Heqing County.

Lin Xixi sat at the table alone in a daze, and the light drove away a small corner of darkness. From time to time, there was the sound of fluttering water, and the red carp was swimming restlessly.

Originally, she planned to stay in her grandmother's house for one night, but just now, for some reason, she was brought over by Liu Yayi.

When she opened her mouth and wanted to go back, the Liu family's warm hospitality and retention made her unable to refuse, and finally stayed like this.

The Liu family was still very polite and thoughtful to the monks, and this room was elegantly furnished and very clean.

Bringing the fish basket to his side, the carp inside kept floating on the surface of the water, Lin Xixi put his chin on the handle of the fish basket, and tears fell on the rippling water, splashing new splashes.

Suddenly, there was a noise outside, as if a fire flashed.

Lin Xixi was unconscious, until a knock on the door sounded.

She stood up and opened the door, and several members of the Liu family stood outside the door, led by Liu Yayi's father, a middle-aged man with an anxious look.

"Monk, something big is happening outside, there are thieves making trouble in Heqing County!"

"Thieves?" Lin Xi was stunned for a moment, and his attention gradually shifted back.

"I just got the news that there are thieves who are making trouble at night, and they don't know how to enter the city. is killing everywhere, and even almost broke into the county office. It is said that they were looking for two monks, a man and a woman, with a basket of fish. ”

The words of the head of the Liu family were obviously tactful, but Liu Yayi was very direct, she came up and grabbed Lin Xixi's hand tightly:

"Xixi, the servants excluded by the Liu family found out that they were rushing to the Liu family, and they came here because you were in the Liu family. You are a monk, you can definitely fight them off. ”

"I ......" Looking at Liu Yayi, who was pale and a little nervous, Lin Xixi was stunned for a while, and she didn't have any real sense of what was happening in front of her.

"Yayi, stand down!" The head of the Liu family dismissed his daughter, his expression was still a little calm, and he said:

"Now that the matter is urgent and at stake, can you ask the monk to go to the lobby to take charge?"

Lin Xixi hesitated for a moment and nodded:

"Okay."

Then, surrounded by everyone, he walked to the lobby.

Before leaving, she glanced at the fish basket on the table, and the water splashed and soaked the table.

......

It didn't take long for the courtyard of the main entrance of the Liu family to gather in the wide lobby of the head of the Liu family and important figures of the Liu family, including some women and children.

There was a low noise, and in the courtyard were some hard-dressed guards, armed and solemn.

Lin Xixi sat in front of the chair at the door of the lobby, his expression still a little unreal.

But the unreality was quickly shattered by a loud bang.

"Boom!"

There was a jolt from the closed gate, and the courtyard in the courtyard suddenly became tense.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

In the next moment, the wooden latch, which looked thin compared to the tall door, was smashed, and several wooden sticks against the door were also shaken and scattered.

A log was thrown on the ground.

Two men in strong suits pushed open the door, and behind them a dozen men with weapons and bloodstains rushed in, they all had one thing in common, a long scarf with a black belt tied on their foreheads.

"When! While! While! ”

Before they could react, the nursing home exchanged hands with these men in black scarves.

The shouts of killing continued.

"Monk, please do it." The head of the Liu family wiped the sweat from his forehead, walked up to Lin Xixi and whispered.

"Lin Xixi, they are coming at you!" Liu Yayi's face was pale and she screamed in the distance.

The surrounding Liu family suddenly looked at Lin Xixi.

Although Lin Xixi was in a trance because of her grandmother's death, she still reacted at this moment.

Hearing Liu Yayi's words, she bit her lip, walked out of the hall, pinched the trick in her hand, and said softly:

"Away from the fire shield!"

The sound of the wind suddenly sounded in the chaotic night, and where the spiritual power fluctuated, the firelight suddenly rose, illuminating Lin Xixi's pale face.

Whew!

The flames burned, swirling in the air, like a round shield, passing through the courtyards on both sides, and smashing towards the black scarf men!

Boom!

"Ahh Pain, pain, pain! ”

"It's a spell! Evacuate! ”

"I'm on fire, save me!!"

Flesh and blood splattered, screams came and went!

The effect of the blow was unexpected, and the man in the black scarf immediately retracted his offensive and retreated.

Even though they were both brave and strong men, the vast difference between monks and mortals was so insurmountable.

The nursing homes that were fighting were also stunned by this blow, forgetting to pursue for a while, and some of them had to gasp for breath to bandage the new wounds.

This blow from the fire shield injected a boost to the Liu family, and many people looked uplifted.

The head of the Liu family shouted excitedly:

"The immortals are here, where are the thieves, dare to dare to commit murder, and they will be arrested without restraint!"

Look at the splattered flesh and blood, and the black-scarf man dyed with fire. Lin Xixi's face was a little pale, but he had also experienced tragic battles in the Zhaoying River, so he just bit his lip and didn't say anything.

The black-scarf men who dragged their wounded companions to retreat in embarrassment had no intention of fighting, and retreated like a tide.

"The thief is afraid! Run! Someone in the Liu family shouted excitedly.

There are also people who have a sense of unreality, and they retreat so easily?

Boom!

Outside the house, a bunch of fireworks flew into the sky with a bang.

The air freezes instantly.

"Oh no, they're calling for reinforcements!"

Some guards picked up weapons, leaned out of the door, and found that after the men in black scarves left Liu's house, they did not disperse, but just carefully hid outside.

"Reinforcements, what reinforcements are you afraid of? There are immortals here, and no matter how many reinforcements come, they will be nothing more than cannon fodder. ”

"That's right, after a while, the magistrate will definitely send troops to quell the chaos. We rely on the immortals to stay here. When I went out, I messed up. ”

There are too many members of the Liu family, and there are dozens of people hiding in the lobby alone, arguing with each other.

The head of the Liu family frowned, and his face showed a little hesitation.

Suddenly, something was thrown off the courtyard wall. At first, it only caused several nursing homes to exclaim, until someone shouted "Lord Zhixian", everyone's eyes were attracted and they looked towards the middle of the courtyard.

Blood spilled across the flame-covered stone slabs, confined to a head with pale hair. The skull's expression before his death was still a little unwilling, surprised, and fearful.

"Lord Zhixian! It's the prefectural lord!! ”

"Lord Zhixian is dead!"

Following the direction in which the head was thrown, a man in black appeared on the courtyard wall at some point, with long hair scattered and a black scarf wrapped around his forehead, blending into the inky night, which was almost impossible to detect without looking closely.

The firelight shone on the corner of his face, revealing a sense of indifference.

"Immortal, please take action and capture the thief who killed the magistrate!" Some Liu family members were frightened and asked Lin Xixi for help.

Lin Xixi didn't start right away as she had just now, and when the head of the Liu family saw her serious face, he suddenly felt a sigh in his heart.

He ...... He is also a monk, and his realm is not weaker than mine. In the night when the torches were burning, Lin Xixi's words made the lobby of the Liu family suddenly quiet.

At this moment, the man in black on the courtyard wall shook off the blood stains on his hand and said softly:

"If the county is unkind, send him to his death."

Then, he looked at Lin Xixi in the field, as if reciting a code:

"It's dark!"

"It's dark!"

The men in black scarves outside the courtyard shouted in unison, and once again came in through the main entrance.

On the courtyard wall, the second and third ghostly black scarf monks appeared.
