23, Tianling Taoist

Wu Biao didn't speak this time, after getting out of the car, a few of us walked to the Lotus Pavilion through the nine-curved Linglong Bridge, but there was still a distance from the Lotus Pavilion and smelled a particularly strange smell, I can't say what it is, a bit like a pesticide smell, and a bit like the smell of paint, Wu Biao said loudly: "People at the scene, everyone wear a mask, in case the gas is toxic." ”

Lao Dao said: "Don't worry, there is definitely no poisonous gas, this smell is a unique smell after the fat waxing of the dead corpse, and it can be smelled to indicate that the deceased must have suffered a spell attack." ”

"Fat waxing? What is the meaning? ”

"If you dissect a cadaver, you'll know that the fat in the human body becomes like solidified candle oil." Then he said to me, "Boy, you know what to do next?" ”

I patted my head and said, "I forgot to bring a mineral water bottle." ”

Wu Biao was puzzled and said, "What do you want this thing for?" ”

Lao Dao said: "I brought it." With that, he took out a bottle of mineral water from his body and handed it to me.

"No, why do you want mineral water bottles?" Wu Biao continued to ask.

Lao Dao said: "Don't ask, he can't talk about this." ”

Fighting methods are actually very common in the world, but people in the Xuanmen are good at camouflage, so even if many fighting methods are done under people's noses, it is difficult to find them without looking carefully.

For example, if you see someone lighting a cigarette in public, and one person lights a fire for another, and the smoker takes a few sips of the fire and extinguishes it.

This is a frequent occurrence in the sight of passing by, but few people notice that the fire is "extinguished".

It is of course normal to be blown out, but "extinguishing" is a kind of exercise, which seems to be an extremely simple battle between the person who implements the law and the person who breaks the law in an instant, and both sides have made a fuss with their strongest mana in a flame, and if they can keep it, they will complete the work, and if they can't keep it, they will become a wasted person.

Therefore, whenever there is a person from Xuanmen in a place to perform gong and cast spells, the easiest test method is to use water, water is the most yin and soft thing in the world, it can retain the influence of local spells to the greatest extent, but it must be contained in plastic bottles, otherwise there will be no effect, and I don't understand the truth very well.

When I filled the glass bottle with water, and then I took some of the imperial salt I had with me, and sprinkled it in the bottle, I heard a sound of bones, and the water in the bottle suddenly seemed to boil away, and it gurgled out.

Wu Biao looked at the boiling ice water in the bottle in surprise and said, "What the hell is going on?" ”

"This shows that there was indeed a fierce fight in the local area, and the degree of boiling water represents the strength of the mana that once erupted."

"So with the degree of boiling of this bottle of water, what does it mean?"

Lao Dao came over and said: "So, with my mana, if I fight with a person with the same exercises, the water in this bottle is just a little bubble at most, I confidently say, whether it is Bliss or Baicheng Dao, the mana of the guys in these two shops adds up to 30% of mine, and this bottle of water is simply boiling, so there must have been a person with extremely strong mana at the scene, and these seven people did not die because of fighting each other, but were killed by masters." Lao Dao's expression became very serious when he said this.

"What do you mean by that?" Wu Biao said. Before the words fell, there was a crisp "boom", and the plastic bottle in my hand actually exploded, and the cold river water rose into the air and sprinkled our heads.

"What I mean is that there is a person with extremely strong spells in Lingquan City, and most of these people are willing to live in the mountains and deep forests, and rarely set foot in human society, because the vulgar qi of people will affect the cultivation path of the people of the Xuanmen." After saying that, Lao Dao looked around for a while before continuing: "Wu Ju, there must be a reason why this person came to Lingquan City, you can only ask for more blessings, if he is here to harm people......" Speaking of this, Lao Dao stopped, and his eyes actually vaguely revealed a look of fear.

The people of the Xuanmen are bold, because they often deal with some evil ghosts, and they practice internal qi all year round, and their emotions are originally more stable than ordinary people, especially people like Lao Dao, although I don't know his true identity, but looking at his conversation and demeanor, especially the true fire technique is definitely not an ordinary person's ability, it must also be a Taoist with cultivation, so what can make him afraid must be another person in the Xuanmen, and this person's ability can be seen from the bottle that was squeezed by the river water that adsorbed the spell just now.

The police at the scene thought it was a gunshot, most of the people's hands touched their waists, and found that the bottle had burst, and everyone's nervousness stabilized, a strange wind blew, and the river rippled, I don't know who shouted: "There are a lot of dead fish." ”

Although Yuhuatang is a public area, there are a lot of crucian carp and koi carp in the river, because there used to be a temple here, and then I don't know why it was knocked down and built into a street park, the fish in the river used to be the life of the people who worshiped the temple, and now although the temple is no longer there, but the release ceremony is still continuing in Yuhuatang, so there is never a shortage of live fish in the river.

When we entered the scene before, because the light was dark, and we didn't pay attention to the movement of the fish in the river, we only paid attention to the movement of the fish under the river after listening to this voice, and found that there were indeed a large number of dead fish in the river, but they were concentrated in the area northwest of the pavilion.

Lao Dao immediately rushed towards the area where the dead fish were concentrated, and when he arrived, he saw a large number of dead fish concentrated in the river, but the strange thing was that although it was in the floating water area, the dead fish were tightly surrounded and were not scattered by the current at all.

It was a very strange scene, and it looked like a scene that suddenly stopped.

Lao Dao's face instantly turned bloodless when he saw this, like a blank piece of paper.

I was looking at it, but Wu Biao didn't pay attention, all his attention was on these dead fish.

A policeman was about to reach out and touch the water that seemed to have frozen, and Lao Dao shouted: "Stop." The man was startled and immediately withdrew his hand.

"This is a very powerful attack spell called the Snake Technique, and the current spell effect is still there, if you make a rash move, the effect is similar to detonating a bomb."

Although some people didn't believe it very much when they looked at their expressions, they couldn't help but believe it when they saw the strange scene, so everyone involuntarily stepped back, and Lao Dao stood on the shore and didn't know what to say, and then he said to me: "You should stay away too." ”

I hurriedly walked away, only to see Lao Dao take off the ingots shoe on his left foot and throw it into the solidified river.

With a loud "boom", it was like a grenade being thrown into the river, and in an instant, a huge stream of water splashed up in an explosive shape.

Many koi fish were blown apart, and even a few fish tails dragging the entrails of the fish fell in front of me, and Lao Daomu stood motionless on the shore, soaked by the river water, and there were a few broken fish corpses hanging on his body.

No one dared to approach, only I leaned in and said, "Master Dao, are you okay?" ”

Only then did he wake up like a dream and said, "I really didn't expect to be able to see the snake fixing technique here." ”

"Is this the method of the Maoshan Sect or the Dragon and Tiger Heavenly Master?" I said.

Lao Dao shook his head and said, "Mr. Yang, these two sects are not the only ones who are good at martial arts, do you know the Wushan faction?" ”

I said, "Except for the two factions I said, I know the Lingbao Dao." ”

Lao Dao nodded and said, "I know that Mr. Liao is from the Lingbao Dao, but the Wushan Sect is one of the three great Dao sects that can be compared with the Maoshan Sect and the Dragon and Tiger Heavenly Master, and the Snake Fixing Technique is one of the spells of the Wushan Sect." ”

Uncle Liao rarely mentioned the various sects of Taoism to me, I guess it may be because the Lingbao Dao is too small, and the reason why I know about the Maoshan Taoist and the Dragon and Tiger Heavenly Master is also known from stories and TV, as for those Taoist sects that are hidden and in the vast world, I naturally don't know.

I thought for a while and said, "Dao Master, are you from the Wushan faction?" ”

He hesitated for a moment and nodded, "That's right, I'm a Heavenly Spirit Daoist of the Wushan Sect. ”

"Heavenly Spirit Daoist? What does that mean? ”

"The three major Dao sects all have Heavenly Spirit Daoists, in short, whenever there are Daoists who use demonic arts in their respective jurisdictions, the largest Daoist sect in charge of the local area will dispatch Lingbao Daoists to solve these demons, and the reason why I came to Lingquan City is for Yanshimen."
