Two days later, the three of them came to Ziyang Town, and under the leadership of several officers and soldiers, they walked through several barren mountains and forests and entered the village where the accident occurred.

It was getting late, and the sun was about to set in less than an hour.

Just on the path where the village could be seen in the distance, the officers and soldiers who led the way suddenly stopped and did not dare to go any further.

"What's the matter, aren't you going together?" Zhao Tianxing asked when he saw the officer and soldier cowering.

"Uh...... , three heroes, we don't know much about the things inside, and we can't help if we go, and it will hold you back. You see, if we are to set up camp near here, and watch over your horses, and if anything happens, we will be able to take care of you. An officer said.

"Yes, yes, yes. The other two officers and soldiers immediately responded.

"So be it. Zhao Tianxing didn't care.

The three of them separated from the officers and soldiers and walked towards the village.

Entering the village, the three found that all the doors of the houses were closed, and there was no one in the house. Ziyuan forcibly opened the door of a house, and the three of them walked inside, and found that the things inside were all placed very neatly, without a trace of a fight.

After investigating a few more rooms, the three of them still had no clue. But thinking that the people who came here before, whether it was doctors or officers and soldiers, had disappeared, the three of them felt that even if they didn't look for it, something would take the initiative to appear.

"Senior Brother Tianxing, what do you think could be something at work? Could there be evil spirits?" Zi Yuan asked.

"I don't dare to say anything else, but there are definitely no evil spirits. Thousands of years ago, since the appearance of death, there have been no souls in the world. ”

"But what if?"

"How can there be so many in case, you look carefully again, don't miss any clues. ”

"Yes. Ziyuan replied in disappointment.

At this time, Namu pointed to a mirror on the wall and said, "Come and see the mirrors hanging on the wall outside these houses." ”

"Mirror, the one used to ward off evil spirits?" Zi Yuan.

"The houses in the village are scattered and oriented in different directions, but the mirrors hanging outside them all point in one direction. Nano explained.

Zi Yuan and Zhao Tianxing looked at each other, and sure enough, as the name said, these mirrors were all facing an isolated mountain range in the northeast.

The three of them looked in the direction of the mirror and saw that there was a dense forest there, and even if the leaves had not yet grown, it was difficult to see the situation in the mountains.

At this time, the sky gradually darkened, and the cold wind blew the thick clouds in the sky and flowed rapidly, as if they did not want to stay here for longer.

The three of them walked slowly along a path covered with dead grass towards the mountain.

Halfway through, suddenly a light came through the dense forest and lit up from the mountains. The three of them couldn't help but wonder and quickened their pace.

Through the dense forest, the three of them came to a slightly wider mountainside, where an ordinary wooden house was built, and from which the lights shone out.

When they got closer, the three were surprised to find that there were more than a dozen coffins parked in front of the house, and an oil lamp was burning on each coffin. Fortunately, the surrounding dense forest sheltered the wind, and only the faint breeze swayed the lights.

Zhao Tianxing opened a few coffins and found that they were full of corpses of officers and soldiers.

"What the hell is going on?" Zi Yuan couldn't help but start to be a little scared.

"Just go in and have a look. Na Wu said, pushing open the door of the house.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw a white figure flashing by, fleeing towards the house.

"Stop!" Zhao Tianxing shouted and immediately chased after him.

Before he could stop it, Zhao Tianxing's figure had already disappeared.

Ziyuan also wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Mingwu.

"Slow! There seems to be a problem here. Name-no-reminding.

"What's wrong?"

"I don't know if you have noticed, there is a faint fishy smell of the oil lamp burning outside?"

Ziyuan poked out his nose and sniffed it carefully, then suddenly covered his nose and said, "Indeed! I can't smell it if I don't smell it carefully, it's really fishy!"

"It's the smell of the corpse. After the death of northern animals, the corpse is difficult to decompose, and after a long time, this grass will generally grow in its body, suck the nutrients of the corpse, and eventually decompose it. If the herb is dried, it will smell a faint fishy smell after burning. And this smoke preserves the corpse well and prevents it from decomposing quickly. However, this smoke can also act as a hallucinogenic at some point. ”

"Hallucinogenic?"

Namu pointed to the three pillars of incense burning in the room, and said, "If you inhale the evening incense at the same time, it will make people hallucinate." ”

Ziyuan realized that something was wrong and wanted to leave here, but it was too late. Suddenly, bits and pieces of ridicule sounded from all around, and Zi Yuan saw many familiar faces suddenly appear and surrounded him, and he turned into the same as when he was a child.

"Ziyuan, give up, you can't do anything. "Don't struggle, no matter how hard you try, you won't be able to surpass him." "You can't become a swordsman. "You are a disgrace to our Ye family. ”

......

Na Mumi Ziyuan squatted on the ground alone, covering his ears, and cried like a child while shouting "no". Mingwu understood that Zi Yuan had already entered the illusion realm, so he immediately pulled Zi Yuan and ran outside the house.

The two of them ran into the woods, and suddenly the figure of a young man stood in front of them, it was the cobbler who had come here a few days ago.

At this moment, the shoemaker had a hideous smile on his face, looked at Zi Yuan, who had entered the illusion realm, and said, "You weren't even fascinated?

"Who are you?" asked Nano.

"Hahaha, what if you know? Everyone who has been here is dead. Do you think you can get out of here?"

As he spoke, he saw a yellow light condensed in the shoemaker's right hand, which became longer and longer, and finally turned into the shape of a long sword and fixed it.

"Sword Master!?" Mingwu remembered that Zhao Tianxing had used this trick.

"Swordsman, haha, that's just a name unique to Edgeworth. ”

I saw the shoemaker rushing towards Nano, wielding the air sword in his hand and slashing at a very fast speed. Mingwu pushed Ziyuan aside and pulled out Nameless to block the slash of the air sword.

However, Namu clearly felt that the power of this slash was ten times heavier than an ordinary sword, so much so that after Namu received the slash, his body took three steps back.

The cobbler didn't expect Na to take the slash, and he couldn't help but be slightly surprised when he saw the invisible blade in his hand.

"Interesting," the cobbler took a few steps back and distanced himself slightly from Nano, before quickly swinging his air sword at Nano.

The three sword qi flew towards Na Wu almost at the same time, and Na Wu dodged two of them, and split the third sword qi with Nameless. The four sword qi continued to fly towards Ming Wu's back, cutting off more than a dozen innocent trees in an instant.

With the sound of the tree falling, Nano's body turned into a shadow, and in an instant, he appeared in front of the shoemaker, and the long knife slashed straight at him.

The cobbler was taken aback and had no time to dodge. Seeing that the long knife of Ming Wu fell, he saw that the qi sword in his hand suddenly disappeared, and then, a wall of qi condensed in front of him in an instant.

The long knife slashed against the wall of air, just like an ordinary long knife slashing on a rock, making a crisp sound.

The cobbler thought that he had blocked Nano's slash, but he didn't expect that the air wall would be torn open. The long knife passed through the wall of qi and continued to slash at it, and the cobbler hurriedly dodged, but fortunately, the speed of the slash had been reduced a lot, and the shoemaker only had a cut on his face, and blood flowed out. The shoemaker covered his wounds and fled in terror.

Na Wuben wanted to chase after him, but remembered that Ziyuan was still here, so he gave up.

At this time, Ziyuan also woke up and found that he had left the room, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "What happened?"

"You've fallen for illusion, and I've brought you here. ”

"What about Senior Brother Tianxing? If he goes in, he will also fall for illusion. ”

"Don't worry. The troublemakers have just been beaten away by me. We'll go to him now. ”

......

On the other side, Zhao Tianxing followed the man in white to a clearing at the back of the house. Suddenly, a familiar man appeared in front of Zhao Tianxing. Zhao Tianxing was stunned for a moment, then a look of anger appeared on his face, and he gritted his teeth and said, "It's you, Lin Yuanlun!"

"Yo, Tianxing apprentice, I haven't seen you for three years, I didn't expect you to become a quasi-sword master of the Imperial Sword Ridge. ”

"Today, I'm going to avenge our Zhao family. ”

Zhao Tianxing pulled out his saber and rushed towards the man, waving his long sword almost frantically, countless sword qi glowing with yellow light shot out from Zhao Tianxing as the center, cutting the man's body into pieces in an instant.

However, soon in the other direction, a man with the same appearance reappeared. The man smiled and said, "Didn't I already be killed by you?" just three years ago. ”

"You're lying!" Zhao Tianxing brandished his long sword again, cutting the man's body in half.

"Are you good at deceiving yourself like this? Didn't your parents, your sister, and your family all die under your knife?"

"Liar, liar, you killed our whole family!" Zhao Tianxing chased after the man again......

The cold moonlight shone through the cracks in the clouds and poured down onto the earth. Just where Zhao Tianxing was, the man in white stopped before, but it was not white clothes at all, but a white bandage wrapped around his burly body.

He stared at Zhao Tianxing, who was talking to himself and wielding a long sword like a madman, holding a big knife wrapped in a white cloth on his back in his hand, and seeing an excellent opportunity, he raised the big knife in his hand high and slashed at Zhao Tianxing.

The white sword qi tore through the air and flew towards the defenseless Zhao Tianxing, and as the sword qi slashed across Zhao Tianxing's body, the corners of the bandaged man's mouth raised a slight smile......
