The old man walked slowly towards the house on crutches. At this moment, he saw a strange young man walking in this direction.
The old man couldn't see clearly and said: "Master, are you here with Master Lin Fan? It's so late, why haven't you rested yet?"
The man had disdain on his face, and his tone was full of ridicule, and said: "Old patriarch, I haven't seen you for many years, but you have completely forgotten what I said."
"I said that you people here are not allowed to go out even half a step. Although that barrier is just a cover, it is also my order!"
"You dare to disobey my orders and try to leave this place. You are even planning to leave here. Naturally, I am here to stop you!"
Thinking of this, the old man was shocked and said: "You are the monster!"
The old man will never forget such a familiar voice.
As the man said, this was a rule many years ago when the old man knelt on the ground and begged the monster to let go of their village.
When Lin Fan came here, the old man thought they would be free again, but he never expected that this monster would come so quickly.
The man placed the bronze mirror in front of the old man and said, "Anyone who betrays me will not have a good ending. You can atone for your sins here forever!"
"Ah!" The old man screamed, and then he was trapped in the world in the mirror by the power of the mirror.
"Next, it's my turn to perform!" After saying this, the man transformed into an old man and walked towards the courtyard where Lin Fan lived.
This mirror is a magic weapon and a prison. Anyone locked in the mirror will become a monster. He can also change into any person in the mirror at will and replace the other person's life.
The mirror also has another function, which is to absorb all the monster's evil spirit, so that others will not notice his true identity and whereabouts.
In this way, no matter where the monster goes or who it comes to, the other person will not be on guard.
For hundreds of years, he has never failed once, which is also the monster's greatest confidence!
Yue Lingxiao was in a daze, feeling like someone was calling his name, so she got up.
"Lin Fan, is that you?" Yue Lingxiao asked, but no one answered.
Yue Lingxiao felt a little confused and whispered, "Did I hear wrongly?"
At this moment, an old man opened the door and walked in. He leaned on a cane and said with a smile: "Master Yue, can you do me a favor?"
After Yue Lingxiao stood up, she said with a smile: "Grandpa, I remember you. You are the old patriarch of this place. How can I help you?"
The old man took out a bronze mirror and said, "I have a broken mirror here. It was given to me by a close friend of mine. You have great magical powers. Can you restore this mirror to its original appearance?"
The smile on Yue Lingxiao's face did not change and she said: "This is just a trivial matter. There is no problem. Grandpa, please give me this mirror."
"Okay, you have to look carefully!"
Yue Lingxiao didn't notice the calculation in the old man's eyes, so he took the mirror over.
When his figure appeared in the mirror, Yue Lingxiao suddenly felt that there was a strong spiritual force that was bringing him into the mirror, and then she realized that something was wrong.
At this time, Yue Lingxiao looked at the old man again, who had regained his youthful appearance, and sneered: "I thought the people who protect ancient things are so powerful, but they are nothing more than this!"
Yue Lingxiao was shocked and said, "Who are you?"
The young man said coldly: "You are not qualified to know, and there is no need to know! Isn't your biggest wish to become a big monster? Just practice in the mirror!"
Before he finished speaking, Yue Lingxiao was taken directly into the mirror, and the young man was the only one left in this large room.
"Next, the real show is about to begin!" After saying this, the young man transformed into Yue Lingxiao again and walked out.
The young man's goal was only Lin Fan from beginning to end. To him, this nine-tailed fox was just a minion. Trapping this man in the mirror was just a matter of convenience.
Soon, the fake Yue Lingxiao came to the courtyard and said with a smile: "Lin Fan, Shui Ruoqing, you are indeed in this place."
"The old patriarch came to see me just now and told us to go back to the house first. There will be a heavy rain here soon, so we must be careful."
Shui Ruoqing was stunned for a moment and said, "Yue Lingxiao, aren't you resting in the house? You never meddle in other people's business, why are you so unusual today?"
The fake Yue Lingxiao looked a little unnatural and said, "I just had a nightmare and woke up, so I thought about going out for a walk."
"There are many strange things about this place. I guess you must be looking for those clues, so I am here to help you."
The purpose of the monster is very simple, which is to deal with the two people in front of him separately, so that he can be more confident.
He didn't have any great abilities to begin with, and the only thing he could rely on was this bronze mirror. If they really fought, he might not be the opponent of these two people.
At this time, Shui Ruoqing always felt that something was wrong with the person in front of him, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
In desperation, Shui Ruoqing had no choice but to say: "Well, Lin Fan just said that we will leave here after the rain stops, and it is time to find the whereabouts of the next chess piece."
"Chess piece!" The fake Yue Lingxiao was very moved, and her fierce gaze no longer had any cover, and all of this was seen by Lin Fan.
Lin Fan's tone was full of disdain, and he said: "Yue Lingxiao, you once said that your brother is nearby, when will you let us meet him?"
Hearing this, Yue Lingxiao was a little confused, and then said: "When I have time, I will naturally write to my brother."
The monster didn't dare to say more than necessary, always worried that the two people would see the clues. Little did they know that just such a sentence had already let Lin Fan and Shui Ruoqing know his true identity.
Shui Ruoqing reacted, summoned the divine sword, and said sternly: "No wonder the people here keep saying there are monsters, but I didn't notice any monster energy. It turns out to be you!"
"Just now I felt that something was wrong. Yue Lingxiao is a nine-tailed spirit fox, and he also has some demonic aura. You have hidden all these demonic auras, which further proves that you are not Yue Lingxiao at all!"
"Besides, there is another thing you don't know. In a disaster that year, the rest of the Yue Lingxiao clan passed away to bliss, and he was the only one still alive in the world."
"He is the only eldest son of the nine-tailed spirit fox clan. There is no other brother! Monster, take over!"
Shui Ruoqing said nothing else and used the power of the sword to attack directly in the direction of the monster.
