Chapter 192: Devouring
These thoughts rolled in Xishuang's heart repeatedly, and the water spirit felt it clearly, and it stared at Xishuang directly, as if it couldn't understand her words. Xishuang didn't dare to make branches in the Xie family's study, and slapped Shui Luo's wings again, saying that he knew his grievances, and after he went back, he would definitely repay it twice.
Xie Huaiyu walked around the study as fast as he could, and he clearly remembered that the painting with the words "smokeless" was hung on the wall directly opposite the desk. And at this moment, that wall, blank, nothing. He couldn't help but walk up quickly and touch the wall with his hand, which was completely different from the touch next to him. In other words, the portrait was deliberately put away.
Sunset takes the shadow beast out of the smoke, indicating that the smoke is gone. It's not that there is no one at all, but the aura that can be used in the illusion has been completely occupied by the two shadow beasts, and if you want to restore it to its old appearance, I'm afraid it will definitely not be possible to do it in a short period of time.
Xie Anzai's gaze withdrew from the blank wall, could someone have already discovered this in advance, so he put away the portrait, just like a cultivator who needs to recuperate in a secret room after being injured, it will be half the effort, and the portrait will not see the light of day when it is put away, which will also be conducive to self-restoration.
Xishuang's words immediately reminded Xie Anzai, and he familiarly returned to a huge vase, bending over and looking for it repeatedly.
"My dad used to like to put his favorite portraits in it, but when I was a child, I was ignorant, and I always asked him why he didn't hang it out and enjoy it whenever he liked. But my father said that if you like it, then treasure it, and put it outside to wear out, visible to the naked eye, and it is irreversible damage. After saying the last few words, Xie Anzai's hand pulled out a painting scroll from the vase, if he remembered correctly, this painting scroll belonged to the smoke of no condensation.
"Wait a minute!" Xishuang's heart suddenly raced, and she stopped Xie An's gesture in time to open the scroll, "Are you sure you are holding a non-condensing cigarette, what will happen after you open it, do you know?"
"The smoke used to hang in the study all year round, and there was nothing wrong with me walking in front of it, so even if it was opened now, I thought it would be fine. Xie An decided that he should hurry up now, the study is not always empty, for example, Qiu Changji was tinkering in it just now, I don't know what to do, but I wasted a lot of time. If this person came back after going around and met them head-on, it would be tantamount to revealing their whereabouts.
Xie An held the scroll with one hand, and slowly rolled it up with the other. Xishuang's uneasiness still existed, and as Xie Anzai's movements became more and more intense, she saw Xie Anzai's eyes glow with a strange light, and reminded again: "It's better to sacrifice your natal mirror to protect the Dharma for you, and in case of any emergency, you can also be safe." ”
Xie Anzai also made sense when he heard this, and what he was worried about was not himself, but Xishuang, who had cultivated poorly. Shui Luo listened quietly to the two of them, and when he saw Xie Anzai's longevity and wealth mirror appear, he couldn't help but feel refreshed. Xishuang hurriedly told it, your eyesight is the best, take advantage of the fact that he hasn't fully opened the painting scroll to see if there is anything wrong inside, and it's still too late to exit in time.
Something is wrong with this study! Shui Lu's uneasiness comes from the sunset, the touch of the spiritual creature is keen, and it has a kind of trembling that the feathers all over its body are about to stand up, and it can't help but exclaim: "Let's go out, leave immediately!"
Xishuang believed Shui Lu's words, and saw that Xie An was still looking for something in the study relentlessly. She stepped forward and grabbed his arm, and couldn't help but pull the person out, Xie An was being dragged by her at close range, and the whole person couldn't react, so she only looked at her two plain hands on her sleeves intently, and she didn't mean to resist at all. Shui Luo pretended to turn his head and couldn't see anything, this young master of the Xie family, his love for his owner was about to seep out of his eyes, but unfortunately the owner could only see another person.
"Let's go!" Xishuang desperately approached the door of the study, which seemed to be only three or five steps away. She walked dozens of steps, and at this time, Xishuang and Xie An realized at the same time that there was really something in the study, and they couldn't get out, they couldn't get out!
"Don't walk through the door. The water spirit screamed again to bring back the consciousness of the two men, and flapped its wings and rushed upwards, and the seemingly sturdy roof of the study room was smashed through a large hole. This time, Xie An was mainly anti-guest, twisted Xishuang's wrist, and pulled her straight up the bloody path that rushed out of the water. The water spirit led the way ahead, and Xie An was engrossed, and his eyes could only see the direction in which it was flying. When the two of them broke through the roof and looked down at the study from above, Xishuang saw the painting written by Xie An without condensation.
"How did it get so big?" Xie An also saw it, and the whole picture scroll without condensation was spread on the roof of the study. At this time, a large hole was knocked out by the water spirit, and there was a faint gray smoke, from which it continued to drift upward. In mid-air, it turned into a monster in the shape of a vine and smelled blood to wrap around the ankle of the frost that fell behind it. Where is Xie An, he withdrew his hand and sacrificed the Longevity and Wealth Mirror, and the mirror hit directly on the smoke. I heard the smoke make a whimper and be shattered. Xie An didn't care about anything else, grabbed the water spirit beside him with his other hand, and left the control of the study with one person and one bird.
The study had already become a smokeless barrier, and if it hadn't been for the water spirits to discover the flaw in time, they would have quickly become a part of the aura supply that the smokeless lacked would have become a part of it. When Xie An landed again, those Xie family disciples had already heard the movement and hurried over to surround the two. Xishuang raised her eyes and roughly counted, there were at least thirty or forty people, and she asked in a low voice, "Does the young master of the Xie family have a plan to get out?"
Xie An smiled bitterly and said: "Look at their eyes, where do they still recognize me, the young master, I have long said that these people come from nowhere, and they have never seen any of them." I don't believe that the Xie family can recruit new disciples so quickly, and there are so many of them, they are going to besiege them. ”
Seeing the circle surrounded by thirty or forty people, Xishuang gradually approached, and said again: "I don't have much combat power, but it's all up to you." ”
Xie An's original nervousness was relieved by her words: "Don't worry, I will protect you, these young people will not be beaten." ”
Having said that, Xie Anzai didn't mean to defend or even attack, he seemed to be waiting for something. Seeing that he was calm, Xishuang immediately suppressed the water spirit and prevented it from appearing. Xie An is waiting, it must be an opportunity.
Suddenly, someone in the crowd besieging them shouted, "Oh no, the master's study is on fire." "Smoke billowed from the study they had just come out of, and they didn't know where the fire started. The burning was so fierce that the faces of those disciples changed. Qiu Changji's roar came from afar, it should have been a call for everyone to go and put out the fire, and those disciples of the Xie family actually threw down the two of them, regardless of them, and rushed towards the study together.
"We might as well have a study. Xishuang smiled mockingly, "How do you know that the study is on fire right now?"
"That's not fire. Xie An's eyes were cold, looking straight ahead, and when the water spirit pierced through the non-condensing smoke canvas, it emitted gray smoke, which was obviously shattered by his mirror momentum, so where did the smoke over the study that was completely enveloped at this time come from?
Xishuang was about to ask carefully, the wings of the water spirit brushed her eyes, and when she came to her senses, as Xie An said, where was there any fire in the study, except for the gray smoke, it was misty, and she couldn't see anything clearly.
I'm afraid that only they who were present saw the truth of the study, and those so-called Xie family disciples, in order to extinguish the fire, rushed into the door of the study one after another. Sunset had easily pushed the door in, and she knew that once she entered, she would fall into the barrier. If you think about it again, unless you have a spirit like a water spirit that can see through the essence and break the barrier.
How could these people do it? But these are not all disciples of the Xie family, and it takes so many people's lives to repair a non-condensing smoke! Xishuang was a little puzzled, struggling whether to go forward and explain the truth to those people, but their speed was too fast, and the door of the study was already closed.
"You come with me. Xie Anzai should have sensed some danger, grabbed Xishuang again, and took her to a hidden point on a high place, "There is still a person who didn't come, do you remember just now? Before we entered from the study, Qiu Changji was inside. He went in and came out unharmed, and he was the one who shouted to put out the fire just now, I probably know what kind of role he plays in the Xie family. That's why, I don't know any of these so-called Xie family disciples. ”
These strange faces were all newcomers who had been re-incorporated into the world, and Xishuang understood the meaning of his words, these people didn't know what they were bewitching, thinking that entering the Xie family was equivalent to officially stepping into the spiritual realm of cultivation. Since then, he has been reborn and has no worries. In fact, they have long been given titles and can be sacrificed at any time.
"Look there. Xie An was motioning to Xishuang, turned in a different direction, and saw more clearly that the big hole on the roof of the study room that had been pierced by the water was healing again at a speed visible to the naked eye. If this is a huge wound, then the speed of healing is too fast, indicating that the enchantment is frantically sucking spiritual power. These uninformed people may not die, but they will definitely be inhaled into the smokeless smoke, and there will be no time to see the light of day again, "You say, Bai Hengqi and those disciples of the Gan family whose whereabouts are unknown, will they also ......?"
He didn't dare to say the next words, for fear that once he said it, he would implement it. Dozens of living people were swallowed up by a painting in an instant, and no matter who it was said to, no one would believe it. Before Xishuang saw today's premeditated scene, she wouldn't believe it herself.
The gray smoke around the study gradually dissipated, and the sky, which had looked a little gloomy just now, was lifted by the clouds to reveal a faint daylight, and the whole smokeless landscape painting was revealed on the roof of the study. Although the painting is freehand, Xishuang is quite impressed by the internal structure of the non-condensing smoke, and it is really exactly the same. This painting really has such a magical power, which can not only drag people into it, but also consume time and spiritual power. What is even more difficult to do is to devour dozens of cultivators at the same time, even if their cultivation is not high, it will take a great impulse before it is possible, completely devouring, without the slightest discomfort.
