Volume 2 Iron Tree Hall Chapter 268 Illusion Building
Sima Shuo practiced 'shadow movement' in the room, when he first learned this trick before, he always felt that there were too many restrictions, not very practical, such as the light was too strong and the shadow was too small, or when it was in the shadow of other things, it could not be used, so he didn't pay much attention to it, but after lending his hands to the shadow a few days ago, he knew that he was wrong, and he was very wrong.
Although there are various restrictions on 'shadow movement', there are many ways to break these limitations, and if used properly, you can suddenly change the direction of movement of your body in the face of some attacks that cannot be dodged, so as to dodge the past, and sometimes you can also use it to speed up again above your own limit speed, and even jump higher with the help of other people's shadows, just like when you just lent your hands.
Shadow's understanding and control of shadows is extremely skillful, such as how the shadow will be under the light at that time when the hands and feet are raised, what the shadow will be like when the body makes any movements, how it can be used, etc., all of which Sima Shuo feels needs to learn by himself.
Ao Xuan yawned and asked boredly, "When can I go out, it's so boring." ”
Originally, the people of the Discipline Hall wanted to isolate Ao Xuan in a separate room, but Ao Xuan refused to live or die, and Sima Shuo's persuasion was useless, fortunately, Shu Wen happened to be there, and when he saw this, he asked if the two were together when the building collapsed, Sima Shuo replied yes, Ao Xuan also nodded desperately, and Shu Wen agreed that the two were in a room, but before that, they needed to ask some questions separately.
Sima Shuo truthfully stated his route and the target of the pursuit and the reason for the pursuit, while Ao Xuan only got five words: sleep, I don't know.
After Ao Xuan watched the phoenix return to the nest, he went back to sleep in Sima Shuo's arms, and he didn't know anything about what happened after that, until the house exploded and collapsed, and he was woken up.
Every day, Ao Xuan watched Sima Shuo practice 'shadow movement', watching the shadows make different strange movements due to different lengths, and observing the changes of shadows at different times, as if he was stunned.
Although he was a little worried, the days of sleeping and eating after eating were still very satisfying to Ao Xuan.
After everyone stayed in their respective rooms for nearly a full ten years, they were allowed to resume cultivation and teaching in the outer hall, but they still couldn't leave the building.
Early in the morning, no one needed to be woken up, they all came to the hall very early, the first to arrive was Yueling'er, the second and third were Tang Hua and Toad Xin, followed by Wolf Guo, Tang Bao, Tang Gui, Ming Shiyu, Tang Lanyu, Xuhui, He Wushuang, and finally Sima Shuo and Ao Xuan.
Sima Shuo came to the hall on time according to the usual time, if it was the past, it would never be the latest, but the others were all suffocated, and they were not lonely or lonely demon clans, and this decade was like a torment for them.
When Sima Shuo just walked down the stairs, Zhu Yi also arrived, and everyone was very curious about what was going on outside, so they surrounded Zhu Yi and asked.
Zhu Yi said while handing out the iron box: "I'm not optimistic, I heard that after the Discipline Hall investigated the outer hall disciples, even his own inner hall disciples investigated one by one. ”
Sima Shuo asked, "What kind of building is the destroyed building?"
Zhu Yi replied: "It's the illusion building on the twenty-third floor, and you can make all kinds of illusions to find weaknesses that you don't even know. ”
Xuhui suddenly thought of Zhu Yi's problem, and said, "Isn't it possible to use it to cure your fear of blood?"
Zhu Yi smiled bitterly: "I tried, but it didn't work." ”
Sima Shuo said: "It seems that you still have to find a way to find out where your crux is." ”
Tang Hua was under house arrest for ten days, his heart was on fire, and he complained: "With such great power, the building has collapsed, no matter how you think about it, it can't be done by our outer disciples, why do you have to lock us up for so long." ”
Tang Gui echoed: "That's it, you should have directly investigated those disciples of the Discipline Hall a long time ago, they are the most suspicious." ”
Zhu Yi explained, "I heard that the reason why the outer hall disciples were investigated was because the explosion was not caused by holy arts, but by formations. ”
Tang Bao and Yue Ling'er were puzzled: "Formation?"
Sima Shuo subconsciously nodded slightly, his definition of formation has always been equivalent to a high-tech product, such as a pistol or a bomb, even a child can use it, so when he heard Zhu Yi mention the formation, he immediately understood why the Discipline Hall wanted to investigate the disciples of the Outer Hall.
Zhu Yi saw him nodding and thought he knew something, so he asked, "Brother Shuo, do you have any ideas?"
Everyone else also looked at him, Sima Shuo smiled awkwardly and explained, "No, I just figured out some things, but there are also a lot of things I don't understand. ”
Wolf asked, "What do you understand?"
Sima Shuo was about to speak, but the door was opened, and Songhuang walked in, urging everyone twice to finish eating quickly, and then go to class.
There was nothing unusual on his face, as usual, he gave people a lazy and lazy feeling, and after sitting down, he yawned several times in a row, as if he was very tired and tired.
Yue Ling'er said with concern: "Master Song, are you okay?"
Songhuang waved his hand and said tiredly: "It's okay, I haven't rested much in the past few days, and I'm a little ...... Ha~, I want to sleep. ”
As he spoke, he yawned again, which couldn't help but remind Sima Shuo of his mental state when he practiced overnight.
Although Songhuang spoke in a daze in the morning theory class, as long as everyone below whispered, the smoke of one of Songhuang's natal objects would turn into a small mallet and hit the head of the person who spoke, so everyone could only honestly wait until the noon break before they got together to continue to discuss the topic of the morning.
What Sima Shuo didn't understand was why they were attacking the twenty-third floor and not other buildings, Tang Hua and Tang Bao felt that it was a coincidence, but if it was a coincidence, then what was their purpose? Making such a big move would never be as simple as trying to destroy a building in the outer hall.
At this moment, Minglu came out of nowhere, squatted behind Tang Lanyu, and said with a smile: "The general direction is right, but have you ever thought about who might do it?"
Tang Hua was the first to raise his hand and said, "Jing Shangtang, last time Crocodile Zi was taught a lesson by Master Song, so he felt uncomfortable and wanted to take revenge." ”
Toad Xin guessed: "It may also be the other four forces under Jingshang Hall, they are afraid that our Iron Tree Hall will grow stronger and overpower them." ”
Wolf said: "It may also be that the lake did it, after all, they have always been at odds with Jing Shangtang, and we are adjacent to them, so it is normal to attack us." ”
Everyone gave their suspicions, and it was basically possible to say it, Minglu looked at Sima Shuo, who had not spoken, and asked, "Boy, what do you think?"
Sima Shuo shook his head, glanced at Songhuang, who was already asleep, and said, "I don't know, it's all possible, it's just such a big movement, the loss of Tieshutang should be not small." ”
Minglu smiled and didn't speak, which was a kind of acquiescence.
Then Minglu asked Zhu Yi for four iron boxes and left from the gate openly.
Xuhui was immediately curious after Ming Lu left, "Do you say that there is something important in the Iron Tree Hall hidden below?"
Toad Xin sighed, glanced at the door, and said, "These things can't be said casually, they will arouse suspicion." ”
If it was really as Xuhui guessed, then what he had just said would make the people of the Discipline Hall wonder how he knew, which led to being interrogated and even tortured to extract a confession.
Xuhui hurriedly covered his mouth, and Songhuang suddenly said, "Let's rest, it's okay." ”
On the roof of the twenty-third floor that has been rebuilt, Minglu distributed the iron box obtained from Zhu Yi to Shu Dao, Shu Wen and Shu Fort, and the four people were assigned to the task of stationing on the twenty-third floor, and only one person could leave at a time, keeping at least three people present at all times.
Shu Wen said while eating: "Although we are secretly stationed, will this still be too obvious?"
Even Sima Shuo and they can deduce the hidden mystery on the twenty-third floor, how could they not know, they just don't know what it is, but as Shu Wen said, this is a bit of a meaning that there are no three hundred taels of silver here.
Eating also took turns, and Shu Bao looked outside and said, "It's also possible that it's the opposite." ”
Shu Dao swallowed the contents of his mouth and said, "Anyway, let's just complete the task at hand, and let the hall master think about the rest." ”
Minglu looked into the distance and asked, "Don't you think it's a little strange?"
The three of them looked at him in unison, and Ming Lu said to himself, "The focus doesn't seem right. ”
He had provided two suspicious subjects before, if nothing else, the explosion on the twenty-third floor should have been caused by them or one of them, but the Discipline Hall was like a headless fly, and still thoroughly investigated the outer hall and the Discipline Hall.
Shu Dao's eyes rolled, and he nodded: "It seems that most of the hall master's attention is on investigating our discipline hall itself? ”
Shu Bao said, "Could it be that the explosion was really caused by the people of our Discipline Hall?"
Shu Wen shook his head again and again and said in denial: "Impossible, impossible, we have all been closely investigated before entering the hall, and it will never be us." ”
Shu Bao said, "Otherwise, why would the hall master do this?"
Shu Dao glared at the two of them and interrupted their topic: "Don't guess the hall master in confusion. ”
Put down the iron box that had been eaten, walked towards Minglu, and continued: "I believe that the hall master has his own purpose, don't mess with ourselves, we just need to do our best, are you right?"
Minglu smiled and nodded, picked up the iron box, walked to the bottom of the iron tree and sat down, and said, "Maybe I was wrong, you just didn't say it, what?"
Shu Dao observed the situation around him and said, "Don't worry, we won't make a small report, but you have to teach us how to hide our breath." ”
Minglu said decisively: "No, unless you worship me as a teacher, are you willing?"
The three of them shook their heads in unison, although they are indeed not as strong as Ming Law in terms of concealment, but the combat effectiveness of the four people is about the same, so it is okay to be commensurate with each other, but if you want to talk about apprenticeship, it is still a little worse, and it is a big deal to secretly study and study.
Minglu means that he lowered his head and thought while eating, and Shu Wen was also full, replaced Shu Fort, and observed the surroundings with Shu Dao.
In fact, on the twenty-third floor, there were not four people, but five people, and after the four of them stopped discussing, they left quietly, coming and going without being noticed at all.
