Returning from the abyss

Chapter 446 Truncation
Jingwen's room is at the back of this series of quiet rooms. Lu Ning noticed that although Jingrui was wearing a pair of wooden slippers, she didn't make any noise in the corridor. If they all had this skill, it would be difficult to ask.

The reason why she came after her was because when she was observing on the roof, besides what happened in the shop, there were a few onlookers around.Todd's disappearance and reappearance may not be clear to those downlines, but those who are slightly superior must have noticed.Then the person sent to monitor the situation should be an insider, and they will not enter the most dangerous range, but just find a location farther away to observe quietly.

Among the people Lu Ning saw, only one left early, around the time when the red light in the room couldn't hide it.At that time, the guards hadn't come over yet, and the real danger inside hadn't been clarified yet. Most people still maintained a spectator attitude. Of course, there was something wrong with the people who left suddenly at this time.However, Lu Ning followed the footsteps of this person and found a group of monks in knots, which gave her a guess.

When she sorted out her complicated thoughts, Jingrui had already knocked on Jingwen's door.Compared to Jingrui, Jingwen's figure is slightly shorter and thinner, but she feels very strong.After the monk opened the door, he bowed to Jingrui, and then bowed to Lu Ning and Deleya in turn.

"Jingwen, these two ladies have something to ask, I wonder if it's convenient for you now?" Jingrui asked.

"No inconvenience." Jingwen smiled slightly, stepped aside and opened the door, allowing the three of them to walk in.

Sandalwood was burning inside the house, and the layout was clean and tidy. It was impossible to infer where he had been from the traces.Lu Ning simply sat down and asked directly: "This monk, I want to ask about your whereabouts."

"The poor monk is just looking at the world, and there are traces everywhere. I don't know which place you are asking about?"

"After nightfall, where did you go before you came back here?"

Jing Wen thought for a while, and then replied: "The poor monk took some fast food at dusk, and then he smelled the night view of the hanging corridor or the uniqueness here, so he went up to it, and then lingered. You shouldn't be so addicted when you wake up. At that time, it was getting late, and occasionally there seemed to be a fire in the southeast. In the spirit of saving people from the fire and water, I waited to rescue them. Unexpectedly, on the way, the guards went ahead and sealed off the surrounding area. The poor monk was not allowed to enter, so he had to return return."

Di Liya next to her felt dizzy when she heard it, but Lu Ning still accepted it well.

"That is to say, you went to the hanging corridor and saw the fire, but you came back before arriving at the scene?"

"exactly."

This kind of description is actually very vague, and it is obviously not enough as a testimony, but Lu Ning is not really interrogating other people, and he really asked someone to tell a detailed itinerary down to the second. I am afraid that the two people next to him will have opinions.

"Monk, I still have two questions. I don't know if I can answer them truthfully?"

"Monks don't tell lies. If I know, I will tell the truth." Jingwen smiled slightly.

"You and Master Jingrui are both monks in knots, why do you sit quietly indoors while the other wanders in the streets?"

Delia froze for a moment when she heard this question, looked at Lu Ning, and felt that it had nothing to do with what she asked before.

"The method we practice is the method of visualization. It is only because the shapes and objects we take are different that we can act differently. What Jingrui observes is my appearance. A quiet room, a heaven and earth, one person, and one mind are enough. What the poor monk sees is the appearance of all living beings, and he tastes and travels among all living beings, and understands all kinds of life, and takes all things as a mirror, so that he can reflect his original mind, this is the difference of Tao.”

Lu Ning nodded slightly, while Di Leya stared, her expression probably meant to say "speak human".

"Thank you for your clarification. Then for the second question, there should be many differences between the monks, and you and Master Jingrui are both monks in knots. I don't know how to explain this name?"

After hearing this, Jingwen smiled slightly.

"As people in the world often say, it should be a knot for a kalpa. When the kalpa is close to the calendar, you will be successful and perfect. This is a monk in knots. However, we are actually traveling around the world, measuring the soil of the world with our feet, and walking like this It's convenient, and doesn't have any profound meaning."

The tone of the question and answer between him and Lu Ning was calm, neither hasty nor impatient, and he didn't feel any guilty conscience. There seemed to be no problem with what he answered. Lu Ning hadn't studied Buddhism or the like, so even if there was a problem, he couldn't hear it.

However, this is enough.

"So, then Master Jingrui, do you have any advice?"

Lu Ning turned her head with a smile.

Jingrui lowered her head and sang a Buddha's name, and then one hand suddenly came out from under her ribs, the golden light in her palm was shining, she slammed Jingwen's chest, and she shouted angrily, like spring thunder bursting out of her tongue!
"Where is the thief! How dare you pretend to be me, a monk in knots!!"

Jingrui made a sudden attack, and Jingwen was also a little flustered, but she leaned back and closed her hands together, Jingrui's palm struck him three inches in front of him, but she couldn't make any progress.

Lu Ning rolled back, away from the place where the battle could affect, at the same time, two pieces of parchment floated out of her hand, and slid from both sides to the back of Jingwen.

"Jingrui! You and I have been together for a long time, why did you do it suddenly..." Jingwen was empty, and just about to open her mouth, Jingrui shook her wrist, shattering the shackles in the air.

"Thief! Do you think I can't see it? If it weren't for today's interrogation, I'm afraid I wouldn't know that my companions around me have already suffered an accident! Tell me! Where is Jingwen now?"

Jingwen stood up with the support of the ground with the help of the vibrations, with a peaceful smile on her face: "Jingwen... of course, I have already met my Buddha, Jingrui, and you two women, It's a pity why the good-natured meddling in this matter?"

He shook his head slightly, stretched his hands from behind, and pulled out two snow-white bone knives, Jingrui's eyes changed immediately when he saw it: "Monk who broke the precepts!"

"I thought that with my knowledge, it would not be difficult to pretend to be a knotted monk. Before you die, why don't you give me some advice? Jingrui, where is my disguise wrong?" "Jing Wen" asked with a smile.

"Start after we talked." Lu Ning said later.

She asked those questions not because of anything else, but because she noticed that Jingrui's emotions were abnormal. After all, this monk was still in the process of practicing, and he could not achieve the state of being neither angry nor angry.So there are only two purposes for her to ask questions, one is to attract the full attention of "Jing Wen", and the other is to try to make "Jing Wen" answer her own related questions with long sentences.

Of course, Lu Ning didn't know exactly where the problem was.

"Your disguise is almost flawless, and your answer may even be more perfect than the real Jingwen." Jingrui also stood up, confronting the broken monk, "but you are not the real knotted monk."

"Oh?" The broken monk smiled politely, "Please clarify."

"The monk in knots travels around the world, practices Buddhism, and contemplates people's hearts. These are all good. But you probably haven't investigated our background carefully."

"...Birthplace?"

"We are the children of a rich family. We do not rely on seeking charity, but rely on our own ability to earn wealth. We are different from ordinary monks because we don't live in temples and do not receive incense. Therefore...we never think of The poor monk claimed that it was because the monks did not tell lies." Jingrui's face sank like water, "At least in my line of work, no one has this habit. I am afraid that since you replaced Jingwen, you have been out for many days because you were worried about being found out. Haven't had many exchanges with fellow travelers."

"Habits are hard to change." Lu Ning shook her head slightly, "And monks don't use this kind of self-proclaiming. He probably has no chance to notice this problem at all."

"So that's how it is. The poor monk still has a worldly favor." The monk who broke the precepts nodded lightly, "Thank you for clarifying the confusion. As a thank you, the poor monk will save the three without pain. I believe that the three will have great fortune in the next life."

Just as he lifted the bone knife, white light suddenly bloomed in the room, and a sacred bell echoed in everyone's minds. Even the monk who broke the precepts had to raise his hand to cover his face. Ning and Jingrui felt that the light was very gentle, and even relieved their inner tension when facing the broken monk.

"Too confident is not a good thing, Monk."

Delia stood in front of the two holding the long sword. Two pairs of ribbon-like long wings formed by pure light spread out from her back. Although she didn't have any armor on her body, it seemed to be covered with a layer of light-cast In the battle robe, the blond hair also exudes a golden color that is as dazzling as the sun.

Compared with the ugly form ten minutes ago, this is the image that really fits Lu Ning's heart of an angel.

"Paladin... have you received a 'blessing'? No! You are not an apprentice or a visiting scholar..."

"When did I say that I am?" Delia stretched out her hand and flicked on the sword, pure white thunder wrapped around the sword, and the monk who broke the precepts immediately took two steps back again.

"You are a servant!"

"Yes, let me see what you are capable of!"

After Di Leya yelled this sentence, she rushed directly to the broken monk, and the broken monk also crossed his swords, a layer of filthy breath coated the blade, and the swords flicked, holding Di Leya's long sword.The pure white lightning was immediately polluted, and even the holy light around Delia was dimmed.

"Unfortunately, I happen to be very good at polluting these pure justices - oops!"

Before the monk who broke the precepts wanted to show off his power, he hadn't finished speaking before it turned into a loud cry.Green flames ignited on his clothes, and even a moderate explosion occurred. Although it would not really hurt his life, it was enough to disrupt the key rhythm of this kind of battle.

"Did the excessive magic explode in the end instead of playing a real role?" Lu Ning looked at the results of the two temporary formations with a little trouble. As for the monk who broke the precepts, he was obviously weakened by such an explosion. It is already difficult to fight against Delia.

After two more sword strikes, the bone knife of the monk who broke the precepts was cut in two by Delia, and even a lightning bolt grazed between his chest and ribs. This kind of pain was no longer tolerable for him. While screaming, the broken monk scratched his arm with the bone knife that was still intact, and the blood gushed out, which immediately dimmed the light a lot, and the broken monk disappeared into the room.

"Bloodlight escape, it's ruthless enough." Delia stomped her feet, turned her head and said to Lu Ning and Jingrui, "You wait here, I must catch up with him!" out.

Lu Ning and Jingrui couldn't chase so fast, but they couldn't really wait here. The two climbed out of the window one after another, desperately chasing the light debris left by Deleya when she flew past. Panting, he even ran into a rocky mountain in the Emerald District.

This kind of place is usually vacated for practical magic exercises. Of course, there is no one in the middle of the night. Delia is bright like a huge light bulb, which is really conspicuous. Lu Ning is a little weak, and Jingrui also slows down. Following her, the two walked towards the chaotic rocks together, and since Delia followed, she was not worried about the monk breaking the precepts sneaking up on them.

But not far away, I heard Delia shout: "Who are you!"

It happened that Lu Ning turned around a standing stone and saw the situation at Delia's place.She stood on an arched stone, pointing her sword at the front, and there was an unreal shadow in front of her. The only real thing was that this shadow was pinching the throat of the broken monk.

"Let him go! Show your identity! Otherwise, I will attack you!"

Naturally, the shadow would not respond, but pierced the top of the monk's head with the finger of the other hand, and then pulled it out instantly. A trace of blue was brought out from the blood line, and then threw it into his neck.

"Hey!"

Delia didn't expect the shadow to be so decisive, so she rushed forward with her sword. The thunder entwined instantly illuminated the shadow, but still couldn't reveal the opponent's true face. The shadow threw the broken monk away, and her body dissolved like a puddle of mud On the ground, there was nothing left, and Delia's sword hit the stone without making any achievements.

Lu Ning and Jingrui ran over in a hurry, first to see that Di Leya was fine, and then at the broken monk on the ground.

He was already dead, with a serene smile on his face, and blood was still flowing from the blood hole on his forehead, which looked indescribably weird in such an environment.

"That damned guy..." Delia scratched at the shadow-dissolving stone, but there was nothing.

Jingrui sighed, and began to recite scriptures in a low voice, while Lu Ning began to examine the body of the broken monk.

Nothing at all.

There is nothing for contact, nor anything similar to verify identity, just like his room.And even if he died, there was no mark on his neck that should have been left by being pinched just now, only the fatal blood hole on his head.

The trail is broken.

Although Lu Ning knew it would be like this - the drama hasn't even started yet, how could it be possible for you to reveal all the behind-the-scenes so early in a scene?But she was still a little reconciled.

"Don't be discouraged, this matter must be investigated! I will report this matter to the pastor. If there are such dangerous elements in Evalang, how can I lecture with peace of mind? The Magic Council must not ignore this matter!" Delia He said angrily, "Visitors were secretly replaced, this kind of thing certainly did not happen alone!"

"Then I would like to thank Ms. Delia." Jingrui sighed, "I didn't know you were an accompanying attendant before, so please don't take offense if your words are uncomfortable."

"You guys just need to speak in a normal way..." Delia waved her hand, and reached out to grab the corpse of the broken monk on the ground. "As for this corpse, I will take it away as evidence first."

"Please also pay attention. This monk should be at the level of a mage in the general classification. His strength is extraordinary, but he was still killed without resistance. If you are worried about being alone and alone, we can also help a little."

Delia continued to have a headache.
