The sun was shining outside the window, and the temperature at noon was supposed to be the warmest time of the day, but now Chai Jiangcui felt extremely cold all over his body.
Are all the weird things in this world afraid of the sun?
Moreover, why, as an innate body, did I not notice this little girl at all? When did she get on my back?
Question after question flashed in Chai Jiangcui's mind, but no one could tell her the answer.
Cold sweat flowed down her temples. Chai Jiangcui stared at the teacup with her eyes. The little girl behind her seemed to have noticed her gaze and actually smiled at her strangely.
Not only did that smile not have the innocent and romantic look of an ordinary child, but it actually looked sinister and majestic.
Gudong~
Swallowing silently, Chai Jiangcui forcibly looked away. At the same time, he used the newly recovered spiritual power in his body to examine himself and found that there was nothing abnormal at all.
Calm down, be sure to calm down!
Since something has happened to him so far, it seems that this little girl will not kill him immediately.
So what she has to do now is to think carefully about when she provoked her and how to solve it.
Under the pressure of a huge crisis, Chai Jiangcui's thinking became extremely clear, and she tried hard to recall every detail after she traveled through time.
I'm sure this girl was not there yesterday, otherwise I should have discovered it when I was washing up this morning... By the way, it's the gourd,
This little girl came here with the gourd, and I'm afraid someone didn't give this gourd to me on purpose.
Today, Chai Jiangcui has a very good memory due to her congenital constitution. She can watch what happened this morning over and over again like a movie.
She suddenly noticed that the two strong men did not panic at all when they ran away. Instead, they came straight towards her. They put their knives aside and slapped themselves with their hands. They happened to hold small gourds in their hands.
If Chai Jiangcui had not resisted, she would have been slapped aside, and the gourd would have appeared on her without anyone noticing.
Someone is plotting against me!
In less than a few seconds, Chai Jiangcui figured out the general outline of the matter. Although he still didn't know what the people behind the scenes wanted, he was afraid that he would be in trouble anyway.
Soon, Chai Xingsheng, who was sitting opposite, also noticed something was wrong with Chai Jiangcui's expression, and couldn't help asking with some concern:
"Little sister, what's wrong with you? Is this dish not to your liking? If you don't like it, I'll ask the waiter to change it now."
Looking at the concerned eyes of her third brother, Chai Jiangcui forced out a smile and said lightly:
"No, maybe I'm a little weak after lying down for a long time, and I suddenly felt a little tired just now."
"Okay, let's go back to the house after dinner, and I'll go back to rest."
Are you afraid that you stayed up all night in a brothel last night?
Chai Jiangcui secretly cursed in her heart, but she still nodded slightly and agreed.
The table was full of delicious food, but Chai Jiangcui had no interest in eating anymore.
After finishing their delicious lunch, the five of them returned to the teahouse and returned by carriage.
…
Back at Chai Mansion, Chai Jiangcui excused himself to go back to his boudoir to rest.
After Chai Xingsheng left, Chai Jiangcui didn't dare to delay, so she took Zi Huan and ran towards Chai Jian's study.
Chai Jian's study room contained many strange and strange books. Now, she was eager to find out where the little girl in her body came from.
"Miss, where are we going?"
Zi Huan saw that her young lady did not go back to the boudoir, but walked towards the inner palace, and asked in a low voice with some curiosity.
Chai Jiangcui's steps were a bit hurried and he said without looking back:
"Go to my dad's study to check some things."
"oh."
Hearing this, Zi Huan was a little surprised, but he didn't dare to say anything anymore and just followed Chai Jiangcui silently.
Although no one else is allowed to enter the master's study on weekdays, the young lady is different from several young masters. The master has personally instructed that the young lady can come in and out at will.
Leaving Zi Huan to guard the door, Chai Jiangcui entered the study alone.
As the governor of Yingya County, Chai Jian has as many books as three large bookcases in his study.
Fortunately, Chai Jiangcui had just come in last night. According to her understanding of her father, those books that record supernatural beings and ghosts would most likely be placed together with "Aoki Jue".
After crossing the first two bookshelves, Chai Jiangcui went directly to the inner bookshelf and started rummaging from the top of the bookshelf.
In less than half a stick of incense, Chai Jiangcui found five specious books.
These five books seemed to be old, and the threads on two of them had begun to decay.
After carefully putting down the books in his arms, Chai Jiangcui did not intend to return to the boudoir. He pulled up his father's chair and sat directly on the desk to read carefully.
Fortunately, these five ancient books were not thick. In more than an hour, Chai Jiangcui had already read through them.
Among these five books, "Dayan Scenery" mainly talks about the scenery and geography of various places in Dayan, which is of little use.
"The First Interpretation of the Dayan Immortal Sect" tells the story of several extraordinary forces in the Dayan Kingdom.
The first dynasty, the two sects of Buddhism and Taoism,
Three major aristocratic families, four sword-wielding factions,
Five sects of deceit and six evil spirits
Although it was an eye-opener for her, the rumors about gods and ghosts were not mentioned.
The remaining three books were a bit similar to novels and travel notes. The information in them was a bit ambiguous, but it barely allowed Chai Jiangcui to guess the origin of the little girl behind her.
The little girl behind him may not be a ghost, but a kind of weirdness.
Weirdness is often attached to some objects, a special existence generated by weird energy. Different weirdness has different rules, and the degree of danger is also different.
Not only are they extremely difficult to kill, but even observation requires specific methods to detect them.
Just like the little girl behind her, her existence can only be noticed through the water.
Although the book did not mention any solution to the weirdness, there was one sentence that impressed Chai Jiangcui very deeply:
"The Heart-Refining Sect, one of the six evil demons, seems to have mastered the method of creating low-level weirdness."
"It's the Heart Refining Sect again!"
Seeing this familiar name, Chai Jiangcui bit her teeth lightly, with a little fear and a hint of anger in her eyes.
The gourd that this weird thing is attached to is probably specially sent to her by people from the Lianxin Sect.
I am just a rookie who has just stepped into the path of spiritual practice. Being targeted by such a huge force as the Heart Refining Sect, I am afraid that I will die without knowing how.
"I don't know if the Wu Dewei people can decipher the weirdness in me."
Chai Jiangcui put down the books in his hands anxiously, eager to go to the government office. In the entire Chai Mansion, only the father who worked in the government office knew the whereabouts of Wu Dewei.
But the next second she stood up, a bone-chilling chill hit her forehead. Chai Jiangcui suddenly found that her body couldn't move.
To be precise, her senses were suddenly stripped away and she was unable to control her physical body.
Although she couldn't see it, Chai Jiangcui felt strangely that the weird little girl was putting her little hand on her head, and several transparent silk threads came out and wrapped around her limbs and neck respectively.
The thread pulled, and Chai Jiangcui watched helplessly as he took two wobbly steps, then raised his right hand and gently touched his face.
Marionette!
I have become this weird puppet!
Chai Jiangcui felt boundless fear in her heart. She tried to mobilize the spiritual power in her body in an attempt to break free, but to no avail. She had completely lost the sovereignty of her body.
"It's useless, stop struggling, just be my new doll!"
As if she sensed Chai Jiangcui's resistance, the little girl on her back actually spoke. Her childish voice was like the devilish voice of the Nine Netherworlds, which made Chai Jiangcui's soul feel in a trance, as if she was about to sink.
Chai Jiangcui clung to the last moment of clarity in her mind, despair filling her heart.
"Am I going to die? It's so fast!"
However, just as Chai Jiangcui's thought arose, a burning sensation appeared in his chest, and the coldness on his body disappeared without a trace in an instant as if it had encountered the blazing sun.
In an instant, Chai Jiangcui regained control of her body.
"Ah! What is this? No, don't smoke it!"
A painful scream appeared in her mind, it was the voice of that weird little girl.
It's just that the little girl now has completely lost her arrogance, and her voice is full of fear and helplessness.
Chai Jiangcui was completely confused by this sudden change. She was stunned for several seconds before she fully reacted.
Reaching out to take out the heated object from her arms, Chai Jiangcui was surprised to find that it was the magical card that saved her life.
The card was emitting a faint golden light at the moment, and wisps of black mist were floating out of the gourd, being absorbed by the card.
As the black mist passed by, the color of the gourd's appearance was rapidly fading. Only less than two-thirds of the original gray gourd remained.
Chai Jiangcui had a strong premonition, as if she could order the card to stop absorbing the black mist with just a thought.
But she didn't do that, and continued to listen to the little girl's screams in her mind, her face expressionless.
As the gray color of the fog continued to decrease, the little girl's voice in my mind became weaker and weaker. From being a bit threatening at first, it gradually turned into a plea.
In the end, I couldn't even plead.
After seeing that only the head of the gourd was left with an undetectable gray color, Chai Jiangcui gritted his teeth and ordered the cards to stop absorbing.
She planned to get some information about the Heart Refining Cult from this weird little girl, but in order to prevent her from counterattack, she only left a little gray.
After tapping the gourd which was no longer cold with her knuckles, Chai Jiangcui said in a deep voice:
"Are you dead? If you are not dead, answer my question, otherwise I will absorb the last bit of energy from you and dissipate you completely."
After saying that, Chai Jiangcui raised the card in his hand, looking like he was ready to continue absorbing it.
"No, no, I don't want to disappear. Fairy, if you ask, I will tell you everything."
Facing Chai Jiangcui's threat, the little girl's weak voice reappeared, with a very humble tone.
"Whose hand did you come from, and why did you come to harm me?"
"The little one came from the hands of the god-eye mother-in-law of the Lianxin Sect. Deacon Ying Cheng of the Lianxin Sect asked me to control you. He said that you are one of the people who can still wake up after their souls were sucked by the Mandrill Demon in the East Rock Mountain, so I want to
Let me see what's weird about you."
The weird little girl seemed to be really frightened. She answered Chai Jiangcui's question without any hesitation.
The original owner of the East Stone Mountain Mandrill Demon died in its hands.
After checking the book before, Chai Jiangcui also knew a little bit about the mandrill demon. The mandrill demon was born in the mountains and ridges. It was bred by the evil spirit in the mountains. It is ferocious and cruel and has low wisdom.
First take a small notebook and write it down. If this mandrill demon does not die in the hands of Wu Dewei, you will definitely find an opportunity to take revenge in the future.
Chai Jiangcui thought secretly and continued:
"Where are Granny Shenmu and Deacon Ying Cheng now? What are their strengths?"
"Deacon Ying Cheng is in the middle stage of Qi Qi transformation. He is currently in a remote house in the east of Yingya County. As for Granny Shenmu, I don't know anything about her. She has great magical powers. After I was created,
, and never saw her again.”
This Granny Shenmu should be a high-level member of the Lianxin Sect. If a person like this wanted to plot against him, she would not have to go to such trouble. Thinking about it this way, Granny Shenmu is most likely not in Yingya County.
However, a deacon in the middle stage of energy recovery is not something I can deal with now.
Chai Jiangcui's eyes flashed and he quickly made a judgment in his heart.
"Last question, how does the Lianxin Cult control you?"
"The Refining Heart Cult has placed a restriction on the gourd where I live. It only requires a specific spell to destroy it. However, the restriction has just been destroyed by your magic weapon, Fairy."
After the little girl finished speaking, she was afraid that Chai Jiangcui would question her, so she stirred up the last ray of energy and displayed a strange rune that had been completely destroyed on the gourd.
However, Chai Jiangcui did not look at the rune at this moment. Instead, he raised the card in his hand again and said in a cold tone:
"So that's the case. However, I still don't believe it, so for the sake of safety, please just dissipate obediently."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chai Jiangcui immediately ordered the card to absorb the energy of the gourd again.
"No, you can't do this. Spare me. My ability is to forcibly control the body, which is very useful to you. Spare me..."
But unfortunately, Chai Jiangcui was always indifferent to its begging for mercy.
Chai Jiangcui had no sympathy for this weird thing that almost killed her.
As the gray color of the fog completely faded, the gourd also turned into little bits of dust with a crisp sound.
Gently shaking off the dust in his hand, Chai Jiangcui turned his attention back to the magical card in his hand.
Before practicing last night, Chai Jiangcui also tried to study the cards in his hand, but the cards at that time were dim and dull, and each card was blank.
At that time, she was also thinking about cultivation, so she planned to find opportunities to study it in the future.
But now it seems that the card that traveled with her is a top-notch treasure, and it seems that it only needs to absorb special energy to continue drawing cards again.
After completely absorbing the strange energy in the gourd, the card now exudes a halo that is somewhat different from yesterday. It is no longer the original milky white, but has a light earthy yellow color.
Although he didn't know what the difference was between the two, Chai Jiangcui could clearly feel that the patterns on the back of the cards seemed to be more complicated than yesterday.
"I wonder what good stuff I can get this time."
Although she wanted to take the card back to her boudoir and study it carefully, after seeing the mysterious pattern, Chai Jiangcui was unable to suppress her restless right hand.
Who can refuse an opportunity to draw a card that is just around the corner?
Chai Jiangcui did not choose the top card this time, but randomly selected a card from the middle of the deck.
On the front of the card, there are seven colors of lightning drawn, black, white, red, blue, yellow, green and brown.
"The Heavenly Thunder Spiritual Technique is one of the orthodox Taoist magical powers to transform the outside world. It can bring thunder from the sky to the world, and it can refine the inner spirit to transform it into thunder. It can destroy demons and evil spirits, and it will be detrimental to all!"
The light on the card disappeared, and a crystal clear crystal gem appeared out of thin air.
From the information conveyed in the card, Chai Jiangcui learned that this gem was a magical memory crystal, and the contents could be directly obtained by simply placing it on the forehead.
"I actually picked up a magical power of transformation. I seem to be lucky. I just don't know if I can practice it with my shallow cultivation."
Chai Jiangcui carefully looked at the memory crystal in his hand, with a hint of joy on his face.
Although we still don’t know how powerful this magical power is, the thunder method is mainly for destruction, not to mention the Marrow Cleansing Pill for comparison.
Also from the card, Chai Jiangcui believes that this thunder magic power will never let her down.
Somewhat reluctantly, he put the cards that had returned to darkness close to him. Chai Jiangcui couldn't help but have the absurd idea in his mind, "It would be great if I could be tricked by the Heart Refining Sect again."
But soon, she dispelled her thoughts of seeking death. Not to mention that the Heart Refining Church would not be so stupid. After discovering that the little girl disappeared strangely and inexplicably, she sent another one to continue to explore her.
Even if they really do this, Chai Jiangcui's strange disappearances will definitely attract the attention of the big shots in the Lianxin Sect.
"It's better to be a little more vulgar."
Chai Jiangcui muttered in a low voice, wiped the cold sweat from her temples, put the books on the table back to their original places, turned and left Chai Jian's study.
Because she didn't know how long it would take to read the contents of the memory crystal, to be on the safe side, Chai Jiangcui planned to return to her boudoir before absorbing it.
