A strand of hair was burnt and the water in the cup seemed to have disappeared. Gou Liang's face was a little pale.
Bi Xia appeared from the Soul Nourishing Jade and looked at him worriedly. Gou Liang shook his head to indicate that he was fine. He Huo pinched his sister's philtrum to wake her up. Mrs. He was a strong mother. Although she was frightened, she forced herself to calm down and said, "Master Meng, what should we do to make the black cat forgive Xiao Jia's sins?"
"Auntie, please sit down first."
He asked Bi Xia to return to the Soul Nourishing Jade and then pointed at He Huo and the other two's glabella. He told them not to make a sound without his permission no matter what they saw later.
Then, Gou Liang took out a talisman drawing tool from his shoulder bag and drew three Soul Summoning Talismans on the spot. He chanted the incantation in his heart. The three talismans burned out and the sound of bells came from afar. The room suddenly became gloomy. He Huo and the other two felt their bodies stiffen as if they were frozen. They could not move or make a sound. Everything was pitch black in front of them. Only Gou Liang's glabella could see.
The two-tailed black cat stepped out of the void and looked at He Huo and the other two with disdain. Its golden eyes looked at Gou Liang sharply and it actually spoke in human language, "Human cultivator, since you are a Divine Master, you should know that karma is not good. Why did you stop me?"
Gou Liang saw the Soul Summoning Bell tied around the black cat's neck. It was obvious that it was about to succeed. He could not help but feel sorry for it and said, "It is not easy for you to cultivate. You have already cultivated for a hundred years and you are about to become an immortal. You should not have killed. Now that you have killed the main culprit, why do you still want to make things difficult for the innocent and destroy the merits of several lifetimes? "
The two-tailed black cat said, "This couple is heartless!"
"The wife killed my child without any guilt. The husband is even more immoral. He has killed many stray cats and dogs since he was young. His sins are grave. Because his ancestors were worshipers in the local temple, they enjoyed merits and did not have any negative karma. He has never suffered any bad karma. Now that killing has become his second nature, he does not care about the lives of animals. I just wanted him to apologize to my son, but I didn't expect him to kill me. "
"Such a vicious person is blessed by his parents. Even if he goes to the underworld, he won't have to suffer. He can even be reincarnated into a good family in his next life. What right does he have? "
"I want him to die a horrible death and never be reincarnated!"
Gou Liang understood its feelings, but since he had been entrusted with it, he had to do what he was asked to do. He advised, "Now that Gao Jiazhen is dead and his soul is scattered, he can't enter the reincarnation cycle. You have achieved your wish, so why don't you stop now?"
The twin-tailed black cat flicked its tail. Although it did not refute, its resistance was obvious.
Gou Liang persuaded again, "He Jia is different from her husband. She originally had the fate of having both good fortune and longevity, but now, not only did she become a widow, her son was also scared away by you. She would never be able to escape the nightmare of fear for the rest of her life. Her great reduction in fortune and longevity was also the price she had to pay for her mistake. On the other hand, if you kill again, you will also implicate yourself to fall into the cycle of reincarnation forever, unable to become a human. "
The twin-tailed black cat said, "My cultivation has been destroyed. Even if I reincarnate as a human, I will have to cultivate for ten lifetimes and start from scratch. Now, I no longer want to become an immortal. I would rather use my cultivation in this life to avenge my son. "
Gou Liang looked at He Jia, "You made a mistake, so you have to pay for it yourself."
He Jia had been listening to their conversation for a long time. Now that she had regained her mobility, she immediately knelt down and kowtowed. She apologized regretfully, "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. I shouldn't have been distracted while driving. It's my fault that I killed your child. It's also my fault that I didn't stop my husband. But … these have nothing to do with my child. Please let him go. If you want my life, I'll give it to you. Please don't kill him. "
"He's only five years old and doesn't know anything. He's very obedient and his personality is like his grandmother's. He likes small animals and is very kind. He doesn't even dare to hit a mosquito. He even took the initiative to donate his New Year's money to Project Hope. "
"Please, I'll do whatever you want me to do. Just don't take your anger out on my child. Please …"
He Jia kowtowed loudly. He Huo's wife was also crying when she heard this. She looked pleadingly at the two-tailed black cat.
The two-tailed black cat coldly questioned her, "You're also a mother. Why do you have no compassion for other people's children?"
He Jia cried bitterly, "I'm wrong, I'm wrong!"
The two-tailed black cat waved its tail, looking very irritated. Gou Liang could see that its heart was already wavering. He struck while the iron was hot and said, "Mrs. He has donated many merit monuments and formed good karma with animals. If she's willing to transfer her merit to your child, they can reincarnate well in their next life and avoid the suffering of animals. Compared to killing a few people, isn't this compensation better for your child? "
The two-tailed black cat was moved. It looked at Mrs. He, "You're willing?"
Mrs. He was also released. She knelt down and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't educate my daughter well. If I have anything that can help you, please take it. I'm really sorry … "
She hugged her daughter and cried softly.
The two-tailed black cat watched as rays of golden light flowed out of her body. This woman was sincerely apologizing, trying to make up for something.
Not long after, two young cat meows were heard. The two-tailed black cat meowed. Two small black kittens appeared at its feet. It licked the two children and spread its two tails to wrap them separately. Originally, the two-tailed black cat was not allowed to have children. However, it was about to become an Earth Immortal and the cemetery needed someone to guide it. That was why it prayed to the Underworld and had these two children.
It only hoped that they could inherit its legacy and that they could cultivate smoothly. It did not expect such an accident to happen.
Gou Liang squatted down and stroked the two kittens.
"Meow, meow ~"
The two kittens rubbed against his palm intimately.
Gou Liang smiled. He closed his fingers and gently grabbed, pulling out the black karmic energy that lingered around them and crushed it in his palm.
"Thank you."
The two-tailed black cat looked at Gou Liang gratefully.
Because of its stubbornness, its two children were also stained with karmic energy. Even if they were reincarnated, their fates would be rough. However, Gou Liang's simple effort had benefited them for three lifetimes. This was a great kindness. The two-tailed black cat's evil energy finally dissipated. The ghostly energy on He Jia and the other two disappeared. In the distance, the black cats that were surrounding the white car dispersed.
The Soul Transferring Bell on the two-tailed black cat's neck rang. It was time for it to leave.
The two-tailed black cat finally looked at Gou Liang. "I see that there is an evil spirit mark on your face. With my hundred years of cultivation, I can remove it for you. In this way, we don't owe each other — "
"No, I'm fine like this."
Gou Liang quickly refused.
The two-tailed black cat looked at him in confusion, but it did not forcefully remove the karma for him. A golden light flowed out of the black cat's soul and into Gou Liang's palm. The two-tailed black cat thanked him again.
It was also stubborn. It still gave its hundred years of merit to Gou Liang.
Gou Liang smiled and held the three cats up. Gentle spiritual energy enveloped them and sent them on their last journey. "The Taishang's edict, surpass your lonely soul. Escape from the sea of suffering and be reincarnated as a human! "
As his voice fell, the crisp sound of the Soul Transferring Bell gradually faded away until it could no longer be heard.
The cold room suddenly became bright again. Ming Ming, who was blocked outside the door, finally pushed the door open. Because of the force, he staggered two steps before he could steady himself. "He Huo, is the door broken? Eh, why are you and Auntie crying? What happened to Sister? "
*
The ten-day deadline came in the blink of an eye.
Before leaving, Gou Liang calmed himself down and solemnly made a divination for this trip.
The turtle shell cracked.
Gou Liang was speechless.
He looked at Bi Xia and smiled. "Is this a great calamity or a great calamity?"
Bi Xia raised her hand and touched the mark on his face. She comforted him. "Don't be afraid. Even if something happens to others, nothing will happen to you."
There were not many places with strong Yin energy that were suitable for the reconstruction of souls in the capital. They chose the best place to wait. Although they thought that the evil ghost would not settle for the second best, they still made arrangements in other places. In order to deal with this thousand-year-old evil ghost, the organization almost turned out in full force.
Zhang Dou also participated in this operation. He was in charge of logistics and security with a gun. When he saw Gou Liang, he did not dare to come forward.
A few days ago, he was so unlucky that he almost choked to death when drinking water. Later, he consulted a master and went to the temple to eat vegetarian meals for a few days. He also donated an entire year's salary. Only then did he get rid of his bad luck.
Gou Liang saw that the golden light on his body had returned to the strong state it was when they first met. He touched the soul nurturing jade with amusement.
Liu Yiyi saw him and waved for him to come over. "Xiao Meng is here. This is Master Chen and Tao priest Lin. They are here to help us."
Gou Liang greeted the monk and the Taoist priest. The cultivation of these two people was a little worse than Liu Yiyi and the other two, but they were still half-step Taoist masters. They were people with real ability. Yuan Qing's palm was holding a pocket-sized Sinan Diao. At this time, the Sinan Diao was rotating at high speed under the drive of spiritual power. Fang Yunshu was chanting sutras to calm her mind. She sat on the ground and fiddled with the bodhi seed in her hand.
The mark on Gou Liang's face began to heat up. He looked up at the stars and said, "It's almost time. Seniors, I have a formation here that may be able to trap him, but my cultivation is limited. I need your help to maximize the power of the formation. "
The few people looked at each other. Yuan Qing said, "Although Xiao Meng is young, he was able to suppress the malicious spirit for a while last time. I don't think he will speak without confidence." Then he looked at Gou Liang. "What do I need to do?"
Gou Liang set up the Eight Trigrams Formation. They had a total of six alchemists on this trip, including him. They still needed two more. He called Zhang Dou to help.
"Me?"
Zhang Dou was surprised.
He was willing to help if he could, but he didn't know anything. It would be terrible if he ruined the whole situation because of himself.
Gou Liang nodded. "The only Life Gate in this formation is the Qian position. When the time comes, I will place a magic weapon to guard it. The other seven positions are the Death Gates. Zhang Dou will have no problem guarding the Zhen position. His body is full of energy, and the Zhen position is the most dangerous. Even if the malicious spirit wants to break through this gate, it won't hurt him. "
Zhang Dou would guard the Zhen position, Yuan Qing would guard the Kan position, Liu Yiyi would guard the Gen position, Liu Yunshu would guard the Xun position, Tao priest Lin would guard the Li position, and Master Chen would guard the Dui position. Gou Liang himself would guard the weaker Kun position.
On the Qian position of the eye of the formation, Gou Liang brought out a magic weapon — a nine-layered pagoda purchased from the System. This was more valuable than the Soul Nurturing Jade. It was worth 4,444 points.
Liu Yiyi's eyesight was good. He exclaimed, "It's actually a nine-layered pagoda! Although I've heard about this kind of heaven-grade magic weapon from my sect, even my Martial Ancestor has never seen it. I didn't expect to be lucky enough to see a legendary magic weapon today. I can die without regrets. "
"Pei pei, Old Liu, we haven't even started working yet. What are you talking about?"
Fang Yunshu looked at him.
Liu Yiyi smiled apologetically. He looked at the nine-layered pagoda with infatuation.
Gou Liang said, "This is the Meng family's family heirloom. Because its power is too strong, our ancestors have instructed us not to use it rashly. It hasn't been seen in the world for many years. This time, if it weren't for dealing with the thousand-year-old malicious spirit, I wouldn't have dared to use it. "
The Meng family had a long history of learning and had produced several Heavenly Masters. It was reasonable for him to explain the origin of the nine-layered pagoda.
At this time, Yuan Qing's Si Nan Diao suddenly stopped and pointed to the northeast.
"He's here!"
Yuan Qing said solemnly.
The seven people immediately took their positions.
Fang Yunshu and Master Chen began to chant the Diamond Sutra. Their voices were not loud, but they were very penetrating. Above Fang Yunshu was a golden Diamond Bodhi Seed. Master Chen was holding a magic staff. One after another, the sound of the staff resonated between heaven and earth.
Liu Yiyi's magic item was a Sanqing Bell, known as "Throwing Fire for Ten Thousand Miles, Flowing Bell Eight Times, Vibrating the Magic Bell, Deities and Ghosts Xian Qin". Together with Daoist Lin, he chanted the Golden Light Divine Incantation to kill and eliminate evil. Its power was very impressive.
Yuan Qing's magic weapon was her Si Nan Diao. At this time, it was magnified several times. It united Yin and nourished Yang and purified the soul. In addition to defense, it could also support other people's attacks.
The mark on Gou Liang's face was suffused with a trace of black gas. Then, a cold voice approached.
"A 'Ning, how should I repay your kindness, hmm?"
The malicious spirit was no longer a mass of black gas. He had indeed reconstructed his body. At this time, his appearance was exactly the same as Bi Xia's. However, his lips were dark and his eyes were cold. Half of his face was branded with a curse tattoo left by karma. It made him look strange and evil.
Gou Liang curled his lips. "You and I are already married. Naturally, I should treat you with kindness."
Amidst the chanting, golden runes revolved around the malicious spirit. The unstable soul on the malicious spirit's body began to dissipate and was absorbed by the Ninefold Soul Tower. The malicious spirit did not seem to feel that the body that he had cultivated with a secret method was beginning to rot from the inside. He stepped on the golden spiritual power that was like a blade to him without changing his expression. He walked step by step to Gou Liang's side and squatted down in front of him.
He smiled and said, "A Ning, since you know that you are my person, why do you still stop me? If I die, you won't be able to live either. Isn't it better to be free with me? "
He raised his hand and wanted to touch the mark he had left on Gou Liang's face. A hand suddenly stretched out from Gou Liang's chest and grabbed his hand that was covered with karma tattoos!
Bi Xia rushed out of the Soul Nurturing Jade and kicked the malicious spirit away.
The malicious spirit keenly rolled back and pressed one hand on the ground to stabilize his body. He looked at Bi Xia fiercely.
Bi Xia stood in front of Gou Liang and frowned at the malicious spirit, "Don't touch him. It's dirty."
He was dressed in a white robe with wide sleeves. He looked like a gentleman. He and the malicious spirit were like twins, but they were also like clouds and mud.
The malicious spirit stood up and sneered, "So it's you who ruined my good deed. I'm dirty. What right do you have to say that? How many people have I killed? A hundred or a thousand? How can I compare to General Wuzhan? When he was alive, he built his success on the bones of thousands of people. After he died, he slaughtered ten cities. I don't know how many people he killed. I don't dare to show off in front of General Wuzhan. "
Bi Xia frowned, "I don't remember what you said."
The malicious spirit said, "Then congratulations. Your memories are sealed in my body, so you can act like a hypocrite and lecture me. Could it be that I was the only one who committed those crimes in the past, and they have nothing to do with you?"
Bi Xia pursed his lips and didn't say anything. Gou Liang said, "Bi Xia, it's almost time. Don't fall for his delaying tactic."
The malicious spirit sighed, "Ah Ning, you really make me sad."
Before he finished speaking, he took the initiative to attack. The black gas in his hand turned into a sword. Bi Xia also held a sword in his hand. The long sword formed by the black gas was exactly the same as the malicious spirit's. The two of them fought in a fierce battle. It was hard to tell who had the upper hand. However, the Yin Qi that erupted from the collision of three thousand years of evil spirits was very powerful. The two of them only exchanged a few moves, but Liu Yiyi and the others were already sweating. They gradually showed signs of being defeated.
If they let it go, their cultivation would be destroyed. In the worst case, they would die on the spot.
Gou Liang dragged them into the situation. Naturally, he couldn't let them die in vain. He stopped watching the battle between Bi Xia and the malicious spirit. He sat cross-legged and recited, "Tai Tai Tai Xing, constantly changing. Exorcise evil spirits, protect life and protect the body. Wisdom is clear, and the mind is peaceful … "
As his voice rang out, streaks of purplish-gold light flowed around Liu Yiyi and the others, causing their chaotic minds to clear up. The discomfort in their bodies lessened, and they focused on casting their techniques to help Gou Liang.
Liu Yiyi and the others attacked Bi Xia and the malicious spirit indiscriminately. However, Bi Xia had been in the Soul Nurturing Jade for several months. Her aura could completely deceive the aura of righteousness and was not affected by it.
In this way, the malicious spirit was at a disadvantage.
He, who was originally evenly matched with Bi Xia, gradually showed signs of defeat under the harsh recitation and the attack of the golden light. He wanted to attack the others fiercely, but he was blocked by Bi Xia. The malicious spirit's eyes were instantly dyed black in anger. He exploded with an even more violent murderous aura. He attacked Gou Liang's weakest position without any reason.
"Ah Ning!"
Bi Xia could not stop him for a moment. She ran toward Gou Liang, wanting to protect him with her body.
However, the malicious spirit had already approached Gou Liang. He grabbed Gou Liang's neck and was about to exert force …
Gou Liang opened his eyes and suddenly smiled at him. "Husband, are you going to kill me?"
The black aura in the malicious spirit's eyes dissipated.
He subconsciously retracted his hand when his rationality returned. In this moment of hesitation, Bi Xia's palm hit the top of his head. He did not show any mercy. The body refined by the malicious spirit was burned to ashes in his ghost aura. Losing the body, the soul immediately scattered. Gou Liang took the opportunity to cast the Ninefold Soul Tower and said sternly, "Ninefold Deity, listen to my command! Get rid of the false and retain the true, return the soul to the spirit, as ordered by the law! "
The soul that was absorbed by the malicious spirit screamed and was sucked into the first level of the Ninefold Pagoda. Bi Xia's spirit soul and non-poisonous soul were sucked into the ninth level of the Soul Tower.
Gou Liang looked up at the sky. The stars were about to merge. The best time to reconstruct the soul was coming!
"Bi Xia, quick!"
Bi Xia rushed into the Ninefold Pagoda and was on the ninth level with the malicious spirit. Tonight was also a good time for him to retrieve the soul.
The Ninefold Pagoda floated in the air and moved in reverse. Gou Liang cast a spell and said, "Today, I worship the Ninefold Pagoda. May I ask the stars to lend me a hand and merge the souls.
Imperial! "The two stars in the sky overlapped. At the same time, a beam of starlight descended and covered the Ninefold Pagoda. The Ninefold Pagoda emitted a mottled brilliance and kept absorbing the power of the stars. However, Gou Liang did not stop there. Even Bi Xia did not expect Gou Liang to cast a spell to clear his karma at such a favorable time!
He heard Kou Gou Liang say, "Linlang vibrates, ten directions purges. The rivers and seas are silent, the mountains are smoky. Get rid of my filthy soul, get rid of my turbid soul. Clear my karma, retain my true nature! "
The stars merged for a short while, brushed past each other and separated again. The power of the stars that poured into the pagoda turned into endless starlight and scattered. The Ninefold Soul Tower fell to the ground. Gou Liang, who had defied the heavens, spat out a mouthful of blood and his face turned pale.
The karma on his body was about to devour his merit. At the critical moment, the malicious spirit mark on Gou Liang's face burst out with icy-blue ghost fire and covered his entire body. It swallowed the fire of karma that landed on his body.
The last trace of the Ninefold Pagoda's luster dissipated. The Eight Trigrams Formation was broken. Only then could Liu Yiyi and the rest regain their vision.
"Xiao Meng, how are you?"
Liu Yiyi and the rest also suffered serious injuries, but they were not as serious as Gou Liang's.
Gou Liang shook his head at them and wiped the blood from his mouth. He picked up the Ninefold Pagoda and stood up. "The malicious spirit has been subdued. There's no time to lose. I'll bring him back to suppress him."
"Do you need our help?"
"No, just put him back in the Qizhang Pavilion."
Gou Liang could not wait to return to the Qizhang Pavilion and sealed the third room on the second floor. He immediately took out the Ninefold Pagoda and opened the door of the Ninefold Pagoda to release Bi Xia.
"Bi Xia, how do you feel?"
Bi Xia, who was dressed in white, turned her head. Gou Liang's smiling face suddenly froze.
Bi Xia stretched out her long hand and pinched his chin. She stroked his lips and smiled evilly, "Ah Ning, are you disappointed to see that it's me?"
