But Liu Ting'er didn't realize that the danger was coming, she looked at the painting intently, and whispered the poem in her mouth.

The lid of the coffin opened again, and a transparent figure silently sneaked out of the coffin.

I saw her soothing her right hand lightly, and suddenly slapped Liu Ting'er's back!

Just when Qi Lu thought that Liu Ting'er would be knocked down by the sneak attackers, Liu Ting'er actually reflexively struck the silver whip at the comer. Seeing that the whip was being whipped at the man, the sneak attacker dodged the attack with lightning speed and retreated out of the range of the silver whip.

At this time, Qi Lu saw that the person who attacked him was Hu Lingyun, and he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart.

"Strange, you're out of the hole, huh?" Liu Ting'er was also shocked.

"Huh! I knew someone was following. Hu Lingyun smiled and said, "It was just my doppelganger who went out just now." ”

"The predecessor is really the old Jianghu!" Liu Ting'er snorted lightly, and the silver whip in her hand struck Hu Lingyun fiercely! Hu Lingyun didn't dodge or dodge, and stretched out his right palm again to greet him.

I saw that the silver whip touched Hu Lingyun's right hand, and it suddenly scattered like crumbs. followed by Hu Lingyun's palm and hit Liu Ting'er's chest, Liu Ting'er screamed, and her body was knocked to the stone wall and fell heavily.

"Say, why are you stalking me?" Hu Lingyun shouted.

Qi Lu was terrified in the back, he really didn't expect Hu Lingyun to have such terrifying strength, and he knocked Liu Ting'er down without even using a spell. Qi Lu couldn't help but make a judgment in his mind that even he couldn't believe: Is Hu Lingyun the incarnation of Nujiao?

"Senior, forgive me for the sake of me being a first-time offender!" Liu Ting'er knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing, and her previous arrogant expression had long been replaced by horror.

Hu Lingyun said coldly: "I don't think you dare to follow me on your own, tell me who instructed you to come, and I will let you go back." ”

Liu Ting'er fell to the ground and didn't dare to make a sound.

"If you don't say it, I know that Yuxuan sent you, right?"

"Yes." Liu Ting'er saw that Hu Lingyun had seen through the truth, so she had to admit it honestly.

"Why would he do that?"

"The patriarch heard that the senior has returned, and I hope you can go back and help him restore the prestige of the Semitic clan."

"Hmph, I don't even have nostalgia for Qingqiu, do I still care about those false names?"

Qi Lu's face was feverish when he heard this, and only then did he know that he had guessed the wrong identity of Hu Lingyun. If she is a female Jiao, let alone Liu Ting'er, even Hu Yuxuan doesn't have the courage to follow her. Even if they have something to ask for, they will respectfully offer a generous gift to invite their ancestors. Otherwise, if the matter spreads, the demon clan will say that he deceived his teacher and destroyed his ancestors.

Although Qi Lu didn't know Hu Lingyun's true identity yet, judging from the strength of her shot just now and the conversation between the two, Qi Lu could be sure that she was a more advanced existence above the fox demon this time.

God! She is a god, to be precise, she is a fox fairy cultivated by a fox demon.

Liu Ting'er was still persuading Hu Lingyun to go back to the Shan clan to meet Hu Yuxuan, but Hu Lingyun waved her sleeves coldly and said: "Go back and tell Yuxuan that if I want to meet him, I will go to his house to find him, and I don't need him to these wrongs." ”

"Since the seniors have made up their minds, then I'll go back and tell the patriarch." Liu Ting'er saw that she didn't look so angry, and hurriedly made an excuse to get out safely.

"Go back and bring my words to Yuxuan. Remember, don't reveal my whereabouts to anyone, and if you have to send someone to follow me, don't blame me for not thinking about my kind! ”

When Qi Lu heard this, he knew that Liu Ting'er was coming out, so he quickly sneaked out of the cave first, and then went back to hide in his place.

Liu Ting'er hurried away after coming out of the cave, and she didn't dare to stay for half a second longer.

Qi Lu also knew that Hu Lingyun's mana was amazing, and he was still an extremely smart god. He thought to himself that the monk couldn't run away from the temple anyway, and now that he knew her residence, it was better to follow her another day when she was unprepared, so as not to expose his identity.

Qi Lu smoked a few cigarettes in the grass one after another, making sure that Hu Lingyun did not come out, and Liu Ting'er almost went down the mountain, so he got out and went down the mountain to return to the Kunlun office.

It was noon when Qi Lu returned to the office, and as soon as he opened the door with the key, he saw Lao Wu lying on the sofa and falling asleep, and couldn't help but get angry, and hurriedly stepped forward to wake up Lao Wu.

"Don't make a fuss, I tossed all night last night, and you let me have a good rest." Lao Wu turned over and prepared to go back to sleep.

Qi Lu was anxious, and hurriedly pulled him up and sat down and asked, "What are you doing here, why aren't you at Ding Xiaolan's house?" ”

"What do you have to worry about, Xiao Ding probably sleeps at home."

"Hu Yu is dead, her life is in danger at any time!"

"You think too much, the murderer wanted to kill her and did it yesterday." Lao Wu opened his sleepy eyes and said, "Besides, if I stayed at her house last night, what would the neighbors think?" I thought that Xiaoding had a bad taste and found a lewd uncle to be his boyfriend, but I couldn't afford to lose this face. ”

"You, you" Qi Lu calmed down and thought about it after being angry, and felt that Lao Wu's words were not wrong, the good opportunity killer ignored Ding Xiaolan yesterday, it seems that Ding Xiaolan is not a threat in his eyes.

So Qi Lu told him to go to Ding Xiaolan's house in the afternoon to teach spells, after all, with Lao Wu staying at Ding Xiaolan's house, Qi Lu could rest assured that he would investigate the case without worrying about her safety.

"Okay, I'll go to Xiaoding when I sleep for a while." Lao Wu muttered a sentence and then fell asleep on the sofa, and raised his collar to cover his ears.

Seeing that Lao Wu was sleeping like a dead pig, Qi Lu had no choice but to enter the bathroom with a wry smile, and after a brief freshening up in front of the washstand, he went out after a brief freshening up, he was going to visit Hu Qingyun in the Sixth Hospital.

Now there are all kinds of signs that the murderer wants to kill Hu Qingyun is the only one left, an elder, and the words overheard in Liu Ting'er's bedroom last night also show that Hu Yuxuan seems to be uneasy and kind to Hu Qingyun, and Qi Lu must understand all the truth hidden behind it.

Because Liu Chenfei said hello, the dean did not embarrass Qi Lu, and directly asked Hu Qingyun's chief physician, that is, the doctor surnamed Ke, to take him to see the patient.

"Mr. Qi, you are very lucky today, the patient's mood is very stable, and the unpleasant thing that happened last time will not happen. But I warn you not to irritate him. Dr. Ke said as he walked.

"Yes, Dr. Ke." Qi Lu nodded in agreement and followed him to visit Hu Qingyun in the ward.

When Dr. Ke opened the locked iron door, Qi Lu's eyelids couldn't help jumping, and when he calmed his emotions and followed Dr. Ke into the ward.

Hu Qingyun was lying on the bed reading a book, when she saw the two of them come in and put down the book.

"Mr. Hu, how are you feeling today?"

"Thank you, Dr. Ke, I'm feeling good today."

Dr. Ke said, "Mr. Hu, this Mr. Qi wants to see you. ”

"I know." Hu Qingyun's eyes were full of confidence, and he was asking for Dr. Ke's opinion: "I want to talk to this gentleman alone, can I get your permission?" ”

After receiving Qi Lu's affirmative answer, Dr. Ke had to repeatedly tell him that if the patient had anything abnormal, he must notify the nurses and physicians in time. With that, Dr. Ke left the ward and locked the door.

With the sound of the iron door "rattling", Qi Lu suddenly felt like he was in prison. He couldn't help but feel sympathy when he looked at Hu Qingyun's handsome face, thinking that he was a powerful Semitic hero back then, but now he is trapped here and is being treated by doctors like ordinary people.

Hu Qingyun said slightly apologetically: "I'm really sorry for accidentally pinching you last time." ”

"It's fine." Qi Lu knew that he was ill at that time, and he didn't take it to heart, so he sat at the head of the bed and took out a cigarette case and handed it to Hu Qingyun.

Hu Qingyun took it and smoked it beautifully, and it could be seen that he hadn't smoked for a long time.

Qi Lu said: "It seems that you look good today." ”

"Hehe, not every psychopath is hallucinating all the time. I'm suffering from intermittent psychosis, so you'd better stay away from me when you're sick. Hu Qingyun took another puff of cigarette and started a homely conversation with Qi Lu: "It's been a while since we last met, right?" ”

"Yes." Qi Lu sighed with emotion, a few years ago, he chased and killed a snake demon who devoured children, and seeing that he was going to successfully escape under his nose, it was Hu Qingyun who was passing by who helped him to let the snake demon get the punishment he deserved.

But Qi Lu didn't just come to chat today, he paused and asked Hu Qingyun: "How can a fox demon with high mana like you get mentally ill?" ”

"Don't you think that's incredible?" A mysterious smile appeared at the corner of Hu Qingyun's mouth.

"Yes, I do wonder why you're sick."

"It couldn't be simpler, I was framed." Hu Qingyun asked Qi Lu: "Have you ever heard of a black mandala?" ”

Qi Lu's heart suddenly tightened, the black mandala was a mysterious flower produced in the Western Regions, the flower was shaped like a lily, but the petals were as black as ink. This flower blooms at night like an epiphany, and it is said that because there is a fairy living in the flower, the fragrance of the flower is light and elegant. If someone is lucky enough to come across an elf coming out of the flower just as it is blooming, he can also help you fulfill a wish.

On the surface, the black mandala is an auspicious flower, but if you are fooled by its gaudy appearance, you are very wrong. This flower is actually similar to a psychopath with a split personality, it is a demon flower that integrates good and evil.

If you pull the roots of the black mandala off the ground, you will be surprised to find that its intertwined roots resemble the appearance of a human, and legend has it that when you pull up its roots, you will hear the desperate screams of its stems and leaves, and anyone who hears this cry will either die or go crazy.

Some evil sorcerers transplant the black mandala in a flower pot according to this property, and water it every day with their own blood, and when the flower is in full bloom, the elf will die, and his corpse will be absorbed by the flower as nutrients and turn into a purple red as blood.

The blood-soaked flowers can then be powdered to create a potion that will deprive the user of his mind and become a madman.

So when Qi Lu heard Hu Qingyun say the name Black Mandala, he already understood the real reason for Hu Qingyun's illness, so he quickly asked, "Who harmed you?" Hu Yuxuan? ”

Hu Qingyun smiled and asked, "Why do you think that the person who harmed me is Hu Yuxuan?" ”

"According to the information I have at hand, when I was running for patriarch, you were his strong rival, and there are rumors in your Semitic clan that Hu Yuxuan has always had bad intentions towards you." Now Qi Lu didn't dare to tell him about Hu Yuxuan and Liu Ting'er's cheating last night.

"Hehe, good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles." Hu Qingyun said: "Of course I know who is harming me. But this is a dispute within our Semitic race, and it is a matter of honor for our own people, so I can't tell you. ”

Qi Lu didn't expect Hu Qingyun to give himself such an answer, and said in his heart that Hu Qingyun does not speak lightly about the rights and wrongs of others, and his good reputation in the Semitic clan is not earned by boasting.

Qi Lu had no choice but to change the topic and ask him, "May I ask how the previous patriarch died?" ”

"Mr. Qi is really well-informed, why are you interested in the reason for the death of the old patriarch?"

"That's because Hu Yuxuan begged me to investigate the cause of his father's death, and he suspected that his father's death was poisoned by someone else."

"The old patriarch did die an unnatural death, and there were rumors in my clan for a while, and the most unreliable rumor actually said that he was killed by his own son."

Qi Lu was stunned when he heard this, thinking that Hu Yuxuan asked me, an outsider, to investigate the cause of my father's death, and it turned out that there was a purpose to clear suspicion.
