Chapter 84: Penglai Holy Elder [1]
1.
On the day after Lin Xiao and his entourage left for the capital, someone knocked on the door of Room 601 of Building 3 of Wenhua Jiayuan in the middle of the night.
"Who is it at night? can you still let people sleep well!" Hongchen opened her door angrily, making a loud "bang" sound, she rubbed her hazy sleepy eyes, while stepping hard to vent her emotions, walked out of the room to the door, didn't even bother to glance at the cat's eye on the door, and directly reached out to open the door of the suite.
I saw a handsome young man standing at the door, but his face was a little strangely pale, without any blood, like a dead man's face, which covered his whole person with a gloomy and strange atmosphere. In addition, the black trench coat on his body was painted with a lot of strange red runes, and I don't know whether they were painted with cinnabar or blood, and the strokes and shapes were extremely strange.
The young man was still holding a black hole flute in his hand, and when Hongchen opened the door, he was holding the long flute, and it seemed that he had just knocked on the door with that flute, so it was no wonder that he could knock on it so loudly.
Hongchen raised his eyes and looked this weird young man up and down, only to feel that whether he looked horizontally or vertically, this thing didn't look like a good person in terms of appearance, clothing, and temperament. She was just woken up by the knock on the door from the other party, and she was already quite angry when she got up, and when she saw such an unlucky guy again, she didn't have any good emotions, and said in a muffled voice: "Is there something wrong?
The young man spoke, "Is Lin Xiao here?"
Hongchen was still in no energy, but when he heard him ask about Lin Xiao, the whole person suddenly sobered up a little, and there was a hint of vigilance in the eyes of the other party: "He's not here, what are you looking for him?"
"He's not here?" The black-clothed young man's eyes widened, and an anxious look suddenly appeared on his face, "What about Ye Wuxin?"
Hongchen said: "Not either." They went out together, with Ling Ying and Changfeng with them...... But then again, who are you?"
The young man in black didn't answer Hongchen's question, but pushed her away rather rudely and walked straight into the suite. Hongchen was not in a very good mood, but he pushed him down, thinking that he was going to make trouble, and he was even more angry. At that moment, he didn't say any more nonsense, the red light flashed in his hand, and the red dust sword was already in his hand, and he went straight into the palace with a move, stabbing at the back of the young man's heart.
The young man in black didn't expect Hongchen to say that he would fight, and there was no sign at all. Fortunately, he was able to take a step forward to avoid the stabbing sword, but the trench coat on his body suffered—when he swept forward, the trench coat naturally raised, so Hongchen's sword unbiased a transparent hole in the position of the back.
The black-clothed young man dodged the sword, but when he heard a "hiss" sound from behind him, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly reached behind him to touch it, and coldly touched a hole, and couldn't help but be angry: "No...... This big sister, are you sick?!"
Hongchen said coldly: "Shut up, now I'll give you two choices - either make it clear who you are and what you're doing here, or get out of here, otherwise it's not as simple as breaking a piece of clothing!"
"I really can't talk to you anymore!" The young man in black took off the trench coat on his body, threw his hands on the sofa next to him, scratched his hair with both hands, and kept pacing under his feet, with that anxious look on his face. As he walked, he suddenly seemed to remember something again, and his cloudy eyes suddenly brightened a little. He stopped and opened his mouth to shout: "White girl! surnamed Bai! White Bone Clothes! Don't hide and pretend to be dead, come out for me quickly!"
Hongchen felt more and more that the person in front of him was unreasonable, and when he saw him shouting like this, he couldn't help frowning and said, "What are you shouting, we don't have a 'white bone clothes' here, you are in the wrong place!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a sound of a deadbolt ringing in a certain room in the house, and saw Bai Yi wearing her fluffy rabbit pajamas, walking out with her head drooping, wearing slippers on one foot and barefoot on the other, and holding a pillow under the bend of her arm, looking like she hadn't woken up.
"Who called me?" said Bai Yi, rubbing his worried eyes.
Hongchen responded angrily: "No one calls you, people call you 'White Bone Clothes'!"
Unexpectedly, Bai Yi was stunned for a while, and said, "Bai Guyi...... Isn't that what you call me?!"
This time, it was Hongchen's turn to speak, and he said after a while: "Don't tell me...... the word 'white clothes' is also a pseudonym?!"
Bai Guyi glanced at Hongchen: "Is it strange to use a pseudonym? ”
"No, no, no, I just suddenly felt that Lin Xiao was a little pitiful. Hongchen rubbed his eyebrows and said, "It seems that before his memory is fully restored, he doesn't know that there are so many people and so many things around him, which ones are true and which ones are fake!"
"We are different from you, you use a fake name because you don't want Lin Xiao to feel guilty after knowing your true identity; Bai Guyi fell on the sofa, habitually curled up in a ball, and then slowly moved his gaze to the black-clothed young man standing aside, and said, "I said that you are not guarding the boundary of the floor, what kind of wind are you coming to us in the middle of the night?"
"Floor boundary?" Hongchen turned his head to look at the black-clothed young man, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, "You are the person named 'Ma Wei'—known as 'the first in the flood wilderness, the ancestor of the ghost path'?" After she woke up, she first stayed in the Ethereal City to familiarize herself with the environment, and then was taken to the triple building and placed beside Lin Xiao, for Ma Wei, she had only heard of the name, but she had never seen the real person, so she couldn't recognize it just now. She also thought that since this "Ancestor of the Ghost Dao" was named with the word "ancestor", he should be an old man in his last years, how could she have thought that this person was the young man in front of him who looked to be only in his twenties.
Ma Wei coughed and said, "Don't dare to be it, it's just a false name, just listen to the scene." ”
"I thought it was someone who made such a big noise in the middle of the night, but it turned out that you pretending to be a ghost came. Another joking voice sounded outside the door, and everyone looked at it together, only to see a woman standing at the door, who was also wearing a nightdress, but Yunxiao, who lived in the suite next door, heard the sound here and rushed to hear it.
"It's all here, right, then I'll talk about things. Ma Wei said, "This time the matter is a bit big, I advise you to be mentally prepared." ”
"If you sell Guan Zi again, beware of me, I'll let my cousin whip you!" Bai Guyi said impatiently while closing his eyes and pretending to sleep, "Anyway, there have been almost no good things since I came to the Triple Building, just say it." ”
Ma Wei raised his eyes to look at the ceiling and spit out a few words indifferently: "The boundary of the floor is lost!"
"Look at what you say, how old is it...... What are you talking about?!" Bai Guyi suddenly reacted, and suddenly flipped up from the sofa, his eyes widening. "Why did you suddenly lose your guard, what are you doing there?"
Ma Wei shrugged helplessly: "This ancestor is not invincible in the world, two fists are invincible to four hands, and it is a matter of time before the border is lost, but it will come faster than expected." Originally, if it was just one or two small sects that came to harass, I could have sent them away with a wave of my hand and a few formations...... But this time, it's a bunch of big people who came, I didn't even look at it, I threw off a few maze and ran away, I guess it should have broken the formation by now. ”
Yunxiao frowned and said, "You are not even afraid of Ling Ying and me, who can make you run away without even fighting?"
"It's not that I can't beat it, it's just that it's troublesome. And there are many people on the other side, if a few teams of people entangle me, and a few more teams come to trouble you, isn't that a delay?" Ma Wei explained.
Bai Guyi said, "I listen to you...... There seem to be a lot of people coming back this time. ”
Ma Wei said four words: "Ten Thousand Immortals Conference." ”
Yunxiao was shocked and said, "What did you say?!"
"Ten Thousand Immortals Conference-except for your Purple Sun Divine Sect, the other fourteen are all here, and they are still led by the 'Fourteen Immortals' personally. Ma Wei said in a deep voice, "The momentum on the other side is not small, I weighed the pros and cons, I feel that it will not be beneficial to entangle with them more, it is better to give up the border, let them in, and then find a way to deal with them." ”
"You're doing the right thing. Bai Guyi nodded and said, "The triple building is changing with each passing day, the situation is not as good as the quadruple building, those people from the Xianmen come here, they will definitely not be able to adapt to the rhythm here for a while, dragging them into here and bringing them to our familiar environment to deal with them is the best policy." ”
Hongchen frowned and said: "It seems that these people from the Immortal Sect are planning to move seriously this time, the fourteen immortals of the Ten Thousand Immortals Conference are dispatched together, and the only one that can be comparable to this posture is the action of the West Heaven Tongtian Tower-if they really let them find Lin Xiao here, even if we have the ability to protect him, I am afraid that it will be in trouble." ”
Ma Wei suddenly said, "They won't come to the door so quickly. ”
Yunxiao was puzzled: "What do you mean by this?"
"I ran away without a fight, but how could I let them cross the border so smoothly. Ma Wei sneered, "I set up a 'discrete maze' at the ferry crossing of the border, as long as they step into that area, they will be automatically dispersed to fourteen different places when they teleport, and they will not gather together. It's a pity that my formation can only work in the Huaxia range, otherwise I would have liked to teleport those goods to the Sahara or the North and South Poles!"
Yunxiao nodded and smiled: "Well done." In this way, their forces are scattered, and it is much easier to deal with them. ”
"Then our task is that once someone is teleported to the Silent Sea, we must hold them back. Hongchen said: "Because we can investigate the most traces of Lin Xiao here, if those people from the Ten Thousand Immortals Conference use these clues to lay out for us, we will be unable to guard against it later." ”
"I have an idea, and it's related to what I want to do next. Yunxiao, you go to find Li Jing, let her take Li Zhou, and the others change their clothes and follow me to a place. ”
...............
Quiet sea wilderness.
The Hospital was not originally a hospital, but a Catholic church. It was not a wilderness in the past, but a place where the French Concession was located, but later the Fusang invaded China and occupied Jinghai, and those who could run away from the foreigners ran away, and the concession people went to empty the building, and the church was transformed into a wartime hospital.
In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, a fire burned the entire area in the vicinity, and only this hospital remained. Later, after the reform and opening up, the center of gravity of Jinghai City was moving closer to the new areas that were opened, and this place became more and more barren, and slowly became the current wilderness.
Ma Wei touched the gate at the entrance of the hospital, which was full of creepers and rust, took a deep breath, as if feeling the breath here, and then he opened his eyes and said, "The yin qi is very heavy, I like it! But to be honest, how did you find such a ghost place?"
"Why do you care so much, just follow me. Bai Guyi said as he walked into the long-abandoned building. They followed him in, only to see her push open a dusty door in the cobweb-strewn corridor, revealing a flight of stairs that led to the ground.
The crowd lit up a few flame charms, went down the stairs all the way to the second basement floor, passed through a long corridor, and finally stopped in front of a door, only to see two large traditional characters written on the door in vague handwriting - mortuary.
"It's ...... Morgue?!" Li Jing frowned and said, it was Li Zhou, who had been unconscious for the past few days, "What did you bring my father here for?"
Bai Guyi didn't answer, she pushed open the door of the morgue and walked inside, and everyone followed in. Under the illumination of the open flame talisman, I saw a huge talisman drawn on the floor with cinnabar, and several arrays were still pasted with rune paper.
Ma Wei is the absolute authority of the ghost path, and he recognized it at a glance, and he couldn't help frowning: "This is ...... Zhao Yin Talisman Array, it's just that there is one stroke missing at the key point, and there is also a formation eye without the town talisman, but who drew this here?"
"I painted it. Bai Guyi said indifferently, "I did some experiments on Li Zhou before, trying to find some ways to alleviate the speed of the Gu in his body to further eat away at his heart, and then I found that the nature of the Gu is yang, and appropriately introducing some demonic qi into his body can alleviate the Gu poison in his body." So I searched the Internet to see if there was such a place in Jinghai City, and some netizens told me that the yin here was heavy enough, and I came here to take a look at it, and I felt that it was okay, so I set up a formation here in advance. ”
Ma Wei suddenly said: "So I'm just sending it to the door now, right?!"
Bai Guyi smiled slyly: "On the ghost road, in the whole world, is there anyone else who can compare to you?"
"It's really a no-brainer for me. Ma Wei said without modesty, "But I don't understand, does this matter have anything to do with those people who are holding back the Quadret Building?"
"It's not a big connection, but that doesn't mean there isn't. Bai Guyi said, "If you want the people of the Ten Thousand Immortals Conference to not be able to detect information, the best way is to prevent them from entering the city. And the best place to deploy is here!"
Ma Wei's eyes lit up: "You mean, set up a huge maze here and trap them in this place?"
Bai Guyi nodded: "That's right." ”
Yunxiao frowned and said: "I'm afraid it won't work out like this, it takes a lot of mental power to cast an illusion or a maze, and it can't last too long;
"You're right, so of course we can't rely on people alone, we also need to rely on some external forces. Bai Guyi said, "Do you remember how the 'Battle of the Sealed Demons' was fought back then?"
Yunxiao was stunned for a moment, and then his face showed joy: "You mean...... Refining the mirage of the mirage to arrange the 'Great Array of the Sea Market'?!"
"That's it. Bai Guyi smiled, "I checked the weather forecast before going out, and it is the time of the 'Autumn Tiger' recently, and the temperature will remain high in the next two weeks." At this temperature, in less than two days, a sufficiently realistic illusion can take shape. After the people of the Immortal Gate come to Jinghai, they will definitely be the first to investigate the fluctuations of spiritual power here, and we can take this opportunity to put them into the circle we have set up!"
Hongchen couldn't help but clap his hands: "This is indeed a good strategy, but we still lack a person who is high enough to cultivate and proficient in illusion to preside over the illusion realm - we are these people at the moment, Li Jing's cultivation is not high enough, I am not proficient in illusion, Xiaobai and Ma Wei are responsible for the matter of leading the formation and recruiting yin, so ...... You ...... the clouds."
Yunxiao nodded: "I can do it." ”
"You can't. "I'm not saying that you don't have the ability/dominance of the illusion, but you have another mission - you have to rush to the Forbidden City now, find Lin Xiao and them, tell them what happened here, and give them a little help." ”
Yunxiao said: "To tell them the situation, it is enough to send a message on your mobile phone." If I leave, there won't be anyone here who can preside over this formation. ”
"Not necessarily. Hongchen suddenly said: "I suddenly remembered that there is another person who has the ability to dominate this illusion. ”
Hongchen's mobile phone screen is on, and what is displayed on it is the page of the address book-
Yun Mengyao.
