Capture the Jade: Chapter 5
Suddenly, Lin Chengyou said, "Stop."
The steward's wife asked tremblingly, "Is there any other order from the prince?"
"How many people are injured in the house?"
"Four, four, no, plus General Teng's servants, there are five in total."
"Four girls and one boy?"
"Yes Yes."
"All lost their minds?"
The steward's wife had a faint hope in her heart, and stammered: "The four of them are probably all awake, only my second wife has not been saved, the medicine given by the talented son was not enough, and the last one was taken by the Teng family's little wife to feed her. The servant of the family. If the eldest son still has medicine, can you give my second mother another pill? If there is no more, with the wise son of the eldest son, I can only ask for a medical examination for the second mother.”
As soon as he spoke, those strange flower branches emerged from the ground again, twice as many as before, setting off a sea of flowers several feet high.
How could the lady in charge dare to stay any longer, and even rolled and crawled to escape into the house.
Lin Chengyou took off the quiver from his waist and shot an arrow toward the sky.
The golden dysprosium flew into the air and exploded in a flash, turning into a rain of countless arrows, scattered around.
If this thing has spirituality, when it sticks to the evil thing, it will burst out sparks, wandering like a fire dragon, fast like lightning, the flowers and branches can't escape, and they will be burned and screaming for a while.
Mrs. Anguo's smile began to freeze, Lin Chengyou took out another arrow from the quiver, and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, I hurt your children and grandchildren."
Having said that, he acted ruthlessly and shot out an arrow, burning most of the remaining flower vines.
Mrs. Anguo was bound by the iron chain and could not move. Seeing that Lin Chengyou was about to kill him, he suddenly made up his mind and bit the tip of his tongue.
She was so afraid of pain, she frowned as soon as she bit down, snorted constantly, and her body trembled slightly.
Lin Chengyou clicked his tongue: "This is the first time I have seen such a pretentious monster."
He shot the third arrow to the sky and flew up to the side beams.
Mrs. Anguo lowered her eyebrows and closed her eyes, chanting words in her mouth, black blood overflowing from the corners of her mouth, and a little bit of the talisman paper on her mouth penetrated.
The talisman paper was firmly attached, but it was no match for the repeated erosion of blood and water.
Lin Chengyou pretended not to notice, and flew around the courtyard. After the rivets in his hand were nailed to the position one by one, he fell back to the ground and slapped the talisman on Mrs. Anguo's forehead.
Mrs. Anguo's soul was beaten to pieces, and a painful moan burst out from her teeth. The ground stopped moving, and the tumbling nebula returned to its original position.
Lin Chengyou tore off the blood-stained waste talisman and threw it aside: "Your Excellency, please delay the time."
Mrs. Anguo suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes were like poisoned arrows.
Lin Chengyou walked around her for two steps: "My talisman paper is painted with the decree of the Yellow God transcending the rules, using the Jade Emperor's mind, ordinary monsters stained with this talisman paper, even if they don't show their original shape, they will be knocked out of the original body. , you are not only painless, but you can also attract wind and thunder in my formation."
Mrs. Anguo sneered, still full of hostility.
"Obviously he has the ability to reach the sky, but he has been showing his ugliness again and again, either recruiting some shrimp, soldiers and crabs to fight in the future, or using some low-level magic." Lin Chengyou stopped and looked at the monster playfully, "What are you waiting for?"
Mrs. Anguo's eyes flickered, and she couldn't contain her anger.
Lin Chengyou restrained his smile, raised his hand and gave a high five.
A large number of servants poured in from outside, all of them were well-trained. They were startled when they saw the monster, and immediately calmed down.
"Sir."
"Have Jue Saint and Abandoned Wisdom been found?"
The guards approached with the two children: "I'm here. The two little priests are watching the Hu people play by the river."
These are a pair of white and fat twins, wearing the same robes and mans shoes, about ten years old, as round as wooden barrels, one is called "Juesheng" and the other is called "Abandoning Wisdom" (Note 1) .
Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi each held a few strings of fried prawns and kicked their legs in mid-air: "Let us down, we are looking for Senior Brother."
Suddenly glanced at Mrs. An Guogong, and rubbed her eyes in surprise: "This, this?"
"Are you full?" Lin Chengyou smiled.
Juesheng and Qizhi hurriedly hid Zhiming shrimp behind them, and said with a smile, "Senior brother."
Shizun went to travel abroad, and there was no one to watch the past few days. It happened to be the Shangsi Festival. They couldn't help sneaking out.
"Would you like to get some more meat for you?"
"No, no, no need." The two of them shook their heads like a rattle.
"Is it enough to eat a few strings of fried shrimp?"
The two Weiwei nodded: "I'm full, I'm really full."
Lin Chengyou threw the iron chain into Juesheng's hands, and said in a pleasant manner, "Go to work when you're full."
Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi were stunned, is this just revealed?
"This monster is very good. Zhentan wood can last for half an hour at most. One of you guards Kan Palace and Gan Palace, and the other guards Gen Palace and Zhen Palace. You can't run away without distraction."
The two wanted to cry without tears, and they knew that it was not so good.
Humans have five treasures, and each has its own god. If you are possessed by evil spirits, your soul will be shaken out of your body immediately.
If it is an ordinary evil spirit, a talisman can knock it out of the host's body, and those who can use the Wuzang Formation are often no-nonsense monsters.
This formation has extremely high requirements on the skills of the main formation. Although they are only boys who guard the formation, they will not be allowed to eat meat and fish for a year because they will absorb the filthy aura of the monsters in the formation.
one year...
The two of them looked at Lin Chengyou's back with tears in their eyes. Senior brother was so ruthless, it wasn't enough to punish them this time, and even their chances of stealing food in the future were completely cut off.
Lin Chengyou took out an arrow and sighed: "Aggrieved? Or afraid? Do you think your brother is not treating you well enough?"
Juesheng and Qizhi hurriedly raised their chests: "Neither wrong nor afraid! Senior brother treats us the best, senior brother is a genius, as long as senior brother is there, there is no demon that cannot be subdued."
The two wiped the corners of their mouths and ran towards the formation.
Only then did Lin Chengyou regain his composure, he turned his head and asked the guard, "Have you found someone from Duke Anguo's mansion?"
"Although Anguo Gong received the post a few days ago, but he politely declined due to illness, and he hadn't heard of the woman's family coming to the banquet beforehand. I don't know where this 'Anguo Gong's wife' came from, but he has already sent someone quickly. Ma went to inform the government of An Guo."
That's true. Lin Chengyou asked again, "Is Uncle Huang outside?"
"The Duke of Chun'an is still in the front, and all the guests are in a hurry to leave. Fortunately, His Royal Highness is in charge of the overall situation. It is the people from the Duke's Mansion who are here."
"Zhenguo Gongfu?"
"General Duan Xiao of the Duke's Mansion and General Teng's daughter have been engaged since childhood. Tonight, the Duan family happened to be in Ziyun Tower. I heard that something happened to the Teng family, so General Duan and Mrs. Yongan Hou came over. Take care."
Lin Chengyou thought for a while before realizing who General Teng's daughter was. He casually looked at the corridor on the west side, just in time to see Teng Yuyi and Eunuch Wen drag the manservant to the back room together. The so-called last pill was probably already there. into the servant's stomach.
No wonder the lady in charge was screaming at him.
"Move them all to other places, close Lanxia Pavilion, and don't allow anyone to approach."
The servants were stunned for a while, the prince thought that those people were getting in the way, but this place was inherently fierce, and it should have been arranged like this.
"Yes, the villain is going to cook."
Juesheng and Qizhi occupy the fourth palace respectively, biting their fingertips and smearing blood on the altar wood in their hands: "Senior brother, what is the origin of this monster, and how many people have been hurt tonight?"
Lin Chengyou took out the talisman paper and lit it at his fingertips, the flames jumped, illuminating his black eyes like gems.
"It ambushed four women and one man by the river, which coincides with the number of Ziwei. I guess the host spirit in its body is about to dissipate, and it urgently needs to absorb new souls to nourish Wuzang."
Qizhi was a little puzzled: "Senior brother, the original host can't work anymore, and it's okay to change the host, why bother to find five new spirits?"
Lin Chengyou looked at Fu Zhi without saying a word, as if he was lost in thought.
Qizhi and Juesheng glanced at each other, thinking in their hearts, Senior Brother, do you think something is wrong?
Lin Chengyou buried the talisman on the arrowhead, pointed at the iron horse under the eaves of the courtyard without saying a word, then pulled the bowstring and fired four arrows one after another, all of which hit all four directions.
Juesheng slapped his forehead and said, "I know, Master said, the old man said that monsters also love beauty. This lady is so beautiful, monsters must be reluctant to bear this skin. Brother, I guessed right."
Lin Chengyou took the fifth arrow, but still didn't answer.
Mrs. An Guogong watched the arrow approaching, her expression gradually changed from sarcasm to charming, before she could shoot the arrow before her eyes, she actually pulled the iron chain to the ground: "You have given birth to a good appearance, but you have no heart. Man, with such a face, do you really have the heart to do it?"
Unexpectedly, Jue Sheng was pulled to the ground by this force, and immediately wanted to take back the chain, but his strength was no match, and he was dragged out.
Juesheng and Qizhi were shocked: "Senior brother! Isn't the monster trapped by the soul lock? Why do you say that if you break the formation, you will break the formation?"
Mrs. Anguo flew up into the sky, her body circling and climbing like a gust of wind, the iron chains clinking, and layers of circles entangled her from bottom to top.
"With this noodle-like worm, An Neng can trap me?"
She pinched the iron chain made of insects on her body, and with a little force, the iron chain made a creaking insect sound, and then she shook the towel, and the soft snow-white dangling seemed to have turned into a silver snake, going like a shooting star. All of a sudden he was entangled with the Absolute Saint.
"Your apprentice brother should find more little dolls like you. The fat and white one just happened to give me a tooth sacrifice."
This monster moves faster than a gust of wind, and Juesheng was caught off guard and was lifted into the air. In a hurry, he patted the altar wood randomly, but it was useless. Seeing Mrs. An Guo's blood red lips, he waved his fat arm. , and shouted like a pig: "Senior brother!"
A golden light suddenly dazzled in the sky above the courtyard, and Mrs. Anguo stabbed her in the eyes, and the strength in her hand decreased slightly. Jue Sheng took advantage of the situation to cut off the towel with the small sword in his arms, and fell straight to the ground.
He rolled on the spot, crying and crawling back to his original position.
It was too late to arrest people, Mrs. Anguo looked up and saw that the four arrows shot by Lin Chengyou were connected to each other to form a golden net, which covered her head like a curtain.
She groaned inwardly, the headwind swept up, but the net didn't know what method was hidden, and the closer it got, the hotter it became.
In an instant, the black hair on the top of her head was scorched in a small tuft.
She secretly said that it was not good. The skin of the lady she was attached to was delicate and tender, and she should not be destroyed in the slightest.
This kid is even worse than she thought, so she must have made this arrangement in advance after knowing this.
Mrs. An Guogong felt resentment in her heart, her shoulders were short and she was about to fall back to the ground, when she suddenly felt the hot wind blowing from the back of her neck, and Lin Chengyou attacked her on the back.
There was a magic weapon on it, followed by chasing soldiers. Mrs. Anguo couldn't dodge in time, her fingernails suddenly swelled several inches, and she quickly cut her palm.
Blood beads overflowed from her fingers, and instantly dyed the soul lock red.
She chanted the incantation, raised her hand and threw the chain at Lin Chengyou.
This soul lock has no spiritual roots. It takes thousands of years to cultivate into a low-level animal spirit. Although it can lock the souls of most evil spirits, it will also be bewitched when it encounters monsters with high mana. Lin Chengyou knows this very well. What kind of virtue, so he never dared to loosen the chain.
"Iron Chain" was forced to eat the blood of the demon, and it was like falling into a fog. He couldn't tell who the young man behind him was.
Lin Chengyou narrowed his eyes, grabbed the Soul Locker, and scolded, "Beast, see who I am!"
What was pinched was the gate of life, and the lock soul was instantly beaten back to its original shape, conscious of being faceless, turned into a little golden snake, and slid into Lin Chengyou's front placket.
Mrs. An Guogong smiled again and again, took this opportunity to swerve to the left, brushed Lin Chengyou's side, and flew straight down the corridor.
Who would have thought that Lin Chengyou would be able to do two things with one heart, the palm of his hand suddenly came, and he patted her shoulder suddenly: "I want to leave now? I haven't had enough."
Mrs. Anguo was shocked. There was a golden net on her head, and there were no insects on her body to draw on. She had nowhere to avoid, so she had to take this slap.
There is contempt in her heart. Lin Chengyou is young and rich, so there is no Taoist cultivation, but she only knows how to play some tricks with brilliant magic tools.
Lin Chengyou's plan was only due to her previous carelessness. She pretended to rest in the formation for a while, and her skill had recovered by 50 to 60%.
"What can I do with the little trick of carving insects?" She waved her towel, and her body was like water. As soon as Lin Chengyou finished using those useless talismans, she would pull him to her. How could she expect that the palm of the wind had the power of pure Yang, Chopping waves and waves were aggressive and penetrated into the heart of her body at once.
Her eyes were wide open, her body was chaotic like a surging heat wave, her internal strength seemed to have been siphoned off in half, and her internal organs were about to shift.
She forcibly wanted to hold onto her primordial spirit, but it was too late, her body was jolted, and more than half of her primordial spirit was beaten out.
"Even though it's a small trick, it's enough to deal with you." Lin Chengyou sneered.
Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi looked up at the monster, and saw a black shadow cast out of the woman's body, full of white hair, and a short stature.
"It turns out, it turns out that it really looks like this."
"So old, older than Master."
The black shadow became angry and raised his arms to cover his face. Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi were stunned, only to realize that the monster's body actually lacked the right claw.
Earlier, I heard that the guards picked up a broken claw in the forest. It must be this monster. It can be seen that there were experts present at the time, otherwise how could the monster suffer such a big loss.
Juesheng and Qizhi couldn't ignore the surprise, and hurriedly urged Zhentanmu, the main body had been beaten out, and it was a good time to regain the flesh.
The monster was eager to escape back into the host's body, enduring the pain of ripped flesh, forcing a circle of black mist from its body.
The mist was like smoke, and it protected the monster's body in the blink of an eye. Not only that, but it also quickly spread to Lin Chengyou who was behind.
"It's suffocating!" Jue Sheng and Qizhi teachers and students shouted together, "Senior brother be careful!"
This kind of evil spirit released by the old demon who has cultivated for more than a hundred years will greatly damage the vitality.
The monster took this opportunity to take back Mrs. Anguo's body, but at this moment, Lin Chengyou ignited a paper talisman at his fingertips and sealed the Fengchi hole of Mrs. Anguo first.
The host Linggen was sealed, and he could no longer find a way to escape. Missing such a beautiful body, the monster was so angry that he was half dead. He was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and said sternly: "Arrogant child, I will kill you now!"
Lin Chengyou laughed and said, "Is it up to you?" After a somersault, he dragged Mrs. Anguo and dragged him outside the courtyard.
Jue Sage and Abandoned Wisdom were greatly encouraged, and the senior brother was really good at taking back the body of the host, and the next thing was much easier.
The guard at the door just happened to bring a group of palace servants carrying cages. Lin Chengyou threw the lost Mrs. Anguo: "This monster is extremely difficult to deal with. Quickly move the injured to one place."
The monster glared angrily at a pair of slender dark green eyes, it was already mad with hatred, although one claw was missing, the other claw could be stretched freely, its beak made a strange whistling sound, and before Lin Chengyou could turn around, it was vicious. Grab his back.
"Senior brother be careful!"
Lin Chengyou's quiver had completely used up all the Jin Yings, and when he noticed the sound of the wind behind him, he didn't dodge.
Guessing that the monster was approaching, he leaned back towards the sky, spread out his arms and rode the night wind, and slid back into the courtyard leisurely.
The black mist on the monster's body all dissipated, revealing its true colors.
It is not low on the Tao, and has already cultivated a human form. At first glance, it looks no different from an ordinary old woman, except that its neck and arms are covered with brown bark, and the corners of its mouth and forehead are covered with wrinkles, as if it has been eroded by centuries of wind and frost.
When it pounced on Lin Chengyou, the sparse silver hair floated up and down in the evening wind, and accidentally fell a few strands by the ears, making the cheeks sunken even more.
Juesheng and Jizhi said: "Thanks we still guessed that it was a flower demon such as peony or peony, but it turned out to be a tree demon. It must be because he couldn't cultivate a good appearance, so he had to borrow the skin of a beauty."
Lin Chengyou held the knife to block the frame, feeling vaguely that something was wrong in his heart, the sky was different, and the sky above his head was getting darker and deeper.
But for some reason, he always felt that something was wrong. Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Jue Sheng and Abandoned Wisdom, and he said coldly, "Aren't you guys going to guard the formation and wait for the monsters to be full?"
Jue Sage and Abandoned Wisdom did not dare to read more. When the Master taught them this formation, he asked them to put the "Three Precepts" in the first place, that is, "Don't hear, don't ask, and don't be afraid."
In the words of the master, the two of them are Sanqing Daotong with their own golden seals. As long as they guard the Wuzang Formation, no monster with the ability can break through the cage.
Besides, the senior brother had already set up the Panluo Golden Net over the courtyard. This thing is the best way to restrain evil spirits. Unless the monster has been cultivated into a demon, it is impossible to call rescue soldiers in the net.
The monster was halfway up and turned around abruptly, instead of confronting Lin Chengyou head-on, and instead grabbed towards Qizhi, who was closest to it.
Qizhi felt a stinky smell coming towards his face, and he was unavoidably panicked, but when he thought of a senior brother swooping outside, he calmed down again.
Sure enough, before the monster approached, Lin Chengyou had already chased after him. When he dealt with Xie Ning, he had always been unrestricted, and when he shot, he slashed the neck of the monster.
The monster tilted his head to avoid it, and put a claw on his shoulder: "Lin Chengyou, you are so cold-blooded, how do you look like a Taoist?"
"Joke. The Tao is in my heart, the devil is in front of me, and showing mercy to demons like you is ruthless to the world."
"It's obviously a huge 'scourge', so why say these high-sounding words. You and I are different from men and women. I didn't need your skin. For your beauty's sake, I want to pretend to be a young man today. , say hello to you before you start, so that you can die clearly."
Lin Chengyou laughed loudly and said: "As expected of the old locust tree demon at the foot of Liquan Mountain, I have used my cultivation for many years to cultivate thick skin. I have many saddles, but I have never seen one made of thousand-year-old tree bark. Since yours The skin is so thick, peel it off and use it as a saddle for me to play with?"
The monster's eyes flickered, and Lin Chengyou uttered maddening words, even if he saw through it so quickly.
Lin Chengyou brought the blade to him while talking and laughing, Bai Liang's blade light was as cold as his eyes.
The monster did not dare to underestimate these moves, the giant claws shrank back, and fell into the Ligong position in the formation.
The Li Palace is one of the four Yin Palaces. Unlike the Yang Fourth Palace, which is guarded by two little Taoist priests, it is a cage dedicated to depleting the magic power of monsters.
The monster just stood there for a while before feeling dazzled and dazzled, knowing that if he was trapped in it for a long time, his whole body cultivation base would collapse.
It calculated that it was almost time, sat down cross-legged, raised his arm and cut off a finger in the night, and the blood sprayed on the ground, like a red plum blossoming with ten thousand petals.
It endured the severe pain and inserted the severed finger into the courtyard.
Lin Chengyou swept to the top of its head in the air, but before he could make a move, a dark circle of light suddenly appeared around the monster, as if an invisible ice blade slashed into his chest in the air, and immediately shook him far away.
Lin Chengyou's heart trembled, only to feel the blood surging in his chest, he turned a somersault, but still couldn't let go of the strange force, he hurriedly stabbed the ground with a knife and barely stabilized his body.
It seemed that a large amount of ice **** had been injected into the blood, and every pore was extremely cold.
Juesheng and Qizhi couldn't help but open their eyes: "Senior Brother!"
The guards over there escorted a group of wounded people out of the inner room, because they knew that the monster was in the courtyard, so they didn't dare to look at it.
Teng Yuyi was busy taking care of her cousin's cage and fell behind the group.
Suddenly hearing the child's shouting, she turned her head in surprise. Through the interlaced figures, she realized that Lin Chengyou was kneeling on one knee and coughing, as if injured.
The author has something to say: "Abandoning sages and abandoning wisdom": from "The Tao Te Ching", which means abandoning wisdom and ingenuity and returning to simplicity and innocence.
The version that was sent out yesterday for the first time missed a short paragraph at the end, so a small number of readers saw the incomplete version. If you feel that a piece of plot is missing, you can go back to the previous chapter and read it.
