Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 385 A Sudden New Skill

Xu Zhiqiong sat up slowly.

Xu Zhiqiong was very excited after inhaling the air machine.

But his meridians were swollen, and his body was a little clumsy.

You have to find a way to get the energy out of your body.

The fastest way is to use a tiger to kill and chop. After dozens of cuts, the excess energy will be almost dissipated.

But this is the East Palace, and Lu Yunxi is still squatting at the door. If Xu Zhiqiong accidentally demolishes the house, Lu Yunxi will definitely not let him go.

We are a judge, not a vulgar martial artist, just to dissipate our energy, so there is no need to make such a big noise.

Besides, Xu Zhiqiong still has serious business to do.

He took out a small paper bag from his arms, and poured out a few beans from it.

This is his specially configured bait, which is irresistibly attractive to mice. Even if they are two or three miles away, they will eagerly rush to Xu Zhiqiong's embrace.

After a while, a mouse really rushed over.

Xu Zhiqiong pounced on the tiger, but failed to pounce on the mouse, poked his head on the ground, and accidentally swallowed a piece of bait.

In the past, there was no need to hit the target, and one eye contact would be enough to succeed.

But today, with excess energy, Xu Zhiqiong's skills were extremely uncoordinated, and his skills were not smooth. After three consecutive efforts, he finally controlled a mouse.

Xu Zhiqiong was attached to the mouse, and suddenly felt a lot lighter. He sneaked out of the door along the crack of the door, and saw Lu Yunxi and a group of servants staring at the door, not daring to slack off.

Xu Zhiqiong raised his front paws, sat on his tail, and looked at the group of servants triumphantly.

Just stare here, and see what you can figure out.

A servant suddenly shouted: "There is a mouse!"

Lu Yunxi shouted: "Kill!"

The servant picked up the broom and came to beat him, Xu Zhiqiong ran out of the East Palace in a flash.

Walking north along the East Palace, Xu Zhiqiong's destination is the Secret Pavilion.

The palace was much cooler than before, because the emperor was not here.

Emperor Zhaoxing died, and the new emperor has not yet ascended the throne, so the servants and imperial guards in the palace are much more relaxed.

It is said that a country cannot be without a king for a day. It is a joke to think about it. In the absence of emergencies, the monarch is basically redundant. The cabinet and ministers can handle daily affairs in an orderly manner.

Passing through the Zuoye Gate and Chongwen Academy, Xu Zhiqiong came all the way to the Secret Pavilion.

There were a few guards standing at the door, dozing off in a very deep sleep.

Why do you sleep so deeply?

The palace guards shouldn't look like this, even if they are lazy, they can just take a nap, and now they are even snoring.

Is it a trick?
Xu Zhiqiong raised his guard and carefully sneaked into the courtyard. Instead of rushing into the secret pavilion, he lay down under the bed and listened quietly.

someone!

More than one person.

In the secret pavilion, there seemed to be the sound of dozens of footsteps passing through the secret pavilion.

What are these people doing in the secret pavilion in the middle of the night?

Are there any ministers discussing matters here?

No, these people's steps are extremely light, and they all have cultivation bases.

Sixteen, nineteen, twenty-six... a total of thirty-one people.

It's hard to say whether it will be dangerous to go in so rashly.

But I am a mouse, as long as the opponent's cultivation base is not too high, I shouldn't be able to see the flaws.

Xu Zhiqiong leaned over and carefully slipped in through the crack of the door. Although the main hall of the Secret Pavilion was pitch black, mice had excellent night vision.

But Xu Zhiqiong looked at it for a while, but didn't see a single figure.

The footsteps are still there, where have everyone gone?
While looking around, he suddenly saw a figure more than one inch tall passing by. Xu Zhiqiong took a closer look and found that it was a paper figure.

The paper man groped around under the vase, and there was another above it.

There are six bookshelves, and they are searching layer by layer.

Five or six were crawling on the wall, groping for the gaps in the wall.

No wonder the footsteps are so light, how big can a piece of paper move?

Who controls so many paper figurines to explore the secret pavilion at night?
This is obviously yin and yang.

If Xu Zhiqiong himself was here, he should be able to find the source of the spell.

But having said that, if the deity is here, the opponent will either run away, or have to fight Xu Zhiqiong.

A paper figurine slipped under the couch and was caught in a mousetrap.

Xu Zhiqiong almost laughed out loud, which was considered a stepping stone for him.

Two other paper figurines got under the desk, this time Xu Zhiqiong couldn't laugh anymore.

There is a pedal in the lower room of the desk. Chen Shuncai said that stepping on the pedal five times will open a hidden compartment.

There is something Xu Zhiqiong wants in this dark space, so these paper figurines shouldn't be able to get there first, right?
As a mouse, it is not difficult to deal with these paper figurines, but the key problem is that Xu Zhiqiong does not know who is manipulating these paper figurines behind the scenes, and if he strikes rashly, he will expose his mouse possessing skills to others.

A paper figurine searched under the desk for a while, and seemed to have found something, he got into the floor, and got out again after a while.

It found the dark space.

All the paper figurines stopped searching immediately, lined up in the hall, and got out of the secret cabinet through the crack of the door, leaving only one paper figurine lying on the mousetrap.

Xu Zhiqiong sneaked out of the yard quietly, watching the paper figurine go away quickly.

The person manipulating them is in the palace, that person may show up at any time and steal the things in the secret compartment!
Without further ado, Xu Zhiqiong must bring the deity here as soon as possible.

He kept digging the ground, and left a peach blossom-shaped mark in a blink of an eye. With this mark, Xu Zhiqiong could send himself to the secret pavilion through the yin-yang magic circle.

Now the mouse has only one task left, to run back to the East Palace as fast as possible to ensure that Xu Zhiqiong's true self can come to the secret pavilion ahead of the other party.

Before running out of the yard, Xu Zhiqiong heard footsteps.

That person is here?

So fast!
"Zhiqiong, Zhiqiong!"

How does he still know my name?
How did he know that this mouse was me!
Xu Zhiqiong was shocked, his eyes suddenly went dark.

Why is it dark?

Ambush?

Xu Zhiqiong struggled to open his eyes, and saw a strange scene.

He saw the prince first, and then the courtyard of the secret pavilion.

The prince came to the secret pavilion?

No, the two lines of sight are no longer in the same space.

Xu Zhiqiong rubbed his eyes, and the two images gradually separated.

The left eye is the prince, the prince in the wing room.

The right eye is the courtyard of the secret pavilion.

There is a dark line in the middle.

What's wrong with this?
The prince entered the wing room where Xu Zhiqiong lived, and woke up Xu Zhiqiong who was sleeping.

It's not the prince's fault, the prince is really worried about Xu Zhiqiong.

But the main question is, why was Xu Zhiqiong woken up?
The main body, Xu Zhiqiong, who was lying in the wing room, slowly sat up.

Yes, he sat up.

In the case of a rat, his yidam is unconscious and incapable of action.

But now consciousness has been restored, and people can move.

Xu Zhiqiong raised his left hand, looked at it, and was sure that he could move it.

At the same time, the mouse in the courtyard of the Secret Pavilion also sat on the ground and raised its left front paw.

The prince held Xu Zhiqiong's hand, and asked with concern: "Are you feeling better? I can't sleep, I've been thinking about you."

"Okay, better." Xu Zhiqiong can still speak!

His tone was a little tight, and his expression was a little stiff.

Seeing that Xu Zhiqiong's condition is not very good, the crown prince was sweating anxiously: "Why don't we go to Tai Bu now?"

"Looking for Taibo? Why are you looking for him? He's crazy. I, I really feel better now, but I just feel tired." Xu Zhiqiong's thoughts are messed up, and the situation in the secret pavilion is very urgent. The prince will leave as soon as possible.

Lu Yunxi hurriedly said: "Your Highness, since Xu Qianhu feels tired, let him rest early. I will invite Tai Bu here tomorrow morning."

The prince said angrily: "I asked you to send someone to invite you, why do you have to wait until tomorrow morning?"

"The old slave sent someone to go, Tai Bu has fallen asleep, please don't move!"

"I'll invite him myself!"

Xu Zhiqiong grabbed the crown prince and said: "Your Highness, let me take a nap, and I will be fine after a while! Let's go to the Yin Yang Division after dawn."

Lu Yunxi pulled the crown prince beside him and said, "His Royal Highness, just listen to Xu Qianhu, and I will be the District Office tomorrow!"

After trying his best to persuade the prince to leave, Xu Zhiqiong kept rubbing his eyes.

No matter how much you rub it, it's useless, there are still two eyes, one is on the main body, and the other is on the mouse.

Is this... split soul?

Is this the soul-splitting technique that Master said?

He said at the beginning that I couldn't learn it, but now I suddenly can.

What is the reason?
Is it because you sucked that monster too hard?
Is it because the aura of the true god has triggered the potential?
Now that the soul has been separated, how can it be taken back?
Xu Zhiqiong mobilized the power of imagery, trying to call back the soul of the mouse, but the right half of his face was distorted, but it didn't help.

Using the magic circle, go to the secret pavilion, and join the mouse, Xu Zhiqiong will have a way to get his soul back.

He took out mercury and two peach petals, drew a circle on the ground, and sprinkled the mercury.

No response, the magic circle is not working!

Is it because of the restrictions on Yin Yang in the palace?

No, it's not restricted, it's because the magic circle didn't activate at all.

Xu Zhiqiong's magic circle was inaccurate, he only had one eye's sight, and there was a problem with his sense of distance.

Ruler, and ruler.

Xu Zhiqiong took out the ruler and drew the magic circle again, and this time the magic circle took effect.

Xu Zhiqiong walked to the magic circle, and the peach petals turned into a rain of peach blossoms, leading him to the secret pavilion.

The line of sight is more or less unified. Although the perspectives are different, one is high and the other is low, at least the environment is the same.

The mouse stood in front of Xu Zhiqiong, with his back to Xu Zhiqiong.

Xu Zhiqiong walked forward, and the mouse also walked forward.

The soul is separated, but the consciousness is inseparable. Whatever Xu Zhiqiong does, the mouse does too.

Fortunately, Xu Zhiqiong's stride was bigger than that of the mouse, so he walked around in front of the mouse with difficulty, looked at each other twice, and the mouse was free and ran out of the yard.

Xu Zhiqiong rubbed the center of his brows, his vision finally returned to normal.

The scalp was throbbing, and the feeling of being separated for the first time was very bad.

Xu Zhiqiong recovered quickly, walked carefully to the secret pavilion, and was about to open the door to enter when he suddenly remembered something.

There is also a paper figurine under the couch, caught in a mousetrap.

Unable to let the paper man see him, Xu Zhiqiong used the eighth-grade skill to become invisible, sneaked into the secret pavilion, leaned over and saw that the mousetrap was broken, and the paper man stood quietly under the couch.

Xu Zhiqiong didn't act hastily, but quietly waited and watched beside the couch.

But seeing the paper figurine standing for a while, it suddenly grew in size until it became more than seven feet tall.

The taller paper figurine gradually bulged, from a piece of paper to a paper puppet.

The surface of the puppet melted, changed again, and turned into a person.

What a brilliant technique!

This person covered his face, but Xu Zhiqiong recognized his figure at a glance, because this figure was so familiar.

The Green Lantern who was in charge of the yamen in the past, now Xiao Situ of the Nufu Sect——Xiao Songting.

Xiao Songting quietly came under the desk and lightly touched the floor.

He knew there was a hidden compartment below, but he didn't know how to open it.

He wanted to try to use yin and yang techniques to lift up the floor, but the dark grid had restrictions on yin and yang techniques, so he tried twice without success.

At this time, a mandarin duck blade was quietly pressed against his neck.
