Chapter 263: Fanwai San (Spirit in the Painting)
At that time, the body was found by a senior brother, and he liked to go to the back mountain in the morning to exercise, but when he arrived, he witnessed the body of senior brother Shi Xiang floating in the hot spring. No, this matter has to be reported to Mo Yao and Senior Brother Yunfeng quickly, if it drags on for a long time, I am afraid that his two lives will not be guaranteed. ”
As soon as Shao Jingbai's words fell, Yin Zhan got up and volunteered: "I'll go!" ”
After a while, Mo Yao and Yun Feng hurried over, and Mo Yao first checked the pulse of the two of them.
"How?" Yun Feng looked worried, his heart couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this, annoyed that he shouldn't have forgotten to remind them that they couldn't go to the back mountain to soak in the hot springs.
Mo Yao shook his head, his face was not very good-looking, he lowered his voice and said, "You look at them first, and I'll go find the uncles to come over." He left the place in a hurry.
Yi Yangzhi was so anxious that tears almost came out, grabbed Yun Feng's arm, and cried: "Senior Brother Yun, Jizhao should be fine, right?" ”
Yun Feng wrinkled his brows, stretched out his hand and probed the foreheads of the two, but there was no squeak.
Yin Zhan patted Yi Yangzhi's shoulder and comforted him: "Don't worry too much, the two of them are cold poison invaders, and there will be a way to rescue them when the uncles come." ”
At this time, Lan Fengyao took the time to call Yun Feng outside the door, and as soon as the two of them stood in the corridor, he went straight to the point and said, "How did Senior Brother Shixiang die?" ”
As soon as the words fell, a trace of panic flashed on Yun Feng's face, he looked left and right, dragged him around the corner, and said unhappily: "What are you asking about this?" ”
Lan Fengyao told him about the black shadow he saw last night, and of course, he didn't mention the brush.
Hearing this, Yun Feng fell into deep thought and confirmed, "Are you really right? ”
"No, I could see very clearly, the figure stood in the door for a long time, and when I went out, there was really nothing outside the door. I heard that Senior Brother Shi Xiang has committed a major taboo in the sect, and his death is related to the grandmasters......"
"Nonsense!" Yun Feng interrupted him, and then advised: "Don't say this kind of thing again in the future!" Don't discuss Shi Xiang's matter later, if it is heard by the uncles, it will be cut down with a cane, or directly expelled from the division. ”
Lan Fengyao glanced at the other party, pursed his lips tightly, although he was unwilling, but the other party had said this, he didn't want to ask more.
The incident of Lu Jizhao and Wang Ningxuan alarmed the four great masters, but they were all in retreat at this time, so the three senior uncles rushed over as soon as they got the news.
They drove out the other people and discussed how to save them.
In the evening, Yun Feng arranged two other side rooms for them according to the instructions of his uncles, and Lan Fengyao took out the paintbrush and looked at it carefully.
From the outside, this brush is no different from an ordinary brush, to put it bluntly, this is a brush. The reason why Lan Fengyao has always called it a "brush" is entirely because of the influence of those rumors.
He couldn't forget the cold chill that came from the pen last night, and he subconsciously felt that this pen must be related to Shi Xiang.
Lan Fengyao furrowed his brows, he still couldn't figure it out, the information he got from Shao Jingbai was also limited, and he couldn't restore the truth of the whole thing at all.
I don't know which tendon is wrong in my head, he saw a blank paper on the table not far away, and walked over unconsciously.
When he stood in front of the table, the pen seemed to be controlled by someone, and he actually drew on his own.
Lan Fengyao's pupils contracted rapidly, and he sat down on a chair in fright, and at this time, a figure appeared next to him......
However, this figure is just a wisp of soul, and with Lan Fengyao's Taoism, he can't see it yet.
Shi Xiang looked at him with a seemingly nonchalant smile on the corner of his mouth, and even a smile was revealed in his eyes.
He looks very cute, although he is a senior brother, but he looks really younger than these little junior brothers. The baby fat on his face has not yet receded, and there are black pupils that cannot be seen at a glance in a pair of big round eyes.
After Lan Fengyao calmed down, he got up and stood in front of the table, the brush rotated quickly on the paper, and in less than a stick of incense, a picture appeared on the paper.
It looks like a secret room with a box in the middle, and when you look at it from the painting, there is something in the box.
In the secret room was a young man, Lan Fengyao had never seen Shi Xiang, so he didn't dare to be sure of the identity of this young man.
Evil jade? Could it be that Wangxian Peak really has such a thing?
Lan Fengyao couldn't help muttering in his heart, he pondered for a while, looked at the painting again, and found that there were no other clues except for the secret room, the boy, and the evil jade.
The paintbrush was hanging vertically in front of him, Lan Fengyao stared at it, and said eagerly, "Are you trying to tell me something?" Can you give a little more information? ”
After saying this, he quickly moved the painting in front of him to the side, revealing a blank piece of paper, waiting for the brush to reveal some more news...... But at this moment, the door squeaked open......
Lan Fengyao quickly pulled the brush behind him with lightning speed, and covered the white paper on the painting.
"Yun, Senior Brother Yun, is there something wrong?"
Seeing that the person who came was Yunfeng, he asked honestly, but Rao was young, and the uneasy look on his face immediately fell into the eyes of the other party.
Yun Feng sniffed and looked around, Shi Xiang retracted his soul back into the brush with a "whoosh".
He should be glad that the person who came was Yunfeng, if it was Mo Yao, I am afraid that he would be discovered.
"Well, I'm just here to see if there's anything going on on your side? What about Yin Zhan? Yun Feng asked with a pretended calm face.
"He, he's out, he should be back in a while." Lan Fengyao glanced at the other party, and the hairs on his back rose.
"Hmm." Yun Feng glanced at him meaningfully, and then said, "If that figure still comes to you tonight, let me know, and you Senior Brother Mo Yao and I will live in the front yard." ”
"Got it." Lan Fengyao nodded.
It wasn't until the other party went out and closed the door that he breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the chair.
It's a pity that as soon as his butt was next to the chair, the door suddenly slammed open again, and Lan Fengyao was so frightened that he stood up, and his heart hung in his throat.
After Yin Zhan came in, he quickly stretched out his head and looked around, making sure that there was no one at the door, so he closed the door and hurriedly walked to Lan Fengyao.
Call......
Lan Fengyao breathed a sigh of relief, stroked his chest, and frowned dissatisfied: "You scared me to death, my heart was almost scared out by you." What did you find? ”
Yin Zhan lowered his voice and replied: "I just went to the hot spring in the back mountain to see, and the water there is indeed cold and biting. According to what the senior brother said, it was Senior Brother Shi Xiang's ghost that caused the spring water to become cold, what do you think? ”
Lan Fengyao shook his head, obviously not believing this statement.
"I don't believe it either, but I can't rule it out yet......"
"Ah......" Before Yin Zhan's words were finished, Lan Fengyao screamed unexpectedly, fell backwards, and sat down on the table.
"What's wrong with you?" Yin Zhan grabbed him and said worriedly.
Lan Fengyao's pupils contracted rapidly, and with a lot of strength, he pinched the other party's arm with a faint pain. Yin Zhan twisted his eyebrows and gritted his teeth.
"There's someone behind you!"
Hearing this, Yin Zhan's back was immediately frightened into a sweat, his head was stiff like a mechanical head, and he didn't dare to turn around at all. "Yes, yes, who is it?" ”
Lan Fengyao pulled Yin Zhan to his side, and the flickering shadow in front of him was still standing in place.
After Yin Zhan turned around and leaned on the table, he looked around, and said with a puzzled expression: "No, where is there anyone?" ”
Lan Fengyao pointed his hand in front of him, his eyes were like torches, he stood up straight, and said coldly: "Who are you?" ”
At this time, Yin Zhan understood that his Taoism was lower than that of the other party, and there must be some kind of demon in front of him, and he couldn't see it. Realizing this, he drew his sword with a "whoosh".
Lan Fengyao's Taoism is also limited, and he can't see the "person" in front of him clearly at all, he can only vaguely see a general outline, and his facial features are completely blurred.
At this time, the paintbrush suddenly appeared in front of him, Yin Zhan tightly grasped the sword in his hand, his eyes were staring at the pen, he made up his mind, as long as the other party made any trouble, he immediately split the brush.
Their hearts hung in their throats, and the paintbrush did not stop, but quickly flew to the table and wrote a few words on the white paper.
Lan Fengyao and Yin Zhan looked at each other, and the two turned around and looked at each other......
"I'm Shi Xiang!"
"Are you Shi Xiang?" Lan Fengyao said with a look of surprise, he quickly took out the painting, pointed to the person inside and continued to ask, "Is this you?" ”
Just when the two were waiting expectantly for each other's answers on the painting, there was a sudden movement in the courtyard, and Shi Xiang quickly flashed into the brush again.
"Haven't the two junior brothers rested yet?"
Outside the door was Mo Yao's voice, Lan Fengyao immediately made a silent movement, and then "coughed" twice, pretending to be calm and replied: "Let's rest." ”
After speaking, Yin Zhan quickly went to blow out the candle after comprehending it.
After waiting for the figure outside the door to walk away, Lan Fengyao hurriedly took out the paintbrush and asked in a low voice, "Senior brother, are you still there?" ”
……
The two waited for a long time, but there was no movement at all. Yin Zhan on the side guessed: "I'm afraid he won't come out tonight." ”
Well?
Lan Fengyao showed a puzzled look, he had guessed something, but he still wanted to hear Yin Zhan's opinion.
"If I'm not mistaken, my brother's soul is stored in this pen, if he doesn't come out, others won't be able to detect it, but once he comes out, people with high cultivation will be able to see him. For example, just now you can see his rough outline, but I can't see it at all. If it were Senior Brother Mo Yao and Senior Brother Yunfeng, he would definitely be able to see him. Strangely enough, though, he seemed to be deliberately avoiding them. Speaking of this, Yin Zhan dragged his jaw and fell into deep thought.
Lan Fengyao nodded, the other party's thoughts were the same as his, paused, and said: "Make a bold guess, is Senior Brother trying to tell us something, assuming that the person in the painting just now is really Senior Brother Shixiang, that means that he found the legendary treasure of Wangxian Peak, the evil jade, then how could he die in the hot spring?" ”
"Could it be that his death really has something to do with the Evil Jade?"
This sentence was in Lan Fengyao's arms, connecting all the clues in front of them, and they could only get so much information.
If you want to find out the real cause of Shi Xiang's death, I am afraid you have to rely on his own strength......
