Chapter 202: The murderous fog
Li Daoxuan hurried back to the Li family's old house, covering the wound on his body, his face a little pale.
After a night of fighting, his physical strength was almost exhausted, but the Dan Qi in his meridians was still circulating, maintaining his frail body.
Fighting with this Japanese wizard was extremely dangerous. If the other party had not been a little careless, he might have been in even more trouble.
The Japanese wizard named Kamo Zenyou did have some skills. If it was just a simple competition of qi, he would not be afraid at all. The vast amount of elixir energy in his chest was naturally beyond the reach of ordinary people in the Xuanmen sect.
However, the opponent's methods were cunning and he made good use of magic such as Shikigami, which he was not familiar with, which put Li Daoxuan at a great disadvantage.
He took off his nightgown, crumpled it into a ball, lit the fire talisman, and chanted a loud "hurry". The fire talisman turned into a ball of fire and burned the nightgown in the charcoal stove to ashes.
Li Daoxuan then pressed several acupoints on his body to stop the bleeding from the wound.
He bandaged his wounds with clean white cloth, and then he realized that he had quite a few injuries. Whether it was his thighs, arms, or chest, there were several wounds that were one finger long or even one palm long.
Some were scratched by Kamo Zenyou's knife, and some were bitten by the big fox. They didn't feel any pain when they just came back, but now that they have recovered, the pain is really extraordinary.
He gritted his teeth, clenched his fists and bandaged the wound, then took out a talisman to relieve the pain and mixed it into the tea. The yellow talisman dissolved when it came into contact with water and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Li Daoxuan picked up the tea and drank it, barely healing his injuries.
"I'll have to prepare some medicine for the future." Sitting quietly on the bed, Li Daoxuan recalled what happened.
Although the wound has been relieved, it is not a long-term solution. Using pain-relieving talismans to heal the wound is ultimately not as good as using herbs.
I was reckless last night and was a little careless after entering the secret room. I was only focused on investigating the situation in the secret room. For a moment, I even forgot that the Japanese wizard who was talking to the old village chief might also be hiding in it.
It is a taboo to forget about one thing while investigating, he needs to keep this in mind.
If the Japanese wizard had used the Five Emperors to restrain him from the beginning, and then added the shikigami and the man's own skills, Li Daoxuan felt that if he wanted to get out of it unscathed, he would have to leave something behind.
It's a blessing in disguise that I only suffered some minor skin injuries.
"I seem to have seen his shikigami, the giant fox." Li Daoxuan frowned and thought carefully. He had a deep impression of the giant fox entangled in the basement.
This shikigami gave him a very familiar feeling, he must have seen it somewhere.
Big fox, could it be the yellow fox that has gained intelligence? Li Daoxuan was shocked and thought deeply that it was true.
When the Zhang family's daughter-in-law was stabbed by the peach wood sword and turned into a pile of bones, she pounced on the Zhang family mother and son like a fox or a dog hunting prey. At that moment, Li Daoxuan saw a yellow fox appear in a trance, and then disappeared in a flash.
That big fox should be the resentful yellow fox, but how come it turned into the Shikigami of this Japanese wizard and obeyed his orders?
"It seems that the fetus taken out of the belly should be the prototype of this big fox. Although I don't know what the relationship is, this big fox cannot be left alone. Now that I have discovered the affair between the old village chief and this Japanese wizard, they will definitely do something desperate. I should deal with them properly." Li Daoxuan glanced sideways at the altar on the side, stood up and walked towards the altar.
It was also at this moment that Lijia Village, which had begun to be slowly filled with morning light, was unknowingly filled with thick fog.
Li Daoxuan stood in front of the altar, looked out the window, clenched his fists and closed his eyes.
"Sure enough, they can't wait any longer." Li Daoxuan said to himself, then took three incense sticks and lit them.
He bowed three times towards the altar, raised the incense and chanted: "Grandmaster, Taoist Master, I am Li Daoxuan, a Taoist priest of Maoshan Baiyun Temple. Today, I am here to accept this letter and report to heaven and earth. The evil spirits are in power and the demons are causing troubles in the world. I am willing to sacrifice my life to eliminate the evil spirits. I hope that the Grandmaster will protect me and help me to uphold the righteous way and keep the noble spirit alive!"
After Li Daoxuan finished speaking, he walked forward and lit incense.
He opened his wardrobe and took out his vestments.
He put on the robes and the Pure Yang crown, carried the peach wood sword on his back, held the bamboo sword at his waist, hung the seal in front of him, and hung the true talismans on both sides of the robes.
He hid the still dark poinciana tree, put the jade talisman in his arms, and looked into the cabinet, which contained a gourd and a pebble.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Daoxuan took out the gourd. He always felt that the gourd might have its uses. Then he circled the altar and stepped on the Gang Steps, pinching the Dao formula and chanting the Yan Nei Zhen Mantra: "Heaven and earth are born together, sweep away filth and remove sins. Refining the nine ways, returning to the Taizhen form. All officials accept the spirit, and each joint receives newness. Clear and empty, covering the inside and outside with yin. Save life and prolong life, auspicious day and time. Golden boy and jade girl, hold the towel for me. Xuantai purple canopy, crown and belt on his body. Make me immortal, heaven and earth are of the same root."
He turned three times to the left and right, stood in front of the altar and stamped his feet lightly, turning the Dao formula into the Three Purities Formula, and shouted, "Urgent!"
He drank the tea on the altar, then put away the paper figure and walked out of the house.
Although it was early in the morning, the house was already busy.
When Aunt Sun saw Li Daoxuan coming down, she hurriedly greeted him with a smile: "Third Young Master, you are dressed so nicely today, are you going out to perform a ritual?"
"There are just some things to do." Li Daoxuan said with a smile. He took out the golden talisman from his arms and handed it to Aunt Sun solemnly.
"When I'm not at home, I hang this talisman high above the door beam of the hall. No one else can move it, and no one can get close to it. Stay at home and don't go out. This will keep you safe."
"This..." Aunt Sun was stunned for a moment after receiving the golden spell, and then seemed to understand something. She looked at Li Daoxuan, her lips slightly parted, and a worried look appeared on her face, "Master, is there something wrong?"
"Indeed, there is no way to avoid it." Li Daoxuan shook his head and said.
This Japanese wizard has been planning for a long time, so he will not give up so easily. He must have a backup plan in the village. There are many things that Li Daoxuan could not solve.
But he was not going to tell Aunt Sun about this. After all, this was not something they could interfere with. If he told her, it would probably only make her worry. Thinking of this, Li Daoxuan added, "It's not a big deal. I'll just wait until I come back."
"Okay, okay. I'll listen to you, young master." Aunt Sun nodded quickly and prepared to hang the talisman on the door beam herself.
Li Daoxuan looked at the busy Li family residence and pushed open the door with a smile.
Outside the courtyard and inside the courtyard are another world. Thick fog covers the entire village, as if blocking all sounds, not even the sound of chickens, dogs or insects.
He could only see an area of ten feet in front of him, and in the distance there was fog as thick as milk.
Li Daoxuan pinched his fingers and chanted the Six Ding and Six Jia protective mantras, and stuck a yellow talisman on his chest. He then felt a tightness in his chest and a fishy smell rising in his throat.
He quickly pressed a few acupuncture points to calm the surging Dan Qi in his body. His meridians were already strained and he could hardly control his Qi, which almost backfired on him, causing some injuries to his body.
After a night of fighting, he had not had time to recover. Now he was in a hurry to go out, so he could only deal with it head on.
Fortunately, I used the Yannei mantra to protect myself, so I feel better now.
"He's still a few points short. When will he grow up?" Li Daoxuan sighed in his heart. Too many bad things happened to him. He suffered losses repeatedly. He was still growing up, but he had to fight like this. It was really abuse of a minor. "Sooner or later, I will settle the score."
With a strong determination in his heart, he opened his Dharma eyes and walked into the fog. He wanted to compete with the man who set up the altar and performed the ritual.
The fog was so thick that nothing could be found. Li Daoxuan was walking in the alley when he saw a clay doll standing under the eaves not far away.
This clay doll was different from the ones he had seen before. Its face was covered with white powder, just like the heavy makeup of the women in Japanese TV dramas.
White face, red mouth, and two eyebrows forming a smiling face.
But no matter from where you look at it, this clay doll is extremely terrifying.
"Hehehehe~"
A smile that seemed neither strange nor human came over.
It seemed to be coming from all directions, surrounding Li Daoxuan's ears.
Li Daoxuan pinched the three mountains with his hands, opened his eyes and frowned, and snorted coldly: "The Supreme Star, responds to changes without stopping. Exorcise evil spirits and bind demons, protect life and body. The wisdom is clear, and the mind is peaceful. The three souls are eternal, and the spirit is not lost. Hurry up and obey the order!"
"Purifying Heart Divine Technique! Break it for me!"
