Lin Shanhai and his apprentice chased after her. They stopped beside her, but did not dare to speak after seeing her reaction. She clutched the edge of the monument, and the skin on her fingers was pricked, and wisps of red ran along the uneven surface.
Slowly flowing down the side of the monument.
Could it be that her mother was really killed? No way, what are they trying to do?
Looking at Mu Wan's trembling shoulders, Dai Luan cautiously stretched out his hand. Shan Hai bent down to look at the monument and felt a stinging pain in the side of his head. I really don't know if they were joking or seriously wanted to kill him.
No matter how it was done, it was disgusting. Dai Luan also saw that name and was absolutely disgusted.
Mu Wan's trembling was not caused by grief, but by anger.
A small pile of soil was piled aside. It must have been prepared for a while, and some weeds had already taken root and sprouted. It was probably obvious that the coffin was newly buried, with only a shallow layer of soil sprinkled on it. They quickly dug up the soil and saw this
Ordinary coffin, silent for a moment.
"Open it?" Dai Luan asked.
"Haha, there could be a ghost inside."
Mu Wan sneered and stretched out her hand to lift the coffin board. Shan Hai quickly stopped her hand and gently tapped the coffin with her knuckles.
Of course, no one spoke or suddenly jumped out of the coffin. But Shan Hai still looked bad. He took a deep breath and said to them alertly:
"There's something in there."
"...Is there really someone lying down?"
Dai Luan took a step back, and Mu Wan didn't believe in evil, so he stepped forward and stretched out his hand. At this moment, the coffin board suddenly trembled, as if something was about to jump out. The three of them were surprised for a moment, and then thought, but
Who was just pretending? But then, the board trembled again, as if someone's hand was beating inside, responding to the mountains and seas. The mountains and seas immediately pulled the two people back, and at the next moment, the coffin board was suddenly knocked open, and several lines of color
Different kinds of big snakes flew out from it, like bows and arrows that were suddenly released, or like splashing water.
Dai Luan suddenly drew her sword and cut off the thick snakes with the force of drawing her sword. She aimed accurately, exactly seven inches of each snake. After they were broken, they scattered on the ground, still struggling and twisting, until they were completely
When it got quiet, black smoke started to emit.
"It's a trap."
As soon as Shan Hai finished speaking, the snakes that had been lurking in the cemetery for some time came crawling out from every corner, as if they were disturbed and angry. After a while, the snakes that were cut off on the ground suddenly jumped again, entangled in
Together, it was like messy yarns of different colors were entangled into a ball. After they slowly untied themselves, the snake segments were put together again, and some were not spliced to their original bodies. The colors
The contrast is very strange.
But they did come back to life and stared at them with cold and ferocious eyes.
"If you can't kill them all, run away first!"
Shanhai pulled the sleeves of the two of them and motioned them to run up the slope. The snakes chased after them, and their purpose was clearly to run towards them. Compared with his peers, and even disciples in the same period, Xi Yu was naturally very
Strong, he lasted enough time to face two opponents with no actual combat experience. However, Gui Tan was not an ordinary sword, not to mention there were two of them, and Xi Yu was soon at a disadvantage. It was obvious that defeating them here would not be possible.
It was not Xi Yu's intention. Those snakes must have been ambush here long ago. And since they can listen to her, everything must be related to She Ji.
The hillside on this side is very steep. It's not as easy as Mu Wan rolling down. Xi Yu was pushed back by Gui Tan and jumped back. He drew his knife and knocked down Mu Wan who was about to attack. She was not unprepared.
He held up his umbrella to block the blow, and used his feet to push hard against the protruding rocks. The rocks that were deeply embedded in him were kicked off, leaving a big hole and rolled down. Shanhai's shoulder avoided the fall.
He picked up the broken soil and stones and raised his hand to throw up the fly whisk. Dai Luan stepped on his shoulder, then stepped on the end of the fly whisk. Finally, he turned over and jumped on Mu Wan's umbrella, and drew Xi Yu's sword away with one sword.
Her sword flipped out from her shoulder, spun a few times in the air, and stuck straight on the slope. The blade also cut off a small section of her braid on the left side, and the ponytail was no longer symmetrical, which looked a little funny.
.
Xi Yu showed a panicked look for the first time, but it didn't last long. The confidence and calmness of a child like her were disturbing, as if there was something waiting for them later. But Dai Luan breathed a sigh of relief first.
When she turned around and saw Shanhai standing upright in front of her, she felt an indescribable emotion.
"Oh... I thought I could beat you into a pile of snakes." Xi Yu looked very regretful.
"You don't have the strength." Mu Wan glared at her, "I've been hit harder. Do you want to try?"
Suddenly, a black snake snaked its way from Xi Yu's neck. It raised its front body and looked at them provocatively. But it looked nothing special compared to the group of snakes. It just opened its mouth.
, what is spat out is not the letter, but the words.
"Are you talking about some Onmyoji who was supposed to kill you?"
This voice was soft and soft, very much like She Ji, but not the same. But from the annoying tone, it must be him. Maybe, this snake is just a stand-in.
"You guys really know everything." Shan Hai looked at him, feeling a dull pain in his head.
"That's natural. However, we still know too little. We need that mirror... Did you bring it?"
"Wait a minute, what do you mean should have been killed?" Dai Luan walked up angrily, "Although you did let him kill many important people in Mu Wan, but he has no direct interest in her, so why should she be killed?
!”
The snake twisted its head slightly and leaned forward. Dai Luan could almost imagine the annoying look of She Ji approaching with raised eyebrows. He said:
"Well... I did ask Shaoxia Tang to kill her. After all, that idiot Wu Yuangui is still thinking about his old relationship even if he can't save everything. But that guy and Master Xianyue probably have other things to deal with, so they were delayed... What a pity. Still.
Okay, I didn’t pay the deposit.”
Mu Wan suddenly raised the hand holding the umbrella, and it was as clean and neat as a swing of a knife. The snake wrapped around Xi Yu's shoulder was suddenly cut off, along with a section of her hair on the right side.
Now it's symmetrical... maybe a little less so.
"Hey, hey, you guys are going too far, you are going too far!"
Xi Yu felt distressedly and touched the short hair on both sides. The ponytail almost turned into horns.
"I've stayed for a long time, how can you keep me company?"
"...But growing hair is very troublesome." Mo Liang, who had been silent all this time, whispered.
"I don't care!"
After that, Xi Yu waved his hand, and the snakes at the foot of the hillside suddenly sped up their movements, twisting and crawling along the steep slope like lightning bolts, which were overwhelming, spreading up like a stream flowing upstream. Mo Liang frowned.
, holding the hilt of the sword with one hand, and brushing the sword body with the other hand, his hand stayed on the bone for a moment. But he did not hesitate any more, but injected more power into the sword. The sword body glowed green and white, like pitch black.
The phosphorus fire burning slowly on the desolate bones at night lit up the faded cold dusk.
"stop."
Chili suddenly pulled his hand off the sword and pushed him aside. Facing the swarm of snakes, Chili suddenly pulled out the cloud mirror from his arms. The last breath of the setting sun was about to be swallowed up by the distant mountains.
A ray of light fell into the mirror, like sparks falling into sawdust, instantly lighting up everything. The dazzling white light reflected out, like a torrent that broke a bank, rolling down the hillside. Everyone covered their eyes and were touched by the light.
The snakes they touched all let out shrill screams that were almost human-like, both men and women, as if countless wandering souls in deserted tombs were being saved by some ancient and powerful scripture.
They are like handfuls of dry straw, burning quickly and burning out quickly. In an instant, the strange and terrifying snakes all over the slope turned into countless pitch-black dust. In the twilight, under the mirror light, they appeared one after another.
Obliterated by constant screams.
Xi Yu was finally calmed down. She stopped messing around and lost her strong sense of self-confidence. Although the panic did not appear on her face, the silent silence made her vaguely feel that she had lost some kind of bargaining chip.
On the contrary, the unrestrained and shrill laughter sounded in the night, very loud and clear.
"Hahahahahaha, hahahaha, my God, you have found it, you have indeed found it!" She Ji's original voice sounded a little hollow, and she didn't know where he was hiding, "As expected, as expected of Yun Waijing... Morning
What's the use of getting that map? It really took no effort at all. Thank you for sending it to my door. I really appreciate it - ugh."
The tone of the voice changed, and suddenly there was a hint of lamentation.
"If I had known, I wouldn't have kept that girl. I let her go home. I should have used it to threaten you, or get rid of her... But it doesn't matter, there are two left."
"You bastard, get out of here!"
Mu Wan yelled at the sky. She knew that She Ji was talking about Xie Hualing. Shanhai quickly pulled her to calm down. Dai Luan and Mo Liang looked at each other, and at the same time looked at Xi Yu, who was a little lost. Pay attention.
Catching their gazes, Xi Yu suddenly turned around and was about to run away. The two looked at each other again and stood up to chase him at the same time.
"Wait, A Yu!" Dai Luan shouted as he ran, "Xie Huayao! Where is A Ling's sister? In that big house, or somewhere else? Tell me! How is she?!
"
Xi Yu's movements were too fast, and her figure quickly shrank in the field of vision, getting further and further away. Running along the ridge of the slope, she slipped into the dense forest. At this time, Mo Liang's speed suddenly exceeded
Dai Luan. He clutched the sword, and his whole body was surrounded by a soft white light. Under this light, his speed was astonishingly fast, as if the child's legs no longer belonged to him. Dai Luan
Luan was stunned for a moment and tried to speed up to catch up with them.
The sound disappeared, and Mu Wan was so angry that she stamped her feet on the spot. Shan Hai took a breath and told her:
"Think again about what you just said."
"What are you thinking?!"
"Two people." Shan Hai said seriously, "He said two people."
Mu Wan fell silent. She calmed down and thought about it. Apart from Xie Huayao, the other person was probably her mother. Her mother was still alive, which made her feel a little comforted. But then, she fell into some kind of worry.
.
"What if he is lying to us? This guy is so scheming that everything he tells is false."
Shanhai patted her shoulder, comforted her and said:
"If you think about it carefully, they won't gain anything by killing her. If you are still uneasy, we will go and confront him."
Xiao didn't know when he stood next to Chi Li. He crossed his arms and said to Mu Wan:
"Don't panic, your mother and Xie Huayao are indeed alive and well. I can try to take you to see them. But Mo Liang and the others shouldn't chase them. We have to chase them back now."
Chili looked at the direction the children were leaving, then turned back and glanced at the cemetery down the mountain.
