Walking all the way into the Chongjiao Hall, you can see carbon ash all over the ground before entering the door.
These were all left behind when performing rituals. The Taoist priest in charge of the rituals specifically told them to clean them after some time before leaving. Looking back now, maybe that basin of sewage had already been poured into the East Palace from that time on.
Xiao Desheng was the first supervisor to learn of the situation. When he saw the saint coming in with the Queen of Heaven, he quickly led the way. Going around to the back hall, the entire back hall, which is nearly 100 square feet, has been painted with formations. The blood-red lines were extremely ferocious, vaguely forming a pattern of an animal head. In the center of the formation, there is a scarecrow as tall as a man. Hanging around the scarecrow's neck is a sign with white characters on a black background. You don't need to read the two words on it to know what they are.
Nails were smashed into the holes of the formation, and red threads connected with thick needles were inserted into the acupuncture points on the scarecrow's body. Special care was given to several critical points, with more than a dozen thick needles pricking them.
Seeing this formation, Li Zhi shivered for no reason, and then softened.
"Supreme!"
The Queen of Heaven exclaimed, and she and Li Xian supported him.
"This is so outrageous! Someone, burn this bastard formation!"
Seeing that Li Zhi was furious, the Queen of Heaven said anxiously: "Your Majesty, it would be inappropriate to burn it directly. It is better to order Ming Chongyan to go to the palace and see if it can be cracked."
Ming Chongyan?
Li Xian was stunned when he heard the name.
If you think about it carefully, the guy with the most suspicion in this matter is Ming Chongyan. If you let this guy come over, who knows if there will be more variables.
After taking a look at the red silk threads in the formation that were frozen hard and the thick needles that could be inserted into straw, Li Xian suddenly had a plan in mind.
"Father, the less people know about this, the better. I happen to have studied the Feng Shui Bagua technique when I was in the fiefdom. In my opinion, it is not difficult to crack this technique."
"oh?"
Hearing what Li Xian said, Li Zhi suddenly became interested, stood up, and said with a smile: "Since you have a way, I will allow you to give it a try."
Li Xian nodded, cupped his hands and said, "If you are brave enough, please ask your father to give me a sacrificial dragon robe."
Li Zhi nodded and turned around to ask Jiang Hao to get it.
Seeing that Jiang Hao had left, Li Xian walked up to Du Chunyi and said, "General Du, you call eighty-one warriors, each holding two huge torches, come to the back hall and stand around the formation. At the same time, Remove part of the roof of the back hall, as long as the sunlight can shine in and shine on the formation."
After hearing the request clearly, Du Chunyi also went down to prepare.
It was a big deal, so everyone worked hard. Not long after, the roof of the palace was opened, and the sun shone in, just in time to illuminate the formation.
Jiang Hao was also very fast. He was sweating profusely as he limped over and carried the dress that Li Zhi had used to worship the gods.
There was a ready-made incense table in the Chongjiao Hall. Li Xian cleaned his hands and ordered Jiang Hao to unfold his dress in front of the sun. He then ordered eighty-one big men to hold torches to surround the formation. Then he put on a pair of mysterious and mysterious figures like a magic stick. With a quizzical expression, he put three sticks of incense in the incense burner, knelt down in front of the sun, and said:
"Prince Li Xian of the Tang Dynasty, I have sent a message to God. Today, there are evil thieves who despise me and are tired of winning. They want to kill the emperor. My father is responsible for the destiny of the country and dare not suffer any harm. I specially ask God to show his spirit and destroy this The magic formation will save my father from water and fire. Before the end of the year, I am willing to lead hundreds of officials and people to express my gratitude to God."
After reading, Li Xian fell to the ground and waited quietly for the temperature in the room to rise quickly.
Li Zhi stood quietly to the side, looking at Li Xian's behavior, very puzzled.
Of course he knew what the "Emperor" was like. When he was unlucky, he prayed to God more than once, but bad things still happened. Even if God has a spirit, everything in the world is established, so how can it be changed randomly?
Although the prince's method seemed interesting, it was still somewhat different from the method he had in mind to solve it. If you simply pray to God for blessings...
"ah?"
While he was thinking wildly, Li Zhi saw the needle on the scarecrow's body falling off inexplicably.
One stick.
Although he didn't look closely, he was sure that the needles were inserted in and very secure. But now no one pulls the threads, and the needles fall off inexplicably. What's going on?
Just when he thought it was a coincidence, the second needle fell again.
Torches were shining brightly around the formation. Many sergeants were already sweating from the high temperature, but no one dared to retreat.
The third root, the fourth root, the fifth root...
At the beginning, the needles fell one by one. When there were more than a dozen needles, the needles suddenly started to fall out while everyone was fighting for them.
Seeing this miraculous scene, the Queen of Heaven exclaimed and fell to the ground. The Queen of Heaven knelt down, and Xiao Desheng, Li Yun and others also knelt down on the ground. Li Zhi was stunned for a long time before he bowed and saluted.
Although the scene in front of him was magical, he was still a little confused. What was going on?
After a while, almost all the needles fell off, except for a few that were still firmly stuck in the scarecrow's body without any movement.
Hearing the exclamations that he was trying to suppress, Li Xian stood up, glanced at the few stubborn needles on the scarecrow in the field, and then looked at the sweaty sergeants. He cleared his throat and said, "The remaining needles are already gone." It’s nothing to worry about, just follow God’s will and throw the torch over and burn the formation directly.”
The sergeants, who had been burned by the torches for a long time, quickly threw the torches out. One hundred and sixty-two torches quickly ignited the scarecrows and silk threads.
Walking in front of Li Zhi, Li Xian knelt down and said: "Father, you are the Son of Heaven. You are blessed by God and are invulnerable to all poisons. How can such insidious formations be effective? Fortunately, I have not disgraced my order and have already completed the formation." The method has been cracked, please check it, Father."
Li Zhi nodded with a gloomy expression, glanced at the soldiers who were sweating from the fire and had burns on their faces, and said calmly: "Reward!"
The sergeants couldn't help but get excited when they finally heard this word.
They have been guarding the palace for many years, and naturally know that the more situations like this, the more they must persevere, and the rewards afterwards will be unimaginably rich.
Of course, they also know that no one can say anything about what happened here today. Sometimes if the tongue is too soft, the neck will be in danger. qδ.net
Du Chunyi left with the sergeants, and there were only a few people left in the huge back hall.
Li Zhi waved his hand, and the Queen nodded clearly, and left with Jiang Hao and others.
Looking at the main hall where only two people were left, Li Xian took a breath quietly.
How to answer Li Zhi's next question is really worrying.
