My ability pool is superior to others

Chapter 137 Sneak Attack
"Master, please save my man..."

The disheveled peasant woman was crying and tugging at the old man's clothes, looking quite panic-stricken.

Seeing that the man who had been possessed by the fox spirit was still unconscious, a few kind-hearted villagers felt it was not a good idea to leave him lying naked on the ground.

The man was covered with a layer of straw raincoat and carried into the house using a hard door panel that was taken from somewhere.

The old man had no choice but to comfort the peasant woman first.

Lu Bai, on the other hand, said nothing. He moved a small stool and sat nearby. He was a little curious about how these incense sticks could ward off evil spirits.

The village elder nearby was obviously restless and wanted to stay away from Lu Bai, but was afraid that this would anger the other party.

He still believed that Lu Bai was some kind of immortal, and even suspected that all these troubles were caused by Lu Bai.

Soon, the master's three apprentices returned one after another.

They burned incense and walked around the village, but found no trace of the fox fairy. For some reason, the shape of the incense was a bit messy, making it difficult to determine its exact location.

After reporting the news to the old man, he was silent for a moment, then turned to the village elder and said, "Please invite all the villagers to come out."

Since it was still in the village, in his opinion, the fox spirit must have possessed a villager.

The village elder had no objection, he was even happy to be able to stay away from Lu Bai for a while.

Watching the village elder leave, the old man turned to look at Lu Bai: "What do you think about this matter, Master Lu?"

Lu Bai smiled and waved his hands: "I don't know anything, you can do it yourself."

The old man nodded.

In his opinion, as long as this mysterious young man does not cause trouble, he is confident of exorcising the evil spirit.

Indeed, the ability to possess a body means that this Humen immortal has reached the level of an incense-head-top immortal, or an altar immortal.

But he had dealt with immortals of this level before during his years as an incense burner, so he thought nothing unexpected would happen.

Probably in order to quell the unrest in the village as quickly as possible, the village elders were quite efficient.

Without making everyone wait too long, the villagers gathered in the open space one after another.

There are less than a hundred households in the entire Liujia Village, and the total number of villagers is no more than a few hundred, so it does not seem crowded when they gather together.

It was just that the villagers were talking to each other, making the scene look chaotic.

The old man was not surprised at all. He walked to the front, bowed to the villagers, and said loudly: "Thank you for your hard work, fellow villagers. I hope you can wait for a moment."

The discussion became quieter, and I guess everyone must know this incense master.

The old man walked around the crowd and then came to the front of the crowd.

Walking and lighting incense.

"My name is Tao Gui, and I work as an incense runner under Master Bai Shisi. I wonder which immortal is here. Can he come out and have some fun with me?"

The inexplicably solemn atmosphere made the crowd completely quiet.

"..."

The old man frowned slightly.

"No matter who you are from, you are a little ignorant."

The crowd remained quiet.

The village elder silently took two steps back, vaguely realizing that this matter might not be resolved peacefully.

"No matter where you moved from or where you lived originally, you can't harm anyone, right?"

After the old man finished speaking, he kept silent.

Persuading him three times is the best you can do.

If you still don't give up, then you are an evil spirit.

The old man took out four incense sticks and lit them at the same time.

As four wisps of green smoke rose, the old man bowed four times in a certain direction. Lu Bai clearly saw that the old man's originally bright eyes gradually became a little lost.

Then, the old man yawned for no apparent reason and began to hum a song.

Lu Bai didn't understand, but was greatly shocked. He simply pulled the well-behaved apprentice and asked, "What are you doing?"

When Liu Sheng heard Lu Bai's question, he hesitated for a moment, but still explained, "Looking at incense to cure diseases."

Lu Bai asked again: "What's the explanation?"

Liu Sheng looked embarrassed. Logically speaking, he should not disclose such inside information. They only knew these tricks after being apprentices for several years.

But thinking of the old man's attitude towards Lu Bai, although he was a little hesitant, he still lowered his voice to explain...

There are many ways to burn incense, the two most common ones are ding and qiao.

The process of burning incense is like being in a trance, as if possessed by the altar spirit, and the incense head becomes confused and dumb, which is generally called curing illness by burning incense.

However, looking at incense is just the opposite. You don’t need to be obsessed with it, you just need to enter a state of “divine enlightenment”.

That is, the altar spirit is not possessed, and the incense head is awake throughout the whole process, and knows what is wrong. This is called curing illness by looking at incense.

There is nothing much to say about the method of burning incense. Its strength depends only on the spiritual power of the immortal being worshipped and the adaptability of the possessed incense stick.

There are many things to consider when looking at incense.

There are the most tricks here.

Yawning, singing, changing accents, these are all considered as quiet fascination. Generally speaking, the more obvious the effect, the greater the burden on the incense head.

It is said that this is the most advanced magic of intoxication, which will not affect the person burning incense at all, but can perfectly borrow the magic power of the immortals.

Of course, a lord like Uncle Tao who is in charge of a dilapidated village would definitely not be able to perform such a fascination.

But in general, it is enough.

After chatting for a while, Uncle Tao's singing became louder and louder, and he suddenly shouted.

"Lock the door."

Hearing the shout, Liu Sheng and another apprentice hurried to the left and right corners, lit a stick of incense, and then started dancing.

The fat apprentice took a rusty and paint-chipped bell and started beating it rhythmically behind the old man.

The dancing of the two apprentices could not be described as graceful, but rather had an absurd and ancient sense of harmonious beauty.

slap~
Uncle Tao slapped his forehead with his left hand, and dozens of hairs flew out, avoiding the villagers and searching for their target as if they had spirits.

The next second, a gust of dark wind of indistinct shape swept out from the crowd and tried to escape to the village entrance, but was bounced back by the invisible door.

If you look closely, you will find that it is a gray fox with some human characteristics.

The villagers present immediately screamed and scattered, while the strong men with hoes and rakes rushed up immediately, wanting to beat him to death with sticks.

The gray fox cried miserably, sweeping its broom-like tail across, stirring up a cloud of flying sand and rocks.

Lu Bai narrowed his eyes slightly. This doesn’t seem right?
He had to admit that he was not an expert in exorcism.

But he felt that this gray fox was obviously different from the one he had seen before, and why would this thing cause confusion in guidance?

Things have indeed changed.

The dishevelled peasant woman suddenly pounced behind Uncle Tao, and her extended nails went straight to the back of his head like claws.

A strong wind blew, and Uncle Tao had no time to think, and he rolled over subconsciously.

The attack missed and the peasant woman let out a shrill fox cry, which shocked Uncle Tao, who had not yet stood up, into a trance. He was about to die in the sneak attack.

Fortunately, Lu Bai realized that there was a problem in advance and was prepared to take action.

So when the peasant woman suddenly jumped up, he just had time to rush over and kick her.

The kick was so powerful that it was not known whether the possessed fox spirit was hurt, but the peasant woman was definitely injured.
