Heavenly Dao Formula Chapter 55: Yuangui
In the evening, the prefect vacated an entire inn for their group to rest.
Looking at the table full of delicious food in the hall, Xia Fan couldn't give up any appetite.
"Come here to exchange their information and see what you have found." Zhang Shenping clapped his hands and said, "Time is not waiting for anyone. It's okay to talk while eating."
"Then, I'll come first." Yue Feng succinctly repeated the survivor's dictation, "In short, this person was panicked and did not see the evil spirit clearly, but confirmed that it can The container is instantly transferred to another container, and the size will not exceed a three-year-old child..."
After some exchanges, the six people basically reached an agreement.
The evil monster is not afraid of light, has a significant hostility to living things, is not too big, the chaotic characteristics are manifested as airborne actions, and the attack method is to pull the living thing into a narrow container, making it alive to be squeezed to death—— Judging from the degree of harm and abnormality, it should be a ghost.
A similar record can be found in the book "Records of All Evils" in the Privy Council.
"Yuangui".
Moves indefinitely, shaped like a ghost; where it is hidden, it is like an abyss.
"This judgment will be considered as qualified for you." Zhang Shenping nodded, "But if 10 is a perfect score, I can only give you five points at most."
"Why is this?" Wang Renzhi asked unexpectedly, "Could it be that there was some omission in the survey?"
"It's very simple. Yuangui is not affected by the sun. How do you know that it will not still be hidden in the crime scene?"
When came out, everyone shuddered.
Xia Fan suddenly remembered that Zhang Shenzheng stopped moving as soon as he entered the courtyard, and didn't mean to go to the house to take a look.
"I think you should have been close to the cabinet or a house that can hold things more than once? If it is still there, how many of you can come back alive?" He showed a cold smile and pointed his finger at Luo You'er." And you are the first to get out."
Luo Youer's face turned pale.
I told her to search... Xia Fan only felt a bit astringent in his mouth.
He didn't even think about this possibility at the time.
No wonder Master would say that if you are not fully prepared, you should never easily intervene in evil events.
"Then what is the correct way?" Wang Renzhi couldn't help asking.
"Of course it is to make others advanced." Zhang Shenzheng took a jujube and threw it into his mouth. "There are government servants in Gaoshan County, there are quick arrests, and there are so many residents, who can call anyone. There is no one. It’s not bad for the magistrate to cheat in."
"Are you... serious?"
"Remember! This is the safest way to do it before you have the ability to protect yourself!" His voice suddenly increased, "The alchemist only considers completing the Privy Council mission as the first consideration. If others can't solve the evil , Then you must protect yourself and let the ordinary people who can’t get angry create opportunities for themselves!"
"What if everyone is alchemist?" Shangguan Cai asked blankly.
"You already know the answer, don't you?" Zhang Shenpan stretched out his hand, "It is quite normal to have casualties in the battle with evil spirits."
This is really an exercise that is close to the real situation... Xia Fan said silently in his heart, no, it should be said that this is actual combat, at least the leader Zhang Shenzhen practically demonstrated what it means to save yourself.
Seeing that everyone’s expressions are not pretty, the God sentenced his hands down, "Don’t show such a solemn expression, I just want to deepen your memory, if the ghost is really hidden inside, I will naturally not sit idly by. Now that we have a goal, let’s discuss tomorrow’s ghost elimination plan."
"Tomorrow? What about tonight?"
"It’s okay. Hasn’t this innocent girl already confirmed the approximate range of movement of the ghost according to the wind-seeking technique? Although it can move quickly between containers, it cannot pinpoint the exact location, but the area where the smell spreads. I will not lie. I have asked Mrs. Hu to sprinkle spiritual fire powder around there, and at the same time evacuated the residents inside, it should be safe for one night."
The source of spiritual fire can not only be used as a primer for some alchemy, but also weaken the breath of living beings and interfere with evil judgments. This is also the knowledge Xia Fan learned after joining the Privy Council.
It turns out that when they were investigating, the other party was not idle.
"According to the records of "Zhu Xie Lu", the whereabouts of the ghost is unpredictable, and the container where it is located must be smashed to expose its true body before it can be killed." Zhang Shenzheng grabbed a handful of red dates, The dishes and dishes on the table were pushed aside, and then a dozen jujubes were used to quickly show the layout of the streets and houses where the crime occurred. "So instead of looking for it, let it come to us."
I took a map of a small half of the county seat in my head in one afternoon, and it turned out that none of the alchemists who could rise up were waiting for a while.
Xia Fan couldn't help but cast a high look at him.
Shenzhen finally stretched out his finger and pressed **** the center of the area-there also happened to be a big house in Gaoshan County. "Tomorrow night, we will set up an ambush here to lead it into the circle!"
Everyone rolled their throats in unison.
"Don’t be so nervous," he saw that no one responded, he shook his head and laughed, "Because of mental arithmetic and unintentional, evil creatures are just prey. You will know in the future that days with evil creatures are good days. !"
"What do you say?" Wei Wushuang asked in surprise.
"Boy, at first glance you are not clever enough. Civilian promotion depends on political achievements, what do we rely on? Isn't it the credit of these demons and evils? The greater the threat of evil, the greater the reward. If a local evil is caught Swept away, wouldn't the alchemist just sit in the mansion and waste time?"
"Master Zhang said~IndoMTL.com~We still need to go to the battlefield..."
"It was during the war. You were nervous even to deal with evil spirits, let alone dealing with alchemists? It was not a fight of the degree of the scholars, but a game of life and death." Zhang Shenzheng said that he closed his eyes. It seemed that I was in a reminiscence. After a moment, I took a deep breath and opened my eyes to look around at all the alchemists present. "Listen, evil spirits are not terrible. They have weaknesses and have no conscious mind. Even the most difficult ghosts. There is only the most basic instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, but people are different——"
"People, they are a hundred times more terrifying."
After he finished speaking, he laughed to himself.
After laughing, without waiting for everyone's reaction, he took the remaining dates into his arms, dropped the sentence "I like this", and walked upstairs with a wave of his hand.
"Everyone, take a good rest! By the end of tomorrow, you can be considered as a solid step on the way to promotion."
……
Shortly after returning to his room, Xia Fan heard a soft tap from the window.
opened the window, and saw a figure flashing into the house flexibly.
His hanging heart can be regarded as letting go.
"I was thinking before, what should you do if you get lost."
Li took off the hat and gave him a blank look. "The alchemist who just started, wants to get rid of me? Don’t forget my master, but--"
"It's Qingjian, I know." Xia Fan curiously asked, "How did you find this place? Isn't it based on the smell?"
"Do you think I am a dog?" Li showed a look of disgust, "You don't need to spend any thoughts to find you, just drag someone on the street, give two or three copper plates, and ask the whereabouts of the Jinxia city alchemist. Up."
This... is indeed a simple and effective tracking method, Xia Fan was amazed.
