Chapter 316: Silkworm Zombie (7)
"Mother, slow down, Uncle Chang can still deal with this little thing."
Yin Yuan grabbed the corner of Xing Ruyi's clothes, squinted his eyes, and looked at the group of women in front of him who were still fluttering wildly.
"But these are unarmed innocent women in front of him, according to Brother Chang's temperament, even if he sees that these people in front of him are a little weird, he will definitely not make a move, and he will hurt himself at that time."
"Don't worry, my mother is here, and Uncle Chang will be fine. On the way to Qingqiu in the future, you have to face these strange things, if you don't let Uncle Chang practice early and learn how to deal with it, what can you do in the future? It's hard to count on your mother to protect you along the way. ”
"Naturally not, according to Brother Chang's temperament, he would rather be injured himself than hide behind me and let me take refuge." Xing Ruyi looked at the mess in front of him, and was worried about Chang Tai's safety, and his heart became more and more anxious.
Chang Tai, who was surrounded by the crowd, no matter how late he realized it, he could see that something was wrong at this time. These guests, who were originally kind and shy, changed their appearance in an instant, their eyes were dull, and their expressions were cold. Like a marionette in a shadow puppet play, he only knows how to poke himself with a seven-inch wooden nail.
Although the cotton clothes in this winter are thick, they can't withstand the random poking of these women, if they are entangled for a while, the injury is light, and they are afraid that they will be poked into a hedgehog if they are not careful. But if he made his own move, he was worried that he would hurt these people, and spread the word, and he would lose the face of the first fast catcher in the capital, but he was afraid that it would set off some storms on the Yunjiaji and bring trouble and criticism to Ruyi's rouge shop.
As he thought about it, several wooden nails stabbed at him again. Chang Tai dodged, and the wooden nail in the woman's hand in front of him poked at the body of the other person. I saw that the man's eyelids rolled up, revealing a little white, and then he didn't move.
"Damn it!"
Chang Tai didn't know these evil arts, and he didn't know if there was poison on the wooden nails in front of him, but when he saw that the woman who was poked by the wooden nails was motionless, he was also a little panicked. He was not worried about his own safety, but about whether more people would be injured by mistake in this panic. So, in a hurry, he could only resort to the bad tricks that he was unwilling to use in the past.
Chang Tai saw the opportunity, lowered his body slightly, and took advantage of the fact that the women were rushing indiscriminately, and accurately and quickly swept their lower plate with the sword in his hand. When swinging the sword, it also used about three points of strength to ensure that these people could be swept down smoothly without injuring them.
Chang Tai's movements were extremely fast, just a sip of tea, and those people fell to the ground like autumn leaves. It's just that they fall quickly and get up quickly, especially those young women who haven't been stabbed by wooden nails, and they quickly bounce up from the ground and launch a second round of attacks against Chang Tai.
Chang Tai's face became ugly, he knew in his heart that these people must have fallen for evil magic, unless they were completely defeated by themselves, or stabbed by the wooden nails they were holding in their hands, otherwise they would be like those legendary zombies who were not dead or trapped, constantly attacking him. He is a martial artist, so he is naturally not afraid of entanglement with these women, but if he continues to be entangled like this all day, he will be a little impatient in his heart. While he was thinking about what to do, the women who stood up stood in the distance, staring at him with a pair of resentful eyes.
Chang Tai turned around suspiciously, but saw Yin Yuan winking at him twice, and then pointed at Xing Ruyi and said, "My mother is amazing, right?" ”
"Thank you Ruyi!"
Chang Tai is not stupid, he can see that it was not Xing Ruyi who just made a move, but Yin Yuan in front of him, who was winking at him. This kid seems to have been brought out by the fox, and if he knows some magic, he will not be surprised. Although I don't know why he counted these things on the punishment Ruyi, it was all good intentions, so he also cooperated with the punishment Ruyi and thanked him.
Xing Ruyi poked Yin Yuan's skull, walked to Chang Tai's side, and asked with concern: "Brother Chang, are you okay?" ”
"Don't worry, I'm fine, it's just that my clothes are punctured." Chang Tai said, sweeping the women with the corner of his eye: "Ruyi, do you know what happened to these people?" How can I look at these people as if they have fallen into an evil spirit? ”
"I don't know, but Yin Yuan said that these people have fallen for puppetry."
"Puppetry, what kind of spell is this? Could it be that these people were also brought in by that Taoist priest called Mo You? Why is this Taoist priest always haunted. ”
"This matter should have nothing to do with nothing." Xing Ruyi lowered his head and sniffed the smell on Chang Tai's body, "I heard Yin Yuan say that a general with his wife came up from the Yun family. Brother Chang's days in the Shendu are like Yichang, and he is a person in the court, can he know anything about this general? ”
"Ruyi, you're talking about General Li Yan, right?"
"General Lee? How did I hear that this general is not surnamed Li. ”
"Originally, the surname was Li. This general is a descendant of the Li family, and only because of those changes in the court, he has followed his motherhood since he was a child. Later, because of his hard work to kill the enemy, he made great achievements, and won the favor of the empress, plus some other reasons, he was granted by the empress to change back to the surname Li a while ago. ”
"It turns out that the general's surname is back to Li." Xing Ruyi looked like he was in a trance: "What about the general's wife, is Brother Chang familiar with it?" ”
"It's not familiar, it's just that I have a similar temper with this General Li, and we can talk about many things together, so we also have some intersections in Shendu. The general's wife is virtuous and virtuous, and she has a deep relationship with the general, usually where the general is, the general's wife will also accompany her, so she has also met a few times and said a few polite words. ”
"This general's wife can make incense powder?"
"Powder?" Chang Tai was slightly stunned, and then understood: "Ruyi, you also know that Brother Chang is a rough person, and he has never paid much attention to these things. It's just that if you want to do business with this general's wife, I advise you to accept this thought. ”
"Why?"
"The general is a person who fights on the battlefield all year round, and unlike the officials of the gods, his wife is naturally different from the wives of those officials. The general's wife I saw rarely dressed in such a gaudy way, and her clothes were mostly black and white, as if they were matching the general's dressing style. The beaded hairpin jewelry often worn by the wives of this official family is also extremely rare on the general's wife, and the most she wears is a woodcarved orchid hairpin. It is said that this hairpin was carved by the shogun himself. As for incense powders and the like, because the general is allergic to these fat powders, she should rarely use them. ”
"I see! is not incense powder, then this fruity wood fragrance should be brought by the general's wife. ”
"Fruity scent! Ruyi, are you talking about this? The general's wife does have a faint fragrance of fruit wood, and if she gets close, she will get some of it. Chang Tai said, looking down and sniffing his sleeve: "In the past, when I was in Shendu, every time I went back from the General's Mansion, I would be teased by Xiao Shengzi, saying that I went to Fireworks Willow Lane. Ruyi, your nose has always been Turin, I'm afraid you also smelled this smell on my body, and I heard Yin Yuan say that the general's wife had visited with the county commander in the morning, so he asked about the general and the general's wife, right? ”
"Ruyi's careful thoughts, after all, they still haven't been able to hide from Brother Chang's eyes." Xing Ruyi said as she walked over to Miss Tofu Shih Tzu Zhou to check her puppetry.
"When I was very young, I heard people say that one of the Maoshan spells can manipulate others, and the name is puppetry. It's just that this kind of technique, which is considered a forbidden technique in the Maoshan technique, will be expelled from the Maoshan Sect once it is used. ”
"Forbidden?" Chang Tai was slightly startled, and he knew in his heart that this so-called puppet technique must be a bad spell.
Xing Ruyi nodded: "That's right, it's a forbidden technique." Because this puppet technique uses the eight characters of people's birthdays, with the scarecrow using blood as a medium, and then using spells to communicate and cast spells. When that person's birth date is in harmony with the scarecrow, that person's body will be controlled by the scarecrow. It's just that the puppet technique we see in front of us seems to be more clever than the puppet technique in the Maoshan technique. ”
Speaking of this, Xing Ruyi secretly used ghost magic and gently tapped Miss Zhou's body with his index finger. Miss Zhou's eyes rolled blankly, moved from Chang Tai, and followed, holding a seven-inch wooden nail in her hand, and turned to Xing Ruyi stiffly.
"The eyes are hollow, the movements are stiff, and they are very unnatural, these are all intuitive manifestations of the puppetry." Xing Ruyi said, shaking his hand in front of Miss Zhou's eyes: "This puppet technique also has a name called soul control technique, which literally means that it uses magic to manipulate people's souls. Ordinary puppetry can only control people's bodies, but the consciousness of the controlled person is clear, but these people in front of us are not even conscious. ”
"Ruyi, you mean, they have been manipulated by their souls, so they don't realize what they're doing." Chang Tai looked at the seven-inch wooden nails in the hands of those people.
"That's right! The people in front of us are all puppeteers who are completely controlled. Xing Ruyi approached Miss Zhou, first glanced at the seven-inch wooden nail she was holding in her hand, and then opened her eyelids and looked: "From the perspective of seeing a doctor, Miss Zhou is already in a deep coma at this time, and she has no autonomous consciousness. ”
"Is there really such a magical spell in this world?" Chang Tai muttered to himself and looked at Yin Yuan.
He knew that foxes were not mortals, and many people in this world were not mortals. Therefore, he also guessed in his heart whether the person who secretly controlled the puppet did not belong to this world. Is the other party targeting Ruyi, or is it himself?
