Chapter 47: The Snake Demon Reappears
At this time, it was dusk, Duan Qianxing's voice had just fallen, the sky and the earth suddenly darkened, and the white pillars of moon light rose to the sky, and the sky showed the trajectory of stars one after another, and in an instant, this piece of heaven and earth had become a night sky, and the stars were unprecedentedly bright.
The changes continued, and the Nine Dragons Seven Star Array seemed to be stimulated by Xiao Zhou Tian's Star Fighting Array, and one after another golden lines appeared out of thin air, and finally formed a golden shield, which just shrouded the dragon vein tree within a radius of three zhang.
Ziwei made the flag tremble, faintly revealing a trace of anger, as if the king was deceived by the ministers, and it wanted to resist.
But seeing that the surface of the Ling Banner was glowing, Duan Qianxing was startled and hurriedly wiped away the bloodstains, "I respectfully ask Xingjun to return to the palace, Xingdou will return to its place, disperse!"
At the end of the day, Ziwei ordered the flag to subside, and the thirty-three pillars of light on the periphery dissipated one after another, and finally the light of the Nine Dragons Seven Star Array disappeared, and everything returned to calm.
Duan Qianxing wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, this is going to make Xiao Zhou Tianxing Dou Array impact the Nine Dragons Seven Star Array, the matter is a big deal, in case he is discovered by the Ninth Uncle, he will not be able to eat and walk around.
It is gratifying that Xiao Zhou Tianxing Dou Array really did not disappoint him, judging from the power just now, it is not a problem to break through the Nine Dragons Seven Star Array, of course, the mana consumption is also extremely intense, just at that moment, he consumed as much as seventy percent of the mana, he really has some doubts, with his current mana, he can hold on to the successful breakthrough.
Duan Qianxing gathered his thoughts, glanced at the Ling Qi on the ground, he waved the Ziwei Ling Qi and volleyed a little, "Hidden!"
I saw that the void was blurry for a while, and those extra Xiao Zhou Tian Star Dou Array Order Flags actually disappeared, and the surroundings of the Dragon Vein Tree returned to their original state.
Duan Qianxing nodded with satisfaction, so that he was not afraid that Uncle Jiu would find out, and then cherished the Ziwei Ling Banner and hurriedly left the place.
What he didn't know was that as soon as he walked on his front feet, a figure swept over, and finally stood in front of the dragon vein tree, it was the ninth uncle who went out to look for ginseng, he frowned and looked around, and muttered, "Strange, I obviously noticed movement here just now?"
Then he swiped his fingers in front of his eyes, and a golden light flashed in his eyes, and then he looked around, but still couldn't see anything.
After a while, Uncle Nine accepted the spell and shook his head slightly, "It seems that some beast accidentally hit the formation." ”
The Little Zhou Tian Star Dou Array secretly combines the number of Zhou Tian, controls the Zhou Tian Star Dou, contains the power of space, and when it is hidden in the void, it will not be easily discovered.
Duan Qianxing returned to the Dao Hall, Xiao Yue was anxiously waiting for him, "You're finally back, I'm ......"
Before she could finish speaking, she looked towards the door with a look of surprise.
Duan Qianxing looked back, and couldn't help but secretly say that it was a fluke, Uncle Nine actually came back so soon.
Needless to say, he had to obediently go back to practice.
Time flickered, and another seven or eight days passed, Duan Qianxing's tempering in the Quartet Wind and Thunder Array gradually got better, with the help of Uncle Jiu sparing no blood, and there was the magical effect of the Dark Moon Heavenly King Sutra to promote the transformation of the physical body, his physical body strengthened day by day, and now if he was allowed to face the old lady Ren in his heyday, he could definitely beat him down with his physical body alone.
On this day, it was past noon, Duan Qianxing had just experienced a round of ten-percent powerful four-way wind and thunder arrays, and was soaking potions in the wooden barrel, when Xiao Yue suddenly rushed in, "Little junior brother, it's not good!"
"What's wrong? I'm fine. ”
"No, there was an accident in the town, someone saw the snake demon, and now the villagers are rushing into Fuxi Hall, clamoring to smash our signboard!"
"The snake demon has appeared?" Duan Qianxing was taken aback when he heard this, and then he was overjoyed, "Great, I've been waiting for it for a long time." ”
Xiao Yue was stunned, "Are you waiting for it?"
Duan Qianxing knew that he was speechless, and said vaguely, "I have always been unwilling to let it escape last time, and now I finally have the opportunity to destroy it." ”
Xiao Yue didn't doubt him, "But ...... But what to do now, the villagers are going to smash Fuxitang. ”
Duan Qianxing rolled his eyes, "What are you anxious about, no matter how excited they are, they won't dare to smash the Dao Hall." ”
The villagers are superstitious, and it is too late to pray to the gods and worship the Buddha at this time, so how dare they be disrespectful to the gods and Buddhas.
While speaking, Duan Qianxing got dressed and came to the main hall with Xiaoyue, only to see dozens of villagers gathered in the hall, gossiping and excited.
"Master Lin, you obviously said that you had destroyed the snake demon, why did it appear again?"
"If you don't give everyone an explanation today, and give Sister-in-law Niu an explanation, then don't blame us for being polite!"
"Yes, you obviously didn't destroy the snake demon, but you deceived everyone, and the child of Sister-in-law Niu was gone. ”
"Everyone, listen to me first, my master can't lie to you, the snake demon you saw is not the same as the one before, it ......"
Duan Qianxing understood after listening to two sentences, it turned out that the villagers felt that Uncle Nine deliberately deceived everyone that the snake demon had been destroyed, but today a child was eaten by a snake, so he came to the door to settle the account.
In fact, Uncle Nine never said that the snake demon had been destroyed, but after the snake demon was silent for a while, everyone preconceived that the snake demon was eliminated by Uncle Nine, and then added sesame oil and thanked him, but suddenly one day the snake demon came out again, which caused such a misunderstanding.
Qiusheng and Wencai pulled their necks to defend Uncle Jiu, but the more they depicted it, the darker it became.
Uncle Nine was interrupted several times when he wanted to speak, and finally raised his voice and said, "Everyone, listen to Poor Dao first." ”
The voice was wrapped in the Taoist heroic righteousness, although it was huge, but it was not sharp, which made people involuntarily calm down after listening to it, and soon the hall was quiet, and everyone looked at Uncle Jiu together.
Uncle Jiu Zhengse said, "Everyone, Poor Dao has never said that the snake demon has been eliminated from beginning to end, but it is indeed the responsibility of Poor Dao that the snake demon is a disaster, and I will give you an explanation no matter what I want today, please allow Poor Dao for a day, Poor Dao will definitely catch the snake demon." ”
The villagers didn't speak, after all, they were eating a child, they didn't dare to go to the snake demon to settle accounts, and of course they couldn't let go of Fuxitang easily.
At this time, a person came out of the crowd, wearing a black police uniform, with a dignified appearance, it was Captain Song of the Police Department, he came to everyone, "Uncle Nine has spoken, then he will never break his promise, everyone can rest assured, let's disperse." ”
"What if he lied to us again this time?" someone in the crowd yelled, and the villagers were ready to move again.
Captain Song's face sank, "When did Uncle Nine deceive you? Besides, you are now illegally gathering a crowd to make trouble, and the Police Department has the power to arrest you!"
As soon as these words came out, a trace of intent flashed on everyone's faces, and they scattered one after another.
However, there was still a crying woman left in the hall, she was the mother of the child who was eaten, and I saw her crying and kneeling in front of Uncle Jiu, "Master Lin, I don't blame you, I just ask you to help me find the child's bones." ”
Uncle Jiu's face was embarrassed when he heard this, he was eaten by a snake, where were there still bones, he sighed secretly, he helped the woman up, "Sister-in-law Niu, where was your child eaten by a snake?"
Sister-in-law Niu looked sad and said incoherently, "I...... I didn't see Xiaobao being eaten, it was seen by others, my family lives in the west of the town, there is a forest there, Xiaobao was lost there, some people say that they saw it eaten by the snake demon!"
Uncle Nine nodded slightly, "You go back first, don't be too sad, I will try my best to help you get the child back." ”
The middle-aged woman stumbled away, and Captain Song said, "Master Lin, I'll go back and send people to help immediately." ”
Uncle Nine shook his head, "The snake demon's mana is not bad, in order to avoid innocent casualties, I just bring a few apprentices over." ”
Captain Song agreed after a little hesitation, "That's hard work for you." ”
"It should. ”
After Captain Song left, Uncle Jiu's face sank, "Qiusheng, prepare guys." ”
Qiusheng was arguing with a dry mouth just now, and was sitting drinking tea, when he heard the words, he stood up, "Yes!"
"Wencai, go find a big rooster with a three-inch red crown. ”
"Master, do you want to use chickens again?"
"Mouthy, go. ”
"Oh. ”
"Qianxing, you ......" Uncle Jiu turned around and happened to see Duan Qianxing who was about to slip away.
But before he could say anything, Duan Qianxing immediately said, "Master, I just got struck by lightning, and my injuries haven't healed yet, so I won't go." ”
Uncle Nine didn't have a good breath and said, "I told you to go back to make medicinal soup, who said that you want to catch snakes." ”
Duan Qianxing smiled, "Then I'll go, you guys be careful." ”
It didn't take long for Wencai to find a big rooster, and Qiusheng also prepared peach wood swords, willow branches, glutinous rice, yellow paper and other things, which are all commonly used to open the altar and set up the array, and Fuxi Hall has prepared them.
"Master, what if I can't catch the snake demon this time?" Wen Cai asked with a lot of mouths.
Uncle Nine glared at him, "Then I'll hand you over to the villagers to vent my anger!"
"Uh......" Wencai's face froze, and he couldn't speak anymore.
Qiusheng laughed, "Who told you to talk nonsense with a crow's mouth, how could the master not be able to catch the snake demon." ”
"Didn't you just ...... last time" Wen Cai didn't finish speaking, but seeing that Uncle Jiu's face turned dark, he hurriedly changed his words, "That's right, how could Master not catch the little snake demon." ”
......
Not long after the three of them left, Duan Qianxing packed up his things and quietly slipped out of Fuxi Hall with Xiaoyue, but he took a different path from the three of the Ninth Uncle, the three of the Nine Uncles went to the west of the town, and he went to the south of the town.
After a stick of incense, in a dense forest near the dragon vein tree in Gantian Town, Duan Qianxing laid down an altar, and there was a golden basin on the altar, after preparing everything, he hugged his chest with one hand, touched his chin with the other, and said with a smile, "Master, you are leading in the west of the town, and I am leading in the south of the town, I don't know where the snake demon will go first?"
It turned out that he also wanted to lure the snake demon over, but Uncle Nine used a chicken to attract the snake, and he didn't prepare a big rooster, so what did he use? Of course, he used local materials and dragon vein stones.
The dragon vein stone is very tempting to demons and monsters, including people in the Xuanmen, and it has a fatal attraction to snake spirits, and it is believed that as long as a trace of breath is released, it can immediately attract snake demons.
However, if he wants to release the breath of the dragon vein stone, he will have to impact the Nine Dragons Seven Star Array, once he lures Uncle Nine over first, it will be in vain for him to do all this, so he has prepared a golden basin lighting method to monitor the movements of Uncle Nine and the snake demon at all times to ensure that nothing goes wrong.
