Chapter 25: Haunted
CHAPTER XXV
Lin Anyan couldn't sleep.
I don't know if he was beaten on the ground by Qi Liyun just now, and his whole back hurts now.
But Lin Anyan knew in his heart that the pain in his back was only a small part of the reason, and the insomnia was mainly because his mind was too messy.
From the time he left home until now, his mind has been in turmoil every day.
"Since you can't sleep, just read that book of "Invincible Swordsmanship" again. ”
Thinking in his heart, Lin Anyan took out the book that Zizhu specially brought for him from his bag.
Lin Anyan still hasn't understood why reading a book can give him the internal strength, if it is really so easy to practice, why go to Taibai Mountain.
Lin Anyan's voice on this side alarmed Qi Liyun, who was keeping vigil on the side.
This is the fifth day in a row that she has kept the first half of the night.
In fact, the first half of the night is the most uncomfortable, it is sleepy, and it has to be strong, and in the second half of the night, it is difficult to sleep, and before you can sleep steadily, you have to get up and hurry.
This is also the reason why she has always insisted on coming to the first half of the night by herself, after all, if she lets Lin Anyan come, it is estimated that she will not be able to bear it in two days.
At the moment, she was bored, so she got up and came to Lin Anyan's side to see what kind of reputation this kid was doing without sleeping in the middle of the night.
As soon as he walked over, Qi Liyun vaguely saw something like smoke and mist surrounding Lin Anyan.
The dense woods obscured the moonlight, and there was only a small burning bonfire around it, reflecting the twisted branches.
Qi Liyun rubbed his eyes, making sure that he was not mistaken, the mass of things was floating around Lin Anyan like that.
But Lin Anyan didn't react at the moment, leaning on the side of the big tree, lowering his head and muttering to himself.
"Ghost ...... Hell, there's a ghost!"
Qi Liyun, who had been afraid of these strange forces since he was a child, completely lost his mind at this moment and yelled.
With her roar, the birds in the entire woods were awakened and fluttered all over the sky, obscuring the last rays of moonlight.
When the birds dispersed, Qi Liyun only saw Lin Anyan looking at him like a fool, and there was any fog beside him.
"Qi Nuxia, are you crazy, what are you screaming in the middle of the night, how can there be a ghost?"
At this moment, Qi Liyun was still afraid, she raised her slightly trembling finger at Lin Anyan and said:
"Right next to you just now, I'm absolutely not mistaken, a white mist-like thing surrounds you. ”
Lin Anyan had never believed in these things, but the dim environment at the moment and Qi Liyun's frightened tone made his back feel a little chilly.
After Lin Anyan repeatedly confirmed that there was nothing around him, he simply got up, rolled up the "Invincible Swordsmanship", and knocked the book on the head of Qi Liyun, who was already a little stunned.
"Let me tell you, don't scare the master in the middle of the night, there is no white fog around here. ”
Qi Liyun knew that Lin Anyan didn't believe her, so she simply told everything she saw.
"It's true, I just heard a movement from your side and came to take a look, and I saw a white mist around you, and the mist still changed shape. ”
"And besides, just now you sat there motionless, not knowing what to say. ”
Lin Anyan, who was still a little lacking in confidence, immediately laughed after hearing this.
"You're sick, sir, I'm studying. ”
Saying that, Lin Anyan hesitated for a moment and handed the book in his hand to Qi Liyun.
Qi Liyun has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he has learned it by word of mouth under the guidance of his military advisor, and he has never seen any martial arts cheats.
She took the book and couldn't help but frown just by looking at the name.
"Invincible Swordsmanship? I'm afraid you're not being deceived by charlatans, this name is too casual. ”
Seeing that Qi Liyun's first reaction was the same as his own, Lin Anyan couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
"yes, that's what I thought at the time. But after I read this book, I first accidentally injured the cuckoo, and then almost won the battle against Zhang Cai of the Five Heavens. ”
In the past few days, he was in a hurry to rush back to the village to see the military advisor and his senior brothers and sisters, so that Qi Liyun had forgotten about it a little.
Now that Lin Anyan mentioned it again, she remembered that the cuckoo was injured by someone forcibly beating internal force into her body.
But she never believed the nonsense in Lin Anyan's mouth, "I just read a book all night".
Now that Lin Anyan took out the book, Qi Liyun simply didn't care whether Lin Anyan agreed or not, and sat down to read it.
Lin Anyan thought about it, and then she had to rely on this woman to protect herself all the way, so she should be bribed at this moment.
He thought that Qi Liyun would be like him, and he unconsciously read it.
Unexpectedly, after reading a few pages, Qi Liyun threw the book back to Lin Anyan.
You must know that Qi Liyun is a person with five heavenly skills, she returned the book to herself so casually, could it be that this book is fake?
Lin Anyan anxiously asked about the worries in his heart, but Qi Liyun shook his head and said:
"The book is real and very well written. ”
"This book seems to be a secret book, but I probably looked through it, and basically every move corresponds to the method of internal force cultivation. ”
"I am sure that if you practice martial arts according to this book, people with a foundation can cultivate both internally and externally, and improve at the same time. It's a rare and superior cheat, and I'm afraid only our Tieqimen's unique mind can be compared to him. ”
Lin Anyan, who had been worried about whether he had been fooled, couldn't help but be happy after getting the affirmation of Qi Liyun, who was a "martial arts person".
But Lin Anyan was a little puzzled.
"Then according to what you said, why don't you look at it more, wouldn't you be able to increase your power by looking at it twice. ”
Lin Anyan's question sounded to Qi Liyun, like a child asking a very childish question.
"This book is good, but no matter how good the book is, you have to practice it, just to see that there is a fart, I don't believe that you can read the internal strength when you read it. ”
"Moreover, on the rivers and lakes, it is taboo to learn other people's martial arts. ”
"A martial arts cheat like this level is likely to be completed by several generations of a martial arts family, if I am greedy to learn it for a while, people will see me like a thief in the future, and everyone will shout and beat me. ”
As he spoke, Qi Liyun seemed to have suddenly thought of something, looked at Lin Anyan anxiously and asked:
"This book can't be snatched by some means, right? It's broken, it's bad, if that's the case, wouldn't you be spurned by countless martial arts people, and I'm afraid you won't know how to die when the time comes." ”
Lin Anyan was really speechless at the moment, could it be that in Qi Liyun's eyes, he was just a gentleman who could only bully men and women, burn, kill and loot.
"Don't worry, this book was given to me by an old-timer. ”
Saying that, Lin Anyan told him everything that happened in the City God Temple that day.
"Now it seems that it was the master who was clumsy, if I recognized the old man as a master at the time, why bother to go to Taibai Mountain. ”
After listening to what Lin Anyan said, Qi Liyun couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
When she saw the old man who made the sword that day, she thought that she had already seen the top martial artist in Jingbei City.
Now it seems that I am afraid that there are people outside the world in this Jingbei City, and there are too many people and things that she doesn't know.
"The old man said that you are in a disaster, and even he cannot save you. Do you know what's going on now?"
Hearing Qi Liyun's question, Lin Anyan couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head.
"When I first felt that this "Invincible Swordsmanship" might be true, I thought about this question, but I still can't figure it out to this day, but I guess if I go on, I will encounter it sooner or later. ”
As he spoke, Lin Anyan took out a sealed letterhead from his clothes and handed it to Qi Liyun.
"What is this?"
"Letter from home. ”
"I can't even do anything about the old man, I'm afraid that if I really encounter it, you won't be able to save me, so you can just take care of yourself when the time comes. ”
Qi Liyun already knew about Lin Anyan at this moment, so he naturally knew that this letter, called a family letter, was actually a suicide note.
She nodded firmly and said:
"Don't worry, if that catastrophe really comes, I will definitely hand over this letter to Master Lin. ”
After saying nothing, Lin Anyan simply asked Qi Liyun to go to sleep, while he sat by the bonfire and continued to read.
Qi Liyun, who had been guarding the middle of the night five days in a row, really couldn't stop at the moment, and simply didn't refuse Lin Anyan's kindness.
I saw that she carefully folded the letterhead, put it in her bag, and then lay down on the spot, ready to rest.
But at the moment when Qi Liyun lay down, she seemed to see something where she glanced over.
Frightened, Qi Liyun hurriedly sat up.
This time, she definitely saw that Lin Anyan, who was sitting by the bonfire, was surrounded by a white mist at the moment.
The ghost is here again!
Qi Liyun was so frightened this time that he even stopped breathing.
Just as she was about to open her mouth to shout, Qi Liyun suddenly found that the white mist seemed to be a little familiar, as if she had seen this thing somewhere.
Since you've seen it, it's definitely not a ghost.
Qi Liyun, who slowly calmed down, recalled frantically, and finally remembered what this thing was.
She had seen it when she was watching her senior brother Qi Hao practice, which was a mist formed by the leakage of abundant internal force during practice.
"How is this possible?"
Qi Liyun looked at Lin Anyan, who was sitting by the fire and reading, with an incredulous expression.
In fact, when ordinary martial arts practitioners practice, the internal force will be unconsciously released, which is a normal phenomenon when the internal force is swimming in the body.
However, like this, the internal force can be so thick that it forms mist, and she has only seen it in Qi Hao, the senior brother who has the sevenfold heavenly power.
That's the Seven Heavens, a situation that ordinary martial artists may not be able to reach in a lifetime, how could Lin Anyan, who didn't know martial arts a few days ago, have this kind of realm.
And I don't know if Lin Anyan was sitting by the fire, the reason why the light was more abundant, Qi Liyun actually felt that the fog seemed to be thicker than that of the senior brother's side.
Qi Liyun, who couldn't believe his eyes, simply meditated on the spot, closed his eyes, and pinched a hand in his hand.
This is a trick that many people with high internal force will do, in fact, the principle is to deliberately release their own internal force, let their internal force swim around the body, and induce other people's internal force.
Masters use this trick to roughly judge how many enemies there are around, what the strength of the enemy is, and it is said that people with strong enough internal strength can find out all the people who practice martial arts within a radius of 500 miles.
At the beginning, Qi Liyun used this method to discover the ambush set by Lin Anyan in Jingbei City.
At this moment, Qi Liyun's internal force absorbed by the Soul Suppression Stone had not yet fully recovered, but it was definitely not a problem to explore the internal force within a mile of the surroundings.
Sure enough, as soon as she exercised, Qi Liyun felt the deep internal force coming from the direction where Lin Anyan was sitting, and the thickness of the internal force was far beyond Qi Liyun's imagination, and she couldn't judge how high this internal force was for a while.
But Qi Liyun felt very strange at the moment, because she found that the internal force seemed to be restrained by something, as long as she was a little away from Lin Anyan, she would be dragged back by something.
Just as Qi Liyun wanted to take a closer look, she suddenly felt that something was wrong.
I saw Qi Liyun open his eyes violently, got up and grabbed Lin Anyan, who was stunned, turned over and ran towards the horse.
