202: The Art of Killing
Lou Jinchen frowned.
He thought of the day he had come, and he felt the killing intent that was absent, but he couldn't find the enemy.
Hearing the merman's words again, the chill in his heart turned out to be even heavier, and suddenly a horror crept into his heart.
It's a feeling, like someone hearing something terrible, and their heart is touched, and they feel terrifying.
Lou Jinchen actually had this feeling at this moment, and the horror was like a fog.
When the merman was pondering in Lou Jinchen, she slowly slid into the water, her lower body was still a fish body, she turned over, the fish tail stood up, and she didn't enter the water.
Shang Gui'an was standing there with a three-color lantern, he also heard it, and then saw the merman leave, but the senior brother squatted there for a while.
Tonight, since that Fujun left, he felt that something was wrong with his senior brother.
"Senior brother!"
Lou Jinchen stood up and said, "It seems that someone is really going to kill me." ”
Shang Gui was very nervous, and the fire in the lantern in his hand was beating, representing his mood.
"Don't be nervous, there are so many people who want to kill your senior brother, but your senior brother is still alive and well, and it's not so easy to kill your senior brother."
Lou Jinchen turned around and walked towards the residence, and then when he came to the door, he suddenly stopped, and then walked towards the next door, he felt that the door next door had opened, and someone had entered.
When he came to the door next door, there was no sign on the ground or on the door, but he was sure that someone must have entered.
But he did not open the door, nor did he look at who it was, but he turned to leave, and returned to his dwelling, when he suddenly drew his sword and wrote on the pillars on either side of the door.
"Yesterday I felt a bad cold, and tonight I smelled a killing machine!"
The sword light flickered, and two lines of vertical characters appeared on the doorpost, the font was thin and hard, the iron drew silver hooks, and a cold and solemn air came to the face.
Only then did Shang Gui'an know that it turned out that Senior Brother had already felt the killing machine yesterday, no wonder Senior Brother seemed to be pondering today.
Is this the senior brother's rivers and lakes?
The invisible killing machine is coming at any time, and the inexplicable hostility is unguardable.
This time, he followed his senior brother to walk the rivers and lakes, and really felt the treacherous waves on the rivers and lakes, and he also kept following his senior brother's side, feeling that the senior brother didn't do anything, and actually provoked a mysterious enemy.
"Squeak!"
The door opened, and the two entered the room.
There was a person in the room on the other side, leaning against the door tightly, he breathed a long sigh of relief, just when Lou Jinchen came to his door, he was already so frightened that his heart was about to jump out.
One day was enough for him to find out who lived in that house.
Lou Jinchen, this man surrounded by rumors.
It is said that he is extremely talented, so he can kill the four realms in a short period of time.
Some people say that he is ruthless, even in the capital, he has never been soft, which makes many people feel terrible.
Some people say that he is arrogant and willful, which makes many people uneasy and dare not provoke him.
That's why he felt scared, thinking that Lou Jinchen lived next door, he felt that he needed to change a room to raise ghosts.
But that was also later, and now in this room, he didn't dare to walk a little heavier.
……
Lou Jinchen returned to the house, and Shang Gui'an stopped talking.
Lou Jinchen said with a smile: "Why, if you have something to say, you can say it." ”
"Senior brother, is there really anyone who wants to kill you?" Shang Gui'an said.
"Between life and death, others don't want to kill, and this world will also want to kill." Lou Jinchen smiled.
As he spoke, he walked to the attic and climbed the tower to look at the stars, which was also a kind of auxiliary practice for peace of mind.
Sitting down from the chair, Shang Gui'an leaned on the railing next to him and said, "Senior brother, do you know who is going to kill you?" ”
"I don't know." Lou Jinchen said: "A person's awareness can detect the approaching dangerous footsteps, but it may not be able to know where it comes from, others will hide, will confuse the public, what we see and hear, may be a trap deliberately set by others." ”
"So what do we do?" Shang Gui'an asked worriedly.
The rivers and lakes of cultivators are so cold and vicious.
"Wait." Lou Jinchen said.
"When?" Shang Gui'an said.
"Wait until the other party shows their traces." Lou Jinchen said.
"What if you don't wait for the other party to show their traces?" Shang Gui'an asked again.
"Then die." Lou Jinchen said quickly.
Shang Gui'an was stunned, he didn't expect Lou Jinchen to answer like this.
"Is there no other way?" Shang Gui'an said.
"Over-the-horizon combat, generational level combat, it is difficult to make up for the skill." Lou Jinchen's words made Shang Gui'an a little dazed.
He didn't understand it very well, but he still felt weird when he tasted it carefully in his heart.
"Don't understand?" Lou Jinchen asked.
Shang Gui'an shook his head.
"If you don't understand, it's right." Lou Jinchen said: "What is over-the-horizon? That is, the other party can see you, but you can't see the other party, so, he casts a spell on you, you can only bear it, you can only break the spell, you will always be passive, because you don't know where the enemy is, you can't fight back, and if you can't fight back, you can never get rid of the danger. ”
Shang Gui'an somewhat understood this explanation.
He immediately had a sense of the picture.
"Of course, this kind of over-the-horizon is not only a spatial distance, but also invisible, perhaps, someone is hiding next to us and is casting spells on us, and we don't know it at all."
The 'outsider' next door stiffened and didn't dare to move, he wanted to say, I didn't want to cast a spell on you at all.
Lou Jinchen said again: "An ant on the ground, you trampled on him with one foot, for it, this attack is extremely different, it can't see your attack, and it can't withstand it." ”
"Is this the person who casts the spell on the senior brother like this? Generation difference? Also over-the-horizon? Shang Gui'an didn't know how to express it all of a sudden, mainly because he felt awkward about these two words.
"No, he does have over-the-horizon, but he doesn't achieve generational difference, however, he achieves this over-the-horizon through spells."
"What kind of spell?" Shang Gui'an asked.
"I can't say what kind of spell it is, but a spell must be required, so that people can't see it or touch it, and many people will think it's some kind of concealment method when they hear it."
Lou Jinchen said: "Of course, it's not wrong to say this, what is hidden, what is invisible, what is evasion, people can't touch it." ”
"In a place I don't know, there lives a person I don't know, and I can't see or touch this person, but is he a reclusive? It can be said to me, and it can even be said that it does not exist, and such a person who does not exist in my consciousness has cast a spell on me, how can I know about him? ”
"But this person is real in the eyes of his neighbors, or his family."
Lou Jinchen said that Shang Gui'an seemed to understand something.
"So, how do we know that this person is harming?" Shang Gui'an asked.
"It's good to ask, to know, it's a kind of ability, it's awareness, awareness is actually separate, I can sense danger, but I can't know who is casting a spell, but I think one person can hide it from another, but it's hard to hide it from everyone."
"Even if you can hide it from everyone, it will definitely be difficult to hide it from the yin and yang of heaven and earth."
"If he can hide this, then he can hide it from me forever." Lou Jinchen said.
"Senior brother is well-informed, isn't there a way at all?" Shang Gui'an asked.
"What I've seen is all the past spells, and the people who cast spells on me must be familiar with all kinds of spells, and then push through the old and bring forth the new, I have classified some spells before, but the really powerful spells must be a combination of multiple spells."
Speaking of this, he said again: "The classification of spells I made before may not be very suitable, you can forget it." Because I feel like spells can't be classified, a good spell can't be classified, because there are so many aspects involved. ”
"Of course, it may also be that my current realm is not enough to make a comprehensive classification, but by looking at the cultivation fundamentals of each vein, I can already know where its focus lies."
At this moment, Lou Jinchen suddenly looked at the sky, and in the sky, a bird was hovering there, suddenly screaming, and then fell headlong and fell in the courtyard where Lou Jinchen was.
Lou Jinchen's eyes were sharp, and he saw that the crow's feet were actually tied to the letter cover.
Shang Gui'an also saw it, and jumped down, and the fire clouds surged under his feet, landing beside the crow.
He didn't take it directly with his hands, but took out a pair of chopsticks, held the crow, and flew up again, and came to Lou Jinchen's side, Lou Jinchen motioned for him to put it on the table.
Lou Jinchen looked at it.
A crow that had just died violently.
The crow has a meaning in Lou Jinchen's heart to report funeral and disaster.
It's poisonous.
Lou Jinchen didn't know much about poison, but the smell of that strange smell was extremely pungent.
It's an inferior poison.
Shang Gui'an used his chopsticks to flick the letter cover on his feet, and took out a small letter paper from it.
He used his chopsticks to peel it open, so that the words on it were exposed to the light, and Shang Gui'an's face changed greatly when he saw the words clearly.
Looking up at the senior brother, the senior brother's face was also solemn.
The reason why his face changed greatly was because the paper read: "Go and tell Lou Jinchen that there is a Yin spirit who came out of the netherworld and wants to kill him." ”
"Senior brother!" Shang Gui'an said worriedly.
How could someone pass such a letter to them?
This letter is almost another important proof, proving that someone really wants to kill Lou Jinchen, and the identity of the 'Yin Spirit of the Yin World' in it makes Shang Gui'an feel a sense of coldness.
When did Senior Brother provoke the Yin Spirit of the Netherworld?
"It seems that this is really a complex and grand spell." Lou Jinchen said.
This spell is grand, so you can't see the edge, it's like being caught in an ocean, surrounded by water, and full of malice, then you can't find the so-called source of spellcasting.
"Burn it." Lou Jin said.
Shang Gui'an picked up the crow, and the crow burned instantly, and then was thrown down by Shang Gui'an and fell to the ground.
"Let's go down."
Lou Jinchen stood up and went downstairs, after seeing that line of words just now, he clearly felt the malice, and it was clearer.
He knew that it was part of the spell.
In other words, reporting to him is actually a step in casting a spell.
When he returned to the bed below, he meditated on the bright moon that he had visualized, as if it had been overshadowed by clouds.
The dark cloud came from the murderous intent I felt, not the delusion.
If you really take it as a delusion, then you will be killed at that time, and I am afraid that there will be no alarm at all.
And he knew that this killing machine would eventually be transformed into a strangulation of himself, and this person's spell had already invaded his heart, and the layers of killing machines were superimposed, and finally he was injured with one blow and detonated in his body and mind.
He sat cross-legged, but the room seemed to be very lively this evening, and it was not long before there were bursts of cat meows like old men crying.
It seems to be crying, crying that someone is going to die.
Then there was a weird laugh, and if you listened closely, it was the rat's sound.
They also seem to be laughing at someone dying.
The next day, Shang Gui'an's face was not very good, and the two went out.
For breakfast, eat millet porridge.
As they sat there, they suddenly heard a child singing, "Whoever climbs the stairs and nears the sun dies, dies in the temple of the Severed Mountain, because he is the god of the mountain; The one who ascends the stairs and nears the sun dies, dies in the grave, because he is a ghoul who is dead and does not stiffen. The one who climbed the stairs and was near the sun died, and died in the city of Nine Springs, because he had already died there; ……”
"Those who climb the stairs and are close to the sun die, and die in the capital......"
"Those who climb the stairs and are close to the sun die, die on the top of the snow-capped mountains in the snowfield,......"
Shang Gui'an's face changed greatly when he heard the child singing such a song, and then he got up and found the child in the small alley.
After a while, he came back and told Lou Jinchen, saying, "These children don't know why, they said that they suddenly started singing, and they had a dream at the same time last night, and they sang this song repeatedly in their dreams." ”
"Very well, this person seems to have inquired carefully about my deeds......"
He took a deep breath, and at this time, the killing machine he felt in his heart was rapidly evolving, evolving into a dead machine.
Lou Jinchen understood that this was a spell that had entered the second stage.
The various warnings and letters sent in front of them only turned this kind of warning into a murderous machine, lingering in his body and mind, and making him unable to break free.
That is, it is equivalent to locking oneself, and when it is locked, it is a truly deadly spell that will come to the body.
"Kill to Die! It's good, I've learned it too. Lou Jinchen put down a few coins and got up.
Today is the time for the Covenant Conference.
He led Shang Gui'an towards the address.
The address is the general site of the Jiangzhou Chamber of Commerce, and there is a large meeting place in it.
Deng Ding was waiting at the door, and the closer he got there, the more crowded he became.
After Deng Ding met Lou Jinchen, he accompanied him in.
Deng Ding saw Shang Gui'an's face was extremely serious, and asked Shang Gui'an in a low voice, Shang Gui'an shook his head, he felt that this spell, it seemed that the more people knew about this spell, the greater the harm to the senior brother.
In the venue, there were name tags on every table, and Lou Jinchen came to his seat and sat down.
Before anyone sat down in the other seats, he was already kneeling, then took out a stack of paper from his treasure bag, and began to cut people.
Many people in the audience were talking in twos and threes, but only Lou Jinchen was sitting here as a paper-cutting person.
