272: As long as he has work to do
Ye Siheng used Qing Kung Fu to reach her side and pulled the collar of her cloak to prevent her from being contaminated by the night frost and getting cold.
"Seeing as his Taoist skills are not better than yours, why can't your talisman stop him?"
Nan Li told the truth: "His teleportation talisman has a protective mechanism, which is quite unique. If he drew it, his strength should not be underestimated."
Her eyes were appreciative.
Ye Siheng rarely saw her like this, so he said, "It's a pity that she is also a person with evil intentions." Nan Li nodded slightly, smoothed her hair, and tied it up with a wooden hairpin.
There was movement in the magic circle, and she slowly woke up from her sleep.
But she didn't understand how Ye Siheng knew about it in advance and rushed over.
She asked this question, and Yesi Heng replied: "This moat not only surrounds the palace, but also runs across the east, west, north, and south, and is connected to some canals, so this female water ghost can move around. I guessed that when the moat was first built,
, then
He is already planning to cause water ghosts to harm people and seduce people. So if you set up a magic circle to catch the ghosts, there is a high probability that someone will come to destroy it." Nan Li was a little surprised, "I see. Then this person is very capable. He can actually control everything.
Planning and construction of moats.”
Ye Siheng's expression became darker. He nodded and said, "Yes, and it has been more than ten or twenty years. Even if we investigate, we may not be able to find anything."
Although it is already summer, there is still a cool breeze at night.
Not to mention there is a water ghost tied behind them.
Nan Li turned around and stared directly at the female water ghost.
The female water ghost immediately felt a sense of oppression. She swallowed her saliva and said hesitantly: "You... what do you want to do?"
"Relax, I just want to ask you a few questions." Nan Li said.
The female water ghost trembled: "You can ask, but don't look at me like that." If Nan Li hadn't saved her, she would have been reduced to ashes, so she would naturally know the rules.
"What is the name and identity of the man just now? What is your relationship with him?" "His name is Chongjiu, and I don't know his origin. I was originally a water ghost in a lake on the outskirts of Beijing. A few years ago, he
Catch me here and let me seduce my soul, absorb my essence and gather it in one place." The female water ghost didn't dare to hide anything, "Besides me, there are other water ghosts working for him."
Seeing that this little girl is able to create such a powerful magic circle despite her young age, she will naturally not offend anyone without her eyesight.
Nan Li narrowed her eyes slightly.
If you seize the soul and absorb the essence in the water, even if you rescue the person, you will only think that the person was drowned in the water, which is a good way to cover up.
If her second brother hadn't fallen into the water and had a protective body, she probably wouldn't have noticed it.
The question is, what does Chongjiu want to do by causing the water ghosts to seduce their souls and suck their essence? He looks young. When the moat was built more than ten years ago, he was the size of a baby, right? Ye Siheng simply asked: "That
Where is the place?”
The female water ghost shrank back.
Somehow, this man gave her a deeper intimidation. If she hadn't been trapped in the talisman formation, she would have been far away from him by now.
She said in a trembling voice: "Underground, there is an underground river leading there. But the underground river is very narrow, so you can't go down."
Nan Li glanced at the bright moon in the sky and raised her eyebrows: "It's okay, just lead me the way. When you get to the place, just stay there."
She pulled out a tracking charm from the bag, which could also be used on ghosts.
It seems like I won't be able to sleep tonight.
The female water ghost suddenly thought, even if there was a tracking talisman, once she got out of the talisman formation, she could ask Chongjiu Gang to break it herself.
But Nan Li immediately saw through the female water ghost's thoughts and added another talisman.
The female water ghost felt something strange about her ghost body. She was a little frightened and her face became even paler, "What kind of talisman is this?!"
"This is also a ghost-killing talisman, but it's timed." Nan Li said, "If you don't do this before dawn, the ghost-killing flame will devour you completely."
If the female water ghost was still alive, she would definitely be pissed to death.
This ghost-killing talisman was very different, it was tightly penetrated into her ghost body.
She was sure that Chongjiu couldn't solve it either.
She was almost desperate and compromised: "Are you sure you can unlock this ghost-killing talisman?"
"Why can't I untie the talisman seal I drew myself?" Nan Li raised her hand and removed the talisman array.
The female water ghost was freed and fell back into the water.
She did have the idea of rebellion for a moment, but quickly gave it up.
She swam to another canal, but decided to lead the way for Nan Li.
Qing Feng and others also came ashore, but they were all wet.
Nan Li gave them cleansing charms, and they were soon clean and refreshed.
It was estimated that time was almost up, so Nan Li used the paper crane to lead the way.
The paper crane circled around and stopped at one place.
There are many shops on the street.
When Nan Li looked at the sky and surroundings, his expression suddenly became serious.
"What's wrong?" Ye Siheng also noticed that there was something strange about this place.
"This place gathers the spiritual energy from yin to yang. It's a bit lacking for business, but it's excellent for setting up formations and refining talismans." Nan Li frowned.
If it is underground, where water flows together and is not exposed to the sun, it will be twice the result with half the effort.
Yesi Heng said, "Have you confirmed the location?" Nan Li glanced at the paper crane and said, "It's under these shops."
Immediately, Ye Siheng asked Qingfeng to take action directly.
If an innocent shop is involved, he will pay compensation when the time comes.
The black-armored guards were well-trained and searched the shops, and soon found the entrance to the secret passage in a cloth shop.
The secret passage opened, and a cool breeze blew out, hitting the person's face, making him feel uncomfortable for a while.
Nan Li frowned, raised his hand and held out a fire talisman, first for lighting, and second for dispelling the cold atmosphere, so as not to hurt himself.
"Ali, I'll go first." Naturally, Ye Siheng would not let her take risks by walking ahead.
When Qingfeng heard this, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, my subordinates will go and clear the way first!"
This is what a guard should do.
He had already lost face in the moat. If he could no longer play any role, he might have to sweep the floor.
Nan Li shook his head: "That Chongjiu's ability is not low, and I don't know what's going on down there. You should wait above and don't follow us down." Qing Feng suddenly received a severe blow, "Princess, subordinates..."
"Stay guard up there, in case that Chongjiu secretly kills you again," Ye Siheng said.
"Yes!" Qingfeng immediately accepted the order.
As long as he has work to do!
The two of them didn't waste any time and immediately went down the stone stairs.
The fire talisman illuminates and clears the way. Occasionally, one or two wisps of dark breath come down, and they will be dispersed by the fire talisman.
The stone staircase twists and turns, and the lower you go, the colder it gets.
After walking for about half a cup of tea, I heard the sound of running water.
In front is an arch as tall as a person.
Yesi Heng still wanted to leave first, but Nan Li pulled him: "I go first."
