Soul demons, somewhere between ghosts and demons.

People are gone, but their souls are gone. The soul of a person who is good while alive flies for nine days, and the soul of a person who does evil while he is alive falls into hell. And those who died unjustly are too obsessed with the soul and body. It's a ghost.

Before, the Qing'er that Yun Wuxian met was a female ghost. In order to save the clouds, Qing'er's soul was crushed by the "ghosts of the four directions", and the spirit returned to the void, but Qing'er's soul did not rise into the sky and did not go to hell. Therefore, I can only be nostalgic for the world, and it is for the soul demon.

The soul demon looks scary, but because it is formless and incorporeal, knowledgeless and thoughtless, to put it bluntly, the soul demon is a layer of mist, which looks scary, but does not have any ability to commit murder. You can only wander between heaven and earth with the wind.

Flannel had heard the elders of Moshan talk about the soul demon, but she had never seen it, yes, she was not sure.

"Are you really a ghost?" Flannel asked, "can you come near and let me see you." ”

"Dao Gu has a spell, I don't dare to approach. Qing'er said.

"Qing'er, how can this be. Yun Wuxian said, "At that time, didn't you say that your soul was gone? I thought I would never see you again in this life." How did you become a soul demon again?"

"Brother dog, I didn't lie to you. On that day, the 'Quartet Ghosts' beat my soul away. But this is Maoshan Mountain, gathering the aura of heaven and earth. As my soul flew away, I encountered a fresh wind. Gather together the souls that are to be scattered. Then, I became what I am now. ”

"Miss Qing'er, can I do something for you?" asked Yun Wuxian.

"My soul wanders here, and there is no escape, and I am very distressed. Brother Dog, can you go to Maoshan and ask for a spell for me to free me. Whether it's a soul flying or wandering elsewhere, it's better than being trapped here. ”

Yun Wuxian nodded and said, "Miss Qing'er, I understand. When I rescue Bai Ling, I will help you ask for a talisman. ”

"Bai Ling, but that cute little fox that followed you that day, what's wrong with it?" asked Qing'er.

"Here's the thing, that day, after I defeated the 'Quartet Ghost', I met a stinky Taoist priest in Maoshan. The stinky Taoist priest locked Bai Ling under the 'Linglong Tower', and I came this time to find the stinky Taoist priest and rescue Bai Ling. Yun Wuxian said.

"How can this be? Brother Dog, are you sure you heard me right?" asked Qing'er.

From Qing'er's tone, Yun Wuxian knew Qing'er's surprise. As a result, Yun Wuxian thought that he had been looking for many days, but he didn't find the "Linglong Tower", could it be that there was really no "Linglong Tower" here?

"Miss Qing'er, isn't there a 'Linglong Tower' here?" asked Yun Wuji.

"There's a 'Linglong Tower' here. However, the 'Linglong Pagoda' is the tower of the Maoshan faction, and it is full of scriptures, immortals, and magic weapons of the Maoshan faction. Bai Ling is a fox demon, how could that Taoist priest press Bai Ling in the 'Linglong Tower'. ”

Qing'er's words make sense. Flannel said, "Senior brother, you must have been deceived by that Taoist priest." Immortal artifacts are all nourished by the spirit of heaven and earth, and what I am most afraid of is demonic energy. The Taoist priest is a native of Maoshan, as you said, he can also enchant the arts, and he should be a demon master, or a grandmaster. How could he not know this? ”

"Why did he lie to me?" asked Yun Wuxian.

"Could it be that he deliberately led you to the 'Linglong Tower' to achieve the purpose of not being told?" asked Qing'er.

Yun Wuxian shook his head.

Flannel pondered for a moment and said, "Otherwise, let's go to the head of Qingfeng tomorrow and tell him about it." I think that the Taoist priest of Maoshan deliberately destroyed the magic weapon of Maoshan. Perhaps, that person is a traitor to Maoshan, and the head of Qingfeng will help you. ”

"Aunt Dao's words make sense. Qing'er said, "I've been here for many years. I heard that the head of Qingfeng is a person of high morality, who treats people and things, and is very charitable, if you go to him, he will definitely help. ”

"Okay, Qing'er. My sister and I will go to see the head of Qingfeng tomorrow. Have you been here all along?" asked Yun Wuji.

"I'll wait for you to bring the Maoshan talisman and let me out. Qing'er said, "Brother Dog, get rid of you." ”

Under the leadership of Qing'er, Yun Wuxian and Flannel walked out of the dense forest. When the two returned to the backyard, it was already dawn. Steward Yu was standing at the door, holding a stick in his hand, waiting for them menacingly.

"It's broken. Flannel whispered, "Senior brother, looking at the posture, we will inevitably suffer a meal of flesh and skin." ”

"Senior sister, don't worry, I have me. You see how I convince the steward. Yun Wuxian said proudly.

While talking, the two came to the door. Steward Yu pointed at the two of them with a stick and said angrily, "You two, kneel down for me." ”

Yun Wuxian looked at Steward Yu and asked, "Senior brother, do you mean me?"

"Presumptuous, it's just the two of you here. I'm not talking about you, am I talking about ghosts?" said Steward Yu angrily.

"Senior brother is amazing. Yun Wuxian rushed to the steward and clenched his fists, and said with a look of admiration on his face, "How does Senior Brother know that Senior Sister and I have gone down the mountain to recover the evil spirits." ”

"Nonsense. Steward Yu said angrily, "You two, you just entered Maoshan Mountain. The scriptures don't know yet. Why do you subdue demons and eliminate ghosts? I see that your kid doesn't shed tears when he doesn't see the coffin. ”

Steward Yu raised the stick in his hand and was about to fall, Yun Wuxian took a step forward, grabbed Steward Yu's stick and said, "Senior brother, don't worry, the two of me are in front of you, and I can't run." You just listen to what I say, and if what I say is unreasonable, if you beat me again, I have nothing to say. ”

"You say, you say. Steward Yu said fiercely.

"Senior brother, you also saw it. Senior Brother Feng and I, the two of us, were sent by the mysterious old way. ”

"Shut up. Steward Yu said angrily, "Choosing the Taoist chief is our ancestor, you dare to call him by his name, he should be beaten, he should be beaten." ”

"Good, good. This time I was wrong. It's time to play. Yun Wuxian raised his slap, but it landed lightly on his face. He laughed and said, "Senior brother, you can't blame me for this." When I met my master, he said that I could call him by his name. By the way, senior brother, you still don't know the relationship between me and my ancestor. Today, I'll tell you in detail. ”

Steward Yu raised his hand and said, "You don't need to say anything. I don't want to hear it. Just tell me, what did you two do last night?"

"Last night, the two of us really went ghost hunting. Yun Wuxian said, "It's just that the real ghost hunters are not the two of us. It's Shizu, and Senior Brother Feng and I are watching from the sidelines. If Senior Brother doesn't believe it, I'll take Senior Brother to see Senior Ancestor now, and we can confront each other face to face. ”

Steward Yu has been in Maoshan for many years, and he has long heard that Xuanji is an eccentric person. He didn't have the guts to go to the mystery. Therefore, for what Yun Wuxian said, Manager Yu could only doubt the letter.

"It's over. If I had known you were lying, I would not have spared you. Steward Yu said.

"Thank you, brother. Yun Wuji said, "We can go in." ”

Steward Yu put the stick across the door, pointed to the flannel with his other hand, and said, "She can go in." You can't. ”

"Why?" Yun Wuxian said angrily, "Senior brother, you can't just bully me because he is more beautiful than me." ”

"It's over. There's one more thing you haven't explained to me clearly. The steward beckoned inside, saying, "Come out for me." ”

As soon as Steward Yu's voice landed, the little Taoist priest walked out of the firewood room, he lowered his head, and moved to Steward Yu step by step. Yun Wuxian looked at Xiao Daotong and asked puzzledly, "Senior brother, did he make a mistake?"

"Yes, he's guilty. ”

"You're not fair. Yun Wuxian said, "Senior brother, senior brother committed a crime, you can't even be punished with me." We don't have a sit-down rule here. ”

Steward Yu pointed at the flannel with a stick and said angrily: "I let you go, why don't you leave." Do you want to be punished with it?"

Where has Flannel been so angry, her phoenix eyes widened angrily, and she was about to have a seizure. Yun Wuxian hurriedly stretched out his hand and grabbed the flannel, and said, "Senior brother, senior brother asked you to go back." You've had a hard night, so go back. ”

Flannel didn't want to move yet, Yun Wuxian winked at Flannel, and Flannel saw that Yun Wuxian was telling him that he could handle the current situation alone.

Flannel then bowed his head and left.

"You both kneel for me. Steward Yu put the stick on Yun Wuji's shoulder and pressed it down hard. The clouds are traceless and push upwards vigorously. Steward Yu used all his strength, but he couldn't make Yun Wuxian succumb. In the end, he took his anger out on Xiao Daotong.

"You get down on my knees. ”

The little Taoist priest knelt down obediently, and the steward Yu raised the stick and smashed it down on the back of the little Taoist priest. Yun Wuxian was taken aback. He pondered, this stick fell on the little Taoist, and the little Taoist would have to lose half his life if he didn't die.

Having made up his mind, Yun Wuxian took the lead, and when the stick fell, he stretched out his arm, and the stick smashed Yun Wuji's arm. The stick was broken into two sections.

Steward Yu was taken aback.

He looked at the half-cut stick in his hand, and then looked at Yun Wuxian, and after a while, Yu came back to his senses.

"Okay, you kid can work hard, no wonder you don't take me seriously. After looking left and right for the steward, he brought another stick and said angrily, "Aren't you very powerful?" Today, I'm going to show you if you're good or the stick in my hand is great. ”

Steward Yu raised the stick again, and Yun Wuxian took a step forward and grabbed the stick in Steward Yu's hand.

"Senior brother, it's not right for you to do this. Yun Wuxian said, "If you want to beat someone, you have to give us a reason." Why are you beating me up for being such a good little brother?"

"You don't know?"

"I don't know anything. Yun Wuxian said, "Tell me, what mistake did I make?"

Steward Yu took out the golden lock from his body, shook it in front of Yun Wuji's eyes, and said, "Do you know this thing?"

Yun Wuxian looked at Steward Yu, and then at Xiao Daotong, who was still kneeling on the ground. Yun Wuxian kicked Xiao Daotong and asked, "Senior brother, didn't I tell you, don't tell anyone." How did you let Senior Brother know?"

"If you don't want anyone to know, you can't do it unless you do. Steward Yu said, "Article 36 of the Maoshan Precepts, Maoshan disciples shall not be greedy for money, and shall not accept unknown things. You two, this is a transgression. And I will not only punish you. I'm going to take you to see the head of the breeze. ”

When Yun Wuxian heard that the steward was going to take him to see the Qingfeng Daoist, his heart moved, this was something he couldn't ask for.
