As Joyce left, I retracted my gaze, put my mind back on the Seven Stars Bagua Array, and asked Chen Tiannan again, how long is there until 7 o'clock, he said, there is still one minute left.

I hummed, rubbed my face vigorously, made myself feel a little better, and began to work on the matter.

Many movies and novels describe the formation as extremely complicated, but in fact, the real formation is not very complicated, on the contrary, it is very simple, take this Qixinglin gossip as an example, it is simpler to start the formation, just drop a drop of blood on the red rope.

Soon, Chen Tiannan said, "Brother Jiu, it's seven o'clock." ”

Hearing this, without any hesitation, I asked Chen Tiannan for a dagger and cut my index finger. Someone will definitely say, why are you so troublesome, just bite your finger, and what kind of dagger do you take, isn't this a waste of time. All I can say is, you bite your index finger and try to see if you can bite and bleed.

Cutting my index finger, I dropped a drop of blood on the red rope, exhaled deeply, made three gestures to the east, and read in my mouth: "Six days and five calamities will not prolong life, five days will prolong life, five days will prolong life, five days and six disasters will be extended, six will be extinction, six will be extended, five or six will be prolonged, five or six days will be prolonged, and life will be extended. ”

After reading this, I made three waves to the east again, and shouted: "Get up." ”

As soon as the words ended, I felt that the atmosphere around me was indescribable, and I felt that the temperature seemed to be high. Seeing this situation, I breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, and was about to command Chen Tiannan's action, but who knows, that Wang Chuyao ran to my side panting, and said breathlessly: "Ninth brother... I... I... My right breast is exactly the same as you said. ”

I was stunned, and hurriedly gave her a look, meaning to let her stand far away, she didn't seem to understand, and was about to speak, I was a little anxious, once the Seven Stars gossip started, outsiders rushed in in a hurry, and they would make a mistake, and hurriedly waved their hands at her.

This time, she finally came to her senses, stepped back at her feet, and kept muttering a sentence in her mouth, "Brother Nine and I are the most affectionate and holy couple." ”

Hearing this, I ignored her, but put all my thoughts on the Seven Stars Bagua Array. I first looked at the location of the old witch's corpse, and then at Chen Tiannan and them, and the distance between them was about a distance of more than a meter. I remember that there is a saying in the gossip of Qixinglin, before casting the array, the two and four must be distinguished. These two four refer to the four main gates, the four corner gates, the so-called four main gates, that is, due east, south, west, and north, and the four corners of the gate are the northeast, southeast, northwest, and southwest corners, and then these two or four generations into the direction of the eight trigrams.

I took a general look, that Chen Tiannan stood in the position of Qian, that is, due east, and the body of the old witch was in the northeast direction, a small distance from Chen Tiannan, according to the Seven Stars Bagua Array, before the formation, from the position of Qian, to the left five steps, from the position of Kan to the right six steps, the position of Gen six steps back, the position of Zhen five steps back, the position of Xun to the right six steps, the position of the left to walk five steps to the left, the position of Kun to take six steps forward, the position of Dui to take five steps back, this kind of pace in the words of Feng Shui, called six or five days.

At that moment, I shouted at Chen Tiannan, "Take five steps to the left!" ”

He was stunned, turned his head to look at me, nodded, and took five steps to the left, and I shouted to the middle-aged man standing on the ridge and took six steps to the right.

Soon, I asked the eight of them to walk a few steps each, and the whole fishing net had appeared above the old witch's corpse, and the group of swallows still lowered their heads and gnawed at the corpse as if they could never eat enough, without any hesitation, I shouted at Chen Tiannan: "Arrested!" Meaning, let him put the net on the ground and step on it with his foot.

He shouted, "Good Rat! "I put the net on the ground and stepped on it.

Then, I shouted at several other middle-aged men, and they were caught, one, two, three... Eight, those big men learned Chen Tiannan's movements, put the fishing net on the ground, and then stepped on the fishing net with their feet, and tied the group of swallows tightly in the fishing net.

What puzzled me was that the swallows were still gnawing at the old witch's corpse under the pressure of the fishing nets.

"Brother Jiu, the situation doesn't seem right." Chen Tiannan said in a deep voice.

I kept my face calm and didn't speak, my eyes stared at the swallows, this was not right, according to the normal zoological reaction, the swallows should be struggling, and the swallows completely ignored the existence of the fishing nets, and still gnawed at the corpses, and several swallows were pressed to the ground by the fishing nets, and they still pecked at the old witch's corpse.

"Master, is your formation useless, why are those swallows still like that?" A thin middle-aged man next to Chen Tiannan spoke.

I was silent for a moment, and then walked in the direction of the net.

When I came to the fishing net, I squatted down and touched the swallows through the net, they were very wet, a little sticky, strangely enough, they didn't have any body temperature on them, they were like corpses, cold and cold.

Seeing this, I had an unbelievable thought in my mind, if this group of swallows had died from the beginning, their behavior was only controlled by the old witch with Gu worms.

At this thought, my back is cold, if this is the case, all the questions about swallows can be explained. However, there is one thing I don't understand, this group of swallows gnawed on the old witch's corpse, whether the old witch moved her hands and feet on the Gu worm before she died, and ordered the swallow to gnaw on her own corpse, or the old witch died, and the Gu worms on the swallows began to devour the lord.

I don't know the answer to this question until now, maybe it was the deceased who woke up before he died, or maybe it was the providence of God, which situation may be known only to the deceased himself.

Later, I touched a lot of swallows, and found that they were all lifeless, but only shells.

Discovering this phenomenon, I was stunned for a long time before I came back to my senses, took a deep breath, and didn't care that Yanzi was just a shell, so I asked Chen Tiannan and the others to exchange positions with each other, for example, from Qian's position to Kun's position, and Kan's position to Li's position.

By the time they had swapped places, the nets had twisted together, and the swallows were tightly wrapped inside. Since I had fifteen holes in the nets, many swallows fell out of the nets. Chen Tiannan asked me if I would like to put the swallows back into the fishing nets. I said that since it fell out of the fishing net, it means that those swallows have nothing to do with Su Mengke, so let him dig a pit and bury the swallows that fell out.

Let's talk about Chen Tiannan! It's just that there is no right line, I asked him to dig a pit and bury the swallows, this thing is good, and muttered: "It is said that the Gu insects in Xiangxi are very mysterious, I want to see what the Gu insects look like today." ”

As he spoke, he directly took out a dagger to separate the swallow's abdomen, and a Gu worm the size of a small thumb came out of it, so frightened that the thing jumped up and shouted, "Brother Jiu, help." ”
