When Li Changan woke up from the illusion of Xiaoshui's past.
I couldn’t help but let out a long sigh of relief:
"I see."
It turns out that Xiaoshui Fantasy Land is just a carefully crafted tomb.
The vine demon, also known as Yu Mei, is a gravekeeper who violates his duty.
The doctor, or Baihuandie, is a funerary object intended to turn against the guests.
All the living beings inside are just monsters in human skin.
The so-called "demon epidemic" is naturally not a real epidemic, but just an "actor" who has broken away from the "role" that he has played for decades and woke up crazy with hunger.
Think so.
In these days, what is the purpose of fighting life and death? What kind of monsters are there besides? What kind of people are they helping?
The Taoist priest couldn't stop laughing.
He raised his head slightly, and the sunlight falling from the entrance of the kiln shone on his face. It was warm and a bit dazzling. He raised his hand to cover it... Huh? The Taoist priest put his hand down blankly and turned it over in front of his eyes to take a closer look. This was a mace.
The broken left hand was actually intact as before.
Not only that.
Deep or shallow scratches, bites, stabs, and cuts all over the body, as well as the weakness caused by excessive blood loss, were all wiped away. If the tatters on the body were not still the same, it would really make people think that the rampant fighting between the same group was just a group of people.
A fantasy dream.
"call."
The Taoist opened his chest to absorb Qi and stretched his joints. He felt that his body was light and energetic, and he was in good condition everywhere. However, his muscles and bones were sluggish and his hands and feet were a little tingling, as if he had been sitting stiffly for too long.
His mind moved.
Look at the sun at its zenith. It was still late at night when we entered the illusion.
"How long?"
"Three days."
The God of Dionysus answered lightly, but Li Changan became excited after hearing this.
Three full days have passed in reality, but in the fantasy world...
"Zi Mansion's divine thunder is really domineering!" Dionysus twisted his beard and laughed, "With just one strike, it cut through the illusion. I don't know how many monsters were burned, killed and shocked. If there were a few more strikes, wouldn't it be possible to kill them on the spot?
Dispel the illusion!"
Fortunately it didn’t break up!
Li Changan was very happy.
What is locked in the illusion are tens of thousands of hungry cannibal monsters. Once they escape... just thinking about it makes people shudder.
But he didn't relax in one breath.
The Dionysus and the Old God spoke: "But it will be a matter of time."
Li Changan raised his eyebrows: "How do you say that?"
"The illusion should have fallen apart long ago. To this day, it is nothing more than devouring passers-by, monsters, and beasts, or tearing down the east wall to make up for the west. But now, the divine thunder has not only penetrated the illusion, but also shattered its
The foundation. If we repair it quickly, we might be able to survive for a while. But although the vine demon luckily escaped with his life, I'm afraid he will never have the chance to control the illusion."
The Taoist priest was puzzled.
The Dionysus sneered and said: "The Taoist has forgotten the Hundred Illusion Butterflies? The vine demon is waiting for the bird to be hidden, and the Hundred Illusion Butterflies are waiting for the oriole behind."
Li Changan's first reaction was that it was impossible.
The doctor had an iron hook pierced through the bone of the lute, and was heavily sealed in the mountain behind Shuiyue Temple. Yu Mei was surrounded by a group of rampant guards.
But then I thought about it.
In the illusion, the iron hooks and seals are illusory objects. The illusion is shaken by divine thunder, and the phantom butterflies are flying among the illusory objects. It is possible to escape by taking the opportunity.
The rampant soldiers around Yu Mei were all used against him, and they suffered heavy losses from the divine thunder. It is not impossible for Bai Huandie to turn against him if he is not careful.
But Li Changan had another guess.
That is that Baihuan Butterfly has always had the ability to escape. He deliberately sent it to the door to make the "mantis" of the vine demon think it was victory and attack Li Chang'an, the "cicada", so that he could act as an oriole behind.
.
Figure out the joints.
Li Changan's troubled mood actually calmed down.
Things have come to this, how can it get worse?
There are only two possible developments. One is that the illusion collapses, and tens of thousands of hungry monsters come out of the cage, eating the people who are thousands of miles away. The other is that the long-cherished wish of the hundreds of phantom butterflies comes true, and the birds occupy the dove's nest and stabilize it.
Illusion, for example, using some monsters as food to feed the illusion, and over time, they become a huge evil force.
all in all.
One causes severe chaos, and the other causes endless disasters.
Either way, it cannot be solved in a hurry.
The Taoist priest simply sat down cross-legged and looked at the Dionysian beside him, who was either really uncaring or filled with despair, and wondered:
"Since Zun Shen is a mere creature, now he has to escape from his cage. Isn't there any way to do it?"
The god of wine shook his head and laughed.
"The Taoist priest thinks too highly of me."
"I have been cut off from worship for nearly a hundred years, and I have been sealed in a stone statue for decades. I should have dissipated long ago."
"Although the Taoist priest used his magical power to wake me up from the chaos, a lonely soul cannot see through the illusion or touch it."
"It was your divine thunder that pierced the illusion, and I was able to see the things in the illusion. But as the thunder and fire subsided and the illusion healed, the things inside became dark again and I couldn't see anything."
"The only thing I can do is probably use the gaps created by the divine thunder to send one or two people into or out of the illusion."
All right.
Li Changan had already been mentally prepared and was not too disappointed.
It's just that Dionysus is unreliable, and it's impossible to solve the current predicament on his own with only a sword. Thinking about the past few times of slaying demons, whether it's a mountain spider or a corpse Buddha, there are foreign aids that can be attracted.
But this time, along the way the Taoist priest walked, he saw deserted villages and abandoned shops, deep mountains and old forests, and no living person. Who could he look for?
Besides, tens of thousands of demons cannot be eliminated with just one or two helpers.
The only way is to stop the situation in advance before it gets to the worst.
But according to what Dionysus said, whether a group of demons emerge from the cage or the phantom butterfly takes over, it all happens in a matter of seconds.
The situation before us is imminent, full of dangers, and a rolling wheel weighing on our heads.
If Li Chang'an, the praying mantis, doesn't want to be shattered to pieces, he may have no choice but to run away with his tail between his legs, put all the grudges behind him, watch from a distance, and watch the evil chaos bring disaster.
However.
Can you really put it aside and watch it?
…
Li Changan frowned and thought hard. The wine god next to him didn't care about him. He just conjured a drinking utensil and poured himself a drink.
The clouds in the sky are rolling and relaxing, allowing the sun to move.
Until the sun quietly slipped out of the narrow circle of sky overhead.
Li Changan suddenly stood up.
Didn't he say anything? He just plunged into the water.
Not for a while.
He picked up the flying sword embryo, which looked like a dead fish, and the accompanying sword that was bent into a plow from the bottom of the water. He cut some vines and wrapped the flying sword around his waist, and stepped on the accompanying sword to straighten it.
After some exercise, I felt that my muscles and bones were open and I felt refreshed as never before, so I spoke to the God of Dionysus:
"But I have to trouble God again."
Dionysus didn't even raise his head.
"It's okay for the Taoist to speak frankly."
"Please take me back to the fantasy world."
This sentence finally brought the Dionysus out from between the cups. He looked at the Taoist priest with surprise and disbelief.
"Do you have any idea?!"
"I have some clues, but whether it can be used and whether it can be successful can only be known after seeing it and trying it."
"Then there's nothing we can do."
The Dionysian's waist that had just been straightened relaxed again, and he collapsed on his stone statue, pouring one glass after another of wine into his mouth.
"I think the Taoist priest is also a sensible person. You should know that the danger of the illusion at this time is a hundred times more than usual. You are young and have good abilities. Why waste your good years and useful life on this."
This is indeed true.
The illusion is indeed more dangerous now.
Previously, people were in the illusion, and although they were ignorant and pawns, the only people they really had to deal with were Yu Mei and Lang Zhong.
But now, the illusion has been pierced by the divine thunder and is on the verge of collapse. Tens of thousands of demons may break away from the illusion at any time and swarm to eat people. If you enter Xiaoshui at this time, the biggest danger becomes the illusion itself. What's more, there is Yu Mei.
He and the doctor were watching eagerly.
It can be said that if there is a slight mistake, you will be shattered to pieces.
but……
"Zun Shen doesn't know. Although I, Li Chang'an, worshiped the Three Pure Ones and practiced Taoism, I did not pass on the teachings. After all, I am a fake Taoist priest. I am not as gentle and peaceful as a real Taoist priest. I am just stingy and stingy.
, that is, hatred must be repaid.”
"The master's tablet and the magical artifacts he carried were left in the illusion, and they must be taken away."
"Yu Mei and that big moth used me as a chess piece and played around with me. This revenge must be avenged!"
"Moreover……"
Li Changan smiled and pointed at the stone statue behind Bacchus.
Before drinking the wine, there were only slight cracks, but now that I woke up from the illusion and my injuries were healed, half of the stone statue had disintegrated into gravel.
"The grace of saving my life cannot be repaid."
The God of Dionysus poured and drank for a long time, then smiled bitterly and shook his head, revealing the fatigue and weakness hidden under his free and easy appearance.
