Although my knife changed direction midway, I didn't put the knife away and then pass it out again. No matter how I counted it, it was just one knife. The butler was deliberately looking for trouble.
The housekeeper smiled sinisterly and said, "You have violated the rules of Luoye Manor for the second time. No one can save you."
The housekeeper stood three meters away from me and reached out to grab me. At that moment, I felt that the housekeeper's palm expanded several times and covered the top of my head, blocking out the sky and the sun.
I raised my hands upward, and the cold light transformed from the five sleeve arrows flew towards the opponent at the same time. As a result, they were all slapped to the ground by the opponent's palm.
I watched helplessly as the opponent's palm pressed against the top of my head. A strong wind with a harsh and strange sound rushed past me. At the same time, someone grabbed my shoulder and pushed me away.
When I stood firm, I saw Ye Sanqi's motionless back blocking my way. At this time, a white jade horizontal flute appeared in Ye Sanqi's hand. The narrow sword at the front of the flute, which was almost as long as the jade flute, had penetrated the butler's palm and pierced the man's forehead.
Is that the sword in the flute commonly used in the martial arts world?
However, the flutes used by Jianghu people are usually bronze or iron flutes, which can be used as short sticks when the sword is not used. Ye Sanqi used a white jade flute.
However, can something as fragile as white jade be able to block a sword head-on?
I was still worried about Ye Sanqi, but he had already pulled the flute back. The butler, whose eyebrows were pierced by Ye Sanqi's sword, fell to the ground with a stream of blood spurting out.
The beggar turned pale with fright: "You...you killed someone?"
"Luoyezhuang will not let anyone here go. You have tricked us to death."
Ye Sanqi put away his flute and looked around the crowd and said, "You risked your lives to break through the barrier just to see the owner of Luoye Manor."
"I can tell you that no matter what method you use, you can see the owner of the village as long as you break through the nine levels of Luoyezhuang. If you want to see the owner of the village, you can come with me. Those who regret it, it's still too late to leave now."
Ye Sanqi didn't care whether those people agreed or not, he pulled me towards Luoye Manor.
I saw that the few people behind me didn't follow, so I lowered my voice and said, "Master, if we don't run away quickly, why are we still rushing in?"
Ye Sanqi sent a message: "The owner of Luoye Village has some connections with me. Although I have to go through some obstacles when I ask him to do things, the people in Luoye Village will not deliberately embarrass me."
"I suspect something happened to the owner of the village. I have to go in and take a look."
"Then..." When I was worried, Ye Sanqi said again: "If we happen to be able to save the village owner's life, your problem will be easier to solve."
Ye Sanqi's words were really unheard of.
If nothing happens to Luoyezhuang, we may not be able to break in. If something goes wrong, wouldn't it be harder to break in?
Why didn't Ye Sanqi listen to others' advice?
When I was dragged forward by Ye Sanqi, all the eight people in the yard followed me. Felt Hat spoke first: "Sir, we are willing to go to Luoye Village with you. Please take care of us on the way!"
I'm not surprised that those people can catch up.
They had to gamble their lives for how many years they could eat and sleep in the yard. It was obvious that each of them had an obsession to accomplish something. When the opportunity comes, they won't give up.
However, people with obsessions are also extremely dangerous. If the next action touches the opponent's obsession, they will definitely kill without hesitation.
This is simply like walking with a pack of wolves who have their own agendas, and you might be eaten to the bone at some point.
"Yeah!" Ye Sanqi just nodded slightly and turned his attention to the door not far away. On the door where the word "福" should be, a pair of "一" characters were written on a square red paper.
This is the first level of Luoye Village!
Ye Sanqi just moved a step forward, and the door opened to both sides, revealing the dark yard behind.
Ye Sanqi whispered: "Be careful!" and walked into the yard. After the eight people followed, Ye Sanqi suddenly raised his hand: "Don't go forward, this yard can only go as far as The location of the twelfth brick.”
"Don't listen to his nonsense! You should have reached the fourteenth brick." I heard that the person who spoke was not speaking fluently, so I turned around and saw the fortune teller with malicious eyes.
That guy's mouth was cut open by my knife, and someone had sewn it up with twine at some point. Although the wound hadn't healed yet, he had no problem trying to speak.
I glanced to the side and saw an old man wearing linen clothes. The linen thread that sewed the fortune teller's wound was removed from his clothes.
The fortune teller said sternly: "Don't even listen to them, it's their first time here, they don't know anything!"
"I know the first six levels of Luoye Village like the back of my hand. The best position is only when you stand on the fourteenth brick."
The fortune teller talked eloquently: "When we come in from the door, it means that the first level of the puzzle has begun. There are ten questions in the first level. Which question the puppet in the yard will ask depends on where we stand. Position. Standing on the fourteenth brick, the puppet will give the easiest questions. Standing on the twelfth brick, the puppet will give the most difficult questions."
"Everyone, hurry up and stand forward."
The eight people walked past us without any hesitation and stood side by side. However, the puppet that the fortune teller mentioned has never appeared.
The fortune teller roared angrily: "What are you waiting for? Only when everyone in the yard stands over can the puppet come out. What are you waiting for there?"
Ye Sanqi said calmly: "I don't want to go to the location you chose. I only believe in my own choice!"
"You..." the fortune teller jumped and said, "He wants to kill us all!"
The old man in Mai also said coldly: "Friend, you don't know that this fortune teller is selling "Detailed Explanation" outside, right? The place he picked can't be wrong!"
I didn't wait for Ye Sanqi to speak before I said, "No one has passed through the pass in more than ten years, and all the people who entered before you have died. How does he know what is going on at the Nine Levels Pass? "
The old man in Mai said coldly: "He is a gatekeeper, I believe him."
The secret technique of listening to the door is to listen closely to the ground. Ordinary people lying on the ground can only hear the sound of footsteps and horse hooves, but people who listen to the door can hear people talking. The two sects of "Heaven Sees and Earth Hears" have become warlocks who make a living by selling information.
I immediately retorted: "There are ten questions in this courtyard. Someone has to try them ten times to know which question is the easiest. Can he still hear it ten times?"
The old man Mai said for the second time: "I said, I believe him. Just stand up and don't make yourself uncomfortable."
