Mysteries of the Great Zhou Dynasty

Chapter 70 White Jade Jar
Taoist Master Xuanji was extremely powerful. He pulled up a small willow tree beside the courtyard gate and threw it over. The firewood was scattered and the fire wall was broken. The little red spiders were ready to move and were about to file in. The villagers all fled into the house.

At this time, two people fell from the sky, one of them was a handsome man with white hair, and the other was a pretty girl.

Some villagers stood there in shock, stunned, and forgot to run away.

"Ah! It's the Lord Mountain God! It must be the Lord Mountain God who has mercy on us. Please protect us!" A villager knelt on the ground as if he had suddenly realized something. When the other villagers heard this, they also knelt on the ground, and the sounds of begging for mercy came one after another.

"Stupid!" The white-haired man was Yin Tian. He had an indifferent expression, neither happy nor sad. He just looked at the villagers kneeling on the ground with great disgust. There was no emotion in his eyes, as if he was looking at a group of ants.

The girl searched the crowd and saw the familiar figure, then she breathed a sigh of relief: He's okay, that's great!

"Rong girl, be careful, that demon is very powerful!" Su Zhan shouted at the top of his voice. Yan Mingzhang also wanted to warn her, but he opened his mouth but no sound came out.

Rong Wanyin nodded to show that she understood.

"Little girl, get behind me and don't get in the way!" Yin Tian said coldly.

Rong Wanyin hurriedly hid far away.

When Taoist Xuanji saw Yin Tian coming, he was attracted to him as if he smelled some pleasant scent, and his face was intoxicated.

Without even looking at him, Yin Tian pulled out a white jade jar, bit open his right index finger, and dripped two drops of blood into it. He opened the jar, set it on the ground, and muttered something incoherently. The others were far away, but Rong Wanyin could hear it clearly. It was that nursery rhyme! Who could have imagined that nursery rhyme could actually control the Great Red Spider's spell?
Taoist Xuanji suddenly became like a possessed person, in extreme pain, rolling on the ground. Then a big lump bulged out of his right eye, and then, as if something had bitten it from the inside, the big red spider crawled out of his eyeball!
The scene was extremely disgusting. The big red spider followed the smell of blood and crawled straight towards the white jade jar. The small red spiders, on the contrary, were not affected by the two drops of blood and crawled towards Taoist Xuanji's body. In an instant, his body was covered with dense small red spiders.

Rong Wanyin suppressed her nausea and took several steps back.

Seeing that the big red spider had already crawled into the white jade jar, Yin Tian calmly closed the lid, picked it up with a look of disgust, and said to the big red spider: "You are eating dirty things, you are so dirty, believe it or not, I will burn you to death!"

After Yin Tian finished dealing with the big red spider, he frowned as he looked at the small red spiders and said, "This guy actually came up with so many little gadgets, isn't he afraid of backlash?"

After all the little red spiders had crawled onto the corpse, he pulled out a bottle of powder from his pocket and sprinkled the pale yellow powder around the body, then sprinkled the powder all over the body. Finally, he pulled out a bottle of liquid and poured it all over the body without leaving a drop. The powder sprayed onto the liquid, instantly forming a pile of white foam, which would have killed any little red spiders that touched it. However, the little red spiders seemed unafraid and rushed towards the white foam. In a short while, all the little red spiders were dead.

Rong Wanyin then ran towards the inn's gate. Seeing that everyone was safe and sound, she breathed a sigh of relief. "Senior, could you please help check on our master? He's been poisoned by this little red spider!"

Yin Tian followed Rong Wanyin into the inn very reluctantly. He was surrounded by curious villagers. Yin Tian looked around with dissatisfaction: "There are so many people. Are you afraid that the patient won't die fast enough?" Su Zhan then sent the yamen runners to settle the villagers, and he took Yan Mingzhang and others to the largest guest room on the first floor.

Yin Tian raised his chin and said, "Little girl, stay here. Everyone else, get out! Boil some more hot water and make some food! Go do what you need to do!"

Everyone scattered like birds and beasts, each going about their own business. Only Su Zhan and Chang Feng were left at the door, looking around anxiously.

"Little girl, have you thought it through? Don't forget that my saving people is conditional. You have to die early. If you die too late, you will be too old, and the doll you make will not be beautiful!" Yin Tian said in a flat tone, as if he was saying that the dress was beautiful.

Yan Mingzhang didn't hear it clearly, but his intuition told him that it was definitely not a good thing. He wanted to speak up to stop it, but he felt himself being knocked down and then fainted. He only heard Rong Wanyin's answer, but he didn't know what it was.

……

Yin Tian took out the white jade jar and gently placed the big red spider on it. The big red spider greedily sucked blood, and Yan Mingzhang's face slowly turned from dark purple to rosy.

Seeing that it was almost done, Yin Tian cut his finger and dripped a drop of blood into the white jade jar. The big red spider seemed to be tempted and quickly left Yan Mingzhang's wound and crawled into the white jade jar.

Yin Tian glanced at the stunned Rong Wanyin before slowly explaining, "I raised this giant red spider. My blood is a fatal attraction to it, and nothing can replace it. I'm the only one who can cure this poison. Without this drop of my blood, it will continue to suck blood until it dies, just like those mummies. Or you can sacrifice yourself and let the spider enter your body, turning you into a puppet, like the girls in my courtyard. But if you don't handle it properly, you'll go crazy, just like that demon."

"Then why do I always smell the scent of camphor wood?" Rong Wanyin asked in confusion.

Yin Tian chuckled and said softly, "Camphor wood is an indispensable material for making puppets. If this puppet is well made, it can even make a person breathe and move, not much different from an ordinary person. Isn't it amazing, little girl? When you become such an immortal puppet, I will dress you up beautifully every day. My puppet-making skills are very good, and these crudely made puppets can't compare to it."

Rong Wanyin realized that there was a lot of mystery in this, but she didn't dare to ask further. She could only give Yin Tian a blank look and help Yan Mingzhang wipe his face.

Yin Tian took a look, smiled without saying anything, packed up his things and opened the door.

Su Zhan and Chang Feng, who were eavesdropping outside the door, couldn't control themselves and rushed in. Chang Feng had some skills and steadied himself, but poor Su Zhan fell flat on his face. Chang Feng glanced at Yin Tian and was secretly shocked: He thought this 'mountain god' had set his eyes on Miss Rong and wanted to steal his wife, but who knew this 'mountain god' was going to make Miss Rong a puppet! No, we must find a way to prevent this man from succeeding!
Without even looking at the two of them, Yin Tian instructed Rong Wanyin, "Little girl, have someone call my evil disciple over, and also have someone bring over those crudely made puppets. It's annoying to look at these dirty things without cleaning them up!"

Su Zhan and Chang Feng looked at each other in bewilderment. Disciple? Who?
