Exorcism - Chapter 1071 Frozen Cutoff
Luanjing Mountain in the south is only slightly cold, while Duanliu City in the north is already covered in silver. The cold wind blows, and the broken snow sweeps across the ground like wild sand.
There are no dilapidated towers here – Mu Xingqiu guessed that the memories in the inner elixir must come from here – the whole city looks new and complete, having escaped the Five Elements disaster more than two years ago, but this lucky city The city has no inhabitants because it is completely frozen.
Six or seven feet of ice and snow wrapped Duanliu City tightly without any gaps. Standing at the west city gate and pushing hard with your feet, you could slide all the way to the opposite east city gate.
Three visitors were floating in the air, looking down at the city.
“Have we come to the wrong place? Is this really Duanliu City?” Yin Buchen asked in surprise.
Qing Lingshuang hummed. This was not the Duanliu City in her memory, but the location was definitely the same. She even saw the lake beside the city that she had created when she broke the pill, which was now occupied by ice and snow and was level with the ground.
“That means we came too early. There are still eight or nine months before the Nascent Soul Conference.” Yin Buchen smiled and shook his head, “Zuo Liuying really knows how to choose a place. Isn’t ‘Duanliu City’ the place to cut him off?” Well, haha, it’s interesting, it’s a good omen for us. Is this ice magic? Maybe Zuo Liuying and his minions are just enjoying the fun and enjoying themselves.”
Yin Buchen rubbed his belly. He had only eaten two meals in nearly half a month, and they were both half full.
Mu Xingqiu also had to eat and drink, but only Qin Lingshuang didn’t. The true and illusory body did not eat the fireworks of the world. It only needed to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth every once in a while. These spiritual energy were not used to sharpen the inner elixir, but to infiltrate the flesh and bones of the whole body.
Qing Lingshuang landed on Xizhao Lake, and cast a spell to brush away a piece of snow, revealing the ice surface. The ice here was very pure, and you could see frozen fish and shrimps several feet below. If you went deeper, you would need to use your third eye.
“Let’s stay here and try to remove the influence of Demon Lord’s dharma.”
Mu Xingqiu nodded in agreement, and Yin Buchen even cheered. This was the purpose of following him.
“I’ll go to the city to take a look. Maybe I can find Zuo Liuying’s lair.” Yin Buchen knew how to play by ear. Every time he stopped to rest, he would find an excuse to leave, leaving Mu Xingqiu and Qin Lingshuang alone.
Yin Buchen jumped into the city and disappeared soon. Qin Lingshuang summoned a large light mirror and wanted to use it to build a shelter on the ice. Mu Xingqiu was unable to help and wandered around nearby.
He had heard some past events about Duanliu City, and knew that this place had a great relationship with him. He had fought against the monsters here and won the title of “General Mu”, but what he saw and heard at this moment could not help but make him doubt the past. How meaningful is the battle? It was like the merging of two groups of ants. As a result, just after the war ended, there was a flood that destroyed everything.
Where are the humans protected by “General Mu”?
He strolled to the city wall and looked up to see a few lines of words carved on the ice, which were not very clear: Mu Dong’er and the Boy’s Army came and went, Zuo Liuying and Kun Chao had the courage to come out and fight with us.
Mu Xingqiu smiled slightly, took out the Patriarch’s Pagoda, turned around, and stood facing the wind. After a while, he felt like writing. He poked the Patriarch’s Pagoda three times in the wind and wrote three talismans.
One talisman goes away with the wind, one talisman goes against the wind, and one talisman hovers high in the sky.
Qin Lingshuang walked from the lake. Behind her, two strange houses had been built with magic. They were two oval mirrors seven feet high, standing side by side. The mirror surfaces were extremely smooth, but they did not reflect any scenery. They were like two portals. , those with permission can indeed step in. Inside are two typical practice rooms.
This is Qin Lingshuang and Mu Xingqiu’s room. Yin Buchen can cast spells to build houses.
Qing Lingshuang asked from a distance: “Why are you looking at me like that? It seems you don’t recognize me again.”
“It’s rare to see you walking.”
Qin Lingshuang was always flying around, and occasionally she would only take a few steps back and forth when she landed. This time she walked from a mile away, which was considered the longest walk.
She turned around and took a look. There were only Mu Xingqiu’s footprints on the white snow, not hers. She consciously increased her strength, and only shallow footprints appeared on the next road.
“Are you looking for strange beasts?” Qin Lingshuang recognized the talisman written by Mu Xingqiu in the wind.
“Well, I want Yin Buchen to tame a strange beast as soon as possible so that he can contact Mu Dong’er and the others.” Mu Xingqiu pointed to a few lines of writing on the ice wall.
“You couldn’t do such a thing when you were at your most naughty. The demon soul began to take effect in Mu Dong’er’s body.” Qing Lingshuang stopped, her cheeks slightly red due to the cold wind, like a layer of light rouge. , “Your talisman skills are getting more and more strange, and you can actually write talismans in the wind.
“I thought it was a common spell.”
“It’s not ordinary at all. The Five Elements Spell can indeed draw on the power of nature, but the talisman…” Qin Lingshuang smiled slightly, “You should keep it like this. Maybe this is Zuo Liuying’s purpose.”
Mu Xingqiu and Qin Lingshuang both have strong sensitivity to magic. They could not detect any signs of magic in the frozen city before, so they did not go in to check. Unexpectedly, Yin Buchen encountered an accident.
Qing Lingshuang raised her hand and wiped it in the air. The city walls and houses in front of her became transparent, and the two of them could directly see Yin Buchen.
Yin Buchen was sitting in the kitchen of a house. There were many broken ice cubes scattered in front of him, and a piece of dough that had been stored for an unknown period of time. He obviously encountered something strange while looking for food.
Yin Buchen blinked twice quickly, feeling Qin Lingshuang’s spell through his crystal eyes, and pointed to the stove pit in front of him, “What got in?”
It can frighten a monster to the ground. It shouldn’t be an animal like a snake or rat, but it’s hard to say if it applies to Yin Buchen.
“You stay and look after the house, I’ll go take a look.”
Qin Lingshuang hummed clearly, and Mu Xingqiu ran to the city gate, put a little force on his feet, and slid into the city.
After turning a few corners, Mu Xingqiu found Yin Buchen. He had already stood up and was smelling the dough carefully. When he saw Mu Xingqiu, he smiled and said, “It’s not bad. The freezing here must have come suddenly.” ”
“What exactly is it?”
“The freshly kneaded dough can be eaten after roasting it over a fire… Oh, Tao Zun is talking about that thing. It seems to be a monkey. It’s not big, about three feet tall. It’s quite thin and has scary big eyes. Tao Zun, Don’t laugh at me, those eyes are really weird, especially when they flicker in the stove pit.”
“Is it a demon?”
“No, I can recognize the demon clan…it has a bit of demonic aura, but it’s not a demon, I’m sure.”
“Exotic beast?”
“Hmm…” Yin Buchen looked confused.
There was no wind, magic or obvious emotions in the room. The air was almost stagnant and could not be used to write talismans. Mu Xingqiu summoned a real talisman paper from the treasure bag and tapped it lightly with the Patriarch Pagoda. With this point as the center, the light red pattern quickly spread to all sides, forming a complete talisman in an instant, like words and pictures, like steaming clouds and lofty mountains.
“Dao Zun is really amazing. I don’t think you knew how to make talismans at all back then. How long have you been able to make a talisman in just one click? Those talisman masters have worked hard all their lives and never had this ability.” Yin Buchen took the opportunity to flatter, “But how did you do it? Sacrificing talismans? I heard that high-level talisman masters have fire-sacrifice seals on their backs, but Taoist priests cannot have them because it will damage the inner elixir.”
Mu Xingqiu rolled up the sleeve of his right hand and put a yellow copper ring above his elbow, with a circle of fiery red thread flashing in the middle.
“It turns out that Taoist Master wrote the Fire Sacrifice Seal on the magic weapon. It’s a wonderful move, but ordinary Taoist priests can’t do this, right? Haha, I knew that Taoist Master’s magic was not ordinary.” Yin Buchen tried his best to praise, but His thousands of words are not as good as someone’s encouraging look.
Mu Xingqiu held out the paper talisman in his hand, and a stream of green smoke fell from his hand to the ground, quickly extended and got into the stove pit.
“Catch the monkey!” Yin Buchen said excitedly, still holding the dough as hard as a stone in his hands, “Torture it, no, roast it over the fire and eat it, no, its meat is too little, stew it in soup! What’s going on here? There is nothing missing, just throw a piece of ice into the pot…”
As expected, there was still a hole in the stove pit. The green smoke was moving forward very quickly. Yin Buchen was still chattering. Mu Xingqiu had already noticed that the other end of the green smoke was entangled with a living thing. He immediately withdrew the spell with all his strength. He could only hear the sound of billiard balls under the ground. There was a random noise, and Yin Buchen rubbed his hands in excitement.
Not long after, Qing Yan retracted from the stove pit, and a strange animal was wrapped around the end. It was barking and clawing, trying to break free.
It does look like a monkey, with fur all over, a sharp beak, no cheeks, and no tail. It stands like a human. It is less than three feet tall and has two big eyes, but it is not as scary as Yin Buchen described it. On the contrary, there are several Very pitiful.
“What is this? A child abandoned by humans?” Yin Buchen asked doubtfully, and suddenly his eyes lit up, “I haven’t eaten human flesh for a long time… No, no, I quit. Ever since I followed Taoist Master, I have I quit human flesh, really, I just miss it occasionally.”
Mu Xingqiu once saw a large number of monkeys underground in Ice City, and even had a fight, killing many of them. These memories are now with Qin Lingshuang.
“Transform into a demon? Is this guy worthy of being a demon? Even a beast is not qualified.” Yin Buchen said in disgust.
“Can earth monkeys be used as exotic animals?” Mu Xingqiu asked.
“You can try it.” Qing Lingshuang’s voice disappeared.
Yin Buchen blinked again and forced a smile on his face, “Dao Zun, what do you mean by this?”
“You are a beast master and need exotic beasts.”
Yin Buchen’s expression suddenly became extremely distressed, “Taoist Master, please don’t. All the strange beasts tamed by the Beast Master have their origins. My last strange beast was one of only three Xuanwu in the world. This one The earth monkey… the stupid lion in Fuhuang City is stronger than it.”
The monkeys were grinning at them in turn, without any dignity at all.
“I need you to get in touch with Mu Dong’er and the others as soon as possible.”
“Okay.” Yin Buchen reluctantly agreed, and had to agree, but he could act shamelessly in front of Tao Zun.
Yin Buchen cast the spell for a while and said softly: “Let it go, Taoist Master.”
The green smoke disappeared, and the monkey turned around and rushed towards the stove pit. He only took one step and stopped. He slowly turned around to face Yin Buchen with a dazed expression.
About a quarter of an hour later, Yin Buchen took back his spiritual skills and sighed, “When Feixiao abandoned me, I swore to find a more powerful beast than him, alas.”
The monkey walked up to Yin Buchen and looked up at him timidly. He stretched out his hand to touch him but didn’t dare.
“I just need to cast a spell with you, and then get out of here.” Yin Buchen picked up the monkey with one hand and started to contact other beast masters.
This time it took longer. Yin Buchen muttered, “No, neither is this one, and there is no direction. It’s really hard to find… Feixiao was ungrateful, but he also got his retribution. Mu Dong’er didn’t take it at all. Take it seriously…”
Yin Buchen put down the monkey and said with a hint of horror: “Kun, Kun… Patriarch, I have contacted the Patriarch!”
