A hundred years of changes are like a dream.
When Li Changan woke up from the illusion of Xiaoshui's past.
I couldn’t help but let out a long sigh of relief:
"I see."
It turns out that Xiaoshui Fantasy is nothing more than a carefully crafted tomb.
The vine demon, Yu Mei, is a tombkeeper who violates his duty.
The doctor, or Baihuandie, is a funerary object intended to turn against the guests.
All the living beings inside are just monsters in human skin.
The so-called "demon epidemic" is naturally not a real epidemic. It is just an "actor" who broke away from the "role" for decades and woke up crazy with hunger.
Think so.
In these days, what is the purpose of fighting life and death? Except what kind of monster? What kind of people are you helping?
The Taoist priest laughed endlessly.
He raised his head slightly, and the sunlight falling from the kiln entrance shone on his face, which was warm and a bit dazzling. He raised his hand to cover it... Huh? The Taoist priest put down his hand in a daze, turned it over in front of his eyes and took a closer look. The left hand that was broken by the mace was actually intact as before.
Not only that.
Deep or shallow scratches, bites, stabs, and cuts all over his body, as well as the weakness caused by excessive blood loss, were all wiped away. If it weren't for the tatters on his body, it would really make people think that the rampant fighting among the same group was just a dream.
"call."
The Taoist opened his chest to take in Qi and stretched his joints. He felt that his body was light and energetic, and he was in good condition everywhere, except that his muscles and bones were sluggish and his hands and feet were a little tingling, as if he had been sitting stiffly for too long.
He had a thought.
Look at the sun at its zenith. It was still late at night when we entered the illusion.
"How long?"
"Three days."
The God of Dionysus answered lightly, but Li Changan became excited after hearing this.
Three full days have passed in reality, but in that fantasy...
"Zi Mansion's divine thunder is really overbearing!" Dionysus twisted his beard and laughed, "With just one strike, it cut through the illusion. I don't know how many demons were burned, killed and shocked. If there were a few more strikes, wouldn't it be possible to kill them on the spot? Dispel the illusion!"
Fortunately, it didn’t break up!
Li Changan was very happy.
What are locked up in the illusion are tens of thousands of hungry cannibal monsters. Once they get out of trouble... just thinking about it makes people shudder.
But he didn't relax in one breath.
The Dionysus and the Old God spoke again: "But it will be a matter of time."
Li Changan raised his eyebrows: "How do you say that?"
"The illusion should have fallen apart long ago. Until now, it has only relied on devouring passers-by, spirits, and beasts, and the other is to tear down the east wall to repair the west wall. But now, the divine thunder has not only penetrated the illusion, but also shattered its The foundation. If it is repaired quickly, it may be able to survive for a while. But although the vine demon luckily escaped with his life, I am afraid he will never have the chance to control the illusion."
The Taoist priest was puzzled.
The Dionysus sneered and said, "The Taoist has forgotten the Hundred Illusion Butterflies? The vine demon is waiting for the bird to be hidden, but the Hundred Illusion Butterflies are also waiting for the oriole behind."
Li Changan's first reaction was that it was impossible.
The doctor had an iron hook pierced the bone of the lute, and was heavily sealed in the mountain behind Shuiyue Temple. There were also a group of rampant guards around Yu Mei.
But then I thought about it.
In the illusion, the iron hooks and seals are phantom objects. The illusion was shaken by the divine thunder, and the hundreds of phantom butterflies were flying among the illusions, so it was possible to escape by taking advantage of the opportunity.
The rampant soldiers around Yu Mei were all used against him, and they suffered heavy losses under the divine thunder. It is not impossible for Bai Huandie to turn against him if he is not careful.
But Li Changan had another guess.
That is, Baihuan Butterfly has always had the ability to escape. He deliberately sent it to the door, so that the "mantis" of the vine demon would think he had won and attack Li Changan, the "cicada", so that he could act as an oriole behind him. .
Figure out the joints.
Li Changan's troubled mood actually calmed down.
Things have come to this, how can it get worse?
There are only two developments in the next situation. One is that the illusion collapses, and tens of thousands of hungry monsters come out of the cage, eating the people who are thousands of miles away. Illusion, for example, using some monsters as nourishment to support the illusion, and over time, they become a huge evil force.
all in all.
One is very violent, and the other is endless misfortunes.
Either way, it can't be solved in a hurry.
The Taoist priest simply sat down cross-legged, looked at the Dionysian next to him, and wondered whether he really didn't care or was filled with despair:
"Since Zun Shen is a mere creature, now he has to escape from his cage. Isn't there any way?"
Bacchus shook his head and laughed.
"The Taoist priest thinks too highly of me."
"I have been cut off from sacrifices for nearly a hundred years, and I have been sealed in a stone statue for decades. I should have dissipated long ago."
"Although the Taoist priest used his magical power to wake me up from the chaos, a lonely soul cannot see through or touch the illusion."
"It was your divine thunder that pierced through the illusion, and I was able to see the things in the illusion. But as the thunder and fire subsided and the illusion healed, the things inside became dark again and I couldn't see anything."
"The only thing I can do is probably use the gaps created by the divine thunder to send one or two people into or out of the illusion."
All right.
Li Changan had been mentally prepared for this and was not too disappointed.
It's just that Dionysus is unreliable, and it's impossible to solve the current predicament on his own with only a sword. Thinking about the previous times of slaying demons, whether it's a mountain spider or a corpse Buddha, there are foreign aids to attract.
But this time, along the way, the Taoist priest saw deserted villages, abandoned shops, and deep mountains and old forests. He saw no living person, so who could he look for?
Besides, tens of thousands of demons cannot be dealt with by just one or two helpers.
The only way is to stop the situation before it gets to the worst.
But according to what Dionysus said, whether the demons come out of the cage or the phantom butterfly takes over, it all happens in a matter of seconds.
The situation in front of us is imminent, full of dangers, and a rolling wheel pressing on our heads.
If Li Chang'an, the praying mantis, doesn't want to be shattered to pieces, I'm afraid he can only run away with his tail between his legs, put all the grudges behind him, watch from afar, and watch the evil chaos bring disaster.
However.
Can you really put it aside and tolerate it?
…
Li Changan frowned and thought hard. The wine god next to him ignored him and just conjured up a drinking utensil to pour himself a drink.
The clouds in the sky are rolling and relaxing, allowing the sun to move.
Until the sun quietly slipped out of the small circle of sky above our heads.
Li Changan suddenly stood up.
Didn't he say anything? He just plunged into the water.
Not for a while.
He picked up the dead fish-like flying sword embryo and the accompanying sword bent into a plow from the bottom of the water. He cut some vines and wrapped the flying sword around his waist, then stepped on the accompanying sword to straighten it.
After some exercise, I felt that my muscles and bones were open and I felt refreshed as never before, so I spoke to the God of Dionysus:
"But I have to trouble God again."
Dionysus didn't even look up.
"It's okay for the Taoist to speak frankly."
"Please take me back to the fantasy world."
This sentence finally brought the Dionysus out from between the cups. He stared at the Taoist priest with surprise and disbelief.
"Do you have any idea?!"
"I have some clues, but whether it can be used and whether it can be successful can only be known after seeing it and trying it."
"Then there's nothing we can do."
The Dionysian's just-stretched waist relaxed again, and he slumped on his stone statue, pouring glass after glass of wine into his mouth.
"I think the Taoist priest is also a sensible person. You should know that the danger of the illusion at this time is a hundred times more than usual. You are young and capable, so why waste your good years and useful life here."
This is true.
The illusion is indeed more dangerous now.
Previously, people were in the illusion, and although they were ignorant and pawns, the only people they really had to deal with were Yu Mei and Lang Zhong. ,
But now, the illusion has been pierced by the divine thunder and is on the verge of collapse. Tens of thousands of demons may break free from the illusion at any time and swarm to eat people. Entering Xiaoshui at this time, the biggest danger becomes the illusion itself. What's more, there are Yu Mei and Lang Zhong watching eagerly.
It can be said that if there is a slight mistake, it will be shattered to pieces.
but……
"Zun Shen doesn't know. Although I, Li Chang'an, worship the Three Pure Ones and practice Taoism, I have not passed on the teachings. In the final analysis, I am a fake Taoist priest. I am not as gentle and peaceful as a real Taoist priest. I am just stingy and stingy. , that is, hatred will be repaid."
"The master's tablet and the magical artifacts he carried were left in the illusion, and they had to be taken away."
"Yu Mei and that big moth used me as a chess piece to play around. This revenge must be avenged!"
"Moreover……"
Li Changan smiled and pointed at the stone statue behind Bacchus.
Before drinking the wine, there were only slight cracks, but now that I woke up from the illusion and my injuries were healed, half of the stone statue had disintegrated into gravel.
"I have to repay the life-saving grace."
The Dionysus poured and drank for a long time, then smiled bitterly and shook his head, revealing the fatigue and weakness hidden under his free and easy appearance.
He stood up solemnly and bowed deeply.
