The owner of the lantern riddle couldn't help but be stunned.
"Tell me quickly, what is the answer to this lantern riddle!" With a "click", the giant sword on Xie Xuan's back was half unsheathed, and the exposed section shone with cold light, frightening the owner of the lantern riddle to turn pale and tremble on his lips: "Yan
, rouge, rouge——”
"Pickled for what?" Xie Xuan grabbed the palace lantern and shook it impatiently, "Pickled fish? Pickled meat? Don't fool me, these are not things used by women."
What a reckless man! Wang Liangmi was so angry that she clenched her teeth. She thought Wu Dalang had a sudden flash of inspiration, but unexpectedly he still acted recklessly, causing her to be embarrassed along with him.
A chuckle came from behind, and a folding fan was quickly handed to the owner of the lantern riddle. The fan with Butterfly Playing Peony held a shiny silver ingot, totaling twelve taels.
The young master holding the fan was Wang Xian. With a smile on his lips, he tilted his folding fan and said politely to the owner of the lantern riddle: "Old man, just tell me the lantern riddle, and this piece of silver will be yours."
Xie Xuan turned to glare at Wang Xian and shouted: "Niu Xiaosan, you are here to stir up trouble again. Are you itchy and want to be beaten?" Niu San is Niu Shilang's third son, and he has never dealt with him.
"That's a bad statement. A gentleman talks but doesn't do anything. In front of Madam Zhu, how can you and I humiliate you and me?" Wang Xian slowly took out another ingot of silver from his sleeve and put it on the folding fan, "Old man, two
Twelve!"
"Rouge!" The owner of the lantern riddle blinked, picked up the silver as quickly as possible, turned around and ran away. His movements were so quick that he didn't look like an old man at all.
"Silver?" Wang Xian didn't hear clearly. He was stunned when he heard the words, and then suddenly realized, "The answer to the riddle is not just silver. In fact, I have already guessed the answer to the riddle. Otherwise, how could I come up with the silver?" He glanced contemptuously.
He glanced at Xie Xuan, slowly swung his folding fan, and calmed down.
"No!" Xie Xuandao, "How can silver be used by women?"
"Rotten wood cannot be carved." Wang Xian snorted, "Which woman doesn't use silver or doesn't like silver? When you go to Qin Lou Chu Pavilion, how often does the young lady there not ask you for silver? It can be seen that silver is a woman's daily life.
Supplies.”
Xie Xuan was stunned for a while, then grabbed Wang Xian's lapel and said, "When have I ever been to the Qin Lou Chu Hall? You bastard, you are so blaming for someone's innocence!"
Wang Liangmi rolled her eyes at these two people: "It's Rouge! It's not Yin! You two go away quickly, don't embarrass me again!"
Xie Xuan straightened his back and glanced at Bai Ting. Wang Xian said, "Didn't you hear? Sister Zhu told you two to go away!"
"That's wrong." Wang Xian shook his folding fan, "Ms. Xinyi's words are clearly implying that Xiaocui and I are both hers, otherwise how could we say 'embarrass her'? We are hers, so we will be embarrassed."
, it’s the same as when my doorman, Ah Huang, got lost..."
Wang Liangmi couldn't stand the two people's nonsense, so she pulled Bai Ting to leave. Suddenly, several people came running towards her, shouting: "The evil cultivator is coming, please report to the prefect quickly!" "Run away, the evil cultivator is killing people anonymously."
"Anonymous is eating people in the street and removing their hearts!"
Evil Cultivator? Xie Xuan's eyes lit up: "I came just in time, my sword has been tossing and turning, and I am hungry and thirsty!" He pulled out the sword and ran away against the flow of people.
"Let's go and have a look!" Wang Liangmi grabbed Bai Ting and caught up with Xie Xuan. Wang Xian thought about it and followed.
On the street, a dozen policemen with sharp knives in hand were questioning the fleeing people while heading in the direction of Zhikarizhen, and happened to bump into Shi Chong and his group.
When the Eight Demons of Jingu saw the menacing team of police officers coming from a distance, their faces changed color.
"Human race, hurry up!" The big elephant demon man paused, his trunk muscles flexed, and his nostrils sprayed out an irritable and restless white breath, "Which one of you has leaked the damn news?"
All the monsters looked at each other, and Shi Chong hesitated and said: "Isn't it possible? If the matter is exposed, it will be the elite city guards of Jinling Mansion who come to arrest us, not these lowly police officers."
The thin rat demon flapped its ears a few times and said eagerly: "I heard the sound of horse hooves, coming this way! There are many horses, they must be city guards!"
The Eight Demons of Jingu suddenly panicked, and the ring-eyed tiger demon said in a ferocious voice: "Anyway, you will die, let's fight! I'll stop them, you go catch that bitch!" He kicked his feet, and his whole body was like an evil tiger pouncing on food.
It flew several feet in the air, rushed towards the policeman, and let out a deafening roar.
Supernatural power - tiger roar!
Strong winds blew, sand and rocks flew, and invisible sound waves spewed out from the tiger demon's bloody mouth like a rolling avalanche. The policemen were hit with bleeding from their mouths and noses, and they staggered around. The lanterns on both sides of the street also rolled and flew into a mess.
"Let's go!" The old camel demon made a quick decision and turned around into the alley on the side. Shi Chong felt something was wrong, but the other monsters ran away, so he could only follow the crowd.
With a "plop", the three-petaled rabbit demon suddenly fell down halfway and rolled on the ground, letting out a scream of pain. Colorful bugs came out from his nostrils and ears, covering the entire face in the blink of an eye.
Face.
"His insect rotting orifice curse has taken effect!" the charming woman said in a trembling voice.
The camel demon was shocked: "How could this be? Isn't there still one day before the poisonous curse will take effect? Why is it suddenly advanced?"
"The bones in the rabbit's body must be too weak to withstand the poisonous spell. Leave him alone, let's arrest him quickly, otherwise everyone will die!" The elephant demon was angry and frightened, and his long nose twitched suddenly, blocking a few of them.
Passers-by in front were swept away.
The wild-haired dog demon sniffed around and pointed to the west of the city: "The girl named Zhu is in that direction, heading towards Zhuque Bridge!"
"How did you get to Zhuque Bridge?" The fox demon's eyes showed surprise, "The personal maid clearly told me that they would go to Xuanwu Street to enjoy the lanterns."
The dog demon sniffed again and again, and said decisively: "You can't be wrong, her scent is going to the Suzaku Bridge!"
"Then go to the Suzaku Bridge!" The Elephant Demon anxiously turned around and ran away.
Shi Chong became increasingly uneasy. Before they could see Governor Zhu's daughter, accidents happened one after another, giving him an ominous premonition.
"Surround the evil cultivator!" "He got into the alley!" "I saw it, the evil cultivator is over there!" The shouts came one after another, and the harsh sound of the policemen beating gongs kept ringing all around, approaching Zhikarizhen.
The streets and alleys are brightly lit, and there are people everywhere who come out to enjoy the lanterns. No matter where Zhikarizhen escapes, he will be found quickly, as if he is being stared at by countless pairs of eyes, and it is difficult to escape. There are also many people
, the demon was greedy for the bonus offered by the official document, and pursued him fiercely, pressing hard all the way.
At the end of the alley, a horse of cold light rushed out diagonally, carrying a whistling sword energy and slashing towards Zhikarizhen.
This person had been lying in wait until the target ran out of the alley, and then he made a sudden attack. The sword flash was fast and fierce, and it went straight to the blind spot on the left side of Zhikarima's sight. The timing was perfect.
The most bizarre thing is that this person's cultivation level is only at the middle level of refining Qi, but when he uses his sword, he can activate the vitality of the world and form a powerful sword force that seems to be carrying the entire long street and slashing straight at him.
The high wall beside the alley, the hanging lanterns, the houses on both sides, the stone slabs underfoot... all seemed to have generated invisible sword energy, and they all struck out at Zhikarizhen with this sword!
