the next day.
In the city of Luoyang, where all the heroes gathered, a very explosive news spread like crazy again, causing many heroes who were already paying attention to a certain important event to discuss and pay close attention to it.
It is reported that the general meaning of the news is: last night, around the time of the ugly, "Shadow Assassin" Yang Xuyan, together with "Sentimental Young Master" Hou Xibai, sneaked into the Jing Nian Temple where the 'He's Bi' is stored and cooperated with a certain person.
Someone stole the 'He's Bi' in front of Zen Master Nakong Kong?
The news came from a certain eminent monk in Jing Nian Monastery, and many heroes who went to inquire through various channels have more or less confirmed it from the mouths of some monks. The matter is well-founded.
, and last night a lot of people indeed saw the four Vajra protectors of Jing Nian Temple and a large number of warrior monks noisily and angrily chasing two men in black all night outside Luoyang City. That would never happen.
Fake!
Among them, what shocked and disbelieved the heroes who were waiting for the opportunity in Luoyang City the most was that the "shadow assassin" Yang Xuyan and the "passionate son" Hou Xibai finally succeeded in stealing from many monks in Jing Nian Monastery.
He escaped under the siege and pursuit and his whereabouts are still unknown together with the 'He's Bi'?
In fact, at the beginning, when they heard that the 'He's Bi' had been stolen from the Jing Nian Temple, the many forces, nobles and heroes in Luoyang were quite excited, because then they would go and rob it.
At that time, it was easier than snatching it from Cihang Jingzhai's hands, and for this reason, they were all gearing up to seize that good treasure that "can conquer the world".
But...
When they learned that many clues and spearheads pointed at a certain terrifying existence, that is, the evil king Shi Zhixuan, those people suddenly stopped and sighed, not prepared to die easily and look for Shi Zhixuan.
Trouble.
You must know that Shi Zhixuan is a top master who is feared and recognized by both the world and the demon sect, and the "Immortal Seal" has made countless martial arts people change their minds after hearing about it. No one is brave enough to dare to touch the opponent's bad luck easily!
Therefore, most of the heroes in Luoyang soon no longer doubted the rumors that the 'Heshi Bi' might be in the hands of Shi Zhixuan.
After all, the relationship between the "Shadow Assassin" Yang Xuyan and the "Sentimental Young Master" Hou Xibai and the Evil King Shi Zhixuan cannot be hidden from some interested people, but they can drive those two people to Jing Nian Temple to cover up, and in the end they can
After successfully grabbing the 'He's Jade' from Master Likong, the abbot, there will be no one else but the "Evil King" Shi Zhixuan. This is very reasonable and reasonable.
but……
Some people still doubt it...
But no matter what, so far, the various large and small forces, clans and heroes gathered in Luoyang City only know two things:
First: The 'He's Bi' was indeed lost, and it was lost in the hands of Cihang Jingzhai. The 'King Selection' activity between Shi Feixuan and Cihang Jingzhai in Luoyang had not yet started.
It would be a huge loss to start the show and continue to build momentum.
It can be seen from this that whether it is Cihang Jingzhai or Shi Feixuan, or the Taoist number one master "Sanren" Ning Daoqi who cooperates with Cihang Jingzhai, I am afraid that they will never give up easily and remain indifferent!
Second: The man who once made people in the world change their minds and made countless masters fearful, the "evil king" Shi Zhixuan who disappeared for a long time, has returned to the world again.
After thinking about it, in the near future, there will be waves of bloodshed here in Luoyang or somewhere else, right?
…
Of course, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were the instigators of the above chaotic events, pretending to be the "Shadow Assassin" Yang Xuyan and the "Sentimental Young Master" Hou Xibai, and blaming the disappearing 'He's Bi' on the 'Evil King' Shi Zhixuan.
I didn't pay much attention to it at all.
"Master!"
"Master?"
"Are you awake?"
"Where's He's Bi?"
"Hurry up and show it to your disciples?"
Seeing that their master didn't get up until the afternoon, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, who had narrowly escaped death and successfully escaped in the morning with the underwater breathing ability of "The Secret of Immortality", rushed up to them and asked impatiently.
.
"??"
(???.???)????
"How do you know someone else took it?!"
(??ω???‖)?
Seeing the two people's determined looks, Anne couldn't help but be a little surprised.
You know, she deliberately tricked the two of them last night and watched them being hunted without doing anything. She ran back alone to sleep first, and she can guarantee that she sneaked in from behind the big monk and took it away.
When I look at that boring 'He's Jade', no one else will see it!
But now, these two people insist that she took it, which is quite rare.
"..."
(￣□￣*||
However, Annie regretted it as soon as she finished speaking, because she knew from the expressions of the two of them that she seemed to have been tricked.
(…)
(●￣?￣●)
"It really is!"
"Very good!"
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling didn't care so much. After receiving the affirmative answer, they cheered and approached their little master Anne expectantly, eager for the other party to quickly take out the magical and magical weapon.
The "He's Bi" and "Jade Seal of the Nation" which are said to be "all kinds of rumors" in the world will be given to them.
"..."
(′～`●)
"All right!"
ε=(′ο｀*)))Alas
"It's not fun anyway, and it's not a rare thing, so I'll give it to you!"
(￢д￢.)
"Give!
"
???(＿＿*)??
As she spoke, Anne quickly took out the piece with the shape of a dragon engraved on it. As soon as she took it out, it exuded an indescribable and soul-stirring strange brilliance. The lower part was missing but had gold to make up for it. At the same time, the lower part was filled with gold.
The seal was indeed engraved with the eight seal characters "Ordered by God to live forever" and was thrown into Xu Ziling's arms.
"NCM!"
"Thank you, Master!"
Seeing the treasure, Xu Ziling couldn't think too much and excitedly reached out and picked it up.
But...
"!
"
Xu Ziling, who was just about to take a closer look and experience its magic, was ecstatic the moment he touched it, as if he had seen something incredible.
"..."
“Whoaaah!
!”
Then, after being in a daze for a long time and Kou Zhong calling several times, he suddenly came to his senses and threw it to the ground, while screaming and staggering back several steps.
"?!"
"What's wrong?"
"Ziling?"
Seeing this, Kou Zhong, who was about to pick up the 'He's Bi', picked up the national jade seal, couldn't help but stopped strangely and asked.
"Something weird!"
"The moment I touched it, I seemed to see an illusion..."
"I……"
"I saw Shi Feixuan, she wanted to kill me and stabbed me several times!
"
Xu Ziling first subconsciously touched his chest and neck, and after finding that they were intact and without any blood stains, he relaxed slightly and said this with a clear conscience.
Of course, he did not tell everything honestly. For example, within a short moment, he had an affair with the master concubine Xuanshi Xianzi, who he had only met once in the illusion, and was finally stabbed to death by the other party on the bed. He only died before he died.
Tell me what happened when you woke up.
"phantom?"
"Is it that evil?"
"No way?"
Hearing this, Kou Zhong was not only not afraid, but he eagerly stepped forward and stared at the jade seal that was emitting strange fluctuations on the ground. After that, he resolutely leaned over and grabbed it.
Next second!
"!
"
as expected!
Under Xu Ziling's worried gaze, Kou Zhong's eyes widened in an instant, and at the same time his eyes shrank violently, as if he had seen something terrible, and he had obviously entered that kind of fantasy.
Then, little beads of sweat appeared on Kou Zhong's face, as if he was struggling or exercising violently, and he didn't recover for a long time?
"Young Master Zhong!?"
Seeing this, Xu Ziling wanted to step forward to help the other party and knock down the evil He's Bi.
"Don't move!"
?(?????????)??
"Let him continue, it's not a good idea for you to touch him now!"
??(??￣?￣)????
Fortunately, Annie was nearby at this time, so she called out to Xu Ziling and explained reluctantly:
"That broken stone is quite strange. It can test your state of mind. Let him continue!"
?(ψ｀▽′)o
Anne knew what kind of hallucinations Kou Zhong was experiencing, and the spiritual experience like the 'Nanke Yimeng' spell was indeed quite rare. Although she had never thought about being their master seriously,
She could barely decide what should be stopped and what should not be stopped.
Of course, the most important thing is that she is in a good mood now. At another time, she wouldn't have cared so much!
"Is it really okay?"
"Oh well……"
Xu Ziling was a little worried about gains and losses. He thought that the visions that Kou Zhong experienced were the same as him, that he was in love with the master concubine Xuanshi Xianzi. His face couldn't help but look a little weird, he seemed to hesitate to speak, but he hesitated to speak.
Tangled look.
"ah!
"
Finally, after about a cup of tea, Kou Zhong recovered and exclaimed. Similar to Xu Ziling's situation just now, he once again missed the general and his family's jade and threw it to the wooden floor of the hall with a 'clang'.
.
"Young Master Zhong!"
"Are you OK?"
"Did you also see the vision of Fairy Shi?"
Seeing this, Xu Ziling hurried forward and asked urgently.
"What Master Fairy?"
"No!"
"I only saw mountains of corpses and seas of blood..."
Kou Zhong shook his head and said. After the panic, Kou Zhong's expression unexpectedly became solemn. He clenched his fists with a sullen face and stared at the piece of Heshi Bi. He didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.
.
"Eh?"
Σ(°△°|||)︴
Suddenly, before Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling could say anything and continue to study the Heshi Bi, Anne at the side suddenly turned her head and looked out the window.
"not good!"
"somebody is coming!"
And similarly, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling also sensed it.
Then, Kou Zhong, who had quick eyes and quick hands, hurried forward, grabbed the Heshi Bi and stuffed it into the storage bag he carried with him, causing the strange colorful light and energy that had originally dispersed throughout the hall to instantly
It disappears into nothingness.
“…..”
The next moment, a stunning woman with bare feet and fluttering clothes, like a fairy descending from the earth, appeared outside the window, and then floated directly in from the wide open window.
That’s right!
The person who came was none other than that saintly girl from the Yinkui sect. Her appearance was alluring to all beings. She was completely on the other extreme when it came to dating Cihang Jingzhai’s master concubine Xuan. She also claimed to be the woman who wanted to be Kou Zhong’s wife - Huan Huan!
"laugh!"
"Master!"
"Wu'er came to see you."
The first time she entered the hall, Huanwen of course took a few steps forward and saluted a certain little girl who was slumped on the bamboo mat, licking her head, and successfully got Annie's hand.
After making an impatient gesture, she stood up with a half-smile and turned to look at Kou Zhong, who was sweating profusely, and Xu Ziling, who was slightly guilty.
"..."
Then, something happened that shocked Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling.
"You two..."
"Stealing He's Bi!"
Na Huan first bit her lip and stared at the two of them with sharp eyes for a while, then she said so decisively.
"!
"
"Wha, what?!"
Hearing this, Kou Zhong's expression instantly became tense, and then he didn't even bother to wipe the sweat from his forehead. He looked at Huan Huan in disbelief and exclaimed:
"You're talking nonsense!"
"When did we get it?"
"That was obviously taken by "Shadow Assassin" Yang Xuyan and "Sentimental Young Master" Hou Xibai!"
He was indeed very nervous, but Kou Zhong, who was very sure that the other party had not seen it just now, still explained and refuted loudly.
"What is He's Bi?"
"Are you out of your mind and crazy?"
Xu Ziling also echoed.
"..."
Unfortunately, looking at the strange expressions of the two of them, Huanhua didn't believe it.
"I saw!"
"You secretly left the city at night last night, and the place you went to was in the direction of Jing Nian Zen Monastery!"
Then, after a pause, she continued:
"When I came to your residence in the middle of the night, I found that both of you were not in this garden!"
"Then……"
"When I heard the noise outside the city and chased after me, I saw two figures who looked very much like you. Although they were covered with faces, I could see that their backs were almost exactly the same as those of you two brothers!"
"This clearly shows..."
"It's you who stole He's Bi!"
Actually, Huanwen wasn't 100% sure about this, but that didn't stop her from coming here specifically to deceive the two of them.
"What nonsense!
"
"That's right!"
"We don't deny that we did go to Jing Nian Monastery last night, but we dare to swear to God that the Heshi Bi was not stolen by our two brothers!"
"Until just now, until you came, we didn't have any clue!"
Kou Zhong stared into Huan Huan's eyes without flinching at all and refuted loudly and confidently.
"That's right!"
"Miss Huanhan, we really didn't do that!"
"It's true!"
"For a long time, we got up and were wondering who took it!"
Xu Ziling next to him also nodded in support, joined in the rebuttal, and at the same time echoed Kou Zhong's words.
Because what they said was indeed the truth. If their master hadn't directly admitted it just now, the two brothers would have continued to be kept in the dark. Therefore, it was true that the Yinkui sect demon girl in front of them came in and accused them of stealing it.
It makes absolutely no sense.
"..."
(￢д￢.)
"It's really not you?"
"Then why did you go to Jing Nian Chan Monastery last night?"
Huanwan didn't pay attention to the bad little girl behind her who was frequently casting big eyes at Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling. Therefore, after thinking about it carefully but still not believing it, she just frowned for a moment.
After thinking for a while, he continued to ask.
"Of course I'm going to check out the spots!"
"We don't deny that we did go to Jing Nian Chan Monastery. In fact, many people went there last night. You saw the movement, right?"
"Anyway!"
"We didn't steal He's Bi, it really wasn't our doing!"
Kou Zhong spoke confidently, while an impatient look gradually appeared on his face.
"Wang Shichong told me yesterday that the He's Bi is at Jing Nian Temple, and of course we have to go visit it."
"But I don't think so..."
"We hadn't found it yet, but we saw that the monastery had exploded, and we had to sneak out quickly."
"If you don't believe me, look, are there any scars on both of us?"
"Last night, Yang Xuyan and Hou Xibai fought with those monks for dozens of rounds. If it were really us, there would be some scars on their faces and hands, right?"
Saying that, Kou Zhong quickly patted his chest and rolled up his sleeves as a sign. Then he pulled Xu Ziling over and motioned for the other party to prove it too.
"really!"
Xu Ziling also smiled and nodded, indicating that he completely agreed with Kou Zhong's point of view.
"..."
(ˉ▽￣~)Cut~~
"Don't be fooled, they actually took it!"
(′▽｀)..ｏ
"You can search their pockets. Maybe...you can actually find that broken stone called He's Bi?"
(゜▽＾*)
At this moment, completely ignoring the turmoil in the hearts of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, Annie suddenly talked about which pot should not be opened and which pot should be lifted, and encouraged Na Huan to take action and take a good look at Kou Zhong's storage
bag.
Anyway, Queen Anne has just woken up from her sleep now, and she is very interested to see what the expressions of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling will be when their secrets are discovered later. Moreover, she is not the first to do such a good thing to deceive her own apprentice.
I did it once, and now I don’t mind doing it again.
(…)
(￢?￢.)
Unfortunately……
What Anne never expected was that her honest words and encouraging expression would have the completely opposite effect at this time?
Isn’t this?
"..."
Huanwan frowned at first, and then looked at Annie's expression and tone that looked like she was joking but not quite, and suddenly felt a little unsure.
"Weird..."
"Are you really not you?"
Speaking of which, there is indeed no clear evidence for Huanwen, and what the two of them just said is very reasonable. In addition, the bald donkeys at Jingnian Temple themselves admitted that they were the "Shadow Assassin" Yang Xuyan and the "Sentimental Young Master"
Hou Xibai and the two men did it, but now she came to question Kou and Xu, it was indeed a bit too wild to speculate.
“If you don’t believe me, just search it!”
"Our brothers didn't steal it anyway!"
"that is!"
"Isn't He Shibi said to be very magical?"
"Go and have a look. Is there any place in our small courtyard where we can hide that thing?"
"or……"
"Show you our storage bag?"
As they talked, Kou Zhong and Xu Zijian angrily motioned to Huanhua to just go and search, and then they simply followed the words of a certain annoying little girl's master and personally took off the storage bags from their waists and pointed at Huanhan.
Pass it over so that the other person can see it for themselves.
"..."
Huanwan didn't say anything, nor did she actually check their storage bags, because she could tell that Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling didn't look like they were lying.
Then, looking at the look of a troubled little girl lying on the bamboo mat without disturbing anyone, Huanhua couldn't help but become a little suspicious again, wondering if she really suspected the two people in front of her.
, and what happened last night was really done by Yang Xuyan and Hou Xibai?
"Report!
"
"Commander!"
"Song lords Song Shidao and Song Yuzhi are visiting!"
At this moment, before anyone in the hall could say anything more, a follower of the Ssangyong Army suddenly jogged to the door of the hall and glanced at Huan Huan suspiciously before saluting and reporting loudly.
"!
"
"Forget it, since it wasn't you who did it..."
Hearing the arrival of the Song Clan, Huan Huan had to sigh, and then glanced at Kou Zhong resentfully before saying to Anne who was lying comfortably on the mat:
"Master~?"
"Huan'er will come look for you later?"
After saying that, Huanwan, who did not want to get entangled with the Song clan at this time, and did not want to embarrass her husband Kou Zhong and waste time at this critical moment, smiled seductively, and then floated out of the window.
"whispering sound!"
"hateful!"
"What do you mean by that bitch? What do you think of my place as a place where you can come and leave whenever you want?"
Seeing this, Kou Zhong angrily shouted out the window.
"In fact..."
"Young Master Zhong!"
"In a sense, as the hostess, she is really qualified to come and leave as she pleases?"
Although he really didn't want to mention that matter, Xu Ziling still had to mention it to Kou Zhong in a subtle way.
"!
"
"Ziling!"
"When you meet with people from the Song Dynasty later, please don't talk nonsense!"
"Brother, are you begging me?"
Hearing this, Kou Zhong was agitated, and when he knew what Xu Ziling was referring to, his originally indignant expression instantly collapsed, and then with a crying expression and tone, he began to plead with Xu Ziling.
"do not worry!"
"I can save it!"
"only......"
Saying that, Xu Ziling winked at Kou Zhong with some embarrassment, and motioned him to look at Little Master Anne, who was lying on a mat on the floor somewhere in the hall, seemingly wanting to sleep again.
Xu Ziling's meaning is obvious. He can definitely guarantee that he will not talk nonsense, but he is not sure whether others will talk nonsense.
