Chapter 20 Wang Yexian and Palm Techniques
It was already dark, and since Wuding River was blocked by the Demon Suppressing Division, Xie Que had nothing to do.
But Xie Que will not be idle.
According to Wang Cuiyu’s memory, it was learned that his family lived in the north of Wangjiazhuang.
The family owns hundreds of acres of fertile land and is considered a wealthy family.
Otherwise, Wang Cuiyu would not be willing to endure this incompetent husband.
Xie Que's body flashed like a vigorous cheetah in this dark night.
He jumped into the yard of Wang Ning's house. It was almost midnight, he couldn't see his fingers, and he was not afraid of being seen.
According to Mu Yongquan, after the spirit loses its physical body, even if it possesses others, its strength is comparable to that of the incoming warriors.
But the specific strength depends on the type of the monster before it transformed, as well as the strength of the spells mastered by the opponent.
Xie Que judged from the results of last night's battle that there were several techniques that the mule spirit could master.
One is the black mist that can blind the opponent, the other is the roar that can make the opponent lose consciousness in an instant, and the last one is the hair that can harden the whole body.
However, the opponent's attack method is single and cannot cause much harm to himself.
This is one of the reasons why Xie Que came here confidently.
With Wang Cuiyu's memory, Xie Que knew the layout of the courtyard very well.
Knowing that this place was just a warehouse for storing sundries, Xie Que walked around and finally came to a red brick shrine.
What is enshrined among them is the "Songzigong" whom the Wang family and his son spent a lot of money to invite.
According to Xie Que's expectation, this mule spirit got into the statue after he was able to leave his body. Not only did he eat and drink the master's offerings every day, he even defiled the wives and daughters.
The moment Xie Que walked into the shrine, what he saw was the fragments of the statues all over the ground, as well as the violent storm after being destroyed.
The sacred card was broken into two pieces and thrown to the ground casually.
Seeing this, Xie Que knew that Mule Jing would not stay here at this moment.
After the Yin spirit leaves the body, if there is no physical body for it to live in, it simply exists among dead things, and it is necessary to smoke incense to maintain the Yin spirit's immortality.
Otherwise, the mule spirit would not need to rely on the guise of a god statue to sneak into other people's homes and do evil.
Xie Que had already expected this scene. Although Jinmen City was not the capital of the country, it had a strong martial arts spirit and the members of the Demon Suppression Division were all extremely tough. The evil heretics would have shot each other to change places.
Xie Que walked a few steps outside and found that Wang Ning and his wife were dead. His father Wang Yexian was the only living person in the family, and he might be the only target possessed by the mule spirit.
Without any warning, just as Xie Que was about to walk towards Wang Yexian's room, a sound pierced through the air suddenly made Xie Que's hair stand on end.
He quickly turned around and raised his left arm, barely able to avoid the sudden palm.
"Evil beast, where have you taken my son?" Xie Que put down his hand and realized that the person in front of him was Wang Yexian, whom he was just looking for.
Wang Yexian's figure is tall and straight, and he doesn't look like an old man in his seventies at all.
Xie Que frowned. In his memory, Wang Yexian's image was not like this.
Although Wang Yexian was a warrior, he was old and frail, and he also showed a rickety appearance in Wang Cuiyu's memory.
It's not like he is as old and strong as he is now.
Possessed by a mule spirit? An idea suddenly occurred in Xie Que's mind.
But the other party didn't have the same black hair as yesterday, which made Xie Que a little unsure.
Xie Que quickly rose up, clenched his left hand into a fist and exerted force suddenly.
Wang Yexian also raised his hand and struck out with his palm, like a bamboo being broken, a "click" sound suddenly sounded.
Xie Que found that the strength in his fist was easily neutralized by the opponent, and his left fist changed its angle as if it turned automatically and slid down.
Weird martial arts.
This was also Xie Que's first time competing with others in martial arts, and he was immediately interested.
After he threw a few more punches, he found that he was easily dodged by Wang Yexian using a unique force-relieving technique, and he couldn't help but become interested.
As a golden entry, martial arts prodigy brings more to Xie Que than a simple line of words on the Death Trial Diagram can describe.
After several fights, he had figured out the secret of Wang Yexian's palm.
As long as they fight for a few more moments, he will be able to crack it.
But at this moment, Wang Yexian suddenly stepped back.
Wang Yexian's face was a bit cold and he said: "You are not that evil god, why do you come to my house?"
Xie Que, who had been reminiscing about the martial arts moves, suddenly came to his senses. After secretly cursing himself for forgetting the real deal, he came to his senses.
From the previous confrontation, he had judged that the opponent was most likely not transformed into a mule spirit.
Otherwise, the opponent will not rely solely on martial arts to fight against him.
"You look familiar... Are you Mr. Yuan's little water ghost?" Wang Yexian suddenly recognized Xie Que.
Xie Cao nodded.
Wang Yexian sighed: "It seems that I have already known about my murder of my daughter-in-law."
Xie Que knew that it was wrong for the other party to kill Wang Cuiyu, but he was blinded by the spirit and that led to such a tragic incident.
After all, in this era, women's status was not high. Once they were found stealing someone, throwing them into the river like Wang Cuiyu could only be considered a good thing.
More cruel tortures such as being immersed in pig cages and riding iron horses are inhumane.
Xie Que also looked serious: "Do you know where the mule spirit has gone?"
Wang Yexian was a little confused and said: "Mule spirit?"
Only then did Xie Que realize that Wang Yexian might have known that this statue was responsible for the evil, but he didn't know its true identity either.
"It's what's hidden in the statue." Xie Que raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the shrine.
Wang Yexian also reacted and shook his head: "I don't know."
He gritted his teeth again and said, "Excuse me, sir, do you know where my son is?"
Xie Que sighed and told Wang Yexian a series of things that happened last night, as well as some of the things in Wang Cuiyu's memory.
After listening to this, Wang Yexian seemed to have become much older, and his tall body collapsed in an instant.
He squatted on the ground, looking a little confused: "Is that so?"
Wang Yexian was silent for a long time. After all, not everyone can afford the pain of losing a child in old age.
Xie Que also had a guilty look on his face. If he hadn't used too much force, Wang Ning would have been able to survive after the mule spirit's spirit escaped.
"Uncle Wang, I..." Xie Que tried to apologize, but nothing came out.
"That's all." Wang Yexian smiled bitterly and stood up, his figure had become rickety, like a dying person.
"According to what you said, if it weren't for you, my son would still be helping the spirit to do evil." Wang Yexian said in a low voice: "And even if you drive away the spirit of the spirit, Wang Ning's body has been drained of yang energy by the spirit. It’s also full of life.”
He raised his hand, with a look of loneliness on his face: "It's just that my son usually has no wandering thoughts, but the martial arts passed down in our family are about to be cut off from us."
Xie Que blinked and suddenly said: "If the senior doesn't dislike it, the junior is willing to pass on the martial arts to the senior."
