Riding the Pheonix Chapter 37: Under the tree

The second master hurried back.

I was still sitting in my original position, and when I saw the second master coming back, I raised my eyelids and said, "What? You look like this, you seem to be in trouble?"

The second master pressed his eyebrows and couldn't help but sigh again: "That **** Lao Liu is causing trouble."

He said quietly: "The biggest thing is that he has already caused trouble, what else can happen?"

The second master hesitated to speak, but finally said: "He was drunk and confused, and he actually wanted to do something to Xiao Qi..."

"What?" It was only then that his expression fluctuated and his face turned angry, "Absurd! How did he become an uncle? Where is Xiao Qi? How are you now?"

"Nothing happened yet. The child was frightened, and a hairpin poked Lao Liu in the lower abdomen. Mrs. Ma said that she might not lift it again in the future."

Hearing what he said, the man softened his expression: "Just save your life. If you don't want to do it, don't do it. He has a baby anyway, so you don't have to be ridiculous anymore."

The second master also thought so: "Since you said so, then I will make arrangements."

As he was about to go out, he was stopped again: "You said, Xiao Qi's hairpin poked Lao Liu's lower abdomen, and it happened to damage that place?"

"Yes!"

"What does that hairpin look like?"

"It's the golden hairpin that her mother wears every day."

Seeing the other party frowning and saying nothing, the second master asked: "What's the problem?"

"Although the gold hairpin is sharp, it is not a sharp weapon after all. If you want to damage that place, I am afraid it will be deep."

The second master didn't take it seriously: "When people are in crisis, they are stronger than usual. The child was so frightened that her mother thought she was going to be stupid again, so she cried hard."

This person's brows were not relaxed: "It's strange how well she is recovering from her illness. The fourth child said before that she really knows mystical arts."

"Didn't you say that her lost soul was taken in by Empress Xuannv? It's a bit weird, isn't it strange?"

He still shook his head: "What a coincidence."

"Do you suspect that there is something wrong with Xiao Qi?" The second master thought about it and said, "I think it's quite normal."

"I hope I'm overthinking it." He waved his hand, "Go ahead."

After the second master left, the room became silent.

I don’t know how long it took, but the candle flame “peeled off”.

He whispered: "Return to the soul? Or... seize the soul?"

……

The next day, Mingwei became "sick".

She stayed in bed for two whole days before she looked like she had recovered.

Duofu walked with her in the garden while talking about what happened in the past two days.

"...I heard that Mr. Six had a dispute with someone outside and was injured. There has been chaos in the east courtyard these days. The old lady lost her temper and made everyone in their courtyard depressed."

Mingwei nodded, she knew all this.

The second master handled it very cleanly, and everyone in the Ming Dynasty thought that something happened to the sixth master while he was sleeping outside.

Unconsciously, they walked near the willow tree.

"Duofu, try opening your heavenly eyes." Mingwei suddenly said.

"Ah? Miss..." Duofu was a little timid.

"Why, don't you dare?"

Duofu gritted his teeth: "If the lady lets me see it, I will!"

Mingwei raised his hand to stop him again.

Duofu was puzzled: "Miss?" Shouldn't you let her see it?

Mingwei looked at her intently.

Duofu is actually very pretty, but half of her face is covered with dark spots, so no one pays attention to her appearance.

In addition, she always lowered her head, fearing that others would see her face, which made her even more timid.

The world only looks at her appearance and doesn’t know what a good girl she is.

Skillful, diligent and kind.

You may be timid, but you can bravely rush forward to protect others.

"Duofu, do you want to be a Xuanshi?"

Duofu was stunned for a moment, then stammered for a long time: "How can I, how can I be a Xuanshi? I heard that Xuanshi masters are so powerful..."

"Why not?" Mingwei asked softly, "If you knew mystical arts, would you be able to protect others and drive away demons and ghosts?"

"Of course!" Duofu did not hesitate.

Ming smiled: "Isn't that enough? If you can follow this belief throughout your life, you are a qualified Xuanshi."

"Really?" Duofu's eyes lit up, but he quickly lowered his head, "But I'm stupid..."

"Where are you stupid? Aren't you already able to open the Heavenly Eye? Do you know that disciples of the authentic Xuanmen have to go through a whole year of practice before they can open the Heavenly Eye?"

Blessed stay. Is that so? So she can also become a Xuanshi? Her heart was beating hard.

"Come." Mingwei pointed at the willow tree, "Open your eyes and see what this vicious thing looks like."

"Yes." Duofu suppressed the excitement in his heart, untied the red knot on his wrist, and tried to focus on the center of his eyebrows.

Soon, she entered that wonderful world again, and everything around her turned black and white.

She mustered up the courage to look at the evil creature on the willow tree.

This gray-white shadow has a layer of blood on it.

The lady said that this is a blood evil. The thicker the blood, the more ferocious it is.

Strange, I didn’t see any other colors today, what about the living soul?

Duofu glanced around and suddenly shouted: "Miss!"

"What?"

Duofu pointed to the bottom of the tree: "I found a line on this thing, connected to the soil."

"Oh?"

Mingwei also opened his own eyes.

Sure enough, I saw a vague line connecting to the soil.

Ming frowned slightly.

This vicious thing was indeed not brought in from outside.

It was bred by Yu Fang Yuan itself!

The thing that gave birth to it ~IndoMTL.com~ is buried under the willow tree!

"Miss?"

Mingwei took a deep breath: "Let's go back." She smiled slightly, "You discovered something very important."

"Really?" Although Duofu didn't understand, he was very happy.

After returning, Mingwei asked Aunt Tong for yellow paper and cinnabar.

Nanny Tong smiled and said, "Miss, are you going to draw a talisman?"

"Yes, I am also idle when I am idle. I draw a few talismans to provide to Empress Xuannv."

Nanny Tong said, "That makes sense. The yellow paper is ready-made, but the cinnabar is missing. I will ask someone to go out and buy it."

"Thank you, grandma."

Mother Tong went out to ask people to buy things.

Mingwei took out a piece of paper, picked up the pen, dipped his hand in water and tried it.

It’s been a while since I’ve drawn a talisman, I’m so new!

Since her magic power entered the door, there is no need to use magic charms to ward off evil spirits.

Now that my magic power is weak, if I want to do something, I have to resort to external forces.

If you don't suppress the evil thing on the tree, you can't dig the soil under the tree.

If you don’t dig up the soil under the tree, you won’t know where the root is.

She had a hunch that if she dug out that thing, the reason why Yu Fangyuan was haunted would come to light.

……

Just after the first update, Mrs. Mingsan had just changed out of her clothes, and Mother Tong came in with a note.

"Mrs."

Mrs. Ming San took one look and ordered: "Prepare water for bathing! Ask Su Jie Bingxin to come and serve."

Mother Tong sighed and whispered: "I know."

Hot water was quickly brought in, the little girls were sent out, and the atmosphere in the room was dull.

Not long after, Mrs. Ming San came out with a wet look on her face and sat in front of the mirror, drawing her eyebrows and licking her lips.

The night is thick, and the face under the candlelight is beautifully decorated.
