Chapter XXV
The cellar was very damp and poorly ventilated, and I couldn't sleep when I was lying on the floor.
The lack of oxygen caused by poor air circulation is one thing, but the most terrible thing is the feeling of coldness.
Recently, the temperature in Sichuan has a downward trend, especially this morning, when we just arrived at the pigsty to do business, the cold wind has been blowing without stopping, and it looks like it is going to rain.
Qin Xiaolan's physical fitness was not very good, huddled in the corner, and kept sneezing.
Seeing this situation, Sister Yang approached with a few other girls, surrounded Qin Xiaolan in the middle, and helped her keep warm.
That's when I realized that I was wearing a coat.
"Excuse me...... I didn't expect ....... just now."
I smiled awkwardly, took off my coat, and threw it directly to Sister Yang.
"It's fine." Sister Yang nodded and put her coat on Qin Xiaolan.
"Thank you, Brother Shen." Qin Xiaolan whispered to me.
I sat cross-legged on the floor, feeling much better, and my head was less dizzy, so I turned around and asked them, "Are there any sharp weapons here?"
"Scissors, knives...... As long as you can cut things! ”
"Nope." Sister Yang sighed: "There is nothing in this cellar, they also use plastic bottles to send water over, and finally send a meal, or use an enamel jar to call......."
"What do you want a weapon for?"
The cold girl looked at me and asked me suspiciously, "Are you going to fight with them?" ”
"Scholars don't use knives to kill people, and neither does Sir." I shrugged: "If I can find this tool, my chances are much better because it's ........"
Before I could finish my sentence, the girl shook her hand sharply and threw a long strip of metal in front of me.
Looking down, it was a severed saw blade.
"I took it from their house when I was caught." The girl said calmly.
"Are you going to use this for self-defense?" I picked up the saw blade, looking a little excited.
She shook her head and said, no.
"I killed myself." When the girl said this, her tone was calm and frightening: "If you cut the artery, the gods can't save it." ”
When I got this answer, I couldn't help but be stunned, and I didn't say much, so I got busy silently.
In addition to the jacket I gave them, there were two other clothes, a thin sweater and a pure white long-sleeved shirt.
All I need now is a shirt.
"What are you cutting your shirt for?" Sister Yang asked me.
"Draw a talisman." As I spoke, I carefully began to cut the shirt, dividing it evenly into deciles.
Each piece of cloth has a different shape and requires further processing.
Hearing my answer, Sister Yang and the others couldn't help but be a little curious, and they all gathered around.
"Brother Shen, isn't it used to draw talismans to ward off evil spirits?" Qin Xiaolan asked me curiously, "Do you want to help them exorcise ghosts?" ”
"It's not." I shook my head: "It's for the living." ”
At this point, I had already cut out the first cloth figure with a saw blade, looked up at the exit twice, and made sure there was no movement, so I continued to work.......
"Others are cultivators, but I am cultivating the way of descending."
When I was idle, I chatted with them, which was kind of a distraction, and the tense atmosphere eased a lot.
"Descending?"
"Yes, I learned the technique of descending, and my cultivation is naturally descending." I smiled: "The subjugation technique can be used to exorcise evil spirits and suppress ghosts, and it can also be used to harm people." ”
Qin Xiaolan's eyes widened, she looked at me in disbelief, and asked me if this was true or fake, but don't lie to them!
"Descent?" Sister Yang seemed to have been in contact with this matter, and looked at me suspiciously, and said: "When I was doing business in Guangdong, I heard others say that it seems to be a partial magic in the mainland, which is not very common. ”
"But no, if this kind of spell becomes orthodox, then the mainland will definitely have to mess up." I laughed.
After putting the ten pieces of cloth into the villain, I bit my fingertips with one bite and drew a charm on the villain with the blood from my fingertips.
At this time, I was preparing for the Shen family's scattered door descending technique, which was also the most practical thing that the old man had taught me recently.
When he was fighting with Miao Wuren, he also used this trick.
Fall asleep.
"This kind of lowering technique is also spread in other sects of lowering the door, but each family has its own way of playing, and our Shen family's sleeping body lowering is the most flexible ........"
"With the power of the charm, the yin qi under the three feet of soil is passed, and then converted into qi reduction, and then the qi is used to attack the human body......."
"A living person who is fascinated by sleep will fall asleep for an hour or not wake .......up for three days."
After the old man finished talking to me, he also seemed a little emotional, and he couldn't stop shaking his head and sighing.
"You see, it's so simple to deal with the living, and if you want to deal with the wronged, it's much more complicated, so ah, the favorite job of our gentleman who descended the door is to put a knife on the living person."
A cloth man corresponds to a charm, and it also corresponds to a separate breath reduction.
I have prepared a total of ten cloth men, which means that I can only defeat ten enemies.
These things can't be reused, so when you use them, you have to use your brain, and you can't just use them up.......
"Is this ready?" Sister Yang saw that I had put the cloth man in my pocket, so she asked me.
"It's finished." I laughed.
Sister Yang was about to ask something more, when she heard a bang, and the iron door on the ceiling was opened again.
When the ladder was lowered again, Sister Yang and the others had already run back to the corner, squatting one by one.
"Coming?" I sat cross-legged on the floor, half-squinting, looking at my eldest son, who was sweating profusely.
He didn't come alone this time, he was followed by four middle-aged men, all of whom were villagers from his village.
Looking at their expressions, it seemed that they were frightened.
Everyone's faces were as white as paper, and they were still shivering as they climbed the ladder.
"Li Xiu is here......." The eldest son walked up to me tremblingly, looking at me with fear and nervousness, and from time to time he turned his head and glanced out of the exit.
"And then?" I couldn't help but smile and look at them mockingly: "The gentleman you invited showed his might?" ”
The eldest son gritted his teeth and said, "He's dead." ”
Although I was relieved to get this answer, I couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Li Xiu...... It's ruthless enough....... Wouldn't it be nice to scare Mr. away like he did....... How did you still kill people??
"Go up and have a look." The eldest son whispered.
"What are you going up there for?" I shrugged my shoulders: "See the scenery or eat a snack?" ”
The eldest son clenched his fists and looked at me almost pleadingly: "Help us...... All right? ”
"I'll help you, what good can I do?" I asked rhetorically, "Can you let me go?" ”
"Yes!! I'll let you go now!! The eldest son hurriedly said, "What are you talking about!" I will never embarrass you again!! ”
"Where's your father?" I asked.
"It doesn't matter if he dies or not!! I don't care if I can come back or not!! As long as you can get that female ghost away!! ”
Hearing him say this, the smile on my face became a little brighter again.
"Okay, let's turn big things into small things, that's what you mean, right?"
"Yes!"
"In this way, the work must be done well, and the tail must not be rotten." I smiled and said, "I'll help you get rid of Li Xiu, what about your father, and I'll let the fat man return it to you, but ......."
As I spoke, I lifted my hand and gestured to the women huddled at the foot of the wall.
"I have to take these girls."
Originally, I thought that my eldest son would agree decisively, but I didn't expect him to refuse faster than anyone else.
"No way!" The eldest son's expression was very firm, and he refused without hesitation: "They were all bought with money!" If you take them away, you will destroy the incense in our village! ”
"Your lives are still more than incense?" I frowned and asked him, "Can't tell the difference?" ”
"It's really not going to work!" The eldest son gritted his teeth, thought for a while, and then said, "That's it, I'll take a step back, these women have to stay, you can't take them all, you can only take one." ”
At this time, even if I didn't look back, I could still feel the pleading gaze.
"Mr. Shen, you take Xiaolan away." Sister Yang opened her mouth coldly, and her tone was very calm, as if she had seen it: "Here, she is the youngest, and she will be ruined if she stays here for a lifetime." ”
"No, you don't."
Without looking back, I said, "No choice." ”
As soon as the words fell, I slowly stood up and looked at my eldest son without giving an inch.
"Or, you trade them for the lives of everyone in the village."
"Or, I'll just watch you die......."
"You're not afraid I'll kill you?" The eldest son glared.
"I'm afraid." I nodded, and frankly said, I'm more afraid of death than anyone else, but I'm more afraid of one thing.
The eldest son was stunned and asked what it was?
I sighed, put my right hand in my pocket, and clutched the stack of cloth figures.
"Conscience."
