Chapter 253: Sudden Enlightenment
Several brothers have had accidents one after another, even the two cousins in the second room, one died and the other became a demon, although on the surface the crisis of the brothers has been solved, but Xuanbao is still nervous, thinking about it, it seems that something is wrong, she thinks that she has ignored something?
"County Lord, your health is important, you should rest for a few days." Xia Yu nagged, "I've never seen a little doll more tired than you, and I'm either worried about this or that all day long." ”
Xuan Bao heard the concern in Xia Yu's words: "Well, I know." Indeed, he should have taken two days off. ”
"Two days off?" Xia Yu frowned, "Do you still have something to do in two days?" ”
"It's not a big deal, I just agreed to the Queen Mother to go into the palace to chat with her." Xuan Bao said nonchalantly.
Xia Yu breathed a sigh of relief, but there was still some worry in his tone: "County Lord, although the Queen Mother likes you, it is better to go to this palace less." ”
"Well, you're right." Xuan Bao said casually.
An An rested in Lingyun Garden, Xuanbao didn't want anything, but her grandmother, mother and several brothers took turns to come to Lingyun Garden, although she didn't go out, the yard was as lively.
Xuanbao was not idle at night, she secretly walked around the Hou Mansion at night, thinking to see if she could meet the so-called grandfather and cousin, but the little doll went around for half the night and didn't meet her.
Xuanbao has been a little uneasy these days, and she strolls alone in the Houfu Garden. It was pitch black and quiet, only the lights on the west side of the courtyard were brilliant.
Unconsciously, Xuan Bao came to the gate of the West Cross Courtyard, and stood at the door and looked inside.
The gate looked at the hall of the West Courtyard, although it was far away, but Xuanbao's eyesight was far better than ordinary people, and she could see the coffin placed in the middle of the hall.
After dawn tomorrow, Xiao Youfeng's body will be buried, that is, people like the Xiao family, ordinary people like him are buried in a hurry, and the cause of his death cannot stand scrutiny.
I heard Qiuyue say that Mrs. Xiao wanted to let her grandson be buried earlier, but Xiao Liao and Fang Rongru insisted on burying them after three days, and finally according to their wishes, after all, it was their son who died.
Xuan Bao looked at the coffin from afar, as if something was about to pour out in her little head, but fortunately it was a big night, no one went in or out at all, and no one interrupted her thoughts.
Suddenly, Xuanbao's eyes lit up, and she suddenly realized that she had missed a loophole and was almost exploited.
Looking up at the moon in the sky, it was not yet midnight, and the corners of Xuanbao's mouth were hooked with a sneer, he would never let such a thing happen.
took out the invisibility talisman and pasted it on his body, Xuanbao strode into the West Cross Courtyard and walked straight to the hall.
There were still people walking around along the way, but when they came to the hall that was arranged as a mourning hall, Xuan Bao looked in and found that there was no one inside.
Raising her foot and about to step over the threshold, Xuanbao's sharp eyes suddenly stopped her foot, and she noticed that there was a faint flash of light above the threshold, and when she looked closely, she found that someone had laid down the barrier.
The enchantment is not placed here to prevent people from entering and exiting, but it should be a warning. Xuan Bao was puzzled, and found that the incense on the mourning hall was about to burn out, so she smiled slightly and retreated to the door to watch the changes.
Sure enough, after a while, someone went in to light new incense candles, and it seemed that ordinary people were fine in and out. Then eighty percent of this enchantment is aimed at himself, Xuan Bao guessed in his heart.
If she doesn't let herself in, she will enter, and if she is not mistaken, tonight is the best opportunity and the most critical moment.
Xuan Bao looked up at the roof, the doors and windows must have been enchanted a long time ago, but the small skylight on the roof may not, that is, a little doll like her can enter and exit freely, if it is an adult, it must be stuck, so it should be an excellent gap to break through the enchantment and quietly enter.
Thinking of this, Xuan Bao jumped onto the roof, and she quickly climbed to the breathable skylight with her hands and feet, and sure enough, there was no enchantment here.
Xuan Bao jumped from the skylight, and there was not even a person guarding the spirit in the mourning hall, which was convenient for her to act.
Looking around and listening attentively, no one was moving nearby, Xuan Bao came to the coffin and raised his hands to push the coffin lid open.
Too short is trouble, Xuan Bao stood on tiptoe and pulled on the coffin to look inside, and the little doll looked down.
Xiao Youfeng's appearance before his death was really not good-looking, but these are not the point, the important thing is that there is a faint demonic aura on his bloodless face.
Xuan Bao looked out the window, a bright moon hung on the treetops, and her brows furrowed even tighter.
"Little Benbao, today is fifteen, and midnight on a full moon night is the most suitable time for demons and monsters to make trouble." The old Taoist master in the space also noticed, "There is still a quarter of an hour until midnight." ”
"Old Dao master, if I don't find out, is it Xiao Youfeng who came back from the dead?" The little doll humbly asks for advice.
"The original soul and the original body are called dead and resurrected, Xiao Youfeng's ghost has been taken away by the ghost, then it is not resurrection. Didn't you notice something? ”
"I found that there was demonic qi on the corpse, a very familiar demonic qi, I guess the delusional demon wanted to possess Xiao Youfeng because he couldn't find his original body."
The old Taoist master solemnly reminded: "Little Benbao, don't forget, that delusional demon is Xiao Youduo. ”
"So what?" Xuan Bao really didn't understand for a while.
"Xiao Youduo has been attached to your eldest brother's body for many years, the purpose is obvious, that is, he wants to replace him, he wants everything your eldest brother has, whether it is the throne or fame and fortune, he wants, the three souls and six spirits after the soul exchange are weak-willed, and he becomes a demon because of this obsession."
"Thank you, master, for solving the apprentice's doubts." Xuanbao had thought about it before, but she couldn't think about it so thoroughly when she was there.
The old Taoist master continued: "Without Xiao Kezhong's body, and without finding a new host, Xiao Youduo will become a demon completely within ten days, and he can no longer be attached to a person. ”
Xuan Bao couldn't help but chuckle: "I hid Xiao Youduo's body, he must not be able to find it, it just so happened that Xiao Youfeng died." ”
"That's right, Xiao Youfeng deserves to die, but it stands to reason that he didn't die so soon, and the delusional demon must have added fuel to the fire." The old Taoist master let out a long sigh, "Do you know why he has been able to attach himself to your eldest brother for many years without any flaws?" ”
"I don't know." Xuan Bao seemed to understand a little, "Old Dao master, is it not easy to possess oneself?" ”
"Because the delusional demon and your eldest brother are cousins."
Xuan Bao suddenly realized: "Then he and Xiao Youfeng are brothers." ”
The old master's voice weakened: "That's right, so if it happens, it won't be resurrected from the dead, but Xiao Youduo reincarnated with magic power." ”
"Well, if that's the case, it's going to be a big problem." Xuan Bao glanced at the coffin, "I destroyed this body. ”
"Good!" After the old Taoist master finished speaking, he fell asleep again because of the excessive consumption of spiritual power.
