Strange Records of Mountain Ghosts
Chapter 12: Gu Formation
The man rubbed Mei Jinxing's chin with his fingers. The unfamiliar touch made him feel chilly. He saw that Mei Jinxing twisted away uncomfortably, and smiled with satisfaction.
"How old is this year?"
Mei Jinxing has always been a gentleman who knows current affairs, so he replied: "Seventeen."
The man traced his eyebrows with his hand again: "Yes, I like it." There was poison in his smile, full of malice, Mei Jinxing didn't want to guess what he meant by liking.
After the man finished speaking, he returned to his expressionless state, and waved back: "Take it away."
A burly warrior behind him came up and clamped Mei Jinxing's hand. Mei Jinxing couldn't help but struggled and shouted, but the jailer didn't stop him. Enjoy the glory and wealth, or look at him with envy or hatred.
Only Mei Jinxing knew that it would be worse than death if she left this time.
Wufu quickly twisted his hands behind his back.Mei Jinxing was relieved, like a chicken caught by a butcher, unable to resist.
The guards on the side nodded and bowed, like a dog that only saw its master, and followed them from the prison to the sedan chair at the door.Mei Jinxing was restrained all the way, and then was stuffed into a sedan chair.He was still thinking about looking for an opportunity to escape on the road, but he saw that the man bent down and was about to come in before the curtain was opened.
Mei Jinxing's little thoughts ignited suddenly went out.
"Thank you, sir, please stay."
The man stopped when he heard the voice.Mei Jinxing saw that his complexion had become ugly, retracted his feet, turned around and smiled, "Lord Liang."
At the same time, someone asked the curtains to be lowered, Mei Jinxing hurriedly opened the curtains, facing the fierce martial artist, retreated cautiously, and began to pay attention to the movement outside.
"I don't know why Mr. Liang called me to stop me?" This is the man, Mr. Xie called by the jailer is speaking.
"Master Mu's case, according to what he said, he was not alone in Guadai last night, and his valet was also at the scene. We're here to interrogate him now." Mr. Liang's gentle voice came.
Mei Jinxing was shaken when she heard the words, and was about to lift the curtain to call me here, when suddenly her neck hurt slightly, and the words that were on her lips suddenly couldn't find their way out.
He can't make a sound!Mei Jinxing's outstretched hand became stiff, and then hung down, unable to move.He turned his eyeballs and saw a colorful scorpion standing on his shoulder proudly.
Mr. Xie outside the sedan chair was eager to take away the blood-recovery man, and after a farewell ceremony, he was about to leave: "Then I won't disturb your excellency's handling of the case, let's go first."
Master Liang called out to thank you again.
Mr. Xie ignored it and insisted on leaving, but he heard the director of the Supervision Department say gently: "Then please Mr. Xie to hand over the people in the sedan chair to the next official."
"I don't understand what Mr. Liang means by this?" Mr. Xie pretended to be dumb and pretended to be stupid.
Standing behind Mr. Liang are seven or eight inspectors, with red crowns and red clothes, machetes in their waists, and gu repelling powder in their clothes.
Xie Wei didn't expect that Liang Heng would dare to fight him hard.At this time, the sky is bright and the sun is bright, and there are streets not far away, and then thinking that the monarch wants to interrogate Mu Shaohe in person, this blood-seeker is an important witness. If you read his book, will you have to pay for it?
Although Xie Wei was unwilling, he had no choice but to give up the healer he had obtained.
Mei Jinxing, who was restless in the sedan chair, saw that the curtain was opened again, and a man in red carried him out.
Liang Heng cupped his hands: "Thank you, my lord!"
Xie Wei snorted coldly, and left with a group of people.
Mei Jinxing was carried back to the prison by a strong supervisor like a sandbag.But I didn't go back to the room full of people, but went to another place, except for the four walls, there was nothing else.
He was put on the ground, and everyone went out except Liang Heng.
Mei Jinxing was still unable to move, slumped on the ground like a lump of soft mud.He tentatively opened his mouth: "I..." When he found that he could speak, he hurriedly asked, "What happened? Young Master Mu...is Master Mu alright?"
Mei Jinxing desperately needs someone to tell him what happened in the past few hours, so that the Mu family, a century-old warlock family, can be reduced to a prisoner.Although I don't know if the adult in front of me is willing to answer the question of a servant.
Liang Heng sat down on the chair, looked at him for a while, and then said slowly: "It's not yet dawn, someone secretly reported to the Supervision Department, and someone in the suburbs used Gu to form a formation. Although we often receive reports of private Gu, the Gu formation Almost nothing."
Mei Jinxing was taken aback when he heard the Gu formation.
One Gu is poisonous, ten Gu are evil, and a hundred Gu forms an array, overturning mountains and rivers.
If a person hides Gu to resist Gu, then this person is mostly a sorcerer; if someone has ten Gu, because there are many evil Gu, and the number is large, this person will be contaminated by evil, become evil, and even lose himself; therefore, it is really powerful Most warlocks will only specialize in raising one Gu, such as the red snake blood dragon on Mu Shaohe's wrist and Xie Wei's poisonous scorpion; while practicing a hundred Gu, put them in an array at a certain position, and the evil spirit is soaring, it can be a powerful weapon for a person. The country brings prosperity and decline, whether it is a blessing or a curse, it all depends on the people who use it.
But those who can drive a hundred Gu are mostly evil.
After receiving the notification, the Supervision Department didn't dare to delay, and almost dispatched the whole team to the place where the secret report was made, just in time to see Mu Shaohe.
When Mu Shaohe saw Liang Heng, after being surprised, he smiled again: "Why did you come here before I called you? But it happened just in time, and I will leave this to you."
Liang Heng glanced at the woman he was referring to, and said, "Master Mu is still so nosy."
Mu Shaohe waved his hand: "Where is the matter, I have to blame me for snatching the work of the Supervision Department."
Liang Heng left two inspectors to deal with the human gu, and took the others to a field not far away.
Mu Shaohe paced up and followed, watching the group of inspectors scatter in twos, digging soil in this large area without saying a word, just staying quietly aside.
From the beginning of the dew until the people came to farm, saw that their fields were occupied by the government, the sky was about to fall, they shouted what was going on, they wanted to come in, and then they heard that the government had compensation, so they calmed down , turned to become curious, but was driven away in the end.
Until a piercing baby cried soaring into the sky, the two inspectors in the west exclaimed: "What kind of Gu is this?"
Mu Shaohe looked at the white sun in the sky, and yawned, thinking that his servant was preparing breakfast and waiting for him, when he heard the sound, he walked over: "Interesting, here's another..."
His words stopped abruptly when he saw something at the bottom of the pit.
Liang Heng's face was ugly, and he turned to look at Mu Shaohe.
The pit was dug to a depth of four feet. Underneath was a baby with fisted hands, tightly lying in a colorful swaddle. Its face was covered with black mud, its small fleshy nose, its mouth was flattened, and its eyes were closed. He said, the crying just now seemed to have exhausted all his energy, and he fell back into a deep sleep.
At first glance, it looks like a normal baby.
And that's what they're afraid of.
Mu Shaohe asked the two inspectors from the pit to come up, lifted his hem, and jumped down by himself. He lifted the cloth from the baby and saw the baby's swollen belly.There seemed to be a small watermelon stuffed inside, stretching his tender belly to the brim.
Mu Shaohe stared at that belly, lost in thought.
Someone exclaimed: "Be careful!"
The baby opened his eyes again, those eyeless pupils were so white, he let out an earth-shattering cry, the voice was cold and spread out.As if responding to this baby, the cries of men, women, old people, and children could be heard intermittently from the other pits being dug.
Mu Shaohe stepped on the baby's belly and crushed it hard. The baby's face twisted into a ball and its mouth closed.He came up from the pit and said to Liang Heng: "The unformed Insect Gu, wait until the sun is strong at noon, catch them out to dry in the sun, and they will dry up naturally. But be careful, the things in their stomachs will die when people die." The instant it breaks out, be careful to eliminate it in time."
There was a supervisory department who was fighting with each other: "Is this baby alive?"
Mu Shaohe's mouth moved, but he didn't answer.
"It's alive, but life is better than death." Liang Heng said solemnly.
Mei Jinxing did not expect that there were still so many "people" buried under their feet during the few hours after he left.They are wrapped and squeezed by the soil every moment, enduring the darkness and the ravages of the earth dragon in their bodies, it is really better to die.
"We dug out a total of forty insect-attracting Gu in the farmland on the outskirts of the city. Of course, we are still digging. It may take a few days to dig out as many as possible." Liang Heng tapped the table.
"But what does this have to do with Master Mu?" Mei Jinxing was already able to move, he straightened his feet, and his long legs hung on the ground, "What do you mean now, Master Mu did this insect-inducing Gu formation?" He was a little unbelievable: "If he really did it, how could the behind-the-scenes commanders watch you come and stay there? And the person who notified him, isn't he more suspicious? He has to pick the day before dawn Go to the supervisory department and tell him about it, have you interrogated him yet?"
Liang Heng: "First of all, the reporter was seriously injured and knocked on the door of the Supervisory Department. He died after speaking, so he couldn't be interrogated; secondly, the most important one..."
Liang Heng was only twenty-eight years old, but he had a beard. When he said this, he paused, stroked his chin, and said helplessly: "Insect-inducing Gu is only recorded in a book called "Gu Wen Za Tan". In the book, no one has ever seen the real Insect-Insect Gu, and no one knows how to make this Gu."
Mei Jinxing seemed to have guessed what he said next: "You mean..."
Liang Heng looked at his expression and said, "Yes, no one can do this kind of Gu, except for the person who created this Gu, and also the person who wrote this book—Mu Family No. 20 Eighth Generation Patriarch, Mu Shaohe Mu Yuanqing's father."
There was an enigmatic silence between the two.Each of them was thinking carefully, thinking about something.After a long time, Mei Jinxing looked up at Liang Heng: "I've finished asking my questions. Your lord, you just said that you want to interrogate me. When will it start?"
"What are you being interrogated for? Do you want to say that I caught ghosts with Mr. Mu last night and discovered the unorthodox insect-inducing Gu in the melon field." Mr. Liang smiled and shook his head, "We can also suspect that that woman It's a test done by Master Mu, it's just a failed Gu. As his personal servant, what you say is even more unconvincing."
Mei Jinxing sat on the ground, digging the cracks in the bricks with his hands: "Then why is your lord looking for me?"
Liang Heng seemed to be waiting for his words, and got up to leave. Seeing that he was not moving, he motioned for him to follow, and then walked out of the cell by himself.Mei Jinxing was sore all over, she stood up and followed while twisting her neck.
Liang Heng led him through the dungeon, turned left and right, and came out from a small side door. Outside was a deserted alley, and a wild dog was digging through the trash.
He turned around and said to Mei Jinxing, "I'm not here this time to interrogate the suspect by the order of the king, but a former friend asked me, saying that his little beggar might be in trouble, let me rescue him."
Mei Jinxing didn't expect that Mu Shaohe was in the prison, and he was still thinking about the servant who he had known for only a few months.He stood there a little at a loss, not knowing what to say.
"He asked me to give you two things." Liang Heng took out two small bags from his sleeve and handed them to Mei Jinxing, "and then sent you away."
Mei Jinxing was confused: "Huh?" Opened two bags in his hand, one bag contained money, and the other contained a small wooden whistle.
"He said he lied to you at the time. Although Jingnan warlocks flock to blood-shielding people, as long as you hide well and understand witchcraft, the world is big and the earth is big, and you are free to travel."
Mei Jinxing grabbed the things in her hand, a little dazed: "Then why did he lie to me?"
Liang Heng: "Mu Shaohe does things as he pleases, and you don't care about his reason. There has always been no reason." Liang Heng waved his hand outward, and said lightly: "Let's go. He said don't look at you as gentle and weak, in fact It's very smart to let you go by yourself without sending someone to protect you."
Mei Jinxing lowered his head and put the small wooden whistle back into the bag, and whispered softly, "Master Mu is really a good person who does whatever he wants."
Liang Heng turned around and went in with his hands behind his back: "Maybe."
"How old is this year?"
Mei Jinxing has always been a gentleman who knows current affairs, so he replied: "Seventeen."
The man traced his eyebrows with his hand again: "Yes, I like it." There was poison in his smile, full of malice, Mei Jinxing didn't want to guess what he meant by liking.
After the man finished speaking, he returned to his expressionless state, and waved back: "Take it away."
