Chapter 53: Snatching the Corpse
In the sky above the moon, the bright moonlight slowly cast down. The Li family's house was brightly lit, and there were servants coming and going. Because of Mr. Li, the Li family's house was crowded at this time, and there were more servants in a while.
"Master, I'm afraid I can't get in!" Yue'er followed me and whispered, her small eyes staring at the door of the Li family's mansion.
"It's okay, let's go over the wall and don't go to the main entrance!" I said, pulled her to the back hall of the Li family mansion, found a relatively low position, and I jumped up and pulled the hospital wall.
"Yue'er, wait, I'll pull you later." A gust of wind came from the ears of the material, and I felt a chill on my back.
"Master, come in quickly, there is no one inside!" Yue'er's voice rang inside. I quickly climbed up to the wall and looked at the yard. Yue'er was secretly staring around.
"Brush..." I jumped off the yard wall in one step, and then looked at Yue'er with curiosity.
"Master, why are you staring at me like this? Do you have bugs on your face?"
I glared at her, then pinched her little ear, "I honestly told you what secrets I didn't tell the master?"
"No!" She looked at me innocently and said in a sensible manner.
"No? Then why are you so good?"
"I have always been very powerful. From the beginning, I have been the master's only guard!" Yue'er looked at me with a puzzled look. I thought about it, but I didn't think about when Yue'er would be my only guard.
"Just think you are, let's go quickly, steal the body and run away!" Although I don't know if Yue'er is my only guard, I subconsciously thought that she wouldn't lie to me, maybe she forgot something before replacing this identity.
We walked along the dark place. Since we had never been to the Li family mansion and didn't know where to go, we had to look one by one. The Li family deserved to enjoy the blessing of the blessed land and the family was very rich. Originally, I was only for the little bit of pride I saw at the door. After I entered the Li family, I realized what the mountain god said, "I have suffered the blessings that I shouldn't have received, and I have suffered retribution!"
"Master, we can't continue to look for it like this. The Li family is so big, when will we find it?" Yue'er ran in front and said.
"There is nothing to do about this. We don't know where the body is parked?"
"I have a way, I don't know if it's OK?" Yue'er suddenly said.
"What's the solution?" I couldn't help asking, but Yue'er smiled badly and suddenly shouted at the vestry.
"Someone attacked Li's mansion at night, come quickly!"
Her voice immediately shocked the Li family. For a moment, many torches rushed towards us. Unfortunately, Yue'er and I had to jump onto the roof. Soon, the old housekeeper of the Li family rushed over with people, and we immediately rushed to the front yard with this opportunity.
In the spacious yard of the Li family's vestibule, Mr. Li's body was parked in the middle and supported by two wide benches. Mr. Li and a woman were burning money in front of the coffin. The moonlight became brighter and emitted a cold breath. Yue'er and I were lying on the roof.
"Master, there is no one in the backyard!"
The old housekeeper ran back with his people and said in front of Mr. Li.
"You are all smarter. Dandrup is kind-hearted. He said that his family will harm the world, and his personality will definitely come to steal corpses!" Old Li stood up and said, "I felt a little sad and said, "No wonder Li's mansion is so strict today. It turns out that Old Li guessed that I was coming."
"Master, what should I do? They are so guarding us, we have no way to start," Yue'er said worriedly behind my back.
"If it really doesn't work, we will use the Heavenly Thunder Talisman to directly strike it, saying that we can't let it come out of the coffin!"
"No, Master, have you forgotten? That thing was struck by lightning. I'm afraid the thunder talisman has no effect on him."
"Yes! Let's wait, maybe there will be a chance later." Yue'er and I lay there, and two pairs of eyes stared straight at me. I felt a chill on my back. It was indeed a bit cold when I was lying on the roof at night. I had no choice but to run to memorize the things in my mind.
"Master, there is something wrong!" Yue'er shouted, and I quickly opened my eyes and saw that the lights were still brightly lit below, but suddenly a fragrance came from the air! It was a bit like rouge.
"No, this is a scent!" Yue'er covered my mouth and nose, then took out an exquisite purse from her waist, took out a black pill from her purse, and then gave it to me. Below, Mr. Li and the others were still burning money paper quietly, but their figures shaking as they burned. The servants at the door fell down first, and then the person in the yard was the last one. Mr. Li fell down.
After everyone fell to the ground, a man wearing black clothes, carrying a wooden barrel in his hand, and a hat in his head slowly walked in from the door of the Li family's mansion. Yue'er and I looked at each other.
Staring at him, it was obvious that he was stunned by the Li family for the corpse in the coffin. He saw him walk to the edge of the coffin, then lift the barrel up and pour it into the coffin. The barrel was filled with a bucket of blood. After the blood in the barrel was poured down, there was no splattering. Instead, a blood column formed in the air. The head of the coffin moved open and all the blood flowed into the coffin.
"Master, what is he doing?"
"Feed the corpse, it seems that he has a big plan!" I frowned. I usually imagined feeding corpse, which means that Onmyoji uses blood to feed the corpse. Every time he feeds, he adds his own blood to the blood, so that once the corpse wakes up, he will be controlled by him!
Feeding corpses was popular in the late Qing Dynasty. At that time, many people were smuggling opium, and corpses were undoubtedly the most convenient thing, and they didn't need much cost and were easy to control.
But it is unknown when the origin of corpse feeding began.
I saw that after the Onmyoji below fed the body, the thunder coffin was closed once, and the bright moonlight suddenly emitted a halo, and I thought to myself that something was wrong.
"Yue'er, do it!" After saying that, he took out a fire talisman and pointed it at the Onmyoji below, but his reaction was very fast. Almost the moment I took action, he immediately turned around to block my fire talisman.
But I was more than one person. When he caught the fire talisman, Yue'er had already appeared in front of him. He kicked Onmyoji without hesitation and directly kicked Onmyoji on the steps on one side.
"Ahem,..."
"Who are you actually feeding blood corpses with blood?" I jumped off the roof and asked loudly.
"Haha, I didn't expect there was such a powerful Onmyoji in this city, but I was wrong!" He smiled gloomyly. His face only showed his eyes like wolf eyes.
"Do you know what the consequences will be if you feed the corpse in this way? As an Onmyoji, if you don't cultivate yourself and your character, you will benefit the countryside! You will actually endanger the world."
"The world? Are you talking about the world for me?" He said coldly. I could hear the resentment in his language and the hatred for this world!
"I benefit the countryside, but who will benefit me? I'll make sense of it and get out of here. I can save your life by seeing that among my fellow disciples!"
"Ha..." I sneered and looked at him and said lightly, "Do you think you still have a chance to let it come out now? I burned it today."
"I know you have more skills than me, and I can't beat you, but don't go, this guy on the ground will not allow you to move the body in half." He smiled confidently and immediately took out a flute and blew it. For a moment, the people who had just fallen into a coma showed signs of waking up one by one.
I said something bad to me and immediately shouted, "Yue'er, let's go quickly with the body!"
"I want to leave? Do I agree?" Onmyoji shouted coldly, and a piece of talisman paper came, and his body rushed towards Yue'er in an instant.
He must have practiced it, both speed and explosive power are quite impressive, but Yue'er's seemingly delicate body contained powerful power. Yue'er pinched him with his backhand, then pulled forward, and kicked Onmyoji hard in the chest. Onmyoji groaned, spurted out a mouthful of blood, and flew backwards.
But he was also prepared to come and typify a piece of talisman paper in the moment he flew backwards.
"Ghost control technique, come out!"
Suddenly, a general wearing armor and holding a big sword appeared out of nowhere, and the big sword in his hand slashed at Yue'er's face.
"Sky Thunder, Strike!" I threw out a Tianle Thunder Talisman, and then a lightning strike out of thin air, hitting the ghost's big sword, and immediately missed the big sword.
"Go and get the corpse quickly, I'll block it!" Mr. Li had woken up slowly, and we must take the corpse away before they woke up completely.
I threw out a heavenly general talisman and summoned a heavenly general to fight with the ghost general. Seeing that Yue'er was about to push the coffin open, a bright knife instantly stood on her jade neck.
"Two steps back!"
