Chapter 90: What the hell
"Ryuko is looking for him. Li Yunxin looked at Pei Jiezi. He didn't know when Ling Kongzi noticed that something was wrong with this painter from Jinghua, but he knew that the artist who was possessed was already under control.
Pei Jiezi sat upright behind the desk, but his eyes became a little panicked - he couldn't move.
"Me and Ryuko...... Hmm, I'll call him the Ninth Prince. After I returned to Weicheng with the Ninth Prince, he disappeared. During that time, accidents also began to occur near Weicheng - I thought he did it, but then I felt that the method was different. β
"Some time ago I was walking around the city and asked some people. Some people have relatives living in the suburbs who happen to have dead cattle in their homes. When I asked about the state of death, I knew that it should not be done by the Ninth Prince - the Ninth Prince eats people, but this thing eats souls. β
"And at that time, I already had this idea, and I began to check the ninth son. From the temple records of the Dragon King Temple, I guessed that he was the ninth son of the dragon - and now you also say that he is the son of the dragon, then I guessed right. β
"I found it again in the temple records...... As long as there are relatively abnormal precipitation records in the record, almost all people will go missing. The ninth prince loves to eat people, and he is a dragon. So I guess...... He is the ...... of the temple Weishui Dragon King. β
"If he is the Dragon King of Weishui, this neighborhood will be his territory. I think he should be a family man - according to his appetite, he only eats about a dozen people a year near Weicheng, which is too restrained. Now there are people making trouble on his turf - even if it is the soul of eating cows, he can't bear it. β
"But then I learned that it wasn't just cows that were eaten, but that many poultry were also dying. It's just a cow, a cow can almost change the luck of a farmer's life, it's a big animal, so everyone is talking about cows. β
"Then I guess the Ninth Prince is looking for this thing...... This ghost. Just now he came in, and the world was stormy. As for him, he looked into the sky with all his might. I could tell he was a little smug. Because the ninth prince should be looking for him in the sky of Weicheng at this moment. But what I'm curious about is ......"
"You can't find a big demon like the Ninth Prince, but you can be restrained by us. But just now, I didn't feel any yin aura at all. So ......"
"What the hell is Your Excellency?"
He had already turned to the "Pei Jiezi" and asked sincerely and curiously.
Volley flicked his fingers, as if to unlock some kind of prohibition. So this "Pei Jiezi" spat out a human voice: "Why do you bind me?"
β...... Sure enough, he can speak human words. Li Yunxin praised from the bottom of his heart, "I saw him silent before, and he was always the one who spoke, and I thought he couldn't speak human words." β
"It looks like a hundred-year-old ghost. Ling Kongzi said, "It is common to be able to learn people's words. They were originally human beings, but they became ghosts and wandered in the yang world by chance. But after staying in the yang world for a long time, people like this devouring souls will slowly learn about personnel again-look at this one, at least, there are two hundred years of Taoism. β
"Ah...... I don't really understand that. In this way, this ghost has lived for a long time, isn't it no different from people? It will be stronger, you see, and it will also be magical. β
Li Yunxin was asking for advice, and Ling Kongzi answered him. Only this ghost was still glaring, and asked "Why did you bind me" - at this time, it showed that it was different from "people".
"Ghosts are yin spirits after all. Ling Kongzi patiently replied, "The soul is originally one with the body and is inseparable. When a person dies, there is a ghost. The reason why it is called a ghost and no longer a divine soul is because the body is the temple of souls. When the body dies, the soul will inevitably be damaged, and if the temple of worship is lost, it will become a ghost. β
"So ghosts are actually damaged spirits. Even if it is lost, it will not be replaced. So no matter what, it's always different from people. For example, ghosts always have obsessions. Some things are actually missing parts of its body, and it is difficult to remember, and it is difficult to remember unless it is completed. You listen to this ghost - is anyone still saying that?"
Before, Li Yunxin only felt that this big ghost was talking strangely. At this time, listening to Ling Kongzi's words and tasting it carefully, I realized that it was really different from people - different from people now.
Although the Daqing Dynasty belonged to a hierarchical ancient society in Li Yunxin's eyes, its atmosphere was actually relatively enlightened and open. For example, a girl like Yin Xuerou from a good family can show her face on the street every day, and people don't feel that there is anything wrong.
In terms of etiquette and speech, it is much more "vulgar" than that of the previous dynasty.
For example, Liu Laodao doesn't understand the rules of today's Baohua banquet. It is said to be an ancient ritual, but it is actually a secular ritual that ordinary people in the previous dynasty would follow.
to the talk......
In the previous dynasty, both men and women were honored as kings. The people of the Daqing Dynasty laughed at the pedantic of the former dynasty, saying that when the two were arguing and scolding, they still called "Jun Nai is a scoundrel", which is quite funny. Look at this big ghost now......
It is also honored as "Jun".
"I need this ghost. Li Yunxin said, "It's not suitable here, I have to take it back." The Ninth Prince is looking for it, maybe it still knows something about the Ninth Prince. Anyway...... He used to be my friend. Even if I had to deal with him, I would have liked it to have me. So I wanted to know more about him. β
He looked at Ling Kongzi and repeated again: "I need this ghost." Hope you can help me. Wait for this matter, get the jade slip, and I will go back to the mountain with you. β
Ling Kongzi looked a little hesitant. Just now, Li Yunxin led the topic to the big ghost, and asked her some topics that could effectively make her relax. At this moment, her heart defense was relaxed again, and the hints implanted in Li Yunxin's heart gradually took over.
Her slender fingers tapped slightly on the back of her hand twice, and she suddenly asked, "You can make a treasure scroll like the Perverted Eating Map, which shows that your cultivation is about to reach the peak of the Transformation Realm." Danqing Taoist priests are not good at fighting, I know. But I see your breath...... Something doesn't seem right. β
"Because I fought with two swordsmen from the Lingxu Sword Sect beforeβat that time, I hadn't had much contact with the people of the Dao Sect and the Sword Sect. Those two Taoist priests carried powerful talismans on their bodies, sealing my snow-capped mountain qi sea. To this day, I can only use a little spiritual power. You read that right. Li Yunxin said truthfully, "But...... How could a swordsman of two schools, or a cultivator of the Realm of Artistic Conception, come to my house to find me?"
"On that day, they said that there was an old Taoist who said that I had a picture of mountains and rivers at home, and they came for it. I believe the words of those two fools, but I don't believe that the man who led them to me is really for the sake of Natu - probably just an excuse. According to the two swordsmen, it was the man who was dying that he said this, and they came to me. So I'm wondering, who is that person?"
He told the truth about his situation, knowing that it would reassure Ling Kongzi - this is what the other party wants to know.
I also know that the other party will have "Since this is the case, it is up to you for the time being." Don't be afraid of any intrigues you have - as long as you are brought up the mountain, everything is no longer a trouble" mentality - the other party also knows that he is not a fool.
If you are confident that you have the absolute power to control the final outcome, then if you have a good enough impression of yourself...... I don't mind some other small actions.
And she should also know that she is a difficult opponent.
Sure enough, after he said this, Ling Kongzi thought for a while and said, "Hmm." I see. That man...... It's inconvenient to talk to you for the time being. β
"As for the devil you want, and if you want to know something, let it be. If you want me to help, you can ask. β
"But in terms of time...... I hope no more than half a month. I've been out for a long time, it's time to go back to the mountain. β
"Good. β
Ling Kongzi thought about it again and said, "You are an interesting person and a smart person. But there is one word...... I'm still good at explaining it. β
"I am a Taoist priest, the pinnacle of the realm. The previous two low-level swordsmen could seal your sea of qi with talismans, and you should know that the Dao cultivators had some means to fight all the way. β
"So if I want to ......"
"Within a radius of ten miles from Weicheng, there is no one to live. β
"I hope you can make the right decision. β
