Curse?
The area of decay on Lu Queyi's cheek was growing larger, with fat maggots beginning to crawl in and out. Flesh was being gnawed by the maggots, and beneath the thin layer of skin, bones were visible.
Looking up at the clear sky, Zushi was right in front of him. "Junior lacks a sect leader, Lu Queyi, please descend for Zushi!"
Lu Queyi formed a hand seal and began to chant a spell. A mysterious power descended from the heavens, a misty aura that seemed to carry the scent of incense ash.
Descend? How dare you!
A triangular banner appeared in the void, swirling with a chilling wind that captured the fragrant breeze within it.
A black BMW pulled up in front of Lu Queyi, and the door opened slowly as Zuo Ci emerged from the vehicle.
With a snap, he lit a cigarette in front of Lu Queyi. Looking at the pitiful figure before him, he chuckled, "Where is Shi Yan's Zhen Wu? Don't make me ask twice!"
Hehe!
Lu Queyi grinned savagely. "If I die, you will never find Zhen Wu. You'll just have to watch Guan Jintang become Shi Sha!"
Is that so?
Zuo Ci squinted and smiled. "How could I possibly let you die? The Yansheng Technique consists of four categories: Gui Shen Yan, Beast Repulsion, Cao Mu Yan, and Death Suppression. Among them, using Gui Shen Yan, Beast Repulsion, or Cao Mu Yan will result in the Shaman's death and the Yan Shu breaking. However, Death Suppression is the only method where even if the Shaman dies, the Yan Shu won't break."
This kind of Yan Shu can only be undone if Zhen Wu is destroyed or if the Yan Shu stands firm. Do you think I don't know that?
"Who exactly are you?" Lu Queyi stared intently at Zuo Ci.
"You shouldn't know these things. Only an elder with a missing limb would have the qualifications to know such secrets!"
"Who I am is not something you need to know!"
Zuo Ci pulled out a deep brown pill from his pocket, pinching it between his fingers, then reached out to pry open Lu Queyi's mouth.
This old ghost is quite stubborn, Zuo Ci thought, as he found Lu Queyi's jaw tightly clenched, refusing to let him push the pill into his mouth.
Furrowing his brow, Zuo Ci realized that this Old Guy had some grit. He tightened his fist and delivered a heavy punch to Lu Queyi's mouth, causing teeth to shatter and blood to splatter.
"You’re forcing me to get rough!"
Zuo Ci managed to slip the pill through the gap in Lu Queyi's broken teeth and squinted with a smile. "Now that’s more like it!"
"What did you make me swallow?" Lu Queyi stared wide-eyed, fear evident in his gaze as he looked at Zuo Ci.
"Nothing much, just a painkiller!" Zuo Ci replied with a grin.
Lu Queyi spoke in a low voice, "Since you know Shi Yan is Death Suppression, even if you kill me, Zhen Wu won’t find you. No matter how powerful your Shen Tong is, you still can’t escape this fate!"
"Calm down, calm down!" Zuo Ci chuckled. "Do you know about Yao Jiang?"
Lu Queyi's face turned pale instantly.
"The Xiang Tou Shu from Southeast Asia?"
Xiang Tou Shu mainly consists of three types: Yao Jiang, Feijiang, and Gui Jiang. As for Animal Sorcery, there are variations like Split Head Descending, Lemon Jinx, and Glass Descending; these are all derived from the three main types. Among them, Yao Jiang is the first step that every Xiang Tou master must learn.
It is very similar to the practice of Gu in our Miaojiang region. The Miao Girls there use the most poisonous creatures—snakes, centipedes, venomous spiders, and toads—placing them all in a jar together. They let them attack and kill each other until they all perish. Once dried and ground into powder, this becomes what is known as Gu Poison.
Applying Gu Poison on someone can cause madness or unbearable physical pain leading to death. Yao Jiang works similarly; indigenous women in Nanyang often use it against unfaithful lovers to prevent them from deceiving their feelings or breaking promises of marriage. So before the partner leaves, they would lace their food with the drug, ensuring they consume it unknowingly.
If the other party returns as promised, the indigenous woman will give him the antidote to take. However, if he changes his mind and breaks the agreement, the Xiang Tou poison will take effect, causing his body to rot and decay until death. As a result, some people also use the Xiang Tou poison to threaten and control others, ensuring complete obedience.
