Chapter 8: Secrets
Pushing open the door and returning to her small courtyard, a big-eyed girl was sitting in the middle of the courtyard, with her hands on her cheeks, staring at the gate of the small courtyard.
After seeing He Wenming come back, the girl immediately changed from a state of boredom to a state of excitement and at the same time incarnated into He Wenming's hand pendant, and said happily: "Great, brother, you are finally back!"
"yes, just finished. God, what's going on in the house? Why are there so many people at once?"
"Brother, don't you know? Fourth Sister was attacked by the person you were going to arrest today, and she was seriously injured, and she is still rescuing. He Tian'er said.
"How is it possible? Isn't He Lian a fourth-level monk in the Yuan Qi Realm, even if that person is also a fifth-level monk in the Second Realm, it is no problem to protect himself and He Jiao. ”
"I don't know, anyway, after they fled back, the second aunt who went directly to the third aunt took over the management of the family, and now she is using the connections of the He family to rescue the fourth sister. ”
Although it can be solved as long as the ancestor of the He family makes a move, whether it is the serious injury and dying of He Wenyong many years ago or today, the ancestor has no intention of making a move. The elders in the family didn't seem to want to disturb the ancestor.
"Then why didn't you go over there to help?" He Wenming asked.
He Tian'er stuck out her tongue and said, "The third aunt is in a mess over there, I will help when I go, so let's wait until it stabilizes and then go to see the fourth sister." ”
As he spoke, the door of He Wenming's small courtyard opened again. I saw He Jiao crying and running in, and before He Wenming could comfort her, she directly threw herself into He Wenming's arms and cried: "Sixth brother, if it weren't for you today, the fourth sister and I wouldn't be able to come back." ”
This sentence made He Wenming puzzled for a while: What about me?
He pulled the little slug up from himself and asked, "How is your sister?"
The little girl wiped her tears and said, "I'm not in a coma yet." If it weren't for the phosphorus powder you gave me, my sister and I really wouldn't be able to fight that ghost cultivator. ”
He Wenming frowned: "You talk about it carefully." ”
This afternoon, He Lian and He Jiao were going to search the scene of the previous monk's crime when they were attacked by the enemy. That person is the third heaven of the Yuan Qi Realm, and it stands to reason that he will not fall into such a situation. It's just that I didn't expect that this person was not an ordinary Yuan Qi Realm ghost cultivator, but a rare corpse refining cultivator among ghost cultivators.
Corpse cultivators can generally only control one corpse in the Yuan Qi Realm, and those with slightly higher talent will control two. The number of corpses controlled increased with the increase of cultivation in the future. This person is the one who can control two corpses.
I heard He Jiao say that one corpse only has the fifth-level cultivation of the Refining Body Realm for her to deal with, and the other is the third-level cultivation of the Yuan Qi Realm, and He Lian's opponent is this person and a corpse.
The corpse monks themselves have a lot of helpers, so their own combat power is lower than that of other monks of the same realm.
was attacked first, and then there was a third-level cultivator of the Yuan Qi Realm and a third-level refining corpse, which made He Lian defeated in a short period of time, and He Jiao naturally couldn't withstand the refining corpse of the Fifth Heaven of the Refining Body Realm.
This was a nirvana, but I didn't expect He Jiao to suddenly throw out the two bags of phosphorus powder given by He Wenming to make the other party scramble, and also burned the refining corpse of the body refining realm. This caught the other party off guard, and then He Lian desperately took He Jiao away, but he was on the verge of death.
After hearing what happened, He Wenming not only did not have the slightest sympathy, but his face changed in anger, and he shouted angrily: "Why don't you set off the fireworks signal?
When I found out that people were the most difficult corpse cultivators in the cultivation world, I didn't let off fireworks, were I afraid that I and the fifth and seventh would come to grab the credit? Women are so stupid and short-sighted!
You must know that no matter who has an accident in this operation, the rest will not be able to bear this responsibility. This kind of behavior not only pits themselves, but even He Wenming and the three men are afraid that they will be taken into the pit. Typical harm to oneself and others!
He Wenming, who has always been light-hearted, suddenly became angry, not to mention He Jiao, and He Tian'er was also startled. He Jiao cried and said, "No...... It's not that we didn't put it. Woo woo, we set off fireworks as soon as possible, but there was no ...... Neither mine nor my sister's fireworks exploded at all after they hit the sky. ”
Hearing this, He Wenming knew that he was wrong to blame them. But it stands to reason that the fireworks of the He family can be seen clearly even in the daytime, and they will not disappear like this. Squibs aren't such a dumb way.
He Wenming thought for a while and asked, "How did you use the phosphorus powder I gave you?"
Speaking of this, He Jiao looked at He Wenming with admiration and said, "You told me that that thing is easy to hurt yourself." I threw both bags of phosphopho powder over, and since there was no true qi to detonate them, I threw my saber over. ”
Although the He family is the weakest one in the Nine Great Heavenly Worlds, they are not poor. The children of the direct family wear swords engraved with talismans, although they are not Taoist talismans to exorcise ghosts, but they can increase the combat power of the holder. It can also escape by detonating the saber if necessary, and it is also one of the most expensive magic weapons in vogue today. It is different from the sword that He Wenming bought for fifty taels of silver.
In this way, He Wenming understands a little that the lack of effect of fireworks before is not the problem of the fireworks themselves, but that someone is making a ghost. There was at least a master of the Zhou Heaven Realm who made a secret move, using the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi to blow the fireworks away before they exploded. The phosphorus powder is light, and after the self-detonation of the Fu Seal Flying Sword, some of the ones that were not ignited were blown away. This also explains why the man in blue had phosphorus powder on his body.
But the matter involves the second lady's maiden family, and it seems that this mission is a bit confusing. So he said to the second daughter: "This time things are not so simple, you two go back to your own yard first, and the sixth brother will be calm and calm." God, you can send Jiao'er back. He Jiao and He Tian'er looked at He Wenming's serious expressions and didn't dare to ask.
After the two of them left, He Wenming felt that he should go to the second lady to confirm it. But he wasn't stupid, and he wasn't prepared to go to the door to dislike people by himself.
When he returned to his room, he closed the door, sat on the bed, carried the exercises, and sealed his hands. Minutes and seconds passed, but nothing changed in the room.
About a moment has passed.
Of the two red paper lanterns that were originally hanging at the back door of the He family, one of them floated up and glowed dimly. Fortunately, the whole He family was busy with the third lady, and it was already dark, and they didn't find that the paper lantern was slowly flying to the second lady's residence in the sky high in the He family.
Soul Lamp!
Among the many spells recorded in the "Two Worlds", there are only two spells that can be used in the body refining realm, and this is one of them. This spell is not a telepathic artifact of the Divine Soul Realm, but a ghost path spell. It is mainly used to find out the whereabouts of ghosts, and ghosts are forced to tell the truth.
In order to be afraid of being seen, this lantern deliberately flew high. However, the high altitude wind and He Wenming's cultivation is not high, this lantern can't help but fly a little slowly, and it is not stable. When a random wind blows, the lantern sways for a while.
Finally, there was no danger to the second lady's courtyard, and there seemed to be someone talking in the house, so He Wenming parked the lantern under the window to listen to the news.
At this time, a man and a woman were talking in the room.
"Cousin, what you did this time disappointed me too much! I asked Sheng'er to inform you to come so that you could take advantage of the opportunity of the He family's master to directly kill He Wenfang and He Lian to me. It's good that you're still in the mood to play a game of borrowing a knife to kill people, I still don't know if she He Lian is dead or alive!" The woman sneered when she said this: "Forget about the little hoof surnamed Sun, the third child can't even give birth to a son, and he wants to use his daughter and Sheng'er to rob the future head of the family? ”
"Cousin, it's not that I don't want to do it, I really can't. ”
"Slap" The woman slapped the table fiercely and said, "With your strength at the peak of Zhou Tian Realm, can't you pinch an ant of the Yuan Qi Realm?
"Cousin, I got the latest news from the family when I went out, and the ancestor of the He family has returned to his soul!"
"How..... How could it be? How could I not know this, and besides, the time has not yet come!Is the news in the clan accurate?" The woman seemed to be frightened by the news.
"It's true! The ancestor of the He family returned to his soul this time because the Eastern Sect Master of the Tianli Sect had also returned to his soul. Cousin, the death of a direct miss of the He family is not a trivial matter, in case his old man is desperately trying to lower his cultivation and has to carry out causal deduction, if I make a move, it will be difficult for me to escape. Scattering fireworks is the best option. ”
"If the Ancestor really comes back to his soul, don't make a move under his nose. The woman added with trepidation: "No, you don't want to make any more moves under his nose." Also, you didn't have direct contact with that left-path monk, did you?"
"No, I just left him a note saying: The He family is directly arresting him. This move won't be pushed by the ancestor of the He family, right?"
"No, there are so many causes and effects, and the ancestors of the He family can't deduce it. As long as you don't show up and talk to the monk directly, that's fine. ”
"Do you think he will invite the one from Foguang Temple?"
"No, there are only a few people who can deduce in the Tongtian Realm today, but one deduction will cost nearly ten years of cultivation. Only the cause and effect method of Foguang Temple will not damage the cultivation, but the relationship between the He family and Foguang Temple is average, and the monk will not make a move. ”
Hearing this, He Wenming felt that he had almost heard it and wanted to get up and fly away, but unfortunately the sky was not beautiful. A gust of wind blew, and the lantern paper was blown with a "bang, bang, bang".
This paper voice naturally couldn't hide from the man at the peak of Zhou Tianjing in the house, and the man came outside the house in one step and whispered, "Who!" Then the second lady also came out.
The two searched around and found no sign of anyone, only a red lantern lying under a corner.
The second lady stepped forward to pick up the lantern, only to see a black "He" word pasted on it.
"Did you see someone around here when you came out?"
"I haven't seen anyone, even the masters of the Lingtai Realm can't walk away in such a short time. Cousin, do you think it will be ......?"
"Impossible, my father-in-law should be presiding over the He family's lotus array right now to deal with what happens. And if he hears the conversation, will you and I still be alive?"
"What about the second old lady of the He family and Aunt He?"
"It won't be them, they are all busy with the affairs of the Heavenly Doctrine, how can they get out. You were a vegetarian that day?"
"This lantern has no trace of true qi at all, and it has no divine soul breath, it doesn't look like a means of imperial objects, it's like it was brought over!"
"Let's do it first, I'll keep the lantern and examine it carefully. You go back first, remember to be careful. ”
"Okay cousin. ”
After the man in blue left, the second lady still looked at the lantern in her hand and was puzzled.
They didn't know that in one of the courtyards of the He family, a teenager had a headache and was rolling on the bed with his head in his arms, and from time to time he hit the wall with his head.
This is the consequence of the spell being interrupted.
So be cautious when casting spells!
