Back to the Future Sword of Sichen

Yu Ren's green eyes turned into gold. In his eyes, Qu Niang's neck became transparent, and her slightly "childish" vertebrae could be seen. This is Yuren's unique ability to "recognize bones". Through other people's "bones", Yuren can fully understand a person's character and how they will be in the future. It is actually similar to fortune telling.

As Qu Niang said. Yuren indeed read that Qu Niang's power was suppressed by another more powerful force, just like a puddle of water contained in an airtight and tightly sealed box.

"It's exactly what you said, Lady Qu." Yuren lowered his head slightly and said in a sincere tone, "I wrongly blamed you."

Qu Niang's original anger was about to dissipate - Yu Ren's next words made Qu Niang feel tight in her chest again.

"Although Qu Niangzi is not the culprit," Yu Ren said, "someone did use Qu Niang's power to turn the people in the city into Lu Shu."

The originally quiet room was now tinged with a layer of coldness. The joints of Qu Niang's clenched hands turned white, her upper lip bit her lower lip tightly, her throat moved but she could not speak. As Xiangrui, she would never harm anyone. She didn't know why Yu Ren wanted to blame her as the culprit, nor did she understand what he meant by what he said. Now, she only felt aggrieved and bored. The "auspicious" feathered man in front of her disgusted her, and she just wanted to end it and leave here quickly.

Li Zheng glanced at Qu Niang. He had been an official for many years, and it was not difficult for him to observe words and expressions. He coughed a few times, focused everyone's attention on himself, and then said: "Yu Ren, everyone in the city calls you Xiangrui. As Xiangrui, do you have the ability to turn Lu Shu back into a human?"

Yuren frowned slightly. If he had this ability, he would have transformed people back long ago. Do they still count on themselves? Yu Ren shook his head and said: "I don't have this ability. Another point is that I am not Xiangrui. Secondly, my name is Ge Tian, ​​not Yu Ren."

Ge Tian's words were not harsh, and the tone of his words expressed his disgust for the title Yu Ren. To put it bluntly, just like black people don't like "inner guys" and Chinese people don't like "special gestures", it's the same truth.

Li Zheng, stroking his beard and thinking. Not only does Qu Niang talk about the whole of Peicheng, but in the gold market alone, there are hundreds of people who have been helped by her. Everyone says that Qu Niang is "a beautiful person with a kind heart", and this is true for Qu Niang. Perhaps, this is the auspicious sign. nature? If according to Ge Tian, ​​someone is using Qu Niang's power to gain something... But in such a big city, there is not even a clue, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"Speaking of which, I have a suspicion." Wei Mingye said, "None of us have ever doubted Qu Niang's little wooden figure."

Hearing this, Qu Niang shook her head like a rattle, "No, no, no, Master will not harm me. He created those wooden figures to help me move towards my auspicious goal. I don't think Master will harm me. "

"But everything is possible." Wei Mingye said firmly, "What do you usually use wooden figures for?"

“Fetching water, doing laundry, entertaining guests.”

"I still have a doubt - since your power is sealed, how do you control the wooden man?"

"Hmm..." Qu Niang looked at the almost imperceptible spider web on the ceiling and thought for a moment, then said: "At that time, my master asked me to put a few drops of blood on the wooden man. He told me that this is called drops of blood. Recognize the Lord, and this wooden man will listen to you from now on."

Speaking of this, Qu Niang laughed, with a look of helplessness on her face, "Master said that, but these wooden people are very naughty. Sometimes they bring the wrong wine to the guests, and sometimes they forget the time when fetching water. Play... they... they're like people, living people."

"That wooden man has a sense of autonomy." Ge Tian said, "Logically speaking, the blood contract is extremely powerful, and the contractee cannot disobey the master's orders..."

Before Ge Tian finished speaking, Wei Mingye motioned for him to shut up.

"Everyone." Wei Mingye said, "Now we have to find out who made people turn into Lushu. I just heard that the wooden people usually go to fetch water and entertain guests. As time goes by, the wooden people will become more or less a little bit The damage will cause the power in the body to flow out. I think we need to do an experiment."

Seeing no reply from everyone, Wei Mingye continued: "I suspect that the damage to the wooden man caused the power to flow out, turning people who drink water into deer and Shu. So, we can find an animal and let it drink it. Let the wooden figures soak in water and see if they can turn into deer and Shu.”

Ge Tian nodded, very much in agreement with Wei Mingye's plan, "I have never seen an animal that turned into a deer or Shu... But we can't use humans for experiments. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to use horses of similar size for experiments."

People around him nodded in agreement. If others had a better plan, they would have discussed it long ago. I don’t know which batch Lu Shu was placed in the temple. Now there is only one feasible plan. This matter must have been difficult for Li Zheng and other officials.

Li Zheng sighed, "Just follow Wei Mingye's plan."

Qu Niang started to move immediately, her heart beating so fast that it seemed like it was about to jump out of her chest. She hurried back to the wine shop, like a blue whirlwind, moving quickly and lightly through the crowd.

I pushed open the door of the wine shop and quickly locked it - it wasn't even business hours yet. She came to the room where she lived. There was not much decoration in the room, only a few simple pieces of furniture, a medium-sized bed, a wooden desk, and a bookcase full of books. The sun shines through the windows onto the floor, illuminating the entire room.

She found the five sleeping wooden figures beside the bed. They could even make a loud "clip sound" version of snoring just like humans.

"Okay, don't sleep!" Qu Niang held the wooden man in her arms. Before the wooden man could react, Qu Niang had already gone downstairs and locked the door. Her steps were as light as a flying swallow, as if she could not eat the world. The fairy of fireworks gracefully shuttles among the crowd. Every step she takes is like stepping on the beat of an elegant piece of music, beating lightly without leaving any trace, as if she is traveling across space through an indescribable force.

The few wooden figures just came to their senses and realized that they were not lying on a soft bed, but in Qu Niang's arms, and the surrounding environment had also undergone considerable changes. It's like a group of sparrows making a noise, they are chirping and shouting: "Where is this, where is this?"

"Okay, stop arguing." Qu Niang said, "You must cooperate obediently later."

Qu Niang walked into the courtyard of the God Chaser. There was a basin of water and a horse in the yard. Wei Mingye and others were waiting for Qu Niang to come back. Even the God Catcher was there, so big The battle attracted many people to watch.

"Now that we are here, let's start the experiment." Wei Mingye said.

Qu Niang put the wooden man into the water. The wooden man didn't know why Qu Niang did this, but he happily played with the water in the basin. The splashing water fell on the ground and wet a large area. Li was waiting for someone to take a few steps back. He was deeply afraid of being splashed by water and turned into a deer.

The method to test whether there are any mysterious spells left in the water is simpler. When the wooden man gets tired of playing (his mind is really simple, with his elm head), the God Catcher puts a talisman into the water, and when the talisman comes into contact with it The water instantly changed from yellow to purple.

"Sure enough, it's no different from what Wei Mingye guessed." Godcatcher said as he glanced at Wei Mingye, with a little more approval in his heart.

Now, it has been confirmed that the wooden man has revealed the power of Qu Niang. They used a little trick to get the horse to drink the water, and then they waited for the horse to turn into Lu Shu.

This time is like the sun in the sky, moving little by little. Li was wiping his beard and looking boredly at the staff of the Chasing God Division. The people who were eating melons also left little by little while waiting. They couldn't understand why Qu Niang brought the wooden man here and why she wanted the horse to drink water. , they can’t understand the reasons for things, they can’t experience the pleasure and novelty of getting curious objects, and they lose the fun of eating melons.

Li Zheng stood up slowly and said, "The time is coming. Fa Cao and I have something to do, so we have to leave first."

When Li Zheng left Chashensi, the horse remained unchanged. It was tied to a pillar, lowering its head to eat the weeds in the corner, and snorting heavily from time to time.

Two hours had passed, and Wei Mingye was unsure. This is an unknown experiment, and no one can guarantee that this experiment will be successful. The God Catcher looked at Wei Mingye from time to time, somewhat doubting his decision.

Besmir was quite patient. She even chatted with Qu Niang, while those wooden figures were put into a box and sealed.

Everything was as plain as water, and there seemed to be no special changes. The sudden scream of the horses changed the mood of everyone who was about to fall into boredom.

The horse was twitching all over, and there were many patterns on the pure black fur that the horse itself should not have. Even its height shrunk as if it had been absorbed by water.

The horses gradually changed at a speed visible to the naked eye. At this moment, Wei Mingye's experiment finally had results.
