Chapter Seventy-Nine: Building a Circle and Waiting for the Xuanshi Two Struggles
Liu Qingyun borrowed the soil to escape into the sky, and he looked around. I saw that there were lights shaking in the south of Shuanglong Town, and it was now the third watch in the middle of the night, and basically all the lights of the people were out. Even if there is, it is not as bright as due south. Liu Qingyun faintly saw that there were flags fluttering in the light. Liu Qingyun nodded, it seemed that he had found them.
Liu Qingyun urged the light to escape, and he arrived at the south of Shuanglong Town. He saw that there was a big forest next to him, Liu Qingyun pinched an invisibility trick in his hand, and the shadow fell into the clouds. He hid behind a large tree and looked out over where the flags were waving in front of him.
Thirty zhang away from Liu Qingyun, there was an open space. The circle of this empty space can be seven zhang in size. Seven high poles were buried on the edge of this open space, and a string of dead wind lanterns were hung on each pole, and a square earth platform was erected in the center of the open space, which was three feet three feet high and one zhang six wide, and the earth platform was smashed quite strongly. There are two altars on the earthen platform, on which are placed vegetarian wax, incense burner, yellow paper, cinnabar, brushes, money, grapefruit leaves, a bowl of rootless water, and a bowl of cereals. At the back of the Dharma platform, there were two Taishi chairs, on which Jingtian and Jingxuan each sat with a seven-star sword.
Around the earthen platform, twelve flags were also hung. Each banner is more than three feet wide and more than two feet long. There are runes painted with red cinnabar and silver powder on it. When the wind blows, the flags flutter. The runes shimmered with silver light due to the silver powder. The twelve flags swayed, and the silver light shimmered very beautifully.
But what interests Liu Qingyun the most is not the twelve flags. Rather, in front of the earthen platform, there are twelve large vats parked. Each of the twelve vats is two arms thick. The mouth of each cylinder was pasted with runes. Around the vat, there are also three oil lamps. Liu Qingyun could see that this oil lamp also had a doorway. Because every oil lamp shines with green light. Liu Qingyun really hasn't heard of it, who still uses a vat. So he was very curious about these twelve vats.
There are four more behind the earth platform, that is, Xu Jingfeng, Feng Siming and Jingtian Jingxuan's two apprentices, Yiming and Yixin. There are three Dharma flags around the four people, and the four people are surrounded in the middle according to the position of the three talents. Yiming and Yixin each grabbed a sword, one left and one right to protect Xu Jingfeng and Feng Siming in the middle.
Liu Qingyun frowned, why did you bring these two people? Isn't this adding to the chaos? In fact, Jingtian and Jingxuan didn't want to bring the two of them here, but Feng Siming was determined to follow. He thinks that he is also a martial arts master. Because he was speechless for a while, he left the Flying Star Dao Chief, and when he heard Jingtian and Jingxuan say that this shadow ghost was very tricky, the Flying Star Dao Elder left, and it seemed that there was a shortage of manpower. He knows martial arts, can't he be prepared to help a little when the time comes? So he followed, Xu Jingfeng was the town manager, and he thought that he couldn't be left behind. He saw Feng Siming coming. He followed. It's not that Jingtian and Jingxuan haven't persuaded them, but these two just don't listen. There is no way, Jingtian and Jingxuan, let the two disciples protect these two.
Liu Qingyun looked around, he didn't understand. Apparently, they were planning to subdue the Shadow Phantom here. But where are these shadows? Are they just waiting here? Waiting like themselves? But looking at their posture, they don't look like it.
At this moment, Jingtian stood up and looked up at the sky. He turned back to Jing Xuan and said, "Senior brother is almost there, shall we start?" Jing Xuan sighed: "Alas! It seems that the Flying Star Daoist will not be able to come." He turned back to Yoshiaki and Yoshishin and said, "You two, no matter what happens for a while, don't leave the two benefactors." Do you know that you want to protect the two donors and yourself?"
Yiming and Yixin's tears were about to fall, and the little brothers were trembling with their hands holding the sword. Yixin raised his neck and looked at the sky: "Department of Fu, Xibo (master, uncle)." Are you waiting for a while (let's wait a little longer)?Why don't you come to the Cullinan Dao (if you can't prepare the Flying Star Dao Chief, you're coming soon)?" Before he could finish speaking, Jing Xuan waved his hand at him.
Why did Yixin say that? It turned out that Xu Jingfeng scattered his hands and went to find Liu Qingyun. But how did he know that Liu Qingyun had changed, and in order not to attract attention, after going out, it was time to disguise himself. This time, he turned into a layman and took off his Taoist clothes. Do you think Liu Qingyun should have changed his appearance and dressed up? Where did the family of the Xu Mansion go?
During the period when the family was looking for Liu Qingyun, Jingtian and Jingxuan discussed with Xu Jingfeng and made two preparations, on the one hand, looking for Liu Qingyun, and on the other hand, building a Dharma platform according to the requirements of Jingtian and Jingxuan. In order not to hurt the innocent, they set up the Dharma platform directly south of Shuanglong Town.
Jingtian and Jingxuan waited until the second watch, and there was no news of Liu Qingyun. But at this time, the Dharma platform had already been set up, Jingtian and Jingxuan looked at the sky, and the two discussed. decided not to wait for Liu Qingyun any longer, they got up and rushed to the Fatai. Originally, when they thought of Fatai, they did it to attract the shadows. But before they could do it, righteousness stopped them.
Jingtian and Jingxuan didn't understand why Yixin wanted to stop them? They knew that Yixin had a lot of ideas. It turned out that Yixin had never believed that Liu Qingyun was really gone, and he asked his uncle and master to wait a little longer, hoping that the lights around the Dharma platform would attract Liu Qingyun. As long as Liu Qingyun comes, the master and uncle don't have to work hard. Originally, there were not so many angry wind lamps around the Dharma platform, but it was righteousness that made three more lamp poles erected. Through this, you can see how delicate this righteous heart is and how delicate the child's heart is.
Jingtian and Jingxuan listened to Yixin's words and waited for Liu Qingyun for another hour. In the end, seeing that Liu Qingyun hadn't come yet, the two decided not to wait any longer. This time, even the righteous heart couldn't stop it, so he could only secretly pray in his heart that the master would be fine. He didn't know that Liu Qingyun had already arrived. I just didn't show up.
Speaking of Jingtian and Jingxuan, the two of them explained it, and they each stood in front of their own Dharma platform. The two of them moved in unison, first quickly laid out the yellow table paper, and then lifted the brush and drew a talisman. After the talisman was drawn, he took the rootless water, knocked his middle finger and put it in the rootless water. They closed their eyes and recited the mantra while shaking their middle fingers in the water. After a while, the bowl of rootless water turned red. On top of the rootless water, a layer of cyan mist arose with the appearance of this turbulent aura, and the faces of the two of them became much whiter. The two looked at each other and nodded at each other. I picked up the talisman I had just drawn, and with the nail of my little finger, I drew a small wound in the center of my eyebrows. Then he took a little blood from the center of his eyebrows and pressed it on the talisman paper. After that, quickly twist some incense ash and start folding the rune paper. The two of them quickly folded a paper figure out of rune paper. At this time, looking at the two of them again, their faces turned pale again.
After the two finished folding the paper figures, they paused for a while. When they had gasped, they each picked up the paper figure, chanted words in their mouths, and took the paper figure around the plain candle three times. Then they let go, and after they let go, the two paper figures spun in the air and slowly fell towards the rootless water bowl.
As the paper figure landed on the water skin, the cyan misty qi instantly turned into blood red. Then the paper figure began to rotate wildly, and as soon as the paper figure accelerated, a pillar of red light as thick as a porridge bowl rose into the sky. Moreover, the two red pillars of light coiled around each other, and when these two red lights reached more than ten zhang, they did not rise high. Instead, it turned into a thin layer of red light and stretched out in all directions. As time goes by, the area covered by the red light becomes larger and larger.
After about a cup of tea, the direction of the northeast suddenly changed, and the red light in the sky all poured to the northeast. Jingtian and Jingxuan quickly stopped chanting the mantra and loosened the spell. As soon as the two stopped, the red pillar of light was gone. But now the faces of the two of them are quite ugly. The two of them held their hands on the table and gasped.
Before the two of them could catch their breath, they heard a strange laugh from the northeast direction: "Yes, yes, your soul is much purer than that of ordinary mortals." It's just my taste. With this strange laugh, a cloud of dark smoke came to the front of the hair platform.
Liu Qingyun saw it really well behind the big tree, and after he saw this cloud of black smoke, his heart jumped into one. This black smoke is the shadow that he has been looking for. Liu Qingyun really wanted to run out now, but after thinking about it again, wait, this shadow ghost is too difficult. I had done it with him twice, but I let him run away. And this time, I saw the black smoke turned into the shadow, which was much bigger and darker than before. It seems that the current shadow ghost, the mana has recovered a lot, why don't you let Jingtian and Jingxuan test it first, and then go out to deal with it yourself. Thinking of this, Liu Qingyun didn't move.
At this time, the shadow ghost had already reached out with Jingtian and Jingxuan. Jingtian and Jingxuan each punched a rune on the seven-star sword, and shouted in their mouths: "Imperial Decree-, strike-." "Two seven-star swords flew out at the same time and slashed towards the shadow ghost. The Shadow Phantom let out a strange laugh, and the black smoke rose, and at the same time separated two puffs of black smoke to stop the two swords. The black smoke and the sword collided in one place, and a spark flashed. Jingtian and Jingxuan picked up the grapefruit leaf again, and they quickly drew a yin-yang fish on the reverse side of the grapefruit leaf, and a talisman on the front. Then he hung some incense ashes in the incense burner, and threw the grapefruit leaves towards the plain candle with his hand. As soon as the grapefruit leaf passed through the flames of the candle, it turned into several green lightsabers and stabbed at the shadow.
The shadow whirlwind spun quickly, and a layer of blue-purple mist blocked the attack of the green lightsaber. I heard the shadow ghost laugh: "Just these little tricks of yours, you also want to deal with me." Okay, I'm going to give you a long insight today. What is a spell?" said the Shadow Phantom, and the two puffs of black smoke that were separated shook for a while, and the color of the black smoke became darker and darker. At the front end of the black smoke, more than a dozen drops of viscous black liquid were sprayed.
These dozen drops of black liquid, as if they were spiritual, crashed into the green lightsaber and the two seven-star swords. The two seven-star swords fell from the air when they touched the black liquid. Anyway, the Seven Star Sword blocked the two drops of black liquid. The green lightsaber was not only beaten back to its original form by the black liquid, but also turned back into a grapefruit leaf, and turned into ashes. The black liquid was unobstructed, and rushed straight towards the Pure Heaven and Pure Xuan on the Dharma Altar.
Jingtian and Jingxuan were taken aback, saying that they didn't expect that their spells would be broken by Shadow Charm so easily. Jingtian grabbed a handful of grains and scattered them at the Dharma flag beside him. The banner vibrated and released bursts of color to block the black liquid, but when all the black liquid collided, the color of the banner became darker and darker. Soon one of the flags was hit by a drop of black liquid, and the flags trembled, instantly turning into powder, and even the flagpole turned into dust.
Jingxuan, who was on the side, hurriedly poured the grains into the rootless water. He mixed the grains with the rootless water with a little bit of hand, then grabbed the grains mixed with the rootless water and scattered them on the remaining flags. Suddenly, the banner shook violently, and white lotuses shining red appeared on the flag. The white lotus flowers each held the drops of black liquid. The crisis has finally been resolved.
At this time, Jingxuan sat down cross-legged, and he pinched his hair and said to Jingtian: "Senior brother, quickly." Activate the Yuanchen Gathering Array, I can't stand it for long?" After speaking, his hands kept changing spells, and his mouth recited the mantra. Jingtian gritted his teeth and looked at the shadow ghost, then turned around and looked at his apprentice, he stomped his foot: "Senior brother, you must resist before the formation is activated." ”
After Jingtian finished speaking, he picked up the rune paper and put twelve sheets on the Dharma platform. Lifting the brush on the rune paper, I drew twelve different runes. Then he picked up the first talisman and picked up a copper coin from the side, and he put it on his forehead, staining it with some blood from his eyebrows. After that, he used a talisman to put the copper wallet on it and folded a gossip shape. He stacked ten talismans in a row, and for each stack of talismans, his face became ugly. When Jingtian stacked the eleventh talisman, his body was already shaking a little. Jingtian gritted his teeth and held on, and finished stacking twelve talismans. When the stacking was over, Jingtian sat on the ground.
