As night falls, candlelight dimly lights.
In the room, several scholars looked at each other.
These young gentlemen were all thinking about how to behave in the evening so that they could show their faces in front of their classmates.
It seems ridiculous, but it's human nature.
Whether you are Secret Sign in the world of martial arts or Imperial Court competing in the competition, if you want to be a blockbuster, you must have a draft in your mind.
As the saying goes, life is like a play. If you don't prepare the lyrics first and then go on stage, few will be able to perform normally.
Most of them just make jokes.
For those people watching the scenery on the stage, you don't know how much effort they put in behind the scenes and how many lines they recited.
But some things sound interesting, and I really want to encounter them...
But it's not fun at all!
According to classic stories and Strange Tales legends, there are often three or two scholars who stay in a ruined temple at night. They discover the tricks of ghosts and ghosts while talking and laughing, and chase them away with great righteousness.
These gentlemen also had the lyrics in mind, but as night fell, fear inevitably surged into their hearts.
The Young Master Wang swallowed his saliva and forced a smile, "Dear classmates, what happened today is quite interesting. I once heard a story..."
"Brother Wang, stop it!"
Another scholar smiled bitterly and said, "I also thought of a story, but it's really inappropriate to tell it now. Let's all be more alert later. No matter what we hear, don't go out."
"That makes sense!"
"If a gentleman does not stand behind a dangerous wall, he will be in trouble today..."
The other scholars nodded.
Li Yan leaned against the wall with his sword in hand and almost laughed out loud.
"Zhu Chen" glanced at him and suddenly said, "This Righteous Hero Li, we are all defenseless people. Since you are good at boxing and kicking, why don't you go out and watch the excitement?"
As he spoke, flying needles appeared in the sleeve robe in his hand.
He originally thought that Li Yan was a spy for that group of people, and he wanted to stay with him to fish out the people behind him to avoid bad things.
Unexpectedly, when it got dark and Li Yan was not in contact with anyone, I ran out of patience.
This is to force them to leave and solve the problem outside.
If you say you don't agree, you will immediately kill someone.
"That's right."
Unexpectedly, Li Yan also nodded in agreement, opened the door directly, flicked his cloak, and strode into the night.
"Zhu Chen" had a flash of surprise in his eyes.
The other scholars were anxious. The leader Young Master Wang said quickly, "Brother Zhu is confused. This man can still protect us if we stay here. How can we let him go?"
"That's right, call me back quickly."
"I didn't bring any guards when I came out this time..."
Others also started talking.
"Shut up, everyone!"
"Zhu Chen" didn't bother to perform any more. He turned over his sleeves and robe, revealing his calloused right hand, and his fingertips flicked rapidly.
Whoosh!
Tiny iron needles roared out.
Several young men tilted their heads and fell to the ground one after another.
There is an iron needle stuck in the back of the neck under the occipital bone.
Wind Mansion Acupoint, Silver Needle Acupoint Strike can cause coma, and if it is a little more severe, it can directly kill someone.
"Zhu Chen" did not make a killing move. It was not because he was soft-hearted, but because he had developed a habit since he was young and would calculate the gains and losses.
These young masters have a lot of influence in the Chengdu Prefecture family, so they can get away with cheating. If they want to kill them, they will inevitably attract revenge.
It's not that I'm afraid, it's that it's inappropriate.
Seeing that several people had completely fainted, "Zhu Chen" put away the iron needles one by one, and pulled off the outer Confucian robe, revealing the black night clothes underneath.
After closing the door, he exerted force with his feet, stepped on the corner of the wall, jumped into the air, landed on the tiles, and chased Li Yan in the direction he left as quietly as a civet cat.
However, after leaving Marquis Wu Shrine, "Zhu Chen" also stopped, twitching its ears slightly and looking around with a confused expression.
Just now I could still hear the footsteps of Li Yan,
Why did it disappear in the blink of an eye?
He became more and more vigilant. He took out a piece of black cloth from his arms, wrapped it around his body, and the figure disappeared instantly.
I saw a black shadow quickly moving towards the back mountain.
What he didn't realize was that in the darkness of the bamboo forest, there was light mist floating in the air. It was Li Yan that used Profound Water Escape.
The function of "Dragon Snake Plate" is to cover the aura and enhance water escape. It can be said that it is suitable for Li Yan.
With this thing, Li Yan is even more powerful.
"Shadow Escape?"
Watching the other party leave, Li Yan was thoughtful.
The other party's Shadow Escape is obviously not authentic, and also mixed with some illusions, a bit like Acrobatic Arts Sect.
This is the characteristic of a side sect master.
It is not as systematic as the orthodox Daoism and Dharma teachings, and all kinds of weird and weird spells are learned, mainly focusing on practicality.
Suddenly, his ears twitched and he looked at Marquis Wu Shrine.
There seemed to be some sound coming from the silent temple.
Li Yan Listened carefully, and suddenly heard gongs, berylliums, and suona playing music, as well as the old man's vicissitudes of lyrics. "Seven stars hang high in the sky, light up the altar to pray to God..."
This is <Seven Stars Lamp>, which tells the story of Zhuge Wuhou clicking Seven Stars Lamp Life Extension on Wuzhang Plains.
Li Yan After hearing this, doubts arose in his heart.
This kind of method does exist. In Daoism, there is a saying "Seven Stars Descend Child to Guard the Body", which is to gather the seven souls, reflect the Big Dipper, and forcibly extend life.
Its older origin is "Worship the Big Dipper".
Not to mention whether this has happened in history, even if it succeeds, <Heavenly Laws> will not tolerate it and will become a criminal.
Unless, there is Shu National Sacrifice Divine Artifact body protection.
Zhuge Wuhou has been dead for a long time, and no one knows the inside story. This is a secular god gathered by the people's incense. Most likely, the sounds of the opera were recorded during sacrifices and opera performances.
But it's so good, what kind of show is it...
Could it be caused by something?
Li Yan's heart moved, and he quickly found a nearby stream, pinched Mystical Gestures, held the hook in his hand, used Spirit Communication Art, and took a step forward.
Phew~
The wind roared around him, and the light and shadow in front of his eyes suddenly changed drastically.
Marquis Wu Shrine It's still there, but there's no one there. The green smoke of the incense rises above, vaguely forming a figure, wearing Daoist robes and a turban on his head, leaning over to play the piano.
Behind him, there were three vague figures, none other than Liu Guan Zhang.
It's not surprising to see what's happening in front of you.
Liu Gang Spirit Communication Art, passed down in the secret method, can see scenes in Daoist temples that ordinary people cannot see.
With the blessing of Jade Accessories, it can also be seen outside the temple.
What makes Li Yan strange is that when Marquis Wu plays the piano, the sound of singing and opera appears, and all the secular gods in the temple are also attracted.
Could this be the reason why "Lute Worm" can cause trouble?
Ding ding dong dong!
Just then, the sound of playing the piano sounded.
This sound was very strange. After hearing it, Li Yan felt confused and felt drowsy.
He felt a chill in his heart and quickly removed the spell.
This is the disadvantage of Spirit Communication Art.
Similar to Divine Soul's out-of-body experience, it is easy to be targeted by this type of magic.
Sure enough, after Divine Soul returned home, the groggy feeling disappeared instantly, but the sound of the piano in his ears was still there.
This is the sound heard by Ear Mystical Power.
Li Yan instantly understood that "Lute Worm"'s logic in selecting targets was to find people who were full of spirituality.
Ordinary people can't hear it and fall asleep soundly.
Those who are spiritual will be confused by the sound of the piano.
As long as you follow the deluded person, you can find "Lute Worm".
Swish!
At this moment, two figures appeared, one holding a silver gun and an iron net, the other holding a guqin. It was Demon Hunter Tang Ling and Lute Demon Pei Yu Fang.
Obviously, they also noticed something fishy.
"So that's it..."
Demon Hunter Tang Ling stood on the high wall, looked at Marquis Wu Shrine below, and said solemnly, "There must be something else in Marquis Wu Shrine, related to 'Lute Worm', so this thing can enter the temple and harm people."
Old Woman Pei Yu Fang said calmly, "It's useless even if you know it. There are so many Shu Han ancient artifacts collected here, and I don't have time to look for them carefully."
"Let's see who is chosen, and you will find it naturally if you follow it."
After saying that, his eyes turned cold, "I'll leave it to you to catch 'Lute Worm'. I'll kill everyone who gets in the way first!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the person jumped out.
She hugged the guqin and jumped off the wall. After landing, she put strength under her feet.
There was only a bang, and a pit appeared on the ground. He rose into the air again, made secrets in the air, and played hard on the guqin.
Buzz!
The strong wind suddenly rose, and the ripples visible to the naked eye rolled up the fallen leaves and swept them in all directions. The momentum was extremely shocking.
What a fierce old woman!
Li Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and backed away quickly.
The opponent's guqin is a bit like his Cloud Thunder Divine Drum, but it triggers Geng Metal Qi to attack.
Making such a movement is obviously to break the escape technique.
Sure enough, the fallen leaves were blown by the strong wind, and the sound of tearing cloth could be heard in the air, and "Zhu Chen" immediately appeared.
Li Yan was shocked when he saw it.
This guy is really cunning, his escape skills are obviously better, but he deliberately exposed his flaws and turned back after leaving.
He had just made some noise, and it was probably discovered by the other party.
In terms of experience in the arena, he is still lagging behind.
The "Zhu Chen" illusion was broken and his figure was exposed, but he didn't panic at all. He sneered and said, "Lute Demon Pei Yu Fang, what are you anxious about? There are still guests, don't let others take advantage of you."
As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his sleeves.
Phew!
The iron needle whistled and headed straight for Li Yan.
Lute Demon Pei Yu Fang looked up and saw the iron needle flying into the darkness of the woods, but was suddenly caught by a hand.
The mist dissipated, and Li Yan slowly revealed his figure.
"Sure, kid."
"Zhu Chen" murderous intent flashed in his eyes, but his face was full of smiles, "Even I was deceived. Where did Over the River Dragon come from? Do you dare to show off?"
"Easy to say, One-Foot Door Riddle."
Li Yan said calmly, "This is not an ordinary person, right? Why are you so secretive and afraid to see others?"
"Yi Jie Men" refers to the surname "Li".
Taken from the homophonic pronunciation of "one kick in the door and one kick outside the door".
If the other party provokes him to reveal his name, he will naturally also force him to reveal his true appearance.
"His name is 'Faceless Young Master'."
Old Woman Pei Yu Fang suddenly spoke and said calmly, "Chengdu Prefecture The famous Conman, Bee, Hemp, Swallow, Sparrow's four-door 'An Zuo Zi' has never had a face, and it's useless to force him."
"But you, Young Hero Li, arrived in Chengdu quietly. Should you return the things you took away?"
Hearing Old Woman's sarcasm, "Faceless Young Master" didn't care. Instead, he looked at Li Yan with interest, "What a Over the River Dragon."
"What kind of treasure did you take this Old Hag?"
"It's not something that belongs to me."
Pei Yu Fang said calmly, "You know Shu King Residence's 'Wish-Fulfilling Pearl', it's in the hands of this kid."
"Oh, no wonder you can hide it from me."
Faceless Young Master looked suddenly enlightened.
The two of them sang and harmonized, creating drama both inside and outside.
Faceless Young Master opened his mouth to provoke a fight between Li Yan and Pei Yu Fang. Lute Demon immediately said "Wish-Fulfilling Pearl".
She was not trying to help Shu King Residence, but she wanted to use the treasure to cause a fight between Li Yan and Faceless Young Master.
Unfortunately, Faceless Young Master was equally shrewd and shook his head directly. "Although 'Wish-Fulfilling Pearl' is good, it is very hot. I don't have the guts to go against Shu King Residence."
As he spoke, he held his hands to Li Yan and said, "Brother Li, this Old Hag is called Pei Yu Fang, nicknamed Lute Demon."
"I'm just trying to deceive people. She kills people like crazy. She never leaves anyone alive. She even took refuge in Shu King Residence. She's very troublesome."
"How about we cooperate and kill her first?"
Li Yan nodded and said, "Okay!"
"Do it!"
"Faceless Young Master" shouted in a low voice, and jumped out, but after taking two steps, he stopped again, turned to look at the motionless Li Yan, frowned and said, "Little brother, why don't you do it?"
Li Yan glanced at it and was too lazy to pay any more attention.
This guy is full of drama and can't believe a word he says.
If he takes action rashly, this guy might dare to attack you from behind, and then he can confidently call you stupid.
The so-called "Anzuozi" is the leader of scammers. According to Pei Yu Fang, this guy is the leader of all scammers Chengdu Prefecture.
Li Yan I believe he is the one who has seen a ghost.
"Hmph!"
Old Woman Pei Yu Fang also sneered, "'Faceless Young Master', don't underestimate this Young Hero Li. The person who became famous in Ezhou is still Living Underworld Messenger."
"When the Yin soldiers come out, we will all die!"
"Oh."
Hearing this, "Faceless Young Master" finally became vigilant, took a few steps back, and said calmly, "Little brother, it's just a grab, it's not worth wasting Celestial Decree."
While they were talking, the three of them were standing in a triangle, wary of each other.
Li Yan's Celestial Decree has been consumed long ago, but he won't say anything, otherwise he will be besieged by two masters.
As the saying goes, too much talk leads to mistakes, so he simply said nothing and looked at Demon Hunter Tang Ling standing on the wall.
Tang Ling didn't seem to hear them at all, he just stared at the yard, as if waiting for something.
I don't know what kind of tricks that "Lute Worm" did. A few people made such a big movement that all the temple priests and little Daoist boys in the temple fell asleep like dead pigs.
"Coming!"
Demon Hunter Tang Ling suddenly spoke.
I saw that at Wing Room where those scholars were, the door creaked open and a scholar came out with dull eyes.
It is that Young Master Wang.
Pei Yu Fang glanced lightly and said mockingly, "Right Provincial Administration Commissioner Office Wang Ding's son, Faceless Young Master, you have to bear the blame."
"Faceless Young Master" sneered and said, "These scholars are stupid themselves, what does it have to do with me? They really mean two things, it's just nonsense."
It can be seen that these two people are not dealing with each other in the first place.
Demon Hunter Tang Ling ignored the bickering between the two and saw Young Master Wang opening the door in a daze and leaving Marquis Wu Shrine, and immediately followed him.
Li Yan The three of them followed closely, but they were wary of each other.
Leaving Marquis Wu Shrine, Young Master Wang was getting faster and faster, as if it was completely fascinated, stumbling towards the mountains behind.
Walking through the woods all the way, my face was covered with bloodstains swept by dead branches.
Finally, he came to a dilapidated tomb, rolled his eyes, and fell straight to the ground.
Others also opened their eyes wide.
But seeing the soil on the side of the grave mound loosening, Yin Wind suddenly rose, fallen leaves flew around, and a dark thing came out.
Its body is like a snake, but it has an insect carapace, divided into segments like a centipede.
The head is somewhat like a horse's face, elongated and covered with red mane, and has insect mouthparts.
It's not a beast, it's a zerg!
