What was the reason for Ding Ruipu to go back to find the body of Old Qin's head?
We previously thought it was hatred.
After all, the news that Fei Fang has learned is that the Ding family has been wiped out.
In fact, nothing has happened to the Ding family; Old Qin completely failed.
There was no hatred among them. It was my later belief that Ding Ruipu had a psychological disorder, and as he failed to get what he wanted from Old Qin during his lifetime, he had to obtain him in his old age.
If a person's mind becomes disabled, it is definitely more terrifying than a normal person getting sick.
It's like what Feng Huai Gu said earlier, dying here is just a matter of becoming a companion to the people here.
Perhaps that's why he was smiling when he died.
Dare to think about one thing, is there any other reason for Ding Ruipu to find the Old Qin's head?
What else is there on Old Qin's head that she is so eager to obtain?
There are many people around, so I cannot say much else.
It just feels that my intuition tells me that I seem to have grasped something, but there is still a layer of film in front of my eyes, and I can't see clearly.
"Ding Ruipu, there must be secrets!"
"We must catch him, otherwise, we will really lose our hands!" I spoke again, decisive and unwavering.
The other Yin Yang Master seemed somewhat helpless at that time.
"The path of divination itself is a problem; the ghosts hidden in the shadows will come out to cause trouble at any time, and the problem is even bigger..." Wu Jinyuan's expression was forced.
"We need someone to explore the way." Lao Gong suddenly said.
"I'm afraid I can't." I shook my head directly.
I find Tao Mingyi and Xu Wang's actions unacceptable, but I can't do anything about it.
If this matter falls on me, I will definitely not use the lives of living people to test.
Wu Jinyuan's eyes narrowed fiercely, and suddenly said: "I'll do it!"
"I believe you, Lao Gongye!" he said decisively and firmly.
"You're really willing to sacrifice yourself, but I'm not quite sure if Lao Gongye can do it. I can't use you, and you won't get the agreement from the old gentleman. The old gentleman, you still have one fetal spirit pill left. Let's use it." Lao Gong smiled at me.
I took out the fetal spirit pill and handed it to Lao Gong.
What he intends to do, I still don't understand.
"If any ghostly thing wants to approach me or hinder me, old gentleman, you must take action, but don't hit me," Lao Gong said once again, reaching out his hands and feet. He took out the fetal spirit pill and threw it over to that Jiang Jiu's side.
The jade-like pill was stuffed into Jiang Jiu's mouth by Lao Gong.
Jiang Jiu was still bleeding from the seven orifices and convulsing, but at this moment, his body suddenly straightened, and his eyes widened drastically! It felt like a last flash of light!
"Actually... there is hope? The fetal spirit pill of the Yudi Dao's jade-like pill definitely has an extraordinary effect in restoring one's lifespan..." Wu Jinyuan muttered.
"It's too late to save him. Backlight returns for a while, and the effect of the medicine does not dissipate. It should not die. Make full use of people, young man, old Gongye will take possession of your body before you die, and then you can open the way for everyone else. It's not a bad deal!"
Lao Gong's words indicate that he wants to enter Jiang Jiu's body.
Suddenly, another ghostly figure emerged from the dark and rushed out to gain an advantage.
My actions were swift, and I immediately revealed the Four Regulations Mirror, pressing my fingers on the back of the mirror, and the talismans were instantly drawn onto it.
A sudden flash of copper light, and the ghostly figure appeared with a large amount of white smoke, which was broken by the Four Regulations Mirror!
I actually have more talisman paper on me, but the trip through the water has soaked many of them.
Although I have a waterproof bag, it can't hold much; only the most important things can be put in it. That's why I can only keep drawing talismans now.
Under my interference, Lao Gong took control of Jiang Jiu's body, and stood up suddenly.
The spot he stepped on caused the first group of statues to continue to emit black smoke, making Wu Jinyuan and others retreat quickly.
Lao Gong then changed his position and stepped on another spot, but the black smoke still persisted.
He raised his leg again and changed positions, taking four steps before the black smoke disappeared, and the two groups of statues remained motionless.
The face of Jiang Jiu was still bleeding, and the poison was deeper. However, there was a faint layer of white mist floating on his face, somewhat similar to the jade-like light floating on the fetal spirit pill above, temporarily protecting his breath.
"Remember this location!" Wu Jinyuan was overjoyed!
Lao Gong controlled Jiang Jiu and took a step forward.
The second group of statues opposite is Jiang Huang.
From the statues, suddenly emerged fine, black scales, each as thin as a cicada's wing but incredibly sharp!
Jiang Jiu's body became extremely pitiful, covered in wounds that could match even dismemberment.
"That's really ruthless. If it were a living person, they would have become a sieve." Lao Gong kept his jaw dropping.
He repeated the process of changing positions, as if replicating it.
Jiang Jiu's body was riddled with black scales, adding to his misery. Finally, Lao Gong stepped onto the correct spot, and the mechanism was not triggered again.
"Keep going! Keep going!" Despite Jiang Jiu's widespread injuries, Lao Gong did not slow down and walked towards the third group of statues.
I took a step forward and stepped on the spot where Lao Gong had previously tested the first group of statues.
Indeed, there was no smoke rising from the poison, and I took another step forward, stepping on the second location. It was safe as well.
However, Lao Gong triggered the mechanism of the third group of statues, and from the mouths of the statues on both sides, two iron rods as thick as thumbs were suddenly shot out, making a dull sound and directly piercing Jiang Jiu's body!
This time, Lao Gong was lucky, and he didn't have to change his position to avoid triggering the mechanism.
"Everyone, follow closely behind Daoist Luo! Do not give the ghosts in the dark any opportunity to take advantage of us!"
Wu Jinyuan shouted, and immediately several masters approached.
The others also took out some talismans and equipment.
Earlier, everyone was unprepared, but now everyone was on high alert.
I indeed meant what Wu Jinyuan suspected. By staying close to Lao Gong, I can respond faster if the ghosts in the dark try to cause mischief.
Why can Ding Ruipu pass through, I still can't figure it out.
Does she know the arrangement of the divine way's mechanisms?
Is it information she obtained from the tomb where she acquired the method to control ghosts?
There are a total of 18 groups of statues and 18 types of mechanisms in the divine way.
After finally making it through, Lao Gong emerged from Jiang Jiu's body.
Jiang Jiu collapsed to the ground, covered in small arrows, short knives, and even a broken arm. His waist was almost chopped off.
"It's a pity. The fetal spirit pill given by Daoist Sun is apparently fine, so it seems that the Jade Fetus Daoist Field may not be filled with ghosts." Lao Gong looked really regretful.
"It's fine, we've finally passed through the tricky checkpoint." I shook my head.
However, the other Yin-Yang Masters had expressions of sorrow, and Wu Jinyuan pursed his lips and whispered: "Chiang Jiu, you can rest assured that we will take care of your wife and children. They will not suffer."
"Do you mean to say you're letting him off easy, or not?" Lao Gong rolled his eyes at Wu Jinyuan.
"Ah?" Wu Jinyuan looked puzzled.
"Don't make fun of others, Lao Gong. I'm sitting by Jiang Jiu, and with one hand, I tear off a piece of fabric from his body, and with the other hand, I quickly draw a talisman and press it onto his head."
Even with wet cloth, the blood seal can still be used. Instantly, the talisman becomes a ball and absorbs Jiang Jiu's soul.
I threw the talisman to Wu Jinyuan and said, "We can't take the body away, but we should take good care of his soul and send him to be reborn."
Wu Jinyuan nodded in agreement.
However, Lao Gong moved forward.
At the end of the divine way is a circular archway, about three meters high and three meters wide. Surprisingly, there are three brightly colored murals on the door, depicting Jiang Huang, Corpse Maggot Corpse Armor, and Luan Hou!
