The impatience in Ye San Geng's tone could be interpreted by Shi Gandang as a joke. He believed that Ye San Geng would never really want to hammer him.
"Death" him. But Shi Gandang absolutely believed that the fat monk would definitely beat him to death! Believe it without reason.
Because the great monk's bull eyes seemed to burst out of his sockets as he strode straight towards him. With those palm-leaf fan-like slaps, Shi Gandang had absolutely reason to believe that if they hit him, he would have to rely on his own ability to prevent them. It's possible to prevent it, but it certainly won't be as bad as Zhang Jiuping's. Vomiting blood is the most basic thing. Lying down for ten days and a half should be considered light.
Relying on his ingenious movement skills, Shi Gandang was like the wind blowing in the willows. His body swayed and swept back more than ten feet, avoiding the opponent's attack in advance.
The great monk with brute strength refused to give up and continued to charge forward. Shi Gandang looked at Ye Sanqiang, but saw that he had no intention of hindering what happened here. It was obvious that his thoughtless words just now angered the other party.
"Third Young Master, make him stop quickly." Faced with the great monk's pressing step by step, Shi Gandang chose to beg for mercy in a very spineless manner.
He turned a blind eye and turned a deaf ear in the middle of the night, not intentionally, but because Shi Gandang's words just now attracted the attention of all the Taoist priests, which made him extremely embarrassed.
I have to say that this young Taoist priest from the Taishan sect is really good at physical skills. After feeling that he would not be cared about at all in the middle of the night, he moved his feet to change the scenery, leaving almost only an afterimage. It can be seen that it was Bu Gangtao. The dou secretly matches the hexagram, the big circle covers the small circle, the monk is not in a hurry to come forward, his figure floats out several feet in a daze, if there is nothing, and paired with the white Taoist robe, he is really as elegant as an immortal.
"Wait until the Third Young Master calms down, then I can go and bother you again." The figure flickered away, and not to mention his cultivation level, this movement alone was definitely weird.
Naturally, Yishan couldn't catch up and was stopped in the middle of the night. Now that Zhang Jiuping woke up, it was best to check his situation as the top priority.
Obviously, he did not remember clearly what he did before he fell into coma. Only by practicing doing nothing and not causing trouble can he become a childlike figure. After being helped up by his disciples, the Wudang elder looked at a loss and tried his best to recall all the previous events.
Looking at his eyes and combining it with his actions just now, it turned out that the things he had interacted with in the past few days were indeed somewhat mysterious. Ye San had to think of his guess again and looked at the Taoist nun of the Xiangxi sect in the apricot-yellow robes in the crowd over there.
At that time, I not only heard people mention it when traveling in the world, but also heard some incredible rumors about this branch of Taoism in street conversations.
Suddenly, he suddenly thought of another strange method that did not belong to the Taoist sect, which had not been famous in recent decades.
Just like the three religions of Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism and pure martial arts, the Xiangxi sect does not only practice the two methods of dividing Qi and body.
The Xiangxi Sect was inherited from Taoism and established its religion with talismans. However, in a small-scale battle decades ago, it also absorbed the shamanism native to the Shiwan Mountains. It is considered to be inclusive and wants to learn from other sects to make up for their shortcomings. to strengthen its own strength.
Witchcraft began with the witchcraft in ancient times. However, over time, it has been outlawed by the orthodox Dajiao of Taoism. At present, only some ethnic minorities in the Shiwan Mountains still use this oldest method of worship. , the world knows very little about it, even if it is like three o'clock in the night, they just heard the uncles who traveled around the family talk about it after drinking, and mentioned it in one word.
In the witchcraft religion, after more than a thousand years of development, the only method left is a Gu technique that is even less known to the outside world.
Gu magic is naturally different from Taoist magic. It is a mysterious object carefully cultivated over many years through special methods. It is divided into living and dead objects. One vood is paired. The person holding the vood casts the child vood, and the mother vood in the hand can control others. Like a puppet.
Those who live in the Shiwan Mountains in western Hunan and are called uncivilized people in the Central Plains rely on various local poisons, such as snakes, rats, insects, ants, or vines and grass nests. A fight between villages.
This secret technique is inherited from the same line. Hundreds of thousands of mountains stretch for thousands of miles and there are countless villages. However, there are only a few families who have practiced this technique for thousands of years. According to legend, the person who holds the poison must be extremely yin and be trapped by the poison all his life. House, and Gu depend on each other.
It stands to reason that such methods have nothing to do with Taoist magic. It's just that at that time, the Xiangxi sect, which claimed to be orthodox in Taoism, had some urgent illnesses and sought medical treatment indiscriminately. In order to strengthen its lintel, it also tried its best to think that witchcraft was a lineage of Taoism. It was unthinkable. After the merger, it was discovered that this sect had developed over the years and had no resemblance to Taoism.
Therefore, even if the witchcraft and Gu arts were incorporated into the Xiangxi sect, which had a very small audience, it would be done so in a secluded manner.
As for voodoo, it was originally a mysterious method practiced in small places and had not been widely used by the public. In addition, this kind of Jianghu sect was not recorded even by unofficial historians. At the time of midnight, I only heard vague mentions from people at home. And, I accidentally remembered this time, it was just Inuji House.
Without him, combined with Zhang Jiuping's actions, Ye Sangeng had to doubt the secret technique of the Xiangxi sect to control people's minds, as well as the gu technique of his disciples that can control people.
Thinking of this, Ye San was even more sure that Jiugong Yan was secretly connected with the Xiangxi Sect and was secretly endangering the Taoist sect.
Zhang Jiuping shook his head, pushed away the disciple in the door beside him, clasped his fists and saluted: "Donor Ye, I don't know why just now, please don't blame me if I offended you." Ye Sangeng, who had some understanding in his heart, didn't care. Rather, what he was concerned about was why this Wudang elder had such a change.
Midnight waved his hand to indicate that it was okay and asked: "How did Taoist Master Jiuping feel just now?" Still thinking about all the things he had done in a daze just now, Zhang Jiuping mused: "It seems that he is no longer himself and is completely out of control. Just now. What I did is a little blurry now. I only remember that there was only one thought in my head at the right time, which was to kill the night benefactor." As for the Xiangxi sect's corpse exorcism and voodoo techniques, I only heard what others said, especially the voodoo techniques that can control people. , this method that is almost evil, I am afraid that the entire Zhou Dynasty knows very little about it. As a result, there is no way to understand this secret technique.
In the middle of the night, I suddenly remembered Master Rabbit. It would be an exaggeration to say that the twelve of them had traveled all over the Zhou Dynasty when they were young, and they had also heard about the witchcraft and Gu arts from their mouths.
Zhang Jiu'e also hurried over at this time. After all, the elders in the sect violently committed murder. Although he did not succeed, the matter was absolutely shocking.
Especially when the other party is still late at night, which is what my very senior great-uncle Zeng just told me to take proper care of.
Otherwise, the reason why I have changed my name now is just to create some sense of closeness. The young Taoist priest who went to report the news clearly explained the whole story on the way, and Zhang Jiue once again apologized respectfully.
Looking at this old man whom he had just met, the light was dim in the wing room just now. Looking at him now, he felt much more haggard than when he first met a few days ago. Ye San couldn't help but feel a little sad.
He was not a hypocritical person, and sighed: "There are many weird things happening here, and I am not unaware of them. I just hope that I can quickly find out the mastermind behind it and restore my innocence." Zhang Jiue felt the same and said: "We still need to I rely on the Third Young Master to help me." The big hat was on, just like in the wing room just now. On the surface, this old Daoist was a good man, and he followed the rules when talking and doing things, but in fact he was also very thoughtful.
Ye San Geng waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, I'm just keeping an eye on it for Yue Qingfeng. He'll take over after handling the matters outside the mountain. I'll leave immediately." Zhang Jiue nodded in agreement.
"That's natural, that's natural." He is also very good at beating snakes with a stick. In the middle of the night, he suddenly asked: "Does Taoist Master Jiu'e understand the Gu art?" After all, they are all members of the same Taoist sect, which is similar to the witchcraft and Gu art that others don't know, so presumably they should also understand it to some extent.
Zhang Jiue and Zhang Jiuping are both old and mature. Just hearing this question will make him understand. Zhang Jiue was surprised and said: "The third young master suspects the Xiangxi sect?" All the relevant things are speculations without evidence, for fear of being spread by everyone. Jin confused Ye Sangen and shook his head and said: "I'm just asking. What Taoist Master Jiuping did just now was obviously controlled by someone. I really can't think of any other sect that has this ability."
"Sure enough, Third Young Master is well-informed, and it shows that he knows the little-known secret method of Gu." Zhang Jiue praised him sincerely,
"It's just that I've only heard about it, never seen it, and I don't know much about its power. I only know that it can confuse other people's minds and become puppets. As for how to operate it, I really don't know." I didn't hold out much hope. Naturally, she would not be disappointed even if she was late at night, so she couldn't help but take another look at the Taoist nun from the Xiangxi sect.
"Would you like to go over and ask?" Zhang Jiuping suggested,
"After all, things here are inextricably related to all the Taoist sects in the world. I don't think the Xiangxi Sect is hiding it." Night Midnight shook his head,
"It's better not to alert the snake. Please ask Taoist Master Jiu'e to find a smarter Taoist priest to monitor secretly. If there is any movement, he will take it down in one fell swoop. By then, both the person and the person will get the stolen goods. No matter how she quibbles, it will be useless." There is nothing at the moment. Zhang Jiue nodded and accepted the other methods.
Nothing much happened. Thinking of the piece of bark that he had just picked off, he said goodbye at midnight and called the monk to leave in a hurry.
But what Ye Sangen didn't expect was that he was stopped by a female crown halfway. Hu Feizhen. Just like Shi Gandang was waiting for him when he first arrived, when he left, this Taoist nun in a frosty white robe stood by the mountain road with a timid posture.
In view of the untestable hysteria that Shi Gandang said just now, Ye San Geng did not dare to have too much involvement with this woman. For a while, it was normal behavior in the eyes of others, and Ye San Geng was even more afraid of staying a little longer. You will become schizophrenic yourself.
So the Taoist nun who was watching the Xiangpai asked
"Donor Ye is helping the officials investigate the case." After that, Ye Sangen told her happily,
"Yes, Taoist Aunt Hu can rest assured. We will find out the murderer as soon as possible, so that your sect Huang Taoist priest can rest in peace." After saying that, she was about to leave, but after walking a few steps, Hu Feizhen's sobs came, and she sobbed: "I didn't do anything last night I saw that Taoist priest Xie Jinzhi of the Xiangxi sect was once with Taoist priest Li Ji." One sentence made Ye Sangen stop in his tracks.
Just now, I was guessing that the Xiangxi sect had weird methods that could drive away corpses. Could it be that my guess was right if it came true?
Jiugongyan mentioned it when explaining to Han Dingtian at that time
Couldn't the "junior sister" be a Taoist nun from the Xiangxi sect? ! Seeing her looking at her in the middle of the night, the Taoist nun from Kanxiang Sect said again: "I also discovered it accidentally. I don't know if it will be helpful to your investigation."
"When did you see me?"
"At three o'clock in the morning, two people are walking towards the back mountain." The time is right. Midnight fell into deep thought. Feeling Hu Feizhen's obedient gaze, she thought of Shi Gandang's words again in the middle of the night. This Taoist nun with two temperaments should be the one who speaks well.
In the middle of the night, he tentatively asked, "Can I ask you something?"
"Yes." The Taoist nun with pear blossoms and rainy eyes agreed softly.
"Did you tell Taoist Master Shi Gan of the Taishan Sect that there are Fuying people who often associate with your sect?" Hu Feizhen nodded.
"Do you know who it is?" Perhaps because Ye Sangeng asked hastily, her tone was somewhat anxious, so that this Taoist nun, who was not high in cultivation but could use such a powerful means of seizing and possessing a body, frowned slightly, and her eyes revealed it. Sometimes awake, sometimes confused.
"In the rain..." As if he was deep in thought, recalling who that person was, the expression on Hu Feizhen's face was uncertain for a while, and he seemed to be quite embarrassed in the middle of the night.
"Yu Zhonghu..." It was obvious that she had just bumped into him in the teacher's sect accidentally, and even the name of this person was only vaguely heard, so she was trying her best to search for the vaguest impression in her memory.
"Sheng Hutao..." Hu Feizhen's expression of embarrassment had turned into discomfort, as if a hundred claws scratching her heart were causing suffering, and she began to beat her head with fists.
"Lu Shenghu..." Regarding this performance, the late night watchman was naturally confused. The great monk Yishan on the side asked in confusion: "Is she suffering from hysteria?" I don't know whether to say that he has a crow's mouth or that he is having trouble. I was enlightened by the Buddhist scriptures in the day. I just heard Shi Gandang from the Taishan Sect mentioned this disease and remembered it in my heart. Although it was a bit unbelievable for him, a monk who usually only eats and drinks. , but now it’s a miracle that he can put it straight.
So, as soon as Yishan finished speaking, the eyes of the Taoist nun from Liaodong Kanxiang Sect suddenly became clear. She looked at Midnight and Yishan and said in a bad tone: "What do you want to do?" They clearly changed into two people. Ye San Geng was dumbfounded. He finally understood the symptoms of epilepsy. Obviously, he has a very difficult temperament to get along with right now. Ye San Geng said: "It's okay, I'm just passing by." After saying that, he pulled Yi Shan away and left. Dare to stay a moment longer.
