Chapter 76: Night Run Eighteenth
Wei Wuxian sat in the corner of the teahouse, pouring himself a drink.
Outside the door of this teahouse, under the guise of the wind, there is a family crest of the Xianmen family, indicating that it is the family's industry.
When I entered the building, almost every table was filled with peers who could talk a few words, and they were very talkative.
The mass grave does not raise ears and eyes, and in the past year, almost all the information that Wei Wuxian knows about the outside world has been personally heard by him.
A monk of Sven sighed: "The reconstruction of Yunshen is finally complete. Last month, when the library was completed, who went to see the ceremony? When you go down, you can stand there and see that it has been built exactly like the original, which is really not easy. β
"Yes, it's not easy, such a big immortal mansion, a hundred-year-old fairyland, where can it be rebuilt in a while. β
"After spending so many years, Zewujun Hanguangjun is also hard, and finally there is no need to run around and work hard. β
Wei Wuxian stared at his own eyes reflected in the wine glass, and said to himself, I wonder what happened to the magnolia tree outside the library pavilion?
The monks continued to chat: "Speaking of which, there have been a lot of happy events lately. β
"You mean the full moon wine of Jinlintai, right? I went too, and I had a drink. Tsk, Lanling Jin's is worthy of being Lanling Jin's, and a baby's full moon banquet is so pompous. β
"Don't you look at who is holding a full moon banquet for, who are the little baby's parents and his parents? Can you be sloppy? Don't say that Mrs. Xiaojin's husband refuses to be sloppy, and the pomp is a little smaller, and her brother refuses to do it. Think about the pomp and circumstance when Jin Zixuan and Mrs. Xiao Jin got married, it was even more extravagant!"
Wei Wuxian smiled. A female cultivator's voice came: "Lady Xiao Jin is so good...... This is a good blessing that was cultivated after giving up the ascension in the previous life. It's just ......"
This slightly sour whisper was immediately overshadowed by other loud voices: "Jin Zixuan's son has a future! At the full moon banquet, let him grab things, pick among a bunch of colorful things, but grabbed his father's sword, and made his father happy, saying that he will definitely be a great great sword fairy in the future." I think maybe this is the future Immortal Duli. β
"Xiandu, it seems that several major families have been arguing about this recently, have you settled?"
"What's there to be noisy about? You can't always be scattered, and the dragons will be leaderless. Set up an immortal head who oversees a hundred families, I think it's completely good. β
"It's not good, think about the Qishan Wen family, if there is really an immortal governor, in case you come again......"
"How can this be the same? It's not the same, it's not β
"Hey, it's a recommendation, everyone knows in their hearts, come and go and don't just fight for those few people, and it's the turn of others? And the position of the immortal governor can only sit for one person, so who will sit it?"
"Anyway, it's all the ones up there to worry about, it's none of our business. We can't take care of a little shrimp like us. β
"Chifeng Zun is very against it, how many times have you choked back Jin Guangshan's hints, Jin Guangshan's face is dark. β
"Haha...... Speaking of this, I pity Jin Guangyao, every time his father wants to make waves and do something, he racks his brains and tries his best to come up with ideas. His father messed up, he had to stand up and wipe his ass, and he was scolded by Chifengzun......"
"Poof! Didn't he just be scolded by Jin Guangshan because of the incident of Qi Qidao? Hey, such a son is not welcomed. β
"What is the matter with Qi Qidao? The matter of the Yiling Ancestor arsonist general indiscriminately killing innocents? Isn't that an old account from more than a year ago, why has it been turned out again recently?"
It's only been more than a year, and it has evolved into "indiscriminate killing of innocents" in other people's mouths, and Wei Wuxian has nothing to say.
Immediately afterward, another human:
"Not that. is recent. Poor Qidao is making trouble. β
Everyone wondered: "What can you do there? Isn't it already occupied by the Lanling Jin clan and is ready to be transformed into the 'Venus Snow Wave Valley'? What can you make trouble under their noses, shouldn't it be suppressed immediately?"
"It's because they haven't been suppressed that they're fierce! I don't know, right? I heard that the overseers who were killed by the Yiling Ancestor have returned!"
Wei Wuxian's hand playing with the wine glass froze.
The man continued: "I heard that these evil ghosts are extremely ferocious, they harm people in the valley all day long, many monks who originally worked there are injured, and the people of the Lanling Jin clan can't do anything with them, the mountain wall has just been carved with new reliefs, and before the Venus snow waves are planted, the mouth of the valley is sealed, and no one is allowed to approach, so they don't run away if they throw it down......
"Hahahaha...... It's very much in line with their family's style......"
After leaving the teahouse, Wei Wuxian walked for a while. Walking to a place where there were few people, a figure silently followed.
The more Wei Wuxian thought about it, the stranger it became.
Those few overseers are not the type of people who are so angry and angry, how could they suddenly make trouble? Listening to other rumors, the Lanling Jin family has been forced to be helpless these days. couldn't help but make him curious, and a little more competitive.
Basically, when Wei Wuxian heard that there was something strange and strange somewhere, he had to join in the fun, hunt at night, collect a few ghost generals, think about it for a while, and felt that it was necessary to go and see.
He asked, "How long have we been out?"
Wen Ning said: "One and a half days." β
In order to prevent emergencies, Wei Wuxian generally did not leave the mass grave for more than four days, and he said, "There is still time." Let's take a trip to Tianshui. β
The two rushed to Qiqi Road. Sure enough, a high iron fence was pulled up from the mouth of the valley, and the sharp iron rods towered straight into the sky, resisting the invasion of idlers and others. Wen Ning held the two iron railings with both hands, and with a slight force, the three-finger-thick iron rails were broken out by him in two obvious arcs.
Slipping through the crooked iron fence and strolling through the Poor Passage, the valley is deserted, very secluded and desolate, with the occasional cooing or two.
Wei Wuxian said, "Is there anything unusual?"
Wen Ning rolled his eyes, and after a moment, he lowered his pupils and said, "No." It's quiet. β
Wei Wuxian said, "It's a little too quiet. β
Moreover, it is not only the valley that is "quiet", but a larger space.
Wei Wuxian quickly sensed that something was wrong, and said in a low voice, "Let's go." β
He had just turned around when Wen Ning suddenly raised his hand and intercepted something.
It was a feathered arrow that went straight to Wei Wuxian's heart.
Suddenly he looked up, and many people came out of the valley on both sides of the valley and on the mountain walls, in all directions and corners. There are about a hundred or so people, most of them are wearing Venus snow wave robes, and there are also other colors, all of them are carrying long bows and swords at their waists, full of vigilance, and fully armed. Covering the mountain and others, the tips of the swords and arrows were all aimed at him.
The feather arrow that was the first to shoot at Wei Wuxian was shot by the first person. When I looked closely, the man was tall, with a slightly dark complexion, and a handsome face, which was somewhat familiar.
Wei Wuxian said, "Who are you?"
After the man shot an arrow, he originally had something to say, but when he asked him this, he forgot anything, and said angrily: "You actually ask who I am? I am Jin Zixun!"
Wei Wuxian immediately remembered that this was Jin Zixuan's cousin, and he had met this person in the banquet hall of Jin Lin Terrace.
He said, "Oh. It's you. What are you going to do with these people in ambush here?"
This was, of course, a premeditated ambush. I'm afraid there is no such thing as a murder at all. Just because others couldn't break through the corpse array at the foot of the mass grave, and Wei Wuxian was haunted and difficult to trace, Jin Zixun sealed the mouth of the valley of the Poor Strange Road, deliberately spreading rumors that there was evil in this place, and it was the same overseers who were torn apart by Wen Ning back then, and Wei Wuxian, who was hunting at night, came to drill the trap.
It's just that Wei Wuxian doesn't understand that he hasn't done anything to violate Jin Zixun's interests in the past year. Even if he had an unhappy relationship with Jin Zixun in the banquet hall more than a year ago, and Jin Zixun intended to take revenge, it shouldn't have been delayed for a year to take revenge. Why do you suddenly want to bring a group of people here to surround him?
Jin Zixun said calmly: "Wei Wuxian, don't pretend to be garlic." I warn you, and immediately undo your curse, and I can act as if nothing had happened, and I will not be held accountable. β
As soon as Wei Wuxian heard this, he knew that he was in trouble. Even if he knew he would be reprimanded, he had to ask, "What curse?"
"Are you still knowingly asking?" Jin Zixun ripped off his collar and roared, "Okay, I'll let you see the results of the evil spell you personally made!"
His chest was densely covered with large and small holes!
These pits, small as sesame seeds, as large as soybeans, spread evenly over his body, making people chill.
Riddled with!
"Riddled with holes" is a damaging curse. When Wei Wuxian was copying books in the Gusu Lan Clan's library, he found an ancient book with an illustration of the curse, and the figure had a calm face and seemed to be painless, but many black holes the size of coins had grown on his body.
The stronger the resentment of the person who placed the curse, the weaker the cultivation of the person who was under the curse, and the stricter the consequences. At first, the practitioner is unconscious, and most of them will think that their pores have become bigger, but then, those holes will become the size of sesame seeds, and the further they go, the bigger and bigger the holes, and the longer and longer, until the whole body is covered with black holes of all sizes, as if it has become a living sieve, which is extremely terrifying. And when the surface of the skin is full of sores, the curse will begin to spread to the internal organs, ranging from unbearable abdominal pain to ulceration of all internal organs!
Wei Wuxian recognized this evil curse at a glance and said, "'Thousands of holes'. It's a powerful spell, but it has nothing to do with me. β
Jin Zixun seemed to be disgusted to see his chest, closed his clothes and said, "How can that be such a coincidence? As soon as you scold, you will put such a vicious curse?
Wei Wuxian said, "Jin Zixun, I do not think you are very pleasing to the eye. But if I'm going to kill someone, I don't have to play the gutter trick of the curse behind my back. And you guessed it was me, would I be so visibly exposed?"
Jin Zixun said: "Aren't you crazy?
Wei Wuxian didn't bother to argue with him, and said, "You can solve it yourself." I'm one step ahead. β
Hearing this, Jin Zixun's eyes showed a fierce light, and he said: "Salute first and then soldier, since you don't know how to turn back to the shore, then I'm not welcome!"
Wei Wuxian paused and said, "Oh?"
The meaning of "you're welcome" is obvious. To unravel this curse, in addition to letting the spellcaster self-inflict damage and withdraw on his own, there is also the most thorough solution: kill the spellcaster!
Wei Wuxian said contemptuously, "You're welcome, you, just a hundred people?"
Jin Zixun waved his arm, and all the protΓ©gΓ©s wound their arrows, aiming at Wei Wuxian and Wen Ning at the lowest point of the valley.
Sure enough, if he doesn't take the initiative to provoke right and wrong, right and wrong will also come to provoke him!
Wei Wuxian lifted Chen Qing up, and the sound of the flute pierced the silent valley with sharp sound. However, after waiting for a moment, there was no response.
Someone on the side said loudly: "We have cleaned it up within a radius of ten miles, and you can't summon a few helpers no matter how much you blow!"
Sure enough, it was premeditated, and this poor strange road was set up as a burial place carefully arranged for him. Wei Wuxian sneered, "This is your own death!"
Hearing this, Wen Ning raised his hand and pulled off a red rope with a charm hanging from his neck.
After the red rope broke, his body shook, and the muscles of his face began to twist gradually, and several black cracks crept up from his neck to his cheeks. Suddenly he raised his head and let out a long, inhuman roar!
Among the more than 100 people in this ambush, there are also many good players in the night hunting ground, and they have never heard a murderous corpse make such a terrifying sound, and the soles of their feet are weak. Jin Zixun's scalp was also numb, but the things on his chest made it even more unbearable for him, so he raised his arm and ordered, "Put-"
At this moment, on the other side of the mountain wall, a voice shouted, "Stop!"
A white-clad figure fluttered down the valley. Jin Zixun had already gritted his teeth and red eyes, and when he saw the appearance of the person, he was still in front of Wei Wuxian, he was shocked and irritable, and said in a lost voice: "Zixuan, why are you here?!"
Jin Zixuan put one hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist and said calmly: "Come and stop you." β
Jin Zixun said, "What about A-Yao?"
Last year, he looked down on Jin Guangyao very much, and he looked down on him quite lightly, but now that the relationship between the two has improved, they have become close. Jin Zixuan said: "I detained him in Jinlintai." If I hadn't broken him when he was taking his sword, would you have planned to kill him like this? Do such a big thing, don't say a word, and discuss it!"
Jin Zixun's body is full of holes and curses, and it is really difficult to talk about it. First, he used to have a good appearance and physique, and he was known to be romantic, and he couldn't tolerate being known that he had been cursed with such a disgusting and ugly curse; second, being cursed showed that his cultivation was not enough, and his spiritual defense was weak, which was even more inconvenient for outsiders. Therefore, he only told Kim Kwang-sun about the curse, begging him to find the best spell master and physician for himself. Who knew that the physician and spell master were helpless, so Jin Guangshan gave him a plan to intercept and kill the poor strange way.
Jin Guangyao is the helper that Jin Guangshan said he would send to help him. As for Jin Zixuan, because Wei Wuxian is Jiang Yanli's junior brother, coupled with the love of Jin Jiang and his wife, Jin Zixuan has to nag his wife about almost everything, worried that he will leak the news, so that Wei Wuxian has a guard, because they have been hiding from Jin Zixuan's interception and killing today.
When Wei Wuxian saw Jin Zixuan for the last time, he was still a young man's arrogance, but now after getting married, he looks a lot calmer, and he speaks loudly and well: "There is still room for turning around in this matter, you all stop it for the time being." β
Seeing that he could kill Wei Wuxian, Jin Zixuan suddenly stopped, Jin Zixun was angry and irritable, and said hurriedly: "Zixuan, what do you mean by this? What are you here for?
Seeing that he seemed to want to lift his clothes to expose his pit chest again, Jin Zixuan hurriedly said: "No need! I have heard Jin Guangyao say it!"
Jin Zixun said: "Since you have heard him say it, you should know that I can't wait, don't stop me!"
After all, the two of them are cousins who have known each other since childhood, and they have a friendship of one or two decades, which is not bad, at this time, Jin Zixuan is really not good at talking to outsiders, and he really doesn't like Wei Wuxian, so he turned around and said coldly: "You let this Wen Ning stop first, tell him not to go crazy, and don't make things bigger." β
Wei Wuxian didn't like him even more, he was inexplicably surrounded by others, and he was even more angry, and said coldly: "I didn't make the matter in the first place, why don't you let them stop first?"
There was a relentless clamor all around. Jin Zixuan said angrily: "What are you still tough at this time? First come with me to Jinlintai, confront me honestly, and explain things clearly, as long as it is not done by you, it will be fine!"
Wei Wuxian sneered, "Tough? I have no doubt that as soon as I let Wen Ning stop now, I will immediately be killed with ten thousand arrows!"
Jin Zixuan said: "No!"
Wei Wuxian said, "Jin Zixuan, you get out of the way for me." I won't move you, but don't mess with me either!"
Jin Zixuan saw that he was stubborn and refused to soften, so he suddenly grabbed him and said, "Why don't you know how to cooperate......?
He stretched out his hand towards Wei Wuxian, and Wen Ning looked up suddenly!
There was a dull noise.
Hearing this voice, Jin Zixuan was stunned. When he lowered his head, he saw the hand that pierced his chest.
The expressionless half of Wen Ning's face was splashed with a few drops of hot and piercing blood.
Jin Zixuan's lips moved, and his expression was a little stunned. However, I still insisted on continuing the half sentence that I had just finished:
ββ¦β¦ She wouldn't want to see a ...... like you."
Wei Wuxian's expression was also stunned.
For a while, he didn't react yet, what's going on.
What's going on?
How did it become like this in an instant?
Wrong. No. There must be something wrong cuò. He obviously had a good grip on Wen Ning just now. Even if Wen Ning had been pushed into a state of madness by him, he should have been able to control it. Obviously, they used to be able to control zhì.
Obviously, even if Wen Ning goes crazy, he should never get out of his control, he will definitely obey his orders, and he will not hurt people indiscriminately!
Wen Ning pulled out the right hand that pierced Jin Zixuan's chest, leaving a hole in his heart.
Jin Zixuan's face twitched sadly, as if he felt that the injury was not a big deal, and he could still stand. But after all, his knees were weak and he knelt down first.
Panicked cries began to rise and fall in all directions.
"Ghost ...... The ghost general has gone berserk!"
"Killed, he killed, Wei Wuxian asked the ghost general to kill Jin Zixuan!"
"Shoot the arrows! What are you doing in a daze! Release the arrows!"
As soon as the person who gave the order turned around, a black figure ghostly approached him!
"Ahββββββ!!!h
No. No. He didn't want to kill Jin Zixuan at all.
He didn't mean to kill Jin Zixuan at all! It's just that at that moment, I don't know why, he suddenly couldn't control it!
Jin Zixuan's body finally couldn't support it, and he fell forward heavily, and with a bang, he fell to the ground.
He had been arrogant all his life, valued his appearance and manners, loved cleanliness, and even had a slight habit of cleanliness, but now he was facing down, and the wolf fell into the dust. The little blood on his face and the little cinnabar in the center of his eyebrows are the same red color.
Staring at his eyes, which were gradually losing their brilliance, Wei Wuxian's mind was in chaos.
Didn't you say that you have the number of things you can count when you have a good mind? Didn't you say that you can control yourself? Didn't you say that there is absolutely no problem, and you will never go on a business trip?!
"Ahhhhhh!!h
"My hands!"
"Spare your life. Don't chase me, don't chase me!"
In the Poor Strange Road, it has been reduced to a sea of blood screaming everywhere!
Wei Wuxian's mind went blank, and when he came to his senses, he was already lying in the Demon Palace.
Warmth and warmth are there.
Wen Ning's pupils fell back into the whites of his eyes, he had already come out of his frenzied state, and seemed to be talking to Wen Qing in a low voice, seeing Wei Wuxian open his eyes and silently knelt on the ground. Wen Qing had red eyes and didn't say anything.
Wei Wuxian sat up.
After being silent for a long time, a surging hatred suddenly surged in his heart.
He kicked Wen Ning in the chest, knocking him to the ground.
Wen Qing shrank in fright, clenched his fists, but only lowered his head and pursed his lips. Wei Wuxian roared, "Who did you kill?Do you know who you killed?!"
At this moment, Wen Yuan ran in from outside the hall with a grass butterfly on his head, and said with a smile: "Brother Envy......"
He had originally wanted to show Wei Wuxian his butterfly painted in a new color, but when he came in, he saw Wei Wuxian who looked like a demon, and Wen Ning who was curled up on the ground, and he was stunned all of a sudden. Wei Wuxian turned his head suddenly, he still didn't hold his love, his eyes were very terrifying, Wen Yuan was so frightened that the whole person jumped, the butterfly slipped from the top of his head, fell to the ground, and cried on the spot. The fourth uncle hurriedly hooked his waist in and carried him out.
After Wen Ning was kicked over by him, he got up and knelt down again, not daring to speak. Wei Wuxian grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up, shouting like crazy, "You can kill anyone, why do you want to kill Jin Zixuan?!"
Wen Qing watched from the sidelines, and wanted to come up to protect his brother, but he forcibly held back, and shed tears of sadness and horror.
Wei Wuxian said: "If you kill him, what should I do with Senior Sister? What should I do with Senior Sister's son?
His roar buzzed through the Demon Palace, reaching outside, and Wen Yuan cried even harder.
Listening to Xiao'er's distant cry in his ears, and looking at this frightened sister and brother who didn't know where to put their hands and feet, Wei Wuxian's heart became darker and darker. He asked himself, "Why on earth have I trapped myself in this mass grave all these years? Why did I have to suffer this? Why did I have to go this way in the first place? Why did I make myself like this? What did I get? Am I crazy? Am I crazy? Am I crazy?
If only he hadn't chosen this path in the first place.
Suddenly, Wen Ning said in a low voice, "...... Right...... Not great. β
A dead man has no expression, can't have red eyes, and can't shed tears. However, at this moment, the face of this dead man was really painful.
He repeated: "I'm sorry......
"It's all my fault......
"I'm sorry ......"
Listen to him stumble and apologize repeatedly. Suddenly, Wei Wuxian felt extremely funny.
It's not Wen Ning's fault at all.
It's his own fault.
Wen Ning in a state of madness is just a weapon. The maker of this weapon is him. Obey his orders: slaughter all enemies.
At that time, the saber rattling was raging, the murderous spirit was raging, and he usually never hesitated to show his dissatisfaction with Jin Zixuan in front of Wen Ning, and planted the seeds of hostility in Wen Ning's heart.
It was he who failed to control this weapon. It's him, too conceited about his abilities. It was he who ignored all the ominous signs up to this point, believing that he would be able to suppress any bad influences, and that he would not lose control.
Wen Ning is a weapon, but did he come to make a weapon of his own volition?
Such a cowardly, cowardly, and stammering person, could it be that he had a lot of fun killing people under Wei Wuxian's command in the past?
Back then, he got a bowl of lotus root soup from Jiang Yanli, and carried it all the way down the mountain to the mass grave, without spilling a drop, although he couldn't drink it himself, he was happy to watch others finish drinking, and asked what it tasted like, and imagined what it tasted like. killed Jiang Yanli's husband with his own hands, is he feeling good now?
While taking all the blame for his mistakes, he also has to apologize to him.
Wei Wuxian tugged at Wen Ning's collar and looked at his lifeless face, and Jin Zixuan's dirty face, which was stained with dust and blood, suddenly appeared in front of him, which was also lifeless.
He also remembered Jiang Yanli, who had finally worked hard to marry his sweetheart, and thought of Jin Zixuan and Jiang Yanli's son, the child who had been written by him, was only a little older, and had just held a full moon banquet, and grabbed his father's sword at the banquet, and his father and mother were very happy, saying that this child would be a great sword fairy in the future, maybe he would still be an immortal.
Thinking in a daze, thinking about it, Wei Wuxian suddenly cried.
He said blankly, "...... Who's going to sue me...... What should I do now?"
