"In the fourteenth year of Changping, a mirage stood for a long night, monsters appeared on a large scale, and many houses on Qixia Street in Huncheng were destroyed. Fortunately, no one was injured..."
In the government office, the Huncheng city guard was receiving two guests from Yuyuan Academy.
They are a man and a woman.
The man in black clothes with a sword hanging from his waist frowned deeply as he looked at the dossier records.
The Huncheng town guard smiled and said: "It's strange to say that these monsters seemed to appear out of thin air, and they were all in Qixia Street. Because the incident happened suddenly, when we arrived, we found that the monsters were all frozen in place, and we had not encountered them at all. Any resistance and we will get rid of them all.”
There are big problems here.
Another woman in a white dress said softly: "Senior Brother Su, we have to go to Qixia Street to check again."
According to records in ancient books, when immortals come to the world, they are always accompanied by visions.
According to rumors, there was an immortal in the capital of the Sui Dynasty.
There is a vision of a "mirage" coming to Hun City, and a group of monsters that have been rare in decades are attacking, all of which are very similar to the scenes described in ancient books.
They were ordered to come here. If they could find another immortal, it would be a great achievement.
...
At the intersection of Qixia Street, a wicker chair is placed unexpectedly.
Jiang Wang was lying on it. Although his face was as beautiful as a fine sculpture, it was very pale and looked terminally ill.
There was a one-armed man squatting next to him, tidying up the paintings in front of him, muttering incessantly, "If you're sick, just stay at home. If you have to run out, what should you do if another monster comes out?"
Jiang Wangzheng was scanning the pedestrians on the road with a searching look. Hearing this, he thought to himself: Yes, why hasn't the monster come yet?
"The governor's office is everywhere preaching about the achievements of slaying monsters, but I think there must be monks who were rumored to have taken action, but they just didn't show up. Otherwise, how could monsters that are obviously very vicious suddenly freeze in place and be slaughtered?"
Jiang Wang hesitated: "I want to say that the monster is controlled by me. Do you believe it or not?"
Zhao Si turned to look at Jiang Wang, "Do you think I believe it?"
Knew it.
This is indeed something difficult to believe.
In fact, even Jiang Wang himself thought it might be an illusion.
But it is a fact that monsters appear in Qixia Street.
Two days ago, he just reached the crown.
The old housekeeper took out a knife that was said to have been picked up by his father through many hardships and gave it to him as a gift.
When he came into contact with the knife, a 'mirage' hidden in the clouds suddenly appeared in his mind.
Before he could figure out what was going on, countless monsters appeared in Qixia Street.
When the monster Zhu Yong, who had four big eyes, eighteen long legs, and was about two feet tall and looked like a spider, swarmed in front of him.
Jiang Wang had only one thought in his mind.
Don't come over here!
Then.
The monsters really all stopped.
He finally guessed it had something to do with the knife.
The fact that Dad went through many hardships to pick up a knife is outrageous in itself.
He felt that this knife must be of great origin.
But I didn't get any useful information from the old housekeeper.
Although it is very immoral to expect monsters to attack Huncheng again, to prove whether you can control monsters, you have to encounter monsters again.
He now looks at every pedestrian on the road like a monster.
However, it turns out that there is not even a monster hair.
At this time, there was the sound of horse hooves.
A man and a woman dressed in black and white, riding two tall horses, came slowly.
The woman in the white dress reined in her horse and stopped in front of the wicker chair. She looked down at Jiang Wang and said mockingly: "Isn't this the little Marquis? We haven't seen him for several years, but he has so quickly ruined the Marquis' family fortune and is reduced to selling paintings on the street? "
"I am now enrolled in Yuyuan Academy, and I may even have the opportunity to meet the saint directly in the future. You must regret your original choice, right?"
Jiang Wang glanced sideways and ignored him, thinking that the monster might not come today.
In the past, there were indeed no monsters frequently appearing in Hun City. A situation like the one two days ago was rare in the entire Sui Kingdom for decades.
Thinking of this, he felt a little melancholy.
The woman in the white dress froze.
What did his look mean just now?
Is it a provocation?
Or do you simply look down on me? !
Scenes from the past came to mind.
This was Jiang Wang's attitude when he first met him at the Hou Mansion two years ago.
Back then, the Du family had a high profile in the Marquis Mansion, so it was fine to be looked down upon.
Now that I have come into contact with a wider world, my status and status are different from those in the past. Why do you still dare to look at me like this?
Du Yanruo said again with a cold face: "Look at your half-dead appearance. No matter how good-looking you are, it's of no use. When the monster Zhuan Yong appeared on Qixia Street, why didn't he kill you? I think you were also scared at that time. It was so tragic, it’s a pity that I couldn’t see that scene with my own eyes.”
Jiang Wang finally couldn't help but look at Du Yanruo, "Who are you?"
His attitude remained lazy and casual.
He just felt that this woman suddenly blocked his sight and muttered a lot of words, which was simply inexplicable.
Du Yanruo's face turned ugly.
The man in black looked thoughtful when he saw this scene.
Two years ago, he followed his teacher Cai Tanggu through Huncheng and met Junior Sister Du who was alone in the bamboo forest outside the city.
Because Cai Tanggu noticed that the junior sister had some qualifications, he wanted to bring her back to Yuyuan Academy.
When I visited the Du family, I learned that the Du family wanted to betroth the junior sister to the young prince of the Huncheng Marquis Mansion, but was rejected, so the junior sister ran out of the city in shame and anger.
Although without the rejection of the young marquis, the junior sister would not have the chance to enter Yuyuan Academy, but the man in black also wanted to help the junior sister vent her anger at this moment.
He smiled.
Deliberately photographing the horse forward, the horse's front hooves trampled the stall, and the paintings were all damaged.
Zhao Si's face darkened.
Jiang Wang frowned.
I wonder if Zhao Si has offended someone?
I just wanted to tell Zhao Si to stay away from me, so as not to harm Chi Yu.
Then the man in black suddenly drew his sword out of its sheath.
Looking at the tip of the sword in front of him, Jiang Wang was speechless.
"You pointed the finger at the wrong person. Every wrong has its own owner. Although I am with this painter, we are not familiar with each other at all. I have not offended you."
Zhao Si's face turned even darker and he said, "They are obviously not targeting me!"
Jiang Wang didn't understand.
He was sick since he was born. It can be said that his body was in a state of being hollowed out all day long.
Before I got my crown, I rarely stepped out of the house, so it was impossible to offend anyone?
The man in black said calmly: "If a young prince in a down-and-out prince's mansion doesn't know how to assess the situation, he will be beaten to death sooner or later."
Du Yanruo said: "Senior Brother Su, we can't argue with this kind of person. In my eyes, the current Xunyang Hou Mansion is just a bigger grasshopper. Talking to him would be an insult to our status." .”
Su Lingyi pointed his sword at Jiang Wang and said, "Junior sister, please don't get your hands dirty. Senior brother can help you vent your anger."
Du Yanruo didn't say anything else, just watched indifferently.
Thinking that Jiang Wang must be pretending not to recognize him, maybe he understands the change in their identities and is just covering up his so-called self-esteem.
The sword edge trembled slightly, and an inexplicable aura burst out.
Jiang Wang felt a strong sense of suffocation.
"I'm here to bask in the sun, but as soon as you come here, you talk to yourself and even kill me. That's too much!"
Du Yanruo felt the need to tear apart Jiang Wang's disguise and said coldly: "I am Du Yanruo from the Du family in Huncheng. How dare you say you don't recognize me?"
Jiang Wang suddenly said: "It turns out to be you."
It really looks like it.
Seeing Jiang Wang's expression, Du Yanruo felt angry again.
I was about to ask Senior Brother Su to teach him a lesson, but I found that something was wrong with Senior Brother Su at this moment.
The aura that originally emanated from the sword's edge had dissipated at some point.
Su Lingyi maintained the posture of holding the sword, with cold sweat falling from his forehead.
He stared closely at Jiang Wang in front of him, "What did you do?"
Jiang Wang was slightly startled.
It seemed like he remembered something.
He patted Zhao Si on the shoulder and motioned for him to hand over the stones on the ground.
Then, he threw the pebble directly at Su Lingyi's face.
The corners of Su Lingyi's mouth twitched, and anger surged from her eyes, but her body showed no other reaction.
Jiang Wang murmured: "Could it be possible that I can still control people's bodies?"
Zhao Si heard the words and looked thoughtful.
Controlling people's bodies?
The corners of his mouth gradually curved.
Jiang Wang looked sideways at him and said, "Although you didn't say anything, judging from your expression, you must be thinking about something dirty."
Zhao Si hurriedly wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and retorted sternly: "I am a painter and have read the Four Books and Five Classics. My thoughts are absolutely righteous. Don't judge me as a gentleman with your dirty heart!"
Jiang Wang was too lazy to talk to Zhao Si.
He's a little excited now.
If you observe carefully, you can feel some slight burning sensation around you. Although it is weak, it is real, and the range is just covering Su Lingyi.
But if you want to fully understand it, you need to verify it several times.
Jiang Wang was still sitting on the wicker chair, but he leaned forward, looked at Su Lingyi, and raised his fingers provocatively, "Hit me."
Su Lingyi was furious.
The hand holding the sword had veins popping out.
He tried with all his strength to move forward.
But to no avail.
He gradually became frightened.
This is very abnormal.
Could it be that the young prince of Huncheng is also a monk?
And he is also a very powerful person?
Su Lingyi looked pale and was sweating profusely.
Du Yanruo looked at the calm and even provocative Jiang Wang at this time, turned his attention away from Su Lingyi, and without thinking too much, said in a deep voice: "Senior Brother Su is already a monk with half a foot across the threshold. By behaving like this, you are really seeking death."
Jiang Wang smiled and said, "You'd better let him kill me quickly, but I don't think he has that ability."
"Senior Brother Su." Du Yanruo was very angry and said to Su Lingyi: "With our status, even if we kill him, no one will dare to say anything. You don't have to have any worries."
Su Lingyi hesitated to speak.
Looking at Jiang Wang with a smile, the fear in his heart kept growing.
I thought to myself.
Just shut up!
