Chapter 241: The origin of witchcraft, grass tie doll, Qin Lubai's blood
"You entered the White Tiger Family?!"
At night.
Safe house at the bottom of the well.
Qin Lubai looked at Li Guanqi in front of him and was completely confused, "Why... no, how is it possible? How could the Baihu family accept you?"
You and I obviously came out of a life-and-death battle, and Bai Yang has never been interested in seeing people like us, how could he accept you?!"
"That's not the point."
Li Guanqi leaned against the wall and said helplessly: "The point is, I have indeed entered the White Tiger Family now. What will happen to the Four Elephants Secret Realm then? Do the four major families enter from the same entrance?"
"Same entrance, four branching roads!"
Qin Lubai frowned, "The entrance is the same, but after the four major families lead the team to enter the entrance, they will go their separate ways and walk along four forked roads. Only when they reach outside the designated area will they be allowed to move freely.
In other words, if you follow the White Tiger Family, you will go to another area, which is far away from the location of Suzaku Blessed Land!"
"I can leave a mark on you."
Li Guanqi looked at Qin Lubai and chuckled: "As long as we keep moving towards your direction, we should be able to meet you, right?"
"Can."
Qin Lubai nodded, "The Secret Realm of Four Symbols is a large valley. There are no insurmountable natural dangers or restrictions, but the problem is..."
She looked at Li Guanqi hesitantly, "How are you going to leave a mark? Speaking of which, spells won't work. There must be a magic weapon for detecting spiritual power at the entrance to the secret realm. You have something to shield spiritual power, but I don't have anything on me.
Will you give me another one?"
The principle of marking spells is to leave a spell mark on the target, so that the caster can sense the location of the mark and track it.
In other words, the subject who has been cast a marking spell must have a spiritual aura on his body... and will be detected by the magic weapon.
After all, Qin Lubai is the adopted daughter of the conjurer Chi Gongming, so she still understands the simple principles of these spells.
"No need for spell marks."
Li Guanqi smiled.
In reality, he killed thousands of cursed spirits and obtained many superpowers. At first, he thought they were all useless because 99% of them could be replaced by curses.
But now that I think about it...that's not the case.
Just like now.
He cannot use spells to mark Qin Lubai.
But you can use superpowers.
"You make a wound on your hand."
Li Guanqi forced a drop of blood from his fingertips, held it up with his spiritual power and handed it to Qin Lubai, "Put this drop of my blood into your blood, and I will be able to sense your specific location within thirty days.
"
Power: Blood draw.
This drop of blood was the bait that Li Guanqi placed in Qin Lubai's body.
"Not a spell?"
Qin Lubai looked at him suspiciously, "No spiritual aura?"
"Absolutely not." Li Guanqi smiled.
"no."
Qin Lubai pondered for a moment, then objected: "The risk is too great. What if there is still spiritual power? If it does, I will be blocked from the secret realm. I can't take such a risk."
This woman never believed in Li Guanqi...or rather, she never believed in anyone.
"Let me think about it."
Li Guanqi closed his eyes and felt his body carefully.
He remembered that there were many kinds of marked abilities.
To be honest, the feeling of having thousands of superpowers packed into his body was very, very strange. At first, he gradually increased the number of powers and gradually got used to them, but he was still very uncomfortable at first.
Hmm...how should I put it?
Superpowers are all kinds of weird things, with no principle or logic at all, but the feeling that exists in the human body is like breathing, like an innate "feeling".
But now, he seems to have mastered thousands of breathing methods, and is currently finding one of the thousands of "breathing methods" he wants.
"Um?"
Li Guanqi suddenly raised his eyebrows.
He has twenty-six types of marked abilities.
Among them, twenty-five types have the same "Blood Drawing" power, with minor differences. Seven or eight types inject one's own blood into other people's bodies, five or six types inject hair, two or three types inject saliva...the most outrageous one
, is to inject that.
Although this ability is a bit weird, its effect is extremely exaggerated. Just one shot with her will lock the opponent's position for the rest of your life, which is very cool.
In short, they all require him to do something for others.
With Qin Lubai's cautiousness, he definitely wouldn't want to.
So there is only the last one left.
This ability requires materials, and they are human body materials, similar to those weird witchcraft... In other words, the witchcraft branch of the curse is actually inspired by the abilities of this kind of curse spirit.
This superpower does not require him to put anything in Qin Lubai's body.
Instead, let Qin Lu give it to him for free.
Just take a drop of blood from Qin Lubai and put it into a straw doll, and he can sense the location of the blood owner through the straw doll.
But, they say it is similar to witchcraft.
There are no normal materials required for witchcraft.
The drop of blood he needs is not ordinary blood.
"That, that, uh..."
Li Guanqi looked at Qin Lubai, and for a moment he didn't know where to start. After hesitating for a long time, he turned his eyes to the corner and whispered: "You, do you still have menstrual blood?"
"..."
Qin Lu's white face suddenly turned red.
The cultural customs of the Daluo Dynasty are similar to those of ancient China. Women's ideas in this regard are still quite conservative and difficult to talk about.
"No, do you really want this?"
After a while, Qin Lubai asked calmly.
"Um……"
Li Guanqi lowered his head. He suddenly felt like a pervert.
"have."
Qin Lubai took a deep breath, suppressed his shyness, took out a small glass bottle from the space ring, and placed it on the table. The blood in it was slightly dark red.
"After the alien blood is added to the body, a girl's body undergoes changes. From then on, she will no longer have menstruation, and naturally there will be no menstrual blood...According to tradition, before the alien blood was added to the body, I retained the last menstrual period in my life.
menstrual blood."
"Tradition?"
Li Guanqi was stunned, then turned to look at Qin Lubai, "What kind of tradition is this?"
"How did I know?"
Qin Lubai looked shy, turned his back to Li Guanqi, and said viciously: "Whatever you want to do with my blood, do it quickly! And don't use up this bottle of my blood!"
"oh oh."
Li Guanqi quickly stepped forward and picked up the glass bottle containing blood.
"Right."
At this time, Qin Lubai, who had his back turned to him, said again: "In order to keep the blood from coagulating, I added some medicinal powder. Will it have any effect?"
"I don't know, it shouldn't have any impact, but we have to wait until it's completely done before we can confirm."
Li Guanqi scratched his head, but instead of taking blood directly, he walked to the corner of the secret room.
"Buzz——"
Green light emitted from his right hand, and he performed a low-level "vegetation growth" technique, causing a patch of weeds to grow in the corner of the wall.
Then he pulled up weeds and quickly weaved a straw doll, and specially made two "little braids" to show the female identity of the owner of the doll.
After making such a straw doll, Li Guanqi walked to the wooden table, released his spiritual power, and slowly took out a drop of dark red blood from Qin Lubai, a glass bottle containing menstrual blood.
"Hello!"
Qin Lubai who was standing next to him was shocked when he saw this, and said with horror: "Grass doll? Menstrual blood? You are not trying to use my menstrual blood to poison you, are you?!"
"..."
Li Guanqi was silent for a moment.
He was thinking about how to explain.
But there seems to be no explanation at all.
Because the inspiration for witchcraft comes from this kind of superpower.
In other words, this kind of superpower that requires special human body materials is actually witchcraft.
He is indeed using Qin Lubai's menstrual blood to perform witchcraft, but he is just using his mental power...
"I don't know how to explain it."
Li Guanqi held the straw doll with his left hand, and used his spiritual power with his right hand to control the drop of menstrual blood to float in the air. He turned to look at Qin Lubai and said helplessly: "If you don't trust me to put the blood in your body, then I can only use
Your blood is used for the ritual."
"you!"
Qin Lubai looked ugly.
"I have no reason to harm you." Li Guanqi said seriously, "We are a community of interests, aren't we? I still want something from you. I still need you to take me to the Suzaku Paradise."
"..."
Qin Lubai frowned and was silent for a long time.
"Don't move yet, wait for me."
Qin Lubai grabbed the drop of menstrual blood in Li Guanqi's hand, and also took away his own menstrual blood bottle. He went to a bookshelf in the secret room, took out a thick book, and began to read carefully.
Half a moment.
The woman in green clothes closed the book.
"Okay."
Qin Lubai handed the menstrual blood bottle to Li Guanqi again, "You can cast the spell."
"Um?"
Li Guanqi was a little curious, "Have you found a way to prevent me from doing anything else?"
"Are you really going to do anything?!" Qin Lubai's eyes widened.
"Of course not." Li Guanqi explained quickly.
"Okay, hurry up and do your thing."
Qin Lubai didn't say anything else.
But it was obvious that this woman in Tsing Yi was indeed knowledgeable and must have found a way to take precautions, otherwise she would not be able to trust Li Guanqi to use her menstrual blood to cast spells.
"OK."
Li Guanqi took out another drop of dark red menstrual blood from the blood bottle and carefully put it towards the Cao Zha doll.
So damn...
He suddenly remembered that he had seen similar spells in Zhuang Yuan's library.
Menstrual blood is also used.
This type of spell is very special and requires the use of special human body materials, so it has been given an additional name - witchcraft.
At first, Li Guanqi took one look and ignored it. After all, who the hell would learn such a perverted and weird spell?!
But things are unpredictable.
He didn't learn this spell at first, but today he used similar powers to do the same thing.
Li Guanqi used his spiritual power to control the drop of menstrual blood and put it into Caozha Doll's body.
Soon, blood seeped into it.
At the same time, Li Guanqi also used his spiritual power to perform supernatural powers, infusing this straw doll with menstrual blood with the imprint of spiritual powers.
At the same time, I secretly cursed in my heart.
Forget about special powers, they are born with curse spirits, but what about human spellcasters?
How perverted was the magician who was the first to observe this kind of power, study it, copy it, and turn it into a spell... Or is this called academic spirit?
This question is strange.
Just like the first human being who discovered that milk is drinkable, what did he do to the cow?
"alright."
Li Guanqi withdrew his mental power, and then took the straw doll that had completed the supernatural transformation in his hand.
"alright?"
Qin Lubai turned around, glanced at the bottle of menstrual blood on the table, and then put it away with an unnatural expression.
From the point of view of Daluo women, showing such things to men is a very shameless thing - even if they are informal, they are still embarrassed.
"cough."
Li Guanqi held the straw doll mixed with menstrual blood in his hand and coughed, "Well, you go out and walk around. I'll see if this thing is effective."
"Um."
Qin Lubai then left.
About two or three minutes later, she returned to the safe house at the bottom of the well.
"Is it okay?"
Qin Lubai looked at Li Guanqi curiously.
"Absolutely."
Li Guanqi nodded and put the straw doll into the space ring.
Then.
He and Qin Lubai looked at each other, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment.
"...Then, you will stay in the White Tiger Family for the next few days?"
Qin Lubai's eyes dodge and he asked as if he had nothing to say.
"yes."
Li Guanqi nodded and chuckled: "However, I have to go to Jiufeng Ganlu Tower tonight."
…
…
Jiufeng Ganlu Tower.
Located in the inner city, it is the largest restaurant in Leicheng.
After Bai Yang killed the head of the Qinglong family, he brought the Baihu family to this restaurant to "celebrate".
The moon and stars are sparse.
Although there are no night entertainment activities in Leicheng, it is a different matter for the rich master. At this time, the street where Jiufeng Manlu Tower is located is brightly lit, and the street is full of wealthy people, making it very lively.
Opposite Jiufengganlu Building is a brothel - Hongxiuxiang, the largest brothel in Leicheng.
The two are well balanced.
The restaurant only serves food and drinks, and the girls who order can only touch and play with them.
Once you've eaten and drank enough, you'll be warm and full, and then you can go to the other side to play with meat and vegetables.
at this time.
In the night.
In an alley next to Hong Xiuxiang, a short figure slowly walked out of the darkness. He was wearing black clothes, but his face was not covered, revealing an ordinary and unfamiliar face.
Li Guanqi.
In other words, Li Guanqi used the "transformation" technique.
In the simulated copy of [Frontier Battlefield], he killed the army spy, Chi Yuanning, the bastard brother of "General Poetry and Painting" Chi Yuanan, and plundered this technique from that bastard.
Deformation.
Can change appearance, height, voice, and even breath!
Li Guanqi didn't believe that this technique had no limits, and he didn't even believe that this technique wouldn't be discovered... But, tonight, it shouldn't be discovered.
Because the target he attacked was only a one-level martial artist, and even the martial artist next to him for personal protection was only a three-level warrior.
Yes.
Xuanhao!
Li Guanqi, a scumbag of the Xuanwu family, wanted to plunder the "water realm" ability of a Xuanwu family, so he naturally set his sights on him.
Xuan Hao will enter the Secret Realm of Four Symbols, and he will take action in the Secret Realm of Four Symbols to kill this scumbag. This will not only satisfy his own interests, but also eliminate harm for the people, killing two birds with one stone.
It will be much easier to follow Xuanhao.
Qin Lubai didn't want him to put anything in his body, so he could only use that troublesome and "what" special power.
But for Xuan Hao, there is no need to be so troublesome.
Just make a wound on the person's body, and then put a "blood lead" into the person's blood.
"Young Master Hao, when you become the Liangyi level, you will have to lead us brothers to show your authority!"
"Hahahaha! Easy to say, easy to say!"
at this time.
At the gate of Jiufeng Ganlu Building, a group of drunk young men in fine clothes came out together, all of them flattering the young man in the middle who was hugging two beauties on his left and right, laughing endlessly.
Xuanwu family, Xuanhao.
As for the few next to them, they are either the sons of wealthy businessmen in Leicheng, or the prodigal sons of the other three major families.
However, among these people, Xuanhao has the highest status.
Because he is the biological grandson of the head of the Xuanwu family, the direct grandson... To be honest, apart from him, there is no such useless direct bloodline among the other three major families.
"Huh, who am I? The head of the Xuanwu family is my grandfather! Those fools have to fight to the death in the ring to get a spot. I can get a spot without even going there!"
"That's right!"
"How can those people compare with Master Hao?"
"Young Master Hao is much better than them!"
At the entrance of Jiufeng Ganlu Building, if Xuan Hao said something, the few losers next to him would be able to flatter him a lot.
...silly cup.
In the alley opposite, the transformed Li Guanqi looked expressionless.
He obviously has such a family background, and he obviously has talents as good as the direct bloodlines of the other three major families. Instead of practicing, he wastes his time on eating, drinking and having fun.
The higher your cultivation level, the longer you can live and enjoy more and more extreme happiness.
If you don’t understand this truth, what is Xuanhao if he’s not a fool?
"Young Master Hao, let's go to the opposite side and play?"
At this time, the bastard next to Xuan Hao smiled and pointed at Hong Xiuxiang opposite.
"Hey, that's boring."
Unexpectedly, Xuan Hao waved his hands without interest, and pushed away the two beauties who were clinging to him, "These women who are selling are not interesting, they are too deliberate and not fun enough. I just like to go to the streets."
Look for those who have husbands, and those who resist are called..."
"Hey hey hey."
A disgusting smile appeared on Xuanhao's face.
"But, forget it."
Xuan Hao shook his head, "Grandpa just warned me last year, so I'd better restrain myself."
"..."
The speaker has no intention, the listener has intention.
The few losers around Xuan Hao looked at each other, with a flash of brilliance in their eyes.
Sometimes, when a person's status is high, he can't speak nonsense.
You casually said that the threshold is a bit high. You didn't really care about it at first, but the people around you who want to curry favor with you will lower the threshold that night.
For example, now.
Xuan Hao said something casually.
Tonight, I don't know which woman from a good family will suffer... There are some things that he can't do, and someone will naturally do it for him.
"It's fucking disgusting."
In the alley, Li Guanqi walked out of the darkness with an expressionless face, walked through the crowded night market, and walked towards Xuan Hao's group.
soon.
He passed by Xuan Hao.
"Pfft!"
Blood spurts!
Li Guanqi's five fingers were like hooks, and while he cut Xuan Hao's arm, he also put the drop of "blood lead" he had hidden under his fingernails into Xuan Hao's blood - the plan was completed.
but!
At the same time, the guard behind Xuan Hao arrived in an instant. The moment Li Guanqi took action, the fist of this third-level martial artist also hit him hard in the abdomen.
"boom!"
Li Guanqi took advantage of the situation and flew backwards, smashing into a series of shops along the street. Wooden boards flew into the air and smoke filled the sky.
But soon he burst out of the smoke and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.
"ah!"
At this time, Xuan Hao was holding his bleeding right arm. Although the wound was healing rapidly, Young Master Hao, who had been pampered since childhood and had never experienced pain, still couldn't help but wailed.
"Kill him! Quick! Kill him quickly!!!"
"...No, Master."
The big man next to Xuan Hao, the three-talented guard, is not a member of the Xuanwu family, but a martial artist who joined the Xuanwu family in order to seek higher martial arts.
At this time, he looked at Li Guanqi's leaving figure in the distance and frowned, "I'm worried that this is a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain, so it's better to stay by your side."
…
…
"It's done."
Leicheng, inner city, near the residence of the White Tiger family.
In the darkness, a figure approached from far away.
Li Guanqi, who removed the "transformation" spell and returned to his original appearance, slowly walked out of the night and headed towards the White Tiger family's house.
The blood that has been blessed with the "blood draw" power has now entered Xuan Hao's body. When he enters the Secret Realm of Four Symbols, he can follow the blood draw's induction, find Xuan Hao, and kill him. After all, the family elder is
I won't follow you into the secret realm.
This method is a supernatural power. Using mental power will not cause fluctuations in spiritual power at all.
But Qin Lubai just didn't believe it.
Otherwise, there is no need to resort to such "that" methods.
"Mr. Qi?"
Li Guanqi walked to the gate of the Baihu family's residence, but was stopped by the housekeeper.
"Ruibo, what's wrong?"
Li Guanqi looked at the old man in front of him curiously.
"The master of the house gave orders."
The old man who had stayed in the Bai family for most of his life smiled kindly and kindly: "He said that when you come back in the evening, you should first go to the maple forest outside the city. There is only one maple forest outside the city, and the maple leaves are red now.
Yes, Mr. Qi, you can see it when you leave the city."
Li Guanqi was stunned.
Maple forest outside the city?
…
…
At night.
In late autumn, the weather is getting cooler and the leaves of the maple trees are gradually turning red.
The maple leaves are flying all over the sky, and when they are swept by the evening wind, there is a continuous rustling sound.
Late night, bright moon, maple leaves.
I really responded to the saying "Autumn wind sweeps the fallen leaves".
Li Guanqi walked slowly towards this place in the night. Looking at this scene, the feeling of loneliness in late autumn suddenly came to him.
Deep in the maple forest.
A tall, white-haired old man sat cross-legged on the ground, holding a pot of sweet-scented osmanthus wine in his hand, with a lonely figure behind him.
His back was to Li Guanqi, but he was facing a tombstone.
"The Tomb of My Beloved Wife Liu Yuhua"
That is the grave of Bai Yang's wife.
Forty years ago, Bai Yang mistakenly killed the head of the Qinglong family, causing the adopted son of the Qinglong family to kill five members of his family in revenge... Since then, Bai Yang has lost all his family members.
The White Tiger family is very big and there are many people.
But those are all clansmen.
Wife, children, parents.
For Bai Yang, these five people are his real family.
"Senior Bai."
Li Guanqi walked behind Bai Yang, first bent down to salute the tombstone, and then saluted Bai Yang with clasped fists.
"She loves maple leaves."
Bai Yang put down the wine bottle and raised his hand to touch his wife's tombstone in front of him. He lowered his head and said in a hoarse voice, "So I buried her here. Every late autumn, she can see a lot of red maple leaves. She
She should like it, and I don’t know if I can make her calm down by doing this..."
"Do you hate him?"
Li Guanqi looked at Bai Yang and asked softly: "That righteous son of the Qinglong family who brought harm to your family?"
Li Guanqi wants to know the answer to this question.
Because the five words "Practice martial arts without killing" seem to be particularly...clear in Bai Yang's body.
