Lin Chunxi gasped heavily, hurriedly exercised his breath, as the cold wind blew, Lin Chunxi's consciousness became more and more sober, peeking into the hall, the city god was still sitting upright in the hall, everything in the store was the same as when he first entered, there was no change, at this time Lin Chunxi understood that he was hallucinating, but who was the person who just dragged himself out, obviously he was just deep in the hall, and now he was standing in the courtyard.

Suddenly, there were bursts of laughter like silver bells behind Lin Chunxi's ears, and a familiar smell came to his face, Lin Chunxi turned around suddenly, only to see a woman dressed in black standing in front of him, this person was wearing a thin veil, who could it be if it was not the woman who had fought with him a few nights ago. Because he never knew whether the other party was friend or foe, Lin Chunxi always remained vigilant, the other party did not hold a weapon in his hand, Ying Ying looked at himself, although he was through the veil, but he could still feel the other party's smile, Lin Chunxi was puzzled, and was about to open his mouth to ask, only to hear the woman opposite answer, "I thought you were so powerful, wasn't it quite neat to crack my illusion that night, why can't you stand a little incense today?"

At this time, Lin Chunxi recalled the feeling just now, it turned out that he was not an illusion, he should have been poisoned, it is said that he had also had anti-drug training against various toxins in the past, if it was a medicine for cultivators, he would not have no reaction at all. The woman in black looked at Lin Chunxi, who was full of doubts, sneered, and told him with a smile, "Do you think that is some kind of advanced medicine, in fact, it is just the most common incense ecstasy on the rivers and lakes, no matter how ordinary it is, every character in the rivers and lakes will have it in his hands, just to deal with ordinary people, you cultivators, where have you ever seen such a crude drug, but it is because it is too ordinary, so you will fall into the Tao, understand?"

When Lin Chunxi heard her say this, he suddenly realized, and was just about to continue to ask something, when he suddenly looked at the other party, "Why are you here?"

The woman smiled again, "This City God Temple has a history of a hundred years, why can you come, I can't come, but don't worry, it's just a coincidence, I should say that I have already been here, I watched you walk in, I didn't expect to meet you here again so soon."

Lin Chunxi was skeptical of the words of the woman in black, but there was no need to ask deeply, and he was about to continue to say something to the other party, when he suddenly heard the sound of fighting in several places in the City God Temple, almost at the same time, among which there was even an explosion in the place where the worship supplies were burned, although the sound was not very loud, but in the quiet night, it was particularly harsh.

Lin Chunxi was a little surprised in his heart, knowing that it was a few other people who were doing something with someone, where Tao Ye was when the explosion sounded, the woman in black pulled Lin Chunxi and motioned for him to rush to the accident site as soon as possible, Lin Chunxi didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly performed light skills, jumped out of the courtyard with three vertical and two jumps, the woman in black followed closely and was not left behind, Lin Chunxi paid attention to the other party's movements, from the perspective of her skills, the woman in black must not be an ordinary character in the rivers and lakes, according to her breathing rhythm, she must have been taught by a master, and she is likely to be a cultivator, which makes Lin Chunxi's doubts in his heart even more,

Soon, the two came to the scene of the incident and saw Tao Ye manipulating the three puppets to fight with several black shadows in front of them. It turned out that Tao Ye had just arrived in this place, and smelled a choking burning smell in the air, at the beginning she just thought that this was the residual smell after burning various sacrifices during the day, and didn't care too much, but Tao Ye specialized in practicing puppet tricks, and recently learned a lot of knowledge about drug identification from Luo Yifei, and she quickly noticed the smell of puppet oil in the air, because she was a puppeteer, so she was very sensitive to the smell of oil that played a lubricating role, and she was immediately alert, and when she was about to follow the smell to find something suspicious, suddenly the smell became heavier and heavier, and it came from all directions, She hurriedly stood still and released three puppets from behind, protecting herself in the middle in a vigilant formation.

Suddenly, several black shadows slowly appeared in the darkness, these black shadows came out of nowhere, but they all maintained a posture, motionless, like puppets, if others may be calmed by the strange atmosphere in front of them, but Tao Ye is an expert in puppetry, she knows very well that these things are not people, there is no breath of living people at all, they are all puppets or puppets, since they are peers, Tao Ye's heart of the competition gradually flourished.

Before she could speak, a hoarse voice came out of the darkness, sounding like it hadn't oiled the machinery for a long time, very harsh, "At a young age, you are actually a puppeteer, hehe, I don't know which master of the Ethereal Valley is the disciple, and who is Master Zhou Wenyin?"

Tao Ye thought that listening to this voice for a long time would make his ears feel deaf, he took a deep breath, stabilized his mind, and replied according to the other party's words, "Zhou Shouzao is the family teacher, can you give your name and surname, and go back and tell the teacher which master you met tonight?"

In fact, Tao Ye deliberately said a few more words, in order to delay time as much as possible, firstly, to wait for reinforcements, and secondly, she never judged the other party's position, and vaguely felt that the other party was not a simple character, and did not dare to be careless at all.

The hoarse voice came out again, like a few words of laughter, but it sounded even worse than the screams of the night owl, "Little girl, the words are beautiful, don't carry your master out to bluff me, even if she is present, you have to call my wife a senior, hehe, have you heard of the name of the ghost mother of a thousand sons?"

Tao Ye heard "Thousand Sons and Ghost Mother" These four words, I was shocked, and quickly raised my vigilance, although I don't know the exact identity of the other party, but the name of the Thousand Sons Ghost Mother is known to everyone among all the puppet masters, all those who cultivate puppets will definitely work the puppets, some use poisons, some use hidden weapons, and some value solidity, but everything is inseparable from it, all of them are based on modifying puppets as the main means of cultivation, but this Thousand Sons Ghost Mother is not, she is a puppet after killing a living person, and Miao Nan's Demon Dao puppeteer Guo Shu has a bit of similarities, but this Thousand Sons Ghost Mother's methods are more cruel, she is a puppet made of people alive, and then soaked in a special potion, and then modified and debugged, throughout the process, people are kept awake, the purpose is to ask people to maintain the cultivation attributes of their lives with resentment in extreme pain, so that the puppets made are more aggressive.
