Chapter 214
Chapter 214
In the twilight, two white paper lanterns swayed in the night wind, and the vermilion-colored gate was closed, rejecting outsiders' visits.
Jing Li stood on the stone steps in front of the gate, looking up at the gossip mirror hanging on the lintel. The supposedly clear mirror was shrouded in a layer of black air, making it impossible to see clearly inside.
No matter how big the blue-eyed three-eyed toad is, it is impossible for everyone in the whole city to fall for it. Someone must be manipulating it. How about more than one?
Since Master never specifically mentioned it, it is not impossible for this kind of monster to live in groups.
With a "squeak", the closed door slowly opened, revealing the dark doorway inside.
With a thought in Jing Li's mind, the Golden Sword of Huan Zi Liu has been transferred from his back to his hand.
In the huge mansion, only Jing Li's footsteps could be heard.
There are many plants and trees in the atrium, all of which are growing gratifyingly. While embellishing the entire mansion, those dense branches also block a lot of light that should have penetrated.
The further you go in, the denser the black mist becomes.
When Jing Li walked through the atrium, through the corridor, and walked to the backyard, two bright green balls appeared faintly in the corner, and the balls the size of duck eggs flickered, which was indescribably weird.
In the black mist, something was moving rapidly, making a rustling sound, which echoed continuously in the entire backyard.
Suddenly, countless sharp claws pierced out from the black mist, and with a sharp wind sound, they rushed towards Jing Li who was standing in the courtyard.
"!—"
After the sound of silk tearing, a red light flashed and blood spattered.
The bloody smell permeated instantly, and it became even sweeter in this decaying courtyard.
The snow-white hair was soaked in blood, and there were dark red dots on the ground. The standing person was half-kneeling on the ground in embarrassment due to excessive blood loss, clutching the wound, and panting heavily.
Another ghost figure flashed past the man behind, and three ferocious paw prints bloomed bright red flower buds on the back of the kneeling man.
A muffled "Plop", together with the body that fell to the ground, put an end to this invasion...
After a strange sound, the two bright greens that were originally in the corner slowly floated over, followed by the sound of overlapping footsteps.
The moon covered by clouds finally revealed half a month, adding a few rays of light to the backyard shrouded in darkness.
A huge two-foot-tall toad gradually emerged under the moonlight. Its bright green eyes, which were the size of duck eggs, narrowed slightly, dragged its heavy body, and moved slowly. Finally, the toad that had lost its vitality The intruder stopped.
A figure poked out from above the toad's head, glanced at the corpse on the ground, sneered disdainfully, patted the blue-eyed three-eyed toad under him, and signaled it to deal with the corpse.
"Tch--I thought there was something powerful here, able to find this place..." The man muttered softly, stretched lazily, and watched the blue-eyed three-eyed toad slowly devour the corpse. As soon as he wanted it to go back into the pool, he suddenly felt a stabbing pain in his abdomen, and the blood in his body seemed to be frozen at this moment.
He lowered his head in confusion, but saw something on his stomach, a cold light flashed under the moonlight, and he looked again, it was a sharp sword tip with a thin red line flowing on it.
Tick.
Tick.
Something dripped on the palm of the hand.
"how is this possible……"
The man's eyes widened in disbelief, looking at the bright color on his fingertips, he turned his head in a daze, trying to see the figure behind him clearly, but the boundless darkness rushed towards him. Seeing a strand of snow-white hair...
The blue-eyed three-eyed toad, who had just finished finishing work and cleaned up the ground, inexplicably felt that the stomach that had just been filled was starting to be hungry again. When the Lord was feeding, he felt a sharp pain in Tianling Gai, and then his body went limp, like a small mountain's body hit the ground heavily, a cloud of dust was raised, and there was no more movement.
Ming Tang looked at Jing Li who was separated by two corpses with a dark face, and asked dissatisfiedly, "Why did you make yourself so miserable?"
"?" Jing Li gave him a strange look, "It's just a phantom array."
The deity will not be affected, so it doesn't matter whether the self in the phantom array is dead or alive.
"It doesn't matter if it's fake." Mingtang looked indifferent to Jing Li, and couldn't help but start grinding his teeth. Although he knew it was fake, it was a fake made by the other party to lure these two guys into being fooled, but, damn it Does this white hair have no taboo at all? ! —Wouldn’t it be awkward to see your own body being eaten by such an ugly monster?
Jing Li: "..."
Could it be that this baby is an episode of cleanliness, but there are so many things to worry about if it is fake.
Jing Li twitched the corner of his mouth, and decided to skip this topic, "...how did you come here?"
What is "how did you come here"?
Said as if it was too much for him to come here, Mingtang snorted dissatisfied, "I still want to ask you, why did you leave without saying a word."
Jing Li glanced at him, and replied as a matter of course, "I can deal with these things by myself, there is no need to bother you."
Choking Ming Tang couldn't help grinding his teeth again, "I'm not afraid of trouble."
...Whoever has been saying that this place is stinky since he never entered the city, originally wanted him to stay in the inn, so as not to feel uncomfortable in a place full of devilish energy when he came here, who knew that this kid didn't appreciate it.
The two stood in place and stared at each other for a while, but it was Jing Li who took the lead to shift his gaze, and looked at the two corpses at his feet, which were of vastly different sizes. He was a little disappointed, "It's easier than I imagined."
Mingtang said disapprovingly, "How can something like this be so powerful that you need to use illusion to confuse people to get it."
This is true.
Jing Li snapped his fingers, and the red fire lotus instantly devoured the two corpses without leaving any trace.
"Let's go."
"Don't make yourself so miserable again later." Ming Tang still broods over this matter, following up with Jing Li, not forgetting to emphasize, "Illusions are not acceptable either."
No, it's better not to let this white hair do it, it's more convenient to do it yourself.
"..."
Inexplicably, I feel that Mingtang must be a Virgo...
There are five different places that Jing Li saw from Mingtang's eyes, which are distributed in every corner of the city. Considering that these demons are connected with each other, since one point has been selected, maybe the remaining four places will be all over the place. He had a feeling and made preparations in advance. In order to prevent any accidents from taking time, Jing Li suggested that the two of them split up. Anyway, considering the level of the demon they met just now, it would be no good even if they all went together. Worried, but unfortunately, Ming Tang disagreed, so he had to give up.
Unsurprisingly, none of the few demons in Pingqu City are particularly powerful in terms of force value. But because of the existence of the blue-eyed three-eyed toad, when those people stepped into the city, they used illusion to drag everyone away by the nose.
Seeing Ming Tang giving lunch to the demons and the blue-eyed three-eyed toad he raised in a very simple and rude manner, Jing Li couldn't help but click his tongue. Competing with himself, giving all kinds of lunch boxes to those whom he dislikes.
However, it is really surprisingly efficient...
The illusion of the blue-eyed three-eyed toad seems to have no effect on Ming Tang either, losing the life-saving skills it relies on to survive, the blue-eyed three-eyed toad is almost being beaten by the latter, and if the blue-eyed three-eyed toad can at least be attacked If it is a "painless bento", the treatment of the demons is obviously a lot worse. Before death, all kinds of ghosts and wolves howled. If he hadn't set up restrictions first, the whole city would probably be woken up by this movement.
Seeing that the last unlucky guy was about to hit the street, Jing Li had no choice but to remind, "They have been entrenched here for so long and killed so many people, they couldn't just kill for fun, just ask, What are they up to?"
Mingtang: "..."
Although he understood what Jing Li meant, why did this sound so awkward.
Jing Li hadn't realized the ambiguity of what he said just now, seeing Ming Tang standing still, he couldn't help asking in surprise, "Ming Tang?"
"……fine."
Hearing the words, the demon clan who was beaten by Mingtang, who was only half breathed, secretly rejoiced that this could be used as a bargaining chip to win a chance of survival. Just as he was about to speak out, he heard an indifferent voice above his head. "knew."
There was a sudden weight on the head, followed by heart-piercing pain, the whole head was like being pierced by an ice pick, the pain was so painful.
After a while, Mingtang let go of his hand, allowing the demon to slump to the ground, took out a glaring handkerchief that was as white as the clothes on him, and wiped his hands.
Jing Li twitched the corners of his mouth, patiently waiting for him to finish.
"Two things."
"?what?"
Ming Tang straightened his sleeves and said slowly, "First, there is still the most stinky bug here."
This is not too unexpected. One of these demons must be the leader here, and none of the demons they killed just now seem to be the leader.Jing Li nodded, indicating that he understood, and then asked, "What about the second one?"
"Don't you want to know what they are here for?" Ming Tang smiled, pointed to the ground, "Do you want to go down and have a look?"
