Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Demon in the Painting
According to her and Xu Huaizhang's perception when they first entered the wine shop, the demonic aura came from a layer, and now they can be sure that what they perceived at that time belonged to Zhegui's demonic qi.
In other words, before the shopkeeper applied for Li Hua out, he and Zhegui were in the warm pavilion on the first floor.
In such a short period of time, Zhegui can run to the second floor to poison them unnoticed?
Lan Yin knew that the fox demon clan had a technique that allowed her to be invisible or possess foreign objects while holding her demonic energy, but it was a high-level demon technique, and she felt that it should not be possible to learn it with the demonic power of Zhegui.
She now suspected that there were other fox demons here, and the way to confirm this conjecture was to see how strong the poison in the wine was, if the strength of the poison far exceeded the demon power of Zhegui, then there was a problem.
The silver hairpin can test whether it is poisonous, but it cannot test the intensity of the toxicity. Now if you want to test the toxicity, there is only one way.
Lan Yin lifted one of the glasses of wine and drank half of it immediately. Xu Huaizhang, Li Huashen, and Zhegui, who were present, all looked at her in surprise as if they had been struck by lightning. Her expression didn't fluctuate, just quietly felt the burning and pain in her chest, and after a moment, she vomited a mouthful of blood.
Lan Yin wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and tossed the wine cup aside.
"You didn't give this poison at all. She said to Zhegui, "The poison is so strong that you can't refine it with your demonic power." β
Zhegui didn't answer immediately, it was obvious that she was still shocked by Lan Yin's ability to test the poison method by injuring the enemy by injuring one thousand and self-inflicting eight hundred.
Lan Yin had also shifted his target away from Zhegui.
"There's another demon here. After saying this, Lan Yin's eyes were clouded with a little killing intent, "If you don't show up again, even if I destroy this entire wine shop, I will find you out." β
As soon as Lan Yin's words fell, a woman's chuckle suddenly sounded in the side room. This voice does not belong to Lan Yin or Zhegui, but to a person who walked down from the landscape mural by the wall.
"The immortal's eyebrows are like distant mountains, his eyes are like autumn water, he is so delicate and good-looking, how can he do things and talk so fiercely? β
She said this with a smile, but the demonic power and bloody aura that burst out of her body had filled the entire wine shop.
Lan Yin and Xu Huaizhang were immediately sure that she must be the rumored fox demon, and took 10,000 steps back and said, even if she wasn't, she must have lost countless lives on her hands, and they would have to kill her.
Before they could make a move, Zhegui rushed to the woman, frowning and asking her, "Why did you come out?"
Then, she knelt down towards Lan Yin and Xu Huaizhang.
"This is the youngest sister in the family, named Zhe Gui. She ......"
"She's not like you. Lan Yin interrupted Zhegui's defense and opened his mouth indifferently, "She's killed a lot of peopleβI'm not asking you, I'm sure she's killed a lot of people." So now, I'm going to kill her. β
Zhegui trembled as violently as she did when she first appeared in front of Lan Yin and them, and she even rushed forward to pull Lan Yin's hand, but Lan Yin dodged her.
After dodging Zhegui, Lan Yin took out the streamer and hit Zhegui, Zhegui also used his demonic power to catch it, the strength of the two collided, and the wall of the wing room was slightly cracked.
After two or three fights, Zhi Gui knew that she was not Lan Yin's opponent, not to mention that there was a Xu Huaizhang with an equally powerful immortal power standing beside her.
Zhe Gui was not stupid, and immediately gave up and drilled into the painting.
This painting is not an ordinary external object that she chooses to possess, but her magic weapon, which she can change the shape of the painting, so that the painting can only accommodate her alone, or can suck everyone present into the painting.
After she jumped into the painting, she locked up the rest of the people.
After the mortal Li Huashen fell into the painting, he immediately vomited blood with a pale face, and he was only able to stabilize him for the time being.
Lan Yin and Xu Huaizhang continued to fight with Orizu, but this was in Orizu's painting after all, and although she still couldn't beat them, she moved extremely fast here, and she had an advantage in this regard.
In the blink of an eye, Zhegui moved to Zhegui and Li Huashen's side. She snatched Li Huashen from Zhegui and pinched him around his neck with her hand.
"If you come nearr, I will kill him. β
Without waiting for Lan Yin and Xu Huaizhang to react, Zhegui cried and asked her, "What do you want?" Sister, what do you want to do?"
"What do I want to do? Zhe Gui said and tightened the strength of his hand again, "Who told me that if you leave the clan, you will cultivate hard, who told me that you want to travel the four seas together? Why did you lie to me? Why did you marry a mortal?!"
Taking advantage of the confrontation between the two sisters, Lan Yin quietly summoned a droplet-shaped dart to ambush behind Orizuki, preparing to find the right moment to kill her with one blow.
"That's because you've gone astray. Zhegui was still crying, but his voice had gradually weakened, and it no longer seemed like crying, "It's the fact that you are not satisfied with the fact that our demonic power is weak, and you start killing people......"
"Demons are meant to kill! We are enemies with mortals!"
After shouting this, Zhe Gui seemed to want to say something, but he was hit by Lan Yin's water droplets.
Feeling the pain, she was not more angry or unwilling, but suddenly smiled.
She let go of the hand holding Li Huashen, and used her other hand to contain an extremely strong demonic power, "Sister, even if I die, I want to take this mortal you love the most with me!"
As she spoke, she was going to use her last strength to kill Li Huashen. At this moment, Zhegui's reaction was so fast that before Lan Yin and Xu Huaizhang could use their immortal power to block Zhegui's attack, she had already rushed forward and blocked the blow with her body.
In an instant, the world in the painting lost its color and dissipated little by little.
Zhe Gui was still smiling, she was smiling at the last moment before she disappeared, but there was less rampant in the laughter, more sadness.
The dying Zhegui and Lan Yin fell out of the broken painting together, and Li Huashen hugged her in his arms in embarrassment, whimpering and crying.
"Why are you blocking it?" Lan Yin asked as he took Zhegui's hand, trying to probe her pulse to see if she was still saved. Unfortunately, she will definitely die. "I can use immortal power or sword to block it, why do you block it?!" she couldn't help but ask again with an angry temperament.
Zhegui smiled faintly, "Because I deserve to die too." β
Lan Yin looked at Zhegui in disbelief, but Zhegui still smiled indifferently. "Because I know that I have hurt so many people, but I still want to protect her. Immortals, do you think I'm innocent? I deserve to die. β
After speaking, Zhegui's gaze moved from Lan Yin to Li Huashen. She raised her hand to touch his face with the last of her strength and said to him, "Cherish yourself." β
These were the last words she had left in the world.
The words dispersed, and her soul was scattered, leaving only Li Huashen's undisguised collapse cry.
Lan Yin looked at Li Huashen quietly, and said two words to himself, "Stupid." β
I don't know who she's talking about.
Xu Huaizhang turned his eyes to look at Lan Yin, but he clearly saw a flash of sadness in her eyes.
