Chapter 22 After Hardships, Truth Knows

Qin Yin sucked the snail powder and said casually: "What does that dead old man want to do, what does it have to do with me." ”

"I'm sure that Sun Laixi's house has a large number of antiques, but I don't know where they are."

"And the trace of the ink jade, the true body of the monster called the Devourer, must have a origin!"

After eating and drinking, Qin Yin casually threw the box into the trash, and stared at the greasy pork knuckle rice left in my box.

"Are you still eating? Don't eat it for me. ”

The oil was sticking to my throat, and I couldn't swallow it, so I pushed it to Qin Yin.

Qin Yin rolled her eyes, and also ate the bones and rice residues, and then touched her round belly and threw the lunch box into the trash.

"Hiccupβ€”what did you just say?"

I couldn't help frowning, "I said so much, and you didn't listen to a word!?" ”

"You don't say anything when you eat, you don't say anything when you sleep, you're a Taoist priest, you don't even understand this rule?"

Qin Yin's rhetorical question made me stunned.

When I lived with my grandfather in a cave, these were the most basic rules, but I had forgotten them all about when I went out for too long.

Without suffering, it is difficult to know.

Qin Yin was able to spend three months without food, knowing that food was not easy to come by, and knowing and doing together understood the truth.

It's ridiculous that I learned Taoism since I was a child, but I am not as good as a businessman with fine clothes and food......

Qin Yin glanced at the time, got up and said, "If there is nothing else, I will go back first." If you need support, feel free to call me. ”

"Wait."

"What else?"

"Can you stay with me tonight?"

Qin Yinqiao's face was slightly red, and she took a sip, "You only knew that you were enough to livestock, but you didn't expect to be so shameless that even I wouldn't let it go!" ”

"If you want to sleep, go to the woman of your Cleanser Alliance, I don't like you."

I couldn't help but have black lines all over my head, it seemed that she didn't listen to the conversation at the dinner table just now.

I reiterated: "I suspect that Sun Laixi's home is hiding a large number of illegal burial goods from the ancient tomb, and the devourer is also related to the ancient tomb. ”

"I'm not proficient in the origin of antiques, so I hope you can stay with me to help."

Slightly stunned, Qin Yin was a little embarrassed and said, "Yes." ”

……

Qin Yin's strength has declined and weakened so far, and he is no different from ordinary people.

It's a pity that in addition to Qin Lan, the only person around me who knows the most about antiques is Qin Yin.

When I'm alone, I can relax a little, and after Qin Yin joins, I have to be vigilant at all times to protect her safety.

Qin Yin's work and rest were extremely regular, and she began to yawn at more than eight o'clock, curled up on the simple folding sofa, and fell asleep deeply.

I lay next to her and pretended to sleep, but in fact I kept an eye on everything around me.

If the members of the Cleaner Alliance who died before were all related to Sun Laixi. Then tonight, he will definitely attack me and Qin Yin, who are "defenseless"!

……

After lying quietly for three hours, at about eleven o'clock, Qin Yin suddenly woke up from her sleep.

Seeing me lying beside me, she let out a low cry and jumped up, nervously checked her clothes, and was slightly relieved after making sure that there were no traces of movement.

She got up and went to the toilet, and when she came back, she rubbed the water on my clothes and muttered, "I slept like a dead pig, and I counted on you to protect me, I don't know how many times I have died!" ”

"Forget it, just take it as your aunt owes you ......"

Qin Yin wiped her face with a wet tissue, slept on the sofa with slippers, and carried a self-defense dagger in her arms, staring at her two eyes and carefully observing the surroundings.

As the night wore on, there was not a glimmer of light in the room, and no one but me could see that her eyes were open.

She has a little conscience if she can help me keep vigil......

In the third watch of the night, the yin force between heaven and earth gradually became stronger. A thin miasma of mist seeped out little by little along the crack in the door of the storage room.

This special yin qi can only be detected by people who are familiar with yin and yang.

Sun Laixi deliberately drove us away, so he didn't prepare the futon. In Zhuzhou in early spring, the night is still bone-chilling.

Although Qin Yin couldn't see the yin qi, she could also feel that the air was getting colder and colder.

Although she was wearing a cotton suit, the yin qi could penetrate the clothes and invade people's skin and bones.

Qin Yin, who was disgusted and unwilling to be next to me before going to bed, had already shrunk into my arms at this time, and Rou Yi unceremoniously stuffed it into my neckline to keep warm.

I was so chilled by her that I was about to push her aside, when suddenly a heavy yin force quickly condensed in the storage room!

After a few breaths, the asphalt-like sticky mass surged outward along the crack in the door of the storage room, and finally converged into a humanoid monster more than two meters tall.

I practice the Taoist Heavenly Eye Technique, and even with my eyes closed, I can survey a certain range of surrounding scenes.

When I saw the black jade the size of a fingernail at the center of the monster's eyebrows, I could be sure that this guy was the Devourer!

When the monster moved forward a little bit, Sun Laixi also saw her figure in the dark, her pupils were constricted, and her delicate body was tense, but she didn't scream.

As a person who has seen the world, Sun Laixi calmly clenched the dagger at this time, and pinched my waist, trying to wake me up.

I shifted slightly, pressed it to her ear, and said in an undetectable voice, "Don't make a noise, I'll deal with it when it gets close." ”

Unexpectedly, Qin Yin's face turned red as blood in an instant, and her neck seemed to be ripe, and she subconsciously let out a tout.

Looking at each other, in Qin Yin's murderous eyes, I was extremely embarrassed.

The voice-activated lights in the hallway of the entrance lit up, illuminating the Devourer's figure.

Its shape resembles that of a human, except that its flesh and skin are made entirely of turquoise, slimy asphalt-like stuff.

I could perceive that it had faint fluctuations in life, but the breath of the soul did not belong to a human being, or any species.

Don't...... Is it some kind of undiscovered spirit!?

The golden light spell has been condensed, and it was supposed to be at close range to exert its greatest power.

Sensing my attention, the Devourer stood still, hesitating to step forward.

I had no choice but to trigger the condensed spell and turn it into a light spell and throw it on the devourer's body.

Uh-

The golden light stirred, and the Devourer took several steps back, a low, hoarse roar emanating from his throat.

What's strange is that the Devourer seems to be immune to my spell, and the golden light spell that has been condensed for a long time does not bring it any damage!

Oops, hit a hard stubble!

I lowered my voice and leaned in Qin Yin's ear and was about to speak, but she took a step back like a plague god, covering her ears and looking at me angrily.

Helplessly, I whispered: "When the fight starts later, you don't care about anything, run downstairs first, and try to go to a crowded place." ”

Qin Yin nodded tremblingly, and retreated to the door step by step.

The Devourer roared like a frenzy and rushed at me like crazy!

Its aura is not strong, and it stands to reason that ordinary spells can be cleaned up, but for some reason, it is immune to my spells.

I have no way back, I can only try to condense the thunder method and have a hard fight with it.

When Rayfa finished condensing and was about to collide with the Devourer, it turned around and turned into a puddle of liquid through the crack in the door and burrowed into Sun Laixi's bedroom.

I hurriedly stepped forward and slammed the door, "Open the door, the Devourer has run to your room!" ”

Shouted several times, but there was no response.

And after the Devourer entered Sun Laixi's room, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, and the breath disappeared without a trace.

And I noticed that in the place separated from me, there was a faint breath of a living person......

My eyes can break through delusion, and ordinary cat's eyes can't stop my gaze.

From the cat's eye, it can be seen that Sun Laixi is leaning against the door with a fire axe in his hand.

The wrinkled old face was pale by the moonlight outside the window, and the yellow eyes were murderous, holding his breath and staring, as if he was waiting for something......

He'd been waiting by the door, and he had definitely seen the Devourer scurrying underground!

Holding an axe and not attacking the Devourer, then who is he trying to deal with!?

I couldn't help but be vigilant, took a step back and held down the dagger hidden in my waist, knocked on the door hard, raised my voice and shouted: "Sun Laixi, wake up, the house is burning!" ”

After a while, Sun Laixi's confused voice came from the room, "What are you calling blindly, it's like a special mother reporting a funeral." ”

When he pushed the door open, Sun Laixi changed into pajamas at some point, pulled his shoes, and looked sleepy-eyed.

As for the previous fire axe, I don't know where he hid it.

Sun Laixi is acting with us.

But...... Why is he acting!?
