Chapter 240: One Sword

Seeing that the Yin-Yang Knife was about to shoot into my chest, suddenly, a hand reached out and clamped the Yin-Yang Knife.

"Yikes!" She screamed, and the Yin-Yang Knife fell to the ground.

At the last moment, Xia Mengyao caught the Yin-Yang Knife, but because the Yin-Yang Knife was too cold for her, she let go of her hand, and the Yin-Yang Knife fell out of her hand.

I hurriedly asked, "Meng Yao, are you okay?" Xia Mengyao said that it was okay, but how could the Yin Yang Knife be so cold? I said that the Yin-Yang Knife was like this, it was cold and piercing, and then I said gratefully: "Thank you for catching the Yin-Yang Knife just now and saving my life!" As I spoke, I picked up the Yin-Yang Knife.

"No, I didn't catch the Yin-Yang Knife." Xia Mengyao said: "The speed of the Yin Yang Knife is too fast, I can't catch it at all. ”

"If you hadn't caught it, why did the Yin Yang Knife stop?" Could it be that there is another person who catches the Yin-Yang Knife for me?

Xia Mengyao frowned, saying that she also felt very strange.

"You know you can't pick it up, why do you still pick it up? Aren't you afraid of being injured by the Yin Yang Knife? "For Xia Mengyao's approach, I am both grateful and incomprehensible. Xia Mengyao said lightly: "I took the knife out of a natural reaction, but I didn't want you to be injured by the Yin Yang Knife, and I didn't think about anything else at that time." ”

It was a very simple sentence, but it touched my heart.

At this time, He Shuo and Ran Ran floated out of the Yin Yang Knife, and He Shuo grinned and said, "Brother Dao, I didn't scare you just now, did I?" After the joint efforts of me and Ran Ran, we were really able to fly the Yin Yang Knife back. ”

"Just now you and Ran Ran controlled the Yin Yang Knife and flew back?"

"yes." He Shuo was complacent: "I didn't expect it to succeed the first time!" ”

The sword soul really deserves to be the sword soul, and he has become one with the sword and the soul, which really surprises me.

Xia Mengyao angrily reproached: "You guys are so nonsense, do you know that you almost injured the knife just now!" He Shuo still grinned and said, "No, didn't we stop just now when we were ten inches away from Brother Dao?" ”

"So you stopped by yourself?" Xia Mengyao suddenly realized.

"That's right, otherwise how could you catch the Yin Yang Knife?" He Shuo was gearing up for a while, "Brother Dao, let's go find that iron-masked woman immediately, and we will break her with one sword." ”

I'm still worried, because although the Yin-Yang Knife can be controlled by He Shuo and Ran Ran and fly back, I can't catch it. In case the other party is faster than me and catches the Yin-Yang Knife before me, won't the Yin-Yang Knife change hands? I want Xia Mengyao to suggest that before going to the man in the iron mask, I will practice taking the knife first.

So, He Shuo and Ran Ran returned to the Yin-Yang Knife, I held the knife and shot at the wall, the Yin-Yang Knife shot straight back at the moment it hit the wall, I hurriedly reached out to pick it up, but I went to catch it, fortunately the Yin-Yang Knife stopped when it was half an inch away from my chest.

After a few rounds of practice, I was finally able to catch the Yin-Yang Knife within two seconds of its stopping. Because we didn't have much time, we didn't have much time to practice, so we hurried to find the Man in the Iron Mask.

After looking for a while, the maid ghost appeared in front of us, she asked me if I was going to find the Man in the Iron Mask, I said yes, she said she could help us find it, but I had to promise her a condition, I was worried that she was the same as the Man in the Iron Mask, so I decisively refused her. The maid girl ghost followed and said, "This is a haunted mansion, and everything here is controlled by her, without me, you can't find her." ”

Xia Mengyao was moved, and asked the maid girl what conditions she needed us to promise her, and the maid girl said: "I committed suicide back then, and because my resentment was too heavy, I have been trapped in this haunted house, and there are only two ways for me to get out of here, one is to find a stand-in, and the other is to find the scissors that I committed suicide to destroy it, so that I can get rid of the shackles here and go to reincarnation." ”

I believed her and said I could help her find scissors.

Follow the maid to a dilapidated house, she said that she committed suicide in this room back then, and the scissors should be in it. I pushed the door open, and a very thick rotten gas came to my nose, and the room was unusually dark, like a big black hole, as if a cold air came out of it, and kept pouring into my nose, and I realized that the wind seemed to be blowing from below, that is, it was not a simple room at all, but a black hole!

"Get in." The maid ghost urged behind my back, "The scissors are inside, as long as you help me find it and destroy it, I can get out of here." ”

I grabbed the wrist of the maid and threw it into the room, and the maid screamed and disappeared into the black hole in an instant.

Suddenly, a cold wind came from my back, and I hurriedly turned around, only to see the Man in the Iron Mask appear behind us at some point, shooting a pair of rusty scissors straight at me. It came like lightning, and it reached my forehead in a blink of an eye, Xia Mengyao stood beside me, caught the scissors, and shot the yin and yang knife towards the man in the iron mask.

"Boom!" The Yin-Yang Knife was shooting directly at the iron mask, and the iron mask broke and split in two, and the Yin-Yang Knife quickly flew back, and I quickly caught it. In the moment when the iron mask was torn, the surrounding scene began to disappear, and the face behind the ghost mask also appeared, sure enough, it was a woman, she looked surprised, probably did not expect me to break her mask, and her face flashed in front of my eyes, that face seemed to have been seen somewhere.

My whole body sank suddenly, and my eyes were bright, and I found that Xia Mengyao and I had returned to the corridor of the hotel, and a man in Tsing Yi was standing a foot away from us, and then turned around and ran downstairs.

"Stop!" I yelled and chased after him.

Liu Xuyang and Mi Junfei also ran out of the room, we chased downstairs, where is the shadow of that person?

Back in the room, Xia Mengyao still had water droplets on her forehead that had just come out of the bathroom. In other words, our minds have not been in the ghost house for a long time, and the Tsing Yi in the corridor is the ghost mask man, she is very close to our body left in reality, if I and Xia Mengyao don't come back in time, she is very likely to kill people and rob knives in reality.

Mi Junfei said that it is still not safe for two people to live in one room, and it seems that four people have to live in one room. I said no, I already know the ghost trick of the onmyoji, and I can live in a room alone. Xia Mengyao glanced at me, and stopped talking.

The strange thing is that in the next two days, the onmyoji didn't come to trouble us again, could it be that we hit her hard in the haunted mansion, and she didn't dare to violate it again?

But the truth is, it's much more than that.

At dusk on the third day, we finally arrived in Shaanxi. We stayed at a hotel that night, and Liu Xuyang said that we will enter the destination of our trip tomorrow, and there will be a long time of underground work, so we should have a good rest tonight. I asked him, is the ninth floor of Yinshan buried underground? Only then did Liu Xuyang reveal to me that the place we went to this time was not the ninth floor of Yinshan. I was surprised, and said that we are not here to go to the ninth floor of Yinshan this time? Why didn't you go there again? Liu Xuyang said coldly: "You don't have to ask about this, just follow us." ”

"Well, I don't ask." I said with great displeasure: "It's just that I don't understand one thing, why do you have to call me, for you, I am a rookie, not only can I not help you, but I will become a burden to you, you ask me to follow, isn't it too much trouble for yourself?" ”

"Don't underestimate yourself." Xia Mengyao said: "We invited you to come with us, of course, because you can help us. ”

"Where can I help you?"

Liu Xuyang stood up and said, "Okay, it's late, everyone rests." Then leave Xia Mengyao in his room and tell me and Mi Junfei to go out first.

After leaving the room, Mi Junfei closed the door with his hand, put his ear on the door and eavesdropped. Mi Junfei shushed at me, and continued to listen with his ears sideways, I said that this door is closed, you can still hear the sound of speech inside? He nodded, his expression becoming more and more solemn, not knowing what he had heard.

After two days of traveling, although I had been sitting in the car, I was still exhausted, so I yawned and went back to my room. I was about to lie down after taking a shower, there was a knock on the door outside, I opened the door, Mi Junfei got in like a mouse, and said nervously, "Boss, I feel that something is wrong." I asked him what was wrong, and he said softly: "I just heard Liu Xuyang say to Xia Mengyao that the people who followed us have not been dumped, he said that before going to the mausoleum, he must get rid of them, and he also said that this time he was going to find a map?" It's dangerous, and if you're not careful, you'll never get out. Liu Xuyang persuaded Xia Mengyao to lure away the people who followed us, and the three of us went to the mausoleum. ”

"And then?" I don't think there's anything wrong with that.

Mi Junfei frowned and continued: "Then, Xia Mengyao said that among some of the people behind us, there was a group of people who secretly helped us, and the reason why the Japanese Onmyoji didn't come to trouble us again was that those people cleared the obstacles for us. ”

"Why would they do that?"

Mi Junfei's eyes flashed, and he wondered: "I think it's strange, think about it, who else will the people who follow us besides come to grab the Yin Yang Knife?" ”

I said that what else can it be, it is nothing more than looking for a forbidden book on death.

Mi Junfei immediately said: "That's right, everyone is banning books for death, isn't that our mortal enemy?" Why do you still help us? ”
