Chapter 7: Cutting off the water and intercepting the flow, breaking the law and counterattacking

Several maids and women were standing on the corridor in the backyard, their heads slightly bowed, their hands folded, waiting to be commanded.

Old Ding shouted: "Taoist Master Xu is here."

He ran into the bedroom without any hindrance. Lying on the bed was a young man who was moaning without energy. He was wearing satin clothes and trousers, exposing his bulging belly, and fell into a semi-conscious state.

Sitting next to the bed was a middle-aged woman who was wiping away tears, her eyes red and swollen.

There were two old men sitting by the window of the room, stroking their beards and frowning, discussing something in a low voice.

There was another handsome maid with the same sad face.

When the woman heard that the Taoist priest was here to exorcise evil spirits, she quickly stood up and saluted, and choked with sobs, she asked the Taoist priest to save her.

Xu Yuanchang waved his hand to indicate that there was no need to be polite, and stepped forward to observe. He gently touched the sleeping boy's swollen belly with his fingers. It was as hard as a stone. He then opened the boy's two eyelids and looked at them respectively.

The right eye was normal, but there was an obvious bloodshot streak in the left eye.

It's winding and winding, but it's disconnected in the middle.

"Cut off the water and intercept the flow!"

Xu Yuanchang secretly thought, recognizing that the young man had a very sinister evil spell that could kill him at any time, he turned around and ran out, leaving behind the surprised women, maids, and the doctor in the room.

He no longer had to inquire carefully about the patient's specific condition.

For example, did you go out yesterday, which servants followed you, did you argue or get angry with strangers, etc.

The evil disease has been found, and we can't afford to waste time. We called Lao Ding who was waiting in the corridor outside the door. We ran three times into the courtyard together before. Seeing that Lao Ding was very skilled, he whispered:
"Climb over the west courtyard wall! If you see someone lingering outside, catch him first. It's about the young master's life."

"okay!"

Lao Ding subconsciously held the handle of the knife with his left hand, agreed, and rushed to the courtyard wall like an arrow from the string.

He jumped up, stepped on the wall with both feet, raised his right hand, and turned over like a whirlwind to land on the other side of the courtyard wall. He was extremely agile.

Then I heard Old Ding's loud shout: "Thieves, please leave!"

"Clang", the sound of drawing a sword out of its sheath.

Xu Yuanchang rushed towards the courtyard wall, imitating Old Ding's posture, and stepped hard on the wall with his pedaling force, leaving a muddy and black footprint on the white powder wall. As he climbed up, he put his hand on the edge of the wall eaves.

Only then did I realize that the top of the two-foot-high courtyard wall was decorated with broken porcelain pieces and rusty spikes.

He nearly pricked his finger.

He used his strength to fly into the air and fluttered down toward the courtyard wall.

A group of people helped Mr. Wei and rushed to the moon gate. They heard Old Ding roaring from outside the courtyard wall. Seeing Taoist Xu following him over the wall to catch the thief, Mr. Wei understood what he was doing. He used his crutches and urged: "Hu Huyuan, Xie Huyuan, what are you doing standing still? Hurry over the wall and catch the thief. Don't let the traitor escape."

The two young nurses who followed him hurriedly looked around for a ladder.

They don't have Master Ding's ability to climb over the courtyard wall with bare hands without hurting their hands.

Xu Yuanchang didn't grasp his posture well when he landed, and almost fell to the ground. He put his hands forward to lose the strength, got up and chased into the fruit trees full of oranges on the opposite side of the path. The branches bounced, the wind whistled in his ears, and Old Ding knocked over one with his kick in the distance. figure.

"You're still running...why is it you?"

Old Ding looked at the acquaintance who turned over on the ground and screamed, and said in surprise.

Xu Yuanchang rushed nearby. He did not expect to catch the troublemaker so easily and shouted: "Where is the water flow you blocked? Tell me quickly!"

The middle-aged man on the ground was covered in dirt and his nose was bleeding. He raised his upper body, covered his nose and bit back, shouting: "Master Ding, you're so good, why did you kick me?"

But he did not answer the exorcism Taoist priest's questions, and avoided contact with his eyes.

Xu Yuanchang asked: "Who is he?"

Old Ding looked very ugly and said: "He is the eldest young master's... companion."

Xu Yuanchang was stunned for a moment, stared at the man and sneered, saying: "Collude with traitors, collude with outsiders, use evil methods to frame your young master, and it will cause death later, and even a few heads will be chopped off, who do you think can save you?" ? You are so stupid and hopeless that you were abandoned the moment you were caught, idiot!"

Time is of the essence and heart is the priority.

He saw that the other party was just an ordinary person, otherwise he would not have been easily caught by Lao Ding. The middle-aged man was a little panicked and didn't know how to make a decision.

Xu Yuanchang walked to the side and continued to threaten: "I will call more people to search for the cut off water. Sooner or later, I will find it. I will give you the opportunity to cherish it. You wait to be beheaded, and your wife, children and children will be exiled to the wild." The land grows and perishes on its own.”

He knew that the enchanted water flow was here, but he didn't have the ability to calculate its specific location.

The young master of the Wei family is dying, and he doesn't want to miss out because of wasting time. Moreover, by breaking the evil spell, he can kill the traitor in one fell swoop.

I didn't expect that this matter would involve the grudges in the mansion of a wealthy family. Now that I have done it, I must do it thoroughly.

He is not indecisive or procrastinating.

The middle-aged man's face turned pale and his eyes were filled with fear. The consequences of harming his wife and children completely defeated the wavering persistence in his heart. He tremblingly pointed in the direction of the courtyard wall: "At the corner of the wall..."

Following the orders of the eldest young master, he hid in the woods and raised the soil to cut off the trickle from time to time.

The major events that happened in the house today, no matter how stupid, loyal and stubborn he was, he could still guess that they were closely related to what he had done.

Xu Yuanchang rushed away and soon found the blocked trickling water. He broke off a branch and gently paddled it towards the wet mud pile, causing the blocked sewage to flow down, slowly deepening the scratches.

Hu and Xie, two nurses, climbed the ladder and climbed over the courtyard wall.

Old Ding pushed the captured man towards this side, and several people heard cheers coming from the other side of the courtyard wall.

"The young master peed."

"Thank God, God bless!"

"The young master has good fortune and good fortune. If he survives a disaster, he will be blessed later."

Xu Yuanchang felt relieved, continued to make more scratches, and waved to Old Ding. When Old Ding ran over, he whispered: "The thief must be not far from here in order to cast a spell to harm people. Within three or two miles, I will break it later." Xiefa, if you pay attention to the movement, you may be able to catch the real thief."

Lao Ding was convinced, nodded repeatedly, and whispered: "How about I ask again..."

Pointing at the captured man.

Xu Yuanchang didn't have any hope for the man with a dead look on his face. If he had known about it, he would have already made a move.

He pulled the dirt away completely, reached out and pulled out a thin wooden board from under the mud. After cleaning it, he found a strange little man painted on the board, with his name and birth date written on both sides, and complex runes.

Old Ding gritted his teeth and said, "It's the young master's name."

Under the remaining light of the sunset, a thin black air appeared on the rune graphics, like water mist floating in the air, which was gradually fading.

Xu Yuanchang understood that the caster wanted to interrupt the magic and break away from the implication, so he had to use the knife in Lao Ding's hand. He lifted the knife with his hand and neatly split the wet wooden board in half and separated it in the middle.

There was a faint scream of pain in the distance.

Lao Ding took the waist knife and took the lead in running after him, shouting: "Xiao Hu, Xiao Xie, watch Lao Guan."

Xu Yuanchang threw the wooden plank to the nurse who stayed behind. This was evidence of crime and he told him not to lose it. With his hands full of mud and water, he followed Lao Ding deep into the orchard.

A thief who harms others will eventually harm himself, so it’s not a good feeling to be backlashed by evil methods.

Old Ding chased him to the foot of a low mountain and blocked the thief who was hurriedly choosing his way through the unfamiliar terrain. He was a lean man with no flesh on his cheeks. He was dressed in black and had a cloth gauze wrapped around his waist.

Black blood flowed down from the left eye that the man covered. He leaned against the tree trunk, his face was twisted in pain, and he glared fiercely at the approaching Old Ding with his remaining single eye.

"Go back!"

Xu Yuanchang, who was more than ten feet behind, suddenly shouted.

The man threw his right hand, and a cloud of black sand flew out, with little green flames splashing in the air. It was very strange and weird.

Old Ding waved his sword and retreated violently. He knew that thieves who knew evil arts were difficult to deal with, so he was on guard in his heart. Hearing the sound of "bang bang bang" hitting the knife, he quickly let go and threw away the sword, and retreated several feet in the blink of an eye. Far.

The steel knife that fell to the ground suddenly burst into green flames.

Lao Ding's eyes were solemn and he continued to retreat, secretly thinking that he was lucky that he was almost affected just now.
