Chapter 33: The Manifestation of the Holy Spirit (For Further Reading)
call out--!
Suddenly, a shrill sound broke through the air.
Wang Yuan suddenly reached out and lifted the tables with wine and food in front of him.
The next moment, "Duo, Duo, Duo" three flying knives in a row were nailed to the chopping board with amazing force, almost completely piercing it.
However, when Wang Yuan and the gangsters suddenly changed their heads, they looked up at the door of the flower hall.
But no one could be seen, and one could only faintly hear the sound of very faint footsteps, moving far and near in the night, constantly wandering.
Thinking of the curse he just heard, Wang Yuan's heart moved.
After quickly browsing the memory of "The Stealing Cat" Cui Tong, staring at the empty night in front of him, he suddenly laughed:
"'Shadowless Mouse' Wen Juncai? He ran away without turning around when he saw your grandpa cat. How dare you rush over to him to die?
Are you so anxious to reunite with your brother?"
If you use [Human Face Painting Skin] to take over other people's identities, you will naturally take over other people's karma.
In fact, when he first realized that this was a good opportunity to break into the enemy, Wang Yuan was already mentally prepared to meet his original enemy.
I just didn't expect it to be so soon.
If the prediction is correct, the enemy who drew his sword before meeting was none other than Wen Juncai, the "Shadowless Rat" among the two rats in Ningchuan.
Four years ago, when Cui Tong was still working as a head catcher in Guning County, he had already formed a relationship with him.
At that time, he was not the "stealing cat", but the "royal cat".
The two Ningchuan rats were already somewhat famous thieves at that time. Although they were mediocre in Taoist military training, they each mastered a special skill.
Wen Junsheng, the rat "hairless rat", has practiced the "oil and water method of stealing doors".
As long as he drinks a bowl of talisman water and applies medicated oil on his shaved head, his whole body will be as slippery as if it were stained with oil, and no one can touch him.
Even if he is surrounded by a group of government officials and beaten with sticks and knives, the damage will be replaced by the talisman water in his belly, and he can easily escape several times.
But the only commandment of this technique is: you cannot drink raw water. Once the raw water enters the stomach, the skill will be destroyed immediately.
At that time, the two brothers, who became more and more aggressive because they had no one to control them, were about to steal Guning County's treasury money, but they were bumped into by Cui Tong, who happened to be on duty.
During the chase, it happened to rain heavily, causing the "hairless rat" Wen Junsheng to accidentally drink raw water. Cui Tong seized the opportunity and easily killed him.
However, the previously lost money could not be recovered, and Cui Tong left Guning County angrily after being blamed.
The second rat, "Shadowless Rat" Wen Juncai, has practiced an even more magical [invisibility method].
During the practice, you need to find a woman who died unexpectedly on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and steal a chopstick that was enshrined in front of her soul while her family was unaware. No one should be allowed to see it during this period.
Wrap it in talisman paper and hide it in a clean and ventilated place. On the night of the lunar eclipse, use a knife that has not been stained with blood to cut the chopsticks into wooden hairpins while chanting a mantra in your mouth until the end of the lunar eclipse.
Put this enchanted hairpin on your head and recite the incantation directly in case of emergency, and you will be able to hide your figure in front of others.
Cui Tong has heard this incantation before, and it is exactly: "Imperial order! Thunder, thunder, stars, cooking, turning, banging and photographing!"
Never thought that today's gathering of bandits would lead to them bumping into each other.
The hatred of killing a brother is irreconcilable, so the "Shadowless Rat" does not care about being on other people's land and directly takes revenge.
Hearing Wang Yuan's taunting in Cui Tong's tone, he remained silent, but raised his hand and fired two thunderous flying knives again.
A golden cold light shot out from Wang Yuan's sleeve, and with a flick of his tail in the air, he knocked down two flying knives.
And he himself was like a wisp of blue smoke, suddenly rushing out of the flower hall.
After reaching the "strengthening energy", the strength reaches the four ends of the teeth, tongue, nails, and hair, and the mind is alert and able to respond to any stimulus.
He has locked the location of the "Shadowless Rat" through these attacks.
For Lao Jianghu, vision is not everything, and identifying location by listening is already a function.
However.
Ring ring ring...
The flying knives shot by the "Shadowless Rat" actually had bells hanging behind them. When the night wind blew, it immediately covered up the extremely light footsteps of the "Shadowless Rat".
Then, more flying knives and flying needles were shot towards Wang Yuan like a heavy rain.
Now that "Shadowless Rat" has been in the industry for many years, he is well aware of the strengths and weaknesses of his own techniques, and has already prepared the corresponding means to defeat the enemy.
Otherwise, with a bounty of three thousand taels of silver from the government on his back, how could he be so free to this day?
Wang Yuan's footsteps paused, and his situation suddenly became worrying.
If they can only defend but not attack, even [Tao soldiers] who are in the inhuman realm will be tortured to death by this invisible life.
"I have heard the name of the 'Shadowless Rat' for a long time, and this person actually possesses special powers.
Is there anything that a capable man cannot steal even if he is invisible? Even the head of the county magistrate cannot escape this empty hand, right?"
"Even though the 'Stealing Liang Cat' has such a famous name, he is just an ordinary person. How can he defeat a master of the art?"
"Here the cat is being teased by the mouse. It's really disappointing."
"How can 'Following the Shadow' be better than 'Without a Trace'? I bet this cat will be captured in thirty breaths."
"I'll also bet, one hundred taels, twenty interest."
"Haha, one hundred and twenty taels..."
The gangsters who had just called Cui Tong brothers were all laughing, pointing, and starting a gambling game with peanuts. They were all plastic brothers.
Can be sold at any time.
The noise in the flower hall further interfered with Wang Yuan's hearing and positioning.
"Hey, if you can use your real skills, why do you need so much trouble?
[Magic of Gathering Beasts] can attract flying insects to attack, and [Magic of Transforming Tigers] can turn into a fake tiger, and you can easily catch this mouse.
It's a pity that even if I use magic to kill this guy, I'm afraid I'll have to run away immediately. It's too wasteful to kill such a small character."
Although Wang Yuan could not use magic, he was not helpless.
Invisibility is not invisible, just like before, it only takes a drizzle to make him reveal his true colors immediately.
The [Golden Winged Jade Waist Slave] in Wang Yuan's hand suddenly shot towards the small flower hall behind him. Before a bandit could recover, it suddenly wrapped around a wine jar on his table like a spiritual snake.
No matter which martial art of war it is, the power of practice will never be separated:
These nineteen methods include "rolling, wrong, torturing, grinding, springing, cold, straight, side, fixed, breaking, knife, saw, beating, dusting, pulling, lifting, stepping, heavy, and away".
Cui Tong, who practices such exquisite techniques as the "Butterfly Art of War", is a master of this art.
With a twitch of his finger, the wine jar suddenly flew into the air. Instead of flying toward the footsteps that had long been difficult to distinguish, it rushed straight into the air.
Then, the golden cold light in Wang Yuan's palm closed and released.
Snapped!
The wine jar suddenly exploded in the air, and the slightly thick and silky wine was blown into a large mist by the force contained in the steel dart, falling like a light rain.
The intoxicating aroma of aged Dukang immediately filled the courtyard.
There is no need to listen to the sound to identify the location, there is no way to hide, the "Shadowless Rat" who was soaked by the wine suddenly appeared.
at the same time.
A fire stick was flicked into the air by Wang Yuan, and exploded into an aerosol gel of high-strength wine in mid-air. It was instantly ignited and exploded into a fireball that soared into the sky.
The "Shadowless Rat" couldn't help but cover his face with his hands and dodge back in panic, because the [invisibility method] borrows the power of ghosts and is naturally afraid of water and fire.
Not in rainy days, not near fire, only at night can you be completely invisible.
But when the flames dissipated, the "stealing cat" was nowhere to be seen.
Holding a flying knife in hand, he wandered around.
But suddenly I heard a chuckle from behind:
"A mouse is a mouse. Once it sees the light, it will have no control over its fate."
He suddenly turned around, only to find that there was nothing behind him.
Facing another "invisible man" for the first time in his life, the thief couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and shouted:
"Cui Tong, you...where are you, come out!"
His face was full of vigilance, and his body turned slowly until he scanned the whole circle of the field and still couldn't find where the opponent was hiding.
Not even the slightest sound of footsteps was heard.
However, he found that all the noisy gangsters in the flower hall had all quieted down, staring directly behind him.
He seemed to have seen something incredible, and his face was full of shock.
"Shadowless Rat" turned around quickly again, but there was still nothing behind him.
If he did it again and again, his face would only look like a ghost.
However, in the eyes of the bandits in the flower hall.
Cui Tong, the "stealing cat", always followed him like a shadow with his miraculous movement skills. He stood three feet behind the "Shadowless Mouse" and was also in his blind spot.
Even for a martial arts master like "The Liangmao", it doesn't matter whether he can see the target from this distance.
According to Wang Yuan's own character, such an enemy who has the hatred of killing his brother should naturally be hacked to death cleanly.
But Cui Tong's character label of "loving fame" and "showing his holiness in front of good people" disagrees.
I just want to show off my skills in front of others.
Let the audience see his martial arts invisibility, which can be said to be as invisible as a shadow.
His movements are as fast as a civet. Even if someone were to be in a three-foot-long room with him, or even walk around to check, he would not be able to find his presence.
It is precisely by "stealing one's beams and substituting pillars" that others can't discover their special skills.
"This guy is not even a human being. He loves vanity so much. He really deserves your early death."
The gangsters in the hall watched this magical scene like a civet cat playing with a mouse, and they had already subconsciously held their breath.
When traveling in the world, most people have experienced some strange skills.
But it is unheard of to rely on real skills to achieve the effects of a strange magic, or even to suppress similar magic.
“Brother Cui is so capable, it’s an eye-opener!”
"What am I talking about? Shadowless Mouse is nothing more than a clown. How can it be Brother Cui's rival?"
"That's right, that's right! Brothers should stay close to each other from now on."
at the same time.
The "showing the saint in front of others" to take care of Hua Ling's emotions was finally achieved.
This miraculous footwork and use of strength were quickly absorbed by Wang Yuan like a sponge, quickly consolidating the shortcomings of his rapid progress and insufficient accumulation.
Adding a bit of skill to the fierceness and bravery of his own [White Tiger Art of War].
No longer playing with the mouse, he tiptoed and flew away. The golden cold light in his palm shot out again like a swimming dragon, directly hitting the back of the "Shadowless Mouse"'s head.
Under Wang Yuan's powerful explosion, the steel dart actually exploded into a fierce circle of air in mid-air.
The head of the "Shadowless Mouse" was about to explode like a watermelon, spilling brains all over the floor.
clang--!
Suddenly, a tiger-head knife outside the field turned into a sharp sword, flew towards it, and violently collided with the gold-threaded steel dart that was almost approaching.
It made a huge sound of gold and iron.
In the darkness, he saw a figure who had been watching outside the venue for who knows how long. With some appreciation, he said leisurely to him:
Chapter completed!
