On the same day, Zhoujia Village.
A sudden explosion occurred in this village where there should no longer be any living people.
The footsteps came slowly and stopped in front of the exploded house. The person who came was none other than Mr. Lu.
But I saw that his cheeks were red, and he looked at the flaming house in front of him, his lips were slightly white, and his eyes were full of surprise, but then, he revealed an unspeakable emotion.
"died?"
He said slowly to himself.
"died."
he said again.
Then he suddenly burst out laughing like crazy
"Hahahahaha, die well!"
But the next moment, his laughter stopped abruptly.
"Cough cough... cough cough..."
A faint sound of coughing came from the flaming house, and then, amid the billowing smoke, a fat figure was vaguely outlined.
"impossible"
Mr. Lu's face suddenly turned pale, he shook his head and said.
"impossible"
He took a step back and said again.
"impossible!"
His face was red and his ears were red with anger, and he pointed at the figure tremblingly.
In the firelight, Zhang Yuguan's figure became more solid. After a moment, he completely walked out of the smoke and stood in front of Mr. Lu.
All the robes on his body were blown up, and even the inner lining had a few rags hanging on him. His fat and white belly was bulging, but his face was painted black, perhaps because of the explosion. Black, the whole person looks embarrassed and funny.
No matter how funny he looked now, those extremely ruthless eyes were like luminous stones in the darkness, emitting a cold and biting light.
At this moment, he seemed to be a different person. Not only his indifferent eyes, but also his whole body gave people an extremely cold feeling. Mr. Lu's shadow was reflected in his pupils, which were as dark as before. This person is already dead.
"You're fine."
He suddenly opened his mouth and said lightly.
Mr. Lu looked at those cold eyes, and there was a "dong" sound in his heart, as if he had been hit hard by a heavy hammer. He looked unwilling.
"Why aren't you dead yet?"
Zhang Yuguan smiled evilly, and the coldness in his eyes disappeared suddenly, returning to the clear eyes of the past.
"Why do you want me to die?"
When Mr. Lu heard this, he laughed angrily.
"Hahahaha, why?"
"Shouldn't you ask yourself? There are only you and me here, what are you still pretending to do!"
Zhang Yuguan looked confused, scratched his head, and took a few steps forward.
"What do you mean?"
When Mr. Lu saw him taking a few steps closer to him, he trembled all over and took a few steps back unconsciously.
Seeing this, Zhang Yuguan showed an even more confused expression on his face, shook his head and said
"I really don't understand."
As he spoke, he took a few steps forward, and this time, he seemed to speed up his pace.
When Mr. Lu saw this, he stepped back faster. However, at this moment, Zhang Yuguan's eyes suddenly changed again, and he saw that his whole body was suddenly filled with splendor and radiance. Unknowingly, the Golden Body Curse had covered his body. whole body.
"boom!"
Murderous intent was evident in his eyes, and the terrifying Dao Yun exploded under his feet. He just jumped up, and a shallow pit was blown out under his feet. Then in the blink of an eye, his figure came to Mr. Lu's side.
"Well!"
He stretched out his hand, easily grabbed Mr. Lu's throat, and lifted him up.
Zhang Yuguan's eyes were playful, and he was holding on to him as if he were a chicken. Mr. Lu desperately used his hands to pry his fingers away, trying to remove the hand that was holding his throat.
But how good Zhang Yuguan is now, no matter how hard he tries, Zhang Yuguan's hand doesn't move at all.
Tick tock, time passed bit by bit. Zhang Yuguan felt that Mr. Lu's hands were getting weaker and weaker, his face was getting paler and whiter, his eyeballs were white, his mouth was round, and his tongue was slightly sticking out. He smiled evilly and faintly said
"That's not right. After much thought, I have no grievances between you and me. I really can't understand why you are so hostile to me."
As he said that, he pinched his throat with a little more force. Mr. Lu's eyes were already bloodshot, and his hands and feet that had been struggling so hard were now unable to move.
"Forget it, I'm not a person who likes to use my brain. No matter who you are, if you want to kill me, then I can only kill you."
Suddenly, murderous intent appeared in his eyes again, and his hand exerted force again, about to break his neck. But at this moment, a sword light came from the sky, and the sword energy covered Zhang Yuguan's whole body, as if weaving a big net in the air. , shrouding Zhang Yuguan in it.
Zhang Yuguan's expression suddenly changed, and when he saw the sword net, his eyes showed fear. He quickly let go of Mr. Lu, and the Golden Body Curse transformed into his feet, and he escaped from the sword net with the speed of a god.
But I saw a loud voice coming
"Hahahaha, Mr. Lu, didn't Taoist Zhang give you a fortune a long time ago? Why do you insist on persisting in doing something that is bound to fail?"
Zhang Yuguan heard this, looked around and shouted
"Brother Chang An, you finally showed up. There has been no news for so long. I thought you were dead."
But after searching for a long time, he still couldn't find where Chang An was, but he heard Chang An's voice coming over again.
"Daozhang Zhang, what you said really hurts my heart. Not only have you been sleeping soundly these past few days, but you have also accomplished great feats. I have been working so hard and never stopped, and I have fallen ill."
A hint of shock flashed in Zhang Yuguan's eyes, and then it disappeared, and he smiled and said with his hands in the air.
"In that case, if Brother Chang An doesn't show up yet, I'll drink a few glasses of wine with Brother Chang An to calm down the shock."
But then he changed the topic
"But Brother Chang An, there is a big enemy here who wants to kill me. Brother Chang An has to wait until I take care of this guy before I can drink with you."
As he spoke, murderous intent appeared in his eyes again, and with lightning speed, he rushed in front of Mr. Lu. Mr. Lu, who had just escaped from death, was still in fear, but he was holding him in his hands again.
"Boom!"
But before he could take action, the situation took another turn. A finger force full of internal energy firmly resisted Zhang Yuguan's hand. Zhang Yuguan felt that the continuous internal force was attacking the golden body outside his body. The golden body kept vibrating, and unexpectedly There were signs of it breaking apart, so he turned pale in fright and quickly backed away.
Looking at Chang An standing next to Mr. Lu with a smile, Zhang Yuguan looked gloomy and said
"Brother Chang An, what do you mean?"
Chang An gently pulled up the sword stuck on the ground and said with a smile
"Daozhang Zhang, you are a monk. Monks are not allowed to kill rashly. Has Taoist Zhang even forgotten this?"
Zhang Yuguan’s eyes became colder and colder
"It seems that Brother Chang An already knows."
Chang An smiled
"It seems that Daochang Zhang has also woken up from his dream."
"Oh, I'm sorry, I should call you Louzhu Zhang!"
When he heard the words "Lord Zhang", Zhang Yuguan's expression softened. He lowered his head and patted the dust on his body with his fat little hands.
"No wonder I haven't been able to find you since you disappeared in Zhoujiacun. Have you been spying on me?"
Chang An pondered for a moment and said
"When I found out that your name was Zhang Yuguan and that you were a descendant of the Taoist sect, I already had great doubts about you."
Zhang Yuguan sneered
"The Chang family's intelligence network is unfathomable. I have been in a dream for a year and I don't even remember who I am, but Brother Chang An recognized me as soon as I saw him face to face."
Chang An said
"Although I doubted you, in my opinion at the time, you really didn't look like a killer. A killer who killed people without any calculation. Even if you pretend, you can't pretend to have such clear eyes like yours. So, I'm trying to figure out the truth of the matter. Before, I could only wait for you to reveal your flaws."
Zhang Yuguan smiled and said
"But I was no longer me at that time. Brother Chang An was following me, so how could he find out anything."
Chang On Road
"Indeed, you have a close relationship with the villagers of Huangye Village, and you are so concerned about the tragedy in Zhoujia Village. You are always kind to others. No matter from which point of view, there is nothing wrong with you, but there is only one thing you can never change. .”
Zhang Yuguan frowned and said
"What is it?"
Chang An said
"Dream."
Zhang Yuguan's expression changed
"Dream!"
Chang An nodded
"No matter what a person becomes, he can't change the facts that have happened in the past. As for the killer on the twelfth floor, no matter how you suppress the evil spirit on your body or change your behavior, you can't change who you were. The past facts of a killer. I didn’t know what method you used to make yourself look like a completely different person. But even a person with amnesia only seals the memory in his own mind. , the memory itself does not disappear.”
"You suppress your instincts so much that your former self needs an outlet, and the best outlet is your dream. In ancient times, Zhuang Zhouxiao dreamed of butterflies, and dreams often become reality. I will follow you for a few days, When I dream back at midnight, I am often startled into a cold sweat by the bloody and extremely real scene. Why is it bloody and why is it real? Because it is not a dream, but when you are slacking off, those memories that have been sealed by your own hands can be reopened. ”
"You are carrying more than 300 lives in Zhoujia Village. How can you sleep peacefully every time you dream about it at midnight?"
Zhang Yuguan's eyes suddenly became melancholy. He slowly looked into the distance and exhaled slightly.
"Zhuang Zhou is obsessed with butterflies in his dream. I woke up from a dream today and was told by Brother Chang An that I don't even know who I am. Zhang Yuguan, the heir of the Taoist sect? Or Zhang Yuguan, the master of the twelfth floor?"
He shook his head, a little confused.
Chang An sneered.
"Of course you can't be Zhang Yuguan, a successor of the Taoist sect, because that is just an identity you set for yourself before your dream. A true successor of the Taoist sect, haven't you already sucked all the Taoism from you?"
Zhang Yuguan smiled slyly and licked his lips, seeming to recall the feeling of relief he felt when he sucked off the Taoist in the Quasi-Emperor's Mansion.
"Strange to say, I actually feel a little dazed now. He really was my master for a while. I traveled with him to famous mountains and rivers, and tasted all the joys and sorrows in the world."
Chang An's voice became colder and colder
"Although I doubted you at first, even if I saw you waking up from your dreams every night, I didn't dare to confirm that you were the killer on the twelfth floor. But when I saw the evil coffin formation in the Gu Mansion that took away humanity, At that time, I finally confirmed your identity."
