At the moment when the wind suddenly started to blow behind me, a loud noise suddenly came from the direction of the roof, and a murderous sword energy descended from the sky and swept past my back with the force of splitting Mount Hua.
Before the fishy blood had time to splash on the back of my clothes, I felt two strong gusts of wind flying up to the left and right behind me.
In a blink of an eye, Ye Jin pulled me up from behind: "Are you okay?"
"I'm poisoned, hurry up and get the antidote." It was only then that I saw that the fake monk who had just stood behind me had been cut in half by Ye Jin's knife.
Ye Jin dug out a few medicine bottles from the corpse and asked, "Which one is it?"
"How should I know? Let's try them one by one!" I answered subconsciously, and Zhihui said weakly: "Show it to me, I know a little about pharmacology."
Ye Jin quickly stuffed the bottle into Zhi Hui's hands, but I said to Ye Jin at this time: "Old Ye, use Luosha to cut open the magic box, quickly."
Ye Jin reached out and picked up Luosha, and slashed it fiercely along the gap under the lid. After two sounds of springs breaking, the magic box automatically popped open. When I saw the scene inside the magic box, I was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud: "So that's how it is. Damn, we were really fooled."
There was no mechanism in the magic box, just an ordinary round lock and a remote control rotating device. What allowed the ghosts to find us was not some secret method that could tear open space, but a talisman attached to the bottom of the magic box - the ghosts just followed the talisman's lead to find us.
All the secrets should be in the undercover agent who was killed by Ye Jin. It was he who used the remote control to rotate the two magic boxes at the same time; it was he who gave us the illusion that the ghost was nearby; it was he who quietly covered the ghost and even brought the ghost near us without us noticing.
Under the guise of the Magic Box Legend, someone used a very simple scheme to trick us all. I have to say that the person who set up the scheme was very clever.
After seeing the magic box, Zhi was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot: "I... I actually..."
Ye Jin quickly reached out and pressed the opponent's acupuncture points, and put the medicine into Zhihui's mouth: "Where is the antidote? Which one is the antidote?"
Zhihui pointed to one of the medicine bottles with a shaking hand, and Ye Jin poured out two pills and threw them into my mouth: "Zhaozi, what should we do now?"
I swallowed the pill with difficulty. "Go back and drive back to the manor immediately. I'll go check on Lu Xiaoying first."
The few remaining monks and I supported each other and got into the car, and immediately entered Guazi'er's consciousness through telepathy.
I don’t know what happened to Lu Xiaoying after I left, but Lu Xiaoying was clearly in control of the situation. Sun Yue had already calmly sat opposite Lu Xiaoying and said, “Sister Lu, what do you think we should do now?”
Lu Xiaoying said: "The ghosts that appeared this time are omnipresent. Any gap may become a breakthrough for the other party to attack us. What we can do now is to defend as much as possible."
Nangong Ling sneered, "You've already had all the cracks in this room sealed up. How else do you want to defend yourself?"
I asked Guazi to turn his head and look around, only to find that all the gaps in the room had been pasted with talismans, and some places were even sealed with tape.
Lu Xiaoying said calmly: "We didn't seal all the gaps, such as the scabbard, the quiver..."
Nangong Ling said coldly: "I don't believe that a ghost can get out of the scabbard."
Lu Xiaoying shook his head and said, "Since you don't believe it, let's wait and see!"
"Lingling, shut up!" Sun Yue glared at Nangong Ling fiercely, "Sister Lu, have you figured out something?"
Lu Xiaoying suddenly turned around and pointed at a warlock leaning against the door: "There is death energy on him. He will definitely be the next to die."
The man turned pale with fear: "No, no... don't talk nonsense!"
Lu Xiaoying said coldly: "Actually, you are already dead, but you don't know it yet, right?"
As soon as Lu Xiaoying finished speaking, the warlocks around the man drew their swords and surrounded him.
"Lu Xiaoying!" the man roared, "I have no grudge against you, why are you trying to harm me?"
Nangong Ling said in a deep voice: "Lu Xiaoying, what is your intention in making such a lie? Since we started working together, you have made three consecutive plans and made three consecutive mistakes, causing us to lose many masters. Even the Ice and Snow Twins were defeated by you. Are you trying to wipe us out step by step?"
Lu Xiaoying said coldly: "If you insist on thinking this way, I can't help it. Anyone with eyes can see that my arrangement has saved many lives. On the contrary, you have repeatedly questioned my decision, how much loss have you caused us? I think you are the one who wants to kill all the people in Xuanjing Division, right?"
"Bullshit!" Nangong Ling was so angry that her face turned red.
"Shut up!" Sun Yue shouted, "Lingling, since you don't believe Lu Meizi's calculations, why don't you go and check for yourself to see if he's alive. Go!"
Sun Yue's words clearly contained some reprimands, and Nangong Ling's expression became even uglier. After hesitating for a long time, she said, "Since my sister asked me to go, I'll take a look."
When Nangong Ling walked towards the other person, the nearby sorcerers simultaneously picked up their weapons and approached the person. The sorcerer named by Lu Xiaoying said angrily: "Miss Nangong, you can investigate. I want to see what other methods Lu Xiaoying has to deceive people!"
Nangong Ling walked up to him, carefully stretched out her hand, touched his neck, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Lu Xiaoying, I have confirmed that he is still alive, what do you say?"
When Nangong Ling turned around to talk to Lu Xiaoying, all the weapons in the hands of the warlocks were pointed in the direction of Nangong Ling.
“What are you doing…” Nangong Ling had just shouted half a sentence when she suddenly shuddered and her body suddenly tensed up.
Through Guazi'er's perspective, I saw from the gap in the crowd that two lines of blood suddenly seeped out of the corners of the eyes of the sorcerer behind Nangong Ling. The bloodless fingers moved along Nangong Ling's back to her shoulders and pressed down on her shoulders.
Nangong Ling suddenly turned around and sprinkled a handful of powder on the man, and then quickly retreated to a distance. As soon as the poison Nangong Ling sprinkled came into contact with the corpse, a layer of purple flames was set off on the other person.
In just a blink of an eye, the strange purple fire covered the man's head like flowing water, and in just a few seconds, the man was burned into a curled up ball of fire.
Nangong Ling's poison was indeed overbearing. It pulled at the opponent's limbs, leaving her no way to escape. She could only curl up on the ground and slowly burn to death. If the opponent was a living person, she would only be able to scream and wait for death.
Sun Yue said sternly: "Throw him out, quickly!"
Several sorcerers holding long-handled weapons rushed over at the same time, using their weapons to pick up the corpse on the ground and throw it out of the window. It was not until the corpse fell to the ground that the smell of burnt human flesh wafted out from the window.
Sun Yue said sternly: "Everyone, throw your sheathed weapons outside..."
"Wait a minute!" Lu Xiaoying said, "I didn't finish what I said just now. The ghost can appear not only in weapons and quivers, but also here..."
While Lu Xiaoying was talking, he pointed at his sleeves. Nangong Ling was shocked and said, "You mean ghosts can get out of our sleeves? You don't want us to take off all our clothes, do you?"
Lu Xiaoying's suggestion was indeed not appropriate. Originally, only women entered the manor, and they naturally had no scruples; since Sun Xiaomei and the others joined, there were both men and women in the manor, and no one could accept them staying together without any hindrance.
Lu Xiaoying shook his head and said, "I don't want to either. But at this point, we can only choose whether to slowly consume the enemy with human lives, or wait and find a way to continue the defense."
Sun Yue hesitated for a moment and said, "Chen Sheng, take all the men and a magic box to another room. Contact me immediately if anything happens."
The warlock whose name was called by Sun Yue nodded, pushed open the door with more than half of his men, and disappeared into the night.
It wasn't until the other party walked away that Lu Xiaoying said, "Let's get started!"
Sun Yue hesitated for only a moment before unbuttoning her clothes and throwing them out of the window one by one. After a while...
I originally wanted to control Guazi to lower his head, but Guazi didn't listen to me this time. He not only ran around the room happily, but also sniffed around...
Nangong Ling covered her body with her hands and screamed, "Lu Xiaoying, take care of your dog!"
Lu Xiaoying said: "It's just a dog, why are you so nervous? Can she take a picture of you with a camera?"
Little White Sugar seemed to feel something was wrong, and stretched out his hand to call out to Guazier, "Guazier, come back soon."
"Oh my god!" When Guazi'er suddenly turned his head towards Lu Xiaoying and the others, I couldn't close my eyes in time, so I shouted directly in Guazi'er's consciousness. Guazi'er also let out a scream like a wolf howl.
Just as I was at a loss, Guazi'er turned around and rushed into the crowd of people in Xuanjing Division, which immediately caused a burst of screams. Someone even raised his foot to kick Guazi'er. After the latter nimbly dodged the kicking jade feet, he suddenly stopped and barked at Hua Yanyu in the corner.
Hua Yanyu sitting in the corner was as beautiful as an oil painting, without a single flaw to be found.
My eyes were just drawn to Hua Yanyu when I heard Guan Qingyan shouting, "God of Wealth, break the delusion, break it for me!"
Before I could react, I saw a layer of dreamlike ripples in the air in front of Hua Yanyu. In the blink of an eye, the ripples dissipated, and a set of elegant clothes suddenly appeared on Hua Yanyu's body.
It was only then that I realized that Hua Yanyu was the only neatly dressed person in the room. (To be continued)
