Exorcism

Zhuozhou City was built along the river. After being destroyed by fire and soil attacks, it has turned into ruins. The river poured back and flooded most of the area. Only a relatively safe area remained in the northeast corner, including two sections of city walls, A city tower and more than a dozen courtyards.

It was quiet, not even the sounds of cats and dogs.

On a mountain peak eight or nine miles away, Mu Xingqiu was watching quietly. This was his second time here. Approaching Zhuozhou City for the first time, he noticed that there were a large number of complex spells deployed outside the city. He had only one mana, but did not remember how to use it. He was unable to avoid the many restrictions set by the Talisman Masters, so he returned the same way. I asked for some talismans from Fulin, and now I learned the art of offering sacrifices to talismans.

Less than an hour passed between the two arrivals. A lot of changes had taken place inside and outside Zhuozhou City. The roads and houses were completely destroyed by the soil attack. Even the peaks at Mu Xingqiu's feet were lowered. Only the The northeast corner of the city remains unchanged.

Mu Xingqiu didn't want to force his way in. His promise was to save people, not kill people.

He held out a piece of paper talisman, and three moths flapped their wings and flew towards Zhuozhou City. Although the speed was slower, they were very stealthy. On the way back, Mu Xingqiu had checked all the talismans and roughly guessed the purpose of each talisman. He had a feeling that these talismans seemed to waste a lot of mana and there was room for improvement, but he could only use the talismans now. Original spell.

The three moths alert each other and bypass the invisible restrictions created by the talisman. In a safe place, they will speed up and fly at a speed that normal insects cannot fly.

Mu Xingqiu stood with his back against a tree, took out another paper talisman, closed his eyes, and the scenes of three moths appearing in his mind in turn, and he could also command them to change direction. The scene was not very clear, as if it was covered with a veil, and due to the influence of the night, the scenery was even hazier, which made Mu Xingqiu, who had the Third Eye, not used to it.

He decided that if he had the opportunity, he must improve the talismans so that they could exert their full power.

Looking through the cracks in the doors and windows, there are hundreds of mortals locked up in the intact houses in Zhuozhou City. There are as few as three people in each room and as many as more than ten people. They obviously don't know what kind of treatment they will face. They were all very panicked. Some held the idols and prayed, some hugged each other and cried, and some sat still.

The moth could not find the guard. All the doors were unlocked and only a paper charm was posted outside. None of the detainees tried to escape.

Mu Xingqiu controlled the moth to turn towards the city wall, but still could not find the whereabouts of the guard. None of the dozens of talisman masters Tong Weibin claimed were there.

A moth rose to the top of the city tower and finally saw the figure of the Talisman Master. He was a man in his thirties, wearing an eight-fold crown on his head. He stood in front of a four-legged square tripod and was using a red pen. Scribbling on the tripod.

The tripod is about one foot high, and its four legs are cast directly on the copper floor of the tower. The surface is engraved with talisman patterns, and the brushwork is vigorous and somewhat ferocious. There are stools of different heights placed around it to accommodate the talisman master.

The eight-fold crown uses a red pen to write new talisman patterns, or it is opened or closed, and the talisman written is as big as a bucket, as if it is carefully crafted, as if it is written in small regular script.

Mu Xingqiu didn't know much about talismans, and he didn't know the scene coming from the moth, so he didn't know what the talisman master was doing specifically. He could only roughly guess that he was blessing the four-legged cauldron. After writing those vermilion talismans, they gradually penetrated The body of the tripod leaves no trace.

After finishing writing one side of the tripod, the talisman master placed the pen and ink on a nearby table, and successively took out three paper talismans with unknown effects. After taking a short rest, he picked up the ink pen again, held the ink tray, and walked to the other side of the tripod. Continue writing symbols.

Another older seventh-level crown talisman master came up and asked, "Mr. Huangfu, how are you?"

The Eightfold Crown put down the ink pen he just raised and said displeasedly: "What else can I do? Isn't this what is written? It takes time to stand upright with the sky and the earth. Just now, there were landslides and earth-shattering, and there were flying rocks falling from the sky. There was no way. Just write."

"Hey, I'm not here to rush you. I just want to tell you that Tong Weibin from Laojunbao hasn't sent back any information for a long time. I'm afraid there may be changes ahead."

"My task is to write talismans. If something happens, you guys will stop me first. What's the use of telling me?" This Huangfu talisman master remained unmoved when he was writing talismans. He usually has a bad temper.

The corners of Qizhongguan's mouth twitched twice, but he didn't dare to attack in person. He said "It's up to you" and turned to leave. Suddenly he reached out and grabbed a moth. He slowly released his palm and watched the moth turn into ashes. He said coldly : “It’s pretty fast, it turns out it’s already here.

Master Huangfu didn't care about this matter. He raised his pen and said: "The blood ink is almost not enough. It must be replenished before dawn tomorrow. Also, don't scare these people to death. What I want is the spirit of 'standing upright'. It's not about fear of death, Mo Yuan's mood will directly affect the effect of the talisman."

"There will be blood and ink." Seventh Layer Crown replied coldly. He had already taken out three talismans in his hand, notifying other companions and looking for the whereabouts of the enemy.

There was a loud bang, and someone obviously broke through the ban outside the city. Master Huangfu's hand holding the pen trembled slightly, and he almost made a useless stroke on Ding, with a angry look on his face, "Zheng Tianyuan, it's your turn to do something." Don't be lazy, I didn't bring you in just to watch the show."

Zheng Tianyuan, the seventh-level crowned talisman master, looked even more gloomy, but he did not dare to make a mistake. Huangfu Talisman Master had a higher status than him and was writing crucial talismans. Even the ninth-level crowned great talisman master did not dare to offend this person. He could only Holding back, the sacrificial talisman flew up and went to fight the intruder.

One moth was destroyed. Mu Xingqiu was observing the situation through the other two moths when he heard a bang. He couldn't see clearly with the moth, so he turned out from behind the tree and looked towards the city with his third eye, only to see the guard. Que and ten of the Holy Talisman Army have flown to the edge of the city, and it looks like they are going to force their way through.

Mu Xingqiu's location was far away from the official road, and Shou Que and others did not see him at all.

Shou Que flew too fast. After breaking through the restriction, he flew some distance before stopping. He was startled first and immediately landed on the ruins on the ground. He turned over and jumped behind the ten people, "You go ask Mu... If Feidian is in the city, please speak politely and tell them that we are not here to cause trouble. "

Fu Lin was surprised again. He thought that the guarded girl was so powerful, but he didn't expect that she was less courageous than him, acted carelessly, and didn't know how to avoid the restrictions.

The weapons and armor of the nine soldiers had been discarded, and only Fu Lin's armor was still there, so he pulled out the Fulu sword from his waist to embolden himself.

Zheng Tianyuan, the seventh-level crown talisman master, flew out of Zhuozhou City and saw such a small group of people. Only the leader held a weapon in his hand, and the others didn't even have armor. As for the guard, he didn't see it at all.

Zheng Tianyuan landed on the half-remaining roof of a house, more than a hundred steps away. He put his hands behind his back and sneered briefly, "The emperor's grandson is here, and Zhuozhou City is not far away to welcome him. Please forgive me. The world is in such chaos, Fu family We don’t have many grandsons left, so you shouldn’t run out.”

"Zheng Tianyuan, I won't talk nonsense to you. Where are the laborers you captured from nearby villages and towns? Release them." Fu Lin saw no traces of the battle, so he guessed that his benefactor might not have arrived yet, or he might be hiding in the dark. appeared, so his name will not be mentioned for the time being.

Shou Que stayed behind without making a sound, holding his breath to resist the fragrance of the soul.

"You really impress me, Fu Lin, let me guess... you feel that you have escaped the fire attack and the earth attack one after another, and you have survived the catastrophe. It seems that you are protected by the gods, and you can inherit the imperial lineage from now on, right?"

"Humanity is facing an unprecedented crisis. The imperial line is not important, nor is the Long Binhui. The people are the most important. You can be loyal to anyone. I hope you will not harm the people." Fu Lin said very sincerely, but he expected There is absolutely no good intention when it comes to the talisman masters recruiting young men and women.

Zheng Tianyuan looked at Fu Lin up and down, "Is there any difference between the blood of the royal family and that of ordinary people?"

"What?"

"We are writing the Talisman of Indomitable Heaven and Earth, and we need a little blood."

"What!" A chill rose from the soles of Fu Lin's feet to the top of his head and lingered for a long time. He was silent for a while before saying, "Is Huangfu Yanghao here?"

"Of course, only he can write the indomitable talisman." Zheng Tianyuan said with a hint of sarcasm.

"Mr. Huangfu is the best talisman writer in the world. He has been frustrated for many years in Longbinhui. It was only at the insistence of his predecessor, Chief Xin, that he was awarded the eighth level crown. I didn't expect... Alas, he would fall into your hands. ”

"You think highly of us. Huangfu Yanghao voluntarily joined and wrote talismans, but no one forced him. Instead, he always forced us to collect fresh ink everywhere. You came at the right time. The blood of the royal family may not be anything special, but it is worth it. Just give it a try, and the fact that you can get all the way here and pass Tong Weibin’s level shows that you have some abilities and are quite courageous—just the person we need most.”

Fu Lin shook his head. He was not worried about his own safety. "I don't believe Mr. Huangfu would do such a thing voluntarily. You must have forced him."

"Idiot, Huangfu Yanghao only has the word 'writing talismans' in his heart. He has written almost all talismans in his life, with the exception of the indomitable talisman. Now that he finally has the opportunity, how can he miss it?"

"Once the talisman of standing tall on the sky and the earth is completed, and the corpse is lying thousands of miles away, don't you want to live too?"

Zheng Tianyuan showed a disdainful smile, "We have our own methods. As for you, raise your sword and let me see if the descendants of Prince Fu still have any spirit of 'standing up to the sky and the earth'?"

Fu Lin did have some courage in his heart, not much, but enough to raise his sword with both hands, ready to fight the opponent's talisman.

Zheng Tianyuan waved his hand and offered up the first paper talisman. When he saw that Fu Lin had passed Tong Weibin's level, he did not dare to underestimate the enemy. What he offered was a three-section divine weapon talisman. The spell was simple, just a flying knife, but it had great power. Extremely, he wanted to arouse Fu Lin's stronger fighting spirit before collecting blood, so he slowed down a little.

Fu Lin gritted his teeth and took it hard. The veteran behind him suddenly reached out and pressed his hand on his back. A strange force entered his meridians. Before he could understand what was going on, he could not help but swing his long sword and hit the flying knife. , not only blocked the attack, but also bounced it back at a faster speed.

Zheng Tianyuan was so shocked that he had no time to counterattack with the sacrifice talisman, so he had to turn over and jump off the roof, looking quite embarrassed.

The flying knife was out of control and hit the city wall, breaking down a large piece of masonry.

Zheng Tianyuan was furious and was about to kill him when a cold voice came from the air, "Better blood is behind, what do you care about with him?"

Zheng Tianyuan replied in a very respectful voice: "Thank you, Grandmaster, for your guidance."

Fu Lin's heart trembled, and he finally understood why these Fu Lu masters were so confident: there was a Taoist master behind them.
