Chapter 008: Seven Kills
Sensing Wei Shu's gaze, Zhou Shang also felt that his appearance was inappropriate, so he hurriedly raised his sleeves to wipe his face, and went to dust off his robe, his attitude was very earnest, as if he wanted to maintain enough etiquette in front of Wei Shu, even if there were only two of them in this hall, and there was no third pair of eyes.
Disguise? Drama? Looking for something? Still is...... Another plan?
What is Akith's relationship with him?
Wei Shu was puzzled in her heart.
However, in the deepest part of his memory, Akith didn't seem to be surprised by this, as if the two of them were the same when they were together.
"I'll help the girl out."
After sorting things out slightly, Zhou Shang took two steps forward, and naturally half-helped Wei Shu to stand up and walked slowly outside the hall.
Wei Shu actually didn't want to leave at all.
She was still thinking about the two corpses in the backyard, but at this time, the situation forced her to leave, and she had to think about a question immediately:
Do you want to point out that there are dead people in the well now, or do you talk about it later?
The hesitation was only a moment, and soon Wei Shu had a plan:
I'll talk about that later.
The latter is obviously more secure than picking it out on the spot. It's not that she was lucky and hoped that Zhou Shang didn't see the corpse, but that her current situation is very unfavorable, and it is risky to open her mouth rashly.
Say less, do more, see more, do everything possible to delay time, and remember more about the local characters and relatives and friends here, so that when you have to speak, there will be fewer mistakes and omissions.
Just when Wei Shu was thinking, Zhou Shang had already led her along the dilapidated eaves to the outside of the small mountain gate, and then, his footsteps suddenly paused, and he bowed slightly to Wei Shu and said:
"The girl's stuff is here. It was when I saw these things that I guessed that the girl was sheltering from the rain here, and when I came in to look for it, I found the girl. ”
Wei Shu followed his line of sight.
In the corner of the outer wall of the mountain gate, a few things are placed upright: a folded green cloth oil umbrella, a pair of wooden clogs, and a bamboo basket covered with oil cloth.
Last night it rained and the wind was raging, and the oilcloth on the basket rolled up a corner, and it was empty, apparently there was nothing to put in.
This is...... Akith's?
The inexplicable sense of familiarity hit her heart again, and Wei Shu walked over, put on the clogs and tied the straps.
Sure enough, the size is just right, and it is really Akisi's thing, and the oil umbrella and bamboo basket must have been specially placed there by her.
Thinking like this, a fragment from yesterday suddenly appeared in Wei Shu's mind:
Braving the heavy rain, Akisi hurried to the mountain temple, placed a few things here, and then broke into the main hall......
No, it's not the first time she's here!
The pages of the book in the darkness suddenly turned rapidly, and the pictures seemed to be in front of me:
A girl in a blue skirt hesitated in front of the hill gate; A girl dressed in black patrolled the hall late at night; The slender figure in a white dress fluttered like a ghost, frightening passers-by to flee and flee; At the dawn of the snowy day, there was silence all around, and the girl's body was like a flying swallow, shuttling through the roof of the mountain temple......
Haunted, unlucky, and monsters in the mountain temple...... There are more and more rumors in the market, and the mountain temple is gradually deserted, and finally it is abandoned, and the memories like a marquee also stop at this time, and the last moment is conjured:
In the heavy rain like a waterfall, the girl jumped into the hall like an arrow, and the sound of the flying skirt and hidden weapon breaking through the air hid her sword-throwing action.
She chose a perfect angle, and the beams and pillars of the hall, the stones, the fallen statues, and even the wind and rain outside the window were all her cover.
Akith did it on purpose.
Wei Shu suddenly realized.
The maiden frequented here, pretending to be ghosts and scaring passers-by, gradually making the temple deserted and deserted, in order to make it the most favorite place for her and others like her:
An inaccessible place, quiet in the middle of the noise, an excellent place to kill and throw corpses when attacking and retreating.
This is a year-long or even more set up by the girl, in order to lead the opponent who may be pursued into the death of the opponent who thinks he has a certain chance of victory.
Yesterday's leap through the window was the result of countless drills after Akisi piled up the clay square, moved the statue, adjusted the angle, and then practiced countless times.
It's a pity that the girl calculated everything, but only missed the opponent's skyrocketing internal force.
I thought that with my profound skills and soft armor protection, I could fight hard to take a blow from the opponent, and then kill the opponent with the "Hidden Front" stunt, but I was killed directly.
As the saying goes, people are not as good as heaven, if that wisp of fragrant soul is known under the spring, what will they think at this time?
Wei Shu's thoughts gradually drifted away, and soon, a name with a very rich atmosphere jumped into her mind:
"Seven Kills and Sealing Pulses"
Yes, Hook Ba must have performed this technique to make his internal strength soar.
In Akith's memory, the other party got this secret a long time ago.
This is a retrograde meridian and then ban to temporarily enhance the power of the exercise, each one vein, can increase the power of one percent, the seven veins are sealed, the power of the power is doubled.
However, this exercise has a fatal weakness, that is, after the move, you must immediately open the pulse and follow the meridians, otherwise you will either die or go crazy, and this opening of the pulse and the meridians requires at least ten breaths of effort.
In other words, if the Seven Kills Sealing Pulse Technique misses with one blow, it is tantamount to giving one's life to others.
It is precisely because of this that the reputation of "Seven Kills and Sealing the Pulse" in the rivers and lakes is not good, and many people regard it as a crooked and evil way.
And Hook Eight didn't make another move for a long time after the successful sneak attack, and he must be opening the pulse and following the meridians, if not, even if Wei Shu returned to his soul, he would die at his hands.
Is this also providential?
"Come, Miss Aqi, I'll hold an umbrella for you." Zhou Shang's voice rang out.
Wei Shu's head was dark, and when he raised his eyes, the green umbrella was like an open lotus leaf, the umbrella surface was slightly tilted, and most of Zhou Shang's body was outside the umbrella, as if he was serving thoughtfully.
Wei Shu remained silent, raised her hand to lightly sweep her sideburns, and her eyes swept to the bracket on the umbrella handle, slightly curious.
The Liang Dynasty also had a Huagiro umbrella, which was often used in the palace ceremonial guard, but the umbrella was only open, and it was much larger than this. Today, the umbrella is not only light and compact, but also easy to retract, which is quite interesting.
From this point of view, it seems that this foreign land and foreign country are not completely barbaric and chaotic, but there is still some merit.
Wei Shu brushed the sleeves of her shirt, which were not wide, and lowered her eyebrows to arrange the hem of her skirt.
Zhou Shang gave her a strange look.
For some reason, when he raised the oil umbrella high, the natural and calm demeanor of the girl in front of him made him have a thought of "I should have served her", which was very strange.
Zhou Shang frowned, and then let go again, Wei Shu also took care of his clothes at this time, and turned his head to look over.
The two of them, each with their own thoughts, smiled at each other, one carefully held an umbrella, and the other walked slowly out of the temple gate.
