The Buddha is actually me

Chapter 59: Zhong Kui's Imperial Edict
"Brother Jiu, I feel dizzy..."

Ali's body suddenly staggered, as if she was drunk.

Yue Ling picked her up, patted her back gently, and whispered: "Take a nap if you are tired. You probably haven't slept for a long time."

It can be seen that her posture is very stiff, and her tone is not gentle enough, and she seems awkward, as if she has never done such a thing as coaxing a little girl to sleep.

But her serious attitude still infected Ali. The little girl smiled and bumped her head against the armor on her chest, making a crackling sound.

"Sister, it's so hard here, it would be great if it could be as soft as mommy's..."

"Brother Jiu, don't lose Xiaofen..."

She gradually fell asleep. It was the first time she felt sleepy since becoming a ghost.

"What's going on, A-Li? Can't the Soul Dispersing Talisman be taken out?"

Zhang Jiuyang lowered his voice, but could not hide his worry and anxiety.

Yue Ling shook her head and said, "This kind of talisman written in black and white is a secret teaching of the Yin people. I just observed this talisman with my Dharma Eye and found that it will continuously absorb Ah Li's own Yin Qi, so she feels sleepy."

"If you take this talisman by force, it might harm Ah Li's soul, or even cause her to die."

Zhang Jiuyang clenched the ghost-slaying sword in his hand and lowered his eyes.

Yue Ling said with some guilt: "This is my fault. I didn't protect Ah Li well."

"General Yue, you should have discovered that Blind Lin's real purpose for coming here this time was not A-Li, but me."

Zhang Jiuyang slowly raised his eyes. Under the moonlight, his eyes suddenly became somewhat scary, like a dark ocean with undercurrents surging.

"Whether it's the Soul Dispersing Talisman or the pattern he just drew on the ground, their purpose is nothing more than one, which is to get me to Chenjia Village."

"General Yue, that pattern is very important to you, right?"

Yue Ling's eyes moved slightly.

After not thinking for long, she made her choice and said resolutely: "I will not take you to Chenjia Village as he wishes. You take good care of Ah Li. I will capture him and torture him to find out the method to remove the talisman and the things I want to know."

She handed Ah Li to Zhang Jiuyang and turned to leave, but she heard a voice.

"General Yue, I want to go."

She turned around and saw a handsome Taoist priest holding a sword in one hand and holding Ah Li in the other under the moonlight, his hair fluttering and his eyes clear and bright.

"I'm actually quite afraid of death, so I notified your Imperial Observatory as soon as I got the clue, thinking that even if the sky fell, there would be tall people to hold it up."

"As long as I stay away, nothing will happen."

He clenched the hilt of the sword and suddenly laughed. The smile was bright and sunny, but for some reason it made people feel inexplicably cold.

"But some people insisted on putting a knife to my neck and twisted my sister's head off in front of me and kicked it like a ball..."

The boy's smile became increasingly sinister, and he squeezed out a few words from between his teeth.

"I can't sleep if I don't kill him."

Since there is no way to escape, let's send him off.

Zhang Jiuyang really wanted to know, when he chopped off Blind Lin’s head and kicked it like a ball, would the other party cry out in pain?
That sound must be wonderful.

This was the first time since he traveled through time that he wanted to kill someone so badly, to the point where he couldn't sleep or eat well if he didn't kill him.

Yue Ling frowned slightly and asked, "Have you really decided?"

Zhang Jiuyang’s strength was not weak. She was even surprised by his mantis stalking a sparrow move just now. She didn’t expect that his swordsmanship could improve so much in just a few days.

In addition to his flying sword that can restrain ghosts, Xiao Gao said that he also has a spell that can kill evil spirits, which is quite powerful.

Overall, he is no less than Gaoren and Luo Ping.

However, Blind Lin's strength is still unclear, and it is also impossible to predict how many dangers are hidden in Chenjia Village. He is not a member of the Imperial Observatory, and even his peripheral identity has not been approved.

Why would I go through fire and water with them?
"one day."

Zhang Jiuyang suddenly said, "Wait one more day, and we'll go to Chenjia Village together."

He didn't say why, but his eyes were extremely serious.

Yue Ling looked at Ah Li in his arms, as if she saw herself holding her sister back then, and her heart was touched. At that time, she was just like Zhang Jiuyang, no matter who bullied her sister, she would retaliate fiercely.

Otherwise I can’t even sleep.

When she was twelve years old, she dared to pick up a spear and stab the son of the prime minister, and her name was known all over Kyoto.

Their eyes met, and she finally nodded.

"Tomorrow at noon, go to Chenjia Village."

……

The reason why Zhang Jiuyang had to wait one more day was because the picture of Zhong Kui chewing ghosts was about to be completely covered with colors.

During this period, with the rapid spread of "The Legend of Zhong Kui Catching Ghosts", the visualization picture in his mind received a large amount of incense every day, and the black and white colors were gradually replaced by colors.

When the color spread to his feet, he obtained Zhong Kui's ghost-killing curse, when it spread to his waist, he obtained the method of refining the ghost-slaying sword, and now the color is about to spread to his whole body.

He had a hunch that today, the Zhong Kui Chewing Ghost Picture might undergo a huge change!

I hope I can give Blind Lin a surprise then.

The night was getting darker and darker, and when the first rays of morning light rose in the sky, a large wave of incense came, completely dyeing the Zhong Kui in the visualization picture colorful.

Color spreads throughout the entire visualization picture.

In an instant, an extremely strong feeling of throbbing emerged, and the Zhong Kui who was visualizing the evil ghost in the picture actually moved. He put the ghost into his mouth, chewed it up and swallowed it. His eyes shone like torches, and his breath was like wind and thunder.

Zhang Jiuyang actually heard the sound of thunder, which was deafening.

Zhong Kui slowly turned sideways, with a leopard head, round eyes, an iron face, and curly beard. His red official robe fluttered in the wind. He exuded a dignified and upright aura, and was upright and incorruptible.

He nodded slightly to Zhang Jiuyang, and then a majestic consciousness descended and bestowed the most precious inheritance.

Ancient characters emerged in his mind, accompanied by the sound of wind and thunder, the roars of dragons and tigers. Hundreds of ghosts wailed and thousands of evil spirits howled.

"Zhongnan Jinshi, a general who guards the country, has a voice like thunder that shoots evil spirits into the mountains and valleys, and eyes like lightning that surround the palace. Together with Jingde Qin Gong, he is the lieutenant who commands demons, and together with Shentu and Yulei, he is the god who devours ghosts."

"He commanded three thousand ghost soldiers, and the evil spirits were frightened and invaded; he drove a million divine soldiers, and the monsters were chilled and pale..."

Zhang Jiuyang was shocked.

This is actually... Zhong Kui's precious edict!
……

In the courtyard, the sound of sharpening knives was heard again.

This time it was not Ali, but Yue Ling.

The female general was sitting by the pool, sharpening not her own Dragon Sparrow Sword, but two small pink kitchen knives, which formed a sharp contrast with her mighty and domineering image.

This is the gift she gave to Ali.

She asked someone to recast the sword overnight, and added the wooden heart of a hundred-year-old locust monster into it, which greatly increased the spirituality of the two swords and made it easier for ghosts to wield them.

Suddenly, she stopped sharpening the knife and turned to look towards Zhang Jiuyang's room.

Just now, she suddenly felt a palpitation.

She hadn't experienced this feeling for a long time, just like the fear she felt when she first went to the battlefield as a child and saw blood and flesh flying everywhere.

The feeling of being small and powerless when faced with a charge of thousands of cavalry and the earth shaking.

This feeling is fleeting.

Is it an illusion?

"Zhang Jiuyang..."

She slowly pronounced the name, took a deep look at the seemingly ordinary house, and turned around to continue sharpening the knife.

Tomorrow at noon, Chenjia Village.

It is appropriate to kill people.
