Chapter Seventy-Two: The Old Mansion Destroys the Soul
A few years later, Xu An woke up and found that he had become a ghost, and he was very sad, but he saw it soon after. Because after becoming a Yin Spirit, he found that he could absorb Yin Qi to practice, and he felt that he was full of power.
The instinctive pursuit of power causes him to possess the living and absorb the essence of the living to practice. Xu An had read a lot of strange books during his lifetime, and knew that there were cultivators in the world, and there were many strange people among the people. When he absorbs the essence of a living person, he is very careful, and only absorbs half of the essence of the possessed person before leaving, and does not want to cause death.
For more than 40 years, Xu An has practiced in the Liu family's old house, sometimes going out to absorb the essence of the living, and also going to the Xu family to visit. Xu An is the youngest son in the family, his parents are very fond of him, more than 40 years have passed, his parents have long since passed away, and the head of the Xu family is now his eldest brother Xu Ping.
In recent years, Xu An has found that his cultivation has progressed very slowly. Xu An's Taoism for nearly forty years is equivalent to the cultivation of the fourth level of Qi cultivation for a cultivator. Although the old house of the Liu family is very yin, it can no longer satisfy Xu An's cultivation, so Xu An has to increase the number of times he goes out to attract the essence of the living.
There have been no accidents in more than 40 years, and everything has been fine. made Xu An's courage become bigger and bigger, attached to the living to attract essence, and became unscrupulous, which led to many people who died for no reason in Qingli Town in recent years, most of whom were killed by Xu An's sucking up the essence alive.
"Why is the yin qi so strong here?" Liu Yu asked strangely when he walked into the Liu family's old mansion and soon found something strange. You must know that this Liu family's old house is in the town, and there are many other houses around, so it stands to reason that this situation will not occur.
"Your Excellency, you can see that the locust trees are very tall and planted in a row in the courtyard facing the lobby. The locust tree is yin and has the instinct to attract yin energy. The last time I came, I also found that there were a lot of mahogany furniture in the lobby, all of which were made of locust trees, but the appearance was painted with red paint, and I don't know who was so immoral to make these fakes. This has caused the feng shui in the courtyard to change to gather yin, and gather the yin qi scattered around to the courtyard, and the old house will become thick yin. Meng Qingzhong explained in detail.
Liu Yu was a little surprised, this so-called Feng Shui Yin Gathering Bureau was a bit like a natural low-level formation, which had the effect of gathering Yin Qi, but the effect was extremely weak. At the same time, he has some admiration for Meng Daoren, who is really well-informed, and deserves to be a Taoist who has been exorcising evil spirits from generation to generation.
Liu Yu cast a spell spirit wood cover, his body was shrouded in a ball of blue light, and he took out a red wood sword in his right hand and took the lead into the lobby. Meng Qingzhong followed behind and saw Liu Yu casting a spell, and he also entered the lobby with a look of envy.
After entering the big party, Liu Yu Lingzhi quickly discovered that not far in front of him there was a group of souls condensed by yin qi, which must be the yin souls that were haunting everywhere. The compass in Meng Qingzhong's hand also pointed straight ahead, and his eyes were staring at the void in front of him.
Liu Yu rushed forward violently, and the long sword in his hand swung out a sword light. It's just that the ghost is invisible, and the speed is fast, and it doesn't hit. Liu Yu could only rely on his spiritual sense, and quickly drew a few more swords into the air with his sword technique, but he also missed.
Suddenly, he felt a yin qi on the left and hit the spirit wood cover, and the spirit wood cover blocked the attack with a flash of blue light.
It turned out that Xu An was waiting for Liu Yu and the others in the lobby, wanting to make a surprise attack. It can be seen that Liu Yu didn't know what spell to cast, his whole body was shrouded in a ball of light, and the long sword in his hand made him instinctively feel a little cold.
He realized that this young Taoist priest was more tricky than the old Taoist priest, and he might be a cultivator with high mana. Seeing Liu Yu swinging his sword at him, Xu An hurriedly dodged, and after a few moves, he found that this person couldn't hit him, so he sent him a newly comprehended "Yin Qi Slash", but this human magic cover blocked the attack.
Liu Yucai practiced the fifth-level cultivation of qi, and his spiritual sense was not strong, so it was difficult to quickly locate the exact location of the yin soul, so he couldn't cast spells at all, so he didn't know what to do. Meng Qingzhong on the side was very anxious, he found that Liu Yu didn't seem to be able to see the ghost, so he stepped forward with a peachwood sword to help.
Meng Qing has a family secret recipe to prepare a special potion, and in his early years, his eyes were soaked in special potions for a long time, and he has been cultivated into a "psychic eye". can see the yin soul clearly with the naked eye, and in Meng Qingzhong's eyes, Xu An's soul body is like a cloud of black smoke floating in the air.
Although Meng Qingzhong is not a cultivator, he is already an innate master when he cultivates secular martial arts. The swordsmanship is sharp, and he can see the body of the yin soul clearly.
Suddenly joined the battle, and quickly stabbed Xu An with a sword. Liu Yu saw Meng Qingzhong stab a sword into the air, and the sword light flashed at the tip of the sword, as if it had stabbed something. At this time, a puff of green smoke came out of the air, apparently the Yin Spirit was stabbed, causing the Yin Qi to pour out.
Suddenly, Meng Qingzhong retreated sharply, the gossip robe on his body flashed, and several "Yin Blocking Talismans" and "Yin Dissipation Talismans" attached to his body spontaneously combusted at the same time and turned into ashes.
It turned out that after Xu An was stabbed by a sword, his soul was in pain, and he hated Meng Qingzhong very much, so he hit Meng Qingzhong's body and sent out a "Yin Qi Slash" close to his body.
Fortunately, the gossip robe on Meng Qingzhong's body was a mortal weapon, and there were several talismans to protect his body, which blocked this yin qi, but there was still a small amount of yin qi invading Meng Qingzhong's body, and Meng Qingzhong only felt that his chest was cold.
Liu Yu dodged and came to Meng Qingzhong's body, sending out a sword aura in front of him, but unfortunately he didn't hit again.
"Daoist Meng, are you alright?" asked Liu Yuhu beside him, worriedly.
"Liu Tianshi, the old man is fine. The old man has a family secret psychic eye, and he can see the body of the yin soul, and the adult can attack according to the old man's direction. Meng Qingzhong took a deep breath and said.
Liu Yu really had no other way but to do what Meng Qingzhong said. Liu Yu sent out several sword qi in the direction of Meng Qingzhong's finger. Meng Qingzhong saw that the yin ghost was dodging to the side, and his fingers were also moving, while Liu Yu was moving in the direction of his fingers, continuously emitting sword qi, endlessly.
The space in the lobby is not too large, and with Meng Qingzhong's guidance, the direction of the sword qi sent by Liu Yu is very accurate. Xu An dodged left and right with difficulty, and as the sword qi became more and more dense, he was in no hurry to dodge and was slashed by a sword qi.
Meng Qingzhong saw a cloud of black smoke in the air, which was suddenly cut by half by the sword qi. The sword qi emitted by Liu Yu contained wood aura, and the yin soul body was very fragile, and after Xu An was hit, the soul body trembled, was very painful, and was stunned in the air.
Liu Yu consciously felt that the Yin Soul stopped in the air after being hit, how could he let go of this great opportunity, and shot the Chimu Sword in his hand directly, and the long sword turned into a lightning bolt that directly penetrated the Yin Soul.
There was a dark sound of "bump", and a cold wind blew in the lobby. It turned out that Xu An was pierced through the soul body by the Chimu sword, and it exploded in the air, and the yin qi gathered by the yin soul dispersed at once, producing a violent wind. Liu Yu stood in front of Meng Qingzhong, and the cyan light mask was blown and swayed.
"Liu Tianshi, that yin spirit has been dispersed. Meng Qingzhong saw a cloud of black smoke-like yin spirit, which was directly shot, and said when the yin wind passed.
"I also want to thank Meng Daochang, if it weren't for Meng Daochang's help, I really couldn't get rid of this ghost. Liu Yu stepped forward, picked up the red wood sword inserted in the ground and said.
"Master Liu, the mana is strong, this yin soul is just a little troublesome because it is invisible and shadowless, otherwise it would have died under your sword a long time ago. Meng Qingzhong said modestly.
Meng Daochang said with a smile, if it weren't for you, he would definitely come back in vain. Meng Daochang's ghost has been removed, what else do you want to do?" Liu Yu said as he looked around at the ruined Liu family's old mansion.
"Now, as long as the feng shui pattern of this courtyard is broken, the hidden dangers can be removed, and there will be no other ghosts hiding here. Meng Qingzhong replied confidently.
"How to break this situation of gathering yin?" asked Liu Yu curiously.
"The pattern of gathering yin in this courtyard is very simple, as long as the several tall locust trees in the courtyard are all cut down, and then all the locust wood furniture in the house is burned. This pattern of gathering yin can be broken, and the yin qi of this courtyard will no longer gather, and the courtyard can live again, which is very safe. Meng Qingzhong explained with experience.
"I see, let's go out!" Liu Yu thought it was very interesting and chuckled after listening to Meng Qingzhong's cracking method.
