Before the old Taoist could react, Xu Shenxing stomped on the flames with quick eyesight and quick hands, kicking sparks in all directions.
But that ray of sparks seemed unwilling to give up, and the splashing sparks immediately ignited the fluffy carpet not far away, and the fire spread again immediately.
"It's unscientific that such a big fire can be instantly burned by a small spark!"
Seeing the flames as high as a person rising from the carpet, the old Taoist shouted suddenly.
Xu Shenxing didn't bother to answer, ignored the raging fire and walked to the carpet, and directly covered it with a cloud of scales, intending to completely extinguish it.
It seemed that they understood that if they were covered by the cloud scales, everything would cease, so the flame rose up again as if it had life, and ignited the tablecloth beside it, and the flames did not spread anymore, but simply moved towards the old Taoist priest. burn away.
When the old Taoist saw the flame and saw Xu Shenxing, he fell into that state, couldn't help but lifted up his exaggerated cloud sleeves, held a bunch of paper talismans and shouted, "Bold monster! Shit!", and walked towards the flame spilled out.
However, it was of no use. Instead, the flames used the paper talismans as a platform to burn further towards the old man.
Seeing that the old man was so useless, Xiao Zhengyi simply knocked him away from the path of the flames, then pulled out the Yuanrong Sword with his backhand, and thrust it into the ground, blocking the path of the flames!
At the same time, Xu Shenxing's Yunlin had completely extinguished the flame.
A wisp of faint black smoke that only Xu Shenxing could see slowly floated out of the ashes, probably trying to disguise it as ordinary smoke.
In the end, Xu Shenxing raised his hand and punched him away.
"What's that?" Xiao Zhengyi felt as if his ears were ringing, but he found that the old Taoist also showed a similar expression, and Xu Shenxing's actions just now, so he asked.
"Part of the curse."
Xu Shenxing replied, pointing to the old Taoist priest: "This guy is also cursed."
"what?!"
The old man's eyes widened: "Impossible! This old man is not a mortal. If he is cursed, how could he not feel anything at all!"
"So this is the troublesome part of the wraith-type curse," Xu Shenxing replied calmly: "Generally, curses that can be spread through certain channels, after the curse takes effect and cause harm to people, the result will be fed back to the curse." itself, making it stronger. If it was just that kind of curse, I would be able to kill the curse itself with a single punch along the causal line... The single wraith-type curse is an exception, and other curses are based on strengthening themselves The main thing is that only the wraith-type itself will not grow the body, but it will proliferate almost infinitely and the cursed individual that is almost indistinguishable from the body... "
"If you want to use an analogy, a general curse is like a lurking monster. As the curse takes effect, it will continue to grow stronger, but as long as the monster is defeated, the curse will end; but the wraith-type curse is just a zombie in the last days , although the strength of the individual is not strong, but it can proliferate infinitely, even if many are knocked down, as long as one body remains, there is still the possibility of flooding again."
"Isn't that invincible!" The old Taoist turned pale with shock.
"No, the wraith-type curse naturally has its shortcomings... Because it will not feed back the curse itself, so each individual cursed by the wraith-type curse is very weak. As long as the cursed person is a little stronger, the curse will be almost ineffective."
Xu Shenxing continued to explain.
"Why do I always feel that you, Old Xu, seem to be very familiar with things like curses..."
Xiao Zhengyi looked at Xu Shenxing suspiciously.
Xu Shenxing said in his heart: Nonsense, because I used to eat seven or eight curses a day on average, and I got used to being cursed... And so far, none of the curses have worked except for hair loss!
But it definitely can't be said.
So he simply dumped the blame on Xingyan Ameng.
"I also heard from Qin Xingyan!"
Xiao Zhengyi was also a frequent visitor to Ying Apartment, so he naturally knew that the weak-looking girl could indeed beat Xu Shenxing in terms of theoretical knowledge, so he didn't have much doubt.
"Anyway, do you have any clue about this curse?"
Seeing that he seemed to have successfully fooled the past, Xu Shenxing immediately changed the subject and asked the old man.
"This... this old man has been kind to others all his life, so I can't think of anyone who would curse this old man..."
The old Taoist seemed a little embarrassed, his eyes rolled away, he didn't look at Xu Shenxing and Xiao Zhengyi, and just said like an old god.
"Oh, then we can't take care of this matter, Lao Xu, let's go." Seeing that the old man was obviously lying, Xiao Zhengyi walked towards the door and left.
"Wait a minute..."
The old Taoist immediately became anxious. When facing the curse, his half-baked Taoism was useless at all. If Xiao Zhengyi and Xu Shenxing really left him alone, they would probably be able to collect their bodies tomorrow. .
"Well, the old man has been aboveboard all his life, and he does things cleanly. Let's just talk about the novels that the old man has written. If you talk about eunuchs, you are eunuchs. No matter how good your grades are, you don't hesitate at all! It's a pity that this clean and neat old man Behavior is no longer a priority in this world, and some readers actually sent blades to the old man... So the old man softened for a while, and ended all the pits, um, using the method of meteorite escape. As a result, the next day, Instead, the number of blades sent has increased... Hey, people in this era are still too impetuous."
Realizing that what he said was a bit lost, he coughed dryly: "In short, because of the above reasons, it is not impossible for readers of my novels to curse me."
"Honestly... I don't think you are wronged even if you are cursed..."
While they were still chatting, the computer made an ominous hissing sound again.
This time it was no longer sparks, but the whole thing burst into flames.
Afterwards, the home appliances in the house were more or less overloaded and short-circuited. In just a moment, the luxury apartment was filled with white smoke and the pungent smell of burnt insulating rubber.
"I said how many outrageous things have you done..."
Even Xiao Zhengyi was a little surprised by this battle.
"Damn it?! How obsessed are those readers with killing me!"
The old Taoist was so frightened that his beard turned up: "The old man has already apologized, what else do you want!"
As if in response to his words, sparks shot out from many short-circuited electrical appliances in the luxury apartment.
The next moment, a bigger fire than before swept through the entire apartment.
