The Exorcist has now developed the habit of taking a nap until the evening and acting at night. As the saying goes, day and night are reversed, and you can live forever. Everyone yawns during the day, including Hongjun, but every time the second watch comes, they are full of energy. hundred times.
Qiu Yongsi and Hong Jun sat on the roof of the tile eaves, where the entire Longwu army could be seen. Artest stood guard outside Hu Sheng's room, while Mo Zhigen squatted on the backyard and the wall of Hu Sheng's room.
At night, the lights in Hu Sheng's room were still on, and there were many soldiers living in the Longwu Army garrison. Although Hu Sheng had a house in the city, he still often ate and lived with his subordinates. For some reason that night, I was quite restless, walking over and over again, looking at the cage covered with talismans from time to time.
"Where do you come from?" Although Hu Sheng didn't believe that the little fox was Jin Yun, he felt a little pitiful seeing that he was seriously injured.
The little fox replied: "Commander Hu, let me go."
Hu Sheng yelled "Wow", full of panic.
Outside the room, Mo Zhigen and Artest heard it, and when they were about to step forward, Li Jinglong stood in the courtyard and signaled to the two of them not to go in, it doesn't matter.
"Wait here." Li Jinglong whispered, "Unless it runs away, don't act rashly."
After speaking, Li Jinglong leaped up the wall, and then ran to a higher place.
"You, you, you...you can talk?" Hu Sheng seemed to be in a dream, when a Longwu army guard knocked on the door outside, and asked, "Commander Hu?"
Hu Sheng hurriedly said it was all right, dismissed the guards, and looked at the little fox. With tears in his eyes, the little fox said in a low voice: "Commander Hu, I know you treat me with all your heart, and I have also thought... If I am not a demon..."
"You, you, you..." Hu Sheng couldn't help stepping back, his eyes full of fear.
"My three sisters used to practice in Xinyang." The little fox approached the cage and whispered, "I just want to see this world of mortals, so the elder sister and the second elder sister brought me to Chang'an. We never harm anyone , helpless, can only commit himself to Pingkangli, but even so, Li Jinglong is still unwilling to let go... "
"That guy didn't lie to me." Hu Sheng said in shock, "You really are a demon!"
"Commander Hu!" Said the fox demon, "Buddhists often say that people have the virtue of loving life. If you let me go, I will repay your kindness even if I get married in this life. I still remember when you and I met, I went to court Is that the story you told?"
Hu Sheng took a deep breath, and finally calmed down. After the fox demon said this, he remembered that he first met Jin Yun three years ago, it was the night when lanterns were put under the Qushui Bridge during the Yulan Basin Festival. That night Jin Yun told him a story about a fox demon and a scholar, to the effect that he was a gifted man and a beautiful woman, but because of the different ways of the demon, he had to be separated in the end.
Hu Sheng's eyes were full of pity. He had never heard of such sad and beautiful stories since he was a child, but what happened before him still made him suspicious.
Li Jinglong jumped onto the roof, just as Hong Jun and Qiu Yongsi were talking in a low voice, when they saw Li Jinglong coming, they immediately stopped talking.
Li Jinglong looked at the two suspiciously. Both of them were mysterious. In fact, it was Hong Jun who was asking Qiu Yongsi about Ping Kangli just now—the sixteen-year-old young man was full of curiosity about everything when he was young. . The more Li Jinglong told Hong Jun not to ask more questions, the more Hong Jun wanted to ask, so Qiu Yongsi lowered his voice and described it to Hong Jun, making Hong Jun blushed.
"Is there something strange?" Li Jinglong asked.
"No." Qiu Yongsi said hurriedly.
Hong Jun blushed and replied, "No."
The two looked like they were waiting for Li Jinglong to leave, but Li Jinglong sat down beside him. Hong Jun felt guilty of being caught as a thief, so he couldn't sit still.
"Brothers, it's hard work. After this case is investigated." Li Jinglong said, "We must let everyone take a good rest and find a place for you to have fun."
Li Jinglong looked at Hong Jun and Qiu Yongsi, Hong Jun became interested in an instant, and said: "We just returned..."
Before the sentence was finished, Qiu Yongsi immediately stopped him, and continued: "...it is right to do things for the country, how can you say it is hard work?"
At this moment, in the darkness, the ground swelled, and an arched beam like a back kept approaching the Longwu Army Academy. When it reached the main hall, it hit the foundation with a bang, so it backed up a little, found another way, and made a detour. , Pocketed in from under the courtyard wall.
Li Jinglong noticed it immediately and asked, "What's the sound?"
Hong Jun and Qiu Yongsi looked confused, Qiu Yongsi felt the slight vibration, and said: "I just lowered my head... It seemed to be shocked."
Everyone only knew that there was still a fox demon, and they kept paying attention to the walls, roofs and other places, but they didn't expect something strange in the ground.
"Is there any monster that can escape from the ground?" Li Jinglong asked.
Hong Jun immediately remembered—that day he hunted down a carp that was nearly twenty miles away!
When Li Jinglong learned about it, he immediately jumped down and said, "Everyone gather in the backyard!"
The ground bulges, and a black mist rises, forming the figure of a tall and thin man. The man is dressed in black and has a bloody scar on his forehead. He pushes the door open and enters.
The door of Hu Sheng's room was pushed open with a "squeak", and the cage door opened wide. A woman was wounded and pale. It was Jin Yun who put Hu Sheng on the bed with tears in his eyes, covered him with a quilt, and whispered Said: "Commander Hu, I'm really sorry... I don't want to..."
"It's actually accompanied by feelings." The man in black said sadly.
Jin Yun turned his head abruptly, frightened enough, frowned and said, "Flying mastiff?"
Fei Mastiff replied: "The superior said, let me take you out of Chang'an City immediately."
Jin Yun heaved a sigh of relief, and said with tears: "The elder sister and the second sister died at their hands. Are you feeling better?"
Fei Mastiff stepped forward, picked up Jin Yun's chin, and said, "I didn't expect that the exorcist this time is actually a tough one. Just wait, I will avenge them, let's go."
Jin Yun took a step, but couldn't help staggering. Seeing that she was injured, Fei Mastiff rolled up his sleeves and hugged her in his arms. The left hand releases demonic power, pouring it continuously into the top of her head to heal her wounds. Jin Yun's complexion slowly recovered a little.
The five exorcists were scattered in the courtyard, and Mo Zhigen stood high on the courtyard wall, slowly drew his longbow, and aimed at the two figures in the room.
Qiu Yongsi and Li Jinglong leaned against the door, listening to the conversation from the room above them.
Artest and Hong Jun hid in the dark, with a fan in one hand and three throwing knives in the other.
"The enemy is in front of you, you really shouldn't waste your cultivation for me." Jin Yun said in a low voice.
"After tonight, I will go away and fly away, and I will not stay in Chang'an." Fei Mastiff replied casually, "I will wait for you and me to practice in the future, and then come back to avenge your sisters."
Jin Yun suddenly heard the meaning behind the words, and said in surprise: "They asked you to kill me?"
"With me here, no one can touch you." Fei Mastiff said.
"What about the other sisters?" Jin Yun said, "I'm afraid Li Jinglong will continue to investigate."
"If it wasn't for your second sister's entrustment, all the corpses would have disappeared." Fei Mastiff said, "How to investigate? Could it be possible to arrest them one by one and torture them? After the palace examination next year, I will teach that Li Jinglong died without a burial. If he dies like this, I'm afraid it will be cheaper for him."
When they heard this, Qiu Yongsi and Li Jinglong's expressions froze at the same time. Li Jinglong's eyes were full of shock, and he didn't let go of his raised hand.
At that time, Fei Mastiff put his arms around Jin Yun, pushed open the door, and took a step—
Before Li Jinglong could make a move, Mo Zhigen had already released an arrow very quickly. Jin Yun realized the danger soon after he said it, and pushed the flying mastiff sideways, and fell to the ground with a scream from the arrow.
"Leave him!" Li Jinglong shouted.
The flying mastiff reacted very quickly, Jin Yun knew it was a trap as soon as he was hit by an arrow, and immediately dragged Jin Yun with one hand, and rushed out of the room! Li Jinglong drew out his sword, and the flying mastiff turned around suddenly, pounced on Li Jinglong, and roared angrily: "Surrender!"
Everyone was shocked, fearing that Li Jinglong would lose, all arrows and knives were shot at the flying mastiff. The flying mastiff suddenly roared, and water vapor burst out from around him, and rushed in all directions.
Li Jinglong was the closest and was thrown backward by that blow. Hong Jun released five-color divine light to protect himself and Artest. When he was about to go forward to save him, Li Jinglong stepped on the pillar, holding a sword in both hands, and shouted angrily: " You are the one who is going to die! Monster!"
Li Jinglong joined the sword, rushed towards Fei Mastiff, and slashed down with the sword. Fei Mastiff raised his hand and caught the sword with a "dang". Swirling the sword body, Li Jinglong was thrown out again.
"Fei Mastiff, go away... leave me alone..." Jin Yun said on his last breath.
"I'm going to kill them!" Fei Mastiff was furious, gasping for breath.
"It's up to you?" Artest sneered.
At this time, as soon as Hong Jun received the divine light, Artest shook out his blue folding fan, and waved the fan the moment Hong Jun received the divine light.
A tornado erupted on the flat ground, and the water vapor released by the flying mastiff formed a hurricane, which slammed into the flying mastiff. Amidst the loud noise, all the doors and windows of Hu Sheng's room were destroyed, and Mo Zhigen shot arrows. Three arrows hit the flying mastiff's body. But the flying mastiff turned into a giant fish in mid-air, and Li Jinglong shouted: "Hongjun! Flying knife!"
Hong Jun made another knife, "shua, shua, shua" repeatedly, and the arrows and throwing knives were all nailed to the flying mastiff.
The giant carp smashed through the back wall of the room, stabbed towards the ground, and rushed out of Longwu Army with Hong Jun's second throwing knife.
In just a few moments, the entire Longwu Army had heard the voice and raised their torches one after another. Li Jinglong shouted: "Chasing! We can't let it escape this time!"
Everyone chased out from behind the courtyard wall it broke through, and the station behind them was already in chaos, Hong Jun shouted: "Follow my throwing knife and run!"
Immediately after that, just like that night, the ground swelled, and the squid rushed north of the city with a flying knife.
"Don't go to the palace..." Li Jinglong said, "Chase!"
Everyone in the Exorcist Division quickened their pace and chased after the squid. In order to retrieve the first flying knife, Hong Jun must not let it escape this time, so he immediately threw out the hook rope and flew onto the eaves. Mo Zhigen followed Leap up and follow behind Hong Jun.
Artest waved the folding fan again, and a strong wind rolled up and sent him to the roof. Li Jinglong followed behind everyone and jumped up a few steps.
"You... wait for me!" Qiu Yongsi shouted.
Li Jinglong: "..."
Qiu Yongsi was still climbing the wall, and couldn't climb up after a few tries, so Li Jinglong had to turn around and pull him up. In the blink of an eye, the three people in front had no idea where they were going, Li Jinglong said helplessly: "Hurry up!"
The carp suddenly bypassed the palace and rushed to the north of the city with a flying knife. Hong Jun shouted: "It's going out of the city! It's out of the ground!"
"Hong Jun! Send me up!" Artest shouted.
Hongjun: "??"
The carp rushed too fast, and had reached the northeast city gate. Hong Jun had no time to think, he had already thrown out the hook line, and swung by the hook line—
——A-Tai jumped out of the roof, turned around in the air, stretched out a hand to hold Hong Jun's hand, and Hong Jun used all his strength to grab his wrist and waved Artest into the air.
Immediately afterwards, Mo Rigen jumped up, grabbed Hongjun's wrist, and shouted: "Trouble!"
With another flick, Hong Jun also flung Mo Zhigen against the city gate.
It was late at night, and the gate guards were still talking about today's interesting stories in Chang'an.
"I heard that Li Jinglong caught a fox today and sent it to the Longwu Army, saying he caught a monster hahaha—"
"I want to make meritorious deeds and want to go crazy! I will bring a dog tomorrow..."
"what sound?"
Several city gate guards heard the rumble of the ground and the shouts of Artest and Hong Jun in front of the city gate, and hurriedly came to the tower to look down.
Li Jinglong and Qiu Yongsi rushed over.
The turtle breaks through the ground and leaps upwards.
Artest was in mid-air, just when the carp roared, opened its mouth wide, and flew towards him, it was about to bite him to a bloody mess.
Artest pulled out the piano behind his back and said, "Give me—get off!"
After finishing speaking, Artest picked up the Barbat and slammed it hard at the carp.
Everyone: "..."
It was earth-shattering, and there was a loud noise. The moment the piano fell, it was as if a strong sound wave exploded. The nearly three-foot-tall carp was shot and fell to the city wall, smashing countless flying bricks, and fell to the city wall with a bang. outside!
"No way!" Hong Jun yelled, "It's really smashed!"
Artest: "Huh?"
Mo Zhigen laughed loudly, stepped on the tower and flew bricks, opened his bow, and shot three arrows in a row, hitting the three compound eyes on the forehead of the carp. They pulled it out together!
Immediately afterwards, the carp fell into the ground outside the city, and Li Jinglong and Qiu Yongsi chased them out. Li Jinglong shouted, "Open the door!"
At this moment, the hearts of several gate guards simply collapsed.
Li Jinglong roared: "The exorcism company is on duty! If you don't open the door again, you are the only one asking!"
The city gate guard hurriedly opened the door, Li Jinglong didn't care to speak, and ran out, dragging Qiu Yongsi who was panting.
"Where's the horse?" Li Jinglong looked around.
"Where's the monster?" Mo Zhigen also looked around in the dark.
Li Jinglong pointed to the north, signaling it to flee north.
"A Tai, you are so strong!" Hong Jun was still in shock.
Artest said modestly: "Where is it, you are not as good as my little brother."
"No, no, your spells are so powerful!" Hong Jun sincerely admired Artest, especially the piano he swung.
"Our Artest is the Great Master of the Western Regions..." Qiu Yongsi hurriedly echoed.
"You're enough!" Artest said, "Qiu Yongsi, what else have you done these days besides watching us play monkeys? It's time to show off!"
Qiu Yongsi said: "I really can't..."
"Stop chatting!" Li Jinglong said impatiently, "Come here! I found the horse!"
Mo Zhigen and Li Jinglong had led the horses. Hong Jun thought that he would be escaped by the monster again this time, and he would pay for the second throwing knife. Didn't expect there were horses outside the city
Everyone got on their horses and chased along the official road. Li Jinglong pulled out his sword and turned it to the north, and the sword lit up.
"Why are there still horses?" Hong Jun wondered.
"It was prepared in the afternoon." Li Jinglong replied, "The four gates in the southeast, northwest, and each have horses."
The horse galloped in the dark night, all the way to the north, the sword was getting brighter and brighter, the carp was seriously injured, and the speed slowed down significantly, shuttled through the wheat fields after the autumn harvest, and rushed all the way to the mountains to the north.
"This sword can indeed sense your flying knife." Li Jinglong controlled the rein with one hand, and held the sword in the other. The sword body shone brightly, illuminating everyone's way forward.
Qiu Yongsi said: "Maybe they are made of the same material. If the treasures come from the same womb, there will often be resonance."
Everyone rode their horses and stopped in front of the Daming Palace. Li Jinglong was worried, his brows were knit into a knot, and the light on the sword had stabilized—the monster had entered the Daming Palace.
"Break?" Mo Zhigen asked.
"Break." Li Jinglong said.
Hong Jun threw the hook rope and climbed over the wall of the backyard of the Daming Palace, which was Zhang Xu high, and everyone climbed the hook rope one by one to enter.
Although Daming Palace is Li Longji's residence, it is far less popular than Xingqing Palace. Li Longji rarely comes here during the day, and the palace is outside Chang'an City, only a few hundred people look after it. Li Jinglong signaled his subordinates to follow him and walked slowly through the halls.
The palace people had already fallen asleep, and a ray of moonlight in the sky illuminated the sanctity and desolation in the palace.
The blade of the sword became brighter and brighter, and the autumn wind blew through the gauze curtain, and there were intermittent roars in the courtyard of the apse.
Flying Mastiff embraced a dead little fox, knelt in the courtyard, mourning unceasingly, hoarse voice, crying repeatedly.
"Why... you just died like this..." Fei Mastiff hissed.
When Hong Jun heard the cry, his nose couldn't help but get sore. Mo Zhigen seemed to have guessed his thoughts, and put a hand on his shoulder.
Li Jinglong said in a low voice: "Everyone has any special skills later, use them out of trouble, don't hide your secrets anymore. Especially you, Qiu Yongsi."
Qiu Yongsi could only smile.
"Also." Li Jinglong said again, "Keep alive, and you will have to go to trial when you go back. You must defeat the enemy as soon as possible, and don't destroy too many things."
Everyone said "hmm", Li Jinglong thought about it, after all, it is an external object, and it would be even worse if it hurts someone, so he said: "Come on, let go and do what you want, just pretend that I didn't say that."
Immediately after he made a gesture, everyone dispersed to the four corners of the courtyard in the apse.
Li Jinglong walked into the courtyard with a sword in hand.
Hong Jun, Mo Zhigen and others all stared nervously at Li Jinglong, Hong Jun frowned, every time it was Li Jinglong who lured the enemy, it was too dangerous.
Hong Jun's flying knife was stuck on the back of the flying mastiff, and the flying knife was still shining intermittently.
Li Jinglong walked ten steps away from the flying mastiff, and stood opposite it in the wide courtyard.
"Let's do it." Li Jinglong replied, "This is the end of the matter, there is no need to talk about it anymore."
Fei Mastiff said hoarsely: "Li Jinglong, let me guess, do you have a lover? Who is your lover?"
Li Jinglong remained silent, his eyes fixed on the movements of the flying mastiff.
Fei Mastiff said hoarsely again: "As long as you can't kill me today, tomorrow I will bite off your lover, her flesh, inch by inch; peel off her skin bit by bit; Pull out her tendons little by little."
"One day, I will use her tendons to strangle your neck." When Fei Mastiff raised his head and looked at Li Jinglong, Hong Jun, who was staring at it from a distance, couldn't help but shudder. This was the first time he saw such deep hatred and hostility in the demon's eyes, it was almost about to spew out that black energy.
The flying mastiff opened its mouth, and its face deformed accordingly, revealing a mouth full of sharp teeth! Li Jinglong clenched his sword tightly and replied: "Unfortunately, I think you will never have that day."
"Even if I die at your hands today." Fei Mastiff hissed, "There will be someone who will avenge my blood!"
"Do it!" Qiu Yongsi shouted suddenly.
Everyone never expected that it was Qiu Yongsi who spoke first before Li Jinglong gave an order!
Hong Jun was also afraid that Li Jinglong would not be able to stop the flying mastiff before he made a desperate blow, so he immediately shook out the flying knife! Sure enough, countless shining sharp teeth shot out of the flying mastiff's throat, Li Jinglong retreated suddenly, and the flying knife swept across, blocking the cold sharp teeth flying like a rain of flowers!
The flying knives swung away, clanging and knocking away the sharp teeth flying around.
Hong Jun suddenly shouted: "Li Jinglong!"
This time Li Jinglong was on guard, and retreated to avoid being caught by the flying mastiff again. Everyone shot together, but the flying mastiff was a false move, turned around and rushed into the back hall of the Daming Palace!
Mo Zhigen shot out all seven arrows in an instant, turned a corner in the air, chased the flying mastiff and shot into the hall. Hong Jun and Artest have chased after them.
"Wait!" Li Jinglong was about to shout, but Qiu Yongsi said loudly: "Hongjun's magic weapon is the most durable, don't worry about him, Chang Shi, let's go!"
Li Jinglong, Qiu Yongsi, and Mo Zhigen rushed in immediately. The wooden door was first destroyed by the carp, and then there was a loud bang, and something was knocked down. Immediately afterwards, Artest held a fan in one hand, and the red, blue, yellow and green rings in his hand lit up with strong light at the same time, and slapped the ground hard.
There was a loud "boom", the ground shook, and the entire apse jumped up under Artest's mana!
The turtle could no longer hide on the ground, turned its head and roared at Artest, and bit it down. It was too late and then soon, Hongjun was already in front of Artai, and the five-colored light flickered, like an indestructible and powerful shield, mutually interacting. Collide! At the moment of collision, Hong Jun roared: "Get out!"
The moment the squid collided with the five-color divine light, it exploded with vigor and smashed it backwards!
The huge carp rolled around in the hall, and knocked over a lot of furniture and porcelain. The guards outside the Daming Palace came to investigate in a panic, and there were shouts everywhere.
"You guys..." Li Jinglong rushed into the hall, seeing the mess all over the place, he didn't know how much he would have to pay if this important incident happened, so he hurriedly shouted, "Take it out and beat it!"
"I'll try my best!" Hong Jun shouted, chasing after him quickly, followed by Mo Rigen. While running, he made a move, and the seven arrows with nail heads flew back, gathered into a bunch, and burst into light before the bowstring.
Hong Jun held the jasper peacock feather in one hand, carrying the five-color divine light, and swiped his sword finger in the other hand, and the flying knives shot at the carp like shooting stars in turn. Artest waved the folding fan three times in a row, and was swept up by three tornadoes infused with lightning, frost and flying sand.
The back hall was smashed by the squid, and when it was about to break through the wall and escape to the side hall, Mo Zhigen's arrow finally left the string and shouted: "Withdraw!"
Hong Jun was at the forefront to resist the collision of the squid. Hearing this, he backed away. Li Jinglong immediately grabbed his collar and dragged him back. The seven arrows with nail heads gathered together, flashing bright lights, roaring and shooting off the pillar, hitting the carp and piercing its abdomen.
Three tornadoes caught up afterwards, and there was another shock of the wall collapsing, rolling the carp out of the wall and rushing towards the square outside the back hall of Daming Palace.
