Master
Chapter 52 Master
As soon as Liu Jiao hesitated, Zhao Qi frowned and shouted at several soldiers in the yard, driving them to move the incense table, candlesticks, and altars to the yard, and asked other soldiers to go door to door on the street to inform people to stay at home.
Some soldiers listened to him obediently, some went to see Liu Jiao, and Liu Jiao asked Zhao Qi to wait for Chen Xin to come back before making a decision, which made Zhao Qi's face turn pale and he looked like he was about to curse.
Fortunately, Chen Xin came back with his men at this time, and Li Wuxiang finally saw Zeng Jianqiu's appearance after being dealt with by Zhao Qi - there were more sword wounds and blood marks on his body, he was tied up tightly, a talisman paper was pasted on his forehead, and except for the clothes on his lower body, he was stripped naked, and there was no place to hide anything.
Li Wuxiang looked at him. Zeng Jianqiu was originally squinting weakly, and when his eyes met his eyelids slightly lifted, he knew that this guy's weak appearance was all pretended, and he didn't know what fatal means he had prepared.
Which sect is this person from? What kind of skills is he practicing? This vitality is simply too strong.
Zhao Qi saw Chen Xin and immediately shouted: "Don't you want this town anymore? An evil spirit appeared last night. If you don't perform a ritual, there will be more. Why are you still dawdling here!?"
Chen Xin hurriedly smiled and apologized: "Master, calm down, calm down. This is not because we are ignorant... It's just that the town has not done such things as descending gods for so many years. Otherwise, I will go and discuss it with the elders and villagers..."
"Discuss? What have you done before?" Zhao Qi frowned and scolded, "I will tell you the next day after I came here, tiger bones, tiger bones! I tell you, don't blame me for not being able to protect you when evil spirits appear in the town - do you believe that if you delay for a while, your town will immediately be in trouble with ghosts?"
He seemed to have no time to care about his demeanor at this time. When he spoke, saliva splashed. Li Wuxiang quickly stepped back two steps, careful not to let the saliva splash on his skin.
But when he stepped back, he saw Zhao Qi's hand. His left hand had been behind his back since he had ordered Liu Jiao to do something. At this moment, Li Wuxiang saw clearly that he seemed to be holding a piece of talisman paper in his hand, and there was a slight smell of blood.
Has he started to perform a ritual now?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Chen Xin was about to continue to smile and say a few more words, when he suddenly heard a few noises coming from outside the Chen family's door. It seemed that a group of people came to the gate of the courtyard and wanted to break in, and the town soldiers were blocking them. Chen Xin raised his head and frowned and looked over. At this time, Li Wuxiang found that Zhao Qi's brows were relaxed and he shouted at the door: "What happened outside?"
After hearing what he said, the shouting outside suddenly rose a little. Others could hear it vaguely, but Li Wuxiang heard it clearly - people in the town said that the house was haunted.
There were about ten people coming, and it sounded like two families. One family said that the tiles on their roof were shaking, and the dust was falling into the house. When they went out to check, they didn't see any cats or mice, so they were afraid that there was a ghost.
Another family said that the small wooden statue of the Kitchen God on their stove had been falling down from the niche since a while ago. It had been put up several times, and the inside of the niche had always been flat, but it was as if it was blown by a gust of evil wind and fell immediately after it left the sight.
If this happened in normal times, at most they would be worried and scared, and recite a few words to see if they could send away some unclean things. But yesterday I heard that Chen Sanyao's house was haunted, and today I encountered this kind of thing again. After asking the neighbors around, I found that several families had similar situations. I immediately panicked and went to Chen's house to ask the immortal master what was going on.
Chen Xin had to go out to see. After listening to the group of people talking and talking, he was about to comfort them, but people from the town came from afar. He immediately asked the soldiers at the door to stop them, and walked back with a look of astonishment on his face.
Zhao Qi didn't wait for him to speak, and smiled coldly: "You know now? Do you still want to discuss it?!"
Chen Xin frowned and thought for a while, then looked at Li Wuxiang, sighed and ordered the soldiers around him: "Go and prepare quickly, find out everything the immortal master wants... Drive the people away, you guard the yard well, no one is allowed to come in! And, immortal master, this person, immortal master, are you going to give him to..."
Zhao Qi glanced at Zeng Jianqiu and waved his hand impatiently: "Don't worry, he won't die, and I won't kill him in your house! Humph, you are pretending, did you beg for it when you took over this place?"
Chen Xin perfunctorily responded twice, looked at Zeng Jianqiu tied on the ground, and walked away.
He didn't seem to be at ease with what Zhao Qi wanted to do. Li Wuxiang opened his mouth slightly and took a step towards him. Chen Xin was not a suitable candidate for cooperation, but he planned to remind him a little, so that if the worst happened, he should be prepared.
But Chen Xin's eyes only swept across his face, frowned slightly, and immediately strode into the house.
This made Li Wuxiang stunned for a moment. At this time, Chen Xin was completely different from the old farmer who had pulled him to talk to him in a friendly manner. The glance just now was full of the majesty of a superior. But why did he glance at him like that?
When Chen Xin entered the house, Liu Jiao came up to him and was about to talk to him, but he lowered his voice and frowned and asked: "Where is Xiu Xiu?"
"Still asleep, outside..."
Chen Xin strode to the door of his wife's room, raised his hand and knocked a few times, and seeing that there was no movement inside, he immediately asked Liu Jiao to go in and pull her out of bed. Chen Xiu was sleeping groggily, and there were red marks on her face from the pillow. Liu Jiao asked him what was wrong.
But Chen Xin ran to his room and found two daggers, and put one in the hands of his wife and daughter: "You two quickly go out through the back window and go to the Xue family in the east. The little girl of the Xue family said that Zhao Qi gave I gave her a talisman to keep her safe - Xiuxiu, you didn't offend her a few days ago, right?"
Chen Xiu was still in a dazed state, but she had mostly sobered up after seeing her father like this: "I...I...well, let me think about it, no, I was helping her clean the yard, and she said she would make candies for me in the future. eat."
"That's good, go quickly!"
He pulled his wife and daughter to the door of the back window, and Liu Jiao had time to grab his arm: "What's wrong with the head of the house? Didn't Zhao Qi say he wanted to do an exorcism in our house? Isn't this very dangerous?"
Chen Xin hesitated, then pulled her away a few steps: "Do you remember what I told you yesterday that when I was young, an immortal master once accepted me as his disciple, and I stayed with him for a month or two? "
"Ah...remember, what happened?"
Chen Xin glanced out the window - in front of Zhao Qi, the incense table with candles and various tributes had been set up, while Zeng Jianqiu was tied up and placed behind the incense table, sitting upright. He was covered with a big red cloth, and outside the red cloth was a snake skin. A freshly cut cockscomb was placed on the top of his head, and a tiger bone was hung on his chest.
Zhao Qi was using rooster blood to outline his face, and in the blink of an eye, he was painted into the face of the Stove Lord worshiped by Jin Shui.
Chen Xin pointed outward: "That's the master I was talking about."
The second update is at 8am.
