"What the hell!" Ikehashi shouted.

But the black shadow in the wasteland didn't answer. When Ikehashi came closer, it suddenly stood upright and was three meters tall. It was so dark that it looked like it was covered with a cloak.

I couldn't see what it was, but on the moonlit wasteland, there suddenly appeared such a dark shadow, which was extremely scary.

Like a nameless ghost.

But Ikehashi Matsu was not afraid: "Evil monsters, eat my sword!"

He has achieved great success in martial arts and has entered the half-step samurai realm. He has not yet fought vigorously. When he saw a ghost, he directly waved the ghost head sword and performed the white rainbow penetrating sun sword move in the "White Rainbow Sword".

The shadow of the sword flashed behind him, and the whole person's momentum was inexorable.

But just when the ghost-head sword was about to hit the black shadow, the black shadow suddenly flew up, then moved parallel in violation of the laws of physics, and dodged directly to the gravel roadside ten meters away.

Ikehashi Matsu jumped up, raised his sword and chased after him.

The black shadow's cloak unfolded, and countless bats rushed out and attacked Ikehashi Matsu.

"Hmph!" Ikehashi Matsuki Touken used his sword skills, and suddenly the sword was heavily shadowed, forming a wall of wind, crushing the bats one by one, and then he charged forward with his sword again.

Black Shadow's move has no effect.

Three lines of black cloth suddenly flew out from the cloak. The black cloth seemed to be infinitely long, coming from three directions, left, right, and up, and was about to sweep Ikehashi Matsu.

Ikehashi Matsu ignored it, charging into the shadows while wielding the Ghost Head Sword. The weapon made of meteorite iron allowed his bright and dark energy to be poured into it without any stagnation.

The power was concentrated on the blade, and the black cloth was cut into pieces like tofu.

He has the aura to defeat all laws.

The black cloth shattered into tens of thousands of pieces, all turned into black energy and dissipated, leaving the black shadow as if it were a fool's errand. Taking this opportunity, Ikehashi Matsu finally got close to the black shadow and saw clearly the face of the black shadow. It was a puppet's face.

suddenly.

The puppet's face opened its mouth, as if it was laughing silently.

Under its cloak, several puppet arms stretched out and grabbed Ikehashi Matsu. Ikehashi was accidentally grabbed by the puppet arms. At that time, the puppet arms turned into ropes and tied him up.

"Cut it off!" Ikehashi shouted.

I tried to break free from the rope, but couldn't.

He simply refused to break free, and took out his right hand, holding the Ghost Head Sword and stabbing it at the puppet's face. The puppet quickly separated an arm and turned it into a rope to wrap up the Ghost Head Sword.

But as soon as he got entangled, he was cut off by the Ghost Head Sword.

Therefore, the puppet shadow had to branch out more arms to restrain Ikehashi Matsu, trying to completely subdue Ikehashi Matsu.

Ikehashi Matsunori kept struggling and was always able to break free of one or two ropes, causing the puppet's shadow to reach out his arms again and again, turning into new ropes to tie him up.

A bundle, a struggle.

There was a stalemate for a while.

But this situation did not last long. A fox howled in the bushes not far away, followed by a violent shout and a scream: "Monster...ah!"

The black shadow of the puppet instantly succumbed, and all the ropes that bound Ikehashi Matsu slipped down.

The originally three-meter-tall ghost puppet turned into an ugly calf-high puppet in the blink of an eye. Its eyes, ears, mouth and nose were out of proportion, and its body was crooked.

Seeing this, Ikehashi Matsu smiled knowingly: "Lao Tu succeeded!"

He threw off the rope on his body, grabbed the puppet on the ground, channeled his energy into his body, and stuffed the puppet directly into the red gourd: "It can fit in without leaving a secret door!"

After long exploration, he discovered another wonderful use of red gourd.

Firstly, it is to check whether the living creature is dead, and secondly, it is to block the breath of other people on the equipment.

For example, the items used by Tu Shanji to cast spells have Tu Shanji's breath on them and will resist his Qi, so they cannot be stuffed into the red gourd no matter what.

Only after Tushan has removed it and casts a spell can it be stuffed in.

After stuffing it in, Tushanji could no longer contact the artifact, thus cutting off the possibility of casting spells.

This puppet can turn into a three-meter-tall black shadow and has great fighting power, so it must be a desirable treasure, so he naturally wants to take away his loot.

It's too late, it's too late.

Ikehashi put away the puppet and quickly rushed to the bush where the fox roared.

Heading on, they saw a man and a fox fighting. The fox was naturally Tushan Jie, and it used black smoke to wrap around the man in black in front of him.

Although the man in black was entangled in the black smoke, he had a talisman attached to his body. The talisman shone brightly, blocking the harm caused by the black smoke to him, and counterattacking the entangled black smoke.

This man was dressed in black and had a mask on his face.

But from the outline of his figure and face, Ikehashimatsu easily recognized that this was Xuan Hanzi, the abbot of Xingzi Temple.

Without any hesitation, Ikehashi Matsu raised the Ghost Head Sword, and then brought it down hard.

Poor abbot Xingziguan, who was a Taoist priest and attained a high level of truth, ended up with his head being separated.

Before the blood could splash out, Ikehashi Matsu took out a water bag early and put Xuan Hanzi's head and body into the waterproof bag to prevent blood stains.

The golden light on the talisman lost its guidance, instantly dispersed and weakened. Tu Shanji directly made the black smoke fly into the waterproof bag, and then penetrated into the eyes, ears, mouth, and nostrils on Xuanhanzi's head.

Then he took advantage of the situation and exhaled: "Ji."

Fu pointed at the props on the ground and motioned for Ikehashi to put them away.

It turned out to be a disc with a set of small puppets on it. The puppets were connected with thin strings, and one end of the strings was tied to two wooden sticks. There was no doubt that Xuan Hanzi was hiding here just now, controlling the puppets to attack Ikehashi Matsu.

"Let's go, Lao Tu, go back and explain in detail."

They put away the puppet disk, grabbed Xuanhanzi's body at the head and ends, retrieved the 28 big bars parked on the gravel road, and quickly returned to the pine garden, one person and one fox.

Tu Shanjie recalled the black smoke from the hole in Xuan Hanzi's head, opened his mouth to swallow the black smoke, then jumped directly onto the beam, waved his paw at Ikehashi Matsu: "Chi."

Ikehashi Matsu understands that this is the method he wants to use to marry his dream.

However, before going to bed, he first put the body and the bag into the red gourd to prevent the body from being discovered and exposing the fact that he had committed murder.

My mood was agitated, it took a while to calm down, and then I fell asleep.

In a dream.

Tu Shanji wiped the non-existent sweat on his head and complained sharply: "I knew that these Niubi in Taoist temples have precious talismans on their bodies for self-defense.

If you hadn't arrived in time, Brother Chi, I really wouldn't have been able to hold him back!"

"Is it that golden talisman?"

"Well, I don't know what kind of treasure it is, but it is very defensive. My little devil's head is blocked by the golden light and it is difficult to get in... There are still ways to defend against a sneak attack. This guy Xuan Hanzi really has evil intentions!"

Ikehashi Matsu ignored its complaints and asked: "What's going on with all this? Xuan Hanzi has been silent for the past two weeks. Why did he come here tonight?"

"I don't know either. He came over in the evening and used a trick to sneak into the pine garden. I secretly woke up the axe and the dogs and made them bark incessantly, scaring Xuan Hanzi away.

"

Tu Shanjie touched his beard and continued: "Who knew that Xuan Hanzi didn't come into the pine garden, but instead hid in secret. I knew in my heart that he was here to ambush you, Brother Chi.

When you come back, I will remind you to act.

Then just wait for him to get into trouble with you, and then sneak attack him, trying to trap him and kill him, but he didn't expect that he has a precious talisman to resist him."

After understanding the process, Ikehashi breathed a sigh of relief and was still in the mood to joke: "How about it, my acting is okay."

At that time, when he saw the black shadow and heard Tu Shanji's warning, he knew what to do. He pretended that he was no match for the puppet, but it was difficult to bind him easily, so Xuan Hanzi concentrated on controlling the puppet.

Create a sneak attack opportunity for Tushan Jie.

Xuan Hanzi may be cautious and even suspicious of Ikeqiao Matsu.

But he never expected that Ikehashi Matsu was not only a half-step samurai, but also had a vixen with ninety years of experience by his side - and he had already analyzed how to plot against him.

Even the waterproof bags for the corpses were prepared, and they were obviously fully prepared to destroy the corpses and eliminate traces of them.

With calculated calculations and no care, Xuan Hanzi died unjustly - from the moment he took action, he was already a corpse, and Ikehashi Matsu would never let the threat go away alive.

"Brother Chi's acting skills are excellent, he can make his debut in movies." Tu Shan complimented with conscience, and then said with emotion, "When you are walking in the world, you can't be careless. I almost missed a Taoist priest who is so powerful. You should be the guide."

As a warning."

"In the past, you only picked on the weak, so you were absolutely foolproof."

"Ahem, no, no, no. In the past, I also had a secret battle with Master Fei, the master of the Si Han Tianshi Mansion, for several years."

"Didn't Tao Zhengmin help you cover up your aura?"

"Although, it can be considered as having fought with Master Fei!" Tu Shan was anxious and argued loudly, "After listening to Master Fei for several years, I have never exposed my whereabouts. How many people can do this!"

Ikehashi Matsu gave it some face: "This is indeed a good thing."

Tu Shanji immediately calmed down, stroking his beard and smiling reservedly: "Foxes have thousands of tricks. Although I, Old Tu, am not good at fighting, I am also good at it."

Immediately, it asked: "Brother Chi, what do you think of tonight's events?"

Ikehashi thought for a moment silently and replied: "Just wait and see what happens, pretend nothing happened, and go to and from get off work normally... Abbot Xingziguan is missing. This matter cannot be hidden. It depends on the county and Sihan Tianshi Mansion." Is there any action?"
