To Raise a Soul

Shi Qingyuan is born with a Buddha body, and has a certain resistance to evil spirits. In addition, he has the elixir that Yu Zhen fed to protect his heart, so the evil spirits on his body are not too heavy, and it can be removed by simply sweeping with merit.

After forcing out the last bit of evil energy in Shi Qingyuan's body and burning it away, Yu Zhen withdrew his merit, exhaled a mouthful of turbid air and opened his eyes. Looking at Shi Qingyuan who fell asleep under the effect of the elixir, he flicked the Buddhist beads on his wrist. It also fell silent following the elimination of evil spirits.

Playing in the fantasy world is playing, tossing is tossing, and business must be done.

Judging from the previous situation, Shi Qingyuan's Love Tribulation is a bit difficult, it is a time-consuming job, but now that the phantom formation has made a big move, it has started to attack the monks in the middle, and there is not much time to slowly consume it.

We have to figure out how to keep everyone safe first.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, moved his hand, and touched the pagoda on his wrist again, thinking of Yin Yan who was outside the formation, his thoughts drifted away slowly.

If Master was here, what would he do in this situation?

Should we find someone first, or attack the formation first?Or... find out the eyes of the formation first, and grasp the only unstable factor in the formation at this time.

He suddenly returned to his senses and his eyes became firm.

With the master's clean and direct way of dealing with problems, if he was here, he would definitely not accompany Shi Qingyuan to solve some emotional disasters, but directly start from the formation and the eyes of the formation.

"It's really a demon." He raised his hand and patted himself on the forehead, recalled what he had done after entering the formation, and realized with horror that he had been provoked by the formation to arouse the hidden strength and instability in his heart. Unknowingly, it also became a part of the phantom array arrangement.

He looked at Shi Qingyuan on the bed again, and discovered an even more troublesome fact.

Before, he was in the dark, and the eyes of the array were also in the dark. Everyone was evenly matched. Now, the magic array used Shi Qingyuan's poisoning to force itself into the light, but the eyes of the array were still hiding in the dark. clear.

No, I have to go to the dark place again, and I can't let myself become a part of the plot of the phantom formation and be at the mercy of the phantom formation.

After making up his mind, he waved his hand to wake up Shi Qingyuan from his lethargy, and said, "Qingyuan, I want to blow up to get out now, the killer doesn't allow his real body to appear in front of the public, not to mention there is an emperor sitting outside. Yes, I will fake my death, you can find a place to bury me, and I will come to you after I escape."

Before Shi Qingyuan regained consciousness completely, he heard Yu Zhen's series of "death" words. He was so frightened that he woke up immediately, sat up and said, "Dead? Are you going to die? What's going on? It's me..."

"It's just feigning death, don't worry. I will leave a puppet that is exactly like me here. You can treat it as my corpse and show it to the emperor and the people outside. It is best to bury me in a grand manner and let the whole world Everyone in the capital knows that I died trying to save you, and I will go to the palace to touch up again during this period, and you should rest and recuperate first."

Shi Qingyuan's tense nerves were relaxed, he felt his body no longer uncomfortable, couldn't help but sighed, and said, "Sorry, I got you into trouble..."

"What trouble do friends talk about? I believe that if something happened to me this time, you would definitely come to save me like this." Yu Zhen comforted her with a sincere tone, and really regarded Shi Qingyuan as a friend.

At the beginning of their acquaintance, Shi Qingyuan kept avoiding Shi Qingyuan because of his worries, which caused their relationship to be very awkward and weird for a while.After the Shanzhuang incident, both he and Yin Yan had recovered their souls, and they no longer worried about the remnant soul being discovered, so they gradually eased their relationship with Shi Qingyuan.

He could feel that Shi Qingyuan was really kind to him, and he was very happy to be able to save him this time.

Shi Qingyuan looked at his rarely serious appearance, thought for a while, smiled, nodded and said: "It's Qingyuan's luck to have a friend like you...you do what you want, Qingyuan will fully cooperate, this time Help, thank you."

Yu Zhen also laughed, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, without saying anything.

After taking out a puppet to disguise, Yu Zhen saw that it was still early, so he asked, "I left in a hurry before, and I didn't have time to ask how you were poisoned. Do you know who killed you this time?"

Shi Qingyuan forced himself to look away from the overly real puppet beside the bed, shook his head and replied: "I don't know, after entering the palace, I will follow your instructions, and I will not touch the tea and water handed over by others. I went to sit in the royal study of the father, talked with the father, and read the book."

"Read the book for a while?" Yu Zhen grasped the point and asked, "Why do you still have time to read when you are talking with your father?"

Shi Qingyuan was stunned by the question, and after thinking for a while, he replied: "At that time, an official came to discuss government affairs with the emperor. To avoid suspicion, I went to the side hall to stay for a while. At that time, there was a box of isolated ancient books from neighboring countries. , there happened to be a Buddhist scripture on it, I sat bored, so I picked it up..."

Halfway through his speech, he also realized something was wrong, frowned, and said, "There is something wrong with that Buddhist scripture."

"Of course there is a problem. I remember that the two countries next door to Dayan don't believe in Buddhism." Yu Zhen asked thoughtfully, "Who was the official who talked to the emperor at that time, what position was he, and what did he want to discuss with the emperor?" ? Who sent the ancient books up, when were they sent up, and who put them in the side hall?"

Shi Qingyuan still shook his head, and replied: "I have been grounded some time ago, and I don't know much about the outside world. I don't know who put the box of ancient books in the side hall, and I didn't have a chance to ask Father. The official who the father talked about was an inconspicuous official from the Ministry of Rituals. The person who talked to the father... was probably about my marriage. Even if the prince married a concubine, even if the choice of the concubine had not yet been decided, the Ministry of Rituals had to start preparations first, so as not to After the wedding is settled, it’s too late to prepare.”

The inconspicuous official of the Ministry of Rituals met the emperor quite coincidentally when Shi Qingyuan was in the imperial study, and the talk was about Shi Qingyuan's marriage preparations that would never be rejected by the emperor.

There are too many coincidences, it is a conspiracy, and the mastermind who harmed Shi Qingyuan should be the leader of the formation.

Yu Zhen turned all kinds of clues in his mind, and without further delay, he asked Shi Qingyuan for the official's name, then called San'er, and asked San'er to manipulate the puppet to perform the "introduction of poison into the body to sacrifice himself" "Save the King of Qing", then his figure flickered and he walked towards the palace.

San'er is a soul body, and Shi Qingyuan, whose mind was affected by the phantom array, couldn't see him, so from Shi Qingyuan's perspective, it was Yu Zhen who suddenly asked him for the official's name with a serious face, and then disappeared into the After entering the room, the puppet, who was lying motionless beside the bed, sat up, straightened his sleeves like a living person, suddenly spit out a big mouthful of blood, and fell backwards on the ground.

Shi Qingyuan's mind went blank for a moment, and he hurriedly got out of bed and came to the puppet, hugged it into his arms and wiped the blood from the corner of its mouth, and called anxiously: "Yu Zhen! Yu Zhen, what's wrong with you? Imperial physician! Imperial physician, come in quickly! Imperial physician !"

The imperial physicians who were anxiously waiting outside were stunned when they heard the call, then they all came back to their senses and rushed into the room.

In the imperial palace, Yu Zhen came to the side hall of the imperial study and found the box of ancient books that were still in place, but did not find the Buddhist scriptures that Shi Qingyuan had read. He frowned, his figure flashed, and he came to the Ministry of Rites again. Residence of officials.

The official happened to be taking a bath today, and Yu Zhen stepped into the room, but only saw a dead body that had already been lying on the bed, and his expression sank.

Zhenyan is very smart, and has already erased all clues that might expose him.

Yu Zhen returned in vain, and went back to Qing Palace, where he saw that his "corpse" had become a mess around him, while Shi Qingyuan sat on the side with a pale face and gloomy expression, admiring Shi Qingyuan's acting skills in his heart. Liked it, told San'er to stay by Shi Qingyuan's side to protect her, then turned around and went back to the palace.

Two days later, Yu Zhen sat on a chair in the imperial study, covered his body and listened to the emperor and several important officials discussing the visit of envoys from neighboring countries, rubbing his forehead with a headache.

No clue at all.

In order to harm Shi Qingyuan more reasonably and conveniently, the cultivator who became the new eye after being enchanted will definitely become the royal family or people around the royal family, but he searched for two days, there are so many people in the imperial city, and he didn't even see a familiar face Come on, it's not scientific!

Elder Feng brought over a hundred or twenty or thirty monks, but except for the one he rescued by coincidence and Shi Qingyuan, he didn't meet any of them.

Could it be that he guessed wrong, the illusion has not merged, and everyone is still scattered?The eyes are not here?

It doesn't make sense that the phantom array is in a hurry now, and at the risk of being exposed, after knowing that he has barged in, he is still attacking Shi Qingyuan under his nose.

Where is the problem...

"What the grand master means is that the neighboring country sent the little prince Feng Lin to visit this time, is there any plan to marry us Dayan?"

The emperor's voice suddenly broke in, Yu Zhen was taken aback for a moment, then his eyes widened suddenly, and he turned to look at the imperial case—wait, what did he hear just now, little prince Fenglin?

"Nine out of ten." The grand master with white beard and hair replied with a serious face, and said: "There are only two princesses waiting to be married in the palace, both of whom are born by the empress. I definitely don't want to, and marriage is not a wise choice, but if not... I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult."

The emperor frowned tightly, pondered for a few seconds, then firmed his tone, and said: "Marriage is absolutely impossible, my daughter of Dayan does not marry outside, if Prince Fenglin really wants to marry the princess, he must find a way to refuse. "

"The emperor is wise." The grand master cupped his hands and flattered him.

Yu Zhen couldn't sit still anymore, she got up and walked out of the capital.

About a quarter of an hour later, he found the team of envoys from neighboring countries who were still walking slowly towards the Great Yanjing City. When he took a closer look, he wanted to look up to the sky and sigh.

There are dozens of envoys, but the people inside are all monks!Not only Feng Lin was there, but Feng Lao, Bo Xiu and a lot of familiar monks were all there.He searched in Dayanjing City for a few days, but in the end, this group of people was not in Dayan, but next door!

He sighed and then heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that his guess was right, the phantom array had indeed gathered all the people together, he hurried forward to get in touch with Feng Lao and the others, but as soon as he got close to the carriage where a few people were sitting, he saw When Bo Xiu put the knife on Feng Lin's neck, Feng Lao was looking at Bo Xiu with hatred.

What's happening here?He froze, and hurriedly stepped in while covering his body.

"Presumptuous! Put the knife down!" Feng Lao yelled at Bo Xiu, afraid of the knife in his hand, he didn't dare to stop him.

Bo Xiu had a sullen face and sneered: "I'm not from your Dafeng, your presumptuousness can't hold me back. Why, do you feel sorry for you, little master? Then when you Dafeng ravaged and killed my Yuan country captives, why? I don’t know how to put down the knife!”

"It was you Yuan Kingdom who invaded Dafeng first, so what's wrong with the invading enemy!"

"If you, Dafeng, don't kill our envoys from the Yuan Kingdom, how can we go to war?"

The two spat at each other, and Feng Lin, who was still being compared to the sword, looked at this and then at that, broke out in a cold sweat, and tried to persuade him: "Well, don't turn over old accounts, you are all a little restless now , that master... no, that military adviser, and Xiu... no, Mr. Bo, if we have something to say, let's talk it out, we are all one family... Ahhh! Don't kill me!"

Bo Xiu cut off a strand of his hair, and said viciously: "Shut up! Idiot prince, my Yuan Kingdom and your Dafeng are not in the same family! When I enter the Great Yanjing City this time, I will use your hands to kill the Emperor Dayan!" The most beloved Prince of Qing, let's see how long you Dafeng can continue to be arrogant under Dayan's iron hooves!"

Feng Lao hurriedly protected Feng Lin behind him, and said angrily: "So this is the purpose of you killing my envoy and infiltrating the team of envoys. Let me tell you, don't even think about it, I—"

bass--

As the sword flashed across, Bo Xiu said coldly: "Shut up, when the holy medicine arrives, whether you want to or not, you will become the puppets of my Yuan Kingdom and be at our mercy. Enjoy your final sobriety, hmph."

After Boxiu finished speaking, he left the gorgeous carriage, and the old Feng immediately collapsed with his face full of nothing. He fell on the carriage mat and coughed vigorously, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Feng Lin was shocked, hurriedly helped him up, and asked anxiously: "Grandpa, are you feeling unwell again? Take it easy, come, drink some water first."

Mr. Feng shook his head to show that he was fine, and instructed: "Your Highness, you have already said that you can't call me grandpa anymore. Weichen is just your teacher. Grandpa was a joke when I was a child. You can't call me anymore now. Be careful not to be overheard by outsiders." , I will teach you no distinction between superiority and inferiority."

"What teacher, you are my grandfather." Feng Lin frowned and retorted, found out the water bag and unscrewed it to feed him, touched the empty storage bag, his expression collapsed, and there was faint despair in his eyes.

The elixir has been used up, what should I do now?If you don't go out, Grandpa and Uncle Xiu will sooner or later...

"You are indeed sober." Yu Zhen waved his hand to make Feng Lao temporarily fall asleep, showed his figure in front of Feng Lin, motioned to the group of people outside, and asked, "What's going on with Uncle Xiu? How did you get together?"

When Feng Lin saw him, he was taken aback for a moment, and then immediately let out a cry of surprise, gently put down Feng Lao, rushed over and hugged... his thighs, tears streaming down his face.

"Brother Yu, you finally came to save us. Grandpa was injured by the illusion in order to protect me, and Uncle Xiu became an enemy for no reason... Woohoo, I knew you would come, Brother Yu, I was so scared, Brother Yu, you finally came .”

Yu Zhen was rubbed against his leg by his tears, looked at his embarrassed and frightened look, sighed, raised her hand and patted his head.

After venting, Feng Lin got up embarrassedly, wiped the tears on his face, took the elixir handed over by Yu Zhen, and carefully fed it to Feng Lao who was still asleep.

"I woke up a few days ago. At that time, because I couldn't bear to always lose to some brothers in various competitions, heck, I mean the brothers in the illusion, so I sneaked into the forest and decided to practice and become stronger. Grandpa was my teacher in the illusion, and also Dafeng's military adviser. He came to look for me after he found out that I was missing. In order to save me, he was injured by a wild animal in the forest. gone."

Feng Lin explained the process of waking up, his shoulders slumped, and he said in a low voice: "It's all my fault. In fact, I know that although grandpa always said that I was not up to date, he actually loved me the most, and he never thought that I was too weak. It's shameful, grandpa only hopes that I can live happily and smoothly... If it wasn't for me, grandpa would have woken up a long time ago. I didn't know that his heart was actually me. I can't wake up...it's all my fault..."

As he spoke, he couldn't help raising his sleeves to cover his face, his shoulders trembled, and he wanted to cry again.

Yu Zhen patted him on the back reassuringly, handed him another ball, and signaled him to eat it.

Although Feng Lin is awake, but because he wants to save others, he has not had the opportunity to meditate for a long time, so now his cultivation base is in a very unstable state, and his emotions are prone to turmoil, so he must stabilize first.

"Sorry, I lost my temper again." Feng Lin wiped his face indiscriminately, forced a smile to respond to his comfort, took the pill and ate it, and then talked about the business after a while.

"Uncle Xiu came out of nowhere a day ago with the rest of the monks. He claimed to be a courtier of the Yuan Kingdom next door to Dafeng. Empress Yan brought a group of people to kill her."

Yu Zhen nodded to show that he was listening, took out a bag of cakes made of spiritual grass and put them in his hand, and said in a warm voice, "Talk while eating, don't worry, we still have time."

Feng Lin smiled at him, smelling the sweetness of the pastries, he felt more at ease.

One day ago, after blocking Dafeng's envoys, Boxiu directly killed all Dafeng officials and soldiers except Feng Lin and Feng Lao, stripped off their clothes and official seals, disposed of the bodies and dressed up as Dafeng officials With the appearance of the soldiers, Feng Lin and Feng Lao continued to drive towards the Capital of Dayan, planning to borrow a knife to kill people and provoke a war between Dayan and Dafeng.

"Uncle Xiu kept me and grandpa in order not to make Dayan suspicious, and he kept saying that someone would send the holy medicine, and when grandpa and I took the holy medicine, we would become puppets at his mercy."

After Feng Lin finished speaking, he became sad again, fingered the delicate embroidery on the clothes, and said: "I tried to find Uncle Xiu's heart barrier and wake him up, but Uncle Xiu is completely irrational now, and he hates me and grandpa deeply." , don’t communicate with me at all.”

"He has a strong evil spirit, and he is too deeply affected by the phantom array." Yu Zhen frowned intuitively when he thought of Bo Xiu's state, and then asked, "Are all the monks brought by Feng Lao here? You can recognize it. Are there any missing people?"

"Most of them are there. I checked them out on purpose." Feng Lin replied, and asked suspiciously, "Brother Yu, why do you ask such a question? Could it be that something happened to the single cultivator?"

"No, it's among us..." Yu Zhen searched for a suitable word and said, "There is a traitor."

Feng Lin's face was full of bewilderment, and his mouth was slightly opened: "... huh?"

After some exchange of information, Feng Lin's spirit disappeared again.The people he knew became demons, became enemies, and even helped the phantom array to harm them, this fact he could not accept.

"It turns out that the King Qing that Uncle Xiu wants to kill is Brother Qing Yuan..." He was absent-minded for a while, wiped his face, forced himself to cheer up, and said, "There are three people who are not here, one is Shen Feng, who just arrived A young cultivator from City B, with low cultivation and an introverted personality, was often bullied by other cultivators when he was in his hometown, very pitiful..."

Yu Zhen remembered the little monk he rescued before, described his appearance, and asked, "Is that him? If so, then he is safe."

"Yes, yes, it is him. He has a mole on his mouth, which is easy to recognize." Feng Lin nodded quickly, and was relieved to hear that the other party was fine, and continued: "There are two more, one is Zhou Qing, and Qing Like Brother Yuan, he is also a Buddhist cultivator, but his qualifications are not very good. He is from Master Yuanhui's side. He was not planned to come this time, but he volunteered. Grandpa reluctantly brought him for the sake of Master Yuanhui. There is another one named Miao Zhengguo, who has a stronger temper and is also from other places. He often conflicts with everyone, and everyone doesn't like him, but Grandpa said he has a true temperament and appreciates him."

A Buddhist cultivator, a person with a bad personality... Yu Zhen groaned, unable to come up with a clue, so he simply stopped thinking, and comforted him a few more words, checked the situation of Feng Lao, and got out of the carriage with a flash .

The convoy stopped as early as they were talking, and the people outside were camping and resting under Bo Xiu's command.

Bo Xiu's complexion was gloomy, his body was full of evil spirits, and he looked very bad.

Yu Zhen approached him from behind, waved his hand, and a wave of spiritual energy entangled him quietly, touching his temples.

Bo Xiu immediately yawned, opened and closed his eyes a few times, finally couldn't bear the sudden surge of drowsiness, called some of his subordinates to give instructions, and went to rest in a carriage behind.

Yu Zhen followed, and when he was lying down in the carriage, he moved his hand, and Kui Yuan mirror was in his hand.

"Huh? Why is it hot?" The mirror was actually warm after holding it in. Yu Zhen touched it suspiciously, but couldn't find out why. Seeing that Bo Xiu had fallen asleep, he quickly shook his head to shake off the doubt, and stimulated the aura , began to use the Kuiyuan mirror to spy on Boxiu's memory after he entered the phantom formation, and the phantom formation forged for him.
