The Blade-Wielding Legend

Chapter 535: The Mysterious Divine Statue


"A woman crying?"

Sha Lifei was initially stunned, then suddenly realized, and whispered, "It's something unclean?"

He had also awakened his Body Divine Power. Although not as profound, his five senses far exceeded those of ordinary people.

At this distance, if he couldn't hear it, there must be a problem.

"Mm."

Lv San nodded slightly, signaling everyone to retreat to the wall. He then took out a piece of dry Mugwort from his chest, pinching a spell, and whispered a few spells by his mouth, then gently blew.

Whoosh~

A gentle breeze blew, and the dry grass fluttered up and down.

As it approached the dead silent house, it suddenly twisted, quickly covered with white frost, and fell to the ground like an ice lump.

This was divining fortune and misfortune using Divination Grass.

Lv San was not originally skilled in this, but after learning the "Lan Zhi Scripture," he could communicate with flowers and plants and naturally learned this technique easily.

"Such strong resentment..."

Seeing this, Lv San frowned, turned his head to Wang Tianzuo, "What kind of person is he usually?"

Wang Tianzuo, understanding his meaning, shook his head quickly, "Brother Lu is an upright person, he would never harm people with sorcery. On ordinary days, when people ask for his help, he doesn't charge much. He lives a very frugal life."

"You know the face but not the heart..."

Sha Lifei sighed, not believing it.

"Squeak squeak!"

Before he finished his words, the old yellow weasel beside him became dissatisfied, hopping around, baring its fangs and waving its claws, making various gestures.

Seeing this, Lv San pondered, "It says Daoist Lu never harms people, and usually forbids them from approaching the village."

As he spoke, a flash of inspiration hit him, "Something's wrong, someone must have set a trap in the house, most likely the person who wanted to harm Daoist Lu!"

"What should we do?"

"Fight fire with fire!"

After a brief discussion, they immediately had an idea.

Lv San took a straw man from his chest, plucked a few strands of his own hair, wrapped them in yellow cloth and stuffed it into the straw man, then wrapped it with a Red Rope.

After finishing this, he approached the courtyard wall of the house again.

This old rural house had a mud wall only as high as a person. Lv San reached out, pushing himself up and flipping over in one movement.

He landed without a sound.

Just as he had seen before, the entire yard was pitch black, the gate locked to create the illusion that the owner was away for business.

Behind the gate, someone had drawn a large talisman with white chalk; it would certainly be stepped on if one carelessly pushed the door open.

Not only that, but the white chalk also emitted a foul corpse energy.

Lv San had heard Wang Daoxuan mention that this was called "yin chalk," made by burning the coffins where old yin people or Zombies slept.

In folk Evil Dao, this material was often used to cast spells.

Lv San ignored it, slightly moving his ears, listening carefully.

Soon, he turned his head to look toward the big tree in the yard.

The crying sound of a woman came from under the jujube tree.

Looking more closely, Lv San immediately discovered that a series of objects were hanging on the branches of the jujube tree, a rope woven from a woman's hair with a thick hemp rope stained with blood and full of yin energy.

The moon was dark and the wind was high, and there seemed to be a vague white figure under the jujube tree.

Indeed, someone was using exorcism spells to harm people...

Lv San's eyes turned cold upon seeing it.

He had roughly guessed the other party's methods.

That thick hemp rope was from a tragic-spirited woman who had hanged herself, with a vengeful ghost and Fierce Soul attached.

Ordinarily, such things should be sent away with a spell to calm the grievances, but someone had used Evil Skill to refine it, cultivating Fierce Ghosts for spells.

In the Mystical Sect, whether Buddhist or Taoist, allowing souls to rest in peace was the rule.

This method was pure Evil Dao.

Lv San did not approach but instead picked up the straw man, chanting a spell, and then tossed it out with a wave of his hand.

Swish!

The straw man flew out and directly hung onto the hemp rope.

Lv San could see with his own eyes that the surface of the straw man quickly became covered with a layer of white frost, like an ice lump falling to the ground.

He quickly moved forward, inserted several pieces of Mugwort around, and then whistled lightly towards the courtyard wall.

Sha Lifei and others quickly jumped in as well.

"First, find clues!"

Lv San whispered, "I'll watch here and if nothing is discovered, we'll immediately leave and set a trap."

"Okay!"

Without further ado, Sha Lifei and Wang Tianzuo rushed into the house.

As for Wu Ba, he scratched his head and stayed in the courtyard with Lv San.

Upon entering the house, Sha Lifei immediately lit a torch, glanced around, and cursed, "Cowardly thief."

The house was a mess.

Lu Laohai's house had very old furnishings, obviously items used for decades, crudely made, and no different from ordinary people's homes.

The colors were dark and had a thick layer of dust.

Everything was turned into chaos.

Seeing this, Sha Lifei had lost hope.

The intruder must have been a magician.

Even if there was something, it would have been taken by someone.

Wang Tianzuo had searched around and his expression was similarly unpleasant.

"Squeak squeak!"

Just as the two were about to leave, the old yellow weasel ran to a jujube wood cabinet, sniffed carefully, and squeaked loudly.

"Quick, Old Yellow found something!"

Sha Lifei hurriedly asked Lv San to translate.

Listening to the Upper Language of the old yellow weasel, Lv San opened his mouth, "This jujube wood cabinet, Old Yellow saw it back then, it's from a nearby mountain, originally growing in an old temple occupied by a nest of yin souls."

"Daoist Lu had them transcend the yin souls, then chopped down the jujube wood and instructed them not to approach."

After hearing this, Sha Lifei thought for a moment, "Since it was surpassed, but still forbidden to approach, maybe there's a clue."

"Let's catch the perpetrator first, see who's playing tricks, then check it out."

"Okay!"

Lv San didn't say more, pulled up the Red Rope, and tied the straw man's limbs with Mugwort, then followed the group as they jumped over the courtyard wall.

They left the village, quickly heading into the nearby mountains.

Lv San found a bamboo grove, buried the straw man within, and then hid nearby with Sha Lifei and others,
