24. Appeared! (1st Update)
Early.
"Kill! Kill! Kill! β
The little sparrow shouted again with its petite size.
She doesn't want to be raised by Tang Jiabai, since Xianggong is a martial arts genius, then she has to work hard together.
And for some reason, since she had a skin-to-skin relationship with Xianggong, she felt that her understanding was also a little taken away.
However, she didn't tell Xianggong, but wanted to surprise Xianggong.
Bai Yan glanced at his irascible little wife in surprise and withdrew his gaze.
Unlike the little sparrow, Bai Yan's sword practice did not go well.
Obviously, the realm after the Fa Xiang is extremely difficult to break through.
This has never happened before.
However, after a little thought, he could probably guess the reason.
The basis of his current cultivation of the sword technique is still the "Flying Fish Knife Method", which is a knife technique with very low intentions, and it is a knife technique that can be bought on the black market with some money.
This kind of intention can allow him to break through to the 13th layer, but it can no longer support him to reach an unprecedented realm.
Perhaps, he was looking for a knife technique that started very high.
In line with the idea of adjustment, Bai Yan planned to do something else, such as taking care of the small vegetable field, or visiting the eldest lady.
He walked out of the courtyard, walked for a while, and suddenly saw Tang Xianzhi standing on a high hill.
Tang Xianzhi is still wearing a plain and elegant ink-splashed skirt, and the golden hairpin strings up her jet-black hair, coiled up like a mountain stream, looking dignified and beautiful, revealing the intellectuality and atmosphere that the little sparrow can't learn.
In the wind, the skirt and hair are gently flying, which makes off a bit of the beauty in the painting.
But such a beauty frowned in the sun.
Bai Yan climbed the stairs.
Tang Xianzhi followed the sound and looked back, and when he saw the person coming, the gloomy clouds condensed between the willow eyebrows couldn't help but disperse, and he shouted gently: "Xiao Yan." β
Her titles have changed, although the two of them have no promise of "sister and brother", she has begun to regard Bai Yan as her beloved younger brother.
"Miss, what's wrong?" Bai Yan asked.
Tang Xianzhi said: "Just now, two family members and a maid disappeared. One of the maids' shoes is falling on the edge of the lake..."
As she spoke, she raised her gaze.
Bai Yan followed and looked, and sure enough, he saw a white round-headed woman's shoes falling on the grass by the lake, which was messy and had obvious traces of drag and struggle.
He also frowned, and swept his eyes, but saw that the entire Guiyun Lake had become gloomy again at some point, and even the wind blowing from the other side of the lake was terrifyingly cold.
Other than that, the lake is quiet.
This is not normal...
Normally, the fish in the lake will jump out of the water from time to time and make a noise.
Such a quiet... It's weird.
What's going on?
Tang Xianzhi suddenly said: "Uncle Zhu has gone to find out, and there have been disappearances in the entire Jianshan City, and most of them are related to Guiyun Lake. Some people also claimed to have seen water ghosts like Wang Er... It was these water spirits who dragged people into the water.
Six gates, the people of the City Lord's Mansion have been saying to check, but... They don't know what they're looking for. β
Bai Yan silently looked at the lake in the distance...
He had already cleaned the lake the night before, and there were no problems yesterday.
Why is it just a day?
Naturally, he was able to easily get an answerββββββ someone was continuing to raise ghosts.
He really wanted to find the Qian Qing who claimed to be from the Heavenly Dao Mansion and asked, what the hell were they doing?
...
...
Jianshan Castle, south of the city.
On an abandoned four-story building, Ram Ku was sitting leisurely, and behind him were a hundred crossbowmen in black soft armor, and... A strange man with a black cloth wrapped around his eyes and a shackled one hand.
This man is the real elite of Xiangye's mansion, and he is also the elite that Xiangye uses to face the new world.
It was precisely because of him that Qian Qing would be killed.
Otherwise... Those hundred crossbowmen really couldn't do anything about the butcher of the Heavenly Dao Mansion.
Similar to Qian Qing... This weird man has a strange profession called ββββ Torturer.
The ram said to himself: "Last night, there was no accident... We continue to stare tonight. There must still be people in the Heavenly Dao Mansion here... Otherwise, it would be impossible for so many water ghosts to disappear out of thin air and disappear overnight! β
The ram withered and was furious.
The strange man smiled coldly, he grabbed the shackles and shook them gently, his brows full of violence and confidence.
...
...
Night.
After the sparrow fell asleep.
Bai Yan changed into a gray cloak, put on a white mask, and went out again to Guiyun Lake.
Sure enough, as he expected, there were many water ghosts in this Guiyun Lake.
This means that many more innocent lives have died.
He walked quickly, and the sound of footsteps and human flesh, like the blood in the sea of sharks and the lights in the night, quickly attracted the attention of the water ghosts at the bottom of the lake.
There was a frequent "bang" sound in the water, and one ghost after another under the water shone in the cold light of the bright moon.
These ghosts are following Bai Yan.
But Bai Yan walked very fast, and he decided to "pull" some more water ghosts, and then use the power of the "ghost head" to reduce the time for using the "ghost head power".
Gradual... He walked as fast as he pulled out a slight afterimage, and the lake beside him was filled with the sound of "bang bang bang" and the piercing sound of the impact of gold and stones.
As soon as he "pulled", the water ghosts all followed, colliding with each other under the water, causing a lot of movement.
......
Distance...
Abandoned quadruple pavilion.
The ram is holding a "clairvoyant" and looking into the distance.
This clairvoyance is an invention of the Great Dragon Dynasty, and it is mostly used in the combat of the military headquarters, equipped with generals or scouts.
It's just that Xiangye has great powers, and he can get a lot of such equipment, and it is normal for the ram to wither as the manager of the Xiangfu who goes out, so he can get a handful.
"I hope tonight, I won't go home empty-handed~~~"
The ram withered has a feeling of overlooking the overall situation of Jianshan City.
If the people of the Heavenly Dao Mansion dare to come, they will die.
The clairvoyance slowly turned, sweeping over the secluded houses, the woods, the outlines of the mountains in the distance, and the white surroundings of Guiyun Lake in the moonlight.
Suddenly...
The ram slapped his clairvoyant sharply, and his eyes lit up and said, "There you have!" β
The strange man approached in an instant.
The ram withered threw the clairvoyance to him and said, "See his methods clearly first, and then do it later." β
"Hmm," the strange man replied.
"I walked very slowly, and I could barely see the back of my head from this angle... At such a late hour, wearing a gray cloak and a mask, the people of the Heavenly Dao Mansion were really cautious. Hey..."
When the hundred black-armored crossbowmen stationed here heard the conversation between the two adults, they immediately became solemn, cleared their sleepiness, and held their crossbows in their hands, ready to attack at any time.
In an instant, the atmosphere in the abandoned attic became tense.
...
...
Guiyun Lake.
Bai Yan saw that the "pulling monster" was almost done, so he made a move.
His skull began to twist backwards, "splitting" from its original skull, and "clicking" a hundred and eighty degrees, staring straight behind him.
Suddenly...
He slowed down.
The speed of the many water ghosts has also slowed down.
The water ghosts followed the rule of "dragging people into the water", and one by one they slowly and leisurely rushed to the shore, and then fell into an eerie silence as if they had crashed.
On the abandoned loft...
Suddenly, the strange man with his fingers shackled his body twitched, as if he had committed a madness, and fell straight back, his eyes rolled and his body twitched.
The shackles on his left hand made a screeching "gurgling" sound as they twitched and rubbed against the wooden floor.
This sudden scene directly stunned everyone.
The ram withered and cried out, "What's wrong with you?" β
However, the weird man was still smoking.
Ram Ku hurriedly took a jade bottle from his bosom, poured a medicine into his hand, pinched the strange man's nose, and tried to feed it into his mouth.
However, the strange man bit his mouth tightly and didn't open it at all.
The ram withered and threw the bottle to the side.
The centurion of the crossbowmen took it.
The ram withered and said, "Take him down to rest." β
The centurion hurriedly arranged for someone to go.
The ram withered continued to pick up the "clairvoyant" that fell to the side and observed, and he did not connect the two things of "using clairvoyance" and "fainting".
With this observation, a strange existence with two heads in gray was directly reflected in his vision...
The place that was originally the back of the head suddenly had a strange head.
The ram muttered, "Hell... Ghost... Appear......"
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly stiffened, a dull look appeared on his face, and then he grabbed his head with both hands like crazy and pulled it out fiercely.
But seeing that he couldn't pull it out, he impatiently pulled out the saber at his waist, pulled his hair with his left hand, and desperately cut it with his sword with his right hand.
Whew...
The neck was slashed by a sword.
Grabbing the hair with his left hand, he threw the entire head out of the window, leaving the headless corpse spurting blood out of place.
The black-armored crossbowmen were stunned when they saw this change.
