Oops, Ling'er said to herself and dodged immediately.
Jianxin was no pushover either, he raised his hand and a sword light flashed, but to Ling'er's surprise, Jianxin's attack was actually blocked by Mo Lingling.
At this moment, Jianxin's attention instantly shifted from the roof to Mo Lingling. He stared at her with a look of confusion on his face.
Mo Lingling was also a little confused, because she hid the treasure that held Emperor Shitian's soul on the beam of the house, and she was subconsciously afraid that Jianxin would find out, so she took action unconsciously. But now facing Jianxin's face full of accusations, she was a little at a loss.
Not to mention Jianxin, everyone in the room now focused their eyes on Mo Lingling, with a look of confusion on their faces.
Chunying coughed dryly and suppressed the fear in her heart and said, "Young Palace Master, why do you have to use your spiritual power for a wild cat? Your body is already so weak, why bother with a stray cat." As she spoke, she leaned over and tucked the corner of Mo Lingling's quilt. While no one was paying attention, she blinked at Mo Lingling, signaling her master not to mess around.
Then he turned around and explained to everyone with an apologetic look: "Please forgive me, Mr. Jian. I didn't know that there is always a stray cat wandering outside this house. The young palace master felt sorry for it and fed it several times. You suddenly attacked just now, and the young palace master was worried that you would accidentally hurt the cat, so he offended you. Mr. Jian, please be magnanimous, and I hope you won't hold it against the young palace master." As he said that, he knelt on the ground, looking like he was being punished on behalf of his master, making people reluctant to blame him.
Since the little girl had said so, Jianxin, as a soldier, couldn't say anything, so he just raised his hand and said, "Get up."
"I bow to thank you, Mr. Jian."
Cat
Although Kenshin seemed to believe Haru's explanation, he still felt something was wrong. It seemed that the young master was hiding something from him...
Ling'er, who had escaped danger, breathed a sigh of relief. With her current strength, she would be somewhat underwhelmed if she were to face a master like Kenshin.
However, the stray cat plot could deceive Kenshin, but it couldn't convince her.
The young palace master who looked kind but was actually full of evil intentions would offend a person like Kenshin for a stray cat. Haha, she would never believe it even if she was beaten to death.
So, there must be something fishy going on here.
Mo Lingling must be trying to protect or cover up something when she takes action
Ling'er's eyes were once again on the roof.
Could it be that there is some mystery behind it
"Master, do you think that woman has hidden some treasure on the roof?" At some point, a sleeping Shushu suddenly woke up.
"Hey, you're awake. As the greatest and most powerful book king in the world, can't you feel if there's something hidden? Aren't you very powerful? How about I send you up there to smell it?"
Smell it
Why would he smell the hair of a book? He is not a dog.
"Master, I can't let you be like this. You scolded me in a roundabout way after I warned you about this book. Who is a dog? Humph! But I really smelled a familiar smell, as if I have smelled it somewhere before."
"... ... "It's really not her fault for joking. Now this guy has figured it out for himself.
"Oh, that's the fragrant smell in your room. Yes, yes, that's definitely it, it's that fragrant smell." Shushu condensed into a body, floating in the air and felt it carefully.
The smell of her house
She brought that spice from Yunhai City specially, and added some medicinal herbs to help with cultivation. The taste is unique and no one else can have it. How could it appear here
"Shushu, are you sure you smelled it? Why can't I smell it?"
Shushu rolled his eyes, "Are you doubting the King of Books' sense of smell?"
"You said it yourself, you are not a dog, you can smell it wrong..."
"You, you, you... Never mind. I don't want to argue with you." Buddha said, don't argue with fools. Yes, they are all fools.
If that kind of fragrance really appeared here, there is only one possibility, Emperor Shi Tian is here.
Because Di Shitian stayed in her room the longest, only he would be contaminated with that fragrance.
But...
Ling'er looked up at the roof, where the figure of the *** Emperor Shi Tian was clearly visible.
"Did you add bone-breaking grass into your incense?" Shushu asked.
"Yes, I added it in because the bone-engraving grass can strengthen the bones and meridians." Besides, that thing was almost moldy in the treasure house in Yunhai City, so she was just making use of the waste.
"Using the herb of scorching bone as a spice, you are the first and the last to waste money."
It takes thousands of years for the bone-cutting grass to form a single plant, and it is guarded by powerful monsters. It is a life-or-death struggle to obtain one. In the eyes of ordinary people, this is simply just a legend. Even the Yunhai royal family only treasured two plants. One of them was used as a spice by this prodigal master. It is really... beyond words.
"Because Bone-carving Grass has been used to make medicine since ancient times, it has a hidden property that mortals are unaware of."
"Are there any hidden features?"
"Yes, after being directly ignited, the bone-engraving grass will emit a unique smell that invades the soul. In other words, as long as the bone-engraving grass is used for a long time, the smell will be contaminated on the soul. This is another explanation for the name of the bone-engraving grass. It is unforgettable, endless, and eternal. But if it is ground into medicine, this characteristic will be **. However, this smell cannot be smelled by ordinary people, unless it is a spiritual treasure born in ancient times like the king of this book. So it is normal that you can't smell it."
Such a precious and hard-to-find herb, no normal person would use it as a spice, so this characteristic was not recorded. However, he was the King of Books, and he knew everything, so he knew it.
Oh... so proud.
Shushu became proud again at this moment.
"You mean, Di Shi Tian's soul is here." Damn it, what did that woman do to her Tian Tian that she even took away his soul.
"I think she must have used some magic weapon to control Emperor Shi Tian's soul, and then manipulate his body. A body without a soul is like a puppet doll, losing its own consciousness. In this way, he can avoid the detection of any spiritual weapon, including the dream island you mentioned." Because a person with a soul is no longer considered a human being, in this case, taking Emperor Shi Tian to the island is almost the same as bringing back a rag doll, and it will not be noticed.
When Ling'er thought of how Di Shitian was treated, the anger in her heart was like a flame with fuel added, burning fiercely in an instant.
This damn woman is really too much. She actually used such despicable means to deal with her man. She is a vengeful person. Since you have the courage to provoke her, you must be prepared to bear her anger.
"Now she has a group of masters around her. If you want to fight her head-on, your hope is probably slim." According to his observation, the man named Jianxin is definitely stronger than his master, and his subordinates are all masters. If a fight really breaks out, it will be almost impossible for them to retreat unscathed.
"Who said I was going to fight head-on? Are you kidding me? Do I look like someone who is not afraid of death?" She was still thinking about how to save the man. After the woman's series of actions, she finally figured out the answer.
Since Mo Lingling was afraid of the consequences, she just took advantage of this. Wasn't Jianxin the biggest obstacle for her to save people? She just used him as a shield.
With a leap, Ling'er returned to the roof again. This time, she even made some noise on purpose so that Jianxin could hear it.
"Who?"
As expected, Kenshin chased after him this time.
When Mo Lingling saw Jianxin go out and jump onto the roof, her heart rose to her throat.
At this moment, she had no time to think about someone coming to save her. Her mind was filled with the fear that her soul would be discovered by Kenshin.
What should I do? What should I do
Seeing her master's panicked and pale face, Chunying felt very anxious.
"Young Palace Master, please don't be too anxious. Your health is important."
"The situation is urgent. I can't care about these things now." Once the soul of Emperor Shi Tian is discovered by Jian Xin, not only will her master know that she used evil objects, but even her plan to bring Emperor Shi Tian back to the island will be ruined.
At the same time that Jianxin jumped onto the roof, Xiao Zi had already sneaked into the house according to Ling'er's instructions.
"Who are you, you dare to act so presumptuously here? Show up immediately." Jianxin followed the movement and found after a moment that he seemed to be spinning in circles. He looked up suddenly, "Oh no!" Lure the tiger away from the mountain.
Realizing this, Jian Xin immediately turned back. However, at the moment he was about to return, he fell into the formation that Ling Er had already completed.
Flames were burning in all directions. You couldn't see the outside world at a glance. Even the sky turned a fiery red.
"Flame Formation." This is an extremely aggressive fire formation. The strength of the formation is determined by the nature of the flame.
Kenshin tried to take a step forward, but the moment he moved, a streak of fire spurted out from under his feet. Although he immediately used a spiritual barrier to isolate it, a corner of his robe was still burned.
"Water can't even put it out." He had no choice but to cut off his robe. It seemed that this was not an ordinary flame.
Ling'er stood outside the formation, looking at Jianxin who was temporarily trapped in the formation, "I don't know if the time is enough, but I can only try it. I hope this formation can trap him for a while longer." She turned around and flew towards Mo Lingling's room.
At this moment, Xiao Zi was already fighting with Mo Lingling. Because Xiao Zi's body had turned into a solid body and was just a flash of light, it was easy to dodge and hide. So Mo Lingling had a hard time dealing with him because she couldn't hit him at all.
"Damn it, who on earth is this creature? How dare it play tricks on me like this?" Mo Lingling, who was already anxious, was now furious to the extreme.
"Chun Ying, big brother, help me stop him!"
"Lingling, give this thing to your brother. You are weak, so don't use your spiritual power anymore." Mo Feng was very anxious when he saw Mo Lingling's pale face.
Mo Lingling wanted to ignore the light, but he seemed to be deliberately provoking her, circling around her, sometimes deliberately slowing down his movements to wait for her. This was intolerable!
The room was in chaos at the moment, and no one noticed a figure sneaking in.
"Shushu, take a quick sniff, where is the soul of Emperor Shitian?"
"Please say sniff." He didn't know why, but every time he heard the verb "smell", he would unconsciously think of dogs.
"Great King of Books, take a sniff."
Although the words were changed, Shushu still felt something was wrong. Forget it, let's not argue with her for now, let's get down to business first.
"It's in the corner to the left of the second beam on the roof. There should be a concealment array and a potion to hide the smell. But that array should be a piece of cake for you."
Without saying a word, Ling'er went straight to the target.
Just when Ling'er reached out to break the formation, Shushu spoke again.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you something. The soul and the body cannot be too far apart, so if you are sure you can find the body, I advise you not to use this formation first, so as not to alert the enemy."
What should I do? It seems like I have torn up this book.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier!" She had to work so hard for nothing. She finally found the soul, but she couldn't move it! This book really deserves a beating.
Feeling Ling'er's anger, Shushu felt a little embarrassed. But it was not his fault, he just remembered it.
"How about we go find the body first. We already know where the soul is."
"That's the only way." Since the soul and the body cannot be too far apart, it shouldn't be difficult to find.
But this time Ling'er was disappointed. She searched everywhere in the inn, but couldn't find Di Shitian or even Zi Xi.
"It's strange. This place is so small. Where can she hide two people?" Even Shushu was a little depressed this time.
"Isn't your sense of smell very sharp? You didn't smell it this time?" Ling'er said somewhat disappointedly while sitting on a big tree next to the roof.
Shu Shu** didn't speak, but just shrugged the pages of the book, looking unconfident.
Ling'er had no choice but to ask Xiao Zi to come back first to prevent him from falling into danger. After such a long time, Jian Xin should be back soon. As for finding someone, she had to think of other ways.
After Jian Xin broke through the formation, he immediately rushed back to Mo Lingling's residence. The house was in a mess, as if it had been ransacked. Tables and chairs fell to the ground, vases and porcelain were broken all over the floor, and teapots and cups had also suffered the same fate. Mo Lingling, Mo Feng, and Chunying, who were in the house, also looked a little messy in their clothes. They were all angry, as if they had been robbed.
Looking at this situation, it is obvious that this is a move to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
"What happened?"
"There was a strange thing messing around here just now, but it's not a big deal." I was just a little annoyed.
"I'm glad you're okay, but I still have to check to see if there's anything wrong." Although he didn't know what that person's purpose was, he had gone through so much trouble, so it shouldn't be for fun. It would be better to be careful.
After meeting Mo Lingling this time, I always felt that many things were wrong, but I couldn't put my finger on the specific problem, I just felt something was weird.
When Mo Lingling heard Jianxin say that he needed to check again, her heart tightened again.
After the strange thing left, she suddenly remembered that the other party might be coming for Di Shitian. She sensed Di Shitian's soul at the first moment and felt relieved only when she knew that it was still in the same place.
As a result, I just felt relieved, but after a while, I was worried again.
Her rash action before had already made Kenshin suspicious, and if she spoke up to stop him now, it would not be a good idea.
Jianxin walked around, looking carefully at everything he saw. After looking at the ground around him, he slowly raised his head and looked towards the roof.
"Young Palace Master? Young Palace Master! What's wrong with you? Don't scare me!" Chunying suddenly shouted, her tone sounding very panicked.
Jianxin looked back and saw Mo Lingling lying on the bed with a pale face.
Jian Xin immediately stepped forward, "Young Palace Master, what's wrong?"
Chunying looked like she was crying. "I don't know what happened to Master Jian. The young master was already weak because of the poison. And after all the trouble he just went through, he may not be able to bear it."
"Let Mr. Liu come in and take a look."
"yes."
After diagnosis, Elder Liu said that this was because Mo Lingling had mobilized her spiritual power again, and that she needed to rest well in order to get better.
Now, everyone couldn't disturb her anymore and could only leave Mo Lingling's residence.
"This is the last time."
