Chapter 20: That's the Heart of the Devil
Seeing the doubts on the faces of his colleagues, Li Zhi opened his mouth to explain, "His appearance was expected by me, since it has been determined in advance that the other party is acting in the form of a team, plus they can always accurately judge where our people are, the huge Chang'an City is not enough to just try their luck, so someone is responsible for their investigation." ”
"Correspondingly, they must also have some people who have similar duties to our Zhen'an Division's Xuanwu Guard, who are responsible for cleaning up the aftermath and passing on information. ”
"If the opponent is so thoughtful, he even has set up such a strict system to deal with the Zhen'an Division, and he is fully prepared not to let the information leak. Then it is absolutely impossible to miss this person, such a link!"
"So it's useless for us to send the ghost hound to chase him, he will definitely be executed by his own people, and it will be impossible for him to return to the place he came from alive. ”
Early the next morning, the falconers of the Zhen'an Division found the man's body a few blocks away from the site of the previous night's encounter. The man's face was slashed by a knife, and if it weren't for the huge wound on the shoulder, it would have been difficult to identify the body from the same person he met yesterday.
When the corpse was brought back to the Zhen'an Division, and everyone stood in front of the corpse, the captain of the ghost slaying school who was with him yesterday said with emotion, "Li Zhi, you are really a god, this is all for you." "But it's a pity that the clue is broken. "And then again..."
"No, the trail continues!"
"What do you say?" the ghost slayer captain looked puzzled.
"Next, they're going to find me. "Li Zhi is very calm and confident.
"Why?"
"If you're a hunter, what will you do if your prey resists?"
"Uh... How to tear it apart, if it were me, I would probably give the prey another fatal wound, and if I die, I won't be able to resist. Huh, what do you mean?"
"Yes, whether it's for insurance or absolute conceit, they'll definitely give me another attempt to make sure I don't resist anymore so that my plan can go ahead!"
One night shortly after the incident, Li Zhi was hunting ghosts alone. After a fight, I really have to stay and check if the ghost is dead. Five figures fell from the sky, four of them were clearly well-trained and cooperative. clamped Li Zhi's limbs respectively, and when Li Zhi couldn't do it, one person stabbed Li Zhi in the chest with a knife, and didn't forget to stir the handle of the knife to ensure that Li Zhi was dead.
"What should I do?" After Li Zhi fell, one of them whispered to the leader of the group.
"What to do, of course, the strong one is to bring it back. ”
"Do you want to pack it separately? ”
"Are you an idiot? How many times have you said it, separately, nutrition is not so good. Take this one back. ”
"Yes!"
"But this guy is an idiot too... How dare you hold it up so much...."
Li Zhi's "corpse" was disposed of haphazardly in a hall in a certain museum.
As soon as the few people in charge of hunting Li Zhi left, a mellow and elegant voice sounded in the hall, "Get up, don't play dead." ”
was discovered. In this case, Li Zhi didn't bother to disguise anymore, turned over and got up, and in the sparkling lights thrown in from the window, he roughly saw the appearance of this person, this is a man with a cloak and a disheveled head, but even with such a faint light, he can see that this is a man with a beautiful face like a woman.
"How do you know?" After stiffening for too long, Li Zhi stretched his waist greatly and casually looked at the furnishings in the surrounding pavilion.
The furnishings in the museum are rich, the decoration is luxurious, and the decoration is a restaurant. With such a rich and luxurious restaurant, Chang'an City is afraid that there is no other one, only Xiaoxiang Pavilion.
"It's a very soft voice, but my ears are so good that I can still hear your heartbeat. The man tilted his head sideways and pointed to his ear.
"Then you can rest assured that they will let me in?"
"After all, it's curious, after such a fatal injury, you should definitely die. "Besides, you're going to die. ”
"Do you ghosts like to talk so much?"
"Hahaha. This burst out of hearty laughter for the man, and strangely, it was not heroic, but it set off him a little refreshing. "If you think about it, you still have some truth in what you said. "But I'm not talking big. ”
"I'm not going to let you die so soon, I have a lot to say about you. Li Zhi took out a short knife from his boots, his own ghost slashing knife, I don't know where it was put by those people, but fortunately, it has its own smell on it, and when the time comes, let the ghost hound help find it.
"Then let me be honest, you can't defeat me, because I'm already far on the road to heaven. "The man's robe was windless. The breath is changing.
Li Zhi has never met such a difficult opponent, and every move he uses, the opponent can imitate it in the same way, it is like he is fighting with himself.
What's even more terrifying is that the other party is a ghost, and he also has a strong recovery ability, and sometimes, even if he fights with the idea of losing both, he can't tell the result. At most, both sides fell to the ground to recover, and depending on the recovery situation, the other party's recovery ability is even higher than their own. If the other party's injuries can be better recovered in the same time, in the long run, their old injuries will continue to accumulate and they will only die.
"What's wrong with you? You look like you're in a hurry. The man's voice was as nice as ever, but full of teasing.
Yes, you can't be in a hurry, Li Zhi heard this, but he stopped and gave up blindly attacking.
When the man saw such an unexpected scene, he also stopped and looked at Li Zhi with curiosity on his face. Compared with Li Zhi's panting at the moment, he was relaxed. It seems that imitating Li Zhi's tricks is nothing more than an easy thing for him. What's more, recovering the trauma caused by Li Zhi to him is not difficult at all for a big ghost like him. It was a game of cat teasing the mouse that had been caught, and all he had to do now was see what else Li Zhi could bring him.
"Is this your ability?" "It seems that the big ghosts above the thousand eyes have their own unique abilities. "And although I don't know what the path to heaven you are talking about, as far as I have encountered before, the ghosts who have opened the path to heaven probably have more than one ability. ”
"You're guessing pretty much the same, but there's one thing wrong. Although I have started the path to heaven, I still only have one ability, and I cannot 'give' or 'cultivate' this ability. This ghost patiently corrected the mistakes in Li Zhi's words, and he was really a very strange ghost.
"Can you imitate any trick?" Li Zhi continued to throw.
"That's right, I can learn any trick, and I can do better on top of that! I can even imitate the ability of ghosts! This is my unique ability. "I have to say, you are also very strong, obviously, I have strengthened every move, you can actually keep up with my strength immediately, you continue to become stronger in actual combat." Humans like you are a nuisance and must be eliminated. ”
"Is that so... Then you still talk so much to me. ”
"Hahaha, you're weird and funny anyway, not to mention that you're going to die, what's the harm in talking to someone who is about to die?"
"Autumn Moon!" "Second Moon!" "Two Moons" Two bright moons, blooming brightly. Li Zhi was taken by surprise and made two moves in a row.
The man dodged the vital point, and the severed shoulder was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye. "Humans are despicable. "Let you take a good look": "Heavenly Autumn Moon", "Second Round Moon"! Two brighter bright moons rise. And that's not all!
"Three rounds of moon!"
"Four Moons!"
"Five Rounds of Moon!"
......
"Twenty-four bridges and bright moon!"
A full twenty-four bright moons appeared in the hall, almost leaving people with nowhere to stay. The dazzling brilliance makes people look at the bright stars and be in the vast universe.
Li Zhi was covered in bruises. "Can you imitate that?"
"Do you have any new tricks? If not, it's time to send you on your way. The gentle voice sounded so chilling.
It was also in just a few breaths that Li Zhi recovered to the point where he could hold a knife.
In the man's somewhat surprised eyes, Li Zhi spoke, "It seems like learning to be like, but thanks to you just made so many moves, it also made me see that there are some things you still can't learn." ”
"What do you say, is there anything I can't imitate?"
"You can't learn that kind of mind. "The grass changes color, and the wood falls off its leaves. Ghosts must be killed, and everything can be broken. Therefore, the destruction of scattered is the aftermath of its anger. "The knife handed down by Lao Wang has the intention of making endless decisions with ghosts. ”
"What are you talking about?" the anger in his voice was even stronger.
"Ghosts, killing, things are too prosperous and should be killed. "You demons are mortal things. ”
"I know I'm going to die, so I say so much to delay time? "The sword light shows.
"Don't you understand all that? I'll show it to you myself. Li Zhi stood there, holding the short knife, closed his eyes, regardless of the chaotic knife light falling on his body, and let his blood flow. Just breathe quietly and feel something. When I opened my eyes again, the person holding the knife was clearly no longer the same person as before. Something was awakened.
Simply swinging the knife, a person and a ghost passed by, and the man's hand holding the knife fell.
"What kind of trick was that? How could it be? How could there be a knife I couldn't imitate!" The voice was full of disbelief, but more of fear.
"That's the heart of the ghost!"
