When Long Aotian Dressed as a White Lotus
Chapter 17
The mayor's mansion is half a street away from the yamen. It is a yard with three entrances and three exits. The area is not large, and the end can be seen at a glance.
When Ling Xiao and Qin Jiangli arrived at the mansion, there was also a rune given by the Taoist pasted on the door of the mansion.The strokes on the rune are tangled, showing the appearance of wet ink, but if you touch it, the ink has not moved at all, and has already solidified on it.
Ling Xiao frowned, stepped forward and raised his hand to tear off the rune.He paused, and then his fingertips gathered two points of spiritual power, intending to simply burn the rune to ashes on the wall.
Before he could make a move, the servant at the side rushed forward and blocked him with his hands raised.
"Immortal, don't do it, immortal!" the yamen servant stood in front of him and begged. "This talisman was first posted by the Taoist priest in front of the yamen, saying that it can suppress evil spirits and avoid evil spirits! Before the Taoist priest came here, there were two people who went crazy in the mansion. Once this talisman is pasted, there will be more Nothing happened!"
Ling Xiao frowned, and said coldly, it was natural.For Lu Duanchou and his party, whoever they want to kill depends entirely on their will. It is easiest for them to kill two in the mayor's mansion first, and then bypass this place.
Ling Xiao hooked his lips, and was about to say something sarcastic.
Unexpectedly, before he could speak, Qin Jiangli would speak first.He took a step forward, stood in front of Ling Xiao, bent his lips, smiled at him, and said, "Master, although this talisman is useless, it can calm their hearts anyway. Master, let's go into the yard to rest." , a talisman, it doesn’t matter if you don’t burn it.”
Hearing what he said, Ling Xiao frowned. .
This kid has no other skills, but now he dares to take care of him.
Ling Xiao turned his head to look coldly at Qin Jiangli, intending to reprimand him, the old and poisonous disciple of Chaoyue.
Then, he met Qin Jiangli's gaze and was stunned for a moment.
Qin Jiangli's eyes were dark and quiet, stable and bottomless.For some reason, Ling Xiao's heart stopped.
Ling Xiao looked into his eyes and was so full of words that he wanted to reprimand him that he couldn't speak.He pursed his lips, looked at Qin Jiangli for a moment, and then turned his eyes away.
Then, he put down his hand, the spiritual power of his fingertips dissipated, turned around and walked into the yamen.
"Lead the way ahead." He said coldly when passing by the yamen servant.
The yamen servant quickly responded, cast a grateful look at Qin Jiangli, and then led Ling Xiao and Qin Jiangli into the courtyard where they lived.
After entering the courtyard, when Qin Jiangli silently went to make tea for Ling Xiao with the spiritual tea he brought down the mountain, he came back to his senses.
Why did Qin Jiangli not let me burn it, so I won't burn it?
Why should I listen to him?
Therefore, when Qin Jiangli brought the tea, Ling Xiao's expression in front of him was a little cooler than before, sitting on the chair with his chin slightly raised, and looking down at him.
"In the future, you should not interfere in making decisions for the teacher, so don't interfere." Ling Xiao said. "The thing that a teacher hates the most in his life is the disciple who offends the superior and makes his own opinions."
Qin Jiangli answered yes with drooping eyes, with no expression on his face, and put the teacup by Ling Xiao's hand: "Master, please use tea."
Ling Xiao hummed in a cold voice, picked up the teacup, and thought that he had regained the majesty as a master that he had lost for some reason.
But he didn't know that his expression at this moment, in the eyes of his disciples, was like a long-haired cat lying on a seat, squinting its eyes and flicking its tail, meowing lazily and throwing a temper tantrum, but he didn't know that he was getting angry. People love tightly.
Qin Jiangli only glanced at it, then was taken aback by the inexplicable disrespectful thought in his heart, and lowered his eyes again.
As for the rune on the yamen of Xianlai Township, General Qin already had a plan in his heart.
The entire Xianlai Town has already become a huge magic circle.The civilians in the battle are all the turtles in the urn, and their lives are all at the mercy of others.
And the eye of the magic circle must be the first talisman pasted in front of the mansion.
After storing tea for Ling Xiao, Qin Jiangli walked out with the teapot in hand.He easily found the yamen servant who had just led the way, and walked over calmly.
"This big brother." He leaned slightly to salute, and said to the yamen servant. "Pindao has something that I don't understand, so I ask this big brother to give me some advice."
Seeing that the little fairy was saluting to him, the yamen servant was so frightened that he was at a loss, and quickly replied respectfully and said: "You don't need to be too polite, the fairy, if you have any questions, you will know everything."
The priest in front of him didn't look very old, but there was a calmness in his expression that far exceeded his age.His eyes are calm, and although his facial features are sharp and profound, he has a sinking quiet aura throughout his body, which makes people want to trust him inexplicably.
Qin Jiangli pursed his lips, smiled lightly, and asked, "May I ask this elder brother, are the runes pasted on the door of this mansion really so effective?"
The yamen servant heard the words, slapped his thigh, and quickly said: "Naturally! You don't know, this fairy, before the Taoist priest came, there were ghosts and ghosts in the town! Wait for the Taoist priest to come I used the stellar energy to frighten the evil spirits, so that they did not dare to come out to cause trouble, but three people still went crazy every day. But since the priest's talisman was pasted on our door, hey, the people in this yard, Make sure you're safe and sound!"
Qin Jiangli raised his eyebrows secretly.
He then asked: "Then, can the effect of this spell be divided into depths?"
The yamen servant hurriedly continued: "Of course there are! Every time the Taoist priest draws runes, his skills will be weakened a little bit, but the first batch drawn are the most effective. Afterwards, everyone flocked to grab them, But there are only so many Taoist talismans each time, so we had to draw lots to decide."
"Draw lots?" Qin Jiangli asked with a frown.
The yamen servant said: "That's right! The Taoist priest said that he doesn't care about rich and poor, so he used this method..."
Qin Jiangli said: "Excuse me, brother, is there a record for the order of each round of stickers?"
The yamen servant said: "Yes! It's at the gatehouse of the yamen. Every time the people want to go to the Taoist priest to ask for amulets, they will go there to register!"
Qin Jiangli nodded, smiled at the yamen servant, and said, "Thank you, big brother."
After speaking, he took the teapot, turned around and walked back.
Sure enough, as he guessed, the Taoist priest set up a magic circle in the town by sticking talismans.In the magic circle, all beings are like chess pieces on his chessboard, letting him drive them.If a certain part of the array is damaged, or the caster dies, the magic circle will definitely be triggered.
Therefore, this formation cannot be destroyed rashly, and the Taoist priest cannot be killed either.
Qin Jiangli walked back silently.
He didn't want to care about these things.No one cared about his life and death, and he didn't bother to care who would die today or tomorrow.Anyway, this world is here, whoever dies dies, and it remains unchanged.
However, what he couldn't get rid of was the appearance of Ling Xiao in the Yamen just now.
She... was supposed to be someone who no one would care about except herself.
However, just now, she was actually in the hall, for her own sake, despite everyone's suspicion.Moreover, she was able to stand up like that, confront that demon Taoist head-on, and even wanted to take his life with her own hands.
She was so different from Ling Xiao in my impression.
She was able to become upright, brave, and even a little foolish.
The current Ling Xiao must be unable to solve the crisis in front of her with all her efforts like the deep-minded her before.
Therefore, he also had to work harder, leaving behind.
... After all, he wants to protect the current master.Even if this kind of thinking is only a little bit, it drives him not to sit idly by.
After all... this was the first person he wanted to protect.
-
When the sun went down that day, a yamen servant came to invite Ling Xiao.Said that the Taoist priest was going to practice in front of the yamen hall, and asked Ling Xiao if he wanted to assist him.
When Ling Xiao heard the words "assisting from the side", he almost lost his breath in anger.There was a sneer on the corner of his lips, and he said coldly with unknown meaning: "Naturally."
It is impossible to help from the side, but he wants to see what kind of moth will come out of this demon way.
When we arrived at the yamen, the hall was already filled with ritual banquets. The old Taoist priest was wearing a long robe with wide sleeves, and the cloth on his body was covered with auspicious symbols. He was waving a wooden sword in his hand and muttering words.
Seeing Ling Xiao approaching, the mayor next to him leaned forward and explained in a low voice: "The gate of ghosts opens at midnight, this Taoist chief is chanting a spell to suppress ghosts!"
Ling Xiao sneered: "It would be amazing if you can suppress it."
Hearing this, the mayor smiled awkwardly, and stopped talking to Ling Xiao.
"Master, there may be fraud in this." Qin Jiangli followed him beside him, whispering. "This Taoist priest is already at odds with Master, why did he send someone to invite you over?"
Ling Xiao frowned and pondered for a moment, then said: "But I don't have any clues yet. Let's see what tricks he can come up with, and whether he will let his feet slip."
When Qin Jiangli heard the words, he answered yes in a low voice.
Time passed slowly until noon came.
There were faint screams in the town.Undoubtedly, tonight, someone else was emptied of their souls at noon and turned into murderous and bloodthirsty walking corpses.
The Taoist priest had a sad look on his face, and the mayor hurriedly ordered the yamen servants to arrest the insane person who was in the commotion and bring them back.
A team of yamen servants came back with another person in yamen servants' clothes tied up within a moment.
That person was unexpectedly the one who led Ling Xiao and General Qin out of their residence this morning.
"This...how did it appear in my mansion?!" The mayor's legs softened, his face turned pale, and cold sweat began to fall. "I... Daoist! The talisman in my house is obviously..."
One of the yamen servants turned pale and said to the mayor, "My lord...the other two are also in your house. One of them is your wife."
The mayor's face turned pale, his eyes were dull, and he almost fainted.
The Taoist frowned and said: "It shouldn't be. I was the first to draw the spell of the mansion of the Lord. Naturally, it can restrain the ghosts and keep the party safe. If there are variables, then there are only..."
He raised his head and looked at Qin Jiangli and Ling Xiao.
"Only these two."
