The Trick of Longevity, Paper-cutting Becomes a Spirit

Chapter 142

This Lin Shangzhen is so scheming and terrifying, even here!

Thinking of this, Lu Qian couldn't help but secretly rejoice while being shocked.

Fortunately, he accidentally received Ji Siyu's ghost and learned what happened.

Fortunately, he shot decisively and killed this beast first!

If not, it is hard to predict what the consequences will be in the future.

Now, although Lin Shangzhen himself is dead, it is not necessarily that no one will inherit and use the backhand he set up during his lifetime.

The opponent's methods are unpredictable. It seems that now he has to take a little risk.

Thinking of this, Lu Qian said to Xiaofeng: "Xiaofeng, go and pack your personal things immediately, and be ready at any time."

Xiaofeng was startled when he heard the words, and said, "Brother Qian, what happened..."

"Don't ask too much."

Lu Qian said, took out a hummingbird, let it fly out, then turned around and went back to the house, and sat down on a chair.

Then, his perspective switched to the hummingbird.

The night in the city was exceptionally quiet.

Occasionally, you can see ghosts in groups of three or four, or alone, wandering aimlessly on the street.

When Lu Qian came to Dinghezhou, the time was not long or short.

Everyone said that Xishen was his neighbor.But to this day, he has never met his close neighbor.

The hummingbird flew quickly, crossed the canal, and went straight to Lin Shangzhen's home.

Since this matter was pre-arranged by Lin Shangzhen, the first place Lu Qian wanted to search was naturally his home.

Lin Shangzhen has been the county magistrate in Dinghezhou for five years, and has already taken over his wife and children.

In addition to the hostess, there are also some servants who serve.

The county magistrate's house is not too small, the whole yard is pitch black, only a few rooms are lit.

After a little hesitation, Lu Qian flew straight to the back house.

Here, there is a big house with lights on.

On the window lattice, there are still two figures printed.

Lu Qian controlled the bird, circled the house, and finally hung upside down under the eaves, looking in through a small, extremely inconspicuous hole in the window paper.

There are two people in the room at the moment.

One of them, wearing a bright red cloak, is extremely eye-catching.

The hood of her cloak had been removed, revealing her gray hair.

It looked like an old woman.

She turned her back to Lu Qian, so that Lu Qian couldn't see her face.

At this moment, she was standing in front of a table, murmuring words, and was fiddling with a small scarecrow on the table.

On the scarecrow's body, there was a yellow paper talisman, like a quilt, covering the scarecrow's entire body.

The yellow paper talisman was stained with blood.

The red-clothed woman made a hand gesture, facing the scarecrow, and was casting a spell.

Beside her, on the other side of the table, stood a young man.

This young man, Lu Qian clearly saw his face.

24. At the age of five, he has a very white face and regular facial features.

It is the patrol envoy of the five counties in the northwest.

Lu Qian is not too unfamiliar with this person.On the first day he came to Dinghezhou, he had seen him with Lin Shangzhen.

It seemed that he had found the true master without any effort.

The people who cast spells to control Ji Siyu's ghost and ask her questions are probably the two people in front of him.

They obviously did not agree with the closing of the case of Fang Qiao Nian and Lin Shangzhen, the county prime minister, and directly pinned the murderer on Ji Siyu.

The woman in red cast a spell on the scarecrow, and it took a long time before she stopped.

Seeing this, the young prince and the patrol envoy frowned and asked, "Is it still not possible?"

The woman in red shook her head, her long gray hair looked a little dry.

The patrol envoy was puzzled and said: "Didn't I find her ghost through her blood just now, why did it suddenly stop?"

The red-clothed woman shook her head again, and said: "She is now a lonely ghost, in an environment where anything can happen at any time, and it is difficult for us to guess what happened to her. "

Lu Qian couldn't help but startled when he heard the clear voice in the hoarse voice.

Looking at her gray hair, I'm afraid she is already 70 or [-] years old.However, listening to her voice, she felt that she was only in her thirties.

After the woman in red finished speaking, she sat down slowly on the chair, then reached into her arms, took out a porcelain bottle, poured out a shiny black pill from the porcelain bottle, and put it in her mouth.

It was only then that Lu Qian noticed that her hands were white and smooth, and they were definitely not the hands of an old woman.

After the woman in red swallowed the pill, she sat on a chair and meditated to rest.

When the patrol envoy saw this, he couldn't disturb him with words, so he had to sit down as well.

He put his right hand on the table, tapped on the table lightly with his fingers, and the expression on his face looked a little anxious.

However, his knuckles clearly landed on the table every time, but he didn't make a sound.

Next, Lu Qian saw a strange scene.

The gray hair of the woman in red turned black at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Although it is still a little dry, but the gray hair is getting less and less.

In a moment, her gray hair turned black again.

Seeing this, the patrol envoy stopped his small movements and asked, "Can you confirm where she is now? Has she returned to Toad Palace Mountain?"

The woman in red shook her head and said, "According to her blood, I can find her ghost. It's not easy. How can I determine her location? After all, this blood is too impure, and it will consume a lot of my blood. The mana, the soul control technique is also greatly reduced."

Hearing this, the patrol envoy gave a wry smile and said, "It is impossible to only obtain her menstrual blood. After all, she is a disciple of Changong Mountain, so we have to be careful when we do things."

The red-clothed woman snorted in displeasure, and said, "It's already my limit to be able to do this."

The patrol envoy said a little irritably: "If her ghost has returned to Toad Palace Mountain, it will be really troublesome. I have to report to Shangfeng as soon as possible..."

The woman in red glanced at him and said, "Although I can't pinpoint her location, I can be sure that Ji Siyu's ghost is definitely not in Toad Palace Mountain at this moment."

"Oh?"

The woman in red said: "My spiritual power level is only level four, and the distance I can extend can only be up to thirty miles away."

When the patrol envoy heard this, his eyes lit up immediately, and he said, "You mean, her ghost must be within thirty miles of us right now?"

The woman in red nodded and said, "But don't be too optimistic. After a person dies, under normal circumstances, the ghost left behind is not conscious. She can answer my question clearly, which shows that she is Its state is quite different from that of ordinary ghosts."

The inspector said thoughtfully: "You mean..."

The woman in red said: "There are only two possibilities. One is that she has mastered the tricks of cultivating ghosts before she was alive, and she can quickly regain consciousness after death..."

The patrol envoy was surprised and said, "Is there such a trick in this world?"

The red-clothed woman said affirmatively: "Of course. According to legend, this kind of trickery was comprehended by some ghosts on their own, and then acquired by humans. Although it is rare, it is not such a great trickery, it just allows living souls to maintain Consciousness, memory preservation. But..."

"But what?"

The woman in red said: "Toad Palace Mountain is a Taoist sect, so it is unlikely to practice tricks."

The patrol envoy nodded, and said: "Taoists have always looked down on even magic tricks, and it is indeed unlikely that they will practice tricks. So, you are inclined to the second result?"

The red-clothed woman nodded and said, "If she didn't practice deceitful techniques and the ghost can retain consciousness after death, then there is only one possibility, that is, someone is helping her."
