Chapter 61: The Black Shop (I)
Yu Xiu picked up the long knife and held it in his hand, feeling the cold touch of the blade.
"Huh?" he narrowed his eyes slightly, carefully examining the two strange lines on the knife.
The winter knife is the standard official knife of the Yan Dynasty government, the blade is slender and straight, very similar to the embroidered spring knife that Yu Xiu heard in his previous life, and it looks good.
And Yu Xiu pinched the knife at this time, and there was a faint feeling of blood connection. Although this feeling is extremely weak, and if you don't care about it, you will ignore it, but Yu Xiu is a cultivator, and he has a keen sense and will never be mistaken.
He suddenly remembered a side comment in the "Book of Martial Arts", "There are also nine grades of weapons, which are divided into twenty-seven meridians. ”
Yu Xiu's heart moved, he condensed the blood and qi in his body, held the long knife tightly, and pinched the handle of the knife to death. At this moment, the long knife in his hand trembled slightly, and a subtle knife sound sounded.
Yu Xiu picked up the long knife and slashed lightly in the air, the long knife seemed to cut through the air, and it made a clear sound again. At the same time, his connection with the long knife increased greatly, and the knife was like his limbs.
Seeing such a strange scene, Yu Xiu ran to a stone lamp, his blood surged again, holding a long knife, and slashed at the stone lamp.
With a bang, the long knife slashed through the stone lamp, slashing diagonally, and directly cutting the stone lamp in half.
"This knife is very fast. ”
Yu Xiu saw the effect and had to admire. It's no wonder that when fighting swords that day, the county lieutenant could cut his long sword with one sword.
He could feel that there seemed to be a suction force in the blade that could drain the blood qi from his body, thus making the long knife more closely connected to him, and the blade sharper.
"Nine products and twenty-seven meridians. Yu Xiu recalled the side criticism on the "Book of Martial Arts", and guessed in his heart: "There are two lines on the body of this knife, which may be two meridians." In terms of conversion, it belongs to the nine grades of weapons. ”
Only the ninth-grade long knife can already break the sword and break the stone, if it is a medium-grade or even high-grade weapon, what kind of appearance should it be......
Yu Xiu thought about it, and said, "I don't know how the magic weapons of the Immortal Dao are divided, and what is the wonderful effect?"
After playing with the winter knife carefully, Yu Xiu finally put it in the sheath, and then took out the things he had brought with him, and began to work on another thing.
Dozens of people died in the county government of Beiguo County, and no one came to clean up the corpses, resulting in the county government no longer being majestic and majestic before, but becoming gloomy, with a kind of barren hills and ancient mounds.
In fact, the yin qi in this place is extremely rich, more than ten times higher than that in Yizhuang, which is already comparable to mass graves.
Fortunately, the corpses in the yamen are all dried corpses, and the blood has already been completely sucked dry, and compared with ordinary corpses, the difficulty of corpse transformation is greater.
But if you leave it alone, there is still the possibility of corpse transformation after all.
What Yu Xiu wants to do now is to help the needy, eliminate disasters for the people in the county, and suppress the corpse qi in the yamen!
He pulled out stacks of yellow paper, held a cinnabar pen, and began to draw corpse talismans with full concentration.
The three corpse talismans in his hand had already been used, and if he didn't seize the opportunity to draw new talismans, he wouldn't have any talismans to use.
It's rare to encounter a fierce place with a strong yin qi, which can increase the success rate of corpse talisman drawing, and you won't let go of the rest of your life!
One by one, the yellow paper fell, and Yu Xiu lay on top of the coffin, without the slightest slackness.
A whole night passed.
When the day was about to dawn and the rooster crow sounded in the county, Yu Xiu raised his head sleepily. He looked sideways at the three black runes placed on the coffin on the right, and there was a hint of joy in his eyes.
Compared with before, Yu Xiu's cultivation has improved a lot, and his level of drawing talismans has also improved, and he can draw three corpse talismans in one night.
However, this is also a great drain on energy, he has neither rested nor eaten or drunk all night, just drawing talismans, and the whole person is groggy and needs to sleep for a day.
Stretching his body, Yu Xiu walked out of the hall and looked at the morning light on the horizon, and said secretly in his heart: "It's time to go back to the inn to have a good rest, and then go on the road to find the ghost market." ”
He immediately pinched the three corpse talismans and walked over to the dozens of dried corpses in the county office.
I saw Yu Xiu stick the corpse talisman on the forehead of the dried corpse one by one, and within five breaths, the corpse talisman would fall off on its own, and the talisman paper would become darker.
After working hard for a while, he took away all the corpse qi accumulated by dozens of dried corpses in the county government, completely extinguishing the possibility of them becoming friends.
However, although the corpse will not be transformed again, if it is not disposed of, there is a possibility that it will cause a plague. Luckily, it was winter, and the body should be able to wait until someone came to pick it up.
I just can't, and I don't bother to care about it.
With a knife and a talisman in his hand, he strode out of the county office, rushing in as unscrupulously as before.
I had a good rest in the hotel for a day and a night.
Early the next morning, Yu Xiu rode on horseback.
......
On this day, Yu Xiu was riding a lean horse and was walking on a dirt road in the wilderness.
He had a slender straight knife straddling his waist, and the knife had been unsheathed, and it looked so new that he had a hint of the chic of a freshly dressed angry horse in his gestures.
Yu Xiu pinched a black wooden plaque, looked into the distance from time to time, and suddenly saw a tiled house.
The tiled house is built next to the road, the wooden fence is wide open, and there is a flagpole in the courtyard, on which is hung the word "shop", which should be a hotel.
Yu Xiu saw this store and exhaled.
After leaving Beiguo County, he had walked nearly 100 miles, but it took six days to go around and around along the way, crossing mountains and rivers.
What's more, after leaving Beiguo County, he never met many people or hotels, and spent two of the three days sleeping in the wilderness.
Thanks to his caution, he prepared dry food in advance, otherwise he would have to hunt and eat along the way, which would delay the trip even more.
"Drive. Yu Xiu kicked the horse's belly lightly, so that the thin horse could hurry up.
The thin horse Xu also saw the room and knew that he could rest well, so he snorted a few times, and hurriedly ran up.
Yu Xiu rode into the courtyard and opened his mouth to shout: "Shop, is anyone there?"
After a long time, the sound of rustling sounded in the tiled house, and a yellow-faced man pushed away the cloth and walked out of the house.
The man was five short in stature, and when he saw Yu Xiu, he rubbed his hands, grinning at the corners of his mouth, and did not talk.
Seeing that he looked sluggish, Yu Xiu thought that he was deaf or dumb-mouthed, so he dismounted himself and tied the horse to the stable beside him.
"Stay in the hotel, please feed the horses. Yu Xiu arched his hand.
The yellow-faced man nodded, walked to the stable, and neatly filled the manger with a bucket of water, then pulled out the guillotine, and began to cook the hay, with his hands and feet sharp.
Yu Xiu took a few looks at the hotel and found that the front yard and the back room were not big, most of them were mom-and-pop shops, just for passers-by to rest and earn hard money.
Yu Xiu lifted the curtain and walked towards the house.
As soon as he walked in, he paused in his steps, and smelled a strong aroma of meat in his nose, the sauce was fragrant, it should be someone in the kitchen to concoct food......
