Astral Apostle Chapter 183: Dragon Climbing
Ningtian House, Ximen Ferry.
Today, the scenery on the river is the same as before, with boats coming and going, thousands of sails swaying, and the wharf is busy and lively.
Mei Zhanqing rushed to the pier with her luggage on her back. She had already changed into a strong suit, with a leather hat on her head and a sword hanging from her waist. She dressed like a Jianghu guest, not a Taoist.
She was busy and hurried, glanced around, and then quickly jumped into a awning boat, threw a silver to the boatman, and directly shouted: "Stop the gossip, I have an urgent matter, and I will set off immediately."
The boatman who was resting heard someone boarded the boat, and wanted to ask, but when he got to his mouth, he was smashed back by money.
He weighed the silver ingot and realized that it was full of ounces. He smiled like a chrysanthemum, and immediately shouted the guest officer to sit down, and then immediately carried Mei Zhanqing out of the port.
Mei Zhanqing hid in the awning, quietly took out several spiritual bags from her arms, opened them all, and whispered the mantra.
Several similar-looking evil spirits flew out of it, circled around, and then attacked passers-by who were unaware of the port dock, and penetrated the bodies of many people in an instant.
These passersby couldn't see the ghosts, and they were not injured when they passed through them. They just felt a chill all over their bodies, and they felt a shock.
What they don't know is that they are already infected with evil spirits, and they will become seriously ill in a few days.
Several evil spirits target not only the people on the pier, but also the belly of the boat that is sailing on the river, leaving traces everywhere, causing more and more people to be infected with the evil spirit.
"Hopefully delaying the pursuit..."
Mei Zhanqing's face was quite painful.
These evil spirits are all resentful spirits that she has forged through the technique of raising ghosts. They can harm people with evil spirits. Each one is carefully selected, and they are very particular about the birth date of the deceased.
Nursing ghosts should always be nourished by yin qi, otherwise they will be backlashed, and every time she drives yin evil ghosts, yin qi is consumed, and she needs to re-sacrifice. On weekdays, she is reluctant to use it easily, but today, in order to escape from life , and don't care about the money.
Mei Zhanqing has escaped from Zhang's house at this time and plans to take a boat to escape.
It takes time for the Zhang family to search for help, and the time difference in the middle is a fleeting opportunity to escape. She didn't dare to delay any longer, and kept running towards Ximendu.
Because she has fought with Wei Zifu many times, Mei Zhanqing has a good understanding of the tracking effect of the Qi technique, so ghosts are occasionally released on the road to spread the evil spirit, trying to confuse the perception of the Qi technique.
This move is very useful to get rid of Wei Zifu, but she doesn't know if Master Yufeng will be hit.
——Even if it doesn't work, as long as you can stop it for a while, it's worth it.
The purpose of spreading yin qi at Ximen Ferry is to let their own aura mix into it, so that the pursuers can't pinpoint who she is at the first time, so as to hide the sky and cross the sea.
She knew that Zhou Jing could fly in the wind, but she felt that as long as she could take a boat and cross before the other party locked her, she still had a chance to run away.
In her opinion, Master Yufeng is highly skilled, and no matter how he escapes, he is at risk, and it is always better to go by water than by land, at least not so easy to be chased and intercepted by a large group of people.
Mei Zhanqing is also not completely sure that she can escape, but she doesn't want to sit still, she should run or run.
If she waited until tomorrow to fight the law, she would put her fate in the hands of others. She didn't want to do this, so she could only cut it off immediately and take the risk to escape.
"It's unfortunate for my aunt to meet such an expert... But as long as she can stay away from Ning Tian, Lingfengzi will probably not pursue her. Only Wei Zifu is biting me like a mad dog."
Mei Zhanqing made plans in her heart, and secretly prayed that the enemy would not catch up so quickly.
At this moment, there was an exclamation in the direction of the ferry terminal, and many people pointed to the silhouettes flying in the sky with surprised expressions.
Under the public's gaze, Zhou Jing floated to the ground, flicking his sleeves, and lifted up some of the surrounding porters who wanted to bow down.
He looked around with elemental vision, frowning immediately.
At this moment, Ximendu is full of evil spirits everywhere, and I don't know how many people have been infected.
Not only the people at the docks, but also many boatmen and fishermen on the river are infected with dark evil spirits. At first glance, there are hundreds of places, but for a while, it is impossible to see who is the righteous master.
In addition, he also directly saw several evil spirits that were making trouble, like yellow dogs peeing everywhere, leaving traces in different places.
"As expected... It seems that I arrived in time, and Mei Zhanqing has not gone far."
Zhou Jing didn't change his face, he directly recited the gust of wind and attacked these evil ghosts.
These sinister ghosts had no power to fight back, screaming shrilly, smashed by the wind blade fused with spiritual power, and dissipated in the wind, like chopping melons and vegetables.
This technique of exorcising ghosts and subjugating spirits is already a good attack technique in this world's technique system, but it is useless when it comes to Zhou Jing.
Although Zhou Jing does not know how to exorcise evil spirits here, his mental power attribute is far higher than the normal level of people who practice in this world. question.
"Let me see, where will you be..."
After solving the chaotic ghost, Zhou Jing looked around on the spot, had a panoramic view of the evil spirits everywhere, and analyzed it in his heart.
Flying all the way, he already understood Mei Zhanqing's intention, that is, he wanted to delay the time for the pursuers to find her in this way.
If it were Wei Zifu, she would have escaped by the time she found the true master. It's a pity that when people encountered their flying, they quickly locked her whereabouts, and the plan fell through.
It's not that easy to lock Mei Zhanqing immediately after arriving at Ximendu Pier. Although she was definitely one of the evil spirits present, she did not have a clear escape route out of the city like before, and many evil spirits present might be targets.
However, you can directly filter out some of them... Since this Mei Zhanqing has to escape by water, it is unlikely that she will be on the dock, so it is most likely the evil spirits clinging to the boats on the river.
But these boats are moving, and there are many boats heading out of the port.
If you want to screen carefully, it is best to board the ship in person, otherwise it will be difficult to pinpoint which ship Mei Zhanqing is on. It's just that every ship will take some time. If you are unlucky and you don't find the right master many times in a row, it will be more difficult to find the next one... After all, the ship is moving, and it will go down the river when it leaves the port. It's not slow anymore, it's getting farther and farther away from Ning Tian.
Although he can fly, he also consumes mana. Although his second-order spiritual power exceeds the normal level of this world, it is far from being inexhaustible.
...so either fly ahead to defend the exit port and inspect every passing ship, or stop them and return them all to port.
The latter is the best, so Mei Zhanqing will have no way to escape.
Just as Zhou Jing was thinking about it, a team of ferry officers and soldiers rushed over.
"I don't know what the real Yufeng is here for?"
He was headed by the deputy commander of the prison camp of Ximendu, who knew Zhou Jing's appearance, and immediately handed over his hands to ask questions, with a respectful attitude.
Zhou Jing saw him, his eyes lit up, and he said:
"You came just at the right time. There is a demon girl in the city who is harming people. The government has been alerted, and the officials are hunting them everywhere. The poor Taoist chased after him and found that the demon girl was on the boat and wanted to escape by water."
"What happened?"
The deputy commander of the prison camp was stunned for a moment, but he had not yet received the news.
The incident happened suddenly, the news didn't spread so fast, and the government did not plan to close the city gate for this trivial matter, so no order came.
Zhou Jing raised his palm and bowed: "I hope to accommodate one or two, let the ferry guards raise their flags, and summon Jiang to board the boat and return to the port, and conduct a detailed inspection."
"This..."
The deputy commander of the Guardian Battalion hesitated.
Although he is willing to sell Zhou Jing's face, it is his duty to be stationed at Ximendu. It is somewhat inappropriate to follow the orders of an outsider who has no official and no rank. Moreover, he does not know the details of the matter, so he can't help but weigh it.
After thinking about it, the deputy commander of the prison camp decided to play the ball with one hand, and said:
"I'm willing to help the real person, but I can't control this matter. Why don't I report to the commander, and then send someone to ask the ferry guard."
"If this is the case, I'm afraid that the opportunity will be delayed."
Zhou Jing heard the words and knew that he could not count on the Ximendu defenders, so he had to put his mind out.
Although the other party is acting in accordance with the rules, but after the notification is over, Mei Zhanqing will run away early, and then let the boats that are not of the same batch return to the port, which is no different from carving a boat and seeking swords.
"It's still the poor way to make a move... Please stabilize the people at the dock. What the poor way will do next is just to catch the thief, so please don't misunderstand."
Zhou Jing shook his head, and without waiting for the deputy commander of the prison camp to ask questions, he suddenly rose into the sky and flew straight to the exit port.
Because the speed of the ship in the harbor is not fast, he easily overtakes the ships by flying by the wind.
The officers, soldiers and people on the pier, as well as the boatmen on the boats in the ferry port, were amazed to see Zhou Jing Yufeng fly over his head and fly out of the port.
"Is that the real Yufeng?"
"What is this real person doing?"
The crowd was amazed.
On the Wu Peng boat, the boatman who was swaying the oars also snorted and said excitedly: "Yo, that's not Lingfengzi! Sure enough, he was a god, and he stepped into Ningtian more than ten days ago, and I was watching from the ferry. I was so shocked that I couldn’t sleep all night, I went back and told my children, and they also said that I was dizzy.”
In the boat, Mei Zhanqing's face was like golden paper, and her condition was quite poor, and she seemed to be injured.
The ghosts of the sacrifice were destroyed, and she also suffered backlash, and her mind was hurt. She immediately guessed that Zhou Jing was chasing after her, and hiding in the awning did not dare to show up.
Hearing what the boatman said at this time, Mei Zhanqing's heart moved, and she managed to calm her tone, and asked, "Boatman, what is Master Yufeng doing at this time?"
The boatman did not suspect him, and replied: "Zhenzhen just flew over and landed on the river near the exit port, but he didn't know what to do."
Mei Zhanqing's heart sank immediately, and she only felt that she had guessed Zhou Jing's plan... This is to use the means of stepping on the river, to guard the river surface out of the port, and to check all the ships in the past?
'This Lingfengzi is really hateful and won't give me the slightest way to live! ’
Mei Zhanqing's eyes were cloudy and uncertain, and then she bit her silver teeth, revealing a sinister look on her face.
I didn't want to use this technique, but now I have to...
She adjusted her tone, and her tone suddenly became soft and seductive, whispering softly:
"Boatman, can you come in and talk, I have something to discuss~"
The boatman's heart swayed, and he felt as if this voice was the only thing left in his mind, and his soul was hooked. The ghost sent down the oars and got into the awning.
After a few seconds, the boat suddenly swayed a few times, and then quickly calmed down.
There was a rustling sound of changing clothes.
After a while, Mei Zhanqing walked out of the cabin. She had already changed into a ragged and coarse cloth, and also made a disguise. Her eyes were deeply wrinkled, and she was quite old-fashioned. She couldn't see her original beauty, and her face was sallow Skinny, she seemed to be a malnourished boatwoman.
The face can be disguised, but her body has lost weight in a very short period of time, leaving only skin and bones, without the original plump and attractive, but it is quite strange.
At this time, the original boatman also came out, and his eyes became dull and stupid.
"Master." Mei Zhanqing called softly.
"Mother... son?" The boatman responded in a daze.
"My husband has not recovered from his serious illness, let's rest, I'll just sail the boat."
Mei Zhanqing spoke softly, patted the boatman's neck casually, and removed a few silver needles as thin as ox hair from above.
The boatman nodded dumbly and returned to the cabin, but he actually obeyed Mei Zhanqing.
Mei Zhanqing stopped paying attention to the boatman, so she dared to look directly at Zhou Jing, who was standing on the river from the exit port in the distance, her eyes twinkling with fear and hatred.
'This time, the vitality has been severely damaged. If you can escape from life, there will be a great reward in the future! ’
She just used seductive art to seduce her soul and lead the boatman into the cabin.
Afterwards, Mei Zhanqing quickly made a move to restrain the boatman, and the overlord bowed hard.
First, the technique of yin and yang is used to capture the soul. When the yin and yang are combined, the needles are inserted into several acupoints of the boatman's brain to guide the yin into the brain. Obey the words, and the practitioner will die violently after at most one day.
Then she used another secret technique of harvesting and replenishing, pouring most of the magic tricks into the boatman's body, and then took the yang energy from the boatman, locked it into herself, and the secret method was dissolved to suppress the evil and temporarily suppress her yin. Evil Qi pulse... If you use your spiritual sense to look at her at this time, you can find that the evil spirit in her body has faded a lot.
This is to disguise Taoism in order to evade Zhou Jing's screening, and pretend to be an innocent person contaminated by evil spirits.
This technique is extremely detrimental to Taoism and greatly damages vitality and longevity. Once it is performed, it will immediately become indestructible, almost equivalent to scattered gong, with a maximum of 20 to 30% left in one's cultivation, which is a partiality under the way of harvesting and replenishing. The door evil method, called "Yin-Yang Reverse Fetal Transformation", is used to save lives.
Although the art of harvesting and replenishing is a method of cultivation that is extremely fast in entering the world, as long as you practice diligently, the lost Dao practice can be recovered in the future, but it will take at least a few years.
Mei Zhanqing is also used for the first time after her training. She has never been forced to such a situation before, and there is not much left after years of hard work.
So at this moment, her heart was bleeding and she was full of anger, but she didn't dare to show it on her face.
Mei Zhanqing held her breath, just waiting to pass through the port, pretending to be a boatman and a couple, and crossing the sea.
At this moment, however, she saw that Zhou Jing, who was standing on the river in front of him, suddenly folded his hands, and the whole person floated again.
Huhuhuhu——
The gust of wind came out of nowhere, whistling and rolling, blowing the water on the river below Zhou Jing into waves, spreading far and wide.
Just when she was puzzled, she suddenly saw a vortex appearing on the water surface in front of Zhou Jing.
The next moment, a tiny water column stretched out from the vortex, dancing wildly, like a young water dragon breaking out of the water.
Immediately afterwards, this young water dragon grew rapidly, getting higher and higher, spinning and whistling and gale force winds, the originally calm river surface was suddenly turbulent, as if a flood dragon was overturning the river and the sea underwater.
Crash-
Everyone's eyes follow, their eyes gradually rise, and their mouths grow bigger and bigger.
Under the horrified gazes of countless people on the pier and the river, the scene of the dragon absorbing water was born out of thin air!
Whoa, whoa-
I saw a waterspout swirling and moving on the river, stirring up the surging clouds and turning the sky.
The boat undulates violently with the waves, almost being sucked into it.
All ships quickly turned around ~IndoMTL.com~ to hide at the ferry terminal, all forced back into the port.
"Water from the blue dragon?! What kind of fairy is this!"
Mei Zhanqing threw herself on the boat, her hands and feet were cold, and an indescribable panic appeared on her face.
She was reluctant to accept the previous methods of Master Yufeng, but the magical power of the heaven and earth in front of her was beyond her understanding of magic, and it shattered the concept of her cultivation so far...
Is this a human resource? !
Such an unbelievable Taoism, it is impossible to achieve the "natural Taoism" mentioned by the old Niubi surnamed Wei!
The deputy commander of the prison battalion on the dock was already stunned on the spot, fighting with both sides, and almost immediately wanted to kneel and worship.
There are countless people in Ximendu, their faces are shocked, and they are all lost and speechless.
The immortals ride the wind, and the Qinglong rushes to the sky!
This shocking scene is deeply etched in the hearts of countless people, as if they will never be forgotten for a lifetime.
