Chapter 242: The Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell
"Snort, what should I be, it turned out to be a shadow puppet on the wall for us to see. ”
Fox Qi sneered, yawned, and lay down on the crook of her arm steadily, squinting her eyes to look at the scene.
Seeing that he was recognized, although Jiuzhen Fengtian was angry, there was nothing he could do. Illusion is bluffing, just bluffing, and now that it has been recognized, it is not interesting to play hard.
Jiuzhen Fengtian raised his hand and waved his cane, and the black cloud was included in his sleeve, and everything returned to normal in an instant. At this time, I heard her say slowly:
"Zhao Su is a big trouble for the prince, with your way, I am afraid it is not difficult to get rid of him! If you think that such a dirty thing as killing people will insult the prestige of the master, you can just ask the people in the Juxian Building to do it! ”
She took two steps forward, and a pair of cloudy dark brown demon pupils looked at Yan Shuling's calm face without waves. Yan Shuling's pale blue eyes are like an ethereal valley, quiet and far-reaching, and her soft facial features are like the Bodhisattvas enshrined in the temple, like smiling but not smiling, indifferent and elegant.
After waiting for a long time, seeing that she still didn't speak, Jiuzhen Fengtian couldn't help but wrinkle his eyebrows and said, "What do you mean by pretending to be deaf and dumb? It's very incomprehensible to just keep the door closed all day." Do you really plan to leave it alone? Now let the tiger return to the mountain, and wait for him to be full-fledged before he comes back to fight for the throne?!"
"Those who do the right way do something and don't do something. ”
A light smile appeared on Yan Shuling's lips, and her voice was still gentle:
"There is an old saying in the Central Plains, those who kill kill are killed. I see that Your Excellency is also an old man who has some Taoism, and I am afraid that such a heavy anger will not be beneficial to cultivation. ”
Jiuzhen Fengtian sneered:
"The struggle for royal power has always been done in every possible way! If you want to be alone, go back to your own Taoist retreat and practice! Since you have decided to give up that tranquility, you will have to fight for the WTO! What kind of noble can you pretend to be high in the Shura field of struggle for power and profit? As a courtier, it is your duty to share the worries of the lord and the king...... Hmph, it's ridiculous to be able to say such a thing!"
Fox Qi felt her smooth hand stagnate. Sure enough, even immortals have tempers.
"There are heavenly rules in the ninefold heavens, there are laws in the mortal courts, and the same is true for the underworld. Killing people pays for their lives is a rule to be followed within the Three Realms, and no one is exempt. No matter how clever your tactics are, don't try to escape sanctions. ”
Yan Shuling's tone of voice was still faint, her fingers were still gently sliding between the snow-white fur of Hu Qi, and her expression was still as usual, so indifferent that she did not have a trace of emotion:
"I promised Zhao to go out of the mountain to help, but I never said that I would be a slave for him. I don't care what you want to do, it's just ,......."
She paused at this point, as if she was a little hesitant, Hu Qi took over the conversation and continued: "Whether you are a human or a demon, or you are willing to be an eagle dog, I advise you to be kind. ”
Yan Shuling looked a little surprised, looked down at him, his long eyebrows gradually relaxed, his eyes were half-bent, and he actually showed a smile.
The words were not speculative, and when Jiuzhen Fengtian saw this, he didn't say anything more, snorted coldly, and accepted the illusion without even saying a word of 'farewell', and disappeared from his eyes.
Hu Qi wanted to rub in her arms for a while, but unexpectedly, her expression was grim, and she stood up and walked to the door. Fox Qi was helpless, so he had to follow quickly:
"What's wrong?"
Yan Shuling's sharp gaze turned to the sky, and his face was solemn: "There is an evil spirit." ”
Hu Qi stretched his neck and poked out of the immortal barrier, and sure enough, he seemed to smell a smell of corpses, and couldn't help frowning: "This smell, isn't someone under a curse?"
Yan Shuling nodded, raised her hand to summon the Feng Gao Sword, and flicked the two fingers into the air, and saw the slender sword flash with cold light, and then flew out of the sheath into the air, drawing a Nine Palace Bagua diagram above her head;
Even if it was daytime, the aura of the sword qi was still shining and dazzling, blooming like fireworks in the daytime, and scattered in an instant.
"Wow, what a spell. ”
Fox Qi looked up at the sky with envy. As soon as he praised it, he saw Yan Shuling pointing in one direction and lifting himself into the air:
"Let's go!"
Fox Qi is very proficient in the art of Tengyun, and thinks that in the whole world, no four-legged thing can outrun him.
Unexpectedly, he just jumped into the air and wanted to show off his skills, but when he saw that Yan Shuling had just flown out a few feet, he pressed the cloud head and floated into a nearby uninhabited courtyard. The fox had to turn back in a huff, and followed her down the clouds.
This place is only one alley away from Juxian Building. Since the rich man Zhao Teng has covered the entire street, this courtyard has been empty, and I don't know what to do.
Yan Shuling raised his hand to recall the Feng Gao Sword, turned his back behind him, and paced in the courtyard for half a circle, finally standing under the thick weeping willow.
Spells such as seeking demonic qi and fixing the direction are the most common spells in the sect of cultivating immortals, and people with qualifications like Yan Shuling who cultivate immortals are no problem.
Hu Qi didn't know anything about this, and followed her example and circled around the willow tree with three or four people hugging each other, and didn't see anything wrong. I saw Yan Shuling pointing to a place next to the root of the tree with a sword:
"Dig up. ”
Digging holes is also one of his strengths. It's not tiring from this job, it's just dirty.
This is in line with the words of the old witch just now: those who can do their best, those who work hard, since their ability is limited, then let's do more.
Fox Qi'er didn't say a word, and shook off his arms and began to plank where she pointed. In the blink of an eye, it had dug more than two feet deep, and the whole white fox only showed the tip of its tail on the ground, and after a while, the smell of corpses that had just been smelled became strong again.
The art of evil curse is a very typical evil and crooked spell.
The art of curses has existed since ancient times, but the methods are different. The mediums used include witch dolls, spell paper figures, maggots, corpse spells, etc., all of which are varied, but have only one purpose: to make people die violently. Therefore, the special smell is not really a dirty thing that emits a rancid smell, but the demonic aura of the curse itself.
The stronger the spell caster, the heavier the spell and the stronger the taste. As a result, spellcasters often choose to go off the beaten track in order to hide their tracks, or bury them deep underground.
This kind of spell is a real killing invisible, and it is very secretive and not easy to be discovered, there is only one important flaw - taste, evil qi This thing cannot be hidden, and those who know it will know it as soon as they smell it.
The fox quickly dug another four or five feet with his hands and feet, and the loess gradually piled up into a small hill. Yan Shuling couldn't help frowning slightly when she saw that the new soil was constantly being thrown outward, and she couldn't see the figure of the little fox at all.
"Found it!"
The excited fox Qi threw a small rectangular wooden box the size of a paperweight up, and Yan Shuling reached out to catch it. He then jumped out of the pit and shook off the loess like a puppy.
"Good work. ”
Yan Shuling saw that although the snow-white hair was shaking and shaking, it was still disgraced in the end, and she felt a little unbearable.
"Look! Is it it?" Fox Qi didn't care at all, urging her to open the box quickly.
Yan Shuling nodded, removed the talisman paper that sealed the box, and placed it in the sun, and the stench that had been in the air since just now disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Curse this thing is also very easy to crack, as long as it is exposed to the sun, it will immediately lose its effectiveness.
Fox Qi circled around the thing and asked, "Did that Japanese man do it?"
"Huh?" Yan Shuling looked confused.
"It's the old witch who did the trick just now!"
"Not sure. ”
One of the reasons why the curse is forbidden is that even if someone breaks the curse, it is difficult to find the person who cast the curse.
Yan Shuling smiled bitterly, shook her head and said, "Why do you say that she is a Japanese national? Do you know her?"
"My father said that the name of the Japanese people will be four or five characters. ”
"People obviously told you that it was Da Yao Mountain. ”
Yan Shuling smiled, opened the box casually, and saw that there was really a doll with rough workmanship inside, with rune paper pasted on it, and "Zhao Su" and the eight characters of birth date written on it.
As expected, this thing was so ordinary that anyone could do it, leaving no other valuable clues.
Yan Shuling sighed, and suddenly squinted her eyes to look at him, "Or, you can sniff it?"
Hu Qi immediately blew up his fur and said angrily: "Lao Tzu is not a dog!"
"Difference...... It doesn't seem huge, does it?"
Although he felt that his dignity as a fox was offended, Hu Qi was a little happy in his heart: the fairy Dao Gu, who usually looks serious and unsmiling, is now making fun of people?
"Okay, teasing you. ”
Yan Shuling smiled, stretched out his hand and patted his head, feeling like he was still stroking a puppy: "But all those who practice this technique are conspirators and treacherous people, and they will not easily leave clues for people to find, and this thing is not enough to become ironclad evidence, so let's stop here." ”
"Beware!"
Hu Qi suddenly screamed, and Yan Shuling noticed that under the doll was a red-headed centipede with the thickness of a finger, which was gradually awakened by the sun. Caught off guard, the insect had already climbed on the back of her hand, the fox Qi was shocked, Yan Shuling's hand shook, only to see Feng Gao's sword light flash, the insect was broken into two, and then the whole body ignited a dark blue firework, falling to the ground and turning into ashes.
Although it was a fleeting thing, it was enough to make people break out in a cold sweat.
"Are you alright?!"
Hu Qi immediately turned into a human form, took a few steps to the front, and took her hand with concern, only to see two bright red blood beads pouring out from the bite, which was very dazzling.
"It's spicy!This thing is poisonous, isn't it?!"
Hu Qi's eyes were full of distress, and she just wanted to suck her fingers, but she quietly withdrew her hand:
"It doesn't matter. ”
Yan Shuling's cheeks suddenly flushed with an unnatural flush, and then turned his face away.
"Is it really okay?"
Fox Qi stubbornly chased after her, and forcibly grabbed her hand again to take a closer look, but the wound had disappeared, and she was a little dumbfounded.
Seeing that he was so nervous, Yan Shuling couldn't help but smile and said, "I'm also a quasi-immortal who has been practicing for more than a thousand years, if I can even capsize this kind of gutter, wouldn't it be in vain?"
Hu Qi was suddenly a little disappointed: "It would be nice if I was poisoned." ”
"Huh?"
"You help me detoxify, I will repay you for saving your life, and then promise to ...... Oh, why are you hitting me?"
Yan Shuling poked him in the head: "What are you thinking about all day long?"
"Love!"
Fox Seventy said very seriously and loudly: "I like you! I've told you many times...... Isn't it true that a beautiful little fairy like you has never said such a thing to you before?"
“...... No, I don't. ”
The hand that was about to knock him on the head was stuck in mid-air, and she suddenly felt that the person who said it should not be beaten.
Hu Qi seemed to have insight into her soft-heartedness, and folded his hands and said reverently: "Thank you to the Emperor of Heaven, thank you to the God of War Chongli, thank you to the Sanqing Patriarch, and thank you to all the great gods in the sky, so that all the Taoist priests of Wulingguan are blind." ”
Yan Shuling immediately glared when she heard this: "Who do you say is blind?"
Wuling Temple is an extremely serious and serious dojo, in addition to the master, the Taoist priest in the view is left with her apprentices and grandchildren, how can it be used casually to joke?
But Hu Qi still said confidently: "It's your master Wuling Shenjun! Isn't he blind? He doesn't know how to cherish such a beautiful fairy apprentice! He is the number one blind man!"
This sentence, if it were normal times, Yan Shuling would definitely not hesitate to slap him! But now, she actually felt a little agreed?
