Gu Yu introduced Lin Xixue into the main hall, took two pieces of copper from the altar table and folded them into a strange clam-shell-shaped magical instrument, struck it with a copper rod, then clapped his hands three times at the statue, and lit the brazier in the hall.
Then he bit off his fingertips, took the yellow paper from the table, and drew some awkward symbols that looked unfamiliar.
After drawing the symbols, he put the yellow paper into the brazier, clasped his hands together, and recited a mantra that Lin Xixue could not understand.
However, although Lin Xixue could not understand what he was reciting, she had indeed seen a scene similar to this scene before - when the former Great Witch Zhu invited the master, the process of this ceremony was almost the same.
Looking at this posture, could it be that the embroidery lady wants to talk to her personally?
Sure enough, after Gu Yu finished reciting the incantation, his whole body twitched like an electric shock, leaving only the whites of his eyes, but the next moment his eyes returned to their original positions.
Gu Yu stood up, his whole aura seemed different, his body and posture showed some softness, it was obvious that the embroidery lady had arrived.
He looked at Lin Xixue, with a complicated look on his face, sighed quietly, and said, "Tell me, what do you want to do with this soul-inducing technique?"
Lin Xixue told the whole story of the incident and did not hide anything.
He frowned and said, "I really don't know much about the soul-inducing art you mentioned, but I do know another witchcraft."
"Wrong, these beings didn't pay attention to this world at that time."
"Oh, thanks to 'Shangzhen', I'm not dead yet!" The embroidery lady emphasized the word 'Shangzhen' very hard, obviously she was playing tricks on her again.
"Yes, that's not right. To be precise, only Wujiang has left this witchcraft inheritance, while the witchcraft inheritance in the other states has either evolved into other miraculous arts, or been completely cut off." Embroidery Lady explained.
road.
In this way, this world is even more elusive. She asked: "Why did this world already have two ways of practice before the strange invasion?"
Lin Xixue quickly came to her senses, raised her hands and said, "Can I give you some advice?"
"Is that so?" Lin Xixue was extremely surprised. The embroidery lady's answer completely overturned her understanding.
"The specific time is unknown, but it is true that a long, long time ago, a group of people discovered that worshiping some special beings can gain some incredible power."
The embroidery lady ignored her confusion and continued to explain: "Back to the topic, this soul-inducing technique is essentially a variant of witchcraft."
Assuming that the embroidery lady didn't intend to give advice to him, there was actually no need to let him in from the beginning, let alone use Gu Yu's body to talk to him in person.
"With your little magic power now, of course I don't believe it." He sneered, "But since my husband said he was willing to believe you, then just let him."
She couldn't help but think of the petrified civilian and military generals she had seen in the cold river before; and then she thought of how the master looked like a general and marshal galloping on the battlefield.
"So, these incredible existences are monsters like Tianzun and Leizu?" Lin Xixue concluded.
Later, the way of heaven was eroded and corrupted by strange beings such as Tianzun and Leizu, forming another cultivation system based on incense.
Lin Xixue suddenly remembered that she was indeed filled with sadness that day. She knelt in front of the statue of the Embroidery Lady and vowed to kill the Heavenly Lord. But had she made such a grand ambition unintentionally?
"Hmph!" The embroidery lady snorted coldly, "If you hadn't made such a great ambition that day and made me think that you are not hopeless, do you think I would let you go?"
"Although I don't understand the art of attracting souls, I know a little bit about the witchcraft called 'The Return of Souls'."
He would never be so idle that he would just be angry at himself just for the sake of being weird when he saw him.
Lin Xixue was so smart that she naturally understood the implication of the embroidery lady's words.
"Witchcraft?" When Lin Xixue heard the name, she couldn't help but think, "Could it be related to Wujiang?"
Could it be that the embroidery queen has some magical power that can spy on her inner thoughts?
The embroidery lady saw her expression changed drastically and could not guess what she was thinking. She added: "On the day my husband disappeared, you knelt in front of me and made great ambitions. Of course I knew."
Lin Xixue fell into deep thought again, and the embroidery lady's answer once again subverted her cognition.
Lin Xixue fell silent again, not because of the embroidery lady's strange aura, but because the information she received today was so shocking that she couldn't find a reasonable explanation for a while.
That's why in this world there are immortal sects like Lantau Mountain, as well as various Taoist temples, and behind each temple there is a strange being.
"Is this master still alive?" Lin Xixue was overjoyed when she heard this and asked immediately.
This is how she understood the structure of this world before. The way of heaven in this world was originally the standard way of heaven in the fairy world.
"Big ambitions?"
"First you killed my husband, demolished my temple, and then destroyed the token I left for you. Why should I give you advice?"
"Tell me, why should I give you advice?" The embroidery lady pressed against Gu Yu's body, her eyebrows raised, and she sneered again and again.
"Without it, when you kill Tianzun in the future, you will share half of his incense power with me."
"Could it be that before these weird invasions, this world could have gained power by worshiping its ancestors?" Lin Xixue revised her speculation.
"Yes, it's not stupid." The embroidery lady said sarcastically.
"Can you please clear up your doubts?"
When Lin Xixue heard this, her heart tightened and her face could not help but stiffen. She had never told anyone else that she wanted to kill Tianzun. How did the Embroidery Lady know?
"I wonder what your Majesty's orders are?"
Lin Xixue nodded, understanding that it was for this reason that she was able to leave safely that day, but she changed the subject and said, "Is your Majesty really believing that I can kill the monster Tianzun?"
"You ask me who I am asking. I am just a dead person who happened to absorb the power of incense and wish. Do you think I am a real god who knows everything?" The embroidery lady seized the opportunity again and said something negative to her.
"This group of people summarized the methods of offering sacrifices and offerings to obtain strength, which formed the earliest witchcraft. This group of people was also called 'witches' by the tribesmen, and among them the people with the strongest witchcraft power
, that is the great witch."
Therefore, the implication of this statement is obviously that it is okay to teach yourself the art of soul return, but it is by no means free of cost.
But according to what the embroidery lady said, before the world was eroded by strangeness, there was already a way to gain power through worship?
Lin Xixue could only smile bitterly. Although the embroidery lady had never stopped yin and yang, it was easy to understand that she had deep resentment in her heart, so she had to bear it silently.
"If I can really kill the monster Tianzun in the future, I will definitely give half of the incense absorbed by the monster to the queen!"
Hearing this, the embroidery lady threw her an animal skin scroll and a yellowed ancient painting, and said: "What is recorded on the animal skin is the witchcraft of the soul's return. You can understand it yourself."
Lin Xixue held the animal skin and rubbed it in her hands, frowning involuntarily.
