From the time Shen Hao was attacked to the time he broke out of the illusion, it took less than a cup of tea.
The monks sent by the three commanding yamen to monitor and protect Shen Hao were also frightened. The incident happened suddenly, and they didn't sense any hint of murderous intention in advance. It was already too late when they realized something was wrong.
The two driving guards and Shen Hao in the car were pulled into the illusion. The three "bodyguards" only had time to pull Shen Hao's body out of the carriage to protect it from secondary harm, but they were unable to face the illusion. Dare to rescue rashly.
What's more, the three of them discovered that the two guards' souls shattered and died on the spot in less than five breaths after falling into the illusion. They were even more shocked by the danger of this illusion and broke into a cold sweat on their foreheads.
Generally speaking, illusions are only used to trap people, but there are exceptions, and that is phantom killing.
Pull people into the "fear" or "power" or "despair" in their own memories, and use your memories to deal with yourself. Once you "die" in the hands of these memories, your soul will also fall into deathly silence, which will also collapse your sea of consciousness or consciousness, resulting in actual death.
This method is very weird. If you can use it under the noses of the three of them without getting caught, you are a master who is good at phantom killing.
Recourse? Just kidding, the three "bodyguards" didn't even notice how Shen Hao was pulled into the illusion, so how could they track down the murderer? What if no one catches him, but he falls into the trap of luring the tiger away from the mountain, which will make people laugh out loud.
Fortunately for the three of them, Shen Hao, the one who was favored by the commander, really had some abilities. After being hit by the phantom kill, his soul only experienced a small shock, and then he was stable and not about to be killed by the phantom kill. signs. This shows that Shen Baihu's soul is extremely strong, and he can survive even when faced with murderous intentions fabricated from his own memory. Even before the three "bodyguards" worked together to cast spells to consolidate Shen Hao's soul and give him a boost, Shen Hao escaped from this phantom killing.
Shen Hao carried the bodies of the two guards into the carriage and put them away, then helped them close their eyes.
Facing Shen Hao's inquiry, the three "bodyguards" shook their heads, and one of them replied: "You have been hit by a phantom kill. The threshold for practicing this method is not high. Souls that are slightly above the ordinary level can learn it." There are no fixed sect characteristics for practicing. There are masters in this field in all major sects, and there are also such monks among casual cultivators. It is impossible to judge the identity of the opponent based on his methods."
Although Shen Hao wanted to ask why these three people didn't find anyone and why they were so unreliable at the critical moment, he held back in the end. The other party had no affiliation with him, and it was Commander Pang Ban's intention to keep an eye on him. He had no right to criticize the other party in turn.
After just a few words, a large number of people from the Xuanqing Guard arrived on the other side of the street. It looked like there were at least two small flag camps.
The leader is Tang Qingyuan. Today Qianhu Kuang Shengyuan went to the imperial city for business and was not at Qianhu Office. When Tang Qingyuan heard the emergency report, he immediately ordered someone to come to the rescue. The frost on his face quickly dissipated when he saw that Shen Hao was still alive.
He patted Shen Hao's shoulder hard and said with a smile: "I knew nothing would happen to you. Do you have any clues? Do you know who did it?"
Shen Hao smiled and shook his head: "The person ran away and was not caught. He used phantom killing methods. It is probably difficult to investigate."
"It's not easy to investigate, but it has to be investigated. They actually dared to assassinate hundreds of officials of Xuanqing Guards on the street in broad daylight. These thieves are really courageous. If they are caught, they will be in a dilemma of life and death!" Tang Qingyuan saw that Shen Hao was not in a mood. After asking some other questions, I went down to make arrangements. With such a big thing happening in Fengri City, it was natural that the Xuanqing Guards would not let it go.
Shen Hao himself didn't think it was anything. He had experienced too much life and death over the years. This phantom killing made it interesting for him to kill the characters in the movie. Although it was dangerous, it was far from dangerous. The point where death comes back to life.
When Wang Jian arrived with a pale face, the three "bodyguards" had disappeared again. These three people probably don't want to be discovered by others, so they should stick closer to each other now. At the same time, the news was probably reported to the higher authorities.
"Sir, are you okay?"
"What can happen? It's just a waste of time." Shen Hao continued to walk home. Naturally, the personnel of the Black Flag Battalion were responsible for the funeral arrangements at the scene.
Seeing Wang Jian following him, Shen Hao didn't chase him away. Instead, he continued to ask, "Have you made any progress over there?"
"There are some. I just listened to the report from the people below. If something happens to you, I will rush over."
"Tell me?"
"I just discovered that the business relationships between those two families are very close. After digging deeper, I found that the Zhou family actually has a medicinal materials shop in Haixia. However, the name of this shop has nothing to do with the Zhou family, but the Zhou family takes the majority of the money. . These information are based on the Zhou family’s account books. Their accounts are very complicated, and they are obviously trying to cover up some money coming in and out.”
"There's a problem if you cover up the entry and exit of property. Dig it out and do it quickly!"
Because they were on the road, the surroundings were not clear, so the two of them spoke vaguely and did not talk in depth. We walked all the way back to Shen Hao's house. As soon as I entered the door, I saw a group of domestic servants showing their heads. Their expressions of concern were obvious even without speaking. Especially Xia Nu and the two younger ones, their eyes were filled with tears.
"Okay, let's break up. I'm not dead, why are you crying? Go and get two bowls of sour soup noodles." After saying that, he turned to Wang Jian and asked Wang Jian to stay for dinner.
After finishing a bowl of noodles, Wang Jian left, saying that he was going back to stare at the analysis results of the third part. As long as he saw that Shen Hao was fine, he would feel relieved.
"You should be more careful when you go back and ask Zhang Liao to send you two more guards."
"Sir, please rest assured that your subordinates will act with caution."
As soon as Wang Jian left, Shen Hao went to the bathhouse. The water had been put there. He wanted to take a good bath to relieve his fatigue and relax the tense nerves from the previous phantom killing.
Natsu's eyes were still very red, her mouth was pursed, and she was very different from her usual smiling and carefree look.
"Who are you showing your bitter face to? Okay, give me a squeeze on your shoulder." Shen Hao leaned on the edge of the pool and patted Xia Nu, not liking her pitiful appearance.
"Master, I was scared just now. You, don't you have many subordinates? Bring them all with you. No one will dare to harm you!" From Xia Nu's point of view, Shen Hao was in danger this time because he was stupid. You don’t need so many subordinates, so what’s the point of just having two?
Shen Hao knew the brain circuit of Xia Nu, a stupid slave, and explaining to her was a waste of time. So she leaned her head back on Natsu's chest and didn't answer at all. Instead, he raised his hand, rubbed his thumb and index finger, and an invisible but irregular object that swallowed light appeared on Shen Hao's fingertips. This thing cannot be seen clearly with the eyes alone, and must be aided by perception.
This is Kurogiri, to be precise, the current Kurogiri.
