Chapter 3 • The Game of Life and Death

"It's such a heavy demonic energy, I'm afraid the demon we're looking for is inside. Speaking of which, do you ever feel like the fog is getting bigger and bigger here? Song Qingyin said, wanting to reach out to touch Lu Qichuan who was standing beside her, but when she stretched out her hand, she grabbed it empty, but she soon found that not only Lu Qichuan, but even the souls that had been wandering the street were gone.

Song Qingyin: What about people??

……

Lu Qichuan stood in place and didn't move, he was careless just now, otherwise he wouldn't have seen someone appear from behind the dead girl and take her away, the other party picked the right time to start, obviously he knew them very well, the purpose can be imagined, it can only be for the 'treasure'.

The place he was in was not much different from just now, but the people in front of him and the demonic energy that lingered around him had dissipated cleanly, only the ethereal sound of bamboo was faintly heard in the palace, and the sound was soft and gentle with the comfortable atmosphere that people yearned for. Lu Qichuan didn't have the heart to listen to how moving this rhythm was, a gray mist gathered in his palm, something was wrapped in the mist, but a vague shadow could not be seen clearly, and he stared vigilantly in the direction where the sound came.

The sound of gonghou stopped for a moment, and then it sounded low again. The door of the palace pavilion suddenly opened, and the people inside shook a feather fan, and most of their faces were covered by a ghost face, revealing only red lips and a little white skin.

"I didn't believe it when I heard others say that your spirit was reunited, but I didn't expect to see the deity so soon." After that, he smiled, and shook the feather fan in his hand again, "I'm afraid you don't remember me at all, so I'll reintroduce it." In Xia Lanyi, the former Demon Monarch Hall Wind and Fire Elder. ”

His words revealed such an arrogant and unbeaten atmosphere, 'I know a lot of your secrets, come and ask me', but Lu Qichuan was indifferent, "But I remember, Lan Yi, the Wind and Fire Elder of the Demon Monarch Palace, should be imprisoned in the Demon Suppression Tower of Qingyun Mountain at this moment." ”

Lan Yi nodded hurriedly, "Yes, it should be, but didn't I escape." ”

Lu Qichuan suddenly took back the spiritual power gathered in his hand, and the aura around him stabilized, and they looked at each other from a distance not too close. The surroundings were quiet and terrible, and the two of them secretly played tricks, but they couldn't see anything on the surface.

The air froze for a moment, but the other party opened his mouth first. Lan Yi slapped the feather fan in his hand twice meaninglessly, shook his head and said, "Hey, I've seen through." So saying, he came forward.

"It's just a puppet, your body isn't here." Lu Qichuan said, his eyes had been paying attention to Lan Yi's movements. The demon elder spread his hands innocently, saying that he really didn't want to do anything, and even if he wanted to do anything, he couldn't beat you.

Lan Yi: I'm just a weak puppet.

He approached Lu Qichuan to see what this person who called himself the elder of the demon clan really looked like. He came across as young, but lifeless, revealing a few strands of disobedient hair behind his mask, and his jet-black strands were interspersed with imperceptible gray.

"I don't want to fight you, you obviously don't know who you are, so let's make a deal." Lan Yi took off the ghost face on his face, it was a delicate and handsome face, with a hint of demonism, but the eyes that should have added a lot of color to this face were only a layer of white shadow, which made him look a little terrifying.

"I can tell you everything about you, and I can find a way to complete your soul."

"What about the conditions?" Lu Qichuan's voice was calm, and he couldn't tell if he was moved.

Lan Yi said, "That little girl has to stay." ”

Song Qingyin's mind was spinning, and he felt like he had been hit on the head with something. She rubbed her eyes, the feeling of turbulence and weightlessness like vertigo still not dissipated, and she rubbed her eyes again, shaking her head before she realized that she was being carried on her back.

The person carrying him on his back seemed to be a little familiar, but in a trance, he felt that this person should not be here at the moment.

Sensing that she was awake, the man turned around and smiled at him, "Jiujiu, why are you asleep again?" ”

Why are ——— falling asleep again? It's so cold on the ground, why don't you go inside?

———It's not that Senior Brother and Sister don't like you, it's just that ...... Forget it, let's go with Master.

Did ——— teach you how to draw the spirit runes I taught you yesterday? Master is going into retreat soon, you have to learn faster.

——— you have to work harder than others to protect yourself later.

———……

"Master?!" She hurriedly got off the person's back, there was no way, the master was always wearing his pale green shirt, which looked like a weak dog's tail grass, which would break when the wind blew, let alone such a big person pressing on him.

"Haha, Jiujiu is good, this place is very dangerous, follow the master, your senior brothers and sisters are in front." Song Qiuyan had the usual squinting smile on his face, rubbed his waist a little pitifully, and reached out to pull her.

Song Qingyin subconsciously avoided his hand, pretended to be nothing, patted the soil on his body and asked suspiciously, "Master, why are you here...... Speaking of which, have you ever seen Lu Qichuan? ”

Song Qiuyan walked in front, lowered his head and seemed to think seriously, "I didn't see it, not long after you left, Qingya sent a message back and said that there are a large number of monsters here, your senior brother, they are worried that you will encounter accidents, so please let me go out in advance to take a look." ”

Song Qingyin nodded and grinned at him, "That's it, then thank you Senior Brother!" She slowly distanced herself from the person in front of her, and followed step by step, her mouth did not stop, and she was not looking for words, but she was usually a person who talked a lot, and Song Qiuyan didn't hear anything wrong.

Not long after walking, that is, after a flash of effort, the two of them had already arrived in front of the gorgeous pavilion, and the sound of the gong hou was so gentle that people couldn't help but wonder what kind of person the musician was playing.

"The demons here have been cleaned up, and they are waiting for us behind here." Song Qiuyan pushed open the door, and the palace pavilion was really beautiful like a fairyland, if there was no smoke lingering, and the cold incense was faintly floating in the air, "Jiujiu, what's wrong?" Why don't you come in? ”

Song Qingyin stood three steps away from the threshold with his hands behind his back and looked down at his shoes, "Master, senior brother is so powerful, you cleaned up the demon clan so quickly." ”

Song Qiuyan smiled: "Otherwise, how can it be your master?" Come in, it's going to rain outside. As he spoke, he was about to reach out to pull her again, but he was naturally dodged again. He also felt that he seemed to be a little anxious, so he withdrew his hand curtly, "Jiujiu, what's wrong?" ”

"Actually, I'm a little curious about what's in there."

Song Qiuyan's face changed when he heard this, but he still barely maintained a gentle smile on his face, "Jiujiu, what are you talking about?" ”

"But after the transformation, you can make others confuse your own demonic energy with the spiritual power of a high-level monk, it must be a very powerful demon, I'm afraid I won't be able to beat you, so I better not go in!" Song Qingyin cautiously took a few steps back, revealing two little tiger teeth and smiling at him, but she herself may not know that her current expression is very similar to Lu Qichuan.

"It's a little interesting," 'Song Qiuyan's spiritual power around her body was gradually covered by black demonic energy, and when she spoke again, the person standing in front of her was already a demon with a ghost face, "Little girl, how can you see it?" ”

Song Qingyin's hands were still behind his back, "Actually, you are really powerful!" She first affirmed the other party's ability, "It's just that there are four things that are wrong. ”

Lan Yi said he would like to hear more about it.

"First of all, the name Chunjiujiu, Master would never call it. Second, when Master talks to others, he always looks them in the eyes very seriously. Third, Master did not know about the existence of Lu Qichuan. Ah, but if you explain these three points to Master, it will make sense that he secretly checked it later or didn't pay attention to it for a while," Song Qingyin's expression on his face stiffened slightly, "But the most important point, my senior brothers and sisters...... Even if they were here, they wouldn't be worried about me. So I think that the master you play is shaped after reading my memories. ”

Lan Yi thought thoughtfully, "It seems that you also have a lot of stories. ”

"I can't say it, but I think the one who plays the gonghou in it must be a beautiful sister." She stepped back a little more, her hands behind her back pressed against the tree.

"It's beautiful, don't you want to see it?" Lan Yi made an inviting gesture at her, and the sound of the gonghou in the room slowly stopped, and a clear voice came, "Tsubasa, are you back?" ”

Sounds good! Song Qingyin tilted his head slightly to look into the room, and then suddenly remembered that there was an enemy in front of him, and coughed lightly, "It's still not, I'm afraid that I won't come out after I see it." ”

"You little girl is really interesting, do you see those dead souls outside, I just want to take that thing from you, you will die in a sweet dream like them, it won't be painful." Speaking of this, he suddenly had an epiphany, "Amazing, almost caught the way of your little girl, you have been talking to me here for so long, could it be that you are dragging time and waiting for someone to save you?" ”

Song Qingyin nodded with a look of 'Oh, what should I do if you find out, I'm so scared', "Yes, I'm delaying time, but I'm not waiting for someone to save me!" Before the words fell, she threw out three spirit runes in her hands that had been behind her back and attacked directly at Lan Yi's face door, Lan Yi dodged back, jumped to the tree behind her and looked at her condescendingly, the spirit rune was open in the explosion-proof opening where he was standing, it did have a lot of power, but it was not enough in front of the demon elders.

"Little girl, if you can't touch me, it's useless to throw more spirit runes, don't waste your spiritual power."

Song Qingyin smiled sweetly at him, "It's useful!" ”

Immediately after, a fallen leaf fell in front of him, and something was stained on it, red. Soon, he knew what it was, it was blood, extending from the trunk of the tree into the veins of branches and leaves, Lan Yi was puzzled: "You are not Fu Xiu, you ......" Before he finished speaking, it was only a matter of a moment for the flames to spread, Lan Yi's expression suddenly became flustered, "Quickly put out the fire!" ”
