Chapter 12 Clue: The Paper Merchant at Wangyou Villa
Ji Ci stared at the man in green shirt in the distance, his brows slightly relaxed. These were just the two most basic mantras of using the flag.
Maybe this was just an accident.
The next second, he saw Yin Zhiyi using the Yaozhan Banner to disperse the group of infant spirits.
I couldn't help but sneer.
What should he do?
He and Bai Zhixing had thought of this method at the beginning, but the speed of dispersing them could not keep up with the speed of gathering them.
You know, the biggest characteristic of infant spirits is their fast speed.
Yin Zhiyi threw the Bagua mirror in his hand to the people in the formation: "Raise the Bagua mirror above your head."
Then he shouted loudly: "Master Bai Tian, remove the protective shield!"
Bai Zhixing hesitated slightly, but when she met Yin Zhiyi's eyes, she decided to take a gamble.
The people in the protective shield panicked and started to curse: "Master Bai Tian, don't listen to her! She's trying to kill us!"
Even the Heavenly Master cannot escape the attack of the infant spirit! Letting them go out would be courting death!
If...if I were haunted by the baby spirit...
Everyone looked at the pile of rotten meat on the ground not far away.
The people on the ground were covered in pus, with their skin bursting and piled loosely on top of each other. Even just a glance at the sight made one's scalp tingle, it was shocking.
The people on the ground had long since died, but white egg cells were still bulging out of the rotten flesh.
Yin Zhiyi saw clearly what it was at a glance. It was the mother's body parasitized by the infant spirit.
As for that face, it also looks familiar. Isn’t this the second uncle of the original owner?
One of the servants looked at her fiercely. He was delivering something from a farm outside the city. He had long heard that the young lady of the city lord's mansion was vicious and mean. He cursed at her: "I knew you had bad intentions and pretended to come to save us! Bitch!"
"Aren't you infected with evil spirits? Why don't you just die?"
Although the other few people didn't say anything, the looks in their eyes spoke for themselves.
Yin Guiyuan couldn't bear to hear his precious daughter being insulted like this, and he didn't even care about the dignity of the city lord. He immediately kicked the man several times while cursing.
The man seemed to have just woken up from a dream and seemed to realize what he had said.
Yin Zhiyi had no time to pay attention to him.
Seeing Bai Zhixing performing the gestures without hesitation, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and smile.
She thought it would take some talking.
Bai Zhixing was stunned. This seemed to be the first smile that the city lord's daughter had shown her since she met her.
She is graceful and bright.
When she met the two men for the first time, she had completely different feelings about them.
She seldom paid attention to a person's appearance. The principle of the Southern School of Heavenly Masters was not to judge people by their material possessions. But at the moment, she could not ignore the resoluteness and confidence in the girl's eyes and actions.
Yin Zhiyi faced the panicked crowd and shouted, "Raise the Bagua mirrors in your hands above your heads!"
The servant was a little upset: "We are not heavenly masters! Why should we come?"
Yin Zhiyi met his questioning gaze and said coldly: "You don't have to listen if you want to die."
Yin Guiyuan grabbed Yin Zhiyi's arm and said, "Girl!"
His eyes were full of worry. He knew that his daughter knew some magic, but those were only the basics. This was really too risky.
He was anxious and angry.
Yin Zhiyi met his gaze with a burning look: "Trust me."
She faced a row of Bagua mirrors, chanting spells and making hand gestures.
After a few breaths, all the Bagua mirrors began to grow larger and emit golden light.
It's like having shields on top of your head.
She stirred the banner in her hand, and all the infant spirits scattered at once. She used the remaining Bagua mirror in her hand to isolate the infant spirits.
For the infant spirits that were captured by the banner, it was like falling into a red-hot iron pot when they touched the Bagua mirror.
Roasted, burned, and then turned into nothing.
This action made everyone look confused and uncertain, but Bai Zhixing's eyes lit up.
He immediately started chanting the spell to drive the Bagua mirror.
However, there are still too many infant spirits in the air. The scattered infant spirits will gather together again after a short stay, and there are also endless infant spirits being bred from the egg cells.
Yin Zhiyi's gaze stayed on the swollen abscess.
The infant spirits were stimulated and rushed towards her.
This body was not as strong as her own. When Yin Zhiyi activated the Bagua Mirror and the Yaozhan Banner, her forehead was already covered with cold sweat.
When it comes to things like infant spirits, you cannot actively attack them and can only adopt roundabout tactics.
Yin Zhiyi could only keep dodging.
She made up her mind and whispered, "Yuqing has issued an order, and the sky will be split by thunder." Suddenly, a white light appeared and thunder resounded.
As everyone closed their eyes, lightning struck the lump of rotten flesh that was still continuously giving birth to baby spirits.
For a moment, pieces of flesh mixed with pus scattered everywhere like bursting liquid.
The stench was everywhere.
Everyone took a step back at the same time.
Ji Ci was the closest and was the first to be hit. Even though he dodged very quickly, he still inevitably got some of it on him.
He felt a fishy smell rushing up to his head and he almost vomited.
Xiao Cui swallowed her saliva: "Why did a white light suddenly appear just now?"
"Ji...Tianshi did it, right? He was the closest."
Because of the different directions, no one saw Yin Zhiyi take action.
The boy who was yelling earlier was obviously frightened by the scene before him. He trembled and said, "Buddha bless you!"
Ji Ci frowned, he didn't even have time to do anything.
He turned his gaze to Yin Zhiyi. He had never noticed such an inconspicuous young lady from an official family before, but at this moment he couldn't help but look at her with a bit of inquiry.
It was actually she who came up with this method of blocking and killing.
Yin Zhiyi threw the Yaozhan Banner in his hand back to Ji Ci, signaling him to continue.
After all, the Yaozhan Banner can only exert its greatest effect when it is in the hands of the male protagonist.
She was too lazy to put in any more effort.
However, without the injection of fresh blood, it is only a matter of time before this group of infant spirits are completely eliminated by using Yaozhanfan and Bagua Mirror to block and kill them.
Yin Zhiyi covered her wrist and felt a sharp pain. She could even feel the evil energy in her body becoming increasingly active.
I looked up at the sun, which was almost halfway up the mountain. No wonder, the closer it got to evening, the more symptoms of being infected by the evil spirit would become apparent.
But fortunately, it can still be suppressed a little.
Finally, when the last infant spirit disappeared on the Bagua mirror, everyone's nervous hearts finally settled down.
Bai Zhixing and Ji Ci were both seriously injured, so everyone immediately sent someone to call for a doctor.
As for Yan Shiman and Li You who were still waiting outside the City Lord's Mansion, they originally wanted to send guards to notify them, but were stopped by Yin Zhiyi.
-
As soon as she stepped out of the door, she saw Yan Shiman from afar.
When she got closer and saw that they were safe and sound, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Asked: "Did any dirty creature come here just now?"
Yin Zhiyi could feel that the talisman she had previously cast on Li You showed signs of loosening.
A trace of blood flowed from the corner of Yan Shiman's mouth. He spoke weakly, motioning Yin Zhiyi to look at the two pools of black blood beside him: "It's okay, ahem... Miss, don't worry, they are just two infant spirits."
"I have dealt with it."
Yin Zhiyi glanced at the wound on his chest that had opened again: [This second male lead is too easily injured. It seems like I have to find him something to save his life next time. 】
After all, although her peach wood red rope is extremely powerful, its disadvantages are also obvious. It will not be triggered unless she is on the verge of death.
She turned her head to look at Li You beside her, and after a closer look, she only saw a few scratches on her neck, and the rest was fine.
There was a hint of timidity in Li You's eyes. She wanted to tell Yin Zhiyi everything that had happened before, but the restraints on her neck were warning her all the time.
As soon as she raised her head, her eyes met Yan Shiman who was standing behind Yin Zhiyi.
That cold, venomous voice rang in her ears again.
"You know what to say and what not to say. Just listen and we'll be fine. What do you think?"
"Otherwise."
Yan Shi had a gentle smile on his face, but Li You knew that this person was completely different from what he looked like.
She only saw the black line in the hand of the person in front of her, which coiled around her neck like a flexible snake and then disappeared.
She struggled frantically but to no avail.
"See this black line? It will strangle you to death."
It was not until Li You was pushed by Yin Zhiyi that he came back to his senses.
Yin Zhiyi looked at Liyou suspiciously.
I felt puzzled: [What’s wrong with this person? Why does it feel like there's something weird going on between her and the second male lead? 】
Fortunately, this atmosphere did not last long and was broken by Xiao Cui who came over.
Yin Guiyuan also learned from the two Heavenly Masters that several people encountered something that could not be dissolved on the road.
He quickly sent someone to prepare a new carriage.
Yin Guiyuan paced in the hall: "Yin Chengfeng's death was his own fault! I never thought that I would raise such an ungrateful person, oh!"
"It just delayed my daughter's life-saving time."
He felt sick when he thought about Yin Chengfeng asking the servant beside him to spread these talisman papers in the talisman. Fortunately, Zhiyi slipped him a note before leaving, and he sent people to monitor Yin Chengfeng, otherwise, all the people in the City Lord's Mansion would probably suffer the same fate as him.
Bai Zhixing said seriously: "City Lord Yin, do you know where the evil thing in Yin Chengfeng's hand came from?"
Ever since the paper-figure incident, Yin Guiyuan was not completely unguarded against Yin Chengfeng. He immediately sent people to investigate, but he was still a step too late.
"I only know that the paper talisman was sold to him by a foreign businessman named Zhang. The people I sent did not find the talisman paper."
Yin Guiyuan only felt pain in his temples, and held his forehead with his hand, saying, "In fact, there were many merchants from other places who came to Yunsang City to sell paper-made items in the past. Most of them came from the west, and it seems that they came from the area of Wangyou Villa. I didn't notice anything wrong at first..."
He let out a long sigh.
Bai Zhixing frowned slightly. He was also a paper-making merchant from Wangyou Villa. He was like this before when he was in Yunyi County.
This is also why her destination before coming to Yunsang City was Wangyou Villa.
Yin Guiyuan told Bai Zhixing all the information he knew and continued to add some details, fearing that Bai Zhixing didn't understand it clearly enough.
Bai Zhixing pondered: "Based on these alone, we cannot be sure that the problem lies with the paper-made items made by foreign merchants."
"However, there are indeed problems with those paper figurines and talisman papers. Moreover, the previous evil spirit and this infant spirit come from the same source."
