Chapter 272 Incense Ash
Dragon It was too late for Ah Hu and the others to come and rescue.
At the critical moment, Ming Zhuo took action. She kicked the attacker in the chest and sent him flying.
Ah Liang looked at the fruit knife on the ground in confusion, and suddenly screamed in fear.
He remembered! Just when the housekeeper sent someone to call him, he took a fruit knife and put it in his arms, but it was strange, why did he take a knife? And he ran to assassinate the young lady, is he crazy?
Housekeeper: "Asshole, why are you screaming! This matter is not over today, I want to call the police!"
Ah Hu snorted coldly and walked forward to subdue the man.
Ming Zhuo stopped him.
She looked at the trembling man and sighed, "Housekeeper, don't call the police, it's not him."
Aliang held his head and said, "Miss San, please don't be like this. Call the police and have me arrested, or I'll go crazy!"
Mingzhuo walked up and squatted in front of him, "Do you think you did that just now?"
Aliang nodded honestly. He had a clear memory and mental process.
Housekeeper: "Miss San, please don't speak for him! Such a wicked person is not worthy of sympathy!"
Mingzhuo looked at the man's pupils, which clearly reflected her own shadow. She smiled friendly.
Then she suddenly pointed over.
Being so close, Aliang couldn't react at all. He only felt like a blade had cut through his eyes. He felt a sharp pain in front of his eyes, and then fell into darkness. He covered his eyes and screamed.
Everyone was shocked and wondered what the third lady was doing.
Even if you are angry, you can't hurt other people's eyes. If you do that, you will become unreasonable.
Mingzhuo said coldly, "Aren't you going to come out yet?"
Ruan Mingying looked at Mingzhuo in confusion. Who is her sister talking to?
Mingzhuo raised his hand and slapped Aliang's head. Aliang spat out a mouthful of blood, and there was a bug-like thing wriggling in the blood!
The thing was too small and everyone couldn't see it clearly. Before they could take a closer look, Mingzhuo shouted, "Close your eyes!"
She stepped forward and killed the thing with a sword. The thing screamed miserably, then turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared.
Everyone was still in shock, watching this scene in shock.
Oh my God, what was that just now?
"It can't be a ghost?" Someone said in fear.
Ming Zhuo: "No, there is no ghost or yin energy on him."
On the contrary, there is a pure aura, so it is so secretive and not easy to be detected.
If other Taoist priests came today, they might not be able to see the clues, after all, the talismans and rituals to exorcise evil spirits are useless.
Ming Zhuo squatted on the ground to check the ashes spit out by the thing, "This should be a kind of insect, it's very strange, it seems to be raised with incense ashes, but it can get into people's eyes and control people's minds."
Insects are generally evil creatures, afraid of the extremely strong and yang incense ashes, but that thing can feed on incense ashes, it's too weird.
Ruan Mingying caught the key point, "Aliang was just controlled by someone?"
"Yes." Mingzhuo nodded, then looked at Aliang, "Have you come into contact with any strange people or encountered any strange things recently?"
Aliang shook his head in confusion, suddenly thought of something, and hesitated.
"I don't know if it counts... One night I dreamed of my deceased girlfriend, who asked me to go to the incense burner of Beishan Temple and grab a handful of incense ash to take home."
"Beishan Temple?" Mingzhuo searched in his mind and had no impression at all.
Aliang: "Yes, it's called Beishan Temple. It's a small Taoist temple that my girlfriend and I encountered when we were walking on the Dasongshan Ancient Tea Horse Road a few years ago."
Dasongshan spans several provinces and cities. The ancients opened up the road between cliffs and mountains to do business and spread civilization, which is the Tea Horse Road.
The Dasongshan Ancient Tea-Horse Road has a long history. It has been abandoned for many years because of the gradual decline of water transportation.
Those iron cable suspension bridges, wooden plank roads, smoky caves and religious traces are gradually buried among the mountains.
A few years ago, field adventures suddenly became popular, and travel companies came up with a new idea to make money, taking young people with curiosity and energy to explore the Ancient Tea-Horse Road for training and camping.
There is even a gimmick, saying that couples who support each other through the Ancient Tea-Horse Road will receive blessings from the ancients and gods and live together forever.
Aliang and his girlfriend followed the tour group to cross the Ancient Tea-Horse Road.
Most of the ancient road is on cliffs, and there is no way to open an artificial passage. They can only get rich supplies at the starting point and the end point.
The remaining two camping sites and two supply points, but because they were carried up by porters, they were expensive and had few varieties.
Beishan Temple was between the longest supply points on the way. At that time, he and his girlfriend almost fainted due to lack of water. They were stunned to see the Taoist temple on the cliff.
His girlfriend said that this must be a hermit master. The two asked for water to drink, and then they had the strength to continue walking the unfinished road.
Later, his girlfriend died in an accident, and he could never let it go.
Therefore, he dreamed that she asked him to go to Beishan Temple for several consecutive nights. He walked the Tea Horse Road again, found the ancient Taoist temple hidden in the mountains, and took the incense ash home.
It was also from that time that he would always be in a trance and find that he would do some strange things.
But in his heart, he would rationalize those actions. This is what he thinks and what he wants to do.
After hearing this story, Ruan Mingying looked at Mingzhuo nervously, "Zhuzhuo, you are not going to that Beishan Temple, are you?"
Mingzhuo shook his head firmly, "How is it possible? I don't like camping. And Aliang just said that once you set foot on the Ancient Tea Horse Road, there will be no room for regrets, because there is no way down the mountain, you can only go forward, and I can't do that. I like the bustling world, and I like the comfortable hotel bed even more."
According to Aliang's description, Beishan Temple is located in the middle of the Ancient Tea Horse Road, which means that no matter whether she goes forward or backward, she must camp there for two nights.
Of course, that is not possible. She doesn't want to live such a hard life.
Mingzhuo called Wu Jiao and told him about Beishan Temple.
Let Xuanmen help send people to investigate. After all, the things in the mountains have come out to harm people, and Xuanmen can't just ignore it.
Wu Jiao said positively: "Teacher Ruan, don't worry. I will personally supervise and handle this matter. I guarantee that I will find out everything about Beishan Temple!"
Mingzhuo hung up the phone with satisfaction. This is the advantage of having a background and connections. You don't have to do everything yourself.
She thought about it. She couldn't figure out the incense ash dragon of Beishan Temple for the time being, but she had a way to deal with this harmful talisman.
She put the talisman on the tea table, and then took something and put it on the talisman.
Ruan Mingying asked with interest: "What is this? Is it a character from that ancient puppet show? It looks pretty good."
The wooden puppet was lifelike, with a gentle and mysterious temperament, like a high priest in a fantasy drama, pale and noble, with a hint of evil in its sorrow.
"No." Mingzhuo bit his finger and dripped a drop of blood on the puppet's forehead, pinched his hands, and then said to the puppet, "Go-"
"Go find the person who cast the spell and make him suffer."
