397 Mountain patrol

Midnight. The moonrise is small.

Shangqing Palace is not like Zixiao Palace, built in the clouds, the palaces are lined up one after another, looking magnificent and dreamy like a fairyland. Shangqing Palace is a mountain, or rather a mountain range.

Yanshan cliff.

The cliff of Yanshan is extremely high and dangerous, with hundreds of peaks in a row, and all of them are dangerous peaks, as if the sword array is straight into the clouds. At a glance, but see the high mountains and bare rocks, under the reflection of a crescent moon, it looks lonely and arrogant.

Yanshan Xiaoyue is a unique wonder of Shangqing Palace.

On the mountain wall, a group of Taoist priests walked in a row.

They are all in a green robe, black shoes and white socks, with swords on their backs, at first glance, they are like ordinary Taoist priests in the worldly Taoist temple, but if you look carefully, you will know that this group of ordinary Taoist priests are all real people.

A real person can already sit on one side and become an elder in Zixiao Palace, but here he can only patrol the mountains in the middle of the night. That's the gap.

A few people walked on the misty cliff, as if walking on the ground, but they were silent all the way. Only the click of shoes on the stone wall could be heard far away in the night. It stands to reason that everyone is a real person cultivator, and there shouldn't be such a voice, probably because they feel that patrolling the mountains at night is too lonely. Everyone has a rhythmic pace, just to break the deathly silence.

Suddenly, the silence was pierced by the sound of a sword. Although the sound was subtle, in the dark night, it exploded like thunder.

With a bang, ten swords were unsheathed together. The figures of the Taoist priests melted into the night and silently rushed in that direction.

It's closer.

In the night, I saw a flash of sword light on the cliff. It was dazzling in the night, but in an instant, it was gone. There was a burst of light in front of the leading Taoist priest, and a talisman rose, like a small sun rising, illuminating the valley.

At the same time, he exclaimed, "Who?"

Under the light, a group of Taoist priests who were also wearing green robes walked out, holding bright long swords in their hands, and their steps were neat. Apparently a Taoist priest patrolling the mountains on another line.

The Taoist priest here looked relaxed, looked carefully at the appearance of the other party's leader, and recognized it as a fellow disciple of Yang Feng, who seemed to be surnamed Zhao, and said, "Senior Brother Zhao, what did you find?

Daoist Zhao said: "It turned out to be Senior Brother Li." I just saw a lonely Taoist priest and interrogated him, he was a disciple of Senior Brother Yu, not an enemy. ”

Li Daoshi said: "Killed?"

Daoist Zhao hesitated. "I let him go." ”

Daoist Li's face sank, and he said, "Why don't you kill it?" Today, all the Taoist priests who are alone under the real person, whether they have identity or no identity, know or don't know, will be killed. Why don't you obey?"

Daoist Zhao said: "I think he is really a person in our palace, not a ......."

Daoist Li interrupted: "That shouldn't be. The oracle made it clear that the newly infiltrated thief was the henchman of the criminal, and he was quite familiar with the personnel of the Shangqing Palace. And he is proficient in the art of imitation, and he can pretend to be so vivid that he can find someone at random, and we can't see it at all. Therefore, it is better not to believe your own eyes, and it is better to kill directly. ”

Daoist Zhao hesitated for a moment and said, "Then I'll rush over now and kill him?"

Daoist Li snorted and said, "Okay." Where is he going?"

Daoist Zhao pointed back and said, "Over there." ”

Daoist Li shouted: "Follow me." The group followed him and disappeared into the night.

Daoist Zhao looked at his back, sneered, and said in a low voice: "You chase after him." ”

A Taoist priest next to him said, "Senior brother." That little Taoist priest has been killed by us just now, why did you say that you didn't kill it?"

Daoist Zhao said: "When we meet, Senior Brother Yu's disciple, can I tell others if I kill him?" In the future, Senior Brother Yu will inquire about it, although there is a decree from Senior Brother Yu, there is a suspicion in the end. Now he is chasing, and that is just right, although he is not destined to chase, but we can push this matter to him. When the time comes, let Senior Brother Yu and him go and ask for someone. ”

The Taoist priest said: "But Senior Brother Li can tell the truth, he didn't kill in the first place." ”

Daoist Zhao said: "Then it depends on who Senior Brother Yu believes." If it's you, between me and Li Jiangshan, who do you believe?"

The Taoist priest couldn't answer, and Daoist Zhao turned around and said, "You all remember, we didn't kill any of us tonight, and whoever asked said the same." ”

Li Jiangshan hurried on the road for a while, stopped, his eyes became clear and clear, and the moonlight was so dim that his face was already blurred.

It should be okay this time.

There are some tricks, but one can be two and can't be repeated.

Cheng Jun relied on a puppet to temporarily blind his innocent eyes and ears, but he also exposed his disguise and formation before exposing himself, and then playing the golden cicada shelling and mixing the eyes of the fish, it would not work. Not only is it dangerous, but after his death, he will only laugh at his poor skills when he is found innocent.

But it is too dangerous to give up this trick.

Relying on the art of retreat to walk in the Shangqing Palace, to avoid everyone's eyes and ears, that is, to take the Shangqing Palace too seriously. The Shangqing Palace has been in the palace for thousands of years, and I don't know how many powerful enemies and ill-intentioned assassins have been blocked, if a real person with a spirit world is allowed to come and go freely, it will already give people the opportunity to enter and collapse hundreds of times. Not to mention the layers of masters, even the protection of various mechanism formations is enough to make an outsider have no return.

And if you hide in a corner, quietly wait for the wind to pass and then try to make other plans, it is not impossible, and Cheng Jun is sure that he can deceive for a while, but that is too passive. This game is not delayed until a certain moment can be over, but ends with him leaving the Shangqing Palace - he said that he unlocked the formation, and then withdrew the guards and let him go, Cheng Jun didn't believe it at all. Unraveling the formation marked the complete end of his use value, and what awaited him at that time was not freedom, but a catastrophe.

If Cheng Jun solved the formation and was innocent, he really didn't kill him, it would definitely not be merciful, it must have been innocent and found that he had other use value. Then he will return to the track of using tricks until he drains his use value, until Cheng Jun has no value at all. will really end - with Cheng Jun's death.

So if you want to get out of the way, there is only one way, Cheng Jun left the Shangqing Palace safely, left Yanyun, and fled to a place where innocence is invisible, and there is no other way.

When they return to the north and return to Hanyu Mountain, Cheng Jun will let them know what it means to "not be successful." There is more than one thing to lose". He wanted to flip his hands and deal a major blow to these self-righteous masters, and also bring peace to the entire monastic world for a hundred years. At that time, it would be good to take care of yourself without guilt, and would you still have the time to take care of him?

Of course, this is all for later, and the most important thing now is to leave.

And if he wants to leave, he can't break openly, he can't sneak in, he has to get out.

It's still inseparable from the trick of mixing fish eyes.

Just a slight change to deal with the arrangement of innocence.

For example. Searching for Cheng Jun's law enforcement team is really a great opportunity. If you can blend in, turn from a thief to an official, and be able to take advantage of blind spots, it is naturally great. But since he could think of it, how could he not think of innocence? He would not give Cheng Jun this opportunity.

Everyone in this team has layers of identification methods, and they have made many marks of light and dark, and they affect their whole body, and any person is impersonated. will be immediately noticed, and it is impossible to leave a chance.

So he couldn't impersonate anyone, he had to impersonate everyone.

These Taoist priests around Cheng Jun are all puppets, and he swaggered out with a group of puppets to patrol the mountains.

This is also a blind spot, for these Taoist priests of the Shangqing Palace, they know to be wary of a person who appears in front of them. They will also be wary of someone changing in their own team, or even someone in someone else's team, but they will not be wary of a group of people, and they will not question the other team itself. Cheng Jun just walked over with someone. No one, not a single team, was suspicious.

Of course, he may not be unaware of innocence, but he is defenseless, just because he miscalculated Cheng Jun's strength.

In order to impersonate a squad, you must first destroy a squad and replace it, and second, you must have so many puppets and then be able to manipulate so many puppets at the same time.

Not to mention the elimination of the squad, each team has its own manpower, and it is also filed in the palace, one radish and one pit, if you can't destroy the entire team and replace it, how can you ensure that it is safe? And it is a fantasy to destroy dozens of real people with one real person silently.

On the other hand, of course he knew that Cheng Jun and Yao Shengtong were connected, but he also knew that Cheng Jun himself was not a puppeteer. Even if Cheng Jun is unpredictable or lucky, with so many puppets in his hands, he has to manipulate it. It is reasonable for an ordinary monk to manipulate one or two puppets, or to involve several marionettes whose cultivation is much worse than his own, but if a random person comes and can flexibly manipulate dozens or hundreds of puppets with the same cultivation as himself, then what is the point of a puppeteer practicing puppetry for so many years?

Cheng Jun really can't. But someone can.

For example, Yao Shengtong.

If Innocent knew that Cheng Jun was a puppet who had exchanged with Yao Shengtong with an unconfirmed message, he should have known that how could Yao Shengtong let Cheng Jun leave after hearing it?

Anyway, the formations everywhere are divided and replaced, all in one formation, one sheep is also driven, and two sheep are also released, of course Cheng Jun will take this woman with him.

With the help of such a puppet master, whether it is killing people or operating puppets, it will naturally get twice the result with half the effort. And it is precisely because she is still outside the sight of innocence that Cheng Jun has the strength to plot.

"It's been four watches, when can I go out?" a cold voice came from behind.

Cheng Jun didn't turn his head, and replied: "Shangqing Palace covers an area of thousands of miles, and it will take at least a few days for us to walk like this." ”

"Then hurry up. Yao Shengtong behind him also changed to transmission.

"Can't go. Cheng Jun replied, "We are so confusing that we can fool people at night and go to the street during the day, but it is too eye-catching, and we need to go out day and night." ”

Yao Shengtong snorted and said, "Where are we going to rest?"

Cheng Jun said: "I still have a friend here, I don't know if he will help me ......"

Suddenly, Cheng Jun's expression changed, his fingertips moved, and a firelight flew out and was extinguished in a flash.

Someone on the mountain wall whispered, and a woman in white turned out from behind the mountain and said, "Are you here? ”
