Proud Immortal

One's destiny predicts the future of others.As soon as the sorceress came out, the people in the city knelt down to greet her, ranging from a crying baby in its swaddle to an old man lingering on his bed.

The sorceress held her staff and sat on a high seat: "The reason why you have no harvest is because of evil. If the evil is too strong, the righteousness cannot be overwhelmed, and you have caused dissatisfaction with the heavens by hiding it. This is against you. punish."

The city lord bowed again: "We are guilty and blinded by the evil one. I am willing to sacrifice three years of life, and hope that the witch will show her power and save the lives of the people in my city."

"I'm guilty, I hope the sorceress will show her might and save my city's life." The people said so.

I saw the sorcerer's staff shaking the ground, and heard her twiddling her fingers and chanting incantations that no one knew.The mountains shook in an instant, and the yellow dragon was startled in the sky, surging among the clouds and mist, looming.

"It's Huanglong who has left the customs!" One person shouted and hundreds of people responded, and the people in the city knelt down and clasped their hands together, waiting for the verdict to come.

When Huanglong came out of the pass, he was descending the power of the gods, exorcising ghosts, promoting justice, and punishing evil.

The sorceress held a talisman and said, "The prophecy says, 'When the gardenia blooms, the disaster will come; the red flower will remind you, and the disaster will disappear." You need to bring the person who has the gardenia, and use the sky fire to sacrifice to the Yellow Dragon. Before it turns into ashes, draw its portrait, and then use this evil-suppressing talisman to suppress it immediately."

"Gardenia? There is a person in the city who loves gardenia. But she is kind by nature, not like an evil person."

"Nonsense!" The sorcerer was furious: "The evil spirits are not ordinary evil people, they are good at learning, and they lurk among the people around them."

Even if the witch is old, the appearance of Huanglong is true, so the words of the witch are also true.

"Gardenia Lady" was captured like this, and the five flowers were tied up and thrown into the altar, and burned with sky fire, and every step was carried out according to the instructions of the sorceress.She cried, begged for mercy, and tried to break free from the rope, but was crushed by a group of people, and gradually lost consciousness and turned into ashes.

But after a while, I heard a "rumbling" sound in the distance, and then came with a violent storm.

Everyone worshiped the witch, shouted "Thank God for the gift", and wept bitterly.

They only saw the sorceress saving hundreds of lives, but they didn't know that it was the condensed resentment of "Ms. Gardenia".With fire in the rain, first the sorceress was drenched into ashes, and then the arms and legs of those who pressed themselves into the altar were also drenched.

Seeing this, everyone immediately begged for mercy.

In the end, the people were innocent, and "Ms. Gardenia" shed tears amid everyone's begging for mercy, and the tears turned into nectar, moistening the whole city.The rain is also regular, once every three days during the dry season, and once every ten days during the wet season, so there will be no disasters throughout the year.It's just that when she died, she had too much resentment, and she had become a resentful spirit, so she had no choice but to seal her in the painting and offer candles and incense.

It is said that the world's desire for gods and Buddhas is extremely terrifying, but why not myself?If he hadn't brought that person back by himself, would there not have been a "Battle of the Crane and Dove", and would the two of them have lived their lives separately, saying "polite" when they met by chance?

Originally, he wanted to protect it between his robes, but he didn't want to push him into the abyss.

Thinking up to this point, Nie Ziqing's heart was filled with guilt and guilt, and he felt sad.

Just when he blamed himself secretly, the incense candle on the case was lit at some time, and the strange fragrance appeared again.

This time the taste has also changed, even Nie Ziqing can't tell the difference.I just feel more pain in my head.In a trance, I saw the portrait in front of me move, but it also fell down.

……

According to the location provided by the old woman, Qing Shu headed south all the way and saw the black flag fluttering in the distance.

According to what the old man said, Qingshu circled the black flag three times clockwise.At this moment, a strong wind blew up and rolled up thousands of layers of sand. He covered it with his sleeve and barely opened one eye.

The direction that the black flag pointed was Suzaku in the south, and Qing Shu walked in that direction.But here, there is no such thing as Zhizi Ridge, only the blind old lady just now.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Familiar laughter sounded, and Qing Shu wanted to vomit immediately.

Yu Zhuang appeared from behind the old lady, holding a straw man in his left hand, which looked exactly like the old woman.

"Could it be that……"

Yu Zhuang laughed loudly: "Zhizi Ridge is also called Cannibal Ridge here, it is impossible for your good master to come out!"

"Damn it!" Qing Shu couldn't help saying, raised his sword and started to kill.

I saw that Yu Zhuang was calm and unhurried, dodging every attack calmly.Yu Zhuang was defeated and was defeated: "Impossible, all my ways have been cracked?"

"Hey, young people are indeed young people, they always act impulsively."

The opponent held a strand of hair in his hand, and Qing Shu immediately came to his senses.It turned out that the reason why the old woman insisted on not letting him go was to get the hair, so as to control herself and make him the second "eternal life".

But, it's too late!

"rat!"

"Thank you for the compliment, let you, a naughty puppet, play with me for a while longer. Don't worry, I will let your good master appreciate your remains hahahahahahahahahaha"

Yu Zhuang wrapped his hair around the straw figure, chanted a mantra, and waved a few times with his left hand.But seeing the old woman jumping in the air, the bamboo staff in her hand chopped towards Qingshu's head.

Qing Shu rolled over to avoid the attack, but also saw the old woman's true face.

Eyeless, with a dull expression, disheveled hairstyle, and sparse bangs hanging down the front, as if someone in distress has nowhere to go.That figure was not born short, but his feet were removed and he was led away by this silk thread.

"Bah!" Qing Shu spat, "There really is a dog for every kind of owner, even the taste is decent and disgusting."

I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of this feather building, and I continue to attack with the puppet in my hand with a smile.Qingshu changed the number of moves, and the opponent also changed the moves. The two fought for more than a hundred rounds, neither winning nor losing, and they didn't feel tired.

But the difference between humans and ghosts is that humans have thoughts, but ghosts do not.Seeing that Qingshu's long sword swept across the opponent's bottom, the old woman was really fooled and jumped up, Qingshu seized the opportunity and shaved off the broken hair on her forehead before she blinked.

The old woman's face was stained, which seemed to be something Yu Zhuang hadn't thought of, and he hurriedly pulled the line back to bring it back for repair.But Qingshu was willing to let it go, and cut the talisman paper in the opponent's hand with a single knife. The silk thread on the old woman's body was like a string of a piano, and the bondage was released with a crisp sound.

The thread is broken, the spell is broken.

Seeing the defeat, Yu Building knelt in front of Qingshu and shouted "Forgive me".

"You killed my senior brother and caused Senior Ye to be reviled by thousands of people for thousands of years, and now you put my master to death. You say, I should hate you, should I kill you?"

"I'm guilty, I was wrong." Yu Zhuang crawled to his feet, licked his shoes, and stared at Qingshu like a puppy: "Master, oh, Nie Ziqing is not dead. I just used Liaoxiang stunned him, brother, don't kill me, don't kill me..."

"Go ahead!"

Yu Zhuang walked in front cautiously, his body trembling a bit.It's no wonder, there is no life-saving talisman, and there is a sword around his neck.

the other side.

Wisps of smoke came out from the painting and entered Nie Ziqing's mouth and nose.

Nie Yuan woke up.

"Mo Yuan!"

"Ah... that's the only thing you said when you woke up?"

Nie Ziqing woke up immediately when the sound rang in his ears. When he got up to look, the painting in front of him was swaying by itself, and there was a crisp laugh.

"Thank you girl for saving me."

Zhi Ziniang fiddled with her hair, and a corner of the painting scroll was also curled up.She said in a slightly lazy tone: "I know who you are, so there are conditions for me to save you."

Nie Ziqing said: "As long as it is within the scope of ability, Nie will definitely do his best!"

"You must know who I am. Now your apprentice is coming in with the person you are looking for. I want you to kill him and avenge me, how about it?"

"Girl, punishing others is not the only way to revenge."

Zhi Ziniang seemed a little annoyed, and shouted: "What are you! You know, I am already a ghost. If I hadn't been sealed by this painting, I would have come out to eat your heart and drink your blood. Nie Ziqing , you are very popular with us..."

"you will not."

"How will you know if you don't try!" After saying that, Zhi Ziniang gathered her own evil energy, but stopped when she was punching.

The picture scroll burned by itself, and Zhi Ziniang immediately accepted it.

"This painting can suppress the girl's evil spirit, so you can only save people and not kill people."

Zhi Ziniang softened: "I hated it at first, maybe it's been too long, and even I forgot how to do it myself. They are innocent, and that is the only one who is guilty. Nie Ziqing, I beg you, help me, And help those around you."

Nie Yuan nodded.

-

The two bent their backs and crawled forward in the cave...

"Are you sure this is the right place?"

"Yes."

"It's too small." Qing Shu complained a bit, understanding that the other party couldn't escape freely, and put away the sword: "Don't play tricks!"

……

"Are you sure you brought Master here?"

Qing Shu didn't know how long he had been walking with the person in front of him, he just felt that it was so long, and because of the narrow space here, he bent over and walked all the way, his whole body ached.

"That's right, Zhizi Ridge is actually a hole, and there is a Gardenia lady inside."

"Ms. Zhizi? I've heard of her. It seems that she was burned alive as a sacrificial offering. After death, she turned into a ghost and was sealed with a picture scroll." Qingshu looked at him suspiciously: "Could it be that you are using her?"

"wrong."

After the words fell, Qing Shu Tujue's neck tensed, and he tried to draw his sword to resist, but he couldn't move.Yu Zhuang was waving with his hands, like a woman playing a piano and plucking strings, soft and delicate but yet powerful.

The silk thread appeared again, and the puppet behind also detoured in front of him.The puppet was none other than Yuyi.

"you!"

Before he could finish his words, the silk thread on his body became more tense, so tense that it chopped off his waist.The splattered blood swayed freely, staining the sky red.

!

"how?"

"nothing."

Zhi Ziniang sighed: "The one who should come will not escape after all."

"What are you going to do?"

Nie Yuan left in silence.

Thought of protection, but
