Artisans in Tunli

Chapter 42 Difficult battle
Jiang Shan seemed to have been shocked by Zhuge's thunder and vomited blood. She wiped her lips and ran over to say something to me.

"Help him in first, the other one has escaped." After I finished speaking, I quickly helped Zhuge to stand up.Jiang Shan didn't seem to expect that not only did I improve rapidly in Taoism, but my mind was also brighter than before.

"Can you take it physically?" When Jiang Shan was talking, my gaze was fixed on the souls of the four ghosts in front of me.

Quickly wiped the rainwater off his face, and said to Jiang Shan, "Look!"

Jiang Shan turned around and found that the soul that was supposed to be dead seemed to be sucked by something in the old building and was flying rapidly inside. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared without a trace.

"No, they seem to be merging, let's hurry up, there is still a while before merging." After Jiang Shan finished speaking, they each picked up the things that could be used, and walked to the side door with the unconscious Zhuge.

When I entered the building, I took off my sweatshirt and began to wring the water, but Jiang Shan kept staring at my body.

"What's wrong? Are you hungry for my body?" I said jokingly.She was not angry, she reached out and touched the long wound on my right arm.

After a long time, she opened her mouth and said, "Is this why you practice Taoism?" Jiang Shan seemed a little sad. After so long, I found that I really didn't understand her. Now every word she said seemed to have another layer. meaning.

I used the fire charm to light a dry piece of cake on the ground, stretched out my hand to light the fire, and said lightly: "I practice Taoism. I just want the answer. No matter what, I will stick to it."

Indeed, I wanted to understand the mysteries that lay before my eyes, and I also enjoyed the excitement.

This cake is very small, and it will go out in a while, so I found a few more wooden slats and put it on it, praying that I would not set the building on fire again.

"Even if you were to die, would you persevere?" Jiang Shan's words startled me, but she didn't come over to enjoy the fire, so she might dislike the burning thing I used.

I hurriedly said: "Dead? How can I die so easily! But it's fine if I die, I still have to go down and toss and toss." I quickly put on my clothes, now it's only ten degrees above zero outside, maybe even lower, if I get sick It would be troublesome.

"Then, what if I want you to die?" After speaking, Jiang Shan immediately pointed the jade sword at my neck.

"You, don't be kidding, this thing looks much sharper than before, don't scratch me."

I don't know why she said such a sentence, but looking into Jiang Shan's eyes, I found that she didn't seem to be joking with me, but her eyes were full of contradictions.

"Although we are just ordinary friends, for a few moments, I felt like I fell in love with you. I don't know why I think so, maybe I depend too much on you." I swallowed , thinking about these words of mine, I feel a little wet, but most of them are still true.

Seeing her speechless, he continued: "I don't know if you are serious, but at the very least, do you understand that you want me to die?"

Jiang Shan moved the sword away, her eyes filled with tears, she lowered her head and said slowly: "Forget it, I'd better let you go."

I hurried to her side and asked her what was going on. After crying for a long time, she told me an old story.

Her mother's name is Jiang Nianqing. After giving birth to Zhuge, she moved from Miao territory to Jiangsu.Her mother was not only born with a special physique, but was also very interested in metaphysics. Jiang Shan inherited her mother's physique.

After her parents argued numerous times over the use of voodoo, the two decided to divorce.

Jiang Nianqing brought Jiang Shan to the northeast and changed her surname.And Zhuge Xuanming followed her father and stayed in Jiangsu.

The things I heard from her didn't seem to have anything to do with me, so I just let her go and said that there might be a fierce battle soon.

"You don't know him, but someone in your family does. I don't know what relationship he has with you, but I know his name is Zhong Zhengshan." After Jiang Shan finished speaking, she turned her head away.

What?My uncle?I hurriedly asked her, where and where are these things?

"Zhong Zhengshan, that is, the great grandfather you mentioned, he once came to my house with an old man surnamed Ma to ask my mother for a favor." Jiang Shan said while crying.

"What are you busy with?"

"Let my mother go to hell with them and go down to get something." After Jiang Shan finished speaking, she looked at the jade sword in her hand.

"My great-grandpa and that surnamed Ma, asked your mother to go through the shade together to get such a little thing?" I asked, "Can't they get it by themselves?"

She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her arm and said: "You don't know, only my mother can find it, and it is said that it is hidden in the Palace of the Underworld in Fengdu City. "

The weeping made her hoarse, but she went on:

"After going through many obstacles, they finally got the jade sword, but the ghost guard guarding the palace also came back. But your uncle left my mother alone in the Yinsi Hall. Fortunately, the man surnamed Ma still has a conscience. I told your uncle that this was unjust, but your uncle just ran away as if he didn't hear anything." Jiang Shan calmed down a bit.

"The one surnamed Ma and my mother used a blindfold to cover up the yang, and stayed there for a long time, and escaped when the guards were lax. My mother said that one day all his descendants would be killed. .”

Jiang Shan said that she was quite young at that time, and her mother didn't tell her about these things, but she just remembered that Jiang Nianqing left home twice, and each time lasted for a long time. My son, that is, me, goes to school here.Jiang Shan, who had good academic performance, was forced to come here to go to school with me, trying to get close to me.

Although Jiang Nianqing was blinded by hatred, Jiang Shan was very kind and never wanted to hurt me.After she found out that I had entered the Tao, her mother even yelled at me.When Jiang Shan mentioned that I had the jade sword in my hand, her mother's eyes lit up, and she said that it would be fine if she didn't kill me, but she had to get the jade sword back.

So there was the play played by the old man in white.

"When we were drinking, I took advantage of your inattention and manipulated him. This is my mother's and I's unique spell. When the time is right, I will ask him to ask you for the jade sword." Jiang Shan was a little embarrassed Said, but now she had stopped sobbing.

I don't blame Jiang Shan, but I think her mother is so despicable and despicable, and her own daughter is used by her own daughter.

"It's okay, I can't use this sword anyway. You can hold it, it suits you better." I comforted her, but my heart felt cramped.

"Today, my mother actually asked me to kill you, but I can't do it, and I don't know what's going on with me. I really want to like it a little bit."

Before she finished speaking, a red shadow suddenly appeared behind her.I hurriedly pulled her to the left and subconsciously blocked her with my body.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Shan looked confused.

I only felt a little pain in my stomach. When I lowered my head, I didn’t know when a long gash had been opened on my stomach.

"How did this happen? Sit down quickly, and I'll stop the bleeding for you." Jiang Shan opened Zhuge's bag, took out gauze and a medicine bottle, poured out two beige worms, and stuffed them into my mouth.

"Open your mouth!"

When she was talking, I seemed to be a little tinnitus from the pain, and it took me a long time to get over it.I was still thinking about the red shadow just now. I didn't see who it was, but the dagger in her hand seemed familiar.

Could it be Sun Jing?
I swallowed the worm that Jiang Shan fed me, and she was talking about the miraculous effects of this worm, but my mind was full of Sun Jing's shadow. If it was really her, why did she want to harm us?
"Pa", Jiang Shan's slap really woke me up, and the pain on the wound became more and more clear.

"Why did you hit me?" I asked her.

"I think you're in a daze. I thought something happened to you? Woohoo." After she finished speaking, she began to cry again, "If you die, I'll definitely go down and beat you up."

I saw how aggrieved she was crying, so I hurriedly said: "Okay, I told you that I would die so easily. Don't cry, you look ugly when you cry. Come on, little girl, give me a smile." See Looking at Jiang Shan, who had already put on makeup, she smiled wickedly before the crying, really a bit wicked thought.

"These two worms you ate can help you stop bleeding. I saw you used the life-saving charm on Zhuge. Why are you acting like a fool!" After that, he tied the bandage on my stomach hard. stand up.

"Hey, be gentle, aunt."

Actually, I don't know whether the wound is deep or not, I just feel that the pain is getting smaller and smaller now, maybe the Gu worms are really working.

"You said that the person who attacked us just now might be your ex-girlfriend?" Jiang Shan wiped away her tears and said.

I nodded and said: "I'm not sure, but we can't waste time here, the key is to find those beasts as soon as possible."

I looked at my watch, it's midnight now.This is the most cloudy time of the day, and I know what we will encounter next.

I took out the plastic bag in my bag, this was what I thought before going out, if I didn't put the plastic bag on, all the talismans I had worked so hard to save in the past few months would be useless.

Take out a body talisman from the bag, plus a pure heart talisman, and quickly stick it on Zhuge's head, so as not to be taken advantage of by the five ghosts.Tell Jiang Shan that it is inconvenient to take Zhuge with him, so let him be here.She didn't care much about the life and death of his own brother, but instead asked me if I was still in pain.

"Is that how you treat your brother?"

"Hey, we didn't know each other very well. When my mother brought me to the Northeast, my father's business was not good, so he took him to become a Taoist priest." Jiang Shan said as she walked up the stairs.It's inconvenient for me to talk too much about their family affairs, so I just deal with her with "uh-uh-uh".

"Hey, where is the black gate?" Jiang Shan asked curiously.

"It's right if there is no door. The last time our door appeared, I went back and checked the calendar carefully. That night was the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar. In Taoist theory, the full moon belongs to the day of nourishing yin. It may be when there is ugliness added to the full moon. It was opened." I lifted up my clothes, bit my scabbed left hand, and drew a vajra amulet on my chest.

Jiang Shan looked at my operation and said with satisfaction: "To be honest, you have improved a lot, but you are still that silly Thirteen. Hee hee."

I was relieved to see the cute canine teeth in her mouth.Xin said, you are still that eccentric Jiang Shan.

"Today is July [-]th, so when the ugly time comes, we can verify whether what I said is right." After I finished speaking, I coughed violently, and then my throat became sweet, and I spit out a mouthful of blood.

"It's okay, don't worry, it's a side effect of my Gu. I will cough up blood from time to time, so it's okay." Jiang Shan said disapprovingly.

When I was outside just now, I let the energy out of my body in order to preserve my strength.But I didn't expect to be attacked by surprise.So, he quickly closed his eyes and rested his mind, condensing his spiritual energy again.

As soon as the Qi Refining was activated, he felt a powerful resentment attacking rapidly along the corridor on the second floor.

"Not good, they should have fit together, just ahead, ready to fight." I pointed to the other side of the corridor.

Jiang Shan quickly took out the red talisman and wiped it on her forehead, it should be to open her eyes or something.

"This time you come to cover me, you have brought enough talismans." Jiang Shan asked me with her big eyes blinking. She has put on makeup, and now her gothic style is more intense.

"Please, please." After I finished speaking, I moved to the middle and poured out all the talismans in the bag. Most of them were ghost-killing talismans. Now that I'm injured, I'm afraid I can use this talisman .

"Emergency is like a law!" This was the first time I saw Jiang Shan yelling this sentence. I felt a little awkward. Before I finished speaking, I threw a talisman into the dark corridor.

"Hee hee hee", she turned her head and smiled at me, as if she realized that what she said was a bit rusty.And I hastily twisted up the talisman with my bloody right hand, with my left hand behind my back, and threw out the five ghost-killing talismans.

The light of the ghost-killing talisman is a bit different from the previous one, it is more milky white, it may be that my mana has improved.

As soon as the resentful spirit showed its head, it was hit by the six-path talisman and retreated with a strange scream.While I was still chuckling, Jiang Shan had already taken the opportunity to sneak over.Looking at her from this angle, I found that her ass was really perky.While I was still savoring the aftertaste, I coughed up a few more mouthfuls of blood.

Are the side effects of this Gu technique really not that big?Why do I feel that she is speaking for herself? Could it be that Jiang Shan wanted to kill me when she fed me worms?
If I die at her hands, I won't regret it, and my father will pay his debts.The grievances of the ancestors also end with me.It's a pity that I haven't made a will yet, and I was thinking about finding a piece of chalk. After making a will, I was suddenly awakened by Jiang Shan's shouts.

"Hey, where are you! Hurry up and cover me, this guy is very big!" Jiang Shan dexterously dodged left and right and jumped back.

"Sorry, I'm a little distracted, I'll be fine soon." I continued to throw the ghost-killing talisman forward.It may be that the enemy's strength is too strong, but there is still no improvement.

"I've cut it many times, but I still can't see it getting smaller." Jiang Shan has retreated to my side, panting.

I hastily threw out a vajra body talisman, and an invisible large shield blocked the five ghosts. Judging by the opponent's posture, the shield might not last long.

"It seems that I have to use Lei Qilin." After speaking, he immediately picked up the talisman, thinking about using it on the sword, but after thinking about it, he gave up.Now I am physically injured and not fit for close combat.

Enduring the severe pain in his abdomen, he began to step on foot and chanted mantras.A huge white light flew out, passed through the shield formed by the Vajra Body Amulet, and shot straight into the body of the disgusting five ghosts in front.

It twitched for a moment, and then a big hole was exposed at the place where it was hit, and a small head poked out from it, which was the ran away wraith who had smirked at me lewdly before.

"It seems that you still have some skills, but it's a pity that the power is too small." The little devil actually spoke, and was still provoking us.

"Hey, Thirteen, have you ever heard this thing talk?" Jiang Shan was a little surprised, I said I had heard it just once, but I had never seen such an arrogant one.

After the little ghost finished speaking, he suddenly exerted force and broke the wall on one side. Then, before the stone hit the ground, he slapped it hard, and the bricks and tiles flew straight towards us.

Maybe it was because I had nothing to do before, and I practiced dodging with Jing Jing, and I basically didn't get hit.But Jiang Shan was a little miserable. She was slapped squarely by a whole brick and fell to the ground all of a sudden.Fortunately, this building has a long history, and the bricks are already ruined, otherwise she would have a big hole in her head.

"How are you? Are you okay?" I quickly helped her up from the ground.

She shook her head, rubbed the big bulge on her forehead, and cursed: "MD, it's so smart, it can also use physical attacks! Hey, do you see if I'm disfigured?" Jiang Shan pouted and cursed. , it seems like nothing is wrong.

So, I continued to throw ghost-killing talismans at it, trying to delay the time.When it's ugly, there may be a door that will block it there.

But now after the fusion of the five ghosts, it seems that they have developed an antibody to my ghost-killing talisman, and it doesn't hurt or itch when it hits it. It slowly presses against my talisman and approaches us.

"My talisman is useless to it, what should I do? If it doesn't work, I have to use the thunder unicorn."

After I finished speaking, I felt as if I was drooling, and my chin was wet. I touched it with my hand and found that it was blood.Are they all flowing out now?I vomited a mouthful of blood on the ground and wiped my mouth, thinking that there was no need to waste so much blood, so I would let you beasts taste my blood curse.

"You can use it after you think about it. You are in poor physical condition now. Why don't we procrastinate and wait for the cock to crow?"

Jiang Shan's words made me dumbfounded, and said with a wry smile, "This is a university, how can there be chickens!"

She also seemed to think there was something wrong with what she said, and quickly complained that it was the brick that confused her.

I threw another vajra amulet over to hold it first.On the other side of the shield, the little ghost kept laughing strangely, as if laughing at our embarrassment.

Laugh, I will make you cry!I said to Jiang Shan: "You wait for the time first, I have to find time to use as a book talisman." She nodded, put the jade sword on her waist, and began to cover for me, throwing the body talisman at the wraith.

I simply took off my shirt and threw it aside.When I bit off the wound on my left hand, I didn't know if I had a tendency to masochistic, and I didn't hesitate at all when I bit my hand.

After I finished writing the blood spell, I started walking the Seven Dou Kuigang Steps. Now that I was familiar with the steps, I finished the walk in an instant. Then I pointed my sword at the kid's head and shouted: "Leibu Masami taught me how to kill ghosts." You and Shenfang are as urgent as the law! Die! Disgusting beast!"

A golden light shot out between his fingers, but the kid reacted very quickly. Seeing the golden light shooting towards it, he immediately hid in the classroom next to him.Jiang Shan reacted quickly, threw a talisman into the classroom, and kept cursing: Let you hit my old lady with a brick!

Although my blood curse missed the kid, it still destroyed half of its body.

When the golden light ended, my whole body seemed to have been emptied out, and I fell limp.I asked Jiang Shan weakly if they were dead.

Jiang Shan said that half of it should be killed. If it didn't escape, it might be dead.

"Hey, it looks like we're really going to end up here." I stuck my bleeding finger into the chalk dust on the ground, trying to stimulate myself to wake up, but my eyelids continued to fall.

"Get up quickly, don't sleep!" Jiang Shan threw away all the talismans, ran over and shouted.
