Chapter 48: The Coteria
"Eighteen, are you okay?" Li Ge, who looked panicked, hurriedly ran into the courtyard and helped the boy up from the ground.
"I'm fine, brother. Mao Shibai responded weakly, his eyes turned black, and his body fell backwards. Seeing this, Li Ge hurriedly hugged him, and his heart suddenly hung up.
Lin Yurou in the house removed the debris blocking the door, opened the door and hurriedly ran out, she anxiously held Mao Eighteen's wrist and called the pulse, and hurriedly took out a pill from her side and fed it, seeing Li Ge's nervous face, she immediately said softly, "Don't worry, Eighteen should have consumed too much spiritual power when he used the god just now, and it will be fine after a night's rest." ”
"That's good, that's good. Hearing Lin Yurou's words, Li Ge's hanging heart let go.
"Don't stand stupidly outside, let's take Eighteen into the house. Lin Yurou said softly, and her anxious face gradually eased.
"Hem~ It's all my fault, if I hadn't brought you here, this wouldn't have happened. After putting Mao 18 on the bed, Li Ge sat aside and bowed his head and blamed himself.
"How can I blame you for this? Eighteen and I came here voluntarily, don't blame yourself. Lin Yurou walked to Li Ge's side, stretched out her jade hand and patted the latter's shoulder, then retracted her hand again, and whispered, "It shouldn't be peaceful tonight, now that the rain has stopped, I'll go out and set up a formation outside to see if we can spend tonight safely." ”
"Formation? Okay, then I'll go and protect the Dharma for you. After hearing this, Li Ge hurriedly got up and followed Lin Yurou out of the house.
"I used to hear my aunt say that some of the formations of your cloth faction are also very exquisite. When she left the house, Lin Yurou casually asked Li Ge beside her.
"Really?" Li Ge smiled slightly, and then said, "Several formations of our cloth cloth faction are used to bind evil spirits, and I have also heard from the master that the formations of your Yunhe faction are broad and profound, and there are many other kinds of formations in addition to binding formations. ”
"Well, in fact, the formation can be roughly divided into three categories, one of which is the method of binding the formation, the small formation can bind the evil and trapped demons, and the large array can be ecstasy. The second is the method of condensing the array, which can borrow some aura between heaven and earth for people to cast spells. The third is the method of punishing the formation, which can be used to exercise some specific spells, or use some magic weapons with spiritual power to set up a killing formation. ”
"Oh~ In that case, the formations of our cloth faction should be the method of binding the formation. Li Ge stood in the courtyard, saw Lin Yurou squatting on the ground and seemed to be looking for something, and asked closely, "What are you looking for?"
"It's nothing, I'll find a few small stones of the same size. Lin Yurou took the stone in her hand and showed it to Li Ge.
"Are you looking for this kind of stone to use to set up a formation?" Li Ge asked curiously, then squatted down and continued, "I'll help you." ”
"Well, I'm going to set up a tie. Lin Yurou looked at Li Ge and nodded, seeing that he looked curious, she couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing, I'm just a little curious, the formations of our cloth faction all need formation flags or some specific things to be arranged, you can actually use ordinary small stones to form formations. ”
Listening to Li Ge's question, Lin Yurou grabbed a small stone and thought about it, and then explained, "In fact, most of the formations are arranged according to the Taoist Ten Directions, Nine Palaces, Eight Diagrams, Seven Stars, Liuhe, Five Elements, Four Elephants, Three Cai, Two Yi, and One Yuan. ”
After saying this, Lin Yurou saw that Li Ge was still full of doubts, and said with a smile, "The formation spells, Bugang, and the power of each sect's formation after the formation are different, so the method of arranging the formation is naturally different. ”
"Is that so?" Li Ge sighed in his heart, and handed the few small pebbles he picked up to Lin Yuju, "Yurou, do you see enough?"
"Enough. Lin Yurou took the pebble, circled around the yard in front of the house, put the pebbles in her hand on the edge of the yard, and then took out a carp-shaped jade pendant from the Qiankun bag on her side and buried it in the middle of the yard, got up and said to Li Ge, "You go into the house first." ”
"Good!" Lige nodded, turned into the house, and stood at the gate to watch. I saw a woman in a coarse cloth dress standing in the courtyard and stepping gracefully, like a dancing fairy. Her graceful figure would pause for a moment every time she took a step, as if it implied some kind of heavenly rule, which made people look awkward at a glance.
Under Li Ge's intently gaze, Lin Yurou's formation was laid out in a moment, she moved the lotus step lightly, and walked into the house with a tired face, seeing Li Ge's cheeks flushed and lowering her head, she smiled and whispered, "Okay, close the door." ”
"Okay~" Li Ge responded embarrassedly, stretched out his hand and closed the door, and the room suddenly became dark. He lifted his head, plugged the latch of the gate, and let out a long sigh of relief.
After Li Ge moved the tables, chairs, and sundries in the house back to the door, when he returned to the room, he saw Lin Yurou lying on the side of the bed with her eyes closed, and immediately picked up the bamboo window that had been knocked by the corpse before and reinstalled it on the empty window.
"Are you hungry?" In the dark room, Lin Yurou's soft whisper sounded.
"Okay, are you alright? I thought you were asleep. Li Ge sat quietly on a bench by the window, staring blankly at the bright moonlight outside the house.
"I'm fine, just take a break. Taking advantage of the faint light that came in through the crack in the window, Lin Yurou walked slowly to Li Ge's side, "Here, you can eat something first." ”
"I hope we can get away with tonight, and I'll take you and Eighteen back to the county early tomorrow morning. Taking the steamed buns handed over by Lin Yurou, Li Ge smiled and said, "Fortunately, you brought dry food, otherwise it would have been miserable today." ”
"Don't worry, tonight will be fine, and in the future, we will work together to exorcise evil spirits and subdue demons, and help the right path. Lin Yurou sat beside Li Ge and comforted softly.
"Together?" Li Ge heard Lin Yurou's words, and his heartbeat sped up a little.
"Yes, you, me, Eighteen, and Grandpa Qingxu's apprentice. Lin Yurou sighed lightly and said, "Although there are many cultivators of the thaumaturgy pavilion, and on the surface, they seem to be very united, but in fact, they are divided into several small circles, and they generally don't encounter any major things, and they don't act together." Just like this incident in Wushan, this is the first major event I have encountered since I entered the thaumaturgical pavilion with my aunt at the age of seven, and it is also the first time I have seen so many cultivators working together to deal with one thing. ”
"I see. Li Ge chewed the steamed bun in his mouth, and then said, "Is it that your aunt and my master, as well as the seniors of Yuanshan and Qingxu, are together?"
"Well, they've been together for decades, there were originally five of them, and then one of the seniors passed away. However, it seems that the senior took in an apprentice before he died, and I don't know if he will join us in the future. ”
"My master has never told me these things. Li Ge smiled bitterly and stuffed the last bite of steamed buns into his mouth.
"What does it matter if you don't know something? Grandpa Lai doesn't tell you, I think it's for your good. ”
Inside the room, the two sat quietly by the window and talked. Outside, the bright moonlight scattered in the village, which seemed unusually peaceful.
