The salted fish attack made the master carry the cub

"I saw the silhouette. It shouldn't be the soul that escaped from the Nether Mansion of the Styx River."

Immortal Ji Ce took the magic mirror in his hand, walked up and down the stage several times, and finally came to such a conclusion.

The young man was called suddenly, and he came back to his senses, and asked again: "Then tell me, what is that thing?"

Xianjun Ji Ce explained: "If the soul will definitely not be able to escape the mirror in my hand, you can think in another direction and see if you can find any clues."

"How to change?" The boy frowned slightly, feeling a little annoyed.

"If it's not a ghost, it can only be a demon, but this thing doesn't have a demonic aura, which means that its Taoism is not high. It should be formed just after cultivation, or it has not been formed at all."

He said again: "You said that he wanted to drink human blood, and also wanted to... kill your junior brother. Most likely he wanted to use the energy in your body to strengthen his own ability."

Qi Wushen thought for a moment, and felt that what he said was reasonable.The reason why he attacked Ji Sheng first, but did not move the master, must be that he realized that Zong Wu's cultivation level was higher and it was difficult to control him.

only……

"How to explain the poison?" Qi Wushen asked.

Xianjun Ji Ce shook his head: "It may be that the body of that thing is poisonous, you can think about what poisonous things are in this mansion, it may become a spirit, and it can also manipulate the puppet thread."

The boy held his chin in thought for a moment, but he didn't find any suspicious clues.

He was planning to have a few more conversations with this Immortal Ji Ce, but the other party couldn't hold back anymore.

Immortal Ji Ce made a shallow bow to several people, and said: "Since there are no resentful ghosts and ghosts here for the time being, then I will leave first."

Although his tone was still calm, Qi Wushen felt a suppressed urgency.

The first acquaintance with this green-clothed Wuguan fairy, he felt that the other party was as polite and gentle as jade.But now, his judgment is slightly different from before.

The gentleness and courtesy of this fairy seems to only stay in matters related to himself, within the scope of his duties. As for those outside the scope, it seems hard to say.

Qi Wushen originally wanted to find out what he had forgotten during the tribulation through Ji Ce Xianjun, but according to the current posture, it seems that the other party will not make an exception to help him.

What's more... He looked left and right, but he didn't think it was the best time to mention this matter.

Having said so much, the young man didn't want to say much, so he bowed and said: "Then Xianjun, let's go, but..."

The subject changed, and he said again: "However, I still have a merciless request."

Immortal Ji Ce frowned slightly, he had planned to leave, but the young man's conversation suddenly changed, and there were many changes, so he had to listen to it.

"Tell me." There was suppressed displeasure in his brows.

Qi Wushen made another salute, which was a more exaggerated and deeper salute than just now, it was a rare etiquette between him and Zong Wu.

The young man's posture was so low that Immortal Wuguan felt that something was wrong, but since then, there is no reason to stop talking.

I only heard the young man continue: "Before you leave, I implore the lord Xianjun, as a convenience, lend me some evening fragrance from the three of my master and apprentice, and I will return it ten times and a hundred times in the future."

Xiyingxiang is the only tool to connect with the immortals in the lower realm and with Jiuchongtian, its importance is self-evident.There are many processes to go down to earth at one time, and the review is troublesome, so this incense can be regarded as an important "strategic resource" with one less stick.

Immortal Ji Ce was naturally unwilling to give such an important thing, and he was about to refuse when the young man in front of him spoke more formally.

"During this time in the lower realms, the Xiyingxiang brought by my master and apprentice was damaged by water, and the house is not peaceful right now. I'm afraid that we will not be able to contact the Jiuchongtian in critical situations."

The young man's words not only showed that a few of them did not take the initiative to fall into the current situation, but also just rightly showed the difficulty of the situation.Hearing this, if he refuses again, it will appear a bit unreasonable.

"That's fine, but I don't have much on me." Lu Shuanghua reluctantly took out three sticks, took one back and handed it out.

After bidding farewell to Immortal Ji Ce, Qi Wushen took two sticks of Xiyingxiang and was about to put them away when Ji Sheng grabbed them.

"Hey, Qi Wushen, are you crazy? Who do you want to contact for this incense?"

They went down to earth privately, if they were discovered by others, it would be tantamount to self-destruct.

Qi Wushen shook his head: "Don't worry." But he didn't say much.

He thought of the bloody characters on the giant tree, and the spiritual power of the master that didn't work when it failed, and something seemed to be decided in his heart.

The young man looked up at the sky. Originally there were dark clouds billowing above his head, but now the clouds were a bit thicker than before, and the black clouds overwhelmed the house with heavy rain pouring down at any time.

He thought for a moment, and said: "There is not much time, and it will soon be night, and the yin energy will increase, and the evil spirit will come out to make trouble in all likelihood, why don't we search separately now, to find the body of the thing, and see if we can find it in the sky?" If you find it before the black, then you will have the upper hand.”

"En." Zong Wu gave a light "En" to express his approval of this method.

He paused for a moment, then said: "Then let's begin."

Qi Wu took a deep breath and summed up the current situation.

He said: "In my opinion, that thing is yin and poisonous. There are many trees in this house, and they grow wildly everywhere. It's better to start with the trees."

He took out the stack of yellow talismans he found in the quiet room before, put them in front of several people, and said, "Just write an exorcism talisman and stick it on the suspicious object. If it is a demon body, the talisman will definitely respond."

Ji Sheng nodded, and the three of them found a flat place to draw symbols.

They have used the yellow talismans sparingly during this time, even so, they still don't have ten talismans in their hands.

Just in case, only three pictures were drawn at first, and then the three of them searched separately, but failed.

The young man drew three more, and searched again, but still failed.

Soon there were only two spells left in their hands, which meant that they didn't have many chances, so they gathered back to the original place for a brief discussion.

The young man said: "I tried it on the stage, and there is no problem."

His initial thought was very simple, he thought that the thing could control the puppet thread, and it was wood, maybe a certain puppet became a spirit.

The boy checked all the puppets there, most of them were corrupted and incomplete, and they didn't look like anything capable of becoming a spirit. The only one that was well preserved, he tested it with a spell, was also safe.

After confirming that there was no problem with the puppet, the boy turned his attention to the backboard and the ground of the stage, this time he was more cautious than before.First, I went to the "chicken farm" in front of the meditation room and caught a chicken, removed half of the chicken's feathers, and scratched the chicken with a wooden board to test the poison.

The floor and the backboard were fine, but when the roof was measured, the scratches turned black and discolored, just like Ji Sheng's injured palm.

The young man's eyes lit up, he just felt that he had found the body of the thing, and immediately put a spell on it, but the same was fruitless.

After Qi Wushen finished talking about his discovery, Ji Sheng also talked about his discovery. The main object of his experiment was the vegetation in the house, especially the shade-loving vegetation.

Based on the experience of his friends, Ji Sheng first tested the toxicity, and then tested it with a spell, and finally locked on the only two "poison arrow trees" in the house.However, each of them cut off a branch to test, but it was fruitless.

"No, this look is like looking for a needle in a haystack." The young man frowned and asked Zong Wu, "Master, what did you find?"

Zong Wu took out the two talismans in his hand, but did not use them. He opened his thin lips lightly and said two words: "Furniture."

The boy suddenly realized: "You mean, that thing might be made of furniture?"

Zong Wu nodded, pointed to the carved beams and painted buildings above his head, and the seven-star bracket, and said: "Not only that, but the entire building of this house is also possible."

Qi Wushen: "..." The narrowed area was finally expanded again.

They are not looking for a needle in a haystack, but looking for a tree in a deep house.

"Then let's... look for it again?" The young man doubted, perhaps because he was more familiar with the house than others, which made him feel hopeless.

Zong Wu still shook his head: "It can be smaller."

He pointed to the piece of "poisoned arrow wood" that Ji Sheng picked up before, and said, "Since the poisoning reaction is correct, the body of the thing should also be this wood."

The boy nodded, and instantly understood the reason why that thing could manipulate the puppet thread.

It should be that the Chengjing object and the ceiling of the stage were originally born of the same tree, and they have the same effect because of the same origin.

But, the problem came again.

"But, who would use this poisonous wood to make furniture? If a child accidentally touches this furniture, wouldn't it be easy to die?"

Ji Sheng thought of the little ghost in the house, suddenly covered his mouth, and said: "Fuck, that child died like this, right?"

Qi Wushen: "..."

He paused for a moment: "Not really, but... I seem to have guessed where the body of that thing is."

"Huh? Where?"

-

Half an hour later, several people stood in front of an inconspicuous storage room in the house.

As dusk approached, a strong wind blew up, and the draft howled through the old house. The moment the door was opened, several people were choked by the dust blown by the wind.

"Cough, cough." Zong Wu was choked by the dust and coughed several times.Because of the severe cough, his whole body was trembling slightly.Coupled with the running up and down before, it made him feel very uncomfortable, and even broke out a burst of retching.

"Master, are you alright..." The young man reached out to help, but Zong Wu waved him away.

"Don't worry about me, it's getting dark, go find it first."

Qi Wushen: "..."

He turned and left, following the warehouse.

When he entered the room, Ji Sheng had a headache facing the messy things in the room, he didn't know where to start, when he saw Qi Wushen he waved his hand instantly, and said: "Brother, how do you know there is a storage room here?"

He has been groping around in the house for so long, but he didn't know there was such a place, and he couldn't figure it out, Qi Wushen lay on the hammock every day, how could he seem to know the situation in the house well.

"En." Qi Wushen didn't speak, his eyes darkened.

Ji Sheng gave a soft "cut", thinking that he was pretending to be smart, and asked: "There are so many plaques in this room, how do I know which one to look for?"

From front to back on the ground, there were more than ten plaques lined up one by one. Ji Sheng casually turned one over and saw the four big characters "Qingfenglangyue" written on it, and put it down again. A piece of gray.

He felt that if the plaque was not found after such a search, he might have choked to death himself first.

"Cough, cough, I'll find something to cover my mouth and nose." Ji Sheng said so, raised his legs and walked out, but was stopped by Qi Wushen.

"No need." He pointed to the lump in front of him and said, "Find one... Forget it, you don't need to look through it for this kind of position, the plaque looks very special, both in shape and appearance, it is bigger than ordinary plaques, you You can recognize it just by looking at it.”

Ji Sheng was a little surprised and asked back: "How do you know so clearly? Did the plaque give you a dream?"

The boy shook his head, hesitated to speak, and sighed: "You will know the reason after looking at the plaque."

He said again: "Master is not feeling well, I will go out to take care of Master, you... Come on."

Ji Sheng felt inexplicably that his friend was in a bad mood, but he couldn't find the reason. He just thought that he was looking at the approaching night, but he couldn't find any clues. If he was in a hurry, he would wave his hands and say, "Go and take care of your lord." Well, just have me here."

"Well, then you need to call me."

-

When the boy went out again, Zong Wu squatted on the ground in pain, his delicate face was pulled together, making people feel distressed instead of hideous.

Why does Master always fail to take care of himself?

The young man frowned slightly, walked up from behind, and hugged Zong Wu.

"You, why are you here?" Zong Wu reluctantly got up, but his body couldn't stop shaking in the young man's arms.The feeling of being restrained is not very comfortable, in addition to being suppressed, it also makes people feel a little ashamed.

"Cough cough."

Qi Wushen didn't answer, the next second, Zong Wu's face was pale, he covered his mouth and coughed lightly, and what he coughed was a mouthful of blood.

"Master, what's going on?" The young man was in a hurry, he didn't care that the person in his arms wanted to break free, instead he hugged him more and more tightly, and even grabbed the bloody hand.

"Let go." The person who was weak from coughing suddenly burst out of his strength for some reason, threw the boy away, and walked to the side.

However, before taking a few steps, his body began to tremble again, and he shrank and bowed his waist.

"Master, what's the matter?" The young man came up again, hugging Zong Wu from behind, his eyebrows were tightly frowned, and his every expression showed distress and entanglement.

Master's poor health is not a matter of a day or two, but Zong Wu has never shown the current weakness, this is a state that even makes it difficult to stand up.

It felt like Master was just a phantom that would disappear in the wind and snow at any moment.

"Master, is the child making trouble again?"

Shizun is very thin, very thin, when the two of them made love, he even felt pain from being hit by Shizun's bones, but at that time, although he felt that Shizun was so thin, he never felt distressed.

And now...

For the first time, the young man felt that the master needed someone to take care of him and love him. He wanted to protect the master, and he really wanted to.

"Master, can I carry you back to your room?" The young man said, he stretched out his hand to hug Zongwu's knee, thinking that he would hug him horizontally like this.

Unexpectedly, before his hand touched Zong Wu's body, he was pushed away.

Zong Wu clutched his chest and swayed his body. His steps were unsteady, and he swayed from side to side with a sick look.

For some reason, Qi Wushen's incomprehensible emotions appeared on his face, and the whole person seemed to be in a state of loss of control.

"If you still remember, I am a teacher and you are an apprentice, so leave me alone."

"Let go of me, get out of here, now immediately!"

Those eyes that were usually full of frost and snow were burning with anger like never before.

The boy was stunned.

Is Master angry?

But...how could Master be angry?

On the other side, Zong Wu stood on the spot with support.

The few words he yelled almost exhausted all his strength, he held his chest, feeling something seemed out of control.

Ever since the onset of love poisoning and he and his little apprentice had skin-to-skin contact again, everything seemed to be unchangeable. First, the inexplicable spiritual power could not be used, and then the emotions that had been suppressed all the year round began to slowly reveal, and now... ...he was strangely angry.

His heart, which has been peaceful all the year round because of practicing the ruthless way, has never been so turbulent and difficult to calm down as it is now.

When he said those words, he obviously didn't think that way in his heart, but those words blurted out uncontrollably.

And he could only listen to those words, and see the little apprentice's ignorant eyes and slightly disappointed look.

The ball of light next to his ear was still chattering and intensifying, making it so loud that he couldn't think.

"Are you kidding me, Zong Wu, do you think he really wants to protect you? He just wants to possess you. He holds you in his hand as a toy, and takes it out whenever he wants to use it." use."

"Do you think he is really as obedient as he appears on the surface? Let me tell you, it's all fake, he pretended. If he was really as obedient as you imagined, he would have let you go. Obediently left, instead of clinging to you like now."

"What a shitty apprentice, you're just a wolf who covets your master. You're also cheap, so reject him if you have the guts, what kind of gesture do you want to refuse? Who are you lying to? Or are you deliberately trying to attract him like this? You like being forced by him."

No, no...

He really wanted to resist, but under that kind of mental oppression, he couldn't even say a word.

The severe pain in his mind and body occupied all his consciousness, and it was extremely difficult to even move slightly.

Just then, "Ah—"

In the howling wind, a scream broke the silence in the air.

"Chicken, what's the matter with you?" The boy didn't care about thinking, and trotted towards the storage room.

The chaotic thoughts in my mind were instantly emptied, and the messy thoughts, together with the chatter of the ball of light, faded away like a tide.

Zong Wu stood still, and followed closely after a moment.
