Xu Rucheng couldn't understand abacus since he was a child, and he didn't know how to do small business like Wei Chengxiang. He couldn't count how many "Zhao Xidan" ran around the world, except him.
He hurriedly said, "Senior, can you stop her?"
Xi Ping watched Zhao Xidan's fast-moving figure, and stroked the Tai Sui strings with his fingers: "Yes."
"Then don't let her come back, isn't this messy enough!"
Xi Ping didn't move, and was silent for a while, then he asked back, "Why don't you let me go?"
Xu Rucheng: "..."
"She will always go back, not now but in the future." Xi Ping said flatly, "Wouldn't it be wonderful to go back just in time for the big show to start?"
It is said that Zhao Xidan was smart and hardworking. He spent all day in the Yanhai Building when he was in Qianxiu Temple. He was one of the few disciples that Luo Qingshi looked down on.
It's just that I don't know if this eldest lady is knowledgeable enough, and has she ever heard of the "spiritual pattern seal".
Xi Ping turned his head and passed a message to Wei Chengxiang, asking her to follow secretly.
Before Wei Chengxiang finished listening to the story, the veins on his fist had already floated up like earthworms, and he said in a deep voice, "Senior, don't worry. I will take good care of her."
Xi Ping asked inexplicably, "What do you think she is doing?"
Wei Chengxiang: "..."
"Whether she wants a 'long view' or a 'short view' is none of our business. If she is a fool, I have a way to stop her. You don't have to worry about it." Xi Ping instructed, "The Zhao family wants to give the girl a tattoo. I won’t sneak tattoos behind closed doors. At least let the emperor of Yujiawan be a witness. I let you follow her to see if you have a chance to explore the bottom of Yujiawan. Just don’t rush in, Yujiawan Next door to Xie Chong's Nest, the ability to occupy so many resources steadily for so many years must not depend on the grandson of Emperor Bing of Sanyue's inner sect, be careful."
Xi Ping's estimate was very accurate - from Tao County to Yujiawan, it took a whole day to travel by car and horse, but Yujian only took a moment. The sun was about to climb to the sky, Wei Chengxiang followed Zhao Yudan all the way to the Zhao family's secret place, and hit the Yu family's car "lulu" passing by. There are horse-drawn carriages and new cars from Dawan, all of which are tied with red silk and are pulling a string of large and small boxes.
The Zhao family waited early at the entrance of the secret realm to meet the local snakes. The nouveau riche in Yujiawan was impressed by the heritage of the Zhao family. The Zhao family saw the rich family background of the Yu family and eagerly wanted to integrate into the three mountains of Western Chu.
The two sides hit it off immediately and compared their enthusiasm.
Zhao Xidan has an inscription on her body that allows her to enter and leave the secret realm freely. She carefully drew a few very partial circles on her body to hide her appearance, and sneaked in from another entrance of the secret realm.
After all, this is her home, and she knows every plant and tree like the back of her hand, so she easily knocked down a guard who was patrolling alone, and mixed into the welcoming team. Wei Chengxiang followed her example, wearing the Lu Wu mask that Senior Tai Sui brought out from the Snake King Immortal Palace, and put it on the tail of the guards.
I heard the patriarch of the Zhao clan lead the guests in, and said: "... Yes, you can rest assured if you settle down early. Dandan has already gone to prepare, the little girl is not talented, she is just a person with roots, and she has been in Qianxiu Temple for nearly nine years. It took only a month to enter the Tao, only the inspiration is slightly stronger than others... "
No one in the whole family found out that she had gone away, Zhao Xidan became more and more suspicious, and said in his heart: "Could it be that I am dreaming, someone here is really pretending to be me?"
Zhao Xidan went to Tao County, intending to buy some handy weapons from the underground black market, but unexpectedly, before arriving in Yehu Township, he was hunted down for several rounds for no reason, and lost half of his spirit stones. She hadn't had any water for more than a day, and she was extremely embarrassed. She didn't know where she was hurt, and it hurt everywhere anyway. This made the pampered young lady involuntarily wonder whether her rebellion was justified.
Returning to the familiar environment at this time, a thought popped up uncontrollably, Zhao Yudan thought: Is it really so unacceptable to marry into Xichuxiang's family? Sanyue's inner sect could never be more dangerous than the wild fox town where he saw a living ghost... In fact, thinking about it carefully, her righteous indignation was just because she was unwilling to be treated as the boudoir woman she always secretly despised.
But if she has no family background, no father and brother to pamper her, is she really different from those women? As soon as she left home, she was almost blown to death by the bloody storm outside.
"I won't hide it from you," Patriarch Zhao sighed again, "Yujiawan is indeed a good place, but it's too close to the border. A few days ago, we received a letter from the same clan in Nanshu, saying that our secret place is actually It has been infiltrated by Nanwan Luwu. Yesterday, I heard that the token with the inscription of my family appeared in Yehu Township... I have sent someone to look at it. Although the so-called 'inscription token' is fake, we have also touched it now. I don't know what the intention of those who made this rumor is, our current situation, alas, is really like walking on thin ice."
Zhao Xiedan had never seen his father so humble before, and his heart tightened.
The Yu family seemed to be able to share this feeling, nodding repeatedly in response, but their eyes flicked around in the beautiful secret place. Listening to Patriarch Zhao's bitterness, he said, "How many spirit stones do you have to burn in a day to support such a secret realm?"
Patriarch Zhao replied with a sad face: "Twelve taels of Bai Ling is enough."
The people from Yu's family heard this, and immediately discussed it face to face, saying "it's really not expensive", "it's cheap and stylish" and so on.
The leading member of the Yu family complimented: "In order to encourage our children to make progress, our family specially built a 'Little Spirit Mountain' with spiritual stones at home for them. There is immortal energy in the secret realm, no wonder none of those hozens have enlightened."
For a moment, Wei Chengxiang couldn't care less about seeing the unpredictable face of the eldest lady, and took a breath at the same time as Xi Ping: "One hundred thousand taels of Bai Ling!"
Even Patriarch Zhao's eyelids twitched, and he didn't know what to comment for a while.
At this moment, someone came to tell them, "The auspicious time is coming, and the young lady is ready."
Zhao Xidan recovered from his guilt for a short time, and after hearing this, he was a little confused, and said to himself: Didn't the Yu family help the emperor's grandson come to visit the Zhao family? Whether it's a good look or a job offer, what's the matter with her? And... what "good day and auspicious time" do you want
At this time, it is approaching noon, which is the time when the folks say "the most cloudy", and the sun is basking in the sun. How can it be an "auspicious time"
When she went out with doubts in her heart, Zhao and Yu's family took each other affectionately and walked to the ancestor worship platform in the secret realm.
A long distance away, Zhao Xiaodan's inspiration was touched, and he felt that the masters of the whole family seemed to be here. Zhao Xiaodan did not dare to approach rashly for fear of revealing his flaws, and attached all his inspiration to his eyes, carefully avoiding that Foundation Establishment Brother's spiritual sense, overlooking the ancestor worship platform.
Not long after, I saw several maids walking towards a masked woman.
People are always more sensitive to their own image, when Zhao Xiedan saw that "woman", he was startled.
She looked down at herself almost subconsciously, and for a moment she almost absurdly suspected that she was a fake... Isn't it a man who pretended to be her? How could he be so divine? She thought of the imposter she saw, who saw her through the water, as if not only did not have the fear of being exposed, but also had a lot to say to her. That look was rarely malicious after she left the Zhao family.
The Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Zhao family took out a full set of prayer and divination items, and inspected the "fake product".
Zhao Xidan's heart tensed at first, inexplicably, she was a little worried about the strange man who took her place, afraid that he would be found out by the elder brother.
Wei Chengxiang also followed her gaze, feeling a little uneasy suddenly in his heart, and asked Xi Ping, "Senior, the spirit print is not for fun, is this really a paper doll?"
At the same time, Xu Rucheng, who has changed his face with Lu Wu's mask and turned into a "maid" to support the eldest lady, also asked Xi Ping the same question: "Senior, I really can't see how she looks like a paper doll, please confirm again." Just in case... you let me watch that ghost print fall on a living person, I will never get through it in my life."
Xi Ping said to the two of them, "I told you, little half-immortal, what are you playing with?", but his heart suddenly jumped for no reason, and he couldn't help but plucked the piano on the altar of Zhao Xie's altar, which made him feel relieved after being startled.
It was a paper figurine, he made it himself, and he was accurate in breaking the magic bracelet and teleporting magic circle.
No matter whether it was the foundation building of the Zhao family, the accompanying monks of the Yu family, or the set of ancient fairy artifacts, none of them could see that there was anything wrong with the paper figurine. , put them out one by one for the Yu family to see.
The Yu family was very satisfied with this "goods", and they nodded in whispers.
Witnessing this situation, Zhao Yudan's mind "buzzed", and the weak self-blame and entanglement suddenly dissipated. She looked at her own senior brother in disbelief, and was overwhelmed by the unspeakable humiliation for a moment.
At this moment, there was a muffled sound on the ancestral altar, and the big clock erected in the southwest corner clearly hadn't reached the punctual noon, and had already spewed out steam to tell the time in advance.
The senior brother solemnly paid homage to the ancestors of heaven and earth, with a dignified and gloomy expression. Then he asked someone to blindfold himself, and took a long thorn about three feet long with both hands. The pole was full of inscriptions.
Zhao Xidan's pupils shrank suddenly: What is this for
The foundation-building cultivator of the Zhao family held the long thorn and stood motionless on the steam-filled ancestral altar. The atmosphere was so solemn that everyone present couldn't help but hold their breath.
When the big clock reached "noon", there was a "click", and then the bell resounded throughout the secret realm, and the foundation-building cultivator pierced the long thorn through the eyebrows of "Zhao Xidan" on the stage.
Once the thorn was submerged into the human skin, all the inscriptions on the pole were brightly lit, and the tip melted into the center of "Zhao Xidan"'s eyebrows as if blurred, without even touching a single strand of her hair.
From the eyes of ordinary people, "Zhao Xidan" didn't move at all, as if she was just sitting there, letting her family put a hat on her. All the monks had ears attached to inspiration, but they heard an extremely shrill woman's scream.
Wei Cheng's hair was terrified, his scalp was swollen, Xu Rucheng almost pounced on him, and several monks from the Zhao family around couldn't help but look away.
Zhao Haodan's heart went blank for a moment, only a passage she read in Yanhai Tower a long time ago was left: The spirit pattern should be printed at noon, and the tattoo weapon should be pierced into the sinner's altar. With the upper and lower tattoos, the spiritual consciousness is like being tortured by a cannon.
Those who suffer this punishment will never be detached.
It was not only the monks in the Zhao family's secret realm who heard the scream, but also Xi Ping.
Xi Ping was shocked, and the Tai Sui Qin almost fell off his lap.
Originally, he didn't regard the divine consciousness copied from the broken dharma bracelet as a living person, because the living person can change, but the replica is "stationary". He originally thought that the duplicated divine consciousness was similar to a special portrait, but it was only created by his brilliant "painter" and could fool a fool.
Until hearing this scream, Xi Ping suddenly realized that no matter what "she" is, no matter whether she was raised by her father or mother, or played the piano with paper, she can suffer as much as a living person.
No wonder Wei Chengxiang and Xu Rucheng are so uneasy, one... no matter what, if everyone feels that she is alive, then she might be alive!
He's an asshole, he shouldn't pinch a "person" out.
Both the paper figurine and the consciousness wrapped in the paper figurine came out of the broken dharma bracelet, and as the foundation-builder cultivator branded the paper figurine's aura, the noise of rusty iron objects rubbing against each other suddenly sounded in the broken dharma. , Straight into people's ears.
Immediately afterwards, the consciousness of a paper figurine emerged from the small pond in front of Xi Ping, and a pitch-black spike drew the first stroke on her face.
Without thinking, Xi Ping plunged his consciousness into the pond, and the Tai Sui Qin rang, just to interrupt the noise. With a thought in his mind, the sound of Tai Sui's strings was like rain, and a thin layer of shield was woven on the paper figurine's consciousness.
The spikes from the tattoo hit the shield, and Xi Ping felt as if he was hit in the chest by Teng Yunjiao, and his whole body went numb.
