Chapter 781 Guarding the Yin-Yang Circle
The wind is picking up.
It makes people feel the chill of winter.
Zhou Shiyue held Lu Zhaoling's hand.
On the one hand, he wanted to let her gain some merit from him to make up for her losses, and on the other hand, he wanted to give her some comfort.
He could see that Lu Yiyi was very angry.
"Okay, I will definitely find out who he is and hand him over to you when the time comes."
"Can you really let me handle it first?"
Lu Zhaoling thought he was teasing her.
If this matter is truly investigated thoroughly, the main culprit must be escorted back to the capital to await the emperor's decision.
How could she possibly interfere in military cases?
"If I say yes, then yes." Zhou Shiyue was serious. "But you have to promise not to get angry now, or you'll get upset."
Lu Zhaoling took a deep breath and calmed herself down.
"Have someone prepare the things I want and send them over later. I'll be waiting here."
She said a lot of things.
"You can ask the guards to look for it at Lu's shop, and tell Shopkeeper Lu that this is what I want, and ask him to help prepare it."
"it is good."
Zhou Shiyue wrote down everything she said and went to find someone to do it.
Lu Zhaoling thought about it, took out a dagger, went to a nearby branch to chop it up, sharpened one end, returned to this place and started drawing on the ground.
Zhou Shiyue's priceless dagger is now used quite skillfully by her.
Although he didn't give it to her as a gift, but just lent it to her, she didn't return it anyway.
She first drew a big circle.
This circle almost surrounds the place where the ashes are.
Then she took another stack of talismans and sprinkled a little in the scratch of the circle every time she burned one.
Zhou Shiyue came back after instructing the guards. Seeing her busying around alone, he spoke up, "Can't we ask Grandma Sheng to come out and help at this time? She's been trapped in the small building for decades and is already very bored. You have to give her a chance to come out and move around."
Otherwise, such old bones would easily become loose.
"What are you thinking? You actually asked a ghost to help you... Huh?" Lu Zhaoling was halfway through his words when he thought of something and said, "It seems that it is not impossible."
There is one thing that Grandma Sheng can indeed help with!
"The sun isn't out yet and the sky is gloomy. It's okay for her to come out." Zhou Shiyue said.
"Makes sense."
Lu Zhaoling immediately opened the bracelet and brought out Madam Sheng San.
"I'm meditating... ouch my waist!"
When Mrs. Sheng San came out, her posture was a little strange, with her legs still crossed. When she saw that she was outside, she quickly put her legs down and stood still.
Lu Zhaoling helped her up.
"Sorry, it happened so suddenly..."
"Master, no matter how urgent the matter is, you can always call me in advance!"
Madam Sheng San said as she quickly tidied her hair. Her hair must not be messy and her elegance must not be lost.
"I'll remember it next time." Lu Zhaoling said.
She thought that once she unsealed the bracelet, Mrs. Sheng would notice it and would definitely be prepared. However, she didn't expect that Mrs. Sheng was actually concentrating on practicing.
Are you in such a race against time?
"It's broad daylight," Madam Sheng San looked up at the sky, shrank her neck, and asked in a muttered voice, "Why did you call me out? Aren't you afraid that I will feel uncomfortable..."
Lu Zhaoling looked at her.
"Eh? It seems like your cultivation has improved a lot. Don't shrink your neck, raise your head and stand up straight. Why do I feel like you are not afraid of the daytime at all?"
Madam Sheng San was still a little hesitant, "Really?"
"real."
Madam Sheng San stood up half-believingly, and even stretched out her arms, and stood in a circle on the spot. She raised her head and felt the light from the sky.
Although the sky was gloomy, there was still some light in the sky. If it were an ordinary ghost, it would still have to hold an umbrella and stand under the shade of a tree.
Even if they can bear it, they will inevitably react like Madam Sheng San just now, that is, they will still feel that the light is dazzling, which makes the ghosts feel pressured and dare not raise their heads or stand up straight.
Now she listened to Lu Zhaoling's words, raised her head to bask in the sunlight, stood up straight, and really didn't feel any discomfort.
She even waited for a moment longer, still calm.
Madam Sheng San looked at her in surprise.
"Eh? Master, you're right! I really don't feel any discomfort!"
This shouldn't be the case. It's still afternoon now. She wasn't allowed to do that during this time period before.
"Really? That's why I said that your cultivation has really improved." Lu Zhaoling looked at her again. She could see that Madam Sheng San's cultivation had improved.
"Yes, Master, you didn't lie to me!"
Madam Sheng San was extremely happy.
"It will be much safer for me to go to Nanshao this way! Master, if I follow you for another half a month, will my cultivation be more stable?"
Without waiting for Lu Zhaoling to answer, she quickly made up her mind.
"I must stay with you for another half a month! Anyway, I have been separated from Duan Lang for decades. If I want to see him again, I won't miss another half a month!"
She needs to practice harder so that when she goes to Nanshao, if she encounters the enemy who sealed her up, she will have the ability to take revenge.
Don't travel thousands of miles to get there, or you'll be scared to death by being beaten as soon as you meet them.
That would be such a disgrace to the master.
"Master, I will practice harder so that I won't bring disgrace upon your reputation. After all, I came under your command..."
"Wait a minute," Lu Zhaoling interrupted her quickly, thinking something was wrong. "How did you come from under my command? It's as if I accepted you as my apprentice."
Are they from the Xuanmen sect, collecting ghosts?
"I said it wrong. I should have said it came out of your wrist."
Madam Sheng San looked at her bracelet to express her meaning.
It came out from the bracelet on Lu Zhaoling’s wrist, right?
Lu Zhaoling didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Okay, okay, let's put this matter aside for now. Now help me guard the Yin-Yang line." Lu Zhaoling pointed at the circle.
Madam Sheng San looked at the circle on the ground, feeling a little confused.
"What is this? What is the yin-yang line?"
She doesn't understand.
Lu Zhaoling then remembered that although she was an old ghost, she was trapped in the small building before and had no chance to go out and deal with these things.
"The circle I'm drawing now will temporarily separate the Yin and Yang spaces when the formation is activated. The circle is Yin."
Lu Zhaoling motioned to Zhou Shiyue to listen as well.
"Outside the circle is naturally the Yang in reality. The sudden appearance of such a Yin-Yang circle may attract some wandering ghosts with cultivation in the Netherworld to emerge from the circle. If they try to break through the Yin-Yang circle and leave the Yang world, you will help me beat them back into the circle."
Lu Zhaoling paused and explained, "Because the ghost gate is usually closed, ghosts in the netherworld have no chance to come up. Especially during the day."
"There are also some wild ghosts who haven't had time to go to the netherworld, and they may also try to break into the circle from outside."
