Chapter 153 No physical performance
The mahogany table was set up, with many magical instruments and talismans placed on it.
As usual, Zhao Tianshi first sprinkled water to purify the place, then lit incense and asked the ancestors for help.
When the incense burned to a certain height, Tianshi Zhao's expression suddenly changed. He took the demon-killing jade tablet in his hand and began to chant the demon-killing spell: "Tianyuan Taiyi, Jingsi Zhubing, guard the world..."
As Master Zhao chanted his spell word by word, the jade token in his hand suddenly trembled violently, accompanied by the sound of metal colliding.
"hiss."
"Master Zhao is fighting that monster!"
The onlookers around subconsciously took a few steps back, with fear and excitement in their eyes.
"This guy, he has a set of skills."
Jiang Jiang stood in the crowd, watching Master Zhao's performance with great interest.
Anyone who can make a living in the capital must have some skills, but... where are the monsters and ghosts in this world?
There is none in Mantanghong.
"You bold monster! You still dare to resist!"
At this time, Zhao Tianshi suddenly shouted loudly and threw out four talismans from his arms. As the talismans reached mid-air, they immediately caught fire, scaring the people around them and making them step back.
This performance of burning talismans is really timeless.
Jiang Jiang secretly raised her sleeves in the crowd. Today... she also prepared a similar performance and wanted to join in the fun.
"A fox demon who harms people, today I will enforce justice on behalf of Heaven and take you in!"
After Master Zhao finished performing the spell that caused the talisman to self-ignite, he saw that the people around him had already gotten into their own rhythm. He smiled secretly, and when he raised his hand again, the two little Taoist children behind him had already thrown the specially treated peach wood sword to him.
Master Zhao caught the peach wood sword steadily and made a sword flower in the air handsomely.
"Die, you beast!"
Before he finished speaking, the peach wood sword in Master Zhao's hand had already thrust out towards the door of Mantanghong. The thrust was accompanied by a whistling sound. The door of Mantanghong was originally slightly open, but driven by the strong wind, the door suddenly opened.
At this moment, Master Zhao Tianshi's peach wood sword suddenly began to tremble violently, as if it had pierced something, and that thing was struggling desperately!
"Still want to run?"
Master Zhao started the non-proprietary performance very professionally, and the onlookers watching on the side were so excited!
Although they couldn't see anything, they firmly believed that Master Zhao Tianshi's sword had pierced the monster's body!
That's right!
Look, the tip of the peach wood sword has begun to turn red!
While everyone was staring intently at Master Zhao's performance, no one noticed that Jiang Jiang in the crowd had already gently raised his sleeves and secretly aimed at the door of Mantanghong. The next moment -
"what!"
A scream pierced the sky.
Everyone was dumbfounded, because they saw that the peach wood sword in the hand of Zhao Tianshi, who was just full of vigor and fighting the fox demon to death, suddenly flew out strangely, and Zhao Tianshi's robe was torn, as if it was cut by the sharp claws of an invisible monster, and even traces of bright red blood seeped out.
This……
"This fox demon is so powerful!"
Some timid people have already retreated quietly, ready to run away at any time!
At this moment, the most confused person in the scene was naturally Master Zhao Tianshi.
He had no idea what had happened. He just felt a gust of wind, and then his sword was knocked away. His arm was also injured, although it was only a minor scratch, but... this was too weird!
Because he didn't see any hidden weapons flying by.
"Master, are you okay?"
The two little Taoist boys who were maintaining order on the sidelines were also confused by this sudden accident, and they all looked at Master Zhao nervously.
"I'm fine, this... this fox demon is too strong!"
Master Zhao pretended to be calm and subconsciously reached into his arms, wanting to take out his most valuable magic weapon. At this moment, the mahogany table that had been placed beside him seemed to be cut in half by something, and it broke into two pieces and collapsed with a loud bang.
Damn it.
Zhao Tianshi cried out in his heart—
Could there really be a monster in this Mantanghong?
He made up his mind and while no one was paying attention, he quickly put a blood bag into his mouth and bit it hard. He took a few steps back with a pale face and bright red liquid kept flowing out from the corners of his lips.
"Big brother, don't panic. This fox demon is evenly matched with me. If I get hurt, she won't be in good shape either."
Tianshi Zhao wiped the blood from the corner of his lips with a righteous look, then took out two talismans and handed them to his two disciples without thinking: "Quick, while the fox demon is seriously injured, stick these talismans on the door!"
Seeing how convincingly their master acted, the two little Taoist boys immediately followed suit. Despite the invisible pressure, they walked to the gate and pasted the two cinnabar talismans there.
"puff!"
At this moment, Tianshi Zhao spat out a large mouthful of blood. Meng Haowen, who was standing by, immediately stepped forward nervously and asked, "Tianshi Zhao, are you okay? Did you really hurt her badly? She...she couldn't have been beaten to death by you, did you?"
Compared to Master Zhao in front of him, Meng Haowen seemed to be more concerned about the fox demon in Mantanghong.
Master Zhao Tianshi had a dark face.
It’s already this late, and you’re still thinking about the fox girl!
wrong!
Zhao Tianshi's heart trembled——
Could it be that the fox demon was really that powerful, bewitching the young master of the Meng family into this state?
Thinking of this, Master Zhao Tianshi's back was immediately wet with cold sweat.
"She is very advanced in Taoism. I only injured her temporarily and sealed her inside. My cultivation level is not enough to completely subdue her. It seems that I have to ask my senior brother for help!"
Zhao Tianshi said this seriously, and at the same time he had already made up his mind that after finishing this job, he would leave the capital. The capital was too complicated and not suitable for him.
"Oh, that's good that he's not dead, that's good that he's not dead." Meng Haowen on the side breathed a sigh of relief.
It would be such a pity if such a beautiful fox demon were killed.
"My senior brother is traveling around the world and is not in the capital at the moment. Since Master Meng has entrusted me with the task of exorcising the demon, I must take responsibility to the end. Today's matter ends here. Master Meng, you must not uncover the talisman at the door of Mantanghong. I will leave the capital tomorrow and look for my senior brother for you..." Master Zhao gave Meng Haowen a lot of detailed instructions again, and he didn't care whether Meng Haowen listened or not. Anyway, it was time for him to finish his work and go home.
…………
Master Zhao fought with the Qingqiu fox demon for three hundred rounds at the gate of Mantanghong, and both of them were injured in the end!
The news quickly spread in the capital. At that time, there were so many people watching at the gate of Mantanghong that after Master Zhao left, some people even brought offerings and worshipped the fox spirit not far from Mantanghong.
Jiang Jiang's eyes were wide open.
So, you ordinary people, are you afraid of monsters or not?
Dong Pingle, who was sitting by the window on the opposite street, also had a look of being unsatisfied.
"Tsk tsk, this is really interesting. Cheng'an, where do you think this demon in the mantanghong came from?" Dong Pingle was really interested now.
"Who knows? Maybe someone is playing tricks?" In any case, Liu Cheng'an didn't believe that there really was a Qingqiu fox demon in this world.
It's complete nonsense!
Only a fool like Meng Haowen would believe that!
