Chapter 260: Praying Mantis Catches Cicadas

Ji Que returned to his hometown, and he didn't feel the beauty of nostalgia that he hadn't seen for a long time, because although the grass and trees he was once familiar with were still there, except for the Tang Yi around him, everything had changed.

Li Sankai's brother and sister have a fate with him, the last time they were on a trip together, the three of them talked and laughed, and experienced a wonderful and thrilling night in the ancient temple.

And now he stood before them, and they were so hungry and skinny that they had lost their former sparkle.

The old folks he used to be familiar with, such as Boss Zhang who sold tofu brains on the other side of the alley, the young lady who was unclothed in winter on the next street, and his classmates and gentlemen in the academy, are now walking and moving, and the rest have become this kind of monster that is neither human nor ghostly.

I don't know if the old gentleman who was angry with him and Tang Yi ran out in time.

However, Ji Que couldn't help but ask a question - "Why are you three hiding here?" ”。

Li Sankai said: "On your side, those ghosts don't dare to come in. ”

Ji Que was surprised: "Ah, can I and Tang Yiren be able to exorcise evil spirits when we are not there?" ”

As a result, at this time, Tang Yi went to the house, took out a kitchen knife, and said, "They are afraid of the knives left by me." ”

The knife looked very old, with ash sticking to it, and it didn't look very useful, but I saw Tang Yi shake it, and the ashes fell to the ground, revealing the blade.

The blade was obviously pitch black, but it gave people the feeling of being covered with blood.

Ji Que couldn't help but think of something.

At this time, Tang Yi came over and said, "All the people in the city are on the road, what do you want to do?" ”

Ji Que pondered: "When I was upside down with that ghost child just now, I always felt that there was something else in his body, but it was too tightly glued to his body, if it was loosened a little, maybe it would be saved." ”

Tang Yi frowned and said, "So?"

Ji Que replied: "I used to use pigs to practice spoons, and I always felt that the cost was high, but now it's okay, and I don't need to spend money." ”

Before Ji Que and Tang Yi returned to the old mansion, it was a group of people who were neither human nor ghost who surrounded the house, but on this day, when Ji Que pushed the mansion away, it became Ji Que who surrounded the people of the entire city alone.

At first, the people were affected by the extra shadow on their bodies, and they pounced desperately.

The momentum of these people is not unrelenting, some are as fast as a flying boat, some are like predatory cheetahs, and some even use a sliding shovel that is not used by ordinary people......

But their endings are the same, they fell down Ji Que's side, and then flew into the sky inexplicably, constantly going up and down, and couldn't fall again.

It's like a chef is flipping a spoon.

So in the eyes of Li Sankai and the others, Ji Que often turned a dozen people in the air alone.

The faces of those people were either lustful to death, weeping with joy, laughing wildly, or secretly ecstasy, crying, and tearful.

In the middle, those shadows stuck to the people's bodies as if they were entities, but after being turned upside down by Ji Que, they began to fall off one after another, like pieces of mud.

When those black shadows were reversed, the people couldn't help but return to normal.

"Where is this?"

"What's wrong with me?"

After the explanations of Li Sankai and others, the people of Sangshui County gradually understood everything.

After all, many years ago, when the Wind Lotus Sect was wreaking havoc here, some of them had encountered a similar situation of losing their memories.

Because Ji Que's spoon was too effective, the situation changed all of a sudden.

At first, when he went out, the people who were bound by the shadows rushed to prey on him, and then he appeared cautious, and pounced from time to time, and now, he is running after those people.

Especially when he chased him out in a land swimming position, it can be said that there was a burst of chickens and dogs.

Don't say it, this time, a dog bound by a shadow was thrown into the air, and its body made a snapping sound, as if it had been subjected to a stir-fry again.

If it weren't for Ji Que knowing that this was Boss Zhang's dog who sold tofu brains, he would have almost fried the other party as lunch.

During this period, Ji Quan's "ancient cooking method" has been perfectly displayed.

When he was at his best, more than 20 people were smashed by him and couldn't fall into the air.

In the eyes of Li Sankai, Li Mei and Widow Zhao, Ji Que had a faint trembling power all over his body, and his whole person was like a fire.

They even have an illusion that if Ji Que works harder, I'm afraid his hair will be ignited.

Sangshui County, which had become lifeless because of this change, gradually regained its vitality, at least the streets near Ji Que's old house were revitalized.

At the request of Ji Que, Boss Zhang, who lived for the rest of his life after the catastrophe, began to sell tofu brains before he recovered from his panic.

While he was cooking tofu brains, he felt bizarre.

My life is almost gone, but I'm still cooking tofu brains, am I born with hard work?

However, seeing the two good-looking faces of Ji Que and Tang Yi, he was a little dazed for a while, as if he had returned to a few years ago.

On this day, Boss Zhang couldn't help it after all, and asked, "Are you Tang Yi's sister or sister?" ”

Tang Yi ate salty tofu and said, "I can't pretend to be a man?" ”

Boss Zhang wanted to say something, but he didn't say it after all.

"How is that possible? Previously you were so flat! ”

This is Boss Zhang's heartfelt words.

Every time he sees Tang Yi and Ji Que, two scholars, Boss Zhang has a sense of intimacy when he sees his nephews and nieces.

Even now.

The most proud thing in Boss Zhang's life is that he can support his family with this craft.

This kind of pride is especially obvious in front of Ji Que and Tang Yi, the two old customers.

Of course, he is not in awe of Ji Que, who already has immortal means and can treat more than ten or twenty people as vegetables at a time, but after the rest of his life, he has a calmness.

He had indeed reached the age of knowing his destiny.

And ordinary people know their destiny, that is, they can calmly accept their ordinariness and one or two shining points.

"Damn, it's just too easy to get into trouble."

It's just that every time in the dead of night, Boss Zhang looked at his sleeping little daughter and still couldn't help but say.

In this kind of words, there is naturally anger.

This world is still too unfair to ordinary people like them.

Sometimes, he felt that they were like grass growing in the field, and wherever the wind blew, it would fall down, and one day it would be pulled out and thrown on the ridge of the field to rot.

The Wind Lotus Sect a few years ago, this time it was a strange thing, if it weren't for Ji Quan, it would be impossible for their family of four to survive so completely.

However, as the pillar of the family, this experience of relying on luck to survive still makes him very uncomfortable.

In the past few days, Ji Que is still chasing people.

The gray mist was like a hedge, enclosing the shadow-controlled people.

In fact, Ji Que also has similar anger to Boss Zhang.

Although he is very powerful now, even in the cultivation world, he has a lot of noise, and he can be said to be a big man.

But he still lives the life of a small person.

He could understand the bitterness of countless people who were similar to Boss Zhang, because he had lived a similar life for a long time before leaving Sangshui County.

You used to live a good life, but there was a great aunt who came to rob your real estate, and even did not hesitate to become a monster, you lived well, eating tofu brains and wanted to take a show, but there was a Wind Lotus Sect that kept trying to take you away......

I finally went back to my hometown once, but what I saw was a bleak picture of things and people.

Yes, these neighbors are not as lucky as Boss Zhang's family, he saved many people by turning the spoon, but some of them are too serious to be saved after all.

He still goes to the alley every morning to eat a bowl of sweet tofu brain, just like a few years ago.

But some things are different after all.

Sangshui County, which has seen a lot fewer people, is even more deserted and decadent than before.

"Grass you mother! Grass you fuck dog mongrel! ”

"Lao Tzu's hometown, you can do it too!"

Ji Que felt the anger in his heart, and turned thirty people upside down at a time.

The shadows floated in the air, screaming in a terrible or angry way, and eventually fell to the ground and turned to ashes.

And just when Ji Que was frantically flipping the spoon to save people, and even the air became distorted because of the scorching heat, in a shadow in the heights, there were two black-robed people quietly watching this scene.

Their entire bodies and faces were shrouded in black robes, and not even a single skin was exposed, but it gave people a sense of gloom that was richer than darkness

"Isn't it time for us to hunt?" The tall, black-robed man spoke.

"The altar owner has made a trapping plan, but are you sure that you can catch this cicada?" The short, black-robed man asked rhetorically.

The tall man fell silent for a moment and said, "No, this cicada is a bit unexpected to me. ”

The short man responded: "Not only this cicada, but also the one that is too lazy to move, it still feels dangerous to me."

If it's only this one that loves to move, we're still a little sure, but with the one that doesn't move, I don't want to try it at all. ”

"But the altar master's orders cannot be easily disobeyed."

At this point, the two black-robed men fell silent.

In the organization of the Foreign Bodies Society, it is a terrible thing to disobey orders from above.

The short, black-robed man replied, "The altar master is not a stubborn stone, he knows our difficulties, and will definitely continue to call people." ”

These days, they are always waiting for an opportunity.

Because according to their speculation, Ji Que's bizarre method similar to turning a spoon should consume the true yuan very much, and it will only get weaker and weaker.

But they were wrong, instead of getting weaker and weaker, Ji Que became more and more rebellious.

It seems that as long as he continues to go upside down, as long as he drinks the northwest wind, he can recover his strength.

Especially the other party's routine that drinking a bowl of sweet tofu every morning can turn it up until dark, which always gives them a terrifying feeling.

It was as if there were already troops charging on the street, and corpses were everywhere, and he still went to the fixed house every day to listen to the music, which was very regular.

As members of the Foreign Bodies Society, the two black-robed people had not had such a strange sense of terror for a long time, which was why they had been waiting, but they had not waited for the opportunity to prey after all.

The plan to rely on these people to consume the season's lack of physical strength has failed, and they can only continue to lurk.

It can only be said that this son is terrifying, and there is a woman behind him who can't see the depths clearly.

They had sensed the bitter smell of blood in the room, as if a terrible butcher lived there, so that the shadow-controlled people did not dare to approach it.

They searched but couldn't find the aura, until the beautiful young woman pulled out the knife.

"What do you say is the origin of that knife, there are very few such introverted and presumptuous knives in this world." The tall black-robed man couldn't help but say.

The wind cut that cuts off the edge of the world is not this kind of taste, and Ning Hongyu's magic knife has not yet become a fire.

The short man shook his head and said, "Maybe it's a master we haven't been walking in the world for too long and don't know about it?" ”

"You must know that there are not many people in this world who can live longer than us, including those masters."

When he said this, the tone of the short black-robed man revealed a taste of seeing the vicissitudes of the world.

At this time, a nice woman's voice sounded - "Are you talking about this knife?" ”。

As soon as these words came out, the two black-robed people looked around as if they were facing a great enemy for a while, forming horns with each other.

They are already hiding in the dark, and they are very good at hiding in the dark, but they don't know where the other party is hiding for a while.

And even more fearful is that they can already feel the sinister breath.

The pitch-black knife that doesn't show any edge, but has a presumptuous evil aura is nearby!

"I can tell you clearly that this knife is older than you don't die."

The woman's voice was still drifting far and near, and there was a horror flavor in this dark attic.

For a moment, the two black-robed men didn't know whether they were afraid of the knife or this person.

Involuntarily, the two black-robed men leaned back.

Before, the darkness gave them enough security, like a baby's swaddling clothes, and made them very comfortable.

But all at once they found the man in the darkness, and the darkness was like a needle, a thorn, full of danger.

As if instinctively, they approached a wall.

Any movement of the wall can alert them, while also blocking out danger in one direction and making them feel safe.

And just as the tall black-robed man approached the wall, a piece of darkness moved, very inconspicuous.

If you look closely, you'll see that it's a knife.

A pitch-black knife without any edge.

It moved slowly, without making a single movement, but it finally landed near the waist of the tall black-robed man.

The next moment, the dull blade of the knife slashed, and an extremely miserable cry suddenly sounded.

The tall man's black robe fell to the ground, and he saw a dwarf-like man clutching his neck, with an expression of disbelief in his eyes.

He has been shrouded in a tall black robe for almost his entire life, and in addition to hiding his low self-esteem, he can also confuse his opponents.

There are only a few people in this world who know this secret, and even the companions around them don't know it.

This is also the reason why he can easily kill enemies countless times.

He even had the illusion that as long as this black robe did not fall to the ground, he would always be invincible.

But today, a knife hidden in the darkness seemed to have seen through his disguise and accurately cut his neck.

Seeing this, his companion was about to rush to the side, but only to hear a thud, a fist through the wall, and a clasp around his neck.

Immediately after, a man's voice sounded - "Found you." ”。
