Chapter 55: The Purple Cloud Night Banquet
It's late at night.
The red lanterns of Ziyun Tower are hung high, and the courtyard is like a market, and such a bustle is very abrupt in the quiet streets and alleys.
"Shopkeeper Miao, thank you for helping me. ”
In the arms of a stocky middle-aged businessman, Hoshigaki whispered.
Shopkeeper Miao coughed dryly twice, "Daxian is polite." In fact, I decided to go to the money bank when I also had the idea of gambling, since you sincerely advised, I am also taking risks left and right, it is better to fight with you. We hope you don't forget our previous agreement......"
"Well, I remember," Hoshigaki said, "you bring me in, and when my spirit returns, I will help you fulfill your wishes." ”
"Good, good. Shopkeeper Miao nodded with satisfaction, and walked to the door of Ziyun Tower.
"Uncle, come in and play together. A woman with flowers and branches floated out, and the light of the lantern lined her face with a ruddy color, but her tone was a little stiff, not like the enthusiastic and earnest warblers and swallows of the past.
Shopkeeper Miao frowned and waved his hand, "Look at your deep voice and a strange face, where is the attitude of entertaining guests, is it new?"
Another woman next to him greeted her, "Uncle, don't worry, she can't speak, let me serve you." ”
Her tone was a little colder than the one just now, and the shopkeeper Miao sounded a little numb.
He looked around, whether it was the guest at the door or the girl who was soliciting the customer, everyone seemed to have only one expression, and the conversation between them was all straightforward.
It seems that no one notices anything unusual about each other, and everyone just does their own natural actions.
"Kunlun Jade Daxian, I always feel that today's Ziyun Tower is very strange, all the people are ......" Shopkeeper Miao scratched his head, searching his stomach and thinking of adjectives, "not very lively......"
Hoshigaki: "......"
"Kunlun Jade Great Immortal?" the Miao shopkeeper whispered to Baoyu in his arms again, but did not receive any reply.
"That's it, for the sake of the owner's treasure, I'll give it up!"
Shopkeeper Miao turned his heart sideways, took a step, and broke into the welcoming hall of Ziyun Building.
The door of the hall suddenly closed with a bang!
The figures at the door and inside the house dissipated instantly......
Shopkeeper Miao was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground at that time, and his underwear was quickly soaked in cold sweat.
The occasional wisp of wind blew through the empty hall, making the stocky middle-aged merchant shiver uncontrollably.
"I ...... I don't want the treasure anymore, I'm going home......"
He muttered indistinctly, and his trembling hand reached into his arms, wanting to take out the Kunlun jade that was sealed with the immortals. It's a pity that the more his hand shakes, the more he can't reach it, the more he can't get it, the more scared he is, and the more afraid he is, the more his hand will tremble......
"Great Immortal?Kunlun Jade Great Immortal?" the trembling voice of the shopkeeper Miao was mixed with crying, "Great Immortal, say something quickly, suddenly there is no one in this hall, and the door is ...... The door is closed by itself!What should I do, what should I do?Can you manifest a spirit to send me home?!"
"Hahaha, what a stealing guest!"
The deathly silence was suddenly disturbed by a shrill voice, and the woman's laughter echoed in the empty Ziyun Building, looking more and more weird.
Shopkeeper Miao felt that the back of his spine had become an icicle, and the cold that came out of his bones penetrated his internal organs, as if he wanted to freeze his body from head to toe!
"We're closed today, didn't you see a sign posting the gate in the evening?"
A woman in a pink and white Luo skirt shook a fan and stepped on a pair of red embroidered shoes, and gently walked down the stairs covered with a velvet carpet in the middle of the hall.
First-order, second-order, third-order......
"Tonight, our feast is for the dying spirits of the dead, and tonight should have been their last revelry, but it has been completely disrupted by the recklessness of the guests......" said the woman, and walked before the shopkeeper Miao.
Shopkeeper Miao stared at the woman's flower and moon appearance, and looked at it in a daze for a while, and the originally frightened and uneasy mood was miraculously calmed down.
"To punish you, my guest," the woman leaned over, put her lips to the ear of the shopkeeper Miao, and whispered softly, "You want to make it up to me for your tonight......"
Shopkeeper Miao swallowed his saliva, "Don't say that tonight, if the girl needs it, I can do it at any time." ”
"Hehehe......" The woman raised a fan to cover half of her face, and laughed softly: "The guest is really good at laughing, do you know what I want you to do tonight?"
Shopkeeper Miao: "You can do anything, as long as you don't seduce my soul......"
"What if ......," the woman stretched out her hand, her slender fingers hooking the chin of the shopkeeper Miao, "I just want to seduce your soul?"
The shopkeeper Miao suddenly felt that his blood was surging, and he wrapped his arms around the woman's soft waist!
"Girl, my little lady, if you really like it, my three souls and seven spirits will all belong to you!"
"Okay, the contract is established. ”
The woman said that, and took out an IOU from her sleeve: Today, there is a jade merchant Miao Liansheng, who borrowed a night of Spring Festival in Ziyun Tower, and paid for it with his soul, and the contract period is eternal, and he cannot regret it if he establishes a basis for it.
As soon as the shopkeeper Miao saw the contents clearly, he was grabbed by the woman with her open hand and choked her neck!
In front of her, she was obviously a slender and weak little woman, but her hands were strong enough to imprison this fat merchant's futile struggle!
And her voice is no longer a sweet and soft female voice, but a man's gloomy voice, "Nandou Xingjun, when are you going to hide?!"
"I'm not, I don't have ......" Miao's shopkeeper's face turned purple, like a round eggplant, "Daxian ......"
He barely squeezed the last two words out of his oppressed throat, and then he died.
Ling Yan faded into the form of a woman who had transformed herself, covered her face with black wood, and stood in the hall dressed in white; with a wave of her fan, she turned into a jade feather and a white mang, and in an instant sealed the Ziyun Tower with cold ice.
"If you don't make a move, I'll almost forget about it," Xingyuan's voice suddenly came, "In addition to selling some unpopular formations, you only have some habitual tricks left to create ice and snow in the world." ”
"Nandou Xingjun! If you have the ability, you will show up and fight me!"
Ling Yan unfolded the jade feather white mango fan and pulled up the guard of his whole body.
"Hehehe," Hoshigaki smiled lightly, "You don't have to be too nervous, it is said that the world is very particular about rituals, and I will play a little game with you, and I will make a gift of reunion after a long absence, how about it?"
"A dignified first-class star official, I don't want to be so cringe at this time, it's really funny!"
"If you agree, come and find me now, and the game begins. ”
"Don't talk to yourself!" Ling Yan threw out the contract with the name of the shopkeeper Miao written on it, "This piece of paper is the soul of the innocent merchant who brought you in!"
"I advise you not to kill again!"
"What qualifications do you have to stop me?" Ling Yan threatened, "Don't forget, your body is still in our hands!" As long as I refine all the remaining grievances of the necromancy here into a curse and pour it on it, I think that Lord will be happy to see the Southern Dipper Star Monarch who has been corrupted into a puppet demon by the curse of the living soul." ”
"You're not going to do that. Hoshigaki's tone was very calm, "Because I know that you are jealous of my spirit." ”
"I can't imagine that the Southern Dipper Star Monarch, who has always been calm and humble, would be so proud?"
"I just have confidence. Now, all of my seven star energies are concentrated in the spirit god, and if I appear, I can knock you back to your original form at any time. It's just that before punishing you, I still want to give you a chance to make amends, let go of that soul charm, and abandon evil and follow good. ”
"You're dreaming!"
Ling Yan urged the evil magic in his hand, and an ice blue flame ignited out of thin air!
"Repel the fire, burn this talisman!"
The paper deed burned out.
Suddenly, a gray-white flower cat burst out of the body of the shopkeeper Miao and rushed straight at Ling Yan to bite it!
"Nandou Xingjun, you lied to me!"
"I didn't get tired of cheating, I said it was a game. That empty contract of yours couldn't attract Miao Liansheng's soul at all, because it wasn't a human in the first place, but a cat demon with a thousand-year-old Dao line. ”
"The cat demon should also have a soul, look at me and take this evil beast now!"
Ling Yan threw out the white mangfan in his hand and cut it straight at the belly of the cat demon!
The cat demon rolled over to avoid the attack, and with a volley, its four claws fell steadily back to the ground. It arches its back, blows up the hair all over its body, and swings its tail from side to side vigorously!
The demon beast held a piece of lushy and clear jade in its mouth, and let out a low "whine" sound threateningly towards its opponent.
The spirit god of the Southern Dipper Star Monarch was in this jade, and he said calmly: "All living beings have spirits, and all spirits are different. Didn't the adult in your family teach you the art of attracting souls, and there is a difference between attracting human souls and attracting demon souls?"
"I don't care if it's a human soul or a demon soul?!" Ling Yan's wrist flipped, and the jade feather white mangfan stabbed like a hundred and ten sharp swords, "Anyway, it's the same after death!"
"It's a pity that this cat has a strong desire for business, which is very different from those mortals who have been seduced by you. ”
The cat demon has a treasure jade in his mouth, dodging left and right, and his body is smart, although the attack of the white mang fan is fierce, it is difficult to help it.
Seeing that he didn't have much upper hand, Ling Yan immediately put away the demon fan, made a fierce seal with both hands, and recited a murderous spell in his mouth: "The evil world is lifeless, the illusion world is boundless, the evil spirit is endless, and there is no hope for eternity!"
With his curse, layers of black miasma suddenly appeared in the hall of Ziyun Tower, and the black miasma intersected and intertwined, turning into a big net!
The cat demon went on a rampage, and finally fell into this magic miasma. Its body was firmly bound, and it couldn't struggle, so it could only bite the Kunlun Baoyu in its mouth and let out a terrible scream in its throat!
"A demon beast is just a demon animal," Ling Yan sneered, and reopened the fan in his hand, "Even though there is all the death in this place, there is no lack of unquenchable resentment, and I have refined it with a curse, how can this little cat demon bear it......?"
"Hehe, Ling Yan......" Xingyuan smiled, "That's why you should be afraid of me." Because if there are resentments here, doesn't it mean that these dying souls still have the intention of life, even if these thoughts are weak, they can become my strength to protect them!"
As soon as Nandou Xingjun's voice fell, purple light began to glow on the Kunlun jade.
The demon was ravened by the miasma, and slowly stopped screaming and struggling—Hoshigaki used the power of the spirit god to dispel the resentful curse that bound it.
"What I inflicted on the cat demon is not a deep soul grudge," Ling Yan said lightly, "You are now just a spirit god cowering in a broken stone, after dispelling the resentment curse that binds it for the cat demon, Nandou Xingjun, how much strength do you have left?"
"My spiritual power is really running out," Xingyuan said calmly, "but fortunately, the cat demon helped me bite through the seal of Antares on the Kunlun jade when resisting your resentful demon miasma......"
