Attack Jade (攻玉) - Chapter 7
[Chapter 7]
Lin Chengyou said lazily: “Lady Teng is right, this monster is not small, a meal is indeed impossible to eat, take it back and slowly pickle it, eat its arm today, eat its head tomorrow, if a person can’t eat it too much, it’s a big deal to call relatives and friends to eat together.” The
old demon was furious when he heard it, and his body was together, as if he was about to go out, and when everyone looked at it, his heart instantly jumped to his throat, and the old demon was agitated for a while, and he actually endured it alive.
Teng Yuyi had been secretly pinching the sweat and taking all this effort, even though the old demon still refused to be deceived, the hour was running out, and no one in the courtyard could escape.
Lin Chengyou was as steady as Mount Tai, slowly turning the handle of the sword: “While this demon does not dare to move, I will try it now to see if this jade sword is easy to use, or the Nine Heavens Xuan Sword.”
He sneered, spread his arms slightly, jumped down the beam, and pulled a sword flower in mid-air, pointing directly at the old demon’s eyebrows.
The old demon knew the power of the emerald sword, the hard block was a dead end, so he fell up in the sky, and he took off in the air, tonight he really met two nemesis, only to injure Lin Chengyou, and then a Teng Niangzi appeared, in exchange for Teng Niangzi to stab down, there is no need to wait for the other party to get close to him, it can tear it into pieces, but the sword fell into Lin Chengyou’s hands.
“Shizi is nearly the age of a weak crown, how can it be as if he has never seen a beauty, openly covet my flesh and skin, and not be afraid of people’s jokes?”
She smiled softly and deliberately flew around the line, Lin Chengyou wanted to force her out of the lineup, she wanted to lure him in.
Lin Chengyou suddenly retracted the castration, and smiled badly and leaned back: “Excuse me, are you hurting too many people?” It was so ugly. Have you heard a saying, ‘born from the heart’, even in the monster, your appearance is really ugly, I don’t say eat your flesh, more look is too greasy and crooked. The
old demon’s face changed drastically, she had been cultivating for hundreds of years, she had never been able to cultivate a beautiful appearance, if she hadn’t started to forcibly occupy the beauty skin bag a few months ago, she still had an old ugly face.
After grabbing the shells of more than a dozen women, they were not very desirable, until they bumped into the Duchess of Anguo, and they did not know what was beautiful.
After being a great beauty for several months, she almost forgot her original appearance, and Lin Chengyou’s words were like sharp blades, stabbing her heart and liver at once.
Her eyes were as sharp as poisonous arrows, and her lips began to twitch: “You are looking for death!”
Lin Chengyou added fuel to the fire: “Lady Teng, do you really want to eat it, so that you are not afraid of being damaged by its poisonous gas and your appearance?” “That’s
right, too.” Teng Yuyi changed his mind, “Or take it back to feed the cows and horses.” The old demon’s
eyes were red, and he couldn’t hold back any longer, and his legs stomped on and he suddenly rose from the ground: “Crazy people who don’t know whether they are dead or alive, tonight I will ask you to taste the taste of life is worse than death.” Lin Chengyou’s
body stopped, smiled and turned back to escape, but unexpectedly touched the sore spot, and his body fell to the ground.
Absolute Saint and Renunciation exclaimed, “Brother Master! The
guards were stunned and rushed forward.
The old demon hated it fiercely, how could he miss this perfect opportunity, without chasing out of the battle, the probe claw could tear Lin Chengyou in half.
Lin Chengyou was really seriously injured, he couldn’t stop coughing, the old demon laughed sinisterly, his men were about to exert their strength, even if Lin Chengyou laughed twice, he suddenly clasped her claws with his backhand, taking advantage of the old demon’s time to shrink his hands and drag her to the sky.
This move was caught off guard, the old demon’s secret path was bad, it was almost the last few breaths of spiritual power, and actually touched Lin Chengyou’s dao, fortunately, the formation was at his feet, and it was too late to go back.
Because she was anxious to get out, she released a cloud of blazing black mist, and Lin Chengyou threw her aside, but she drank in her mouth: “Change!” The
two little Daoists who only knew how to cry actually jumped up, running around the courtyard like flying in their Daoist robes, staggering back and forth, and changing their formations in the blink of an eye.
The old demon was not good in her heart, hurriedly chanted a mantra, the vines under her feet heard the call, soared several feet around her feet, she was about to summon them to pull her back into the formation, but in the blink of an eye, two golden rays sprang up behind the little DaoTong, the light intertwined, swirling upwards, touching the coiled golden net overhead, the three golden rays merged into one, the old demon only felt that the force came up from the soles of her feet, and before she could jump into the formation, it was far out of the line.
The old demon fell to the eaves in a hurry, and it was difficult to ease up, and when he looked up, he saw Lin Chengyou standing on a tree not far away, looking at her with a smile.
“Can you stop me from absorbing spiritual power, from becoming a demon?” The old demon gritted her teeth in hatred, Lin Chengyou tried every means to lure her out of the battle, Xiao Daotong was responsible for sealing her retreat, but she hated that she was tricked by Lin Chengyou, and she didn’t know when the three of them communicated under her eyes.
Lin Chengyou, however, no longer fought with the old demon, and threw the emerald sword to the guards below: “Return it to Lady Teng.” Then he
jumped down from the treetops: “Move, change the Xuantian Array.” Xiao
Daotong replied in a loud voice, “Yes.”
Teng Yuyi took the jade sword, turned around and pulled Lady Du away, successfully lured out the old demon, and then it was much easier to do.
The old demon looked at it in the moonlight and understood that Lin Chengyou’s snow-white collar was full of blood stains, he had already injured his lungs, and only then did he use all his internal strength to drag her out of the battle, and now it was the end of the crossbow, and he couldn’t last long.
Seeing that Teng Yuyi was going to run, she immediately changed her mind, left Lin Chengyou, and turned to pursue Teng Yuyi.
Teng Yuyi slipped quickly and ran to the door in the blink of an eye.
The old demon rushed along the eaves tiles, tonight she chased to the Ziyun Building, in addition to revenge for that sword, but also because of the great loss of the Lady of AnGuo, instead of wasting her own strength to continue her life to the weak shell, it was better to find a fresh beauty skin bag.
This little lady surnamed Teng was born white and bright, although not as plump as Lady An Guo, but with a little more of a girl’s attitude, she was very surprised by Teng Yuyi’s appearance, and she had already moved her thoughts.
The strange thing was that knowing that she was pursuing Teng Yuyi, the first three people behind her actually did not stop her, only listening to Xiao Daotong: “Brother Master, do you really want to use this array of fa?” “It’s
all set up, what else are you talking about?”
“But I just remembered that Master Zun said that the Xuantian Array needs to obtain the main array of the boy’s body… Otherwise, not only will it not be able to go up to the sky, but it will also harm the people who deploy the position.
“…”
Another person also said, “Although this array of fa can kill all four parties, if master and brother are not… There was no need to force it, it was a big deal to catch the old demon with other formations first, and then send it back to the Qingyun Temple, and then set up a formation to suppress it. The
tree demon laughed secretly, worthy of being a child with a young mind, and in the face of such a stupid boy as Lin Chengyou, he could still ask such stupid questions.
It seemed that this time it could not be put up, and she was more and more relaxed.
The crowd scattered and fled, Teng Yuyi was dexterous and took the lead in running outside the courtyard, the old demon was inexplicably excited, and chased after him all the way.
Teng Yuyi was terrified, and scolded while running through the wall: “Demon, you still want to harm people when you are dying, and you see who is behind you.”
Old Demon: “Do you still expect Lin Chengyou to save you?” He was so badly injured by me that he couldn’t take care of himself for a long time.
Teng Yuyi sneered, “I don’t expect anyone, but if you’re not afraid that your left paw will also be cut off by me, you can try it.” The
old demon remembered how Teng Yuyi and Lin Chengyou had just joined forces to lure her out of the battle, and he was so angry that his teeth itched, and he angrily broke the wall in front of him, leaned over to catch Teng Yuyi, and suddenly felt a strange wind hit her back, gently and slowly, like a sponge.
The old demon’s heart gushed out an ominous premonition, wanting to turn his head to find out, but the strange force rose sharply, like a male soldier who would sound a gong and beat a drum, drive a thousand flags, drive a hundred soldiers, and crush the mountains and the sea above her head.
The old demon’s brain roared, gathering his whole body to fight back, but this strange force was very different from the spells encountered before, and Hehe Yangyang contained infinite righteousness, and it was not allowed to dodge at all, and the power of a thousand jun was smashed down on the head.
The old demon was frozen in mid-air, his soul seemed to be crushed into pieces, and he struggled to look up, only to see the fire dragons wandering around in the courtyard, most of them were entangled, either screaming bitterly or burning into black ash in an instant.
The night wind sent a low chanting of incantations, knocking on the golden jade, light as a spring, carefully arguing, it was Lin Chengyou’s voice.
“Carry the camp to hug one, I’ll come to the Imperial Charm.”
“Broken—”
The old demon’s eyes bulged slightly, and before she could struggle, a ray of light went like snow and struck her face door hard.
The old demon howled in pain, desperately trying to break free of the restraints, but the snow light wrapped around her like a spirit snake, binding her tightly.
Lin Chengyou hung in mid-air, the voice of the mantra was higher than a sound, the old demon could not stop trembling, from the face to the neck, an inch exposed the brown and black knotted bark, the long hair on the shoulders, but also slowly turned into wisps of branches.
Seeing that hundreds of years of skill were about to be destroyed, the old demon regretted it too late, and he couldn’t help but cry out.
Her voice was desolate, and she seemed to be overwhelmed with sorrow, Lin Chengyou was indifferent, but Xiao Daotong and the guards moved their hearts of compassion, and how many sad things in her abdomen seemed to be aroused by this cry.
Lin Chengyou scolded in his heart, and at this time, he was still playing tricks, releasing his anger to confuse people’s minds, and people who did not know how to guard against it often fell into the essence of the muscles and did not know it.
He flicked away the rune paper on the altar wood of the town, waved his sleeve, and struck out the town altar wood, and the old demon was beaten so excitedly that the crying suddenly stopped.
Absolute Saint and Renunciation shook their heads and suddenly woke up.
Lin Chengyou fell back into the formation, dragged the old demon who had lost his strength to the front, and asked with a smile: “Playing so many tricks, do you want me to let you go?” The old demon’s
eyes rolled, trembling and nodding desperately.
“You answered me honestly a few questions, and if you answered them, I could consider not knocking you back to your original form.”
The old demon whimpered in his mouth, unable to ask for it.
“A few months ago, you were just a tree demon at the foot of Liquan Mountain, neither could you enter the Demon Dao, nor did you have ordinary skills, since you infiltrated Chang’an, you have killed more than a dozen women in March, who enlightened you to cultivate the Demon Dao?” Who taught you the method of snatching the body of the human body? You sneaked into the bamboo forest by the river tonight, is someone waiting for you there, or is it just for evil? The
old demon looked complicated, hesitated for a moment, and pointed to his throat.
Lin Chengyou flicked his fingers, the old demon coughed several times, and said in a dumb voice: “Speaking of all by chance, no one has ever pointed out, I practiced hard in the mountains, that night I encountered a thunderstorm, in order to avoid robbery, I broke into a cave, unfortunately encountered a landslide, trapped in the cave for several months, inadvertently broke the Heavenly Dao, the method of seizing people’s shells was realized by myself, the reason why I went to that bamboo forest tonight was because I was impatient to use my strength every day to continue my life, I want to change into a fresh beauty shell.
Lin Chengyou smiled and nodded, and with a wave of his robe sleeve, the fire on the old demon’s body burned up again, and every bone crack was drilled into ten thousand ants, making people feel pain.
The old demon cried bitterly, “If Shizi doesn’t believe it, he can personally go to the back of Liquan Mountain to look for it, the mountain where I am located has not been visited for thousands of years, and it has long become an empty mountain and a valley.”
Lin Chengyou was simply hearted with stone, not only did he not stop, but he also signaled that he would never be holy and abandon his mind faster.
The old demon could not bear the humiliation, and scolded bitterly: “Lin Chengyou! You little man, if you say that you have answered the question and let me go, how can you say that you have no faith? As
soon as her voice fell, the rune paper turned into a fire dragon and climbed up the old demon’s legs, and this time it even turned into a tree root on the lower half of its body.
Lin Chengyou’s smile was full of cruelty: “You have mutilated so many lives, do you still expect not to suffer hardships?” I don’t give you many opportunities, you don’t want to play tricks, honestly tell me, who is the person who ignited you? The
old demon knew that if she came back twice, she would definitely be beaten back to her original form, she had endured for hundreds of years, how willing to be an ignorant and unconscious old tree, struggling and struggling, only to drink and swallow: “I said, I said…”
It swallowed the spit and was about to open the cavity, the sky suddenly lit up, and the dome above her head heard the sound of clams, without waiting for the crowd to react, A snowy light rolled down.
Lin Chengyou’s face changed slightly, and this thing went straight to the eye of the array, clearly coming to save the old demon.
His eyes were fast, and he hurriedly dragged the tree demon backwards, and the dragon lost his control, instantly knocking the old demon back to its original form.
The strange thunder seemed to have a sense of consciousness, and actually turned into a white mist hidden in mid-air, coming and going invisible, as if it had never appeared.
The Absolute Saint and the Renunciation Wisdom recalled the town altar wood, and they stood up and hugged to the near front, looking down at the original form of the old demon, a young tree that was neither thick nor thin, surrounded by green moss, and the smell of strange smells came to the nose.
The two were shocked: “Brother Master, that strange ray came to save the old demon?”
Lin Chengyou stared closely at the direction in which the light came, and took out the lock soul from his arms and tied the young tree to the two of them: “Stay in the broken knot.” Then
he rushed to the few guards who were still wiping sweat, “You will quickly send a few wounded and Lady An Guo to Zhaolexuan for resettlement, and I will return when I go.”
He jumped onto the wall and instantly melted into the night.
***
The courtyard of Zhao LeXuan is cramped, there is only one bedroom in total, and the two families of Teng Dong have no choice but to be placed in one place.
Most of the palace people were frightened, and the guards were also worried, until they stopped packing up, and the people were still a little unincorporated.
Mrs. Du’s legs trembled, and Teng Yuyilou patted Teng Yuyilou in her arms, Teng Yuyi recalled the situation of Fang Cai Lin Chengyou dealing with the old demon, it was full of doubts, Lin Chengyou not only asked the old demon why he went to the bamboo forest, but also guessed that someone was waiting for it there, which she had never thought about before, when she brought Duan Fu and others to arrive, there were only old demons and cousins in the forest, only knowing that the cousin was attacked, and knew nothing about the cause.
If the old demon did not accidentally break into the bamboo forest, but went to the appointment, where was the man hiding? If the cousin is attacked by the old demon, will it be because the cousin accidentally bumped into something?
She pondered back and forth for half a moment, and the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, and she overheard her aunt whispering to her cousin, which turned back to God.
The medicine given by Lin Chengyou had a miraculous effect, the strange gold on her cousin’s body had all faded, and although Bai Zhi and Hong Nu were still asleep, they also showed signs of improvement.
Duan Fu was placed under the outer porch, and when Teng Yuyi went to see it, his breathing gradually became stable.
On the bed by the window, The Duchess of An Guo and the second lady of the DongXian Ling family were lying side by side, one was as angry as gossamer, and the other was still unconscious because she had not taken medicine.
The steward lady escaped from death, and when she eased up, she remembered that all the Dan medicines given by Lin Chengyou had been snatched away by Teng Niangzi, and now the few Pills taken by the Teng family had improved, but the life of her second lady was hanging in the balance, she couldn’t help but be worried, while taking care of Dong Erniang, she glanced at Teng Yuyi from time to time, her eyes were hidden, full of accusations and resentment.
Teng Yuyi sensed the line of sight behind him and turned his head to see what was going on, when the palace people came in and said, “Before Shizi left, he said that he had something to verify, and several of the people in the house were unmarried young ladies, so let the slaves make some arrangements in advance.”
Madame
Du vaguely heard a few words earlier, only when Lin Chengyou wanted to come over to investigate the injury, the original men and women were worried about the defense, this time completely relaxed, hurriedly responded: “Yes.” The
steward lady looked forward to asking for a few more life-saving pills from Lin Chengyou, and she promised everything: “Listen to the arrangement of Shizi.” The
palace people then placed the five female wounded side by side on the bed, with a thick curtain, revealing only the bottom of the roof.
When Teng Yuyi helped to pull the curtain, he inadvertently looked at Dong Erniang, and unexpectedly found that Dong Erniang’s face was not golden gray, and the breath was even stable.
Oh, didn’t you get poisoned? As soon as her heart moved to look closely, the steward lady blocked the curtain because she was afraid of the wind.
Teng Yuyi simply went around to the other end of the curtain and looked at it again without moving, just at this moment, the footsteps outside came and went, and someone began to speak in front of the court, and the palace people promised a few words, lifted the curtain and came in: “General Duan Xiao of the Zhenguo Gongfu and Lady Yong’an Hou have come.”
Lady
Du was stunned: “General Duan Xiao and Lady Yong’an Hou?” Duan Xiao’s name was
Duan Ningyuan, the eldest son of the Zhenguo Gongfu and Yu’er’s fiancé. Duan Wenyin, the wife of Yong’an Hou, was duan Ningyuan’s sister of a mother. When Duan Wenyin was seventeen years old, he married the Marquis of Yong’an in Luoyang.
The Duan family’s siblings are only three years old, and they have always been affectionate. In the future, when Yu’er marries Duan Ningyuan, she will have to call Duan Wenyin a “sister”.
Lady Du smiled and wanted to get up, and the palace people said, “Tonight the Duan family is also watching the Ziyun Building, and when they heard that Lady Teng was frightened, General Duan Xiao and Lady Yong’an Hou came to help, and several other wives who were related to the Zhenguo Gongfu heard about this and also rushed to take care of it.” In order to catch the demon, Shizi banned the middle gate, and they had to wait for the news in the middle hall. Now that he heard that Shizi had ambushed the demon, he came to the inner garden, and Lady Yong’an Hou asked outside if the lady and the little lady could come in to visit. At
the moment when the palace people spoke, there were many women under the porch whispering, but they did not hear Duan Ningyuan’s voice.
Teng Yuyi sneered in her heart, but her face was as usual, and Madame Du only patted the back of her hand when she was shy, and whispered: “It came so timely, and the Duan family also has a heart.” The
thick curtain had been blocked in front of the bed, and Mrs. Du had no scruples, straightened the towel in the crook of her arm, and warmly greeted her: “Please come in.” At
this time, there was a noise outside, and someone entered the courtyard again.
“There are five people injured, except for the Teng family, who is the other family?” It was Lin Chengyou’s voice.
Teng Yuyi was a little surprised, Lin Chengyou turned around so quickly, I don’t know what I could find.
“She is the second daughter of the Ling family in Dong County, Wannian County.” Tonight she made an appointment with several officials to drink a banquet on the riverside, and on the way to the banquet, she accidentally bumped into the evil cult, and rushed back to the city to save her, afraid that it was too late, and when she heard that she had invited the Dao Chief, she entrusted Lady Yong’an Hou to take care of her and also entered the Ziyun Building.
After
Teng Yuyi glanced at the curtain meaningfully, she should have expected that if there was no nobleman to invite, the family members of ordinary officials could not enter the Ziyun Building, and the “nobleman” who originally brought Dong Erniang in was no one else, it was Duan Ningyuan’s sister Duan Wenyin.
Their sisters and brothers have always been deeply in love, and in the past life, Duan Ningyuan was almost expelled from the Zhenguo Gongfu because of his retirement from her, and it was up to Duan Wenyin to come from Luoyang to say good things for his brother.
In the past few days, it is not surprising that Duan Wenyin returned to Chang’an, but the Dong family had an accident and did not ask others to favor Duan Wenyin’s head, and what is even more strange is that the two families have never been alive, and Duan Wenyin should have also inherited, except for being entrusted by his younger brother Duan Ningyuan, Teng Yuyi could not think of any other reason.
She calculated the day, it was early spring at the moment, and there were still three months before Duan Ningyuan went to the door to retire, so it could be seen that Duan Ningyuan had a heart for Dong Erniang, earlier than she expected.
Lin Chengyou said, “I want to go into the house to inspect the injury, and everything is arranged inside, right?” When the
steward lady heard this, she immediately bounced up from the bed, ran to the door with a cigarette, and knelt down: “Ask Shizi to save my second wife, Fang Cai Shizi gave the medicine to the little lady of the Teng family to arrange, but my second wife was not blessed, not a single grain was distributed, and now the second lady’s life is hanging in the balance, only to ask Shizi to save her life.” I
heard a young man exclaim, “The medicine has not been distributed to your second wife?!” It was
Duan Ningyuan’s voice that implied anger and accusations.
The steward lady only prostrated her head and cried silently.
The author has something to say: “I have come to the Imperial Charm” – from Han Yu’s “Eighteen Laws of the Chu Nan Food Yi Yuan”.
