Fang Hui’s voice immediately rose eight feet: “Poisoned?!”
“It’s the poison that makes people comatose…” Ning Helan said slowly, “What did we eat or drink in Taoist Mingxin’s room…”
Fang Hui recalled: “Are you saying that the tea is poisonous?”
Ning Helan shook her head lightly: “Not necessarily, I’m more inclined to think that the incense is poisonous.”
Fang Hui recalled that in Taoist Mingxin’s room, the faint sandalwood burning on the table smelled good, but he didn’t expect it to be a drug incense.
"Tsk, this old Taoist priest, he helped me get into the container, and I thought he was a good person..." Fang Hui cursed, "Little Taoist priest, you should tell me now, what is that burnt bark of yours? What is the fire spell?"
Ning Helan took out the burnt bark from her bag and took a look at it, then handed it to Fang Hui: "Here."
Fang Hui took it and took a look, but didn't see anything: "Is there anything special about this burnt bark?"
"I found this next to my parents' grave, and there is still some evil spirit left on it." Ning Helan said, "I went to your mother's grave later, and the remaining evil spirit is the same."
"Demonic aura?" Fang Hui stared and looked over and over for a long time but couldn't make out anything. "How did you see the evil aura?"
Ning Helan said, "Put your hands over it."
Fang Hui did as he was told. His palms became hotter and hotter, until he could hardly hold it steady. He pulled his hands back suddenly, and the bark fell to the ground.
Fang Hui glanced at his palms and found that his skin had turned red: "Oh my god, this bark is a warm baby. The more I touch it, the hotter it gets."
Ning Helan picked up the bark and put it in front of her eyes: "This feeling is a kind of demonic energy."
Fang Hui rubbed his hands and suddenly thought: "That's not right. Taoist Mingxin is a Taoist priest. What does the demonic energy on this bark have to do with him?"
"..." Ning Helan is not sure now. When he came into contact with Mingxin just now, there was no demonic energy on his body, but the fire spell he used at the end was very similar to the breath left on this piece of burnt bark. What's going on?
Seeing Ning Helan staring at the bark in a daze, Fang Hui felt bored too, so he picked up a scripture at hand and flipped through it. Suddenly, his eyes lit up as he was flipping through it: "Hey, Ning Helan... Ning Helan, look at this."
He stuffed the scripture in front of Ning Helan: "Look here."
Ning Helan lowered his eyes and glanced at it. There were some ancient surnames and branches written on it. He scanned the following: "The surname Ning... originated from the surname Ji? "
It was written in the scripture: The historical book "Qianfu Lun" quoted "Shiben" and recorded: "The Ning family descended from Ji Wei, the son of Duke Wu of Wei. He was granted the fiefdom of Ning and took it as his surname."
Ning Helan remained silent, while Fang Hui was a little excited: "Look, I said we are relatives. Your surname is Ning, and my mother's surname is Ji. We are also a family for several generations. So, I am your cousin."
Is it really such a coincidence? Ning Helan saw in the back of the scripture that the surname Ji branched out into more than 800 surnames. If this is a coincidence, it is not surprising.
"Cousin, I just looked around, and guess what, this scripture building only has two small windows on the top, and no door. Hey, don't you think it's strange?" Fang Hui said with his hands behind his back and shaking his head.
Ning Helan frowned slightly: "I ask you to be normal."
Fang Hui exclaimed: "Little Taoist priest, I'm serious, this Sutra Building has no door."
The Sutra Building is about four stories high, and the surroundings are sealed with bricks and cement walls. There are only two very small windows at the top, and even an adult's head can't stick out of the window.
Since there is no door, how did they throw Fang Hui and himself in?
Ning Helan used the talisman paper as a flashlight and walked around the Sutra Tower. He reached out and touched the wall and found some special places: "There used to be a door here, but it was later sealed."
Fang Hui bent down and took a closer look. Indeed, there was a clear bulge in the wall here, and there was also some uneven cement around it, which was obviously applied later: "Was there a door here before?"
"Yes." Ning Helan turned around and looked up, "Although I don't know why they sealed the door, maybe they didn't want people to come in..."
"If you don't want to let people in, just lock the door. At most, put a seal outside. Why do you need to tear down the door and fill it with cement?" Fang Hui said, "These Taoists are really weird."
Fang Hui was right. This practice of specifically tearing down the door was redundant. Ning Helan stared at this quiet building. Why did Mingxin throw them here? It seems that there is no barrier outside? Does Mingxin not want them to escape, or does he think they can't escape?
A small spider crawled up Fang Hui's trouser leg. Fang Hui shook his legs, and the spider fell down. The chicken next to him grabbed it and swallowed it into his stomach.
Fang Hui laughed: "Brother Ji, I locked you up here and let you eat well, right?"
Brother Ji shook his cockscomb and burped: "Burp~"
Suddenly, a very light strange sound came from the quiet building.
The two of them immediately shut up, and the sound rang again. The two looked in the direction of the sound, and a strong evil spirit came.
Ning Helan squinted his eyes. He couldn't see what was above him. Fang Hui beside him took a step back, looking grim: "Little Taoist priest, do you think that this Sutra Tower doesn't want people to come in, but doesn't want some things to go out?"
As Fang Hui finished speaking, Ning Helan saw many glowing red dots appearing above, and then the red dots slowly approached them. Ning Helan saw clearly that it was a huge spider, and those red dots were the spider's eyeballs!
"Hiss!" Fang Hui shuddered and shrank towards Ning Helan, "I seem to see a spider spirit."
"...Spider demon, judging from its size, it must have at least several hundred years of Taoist practice." Ning Helan's tone was neither anxious nor slow.
Fang Hui, who was standing next to him, widened his eyes: "Hundreds of years, my god... It's so scary..."
"Hiss..." The spider made a snake-like hissing sound from its mouth, and its eight eyeballs moved flexibly, with a long spider silk thread hanging from its butt.
For a while, the big spider did not move, and Ning Helan and Fang Hui also stood still, but when Brother Ji saw the big spider approaching, he shook the hair on his chest and puffed up.
"Brother Ji!" Ning Helan was startled.
"Click!" Brother Ji raised his chicken claw and grabbed one of the spider's eyes.
"Hiss!" One of the spider monster's eyes was scratched by Brother Ji, and green blood splashed out. It shook its head wildly in pain, trying to throw Brother Ji off.
"Run!" Ning Helan shouted, grabbed Brother Ji and ran upstairs, Fang Hui followed closely behind.
"Brother Ji, you are too strong!" Fang Hui shouted while running. Doesn't this chicken know what size difference is, what fear is?
"Hey." Brother Ji didn't seem to understand what he had done.
Fang Hui ran and looked back. The spider monster followed closely behind them, eight legs crawling on the wall and running fast, raising clouds of stinging dust.
"Little Taoist priest, this thing is catching up!"
"Bang! Bang!" The big spider chased while attacking the two people with its two huge legs in front. The legs would leave a crack on the ground, and if it hit a person, it would definitely tear the skin apart.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The two of them had already run to the fourth floor with the chicken in their arms. This was the top floor of the Sutra Building, and there was no way up.
"Little Taoist Priest!" Seeing that the spider monster was about to get close to his face, Fang Hui was so scared that he called Ning Helan.
"Take it." Ning Helan stuffed the chicken into Fang Hui's arms, and then quickly pushed Fang Hui. One of the spider's legs just happened to pierce through the gap between the two of them, and almost pierced Fang Hui and the chicken into a string.
Ning Helan turned around and did a spinning kick, kicking away the spider demon's leg. Then, he ran forward and gave the spider demon a flying knee kick in the head. The spider demon wailed and was kicked off the ground. Its huge body lost its balance and fell backwards, rolling down the stairs.
Ning Helan landed and hurried to find an exit, but these two small windows were too small for even a chicken to pass through, let alone a human.
The spider demon's roar came from downstairs, and it was getting closer and closer. It seemed that the spider demon was about to climb up.
Ning Helan squatted down and first pasted two pieces of talisman paper on the staircase, then took out a piece of chalk and quickly drew a formation on the ground. Fang Hui hugged Ji Ge and watched Ning Helan's actions from behind: "Little Taoist priest, what are you going to do?"
"Deal with that spider." Ning Helan had just finished drawing the formation when the spider demon rushed up, waving its two front paws and pounced on the two people, but just as it reached the staircase, the barrier suddenly lit up, and the spider demon trembled all over as if it was entangled by an electric current and could not move.
"Hiss!"
Looking at the spider demon's painful appearance, Ning Helan took a step back, holding a piece of talisman paper in his hand and staring at the spider demon over there.
The spider demon struggled in pain, trying to destroy the talisman paper on the ground, but as soon as its legs touched the talisman paper, it was bounced away by a force, so the spider demon opened its mouth and sprayed a stream of mucus.
Fang Hui saw that the mucus stuck to the barrier in front of him, and the barrier was corroded bit by bit. The mucus dripped onto the ground, and the talisman paper was soon corroded, and the barrier disappeared.
Fang Hui felt his teeth tense: "Is it sulfuric acid that I sprayed here?"
"It's spider acid." Ning Helan said.
"Then why don't you take action? The chalk painting you drew on the ground should not be able to withstand the corrosion of this acid, right?" Fang Hui said.
Ning Helan didn't seem to be in a hurry. He watched the spider demon crawl over from the staircase and sprayed a stream of acid at the two of them.
"Be careful!" Ning Helan pulled Fang Hui behind him and threw out a talisman. When the talisman came into contact with the acid, the acid vaporized like an explosion.
The spider demon was furious, shaking its body and spraying out several streams of acid. Ning Helan threw out a few more talismans to neutralize its attack, and then pressed Fang Hui to the ground. A stream of acid flew over their heads, and the wall next to them was immediately corroded by the acid.
"Hide behind." Ning Helan said to Fang Hui. Fang Hui quickly got up from the ground and ran to the bookcase to hide. The chicken brother in his arms was struggling all the time, trying to rush over and fight with the spider demon.
Fang Hui had no choice but to hold it down firmly: "Brother Ji, can you be more obedient? How can you beat that spider monster that big? You will die if you go over to it..."
"Kuuu! Kuuu!" Brother Ji didn't listen to what Fang Hui said, flapping his wings, making his feathers fly.
The spider monster saw Ning Helan retreating step by step, so he hissed and flew over. Suddenly, he was startled, and it turned out that he had stepped into Ning Helan's formation.
The formation suddenly lit up, and a circle of translucent barriers appeared around the spider monster, surrounding it.
Ning Helan raised her fingers in front of her eyes, exhaled a breath of white air, her eyes lit up slightly, and she slowly chanted a spell: "Mysterious ice condenses energy, frost gathers spirits, cold light appears, freezes thousands, ice magic!"
There was no wind around the formation, the temperature dropped rapidly, a stream of air wrapped in a cold wind, and the wind carried sharp ice cones, which were fired at the spider monster like a machine gun.
The spider monster was hit by the ice cones and let out a series of wailing sounds. It tried to spray acid to resist the attack of the ice cones, but more and more ice cones appeared in the air. After a burst of bangs, the spider monster's huge body "boomed" and fell to the ground.
Ning Helan retracted his posture, Fang Hui poked his head out and looked at the motionless spider demon: "Is it over?"
But Ning Helan's expression did not show any relaxation, and he did not intend to put away the talisman paper between his fingers.
Suddenly, one of the spider demon's legs moved, and Fang Hui was shocked: "It's still moving!"
The spider demon curled up its abdomen, and suddenly a stream of white spider silk spurted out from its tail, and the spider silk wrapped itself up in circles.
"What is it doing? Is it going to become a cocoon?" The spider demon quickly wrapped itself into a cocoon with spider silk. Fang Hui was wondering, when suddenly there was a rustling sound all around, and Fang Hui was shocked to see countless spiders appearing around and crawling towards this side.
These spiders were big and small, and they moved very fast. Their legs scraped against the walls and the ground, making a rustling sound that gave people goosebumps.
Ning Helan took a step back, threw the talisman paper, and a semicircular barrier unfolded to cover him and Fang Hui. The spiders crawled towards the barrier one by one, and soon the barrier was filled with dense spiders.
"Click!" Brother Ji jumped out when Fang Hui wasn't paying attention and pecked at the spiders. Although he only killed one at a time, there were too many spiders. The entire ground, walls, and even the bookcases were covered with spiders. Fang Hui had never seen so many spiders in his life. He even felt that all the spiders in the world were here.
