Unsheathed Sword Chapter 113: Exorcism
After this catastrophe, although the Yi family is in the middle of the road, the mansion has not been sold, and it is still in the upper reaches of Xingqing City, where wealthy businessmen gather, which is also the confidence that Tang Fu said before that the sale of the mansion can be worth ten small beads.
The main entrance of the Yi family mansion is a clean and wide bluestone street, and unlike other streets, this street is very deserted, because the street is inhabited by wealthy merchants, so there are no small vendors selling along the street.
The Yijia Mansion is quite magnificent, the vermilion lacquer gate is full of three people high, enough for two carriages in parallel, the gate is a heavy black wood plaque, the book "Yi Mansion" is written, the center of the gate is a golden copper door buckle, and there are two mighty stone lions guarding on both sides, a typical rich family appearance.
When Tang Fu saw the mansion, he couldn't help but quicken his pace, trotted up and knocked on the door.
There was a muffled sound of "dong dong" in the night sky, which was very rapid and powerful, and it could be seen that Tang Fu's heart was indeed anxious.
Immediately, there was the sound of small broken steps inside the door, and the vermilion lacquer door was slowly opened, revealing the figure of a thin girl, who was pushing the door open with all her might.
Tang Fu hurried to help, and together with the thin girl, he pushed the door open.
Then he approached the thin girl and whispered a few words to her. The girl immediately put her somewhat disheveled hair back over her shoulders in a panic, raised her head and looked at Xu Huaigu and his party, and her eyes seemed to flow with brilliance.
She hurriedly walked in front of Xu Huaigu and his party, gave a salute, and said delicately, "Yi Yun has seen all the immortal elders. ”
Tang Fu also hurriedly explained: "This is our Miss Yijia, with a single name. ”
Xu Huaigu nodded and took a few steps closer, only then did he see the face of this Miss Yi family clearly at night.
Yi Yun was born to be a typical boudoir lady, her skin was better than snow, her eyebrows were delicate, and when she looked at Xu Huaigu in her eyes, it seemed that there were autumn water veins.
Indeed, as Tang Fu said, it is quite beautiful.
She was wearing a goose-yellow dress today, tied around her waist by a small white belt, which just highlighted her extremely well-proportioned figure. Her hair was deliberately arranged behind her shoulders, which made it even more stylish. It's just that Xu Huaigu also noticed that her eye circles were slightly red, her hair was messy, her flowers were haggard, and her thin body felt like she was about to be blown down by the wind.
Tang Fu looked at his young lady's haggard appearance, and sighed distressedly, and said to Xu Huaigu and his party: "Immortal masters, please come with me." ”
Xu Huaigu and Yu Qin walked side by side in the front, and Xiao Pingcui also knew that this was not a place to play around, so she held Yu Qin's hand tightly and followed her. Huang Shan followed behind them, and also looked at Yi Yun twice, seeing that Yi Yun's heart was beating faster, and she was so panicked that she didn't dare to raise her head.
The Yi family's mansion is actually not small, and after entering it, there is a large back garden, strange rocks, all kinds of plants and trees grow in the garden, and a small pavilion stands by a small pond.
The group followed Tang Fu into a quiet path, and the grass and trees on both sides of the path looked cluttered because they were uncared for.
Tang Fu said with emotion: "The head of the family used to spoil our young lady the most, and the young lady likes flowers and plants, and our Yi family's mansion is full of all kinds of plants and trees. As a result, now the head of the family has suffered from calamity, the family is gone, the garden is deserted, and the young lady has been washing her face with tears all day long, and now her body is also sick, and I hope that all this will end soon. ”
Xu Huaigu comforted: "Yes." ”
The group walked all the way, but they didn't see anyone else, Xiao Suo was lonely, miserable and miserable.
Tang Fu remembered and said: "When the head of the family just got sick, there were many servants who remembered the kindness of the previous master and were willing to stay. It's just that after a long time, the Yi family can't pay their salaries, and everyone has to find a livelihood, so they all leave, and now the only outsiders in the Yi Mansion are me and another cook. ”
Soon, the group saw a two-story pavilion built deep in the mansion, and dim lights came through the windows.
Tang Fu walked to the door, gently pushed the door open, and whispered to the group: "After we enter, we will not speak, as long as there is a little noise to the head of the house, the head of the house will be sick again." ”
The group nodded in agreement.
Tang Fu then led the four of them in, and after passing through a few doors, they came to a bedroom.
In the bedroom, there is a white plain bed, and in addition to this, four lamps hang in the corners of the walls, emitting fire to illuminate the bedroom.
There was a thin skinny man lying on the plain bed, although it was summer, but he was covered with a thick quilt, and the man was still shivering under the quilt.
Huang Shan lifted the corner of the quilt and saw the man's face.
The man's skin was dry and waterless, almost strangely pale, and there were faint corpse spots growing at the base of his ears, apparently wandering on the edge of the ghost gate.
The scene in front of her is really weird, and under the background of the dim light at night, it looks even more weird and terrifying, and Yu Qin looks furious in her heart.
Huang Shan opened the eyelids of Yi Xingping, the head of the Yi family, with two fingers, to see his pupils. At this moment, Yi Xingping's whole body suddenly trembled, and he quickly stretched out his two hands to pinch Huang Shan's neck, and then a carp jumped off the bed.
Yu Qin and Ping Cui screamed and ran out of the room in a panic, while Xu Huaigu was also taken aback, the hand holding the sword was not out, nor was it received, and he was at a loss for a while.
Just when Yi Xingping was about to get sick and hurt someone, Huang Shan hurriedly kicked him away, then flashed to his side, quickly cut his hand back, and pressed him against the wall.
Yi Xingping had a lot of strength when he was sick, and even with Huang Shan's monk's physique, he couldn't suppress it. He hurriedly clicked on a few more acupuncture points, and Yi Xingping's desperately resisting body gradually stopped.
Tang Fu was frightened and panicked, and said, "What's going on? None of the heads of the family had been like this before. ”
Huang Shan frowned tightly, and his face was very bad: "This is a ghost technique that has reached the depths of his mind, and he is about to control his mind, so he will go crazy uncontrollably." ”
Then Huang Shan and Xu Huaigu carried Yi Xingping back to the bed, and Huang Shan checked it again before beckoning Xu Huaigu and Tang Fu to go out.
As soon as he walked out of the door, Tang Fu asked impatiently: "Immortal Chief, do you think our family master can still be saved?" ”
Huang Shan said sympathetically: "It's difficult, it's difficult. He has not only been subjected to ghosts, but three souls and seven spirits have been robbed of one soul and one soul, so he has been unconscious for a long time. The only way to get rid of it once and for all is to regain his broken soul. And now all I can do is use the talisman to temporarily alleviate the erosion of his mind by the ghost magic on his body, and prevent him from going crazy again, but he still can't wake up, and can only pass out until his soul returns to its place. ”
Yi Yun listened to Huang Shan's words, walked up to Huang Shan, and asked anxiously, "That immortal chief, how can I get my soul back?" ”
Huang Shan laughed at himself: "Get your soul back? That's really harder than climbing to the sky. The soul that was taken away by the ghost may have been eaten by the ghost as a nourishing thing long ago, and it is a question of whether it will remain in the heavens and the earth. Taking a step back, even if the soul is still there, do you know how difficult it is to regain the soul from a group of high-level ghosts that have captured people's souls? ”
He thought for a moment and said, "At least, at least one monk from the Six Realms has the strength to take it back. Don't look at me, I really can't help with this, I'm just a little Four Realms monk, where can I have that kind of ability? If you go, you're just going to die. ”
Yi Yun was anxious, and hurriedly said, "Does the Immortal Chief have any friends you know who can help?" ”
Huang Shan glanced at her strangely.
Is this girl really ignorant or is her brain burned by grief? It is said that at least the monks of the Six Realms can help, and it is already the level of the founding ancestor of a third-rate small sect in a place, who will help you in vain?
He pondered for a while and said, "Actually, there is another way, the soul can be nourished. As long as you find a herb that can nourish your soul, you can also save him. ”
Yi Yun seemed to see the life-saving straw, and was grateful: "Thank you Immortal Chief, I'll let Steward Tang go and find the herbs." No matter what it takes, we will find it. ”
Huang Shan smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "No need to look for it, this is more difficult than retrieving the soul from the hands of ghosts." Every herb that can nourish the soul is the only creation of God, and there is not necessarily a copy in the entire Dayu treasury, you are just two ordinary people, where can you find it? ”
Yi Yun's smile gradually became dull, and the hope in her eyes was quickly and ruthlessly extinguished.
Two lines of tears came down from the corners of her eyes, she couldn't stand steadily, and she was about to fall weakly, Xu Huaigu hurriedly stepped forward to support her.
There is nothing more desperate than hoping and then ruthlessly extinguishing it.
Huang Shan originally didn't plan to get involved in this matter, life and death are human nature, where can these little people be shaken? He learned this at a very young age, who could he confide in his pain?
You can only break it and swallow it in your stomach.
Just looking at Yi Yun's pitiful appearance, he unconsciously thought of his first encounter with his master thirty years ago.
He was only a seven-year-old boy at the time, and after the destruction of the village where he grew up, he wandered alone in the mountains and forests.
He will never forget the day when it was snowing heavily, and he braved the snow to dig a hole in the edge of a frozen river, and then reached in and rummaged through the mud for the green snails, but found nothing, and his hands were blackened by the cold.
Cold and hungry, he felt like he couldn't survive the winter. His eyes at that time should be as desperate as Yi Yun's eyes now.
Then he saw the man walking towards him from the river, holding a half-bitten steamed bun in his hand.
It was because of that half of the steamed bun that Huang Shan decided to go with him.
He didn't remember his real name for a long time, so the man gave him a good word, hoping that he would be good.
He later learned that the person who was nibbling on the hard steamed buns on a snowy day that day turned out to be a monk, who was very rich in the eyes of the secular world, but he and Huang Shan had always only eaten steamed buns and pickles. Because he said that as long as he follows him, it is Ye Xiu, although Ye Xiu is rich, but he must not forget his duty, it is Ye Xiu's duty to endure hardships, Ye Xiu's life, so he is only allowed to eat steamed buns.
Huang Shan thought of this, and tears slowly poured out unconsciously, and Xu Huaigu was very puzzled.
Huang Shan changed his mind and said, "Don't worry about this matter, I will try my best to help you find your father's soul, but not now." I don't have enough strength, so I can only find someone to help me when the time comes. ”
Yi Yun had no choice but to agree: "Okay, everything is arranged by the immortal chief." In any case, Yi Yun still thanked the immortal chief for his kindness. ”
"It's okay, there will always be unpleasant times in life, and patience will pass. Now arrange a quiet house for me, and I'm going to start the exorcism talisman, and your father's illness can't be delayed any longer. ”
Yi Yun said gratefully, "Okay, then Immortal Chief, please come with me." Everyone else should come with me, although our Yi family is now in decline, but there are still a lot of rooms that can live, if you don't dislike it, just live here. ”
Xu Huaigu said kindly: "If it is somewhere, we will live here, and we will have to worry about Miss Yi." ”
Yi Yun looked at Xu Huaigu, her eyes lit up, and she was a little amazed by Xu Huaigu's appearance and temperament, both the sassiness of a chivalrous man and the gentleness of Confucianism.
She was in a daze, and immediately realized her faux pas, and hurriedly said, "Don't bother, don't bother, just come with me." ”
So the group followed Yi Yun.
Yu Qin was a little disappointed, because she clearly saw the unnaturalness in Yi Yun's eyes, and she also knew the reason for the unnaturalness. Even though she knew that one glance didn't mean anything, she just felt uncomfortable, like a fish in her throat.
I have never been disturbed by a look from others before, but now because of Xu Huaigu, Yu Qin hates herself a little bit now.
Is this the trouble of growing up?
She looked up at the sky, and it was full of stars, which was spectacular.
She didn't know the answer.
