On the night of Zhuge Liang's arrival in Wuyuan City, West Shaanxi, the moon was bright and the stars were scarce, Zhuge Liang took advantage of the moonlight to walk out of his room, came to the courtyard, looked up at the starry sky, and saw that above the night sky in the southwest, there were several stars very close, as if they were about to be pasted, he saw this and began to pinch his hands, after half a ring, the corners of his mouth showed a smile, and turned back to the room.

The next day, Wei Yan came again, he walked to Zhuge Liang's door, did not move, and waited for a while Zhuge Liang's voice came from the room: "Come in, don't stand stupidly at the door." ”

Wei Yan opened the door and walked in, only to see Zhuge Liang sorting things out, and asked, "Prime Minister, what are you going to do?"

Zhuge Liang smiled: "Don't panic, I'm just preparing things to use in a few days, and you can go back to hand over soon." ”

Wei Yan was stunned for a moment and didn't speak, Zhuge Liang said: "You, you, you are good at everything, but this mouth is stupid, neither pleasing nor explaining mistakes, it is really a success and a failure." ”

Wei Yan was silent for a long time and said, "I...... I'm not ...... Loves to talk. ”

Zhuge Liang put down the things in his hand, picked up the feather fan and gently shook it to sit next to Wei Yan, reached out and picked up the teapot and poured him a cup, and then said: "It's not that you don't like to talk, it's just that you don't want to say it yourself because you talk too much, if you have something to say, how can you live until now." ”

Wei Yan nodded, in fact, he is not stupid, and even he is very smart, but he is too upright, and he wants to say things that are not pleasing to the eye, and later offended the official eunuch and caused a tragedy, after that, Wei Yan changed, he didn't talk much anymore, he became more and more silent, and he didn't care about idle things, he has always been like this, until he was in Luohu City before, when he saw what Liu Xuande did, he was touched.

Zhuge Liang got up and came to the door, looked at the sky and said in a deep voice: "In the evening of three days, it will be the time of the nine stars, when the time comes, I will set up a formation, you have to help me protect the Fa, you can't let others disturb you, as long as it succeeds, I can retire after success, when you take my head to find Liu Xuande, and get a great merit, he will definitely reward you, you have to remember, don't want anything else, you must disarm and return to the field, understand?"

Wei Yan got up and clasped his fists, bowed to Zhuge Liang and said, "The last general understands." ”

Zhuge Liang shook his head with a smile and said, "What are you doing here, I'm not a prime minister anymore, so I don't use this set of etiquette." ”

Wei Yan immediately knelt down, and said a long paragraph after a long absence: "The last general's name is Wei Yan, the character is long, the family lives in Yiping County, offended the county eunuch when he was young, and the whole family was killed, and he has never spoken much since then. ”

Zhuge Liang helped him up and said, "Why bother, I just saved you by hand, you don't need to mind." ”

Wei Yan said: "No, the prime minister saved my life, I will repay the favor, this is my Wei family's family rule, the grace of dripping water, and the spring will repay." ”

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "That's it, just let it go." After speaking, he turned around and continued to pack his things, and said without looking back: "Remember to come and help me protect the Dharma in the evening three days later." ”

Wei Yan nodded and walked out.

Three days, fleeting, this night, Wei Yan came to Zhuge Liang early, Zhuge Liang asked him to wait outside the house, he set up candles in the house, arranged a circle along the whole room, and then in the center of the room, according to the position of the Big Dipper, put seven candles, and then, he took out a blanket, put it in the position of the North Star, along the perimeter of the blanket, began to use the ink with cinnabar to draw the array symbol, and extended to the entire room.

After doing everything, he came to the door and said to Wei Yan through the door: "From now on, no one can be allowed to come in until dawn You are opening the door, do you understand?"

Wei Yan nodded, pulled a chair from the side, and sat directly at Zhuge Liang's door, with a tiger's mouth knife beside him.

Zhuge Liang calculated the time, felt almost, and began to light the candle, only to see Zhuge Liang take out a fire fold from his sleeve, after opening it, lit one and pulled it, and then with a fan of his right hand, a circle of candles around the room was all lit, and then he walked to the blanket and sat down, and blew on the fire fold, and the seven candles in front of him were lit, and the whole room was like daylight, and everything was done, Zhuge Liang put away the fire fold, closed his eyes, sealed his hands, and recited the scriptures silently in his mouth.

The candles in the room continued to dance with the scriptures, and the originally dim red flame became brighter and brighter, flashing with golden light.

Outside the room, Wei Yan looked at the golden light in the room and sighed, "The prime minister is really a god, and he can do such a spell." At this moment, the sky instantly became extremely dark, not a single star could be seen, the few stars that Zhuge Liang saw before quickly fit at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in an instant, it became a star, and in an instant, a ray of light shot out and shone directly into Zhuge Liang's room, of course, these were only seen by Wei Yan, who was closest to Zhuge Liang, and the others did not feel it.

If Sima Yi was present at this time, he would definitely be able to recognize this formation as ' Seven Stars Dragon Array', this array is a forbidden formation, the role of this formation is to transcend the shackles of the life path, the things of the people in the world are in the life path, when Hongjun ancestor realized that the life path can actually be transcended, he created this array, but because the reversal of cause and effect will cause the disaster of annihilation, so this array was sealed by Hongjun himself, no one knows, this is something that mortals can not touch, as long as you use this array will usher in the curse, now the sky is dark is the preparation of the curse, but no one knows where Zhuge Liang learned this formation。

When Wei Yan was sighing, he suddenly felt something strange in the courtyard, because the sky was dark and the visibility was very low, so he could only hear some movements, but he couldn't see anything.

Wei Yan was alert in an instant, he had already grasped the tiger's mouth broadsword in his hand, ready to fight at any time, and was silent for a moment, a monster that looked like a big dog but was rotten rushed over, the moment Wei Yan saw it, he raised the knife to his chest, and the big dog had already pounced at this time, and the moment it touched the big knife, it was cut open, however, it was not dead, the big dog that was cut became two, and rushed over again, Wei Yan stepped forward with an arrow, dodged the killing, and the big knife waved instantly, as if holding up a defensive circle.

One person and two dogs fought together like this, Zhuge Liang in the house heard the movement, and the scriptures in his mouth could not be stopped, so he divided a trace of his heart, cast a sound transmission spell and said: "This thing is a beast of heaven's damnation, ordinary blades can't hurt them, you bite the tip of your tongue and rub it on the knife, you can break its immortal body." ”

When Wei Yan heard this, he hurriedly bit the tip of his tongue, and a stream of blood spurted out, falling directly on the blade, only to see him on the spot, rolled a step forward, and cut off the head of a dog with a wave of the big knife, and the dead dog instantly turned into flying ashes, Wei Yan saw that it was effective, and instantly ran to another dog, only to hear Zhuge Liang's voice again:" If you kill them, you'll have stronger monsters, you can kill a few first, and when the intelligent monster comes out, you can confront him for a while, so that you can delay time, and secondly, you can recover some physical strength, and then it's up to you, I can't distract you anymore. ”

After finishing speaking, there was no sound, and Wei Yan instantly understood that these monsters now are not afraid of life and death, they will only kill, kill it for a few waves, and there will be enlightened monsters coming out, and it will be easy to do when the time comes.

Having made up his mind, Wei Yan rushed to the big dog again, and slaughtered it in two or three strokes, and it didn't take long for him to hear another movement in the courtyard, this time the movement was quite loud, Wei Yan took two steps forward, and saw a monster with a height of one foot and three heads standing there.

Wei Yan was a little weak-hearted, the key was that this thing was too big, and the three-headed monster sniffed around, determined the location of the magic circle, and walked forward, Wei Yan observed on the side, although this monster is larger, but the speed is very slow, and it seems that it can't be seen, and it can only judge the direction through taste and hearing, which is easy to do.

I saw Wei Yan pick up a small stone from his hand and throw it at the back of the monster, the three-headed monster heard the sound, roared angrily, turned his head and blasted the hammer, but nothing hit, Wei Yan took advantage of the monster to dig the ground and secretly came to the monster's side, taking advantage of its inattention, cut off one of the monster's legs.

The monster was in pain, roared and fell to the ground, the remaining three legs tried to regain their body, and rushed towards the position where Wei Yan was just now, but it was in the air again, Wei Yan came to the back of the monster again, and stabbed it again on its hind feet, just like this continuous sneak attack, and it didn't take long for the monster to completely fall and turn into ashes.

Wei Yan secretly snickered, what's the use of being big, it's not a live target, just when he was about to get up, he suddenly felt a pain in his leg, and blood spurted out instantly, Wei Yan hurriedly rolled to the side, after squatting steadily, he held the wound with one hand, looked around, and found nothing after looking at it for a while.

When he was wondering, he suddenly felt a breeze on the right side of his body, and hurriedly leaned back, only to see a monster as big as a mouse flying over his head, Wei Yan scolded angrily: "It's not getting bigger and bigger, this fucking is too ...... people." ”
