MTL - Capture the Jade-Chapter 31 (two)
It's not enough to harm people for one lifetime, but it also harms people from lifetime to lifetime. "
"That's why it's called Corpse Evil." Qizhi sighed, "Miss Teng, do you still remember the illusion that Juanerli and Gejin saw that night? Juanerli saw the cake shop opened by her late father, Madam Gejin. What I saw was a deserted courtyard."
Teng Yuyi nodded.
"That should be the darkest and most fragile part of her memory. The corpse evil uses this to create an illusion, in order to draw out the most painful memory of the prey."
When Du Tinglan heard this, she finally remembered what was wrong: "Wait a minute, according to this, Juan'erli and Madam Gejin in Caifenglou were targeted by the corpse evil first, and the corpse evil hadn't succeeded, so why did they leave them behind? Man, have you come to look for Ayu instead?"
How dare Teng Yuyi let her sister know that she was born by life, and she doesn't dare to say a word.
Abandoned Zhi said: "I and Juesheng didn't understand this point either, either it has something to do with Mrs. Teng hurting Young Master Jin Yi with a sword. After all, Young Master Jin Yi is the corpse evil's companion, so it probably means to seek revenge by looking for Mrs. Teng first. "
Jue Sheng ran up the steps and said: "There is also a possibility that the corpse evil is playing tricks on the crowd. There are three prey, and they live separately. Even the senior brother can't determine who the corpse evil will hunt first. After all, the manpower is limited, and it is impossible to cover everything. , As a result, the prey is in a state of panic, and the senior brother is exhausted. I suspect that the reason why the senior brother is late tonight is because something went wrong at the Caifeng Tower."
This is possible. When the corpse evil broke into the Chengwang Mansion that night, although Fu Lu had not committed suicide, Xiaoya warned several times, but Xiaoyajian was calm and peaceful tonight.
Abandoning wisdom and striving, trying to catch every trace of evil in the wind: "Maybe the corpse will not come tonight, but even so, don't slack off."
At this time, there was a sudden noise outside the courtyard, and everyone's heartstrings were tense, and they were immediately alert.
Jue Sheng and Ji Zhi shouted, "What happened?"
The servants came in: "Reply to the words of the two priests, the lights in the main room suddenly went out, and they turned on again in a few moments. Cheng Bo has led the guards to check what happened."
Teng Yuyi only felt a gust of wind swept across the back of her neck. The main room was her grandfather's sleeping quarters. This time, when she returned to Beijing, she specially brought back her grandmother's relics. Except for those that she wanted to rub every day, most of them were kept in the main room.
Du Tinglan was shocked: "Could it be that the corpse evil is coming, and the lights of Chengwang's mansion were turned off for no reason last night."
Juesheng and Qizhi ran to one east and one west and stood still: "Be careful, I can't leave this place without permission."
Du Tinglan shouted: "If Cheng Bo has news, come and reply quickly."
The servants left in response, and everyone in the courtyard was frightened and uneasy. Fortunately, Cheng Bo came in not long after, and he entered the courtyard and said, "Don't worry, madam, the two horn lamps in the main room were indeed turned off, but after the old servant carefully The inspection was caused by the exhaustion of the lamp oil. In the evening, the old slave ordered the lamps to be lit in the corners of the mansion. The lamp oil was not enough for a while, and it was extinguished before it could be replenished. It has now been added. There is no trace of thieves breaking in inside or outside, and the master also said that he will personally guard outside the Songtao Hall later, and will not leave half a step tonight."
Not long after, footsteps were heard outside the courtyard again, and Teng Shao personally led the guards, who made Songtao Garden surrounded by airtight, and he stood outside the door holding a lance.
When everyone saw Teng Shao's tall and slender back, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Teng Shao was a famous general with ambition. Divine mighty chilling aura.
Teng Yuyi was still frowning, Du Tinglan thought for a while and said, "After the Chengwang's mansion was turned off last night, everyone in the manor couldn't turn on the fire. It's all here, don't mess around."
After this encounter, everyone no longer had the time to talk, the night was cold as water, and the wind gradually picked up.
Teng Yuyi was worried that her cousin would catch a cold, and dragged Du Tinglan into the house.
Juesheng said: "Miss Teng, Madam Du, if you are tired, you might as well take a break. Last night, Juesheng and I only meditated on the low couch, and we never went to bed."
Du Tinglan and Teng Yuyi looked at each other and smiled.
"These two little dolls are so interesting," said Du Tinglan in a low voice.
Immediately, he said: "Thank you for your kindness, but Ayu and I don't feel tired, just sit for a while."
A look of embarrassment flashed across Qizhi's face: "Sacred Jue, Madam Teng and Madam Du are not like you can take a nap wherever you want. There are so many people inside and outside, they can't sleep even if they want to."
Jue Sheng muttered: "I just want to be concerned, what's in your way? You are so long-winded, even more long-winded than Shizun's old man."
"You, you... you dare to be disrespectful to the master!"
Teng Yuyi was very happy to listen to the two of them quarreling. Who knew that the quarrel would stop after a few quarrels. She was a little bored and had nowhere to go. She simply moved the chessboard in and had a game with Du Tinglan, and soon became sleepy. Reluctantly holding his cheeks, his head couldn't stop knocking down.
Du Tinglan said: "Are you tired? Why don't you sleep for a while, my sister will accompany you."
Teng Yuyi nodded, listening to the calm outside, she fell asleep on the table, Du Tinglan covered her with something in a trance, her body gradually warmed up, her drowsiness became stronger, and she fell asleep soon after.
I don't know how long I have slept, my arms and feet are extremely sore and numb, Teng Yuyi woke up in a daze, and planned to change the pillow on the other arm, just raised her head and realized that her ears were extremely quiet, she sat up suddenly and looked, she was the only one in the room, Du Tinglan gone.
Teng Yuyi's back instantly burst into fine sweat: "Sister."
It was only after the call that I realized that I could speak, how could I suddenly—suddenly be able to speak.
She was in shock and hurried to find the house. Du Tinglan was not in the corridor, no, not only Du Tinglan, but Juesheng and Qizhi were gone.
Teng Yuyi knew something was wrong, was she dreaming? He pinched his arm, it hurt like a heartbreak, and in a hurry, he touched his sleeve, but fortunately, Xiaoyajian was still there.
Teng Yuyi stabilized her mind, clenched her sword hilt and said, "Xiaoya."
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Yajian started to get hot, Teng Yuyi was overjoyed and said in a low voice, "Come out, I have something to ask you."
Unexpectedly, Xiaoyajian soon became cold again. Teng Yuyi did not expect it, and knew that this time was unusual. While looking around nervously, he slowly walked down the steps. Cheng Bo disappeared, Chunrong Biluo disappeared, and in an instant. In between, she was the only one left in the entire Teng Mansion.
Teng Yuyi had an illusion in her heart, as if she had returned to that terrifying night in her previous life. There was an unfathomable trap lurking on the opposite side. All her struggles were in vain. That person was determined to take their lives, no matter where she escaped. , don't even try to escape this catastrophe.
She tried her best to stabilize her mind and paced outside slowly. Grandpa was at the door. As long as Grandpa was still there, everything would be easy to talk about.
She whispered, "Grandpa."
The gate of the courtyard was silent.
"Grandpa?"
Still no sound.
Teng Yuyi's heart sank. Grandpa's ears were so powerful that he would definitely answer when he heard her cry.
This situation was too strange, Teng Yuyi's palms were sweaty, even if everyone in the house ran away, Grandpa should never abandon her.
Did Grandpa have an accident? Her legs trembled, she moved out step by step, her despair spread, and she couldn't help shouting again, "Grandpa."
When she walked to the door and looked up, Teng Yuyi's eyes froze, only to see two people standing in front of a rock outside the courtyard door. The tall and straight one was Teng Shao, and the other was a slender woman.
Tonight, the moon is cloudless, the moonlight shines down, and the world is full of silver. The woman spoke softly and was stroking Teng Shao's face.
Teng Shao's Adam's apple rolled, and he stared at the woman, as if he had been stunned.
Teng Yuyi looked at the woman in awe, and would never see it wrong. The face was clearly visible in the moonlight, with the familiar eyebrows, the familiar corners of the mouth, the familiar sideburns, and even the cinnabar mole under the ear was exactly the same.
Her teeth were chattering, she wanted to go over and take a closer look, but her legs were as heavy as lead. I saw Grandpa kneeling down slowly, hugging the woman's legs and crying bitterly, "Mother Hui."
The woman seemed very sad, she bent down and put Teng Shao's head in her arms, crying more and more.
Teng Yuyi swayed and walked towards the woman in a daze. The woman had a kind of gentle bearing on her body. Hearing Teng Yuyi's footsteps, she turned her head slowly and saw that it was Teng Yuyi, and every line on her face stretched out softly.
The tears in Teng Yuyi's eyes were already shaky, her face could be faked, but her eyes couldn't deceive people. Only A Niang would look at her like this in this world.
Mrs. Teng was even more speechless, and reached out to Teng Yuyi: "Ayu."
Teng Yuyi burst into tears. She had dreamed of this scene many times, but it really came true, but she was overwhelmed. When her aunt came back, she strode forward in choking, and couldn't wait to run over: "My aunt. "
Mrs. Teng burst into tears and opened her arms to wait for her daughter to fall into her arms.
Teng Yuyi cried bitterly and threw herself into her mother's arms. She had only seen the skirt on her mother's body a few days ago when she was sorting out her relics. The familiar weft brocade pattern of the cypress grass secretly matched her mother's name. The relics were kept in the upper room. Mother's unique logo, she smelled the quiet breath on her mother's shirt, and tears rolled down her cheeks.
She recognized it even if it was a dream, no one knows how much she misses A-Niang better than she does.
Mrs. Teng hugged her husband and daughter tightly, tears soon wet the front of her clothes, Teng Shao seemed to be too upset and didn't notice her daughter coming, not only did not say a word, but did not even glance at her.
Teng Yuyi heard her mother's cry, her heart clenched into a ball, she clenched her mother's hands tightly, and whimpered: "Aniang, how are you doing... I shouldn't be dreaming... Aniang, my daughter is obedient, Aniang Don't go any more, okay?"
Mrs. Teng said in a trembling voice, "Okay, A-Niang won't leave. A-Niang will stay by your father and daughter's side and will never be separated from you again."
Teng Yuyi's ears buzzed, and the sudden surprise overwhelmed her head. It took a long time for her to react. While trying to wipe away her tears, she said incoherently to Teng Shao, "Grandpa, did you hear me? already."
Teng Shao turned a deaf ear to his daughter's words, and was still immersed in sadness. Teng Yuyi's heart shrank suddenly, looking at Teng Shao and then at Mrs. Teng, her lips trembled: "Auntie, are you still leaving?"
Mrs. Teng's eyes were full of sadness, and she stroked Teng Yuyi's hair, crying without answering.
Teng Yuyi's mind was empty, from ecstasy to despair, it only happened in an instant, this kind of blow was so cruel, it crushed her internal organs in an instant, she lowered her head in a daze, and raised her head again dumbfounded: "Mother, I, I I can't bear you, please don't go, please, please, A-Niang."
She grabbed Madam Teng's belt and cried like a child.
Madam Teng's eyes were heartbreaking, but her words were cruel: "A-Yu, how can A-Niang give up on you? But A-Niang and you are forever separated, so A-Niang can't help but leave."
Teng Yuyi's entire chest was hollowed out. It felt like a blunt knife slicing flesh, gouging out her heart and liver. She looked at that gentle and amiable face, and said slowly, "Auntie, why did you coax me just now?"
Madam Teng cried, "Because A-niang dreams of coming back to you."
Teng Yuyi's tears couldn't stop flowing down, and she opened her arms at her mother: "Aniang, then hug me again."
Mrs. Teng bent down with tears in her eyes, and Teng Yuyi pressed it even more sobbing, her face suddenly sank, and she took the sword out of her sleeve.
Jian Feng stabbed Mrs. Teng unexpectedly, Teng Yuyi trembled with tears in her eyes: "How could A-Niang deliberately torture her daughter? You are clearly a monster, dare to pretend to be my A-Niang, I will fight with you!"
Mrs. Teng's tears were still hanging on her cheeks, but she couldn't avoid it. Her fingernails were as red as cherries, and instantly soared several inches. A strange smile appeared on her face, and she reached out to Teng Yuyi's heart.
At this moment, there was a sharp screeching sound from behind, and a golden arrow shot into the air, hitting Mrs. Teng's eyebrows.
Mrs. Teng's eyes slanted upwards, leaving Teng Yuyi to catch the strange golden arrow, but at this moment, another silver chain flew out and wrapped around Mrs. Teng's neck with lightning speed. .
Zhexie clasped the silver chain with both hands, and his eyes became extremely violent, but it didn't have time to tear the chain and was dragged away from the place.
Someone exclaimed in ecstasy: "Caught! Caught!"
"Patriarch, bless! I didn't expect Lao Dao to catch the corpse evil in his lifetime!"
"It's still the best way of the prince. If you don't endure until now, can you attract the evil spirits?"
"Hahahaha, it is busy setting traps in order to confuse people's minds, and it is not wary of the mantis catching the cicada and the oriole.
"Miss Teng, you don't know how hard we worked this night to keep you safe!"
But he heard Lin Chengyou say: "Are you making enough noise, hurry up!"
Teng Yuyi lay on the ground and panted for a moment, looked up, and saw several figures standing in the night sky, as vigorous as rabbits, shuttled back and forth, and the corpses were locked in them.
Lin Chengyou carried the arrow box on his back, and flew down from the top of the tree. The corners of his robe were fluttering, as fast as a falcon. When he reached the front, he flipped his wrist and put up a faint yellow talisman between his two fingers.
The corpse evil struggled more and more violently. Seeing Lin Chengyou approaching him, it clenched its fists through its claws, and its yin qi instantly soared.
Everyone's expressions changed drastically, and Teng Yuyi was also stunned. She saw that Lin Chengyou had used the lock soul several times, and she remembered that this thing was invincible.
In the strange cry of "squeak, squeak", the soul lock fell away, like a long snake that was cut off, thrashing on the ground from east to west.
Lin Chengyou's face did not change, not only did he cast off his force, but instead urged the talisman between his fingers to shine like a candle.
Zhe Xie raised his hands, his arms were as stiff as wooden sticks, and he wanted to grab Lin Chengyou's neck, but he was a step too late.
There was a thick stench in the air, and the five Dongming Guan Taoist priests were refreshed and immediately dispersed, each holding a sword, and muttering words in their mouths.
Lin Chengyou pulled out his hand, and with a "whistle" in his mouth, the soul locks on the ground quickly closed into a ball and turned into a silver snake again.
Lin Chengyou leaned over and took it into his hands, fiddling with it twice: "Don't cry, come to my arms to raise it first."
Suo Hun-chi lowered his head, stopped choking quickly, climbed to Lin Chengyou's chest and arched the front of the little master's front, and suddenly disappeared.
Teng Yuyi wiped away the cold sweat and turned to look at the corpse evil. She looked like a mother. This woman looked at most fifteen or sixteen years old, with high buns and double buns, bright colors, small and round cheeks, and rosy and full lips.
If you don't know the details of it, just looking at its innocent appearance, you will definitely recognize it as a girl from a noble family.
Teng Yuyi gritted her teeth and got up. The illusion just now almost crushed her heart, liver and lungs. Everything was fake, and it was only her mind that was bewitched. I knew that the corpse evil method was good, but I didn't expect it to be so realistic.
When she saw the clothes on Zhe Xie's body, she became even more angry.
Zhexie was actually wearing A-Niang's Danyunxia brocade dress. The lights in the room had been turned off for no reason before, thinking that it was to confuse her to enter the room and steal A-Niang's relics.
Dongmingguan murmured and recited the incantation, and the sword tip shot out five snow lights, the corpse was trapped in the formation, and even the hair could not move.
The crowd was both surprised and delighted. The previous scene made people break into cold sweats. Madam Teng was in a dream, and her life might not be saved at any time. In order to grab the soul of the prey, the corpse evil put all her heart into torturing the prey, and planned for a day. One night, I finally waited for a golden opportunity. Lin Chengyou only wanted to hit it with one blow, and he endured it until the last moment.
This kid has a bit of evil in the middle, and his actions are very different from ordinary Taoists, but if it is not harder than the evil spirit, how can he successfully catch the corpse evil?
Madam Teng was even more unexpected. Who would have thought that she would cry so hard that she would not forget to plot against the corpse evil.
Lin Chengyou took out a long golden scorpion from the quiver on his back, and while pulling the arrow and pulling the string, he slowly stepped back: "Miss Teng, you are uneasy, go back to the house first, if you dare not move, you can hide behind me. ."
Wu Dao shouted: "Miss Teng, we have been lying in ambush nearby. In order to successfully catch the corpse evil, we dare not act rashly while watching the corpse evil enter the mansion. If you can't wake up all of a sudden, please wake up Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi, and let them feed everyone with talisman soup."
Teng Yuyi staggered and stood up straight.
She glanced at Lin Chengyou, she was crying and crying, she must have been seen by them, and she couldn't care about it, the corpse evil was too difficult to deal with, since she volunteered to be the bait, she should have been prepared.
Even so, Teng Yuyi was still a little uncomfortable. The secret hidden deep in his heart was suddenly seen, like the armor on his body was openly peeled off, revealing the soft and fragile part inside.
Her eyes were sore, and the tears were still dry on her face. In order to hide herself, she could only clear her throat as if nothing had happened, but she found that she couldn't make a sound. She mistakenly thought that she could speak, but it was just an illusion caused by a corpse evil.
She was worried about her grandfather and cousin, and hurriedly looked around, but couldn't see her grandfather's figure. No wonder she never spoke to her in the fantasy world, and it was because of the evil spirits.
Teng Yuyi ran to Songtao Garden, and right at this moment, she saw the immortal staggered, and the formation was in chaos. Fortunately, he stood firm immediately, but the corpse evil was motionless, but his eyes were rolling.
Lin Chengyou has drawn the bowstring fully, and looked at the corpse evil with a smile: "You are the corpse evil? I have long admired your name. It's uncomfortable to stay underground, and you want to run out to breathe? It's a pity that you bumped into me and made you jump for two days. Give me where I came from tonight."
Zhexie struggled in the formation, suddenly blinked his eyes, and shouted to Lin Chengyou, "Brother."
Teng Yuyi was stunned for a moment, this was clearly the voice of Azhi County Master, and when he looked at it in surprise, the corpse evil's appearance had not changed, but his demeanor and tone were exactly the same as Azhi's.
Lin Chengyou seemed to be stunned for a moment, and Zhexie burst into tears: "Brother, I'm Azhi. You promised to teach me how to ride, so why did you ignore me? I'm afraid, brother, come and hug me."
Teng Yuyi looked at Jianmei and the others, and saw that they were all sweating profusely, thinking that they were trapped in a fantasy world. She had experienced corpse evil methods, so she couldn't help but think badly. She had already decided to leave, and then turned around and ran towards Lin Chengyou, no, no, She has to remind him that if he is also in the game, don't try to surrender the corpse tonight.
Lin Chengyou looked strange, looking at the corpse evil for a moment, maybe Lin Chengyou's mind was disturbed, the corpse evil could not move at first, and gradually his arms could be put down, it stomped its feet, and said with a pouting: "Brother, are you still Angry at Azhi? Last time I knocked over your baby, didn't my brother punish me?"
Teng Yuyi was in a cold sweat, wishing to run to Lin Chengyou immediately, but the corpse evil in the formation burst into tears, and her brows and eyes became more and more like Azhi.
Although the bowstring in Lin Chengyou's hand has not been lowered, the arrow has not been fired yet.
"Azhi" approached Lin Chengyou step by step, and said, "I want to eat the Yuhan mud made by my mother. The jade mud that my brother made for Azhi last time was not good, and it turned into coke. Brother, I'm hungry, take me home."
It walked faster and faster, much faster than Teng Yuyi, with crystal tears hanging on its cheeks, and after a few more steps, it was about to fall into Lin Chengyou's arms.
Teng Yuyi gritted her teeth, raised her skirt and ran wildly, suddenly hearing a sharp sound, the arrow came out from the string, and the golden light flickered, hitting Zie Xie's forehead.
Zhe Xie was not on guard, leaned back, staggered several steps in succession, and returned to the formation.
Lin Chengyou sneered and said, "It's just right for you to get closer to save me the effort."
Teng Yuyi breathed a sigh of relief, Zhe Xie raised his arm and tried to pull the golden arrow from his forehead, but the arrow seemed to have grown into the flesh and could not be pulled out no matter what.
Zhexie looked at Lin Chengyou sadly, and suddenly changed his tone: "little brother."
Strangely, although this time it was also the voice of the little lady, the tone was very different from that of Azhi, and the voice was more immature.
Lin Chengyou was indifferent, and quickly drew out the second arrow, drawing the bowstring again.
Zie Xie said, "Little brother, I saved your life, but are you planning to kill me?"
Lin Chengyou seemed to remember something, and suddenly his face changed greatly, the corpse evil lowered his head, and sighed: "That year you fell into the water in Lin'an Hou's mansion, I rescued you, you gave me pear candy, and said you wanted to take me there Looking for my mother, but you turned around and left me alone. Little brother, I have been waiting for you to find me all these years, but I didn't expect to meet again, but you planned to kill me. "
Lin Chengyou's face was expressionless, but the movements of his hands stopped for a moment.
Teng Yuyi's mind was suddenly confused. She had also been to Chang'an back then, but that memory seemed to have been erased out of thin air.
If it wasn't for the big dream a few days ago, she would not have known that a girl had rescued Lin Chengyou. Lin Chengyou had been looking for that little lady for many years, but she hated the vast sea of people, and there was no news, so she guessed that the girl was either old or old Xiao Xiao is gone, or not in Chang'an at all.
I didn't expect Zhexie to spy on people's hearts to such an extent, I just heard Zhexie's sweet voice: "Little brother, I want to give you back that bag of pear blossom candy, but you let me go away, I'm your savior, why are you like this? wait for me?"
Lin Chengyou didn't respond for a long time, her eyes were clearly blurred, Teng Yuyi ran a few steps frantically, and was about to catch Lin Chengyou's shoulder, but before she could push him, the second arrow came out of the string and shot the corpse at once. right arm.
"That's how you deceive people?" Lin Chengyou looked contemptuous, "I think highly of you."
He didn't wait for the corpse evil to speak again, and quickly shot the third and fourth arrows, one arrow hit the left arm, and the other arrow hit the center of the abdomen.
Finally, he put the fifth arrow on the bowstring and said to Teng Yu, "Miss Teng, what are you doing standing here? It can't help me when it comes to me."
Teng Yuyi looked through the moonlight, Lin Chengyou looked relaxed, but his forehead was full of fine sweat, how could he not? I'm afraid this can only coax him.
Lin Chengyou seemed to be aware, glanced at Teng Yuyi, and then pulled the bowstring as if nothing had happened, this time aiming at Zhexie's throat.
Teng Yuyi originally planned to find her cousin and grandpa, but she was not sure about it for a while. In case the corpse evil dressed Lin Chengyou's grandma, grandpa, and uncle, she wondered if this guy could hold it.
Seeing that Lin Chengyou was about to shoot the fifth arrow, Teng Yuyi weighed it over and over and had to stand behind him.
The author has something to say: konjac sauce dew sunflower soup: a very light soup. Wang Wei has a poem: "Rice with sugarcane pulp and sunflower soup with konjac sauce". It's this soup.
