: "You now take your men to the southwest, don't make any movement, don't go out of the villa for five hundred meters, and bring the people you catch back immediately." ”
"People? Who? Steward Shao was stunned.
I hurriedly pushed him: "If you are told to go, you will go immediately, if you miss the hour, your master will be saved." ”
Steward Shao answered, and went to work non-stop.
At this time, Mo Xianye kicked open the door of Master Shao's room, and Master Shao's movements on the bed stopped abruptly, Mo Xianye stepped forward a few steps, I only saw a blue light flashing between his hands, the room was cloudy, and the window that was originally closed was smashed by something, and the glass slag fell to the ground.
Mo Xianye withdrew his hand, and Master Shao let out a long howl and fainted.
"You let that female ghost run away again?" I ran over and asked, seeing that he made a move, he was obviously a master, why did he want to let go of the female ghost so many times?
Mo Xianye clapped his hands, grabbed me by the collar and carried me out, I wanted to scratch him with my teeth and claws, but he said in a deep voice: "It's not your turn to teach me how to do it, now go to the basement, guard the door of the room in the basement, I won't call you up, and you won't leave at a step." ”
"You're not with me?" I asked as I grabbed him with my backhand.
He pulled his hand away and pushed me: "Praying mantis catches cicadas, I have to be the yellow finch." ”
"Hey, you mean let me be that cicada?" I was furious, "You promised to help me, but now you want to hurt me." ”
Mo Xianye sneered: "You don't want to be a cicada enough, don't worry, with me, you can't have an accident, but you have to ensure that those two little cicadas can't break through the basement door, otherwise things will be really difficult." ”
