Chapter Forty-Nine: Dream Omen II
In the beginning.
Li Changan didn't find it weird.
From the moment he stepped into the Golden Mansion at the invitation of the master here, he carefully examined everything in the Mansion.
Demonic?
Can't smell it.
There are no abnormal changes in the flowers, plants, stones and trees in the courtyard of the house.
The people in the house also did their jobs, and they didn't look frightened or indifferent.
As if everything was normal, the news provided by the beggar was nothing more than a false alarm.
But Li Changan always had a faint uneasiness in his heart, so he left the banquet under the excuse of Xiao Jie, pretended to be drunk, wandered around the house, and carefully observed, and finally let him find something strange.
The people in the house are too well-behaved.
This rule does not mean that the family law is strict, but that these people's words, actions, and demeanor are too simple and too patterned.
Perhaps in the eyes of ancient people like Bo Ziyu and Zhang Yi, it was a big family with harsh rules that tied people up like people, but in the eyes of modern people like Li Changan, these people looked like ...... The N (Harmony) PC in the game acts according to the programmed settings.
But the Taoist priest quietly started to check, but found that these people were conscious, and there was no sign of manipulation on their bodies, which was really contradictory.
That's why Bo Ziyu just saw the scene where the Taoist priest stared at the burning maid.
But when he opened his mouth to laugh, the Taoist priest suddenly remembered a past.
It was the days of eating soil with cheap masters.
......
A small town called Yongxing has a solid family.
The son of this family is small and smart, and he is a famous prodigy from near and far.
But one day, Childe suddenly became stupid.
He gladly agreed to exchange stones for his silver, exchanged sheep dung balls for tempeh, and even one day when the yard of his house was repaired, and a gate through which he often passed was sealed and made into a wall, he did not know how to change the way, but slammed into it upright.
The family only thought that he had fallen into evil, so they invited a master to come to check, and sure enough, half of his soul was lost.
But then, no matter how you do it, the soul can't come back.
The results obtained are also inexplicable and confusing.
Until the master and apprentice who almost gnawed the bark of the tree came to the door by themselves.
Liu Laodao first ate a full meal of meat and drank a full of wine, then trembled his stomach, walked around the house, and finally took out an iron nail from the child's pillow.
It turned out to be just a simple winning technique.
It's just that the caster's mind is quite exquisite, and she hides Childe's soul in a place that no one can think of - Childe's dream.
It turns out that in these stupid days, whether Childe is eating, sleeping, being deceived, or hitting the wall, he is just dreaming, and he is just sleepwalking.
Half of the soul is hidden in a dream, and half of the soul is out of the world.
People are half asleep and half awake.
Others seem to be just stupid.
......
Bo Ziyu scratched his head when he heard this, he couldn't understand the treacherous changes in these fighting methods, so he directly asked the most concerned and fundamental question.
"So where are the demons?"
Li Changan pointed to the maid and the cook.
The maid had filled the holes in the stove, and the cook had put the dusted dough on a cold steamer.
"These half-dreaming and half-awake people seem normal, but in fact they are stupid and unable to cope with changes in the outside world. However, there is one person in this house who has a quick mind and can still drink and talk with us. โ
"Concierge...... And the gold clerk?"
Bo Ziyu suddenly realized, but his expression changed greatly, and he hurriedly rushed out.
"Suffered!
"Don't panic. โ
The Taoist priest grabbed him.
"Don't startle the snake. โ
............
Bo Ziyu only felt that his hands were not hands and his feet were not feet.
Standing at the door now, he clearly knew that the kind man in the room who diligently persuaded him to drink, but his real body was actually a man-eating demon, but in order not to startle the snake, he harmed Zhang Yi's life at the table.
I had to pretend that I didn't know anything, dragged my stiff steps, and took the initiative to lean towards the monster.
At the banquet in the house.
"Jin Yuanwai" also saw the two returning, and immediately greeted them warmly:
"The two of them are finally back, and the pot of warm wine is almost cold. โ
"No, it doesn't matter. Bo Ziyu stammered a little, "Cold wine refreshes his throat." โ
"That's fine. โ
"Outside" said, standing up to pour wine for Zhang Yi.
"Save the trouble and go to warm the wine again, if there is any errand in the pool, won't it disturb people's dreams?"
He had a vague smile on his face, and his words were soft, but when he heard it in Bo Ziyu's ears, it seemed to explode a thunderbolt, which made his hair stand on end.
Dream?
It found out!
Bo Ziyu's eyes were nailed to the past, looking at the "outsider" slowly tilting the wine jug, looking at the dazed Zhang Yi seemed to be aware, frowning and putting down the wine glass.
He was about to open his mouth to remind, but there was a sudden outburst of chill around him.
A glimpse.
But it was Li Changan's body leaning slightly, and he was already holding the sword in his hand.
"Wait. โ
"Outside" suddenly spoke up and smiled to both sides.
"Chief, look at them. โ
The banquet was set up indoors, and on either side of the table were servants of the chamberlain.
Now, at some point, all of those servants took out their daggers, not pointing at Li Changan and the others, but against their own throats.
"Dao Chief, be careful. โ
The "outsider" grinned, and the scene on his body was distorted and changed, and after a while, he became the rickety old man that the three of them saw at the beginning.
Layers of folds were piled up on his face, and the originally warm smile suddenly became cunning and eerie.
He said:
"It's easy to take the life of the decrepit, but it's not worth it if it affects the Jin family. โ
"Plagued demons!"
The green tendons on Bo Ziyu's neck flared up, but he didn't dare to step forward for half a step.
"Demon?" waved his hand "humbly" on the other side, "It's false, it's just a little charm." โ
As he spoke, he clapped his hands, and suddenly there was a dense sound of footsteps outside the door, and in a short time, he saw that the fire maid, the cook, and the rest of the people in the house were all gathered together, and each of them was holding daggers, sharp knives, hairpins, and even broken pottery shards, and other sharp objects, all aimed at their own throats.
I'm afraid that Li Changan has a slight change, and the Jin family has to bury this monster first.
Li Changan glanced around, and finally had to press the killing machine.
"Say, what do you want?"
Wouldn't it be even more strange if you had asked for nothing after such a big effort?
Sure enough, the youkai didn't go around in circles anymore.
"Not much, just one life. โ
"Who's?"
"Mine, but ......," it said, "I see that the Taoist chief is awe-inspiring, and it really terrifies my generation. Why don't you ask the Taoist to kill himself here, so as to appease the old and decaying. I promise to let go of the upper and lower parts of the house, and from now on leave Xiaoshui and avoid the mountains and forests......"
Click.
A shattering sound interrupted its words.
But the wine glass in Zhang Yi's hand was shattered, the crack cut the tiger's mouth, and the blood smeared into the wine and stained the placket.
The monster grinned and took a new wine glass, filling it for the ranger, and said slowly:
"Wouldn't it be cost-effective to exchange one person's life for a full house?"
"Bargain for your mother......"
Bo Ziyu finally couldn't bear it anymore and scolded.
Li Changan was not as violent as him, but calmly looked at the monster opposite.
He was curious.
It's also a monster catalyzed by the plague, why is there such a big difference?
There are different types, and even wisdom and personality are obviously different.
The charm and the scourge are like crazy beasts, and the tiger aunt acts completely according to the legend, the ghost is forbearing, the Tai Sui is debauched, and the one in front of her shows cunning and arrogance.
In the conversation, he only talked about Li Changan, and he didn't care about the other two.
probably thought that among the three people, only Li Changan, who had a strange skill, was the real threat, and as for the rangers and catchers, they were just ordinary people with better skills, so there was nothing to worry about.
Therefore, while threatening the life of the Taoist priest with the life of the Golden Mansion, it can also pour wine for the ranger so lightly.
Of course, Zhang Yi also knew this, but when he entered the table before, the saber on his body was untied to the side, and now he is acting like a bachelor, and the wine poured by the monster will not refuse.
Seven or eight glasses of belly, as if the wine was hot, irritably ripped off the placket, revealing a little cold hardness in his arms.
Li Changan's eyes flashed, and he suddenly drew his sword out of its sheath.
The monster's movements suddenly froze, and the blades of the surrounding "puppets" against their necks also tightened a little.
The sky outside the door was fading, and the room was a little gray.
Li Changan opened his mouth, but it was:
"Words count. โ
"Dao Chief?" Bo Ziyu was incredulous, "You're crazy!"
"The monks are compassionate. Li Changan lowered his eyebrows, "If I don't go to hell, who will go to hell?"
"That's what the monk said!"
The Taoist priest also said. โ
Li Changan no longer paid attention to him, only stared at the demon, and repeated: "Words count." โ
The monster didn't think that the Taoist priest really agreed, with six points of vigilance, three points of suspicion, and one point of luck:
"Of course. โ
"Good. โ
Li Changan's face was bleak and resolute, and he actually wiped his sword on his neck.
Bo Ziyu hurriedly came to grab it, but was picked up by the Taoist priest. The monster's attention was completely attracted, holding a wine jug in his hand, but he forgot to continue pouring wine for Zhang Yi.
So, the ranger shook the empty wine glass, ripped open the already scattered placket, and revealed a short blade hidden in his bosom.
And then.
With the hand that lowered the glass, he firmly grasped the hilt of the knife.
Qiang.
Knife light bursts!
Bo Ziyu, who was about to snatch the sword in the hand of the Taoist priest, was coldly blinded by this cold light, shivered, and squeezed out of his throat.
"Huh?"
The ranger had already put away his knife and snatched the flask from the stiff and motionless monster.
Fill your glass and drink it all in one gulp.
Exhale~ exhale a long mouthful of turbidity.
The monster's body shook immediately, and a line of blood suddenly cracked on its neck.
Immediately.
Blood splattered, and the head rolled to the ground.
Here, Li Changan also put away his sword, and he didn't have the convulsive "compassion" at all.
Bo Ziyu still didn't understand that Li Changan just acted in a scene to attract the attention of the monsters and fight for the opportunity for the ranger to hit the head of the owl.
He blinked.
โ...... The youkai?"
"Maybe dead. โ
"What about the others?"
He was answered by a series of "poofs" falling to the ground.
As the monster's corpse fell to the ground, the people under its control also fell.
The three of them hurriedly leaned over to check.
A moment later.
The three of them looked at each other, their expressions full of hesitation.
These people ...... I'm still asleep.
