Chapter 15: The Art of Soul Husbandry

The old woman threw the folded ingots into the bamboo basket, and took a new one from a pile of paper money to start folding.

This repetitive action seemed slow and reverent in her hands, as if she really believed that after the paper money was cremated, it would turn into a gold ingot to give to the undead of her relatives underground.

"I don't know." The old woman focused on the movements of her hands, her eyes were dull, her already aging face was a little more vicissitudes, and she said in a deep voice: "The person is gone, what is the point of asking this, I don't know anything more, you can go." ”

Coming out of Patriarch Ling's house, Shen Lingjun pondered, "I think it's very likely that he has been hit by soul magic. ”

Su Musha was stunned for a moment and said, "You mean that someone is manipulating him behind his back?" ”

Shen Lingjun walked with his hands behind his back and nodded: "I have seen people use this kind of evil art, and Patriarch Ling's performance is very similar to what he looked like after being hit by the soul dementorship, but the person who manipulates it needs a very strong willpower, otherwise it will be counterattacked." ”

Su Musha also didn't know much about dementorship, so he asked, "What will happen?" ”

Shen Lingjun's face turned whole, his lips opened lightly, and he said solemnly: "Go mad, go into the devil, the meridians flow backwards, and finally die of madness." ”

Evil magic has always been disgraced by the righteous path, let alone this kind of manipulation of others to achieve its goals. So if you really get backlashed, you deserve it.

Su Musha thought for a moment, and then said: "I heard my master say that in the martial arts today, the one who knows the most about soul dementorship is a person named Lady Diemeng. ”

Shen Lingjun smiled and glanced at him: "You're talking about Aunt Ruolan." Then he sighed: "But it was impossible for her to use soul dementorship more than ten years ago. ”

Su Musha nodded: "The master said that she lost all her martial arts and was blind, and later let your father take her in." ”

"Aunt Ruolan...... A poor man, too. ”

Su Musha stopped, looked at Shen Lingjun, and said, "The backlash of the soul dementorship? ”

Shen Lingjun shook his head and sighed and smiled: "Love debt." ”

……

The warm breeze was blowing, Shen Lingjun brushed away the broken hair on his face, and said slowly: "Back then, she somehow fell in love with a married man, and used soul dementorship to control him, and the two of them got better for many years, and they also had a child. But as the saying goes, there is always a day when you wake up from a dream, and a master happened to pass by and found that her husband had been infected with spiritualism, so he solved him. ”

Su Musha groaned: "According to what my master said, the more time passes, the deeper the soul will become, if she doesn't give up by herself, it is difficult to understand, and she can still make the soul dementor delirious." ”

Shen Lingjun nodded, his expression complicated: "Yes, there is indeed no one in the world who can do it except this master, and I don't know if it is fortunate or unfortunate for their husband and wife." ”

"Who?"

"Divine Doctor Nanlingzi!"

Su Musha nodded suddenly and said, "It's his words, it's indeed okay." ”

Shen Lingjun's fingers unconsciously tapped the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, and his eyes were far away: "Her husband was very painful after he woke up, and he thought that his wife and children were killed by her, and he had been with her for many years, and his heart was full of discouragement, and he hated her even more, so he thought about revenge." Later, when her husband first gave the child away, he poisoned her, and after all this, her husband committed suicide before he married his wife's grave. ”

For the sake of one's own selfish desires, the victim's family is ruined, no matter what, there is no sympathy. It's just that no one can be spared from this bad fate, which inevitably makes people sigh.

Shen Lingjun continued, with a sigh of emotion in his voice: "Later, she decided to be martyred, but she didn't die, so my father saved her, but she was blind, and then she didn't want to die, she wanted to find her child." ”

Su Mu covered his face expressionlessly, and said lightly: "This can be regarded as self-inflicted." ”

Shen Lingjun touched her nose, after all, she called Aunt Ruolan, she couldn't say anything, and said with a dry cough: "Although she finally deserved her husband and son died and her family was ruined, but my father said that she was a person who died once, and there is no Mrs. Diemeng in this world, only Ruolan, who is struggling to find her child." ”

"Has this Lady Butterfly Dream ever taken in an apprentice?"

Shen Lingjun thought for a moment and shook his head: "Do you suspect that the person behind the manipulation has something to do with Aunt Ruolan?" ”

Su Musha pondered: "The art of soul dementoring is not something that ordinary people can practice, and ordinary people can't even touch it. ”

Shen Lingjun stood in place and hesitated: "I'll write a letter to ask." ”

When the two went back, they saw Zhao Qi bored playing chess with himself, and Kagura and the play squatted next to the chicken coop to feed the chickens, which was quite harmonious.

didn't see Tang Tang and Shen Changfeng, Shen Lingjun estimated that according to Tang Tang's character, he would definitely not be able to stay, so he pulled Shen Changfeng out of the house.

Zhao Qi raised his head when he heard the movement, twisting a white child in his hand: "How is it?" ”

Shen Lingjun recounted like this, and finally said: "It is certain that someone is plotting behind the scenes, but it is not yet certain what the purpose is. ”

"Spiritualism? Speaking of this...... "Zhao Qi touched his chin and fell into deep thought.

Shen Lingjun sat down and asked, "Have you encountered it?" ”

Kagura patted the feed on his hands and reminded, "General, you have forgotten the battle between us and Tubo three years ago. ”

Zhao Qi slapped his palms and remembered.

Su Musha walked next to Shen Lingjun and spoke first: "Huangshui Battle." ”

During the play, he took out two eggs from the chicken coop and passed by: "You've heard it too." ”

Su Musha smiled slightly, his eyes full of appreciation: "The general's hundreds of thousands of troops defeated 300,000 good soldiers in Tubo, which is very exciting." ”

Zhao Qi waved his hand: "That's a hard bone, and we have lost a lot of people." ”

Shen Lingjun was more interested in soul dementoring than fighting, and reminded, "What about soul dementoring?" ”

Kagura poured tea from the boiling pot, and Zhao Qi dropped the white seed in his hand and recalled, "At that time, we were fighting with the earth rat at a critical time......

Kagura helped explain: "Tibet. ”

Zhao Qi changed his hand and raised a sunspot, and continued: "One night, I was a lieutenant general......

Kagura interjected: "Sun Zhiyuan." ”

Zhao Qi was angry and slapped the table: "You come, you come." ”

Kagura smiled and picked up a cup of tea and handed it over, saying, "The general drinks tea." ”

Zhao Qi pursed his lips, suddenly lost interest in speaking, and made a gesture for Kagura to speak.

So, Kagura jumped on the stone table and squatted, took over the conversation, and said, "That night, it was my turn to keep vigil with Liangyue. That Sun Zhiyuan suddenly appeared to assassinate the general, just like being in the middle of an evil spirit, his face was evil! His eyes were dry, and he only knew how to kill with a knife, and then I didn't feel the same as if I broke his arm. ”

"And then?" When Shen Lingjun heard it, it was indeed similar, but it was a little different.

Kagura shrugged: "Committed suicide, we checked for a long time later, except for finding out that he visited the flower building once, there is nothing of value, so we will treat him as evil." ”

Shen Lingjun touched his chin: "Isn't there anything suspicious in Hualou?" ”

Kagura shook her head and said with certainty, "Inside and out, I haven't spared even a single mosquito, it's all normal." ”

Su Musha thought for a long time and said, "Maybe it's related." ”

Shen Lingjun nodded: "It's a pity that the clue is still broken." ”

At this time, the door of the room, which had been confined for two whole days, finally opened, and Los Angeles came out first, unable to open his sleepy eyes.

Ye Qingzhi followed behind, her face was very bad, extremely pale, and bloodless.

Zhao Qi was frightened by her appearance, and rushed over with an arrow: "How is it?" ”

Ye Qingzhi was extremely tired, so her tone was not as cold and hard as usual: "I picked it up, although I can't lift heavy objects in the future, it's still okay to move normally." ”

Zhao Qi looked at her as if she was about to fall down at any time, and anger rose from his heart: "Lao Tzu is asking how you are, if you can hold on." ”

"I'm ......" Ye Qingzhi's body tilted and fell directly on Zhao Qi.

At sunset, the last trace of sunset sprinkled into the small courtyard, the summer became stronger and stronger, and the weather became hotter day by day.

When L.A. came back from outside, he just put the last pair of chopsticks on the scene.

Shen Lingjun stretched out his head and greeted: "Done?" ”

"Well, the child has been handed over to his parents, and Miss Ye has also said what needs to be paid attention to." Luo Cheng said as he scooped a scoop of water with a scoop of water to drink, and after drinking, poured the rest on his face and washed it.

Shen Lingjun brought a bowl of fish soup to drink, not to mention, this is fresh from the river and directly into the pot.

Shen Lingjun was satisfied, and the corner of his eye swept to Su Mushao who only drank wine, rarely ate vegetables, and didn't touch the fish soup, so he scooped a small bowl and handed it over.

Su Musha took it, with a fishy smell, inexplicably remembered those big fish, and put it down silently.

Zhao Qi came out of the room, walked to the table and sat down with a gloomy face.

Shen Lingjun knew that he cared about Ye Qingzhi, so he said: "It's okay, she's just tired, just get some sleep." ”

Zhao Qi also knew that Ye Qingzhi was definitely fine, but he was angry that this girl didn't care about her body.

Shen Lingjun's dark eyes turned, and he came up with an idea with a smile, "Why don't you wait for her to wake up and make up for her?" ”

Zhao Qi felt that it made sense, waved his hand, took out the aura of sitting on the battlefield and commanded: "During the play, the old hen in the chicken coop was stewed for Lao Tzu." ”

Scratching his head during the play, won't there be no eggs to eat tomorrow.

Los Angeles patted him on the head: "I'll buy you two catties of eggs tomorrow." ”

"What an old hen, I'm going to eat it too." A lively and beautiful voice came in one step ahead of others.

Shen Lingjun moved, giving some space to Tang Tang and Shen Changfeng: "Where have you been?" ”

Tang Tang pouted: "It's not fun, I saw a charred house after going around for a long time." ”

"What charred house?" Shen Lingjun asked casually while drinking the soup.

After eating a bowl of rice, Luocheng served another bowl, and said clearly: "It's the one in the west of the village, right?" ”

Tang Tang poked a fish with chopsticks, and was not interested: "Yes, it is said that a family has an accident and has been killed." ”

Zhao Qi raised his eyebrows: "Destroy the door?" How much immorality has to be done. ”

During the play, he sipped the fish soup in the bowl, smacked his tongue straight, listened to them, and asked curiously: "How did you destroy the door?" ”

Tang Tang and the rice bowl were so energetic that they didn't have time to take care of it, so Shen Changfeng replied on his behalf: "The house was on fire, and none of them escaped." ”

Shen Lingjun held the big bowl, and his face showed a little puzzled: "I see that the houses in this village are not far away, why is there no one to save them?" ”

Shen Changfeng picked up the chopsticks, frowned, and said, "It's strange here, the people in the village didn't hear the cry for help, so when someone found out, the fire was too big and there was no way to go in to save people." ”

"And, there's one strangest thing ever!" Tang Tang had a mysterious expression and interjected, "Guess, who is the person who set the fire?" ”

Everyone was very cooperative and said in unison: "Who?" ”
