Chapter 617 40
Mo Kui in the main house didn't know what was happening in the courtyard at this time.
After having a simple dinner with his family and making sure that they would not rush out to cause trouble, he carried the peach wood dagger, took out the tortoise shell compass given by his master, opened the west wing door and came to the courtyard.
"Remember my painting. Don't go out of the door tonight unless there are extremely special circumstances."
"It is the duty of my Yin-Yang disciples to catch ghosts and demons. Mortals who mistakenly enter the formation can only cause trouble. You can sleep quietly at home and wait for my good news."
After speaking, Mo Kui gently closed the door and stood in the middle of the courtyard.
Tonight is a windless night.
**
Every Yin-Yang mentor has his own working method.
Powerful evil spirits forcibly stay in the mortal world, and there must be a set of methods to continuously absorb the phantom energy. The weak will choose the corpse pit or ancient battlefield where a large number of mortals have died.
As for the powerful ghost king, he can set up magic arrays and prohibitions like a monk.
All disciples of the Yin-Yang School have a perception of ghost energy that is several times greater than that of ordinary people.
For some Yin-Yang teachers who pursue the ultimate perception ability, they will even seal their children into a dark underground cellar after birth, and use spiritual energy to stimulate their spiritual consciousness when they are just born.
In this way, they can cultivate their ability to perceive the outside world with spiritual consciousness from an early age, rather than relying on their eyes.
This will have a miraculous effect of getting twice the result with half the effort for capturing invisible evil spirits.
The lineage of Gui Huzi emphasizes the use of the free ghost energy in the surrounding environment to set up arrays and use ghost energy to fight ghost energy.
Although Mo Kui is an abandoned disciple of the sect, he has been with his master for more than 10 years. He has mastered most of the techniques in the sect, and he is good at drawing spells and making prohibitions.
He took out the tortoise shell compass inherited from the Spring and Autumn Period.
Half relying on perception and half relying on the compass, Mo Kui walked and stopped, and finally came to the wine cellar in the basement of the main house.
All the islands around the Aegean Sea are rich in grapes. Different grapes grow in different regions and have slightly different flavors. After sufficient fermentation, it is more obvious.
For the nobles, it is impossible to open the door to welcome guests without a few bottles of fine wine in the wine cellar. It is not difficult to see that the Nicholson family spent a lot of money to build this underground wine cellar after buying this property.
Although the wine cellar is underground, it is not blocked. A row of vents is cleverly left on the cracks in the wall above the head along the texture of the exterior carving of the house. After hanging the hurricane lamp on the wall, you can see a huge mural of the Roman god of wine Bacchus entertaining the king of gods carved on the goose yellow marble wall.
Even though no one has lived there for more than 70 years, the marble with a tight texture is still smooth and translucent, and there is no sign of decay.
All the wine stored in the wine cellar has long disappeared, leaving only rows of dark wine racks made of thick iron pine wood. Mo Kui closed his eyes and carefully sensed the looming phantom energy in the wine cellar.
Finally, he stood in front of a worn-out linen ancient painting.
In the Middle Ages, the painting techniques of China and the West were different, and the materials used were also different. Eastern painters preferred wood pulp paper and rock pigments. Grind the colorful stones into powder, then add some auxiliary materials such as glutinous rice powder, gold and silver powder, and finally blend them with water.
The national strength of the Western Continent is not as good as that of the Tang Dynasty in the East, and it is impossible to be so luxurious in the art of painting, so they are used to using plant pigments, extracting colorful juices and blending them with shell powder.
Then draw on linen cloth.
No one has lived in it for 72 years, and the worn-out linen cloth is full of wormholes. Despite this, Mo Kui can still clearly see the graphics drawn on the cloth.
It is a scroll of the Holy Lord Christ reading the Book of Blessings.
90% of Western paintings in the Middle Ages were based on myths and legends or religious stories. Placing such a scroll in the wine cellar shows that the designer's original intention was to add some color to the monotonous wine cellar.
72 years ago, the Crusaders broke into the Nicholson mansion and killed all the tribesmen, and then emptied the entire manor. This linen painting survived not because it was placed in the wine cellar, but because such paintings were simply numerous in the Church of the Holy Lord.
Perhaps because the canvas was standing with the Holy Lord Christ with his back against the halo, the Crusaders did not destroy it, but let the scroll remain. It has been hanging in the wine cellar on the first floor of the basement until today.
Mo Kui could vaguely sense that the place where the looming spiritual energy gathered in the entire mansion was this linen painting.
According to the Yin-Yang School, this scroll is the center of the entire formation.
He stretched out his dry hands and gently stroked the worn scroll on the wall.
"No magic array can keep running freely for more than 70 years."
"If you hide behind this door, you must have a unique way to replenish the energy of the array."
Mo Kui followed the "Yin Yang Mentor" Gui Huzi to travel around the world for 10 years. He has seen many evil gods and evil spirits, and knows how to subdue these demons that should not exist in this plane under various circumstances.
He closed his eyes and carefully recalled the forbidden array he set up around the manor in his mind, making sure there were no omissions.
He took out a talisman with complex spells drawn on it from his arms and muttered something.
The Seven Yuan Lords of the Big Dipper, the Great Saint God of Tiangang, the Great Dharma King Lixie, Tianzhen protects me, clears the road to the three realms, and illuminates the Beiyou Palace
Mo Kui could no longer recall how many years ago he last cast a spell, but once he spoke, he found that he actually remembered every word of the obscure formula.
As the formula continued to be recited, pure spiritual energy gathered on his two fingers, and the spell was ignited with a bang.
After the red flames spurted out for no reason, he casually threw the spell onto the ancient painting. The Holy Lord Christ holding the Bible in the painting immediately burned into a black hole.
As the painting was engulfed by the flames, a dark hole suddenly appeared on the wall where the ancient painting was hung.
"It's here
It's here!"
"I hope that the skills I learned in my youth have not been returned to my master."
Taking a deep breath, Mo Kui pulled out the peach wood dagger on his back. A familiar and unfamiliar touch came, and he raised his left foot and was about to step into the dark hole, when two black winds suddenly rushed out, accompanied by a cold and cold laugh that penetrated into the bones.
Mo Kui raised the rune wood sword and chanted again.
The long-skulled giant beast, holding the Emperor Bell, the three gods Su Xiao, strictly driving Kui Long, the mighty sword god king, slaying evil and destroying all traces. . . .
Accompanied by a scorching flame blooming from the peach wood ancient sword, the two black smokes that had just condensed into human shapes realized that they were defeated and fled in all directions.
Mo Kui was not surprised by the escape of the evil spirit.
He had already arranged a forbidden formation in the courtyard, turning the entire Nicholson mansion into a huge maze.
Not only that, he also used the "Rebirth Talisman" to cover up the breath of all living people in the manor. As long as the evil spirits did not devour the souls of the living, their abilities would not be too powerful.
Lifting the flame wood sword, Mo Kui followed the cold breath out of the wine cellar.
However, as soon as he entered the main house, he immediately said inwardly that it was not good.
Within the maze restriction, he actually sensed several breaths belonging to living people.
These living people are not ordinary people. ,
Each of them is a chosen one with sufficient spiritual energy!
In a sense, they are the best food to feed evil spirits!
