More than a dozen lanterns were overturned, and the unfettered tongues of fire licked the window paper, curtains, and wooden lattice... The fire was blazing, and the sound of killing became more boiling, the aroma of the wine became more mellow, and the blood became thicker.
Among the chaotic monsters, Li Changan danced with his sword.
When the blade of the sword passed by, the skin and flesh were split open, and blood was sprayed.
But... something seems wrong?
Did the monsters transform too abruptly? Or were the monsters weaker than expected? The Taoist priest's sword easily cut open their long necks and opened their chests and abdomen. What's the difference between becoming a monster and not becoming a monster?
If you have doubts in your heart, you will inevitably become dull under the sword.
I was distracted and almost got hit by a random blade.
Fortunately, although these government officials have turned into monsters, their men are still the same as before, carrying knives and acting cruelly.
Li Changan held the sword and struck repeatedly, and he broke out of the encirclement with a single movement. He also knocked down two long-necked monsters that were chasing after him. When he looked at the field again, he was stunned.
The monsters did not chase them, but instead slashed at the surroundings with their swords.
They are actually killing each other!
The stronger the aroma of wine in the air, the more intoxicated the mind becomes.
The Taoist priest was stunned for a moment, and when he turned around, the final winner had already been decided.
It stood with its sword in a pool of blood, its long neck wrapped around its shoulders, and its face with only a mouth facing Li Changan silently.
then.
Coming with a sword.
The momentum is strong and heavy, but the force is too strong.
The Taoist priest's sword came up diagonally. When it struck, the sword's edge stuck to the blade and drew a semicircle. The sword's momentum was easily diverted, and then the sword tip was sent away.
Phew.
The cold blade pierced the warm chest.
A few bits of blood spattered and stained his eyes.
The Taoist priest blinked.
But he was stunned again.
In the reddish field of vision, the "demon" in front of him did not have the long neck, but only the confused and pale face of Huang Captou.
His voice was as thin as a gossamer and gradually became inaudible.
"Taoist Priest? Why..."
Li Changan's hands couldn't help but tremble, and Huang Captou's body lost its restraints and fell softly backwards, slipped from under the sword, and fell into the bloody corpses on the ground.
And these corpses, whether they were killed by Taoist priests or killed by each other, at this moment, all looked like normal people, and they all had puzzled faces.
Illusion?
Did he accidentally kill his companion? Or was it a false illusion?
Firelight caught his eyes.
The Taoist priest looked cold and had already made a bad guess.
at this time.
There were loud explosions in the distance, accompanied by intermittent curses.
"Drive out fire thunder, shake fire bells, capture Bingding, soar into fire clouds..."
Fire bell spell?
Feng Chong?
In the courtyard!
Yes, everyone has obviously been tricked by monsters, now is not the time to hesitate.
Li Changan took one last look at the corpses of the government officials, leaned over and wanted to close Huang Baotou's eyes, but he stopped and said "Immeasurable Heavenly Lord" and turned to leave.
…………
Taoist priests have visited Li'er Tower many times.
The path from the restaurant in front to the courtyard in the back is quite familiar.
You have to get out of the corridor after twisting and turning.
A figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
Looks like a catcher.
Meet the Taoist priest.
He pinched his throat and screamed.
"monster!"
Just run away.
But the Taoist priest couldn't hold him back. His feet were quick and his hands were quick, so he caught him back in two or three steps. Seeing that he was still struggling wildly, he slapped him twice in the face.
"Look clearly, it's me!"
This man calmed down and looked at the Taoist priest blankly.
"Daoshi Li? Immortal Li!"
The Taoist priest frowned, "You..."
Before he finished speaking, the man burst into tears.
"Monsters! So many monsters! Everyone has turned into a monster!"
"Everyone is coming to eat me. I'm scared and want to run away, but I bump into the ghost and hit the wall, so I can't escape."
He burst into tears as he spoke. Fortunately, the Taoist priest also figured out what happened to him.
"Don't panic."
Li Changan took out the sword from the detective's waist and stuffed it into his hand.
"Just follow Pindao."
After that, he picked up his sword and stepped out of the corridor and into the courtyard.
…
Heavy rain covers the courtyard.
Some dim light shines from the attic opposite, reflecting the roaring and crying shadows in the court. There are people and monsters. At this moment, they are all fighting each other like they are possessed, humans and demons, humans and humans, and even demons and demons.
, making no distinction between friend and foe.
The sword box on the Taoist priest's back buzzed loudly, as if he was aroused by the crazy blood in the rain.
But the moment he was about to come out of the box, he was held down by Li Changan.
The scene in the corridor just now flashed through my mind.
What we see before our eyes is that the demon is really a demon? Are humans really humans?
For example, the one behind me.
In the corner of Li Changan's eyes, the policeman was sneaking around, quietly raising his hand, his nails as sharp as hooks, and reaching for the Taoist priest's waist.
The Taoist turned around and slashed away with his sword.
However.
簌~
There was a sudden sharp sound.
That was something tearing through the wind and rain and coming through the sky.
Li Changan and the government servant, or monster, both changed their expressions and jumped away at the same time.
next moment.
The turbulent air currents stir up the wind and rain.
The Taoist priest opened his sleeves and pushed away all the random raindrops.
Look at the field again.
Between the man and the demon, a huge swallowtail butterfly suddenly appeared.
The wings of the giant saucer are pure white like snow, with long red tails at the end, slowly fluttering in the air, like a ball of floating light.
This is the first time I have seen such a beautiful monster.
The Taoist priest couldn't help but look at it carefully, trying to figure out where to cut it to death.
But he was too sentimental.
The big butterfly didn't even glance at the Taoist priest. It flapped its wings in the rain, turned into a neon light, and flew straight towards the "yamen servant".
However, the "yamen servant" did not confront him, and hid in the corridor in a few steps to escape. The big butterfly pursued him, but was repelled by a sudden cold light.
It was a big praying mantis, its body was black as if made of iron, except for a pair of sickle arms, which were white and cold, as if they were two hundred-forged steel knives.
Play around.
It splashed towards the swallowtail butterflies like a gust of wind and rain.
The swallowtail butterfly is not an easy creature. It flaps its wings, twists and turns in the air, advances and retreats, and the iron mantis cuts into the rain curtain with every knife.
But even so, every time the butterfly tries to get around the mantis, it will be blocked by the iron mantis's knife net.
The two have nothing to do with each other, they just fight together.
…
These two big bugs were fighting each other in a lively manner.
Li Changan was beside him, but his expression became even weirder.
Why, the more I look at it, the more I feel that when the iron mantis chops, there are strict rules and changes, which are quite similar to Zhang Yi's knife; the big butterfly advances and retreats, like a fish swimming in the water, and like a withered leaf in the wind.
Yu Mei’s body technique.
Could it be possible... The Taoist priest remembered the blood splattered on his eyes in the corridor, and then he saw the truth... He quickly found a cut on his body, dabbed some blood on his eyelids.
You can open your eyes and take a look.
Butterfly or butterfly, mantis or mantis, nothing changes.
The aroma of wine from unknown origin was still entering his nose, and Li Changan couldn't help scratching his head. This illusion was really difficult to deal with.
Sudden.
A fierce wind came from the back of his head.
The Taoist priest turned around and struck down with a sharp claw, causing water to splash everywhere.
But it was a big dog that was grinning at him. Li Changan was confident that he could kill the dog monster with one stab of his sword.
But is the monster you see in front of you really a monster?
During the moment of hesitation, behind the dog demon, crazed people and ferocious demons swarmed in.
…
Li Changan was a little timid.
He just dodged and blocked, but there were too many people and monsters rushing towards him, and within a short time, several more bloody wounds were opened on his body.
Fortunately, these guys are already fighting each other, and the Taoist priest can barely cope with it for the time being.
However.
A glazed lion appeared out of nowhere.
The whole body was translucent amber, and in the heart was a blazing flame, which kept shooting firelight around, burning the monsters and making Li Changan miserable.
What's even more unlucky is that it is at the other end of the courtyard, and Li Changan is at the other end of the courtyard. Those indistinguishable guys in the middle were roasted by the fire, and they all jumped towards the Taoist priest.
Li Changan gradually became difficult to control.
I almost couldn't help but let the sword drink blood.
A sudden stream of light flashed in front of him, and he saw fluttering butterfly wings, drawing a bright flame in the dark night rain, and sweeping away the people and monsters around Li Changan.
The glazed lion over there threw a few more rays of fire, but they were also stopped by the big butterfly spreading its wings.
This butterfly...is helping me?
While I was still thinking, the lights and shadows were floating in front of my eyes, and the swallowtail butterfly had already appeared in front of the Taoist priest, floating quietly in the rain.
The big butterfly did not attack, only a pair of tentacles kept swaying, as if conveying something to Li Changan.
Li Changan thought: If I were just a moth, I might be able to understand.
But now...he just had a dull face and spread his hands.
This meaning was accurately conveyed to the other party.
The tentacles of the big butterfly paused, as if it had made some decision, it suddenly flapped its wings.
Li Changan has sharp eyes.
I saw something coming with the wind.
He subconsciously wanted to dodge, but at that moment, he thought, if this butterfly was really an eyebrow... the bachelor's energy in his bones came out.
Rather than letting the monster fool you, it's better to take a risk.
The Taoist priest was cruel, suppressed his instinct to dodge, and braved the strange wind blown by the butterfly fan.
Of course, I didn’t forget to grab a mahogany sign in my hand.
This is the object that the Taoist priest picked out when the Yamen opened the treasury before the "big army" set off. It has the effect of warding off evil spirits and protecting the body. It can be regarded as a cheap magic weapon. As a wild Taoist with a single method, this
When it comes to planting things, Li Changan has always been good at planting more.
Talk less.
Just say that the fishy wind is blowing on your face.
A little warmth sticks to my eyes.
Fortunately, there was no reaction to the mahogany card in my hand.
The Taoist priest felt slightly relieved.
Immediately afterwards.
He found that the picture in his eyes suddenly trembled, and in the blur, the swallowtail butterfly in front of him tore away the appearance, revealing its true appearance.
She was a girl with a thin face, sharp outlines, and a heroic look between her brows and eyes.
