Nightmare Attack

Chapter 1684 Symbols
Yao Shunyu stared at him, not daring to relax in the slightest, now that he was seriously injured and almost blind in his left eye, he and Li Bai might not be rivals if they really had to fight.

"Don't be nervous, if I want to do something, you have no chance to cross the bridge." Lu Zhangyuan looked at the two calmly.

This sentence sounded like a stretch, but Li Baiyao, Shun Yu, and all of them tacitly did not deny it. After all, the way to leave was proposed by Lu Zhangyuan.

"I have no intention of hurting you. I am from the secret army under the command of the Night Watchman, and I specialize in dealing with some difficult cases. But I don't understand why you two don't choose to serve the country with your skills, but to join forces with those beasts like Crimson. .”

Yao Shunyu was taken aback when he heard this sentence, but he quickly realized that Lu Zhangyuan was also deceived, no, no, his memory was modified, and they had a similar experience in the mission of Grandpa Shui.

Li Bai pondered for a moment, then suddenly said: "Lu Zhangyuan, what is the code name of your secret army in the Night Watch?"

"We don't have code names, only numbers, and mine is 1."

Lu Zhangyuan didn't hide this, he really wanted to persuade the two people in front of him to change their ways and turn to righteousness, such capable and kind-hearted people should serve the country.

Shao Tong, who was parasitized by the chairman of the night watchman, has a code name of zero, and this Lu Zhangyuan has a code name of 1, which is the character second only to the chairman in the second generation of Crimson. Such a character is probably no match for Yao, Shun, Yu and Li Bai in their heyday. .

"Lv Zhangyuan, do you trust me?" Li Bai asked.

Lu Zhangyuan nodded, "Say it."

"Have you ever thought about why your code name is the same as Crimson?"

"Because we are trained in the way of those devils in Crimson, and our highest goal is to kill all of Crimson." Lu Zhangyuan took a deep breath, "If you want to kill a devil, you must first become a devil. While keeping good thoughts, the methods are more vicious than the devil."

"But you were deceived, you are also Crimson, the second generation of Crimson, this is the real code name given to you by the night watchman!"

"The upper echelons of the Night's Watch have betrayed, they are just using you to achieve their dark secret!"

"You are tools, tools that will be discarded at any time. We have seen Ling among you. His name is Shao Tong. He died with the president to save us." Li Bai paused, and Shao Tong's last cry came to mind. The words he uttered, and his pale face, "Of course, it's also to save himself. He doesn't want to be a puppet anymore, he wants to be free."

Lu Zhangyuan frowned, and what the other party said made him feel strange, "I don't know what you are talking about, there is no zero among us, and my code name is the most advanced."

Li Bai spoke quickly and explained, "The memories of all of you have been revised by the president. You are the second generation of Crimson, and Jiangcheng Wang Fugui and the others are the first generation of Crimson, yes, but they are also pitiful people, and both of them are also good people. , the information you received and your memories are all fake!"

Li Bai didn't have too much expectation of being able to convince Lu Zhangyuan, Yao, Shun and Yu. It was basically impossible for Lu Zhangyuan to change his inherent memory in a short time. He slowly stretched his hand behind his back. When things changed, he decided to pounce on Lu Zhangyuan and hugged Lu Zhangyuan.

Thinking of this, Yao Shunyu's patience was about to be exhausted, and his expression became more ferocious, "What exactly do you want?"

Lu Zhangyuan was silent. He looked at Li Bai with a complicated look in his eyes, "I don't know why, although what you said is incredible, but I have an inexplicable trust in you."

"Someone between us must have been scammed, and I'll go back and look for evidence."

Hearing this, even Li Bai was taken aback for a moment, "Go back?"

"Yes, I will go back and report to my superiors what happened during this mission, including the information you fed back. There must be an error in the intelligence at some point." Lu Zhangyuan's expression became serious, "They also portrayed you as You are demons who kill people without blinking an eye, but as far as I can see, you are definitely not evil people."

Thinking of what happened to Shao Tong, Li Bai couldn't help becoming nervous, "No, you can't go back. If you let the night watchman know that you have seen through their plot, then they will not let you go!"

"That's enough, Miss Li. After all, the night watchman is serving the country. The interior is definitely not as bad as you imagined. It is the crimson remnants of Jiangcheng King Fugui. I advise you not to get involved with them, so as not to bring disaster to Chiyu." It can be seen that Lu Zhangyuan has also endured Li Bai's slander against the night watchman to the limit.

After finishing speaking, Lu Zhangyuan cupped his hands to Li Baiyao, Shun Yu and the two, "You two, let's just leave now, there will be a time later!"

"Farewell, there will be a time later!" Li Bai also bowed his hand in return.

But it was much more embarrassing when it was Yao Shunyu's turn. He broke one of his arms, leaving one hand still hidden behind his back to grab the bomb, and he couldn't get it out for a while.

"That. There will be a period later, and the journey will be smooth!" Yao Shunyu pretended to bless him loudly. He didn't dislike Lu Zhangyuan, and what he rejected was his identity as the second generation of Crimson.

Fortunately, Lu Zhangyuan didn't care about it, and after saying "precious", he turned and left. He got into the woods and disappeared within a few breaths.

It wasn't until Lu Zhangyuan's figure completely disappeared that Li Baiyao and Shunyu heaved a sigh of relief. The two understood that according to Lu Zhangyuan's character, he would absolutely disdain to ambush them and wait for an opportunity to attack.

After a moment of silence, Li Bai withdrew his gaze and looked at Yao Shunyu with complex and regretful eyes, "Tell me. Did you say that Li Maochun was also deceived, until the end he was thinking about killing us, I remember the look in his eyes , he is not afraid of death, he just regrets not killing both of us before death."

Recalling Li Maochun's last performance, Yao, Shunyu also didn't know what to say for a while, the night watchman really deserved to die, those second-generation Crimson who had their memories modified thought they were punishing rape and eliminating evil, and upholding justice, but they didn't know They are just a tool, and they are being deceived until death.

Shaking his head, temporarily suppressing all the complicated things in his mind, they have more important things to do, "By the way, how do we get out of here?"

The bridge was broken, and now there was a forest in the night before them.

"Let's go, since Empress Zhusheng has fallen into the water and died, then this deadlock will be resolved. I think we can find Jiangcheng Wang Fugui and them no matter which way we go. Let's meet first and then we can talk." Li Bai didn't think much of it. Too much to worry about.

As soon as the words were finished, Yao, Shunyu suddenly turned his head to look at the river, the river was pitch black and very calm, with a waning moon reflected in the water.

"What's wrong?" Li Bai suddenly became vigilant.

"I, I feel as if something is staring at me, just for a moment." Yao Shunyu explained in a hurry, his eyes were still searching the river surface inch by inch, and those broken bridge piers were not let go.

Looking at the dark river, Li Bai also had a bad feeling. He pulled Yao Shunyu's sleeve and urged, "Don't dawdle any longer. Let's leave here first and then make plans."

Then the two went into the forest together, and soon disappeared.

The river surface, the riverside, and the vicinity of the bridge piers were all quiet. After Li Baiyao, Shunyu left, it seemed that all living things had been lost here for a while, and it was very deserted.

But after going on like this for about 10 minutes, under a big tree, Yao Shunyu slowly poked his face out. He stared at the lake, his expression became more and more strange, "There is nothing."

Li Bai was naturally under the other tree, and she pulled Yao Shunyu towards the depths of the mountain forest, "Okay, don't think too much, let's go to Jiangcheng Wang Fugui, to be honest, I'm still quite afraid of that man named Wu Guy, but if I don’t see him during the mission, I’m going to panic.”

Wu's combat index is obvious to all. Those who have been able to fight him back and forth for such a long time are all top-notch weird, and they can be counted on one hand. As long as Wu wakes up, their lives will have a strong guarantee .

"I don't know what's going on with Jiangcheng Wang Fugui, and Tang Qisheng wished them success. They corresponded to the information about Jiangcheng Wang Fugui, but they."

Following Li Baiyao, Shunyu trekking in the mountains and forests, none of them would have thought that there was a waning moon floating on the Heishui River at this moment.

The waning moon is like the reflection of the moon in the sky, but slowly looking up at the sky, there is no moon in the sky, and the large dark clouds are extremely low, covering the stars and the moon. Looking at it for a long time, it even makes people feel depressed, as if there must be Big things happen.

Zooming out and raising the angle of view, not far from the waning moon in the water, there is a place in the dark lake with a color that is obviously different from the surroundings. There is a piece of black-blue, and the black-blue is motionless, as if a huge monster is lurking.

In the former Chijie Temple and now in the Qingyun Temple, night has already fallen. This is the first time the three of them have seen the temple at night, and they can't help feeling novelty.

Fatty Jiangcheng Ye Qiutang and the three walked on the small road in Qingyun Temple, the atmosphere was very depressed.

"What's the point?" Fatty couldn't help complaining, "Look at that Taoist priest Xuande, that is, the monk Huide before he was affected. I can't tell!"

What happened just now kept flashing through Fatty's mind, and he was so angry that he couldn't breathe.

Just now they sneaked to the Taoist lodgings that had been there during the day, the monk Huicong, who should be called the monk Xuancong, was recuperating here, and Xuancong was said to be the only closed disciple of Taoist Lingxiao who survived the catastrophe.

The explanation given by Taoist Ling Xiao is that Xuan Cong stabbed a picture of suppressing demons on his back, and this picture saved Xuan Cong's life in times of crisis.

And just now, they also sneaked into the room while the guarding monk went to have a urinate, but before they could ask any questions, they were caught by the Xuande Taoist priest who happened to come to round the room. It was a coincidence , Xuan Ming and these old acquaintances were also there, and the scene was once very chaotic.

Just like what Ye Qiutang said just now, there is no such a coincidence in the world. They observed for a long time before finding an opportunity to sneak in, and they scouted the surrounding area beforehand, and there was no one at all. The same as drilled out.

Even the fat man could see that there was a problem inside, Xuande Xuanming seemed to be leaving them alone, he turned his head to look at Jiang Cheng, only to see Jiang Cheng frowned slightly, his fists were slightly clenched and then loosened, and he had been with Jiang Cheng for a long time , the fat man knew that he was thinking about the problem, and the process was not smooth, there were differences to a large extent, and he was making up his mind.

"Don't think about it yourself, tell us about it." Ye Qiutang was also impatient, after all, there were only three of them left tonight, and if nothing else happened, this would be their last night in Qingyun Temple.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Cheng looked at Ye Qiutang, "Have you seen the picture behind Xuan Cong?"

When Ye Qiutang thought of this, he became angry, "No, only you could see it from the angle at that time. Just as I was about to see it, Xuande Xuanming appeared and drove us away."

At that time, the scene was tense for a while. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Xuan Cong in disheveled clothes. The most important thing was that Jiang Cheng was pulling Xuan Cong's clothes vigorously. Xuande and Xuanming exploded at that time. The people and horses almost clashed.

"Doctor, if you hadn't stopped me, there would have been a fight just now. Do you remember that Xuan Ming? That kid is not a good guy. He had a knife in his pocket. It wasn't big, but I saw him reaching in to touch it. I'll see it when it's time." The fat man emphasized.

Jiang Cheng frowned, and his voice became louder, "I didn't mean to say that, you were standing at the wrong angle just now, I saw the tattoo on Xuan Cong's back, although I didn't look carefully, the tattoo definitely changed."

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Cheng continued to recall, "The Taoist tattoo has become bigger than before, and I even faintly saw a symbol under the Taoist tattoo."

"Yes, that's right, it's that symbol!" Jiang Cheng nodded resolutely.

"What symbol?" Ye Qiutang asked with wide eyes.

"It's the cross pattern of the Buddhist gate, just under the demon-suppressing map of that gate." Jiang Cheng recalled.

As soon as this remark came out, Ye Qiutang's face changed instantly. Xuan Cong is a Taoist priest, and there is a Taoist map of suppressing demons behind him, which can be explained, but it is strange to have the cross pattern of Buddhism.

"Could it be that Xuan Cong had converted to Buddhism before he joined Ling Xiaozi?" Ye Qiutang's tone was weird, obviously she also felt that this statement was untenable.

But Ye Qiutang couldn't figure it out, but the fat man seemed to understand a little bit. He slowly opened his eyes wide, and then looked at Jiang Cheng in disbelief, who nodded to him with an ugly expression.

The fat man thumped in his heart, if this was the case, then tonight would be complicated, no monks or priests could be trusted.

"Does this look like a competition?" Jiang Cheng said, "Whether it is Abbot Fuji or Taoist Ling Xiao, they are all competing for the body of Monk Huicong."

"The way they compete is to gain our trust," Jiang Cheng added.

"That's why Taoist Ling Xiao and Abbot Fuji are all fake, they are actually two ghosts!" Thinking about it in this way, Fatty suddenly felt that everything made sense.

Shaking his head, Jiang Cheng corrected with a serious look: "It's not a ghost, it's two strange things that have become climate."
