As if to cover up his embarrassment, Han Chang immediately changed the subject and said to Yingyue Jun:
"That's not right. You have money to buy cloth and find a tailor...why don't you have money to buy onmyoji stuff?"
"After all, you are looking for someone by yourselves. Of course you have to shoulder the corresponding responsibilities." Yingyue Jun rolled her eyes, picked up the cloth beside her and stood up, "Okay, without further ado, let's set off quickly. Yes. I passed a shop when I came here, and there were many useful things in it..."
The remaining four people look at me and I look at you, and they all feel that Mr. Yingyue is really not reliable. But having said that, maybe she really has something to do? The top priority is indeed to ensure that Ling Huan is safe and sound. Five people walked out of the teahouse one after another and came to the street. Although it was already afternoon, the weather still showed no signs of cooling down.
It is unexpected to encounter such impermanence. However, a bigger surprise caught several people off guard.
"Crack!"
Before he had taken two steps, a sharp weapon suddenly penetrated Yingyue Jun's chest. The tip of the sharp weapon penetrated Xie Zhe's clothes and poked his abdomen, causing a weak sting to spread like electricity.
He was stunned.
Xie Zhe took a step back. The sharp weapon only pierced the material of his clothes, but it didn't really hurt him. Several people behind him heard the sudden noise and saw Xie Zhe's reaction, so they immediately rushed forward to check. There were not many people on the street at this moment, and people's attention was attracted. But because the scene was too dangerous, everyone kept a distance from them.
"Are you okay?!"
Jiaomo and Wenying immediately stepped forward and leaned down to do something. Han Zhang and Xie Zhe looked at each other, feeling that everything was too strange. Ying Yuejun knelt on the ground, her whole body trembling slightly. She stretched out her hands, grasped the half of the sharp weapon exposed on her chest, and pulled it out with all her strength. Xie Zhe had no idea what it was, but it must be some kind of weapon. It is very long, both ends are very sharp, and it is plated with brilliant fire colors, which are colorful in the sun.
But... strangely, there was no trace of bright red blood on the part of the weapon that passed through Yingyue Jun's body.
"It's really weird...the sound just now was not right," Hanshang was still rational, "Is that the sound of bones?"
Han Chang, who seems to have experience in breaking whose bones have been broken for hundreds of years, made this comment. Didn’t Yingyuejun say that before? This body is not a human body in the traditional sense. So, what will it be? But no matter what, it is unreasonable for the two of them to remain indifferent under the crowd.
But at this moment, a man walked straight into the open space that had been given way by pedestrians. This man was dressed luxuriously and walked with wind, striding towards Lord Yingyue. This outfit and this weather really make people wonder if he is hot or not? I'm afraid only those from a distinguished family who can enjoy the cool weather wherever they go would dare to go out wearing this outfit. Xie Zhe noticed that his sharp brows were clearly filled with anger. There was also a weapon in his hand, which was clearly the same as the one that impaled Yingyue Jun.
"Who are you--"
Before Yingyue Jun finished speaking, the man raised his wrist and completely shattered her upper body with one blow. He moved so fast that no one saw clearly how the weapon in his hand smashed her from the side, and all they saw were pottery shards flying in the air. They fell to the ground with a crash, leaving only half of their hollow bodies, with uneven waist sections. The man stretched out his hand and took back the other weapon. Now Xie Zhe understood that these weapons were water-splitting thorns, which were not something ordinary people could use.
"W-who are you?"
"Everyone has seen it!" This person did not pay attention to them, but spread his hands and explained to the surprised onlookers, "This is a puppet who commits evil, mixed among ordinary people, and does not know what evil he wants to do. ! The power behind the puppet has gone so deep, and you are not even aware of it! Go, tell your yamen, tell your county magistrate, step up your manpower, don't let the bad guys take advantage of the loopholes! This kind of thing is pervasive, wait until something goes wrong. No matter what, it’s too late!”
The people watching were confused. You looked at me, I looked at you, but they didn’t react for a moment. It wasn't until a police officer not far away came to chase them away that everyone dispersed. When we left, everyone was talking about it. I believe that this matter will be known to everyone soon. The policeman said something to the man and left quickly. He must be some kind of powerful person. But what is going on? While he spoke to the detective, all four crouched down to consider the debris on the ground. Wen Ying picked up a piece that looked like it could correspond to the broken part. As soon as he inserted it, he dropped it again and broke it even more. The new red cloth she bought spread out on the ground, like a square pool of blood.
"My dear fellow, you are not very kind."
After the catcher walked away, Han Chang stood up and faced the man unceremoniously.
"I'm helping you because I'm afraid you'll fall for a monster."
He spoke slowly, with an indescribable arrogance in his tone. Han Chang frowned even more tightly and restrained himself for a long time before grabbing his collar out of impulsiveness. It seems that this piece of cloth is quite valuable. If it is torn, there is no real money that can be used to compensate.
"This is the impermanence of the Six Paths!" Wenying jumped in anger, "Looking at your arrogance, I would have thought you were an onmyoji with great dignity! In the final analysis, aren't you just a monster? What's your air?"
Wenying was right, he was indeed a real monster. Although he deliberately hid his aura from everyone present, he did not hide it from the four of them. The man whose identity was revealed was not angry, and just said calmly:
"Six Paths of Impermanence will not lie to others?"
Several people had just built up trust in Lord Yingyue, but this monster suddenly attacked them and made a panic-inducing speech. No matter how they thought about it, it was unacceptable. No matter what, Yingyue Jun was originally going to solve the problem for them.
"She just promised us to lead us to find the whereabouts of our friends, but you ruined our hope just like this. Just now you said that the six paths of impermanence can also deceive people. This proves her identity in disguise - she is indeed an impermanent person. , but you dare to take action against her."
Jiao Mo criticized harshly. At times like this, she could always retract her previous gentleness in time and put on an unquestionable look, which even Hanshang and the others were in awe of. The monster looked her up and down, frowned, and laughed contemptuously.
"Ha! Am I wrong, or is there something wrong with your ears? Look at these fragments on the ground. You should know exactly what she is, right? Among the forces related to puppets in the world today, which one is a gentleman? The Wuyong clan is notorious enough. Zhaozhuo, you don’t know, right?”
This is not wrong. They lowered their heads, looked at the broken pieces, and were speechless for a moment. On the one hand, what the monster said was not wrong. Dolls are dangerous existences, and their threat level is no less than those scurrying living corpses. And they currently know that the only person who has many puppets is the Evil Angel. But on the other hand, how could Zai Wuchang get involved with the evil angel? She cooperated with the evil angel and worked for the monster. Didn't she violate her mission? A few people really haven't figured this out.
"But what is she trying to do? How could the Six Paths of Impermanence hurt people for no reason?" Xie Zhe was puzzled.
"The devil knows." The monster withdrew the water thorn and said lazily, "I only know that this bastard hurt my important person."
Having said that, it seemed that he didn't want to waste time on these people. He waved his long cloak and turned around,
Wenying hugged her shoulders and stepped forward not to be outdone, confronting him tit for tat: "The people she can hurt are probably just a scourge. Could it be that she punished bad monsters who are as bad to humans as you? Do you hold a grudge?"
When he said this, he suddenly stopped, and his whole cloak trembled slightly. Wenying herself was not a vicious type, but she only dared to say harsh words because she had the support of her brother. But that monster... looks very cautious. It looked like his skills were not easy to deal with just now, so she and her brother couldn't beat him, right? However, Wenying only wavered for a moment and immediately stood up straight. What are you afraid of? There are four of them, so they are not afraid of him alone.
The monster turned around suddenly and actually laughed angrily.
"Hahaha! Monsters? How ridiculous. There seems to be only one serious human among you, right? How did you say such a thing? After living in the world for a long time, you don't really think that you are one of them. One of them, right? Except for the impermanent ones, human beings are all greedy and untrustworthy! What if I tell you that the one the bastard injured just now was another Six Paths Impermanent?"
Wenying was choked by these words. She was not the only one who was choked, the other three also looked surprised. Xie Zhe immediately stepped forward to block his way with a firm attitude.
"Please explain this to us clearly. We don't want our hopes to be ignited in a confused way, and we don't want to be poured cold water on for no reason. I hope you understand."
Jiao Mo also walked aside, stopped him from the side, and softened his tone.
"Similarly, we will also make it clear to you. I think this is the respect we should have for each other."
The monster still didn't seem to want to waste time with them.
"Why? I don't have time to be delayed by you. What I just broke was just her temporary container. She had already fled back to the world of nothingness. It will not be that simple for me to meet her again. If you are enough If you know the truth, don't block the way. Is it possible that you still want to be rude to me?"
"...If you insist on doing this, I really can't be polite to you."
After saying that, Xie Zhe moved his hand to Fengyun Zhan's scabbard. The blade of the sword was hidden by the hem of his clothes, and the monster didn't take a good look at him before. Now, the monster noticed the sword, raised his eyebrows slightly, and suddenly asked:
"Wait a minute. This sword of yours is the Heavenly Sword Fengyun Slash?"
"I guess you are sensible." Han Chang took a step forward to his sister and said to him coldly, "If you are sensible enough, just do as he says. He has already been very polite to you. It is common sense for military strategists to be polite before attacking. "
The monster raised his chin, turned around and looked at Xie Zhe for a while.
"Hmm... No wonder you, a mere human, can get along with monsters."
