Jia Mo

This laughter was so cold that it made my heart feel cold.Qi Yin's forehead twitched, Gui Mo got out of the sheath, and stabbed at a certain place.The sword light splashed like snow particles in the darkness, brightening a corner of the palace.They finally got a clear view of the things above. The beams were densely inhabited by moths, and some of their wings were spread out, revealing the black spots on them.The black spot is one on each side, and the wings are white. At first glance, it looks like a small face.

When those moths saw the sword light, they fluttered their wings and flew up one after another. Immediately, the room was filled with clouds and mist, all of them were monster moths.Qi Yin's scalp was numb, Gui Mo turned back, killed a few moths, more moths nimbly avoided the sword light, and were about to pounce on them with flapping wings.At the same time, a tall and huge shadow suddenly appeared outside the door, with two long horns protruding from the top of its head, like a minotaur witch.They understood at a glance that it was a demon witch, who stood upright enough to reach the door lintel.It hit the door leaf like a cannonball, and the golden light of the talisman flashed immediately, and snow-like dust fell from the temple.

Fulan set up a barrier to block the moths, but the door panel was crumbling again.

The black cat shouted: "Now we know what it is that chased those witches and witches. It turned out to be these demon moths."

"What's the use of knowing, we're about to end up with those witches!" Qi Yin said.

Calm down and think of a way.Qi Yin squeezed her palm hard.Attacking with fire won't work. The Sanwei real fire drawn by the spell is not just for fun. It will burn if it touches something. These monster moths will fly around with fire and burn the temple together.Cutting with a knife is not enough. If you cut off the beams and columns, you will also be buried alive.

How to do how to do?Qi Yin stared at the flashing charm on the gate, feeling confused.

"Damn it, don't care about it!" Qi Yin took out the talisman and threw it on it, "Burn it first and then talk, at worst we all die together!"

The talisman flew into the swarm of moths, and a cloud of fire spread from above.The moths screamed and flew around, and the flames ignited the pillars, beams and curtains hanging around, and spread a raging sea of ​​​​fire in an instant.The spell barrier was finally broken, and the witch corpses poured in like a tide, and the corners of the robe were dyed with flames, covering the whole body, and each corpse became a burning man.However, they struggled to move forward as if unconscious.

"This way!" Fu Lan said.

He hugged the black cat, lay down on the ground, and crawled under the white deer statue.It was his elder brother who had a trick. There was a witch curse on the idol, and anyone who touched it would be burnt to ashes immediately. The safest place was under the idol.But the bottom of the statue is narrow, and two people cannot lie side by side.Fortunately, Wu Cur didn't burn Qi Yin, he bent down and lay on Fulan's body, and the black cat nestled beside Fulan's head.Qi Yin propped up his arms and arched his back, so that his back could touch the cold statue.Looking up and looking around, the witch corpses were gradually approaching, and some knelt down stiffly, trying to crawl in and catch them.

Fu Lan kicked them, this guy was very strong, such a kick, actually kicked a witch's head into the cavity.When their bodies touched the god statues, blue flames were ignited all over their bodies. The flames burned extremely fiercely. In just a few breaths, a person's flesh and blood evaporated like steam, revealing scorched bones. ash.

Blue fireworks shrouded the surroundings, and the bottom of the statue was like a steamer. The two of them and the cat seemed to be roasted, and their bodies were sweating.The hot air is inhaled into the lungs, and there is a burning pain.The two people were face to face, and each other felt that their breath was hot, as if they were going to burn.If things go on like this, if they are not burned to death and bitten to death, they will also be roasted to death and smoked to death.

Sweat dazed his eyes, Qi Yin wiped his eyes in discomfort, lowered his head, but saw a big stone brick two meters square under Fulan's body, which seemed strange.The other stone bricks are all joined together tightly, except for a slight gap around this one.Qi Yin knocked on the stone brick, and it turned out to be hollow.Overjoyed in her heart, Qi Yin shouted: "There is a door!"

"There is a mechanism above your head." Fu Lan also said.

Qi Yin turned over with difficulty, and rode on Fulan to find the mechanism.He couldn't straighten his neck, and put his face against the belly of the white deer statue. He couldn't find it after searching for a long time, "Where is it, brother?"

"Before your eyes," Fu Lan said, "a raised thing."

raised?Qi Yin took a look, and only saw two eggs of the white deer and a big baby.Who the hell made a statue of a god, and set up a mechanism in such a place.If Bailu wanted to know that he touched this thing, he would poke him to death with a hoof.Qi Yin pressed the thing, and tried to rotate it again, but it didn't move at all.

"Why is there no movement?" Qi Yin asked.

"...not there." Fulan put her elbows on the ground, stood up slightly, held his wrist with her right hand, moved it three inches to the position of Bailu's abdomen, and pressed hard.There was a rattling sound from under the floor tiles, and the stone tiles suddenly retreated and shrank into the wall. There was an empty space under them, and the two of them and the cat immediately fell down.

The stone bricks at the back closed with a snap, and they rolled into a ball.Below is a narrow passageway, Fulan protected Qi Yin's head so that he didn't knock it down.

The two of them and the cat crawled in the tunnel for about half a stick of incense, pushed away the floor tiles, and arrived at another temple.With the flames soaring into the sky outside, one could see the situation in the palace slightly clearly.This is a place for alchemy, with a big alchemy furnace hanging in the middle, and four black iron chains as thick as arms are connected to four copper pillars.There are many sealed amphora clay jars placed high and low on the four walls, and a disemboweled corpse of a witch is lying on the ground.Although there were no moths in the corpse, just to be on the safe side, Fu Lan still froze it before dismembering the corpse, so as not to scare people by cheating on the corpse.

They stuck to the edge of the window paper and looked outside, the flames were blazing, ferocious tongues of flame licked the dark sky, and the burned witch corpses crawled on the ground.More witch corpses dragged long shadows under their feet, hovering on the white marble-paved divine path.Looking over at a glance, there are dense figures, floating like ghost soldiers.

"Xiaoyin—"

Some demon moths learned to speak, hid in their bodies, and called Qi Yin's name one after another.The ending sounds fluttering, like spring.Qi Yin's scalp tingled when he heard that, and said, "You didn't call me so lewd. What's the matter with these moths, don't they like me?"

"You have been recruiting monsters since you were a child, and you can run into little ghost dolls when you walk in the woods in broad daylight." The black cat lay on top of his head and looked out through the window paper. "Maybe your meat is more delicious than others." Speaking of meat , the black cat is really sad, "Poor old man with old arms and legs, tossing around with you young people, and still has no braised pork to fill his stomach."

Fu Lan nodded.

"What do you mean by nodding?" the black cat asked, "Do you know how to feel sorry for the old man?"

"Xiaoyin is more fragrant than others," Fulan said seriously, "it smells delicious."

Qi Yin blushed and pretended not to hear, she turned her head and caught sight of those earthen pots out of the corner of her eye, some were sealed, some were open, and were empty.He moved to the wall and held up a clay pot to look at it.

"Is there some elixir in here? My dear, the elixir made by the ancient great witch, even if it can't nourish the cultivation base, can also nourish the kidney and strengthen the yang, right? Maybe the old monster can live forever because he ate the elixir here." Qi Immortal held the jar up to the light and removed the cover.He took out a elixir, which was transparent, like leather glue, and soft, "Why don't we go out in a jar and sell it by elixir, one tael of silver."

When Fu Lan saw it, she immediately grabbed his hand and put Na Dan back into the pot.

"Will you be cursed by the witch if you sell it?" Qi Yin asked seeing his serious expression.

"It's not a pill," Fu Lan said, "it's a flying moth egg."

Qi Yin was startled, and hurriedly sealed the clay pot back, stuffing it tightly so that the moths would not break out of their eggs.

"Do you dare to send this moth out here?" Qi Yin scolded, "These gods and witches are so stupid, why do they like raising moths? Aren't cats and dogs cute? Look at our cat master, he can warm his hands in winter !"

The black cat leaned in front of the pot and looked at it carefully for a while, then said in surprise, "So it's this thing."

"What?" Qi Yin asked.

The black cat turned around and asked Fu Lan: "Stupid, is this a witch moth?"

Fu Lan nodded.The black cat hugged its paws and said, "Xiao Yin, you must have heard similar rumors. If you go to the Shiwanda Mountain, there are many villages there that still retain the custom of voodoo. Legend has it that centipedes, dog weeters, spiders, The two-headed snake and the turtle-backed flower were all put into a large urn, sealed for 49 days, and allowed to kill each other and devour each other. The last survivor devoured all kinds of poisons and became the most poisonous, and they were Gu insects. "

Qi Yin has indeed heard of this thing before, when the art of witchcraft was spread to the Central Plains, he always said it magically.What did the witch pat other villagers on the shoulders? It was all right at the time. When the villager returned home, he immediately bled from his orifices and died.Opening the chest and abdomen, the heart and liver were full of worms, almost bitten into a honeycomb.There are also women who buy witchcraft and put it in their husband's meals. It is said that after eating the poison, he will love her wholeheartedly until he grows old.Qi Yin always thought it was a spell or poison, but he didn't expect it to be a fucking bug.

"I don't know how the temples in the Central Plains are, but according to the ancient records of the Bashan Temple, the ancient southern Xinjiang Wuzhu was not only a wizard who worshiped the sky and respected the gods, but also a witch doctor who saved lives and healed the wounded. They raised Gu worms, mostly for healing. There is a A kind of Feilian God Gu, implanted in the neck of the paralyzed person, Feilian connects the host's back meridians and brain meridians, allowing him to walk again, walking like flying. The old monster told you that this moth is called 'Feilian', probably That Fei Lian is a Gu."

This difference is a bit big, the monster moth they saw was not saving people, but eating people.Qi Yin pulled the empty clay pot a few times, and said: "It seems that what Wushou summoned evil spirits is probably because they made a mistake in refining the gods. The gods turned into moths and came out to harm people. The real Bashan temple outside Is there such a thing?"

"I haven't opened the clay pot to see it," Fu Lan said, "Don't touch anything in the temple."

"Brother, aren't you curious?"

Fu Lan shook her head slightly, "Xiaoyin, when I walk in the temple, there is often a voice in my heart reminding me what is taboo and what is sin. These admonitions are engraved in my mind, and I know that only by obeying these rules can I Survive in the temple."

"It's like the Uro Secret Art," said the black cat, "Idiots are born to know these things."

His brother is a man of gods, Qi Yin thinks that this matter probably has something to do with Wu Yuli, after all no one knows Bashan Temple and Wuluo secret method better than Wu Yuli.Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Qi Yin began to look through the classics on the bookshelf.He picked up a scroll of human skin on which some images were drawn.The painting style is similar to the one in the tomb of the gods, but it is much more detailed, and the people in the painting have facial features.

The portraits are continuous and seem to narrate the history of witches.Most of the pictures in the front are the gods of heaven, earth, mountains and rivers, gods and witches offering sacrifices.Looking back, a villainous-looking guy appeared in the witch team. This person was painted extremely ugly, with fangs in his eyes, like a ghost.Standing in the ranks of witches and witches, he often had a wicked smile on his face.This guy stood at the end of the witch team at first, then moved forward, and finally walked in the front of the witch, standing between the great god and the witch.

During a sacrifice, the sorcerer burned the tortoise's shell to pray for the divine will, and the tortoise's shell was taken out from the fire and fell into the hands of the ghost.This is a method of divination, judging the hexagrams through the cracks on the shell of the tortoise, and predicting good and bad.However, it usually requires a wizard to explain the hexagrams before a judgment can be made.Obviously, the meaning of the sheepskin painting is that the ghosts have misinterpreted the will of the gods and conveyed wrong hexagrams to the witches and the people.The ghost covered his face and secretly smiled wickedly, looking like a villain.

In the last few paintings, ghosts kill all the witches who opposed him, his will spread throughout the southern border, the tribes who dared to defy him were wiped out, women and children were reduced to slaves, and there were shackles and shackles everywhere on the mountain trails and dirt roads. For the common people, there are straws wrapped in the flesh of demons and mortals planted on the roadside, and the bones are scattered all over the field.The Great White Deer sleeps soundly on the moon, seemingly ignorant of the tyranny of ghosts.

The atrocities of the ghosts finally aroused the wrath of the sky, and Fuxi led the gods to descend to the southern border.The torrential fire swept down from the clouds, and the ghosts held sacrifices and summoned the White Deer God.Dashen was bewitched by ghosts and led an army of demons to face Fuxi.The latter painting is the battle of the heavens, the white deer god's flesh and blood turned into rain, and the gods and all spirits played a lament together.

The ghost was captured by the witch. In the painting, his head was bleeding, his feet were shackled, and he was walking towards the high platform with difficulty.Along the way were angry people from southern Xinjiang. They seemed to be cursing loudly and throwing rotten eggs and vegetables at him.A long trail of blood trailed behind the ghost's feet, and at the end of him was the golden figurine.

Qi Yin understood at a glance that this ghost was none other than Wu Yuli.

"I said what crime he committed. It turned out to be such a thing. The emperor ignored the government and the two parties were fighting. After fighting and fighting, the prime minister took the position. Unexpectedly, the foreign enemy knocked at the gate. After the defeat, the prime minister stepped down." Qi Yin Shaking his head and sighing, "These witches must be very jealous of the good-looking old monster, so they painted him so ugly."

There is still a blank space at the end of the scroll of human skin. This blank space is so abrupt, as if it is about to draw something but there is no time to draw it.Qi Yin looked at the light, but didn't see anything.

"Don't think about it, it's probably because there is a surplus of skins." The black cat said, "The temple outside this scroll also has it. I have read it [-] times. Except for the past of the gods and witches, there is nothing."

Qi Yin was puzzled and said, "If there is room to spare, it would be fine to cut it out, why leave a blank space? And this blank space happens to be the capacity of a painting."

After thinking about it, he bit his finger and dripped a drop of blood on it.The blood drop disappeared without a trace as if being swallowed.At this moment, thin lines suddenly appeared on the human skin, and the lines curved and extended, gradually outlining a picture.

"Look, let me tell you, this is no ordinary skin." Qi Yin said.

The line first draws a wall, and then draws a black-faced man, a white-faced man and a cat in turn.

"This seems to be us?" Qi Yin pointed at those people, "This big fat cat is Master Mao, the white face is Fulan, and the black face is me. Your uncle, who is drawing here, I am so black Is it?"

"This may be the Divine Artifact River Map. Your blood has awakened it. Legend has it that it is full of yin and yang and five elements, and its mysteries are endless. If you understand the mystery, you can see the past and know the future. Now it seems that it is not as subtle as the legend says. But it can draw the situation around the owner." Black Cat said.

Qi Yin was worried about this little man with a black face, "The drawing skills of the artifact are nothing more than that, and the erotic pictures I draw are better than it."

The black cat said leisurely: "Baby, don't underestimate it. Some things are invisible to the human eye, but this artifact can see them. For example, if you bring the river map with you when you are in the glass illusion, you will know What kind of ghosts and monsters are those 'people' around you?"

"Master Cat, are you serious?" Qi Yin asked.

"Of course," the black cat was rather displeased, "I have nothing to do when I'm full, so why lie to you? Besides, I'm not full yet."

"Then what do you think this is?" Qi Yin's voice fluttered.

The black cat poked its head over, and Qi Yin pointed at the copper pillar drawn on the human skin scroll, where the lines were chaotic and criss-crossed like weeds.If you look carefully, there seems to be a black shadow with a hunched waist drawn there.There are not only two people and a cat painted on this scroll, but also a third thing, peeping at them from behind the copper pillar.

Damn, when was this thing there?They didn't even find out.

They both froze for a moment, Fulan didn't know where to go, Qi Yin looked around for a long time, but couldn't find his shadow, it seemed that only him and the black cat on his shoulder were left in the empty and silent darkness.

"Master Cat, look back, is that thing still there?" Qi Yin whispered.

"I don't, you turn around." The black cat grabbed his neck firmly.

Although Master Mao is fat, he is very timid.Qi Yin could only bite the bullet and turn around, seeing Fulan standing in front of the copper pillar with her back to them, only a few steps away from the black thing.

"Brother!" Qi Yin called him in a low voice.

Fu Lan turned a deaf ear and remained motionless.It was too dark in the hall, and in the hazy light, his back image was made of iron, which was a bit weird.

"It's over, is my brother bewitched?" Qi Yin worried.

"It's weird." The black cat whispered.

The cool night wind blows in from the window hole behind the copper pillar, blowing Qi Yin's hair.The breath of that thing was brought over by the wind, the black cat sniffled, hesitated for a moment, and said: "I don't know if there is something wrong with the old man's nose, his breath seems to be very similar to that of a fool."

"Who are you?" Fu Lan suddenly asked, and he asked the black shadow, "Are you... my fellow clan?"

There was silence in the darkness, Qi Yin could hear her breathing.After a while, a voice came from behind the copper pillar.It has exactly the same timbre and intonation as Fulan.

He asked: "Who are you?"
