At this time, the moon is dark and the wind is high, and the time has entered the darkness of the night, the bright moon is hidden in the thick dark clouds, the starlight in the sky is extinguished, the temperature between heaven and earth has plummeted a lot, and the cold air is forcing people to be lonely.

In the deepest part of the palace, in the three-story underground hall, the faint candlelight in front of the old man could not dispel the cold, and the cold air that penetrated the surface gathered in this underground palace, and the cold air felt was biting cold, he slowly got up and took off a coat from the hanger behind him and put it on his body, he put on his clothes and sat back in front of the wooden table.

But at this moment, the door of the main hall was suddenly opened, and a bleak cold wind blew in, and the gloomy and cold meaning turned into a thick fog and filled the ground, slowly flowing into the main hall.

For a time, the ghost atmosphere at the gate of the temple was strong and the yin atmosphere was pressing.

Instead of panicking, the old man showed a hint of excitement when he saw this scene, and looked at the door with expectant eyes.

A short time later, a figure appeared in the doorway, the figure was pitch black, except for the faint blue light in his eyes.

"For so long, I thought you had forgotten the task I gave you. Elder Tooth said to the dark figure.

The dark shadow at the doorway entered the temple, and he walked slowly, the ground beneath his feet covered with frost.

"How can I forget that my freedom is in your hands, Lord Tooth. ”

Slowly, the figure walked into the table, and the candlelight on the table flickered under his ghostly aura, as if it would be extinguished at any time, and the face reflected under the candlelight was the Soul Shura Shadow.

"If you remember, sit down. ”

After the Rakshasa Shadow sat down, the Rakshasa Shadow did not immediately talk about the arrest of Lin Qi, but clapped his hands and called.

Immediately, a guard appeared from the darkness behind, and he held a plate of hot tea in front of the old man, and then retreated by hooking his body.

"It's late at night, it's cold, I'm an old man can't stand up to such cold, come and drink a cup of hot tea to warm up. ”

As he spoke, he opened the two cups and poured a cup of hot tea for Rakshasa Shadow and himself, and he pushed the hot teacup in front of Rakshasa Shadow.

And the hot tea was covered with a layer of frost under the soul power of the Rakshasa Shadow.

The old man dragged the hot tea with one hand, gently brushed off the tea leaves with the lid with the other, and took a sip slowly.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I've never liked tea, let alone hot tea, so forget about it. ”

As he spoke, Rakshasa Shadow pushed the teacup back with his fingers, and the water in the teacup became cold under the influence of Rakshasa Shadow's cold body temperature.

The old man grinned softly at this, and he put down the teacup, crossed his dry fingers, and said in an unhurried tone.

"Now that you're back, I think you'll give me a satisfactory result, but don't let me down. ”

Rakshasa Shadow chuckled, rubbed his fingers and said, "As for whether I can give you a satisfactory result, it depends on the sincerity of the old man with the teeth." ”

When he heard this, he said indifferently: "I said that I would give you forty years of freedom, and I can always say that I can do this condition." ”

With that, his withered hand took out a life soul card from his pocket, and this life soul card was where the Rakshasa Shadow Yuan Soul was located.

Seeing that the old man took out this life soul card, Rakshasa Shadow's pupils shrank, he stared at the life soul card for a long time and couldn't turn back, and only after a moment did Rakshasa Shadow speak.

"Lady Tooth, I feel it is necessary for me to talk to you about the agreement we have reached. ”

Hearing Rakshasa Shadow say this, the old man with a soft sigh took back the life soul card.

"Why, aren't you satisfied with the conditions I gave you, forty years is a great thing to not be sent by me, forty years is just a short time in a boring life for a soul cultivator like you, but for an old man like me, I don't know if there will be another forty years. ”

Rakshasa Shadow also spread his hands at this time and said: "The person you asked me to arrest this time, this kid is very strong, I spent a lot of soul power to capture him, and it is very difficult to make up for these soul powers, and the old man is so interested in this kid, it is not too much for me to ask for a little more." ”

Rakshasa said and rubbed his wrists, his eyes full of exhaustion.

"Hahaha, when do you think you'll be able to negotiate terms with me?" said the old man again, with a hint of threat in his words.

Listening to the other party's threatening tone, Rakshasa Shadow grinned.

"Ha, after following the old man with the tooth for a long time, he naturally learned to use the advantage in his hand to seize the power to speak, and this is all thanks to the old man with the tooth for his good teaching. ”

"Hahahaha, it's really not the ignorant person I used to be, as a soul, you are indeed more satisfied with me, talk about your conditions. ”

Hearing that the old man had really made a concession, which Rakshasa Shadow hadn't expected, a sly look flashed in his eyes and he put forward the conditions.

"I want true freedom, not the freedom to be held in bondage for a limited time"

As soon as he finished speaking, the aura of the old man changed suddenly, his dry fingers made a cooing sound, and his eyes also showed a murderous aura.

"Very good, you have learned a lot of things but these things are not what I want you to learn, you know how to negotiate conditions, but you have not learned how to come up with the right conditions. ”

In this regard, Rakshasa Shadow could only laugh and say: "Why should I be angry, my life is subject to you, how dare I put forward excessive conditions, it's just that people always like to gamble, I just gambled, and the old man said no, then I can only accept the forty years of freedom." ”

Hearing Rakshasa Shadow say this, the anger of the old man subsided a little, and he chuckled and begged Rakshasa Shadow.

"In that case, it's time for you to hand over what I want. ”

At the critical moment, Rakshasa Shadow slowly stood up, he walked to the back of the empty place, and with a wave of his hand, a black gas vortex appeared in the candlelight.

Rakshasa Shadow looked at the black gas vortex, he slowly stretched out his hand into the black gas, and after a while, his arm slowly withdrew, and then a figure grabbed out with Rakshasa Shadow's hand.

"The one who always wants to be toothy, that's right. ”

The old man looked at it fixedly, and in the hand of the Rakshasa Shadow was Lin Qi, who had removed the ghost face and revealed his true face.

"Very good, very good, very good, you can leave him behind, and I will not interfere with your actions for the next forty years. ”

The old man said that three were good, and then grabbed Lin Qi with his dry hand in the depths, and directly grabbed Lin Qi in the air, and he grabbed Lin Qi's neck with excitement in his eyes.

He grabbed Lin Qi and shouted a fixed word, and then he let go of his hand, and Lin Qi was already fixed in the air.

"Finally let me catch you, and things will be much easier with you. ”

The old man said secretly, he looked at the Rakshasa Shadow and saw that the Rakshasa Shadow was still there.

"You've done your mission, now you can go?"

Rakshasa Shadow's eyes glanced at Lin Qi imperceptibly, and then he showed a relaxed expression and turned to leave.

He turned into black gas and escaped from the underground hall, and disappeared into the night.

When the Rakshasa Shadow left, the old man raised his dry hand and waved it towards the door, and the heavy gate closed heavily with his palm, and the old man waved his hand lightly when he closed the door.

In the darkness behind him, a Bearded Guard walked up, and he walked up to the Old Tooth and bowed down and asked.

"What do you command?"

"Open the ban and close this hall, you all exit this hall, and then you will do what I arranged. The old man said coldly.

When the guard heard this, he retreated and hid in the darkness behind him again, and in a short time, there was a buzzing sound throughout the whole building, and at this time, if it was visible outside the hall, the huge palace hidden underground was already shrouded in a dark red light curtain.

A huge dark red light curtain formed a dome to cover the entire temple, and the flowing forbidden power made it impossible for the cold qi of heaven and earth to penetrate.

Now, there are only two people left in this hall, Lin Qi, who is unconscious, and the old man who is smiling.

A smile appeared on the face of the fainting Lin Qi, and as soon as his hand pushed, Lin Qi, who was suspended in the air, was pushed onto the chair opposite him.

He looked at Lin Qi thoughtfully, but he didn't make any other moves towards Lin Qi, as if he was waiting, waiting for Lin Qi to wake up.

Just as he was waiting, the figure of the Rakshasa shadow outside the underground hall appeared in a hidden place, and he lurked there, staring at a piece of jade slip in his hand with cold eyes.

He was also waiting, waiting for the reaction of the sound-transmitting jade slip in his hand, but after waiting for a while, the jade slip in his hand did not have any reaction, so Rakshasa Shadow couldn't help frowning.

"No response, could it be that there is something wrong with the jade slip?" said to him lightly, and then he put the jade slip to his ear, and he forced his eyes to concentrate on the jade slip.

At this time, he only heard a little sound from the jade slip, it was a regular and powerful sound, and Rakshasa Shadow could hear that it was Lin Qi's heartbeat.

There is this voice that means that there is nothing wrong with that Yu Jian, and the problem is with the old man.

"Old fox, you don't say a word at this time, I see how long you can be silent. ”

After saying that, Rakshasa Shadow shrunk this piece of jade slip as well, and then put it in his ear, and then Rakshasa Shadow stood up, he looked at the guards coming and going on the road in a hidden place, and he grinned secretly.

"Since you don't move, then I will settle first, and the arrangement of grief should also be in place at this time, so I will first eradicate some people who are in the way.

As he spoke, Rakshasa took out a piece of parchment, and the parchment was drawn with an image of this palace, and it was marked with the location of each dark post, which was a map of the layout of the dark whistle.

"There are a lot of secret sentinels in the palace, and they are all extraordinary, they are all in the dark, if there is a situation, these people will ventilate the news, and at the same time will sell in the dark, if you don't eradicate these people, then the consequences are unimaginable. ”

As he spoke, his eyes wandered over the dark posts on the map, and after looking at it for a while, he found that there were many sentry posts in the palace, and they were tightly arranged and there were almost no four corners.

"The palace is divided into eighteen outposts, eighteen heavenly sentries, and six dragon sentry posts, the two sentry posts of heaven and earth are fixed sentry posts, and the six dragon sentry posts are dark patrol sentry posts, so staggered can be described as a net of heaven and earth. ”

Rakshasa Shadow's face was filled with embarrassment.

"If you want to crack it, you can only solve them from the time when each outpost has not yet been discovered, but fortunately, each of the six dragon outposts is only responsible for the inspection of six fixed outposts, and does not inspect the other outposts, so I only need to eradicate them within the time that a outpost has not yet been discovered, and I can break his entire outpost system by getting rid of this outpost. ”

Once he had decided on his plan, Rakshasa set his sights on the location of the first outpost.
