Chapter 82: Life and Death at the Speed of Light (1)
My attitude was very strong, but the fact that I was being “petty and stubborn” was not the point, because in Boqie’s eyes, I was still someone who was imagining that I could live and that I was going to be taken away a large amount of blood.
Stupid and terrible, I guess this is all Boqie thinks of me, but the fact that this stupid person said that the essence of the blood was injured, he could not help but take it seriously. He must believe that Qiaolan did not hurt me, because he should believe in Qiaolan’s skills more, and his only concern was the Taoist practice that he did not understand very well.
The atmosphere seemed to have frozen. The palms of my hands holding the teacup were sweating. I was worried that I might drop it and break it.
I had to force myself not to tremble and not to let my face twitch.
Finally, when the atmosphere was already taut as a bowstring, about to shoot an arrow, Boqie spoke up. He said in a somewhat gloomy tone, “We can’t delay it any longer. Tomorrow, at most, I will come to see you tomorrow.”
I believe that he meant tomorrow morning. From the way he looked, there was no reason to delay. Who wouldn’t want to make their medicine better?
But Boqie would never let me off so easily. I guess I was too important to him. Before he turned around, he said to the two Miao people who had followed him in, “Send ten people to watch over this house. Watch every corner.”
Then he said to me, “Sorry, you just rest up. From now on, you can only stay in the house.”
I lowered my head, and a hint of gloom flashed in my eyes. Boqie, that old fox, didn’t really believe that I was faking insanity. He just didn’t dare to gamble with my precious essence.
My acquiescence was also a kind of submission. When the group hurried out of the house, I took a deep breath, carefully and carefully placed the teacup in my hand on the table, and then I couldn’t help but sit on the ground. Ling Ruoxue hugged me from behind for the first time, but she let go after just a short moment.Taoist priest
Soon ten Miao men came to our house, occupying every room in the house, every corner.
I don’t know if Boqie had given any other orders, but I, standing in front of the window, noticed that there were no fewer than twenty strong Miao men standing outside the house. This kind of situation could only be broken by the masters in martial arts novels, not by any real martial arts masters.
I casually exhaled a smoke ring, and under the hazy sky, a new bamboo wind chime hanging outside our room was making a not-so-crisp sound.
I made it when I was bored in the room.
I hope, Gao Ning, you won’t let me down. By chance, I saw Gao Ning’s figure waver in front of the window. Hmm, he is also one of the people responsible for guarding me.
In the afternoon, I, Huigen, Ling Ruxue slept soundly until dinner time under the surveillance of the Miao people. Ling Ruxue told me that she didn’t want to be alone in the same room with the Miao man, so she resolutely slept next to me.
I am not a gentleman, and I need to rest as well. Of course, I would not let the bed out, so I slept next to her like this.
When I woke up, the tips of her hair were just falling on my face, with a unique fragrance. I was stunned for a moment, thinking that if I could escape this disaster, could I wake up every morning in the fragrance of her hair tips?
But this is the unique hot and unrestrained style of the Miao people. Maybe sleeping together politely doesn’t mean anything. I organized my thoughts.
But when we were having dinner, Ling Ruxue said to me, “I’m afraid you won’t be able to hold on. I always feel better when I’m around you.”
What does she mean? But time was running out, and before I could think any more, it was already 12 o’clock in the morning.
It was midnight.
The three of us were in my room, including an uninvited guest, the Miao man who was spying on us.
But the three of us were in a relaxed mood, laughing and joking freely, ignoring the Hmong man. When the minute hand jumped past 12 o’clock, I suddenly touched Hui Gen’er’s head and said, “Go, hurry back.”
Huigen stretched himself out nonchalantly and stood up to walk outside. The Hmong man who was responsible for monitoring us was puzzled and asked, “Where is he going?”
I just laughed with Ling Ruxue and ignored him, while Huigen stared at the Hmong man with his round eyes and said, “Going to the toilet. Do you want to follow me?”
“No need, someone is watching over there.” The Hmong man was quite pleased with himself, and I couldn’t help but clench my fists when I saw it.
Less than a minute later, the Miao man’s shouts could be heard in the living room: “What are you doing, little boy?”
Hearing this, I stood up with my hands in my pockets and smiled. Ling Ruxue slightly shifted her body, which was originally standing in front of the window, to a position that was directly opposite the Miao man.
The Hmong man, who had been a little uneasy when he heard the commotion in the living room, stared at me and shouted, “Sit down!”
I shrugged my shoulders innocently and said, “Is it not allowed to stand up in the room? Don’t be nervous. Please smoke a cigarette.” As I spoke, I took a cigarette out of my pocket with one hand and handed it over.
The Miao man jumped away like a frightened mouse, yelling, “Sit down! I’m going to report to the great witch tomorrow. You haven’t practiced to recover at all. You’re just stalling.”
Well, if you don’t want to be polite, don’t blame me. I turned my hand and withdrew the cigarette from my hand, then clenched my fist and took a step forward, slamming it into his head.
The human head is very hard, so my fist hurts a lot, but only by hitting the head will this Miao man be knocked unconscious.
But the Hmong man did not faint as I had expected. Instead, he fell straight to the ground. Then I saw with my sharp eyes that a spider with a strange pattern was crawling on his face.
“So fast?” I guessed that the spider was a relative of Hua Feifei, but I was still amazed at Ling Ruxue’s speed. This was the first time she had fought in front of me.
Facing my helplessness, Ling Ruxue just looked out the window and said without even looking at me, “So slow.”
I smiled wryly, and at the same time, the temperature in the room suddenly dropped. I could hear the sound of crying, and the Hundred Ghost Spirit Trap was activated.
Hui Gen knew where the gate of the formation was and how to move around, so I naturally didn’t have to worry about him. All I had to do now was wait for him to return.
Looking at the still Miao man on the ground, I asked Ling Ruxue, “He won’t die, will he?”
“No, it’s just that within a day, he will be so sleepy that he won’t be able to swallow water on his own. But you, your Hundred Ghost Spirit Trap, do you have a hundred ghosts?” In the meantime, the spider had already mysteriously returned to Ling Ruxue’s palm. The scene of a beautiful woman and a spider, this scene, when I was young, Ling Ruyue had already performed it for me once, and I was very comfortable with it.
“If they are lucky, the old ghosts invited here may be just a few kittens, but if they are unlucky, there may be hundreds of old ghosts. It all depends on how many ghosts are killed here.” Yes, the Hundred Ghosts Confinement Array is a rather evil formation, gathering all the negative energy and spirits in one place, which can be described as killing without shedding blood.
I am afraid of the consequences, so I dare not take people’s names, and I dare not use Taoist magic to harm people. This time it is so malicious, so I will punish this evil and selfish village in the name of the Tao.
When I set up the formation, I no longer had any psychological burden, so I was very relaxed at the moment.
Outside the house, I could already hear the sound of crying, speaking in a language I didn’t understand, but it seemed like they were extremely scared. I hope you don’t die of fright. I lit a cigarette with ease.
Ling Ruxue looked at me and suddenly burst out laughing, saying, “Then they are doomed to bad luck.”
Yes, they are doomed to bad luck. How many ghosts have been trapped in this village for hundreds of years? I frowned slightly and said, “I hope that Huigen will be quick, otherwise we will only be able to pray that we grow four legs.”
Yes, with all the commotion inside the house, how could the guards outside not react? I saw many people rushing over and someone blowing a whistle to signal an alarm.
I believe that if we wait any longer, it won’t be these little cats and dogs that come looking for us, but old monsters like the old man Boqie.
At that moment, the voice of Hui Gen rang out from outside the door: “Brother, open the door quickly. If I’m bothered again, I’ll have to chant a sutra to drive away the ghosts.”
