Day and night tour

Chapter 157 The energy of life and death
"That's life and death!"

Lu Mingkun went to ask Zhou Xuan for more details about the "sacrifice".

Zhou Xuan told Lu Mingkun exactly what he saw in the gap in time and space.

After hearing this, the fifth brother had an expression of disbelief, and said, "It is reasonable for the evil god to use evil magic, but this evil magic is too evil. In the past, ordinary people would not use such vicious methods unless they were seeking revenge for the murder of their father or the extermination of their clan. Liu Jinmin and Old Lady Liu are mother and son!"

Lu Mingkun had already seen through the truth about the "evil god sacrifice" and explained it to Zhou Xuan.

He said that the pale yellow air was life force, and the ink-black air was human death energy.

"When a person is about to die, a kind of death aura will be born in the body, similar to the smell of rotting food. The smell of death aura is light at first, but when the person is about to die, the smell becomes very strong. Junior brother, when you were in the Zhou family class, you often saw crows circling, right?"

"Correct."

"Crows can smell the smell of death, and they particularly like this smell. After a person dies, the death smell will take a few days to disappear, which will naturally attract crows to hover nearby."

Lü Mingkun also said: "Death Qi will only appear when a person's life is about to end. After the death Qi appears, the life Qi will quickly decline. From a certain perspective, it is impossible for the death Qi and the life Qi to reach their peak at the same time.

However, there is an evil method popular among the people, which involves pouring molten iron on a person's body, peeling off the flesh and blood. Under such severe pain, the person's desire to survive actually grows rapidly.

The desire to survive pushed the life force to the limit, but because the person was already dying, the death force also quickly reached its peak.

At this moment, both life and death are extremely intense at the same time.

This evil method was later learned by some bad guys. They found that not only molten iron, but any cruel method that could quickly put a person into a dying state could awaken both the vital and dead qi at the same time. "

"What is the purpose of doing this evil practice?"

"When the vital energy and the dead energy reach their peak at the same time, the rules of the alternation between the vital energy and the dead energy are destroyed. After a person dies, the soul cannot be summoned by the will and does not know where to go. It can only wander around the place where it lives and will never be reincarnated!"

Lü Mingkun said: "It makes the soul of a person unable to be reborn forever and suffer great torture before death. Unless it is revenge for the murder of one's father, this method will not be used."

"Let's go, let's make Liu Jinmin suffer this method today."

Zhou Xuan looked towards the True Fate Church grimly.

……

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

There was a knock on the door of the True Destiny Church.

"Who?" The God of Life sat up from the bed and his eyes became alert.

Like all evildoers, he is always more vigilant than ordinary people, and becomes like a frightened bird at the slightest sign of trouble.

But he didn't know that his position had been locked by Zhou Xuan's perception.

"Who?"

After asking one more question, the God of Life quickly put on his clothes, bent down to put on his shoes, and planned to escape through the back door.

Bang!
A bamboo knife pierced through the door and nailed his right hand to the ground.

The second flying knife came and pierced his shoulder blade again.

The huge force pinned him to the ground.

The door was kicked open,

Lu Mingkun shook his gown gracefully and slowly walked to the side of the God of Life.

"Isn't he called the God of Life? So weak?"

After Lu Mingkun made a sarcastic remark, he summoned two bamboo leaf knives with both hands at the same time, and they flew back into his hands.

He kicked the God of Life hard in the chest, knocking him down. Then he leaped into the air and the two flying knives flew out again with great force, piercing the opponent's left and right scapula and nailing the God of Life to the ground.

The God of Life twisted his body and tried to lift up the bamboo leaf knife.

Lu Mingkun stepped on the god of life with his foot as if he was stepping on a randomly moving earthworm!

"You claim to be a god, but you are a coward who deceives people. Where is the evil god in your body? Why can't he help you now?"

Lü Mingkun mocked the God of Destiny,

Zhou Xuan also entered the room. He knew which room Liu Jinmin was in. He even sensed that Liu Jinmin heard the noise outside and was extremely frightened. He was hiding under the bed, trembling.

But Zhou Xuan did not go to pull Liu Jinmin out, but went into the kitchen by himself, picked up a big pot, lit a fire, and boiled a large pot of water.

While the water was boiling, Zhou Xuan walked around the room and looked around.

The True Destiny Church looks shabby from the outside, but the interior is decorated quite luxuriously. In the corner of the living room, there is an automatic telephone with a thick phone book next to it.

There are three types of telephones in Jingguo: magnetic type, common power type, and automatic type.

The difference is that for the first two types of calls, you need to pick up the phone and tell the operator the number you want to dial, and the operator is responsible for dialing the number.

The automatic type is much more advanced. You can just dial any number you want. Of course, the advanced type has a high price. It is much more expensive than the first two types of phones.

"This deceptive church is quite rich."

Zhou Xuan took the phone book and looked for the number.

It is called a telephone book, but in fact it is just a dozen sheets of paper. Although Mingjiang Prefecture is an economic capital, the penetration rate of telephones is not very high.

The cost of installing and using a telephone is difficult for small households to afford.

Soon, Zhou Xuan found Li Mansion of Huifeng Medical College in the phone book.

Before Zhou Xuan entered the house, he used his perception to detect that there was a telephone in the living room.

Every family with a telephone also has a phone book. Otherwise, how could one remember so many phone numbers?

As for Li Chengfeng, a big shot in Gu Lao, it is impossible that he doesn’t have a telephone at home.

Zhou Xuan planned to ask Li Chengfeng to find out the most perfect way to deal with the Evil God and prevent the God of Fate from reviving.

……

The phone rang several times.
Luo Ma, a maid who slept on the first floor of Li Mansion, put on her clothes and muttered, "Who is it? Calling in the middle of the night?" as she walked to the phone and picked up the receiver.

"Hello, who is it?"

"Looking for Teacher Li."

"He's already asleep, so it's inconvenient for him to answer the phone. Call him tomorrow." Luo's mother refused bluntly.

"When you ask him to answer the phone, just tell him my name is Zhou Jun!" Zhou Xuan was even more impolite.

This impoliteness made Luo Ma a little uneasy. On weekdays, she was the one who answered most of the calls from Li Mansion, and every time they called, they asked her to ask Li Chengfeng to answer the phone.
Faced with such an impolite visitor all of a sudden, Luo Ma did not dare to delay and went upstairs and knocked on the door.

"Sir, there's a phone number."

"I'm resting, why am I answering the phone?" Li Chengfeng said angrily.

"It was Zhou Jun who called." Luo Ma reminded.

There was a burst of hurried footsteps, and the door was quickly opened.

Li Chengfeng forgot to put on his slippers and ran downstairs. When he picked up the phone, he smiled and said, "Young man, are you still awake?"

"Did I disturb your rest?"

"Don't disturb me. I don't sleep well anyway. It doesn't matter whether I rest or not."

Li Chengfeng thought Zhou Xuan called to ask about the progress of his search for ancient books on spirit mediums, so he reported on the progress and said, "Young sir, I have found all the ancient books related to spirit mediums for you. Tomorrow I will look through them all and find a few of the most typical ones, and then show them to you."

"Oh... I'm not talking about spirit mediums. I'm asking, if you encounter an evil spirit, how to deal with him in the most perfect way."

"That depends on how advanced your cultivation is!"

"How do you judge whether one's Taoism is high?" Zhou Xuan asked Li Chengfeng again.

Li Chengfeng said: "The evil gods and the white walkers have some similarities, but they are completely different. The white walkers that have just been born have entities, but the evil gods that have just descended do not.
If the evil god has already condensed into a physical body, then his cultivation level is very high."

Afraid that Zhou Xuan didn't understand, Li Chengfeng explained, "If the evil god already has a physical body, then the vessel he descends into will have inhuman behavior, such as growing extra limbs, or having exaggerated bulges somewhere on the body."

"Oh, so that's how it is? Then what should we do if he is not very skilled?"

"The evil god did not come for no reason. He has an idol. Find his idol and destroy it. If conditions permit, it would be safer to kill his feet."

"understood."

……

Zhou Xuan hung up the phone. He first asked Lu Mingkun to take off the clothes of the God of Life and check whether he had any inhuman symptoms.

Logically speaking, such a weak God of Life would not be an evil god with great power, but it is always a good idea to check more. What if it is pretending to be weak?
Lu Mingkun pulled out the knife of the God of Life, and in no time, he stripped off all his clothes and examined him carefully.

When it comes to taking off clothes, the fifth senior brother is very professional. He has been doing corpse cleaning rituals for many years and has stripped clothes from many corpses.

He was just checking when Liu Jinmin, who had been hiding, recognized Zhou Xuan's voice and immediately shouted to the God of Life, "God of Life, his name is Zhou Dafu! I met him today. His name is among the five names you choose tonight. He is your sacrifice!" Hearing that Zhou Xuan was a sacrifice, the God of Life's eyes became ferocious and he muttered, "Zhou Dafu! Zhou Dafu! I am the god of your life..."

Zhou Xuan stood where he was, pointing at himself with both hands, signaling the God of Destiny to try harder.

"Chow Tai Fook... Chow Tai Fook..."

"God of Life, please try harder. You are just a little bit away from bewitching me."

Zhou Xuan's sarcastic tone made Lu Mingkun laugh out loud.

"Zhou Dafu..." The God of Life was unwilling to give up the last straw and was still trying to seduce him, calling Zhou Xuan's name very attentively.

Zhou Xuan walked over and slapped the God of Life in the face: "Fuck you! Do you think I'm as brainless as your stupid believer? At a funeral, I was holding a red book and looking for people to sign?

Fifth Brother, give him a few more stabs, so he can stop calling other people's names when he has nothing to do!"

When Lv Mingkun heard about the knife, he got excited and grabbed the bamboo knife. He first stabbed the life god with three cuts and six holes...

Zhou Xuan found a stone statue in the bedroom of the God of Life.

The stone statue is of an old man with a hunched back, and five or six babies' heads sticking out of his back.

There were nine blood pits on his chest, and the pattern of the blood pits was exactly the same as that on Liu Jinmin's chest.

This stone statue is the appearance of the God of Life after it continues to grow and condenses into a physical entity.

“That’s it.”

Zhou Xuan held the statue and walked out of the bedroom. Here, the water was boiling and bubbling.

"The water is turned on just in time." Zhou Xuan entered another bedroom, raised his hand to lift up the bed board, grabbed Liu Jinmin who was hiding under the bed by the hair, and dragged him out like a dead dog.

Even though Liu Jinmin is big in stature, Zhou Xuan is a man who worships gods and practices the Yin-yang art, so he is much stronger than an average person.

"You're trying to harm me, aren't you? Are you taking my son's ashes? And you're telling on me?"

Zhou Xuan dragged Liu Jinmin to the stove and pressed his head into the pot.

"Brother Zhou...Brother Zhou...We don't have such a big grudge...Really...Really not...Ah!"

Zhou Xuan didn't bother to care about anything else and pushed his head into the boiling water.

"Your forehead is dirty, so I'll wash your hair!"

Zhou Xuan's hands were like pliers, pressing Liu Jinmin fiercely into the boiling water, with white smoke curling around.

After soaking for four or five minutes, he pulled out Liu Jinmin, whose head was covered with blood blisters.

"Brother...let go..."

"Hey, you're still talking so fluently?"

Zhou Xuan pushed Liu Jinmin's head into the boiling water again.

Another two or three minutes passed before Liu Jinmin was dragged out. He could only breathe in but not out.

Zhou Xuan took the stone statue and pointed it at the God of Life: "Now, don't say I didn't give you a chance. I'll absorb his life and death energy, and then I'll let you go!"

Hearing this, the God of Life, who had been tortured to the point of having only half his life left, had no choice but to kneel on the ground, with nine bloody pits on his chest.

As the blood pits opened and closed, two streams of smoke emanated from Liu Jinmin's body and were then absorbed by the nine blood pits.

"Fifth Brother! It's up to you now. You can't let him die in the process of absorbing the vital and dead energy."

"rest assured!"

Lu Mingkun held a bamboo knife, straddled Liu Jinmin's legs, lowered his body, and cut a bloody hole in the man's chest with one knife.

"Damn it, I'm making you sick, Master Wu!"

"Ah..." Liu Jinmin cried out in pain extremely weakly, just like when he was torturing Old Lady Liu.

Lu Mingkun repeated this, knife after knife, until Liu Jinmin's worthless life was saved until both the life and death energies were sucked away completely.

The seven blood holes on his body were also gouged out cleanly. For the last cut, Lv Mingkun's bamboo leaf knife was placed against his throat and slowly moved forward...

"Can you let me go?" The God of Life asked Zhou Xuan hurriedly when he saw Liu Jinmin dead.

Zhou Xuan laughed sinisterly and said, "Fifth Senior Brother, just as you dealt with Liu Jinmin, deal with this God of Life again!"

"You...you don't keep your word!"

"You are an evil god, and you want to keep your word with me? Twice!" Zhou Xuan raised two fingers.

Lu Mingkun smiled happily and said, "Those seven holes just now disgusted me, but your nine holes are even more disgusting... Come, let Master Wu serve you well!"

Soaked in boiling water, cut with a knife to make a bloody hole, soaked in boiling water again, stabbed with a knife randomly,

The God of Life, in the name of God, suffered torture comparable to purgatory.

When the God of Life had no more breath of life and was only slightly twisting with the will of the evil god in his body, Zhou Xuan stood up and smashed the stone statue to pieces.

The God of Life's final twist also stopped, ending his sinful life.

The talisman for clearing injustices on Zhou Xuan’s chest vibrated. He took it out and turned to the last page - he was about to die, and on August 25th, he would be cleared of his injustices at the True Fate Church on Qiuchang Road, Mingjiang Prefecture.

This time, the injustice was cleared up in not just one line, but two lines were repeated.

What do the two lines mean?
Zhou Xuan felt that this should be the second chance to enter the Totem Hall!

The last time I killed Chun Meng, it took almost five incense sticks for me to be given a chance to enter the Totem Hall.

This time, the God of Life was killed. The God of Life was so weak that it seemed that he had no incense, and he actually gave him two chances to enter the Totem Hall.

"The number of rewards doesn't seem to have anything to do with how clever the opponent is. It mainly depends on what kind of person the opponent is."

Chunmeng was a human, so he was given it once; the God of Fate was an evil god, although he was a very weak evil god, but he was given it twice; what if the object of the redress was a White Walker, how many times would he be given it?

Zhou Xuan put away the Cleansing Wrongs Talisman. At this time, the body that was obsessed with "dying" had already disintegrated into glowing points of light and penetrated into Zhou Xuan's body.

These spots of light represent the memories of the obsessives during their lifetime.

Zhou Xuan searched through these memory fragments carefully, but didn't seem to see anything useful.

However, among the people killed by Liu Jinguang, there were more than ten people from Dongshi Street, including an elderly person from Dongshi Street. Zhou Xuan saw such a scene from his memory.

"On the street of Dongshi Street, there was a mentally retarded child of about four or five years old, standing in the middle of the street, staring blankly into the distance. When a rickshaw passed by, he did not dodge, but stood there in a daze. Fortunately, a young girl rushed to the child and took him away in time, so he was not hit by the rickshaw.

The girl held the child and asked: What’s your name?
The child was stunned.

"What's your last name?"

The child was still stunned.

"This kid is a wild kid, without a father or a mother, and he fights with dogs for food every day."

An old lady passing by said to the girl.

The girl was kind-hearted and said, "Since you are so dull, just give yourself the surname Mu. I will call you Muhua and you can call me Cuijie. It's just right that we can be companions and live together."

Sister Cui carried Muhua on her shoulders and continued walking forward. There were a few strands of orange fox hair clinging to her shoulders.

As the memory scenes disappeared, Zhou Xuan finally realized that Mu Hua and Cui Jie were not biological siblings.

"Sister Cui is so nice."

Zhou Xuan sighed.

……

Zhou Xuan and Lu Mingkun found two clean gowns in the house, changed their clothes, took out the old wine hidden in the church, sprinkled it on Liu Jinmin and the God of Life, lit a fire, and went out.

The two men walked on the road, both with their backs slightly hunched, looking harmless and polite.

Zhou Xuan was telling Lu Mingkun how two living people, "Old Lady Liu" and "The Blacksmith", had their heads burned by glass and their throats pierced by red iron.

"It's all that evil god's fault..."

……

When the two bodies in the True Fate Church were burned to only bones, a black shadow resembling a hound sneaked into the house, sniffed the room carefully, and then swam out of the room along the path that Lu Mingkun and Zhou Xuan had taken.

The hound Shadow has no consciousness and he only takes orders from one woman.

At this moment, the woman's voice lingered in the shadow's ears - "Someone dared to cut off my arm! Xiao Hei, find them for us!"

ps: The second update will be nearly 10,000 words, brothers.
