The Exorcist

Chapter 6 The Lost City Chapter 27 The Betrayal

New town.

Ruan Zhan sat in the room at the top of the tower, motionless like a statue. On the surface, he was continuing to meditate, but in fact, he was waiting for an opportunity and trying his best to reduce the loss of spiritual energy in his body.

This tower is really magical. As long as the power does not belong to normal human beings, as long as you stay in the tower for a long time, it will slowly weaken, silently and unconsciously, making people feel as if the electric energy is directed into the ground, until it completely disappears!

The person who originally designed this tower didn't know if his magic power was profound, but his Qimen Dunjia and Five Elements Bagua techniques were really amazing. He could do it just by relying on the position and the formations hidden in the building, as well as some simple magic weapons. Generate so much energy!

If it weren't for this tower, he wouldn't be able to lift the seal Sima Nan placed on him so quickly. However, soon after his spiritual energy was restored, it would also inevitably decay.

Those resentful spirits understood the magic of this tower, but they didn't know that Ruan Zhan had been sealed by Sima Nan before, so when they saw that Ruan Zhan's ability did not disappear, but instead strengthened, they thought that he was not controlled by this tower. Therefore, I became afraid of him and never made a move against him.

The resentful spirit pretending to be Xiao Xia couldn't stay in the tower for a long time, so when Ruan Zhan entered the dark room at the top of the tower to meditate again, he slipped out of the tower. She thought that Ruan Zhan was hiding in the darkroom and was trying his best to restore his eyesight. But Ruan Zhan was just waiting for her to leave, so that he could look around and find the place where this spiritual-calming tower was destroyed by Sima Nan, repair it, and make it a place to 'house' resentful spirits and suppress resentment again.

The darkroom at the top of the tower is circular and empty. There is only a circle of extremely narrow glass windows on the four walls, and even the door specially left for easy entry and exit. From the inside, it looks like the tower is half Eyes half-closed. Ruan Zhan felt that this dark room gathered the highest energy of the tower and radiated it out through the small window, forming an invisible aura that enveloped the entire top of the tower. Staying in the tower can only make all kinds of spiritual energy disappear. What really suppresses the resentful spirits and prevents them from getting out is the energy shrouded at the top.

If you feel the aura of this Zhenling carefully now, you will find that its energy is not so balanced, as if it is tilted to one side. Even though it was only a small change, it was like opening the lid of a box a crack, allowing those resentful spirits to escape through the crack!

Where was the damage?

With Sima Nan's personality, he must be doing a lot of construction work and renovating building structures. He likes to use cleverness to win, and he likes the arrogant and unrestrained feeling, so there must be a small place in this tower that is different from when it was built, but it makes the whole Zhenling's formation has undergone fundamental changes!

Thinking of this, Ruan Zhan drew a talisman with a hidden gesture, recited a few spells silently, then stood up and left the dark room. When he walked to the door, he turned around and saw that his body was still in its original position, with Xiaoxia's amulet hanging on his chest. He only walked through the wall when he was sure that the evil spirits who risked spying on him could not see any flaws. And passed.

He had no choice but to leave his body. No one was here to protect his body, so he took a certain risk!

Although the aura surrounding the top of the tower has been destroyed, the dark room is still at the top, so the evil spirit cannot enter. However, they could lie down by the window and monitor, so he had to create some illusion. In addition, he didn't know how to penetrate walls, so he could only use this trick.

The biggest advantage of doing this is: as long as he hides the breath of his soul, he can avoid all eyes and ears and act freely, and he can also pass through all physical obstacles!

In addition, the resentful spirits here are no different than ordinary ones. Not only are they more resentful, but they are also numerous in number. The most terrifying thing is that they obviously have a leader, who is probably the one who has taken over Xiaoxia's body. Her resentment can be maintained in the tower for a while, which proves that her resentment is not ordinary deep, and may even have gone through several years of practice. And she also has considerable organizational skills, organizing those resentful spirits together and exerting their greatest strength.

Therefore, what he faced now was not the problem of resentful spirits, but a small army of resentful spirits.

He walked down the top floor, stopped for a moment on the eighth floor, and couldn't help but look at the glass cabinets on the wall. Seeing that the little porcelain doll with Xiaoxia's cute face was turned at an angle, facing the wall. He knew that it was not what Xiaoxia wanted to reverse. The evil spirit that had taken over her body must have done this because he was afraid that he would notice this change after he regained his sight.

She is so cautious, but it is a pity that there is a thing in this world called cleverness that leads to misunderstanding!

Sima Nan thought that sealing his ability would make it difficult for him to move in the empty town, but he did not expect that the sealing spell would block the tower's ability to absorb spiritual energy for him, preventing his own spiritual energy from rapidly draining; resentment Ling thought that by possessing Xiao Xia's body, he could confuse him, but he didn't know that his eyesight had long been restored, and he was connected to Xiao Xia's soul. He knew everything a long time ago, and now he wanted to use it against him!

He resisted the urge to put Xiaoxia's small porcelain statue in his arms and focused on finding the point of destruction. He could not see when he entered the tower. Although he had come down just now, he pretended that his eyesight had not recovered yet and he could not move his eyes at all, so he only observed the surroundings carefully until now.

The eighth floor is still circular, but the layout is relatively normal, with two large windows on the east and west sides. It's just that the outside is shrouded in thick fog and the scenery outside the window cannot be seen. Considering that this tower is in the center of the town and is so high, it should be able to overlook the whole town and is the place with the best view.

Apart from the two windows, there are only a few large glass cabinets on this floor of the tower. There are various small porcelain figures placed in the cabinet, which must be used to capture the dead ghosts. This tower is ostensibly built to look like a temple tower. It should receive incense when residents move into the town, so that when these evil spirits are punished and go to where they belong, the pious incense here can still pray for them. It shows that the people who originally designed and built the tower felt a little guilty about these resentful spirits.

Could it be that he is also one of the culprits that caused today's situation? Who is he?

Ruan Zhan couldn't help but look at the cabinet again, and then his eyes were attracted by a gossip figure on the ground. The Bagua is embedded in the ground and is made of bamboo. I don’t know what method it was used to treat it. The bamboo pieces are shiny black and it’s really hard to spot in a dark room.

Ruan Zhan walked over and looked down. He felt that there was a little bit of spiritual power hidden in the bamboo piece. Although it was not big, it was enough to make this figure extraordinary. However, the current figure had some minor changes and was missing. There is a small corner that is not easy to detect, which prevents this Bagua diagram from being fully formed.

When I looked up, I saw that there was the same Bagua shape on the ceiling of this floor, which echoed the one on the ground. Moreover, a small part was damaged, but the damaged part was different from the one on the ground.

"He's really got a new trick, and he's eaten it all over the place!" Ruan Zhan sneered in his heart, remembering that during the Luohua Cave Girl incident, Sima Nan also inadvertently destroyed the stone gossip at the entrance of the 'Women's Flower' Entertainment City. It was just a small change, but it turned the spiritual object that exorcised evil into something that attracts evil.

Bagua is the most yang thing in the world. Although in the eyes of laymen, it is just a figure and there is no difference, in fact, Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen and Dui cannot have any mistakes, otherwise it will be used It doesn't matter if it is used as a decoration, but if it is used as a component of a formation to ward off evil spirits and avoid evil, it will have no effect and the formation will lose its meaning.

Therefore, what Sima Nan did was a simple thing, but the destructive effect was the greatest! This is his usual method, always with a bit of contempt for the world.

The damage areas of the Bagua graphics on the ground and the roof were different, so Ruan Zhan carefully identified them, kept them in mind, and then started walking down.

Looking slowly at each floor, Ruan Zhan found that the layout of each floor was similar. However, because the tower was tapered, the floor area became larger as the tower went downwards. However, no matter the size, each floor had its own layout. A glass cabinet full of small porcelain figurines. It's just that the little porcelain figures below the eighth floor are no longer special. They seem to be just handicrafts. They describe some historical figures and folklore. There is no shadow of gloom on them. They are purely decorative.

Of course, there is a Bagua shape in the center of the ground on each floor, but there is only one on the ground. There are corresponding Bagua pictures on the roof, only on the eighth floor. It seems that the pictures on the floor of the ninth floor have penetrated into the roof of the eighth floor. Moreover, the size of these Bagua diagrams is opposite to the area of ​​the floor. The larger the area of ​​the floor, the smaller the Bagua, and their orientations are also different. What's more, these gossips are no longer made of special bamboo pieces, but are similar to invisible graphics, which are invisible to the human eye and can only be seen by people with spiritual power like him.

Without exception, every piece of gossip is damaged a little bit.

In this way, there are eight Bagua diagrams from the second to the eighth floor, and the damaged areas are all different! In addition, he had carefully counted the little porcelain figures on the eighth floor. Excluding Xiaoxia and the others, there were a total of one hundred and seventy-three, which meant that one hundred and seventy-three people died at the same time in the unjust case that happened that year! Such a big thing was actually kept secret, not to mention other places, even the locals knew little about it. This shows the great energy and high means of the person responsible!

The first floor is very different from other places. There are no Bagua diagrams. There are only nine bells, one large, eight small and one small, irregularly placed upside down on the ground. The walls and roof are covered with paintings of Buddha, Bodhisattva and Arhat, which are gorgeous and sacred. However, the tower is now polluted by evil spirits, and the solemnity of the place is gone.

Ruan Zhan observed his surroundings carefully, because although he was not very good at Qimen Dunjia and Five Elements Bagua, according to his inference, there was another key point in this formation.

I looked around and saw nothing. The first floor is like a large Buddhist preaching holy place, without any secret doors or secret rooms.

Ruan Zhan thought for a while and felt that his guess would not be wrong. Then he remembered that when they ran from the square to the tower, although they took a winding corridor, it felt like they were going uphill. There were still several steps to the gate to the tower. The steps almost tripped him when he rushed in. So, the ground on the first floor of this tower is much higher than the horizontal ground outside. In other words, it may have an underground floor!

Having a goal was much easier, and he focused his energy on the floor.

It stands to reason that since he is a soul now, he should be able to see through things that humans cannot see through, but he cannot see what is under the floor. It can be seen that the floor has been specially treated and there is no large hollow. He had no choice but to use his spiritual energy on his yin and yang eyes. After more than ten seconds, he finally saw something special under the ground.

He felt happy, and hurriedly concentrated his thoughts to reach the gap between the big clocks and the small clocks in the center of the floor. He could see clearly just now that there was a void underneath these places, allowing him to penetrate through the ground.

Below the floor is a huge basement, which is much larger than the base of the tower. It is like an underground parking lot. Standing here and looking at the place where you just came down, you can see the gaps between the clocks, which are places where you can pass through the ground. It formed a strange shape, a bit like claws and teeth, like a hand pressing firmly on the ground.

Looking at the underground floor, there is also a huge Bagua in the middle of the ground, but its shape is made of water. It is to dig out a Bagua shape on the ground and fill the hollow with water.

I should say lake water!

It turns out that this piece of ground is flush with the artificial lake surrounding the tower. Because of the connection principle in physics, this is the situation here!

Water is yin, and this natural water trigram has a huge effect on the entire tower, but it is also damaged at this time, and not just a little bit, but completely damaged. It's not that someone destroyed the pool, but that a lot of things were added to the water that shouldn't be there.

If the Bagua upstairs had some things removed, then those things were all added to the Water Bagua at this moment.

"It's really convenient for him. He didn't bring anything here or leave. He just took a little bit from each Bagua upstairs, and then added it all to the Water Bagua. This completely destroyed the pattern of the tower. !" Ruan Zhan didn't know whether to admire Sima Nan or despise him for being so opportunistic.

But he completely admired Sima Nan's meticulous thinking.

He destroyed each bagua in different places, very subtle but the most critical places, and then when he threw the removed bamboo pieces and invisible materials onto the water bagua, he painstakingly messed them up again. If he hadn't carefully memorized every Bagua damage situation from the top, he still wouldn't know how to restore it!

He leaned over and picked up the things that didn't belong here. He first restored the function of the Water Bagua, and then took all the extra things with him. The bamboo pieces were also made invisible, and then he returned to the ground, restoring the Bagua layer by layer. graph function. At this time, he felt that there was a miracle in the coincidence. If his soul had not left his body, not only would he not be able to safely check the damage to the tower, but he would not have discovered and entered the basement.

This basement was sealed when it was built, and the entrance and exit were surrounded by bells with innate power. Wraiths could not see or enter here. Although I don't know how Sima Nan did it, he was But it was only discovered by accident.

Also, he found that his psychic powers quickly returned as soon as he entered the basement. This means that as long as he leaves the normal range of the tower, his spiritual power will not be restricted, which provides a feasible way for him to formulate a decisive battle plan with Sima Nan.

He carefully and patiently repaired the formations in the tower based on his memory. He didn't know that when he was in the basement, a figure had quietly walked upstairs. Not a ghost, actually a person!

It's Mao Fu!

===================

"Is it an accident?" Mao Fu moved the little porcelain figures like a child playing house, placing the little porcelain figures attached to the souls of Xiao Xia, Liu Hong, Zhao Jiayuan, Reporter Ma and Abai alone, and the other little porcelain figures All pushed aside.

"I'm not crazy," he continued proudly, "I'm just pretending to be crazy."

"You are a despicable concubine!" Although Xiaoxia knew that her voice sounded like a mosquito, she still couldn't help but reprimanded loudly. She had hated Mao Fu from the beginning, feeling that there was a sinister aura hidden under his gentle appearance, but she didn't expect that he was even more despicable than she thought.

Unexpectedly, Mao Fu actually heard what Xiao Xia said, but he did not show any shame, but was still very proud, "Those who know how to do things are heroes. The situation is clear now. It is better to help these great immortals than to be locked up in these Strong in porcelain. Do you know? They will not release you. After your body is used, you will be thrown into the lake to feed the fish, but your soul will be left here forever, visited by batches of people. , play with it, or even buy it to take home. Day after day, year after year, there is no end. Don’t worry, I will come to see you! Hehe-"

He tried his best to suppress his laughter, but his expression was extremely excited. Set against this empty and dark empty tower, he looked particularly weird and terrifying!

He said that he was not crazy, but his appearance made Xiaoxia not sure.

"Let me out! Let me out!" Liu Hong cried, "As long as you are willing to let me go, I won't say anything! Please, help me! I will repay you, what do you want? , I’ll give it all to you! Anyone who wants me is fine, don’t you like me?”

Amid Mao Fu's continued laughter, Liu Hong begged.

Xiaoxia really hated that she couldn't move at this moment, otherwise she really wanted to go up and slap Liu Hong twice! For some reason, as soon as I met this woman, her desire for violence became particularly strong! She is still a woman, she has no self-esteem at all, and her character is so despicable, why are there so many people holding her up!

"What about you?" Mao Fu squinted his eyes to look at Xiaoxia and Abai.

Xiao Xia didn't know how he knew about A Bai. Maybe he knew about the fact that A Bai's soul was attached to the little porcelain man. But seeing Mao Fu's filthy virtues, even though she was just a porcelain doll now, she was about to vomit. Seeing that his dirty hands were about to touch her, she bumped to the side with all her strength, causing her 'body' that had been unable to move to move, and almost fell off the shelf.

Mao Fu was startled and subconsciously went to pick it up, "Be careful, you will die if you fall, and you will go with those immortals." His face turned pale.

"I'm not afraid." Xiaoxia said stubbornly.

"Aren't you afraid?" Mao Fu smiled angrily, his face was green and white, and he was really a bit scary. "I'll break it to pieces and you can see."

"You don't dare." Abai, who had been silent, interrupted, "Your master wants to use Xiao Xia to threaten Ruan Zhan, how can he allow you to do whatever you want?" She had always been gentle, but she couldn't help but feel a little angry at this time.

"Nonsense!" Mao Fu looked panicked after someone exposed his lie, "I'll try throwing her now!"

"Okay, come on!" Xiao Xiahuo Dadi shouted.

Mao Fu stretched out his hand, but it stayed beside Xiao Xia for a long time. Finally, he failed to grab it. He had to wave his hand and spin around a few times. Then he grabbed Liu Hong's porcelain statue, raised it high, and placed it next to Liu Hong. With a long scream, he threw her to the ground.

There was just a 'pop' sound, and the little porcelain figure was smashed to pieces. A woman's cry came from the ground, and then a small transparent shadow was sucked into the thick fog outside the tower as if it could not help itself.

The woman's cry and the debris on the ground shocked Xiaoxia and Abai. They didn't know that the cries of Liu Hong as a human and Liu Hong as a soul were so different. The former was annoying, while the latter was gloomy. Moreover, although Xiaoxia hated Liu Hong and sometimes couldn't help but say harsh words, she never thought about letting her die, nor did she think that she would die so easily, so this sudden scene really scared her!

"How's it going? Are you scared?" Mao Fu said proudly.

Xiaoxia panicked and became extremely angry. She never thought that she was also a human being, how could there be such a despicable and shameless human being!

"Why should I be afraid of you? You are just a traitor!"

"Aren't you afraid? Okay, I'll throw Zhao Jiayuan!" He said and stretched out his hand to Zhao Jiayuan.

"No! Mayor Mao!" Zhao Jiayuan was shocked, "Please let me live. I can stay here forever. It doesn't matter how you like. Just leave me a life!"

"Stop hurting others!" Xiao Xia screamed, "We are still human, how could you do this? I'm afraid of you, please put him down!"

"Please!" Zhao Jiayuan continued to cry and beg, "Please remember that I have followed you for so many years and never had second thoughts. Spare my life! I will continue to work for you, just treat me as your dog ! It’s just a dog’s life.”

Mao Fu held Zhao Jiayuan high and hesitated for a moment, as if Zhao Jiayuan's words had touched him. After all, Zhao Jiayuan has always been his lackey. When he pretended to be crazy, he did not abandon him and run away in such a dangerous situation. He was definitely a loyal dog.

Xiao Xia on the side breathed a sigh of relief when she saw his calmer expression, thinking that Zhao Jiayuan had temporarily saved his life.

Unexpectedly, Mao Fu's expression suddenly changed. He waved his arm, lifted Zhao Jiayuan higher, and said softly: "You did a good job before, and I will take care of your family. It's a pity that I can't let anyone You know, I can't take risks, and besides, you are no longer useful to me!" After saying that, he shook his wrist, and with a soul-shaking sound, Zhao Jiayuan was also shattered to pieces, and his soul was sucked away.

"You are so cruel! You are simply not worthy of being a human being." Abai saw two tragedies in front of him, and his kind heart could not bear it, and his voice trembled.

Xiao Xia was speechless. She didn't expect that Mao Fu would kill his own kind without hesitation. This kind of behavior was simply worse than a pig or a dog. It was unimaginable that people could be so selfish, despicable, and ugly in order to protect themselves when facing danger. !

"Whose turn is it now? Reporter Ma?"
