Volume 5: The Mystery of Shamo Chapter 18 There seems to be a dark hand behind this
Just when Ying Lili opened the barrier in an instant, suddenly, an irresistible sense of oppression instantly penetrated her barrier and came from her back, and at the same time, a shocking palm wind approached her shoulder!
Ping Lili's cultivation level was no longer what it had been back then. How could she easily let that palm strike her shoulder? She shifted slightly, taking uncanny steps silently, instantly changing positions several times to avoid the devastating blow. However, her footing remained exactly where it was. With a slight twitch of her fingertips, she swung backhandedly, and a cluster of purple-gold flames suddenly burst forth from her jade-like fingers! Like a spirit snake spitting out its tongue, the purple-gold flames swiftly attacked the attacker!
After the incident with the demon stone, Ying Lili spent several days pondering and practicing, and now he can use the essence of fire in his body with ease!
But at this moment, the owner of the palm wind suddenly changed his direction, and the purple-gold flame missed him. Then, Gong Lili felt that the earth-shattering palm wind came from all directions, like an airtight net, falling down on him!
If it were based on Gong Lili's true ability, it would not be difficult to break this fist wind, but at this moment she was a little hesitant. After all, this was in the court, and her identity was sensitive. If she used those tricks of the Sha Mo wizard at this time, would it be too ostentatious?
At this moment, a streak of lightning jumped up from the ground, slightly breaking the originally invulnerable palm wind. Gong Lili naturally knew who this helper who suddenly jumped out was. At that moment, she also gave it her all, no matter whether it was ostentatious or not, she just wanted to save her life first. There were several lives in this courtyard that depended on her hands, so she quickly moved her hands in front of her chest, leaving a phantom, and hundreds of golden talismans instantly appeared in the air!
With just a light shout from her mouth, the hundreds of talismans flew up and scattered, and golden rays of light shot out from the talismans!
Everything happened in the blink of an eye. With a few crackling sounds, several figures were suddenly knocked away and fell heavily on .
"Sister Lili! Who are they?" A clear voice came hurriedly, but without the timidity and fear that a child of this age should have at this time. The one who just jumped out from the ground to help Gong Lili a lot was Zeze. Although this kid was reincarnated, his kung fu was not worse than before.
But Yinglili herself was also curious. When she had sensed the killing intent, she had originally thought it was Jiang Wu, but she hadn't expected it to be Jiang Wu, but rather several unfamiliar, burly men. Seeing the figures she had instantly knocked flying and lying in the yard in disarray, Yinglili was astonished. Who were these people? Why would they attack her?
Furthermore, how had they broken through the fog cast by the Purple Cloud Beast? Ping Lili had also spent the past few days studying the fog array set by the Purple Cloud Beast Pingping. Without the protection of the demonic energy expelled by the Purple Cloud Beast itself, rashly entering would cause varying degrees of hallucinations, like wandering around in circles in the courtyard as if in a maze. So why hadn't these people been deceived by the illusion?
And looking at their skills, they are not practicing witchcraft or metaphysics, but fighting and physical skills. Could these people be Nayu people?
No, impossible!
Jiang Wu and her two companions Gong Lili had had close contact with them before. In comparison, the Nayu people were much stronger than these people in front of them and could not be compared with them. However, judging from the means they used just now, they were not weak either. Who were they?
At this moment, only a few bangs were heard , and those figures turned into several palm-sized human-shaped talismans in front of Ying Lili's eyes!
Just now, these people were transformed from just a few thin pieces of paper?!
Pinglili reached out to pick up the little paper figures and was about to study them carefully when she heard Tubie's scream coming from the inner room. Pinglili and Zeze looked at each other and almost at the same time ran towards the room where Tubie lived.
When I opened the door, I saw Tu Bie rolling on the ground in pain, muttering, "Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"
Gong Lili was shocked when he heard this, and Qiongqi, who was standing by, saw Gong Lili come in and subconsciously tried to distance himself from the matter: "Master, it wasn't me. I didn't do anything. He suddenly yelled and rolled down!"
Without bothering to listen to Qiongqi's explanation, Yinglili hurried forward to check on Tubie. He saw his face was livid, beads of sweat dripping down his forehead. He was still mumbling, "Don't kill me! There's so much blood! So much blood! It hurts so much! It hurts so much!" He didn't look like he was pretending. What was going on? How could he suddenly become like this?
At that moment, the little paper figures in Yinglili's hands suddenly came to life, flying out from her palms and heading towards Tubie's back. Seeing that things were not going well, Yinglili almost subconsciously activated the Fire Essence within her body. Just as the little paper figures were fingertips suddenly turned them to ashes!
What was strange was that when the paper man was burned to ashes, one could still seem to hear a squeaking sound of pain!
However, it soon turned into ashes. Ying Lili breathed a sigh of relief. It was a close call. Although he didn't know what those little paper figures were intending, judging from their appearance, they must have had ulterior motives. But why would they attack the country bumpkin?
At this moment, Tubie suddenly stopped rolling. He stared at the pile of ashes in front of him with wide eyes, his face full of horror. His mind seemed a little hazy, and he kept muttering, "Fairy, they want to kill me! There are so many people, they want to kill me! I saw a lot of blood, the ground is covered with blood, many people are dead, and there are still many people chasing me to kill me!"
What's going on? Pinglili and Zeze exchanged a glance. Could it be that these paper figures are coming for Tubie?
But who was it that wanted to attack Tu Bie? If they were targeting Gong Lili, that would make sense, but Tu Bie had just emerged from the mountains, so he shouldn't have any enemies. Suddenly, Gong Lili thought of the Taoist priest in green. Could it be him? But from what he had said before, he seemed to be defending Tu Bie. What was going on?
At this moment, Zeze exclaimed, "Sister Lili, look!"
Ping Lili looked in the direction of Ze Ze's finger and discovered that there was a strange light flashing on Tu Bie's back!
Yinglili's brow furrowed. She remembered that the paper figures hadn't touched his back. What had happened? Without time to dwell on it, she stepped forward and yanked open Tubie's clothes. What appeared before her was a blinding haze. It was a chaotic and extremely blurry pattern, pure white, covering Tubie's entire back, with faint golden embellishments. But because the pattern was so blurry, Yinglili couldn't make out anything for a long time.
At this time, Zeze and Qiongqi also came forward. They also looked at it for a long time but couldn't figure out what it was. Pinglili pondered and gently stretched out his hand to touch the pattern. As soon as his hand touched Tubie's back, he suddenly retracted it. Pinglili gently stroked his fingertips which were slightly tingling and numb, feeling a little surprised. The feeling just now was as if he was bitten by something!
I really don’t know what’s on this guy’s back?
Pinglili suddenly felt that this country bumpkin might be hiding many unknown secrets. Thinking of Mo Yi's attitude towards the country bumpkin and the mysterious Taoist priest in green clothes whom he had met before, Pinglili decided to wait for Mo Yi to come back and interrogate him thoroughly. He must know something.
At this time, Zeze studied the pile of burnt paper on the ground for a while, frowned and thought for a while, then said to Ying Lili, "Sister Lili, I think these paper people are probably controlled by witchcraft. The person behind the manipulation is probably not far away."
Gong Lili nodded and sighed deeply. She originally thought that the only person she had to guard against was Jiang Wu. Jiang Wu alone was enough to give her a headache. She didn't expect that there was a mysterious person who wanted to attack Tu Bie. She suddenly felt that she had a heavy responsibility at this moment.
She gathered her thoughts and fumbled around in her bosom, pulling out a few bamboo sticks she had asked Yan Zheng for earlier. With a flick of her left hand, the sticks began to spin slowly like a revolving lantern. At this point, she could only hear herself muttering something, while her right hand formed the Heart Questioning Technique and her left hand formed the Sky Fingering Technique. Faint images began to flow on the spinning sticks...
This is a mysterious skill that Gong Lili learned from Yao Ji. Its function is actually similar to the Life Art, but its effect is several times stronger than the Life Art. It can replay all the people and events that have appeared within a few miles.
Because of the magic sign, he had never used it. Later, when he met Yan Zheng again, he secretly asked Yan Zheng for some talismans and props commonly used by the Sha Mo wizard. He didn't expect that they would come in handy at this time.
After carefully checking and calculating with the divine sign, the conclusion made Gong Lili even more surprised. Not only did he not find any suspicious person behind the scenes, he couldn't even find any trace of Jiang Wu!
How is this possible! Why did Jiang Wu also suddenly disappear?
Is there something wrong with the divine signature Yan Zheng gave me? Or is it because I'm not good enough at learning the skills?
So he quickly calculated again using the Life Secret Technique, and the conclusion he came to was the same. Not only was there no trace of any suspicious people near the inn, even Jiang Wu had disappeared inexplicably!
