Chapter 8: The Truth
We humans know very little about our own brains, and less than 10% of our brains are actually used, and the rest are dormant, and through some kind of stimulation, it is possible to stimulate jaw-dropping magical abilities. The mysterious Taoist priest used golden needles to stimulate the acupuncture points in the brain, stimulating the brain potential of the four Taoist priests who were not dead, and adding spells and spells to turn them into zombie-like fighting machines.
Knowing the way to crack it, we were all in high spirits, Xiaoxue ran out of my body again, attacking the demons to drag them for me, Lin Mei fought with the zombie head-on, I relied on my speed to raid the back of the zombie, and pulled out the three golden needles in the back of his head. As soon as the golden needle was pulled out, Huo Zhuang's whole body immediately went weak and fell to the ground, unable to move.
Putting down a stiff body, the pressure on me and Lin Mei has been relieved, and soon I pulled out another live stiff golden needle. I had a very weird feeling that it was like deflating a tyre, and as soon as I pulled out the valve core, the tyre went flat...... In fact, in terms of fighting ability alone, these four live stiff are not very terrible, I can carry two or three alone, the most terrible thing is that they are not afraid of pain, they will not be injured and will not die, this is the most desperate and terrifying place.
In less than two minutes, the four living zombies were all brought down by us, and due to the large area of burning reeds, the mist and yin qi had been dispersed by the smoke and fireworks, and the evil ghosts who were fighting with Xiaoxue disappeared one by one. I suddenly woke up, it must have been the Taoist priest who had taken away the magic weapon, and the evil ghost would disappear, so I immediately ran to the reeds to find the Taoist priest.
Soon I found Chen Xing lying on the ground, she was already unconscious, but I did not see the shadow of the Taoist priest. Lin Mei and I separated and went around in a circle for most of the time, but still didn't find it, there were four evil ghosts who were bitten by Xiaoxue, but they didn't die or escape, it may be that the Taoist priest left four magic weapons to contain us, and he took the opportunity to escape.
The culprit has not been removed, and I cannot get rid of the hatred in my heart, but I have no idea which direction he has fled, and there is a long reed swing along the river, and if I chase him in the wrong direction, I will never find him.
"Mei, you go upstream!" I yelled at Lin Mei and quickly ran downstream.
I ran wildly for two or three miles, but I still didn't see a figure, it was impossible for the Taoist priest to run too fast, I was worried that if I chased in the wrong direction, Lin Mei would be in danger, so I hurriedly turned around again. I climbed the levee to look out, but I didn't see the Taoist priest, but some flashlights flashed in the direction of the village, probably because the fire by the river had alarmed the villagers, and someone had come out of the village to check.
I had no choice but to go back, and at this time, Xiaoxue had already killed the four evil ghosts and hid in the magic weapon, and the fire also burned near Chen Xing. I couldn't let her die like this, so I ran over to carry her, xiangshang swam in the direction, and didn't go far before I met Lin Mei who came back, obviously she didn't find the Taoist priest who escaped. This stinky Taoist priest was cunning to the extreme, barely confronting me from beginning to end, and always hiding behind him and using insidious methods.
I was afraid that I would be discovered by the villagers, so I continued to walk hundreds of meters before letting go of Chen Xing. I was so angry that I wanted to smash her head with a punch, but I couldn't let her die so easily, I had to ask her to be so ruthless, so vicious, that she colluded with outsiders to kill my master.
Chen Xing was neatly dressed, breathing evenly, and didn't seem to be injured, but somehow he was unconscious, I looked at Lin Mei, and Lin Mei also shook her head. That Taoist priest is proficient in the method of piercing acupoints, could it be that he was pierced at the acupuncture points? I parted her hair and looked closely, and sure enough, there was a gold needle on the top of her head, and there was also one on the back of her neck, both of which were pulled out, and she was able to move in less than half a minute.
Chen Xing opened his eyes and saw me, and immediately showed a look of surprise and joy: "Ah, you...... Are you okay? ”
"Are you alright?" I gritted my teeth with hatred, "Don't you want me to die, why do you care about me?" ”
"No, no, no, you misunderstood, I want to help you!" Chen Xing hurriedly struggled to sit up, tears flashing in his eyes, and he looked aggrieved.
Obviously, she led someone to kill the master, and caused my mother to have a heart attack and died, and she still pretended to be innocent, I was furious, and slapped her hard and fell to the ground: "You slut, do you dare to say that you didn't bring those Taoist priests to kill my master?" ”
Chen Xing wanted to scream, but I immediately grabbed his throat and couldn't make a sound. She pushed my hand hard with both hands, but how could she push it away? I had a strong urge to strangle her like this, but when I saw her tearful, painful and frightened appearance, my heart softened a little, and my hand loosened a little.
"Ahem, ahem...... I, I am...... Wronged......" Chen Xing said with difficulty.
Lin Mei also took my hand: "Big brother, you let her say, I don't think she really wants to harm Master." ”
The reason why I thought it was Chen Xing who took the initiative to harm the master from the beginning was because only Chen Xing saw that the Kun hexagram jade talisman was in the master's hands, and those Taoist priests must have come to find the jade talisman, so who else was she informing? But Chen Xing's expression at this time didn't seem to be pretending, I was a little puzzled, and my hand loosened a little: "Don't scream, tell me in detail from beginning to end, if there is half a lie, I will kill you immediately!" ”
Chen Xing took a few breaths and whimpered, "I, I...... After I left that day, I wanted to find someone to help you get rid of the vixen, but I ran to many places and couldn't find anyone who really had the ability. I'll come back to you again, and I happened to meet five Taoist priests on the road, and they seem to be capable, so I accosted them......"
I'm right, should I call her stupid, or should I blame myself for telling her about Xiaoxue in me? I just wanted to scare her away, but she thought I was still under vixen.
Xiaoxue scolded angrily in my heart: "Stupid woman, pig brain, so stupid that there is no cure, and she actually lured a wolf into the house......"
Chen Xing froze and continued: "As soon as I said your address and name, they said that they knew you and came to help you, so I left with them. Later, they asked me if I had seen a fan-shaped piece of jade, and if I had heard anything you had ever heard about what the ghost cottage had gotten, and asked a lot of questions...... I began to suspect that they weren't here to help you, but to steal your things, so I tried to run away, but they caught me......"
I sighed in my heart, it turned out that the five Taoist priests knew that the jade talisman was in my hands, and they also knew the Fierce Ghost Cottage, so it must be related to the people who went to the Fierce Ghost Cottage at that time. Even if there is no Chen Xing to lead the way, those five Taoist priests will find my house sooner or later, Lin Mei and my mother are only afraid that they will be poisoned - although Lin Mei is strong in martial arts, she is invincible with two fists and four hands, if the enemy catches my mother as a threat, will she dare to move?
Chen Xing continued: "They forced me to lead the way, I was afraid that they would harm you, so I took them to your master's house, thinking that your master was very powerful and would defeat them, but I didn't expect it, I didn't expect your master to ...... I really didn't know they were going to kill your master! ”
Lin Mei and Xiaoxue and I were speechless, Chen Xing didn't know that Master was just an empty shelf, only theory and not much strength. But she can't be blamed for this, usually the master is better than the apprentice, and leading the enemy to the master and letting the master defeat the enemy is the best way she can come up with. Even if she has some selfish intentions, it is to protect me, although she has done something stupid, but the original intention is haode...... I suddenly felt a little guilty, I blamed the good guy and was too rough with her.
Chen Xingdao: "Coming out of Master's house, I deliberately took them around the village, hoping that someone would find them, but I didn't meet anyone on the road, but fortunately, when Zuihou went to your house, there was no one in your family." ”
I glanced at Lin Mei and gasped, if Chen Xing brought five Taoist priests to my house first, Lin Mei and my mother might be killed. If it weren't for Chen Xing taking them on a long detour, Lin Mei and my mother would have been blocked at home by the Taoist priests, and I must admit that it was her wit and hard work that saved Lin Mei and my mother.
My boundless hatred for Chen Xing is completely gone, because she doesn't want to harm me or my master, she just wants to help me get rid of the fox spirit, and she hasn't done anything wrong. She is just a rural girl, she is still a school student, she has limited experience, she has limited knowledge of ghosts and goblins, and I didn't make it clear in order to scare her away, how did she know that Xiaoxue is now my friend? If it weren't for the fact that she met five Taoist priests and tried her best to deal with them, I was afraid that things would be even worse, and even Lin Mei would have been poisoned.
"Where did those Taoist priests come from? What's their name? "My hatred was completely transferred to five Taoist priests, to be precise, to one Taoist priest in Zuihou.
Chen Xingdao: "I don't know, they have a strong accent, they are definitely not from this province, I was caught by them after I escaped, and I was knocked out by them, and then I was sometimes awake and sometimes unconscious, I don't know how much time has passed, where I went." ”
"What they look like, you tell me in detail."
Chen Xing thought about it and told him all the appearances of the five Taoist priests, four of which I had already seen, and they were inseparable from the ** she described. The Taoist priest who escaped was about fifty or sixty years old, with small eyes, big bags under his eyes, high cheekbones, big ears, and a black mole the size of a soybean on his left ear. I have never seen this person before, how can he know about the jade talisman and the fierce ghost cottage?
When Lin Mei, Lao Lin, and Wu Zhangya and I left the Fierce Ghost Cottage, many people rushed to support Lu Chengshan, and they later stayed in the Snake Intestine Valley for six or seven days, and it was possible that they knew about the jade talisman from Lu Chengshan's mouth, and then leaked it out. I haven't seen these people at all, so there is no way to investigate, but Lu Chengshan is not suspicious, because he knows where my house is, if he sends someone, he doesn't need Chen Xing to lead the way, and he will go directly to my house.
It seems that I blamed a lot of people, fortunately I didn't kill Chen Xing on the spot impulsively, otherwise I wronged the good people and let the wicked get away with it...... But Lu Chengshan is not a good person? Although Chen Xing has no malicious intent, after all, my master was killed by someone she brought, and my mother also died of fright because of this, how can I have no mustard at all?
