Although the facial features of the girl in front of her are very similar to those of Amei who grew up in the dream, and can even be said to be exactly the same, the facial features of the person in front of her are obviously colder than the breath that Amei can't hide.
Look at her outfit again.
Wearing a plain short coat and a long red skirt, she held a dagger as thin as a cicada's wings in her hand, her thin iron ghost face was pushed up to her forehead, and her red lips were stained with a trace of blood.
Is it Yumei?!
Yu's eyebrows opened and closed, as if he was speaking something to the Taoist priest.
But Li Changan could only hear the sound of wind, rain, fighting, and roaring, and could not hear her voice at all.
soon.
The blur in front of my eyes quickly faded away, my vision became clear again, and my eyebrows once again turned into the appearance of a swallowtail butterfly.
Fortunately, although Li Changan couldn't hear the voice clearly, he "read" what she wanted to say from her lips.
Yu Mei is talking about "Jinhua Cat".
Jinhua cat?
As a Taoist priest who has been associated with demons and ghosts for a long time, Li Changan is naturally aware of the name "Jinhua Cat".
This is a kind of cat demon that is famous for its region and mostly causes trouble in Jinhua, Zhejiang.
It is said that domestic pets like cats are born with souls. Whenever someone adopts a cat from a young age, they will first explain to the cat that they will keep it for a few years. When the time comes, the cat will leave. But if it is abandoned midway, or is attached to it all year round, this will
Cats will gradually develop evil spirits, either to cause trouble or to protect the home. Of course, they usually do both at the same time.
The cat demons born in the Jinhua area are a rather peculiar type among them.
They will swallow moonlight in the middle of the night, and over time, they can practice a special illusion.
Every time it causes trouble, it will sneak into other people's homes and pee (harmony) in the drinking water. If ordinary people drink the water with added ingredients, it will be difficult to detect its existence. At the same time, the Jinhua cat can also use this to transform into a human form, turning into a woman when meeting a man.
, when he meets a woman, he turns into a man, and then does things that monsters like to see.
Li Changan's thoughts were spinning.
What Yu Mei meant was that the illusion in front of her was caused by a cat demon? But had she ever been tricked by it? That thing was extremely smelly, and she couldn't smell it when she tried to put it in her mouth? And most of the people in the court were bewitched by the magic.
, did they all drink cat urine? It’s not some fine wine... The familiar and unique aroma of wine lingers in the nose, coming from nowhere, filling every corner of Li'er Building.
It's so mellow and rich.
Even the pouring rain can't suppress it, making people drunken and ready to stir in their stomachs... Wait a minute!
Li Changan probably guessed how he and the rest of the people at the scene were tricked.
liquor!
Li'erlou's special mulled wine.
He drank it himself, Feng Chong drank it, Bo Ziyu drank it, most of the government servants and demon hunters also drank it, but Yu Mei was the only one who didn't drink it...
As soon as my thoughts cleared up, my eyes suddenly became clear.
It is also rumored that if the cat demon urine enters the stomach, it will accumulate in the human stomach and disturb the five senses all the time. If you want to detoxify, you must capture the Jinhua cat and use its flesh and blood as the antidote.
But.
The iron mantis has already chased after it and has tightly entangled the swallowtail butterfly.
Without her cover, those crazy humans and demons gathered around Li Changan again.
The Taoist priest looked around, which one was the Jinhua cat?
Fortunately, eating cat meat was just a common practice in Jinhua. As a warlock, he had a simpler and cruder method.
Steel knives, spears, fangs, and claws swarmed in from all directions, just like the storm in the courtyard.
In an instant, the linen robe was twisted into little pieces.
Rags flew down.
The Taoist priest rolled into the muddy water, played with a golden cicada to get out of its shell, and stood up again, with a gourd and a yellow talisman in his hand.
The gourd contains rootless water, and the yellow talisman is the evil-killing talisman. They are all common weapons in the yamen treasury.
He twisted his fingertips and the yellow talisman ignited spontaneously. He stuffed it into the gourd, shook it twice, then raised his head and poured it into his mouth.
Only then did Fu Shui enter the abdomen.
It was as if a blender had been turned on in my intestines, and it was churning.
Li Changan was not surprised but happy.
He held a sword in one hand to fight off the chaos, and held a gourd in the other hand to force himself to drink from the cow. Until water came out of his nostrils, he covered his mouth and nose, and hit his swollen belly hard with the hilt of the sword.
Wow!
The talisman water spurted out along with streams of sour and smelly liquid.
A certain government servant who came to kill me with a knife was showered all over his face.
At the same time, the intoxication in the Taoist priest's mind was swept away, and his thoughts suddenly became clear.
He looked up again and saw that the person he was killing was a government servant. He was clearly a one-eyed and one-legged monster.
The man and the monster looked at each other for a moment. The monster's eyes became increasingly panicked, and the Taoist priest's face gradually sneered. Then he heard a frightened and strange cry, and the monster turned around and tried to run away.
The reaction was quite fast, but unfortunately it was not faster than the sword. Li Changan raised his hand and killed it with a sword.
Look around the courtyard.
Everything returns to its original appearance.
The swallow-tailed butterfly turned back into an eyebrow, the iron mantis turned out to be Zhang Yi, the glazed lion turned out to be Feng Chong, some monsters turned back into humans, and some people turned out to be monsters!
Humans and demons have been distinguished.
Li Changan opened the sword case silently.
The next moment.
The wind and rain stopped, and the red light spread.
…
Zhang Yi felt like he had a lengthy nightmare.
A large number of monsters suddenly flooded into the Li'er Building in his dream. He led the guards and servants in the building to fight hard, but the monsters were not only numerous in number, but there were butterfly monsters, lion monsters and a Yaksha carrying a sword of mourning who were particularly vicious.
He couldn't cope with it, so he had to let the third lady leave first to seek help, while he stayed behind.
The struggle is getting longer and longer.
When he was wondering why the reinforcements had not arrived yet, he saw Yaksha spitting out a red light that flooded the entire courtyard, killing all the other guards and servants, except for himself.
He struggled to resist, but his fists were no match for his four hands. The butterfly demon knocked off his saber, and the lion demon restrained him. Yaksha stuffed his mouth with yellow paper money and pushed him into the pond.
Wow!
Zhang Yi vomited out a stomach full of sour water, and his mind suddenly cleared. The cold night rain hit his face, and he was shocked to realize that it was not a dream!
His first reaction was to touch his waist, but all the long and short knives he usually carried with him were missing.
His complexion changed.
He reached into his arms and never raised his eyes.
"Taoist Priest?"
…
Li Changan released his flying sword and killed all the monsters in the court with only a few breaths.
But dealing with other people took a lot of effort.
He followed the same method and rescued Feng Chong, but the cat demon was still running away. It would be a waste of time to save everyone else one by one.
So Tong Yumei used a simple method, knocking each of them unconscious and throwing them into the corridor. Finally, Zhang Yi was left. Considering that he was good at martial arts, he spent some time to unblock the phantom poison from him.
But after he woke up and understood the situation, his first sentence was:
"Where is the Third Lady?"
Yu Mei returned the bundle of long knives and daggers to Zhang Yi.
"You'll see her soon."
Yu Mei did not lie.
Zhang Yi did indeed meet Sanniangzi again soon.
only.
I'm afraid he would rather not see it himself.
…………
Several people followed the traces left by the cat demon.
Along the way, we solved a few unsightly slip-ups.
Finally, in front of a granary, they blocked the cat demon, or in other words, the third lady.
Turning into a monster doesn't seem to make her beautiful any less. On the contrary, her body becomes more graceful, her eyes become more charming, and she still has many fans around her. However, she has changed from the rich businessman and powerful person of the past to the monster of today.
The ranger was already fascinated by the sight, his eyebrows were still hidden behind the mask, but the eyes of the two Taoists went straight past the third lady and the monsters around her, and towards the closed granary door behind them.
The door was covered with some kind of weird font, which was brown in color and should have been made from human blood mixed with other things dried in the shade. Even from a distance, Li Changan could smell the pungent stench.
Li Changan frowned: "Bird and insect seal script?"
Feng Chong nodded: "Dharma Realm."
That granary obviously had a Dharma realm opened with bird and insect seals, and there must be something important hidden inside.
Maybe Sanniangzi didn't have time to escape, but had to stay here.
No need to say more.
The four of them spread out and approached the group of monsters in an encircling manner.
These monsters were really vulnerable, and they were easily knocked down by several people one by one without using any harsh measures. Soon, only Sanniang was left alone.
Li Changan shook off the remaining blood on his sword.
"Sanniang, now that things have come to this, why don't you just let us go and capture you?"
The cat demon responded with sharp claws.
The Taoist priest stopped talking nonsense and raised his hand with a sword.
But although Sanniang Zi came very quickly, she stopped suddenly when she came to the end, and then she retreated quickly like a ghost.
At the same time, with light steps and astonishing agility, he dodged Yu Mei's attack and Feng Chong's fire spell, and flew away in the opposite direction.
Guarding that direction is the ranger Zhang Yi.
Zhang Yi swung his long knife, and the blade cut into the wind and rain, as fierce as ever.
But when that charming face got closer and closer to him, the knife he held out became slower and slower.
I didn't expect love to be so deeply rooted.
Li Changan shouted urgently: "Stop her to save her!"
Zhang Yi shuddered, and the long sword he swung suddenly accelerated, but he inevitably retained his strength in order to force him back into the encirclement.
only.
No one could have imagined it.
Sanniangzi did not dodge or resist, and faced the oncoming force of the knife tip without changing her direction. When Zhang Yi hurriedly sheathed the knife, she even moved quickly, like a butterfly moving at the smell of fragrance, and pounced on the hard and cold "flower (Harmony)"
) core".
Phew.
The blade pierced the chest.
Warm blood gushed out, covering the blade and clinging to Zhang Yi's hands. These hands seemed to be so shocked that they almost couldn't hold the handle of the knife. Fortunately, the other hands, or in other words, a pair of cat's claws came together to help.
He held the long knife steady.
Zhang Yi murmured and lost his voice.
"Third Lady..."
The third lady smiled wildly, the charm of her demonic face never diminished, and there was even a hint of cunning in the corners of her eyes.
She pushed her body forward, letting the blade go a little deeper into her chest, and also brought herself a little closer to the ranger's arms.
His tears fell, and his face showed the helplessness and sorrow of a young man. But after all, he was Zhang Yi, the knight who had been in the world for a long time. He quickly cut off the curtain of tears, and his expression was once again covered with coldness.
He looked deeply at the person in front of him.
"I will avenge you."
The third lady was still smiling, like a cat surrounded by the winter sunshine, lying lazily in the arms of the ranger. Her voice still had a lazy tone, but gradually became weaker.
"Silly man, we are just monsters."
…
After a while.
"Slay the demon."
The three-foot green sharp edge cuts through the Dharma Realm.
The granary door burst open.
All of a sudden.
There is a demonic energy rising into the sky, tearing apart the rain clouds.
found it!
Demon's lair.
…………
Water moon view.
Deep in the cave behind the mountain.
The doctor slowly raised his head, and his eyes, with only two terrifying black holes left, seemed to have crossed many obstacles and stared at a distant place.
He silently opened the corners of his mouth, but buried his head again.
There was a faint sound in the dark room.
It was the iron hook on his shoulder blades that was trembling lightly and rapidly.
the other side.
A quiet room with a solitary lamp in the side yard.
Shuiyue Zhenren stood up slowly with his nine-section staff in his hand.
She tied the forehead with the protective gods painted on it straight, turned around and opened the door.
Phew~
The miserable wind and rain poured into the quiet room.
time.
The copper bells on his waist jingled, and the colorful cassocks on his body rustled in the wind.
She walked into the wind and rain in silence.
Behind him, on the murals on the four walls and ceiling of the quiet room, countless rampaging soldiers opened their eyes.
