Chapter Fifty-Eight: Essence Blood
The red rope, which was originally as scarlet as blood, turned white visibly to the naked eye at this moment, and the red was absorbed by the flames burning on the top of the wooden nails.
The orange-red flames also turned a dark green color in an instant, like the flickering ghost fire in the barren mountain graveyard.
The strange scene in front of him made the surrounding villagers dumbfounded, and some people kept retreating in fear.
I carefully observed the faint yang fire above Li Qiuyan's head, and the fire gradually increased under the burning of the faint green flame.
As the fire rose, the flames on the top of the wooden nails gradually weakened, and finally the flames of the seven wooden nails were all extinguished, and the yang flame above Li Qiuyan's head was burning more and more.
I was overjoyed to see the flame above Li Qiuyan's head restored to its original state, so Li Qiuyan's life should be saved, but now the two yang fires on her shoulders have not been lit, if you want to completely save her life, you must ignite the yang fire on her shoulders again, only in this way can it be regarded as completely pulling her back from the ghost gate.
At this time, Ning Nanxi's face was pale, and sweat like beans oozed from his forehead.
Although she just sat cross-legged on the ground all the time, judging from her state, she was as tired as if she had run several kilometers in a row, her body trembled slightly, and her breathing became short, it seemed that she had spent a lot of physical strength to keep Li Qiuyan in the world.
"Miss Ning, I don't see that your face is quite right, are you okay?" I looked at Ning Nanxi in front of me and asked worriedly.
Ning Nanxi nodded weakly when she heard this, saying that she was fine, but she just consumed a lot of spiritual power and essence, just take a rest.
It's just that now although the yang fire above Li Qiuyan's head has been restored, if she wants to wake up, at least she has to light another yang fire, otherwise if there is a mistake, Li Qiuyan's life will still be in danger.
"Then how can we light another yang fire for him?" Li Hai stood aside and asked in a deep voice.
Ning Nanxi sighed and said that the yang fire above his head had not been extinguished before, and it was not difficult to enhance the fire with the help of the Seven Star Life Renewal Technique, but now that the yang fire on Li Qiuyan's shoulders was completely extinguished, it was indeed not an easy task to rekindle it.
Hearing this, I was just about to speak, when the two yin cha walked in front of us, they glanced at Li Qiuyan who was lying on the ground, and one of them sighed: "Seven Star Life Continuation Technique, Xuanqing Gate is really worthy of its name, and even knows this lost ancient art, it seems that we can't take this woman away today, in this case, our brother will leave first, but maybe we will meet in a few days." ”
As he spoke, he smiled strangely at me, then turned and walked out of the crowd, disappearing into the night in the blink of an eye, and the fog around him had cleared a lot.
I breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the hell leave, then looked at Ning Nanxi and asked, "What are you going to do next, can't just lighting a yang fire make her wake up?" ”
"No, the yang fire on the head is only in charge of life, and the yang fire on both shoulders is in charge of consciousness and physique, if you want Li Qiuyan to wake up, you must light another yang fire, although I have a way, I don't dare to try it easily." Ning Nanxi said a little helplessly.
"What's the solution?" I looked at Ning Nanxi and asked.
Although Li Qiuyan's life has been saved now, if you want to find out the cause of death of the monkey and Chen Shuheng, you must find out the news from Li Qiuyan's mouth, if she keeps doing this, what is the difference between her and the living dead.
Ning Nanxi sighed, and said that the method was simple, that is, three drops of fingertip essence blood were needed, and dropping the essence blood into Li Qiuyan's mouth could help him light another yang fire.
Although it was not enough to light a one-shoulder yang fire to fully recover his body, he was able to wake up and his consciousness would not be affected.
"Then what are you still doing in a daze, isn't it just three drops of blood, don't say three drops of blood when you go to the hospital to donate blood, three hundred drops and three thousand drops are enough, and it won't have any effect on your body." Li Hai looked at Ning Nanxi puzzled and asked.
Ning Nanxi smiled bitterly when he heard Li Hai's words, saying that essence blood was different from ordinary blood in his body.
Jing is the yang of yin, which can probably be regarded as the spirit with a material basis, that is, it is both material and spiritual.
Blood is the yin of yang, blood produces qi, and qi guides blood.
As for the essence blood is the essence of people, the loss of essence blood will cause a great injury to the vitality and malaise, three drops of essence blood is enough for her to not be able to perform any Dao techniques, and even the art of sprinkling beans into soldiers has become an ornament.
After listening to Ning Nanxi, I suddenly realized that I immediately understood her worries.
At present, there is no peace in the village, and Ning Nanxi is afraid that if he really loses his essence and blood, he will not be able to protect us when he encounters danger.
After all, now that the old woman in red has found the door, if we take the opportunity to do it, we are afraid that we will be in a dangerous situation.
"And how long will it take you to recover?" I looked at Ning Nanxi and asked, if it takes too long, there is really no need to take risks, we are in danger now, and if there is no protection from Ning Nanxi, it is very likely that we will die in the hands of the old woman.
"At the very least, it will take a whole night, and the essence and blood in the body will be fully recovered at eight o'clock tomorrow morning at the latest." Ning Nanxi said in a deep voice.
"Isn't it just one night, I thought it would take ten days and a half months, now our enemy is only the old woman in red, in my opinion, she will definitely not do it tonight, when you left the Hou family, you also heard the voice from the courtyard, she is doing indescribable things with the black dog, I don't think she has the heart to trouble us again, so don't worry." Li Hai persuaded him.
Although I couldn't make up my mind in my heart, I always felt that this was too risky, but after listening to Li Hai's analysis, I also felt that there was some truth, so I looked at Ning Nanxi and said: "What Lao Li said makes sense, I don't think we will be so inch, you can try it." ”
Seeing that Li Hai and I took turns to persuade Ning Nanxi had to nod and agree, and then she put her right index finger in her mouth, and after biting the fingertip, blood oozed from it.
She walked in front of Li Qiuyan and asked me and Li Hai to help break Li Qiuyan's mouth, Li Hai and I nodded and agreed, squatted down and reached out to pinch Li Qiuyan's cheeks, and with a force, she broke her mouth open, and then Ning Nanxi dripped the essence blood flowing from her fingertips into Li Qiuyan's mouth.
As the three drops of essence blood dropped, Ning Nanxi's face became extremely pale, and he couldn't help trembling, and his expression began to be a little trance.
Seeing that his body was unstable and his steps were staggering, I quickly got up and supported him, and then asked worriedly: "It's okay, Miss Ning, these three drops of essence blood are really so powerful, can they make you so weak?" ”
"Essence blood is condensed by essence qi, which is related to a person's lifeblood, and it is naturally very important, now that the three drops of essence blood have been fed, I think Li Qiuyan will be able to wake up soon." Ning Nanxi's mouth was slightly open, and he spoke weakly, looking very weak.
I nodded and was about to speak, when someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, saying that Li Qiuyan had opened her eyes.
As soon as these words came out, I immediately looked at Li Qiuyan who was lying on the ground, and sure enough, Li Qiuyan, who had her eyes closed, had opened her eyes at this moment, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, and she said with some horror: "I...... What's wrong with me, why don't I remember anything that just happened? ”
"I said eldest sister, your memory is really bad, you almost died, you were ...... just now" Li Hai was suddenly interrupted by a cough from the village chief before he finished speaking, and then he saw the village chief take a step forward, looked at Li Qiuyan and said in a deep voice: "Daughter-in-law of the Chen family, you really don't remember what happened just now?" ”
Li Qiuyan shook her head, saying that she had no impression at all, and she didn't know why she was here.
The village chief breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, looked at Li Qiuyan and said kindly: "Daughter-in-law of the Chen family, you jumped into the river just now, I know that Shuheng is dead, you feel uncomfortable, but you can't do such a radical thing, life must go on, people must always live, you can't look for death and life when you encounter things, besides, you still have a son, what if you die him, won't he become an orphan without father and mother?" ”
When the village chief said this, he glanced back at the villagers behind him, and the villagers saw the village chief's eyes and then spoke up.
"Daughter-in-law of the Chen family, since you have already died once, you can live a good life after you go back, and you must not dare to have this suicidal thought in the future." After the village chief finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the villagers behind him, and said in a deep voice: "Don't discuss this matter, if you let me know who is chewing my wife's tongue behind my back, then don't blame me for being unkind!" ”
"And Jiang Ming's family, treat your daughter-in-law well after you go back, if this kind of thing happens again, your Chen family will not stay in this village anymore, all of them will be fenced for me, even your own daughter-in-law can't manage it well and let these people help you take care of it, do you hear!"
Although Chen Jiangming said that he was unhappy in his heart, the breath he was holding before had also dissipated after Li Qiuyan threw himself into the river, and he saw Ning Nanxi's ability tonight, and he didn't dare to do anything to Li Qiuyan easily, so he nodded and agreed.
"Okay, since it's okay, let's go back." The village chief looked at the villagers and said.
Then the villagers dispersed in groups, and Li Qiuyan also stood up with the support of the villagers and walked in the direction of Chen's house.
Although the Chen family had not completely swallowed this breath, after all, most of the anger had dissipated, and the impulsive emotions had calmed down a lot, so they did not embarrass Li Qiuyan anymore, but took her towards the direction of the village.
"This let Li Qiuyan go? Didn't you want to ask her about the monkey and Chen Shuheng? Li Hai was puzzled.
"What time is it, and the family is not allowed to leave, besides, Li Qiuyan has just woken up and his body has not fully recovered, he has not even forgotten what happened just now, let alone what happened some time ago, in my opinion, let's wait until tomorrow, anyway, the village chief has already warned the Chen family, they should not dare to attack Li Qiuyan again." I looked at Li Hai and said.
Ning Nanxi snorted coldly after listening to me: "Li Qiuyan is not simple, do you really think that she doesn't remember what happened just now?" ”
Hearing Ning Nanxi's words, my heart was shocked, and I was surprised: "You mean that her amnesia is pretending?" ”
"Hmph, if it weren't for the pretending Chen family, how could the Chen family let her go, although immersing the pig cage is a traditional punishment, but it has long been abolished, if Li Qiuyan does not pretend to have amnesia, then the Chen family is likely to face prison, do you think the Chen family can let Li Qiuyan go before the police come, this is her shrewdness, and your village chief is not simple, after hearing Li Qiuyan say that he didn't remember the previous incident, he instantly blocked the villagers' mouths, and then resolved the matter, it seems that your village is capable of producing people." Ning Nanxi looked at me and said.
"What a capable person, it's just some rural villagers, it's not early now, let's go back and rest, you don't bother about Li Qiuyan's affairs today, and get a good night's sleep after you go back." After speaking, Li Hai and I supported Ning Nanxi and walked towards the village.
Ten minutes later, we returned to the courtyard, and the main house was brightly lit, but I didn't see my father.
Seeing this, I quickly entered the main house, and as soon as I entered the door, I heard my mother's voice coming: "Boss, are you back?" ”
After hearing my mother's voice, I immediately entered the bedroom, at this time my mother was lying on the bed, seeing that my father was not in the bedroom, I quickly looked at my mother and asked, "Mom, where has my father gone, why is he not at home?" ”
"Not long after you left, the monkey's mother came, saying that there was something to ask your dad for help, and your dad didn't want to go, but for the sake of the monkey who just died, he agreed, hasn't he come back yet?"
