Taoist night sword

Chapter 23: Chapter 23

"Is this true?" He Fang hesitated to go in and asked Lou Jinchen.

Lou Jinchen looked up at the sky. The sun was so hot that he felt very hot. As for the question of where, he was sure, because the eyes of these people made him feel the truth.

For him with keen senses, these gazes seemed to have weight, and when they fell on him, he could clearly feel them.

Lou Jinchen heard someone among them say: "Why didn't I see them approaching, and suddenly appeared."

"Yeah, maybe some kind of evasion spell was used." Someone said.

Lou Jinchen approached, they stopped talking, someone called He Fang's name.

He Fang's face turned red, he didn't know if he could respond, in his home school, in a strange place, he must never respond to being called by an unknown person's name.

He didn't know whether these people were familiar with those colleagues.

Lou Jinchen saw this scene, but didn't say anything.

He walked towards Deng Butou, Deng Butou also saw him, Lou Jinchen felt that he might not know about his disappearance just now.

He immediately told him what had just happened.

There were also a few people around Deng Butou, all of whom were monks in Yushui City. After hearing this, they showed surprise on their faces. They didn't quite believe Lou Jinchen's words, because they didn't feel anything at all.

"I waited here, and I didn't feel any discomfort, and I didn't see anything weird." A middle-aged monk next to him said.

Lou Jinchen looked at the other people again, and found that they didn't believe it either, so Lou Jinchen didn't say anything, while Deng Butou frowned. It wasn't that he didn't believe it, but that he might really meet this time. On the 'sly god epidemic'.

If this is the case, then I and others are likely to have been contaminated.

"Then what is the reason why we can't see it?" Deng Butou asked.

Lou Jinchen shook his head, he was also thinking about it.

After all, in his opinion, there are too many things invisible to the naked eye. The easiest way is to cover yourself with things, so that others can't see you. Open the lid.

Another kind is that you clearly see it, but you don't know that you have seen it. This is ignorance and a kind of concealment.

Lou Jinchen thought of the books he got from the temple master. There is a record of "Travel Notes and Experiences" that says: "I met a man who practiced the law by chance. He picked bird feathers and made clothes. He wore them in the mountains and forests. The herb collectors appeared among the trees and gliding among the valleys. I asked why. His words could only be passed on from word to mouth. There are big birds in this mountain that look like humans. Birds can fly in the sky, so I will Can really fly in the sky."

"I have never seen such a spell before, so I inquired about the method he cultivated. At the beginning, I didn't say anything, but later I said that I would like to praise him. Only then did I say that the method he cultivated is a magic method, which is a combination of the two schools of secret food and sacrifice to the gods." Created."

Thinking of this, Lou Jinchen also wondered if there might be someone practicing some kind of magic here, because in that book "Travel Notes and Experiences", there was a comment by the author, saying: "Yu Fang knows the method obtained by the God Sacrifice School, so he can use it as a magic weapon." Like the flowers in the mirror and the moon in the water, they need to be cultivated in the world, but if they are successful, the method does not know where it originated, and the technique does not know where it came from."

This Xujiakeng was originally a village for worshiping gods, and Xu Xin who came from Matoupo was involved in it, so Lou Jinchen wondered if it was Xu Xin who was practicing.

"If so, then I broke her law, is this another enmity?" Lou Jinchen looked around, surrounded by green mountains, he couldn't be sure if someone was peeping somewhere.

Everyone didn't believe that they had disappeared, they only said that even if there was something, Lou Jinchen planted an illusion, and Lou Jinchen didn't argue, after all, he couldn't explain it very clearly, even he himself didn't quite understand it.

A few people quickly decided to enter this Xukeng village, to determine as soon as possible whether there was a divine fall in this village, and if so, whether there was a "sly god epidemic". As long as it is confirmed, everyone can call it a day and go back. I am preparing to spend the night here, but everyone is willing to go back as soon as possible.

The village is not big, and there are rows of houses, but the houses are tall and short, new and old. They are not as beautiful as Dujiazhuang, and it can be seen that they are not so rich, because some of the walls of the houses here are made of dirt, and some of them are old. It's wooden boards, a few masonry houses.

This is a poor village.

Lou Jinchen felt this way when he looked at the fields outside the village. The crops in the fields did not look lush and did not grow well, as if the people here had no intention of farming.

Among the people traveling together, besides Deng Butou and Lou Jinchen, there were three other people. Among the three, Lou Jinchen didn't know their schools of practice. What's more, he felt that the schools of practice in this world could actually be mutually compatible. Changxiu, as long as he can grasp it, he can graft and merge at will.

Among them, the one who was most skeptical of what Lou Jinchen said was holding a yellow talisman with a sun-like rune drawn in cinnabar on the yellow talisman.

When he held the Dao Talisman in his hand, the brilliance on the Talisman and the sun's rays reflected each other, almost indistinguishable from each other, Lou Jinchen called him the Talisman Master.

There is another one, an old man, taciturn, wearing a thick black robe, and his body exudes coldness under the sun. Every time Lou Jinchen looks at him, there is a kind of burning eyes It feels like he knows that this is the condensed mind of the other party, just like when Shang Guian and Deng Ding channeled themselves that day, their souls were almost injured by the sword intent of their body. Chen couldn't tell what he was cultivating at all.

The third one was wearing only a vest-like clothes, two muscular arms were exposed, and his muscles were as iron-colored. Lou Jinchen could tell that he was a master of boxing, and he called him a boxer.

As soon as the five of them entered Xukeng Village, they saw weird eyes painted everywhere.

Eyes are painted on the walls, on the door, on the table, on the stove, on the head of the bed, and on the beams of the roof.

Those eyes are big or small, gloomy, fierce, joyful, sad, some horizontally, some vertically, some obliquely, and the color of the eyeballs is different, here There are very few pairs of eyes.

"Nephew Jinchen, I heard that there is also an illusion of eyes possessing bodies in Matoupo, is it the same as here?" Deng Butou asked after seeing so many eyes.

"Same." Lou Jinchen replied affirmatively.He already has a guess now.

Xu Xin, who was born in this Xufang Village, after entering Matoupo with Du Desheng, did not know whether there was a sacrifice or some other method, which made the gods that Xujiakeng had always believed in descend, and occupied Matoupo for use. The suppressed God statue in the Earth Temple, that's why the statue is covered with pimples, and inside the pimples are eyes.

And during that sacrifice, this Xu Xin obtained the magic of the "eye" god, and the magic that he got from the "god" needs to be cultivated if he wants to truly display it in the world, just like It is a spell seed replanted in the world.

There is also an ancestral hall in this Xukeng village, but this ancestral hall does not enshrine the ancestors' spiritual tablets, but a huge cut white wood, on which various eyes are carved with paint.

There is a courtyard in the ancestral hall, and there is water in the courtyard. The sunlight from the sky shines into the water, and you can see the clear bottom, a long strip of stone, which seems to have eyes engraved on it.

The entire ancestral hall is bright and penetrating except for the courtyard which is illuminated by the sun's rays, and the rest of the temple is dark because of the light. There are actually overlapping shadows, which makes it difficult to see clearly.

Especially as soon as Lou Jinchen came in, he felt the whole ancestral hall was filled with an inexplicable magic rhyme.

He followed behind, watched everyone spread out, and looked around in the ancestral hall where you could see the front and back at a glance. He was standing in the courtyard and looked at the sky. Not so hot anymore.

Looking at the other people, his heart shrank suddenly. He found that the figures of other people were about to disappear in the shadows. Their bodies seemed to be covered by shadows, and the words between them were also blocked by the shadows. He counted , found that someone has disappeared.

Deng Butou was standing not far away, his figure was in the shadows, and it became darker, all of this was like a table that had been left there for a long time, slowly covered with a layer of dust, covering it up , Deng Butou himself didn't seem to feel anything at all.

Lou Jinchen didn't move rashly, he looked at the people in other places, and the people who hadn't disappeared completely had already disappeared.

"Do all the people in the village disappear like this?" Lou Jinchen just doubted, he didn't know if the people who disappeared in this ancestral hall like this would die.

Suddenly, he felt alert in the depths of his heart. It was an extremely faint sense of danger, like a ray of breeze blowing across the water surface of the autumn pool, causing a slight ripple. It was this slight ripple that made Lou Jinchen feel the danger.

Suddenly thought: "In the eyes of others, am I also disappearing?"

He found that he seemed to be integrated with this piece of light, seemed to be disintegrated in this piece of light, and wanted to become a part of this piece of light, his thoughts seemed to drift away, just like the arrogance that night when he was refining Qi He wanted to fly away very much, he felt that his whole consciousness would follow the light and fly into the sky.

This desire was so strong and natural.

He immediately tightened his mind and visualized the sun burning in his body, the sun fell into the sea of ​​qi, the sea of ​​qi boiled instantly, turned into a fire dragon, got out of the sea of ​​qi, and started to swim in the meridian, passing by He is looking for the dissonance in the burning body, looking for the traces of being invaded.

He didn't find it, but following the fire dragon for a week, the moment he entered the sea of ​​consciousness, he felt the real breath of the sun again, and the feeling of yin and yang came back, so the fire dragon transformed from the true energy came out of the sea of ​​consciousness. When he entered the sea of ​​qi, his whole body clearly appeared in the sunlight again, and the moment he opened his eyes, the brilliance of the sunlight surged in his eyes.

With his eyes as the center, the void burned, like black paper with a hole burned in the middle, spreading towards all directions.

The darkness in the ancestral hall suddenly seemed to have been burned away, but the figures of those people were still missing. Lou Jinchen stretched out his hand to grab the sun's rays again, his consciousness condensed in the palm of his hand, imagining that the sun was caught in the palm of his hand, and suddenly throw out.

The moment the palm was swung open, a ball of blazing white light shone out.

Holding the sun in his hand and opening his palm, the sun will shine naturally. This kind of natural imagination makes his thoughts fly, as if it has turned into rays of light, penetrating the shadows and darkness, and the whole ancestral hall is filled with the smell of being burned by the sun. , There was a strange fragrance, and the whole ancestral hall was brightened.

Those few people just woke up like a dream, like a startled fish in the water. After being alerted to danger, they were completely powerless and fell to the ground in an instant. On the contrary, Deng Toutou was better, and a jade plaque on his neck exuded shine.

Lou Jinchen didn't move, he was still standing there, this time, his eyes were looking at the water in the well that day.

The water in the patio is not deep, but shallow, forming a rectangle with eyes engraved on the bottom. The sun shines inside, making the water clear and making the eyes glow.

Lou Jinchen suddenly pulled out his sword and pointed at the void where the patio was located. A ray of bright sunlight quickly condensed on the tip of the sword.

Without saying a word, he swung the sword in his hand down into the courtyard.

'Wow! '

A light and shadow burst out from the clear and empty courtyard water.

The light and shadow were thin and illusory, but Lou Jinchen could see clearly that it was a woman with loose hair and a white dress. Following the sunlight, she slashed across the body with a sword and got out of the roof patio in an instant.

"Break my spells, I will never have anything to do with you." A cold voice came from the sun, and Lou Jinchen stomped away, and the man had already rushed forward, and at the same time, there was a void above his head, he hoped to be able to He tried to stop it, but that phantom was really like a phantom, and Lou Jinchen's thoughts couldn't imprison it, as if it was really a shadow, not a person.

The sword light pierced the void, but it was empty, only cutting off a piece of sunlight, which fell into the ancestral hall, dispelling a piece of darkness.

Lou Jinchen was already in the sky above the ancestral hall, his eyes followed the direction of the white shadow's departure, and she disappeared in a split second.

Deng Butou also went up to the roof, looking at the same thing, but of course he couldn't see anything.

"Is it Xu Xin?" Deng Butou asked.

"If the head catcher doesn't know him, I know him better." Lou Jinchen said.

"It should be, Xu Xin is tall and slender, she likes to wear white clothes, and is thin. Moreover, from what she said just now, it can be seen that she is practicing the 'divine method'. We can go back. This is not a mysterious epidemic, but This time Xu Xin hasn't fully cultivated his divine technique this time, so he will definitely cause disaster."

After Butou Deng finished speaking, he blew another whistle to call people from outside to come in.

Lou Jinchen was thinking about the spell that Xu Xin had practiced.

She can actually be like a phantom, not afraid of the sword in his hand, he knows very well what his sword has killed.

"Could this be an escape technique? I can't catch her breath, so I can't hurt her... I can learn from her escape method in the water. If it weren't for her murderous intentions, I would have almost nothing to do." What I feel is really a good way to hide." Lou Jinchen thought to himself.

I thought again: "When I was hit by the spell just now, I felt that I had to completely merge into the light. If I could control it myself, would I be able to hide in the sun's rays?"

He silently recalled that feeling.

　coming.
