202: I can tell at a glance that you are not human!
"Bang!"
The door was suddenly kicked open, and a dark figure walked in.
This person held a Great Treasure Sword covered in inscriptions and had a full beard. At first glance, he looked a bit like Zhong Kui.
However, his current state was not very good. He was covered in hideous and terrifying wounds, his breath was faint, and his face was bruised, clearly having been corroded by Yin Qi for a long time.
If he hadn't had profound cultivation, he would have probably died instantly by now.
Even so, he wouldn't last much longer, probably only a stick of incense, and then he would have to join the enemy's side.
"Yan Da Xia!"
Nie Xiaoqian and Xiao Zhuo exclaimed simultaneously and were about to step forward to help the heavily injured Yan Chixia in from the doorway.
However, as soon as the two women moved, Chu Mo stopped them.
"Wait, how can you be sure this Yan Chixia isn't a Prodigy disguised? Perhaps he's deliberately luring you over to then strike a fatal blow!"
Yan Chixia leaned weakly against the door, spitting out a mouthful of black blood, and cursed, "If I were a Prodigy, would I need to lure them to kill them? Their urns are still under the Tree Demon Grandma's main body. As long as I tamper with their urns, I can make them unable to reincarnate forever!"
Nie Xiaoqian and Xiao Zhuo both nodded.
What he said was right.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have been controlled by the Tree Demon Grandma for so long.
Just as the two were about to step forward, they were stopped again.
"Wait! Although that's true, the Tree Demon Grandma wants to marry you off to the Black Mountain Old Demon as the price for him to come out. When the battle starts later, if you are with us, will the Tree Demon Grandma be constrained? Will she worry about killing you and being unable to explain to the Black Mountain Old Demon?!"
Nie Xiaoqian and Xiao Zhuo nodded in realization, "That seems to make sense!"
Everyone else was confused.
Hey, no! These two ghostesses became ghost hostages?!
Yan Chixia, already heavily injured, spat out another mouthful of old blood upon hearing this.
"I, Yan Chixia, have slain countless Prodigies in my life, but I was careless and trapped in the underworld by two Prodigies.
Now, I finally waited for the Black Mountain Old Demon to leave the underworld, seized the Opportunity to escape from his City of the Dead, and returned to the human world, only to encounter you, a long-tongued busybody!"
It must be said, although Yan Chixia was scolding, his words were not vulgar at all and had no offensive nature.
Chu Mo picked his ear and flicked him lightly.
"This is called caution, do you understand caution? Besides, the suspicious points about you are not just a few.
"After escaping from the underworld back to the human world, why didn't you go anywhere else, but instead came to the county office? Moreover, there are two Prodigies, the Tree Demon Grandma and the Black Mountain Old Demon, outside, so how did you safely get here?"
"Don't tell me you avoided their perception and secretly came here. Even in your prime, you were sent to the underworld by the two of them. Now that you're severely weakened, can you still use means to avoid the two Prodigies?"
"To be honest, I don't trust you, but what puzzles me is why the Vajra Sutra I drew didn't react when you came in!"
"...Is there a possibility that your method of drawing the Vajra Sutra is wrong?" White Cloud Zen Master finally couldn't help but remind him.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! The Vajra Sutra Talisman I drew absolutely cannot be wrong!" Chu Mo didn't believe he could make a mistake.
"amitabha, Wu Kong, your drawing method is a Daoist method. Buddhist scriptures require Buddhist methods!"
In fact, White Cloud Zen Master was also very curious where Chu Mo learned all these jumbled methods.
Used separately, each was authentic.
Used together, it was a mess.
"I have my own Talisman-making methods, Chan Master, you don't understand Talisman-making at all!" Chu Mo always firmly believed that his Talisman-making method was not wrong.
By the door, Yan Chixia held the Talisman with the Vajra Sutra drawn on it, examining it carefully, and even recited it.
The syllables were profound and exceptionally authentic.
White Cloud Zen Master couldn't help but look at Yan Chixia, praising, "Benefactor, have you been exposed to Buddhist scriptures before?"
Yan Chixia nodded.
"I have indeed been exposed to them before. There was also a Prajna Paramita Heart Sutra, but it was lost when I was dealing with the Black Mountain Old Demon!"
Speaking of this, his face showed regret.
"That scripture was something I obtained by chance. It was all in Sanskrit and extremely powerful. If I had given it to you to use, it would have surely eliminated the two Prodigies!"
White Cloud Zen Master swept Yan Chixia with his Buddhist Dharma Eye. Apart from the extremely heavy Yin Qi on his body, there was no other abnormality. Coupled with the Vajra Sutra he had just chanted, his suspicion had been reduced by seventy to eighty percent.
"Let Benefactor Yan come in first. I will use my magical power to heal his injuries, which may save his life."
Seeing that White Cloud Zen Master said so.
Nie Xiaoqian and Xiao Zhuo were about to step forward again.
But they were again, and again, and again stopped by Chu Mo.
"Chan Master said Yan Da Xia has no problem, why do you repeatedly stop us?"
"Heh heh." Chu Mo sneered, looked at Yan Chixia who was lying on the ground, and roared, "Bold Prodigy, I could tell at a glance that you are not human! Great Sun Tathagata, Prajna Buddhas, World Honored Sanzang, Prajna Ba Ma Kong!"
"Bind!"
His right hand quickly formed a seal.
The Talisman in Yan Chixia's hand and the Talisman on the door suddenly glowed brightly, sticking to his body like spiritual snakes, wrapping him into a large ball, with only his bearded face exposed.
"This is... a Daoist Demon Binding Talisman! But why would a Talisman with the Vajra Sutra drawn on it have such an effect?"
White Cloud Zen Master was now full of questions.
Although the incantation just recited sounded like the "Great Luo Incantation", it was also completely unlike it.
Even more outrageous was that this was clearly a Buddhist incantation, yet it could activate a Daoist Talisman.
Furthermore, why would the other party inexplicably bind Yan Chixia like this? Yan Chixia wasn't a Prodigy!
"Sizzle sizzle!"
When all these Talismans were attached to Yan Chixia, they miraculously reacted.
Each Talisman was like a branding iron, imprinted on Yan Chixia's body, making him cry out.
"Ah! You damned fellow, since you recognize my true form, why do you toy with me!"
Yan Chixia's mouth emitted a voice that was neither male nor female.
Everyone was extremely familiar with this exasperated voice. It was none other than the voice of the Tree Demon Grandma of Lan Ruo Temple.
"Heh heh, Tree Demon Grandma, you possessed Yan Chixia's body with your Primordial Spirit, intending to confuse us with this. I have to say, you are too naive!"
"You exposed your identity from the very beginning!"
