Chapter 91: The Flying Dragon Bone-Eroding Lantern Festival In order to clean up the remains of the rat demon, Lingxiang planned to set up a bone-eroding formation in the courtyard. Any monster with some cultivation will become a disaster if no one takes care of its body after death. Moreover, the monster this time is a rat. If it is not properly dealt with, it may turn into a plague. At this time, Long Qi was struggling to gather the scattered corpses of the rat demon together. He glanced into the inner room and couldn't help but complain in his heart. Although they were also injured, Lingxiang let Rendong have a good rest and even took care of him personally. Why did she have to do the hard work here? Xinyi saw it and laughed softly. After all, Long Qi was still a young boy who had no idea about love affairs. She didn't want to break the window paper, but he was always jealous. Why bother? But he himself seemed unaware that there was also a layer of window paper between him and Maidong. Perhaps this is why those involved are often confused, while bystanders can see things more clearly. The demon poison that Jindong was infected with was not overbearing, but the rat demon poison was a bit troublesome. Lingxiang's detoxification pill cleared up 70% of the demon poison, but rats were mostly ominous. If you are not careful, there may be changes in the future. But she didn't have any suitable pills on her now, and the pills she had made before were not suitable for Rendong's injuries. The only thing she could do now was to use acupuncture to calm her down, and then make plans after returning to Xianyunju. Acupuncture, although seemingly just inserting needles into acupuncture points, is actually extremely laborious. Moreover, in the case of Honeysuckle, Lingxiang is also needed to inject spiritual power into the silver needles and send them into the body to protect the inside from ominous erosion. After a cup of tea, Lingxiang's clothes were soaked with sweat after some lifting, inserting and twisting. She felt that she had not done this kind of thing for a long time and was no longer accustomed to it.
She thought the yard was almost cleaned up, so she rested for a while before getting up and leaving the house. The corpses in the yard were gathered together. Lingxiang looked up and saw that the sun was still bright. If it was any later, it would be too late. She quickly took out a porcelain bottle from her Qiankun bag, poured some medicine powder into her hands, twisted her fingers, chanted something, and then sprinkled the medicine powder into the sky. Long Qi felt that Ling Xiang's behavior was just like those wandering Taoist priests. When he was about to laugh, he saw that the medicinal powder scattered in the air actually emitted colorful light and fell down, floating around the piles of rat demon corpses. In a moment, a magic circle appeared on the ground. This porcelain bottle is naturally not an ordinary porcelain bottle. It looks like ordinary celadon, but it is actually carved from unicorn bones. The medicinal powder sprinkled on it is made by Lingxiang grinding the stone milk collected from the Supreme Sect and mixing it with dragon bone powder. It can not only drive away evil spirits and avoid disasters, but also cure diseases and save lives. At the end of the day, golden light sprinkled in the courtyard, and the Bone-Erosion Array immediately emitted a dazzling golden light, but the corpses in the array ignited green flames. Within an incense stick of time, the flesh of the monsters was burned until only bones were left, and then the flames suddenly turned purple and attached to the monster bones. Xinyi was very surprised when she saw it. She had heard of Samadhi Fire when she was a child. It was the transformation of the primordial spirit, primordial energy and primordial essence of those who practice Taoism. Could this be that thing? Thinking of this, he asked, and Lingxiang smiled softly: "It's almost the same, but this is not the fire of Samadhi, but dragon fire. Since ancient times, most dragons dominate earth and water, and there are very few dragons that dominate fire. The fire controlled by this kind of dragon can even burn the bones of gods, and the substance mixed in this medicine powder is the bone powder of this kind of dragon. The Samadhi of a person comes from the heart and kidneys, but this kind of dragon fire is born from the bones. Although it is not as good as the Samadhi fire, it is an excellent way to clean up such filthy things." Lingxiang pointed at the bone-eroding formation and Xinyi looked over, only to see that the purple flames were not burning the monster bones, but instead seemed to be gnawing at them. The monster bones were being consumed bit by bit by the dragon fire. No wonder it was a bone-eroding array, turns out this is what it is! The purple flames in the formation gnawed at the monster bones, and wherever it passed, it left a trail of ashes. Just as the last monster bone was burned away, the flames in the formation suddenly turned golden, the color of sunset, rising up like a flying dragon, and then dissipated in an instant. Looking again, the bone-eating formation and the ashes of the monster corpses were all gone. And just as the golden dragon fire dissipated, the red sun in the sky also set. This scene completely stunned Long Qi and Xin Yi. They had never expected that Taoist magic could be so magnificent. There were also some strange techniques in the world of exorcism, and although they were from the same sect as Taoism, they were not as magnificent as this. Lingxiang glanced at the two of them, feeling extremely proud. She pretended to pat the non-existent medicinal powder on her hands, and turned around and walked into the house in a cool manner: It's time to give Jindong the injection. …… The sky finally darkened and the colorful lights in front of each house were lit. The banks of the Guyang River are bustling with activity. The annual lantern festival is held during this period. The government posts lantern riddles, which attract many people to gather here. If you can guess one or two of the riddles correctly, you may even be able to buy a new set of clothes for your family. Of course, there are also many talented men and beautiful women among them. Lantern Festivals have been spreading stories since ancient times, and most of the boudoir storybooks will write these stories in a vivid and touching way. What are the sayings like "Who can sit idle when seeing the moon? Who can't come when hearing the lanterns?" What are the sayings like "The man on the street is like jade, and the young man is unparalleled in the world?" or "The east wind blows thousands of flowers at night, and the BMW and carved carriages fill the road with fragrance." Which of them would not make the young ladies' hearts flutter? Maidong was deeply influenced by such storybooks. He would always say something like this and that in the storybooks, and he would only dream that the "red leaves delivering letters" drama could be realized in himself. Although Lingxiang doesn't really like such clichés and absurdities, she still has to go to the Lantern Festival. Even though many of the riddles are extremely vulgar, she doesn't mind getting a few more prizes. Moreover, it is said that the city lord has specially set up a big prize in the last round of the Lantern Festival this year. I heard that it seems to be a large sum of silver. Lingxiang thought, if she can win a hundred or eighty taels of silver in the last prize, wouldn’t it save her a lot of effort in the future? Even now, she doesn't have any expenses to pay for in Xianyunju, as her fellow brothers in the sect have taken care of them for her, but who would complain about having too much money, right?
Once you have money, you can purchase many ready-made rare and exotic herbs, and save yourself the trouble of taking care of them at Qingwei Peak like taking care of your ancestors. Lingxiang originally wanted to bring Rendong out with her. After all, he looked like a well-educated wealthy man, and it should be a piece of cake for him to deal with riddles of this level. However, after the incident with the rat demon, she had to let him stay in Youranju to recuperate for a while. Then I had to settle for the next best thing and take Xinyi with me. After all, Xinyi looked relatively stable. She must have read a lot of books when she was young, so her mind must be very quick. But things went against her wishes, and she finally brought Long Qi out. Looking at him with a silly smile, Lingxiang was filled with melancholy - it seemed that this last prize was hopeless...
