"It's indeed a heart poison." Shangguan Jin narrowed his eyes slightly.
At this moment, in her field of vision, the aura flowing on the body of businessman Yang Changfu has turned into hundreds of data.
Subsequently, these data turned into countless lines and trajectories, and finally outlined an invisible Gu insect hidden deep in his soul.
She paused for a moment, then continued: "I didn't expect that in such a small courtyard, there is such a mystery hidden."
"Fellow Taoist Shangguan "I'm new to the capital, so I'm not familiar with everything here," Gu Xu said, "Do you think there is anyone in Luojing City who might have such a weird method? What's his motivation? Choose to attack Yang Changfu in this way?"
"As far as I know, the Daqi royal family, aristocratic families and many officials and dignitaries will hire some monks who are good at Feng Shui to help them create a good practice. "Illusion," Shangguan Jin thought for a while and replied, "As for the art of witchcraft... Usually, Daqi monks look down on it, thinking that it is a crooked way and cannot be refined.
"Even if someone wants to use it, they will only use it secretly and secretly. Therefore, I really don’t know anyone in the capital who is good at such a spell.
"If you want to ask, who is most likely to have the motive for committing the crime...then it is undoubtedly Yang Changfu's enemy or business competitor."
Shangguan Jin said this Before Gu Xu could respond, he turned to look at Yang Changfu who was dazed at the side: "Mr. Yang, have you ever made enemies with anyone before? Or did you have any business disputes with others?"
< p>Yang Changfu was stunned for two seconds and finally came to his senses: "Ah, no! How could a person with an easy-going, generous and righteous personality like me easily become enemies with others? They were all scrambling to make friends with me. "Yeah!"Shangguan Jin shook his head slightly, knowing that he couldn't get any useful information out of this guy.
"Fellow Shangguan, I think we should first solve the feng shui problem in this courtyard and the witchcraft on Yang Changfu!" At this time, Gu Xu said, "The rest We will report the situation to the Yamen truthfully and ask the Yamen to send special personnel to investigate."
Because the Luojing City Exorcism Division headquarters has a large number of people, its internal division of labor is very different from that in Yishui County.
The number of monks in Yishui County is rare, and most of the monks are not high-level. As a result, many officials have multiple responsibilities.
Like Gu Xu at the beginning, he had to solve crimes, kill ghosts, and draw talismans. Sometimes he had to help people improve their houses, help others organize documents, or lead new people to do tasks... Even the county government next door would ask him for help if they wanted to catch a robber.
But within Luojing City, the division of labor among the monks is very detailed - the ghost killers only need to be responsible for killing ghosts, and the accountants only need to be responsible for managing the accounts... In addition, there are also specialized Library administrator, newbie training guidedivision, intelligence analyst, etc.
Each person is like a tiny part in the machine, each performing its own duties and driving the complex machinery of the Exorcist Department to run at high speed according to a specific rhythm.
As the sixth-level head of the Exorcism Department, Gu Xu’s main responsibility is to deal with ghosts.
Conflicts between people - whether it is interest disputes between businessmen, grudges among civilians, or finding other behind-the-scenes masterminds... they do not fall under his jurisdiction. He doesn't like to get involved in these things either.
So, for the case he encountered today, he only needed to solve the part related to extraordinary power.
The rest can naturally be left to people who are better at it.
Shangguan Jin nodded and approved Gu Xu’s idea.
She tapped the jade pendant around her waist three times.
The jade pendant glowed with light and began to record the video of today’s case.
Gu Xu then ordered: "Xiaohan, please go over there and clear away the vines on the walls and trees."
"Okay!" Shi Xiaohan happily said He agreed and at the same time stretched out his hand towards Gu Xu.
Gu Xu took out the "Kunwu Sword" from "Xianyunju" and handed it to her hand.
Shi Xiaohan held the big knife in his arms, and then jumped towards the wall.
She had been standing next to Gu Xu in a daze just now - she couldn't understand what Gu Xu and Shangguan Jin said, such as Feng Shui, the Avenue of Cause and Effect, the art of witchcraft, etc.
These profound and remote knowledge fell into her ears, like a lullaby, making her head dizzy and she couldn't help but yawn several times.
Until now, she finally has a use.
Of course, Gu Xu also found something to do for her when he saw that she was idle and bored.
Perhaps in order to vent his restless mood, Shi Xiaohan directly used the "Taotie Seal", and a clear Taotie shadow appeared behind him, and then used the fierce and violent "Overlord Sword Technique" to wield Using the "Kunwu Sword", he slashed hard at the vines on the wall and on the trees.
It seems that in her eyes, these vines are monsters with ferocious faces and claws.
Even while wielding the knife, she shouted words such as "Watch the move", "Eat me with a knife", "Where are the evil spirits running", "Too weak", etc. from time to time.
Soon, she chopped down all the vines in the courtyard.
While Xiao Han was chopping the vines with great interest, Gu Xu was also using his powerful spiritual power to observe the flow of breath in the courtyard and the state of the soul of businessman Yang Changfu.
At this moment, Gu Xu clearly saw a black vine spiraling up from under Yang Changfu's feet, wrapping around his body and extending to his neck.
He knew clearly that this black vine was not an entity, but a killing pattern composed of Feng Shui techniques, a concrete projection of the evil spirit. Only those who have studied Feng Shui and have great spiritual power willOnly powerful monks can see it.
Yang Changfu’s bad luck in recent times comes from this.
Under the influence of a certain spell, the effect of these evil spirits was greatly enhanced, directly forcing Yang Changfu to sell his property at a low price and couldn't wait to escape from here.
The dragon energy veins in Luojing City are also blocked to a certain extent.
At the moment when Shi Xiaohan was about to cut off the last vine, the invisible black vine seemed to suddenly turn into a living thing, waving its branches and leaves with bared teeth and claws, and suddenly moved towards the location of Shi Xiaohan. Pounce.
Shi Xiaohan had never learned the art of Feng Shui, so he couldn't see the black vine. He only felt a cool wind blowing around him, and he shivered involuntarily.
But Gu Xu’s reaction was even faster.
With a thought in his mind, he took out an improved "Evil Evil Talisman", murmured a curse in his mouth, and threw it towards the black vine.
The moment the talisman came into contact with the black vine, invisible flames burst out from the black vine, which gradually began to melt and crumble, and was finally purified and completely evaporated from the world.
At the same time, businessman Yang Changfu suddenly felt a lightness on his body.
The suppressed and irritable emotions in my heart a few days ago disappeared in an instant. Even the vision became much clearer than usual, as if the whole world suddenly brightened up, and the spirit was lifted.
"Gu...Master Gu, you...what did you just do to me?" Yang Changfu was in a daze for a moment and asked Gu Xu.
"I got rid of your bad luck for you," Gu Xu smiled and replied, "It's just a little effort. No need to thank me."
Yang Changfu was stunned again for two seconds. In seconds, he suppressed the words he was about to say, "Thank you, sir, for your kindness, I will never forget it".
He has long heard that the monks of the Exorcism Department have great powers.
But he did not expect that the monks of the Exorcism Department could not only eliminate ghosts, but also eliminate this invisible and intangible bad luck.
Shi Xiaohan put the "Kunwu Sword" back into its sheath and looked around at the same spot.
In her eyes, Gu Xu's performance just now seemed to be a battle of wits and courage with the air.
At this time, Gu Xu turned to look at Shangguan Jin again: "Fellow Taoist Shangguan, how much do you know about the method of cracking the 'heart poison'?"
"Slightly You know," Shangguan Jin said in a deep voice, "If I remember correctly, the 'Heart Gu' is different from other Gu insects in southern Xinjiang. It does not have a physical body, but exists in the form of a spiritual body. After it is implanted into the human body, it will form a parasitic relationship with the host's soul, absorbing the host's soul power and using it to strengthen its own body.
"The power of true energy cannot harm it.
“If you want to destroy it, you must rely on the pure power of the soul, and at the same time, you must be cautious to avoid hurting the soul of the host.
“I think... I can give it a try. try. ”
Gu Xu nodded.head.
Although he has also practiced the "solar eclipse" spell, the strength of the soul power far exceeds that of monks in the same realm.
But Shangguan Jin is a fourth-level monk after all, and he also has a variety of ways to fight the enemy.
The impression she left on Gu Xu has always been unfathomable.
So, since Shangguan Jin took the initiative to solve the "heart poison" problem at this time, Gu Xu was also willing to step aside and enjoy the feeling of "winning by lying down".
"Mr. Yang, please relax and don't move yet," Shangguan Jin told Yang Changfu, "You still have some minor problems, let me help you solve them."
As she spoke, she narrowed her eyes slightly, and her gaze became extraordinarily deep.
A ray of her consciousness penetrated Yang Changfu's flesh, penetrated into Yang Changfu's sea of consciousness, and saw the small transparent Gu worm hidden in his soul.
"I found you!" The corners of her mouth turned up slightly.
In an instant, the power of her consciousness turned into a sharp sword - just like the Tianyue Sword she usually controlled with her true energy, she stabbed hard at the Gu worm. .
If an expert who is proficient in spiritual consciousness magic sees this scene, he will definitely be deeply amazed by her meticulous control of spiritual consciousness.
The mortal soul is fragile.
As long as there is a slight mistake, it may cause permanent damage to Yang Changfu's soul.
But Shangguan Jin’s spiritual consciousness is precise and fast.
If nothing unexpected happens, this Gu insect will be easily eliminated by her with lightning speed.
…………
At the same time.
In a thatched cottage a few miles north of Luojing and close to Mang Mountain, a sturdy middle-aged woman wearing a cloth shirt was sitting on a futon with her eyes closed and practicing.
Suddenly, she opened her eyes.
"I never expected that my 'heart voodoo' would be discovered. There is indeed a crouching tiger, hidden dragon in Luojing City," she said to herself, "It's just that you want to kill my mother Xin." You have worked so hard to raise Gu worms, you have to ask me if I agree first!"
After finishing her words, a bright silver light flashed from the corner of her eyes.
