Chapter 10: The Trial of the Descent (5)
When they arrived at Longchi, as soon as they entered the city gate, the people in the city saw Fengli and others, and they surrounded them one after another. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info people are very enthusiastic, someone handed over two eggs, someone sent two flatbreads, and there were even people holding two pieces of cloth to give them a fortress, Fengli instantly felt familiar when he saw the cloth. Seeing that there were more and more people around, Fengli and the others were all inexplicable. But seeing Bai Qi smiled and said, "You don't have to be polite on a blind date, it is the duty of my faction to eliminate the demon guard, and a few of us still have important matters, please let the villagers pass by." As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a burly man walk out of the crowd, stand in front of Bai Qi and say to him, "Oh, the Taoist is polite." These things are all our gratitude. I'm sorry to block the way of the road chiefs. He looked around and said to the people behind him, "Come, let's get out of the way." "People are stepping back and making way for them.
Walking out of the crowd, Fei Zi asked Bai Qi for some reason, "Senior Brother Bai Qi, what did those people want to thank us just now?" ”
Bai Qi smiled, "It's not to thank us, it's to thank Uncle Xie and them." I don't understand this. According to what the man said two days ago, how could the people in the city still wander around the city in such a panic. Looking at the current situation, the chaos in this city is only afraid that Uncle Shi and them have solved it. The people should have seen that we were dressed the same as our uncle, and Ken came to thank us. After that, he looked at Fengli again, "Are you at ease now?" ”
Fengli is still silent, and her current mood is very complicated. When she walked along the road in her memory to the door of the Feng family, looking at the familiar and unfamiliar door of the Feng family, she didn't know if it was the appearance in her memory, and the person inside still recognized her. In the past six years, she has changed from a little girl to a young girl, and her appearance is no longer the little person she used to be. What about Aunt Feng? Six years later, she should still be the gentle and beautiful woman she remembers.
She took a deep breath and stepped forward and knocked on the door, calling out, "Aunt Feng, Aunt Feng, I'm back." The door opened halfway, but the person who opened the door was not the person she wanted to see at this time. Feng Li looked at the person who opened the door for a moment, and then thought that it must be Uncle Mu who brought the senior brothers here, so he didn't think much about it, just said hello to the senior brother who opened the door and went in.
Feng Fan once mentioned in the letter that his home is not the same as before, but he is still a little dumbfounded to see it with his own eyes, there are so many more houses. She looked back at the senior brother who opened the door and said, "Senior brother, where are Uncle Mu and Aunt Fan?" “
The senior brother didn't answer, but his face was not very good, and he said to Bai Qi and the others who were still outside the door, "Senior brother, junior sister, let's come in and talk." It's a long story. ”
Feng Li heard this, and her heart chuckled, and sure enough, something happened?
It is said that on that day, after Mu Xunfeng asked his disciples not to form a formation outside the city, he explored around the city. However, they did not find anything unusual in the city at that time, and combined with all the signs, he came to two conclusions. First, if you invade the city at night, you will leave at sunrise, and you will be in the form of a beast. This is a trait that only low-level beasts and demons who are afraid of sunlight have. Because they are afraid of the sun, they usually hide in the mountains and forests and rarely come to the towns. Second, the targets of the attacks are all outsiders, and there are always girls missing, so they must be looking for someone. And the thoughts of the beasts and demons are not so complicated, so there must be more powerful demons behind this. There is a reasonable explanation for the abnormal behavior of beasts and demons.
It was that night that he decided to focus on the formation outside the city. He also instructed his disciples to exterminate all the invaders who tried to enter the city in vain, and if any of them fled back, they should not be ignored. He wanted to go and see who the demons were behind it.
The sky was getting dark, and night covered the land. The night sky in Longchi County is covered by thick cumulus clouds, and there is not a trace of the brilliance of the stars and moon. The disciples sat in the four corners of the city, cross-legged and chanting. After the formation is activated, if a foreign object enters the formation, it will attract heavenly thunder, and the power of the formation is determined by the ability of the array. With the cultivation of these disciples, if they are struck by lightning in this array, the cultivation of the first point will be directly wiped out, and it will be difficult for the cultivation to retreat. Even if there is a fish that slips through the net, he will take action when necessary.
Everything is ready, the night is getting darker, and the wooden sword is above the town, using magic to sense the situation around the town so that it can strike at the right time. It wasn't long before he noticed a dozen black figures coming towards them from the southwest. They were getting closer and closer, and Mu Xunfeng could see the dark shadows clearly. His heart turned out to be the corpse wolf beasts of the demon race, they feed on the inside of living things, no wonder people have no heart and lungs after death, they must have been used as supper.
They were extremely fast, and the corpse wolf beasts that ran at the front went straight to the city, and they had already stepped into the formation before they even entered the city. Immediately, there was a blue light outside Longchi City, and then the thunder "clicked" and "clicked" and slashed down, and it was already wiped out before they even knew it. The dozen or so people who followed behind hurriedly stopped when they saw this scene, wandered left and right in front of the formation for a quarter of an hour, changed directions and prepared to rush into the city.
That night, the thunder outside the city rang intermittently for nearly an hour, accompanied by the thunder and the flickering blue light. The night passed with the roar of thunder. Because there were no casualties in their defending city. But what Mu Xunfeng didn't expect was that he wanted to follow the fleeing corpse wolf beast to track down the people of the demon clan behind the scenes, but unexpectedly, none of them escaped, even if he sensed that the formation surrounded the entire city, he still rushed forward desperately. This incident made him feel a little abnormal, but things were already like this, so he had to plan otherwise.
Mu Xunfeng instructed his disciples to withdraw the formation outside the city, and then went door to door to tell the people in the city that it was the disciples of Shushan who were exterminating demons last night. Reassure them, and tell them to keep their doors closed tonight and not to come out. Then let the disciples gather the girls aged 15 to 17 in the city in one place, and set up a formation here. He thought that since the demons had spared no effort to find this girl, it could be seen that this person was very important to them. The corpse wolf beast did not return last night, and he bet that the demon people behind the scenes tonight would definitely appear in person, so he asked Jun to enter the urn to catch turtles in the urn.
The disciple who narrated the incident explained the matter in detail, but Feng Li was very anxious when she heard it, and she interrupted directly, "Senior brother, you directly say the point." Where did Uncle Mu and my Aunt Fan go? The more she listened, the more anxious she became, and she really couldn't understand what the senior brother had to do with Aunt Fan's disappearance.
Bai Qi raised his hand and pinched the trick to make Fengli obediently shut up, and then motioned for the disciple to ignore her and continue.
The disciple glanced at Fengli, and then said to Bai Qi, "That night, as Uncle Shi expected, as soon as the night fell, two people from the demon clan entered the city. One was dressed in a black robe, the other was red-haired. The demonic aura emitted was far superior to that of those corpse wolf beasts. They seemed to sense where our formation was, and they came straight towards us. Uncle Shi intercepted them halfway, and the three of them fought in the city. We couldn't act because we had to guard the formation, so we could only watch the three of them fight. Uncle Shi seriously injured Hongyi, and the other gradually fell behind. Unexpectedly, at this time, the red-clothed demon clan who had been injured tried his best to sneak attack, and just when I was about to remind my uncle, Miss Fengfan suddenly appeared. Her screams caught the attention of the two demons. So while Uncle Shi was distracted, the black-robed demon clan kidnapped Fengfan girl and fled with the seriously injured red-clothed demon clan. Uncle Shi instructed me to go to the concubine's mansion first after we meet with you, and he will go directly to the concubine's mansion to find us after he saves people. Then he chased after the demons. “
Seeing that the disciple finished speaking, Bai Qi accepted Fengli's stop speech. As soon as I received the calligraphy, I heard her ask, "Why did Aunt Fan suddenly go out?" "She doesn't understand. Aunt Fan can't subdue demons and subdue demons, so what does she do when she runs out when it's dangerous?
The disciple shook his head to indicate that he didn't understand either. If it was said that he was worried about Uncle Shi, even if the situation was critical at the time and they couldn't take action, with Uncle Shi's cultivation, even if they didn't remind him out loud, he should be able to sense the danger. What could a mortal woman do in that situation?
Feng Li walked up to the disciple and said, "Senior brother, do you remember which direction Uncle Shi was chasing?" ”
The disciple pointed outside the house and said, "The southeast of the city." ”
Feng Li grabbed the bags on the table and was about to leave. But one was dragged back by Bai Ji again.
After listening to what happened, Bai Qian also felt that this matter was not as simple as everyone thought before. He was thinking about what to do next, when he saw Fengli and asked for directions, and he was about to leave.
Bai Qi grinned and said, "Outside the city, in the southeast, even if there is a direction, but the southeast is also very big, where do you want to find it?" I haven't learned the technique of tracking, so if something happens to you, Uncle Shi will kill me when he comes back. The situation is complex today, and there is no need to act rashly. The top priority is not only to find the two of them, but also to bring back Senior Sister Fei Zi safely. "Fei Zi is not an official disciple of Shushan, and her background is complicated, so if she is injured at this time, I am afraid that it will be very troublesome.
Fengli never thought that this kind of thing would happen, she never thought about killing demons, she just wanted to learn medical skills in Shushan and then go down the mountain to open a pharmacy and live a peaceful life with Aunt Fan. But fate doesn't always seem to go her way. Every now and then, she makes a situation that is difficult for her to accept. At this point, she really regretted that she didn't study the other two subjects seriously.
She couldn't find someone, but she couldn't do it if she just waited. Looking at Bai Qi, she said sullenly, "Then what should I do now?" Listening to the senior brother's explanation, the two people of the demon clan seem to be a little powerful. I'm afraid that my uncle won't be able to cope with it, what if he gets hurt. ”
Bai Qian nodded and thought for a while, "Let go of the trial first, I will send two junior brothers back to tell the master about this matter, and let him send some more people to look for it together, and the others will go to the concubine's mansion with me, and send the senior sister to the concubine first, and we will wait for the news of the senior uncle there." ”
Everyone had no objections, and Fengli felt that there was no other better way to do it, so he had to agree.
After deciding on the decision, everyone went their separate ways, and the two disciples who went back to report the news set off first. The others stayed at Feng's house for one night, and the next morning they left for Jiujiang Mansion.
