Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Art of Wishing for You

The night is like ink, and the moon is like a hook.

Two pigeons fluttered their wings and flew out of the window. Ruyi stood in front of the window and watched the pigeon fly away.

"Miss, can General Hetian receive the letter?" Xia He asked behind him.

"Linghu also has his own network, and the ink artist also has his own channels, and the shopkeeper will definitely be able to transfer the letter to Brother Tian. Go to bed early, I don't know if there will be another knock on the door tomorrow, the master said that there have been several waves of coming. ”

The night was deep, silent, when everyone fell asleep, the blue crystal stone that Ruyi put into the sachet began to flicker by the moonlight, the light flickered, fortunately there was a layer of cloth to cover and everyone was asleep and no one noticed.

The next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, there was a lot of noise at the mountain gate.

"It doesn't matter what you said, ask your master to come out to see me." A fat and strong man shouted at the door. Behind him are a group of charlatans with swords and swords.

"My husband will not be a guest in Qingxiu. Everyone, please come back. Yuan Fei guarded the mountain gate without letting go, and behind him was a disciple standing with a spear.

"You little doll, it's better not to toast and not eat and drink." It was a middle-aged man next to him who looked a little sven, but didn't speak very well.

"What else do you say that Qing Xiu will not be a guest, didn't you measure the words of the people yesterday?" A woman in red with a long face and eyes said harshly.

At this time, the usually spacious hall in the Juxian Building was crowded with people at this time, and Mr. Guigu was sitting at the head, and below were some teachers and a group of disciples, discussing countermeasures.

But among the disciples, Ruyi and Zhang Yi are missing, Ruyi is not allowed to show up in Guigu, so where did Zhang Yi go?

Yunmeng Valley is surrounded by mountains on three sides, easy to defend and difficult to attack, but it is not without loopholes, the other side of the bamboo forest on the side of the bamboo building in Guigu is a cliff, but the terrain is not treacherous, and it is not impossible for people who want to climb it.

At this time, Zhang Yi was lying on a boulder near the edge of the cliff, with her head resting on her arms, bending her knees and crossing Erlang's legs, bathing in the morning light, leisurely. But those eyes that seemed to be squinting were skimming down the cliff from time to time.

At the foot of the cliff is a person who flies straight up with excellent light skills, this person has a long face with a pointed chin, a cheek and a lower bow, a pair of small eyes as thin as a slit but shining through, gray hair, a man who looks a little old.

Before the man stepped on the edge of the cliff, Zhang Yi suddenly burst out with a carp, and pointed a spear at the door of the man.

The man was caught off guard and spun around in the air, stepping on a raised stone under the cliff to break through to the right with his strength, Zhang Yi was willing to give him a chance, stepped a few steps to the right, and stabbed straight through again. When the man saw that the breakthrough had failed, he stopped forcing his way through the siege, and stepped on the convex stone under the cliff and flew parallel to the left.

Zhang Yi saw that he was about to escape, jumped off the boulder and chased to the left, but the man spun around and flew back and flew up, standing on the edge of the cliff. Zhang Yi turned around and stood opposite each other.

Seeing that the interception failed, Zhang Yi no longer forcibly stopped, and said casually: "Master said that you have profound internal skills and excellent light skills, and it is true. ”

The man did not reply, but was very cautious and cautious, moving his toes into the bamboo forest little by little.

Zhang Yi didn't care when he saw that he didn't speak, so he continued to speak and said in a loud voice, "It's okay if you don't speak, I can know very clearly in a while, let me think about which vassal kingdom you will be dressed in this dress?" Or which Jianghu sect. ”

Xia He had never seen Senior Brother Zhang Yi, who had never talked so much, was listening to it with amazement. Ruyi knew that this was Zhang Yi who was afraid that they would be exposed to attract his attention, so he couldn't wait any longer, so Ruyi flew up and picked up the lasso and went straight to the person.

The man was on guard with all his heart and Zhang Yi didn't pay attention to the surrounding situation, and a lasso had already fallen on him.

Ruyi and Xia He tightened the reins together and ran into the bamboo forest, and the man was dragged and staggered.

Zhang Yi saw that the opportunity was not to be missed, and a flying spear swept straight at the man's neck.

Xia He didn't feel at ease, ran over, took out a medicine bottle, poured out a pill, and stuffed it into the man's mouth. Ruyi also walked over at this time and asked, "What did you feed him?" ”

"The elixir that Miss practiced before, stretching out his feet and staring at the eye pill, as long as he immediately stretched out his feet and stared at the eyes, his whole body was stiff, but this is Miss's practice product, I don't know what effect it will have, maybe he will die." said with a look of regret.

The man retched at the sight. Zhang Yi rolled her eyes in her heart as she watched the two of them act.

After going back, several people worked together to lock up the man, and Zhang Yi asked Ruyi: "When did you practice so well in the lasso?" Ruyi said with a smile: "I still learned from Ruiqing before, but I just have a quasi-head, I don't have the strength, if I really run the horse, I really can't hold it." ”

"It turned out to be a bluffing show! I said that there have been many opportunities before, why don't you just wait for someone to stand still before you start? Zhang Yi also smiled.

"Miss also deliberately asked me to say what kind of eye-stretching pill it was. In fact, it's just a grain lock Gong Dan. Xia He grinned and mended the knife.

Ruyi also smiled but didn't explain, the Stretching Feet Staring Pill is still in a TV series called "Living Buddha Jigong" that I watched when I was a child, Jigong was wearing a ragged clothes, shaking a broken fan and muttering in his mouth, "Stretching out his feet and staring at the Eye Pill, only dissolved in the mouth but not in the hand", the living man ate the foot and stared at the eyes and died, and the dead ate it and came back to life. But these can only be recalled, and no one can communicate.

"There is indeed a foot-stretching staring pill, also known as the Fatal Pill. After taking a critical illness, the person will stretch out his feet and stare at the eyes, and the disease will be cured immediately. Zhang Yi explained seriously.

Now it's Ruyi's turn to be surprised, isn't this made up by the TV series, how can there really be such a miracle medicine. Just asked again, Zhang Yi didn't answer anymore.

"Let's talk about what to do now, shall we? He didn't say anything, we couldn't ask anything. Xia He said worriedly.

"This is actually easy to do, it's just ......" Zhang Yi didn't say anything halfway through his words, and Xia He was anxious.

"Senior brother, you can do whatever you say, we will all listen to you." Ruyi hurriedly dispelled Zhang Yi's concerns.

Zhang Yi picked out a few herbs from the master's medicine basket, took the pen and paper, and the few returned to the firewood room behind the bamboo building.

Zhang Yi first melted the herbs in a bowl of water, then fed it to the man to drink, waited for a while before taking out a pen and paper, wrote on the paper that seemed to be words and non-words, and drew spells that seemed to be charms and non-charms, and then recited words in his mouth to put the charm on the fire and ignite it, and circled around the person.

The man was sitting on the pyre, looking at Zhang Yi with frightened eyes with a gagged mouth, but at this time, he suddenly tilted his head and fainted.

Ruyi was looking surprised, but Xia He suddenly knelt on the ground and bowed down, and bowed in awe: "Great Wuxian." Ruyi looked at Xia He in confusion.

Zhang Yi was silent towards Xia He, and then said to Ruyi: "Let's hurry up and ask." Then he turned to the man and asked, "What nationality are you from?" ”

The man didn't open his eyes but opened his mouth leisurely and replied, "I'm from Yan Kingdom." ”

It was only at this time that Ruyi suddenly realized and blurted out: "Hypnosis." ”

Zhang Yi said calmly: "It's just a blessing technique." When I woke up in a while, I had nothing else to do. ”

Zhu Yuzhi is an ancient witchcraft, and the Warring States period was the heyday of witchcraft, but even in the heyday, there were very few people. Teachers are passed on to apprentices, and there are very few people who have learned.

Ruyi is skeptical of this kind of feudal superstition, although some books have mentioned witch doctors with the same origin, but she has always felt that those spells are more like a kind of spiritual psychotherapy. But I still feel very shocked to see it with my own eyes today, but this is not the time to say this, so it is important to hurry up and interrogate.

Only then did several people work together to interrogate and understand, it turned out that this person was the person who saw the treasure of the ancestor and spread the matter out. Thinking of Master's previous guess, sure enough, this person's internal strength and light skills are excellent, and his eyesight is excellent. After so many years of crawling, this person is now the right deputy envoy of the largest sect in the rivers and lakes, Hetumen.

This sect is not clear, but Zhang Yi is very clear, its background is complicated, it has infiltrated forces in many countries, branches are all over the country, and its main business is the killer business. If such a sect is entangled, I am afraid that there will be no peace.

Ruyi thought to himself, half of his ancestor was also unlucky, and he had no choice but to hide in the mountains under the helplessness of being entangled by such a sect.

But now if you are entangled again, I am afraid that it will not be so easy to get rid of, so I have to think of a way.

"Senior brother, is there a way to change his memory?" Ruyi looked at Zhang Yi expectantly.

Zhang Yi spread her hands helplessly, "Are you a god as a senior brother?" Master's acupuncture skills are very good, you might as well wait for Master to come back and ask Master. ”

Xia He, who had been standing behind with a look of awe, suddenly said, "The Great Witch Sage can change people's memories, I saw it when I was a child. ”

The two of them looked at Xia He together, but Xia He didn't dare to look directly into Zhang Yi's eyes, lowered his head and raised his eyebrows and said softly, "When I was a child, there was a great witch in the tribe who was very powerful, and there was a clansman who suddenly went crazy without knowing what evil he had fallen into, and his speech was reversed, and his memory was very confusing. ”

Zhang Yi frowned slightly, "Are you from the Chu Kingdom?" ”

"Yes, I was later sold to the Wei State."

"I'm not a great witch, I just know a little bit about it." Zhang Yi said, but looked at Ruyi.

Ruyi had also heard of the corpse chasers in Hunan, the Gu art in Yunnan, and the witchcraft in Sichuan, and Sichuan happened to be a large part of the current Chu State. It's just that she thinks it's more like legends. Now it seems that it has indeed existed since ancient times.

"Senior brother, you are really well-informed, thanks to you this time." Ruyi said sincerely.

Zhang Yi smiled before saying, "Senior sister, you are also very well-informed." However, please keep today's incident confidential and don't tell anyone, including Master. ”

After Guigu came back, he looked at the sleeping man, there was no trace of interrogation, but several apprentices said that they had already asked clearly, and they had some doubts in their hearts, but they didn't say anything.

Ruyi asked Guigu if he could change this person's memory, but Guigu didn't say yes or no, just asked them to go back and rest first, and he wanted to think again.

After Ruyi and them left, Guigu looked at some of the remaining paper ashes on the ground thoughtfully.
