Chapter 12 Chapter 12 Thought Ji Chu was playing tricks on him
Ji Chu raised his head and said this seriously.
Meng Yuci: "..."
He raised his eyes and looked at Ji Chu's face.
The space of meditation was pitch black, and Ji Chu's meridians were reflected in the void. Light golden spiritual power flowed in it, forming a group of stars, and enveloping the figure standing in the middle in the center of the starlight.
She has clear eyes, which are black and round, and her chin is pointed and her figure is slender.
There is a little baby fat on her cheeks, and she has a beautiful face that has not yet fully grown up. She is still childish, smart and cute.
It's an easy-to-like look.
Meng Yuci almost thought Ji Chu was playing a trick on him.
His eyes were cold and ruthless as he looked at Ji Chu silently.
Fortunately, Ji Chu quickly realized that his question was strange and quickly added:
"And other parts of my body, especially my neck..."
She first shook her head, as if to test whether she had a stiff neck. Her collar loosened slightly with her movement, revealing the smooth skin on the side of her neck.
The jet-black hair stuck to the snow-white neck, the contrast was so sharp that it was a bit dazzling, and many hairs were rolled into the back collar.
The more Ji Chu moved, the more he got caught in it, and it piled up messily on his collar like a fluffy mushroom head.
She was completely unaware and began to roll up her sleeves and examine her arms.
He was about to check his entire body, while saying:
"Could there be flowers that I can't see? It doesn't necessarily have to be flowers, maybe demonic energy or something? Or maybe it's a problem that's different from others?"
Meng Yuci wanted to sigh again.
But he just retracted his gaze and said indifferently:
"No."
Ji Chu: “Great!”
She was originally worried that she had fallen into Xue Xianchen's trap and that something had been contaminated on her body, which attracted Yao Chan's attention.
But the seniors all said no, so there definitely isn’t.
She had great trust in this senior whom she had never met.
Ji Chu was completely relieved and couldn't help but say a few more words:
"Luckily, Senior, you're here to help me. Otherwise, I'd be stuck for days trying to figure it out... What my senior brothers and sisters said the other day was right. The people in the Witch Burning Sacrifice Diagram are so strange, it's impossible to communicate normally..."
As she spoke, she looked up at the void again with caution, and said to Meng Yuci's consciousness, who was somewhere unknown:
"Senior, please don't try to persuade me to give up. I definitely won't give up."
Meng Yu said:
"Um."
Ji Chu was finally satisfied and stood up to repair his meridians.
But I heard him ask:
"Why don't you go find your master?"
It seemed as if he was asking her why she didn't go to her master to ask about the "flower".
Ji Chu replied:
"Senior, you don't know that although I am registered under the name of the headmaster, I usually practice with Uncle Shen. The headmaster is so busy that he will definitely not care about a disciple like me who is raised by someone else. As for Uncle Shen..."
She paused, a look of annoyance on her face that she couldn't change but had to endure:
"He doesn't care about such trivial matters."
There is a lot of resentment in these words.
Meng Yuci looked at her for a moment and asked again:
"He treats you badly?"
Ji Chu looked aside with his head down, rolled his eyes quickly, and said sarcastically:
"It's pretty good. He even taught me how to play the piano."
As he spoke, he used his five fingers to imitate the gesture of plucking the strings of a musical instrument, stretched out his hand to pluck his meridians, and broke the orderly flowing spiritual energy into a ball.
Her secret eye-rolling action naturally did not escape Meng Yuci's eyes.
Although he felt it was indecent, he didn't say anything. He just said "hmm" in a flat tone, as if it was just a casual question.
Ji Chu was not very happy.
She felt that her mentality was very strange.
If the senior had heard the "hidden meaning" in her words and continued to ask "why", she might have felt annoyed and "offended", and might even have rudely added "none of your business".
But he didn't hear it and tacitly agreed that Chen Ke was "nice" to her, and she felt suffocated to death.
But she was the one who gave the answer, as if she was speaking well of Shen Ke.
I'm not happy no matter how I think about it.
Ji Chu's face was full of "I'm very unhappy" and he said to Meng Yuci:
"I suddenly remembered that I have something to do. Please come back tonight, senior."
Meng Yuci did not comment.
Ji Chu was already unhappy about Shen Ke's matter. Just as he came out of meditation, he heard Shen Ke's voice from the sound transmission jade:
"Come to Guangxuan Peak to practice the piano now..."
Ji Chu decisively covered the sound transmission jade with the stone bricks beside him and pretended that he had not received the message.
Although she would not give up the "Burning Witches to Sacrifice to Gods Picture", it was indeed not easy to get 1,000 points.
If you want to participate in the Immortal Questioning Conference, you have to think of other ways.
Ji Chu counted his missing score on his fingers. His conscience gradually disappeared in the huge score gap, and he thought of Chen Wu again, who had the "50 points" in his hand.
"A full fifty points..."
She took out the sound transmission jade from under the stone brick and injected spiritual power into it.
Chen Wu's trembling voice came from the other side:
"Senior Sister Ji... help!"
Ji Chu stood up with a "swoosh", and a chaotic sound came from the opposite side, as if the sound transmission jade had fallen to the ground.
After a while, voices were heard again from the sound transmission jade.
"Ji Chu." Jiang Chengxu's voice was filled with anxiety: "We are in trouble."
*
Before Ji Chu could go against his conscience to rob, Chen Wu's ghost-catching mission worth 50 points had already gone wrong.
The process of finding the ghost was very easy. He walked around the haunted house and found the ghost named "Ge Er" in the box under the bed.
Ge Er's ghost was almost gone, and he was able to survive temporarily by hiding in the "Iron Ying Sand".
Iron quartz sand is an indispensable material for sword-making in immortal sects. Ge Erben was the one who delivered the iron quartz sand to the Fu Yu Immortal Sect. Somehow, he died at the foot of the mountain.
There was also a full bag of spirit stones in the box. The storage bag containing the spirit stones came from the inner disciples of Fu Yu Xian Zong, which meant that Ge Er had already met the disciples from Fu Yu Xian Zong who came to purchase.
The money has been paid, but the goods are still here.
Chen Wu vaguely felt that something was wrong, and happened to meet Xu Ying and Jiang Chengxu who were looking for the lost "Iron Sand".
As soon as the three of them met, they knew something was wrong.
Because the person in the sect who was responsible for purchasing this batch of "Iron Sand" was Yuan Fu, a disciple of the Weapon Refining Hall who died some time ago.
Yuan Fu's body was found in the weapon refining hall, but his storage bag was left at the foot of the mountain, and even the person who had traded with him was dead.
Ji Chu was accused of killing Yuan Fu that day. Although the misunderstanding was later cleared up, the real murderer has not been found yet.
Now it seems that Ge Er is probably involved in this matter.
Unfortunately, Ge Er’s ghost had been away from his body for too long, and he was about to die, so he couldn’t utter a complete sentence.
The three of them couldn't get anything out of him, and they were afraid that they would not be able to wait until they could return to the sect, so they wanted to try to set up a "soul gathering formation", perhaps they could gather Ge Er's soul together and ask him questions clearly.
Unexpectedly, he was interrupted by Kong Huiduan just as he drew the formation.
Kong Huiduan is a disciple of Chen Ke. He is one of the best young disciples in terms of magic skills. Apart from Ji Chu, the "relative" who suddenly appeared, Kong Huiduan is the one Chen Ke likes the most.
And this senior brother Kong Huiduan never disappoints everyone's expectations. He has the same personality as Shen Ke that makes Ji Chu hate him.
Hearing that Xu Ying had offended him somehow before, he relied on his status as the eldest disciple of Guangxuan Peak to make things difficult for Xu Ying in everything.
Now that they had finally caught the opportunity, the "villain" naturally took advantage of the situation and used the sect's rules for assigning tasks to pressure them:
"Disciples must not endanger the people while on missions. If the Soul Gathering Formation attracts other evil spirits, who will be responsible for the safety of the people living below the mountain?"
Kong Huiduan was determined to stop Xu Ying and the others from drawing the formation to gather souls, and asked them to bring Ge Er's ghost back to the sect immediately to report.
"You're crazy! You said we need the sect's approval before we can start the formation. Everyone knows that the souls that stayed at the place of death and before death have the best chance of gathering. By the time we return to the sect and wait for the elders' approval, Ge Er's soul will be gone!"
"We three monks are here, how could we allow the evil ghost to hurt people?! He is just looking for trouble!"
Xu Ying and the other two were in a stalemate with Kong Huiduan. They couldn't activate the soul gathering formation and were accused of "acting recklessly".
Seeing that Ge Er's ghost was about to collapse, and as this matter concerned Ji Chu's innocence and the murderer of his fellow disciples, Xu Ying could no longer tolerate it and immediately drew his sword and rushed forward.
Jiang Chengxu and she had a perfect understanding. As soon as the sword was unsheathed, he immediately pulled Chen Wu to start the battle.
Kong Huiduan didn't expect Xu Ying to dare to attack him directly, so he quickly waved out the talisman to block her sword.
The jade gourd tied around his waist was blown by the sword wind, revealing a crack. A stream of demonic energy rushed out of it and hit the edge of the soul gathering formation, reversing the formation into a "soul-destroying formation".
The difference of one word turned it from a life formation of "gathering souls" into a death formation of "destroying souls".
Kong Huiduan hurriedly used his spiritual power to suppress the contents of the jade gourd.
The ghost of Ge Er in the center of the formation began to dissipate.
Chen Wu was startled and subconsciously reached out to pull it.
But his cultivation was too low, and he couldn't keep his body steady at all, so he and Ge Er's residual soul were pulled into the center of the formation.
Jiang Chengxu hurriedly tried to pull Chen Wu, but he was dragged a few steps towards the center of the formation and managed to keep his balance.
Ge Er's ghost was sucked tightly into the soul-destroying formation and could not be pulled out no matter what.
Jiang Chengxu shouted at Chen Wu:
"Release that ghost!"
Chen Wu shook his head first:
"No, he knows who the murderer is and can testify for Senior Sister Ji!"
Then he realized that doing so would only implicate Jiang Chengxu, and when he wanted to let go, he found that he could not let go of the ghost claw at all.
Chen Wu's voice trembled:
"My constitution is too yin, and I've been sucked into the formation. Brother Jiang, please let go..."
Jiang Chengxu is usually very easy to talk to, but at this moment he pursed his lips and said nothing, still holding him tightly.
Ge Er's residual soul was almost refined by the formation, and the ghost energy dissipated a lot. The soul-destroying formation turned and began to attack Chen Wu.
He instinctively felt that his right hand, which was holding Ge Er's ghost, began to feel numb and cold, and he felt a pain as if his soul was being crushed. His whole body moved uncontrollably towards the center of the formation.
"Let me go..."
Seeing Jiang Chengxu being led by him to slide a few steps towards the center of the formation, Chen Wu wanted to cry.
Suddenly, there was another hand on his wrist.
Xu Ying shook off Kong Huiduan's attempt to stop her and flew over to grab Chen Wu in time:
"Stop the bullshit! If you're a man, hold on tight!"
She and Jiang Chengxu held Chen Wu tightly, neither of them refusing to let go.
Kong Huiduan was furious when he saw this scene, but he had to worry about the contents of the jade gourd, so he could only shout at Xu Ying:
"Idiot! Do you want to die with them?"
