life and death deed

Chapter 359 Shikigami
because……

You are old!

This short sentence kept echoing in my ears. My pupils shrank and I looked at Xuetang Yan closely.

He knew I was old!
He knows my true identity is Chen Nian!

He saw through the disguise technique of the white-faced golden-haired nine-tailed fox!

But at this moment, I did not activate the Immortal Sword, nor did I attack Xuetang Yan.

Although he is one of the six forces chasing me, the head of the Xue family.

But some of the things he did today really left me scratching my head, and I couldn't tell whether he was an enemy or a friend.

I said calmly: "Master Xue, why can't I understand what you said? I am Chen Nian? Who is Chen Nian? My name is Chen Jiling."

At this moment, I was still afraid that Xuetang Yan would try to defraud my identity. My expression quickly became confused, and I stared at Xuetang Yan in confusion.

Xuetang Yan chuckled softly and said, "You don't have to pretend. Although I don't know why you look like this, the taste of Baocui is unmistakable. Don't say you just changed your face. Even if you become an insect or a leaf, I can easily find you."

Hearing his affirmative tone, I stopped pretending to be dumbfounded. Instead, I shrugged and said, "Now that the Xue Family Master has recognized me, is he going to take action against me?"

Unexpectedly, Xuetang Yan smiled and said: "We are all the same kind of people, how could I do anything to you?"

"What do you mean?" I asked, frowning.

Are they all the same kind of people?

Could it be that the kind of people he was talking about meant that he and I both obtained treasures from the treasure vein?

Otherwise, I can't figure out how he and I are the same kind of people.

"You don't need to know this yet, you just need to understand now that I am on your side." Xuetang Yan said.

"Then why did you join the tantric cicada hunting plan?" I asked, staring at the Xuetang Banquet.

He smiled slightly and said: "Because we are the same kind of people, I naturally want to help you. Only by participating in the cicada hunting plan and acting as an undercover agent can I help you better."

I really never expected that when Jiang Ling asked me to pay close attention to Jingxue’s house, the ultimate beneficiary of the Dao Guiyin murder case, Xuetang Yan, was actually from my side!He turned out to be my undercover!
But I still said: "How can I believe what you said."

"I didn't take action against you, and I even helped you today. This is enough to prove what I said."

Xuetang Yan explained to me calmly.

In my heart at this moment, I actually believed Xue Tangyan's words. Just because he knew my identity as Chen Nian, but did not attack me, it completely showed that he was not my enemy.

After all, the main members of the Xue family should have come to Japan. If these people attack together, they have a great chance of capturing me alive.

Even if Xuetangyan is more sinister, he can wait until Abe and Tai finish attacking me today, and then reap the benefits. This is an excellent opportunity.

But he did neither.

"In that case, what is the purpose of the Xue family's visit to Japan this time?" My voice became polite and I asked curiously.

I don’t think that Xuetangyan led a large number of people from the Xue family to Japan just to tell me that he is my friend and that he is one of the undercover cicada-hunting forces in six directions.

Xuetang Yan paused, and then he continued: "This time, three of the six forces are searching for you in the hot summer, and the other three forces are far away from overseas, heading to various regions, and the force that originally came to Japan was the Yue Family of the Miao Territory. .”

"The Yue family's Gu magic is extremely terrifying. After integrating the Jin family's forces, they have reached the level of half-stepping the country. If they come to Japan, you will most likely be found. I have already known that you are in Japan. , so we exchanged the destinations with the Yue family in advance, they went to Tianzhu, and our Xue family came to Japan!"

"In addition, in order to prevent the other five cicada-catching forces from suspecting our Xue family, I only brought almost [-]% of the people with me this time."

Hearing this, I was a little surprised.

However, listening to Xuetang Yan's sincere words, I almost completely believed that Xuetang Yan was my friend, not my enemy.

"Thank you very much, Master Xue. If I am lucky enough to survive this time, I will definitely thank you, Master Xue!"

I spoke seriously.

Xuetang Yan snorted coldly and said in the tone of an elder lecturing a younger one: "The forces that want to hunt you down in Yanxia will not come to Japan in the short term. You should deal with the matter in front of you first. I can't figure out how you became Tsuchimikado. Is this my son-in-law?"

I don't know how to answer.When Xuetang Yan saw that I didn't speak, he continued: "Abe Hetai's strength is not weak. You have basically no chance of winning in his hands. And if you use the Absolute Immortal Sword then, there is no guarantee that you will be defeated by Abe. Recognition, if they recognize you as Chen Nian, they’ll be in big trouble.”

"So, I still say the same thing, you must not participate in tomorrow's fight!"

I smiled bitterly and replied: "Master Xue, things are a bit complicated. I have to participate in tomorrow's battle."

Seeing my firm attitude, Xuetang Yan asked in a deep voice: "Do I have to participate?"

"Yes." I said firmly.

No matter what, I must get the Immortal Trap Sword, so I must participate in this fight, no matter how dangerous it is, I must at least complete the cooperation with the fox demon.

"Forget it, I can only remind you to this point. If you insist on participating, I can't stop you." Xuetang Yan sighed, and then said: "Do you know the rules of the fight?"

"I don't know." I shook my head and showed an expression of willingness to hear more details.

Xuetang Yan pondered for a moment and said: "The Tsuchimikado family's martial arts fight is not conducted one-on-one, but puts everyone into the shikigami secluded forest of the Tsuchimikado family. Who is in the shikigami secluded forest?" The longer you stay in the forest, the higher your ranking will be."

"During the fighting, it is allowed to attack members of other branches, but generally speaking, the six branches of the Tsuchimikado family will not kill each other, so the main danger encountered in the Shikigami Forest is the Japanese Shiki god!"

Hearing this, I was a little surprised that the fighting was actually carried out in this way.

Yukido Yan glanced at me for a few times and continued: "However, today you offended the eldest son of the Tsuchimikado family, Abe and Tai. He will most likely attack you directly in tomorrow's fight. Shikigami Yurin, no matter life or death." , even if he kills him, it doesn’t matter."

Seeing that Xuetangyan wanted to persuade me not to participate in the fight, I changed the topic and said, "Master Xue, I know very little about this Japanese shikigami. Can you tell me a little bit about it?"

Xuetang Yan nodded and said: "The shikigami of Japan are actually spirits and monsters, not much different from our hot summer spirits and monsters, but our hot summer spirits and monsters cannot sign a contract with us humans and form a master-servant relationship. "

"But those from Japan can. As long as they are spirits and monsters native to Japan, they can form a contract with the Onmyoji under special methods and become the most loyal slaves of the Onmyoji."

"Of course, if you want to obtain a shikigami, you not only need a special method of enslavement, but also need to be at the second-level lower stage. The special method of enslavement is currently only mastered by the Tsuchimikado family and the Misaki family, and the Japanese second-level lower level The realm of level is equivalent to the realm of transformation in our Yanxia."

"Therefore, there are very few people in Japan who can enslave shikigami. You can even count them with two slaps!"

I'm a little surprised, no wonder only Japan has the so-called shikigami.

But soon, I couldn't help but think that if only the Onmyoji of Japan could enslave shikigami, wouldn't it mean that the masters of Japan would naturally have one more method than the masters of Yanxia metaphysics?
Xuetang Yan seemed to see what I was thinking at the moment, and he continued: "Maybe it's because of the blood, but the Onmyoji of Japan has never had anyone similar to my Yanxia's innate magical power, my Yanxia's transformation state, because of the Dharma The existence is not weaker than the Onmyoji who possesses shikigami. In addition, the number of magic weapons in Japan is also pitiful. The Japanese Onmyoji world does not have a single innate spiritual treasure, so overall, they are still much weaker than us. "

It turns out that Japan has no supernatural powers and no Dharma!
At this time, an idea suddenly popped up in my mind and I asked: "Master Xue, if I, a master of the phase transformation realm in Yanxia, ​​learn the method of enslaving a shikigami, can I capture a shikigami in Japan?"

Xuetang Yan was stunned for a moment, and he looked at me in surprise.

For a moment, he said strangely:
"So far, there has never been an example of a Yanxia master enslaving a Japanese shikigami. However, my Japanese shikigami source veins are essentially the same as my Yanxia's Qi veins. They both rely on understanding the Qi of all things to open up a meridian in the body. I think , if you really have the ability to get a way to enslave shikigami from the Tsuchimikado family and the four Misaki families, I, the Yanxia metaphysician, can also enslave shikigami."

I couldn't help but think that the fox demon Jade-faced Slave is also a shikigami, so doesn't it mean that this white-faced golden-haired nine-tailed fox can also be adopted as a shikigami?
So if I get this so-called method of slavery, can I subdue this vixen?
Although the fox demon is not particularly powerful in combat, her tail is abnormal. If it can be used by me, it will definitely improve me!

Of course, I was just imagining it in my mind. After all, the method of enslaving a shikigami is not easy, and it also requires a more important condition, which is the strength of the transformation state!
Right now, I am still a thousand miles away from reaching the lower realm of Qi Meridian and the realm of separation.

"Master Xue, I'll take my leave now."

After talking about this, time is almost up.

Xuetang Yan nodded, and after telling me a few words to be careful tomorrow, I left the wooden house where the Xue family lived.

I returned to the dilapidated house in the back hill.

But just when I was about to go back to rest, I suddenly saw two figures getting into the back mountain not far away.

From the back, there was a woman among them who looked like a fox demon and a jade-faced slave.

The other one was a man with an extremely generous figure, who was obviously not Sukeyama Abe.

I was puzzled, why was this fox demon going to the back mountain with a man?
Wouldn't she be taking the man to the back mountain to absorb Yuanyang's energy?
I shook my head and wasn't going to worry about this naughty fox anymore. It was none of my business who she wanted to seduce. After all, anyone who wanted to be beaten was willing to suffer.

But at this moment, my body suddenly stiffened again!

A terrifying thought came to my mind...

Could it be...the fox demon jade-faced slave...

She is already someone else’s shikigami!
