Chapter Twenty-Four: The Ancestor
Yu Hengzi suddenly sat up straight, picked up the chasing moon with one hand, and pinched the words in his hand.
I saw that the moon-chasing light was generous, a ray of white light appeared, and an almost transparent figure appeared out of thin air. This figure is a middle-aged Taoist priest, dressed in a black Taoist robe and beard, with the appearance of a fairy wind and bones.
Li Feiyu was taken aback when he saw this. What is the situation, is it the legendary machine spirit?
I saw Yu Hengzi salute respectfully, and then said: "Master, it is really helpless to invite you to come out this time, the younger generation has encountered a catastrophe of life and death, and I also ask the ancestor to help." ”
The figure closed its eyes and stood silent for a moment, and said, "Has the aura of heaven and earth been weakened to this point?" What time is it now, I remember the last time I was awakened was during the Jiaqing period, I don't know how long it has been. ”
Yu Hengzi looked at Li Feiyu, and Li Feiyu roughly calculated: "Jiaqing's reign is about two hundred years ago. ”
The figure glanced at Li Feiyu and said in surprise: "Hey, it's interesting, it turned out to be the Heavenly Spirit Root." However, it is only the third layer of Qi training, which seems to be a little inappropriate. ”
He turned his head again and looked at Yu Hengzi and said, "You're not bad, first-class wood spirit root." Six layers of Qi training. ”
"There seems to be the breath of a demon beast outside, but that demon beast threatens the lives of the two of you, what does that demon beast look like?" The figure asked.
Yu Hengzi said: "It's a gray-white fox. ”
The figure nodded, and continued to ask, "Can you see how many tails that fox demon has?" ”
Yu Hengzi thought for a moment and replied, "There is only one big tail, and there is a small one that seems to be unformed. ”
The figure said, "With the cultivation of the two of you, it is indeed difficult to fight this demon. But now I'm running out of strength and can't help. ”
"But with the spiritual power of your whole body to urge the chasing moon, there may be a chance to kill this demon." The figure looked at Yu Hengzi and said, "This is the trick, you remember it......"
"This demon's fur is as hard as iron, only the abdomen is its weakness, and all iron can be injured. If you can seriously injure this demon and use the power of chasing the moon, you can make a contribution with one blow. With that, the figure vanished.
Yu Hengzi shook his head with a wry smile and said, "It's difficult, I'm afraid you and I won't be able to get through this catastrophe." ”
Li Feiyu said: "Let's fight, I don't want to die here." Then Li Feiyu probably asked about the situation of the fox demon and thought about countermeasures.
"How long will it take you to chase the moon?" Li Feiyu asked.
"I just tried it according to the formula, and it took seven or eight seconds. Unless the fox demon loses the ability to act, there is no possibility of success. The Taoist replied with a frown.
Their current weapons are only a sword, a rake. The sword is to be used to kill the fox demon, and it can't be moved for the time being, but it is impossible to hurt the fox demon with a rake.
Li Feiyu rummaged through the room, and he found a bag of tools under the cabinet in the corner, including hammers, screwdrivers and other things, as well as some wires and wires.
It's useless, it can't be used as a weapon. Li Feiyu shook his head, and then continued to look in the room. Nothing.
At this time, he saw those firecrackers and fireworks piled up at the door, and suddenly had an idea.
"Daoist, did you just say that those foxes don't dare to enter the courtyard?" Li Feiyu asked.
"Yes, the gate was open, and after I stabbed the fox demon, all those foxes ran away and never came in again."
"By the way, how did you stab the fox demon, can you try again?"
Yu Hengzi shook his head and said, "That beast came to bite me, and I stabbed it in the mouth with a sword." This animal is very cunning, and it will definitely be on guard next time. ”
"And does it hurt badly?" Li Feiyu asked.
"I only stabbed it a little bit and was bitten by that beast with the sword, and the injury was definitely not serious, so I didn't know why I ran away."
There's no way, let's be a dead horse and a live horse doctor, fight.
Li Feiyu opened the door gently, looked outside, and there was indeed no fox coming in. He forced himself not to look at the miserable situation on the floor, and walked lightly to the kitchen. Seeing this, Yu Hengzi picked up his sword and followed.
The kitchen was a mess, and it looked like it had been plagued by the foxes. Li Feiyu rummaged through the cabinets and turned out a sharp knife, he looked at it for a moment and held it in his hand.
Then Li Feiyu looked at the light bulb in the room, thought about it, removed it and put it in his pocket. I took another pack of matches, which looked like more than ten boxes.
Li Feiyu returned to the warehouse lightly, and Yu Hengzi followed in, picked up the stick against the door, and then sat on the sack to meditate and pranayama.
Li Feiyu put the things from the district on the ground, and then stepped on the sack stacked on the side of the wall to take down a steel pipe on the wall that was used to hang things.
Li Feiyu took out the hacksaw in the toolkit and sawed it with the steel pipe. It took a lot of effort to see it through.
He placed the freshly sawn section on the ground, picked up the sledgehammer and smashed it. After smashing it flat, he picked up the rake, sawed the wood of the rake into small pieces, and stuffed it into the steel pipe.
Yu Hengzi heard him toss like this, glanced at it and continued to breathe. Anyway, if you can't understand it, it's better to seize the time to recover your true qi so that you can deal with the upcoming fierce battle.
Li Feiyu was busy, knocking and beating, stuffing cloth strips, and discharging wires, and even the light bulb was broken and put in. Then he broke off the match head and put it in the pipe.
Li Feiyu took a deep breath, and this part of the ignition was done. Then, he moved the fireworks, dismantled them one by one, and carefully poured the gunpowder into them.
Yu Hengzi heard the movement and opened his eyes, at this time he seemed to understand a little, and helped Li Feiyu dismantle the fireworks and firecrackers together.
Li Feiyu felt that it was almost done, so he tamped the gunpowder, and then sealed the gunpowder with wood and cloth strips. Then he put the sharp knife he had just brought back inside, revealing only the tip of the knife.
"Dao Chief, where do you think this is buried?" Li Feiyu asked.
Yu Hengzi thought for a moment and said, "Just bury it at the door, those little foxes can't open the door, and in the end, it must be the big one who will come to hit the door." ”
Yu Hengzi looked at the "landmine" in Li Feiyu's hand and asked, "Is this thing okay?" Look at how complicated you are. ”
Li Feiyu smiled helplessly and said, "I think there is no problem, and there is no way, just do it." ”
Li Feiyu gently opened the door, dug a pit at the door with a shovel, buried the "mine" in it, and stepped on it gently. Then he carefully threaded two wires through the crack in the door and pushed the door up.
As time passed, the uneasiness in Li Feiyu's heart became stronger and stronger.
He deduced repeatedly, the fox came and banged on the door, then plugged in the electricity, the filament ignited the match head, and then the gunpowder detonated, no matter what he wanted.
But he was always a little uneasy, and he felt that something was wrong.
At this time, it suddenly occurred to him that the situation outside with the door closed was invisible, and it was impossible to tell whether the fox demon was in the predetermined position. Even if he successfully injured the fox demon, as long as he hit the door and opened it, he would fall into the siege of the fox group, so it was almost impossible for Yu Hengzi to kill the fox demon.
What to do, what else to do. Li Feiyu pondered hard.
At this time, there was a "bang" outside, the door was slammed open, and a strange laugh similar to a woman sounded. At the same time, the foxes outside let out a terrible cry, obviously entering the yard.
