Folklore: The baby starts the game, and the mother takes off her painted skin

Chapter 174 Light the Red Candle [ask for monthly ticket]

Normally, if a Yin bead that can enhance Qi and blood falls on the ground, people will rush to grab it, not to mention that this is the original fire that can permanently enhance the life fire.

Ji Changan, Liu Bai and Shen Ruoruo who planned this, and the funeral temple incense master and Tiger Aunt who were of no use but wanted to cause trouble.

In addition, there are those Yang Shen and Yin people who have not yet seen the situation clearly but are already prepared to take action.

For example...Niu Ben from Shefu Hall.

After listening to the funeral temple incense master and Tiger Auntie saying "Original Fire" one after another, he jumped onto an ancient tree and said loudly:
"Ji's son, I was wondering why you are so generous. It turns out that there is such a good thing as the Origin of Fire under this Fire-raising Ground!"

After he shouted loudly, the Yangshen walking in the Yin direction on the Laba Festival side immediately shouted: "Brother Niu, I don't know what this Origin Fire is, please tell me what kind of treasure it is?"

The fog was so thick that people had to hide under it and no one could be seen.

Niu Ben didn't hide it and shouted directly: "Break the sky, a big treasure that is better than this old cow like me."

"If you can get it, you can kill your Laba Sect Leader!"

"Damn, this is a good thing, take it with your life!"

For a moment, many people under the fog began to get restless.

As the original fire in the air swayed violently, a little boy walked out from among the idle people in the north.

He looks like he is about eleven or twelve years old, and has an ugly appearance, but his head is so huge that he has to use both hands to support it when walking.

Moreover, the way he walked was extremely strange, and he stumbled with every step.

"I am a good boy. I just light this fire and talk as usual." His voice was hoarse and seemed to carry a hint of sadness.

He walked forward a few steps, then suddenly raised his right hand, pointed at Ji Changan who was standing on the mist platform, and said loudly:

"But you have seized my soul and caused me to suffer this terrible disease? You have suffered nothing in the past, but today I will make you pay for it with your life."

Liu Bai and Shen Ruoruo were standing halfway up the mountain, and they couldn't help but stare wide-eyed at the sight.

He had never seen this strange man, but judging from the situation before him... there must be something fishy going on.

"This doesn't seem to be from our Yunzhou City..." Shen Ruoruo looked at the man and spoke softly.

After hearing this, Xiaocao first said "Hey" in Liu Bai's mind, and then popped his head out from behind Liu Bai in a very arrogant manner.

"This man has quite a background."

"He should be practicing the 'fairness' method. As long as someone hurts him, he can choose to hurt the other person as well."

"If someone kills him, then that person will also die if his strength is no more than two levels higher than his."

"It's even more domineering than the Buddhist's silent meditation."

After Xiaocao finished speaking, he also gave a summary and comparison.

When Shen Ruoruo heard this, her expression changed slightly, "Are you talking about...the family in Wei State?"

"Hey, you have some knowledge." Xiaocao tilted his head and looked at Shen Ruoruo in surprise.

Liu Bai patted Xiaocao's head, signaling it to go back.

Because after the big-headed kid finished speaking, the original fire actually moved!

Originally it was just a ball of original fire, but in the blink of an eye, it split into two halves.

Half of them stayed where they were, while the other half actually floated straight towards the big-headed kid.

"You have sacrificed half of my life, but I am only willing to exchange this half of my essence. I am really the kind-hearted person that my master said I was, and I am bullied all day long."

The big-headed kid looked at the origin fire falling with an extremely happy look in his eyes.

But he covered his chest with one hand, as if he had suffered a great injustice and suffered a great loss.

"Brother, let's do it too!"

After Shen Ruoruo finished speaking, the life fire ignited on her right hand which was holding the Taoist talisman, and engulfed the entire talisman.

Liu Bai followed suit and burned the talisman with his life fire.

Then he felt a pulling force, and when he looked up again, he saw that the Origin Fire, which had been split into two halves in mid-air, split into two again.

In the blink of an eye, the original fire, which was originally a ball, had split into four parts!
One part remained in the air, being pulled by Ji Changan's small bronze tripod, and the other part floated towards the big-headed child.

The remaining two floated towards Liu Bai and Shen Ruoruo.

This matter... is really interesting!

Moreover, Shen Ruoruo's talisman looks very powerful and the effect is not bad, otherwise it would not be able to attract the original fire.

It seemed as if the dust was finally settling.

Liu Bai was also ready to take out the red candle and light it up to see if he could get some more original fire from others.

But at this moment, something strange happened again.

In mid-air, the little original fire that Ji Changan had left was split into two again, and one part fell and floated straight to the ground...Niu Ben!
Compared to Liu Bai and others who all used their own methods, Niu Ben had no methods at all.

Even he didn't expect that he could actually get such a great opportunity. He raised his head and widened his eyes.

"Oh my goodness."

As a result, Ji Changan, who originally thought that he could keep the original fire alone, ended up with the smallest portion in the blink of an eye.

How could he bear this?

"Good good!"

Ji Changan shouted, "You are trying to steal my things, right?"

After saying that, he suddenly threw the small bronze tripod in his hand into the sky.

The small bronze tripod, which was only the size of a palm at first, suddenly became three feet tall after being thrown out by him. It stood in the air and kept spinning on the spot.

Immediately afterwards, Ji Changan threw out a dried corpse that looked like it had been drained of blood and flesh, and the corpse fell under the bronze tripod.

Then a flame emerged from his body and burned all over his body.

Burn the cauldron with your own body.

The moment Ji Chang'an threw out the bronze tripod, Niu Ben, the big-headed kid, and even Liu Bai and Shen Ruoruo on the ground all jumped up and grabbed towards the origin of the fire.

"Sir, it's useless!"

"You can't catch the origin fire. You have to wait for it to enter your body."

The grass shouted when it saw this, but in fact there was no need for it to shout.

Because Liu Bai stretched out his hand to grab the original fire, but his hand flipped and it was empty. The original fire passed through his hand, and then... it floated in the air.

Not only his, but the other several balls of original fire are like this.

After Liu Bai landed on the ground, he looked up again and saw that all the scattered original fire was floating towards the bronze tripod.

Ji Changan's ball of original fire was already hovering above the bronze tripod.

In this way, if the remaining separated original fires return, they will inevitably become one.

A flame, which was not very big to begin with, was pulled repeatedly by several people.

"Damn it!"

Shen Ruoruo, who was standing by, cursed subconsciously when she saw that her talisman could not defeat the opponent.

"Xiao Cao, how does my red candle compare to his small tripod?" Liu Bai asked in his mind.

"Don't worry, sir. When it comes to snatching the original fire, nothing can be more reliable than your red candle." Xiaocao was very confident.

Just when Liu Bai was about to take it out, he heard Niu Ben on the ground roar.

"Everyone, this method is useless. We might as well just kill Ji Changan. We can divide the Origin Fire equally among us!"

"I, Lao Niu, opened it first!"

After Niu Ben finished speaking, he also jumped onto the fog platform. When his body was on fire, a burning bull with huge horns jumped out from his chest and crashed into Ji Chang'an.

As soon as the technique was performed, he threw out a cover-shooting disk.

It was covered with a red cloth, and then the shooting plate fell in front of Ji Changan, motionless.

"Ah!"

Ji Chang'an, who was originally just a Yin-nourishing God, did not show any fear when he saw Niu Ben, the Yang-nourishing God, attacking him. There was even a hint of ridicule in his eyes.

Just when Liu Bai thought that he was either faking his strength or had other cards up his sleeve.

But he looked up and shouted.

"Sister, save me!"

Liu Bai: “???”

His sister was the silent and taciturn Ji Junlan who had followed him the day before and was responsible for pouring the water for praying.

If Liu Bai wasn't short, he would have to look up every time he saw her.

You may not even be able to see her face clearly.

And now it seems that this Ji Junlan is the trump card? The one who nourishes the Yang God and walks in the Yin? Or is she cultivating a second life...

As the thought flashed through Liu Bai's mind, Ji Junlan had already stood in front of Ji Changan, blocking the fire bull and the shooting disk.

But compared to before, she was still a living person then, but at this moment... she still looks like a human being.

But to be precise, it is a paper man.

She had a big red peony on her hair and rouge on her face. Her face was half-covered and pale, without any trace of human color. Even between her eyelids, traces of paper could be seen.

"Don't bully my brother." Ji Junlan covered her mouth and tilted her head slightly. She had already stretched out her right hand and pressed against the head of the fire bull.

She just stretched out her hand gently, but the fire bull was unable to move forward even an inch.

"A mere paper figure, isn't he afraid of burning himself to death?"

Niu Ben sneered when he saw this, but before he could finish laughing, his eyes widened, because he saw the weak paper figure Ji Junlan clamping the fire bull's neck with one hand.

Then he fell upside down and knocked him down on the fog platform.

Her bravery made Liu Bai stunned, and a sentence suddenly popped up in his mind...Lin Daiyu uprooted a weeping willow.

After the paper man Ji Junlan knocked the fire bull down, a pool of water squeezed out of her body. The water seemed like a living thing on the mist platform and directly wrapped around the fire bull.

In just a blink of an eye, the fire bull, which was still burning with raging flames, was extinguished by the water.

Then Ji Junlan stood up and shook her body, just like she was shedding a shell. As she retreated, she left a paper man behind.

The paper figure initially had her face, waiting for her to withdraw.

The paper figure transformed into Ji Changan's appearance, squatted down, and said to the shooting disk: "I see that you are the head of Niu Ben."

The guessing game worked, and the paper figure lifted up the red cloth on top.

There was a round river stone underneath.

The paper man failed in his attempt to guess the cover. Judging from the effects of the magic in the Shefu Hall, he should be seriously injured.

But this was just a paper figure. Once it was covered with a gun, it died instantly and turned into ashes.

Ji Changan behind him was intact.

And above the bronze cauldron above his head, the originally scattered original fire had now merged into one again, and then slowly fell down, as if about to fall into the cauldron.

"Why don't you hurry up and act!"

Niu Ben roared.

"I come!"

Shen Ruoruo had already paid so much before, and now the original fire was right in front of her. She would not just watch this opportunity slip away.

She did not move, but when she raised her hands, four red lines flew out from her hands, one end connected her hands, and the other end cut through the darkness and landed on the bronze tripod.

The red line is full, and although it is forged by the fire of life, it emits a red light.

Liu Bai knew this technique, and if it weren't for the lack of time, he could even learn the "Pulling the Red Thread" technique.

And now, watching from such a close distance, he could of course notice it.

Shen Ruoruo performed this technique entirely relying on her accumulated experience, without borrowing any red thread.

As soon as she made a move, the big-headed kid on the ground followed suit.

He said, "You, a rich young man, bullied me and beat me up like this, but you are unwilling to pay me even a penny. Are you really trying to drive me to a dead end?"

As he spoke, his eyes looked lonely, as if he had suffered some great injustice.

Liu Bai hadn't made any move yet. He was still standing here watching. Naturally, he could sense a strong and gloomy aura suddenly emerging from the depression.

This big-headed kid's methods...are not like those of an ordinary assassin.

Because Liu Bai saw with his own eyes that under the fog, from the original fire-raising ground, a number of little ghosts no taller than an adult's knee emerged.

The whole body is gray, like condensed gray fog.

He looks very similar to the big-headed kid, with a thin body and a big head.

In just a breath of time, hundreds of these little ghosts came out. They didn't attack, but just surrounded the fog platform and bit it madly.

As for the souls of those people who had walked into the underworld, they were stimulated by the negative energy and woke up suddenly. Then they found their own bodies one by one.

After hiding themselves and returning to their senses, they who had been standing there in a daze suddenly woke up.

They shuddered at first, but soon cared nothing more and rushed into the woods like lost mountain rats.

Even though they knew that the Origin Fire was good, the current situation was not something they could intervene in.

If you force yourself to stay here, you will most likely die.

Under the fog, after those little ghosts took action, it only took a few breaths for most of the fog platform to be devoured.

Even those that were left had become much thinner.

"Sir, this big-headed kid is quite capable. He knows how to dig up the roots of this altar."

The grass was speaking in Liu Bai's mind.

On the other hand, Shen Ruoruo's red thread was tied to the back of the bronze tripod, and countless flames from the burning mummy under the tripod were absorbed by the red thread.

The speed at which the origin fire fell slowed down, and it even stopped moving.

Ji Changan's face turned pale, "Wu Qiu, if you don't do it now, when will you do it?"

"coming."

A response came from the forest.

Upon seeing this, Niu Ben took out a pair of large buffalo horns from Xumi, woven them with hemp rope, then he pushed his head in and put the buffalo horns on his head.

"Miss Shen, please continue. Leave this old bitch to me, Lao Niu."

The sound that Niu Ben made when he opened his mouth was like the roar of a bull.

Liu Bai squinted at his horns, guessing that his method was just like the fur peeled off those mountain elves.

I saw the ox plowing the field and crashing into Wu Qiu in the mountains.

Up to this point, there were still a few Yang Gods who had not yet joined the battle, including those from the Children's Gang, Laba Sect, and Water and Fire Sect.

Sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.

Everyone wants to be the hidden jackal...but there are always people who don't want them to do it.

For example, the incense master of the funeral temple sat on the hilltop, watching the show and talking at the same time.

"If you little guys who are raising the Yang God don't take action now, I will help you do it."

"And that Tiger Lady, the fight is too slow, how about giving her a hand?"

At first, the few Yangshen and Yin people who were still watching the fight started to take action after hearing what was said in the funeral temple.

After all, the people in the funeral temple are not the kind of people who would joke around. If they say they will chop with a knife, they will definitely not use their fists.

The hidden man from the Water and Fire Sect followed Niu Ben and went to surround and kill Wu Qiu.

The Laba Sect, together with Shen Ruoruo, poured a bowl of Laba porridge into the bronze tripod.

The man from the Children's Gang shouted to Ji Changan, "Master Ji, it's no use for them to use their numbers to bully the minority. I'll do it!"

"After you succeed, don't forget to give me a share!"

After saying that, he rushed straight towards the Laba sect's yang god who was walking on the Yin path next to him.

The two were not far away from each other, and their main attack was a sneak attack.

Seeing this, Aunt Tiger, who was watching the show, smiled and nodded. Her voice rang out from above the mountains.

"Yes, it's too slow to fight like this."

After saying that, Liu Bai felt a gust of evil wind blowing down from the top of the mountain.

The clouds follow the dragon and the wind follows the tiger.

Aunt Tiger, a tiger mountain spirit, was perched on the top of the mountain, blowing down a breath of evil wind.

She didn't blow it in the wrong direction. The evil wind blew over the bronze tripod and extinguished the flames burning on the mummy.

As the flame went out, the original fire that was originally attracted by the detention also dispersed again, this time it was divided into six and floated in all directions.

Seeing this, Liu Bai finally stopped holding it in.

Seeing Shen Ruoruo coming back after stopping, he hesitated for a moment, then pretended to take out a red candle from his cloth bag and handed it to her.

"Light this up."

Shen Ruoruo had been righteous before, and this original fire could be divided... Liu Bai couldn't keep it all to himself.

He felt that when he was away from home, he should not embarrass his mother for such a small benefit.

Things that should be snatched should be snatched, but favors that should be repaid should also be repaid. The two must be clearly distinguished.

Shen Ruoruo was puzzled, but she saw that Liu Bai had already lit a red candle in the mountains. The light was dense, dispelling the darkness around and illuminating the mountains.

Liu Bai stuck it into the ground, and when he turned around, he saw... the six balls of original fire that were originally scattered were all flying towards him.

Moreover, the speed was much faster than at any time before.

This sudden change made everyone stunned. They had never thought that there was actually an expert out there?
Shen Ruoruo realized it later and quickly lit a red candle.

On the mountain, the incense master of the funeral temple jumped up and waved his right hand vigorously. He shouted, "Good brother, good job, you didn't embarrass me!"

"Brother, are you from a funeral temple?!" Shen Ruoruo looked at him in surprise.

Liu Bai's face turned dark.
