Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 511: Horse Immortal (4000)

Hearing Zhen Mi's explanation, Wu Liang was much relieved.

Although this "seven kills" fate is extremely fierce, but as long as it is handled properly, it can also be turned into a great achievement. It seems that it is not as bad as imagined.

As for whether he can bear it and hold it down.

Wu Liang is not too worried about this question. He feels that although he does not have the ambition to compete in the Central Plains, his drive, perseverance, ambition and courage are still reasonable. After all, if a normal person has experienced those near-death experiences he encountered in the ancient tomb In addition to the dangerous situation, and now that the little life itself is going well, there should be few people who can change their original intentions like him.

So he still has some confidence in himself, even if he can't bear it and bear it, at least he won't be so easily crushed.

As for whether what Zhen Mi said was true, Wu Liang looked into Zhen Mi's eyes subconsciously.

This pair of eyes does not belong to ordinary people at first glance, and she did not deny the relationship with Tu Shannvjiao. It must be known that Tushannvjiao is an old monster thousands of years ago. Believe it, so what she said naturally has some merits, you can't believe it all, but you can't believe it.

What's more, there is no conflict of interest between him and Tu Shannvjiao, Wu Liang can't think of any substantive benefits she can get by cheating him like this.

To sum up, Wu Liang decided to temporarily accept the "seven kills" fate.

It's just that this matter of fate cannot be publicized. If Boss Cao listens to it, he will probably worry about whether he will overwhelm the host with his character, and the harmless image that Wu Liang has worked so hard to create in front of Boss Cao will also be affected. .

"Are you afraid?"

Seeing Wu Liang frowned, Zhen Mi thought he was worried that he would not be able to control the "Seven Kills" fate, so she pursed her lips and said contemptuously, "But you should indeed be afraid, at your age Still accomplishing nothing, and without a family background to rely on, she has been reduced to the situation of being a servant, and she doesn't seem to be able to control such a fate."

"Young lady said..."

Seeing what Zhen Mi said, Wu Liang admitted with a low eyebrow.

But in fact, he felt a little more relaxed. This at least proved that although Zhen Mi was related to Tu Shannvjiao, she was not an omnipotent and omniscient evildoer.

Otherwise, how could she not be able to see through her disguised identity?
This is naturally a good thing for Wu Liang, and it shows that he still has room to maneuver in this matter, and he doesn't have to be in a passive position blindly.

"However, you still have some backbone. If ordinary people heard this, they should have knelt on the ground and begged me for advice on how to resolve the evil spirit in fate."

Zhen Mi said again in an appreciative tone.

I don't know if I really appreciate him, or if I don't want to hurt Wu Liang and comfort him against my will.

"My son, is there a way to resolve this evil of fate?"

Wu Liang followed Zhen Mi's meaning and asked.

"No."

Zhen Mi showed a playful look, looked at him with a half smile and said, "This fate is innate, if you want to turn evil into good luck, outsiders absolutely cannot interfere, and you can only rely on yourself."

"..."

Wu Liang pursed his mouth when he heard the words.

He has already seen that Zhen Mi completely regards him as a toy to relieve boredom, or it can be said that the one who treats him as a toy is actually Tu Shannvjiao, her aloof attitude has never changed for a moment.

But that's fine too.

The more Zhen Mi doesn't take him seriously at this moment, the more leeway he has to manipulate, and it's easier to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger... Otherwise, facing such an old monster who may have lived for thousands of years, he really doesn't know How to deal with it.

"Hehe, you are really scared. From this point of view, you are probably not him. If it were him, it would be too late to be happy if you got this fortune telling."

Zhen Mi smiled coquettishly as if she was winning, and said aggressively on purpose.

"In that case, can the villain be allowed to retire?"

Wu Liang heard the aggressiveness in Zhen Mi's words, and decisively chose to lie flat again.

"presumptuous!"

Zhen Mi immediately straightened up, stared and scolded, "What do you think I am here, do you come and go whenever you want? You can just turn around and leave, and I will teach you how to write dead characters right away." !"

"My son, you are a high-ranking goddess, why bother to make things difficult for me, a little-known junior like me?"

Wu Liang said with a mournful face.

"I have my reasons."

Zhen Mi glanced at him, and finally said again, "I see that you also have many questions in your mind, I am in a good mood today, if you have anything to ask, please ask now, I may kindly give you an understanding. "

"Uh……"

Seeing that Zhen Mi took the initiative to give the opportunity, Wu Liang couldn't wait for it, but he still showed a cautious look on his face, and asked cautiously, "Will the villain always answer whatever the villain asks? Will she definitely not get angry?" ?”

"That depends on what you're asking."

Zhen Mi squinted.

"..."

Wu Liang silently closed his mouth and lowered his head.

"Are you asking or not? I'm not angry!"

When Zhen Mi saw this, she became furious, she had never seen such a man with ink stains, he was simply unworthy of being a man, if it wasn't for Wu Liang's special taste, she would have been unable to hold back her temper and slapped him to death long ago.

"Ask... I, I will ask."

Wu Liang shivered, and hurriedly stammered and asked, "I want to know... what's the matter with the girl's eyes? How can it be completely different from the one I saw during the day?"

"Just ask this?"

Zhen Mi rolled his eyes at him, and asked back, "Have you ever heard of the word shaman?"

"I've heard a little bit about it."

Wu Liang nodded slightly.

As far as he knows, the only thing related to shaman in China is "primitive shamanism". .

In the tribal period before the Celestial Dynasty, Shang and Zhou Dynasties, "witchcraft" was in the hands of the "wizards" of the major tribes. These witchcraft include but are not limited to praying, prophecy, dream interpretation, astrology, healing, etc., which are closely related to people's lives. Of course, it also includes many methods that are called "sorcery" by later generations, and they were all called "witchcraft" at that time.

you could put it that way.

The witchcraft mastered by the "shaman" of "primitive shamanism" is the predecessor of alchemy, Taoism and sorcery that are well-known in later generations.

In fact, there is another saying in the world:
Alchemy, Taoism and sorcery are just a small amount of witchcraft left over by luck. In this view, wizards are not predecessors, but ancestors. They are the inevitable products of the development of ancient civilizations in another direction. It is also a mysterious power that is extremely difficult to master for some reason.

So it is.

There were so many mysterious myths and legends in ancient times, and many strange arts that still affect people in all aspects in later generations, such as almanac, feng shui, fate, physiognomy, dream interpretation, etc. Dating back to the distant ancient times, and even more distant.

"I underestimated you, but you are not ignorant."

Zhen Mi glanced at Wu Liang in surprise, and then continued to ask, "Then do you know what it means to occupy an aperture?"

"Obsession?"

Wu Liang was stunned, cupped his hands and said, "Young man has little knowledge, please let me know."

"Occupying tricks, as the name suggests, is a way for the immortal family to possess the tricks of mortals and convey their wishes by possessing the body."

Zhen Mi said solemnly, "You should know that humans have nine orifices in total. The ears are the fine orifices, the eyes are the divine orifices, the mouth and nose are the seven orifices, and the other two are the turbid orifices. The orifices connect the soul to the soul. And the only way to enter is that mortals can't see the fairy family without the eyes of the sky, and the fairy family can't communicate directly with mortals. If you want to convey the will to mortals, you need to achieve it through the method of orifice... and you see my eyes are completely different from those in the daytime , that’s the reason, even though it’s her you see now, it’s actually me who is talking.”

"This……"

It was the first time for Wu Liang to hear such a statement. After staring into Zhen Mi's eyes for a while to digest, he still felt that the matter was too shocking, so he asked again, "In this way, my previous address was wrong. You should honorably call him a Great Immortal...but I still have one thing that I don't understand, if the Great Immortal can occupy the nine orifices of a person, can it be anyone's body?"

"Of course not."

Zhen Mi snorted, shook her head and said, "You may be oversimplifying this matter. The nine orifices of a person are an important gateway to connect the soul to the soul, so naturally they also have an innate defense mechanism. Otherwise, if some bullshit Ghosts, gods and snakes can get on their bodies casually, wouldn't the world be in chaos?"

"..."

Wu Liang saw that Zhen Mi hadn't finished speaking, so he just nodded slightly and continued to listen.

really.

Zhen Mi paused for a moment and then continued: "If you want to gain the orifice, you need to go through the orifice first. There are also two types of combat, one is martial arts and the other is literary combat."

"This kind of martial arts is much simpler. If you choose a suitable person, make him suffer a serious illness, or make him experience life and death, there will be a chance to loosen the nine orifices, so that you can take advantage of it. However, although this method is fast Direct, but there is a great chance of accidents, the body of a mortal is fragile, if life is not hard enough, if you are not careful, you will die, and all previous efforts will be wasted."

"In addition, even if this method is mastered, it is possible that the immortal family will be tied to the mortal when they occupy the aperture. At that time, the immortal family will not be able to escape. If the annoying person dies, the immortal family will also be buried with him. It is too risky. Therefore, as a last resort, I will definitely not use it."

Why does this "martial arts" sound so much like seizing a house?
Wu Liang thought to himself.

In fact, there are still some differences. Binding into a dead orifice means that the immortal family has completely occupied the body and soul of the mortal, and they cannot leave by themselves. He tied himself to a tree and hanged himself.

"And this text is much gentler. After choosing a suitable person, you have to be with him since childhood, take good care of him, and give advice in times of crisis, so that he can gradually recognize the existence of the fairy family, and then look for opportunities one by one. Try the tricks of intrusion, don't act too hastily, and when the time is ripe, you can enter with all nine orifices and coexist harmoniously with it."

"The only fly in the ointment is that this article is a test of patience. It can take as little as ten years, or as long as decades, and sometimes even mortals can't succeed until they die of old age. It's really annoying."

"However, if it succeeds, it will be a good thing, at least it can guarantee peace of mind for decades."

Speaking of this, Zhen Mi's pretty face revealed a look of complacency, it seemed that she should be Wen Da's completed trick, otherwise she would have exposed her weakness if she talked about these things with Wu Liang.

Hearing this, Wu Liang also had a general understanding of the so-called "Zhanqiao".

Isn't this the "Horse Immortal" that is still rumored in later generations?
As far as Wu Liang knows, "Chuma Xian" is a continuation of the original shamanism tradition, and this kind of great immortal refers to the five great immortals of fox, snake, weasel, hedgehog and mouse.

If so.

Then Zhen Mi's identity at this moment should be a disciple of the Immortal Family. When the Immortal Family was born, she was the Great Immortal. If there is divine help in making decisions and curing diseases, she maintains her mortal identity and lifestyle on weekdays. , no different from ordinary people.

"in this case……"

Wu Liang still pondered and said, "I heard that when this young lady of the Zhen family was young, there were often mysterious black shadows covering her body with feathers, and she was different from ordinary people's precocity when she was three years old, and she was often alone. Talking to herself, crying and laughing, dancing lightly, these strange things should be caused by the immortal, right?"

"You are very good at associating, but I have taught you to say it."

Zhen Mi smiled sweetly and nodded slightly.

"I see."

Wu Liang finally connected all his previous questions together, and Zhen Mi's situation was very clear.

As for whether the heroine in Cao Zhi's "Luo Shen Fu" is Zhen Mi, and whether Zhen Mi is the ancestor of the "Shen Tiaomen" in the folklore of later generations, Wu Liang also has a judgment-[-]% yes!
Because the "jumping god" of "Shen Tiaomen" is actually one of the unique skills of the disciples.

At the same time, Wu Liang also figured out the main reason why he and Prince Chamu were so fascinated by Zhen Mi when they first met Zhen Mi. Firstly, it is undeniable that she is indeed beautiful, which makes it hard not to be moved; secondly, It may be because of the blessing of her status as a disciple, not to mention that she is a disciple of the fox fairy, so that her every gesture exudes a man's irresistible magic.

The only problem is.

In the history, Zhen Mi died a terrible death, she was covered in the face, and her mouth was covered with chaff, which still made Wu Liang feel puzzled, she was a disciple of the horse, and there was a great fairy standing behind her, how could she end up like this?

However, Wu Liang felt that the purpose of this trip had been basically fulfilled after the investigation reached this step.

As for Zhen Mi, he naturally didn't want to continue to provoke her. After all, behind her is a fox fairy who has lived for thousands of years, and if the legend is correct, it may be a nine-tailed demon fox with deep morality.

Wu Liang is self-aware, this kind of immortal is obviously not something he can afford to provoke, it's better to get rid of the relationship as soon as possible...
