I was in a trance for a moment, unable to tell whether this was reality or whether I was still in an illusion set by the mountain demon.
Because the scene before me was exactly the same as what I saw in the mountain demon hallucination!
Not far ahead.
Shuo Bai stood in front with a long sword in his hand.
In front of him, five corpses were kneeling. These five corpses all had their heads chopped off, and they had just died. They still maintain their human form, they are exactly the five wild fairy brothers we are looking for!
The blood flowing from the broken neck formed a blood river in front of the corpse. On this side of the blood river was Shuo Bai.
The sword was stained with blood, and blood dripped down the blade. Shuo Bai was wearing a white shirt. The clothes in front of him were soaked with blood, and blood beads ran down the corners of the clothes.
As I observed the scene in front of me, the corpses of the five wild fairies began to change, and finally revealed their original shapes, turning into five headless animal corpses.
"Liu Xian'er." The mountain god suddenly spoke, his calm and thin voice echoing through the forest.
I came to my senses, opened my mouth, and a slightly hoarse voice came out of my mouth.
"Shuo Bai, what happened here?"
Shuo Bai turned back to look at me.
His expression was confused for a moment, and his deep eyes seemed to have an ink ball that could not be dissolved. The ink ball was very dark but dull. There was no sparkle in his eyes at all.
After a while, the ink ball melted away, and his eyes regained their vitality, like a drunken person suddenly waking up. The confusion disappeared, and his expression turned into his usual deserted look.
Shuo Bai was startled for a moment when he saw me and the mountain god. Then he turned to look at the five corpses in front of him, and then looked down at the sword in his hand.
"I didn't kill him," Shuo Bai said. "I fell under the illusion of the mountain demon. I had been in an illusion before. I only woke up when I heard Tangning's voice."
I'm not sure I can trust his explanation, but it at least gives me some comfort.
Maybe, I can really believe in him a little more, believe in his explanation, and believe that he is innocent.
The mountain god walked over. He squatted down and carefully inspected the five animal carcasses. Then he stood up and looked at Shuo Bai.
"Liu Xian'er, what did you see in the fantasy? Tang Xiangu and I both woke up. There is no reason for you to wake up slower than Tang Xiangu. I am not doubting you, but I am really curious. Liu Xian'er, you Can you answer me?"
He said he didn't doubt it, but in fact he suspected that Shuo Bai had killed these five wild immortals.
I can understand it, and Shuo Bai naturally understands it even more clearly.
He turned to look at the mountain god, his eyes were cold and without any emotion, "I saw some past events and was haunted by them, so I woke up a little late."
"The mountain demon is good at amplifying the fear and darkness in people's hearts," the mountain god said. "The more fearful a person is, the more immersive the mountain demon can make the person experience. When people are frightened, their inner defenses will drop, and the mountain demon will Demons will take this opportunity to invade people's hearts.
Liu Xian'er, you have been trapped in the illusion for so long, and you must have seen some past events that made you feel very scared. "
Shuo Bai's expression remained unchanged, but his black eyes turned cold.
He was unhappy.
And the mountain god's words made me realize my feelings for Shuo Bai once again. This love is much deeper than I thought. It turned out that I had fallen in love with him unknowingly.
The thing that scares me the most is that Shuo Bai is a bad person!
If I didn't care about him, I wouldn't be so scared.
"Liu Xian'er, have you seen my magic weapon?" the mountain god asked again.
The magic weapon of the mountain god was stolen by the five wild immortal brothers. Now the five brothers have been killed, but the magic weapon has not yet been found.
Shuo Bai shook his head, "I just woke up from the illusion, and I don't know much more than you do."
"Liu Xian'er, I believe you."
The mountain god looked at Shuo Bai and said, "I believe you did not kill these five demons. You are trapped in the illusion, and the only one who can kill these five demons at this time is the mountain demon. Kill the demons Not only did I kill five of them, I also took away their demon pills and my magic weapon.
The mountain demon has broken through the seal and reappeared. My magic weapon is a divine weapon. He can't move it with just one demon. The magic weapon is of no use to him. But he took the risk and took away the magic weapon. Does this mean that he used my magic weapon for other purposes? What can a demon do with an artifact? "
The mountain god's words instantly reminded me of the reincarnation formation.
The activation of the reincarnation formation requires divine power. If the divine power taken out from my heart is not enough, the mountain god's magic weapon can be used as a substitute to supplement the required divine power.
But then I thought it was unlikely.
The mountain demon has just broken through the seal and appeared in the world. He has been locked in the candlestick before. What relationship can he have with the reincarnation circle! It was because I kept thinking about the reincarnation circle that I became obsessed with it, and everything was related to the reincarnation circle.
Shuo Bai said he didn't know, it was the magic weapon of the mountain god, and he didn't know what use it could be used for.
Hearing Shuo Bai say this, the mountain god's lips curled up, and he smiled meaningfully. I don't know what he was thinking.
The plan to use my blood to seduce the troll was a failure. Now the mountain demon has not been caught, the magic weapon has not been recovered, and the five wild fairy brothers are still dead.
Not only that, the mountain demon also obtained the demon elixir from the five wild immortal brothers. After the mountain demon absorbs the power of these five brothers, its strength will definitely increase greatly. Give the mountain demon some more time. If the mountain demon regains its strength, then the mountain god will not be the opponent of the mountain demon!
Therefore, time is tight and the mountain demon must be found as soon as possible without waiting for him to fully recover.
"Liu Xian'er," the mountain god asked, "can you provide some clues about my magic weapon?"
I looked at the mountain god strangely.
He had always been polite to Shuo Bai and his conversation was appropriate, consistent with his status. But if you look closely, you will find that his politeness is only superficial. In fact, it seemed that he had always wanted to anger Shuo Bai, or in other words, he had always wanted to get the information he wanted from Shuo Bai.
In this last sentence, his strangeness is particularly obvious.
Shuo Bai frowned slightly and looked at the mountain god coldly.
But before Shuo Bai could finish speaking, I jumped in and said, "Master Mountain God, your question is too strange. Your magic weapon was taken away by the mountain demon. You have no clue at all. What can Shuo Bai provide?" Where are the useful clues? He and the mountain demon are not in the same group, right?"
The Mountain God just said before that he believed in Shuo Bai, and if he wants to refute me now, then he would be slapping himself in the face.
The mountain god's expression froze for a moment, he glanced at me coldly and said nothing.
Shuo Bai heard that I was speaking to him, so he reached over and took my hand with his big hand.
Then, he said to the mountain god, "Liu Yinglong's whereabouts are still unknown. We will continue to investigate the whereabouts of the mountain demon. However, we are here to save the immortal family, not to find your magic weapon. You should go find your magic weapon yourself."
After saying that, Shuo Bai took my hand and turned around to leave.
As if he didn't expect Shuo Bai to say this, the mountain god was stunned for a moment and then asked quickly, "Liu Xian'er, don't you need me to explain it to you?"
