Passed Away Peacefully
Chapter 275 Died peacefully
Qin Mu immediately sat up and looked out the window. Bashan Jijiu's snoring was deafening. A cold wind blew into the room, but he was still not awake.
There was a strange chanting sound coming from outside the window, and the tone was not clear. Qin Mu made a prompt decision and immediately sealed his soul with the Creation Demon Art. Then he mobilized his vitality, and the Shaobao sword hanging on the head of the bed was unsheathed with a clang, and the silver sword light illuminated the room.
There was a white shadow floating outside the window, suddenly coming and going, the young guard's sword rang and vibrated, sword lights shot out like lightning, and suddenly several heads fell to the ground outside the window.
It sounds very strange that witchcraft harms people, but it is only targeting the soul or the body.
Although Qin Mu is not very old, he still understands the principle here. As for the physical body, he uses a secret method to enter the room and kill the opponent.
There are even more bizarre methods targeting souls, such as voodoo, which is to poison the enemy's soul. This poison is colorless, odorless, invisible and traceless, making it difficult to guard against.
For example, you can make a straw man to worship the soul, write the other person's name and birth date on it, and worship for ten days in a row. Every day, you will worship away one soul. After seven days, you will worship away seven souls, and then you can worship three souls.
There is also the skill of Yan Sheng, which uses the damage to the soul to damage the body. Using a needle or a sharp blade, you can damage the opponent's soul, and use the connection between the soul and the body. If you damage the soul, you will damage the body. For example, if you prick the hands and feet of the soul, the enemy's physical body will also have piercing marks, and prick the center of the eyebrows to confuse the mind, and so on.
It is indeed unbelievable that one can kill someone just by knowing their name, but these two methods should be the only ones possible.
Qin Mu sealed his own soul and hung the Shao Bao sword on the head of his bed to guard against these two methods.
Suddenly, a strange laugh was heard. Qin Mu looked hurriedly and saw many strange little people climbing in from the window. They jumped to the ground one by one, holding knives, axes and steel forks, riding ponies, and arranged in formation, like an army of hundreds of people.
This army of little men came in a bustling crowd and stood on the chest of Bashan Jijiu, who was still asleep and snoring like thunder.
The leading little man was holding a spear, riding a horse, standing on the nose of Bashan Jijiu, pointing the spear at Qin Mu who was already sitting up on the bed, with excitement flashing in his eyes and an incomprehensible shout from his mouth. The other little men immediately rushed towards Qin Mu like a tide!
These little guys were extremely excited, making all kinds of meaningless calls, waving swords and steel forks, and charging aggressively. Although there were hundreds of them, Qin Mu felt that he could crush them with just two or three kicks.
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Was this the reason why the butcher was so wary and didn't dare to use his real name?
Qin Mu drew his sword and a sword light burst out. He was about to wipe out these villains. At this moment, he suddenly heard someone calling his name.
The sound came from the cold wind, and it was stretched out, as if it was very far away from him. Qin Mu said nothing, but the sound was approaching rapidly.
When someone calls your name, although you don't answer, you will involuntarily feel it in your heart. This sound should be sensing his location based on this principle!
The sword in Qin Mu's hand was about to kill all the little people in the army, but suddenly he felt a chill invading his eyebrows. Just as he was about to reach out and draw the sword, his soul froze.
His soul froze, his body froze as well, and the sword light went out.
The little people were overjoyed and climbed onto his body one by one, drilling into his body through his mouth, ears and nostrils.
The next moment, Qin Mu "saw" these little men carrying "him" and running. What they were carrying was not his physical body, but they had penetrated into his body and were carrying his soul!
These little people actually ran into his body, tied up his soul tightly, held it above his head, muttered something in their mouths, and then ran away.
Qin Mu felt that he could not move. The scenery in front of him changed rapidly, and then suddenly it went dark. All the light around him disappeared, leaving only darkness.
In the darkness, he saw a light beneath him. It was an altar and he was lying on it.
The little men put him down and looked up at the sky one by one. The leading little man muttered a few words to the darkness. Suddenly, the altar rose up. Looking around, he saw huge faces, like puppet faces, blocking the four sides. These puppet-like faces were extremely large, with expressions that seemed to be neither smiling nor crying.
Then the altar shook again and rose again. A huge hand lifted up the four puppets and the altar. Qin Mu immediately saw a blazing light in the darkness. It was a huge one-eyed man that appeared behind the four puppets. The eye alone was larger than the faces of these puppets.
Then, huge single eyes lit up the darkness and floated in the sky, which was extremely strange.
"The method of warding off evil?"
Qin Mu was slightly shocked when he saw this scene. Pangong Co should have used the method of Yan Sheng, using these little guys to invade his body and trap his soul sealed in the body on such an altar!
This method is very strange. Once the voice is heard, it will come even if you don't agree, and turn into an altar in the body. Even if the soul is sealed in the body, it cannot be prevented!
However, his soul should still be in his body. As long as it is in his body, Qin Mu has hope of turning the tables.
"No matter what kind of witchcraft you use, you need to rely on your own magic power. In my body, your magic power cannot defeat me, so don't even think about killing me!"
Qin Mu stood up and shouted, "Sword!"
Suddenly, a sword ball whizzed in from the darkness and hovered in front of him with a swish. This sword ball was exactly the one that the mute gave him when he returned to the village for the New Year. Qin Mu once used this sword ball to guide the remnants of the divine power in the body of the national teacher, so that the sword ball was worn away by the remnants of the divine power and became much smaller.
Qin Mu held the sword pill in his hand, and the sword energy in the sword pill burst out, sweeping the little people in all directions to the ground.
Those little people were gutted by him, but they were still alive. Their limbs crawled around, pieced together again, and continued to kill Qin Mu. The puppet faces around the altar showed strange smiles, raised their arms stiffly, and smashed towards Qin Mu in the altar, bang bang bang, smashing and splashing fire.
Qin Mu urged his sword to fight against these strange puppets, but he felt that these puppets were so powerful that every blow was almost unbearable for him.
Some of those little men were hit by the puppets and were smashed into pieces of paper, but the next moment they swelled up like inflated ones and continued to wave their swords to kill Qin Mu.
At this moment, the strange eyes in the darkness were burning, and blazing flames shot out from all directions.
Qin Mu gritted his teeth and resisted, but was almost beaten to death. These little people, puppets and strange eyes seemed to be able to come back to life. They were endless and could not be killed or eradicated. They kept attacking him and were never tired.
Qin Mu was exhausted to the point of despair, and couldn't help but get angry: "Is Senior Brother Bashan still sleeping?"
Before he knew it, there was a sudden sound of a rooster crowing, and then he faintly heard the night watchman knocking the watch, which was the sound of the fifth watch.
Then, Qin Mu heard the sound of Bashan Jiji yawning, which seemed to come from a faraway place. "I have been waiting all night, but Bangongcuo has not come in person. I am disappointed. This kid is very cautious. He did not perform a ritual to kill Junior Brother Qin himself, but let another great witch do it."
Qin Mu was slightly startled: "Brother Bashan knows that I'm trapped?"
"It's a pity that we only caught a great wizard at the Seven-Star level."
Qin Mu heard the sound of Bashan Jijiu drawing his sword, and the sword came out of its sheath.
"A golden sword inlaid with white jade, shines through the window at night. A man who has not achieved anything at the age of fifty, holds the sword and looks out over the world!"
Amid the singing, suddenly a ray of bright light cut through the darkness, coming from the sky, and fell like a knife, hitting the altar fiercely. Suddenly, the heaven and earth roared, shook, collapsed, and disintegrated!
The knife seemed to cut two lines, which slowly separated to the left and right. Those were Qin Mu's eyes, which were slowly opening. But strangely, he felt that his eyelids were opening to the left and right when he opened his eyes.
"This is the magic spell of the Loulan Golden Palace. I just helped you to solve it. This magic spell turned half of your eyeballs upside down, so the things you see are placed left and right."
Bashan Jijiu seemed to be standing on the wall and appeared in front of Qin Mu, saying: "First mobilize your eye muscles and slowly move your eyeballs over."
Qin Mu followed his instructions and slowly rolled his eyes. After a while, his eyes returned to normal. He quickly said, "Brother, I've been hit!"
Bashan Jiji nodded, pointed in front of him, and said, "This is the thing that got you hit."
Qin Mu looked down and was slightly startled, he saw that the altar that trapped him was not a real altar, but a silver plate. Surrounding the plate were four palm-sized puppets. The little people who had brought him here were soybeans, and the horses under them were bean sprouts.
The single eye floating in the air is the eye of a giant spider, a strange eye that grows side by side, and there is also a weasel under the plate.
Both the spider and the weasel were cut in half with a single blow and died violently.
"I thought it would be Pangong Tso who made the move, but I never expected that the one who made the move was a great wizard at the Seven Star level."
Bashan Jiji shook his head and said, "Bangongcuo didn't take action, but let the great witch of the Seven Star Realm take action. I guess he was worried that I was by your side. He is really cautious."
Qin Mu stood up and looked out the window, only to see scarecrows covered with white cloth, whose heads he had chopped off with his sword.
Qin Mu asked, "Brother, what happened to that great wizard at the Seven Star Realm?"
"Dead."
Bashan Jiji said: "He was performing a magic trick in your dream, using the magic of warding off evil to harm you. I broke his magic with this sword, and the sword's will followed his magic into his dream, chopping him to death in his dream. He passed away peacefully."
Qin Mu was skeptical and asked, "Can swordsmanship be practiced to this level?"
Bashan Jiji said with a smile: "Teacher Tiandao's swordsmanship is legendary. He can break through the void, but I can't."
By the morning, there was a lot of discussion in the Imperial Academy. Another envoy from the Mandi Kingdom had died. It was said that he died suddenly at five o'clock in the morning, with blood gushing out of all seven orifices. His death was horrible. He even screamed three times before his death.
Qin Mu complained in his heart: "Didn't Senior Brother Bashan say that he passed away peacefully?"
At noon, a sorcerer came forward and bowed, saying, "Prince invites Master Qin to the banquet."
