Chapter 254 The assassination of the princess(1/2)
Dong Ming's brows furrowed more and more tightly.
As of now, this matter involves more and more people and things!
If we must roughly divide them, the first thing is the haunted nightmare of the Sifang Ancient Pagoda.
Then there is the unsolved case of Black Butterfly five years ago.
And now, the case of Queen Wang being hit by a magic trick.
In terms of various forces, the Tang royal family, the Tuqishi Khanate, and the Qiangshui tribe of Baipu are already involved.
At the same time, it also involves the ancient Sifang Pagoda during the period of Prince Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, the case of the deposed prince during the Kaiyuan period and the series of Black Butterfly cases.
What's more important is that within the Soul-Suppressing Department, the head of the department himself said that it was an unsolved case!
So... everyone actually knows that it is unreasonable for the former prince Li Ying to use the black butterfly head-lowering technique to harm the King of Shaanxi and the Jade King.
But even so, Concubine Zhao Life died in the same year, and the former prince Li Ying was sentenced to death.
Up to now, Queen Wang has been affected by the magic of lowering her head, and has been implicated in Po Meng from the ghost market.
It's really difficult to sort it all out...
For a moment, Dong Ming felt that his head was as big as a bucket.
suddenly:
"Ahhhhhh!"
A shrill scream came.
That voice... was the housekeeper of the Jade Prince's Mansion!
"No, something happened to the housekeeper!" Jade King Li Xiangsi's expression changed drastically.
The three of them rushed out of the room at the same time.
Li Xiangsi coughed repeatedly. Due to her heart disease, she couldn't run fast at all. She shouted in desperation:
"Quick! The butler should be in my bedroom, and the peony and lion are placed there!"
The paper groom nodded and immediately grabbed Dong Ming and rushed to the bedroom in the backyard.
Dong Ming raised his eyebrows.
He was now basically sure that this groom should have a close relationship with the Jade King Li Xiangsi, and then he thought about the attitude of the head of the Zhenhun Division towards him.
The paper groom is most likely Meng Xiao!
…
Soon, the paper groom and Dong Ming rushed to the backyard bedroom.
What caught his eye was the old housekeeper who fell to the ground and was rolling around in pain!
At this time, the old housekeeper pinched his throat in pain, as if he wanted to say something!
Such symptoms are actually quite similar to those of Queen Wang at the banquet!
Dong Ming looked up and saw that the peony lion was placed not far away.
From his eyes, a ball of black energy overflowed, like a flame!
"Sure enough, it's a black butterfly coming from three directions!" The paper bridegroom immediately said: "Dong Ming, please get out of the way first, I'll do it!"
With that said, the paper groom fell in front of the old housekeeper, and when he made a seal with his hands, countless snow-white paper money blew out from the paper sleeves!
The paper money covered the old housekeeper's body with a clatter.
Immediately afterwards, bursts of scriptures emerged from the paper money:
"The extreme Yin depicts bones, and the netherworld depicts lotus flowers! All Dharma Vajra Mountains drive away evil spirits and enjoy peace and tranquility!"
This spell looks like a Taoist spell, but looking at the method used by the Paper Groom, it seems a bit specious.
On the contrary...it has the same effect as the ghost method used by the soul-suppressing director!
"Gurgling..."
It's like something is drinking water.
Seeing this, Dong Ming covered his eyes with the power of Yaksha.
In an instant, his scarlet eyes looked at the paper money on the floor, and there were dozens of evil ghosts with ferocious faces sitting around it!
These evil spirits seem to be born from paper money scriptures!
At the same time, as the scriptures were recited, black energy began to flow out of the old housekeeper's seven orifices, as if he was forced out by the paper money! Those evil spirits lingering near the paper money put the black energy into their mouths one after another, and followed the instructions.
He grabbed his throat and swallowed it!
Seeing this, Dong Ming removed the pupil technique.
As the scriptures on the paper money began to squirm, the countless paper money began to turn black!
Every time it turns dark, the black energy exuding from the butler's body seems to be lessened.
At the same time, when the paper money turns completely black, it will disappear completely.
This goes on and on for a whole stick of incense:
"call……"
With a gust of wind, the paper money disappeared.
The housekeeper was breathing heavily. Although he looked pained and exhausted, he was no longer in fear of his life.
Dong Ming couldn't help but look at the paper bridegroom: "Can you actually defeat the black butterfly falling three ways?"
The paper groom shook his head: "I can't break it, but... the housekeeper just got hit."
"Compared with the black butterfly descending technique and the red butterfly descending technique, although the effect is more fierce and the attack speed is faster, it is not concealed."
"If you react quickly and absorb the evil energy of the Black Butterfly Subduing Technique, you will lose a little vitality at best."
"Compared with the red butterfly descending technique that parasitizes the body and sucks out the blood, it is easier."
"However, time is very tight. If I had just delayed a few more breaths, there would be nothing I could do."
at this time:
"Ahem...how is the butler doing?"
Li Xiangsi arrived at her bedroom with the help of her servants. Looking at the unconscious old housekeeper, her expression suddenly changed:
"housekeeper!"
Li Xiangsi was about to step forward, but was stopped by the paper groom:
"Your Highness, although the head-lowering spell on the butler has been lifted, the evil spirit still remains and it will take time to dissolve."
"You are weak, so it is best not to get close to him for the time being."
"Leave these things to the servants."
Immediately, the paper groom slipped in a few servants who were trembling with fear from outside the door:
"Okay, just take the housekeeper down and let him have a good rest."
Dong Ming couldn't help but look at the peony lion. It was exactly the same as the one in the Queen's palace!
"Paper Groom, why did the head-lowering technique in the Peony Lion suddenly occur?"
"Obviously where the queen is..."
The paper groom shook his head:
"This is also what I don't understand."
"The red butterfly descending technique is more sophisticated than the black butterfly descending technique."
"Moreover, Queen Wang is physically weak, and the red butterfly descending technique is enough to kill her. There is really no need to do more."
"In addition, in the past few days, many people have been affected by magic, since they were all caused by contact with the media."
"Then...it can be concluded that the opponent's skill is not enough to surrender through the air!"
"So, we can only use methods like poison to assist!"
"On this point...it doesn't fit in with the coir raincoat man's method!"
Dong Ming fell silent.
He understood what the paper groom meant.
The coir raincoat man's skills are comparable to those of Meng Po, and his attainments in the head-lowering technique are obviously not low.
If it is still necessary to use this method of media communication, the comparison of skills is not like the method of the coir raincoat man.
And...the housekeeper was hit by a head-dropping spell when he touched the Peony Lion.
Why did Princess Gaoyang and King Jade touch each other one after another, but there was no impact at all?
Even... even the head-dropping technique used by the king and queen in the palace is not the black butterfly-dropping technique among the peony and lions.
To be continued...
