Chapter one hundred and sixty-ninth scorpion half-attached
Just be ugly, Xu Zhiqiong doesn't mind it, just cover your face with your hair.
The key is to be able to move.
Xu Zhiqiong tried to use magic to drive the puppet, but the puppet could only do one action - run!
In the process of making the puppet, Xu Zhiqiong omitted a lot of craftsmanship. The upper part was very sloppily made, and only the legs were worked on. Every joint was put into great effort.
It's a pity that this puppet can't run very well, it's swaying this way and that, and its body is extremely uncoordinated.
None of this matters, what matters is running fast.
Xu Zhiqiong spent a whole day training the speed of the puppet, and until late at night, he was almost satisfied.
The exhausted Xu Zhiqiong wanted to have a good sleep, but he didn't expect that Shi Xun led people to the deep prison in the middle of the night.
Hearing the sound of the door, Xu Zhiqiong calmly put away the puppet and continued to pretend to sleep.
Shi Xun pushed away the small house, and Xu Zhiqiong pretended to wake up, stood up and saluted: "I have seen Qianhu."
"Xu Hongdeng," Shi Xun hurriedly stepped forward to help, "you have worked hard these days."
Xu Zhiqiong said with a smile: "It's hard work to eat and sleep here all day long."
Next to Shi Xun was another person, Zou Shunda, a member of the Criminal Department.
Zou Shunda looked at Xu Zhiqiong with a cold expression. The member of the criminal department, Wailang, was from the fifth rank, and the red lamp man was from the sixth rank. Xu Zhiqiong was one level lower than him. He cupped his fists and saluted Zou Shunda first, and Zou Shunda returned the salute hastily.
The three of them exchanged polite words, and Zou Shunda went to the cell to see the prisoners.
Entering the cell, Zou Shunda saw Shi Shuangliu's face covered in blood and asked why.
Xu Zhiqiong said with anger on his face: "This shrew insulted me last night. Her foul language was unbearable. I beat her in anger, maybe I was a bit harsh."
Zou Shunda said: "Xu Denglang is so majestic, and he is not merciless to a woman!"
Shi Xun said from the sidelines: "She should be beaten, she should be beaten. This shrew has lost her conscience and harmed a whole family. She deserves to be beaten to death!"
Zou Shunda sneered: "Don't really beat him to death. He is still waiting to be punished tomorrow. If anything goes wrong, we won't be able to bear it."
Shi Xun smiled and said, "Zou is too worried."
Shi Shuangliu buried his head and began to cry. Shi Xun felt irritated and turned to Xu Zhiqiong and said: "Zhiqiong, you have to work hard tonight. I will send this shrew to the execution ground tomorrow and let you rest continuously."
Take a bath for five days."
"Thank you Qianhu!" Xu Zhiqiong clasped his fists, sent Shi Xun and Zou Shunda out the door, returned to the small house, and went to sleep.
When he fell asleep, Xu Zhiqiong came to the cell and woke up Shi Shuangliu: "Listen carefully to me. If you dare to make any sound for a while, your life will be gone!"
Shi Shuangliu nodded repeatedly, and Xu Zhiqiong took out the hidden mirror...
At dawn, the Criminal Department came to pick up the prisoner. Because of the bad impact of the case, Bao Jingzhong, the left servant, personally came to the Deng Yamen to escort the prisoner.
When he arrived at the entrance of the deep prison, Bao Jingzhong did not go any further. The humidity, heat, and turbid air in the deep prison were really unbearable.
Xu Zhiqiong stepped forward to greet him, but Zou Shunda ignored him. Bao Jingzhong was so experienced that he would not write his old grudges on his face. He took Xu Zhiqiong's hand and said with a kind smile: "Xu Hongdeng, I heard that
You stayed in the cell for five consecutive days and performed your duties like this, and I am very respectful to you."
"The minister's words are serious, and these are all matters within his scope."
While talking, Shi Xun ordered Shi Chuanti to take the prisoner.
"Your Excellency, Shi Shuangliu, the criminal prisoner, was captured by Shi Chuan, my subordinate Bai Denglang. He is still handed over to the Ministry of Punishment by Shi Chuan. This can be regarded as a beginning and an end."
Shi Xun's words were a hint, and Bao Jingzhong naturally understood the deeper meaning: "Don't worry, Shi Qianhu, I have reported this matter to the Holy One, and the Holy One will definitely reward you."
Shi Chuan brought several officers from the Ministry of Punishment to the cell and shouted: "Shi Shuangliu, we're on our way!"
Shi Shuangliu sat in the corner, showing no reaction.
Shi Chuan frowned and walked towards Shi Shuangliu. The closer he got, the more he felt something was wrong.
Shi Shuangliu's figure was quite bloated, his hair was disheveled, and his face was covered in bloodstains, but his appearance was unclear.
"Shi Shuangliu! Look up!"
Just as Shi Chuan was about to step forward and pull her hair, Xu Zhiqiong gently tapped the hanging bamboo at the door of the prison.
The suspensory sac ruptured and the technique was activated. Shi Shuangliu suddenly stood up, shackled himself, and fled through the door.
Being restrained by the shackles, Shi Shuangliu ran in a twisted manner, but his speed was extremely fast. Shi Chuan followed behind him, leading several officials from the Ministry of Justice to pursue him.
Bao Jingzhong was shocked, and Zou Shunda quickly protected Bao Jingzhong and blocked the prison door.
Several officials were about to catch up with Shi Shuangliu when they suddenly heard Shi Chuan shout: "You can't go! There's a trap there!"
There were magic circles and traps everywhere in the deep prison, but the officials didn't know it and they ignored Shi Chuan.
Shi Xun realized that the situation was not good, so he rushed forward and stopped the officer.
Shi Shuangliu stepped into the trap. There was a reamer in the trap. The mechanism turned and blood flew. His whole body was instantly reduced to pulp, and even the shackles were reduced to iron filings.
The trap created by the Mo family was so powerful that several officials fell limply to the ground with blood splattered all over their bodies.
If it weren't for Shi Xun's quick hands, these cadres would also have fallen in after Shi Shuangliu.
Zou Shunda was very angry and stepped forward and kicked the officer a few times: "You're useless, you can't even watch a prisoner!"
When Shi Xun saw this, he was also very embarrassed. In desperation, he turned around and slapped Shi Chuan: "Shame on you!"
Xu Zhiqiong stood silently, the person had already been handed over, and this matter had nothing to do with him.
Bao Jingzhong was still in shock. When he calmed down, he looked at everyone's embarrassed expressions and quickly smoothed things over: "Shi Qianhu, don't blame your brother. This thief has already been killed and deserves it. I will go and report the truth to Lord Shangshu.
"
Shi Xun hurriedly said: "I will send you off."
This cannot be left to Bao Jingzhong to talk nonsense alone. Although Shi Chuan was at fault, the Ministry of Punishment was also responsible. There was a problem during the handover, and it cannot be entirely blamed on the head of the Yamen.
Shi Chuan said from the side: "Brother, I don't think that person is like..."
"How dare you talk too much!" Shi Xun turned around and slapped him again, "Go back to the main hall of the Yamen and reflect on it!"
The puppet that took four days to make was only used once.
This time it is just right, if you use it too much, the filling will be exposed.
Shi Shuangliu survived for the time being, but that didn't mean Xu Zhiqiong would definitely let her live.
We have to find out the matter next.
Where do centipedes come from? Is Shi Shuangliu really ignorant?
What is the purpose of putting a centipede on such a weak woman?
Does this matter still have something to do with Liang Yuming?
Is Liang Yuming dead? Does he still have many accomplices?
These things must be investigated clearly!
Let’s start with the poisonous insects!
…
Xu Zhiqiong left the Yamen, went to Li Qi Tea House, and slept in the elegant house for half a day. In the afternoon, He Fang came to the elegant house.
"Xu Denglang, this matter has put He at great risk. If Master finds out, do you know how much punishment He will receive?"
Xu Zhiqiong cupped his fists and said, "Miss He, Xu owes you something. If you need anything, just give me your orders."
"I haven't thought about it yet."
Xu Zhiqiong smiled and said: "Girl, slowly think about it, not only this one thing, I also owe you girl on the night of the Hanako Festival."
He Fang looked surprised: "You also know this."
"On the night of the Hanako Festival, Li Qi Tea House lit up the first lamp. The timid ones used lamps as a sacrifice, while the bold ones dressed up as beggars to see Xu off. This was the idea given by Miss He. This friendship, Xu
How dare you forget."
He Fang looked straight at Xu Zhiqiong without any shyness: "Just remember this friendship. Senior Sister Tao said you have no conscience. I don't believe it. You wait for my news in the tea house."
…
In the Yin and Yang Division, in Tong Qingqiu's room, Han Chen sighed.
"How many days has it been?"
Madam-in-law nodded and said, "Yes, how many days have you been staying here?"
Han Chen frowned and said, "What my sister and I said is inappropriate, why am I here? I have made a magic circle, and I can't get out of this house."
The sister-in-law said: "If the magic circle is not lifted by divination, do you still plan to live here for the rest of your life?"
Tong Qingqiu advised her sister-in-law: "Senior brother is also troubled, so don't say more."
"What's wrong with him? He's been here for so many days and can't do anything."
Han Chen sighed: "You two just go to the back room."
"Why are you going to the back room? Are you gagging? Aren't you afraid that you will hear me?"
Tong Qingqiu smiled bitterly and said: "Madam, be careful and careful..."
He Fang placed four candles on the third floor of the Yin and Yang Department and lit the candles one by one.
She opened her hands and began to use her skills, and all four candles were extinguished in the blink of an eye.
The spell failed, Taibu's magic circle was too powerful.
He Fang wiped her sweat, changed the positions of the four candles, and lit the candles again.
Taibu looked at Qingdeng and sighed: "This girl is getting more and more presumptuous. I am too arrogant and indulgent of her."
Anyway, what Xu Zhiqiong is doing is indeed an important matter, and I can't help but let Han Chen help him.
Three of the four candles were extinguished, and the remaining one was still lit. He Fang was overjoyed. This was the chaos skill working.
Han Chen was enduring his wife's complaints when he suddenly noticed a change in the formation in the corridor.
He carefully opened the door and found that he could go out!
Han Chen was very surprised, and Tong Qingqiu warned: "Be careful, don't fall into Taibu's trap."
"It doesn't matter," Han Chen waved his hands and said, "I have this sense of propriety. I've been bored and killing people these days, but I want to go out and take a walk."
Tong Qingqiu said: "Senior brother, please stay here, I will go with you!"
"Where are you going?" Madam-in-law smiled shyly and took Tong Qingqiu to the back room.
…
At Li Qi Tea House, Han Chen was drinking tea while listening to Xu Zhiqiong's account of what happened.
"This is half a centipede," Han Chen is really an expert. "It is the characteristic of a heretic centipede."
"What is half-attached?"
"Most of the centipede-like voodoos are heretics, and there are three types of possession methods:
The first is full possession, which is to completely possess the Gu Master. The Gu Master knows that the centipede is possessing him, and the body is controlled by both the Gu Master and the centipede.
The second is semi-possession. The possessed person does not know that there is a centipede in his body and can control his body most of the time. Only when the centipede wakes up, the body is controlled by the centipede.
The third is corpse possession, which means directly possessing the corpse, and the body is completely controlled by the Gu."
Xu Zhiqiong compared the three methods of possession: "I really can't think of any benefits of this half-possession. Just like Shi Shuangliu, she doesn't know there are poisonous insects in her body, and her body is controlled by her most of the time.
, this will not be of use at all when it comes to war."
Han Chen said: "The method of half-possession is not used to fight the enemy, but to raise the voodoo. It controls the possessed person to kill people and suck blood to improve the level of the voodoo."
Xu Zhiqiong still couldn't understand: "Even if you refine Gu, it is better to be fully possessed. Gu masters know what they should do, and they can be promoted faster."
"That's true, but cultivating a Gu Master is not that easy. First of all, it takes a lot of effort to let the Gu Master accept the heretic Gu Insects. After all, the heretic Gu Insects cannot bring any cultivation.
Moreover, Gu worms and Gu masters control the body together, and their intentions must be completely consistent. This requires years of practice and repeated training.
And once the training is successful, the Gu Master's temperament will change drastically. He will eat raw meat, drink human blood, and like to live in caves. Such behavior can easily make people suspicious, so it is best to have a blood sac to support him.
, don’t let Gu Shi go out to take risks,
The semi-attachment does not have so many troubles. Let the voodoo worm attach itself to an ordinary person, and his usual behavior will be normal. When the voodoo worm controls the body, the original owner will be unconscious and there will be no interference. There is no need to train or cause trouble.
life is doubtful,
Moreover, a half-possessed centipede cannot escape at will. The person who raises the poison must lift the seal before it can leave the possessed person. This also makes up for the centipede's weakness of being disloyal and is the best choice for raising poison.
As for the method of possessing a corpse, it cannot improve the centipede's cultivation level, nor can it raise gu, it can only fight against the enemy."
Xu Zhiqiong said: "But if you are like Shi Shuangliu and report the killing to the officials after killing people, won't the Gu insects suffer as well?"
"It's not considered a disaster. When the possessed person dies, as long as he is not killed by the poison-transforming technique, the poisonous insect will not die with him.
The person who raises the vood will leave a mark on the possessed person, and when the possessed person dies, he will sense it and take the vood back."
Xu Zhiqiong imagined the entire process.
Shi Shuangliu was executed by Lingchi, and someone would come to collect the Gu insects at that time.
After taking back the Gu worms, raise them on another person, and kill the people around you until they develop into high-quality ones.
What a cruel method. A fifth-grade Blood Jaw wiped out a village, and a third-grade Blood Jaw wiped out an entire village. If we were to cultivate this Blood Jaw, I don’t know how many lives would be needed.
Who is this person who raises Gu?
"Brother Han, are you willing to help me fish out this poisonous thief?"
Han Chen clasped his fists and said, "It is Han's duty to eliminate harm for the people!"
