Chapter 90 Is this an urban cultivation novel?
He has the power of words to protect himself, but Qiu Tingxu's mind-reading ability seems useless at this time.
Rounding off means there is no ability to protect oneself.
But there is still a question here. He asked: "Even if I have the power of words, can I speak in water?"
Nie Jianxi took out another talisman like a magician and said with a smile, "This is unfortunate. I have a water-avoiding talisman here that can protect you for a while. During this time, the river water cannot touch you at all."
"But only for half a moment."
From what Qiu Tingxu meant, Xu Yansheng was planning to go up himself.
He quickly stopped her: "No, what do you mean? You are a landlubber, and you still want to go down to the river?"
Xu Yansheng didn't look at him. He looked at the dark whirlpool under the calm river and said in a hoarse voice, "Actually, I can swim."
Qiu Tingxu: “???”
"What did you say? Say it again?"
Xu Yansheng tilted his head to look at him and said seriously again: "I can swim."
"When I was little, they often pushed me into the water. I didn't want to drown, so I learned to swim."
This move, this move is called admitting mistakes while playing the victim, trying to reduce someone's anger to the lowest level.
As a result, when Qiu Tingxu heard the following words, his anger level, which was already a little bit, dropped to the bottom.
But he still said with a straight face: "Then why did you lie to me last time?"
Xu Yansheng: "I want to try what it feels like to be taught to swim properly."
Qiu Tingxu: ...
Knock, you really know how to control me, brother.
He ignored Xu Yansheng and turned to ask Nie Jianxi: "Is it dangerous?"
Nie Jianxi shook his head: "Not big. Look, this drowned ghost is the guardian ghost of the formation."
Qiu Tingxu went to see the female ghost in red and found that her dark eyeballs were about to pop out.
She was obviously very excited and trying to break free from the suppression of the talisman, her facial expression was very ferocious.
“Mmmmm!!”
Let me go, you dogs!
Luo Qingfeng also came up and asked curiously: "Why is she so excited all of a sudden? It's as if we are going to dig her grave."
Nie Jianxi looked at him with amusement, "It's almost done. I think the thing holding up the formation is her corpse. If we want to destroy the formation, we naturally have to use Taoism to destroy the corpse. She has karma, and if the corpse is destroyed, her soul will fly away."
"Now that he heard we were going to destroy the formation, he panicked."
Luo Qingfeng looked at Nie Jianxi in worship and exclaimed: "Wow, we both have nine years of compulsory education, why are you so outstanding?"
Nie Jianxi: "Thank you, you are not bad either."
"Okay, no more small talk, Xu Yansheng, are you ready?"
Xu Yansheng looked at him coldly, "What do you need to prepare?"
Nie Jianxi handed him the water-repellent talisman: "Put it in a safe place. If you accidentally leave it, the river water will rush towards you."
"Remember where the eye of the vortex is now. When you go down, I will protect you and temporarily suppress the vortex. I don't know how long it can be maintained. You must come up as soon as possible."
After saying that, he took out another Five Emperors Coin, which was covered with verdigris. It felt like it had just been dug out of the ground. The soil had been washed away, but the verdigris remained.
It looks very antique at first glance.
"When you see the center of the formation, just throw the Five Emperors Coins over there without thinking twice."
"You also need to recite 'The evil will dissipate, the spirit of the Way will live forever, hurry up and obey the command.'"
Xu Yansheng: "...Is it necessary to recite it?"
Nie Jianxi: "If you are full of righteousness, you don't need to chant, but I have never seen anyone who can eliminate evil spirits without chanting."
Xu Yansheng was silent.
Qiu Tingxu interrupted: "How about I read it?"
Nie Jianxi rejected him: "Your language lacks the bonus of the Word Spirit Technique, and you are still a Taoist layman, so the spells you chant will have no effect."
Qiu Tingxu: ...I am not worthy of it.
He glanced over and found that the female ghost began to tremble as soon as she saw the Five Emperors' Coins. The black color in her gloomy eyes seemed to be about to come out.
For some reason, Qiu Tingxu sensed great sorrow and resentment.
He was moved and asked Nie Jianxi: "Should we just let this ghost fly away? Don't we need to investigate?"
Nie Jianxi glanced at him and said thoughtfully, "That makes sense. I think you should go down with Xu Yansheng."
"When your mind-reading ability is close to someone and there are strong emotional fluctuations, it will produce a resonance effect. If you are lucky, empathic memory will appear."
"If she had her own reasons, you would definitely be able to empathize with her when she was asked to plead guilty."
"But she has already accumulated karma, and her soul will surely be scattered. There is no room for redemption, otherwise it would be unfair to the corpses filling the river."
"So, the preliminary investigation of this matter is left to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Yansheng gave him a cold look.
He arranged for Qiu Tingxu to join in just a few words, as if the first arrangement was just to expose the fact that Xu Yansheng could swim.
It was difficult for Xu Yansheng to have a good attitude towards him.
But in fact, no matter whether he went down alone or with Qiu Tingxu, the truth that he could swim would be revealed.
So Nie Jianxi didn't feel guilty at all, and looked at him with a gentle smile.
He fumbled in his pocket for a while and took out another talisman.
He was surprised and said, "Oh, there is a water-repellent charm. It happens that each of you has one. You must not lose it."
He handed both the Water Repellent Talisman and the Sky Eye Talisman to Qiu Tingxu and said with a smile: "This is your chance, seize it. After completing a few missions, you won't have to rely on Xu Yansheng to block your mind reading ability."
Qiu Tingxu was surprised. Is there such a good thing?
Nie Jianxi noticed his surprise and said, "His shielding range has become larger now, hasn't it? That's because your compatibility with him has become stronger."
Qiu Tingxu thought to himself, no wonder he didn't hear other people's voices last time in the villa when they were so far away from him, so that's why.
But what is compatibility?
Xu Yansheng interrupted their conversation and asked coldly: "How do we get down?"
You can't just jump down, right?
Nie Jianxi apologized: "Oh, sorry, I forgot about that."
He frowned and reached his hand into his pocket, causing Qiu Tingxu, Luo Qingfeng and Wen Lang to stare at him, wanting to see what he could pull out.
Then he pulled out two delicate strings from his pocket.
Luo Qingfeng: "Oh my god, are you really the reincarnation of Doraemon? This is clearly Doraemon's pocket!"
Nie Jianxi was puzzled: "Huh? This is just a rare storage bag. Who is Doraemon? Does he also have a storage bag?"
Luo Qingfeng: "...Uh, Doraemon is a blue cat."
"Its pocket is connected to another dimension. Haha, that's awesome."
"But you even have storage bags. Are we living in a city of immortals?"
Nie Jianxi asked them to help tie up Xu Yansheng and Qiu Tingxu, and said as he worked, "No, there is too little spiritual energy in the world now. Only people with extremely high talents can learn some Taoist methods, but it is impossible to cultivate immortality."
The rope was not tied tightly, and was even loose. Qiu Tingxu felt it and seriously doubted that the protection was not adequate.
"Should it be tied tighter?"
Nie Jianxi shook his head: "No, these ropes are magic tools, they will tie you up at the critical moment."
"But you have to touch them and order them to bring you up. There is another problem. They are ancient objects with tempers. They may not obey, but they will definitely listen to Xu Yansheng."
Qiu Tingxu: "...You used the word 'bundle' very cleverly."
"It seems that your magic weapon is not very reliable."
