Chapter Twelve: The Soul Eater Curse

The first to notice that I was unconscious was Li Xiaohua.

He thought that since his master and uncle came to my house to chant sutras, he estimated that he would have to eat fasting and chant Buddha for a few days, and he would not be able to live a day like this.

So he came to me early in the morning to borrow some money and was going to go to the gambling house for a few days.

As a result, he found that no matter how much he screamed, he couldn't wake me up, so he panicked and hurried to find my mother.

He said that when I fell unconscious, my face was horribly pale, my lips trembled, and I didn't know what to say.

My mother hurriedly asked Lang Zhong to ask, some said that they had hysteria, some said that they were infected with the plague, anyway, they used all the medicine, but they couldn't wake me up.

My mother was panicked and anxious, crying in a mess, and the maids next to her knew that something had happened to the owner, and they were silent for a while, and they didn't dare to come out.

My father also frowned, and immediately asked Lan Youquan to come over and ask, Lan Youquan didn't know, my father was so angry that he slapped the tea case and splashed Lan Youquan's soup!

"Young Master, how honorable! What you have done and eaten at home, will no one know about this huge Lu Mansion! ”

At this moment, a petite figure flashed out, and with a "poof" sound, my father knelt down.

This kneeling man is none other than him.

It's the little girl Alain!

My father saw that he was the youngest domestic helper in the family, and he seemed to be half angry, but he stepped forward a few steps forward to help the girl up, bowed his head and asked, "Miss Alan, where did the young master go out?" You're going to tell the truth! ”

Everyone was thinking about whether they had eaten something wrong, but they didn't expect Alan to bow his head and reply with a sentence, which scared everyone into a six-god master!

I only heard this girl crying: "Alain has made a big mistake! Let the young master fall for the demon! ”

Then she told my father all about our encounter with two arms, our strayed into the stream, and what I said about the burning of the snake cave.

After hearing this, my father showed a worried expression, turned his head and asked, "Miss Alain! Are you saying that you didn't see anything, but Fusheng himself said that he burned a snake cave and killed a giant python! So do you suspect that Fusheng has fallen for the demon? ”

Alain wiped away a handful of tears and nodded.

My father fell on the chair, shook his head, and sighed: "If you are sick and poisoned, there are still medicinal stones to solve, but if it is really evil, how can this be good?" ”

When my mother saw my father, she was helpless, and she cried even more, and the people next to her couldn't persuade her.

At that moment, a loud inquiry came from outside the door.

"Old donor Lu, if it is a demon, can you let the little monk take a look!"

Everyone hurriedly looked, only to see the maids and family members parting to the side, and two monks walked in from outside the door.

Li Xiaohua looked at it, it was none other than his own master Fa Ji and uncle Fa Xing.

Fa Ji clasped his hands together, bowed his head and said: "Before the little monk became a monk, Zeng Tian was a disciple of Xuanmen, and he knew some Taoism, or he could do his best. ”

When Li Xiaohua heard this, he was so shocked that his tongue was about to fall off, he had followed Faji since he was a child, and his master had been a Taoist priest of Xuanmen, and it was the first time he had heard this.

My dad was also a little surprised, but nodded stunned.

After Fa Ji paced in, he folded his hands and bowed his head to the open space on his right and prayed, "Amitabha, although the disciple has been in the empty gate for many years, he has to perform the Dao Gate today, which is really a last resort. But saving a life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, and the disciple has crossed this time, and I hope the Buddha will forgive me. ”

Then he turned around, walked slowly to my bed, looked down at my forehead, and listened to his command, "Come, get a bowl of water!" ”

My father immediately ordered: "Youquan, do it!" ”

Lan Youquan hurriedly went to the tea table on the side to get a bowl of water, and respectfully brought it to Fa Ji with both hands.

Fa Ji rolled up his two sleeves, pinched a sword trick in his right hand, dipped it in some water, drew a talisman in the air, closed it in front of his forehead, closed his eyes, and only heard him read in his mouth: "Taishang Laojun is as anxious as a law, open your eyes!" ”

Immediately, he saw Fa Ji's eyes light up, he immediately lowered his head and glanced at Fusheng's head, his brows gradually furrowed, his face was extremely cold, only to hear him say coldly: "Old Donor Lu, it seems that what Miss Alan said is true, Young Master Fusheng has indeed fallen into the spell of the demon, and it is likely to be the 'Three More Soul Devouring Spell'!" ”

My father was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Please also ask Master to point out, what is this 'Three Watches Soul Devouring Spell'?" ”

Fa Ji sighed before he said, "Speaking of this 'Three More Soul Devouring Mantra', it has a lot to do with my senior brother and the lay sect. ”

It turns out that before Fa Ji and Fa Xing were not yet monks, both of them were under the Yunxian Temple of Jinjing Mountain in Jiangxi, in addition to paying homage to the Xuanmen Taoist Taishang Laojun, there was also a side hall dedicated to Zhang Liying and Zhang Xiaotianshi, who cultivated in this mountain in the early years of the Han Dynasty.

Legend has it that although Zhang Xiaotianshi is a female streamer, but the talent is amazing, coupled with piety to the Tao, dedicated to cultivation, the Tao can be said to be a thousand miles a day, she has learned the Tao at a young age, and often benefits the township, so it is quite famous in the land of Wuyue.

As the saying goes, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, and a young girl is quite prestigious, so it is naturally easy for people to think about it.

Sure enough, Wu Rui, the king of Changsha, passed through Ningdu on the way back from pacifying Nanyue, and went up to Jinjing Mountain, and there was nothing to worship or anything, and it was directly the door of Yunxian Temple that was blocked by three media and six appointments, and the king of Changsha bluntly said that he wanted to marry Zhang Xiaotianshi as the inner room, and it was rumored that one was because of her beautiful appearance, and the king of Changsha coveted her beauty, and the other was because Zhang Xiaotianshi's prestige was far and wide, and the king of Changsha had the intention to use his name to shock the land of Nanyue.

This forced marriage, Zhang Xiaotianshi was also embarrassed, so he had to close the mountain gate, hide in the Yunxian Temple, and think hard about how to deal with it.

But what is even more unexpected is that in less than three days, Zhang Xiaotianshi actually agreed.

It's just that Zhang Xiaotianshi put forward a condition.

This condition is that Zhang Xiaotianshi explained that there is a Yunxian Cave behind Yunxian Guanshan, and there is a stone room in the cave, which can go up to the Immortal Mansion, and if Wu Rui, the king of Changsha, can help her dig through this hole, she will follow her wishes.

Wu Rui was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately sent a thousand elite soldiers to dig the stone mountain, and in a month he chiseled through the stone mountain, but after digging through the stone mountain in the stone room, there seemed to be a layer of dense black gas at the entrance of the cave to close the door, and the smell of black gas was extremely strong, and all the soldiers who approached fainted. Later, Wu Rui had no choice but to order people to surround the entrance of the cave.

As soon as the stone mountain was chiseled, Zhang Xiaotianshi bluntly said that he wanted to inspect it himself, Wu Rui asked Zhang Xiaotianshi to invite him over, and after Zhang Xiaotianshi came, he just walked towards the entrance of the cave with Tingting, and those fishy black gases actually subsided.

She took a few steps, and when she stepped out of the cave, she saw a white light suddenly shooting in from the entrance of the cave, this light was so strong that everyone couldn't open their eyes, and Wu Rui and the soldiers were in chaos. But Zhang Xiaotianshi did not flinch, only heard her look back and smile: "This month's time, thank you Lord Wang!" ”

"A month ago, the little woman was still a mortal body, but now she has cultivated into an immortal, and today she is about to ascend to heaven."

"The prince is kind and hardworking, and the little woman is grateful, so she left this monument, which contains advice, I hope the prince will not disobey!"

With that, Zhang Xiaotianshi stepped into the void with one foot and turned into a cloud of black smoke and left.

Wu Rui only understood at this time, he actually fell for Zhang Xiaotianshi's plan to delay the army, and suddenly his heart was angry, and he urgently ordered the soldiers to pursue, at this time, the white light disappeared, and the original chiseled hole "boom" actually closed! The soldiers who rushed forward raised their torches and took a look, only to see a stone tablet carved on the closed hole, which read: "The cycle of heaven is destined to forgive demons and ghosts, and set a spell here." Whoever breaks the secluded spring, the three watches devour their souls! Whoever harms the snake, the three more will devour its soul! Whoever insults this monument, three more will devour its soul! ”

Wu Rui stepped forward to look this stele up and down, and saw that Zhang Xiaotianshi left a spell, and when he read it carefully, he couldn't help but be very angry in his heart, and spit on this stele with a sound of "bah-", and ordered the soldiers to chisel the stele flat!

However, there was a military companion Sima who recorded this mantra and named it "Three More Soul Devouring Spells".

This unknown military Sima slightly passed the Xuanmen Dao method, and he secretly observed the forehead of the king of Changsha with the qi observation technique, but when he saw the three pillars of black qi soaring, it was really a bad omen. The military Sima immediately said to the king of Changsha: "Your Majesty, it is inappropriate to insult the monument just now. The black gas lingering in front of the king's forehead is really an ominous omen. Please be careful tonight! ”

When the king of Changsha heard this, his heart was even more unhappy, and he bluntly said that this Sima of the army was bewitching the people, and ordered someone to break his legs and expel him from the barracks, and then ordered the whole army to retreat from Jinjing Mountain, and set up camp at the foot of the mountain that night.

In the evening, the king of Changsha was drunk and slept in the handsome tent.

During the third watch, the dark clouds covered the moon, and the demon wind gusted.

Outside the account, Chen Xian suddenly heard the king of Changsha calling in a low voice: "The lonely king is thirsty, bring water quickly!" ”。

Chen Xian ordered the attendant to fetch water into the tent, and suddenly heard the attendant's exclamation, Chen Xian immediately entered the tent with a sword, and it was pitch black, only to hear the loud sound of "hissing" all around.

When the soldiers approached with the lantern, they saw countless snake-like black qi swimming in the big tent, and many of them rushed to the bed, and the speed was very fast, and they bit the limbs of the king of Changsha one after another! The king of Changsha's eyes were wide open, his lips were white, and he was still shouting: "Water comesβ€”water comesβ€”"

Chen Xian had never seen such a terrifying situation, and after a closer look, there was no blood flowing out of the snake-like black gas bite, and this King of Changsha was actually sucked dry by blood sucking alive!

No wonder the king of Changsha shouted thirsty, the blood in his whole body was sucked dry, how could he not be thirsty?

At this time, a soldier stepped forward with a sword to slash at the black qi, but was swallowed by the black qi, but all those who were swept into the mouth and nose by the black qi fell to the ground and died. Chen Xian hurriedly ordered the soldiers to stop, only a stick of incense, the king of Changsha was so angry that he died, and the rest of the soldiers came forward to check with the lamp, only to find that the king of Changsha had been sucked into a dried corpse.

The horror of death is indescribable!

After listening to what Chen Xian said, he stayed in the Yunxian Temple of Jinjing Mountain as a Taoist priest without saying a word, and secretly recorded all the circumstances at that time in the miscellaneous records of the Yunxian Temple.

Fa Ji had read the contents of the Unzen Temple when he was practicing, so he knew about this kind of spell.

Faji said: "Therefore, the little monk guessed that insulting the inscription, killing the snake, and breaking the secluded spring were the introduction to the spell of the 'Three More Soul Devouring Mantra'. Now the inscription has long been destroyed by the King of Changsha, and the Youquan is nowhere to be found, so there is only one way to kill the Xuan Snake to trigger this spell! ”

"Miss Alain," Faji turned to Alan and asked, "Did your young master kill the Xuan Snake in Shijingling?" ”

Alain listened to Faji's question, bowed his head and replied: "The slave didn't see anything, but the young master said that he went down to the snake cave, and I thought the young master was just joking!" ”

Fa Ji's face was extremely cold, and he stared at Alan and said, "What your young master said at that time, you must remember it carefully, this is very important!" ”

Alan also knew that the matter was very important, so he lowered his head and thought carefully for a long time, and suddenly said: "I remember, the young master told my mother about this, and the snakes in the snake cave are all black. ”

When Fa Ji heard this, he immediately understood, and said to my father: "Old donor Lu, it seems that Ling Gongzi has indeed fallen into the "Three More Soul Devouring Curse", and it must be related to killing the Xuan Snake!" ”

After listening to what Fa Ji said, my father hurriedly asked: "Master Fa Ji, you said that the dog was hit by the 'Three Watches Soul Devouring Curse', this matter is not trivial, I wonder if Master can conclude it?" ”

Faji nodded, his expression unusually solemn.

"The little monk used the spirit eye technique to observe the qi, and the three black qi in front of Lu Xiaoshi's forehead rushed straight into the sky, which was the same as the symptoms of the king of Changsha back then...... Therefore, it can be concluded that it is the 'Three More Soul Eater Curse'! ”

My dad was so anxious that his brow furrowed.

"I wonder if Master has a way to save him?"

Faji hesitated for a moment, pacing left and right for a few steps before nodding.

"Yes."

As soon as my father heard that Faji said that there was salvation, his brows eased a lot, and he chased after Faji and asked, "How to save it?" Please also ask Master to save the dog's life! ”

Faji sighed and said, "Cracking this method is difficult to say, easy to say. ”

"Please also explain it to Master!"

"As long as Lu Xiaoshi ......" Fa Ji's tone was calm and his eyes were blazing.

"Just get through the three watches!"
