Chapter 201: The Bell of Revenge
Chapter 201: The Bell of Revenge
The howling wind made the windows bang.
"Did you notice how many coffins there are here just now?" Shen Chutang asked suddenly.
Shi Jingchan and Gongsun Li were slightly stunned and looked at Shen Chutang in confusion.
"But sixteen?" he asked again.
Gongsun Li did not notice this detail and fell into deep thought.
Shi Jingchan thought about it and nodded uncertainly: "It seems to be sixteen."
Shen Chutang's eyes flashed coldly, and the murderous aura around him gradually gathered together.
On that day in Lanyue Tower, there were eight venerables plus Old Feng, him and Mu Yao, a total of eleven people.
If Xiao Douxue, Wei Wushang and the three people from Du Gu are counted, there are exactly sixteen people.
There are never so many coincidences in the world.
These sixteen coffins were probably prepared for them.
With a "bang", a silver light struck the silver bell on the wall.
The entire gray wall collapsed outward, and debris flew everywhere.
A bloodthirsty light flashed in Shen Chutang's eyes, and violence spread all over his body.
Gongsun Li and Shi Jingchan were shocked by his murderous aura. This biting coldness and the thick death in his eyes were definitely not something that ordinary people could match. Who was he?
"Do you know the identity of that person?" Shi Jingchan sensed something from Shen Chutang's overreaction.
"That man came here for Guigu Shensha, to avenge him and to claim our lives."
Shen Chutang has always acted decisively and has never regretted the word in his life.
But at this moment, at this instant, he regretted it.
Gongsun Li and Shi Jingchan rarely left the valley, so they had no impression of this person. But they had heard a little about Guigu.
All those killed by Gongsun Li yesterday were from Guigu, and among them, Yansha Wei Xiao was someone he had met several times more than 20 years ago. At that time, he was just a lone traveler in the world and had nothing to do with Guigu.
"Mr. Shen, did you kill the evil spirit?" Gongsun Li asked.
When the two men saw that Shen Chutang didn't say anything for a long time, they understood what was going on.
"It seems that the man anticipated that I would come back here, so he left a string of silver bells." Shen Chutang said in a sullen tone, with clouds in his eyes.
He has never been afraid of trouble, but now he finds it extremely difficult and seems to have no idea what to do.
I had an ominous premonition in my heart. This time, my opponent was extremely cunning and might be quite difficult to deal with.
"That's a blatant demonstration against us." Shi Jingchan's eyes flickered.
"No, it's not a demonstration, it's a declaration of war," Gongsun Li corrected.
He remembered. Seventy years ago, outside the city of Yunlan Zixiao, he and his master had passed by an abandoned inn. At that time, there was a child of seven or eight years old holding a big red lantern and sitting on a coffin, swinging his legs, and his eyes were green.
If he is really the child from that year, he is now seventy-eight years old and is most likely an ancestor of Guiguzi Shensha.
In Fengxue Building, the hall was full of people.
Many guests saw that the weather was getting worse and they could not move forward. They drank pot after pot of hot tea, but the weather did not improve.
At this moment, Mu Yao was trapped in chaos, her body tightly wrapped in endless darkness, as if floating above the Milky Way, flying freely.
Her heart had never been so peaceful before, and it gave her a comfort she had never felt before. That beauty was as calm as a lake, as gentle as a warm breeze, and as soft as soaking in cotton wool. She was so comfortable that she didn't want to wake up.
Xiao Douxue asked the shop to buy a set of silver needles. At this moment, he was roasting them one by one over the candle flame.
"Will your method work?" When Wei Wushang saw that he was going to use a needle on Mu Yao, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and he changed his sitting positions into three different positions in just a few breaths.
"Don't worry, I just want to test how much consciousness my wife still has. If there is any uncertainty, I won't do it."
Xiao Douxue heated the needle back and forth several times, his mind constantly scrolling through all the prescriptions he had collected throughout his life, but none of them was effective for his condition, and he couldn't help feeling discouraged.
Li Yan seemed to have thought of something, but swallowed the words back when they came to his lips.
"Ali? What do you think?" Wei Wushang asked anxiously when he saw that he seemed to be hesitant to speak.
He had never considered Li Yan as an ordinary kid. Even he was ashamed of his speed of shrinking the earth into an inch.
Li Yan seemed a little nervous. He bit his index finger hard and expressed his thoughts: "Brother Wushang, Sister Mu was struck by an evil spell. I think it is useless to treat her with ordinary medical skills. Extraordinary diseases require extraordinary methods."
Wei Wushang's eyes narrowed, and Xiao Douxue also stopped what he was doing.
"Keep talking!"
"Should we ask a master to take a look at my sister?"
. . . . . .
Xiao Douxue exhaled a breath of foul air, turned around and continued to roast the silver needles.
Wei Wushang looked at Mu Yao and remained silent.
Looking for a master?
The ugly face of the old bald monk Mingjing suddenly appeared in his mind, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes. Li Yan was so scared that he teleported out of the house and was afraid to go in.
"Ali, what are you doing here?"
Gongsun Li saw Li Yan standing outside the door and asked in confusion.
Li Yan heaved a sigh of relief when he saw his master and the others coming back.
"Master, I just said something wrong and made my two brothers unhappy. I will wait for you to come back here."
"What did you say?" Gongsun Li asked curiously.
"I said we should ask a master to take a look at Sister Mu, after all, she was bewitched by an evil spell. Then Brother Wushang got angry."
Gongsun Li's eyes lit up and he touched Li Yan's little nose with satisfaction.
"Ali said it very well, there is nothing wrong with it. Come in."
Shi Jingchan and Shen Chutang pondered over Li Yan's words. It sounded incredible, yet they inexplicably felt that they were extremely relevant.
When Wei Wushang saw them coming back, he pulled up the bed curtain and signaled them not to speak.
After a cup of tea, Xiao Douxue pulled up the curtain and said solemnly, "My wife's five senses are blocked."
"The soul-stealing technique can also block the five senses?" Wei Wushang asked in surprise. He had never heard of it before.
"It wasn't the soul-stealing technique that sealed it, it was the lady herself who sealed it." Xiao Douxue explained.
"What do you mean? Explain it clearly." Wei Wushang was anxious.
"It means that she herself does not want to wake up and is immersed in the state of mind created by the soul-mastery."
"Have you found any clues from Xingzhi?" Xiao Douxue turned his hopes to Shen Chutang and the other three.
When Xiao Douxue heard what Shen Chutang said, he went berserk on the spot.
"Mr. Shen, do you understand the importance of leaving a way out for others? If you hadn't killed me, my wife wouldn't have suffered such a great crime. You are such a bad husband. My wife almost died after marrying you! The gods and demons didn't do anything to my wife. Why do you care so much about marrying her? You are not my legal husband. Xu Qingcheng doesn't worry about it, so why should you worry about it?"
Countless black crows flew by.
Half of the green flute seemed to be exposed from Shen Chutang's sleeve.
Wei Wushang stared at Xiao Douxue with a complicated expression, clenching his fists and then releasing them.
Gongsun Li silently gave Xiao Douxue countless thumbs up. No wonder he was able to take on the position of the head of Dan Pavilion at such a young age. Look at this precious awareness, look at that mind that is broader than the sea.
At this time, Shi Jingchan was already deeply immersed in Xiao Douxue's words, unable to extricate himself. His mind was full of thoughts, and deep in his heart he was struggling, liberated, uneasy, and hesitant.
"What do we do now?"
Li Yan's question brought everyone back to their senses and completely extinguished the flames that were about to burst into flames.
Shen Chutang calmed down and said, "I think what Ali said is a good idea."
"Yes, it's better than sitting and waiting to die." Li Yan saw Shen Chutang standing on his side, with hope in his eyes.
