Qi is coming, the body is in good health, and there is still one third of the true energy left.

"Zi Xiao!" Yuan Qingyue wanted to cry when he saw him, and couldn't help but look at the whip wound on the young man's cheek, sniffed, and called him over immediately.

He ground the remaining pearls into powder, "Here's a good thing for you."

He pushed a box of pearl powder in front of his younger brother.

Tang Yi opened the box and saw the pearl powder. At first glance, he thought it was some nourishing tonic. He shook his head, "Brother, I don't want to take medicine anymore."

Yuan Qingyue said angrily, "Are you stupid! Pearl powder can be taken internally or applied externally, and it is cooling in nature, which can suppress your body heat."

Tang Yi couldn't hold back his senior brother, so he finally accepted the pearl powder.

In the evening, Yuan Qingyue rushed back to the Taoist temple overnight to handle official duties.

Tang Yi originally wanted to go out to relax, but with such a face that might make others scream, he had no choice but to look at the moon through the window.

After a while, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival. Seeing Xiao Daochang staring out of the window in a daze, Ji Ming felt very distressed, and couldn't help but move closer to Tang Yi's side.

"Jiming, buy me a mask!" Tang Yi said suddenly.

After a while, he said again: "I'm afraid that going out will scare others."

"Nonsense, it's obviously not scary at all." Ji Ming lovingly touched his forehead and found that the body heat had faded a lot, and the stone in his heart finally fell.

Under the persistent gaze of the young man, Ji Ming really pulled out a mask for him from nowhere, and let him look at it happily for a long time.

Tang Yi always felt a little familiar looking at it.

After a while, he suddenly recalled, "It's time to set off the river lanterns!"

☆、Pan Bamboo Spear

Unexpectedly, Ming still has this mask.

The next day, Tang Yi and Jiming had a discussion, and they both decided to go back to Lianzhou City to find their uncle to get the Hongchen mirror, and the rest of the matter will be discussed later.

Tang Yi did a calculation on a whim, but to his disappointment, he held his breath for a long while and couldn't calculate anything, so he had no choice but to withdraw his hand and do it.

Uncle Xing Ran lived in seclusion in Qiulan Mountain, when the two arrived, they saw him lying on a peach tree eating wine, looking very contented.

He was barefoot, with long hair reaching his waist, his eyes closed tightly, and he had to shake a fan on an obviously not hot day, holding a jar of wine in one hand to drink.

Tang Yi is a cultivator with light steps, Xing Ran moved his ears and still heard clearly, jumped off the peach tree, facing the two without opening his eyes.

"My good nephew, how can you learn from that kid Qingyue, it's a pity that you have to cover up your handsome face." Xing Ran stretched out his hand to remove the mask.

"Master, I'm afraid I'll scare you." Tang Yi's face was full of hesitation.

"Your uncle, I can still be scared. I have seen more ghosts in my life than you have eaten!" Xing Ran said as he took off his mask.

After a while, he silently buckled it back.

Tang Yi: "..."

"It won't be clear for a while, but the injury on the face is not a problem."

"You're quite open-eyed, kid!" Xing Ran muttered, turned his head to look at Jiming with some meaning in his eyes, with a smile on his lips, "Let me take a good look!"

After finishing speaking, he leaned in front of Zhi Ming and walked around him.

Ming also smiled and bowed his hands in a salute neither humble nor overbearing.

"The root is so strange, I think this kid is not bad, nephew, I think it's better to let this little friend be my apprentice." Xing Ran raised his hand to pat Ji Ming on the shoulder.

The man froze when he saw this, but held back and did not move.

"Uncle, stop playing." Tang Yi grabbed his wrist violently and turned it over.

A silver needle was exposed in front of several people, and there was a gleaming silver needle between Xing Ran's index finger and middle finger, and the silver needle was stained with red liquid.

"Oh, I was discovered by you!" Xing Ran stuck out his tongue, turned his hand and put the silver needle into his sleeve robe, squinted his eyes, and smiled faintly.

When Xing Ran stretched out his hand to pat him on the shoulder, he noticed a small movement in his hand early in the morning, but he didn't hide it. He didn't expect Tang Yi to stand up.

"It's not fun," Xing Ran snorted twice, "My boy, you can just wander around my yard and thatched hut first, my nephew and I have something to talk about."

Ji Ming nodded, turned around and walked towards the yard. Xing Ran lived in seclusion but made great efforts in choosing the location, and the house was surrounded by woods.

Qiulan Mountain is surrounded by mountains on all sides, and there is a hanging spring and waterfall more than ten feet high in the mountain, which is very spectacular, but wild animals often appear in the mountains and forests.

But Xing Ran lived in seclusion here without being discovered because of the blessing of the beast.

After Ming went around the yard, he found that the animals and plants around him were well taken care of by the careless Xing Ran, even a few chickens were kept in captivity.

He went around the room again, and saw a few books on the table.

"How can I pretend to be a newcomer in the world of comprehension"

"After I have the ability to predict the future, I dare not open my eyes"

Jiming: "..."

-

"Little Martial Nephew, Kid Qingyue told me that you don't need to think about the ghoul's affairs, you know it must be done by someone with a heart, and you won't show your feet easily."

Tang Yi nodded and said, "I also feel that the other party seems to have been prepared."

That group of people is well-trained and well-trained, and even if they are not idle people, they must be well-informed, otherwise it is easy to miss a step.

When he tracked down Zhou Chengxu and was about to find out the nameless appearance of the man in black from his mouth, the 'coincidence' shooting occurred.

Everything had to make him suspect that the other party had long been observing in the dark.

"I asked your senior brother to go back to the Taoist temple to pass on the message, telling all the disciples to be more careful when going out recently." Xing Ran sighed with his hands behind his back.

I'm afraid that Lianzhou City will not be peaceful soon.

"By the way, your master's world mortal mirror, you put it away and hand it over to your master after he leaves the customs later." The uncle handed the mortal mirror to Tang Yi.

Tang Yi glanced at the mirror in his hand. At first glance, it was indeed not much different from the ordinary bronze mirror on the booth, and even looked shabby upon closer inspection.

Probably because it is put together with other bronze mirrors and no one can pick its level.

When the young man entered the room to look for Ji Ming, he caught a glimpse of the man holding a book and sitting on the top chair reading with great interest, Tang Yi tiptoedly closed the door.

A circular pond was built in the backyard, and Xing Ran raised many koi with unique patterns in it, the scales were shining, he calmed down and admired it for a while.

Not long after, Tang Yi's gaze was attracted by the weapon rack on the side.

The uncle likes to collect some magical weapons, and if he sees one he likes in the auction house, he will spend a lot of money to buy it, but he has never seen him use it once.

Each of the weapons on it had a cold light, and one of the swords was the Sun Moon Sword, which ranked third in the weapons list, and had the title of "killing demons with one sword".

The Sun Moon Sword is well-known in the rivers and lakes. It was the portable sword of the first leader of the Disha God Sect.

Just when Tang Yi couldn't help but sigh with emotion, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a red tassel on the weapon rack. He was slightly taken aback, and he couldn't help picking it up to have a look.

□□It should have a certain age. The originally bright red tassels seemed to be soaked in blood and dyed crimson, and the tip of the spear was sharp and long, majestic.

Tang Yi rubbed the barrel of the gun for a while, when Xing Ran came back, he saw the young man walking forward while staring at a pistol, he caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of his eye.

"Little Martial Nephew, you are a bamboo spear from the very beginning, you have a good eye!"

Tang Yi looked at his uncle in bewilderment, "The bamboo spear is a weapon used by the famous General Huaihua in the Northern Kingdom." Xing Ran replied with a smile.

The young man opened his eyes slightly, but his heart was shocked.

"—Tang Yi!"

Since Ming's body was as tense as a piece of iron, he immediately shouted when he saw Xing Ran's appearance about to continue his narration, and looked at the young man uneasily.

Tang Yi turned his head to look at him suspiciously, before he had time to connect with the dream, he stopped thinking and simply stopped thinking about it for the time being.

Ji Ming said: "Yuan Yuan is looking for you."

A few unexplained laughter rolled out of Xing Ran's throat.

-

Before Tang Yi entered the city, he sent a letter to his family, so he went all the way to the direction of Qiulan Mountain.

After saying goodbye to his uncle and returning to Xiaozhu, the young man bought some tuckahoe cakes and candy figurines from a peddler at the end of the alley, and made a small candy figurine for Jiming.

Tang Yi remembered clearly when the man was staring at Dragon Beard Candy.

After Ming took the young man and handed it over to the little sugar figure, the disfigured rabbit stood crookedly on the bamboo stick, it was really cute, the man's eyes and brows were full of smiles.

After returning home, Song Yang immediately greeted him, Tang Yi took advantage of the opportunity and asked Yuan Yuan if he had something urgent to look for him, Tang Yuan looked at him suspiciously.

Just when he was about to shake his head in denial, he saw Ji Ming clenched his palms into fists and coughed twice against his mouth, Tang Yuan nodded understandingly.

As he said that, Yuan Yuan took out a wooden box, saying that Miss Shi's family had sent a servant from the house the day before yesterday, and opened it to see a row of silver inside.

During the period when he was away, Zhang's mansion also sent someone to send an ancient painting.

It was only then that Tang Yi remembered that it was true, and she remembered the random nonsense he said in front of Mrs. Zhang in the Zhang residence last time.

An ancient painting hangs on one side of the hall wall, depicting landscapes. The young man stood by and looked at it for a moment, only to find it very pretty, and took out the mirror of mortals and stood it on the table.

The surface of the mirror was gray, like a fog that could not go away.

As a drop of blood fell on the mirror, the gray mist seemed to faintly dissipate under the blood, but it still couldn't see anyone.

It seemed that what the uncle said was indeed true, Tang Yi turned around and picked up his saber, intending to go to the courtyard to practice swords, hesitated for a moment, and simply put the Hongchen mirror on the table.

A while ago, because of the soaring zhenqi in his body, he had to meditate many times to refine the chaotic zhenqi in his body, and only part of the zhenqi remained unrefined.

As soon as he came out of the yard, he bumped into Ziming head-on. As soon as the man raised his eyelids, he saw the world mirror on the table, and all the fog on the mirror dissipated.

The top is like a lake with ripples. If you look carefully, it is the back of Tang Yi holding the Tongtian Sword when he walked away. The scene in the blink of an eye changes.

The young man was wearing a military uniform, holding a bamboo pan in his hand.

Slightly stunned, since he was about to see what happened, he saw that the person in the mirror had turned into a green shirt and long robe, with a sword in one hand and a gold and silver magic weapon in the other.

Then, the image in the mirror of mortals disappeared all of a sudden.

Ji Ming looked at the people in the courtyard and his eyes moved slightly.

-

Every move of the young man was flowing like clouds and flowing water. Song Yang felt his blood boil all over after watching it for a while, so he couldn't help but leaned forward and clapped his hands.

"My lord, I haven't seen you for a few days and your swordsmanship has improved a lot."

Tang Yi watched him gesturing with his hands, and couldn't help laughing, probably because of the refinement of true energy in his body, he felt that his skill had improved by about [-]%.

Judging from the current situation, the distance from Ascension is only a little bit of merit.

Song Yang stared at his mask in a daze. He didn't expect that the adult would also start to cover his face with the mask to hide his appearance, just like the hero in the book.

He suddenly remembered something, "My lord, there is Xu's whereabouts."

"Are you caught by the Yamen's arrest?" Tang Yi frowned upon hearing this.

If Song Yang didn't mention this matter, he might have forgotten about Wang Jiagui and Xu Rao long ago, after all, the Shi family is still in charge.

Song Yang shook his head.

"The six detectives sent came back to report that they went to Xu's natal family's Binzhou mountain road and found a body, which was confirmed to be Xu's own."

Song Yang continued: "It is said that the carriage accidentally fell off the cliff on the mountain road."

Tang Yi couldn't help but let out a long sigh. It's unknown if he fell off the cliff by accident, or if Mrs. Xu was killed by impermanence. To put it bluntly, it was the reincarnation of heaven.

Tang Yuan suddenly ran over panting with a script book.

"—My lord, Miss Rong is asking to see you outside the door!"

☆, spider pattern

Tang Yi was taken aback for a moment, then quickly followed Yuan Yuan to meet the guests.

The woman with her bun and hairpin was standing in front of the door, waiting hesitantly, her brows frowning helplessly on her oval face, he hurriedly invited people into the main hall as a guest.

After Ming casually poured a cup of tea and handed it to her, the two of them gradually understood what happened from the woman's narration, and it turned out that it was a ghost again.

The woman who came to visit him was named Rong Jiao, who came from a famous family. Just five days ago, she was married in a red dress, and the man was a young man who was awarded a Jinshi.

On the night of the big wedding with the din of gongs and drums, the hall was full of guests, and when the man came back and lay on the bed, he felt pain all over his body, and an unknown totem grew on his chest.

Lang Junqi Chengyi let Rongjiao feel relieved for the time being, and finally, under Jiaojiao's constant questioning, he finally revealed the truth, saying that he was haunted by a female ghost recently.

Rongjiao found it incredible when she heard about it, and she also learned that Tang Yi was a famous Taoist priest in the town. He came to visit, but was told by Xiao Tong that he was not at home.

Had to wait until today to visit.

Tang Yi nodded, "I'll go with you after I get the magic weapon."

It is not uncommon for people to be entangled by demons and monsters, but what makes Tang Yi suspicious is the 'totem' that Rong Jiao just mentioned, it is unheard of to grow a totem.

Rong Jiao said softly: "Thank you, Daoist Tang."

As Chen approached, the couple had only been married for a few days, and all the decorations in the courtyard were still dominated by festive red, and the young man only felt that the sway made his eyes hurt.

Tang Yi was led down to the main room by Rong Jiao. Along the way, he paid attention to the people, flowers and plants in the yard, and there were all maids and servants in the yard.

"Lang Jun." Rong Jiao called out to the fallen bed curtain.

The person on the bed responded slightly when he heard the words, his voice was extremely low, and since he heard the man's painful exhalation clearly and keenly, he turned his head and gave Tang Yi a wink.

Tang Yi hastily stepped forward to check, and lifted the curtain of the bed. He found that the person on the bed was pale and dying, as if he had suffered great torture.

Carefully pulling back the man's skirt, the young man saw a row of thin black lines covering Qi Chengyi's chest, extending from the heart.

It looked like a half-woven spider web, very penetrating.

The two looked at each other, both surprised.

Rong Jiao stood aside and quietly wiped away her tears, while Ji Ming proposed to go around the courtyard and investigate, maybe there might be some clues.

It's just that there is nothing to gain after going around, the yang energy is abundant, the servants and maidservants in the house are all in good health, and there is no sign of ghosts staying.

Blinking his eyes, Tang Yi felt very confused, Ji Ming had to ask Rong Jiao to explain the details of the wedding in detail, and the three of them sat on the stone bench in the courtyard.

"I asked about Mr. Lang at that time, but he excused and said nothing happened."

Rong Jiao carefully recalled the details, and determined that after Qi Chengyi had a drink with her in the bridal chamber, he suddenly began to feel chest tightness and shortness of breath.

And when Rong Jiao touched him, he cried out in pain, and his head was still sweating.

Still after careful questioning, I learned from him that a terrifying female ghost coveted my husband's heroic appearance for a long time, dreaming every night, and harming him only when she couldn't love her.

Zhiming went back to his room and felt his pulse, but found nothing abnormal.

When Rong Jiao mentioned him, she frowned, she didn't seem to be fake, and she touched Qi Chengyi's cheek to prove it, and he immediately looked like he was being stabbed.

Tang Yi lifted the man's skirt and took a look. His sharp eyes found a black line starting to spread from the heart to the collarbone. He couldn't help but turn pale with shock.

If it goes on like this, I'm afraid it will spread to the whole body within a period of time.

It's just that the current situation is too weird, and it's hard for the two of them to come to a conclusion for a while.

The night before, the two of them stayed in the courtyard, and since they didn't close their eyes all night but didn't even see a ghost, they could only attack Qi Chengyi.

See what valuable clues you can get from him.

-

The next day, Qi Chengyi leaned his back against the cushion and touched his nose, indicating that if he didn't touch Rongjiao's body, he wouldn't be in severe pain, but the black line kept spreading.

When he spoke, he glanced down intentionally or unintentionally, his face was pale,

Tang Yi asked: "Since when did you discover that you have spider veins on your body?"

The young man began to suspect that the spider veins had already existed. Due to the big marriage, Qi Chengyi was probably afraid that it would cause bad things if he said it, so he concealed it until after the marriage.

Qi Chengyi said: "On the night of the big wedding."

"I heard that Mr. Qi is haunted by a female ghost, when does she usually come?"

Since Ming Ming is most concerned about the source, female ghosts are haunting her. It sounds dangerous, but so far it is his one-sided story. He still needs to catch someone and ask him clearly.

Hearing this, Qi Chengyi's back stiffened suddenly, a smile slowly appeared on his bloodless face, and he said, "She probably won't come again."

"As long as she promises to come to see me, you can help me get rid of her."

The expression on the man's face was very unnatural, Tang Yi and Ji Ming could of course see it at a glance, thanked him, and tacitly did not continue to ask him.

"Young Master Qi is lying." As soon as he stepped out of the door, he said with certainty.

Qi Chengyi was obviously not good at lying, Tang Yi asked him, since Ming had been observing the subtle expressions of the man, he found that the man's eyes were always wandering.

Qi Chengyi's eyes fell on the top of the quilt, and he glanced down, but Tang Yi kept looking at him openly, which made him even more guilty.

There are two possibilities for Mr. Qi's lying. One is that the female ghost he mentioned does not exist from the beginning to the end, and the other is that he is hiding something.

Tang Yi lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, then said, "What is the totem on his body?"

The black line on Qi Chengyi's body is the key point, printed on the skin, it seems to have vitality after Rong Jiao's touch, and it continues to extend to other parts.

"I don't know." Ming Ming narrowed his eyes and lowered his eyebrows and shook his head. The spider pattern totem on Mr. Qi's body can be said to be very rare, and he has never seen it in his life.

After a while, Rong Jiao ran over anxiously, and told Tang Yi that the spider veins on Qi Chengyi's body were becoming more and more uncontrollable, and asked him to rejuvenate and save Lang Jun.

With a twitch of his eyelids, Tang Yi immediately rushed to the main room, and saw Qi Chengyi on the bed with his eyes slightly closed, his clothes wide open, breathing weakly and in a low voice.

Ji Ming's gaze fell on his chest, and the spider veins gradually extended to the navel like an open spider web, ready to capture the prey at any time.

The maid who wiped his body screamed when she saw it, and immediately dropped the sweat towel and ran out in shock and fear, her legs trembling in fright.

Qi Chengyi is like a fish out of the water at this moment.

Tang Yi saw that his inhalation and exhalation were very unstable, so he stretched out his hand and quickly touched a few acupuncture points all over his body to protect his heart veins, and then tried to break open the spider pattern totem.

Seeing this, Rong Jiao rubbed her hands and stamped her feet, and asked, "Tang Daoist, can we still save him?"

"It's hard to say." Tang Yi was unsure.

After returning to the room, Ji Ming suddenly said: "I'll go to Tianming Building."

Tianming Building is the largest library in Fengdu. It is said that there are many rare books in the building that cannot be bought at high prices in Yangjian. It is possible to find records of totems.

The young man grabbed his arm, "Brother Jiming, I'll go with you."

"Little Daoist, don't force yourself."

The ghost town Feng is a place of severe cold and dead energy. Tang Yi's body has been in trouble for a while due to the surge of true energy recently, and there are still fresh wounds on his face that have not healed.

Of course, Zhiming hoped that he would stay in the courtyard and recuperate well.

"No problem." The young man's eyes were firm.

The gates of Fengdu will only be opened at night, and the four directions correspond to the four gates of the ghost city, waiting for the ghosts who come to reincarnate.

When night fell, Tang Yi and Jiming sneaked out of the house wearing veiled hats.

It was not much different from what the young man had imagined. The building was huge, with thousands of books neatly placed on the bookcases, making people wonder what to do with them.

"Well, I'll look to the left, and you to the right." Seeing this, Ji Ming proposed.

"Okay." Tang Yi immediately nodded in response.

It should be faster for the two to search separately. Stepping on the wooden ladder, the young man decided to start from the medical books and the forbidden books of witchcraft, and the secret of the totem may be among them.

It's just that he doesn't know anything about medical skills, so he has to look through the accompanying paintings.

The art of witchcraft to subdue victory is even more complicated. Ancient books record that subduing victory was a kind of witchcraft in Yunjiang in ancient times, but there are very few people who are proficient in witchcraft.

Witch Gu Yasheng achieves his goal by laying down Gu, and the Gu insects are parasitic, but today Tang Yi probed his body with true energy, and found no trace of living things.

The only living things are circles of spider pattern totems.

I just read several medical books and ancient books but found nothing.

There are so many books in Tianming Building, Tang Yi read countless books on the wooden ladder, his head was dizzy, and he accidentally knocked one off with his elbow.

He immediately turned down the wooden ladder to pick up the book on the ground. The pages of the book were open, and he stayed on the page introducing the totem. He took a closer look and found that it was exactly the same as the spider pattern totem.

On the pages of the book, there are clusters of spider veins on the man's chest, entangled layer by layer, and finally the black thread stretches to completely cover his body, which is exactly the same as Qi Chengyi.

Tang Yi immediately glanced at the title page of the book. The page was yellowed, but he could see the vague words of "Marriage Records in the Red Dust", which made his restless heart beat faster and faster.

Feeling restless, the young man turned back and read the first few pages carefully from beginning to end. His pupils suddenly widened in an instant.

The Tianming Building was eerily quiet for a moment, as silent as dead ashes. Tang Yi frowned while reading the contents of the book, making his hands and feet feel cold.

A coldness surged up like a frenzy, and then an uncontrollable anger gradually rose from his heart, and the young man's complexion turned extremely pale.

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Tang Yi and walked forward. After seeing the young man calm down after a while, he handed him the ancient book in his hand.

Once you read it once, you will understand everything.

In this way, everything makes sense, the spider pattern totem, and Qi Chengyi's guilty eyes when facing the two, all the answers are in the book.
