Wei Shu

Chapter 8 Seven Kills
Sensing Wei Shu's gaze, Zhou Shang also felt that his appearance was inappropriate. He hurriedly raised his sleeves to wipe his face, and then went to dust off his robe. Only two of them, no third pair of eyes.

camouflage?play?Want something?Or... is there another conspiracy?
What is the relationship between Akis and him?
Wei Shu's heart was full of doubts.

However, in the deepest part of his memory, Akis didn't seem to be surprised by this, just like when the two of them usually get along.

"I'll help the girl out."

After sorting things out, Zhou Shang took two steps forward, half-supporting Wei Shu to stand up naturally, and walked slowly to the outside of the hall.

Wei Shu actually didn't want to leave at all.

She was still thinking about the two corpses in the backyard, but at this moment, the situation forced her to leave, and she had to think about a problem immediately:
Is it right now to point out that there are dead people in the mine, or will we talk about it later?

The hesitation was only for a moment, and Wei Shu soon became concerned:

Later on.

Compared with making it clear on the spot, the latter is obviously safer.It's not that she was lucky and hoped that Zhou Shang didn't see the corpse, but that she was in a very unfavorable situation now, and it was a risk to speak rashly.

Talk less, do more, read more, do everything possible to delay the time, and remember more about the local people, relatives and friends in this place, so that when you have to speak, there will be fewer mistakes and omissions.

While Wei Shu was thinking, Zhou Shang had already led her along the dilapidated eaves to the outside of the small mountain gate. Then, his footsteps stopped suddenly, and he bowed slightly to Wei Shu:

"The girl's things are here. I saw these things just now, and guessed that the girl was sheltering here from the rain. I went in and looked for it, and I found the girl."

Wei Shu followed his line of sight and looked out.

At the corner of the outer wall of the mountain gate, there are several things placed upright: a folded green cloth umbrella, a pair of wooden clogs, and a bamboo basket covered with oilcloth.

It was raining and windy last night, and the oilcloth on the basket was rolled up at a corner, and the inside was empty, obviously nothing was put in it.

This is... Akis's?

The inexplicable sense of familiarity hit her heart again, Wei Shu walked over, put on her wooden clogs and tied her laces.

Sure enough, the size was just right, and it really belonged to Aqisi. The oil umbrella and bamboo basket must have been placed there specially by her.

Thinking of this, a fragment from yesterday appeared in Wei Shu's mind:
Akis rushed to the mountain temple in the heavy rain, put a few things on hand here, and then broke into the main hall...

No, she is not here for the first time!

The pages of the book in the darkness suddenly turned quickly, and the scrolls seemed to be in front of my eyes:

A girl in a green skirt walks around in front of the hill gate; a girl in black patrols the hall in the middle of the night; a slender figure in a white skirt floats like a ghost, frightening passersby to scream and run away; in the dawn of a snowy day, there is silence everywhere, The girl is like a flying swallow, shuttles across the roof of the mountain temple...

Haunted, unlucky, monsters in the mountain temple... There are more and more rumors in the market, and the mountain temple is gradually deserted, and finally abandoned, and the memories like a revolving lantern stop at this moment, turning into the last moment:
In the heavy rain like a waterfall, the girl jumped into the hall like an arrow, her sword-throwing action was concealed by the fluttering skirt and the sound of hidden weapons piercing the air.

She chose an excellent angle, the beams and pillars of the hall, the stones, the fallen statues and even the wind and rain outside the window are all her cover.

Akis did it on purpose.

Wei Shu suddenly realized something.

Girls frequently haunt here, pretending to be ghosts and scaring passers-by, gradually making the gates of the mountain temple deserted and the streets deserted, in order to make this place the most favorite place for her and others similar to her:

An inaccessible, quiet place amidst the hustle and bustle, an excellent place to kill and throw corpses where you can attack and defend.

This is a situation that the girl has set up for a year or even longer, in order to lure the opponent who may pursue her into a deadly place where the opponent thinks she has no doubt of winning.

And yesterday's jump through the window was the result of countless times of rehearsal by Akis after he piled up the clay cubes, moved the statues, adjusted the angle.

It's a pity that the girl calculated everything correctly, but only missed the opponent's soaring internal strength.

I thought that with my deep skill and soft armor, I would be able to take down the opponent's blow with all my strength, and then kill the opponent with the "Zangfeng" stunt, but unexpectedly I was killed directly.

As the saying goes, man's calculation is not as good as heaven's calculation, if that ray of fragrant soul has knowledge under the spring, what will it think at this time?

Wei Shu's thoughts gradually drifted away, and soon, a name full of Jianghu flavor jumped into her mind:

"Seven Kills Sealing Pulse Art"

That's right, Gou Ba must have used this technique to greatly increase his internal energy.

In Akis' memory, the other party had obtained this secret book a long time ago.

This is a method of retrograde meridians and then sealing them to temporarily enhance the skill. Each meridian sealed can increase the skill by [-]%, and if all the seven meridians are sealed, the skill will be doubled.

However, this technique has a fatal weakness, that is, it needs to open the meridian immediately after performing the move, otherwise it will be death or madness, and it takes at least ten breaths of effort to open the meridian.

In other words, if the Seven Kills Sealing Pulse Jue fails in one hit, it is tantamount to giving your own life to others.

It is precisely because of this that "Seven Kills and Sealing the Pulse Art" has a bad reputation in the world, and many people regard it as crooked.

And Gou Ba didn't make another move for a long time after the successful sneak attack, so he must be trying to open up the meridians. If not, even if Wei Shu came back to life, he would surely die at his hands.

Is this also God's will?

"Come on, Miss Aqi, I'll hold an umbrella for you." Zhou Shang's voice sounded.

The top of Wei Shu's head was darkened, and he raised his eyes to see that the green umbrella was like an open lotus leaf, and the surface of the umbrella was slightly tilted. Most of Zhou Shang's body was outside the umbrella, as if he looked thoughtful.

Wei Shu remained calm, raised her hand and brushed her temples lightly, her eyes flicked to the handle on the umbrella handle, a little curious.

The Daliang Dynasty also had canopy umbrellas, which were often used in court guards of honor, but the umbrellas were not closed, and they were much larger than this.Now this umbrella is not only light and compact, but also can be retracted freely, which is quite interesting.

From this point of view, it seems that this foreign land and foreign country is not completely barbaric and chaotic, but there are still some merits.

Wei Shu flicked her sleeves which were not too wide, and lowered her eyebrows to adjust the hem of the skirt again.

Zhou Shang gave her a strange look.

For some reason, when he held up the oil umbrella, the girl's calm and natural demeanor in front of him actually made him think "I should serve her", which is very strange.

Zhou Shang frowned thickly, and then let go again. Wei Shu had also arranged her clothes at this time, and turned her head to look over.

The two people who had their own thoughts looked at each other and smiled, one cautiously held up an umbrella, and the other walked slowly with a half-push and half-push, and walked out of the temple gate slowly.
