Chapter 212: Air Confrontation
"It is indeed a heart poison." Shangguan Jin narrowed his eyes slightly.
At this moment, in her field of vision, the aura flowing on the body of businessman Yang Changfu has turned into hundreds of data.
Subsequently, these data turned into countless lines and trajectories, and finally outlined an invisible Gu insect hidden deep in his soul.
She paused for a moment, then continued: "I didn't expect that such a mystery could be hidden in such a small courtyard."
"Fellow Daoist Shangguan, I have just come to the capital, and I am not familiar with everything here," Gu Xu said. "Do you think there is anyone in Luojing City who could master such a weird method? And he is out of What is the motive for choosing to attack Yang Changfu in this way? "
"As far as I know, the Daqi royal family, aristocratic families, and many officials and dignitaries will hire some monks who are good at Feng Shui to help them create a new world. "A good cultivation illusion," Shangguan Jin thought for a while and replied, "As for the art of witchcraft and poison... usually, Daqi monks look down on it very much, thinking that it is a crooked way and cannot be refined.
“Even if someone wants to use it, they will only use it secretly and secretly. Therefore, I really don’t know anyone in the capital who is good at such a spell.
"If you want to ask, who is most likely to have the motive for committing the crime...then it is undoubtedly Yang Changfu's enemy or business competitor."
Speaking of this, Shangguan Jin did not wait. Gu Xu responded, then turned to look at Yang Changfu who was dazed at the side: "Mr. Yang, have you ever made enemies with anyone before? Or did you have any business disputes with others?"
Yang Changfu was stunned for two seconds and finally came to his senses: "Ah, no! How could a person like me, who is easy-going and generous, possibly make enemies with others casually? They were all vying to make friends with me! "
Shangguan Jin shook his head slightly, knowing that he couldn't get any useful information out of this guy.
"Fellow Shangguan, I think we should solve the feng shui problem in this courtyard and the witchcraft on Yang Changfu first!" At this time, Gu Xu said, "The remaining situation , we reported the truth to the Yamen and asked the Yamen to send special personnel to investigate. "
Due to the large number of people at the Luojing City Exorcism Department Headquarters, its internal division of labor is very different from that in Yishui County.
The number of monks in Yishui County is rare, and most of the monks are not high-level. As a result, many officials have multiple responsibilities.
Like Gu Xu at the beginning, he had to solve crimes, kill ghosts, and draw talismans. Sometimes he also had to help people improve their housing feng shui, help others organize documents, or lead new people to do tasks...even the county government next door wanted to arrest him. Robbers will ask him for help.
But within Luojing City, the division of labor among the monks is very detailed - the ghost killers are only responsible for killing ghosts, and the account managers are only responsible for accounting... In addition, there are also specialized Library administrator, newbie training instructor, intelligence analyst, etc.
Each person is like a tiny part in the machine, each performing its own duties and driving the complex machinery of the Exorcist Department to run at high speed according to a specific rhythm.
As the sixth-level head of the Exorcism Department, Gu Xu’s main responsibility is to deal with ghosts.
Conflicts between people - whether it is interest disputes between businessmen, grudges among civilians, or looking for other behind-the-scenes masterminds... they do not fall under his jurisdiction. I don’t like to get involved in these things either.
Therefore, in the case he encountered today, he only needed to solve the part related to extraordinary power.
The rest can naturally be left to people who are better at it.
Shangguan Jin nodded and approved Gu Xu's idea.
She tapped the jade pendant around her waist three times.
The jade pendant glowed with light and began to record today's case.
Gu Xu then ordered: "Xiaohan, please go over there and clear away the vines on the walls and trees."
"Okay!" Shi Xiaohan agreed happily, and at the same time stretched out his hand towards Gu Xu Take action.
Gu Xu took out the "Kunwu Sword" from "Xianyunju" and handed it to her hand.
Shi Xiaohan held the big knife in his arms, and then jumped towards the wall.
She had been standing next to Gu Xu in a daze just now - she couldn't understand what Gu Xu and Shangguan Jin said, such as Feng Shui Kanyu, the Avenue of Cause and Effect, the art of witchcraft, etc.
These profound and remote knowledge fell into her ears like a lullaby, making her head dizzy and she couldn't help but yawn several times.
Until now, she finally has a use.
Of course, Gu Xu also found something to do for her after seeing her idle and bored.
Perhaps in order to vent his restless mood, Shi Xiaohan directly used the "Taotie Seal", and a clear Taotie shadow appeared behind him, and then used the fierce and violent "Overlord Sword Technique", wielding The "Kunwu Sword" struck hard at the vines on the wall and on the trees.
It seems that in her eyes, these vines are monsters with ferocious faces and claws.
Even while wielding the knife, she shouted words such as "Watch the move", "Eat me with a knife", "Where are the evil spirits running", "Too weak", etc.
Soon, she chopped down all the vines in the courtyard.
While Xiao Han was chopping the vines with great interest, Gu Xu was also using his powerful spiritual power to observe the flow of breath in the courtyard and the state of the soul of businessman Yang Changfu.
At this moment, Gu Xu clearly saw a black vine spiraling up from under Yang Changfu's feet, surrounding his body in circles, and extending to his neck.
He knew clearly that this black vine was not an entity, but a killing pattern composed of Feng Shui techniques, a concrete projection of the evil spirit. Only monks who have studied the mysteries of Feng Shui and have very powerful spiritual power can see it.
Yang Changfu's bad luck in recent times comes from this.
Under the influence of a certain spell, the effect of these evil spirits was greatly enhanced, directly forcing Yang Changfu to sell his property at a low price and couldn't wait to escape from here.
The dragon energy veins in Luojing City are also blocked to a certain extent.
At the moment when Shi Xiaohan was about to cut off the last vine, the invisible black vine seemed to suddenly turn into a living thing, waving its branches and leaves with bared teeth and claws, and suddenly rushed towards Shi Xiaohan's position. go. Shi Xiaohan had never learned the art of Feng Shui, so he couldn't see the black vine. He only felt a cool wind blowing around him, and he shivered involuntarily.
But Gu Xu's reaction was even faster.
With a thought in his mind, he took out an improved "Evil Evil Talisman", murmured a curse in his mouth, and threw it towards the black vine.
The moment the talisman came into contact with the black vine, invisible flames burst out from the black vine, which gradually began to melt and collapse, and was finally purified and completely evaporated from the world.
At the same time, businessman Yang Changfu also suddenly felt a lightness on his body.
The suppressed and irritable emotions in my heart a few days ago disappeared in an instant. Even the vision became much clearer than usual, as if the whole world suddenly brightened up, and the spirit was lifted.
"Gu...Master Gu, you...what did you just do to me?" Yang Changfu was in a daze for a moment and asked Gu Xu.
"I've driven away the bad luck for you," Gu Xu smiled and replied, "It's just a little effort. No need to thank me."
Yang Changfu was stunned for two seconds again. He suppressed the words he was about to say, "Thank you, sir, for your kindness, I will never forget it".
He has long heard that the monks of the Exorcist Department have great magical powers.
But he did not expect that the monks of the Exorcism Department could not only eliminate ghosts, but also eliminate this invisible and intangible bad luck.
Shi Xiaohan put the "Kunwu Sword" back into its sheath and looked around at the same spot.
In her eyes, Gu Xu's performance just now seemed to be a battle of wits and courage with the air.
At this time, Gu Xu turned to look at Shangguan Jin again: "Friend Shangguan, how much do you know about the method of cracking the 'heart poison'?"
"I know a little bit. "Two," Shangguan Jin said in a deep voice, "If I remember correctly, the 'Heart Gu' is different from other Gu insects in southern Xinjiang. It does not have a physical body, but exists in the form of a spiritual body. After entering the human body, it will form a parasitic relationship with the host's soul, absorbing the host's soul power and using it to strengthen its own body.
"The power of true energy cannot harm it.
"If you want to destroy it, you must rely on the pure power of the soul, and at the same time be cautious to avoid damaging the host's soul.
"I think... I can give it a try. "
Gu Xu nodded.
Although he has also practiced the "solar eclipse" spell, the strength of the soul power is far greater than that of monks in the same realm.
But Shangguan After all, Jin is a fourth-level monk, and he also has a variety of ways to fight the enemy
The impression she left on Gu Xu has always been unfathomable.
So, since Shangguan Jin took the initiative to solve the "heart poison" problem at this time, Gu Xu was also willing to step aside and enjoy the feeling of "winning by lying down".
"Mr. Yang, please relax and don't move yet," Shangguan Jin told Yang Changfu, "You still have some minor problems, let me help you solve them."
She As he spoke, he narrowed his eyes slightly and his gaze became extraordinarily deep.
A ray of her consciousness penetrated Yang Changfu's flesh, penetrated into Yang Changfu's sea of consciousness, and saw the small transparent Gu worm hidden in his soul.
"I found you!" The corners of her mouth turned up slightly.
In an instant, the power of her consciousness turned into a sharp sword - just like the Tianyue Sword she usually controlled with her true energy, she stabbed hard at the Gu worm.
If an expert who is proficient in spiritual consciousness magic sees this scene, he will be deeply amazed by her meticulous control of spiritual consciousness.
Mortal souls are fragile.
As long as there is a slight mistake, it may cause permanent damage to Yang Changfu's soul.
But Shangguan Jin's spiritual consciousness is precise and fast.
If nothing unexpected happens, this Gu insect will be easily eliminated by her with lightning speed.
…………
At the same time.
In a thatched cottage a few miles north of Luojing and close to Mang Mountain, a sturdy middle-aged woman wearing a cloth shirt was sitting on a futon with her eyes closed and practicing.
Suddenly, she opened her eyes.
“I really didn’t expect that my ‘heart poison’ would be discovered by someone. Sure enough, there are crouching tigers and hidden dragons in Luojing City,” she said to herself, “It’s just that you have worked so hard to kill me. You have to ask my mother if she agrees with you."
After she finished speaking, a bright silver light flashed from the corner of her eyes.
