Chapter 74: Another Illusion
Liu Tingting wanted to say, and remembered that the illusion in the illusion in Nanjian Town could change with their conversation. When he came out, he encountered a sneak attack by the people of the Ghost Poison Sect, and thinking that the wall had ears, it was inconvenient to go down, and said: "Uncle Hu, it will be difficult to explain for a while, so it is better to talk about it in detail in your leisure time later." ”
Hu Jue also seemed to see what she meant, and nodded: "What the young master said is true." ”
Liu Tingting turned around and walked into the room, looked around carefully, and found nothing strange, so she sat down on the stool and said, "The ghost poison sect's ghost illusion technique can only be used at night, and now it's dark night, so we'd better not step out of this room, lest we fall into the trick." ”
Hu Jue, Yao Jia, and Chen Shiqing nodded again and again, and Yao Jia dodged and hid on the side of the window to monitor the situation outside.
Hu Jue wanted to sweep the blood stains on the ground, Liu Tingting hurriedly stopped and said: "Don't rush to clean up the blood stains first, sometimes these things will be useful." ”
Hu Jue nodded and said, "The young master should rest early, and I and Ajia are guarding here, don't worry." ”
Where can Liu Tingting rest at ease, sat cross-legged on the big chair, and asked, "Uncle Ahu, has something strange happened in the rivers and lakes in the past three years?"
Hu Jue thought for a while and said, "There is nothing particularly strange, why did the young master ask?"
Liu Tingting asked, "Is there anything about my teaching?"
Hu Jue said: "There is a matter of headache about my teaching, but please don't be angry." ”
Liu Tingting nodded and said, "But it's okay to say it." ”
Hu Jue said: "Two years ago, a rumor spread out of nowhere that Daoist Fu Xuan was killed by the apostate leader. For a while, the entire martial arts spread to the ears, and it quickly reached the ears of the sect leader. It is said that in order to win the Xuantian Sword and the Xuantian True Scripture of Fu Xuan, the rebel sect leader designed to kill him and became the number one master in the world. The sect leader immediately ordered me and Qianxian and ten elders to go down the mountain to investigate the matter, and we were about to find a clue half a year ago. However, when the sect leader practiced in retreat, he accidentally fell seriously ill and fell ill overnight. When the Thousand Yang Envoy passed the book to me, I was investigating in Xiushan, and by the time I rushed back to Wuxuan Palace, the sect leader had already recovered. The sect leader suddenly ordered that the matter should not be investigated, and the sect leader believed that continuing the investigation was not only suspected of not being self-defeating, but also deliberately taking advantage of the matter to make a big deal. When it comes to rumors, they will be self-defeating when the time comes. ”
Liu Tingting said: "Since it is a rumor that should be broken, it must be broken, and the so-called rumor can be described as difficult to clear up without investigation." ”
Hu Jue nodded and said, "Maybe the sect leader sees the turmoil in the country and the chaos in the rivers and lakes, and he doesn't want to add more cholera here." ”
Liu Tingting pondered for a while, sighed lightly and said, "The master is kind and generous. It can accommodate hundreds of rivers and open the sky. It's better to sigh at oneself, but you also need to cultivate your heart sincerely and deeply understand morality. ”
Hu Jue said: "The sect leader is well-read, deep channel righteous classics, integrated cultivation, and the avenue of the world, there is no one before and no one after him." ”
Liu Tingting nodded and asked, "Is this the only thing?"
Hu Jue pondered for a while and said: "There is another thing that the young master already knows, that is, after the sect leader recovered, he established the second major general altar Sanyuan Palace in Xiushan. ”
Liu Tingting was a little puzzled and asked, "Why does the master want to build the Sanyuan Palace in Xiushan?"
Hu Jue said: "The sect leader said that there are many altars, and it is difficult to preach morality. In turbulent times, it is possible to prevent problems before they happen. ”
Liu Tingting said: "The master is really well-intentioned, did Uncle Hu and the clan elders go to Sanyuan Palace?"
Hu Jue said: "There are also four elders, Yu Jie, Luo Jinxian, Wu Hongyi, and Chen Qiu. Luo Fangyong, Zhang Shibing, Fu Yan, Li Jiangxuan, and Fang Zizhong stayed in Wuxuan Palace to guard. ”
Liu Tingting nodded slightly and asked, "Can the master's "Complete Book of Taoist Classics" be compiled?"
Hu Jue said: "It has been compiled, and one volume of the sect leader's handbook is stored in Wuxuan Palace, and one copy of his subordinates is stored in Sanyuan Palace." ”
Liu Tingting was overjoyed after hearing this, and said with a smile: "The master's wish is also completed, so be sure to keep it alive." When you go back, you will definitely read it several times to comprehend the infinite classics in it. ”
Hu Jue said: "The subordinates obey the order, the young master is very intelligent, and he will definitely be able to comprehend morality and do something." After a pause, he asked again: "I don't know what kind of sword is the sword in the young master's hand, and how can it be so magical?"
Liu Tingting smiled and said, "The Yin and Yang Twins are called Qianxuan Sword. ”
Hu Jue pondered for a while and said, "My subordinates are not talented, there is such a divine sword in the world, but I have never heard of it. ”
Liu Tingting smiled and said: "This sword is hidden in the stone peak, the world does not know, and you naturally know very little. ”
Hu Jue nodded and said, "I see." ”
Yaojia found that many black-clothed people appeared on the opposite roof, flashed to Liu Tingting's side and said, "Sister, there are many black-clothed people outside, could it be the Ghost Poison Sect?" Chen Shiqing was startled, escorted to the window, and stared out.
Liu Tingting nodded and said: "I'm afraid it will be difficult to avoid tonight, and the firewood on my back must be carried well and must not be lost." He also ordered Hu Jue to put the candles and rosin powder beside the bed into a cloth bag and carry them on his back. As soon as Hu Jue carried his back, several rockets shot in through the window and shot into the bed, the fire quickly ignited, and the rockets continued to flow in the wind. Liu Tingting urged out the Qianxuan sword to block the rocket and broke through the roof. Hu Jue, Yaojia and Chen Shiqing jumped out with her. The four of them got up and went out, and the rain of arrows was already roaring, and the four of them waved their swords to avoid it. Liu Tingting held her sword to block the arrows and rushed towards the line of archers behind her. Hu Jue, Yaojia and Chen Shiqing rushed over with her. The four of them killed the archers on one side and landed at a crossroads in the street. The archers on the other side chased after them and fired arrows at the trio. Liu Tingting spun around and kept flying, only to see countless arrows around her body reflecting towards the archers on the roof. The arrows in the archers tumbled down, and in a moment they died down. Liu Tingting looked around carefully, and saw a green willow fluttering to the right with the wind not far away, and even a few branches fluttering again, she remembered it clearly. Then he looked up at the starry sky and the clouds, and saw that the clouds and mist were now floating to the east like a horse. She has a super memory, and she remembers these things clearly at a glance, and even a few private houses on the street, a few inns and shops, and a few lights are on at a glance.
The four of them stood motionless and looked around, when suddenly men in black rushed up from all four streets at the intersection. Liu Tingting looked up and saw that the roofs around her were full of people in black, she looked at the willow branches, the willow branches were still fluttering in the wind, looking up at the clouds, the clouds were also fluttering, thinking that this should be an illusion. Turning to look at the street, he found that the inns on the street were still lit up. Suddenly realized, took out a handful of rosin from Hu Jue's bag, and when the man in black on the roof jumped down and rushed to the man in black on the four streets, he spun around and sprinkled it, and the rosin was sprinkled in the air into a circle. The Qianxuan sword in his right hand slashed through the rosin, and the rosin was rubbed and ignited, and rushed towards the black-clothed people around. The men in black all disappeared without a trace with a bang. In fact, Liu Tingting found that the roofs around her were full of black-clothed people, and the four streets were all black-clothed people. But ordinary residents will definitely put out the lights as soon as possible to avoid accidents. But such a huge crowd gathered, but none of those families turned off the lights, which is the biggest flaw.
Yaojia asked, "Did you enter the illusion realm?"
Liu Tingting nodded silently, took out the dry paper, blew the fire fold and ignited the paper, and asked Yaojia to take out the firewood and burn it on the paper. A small fire slowly ignited, and Yaojia continued to throw firewood on the small fire, and the fire gradually grew larger, illuminating the surroundings. Immediately, Liu Tingting found that the cloud above her head had long disappeared, and there was no weeping willow not far away, but a stone slab. The cross-shaped fork turns into a street that extends to the right. The lights of the four residents on the side of the street had long since been extinguished, and it was pitch black. Liu Tingting sat cross-legged beside the fire and said, "The illusion here has been broken, but the fire cannot be extinguished until the sun rises. ”
Yaojia was puzzled and asked, "Sister, how do you know if it's an illusion?" How can I look very real, there is no sign of illusion?" Chen Shiqing was also very puzzled, and also wanted to know the answer. Hu Jue is well-informed, and he also feels that the situation here is very unusual.
Liu Tingting found that the changes in the illusion this time are, firstly, to break through the flaws that there was no movement before, and to set up an active scene, which is more realistic. The second is that the exit to finally crack the illusion is very hidden and difficult to find. The third is that the people in it are more real, making it difficult to distinguish the real from the fake. Until now, although she had broken through this illusion, she also knew that it was only a part of the whole illusion, and she was still at a loss as to where the exit to the entire illusion was. Yaojia asked her so, but she was reluctant to answer, because she knew that the illusion would change with her conversation. He replied, "I'll explain it to you in detail when I have time." ”
Yaojia said: "Sister, can the firewood in the cloth bag last until dawn?"
Liu Tingting looked at the firewood, looked up at the sky again, and said: "At this time, it is the third watch, if you burn two or two, it will be no problem." ”
Yaojia hurriedly withdrew two pieces of firewood and asked, "Is it okay if the fire is smaller?"
Liu Tingting nodded and said, "Of course, the bigger the better, but it is much stronger to have a flame than not to have a flame." Liu Tingting saw that the fire was smaller, and when the light did not reach the stone slab not far away, a weeping willow appeared at the stone slab, and the willow branch floated to the right with the wind. Overhead, a cloud that looked like a horse appeared, drifting eastward. The street that stretched to the right turned into a fork again, and the street on the right was lit by fire until the lights of the four houses that had been extinguished were lit again. Knowing that his guess was exactly right was only part of the whole illusion. If the fire is extinguished, she will fall into an illusion, and she doesn't know how to solve the whole illusion.
Hu Jue sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and said, "Young master, this 'ghost illusion' can only be used by the ghost master. There is an illusion here, which means that the ghost master is nearby, as long as you catch the ghost master and force him to hand over the seven people. If you don't hand it over, you will directly kill the ghost master and kill the ghost poison sect. lest you use this vicious illusion to kill many innocent people. ”
Liu Tingting raised her voice and said: "Why is it difficult to kill him, I intended to spare his life, but I have repeatedly done evil and not changed." But if I meet him, I will not spare him. She knew that the ghost master controlled the illusion, and she also heard the conversation in the illusion, and deliberately said it to him.
