Chapter 107: One Minute Limit

Du E once said to Wu Xian.

She had a ghost-raising jar that could summon the little ghosts that had not yet transformed themselves into haunted spirits, so Wu Xian guessed that she would use a similar method to knock over the food box.

Unexpectedly, Du E actually took out a straw man.

She held the straw man in both hands, put it in the same posture as Liu Xiucai, and then recited a silent spell.

"Let's move forward together, let's go!"

This is the magic weapon she used to bring into the blessed land.

Straw man: A straw man woven with moldy broom grass. You can control the other party's movements by casting a spell after the corresponding posture. The dry grass is easy to break and will be useless once it breaks.

After completing the spell-casting ceremony.

Du E just stared at Liu Xiucai.

Liu Xiucai would reach into the food box from time to time and grab a big, lively cockroach. Suddenly, a cockroach climbed onto Liu Xiucai's hand. He subconsciously shook his hand, and Du E quickly shook the straw man's arm.

Wow!
Liu Xiucai's hand seemed to cramp, and he suddenly twitched, sending the food box flying. Dozens of big, energetic cockroaches flew everywhere in an instant.

Jiang Xianglan's face turned pale instantly and she felt goose bumps all over her body, but Du E had a smile of enjoyment on her face.

Looking at the cockroaches flying all over the sky, Liu Xiucai suddenly became anxious.

In this desolate place, only in the Liu family mansion can you find so many delicious big cockroaches.

So he didn't bother to stare at Wu Xian and others, and immediately jumped up from his seat, opened his mouth wide, and spit out his bright red tongue like lightning, recovering the lost cockroach at an extremely amazing speed.

While he turned around to catch cockroaches, Wu Xian quickly grabbed two short notes from Jiang Xianglan's desk, put one on his own desk, and threw the other to Du E.

Wow!
It didn't take long for Liu Xiucai to catch the last cockroach.

He turned around suddenly and saw Wu Xian and the other two sitting upright, as if nothing had happened.

Liu Xiucai was suspicious. He came back and sat down, feeling that something was wrong.

Wu Xian looked at Liu Xiucai's fat body and felt a little surprised. He was shocked by the speed and strength displayed by this fat guy just now. This was something that none of the ghosts he had seen before could do.

"Is it because its level is higher, or is it because the different types of evil spirits have different abilities..."

In order not to arouse suspicion.

Wu Xian waited for a while before he stood up and handed the short essay written by Jiang Xianglan to Liu Xiucai.

Liu Xiucai read with trembling hands and nodded after a moment.

"Very good, you have passed this assignment. I will give you half a cup of tea to choose a birthday gift."

Wu Xian agreed with a smile.

After turning around, a sneer appeared on his face.

"Half a cup of tea... one minute is enough!"

Wu Xian walked to the compartment, estimated the distance, and came to the oil pan that had scalded Zhao Xiaofu before. At this time, the oil pan was still as calm as water.

After scalding Zhao Xiaofu, the illusion reappeared on its own.

Wu Xian placed his hands on the oil pan.

"Three, two, one...start!"

Swish!
Wu Xian has unlocked the supernatural power of man - hard qigong!
A minute is very short, and it can pass by just by watching a video or reading a few pages of a novel.

But a lot of things can be done in one minute. Even ordinary people can run two or three hundred meters in one minute!
Wu Xian suddenly grabbed the handle of the oil pan, the illusion dissipated, and sharp spikes emerged from the handle, but these spikes could not even pierce Wu Xian's skin.

Fortunately, there are these spikes, otherwise the temperature of the iron pot handle would have burned Wu Xian's hand over a large area. After all, hard qigong is only hard, but it has no ability to defend against high temperatures.

Wu Xian carried the boiling oil pan and walked quickly to the next compartment.

There was a pit inside the compartment, with many ropes scattered in the pit. A string of bone beads was at the bottom of the pit, and its outline was barely visible.

Wu Xian held a pot full of hot oil and placed the iron pot upside down on the pit!
Then Wu Xian quickly ran to the next compartment, jumped into the narrow cabinet, and took out the longevity peaches inside.

The illusion of the curtain of the small cabinet disappeared, revealing a shiny steel guillotine!

Swish!
The guillotine fell suddenly.

A normal person would have been cut in half, but the guillotine was bounced by Wu Xian's flesh and blood, and Wu Xian was cut out with a swish. He only felt that he was pinched by something and did not even feel the pain.

After doing all this.

Wu Xian was panting heavily.

There were only a few seconds left, but it was not enough for him to get the last birthday gift.

After one minute was up, Wu Xian suddenly felt weak, as if he had just donated blood and forced himself into sage mode at night.

"Hard Qigong consumes Qi and blood, so it's normal to have such a reaction. No wonder the prerequisite for using it next time is to keep your body in good condition. If it consumes Qi like this again, I'm afraid I will die directly."

"I have already received three birthday gifts. Do you want to continue..."

While hesitating, Wu Xian saw a pair of cold gazes. Liu Xiucai was sitting on a chair, staring at him with eyes that seemed to be spitting fire.

Although Wu Xian did not violate the rules and less than half a cup of tea had passed, he still angered Liu Xiucai by taking three birthday gifts at once.

Since he is angry.

Wu Xian didn't mind making him angrier.

Half a cup of tea hasn't even arrived yet, so take this time to get the last birthday gift.

Wu Xianxian took Zhao Xiaofu's body down, then clasped his hands together and bowed slightly.

"excuse me."

He took off Zhao Xiaofu's coat, tore it into long strips, and tied them together to form a long rope. He threw one end of the rope over the beam, held one end of the rope with each hand, and rubbed it against the beam continuously.

In this way, Wu Xian doesn't need to take the risk of stepping on the stool, and he can take the amulet down safely.

Not long after.

The amulet fell into Wu Xian's hands.

Then Wu Xian lifted the lid of the oil pan, and various scalded snakes and insects were already floating inside. Wu Xian moved a stool over and used the stool legs to pull the beads and gold hairpins out of the oil pan.

At this point, the remaining four birthday gifts all fell into Wu Xian's hands. He was about to go to the bookshelf to read a book like Su Mi did, when he was stopped by Liu Xiucai.

"Wait, I suspect you are cheating."

Liu Xiucai had already been suspicious about the time when the food box was overturned. Now, seeing Wu Xian taking four birthday gifts in one breath, he began to get angry with Wu Xian.

When Jiang Xianglan heard the word cheating, her heart rose to her throat.

Wu Xianze was not at all flustered. He had already expected this result when he saw the look in Liu Xiucai's eyes.

"Do you have any evidence that I cheated? Besides, your mission was to help the young master cheat, so why are you so strict with us?"

Mr. Liu grinned grimly.

"Cheating is the privilege of the young master. How can you be qualified to cheat? Besides, it's very easy to know whether you are cheating or not... Write another one for me!"

When Wu Xian made this plan, he had already thought that taking multiple birthday gifts at once might cause additional reactions from Liu Xiucai, so this was not a sudden situation for him at all, so Wu Xian said with a smile.

"Okay!"

　The inspiration for the straw man curse comes from a certain plot in "Uncle Zombie". I wanted to find out the source, but after searching for a long time, I couldn't find out what the straw man curse was called.
