Strange Tale

When he woke up, it was already daylight, and he had no dreams all night, Si Ren sat up and stretched: he finally recovered, and his mood seemed to relax a lot.But after a few minutes of stretching, thinking of Qilin, he immediately became anxious again: Tonight is the last chance, we must succeed.

For the next whole day, except for a soldier who came to deliver lunch, Si Ren didn't see anyone, and he couldn't go anywhere.Someone was guarding the door, and the windows were shut.The most exasperating thing is that Si Ren understood why he was able to see Long Jiu so smoothly last night, but did not encounter the barrier like the first time he came to the General's Mansion, because he himself was sealed in the barrier, and That is to say, he can cast spells to see the situation in any room within the barrier, but he cannot use invisibility to go outside.

Soon night fell, and Si Bian knew that he couldn't wait any longer, so he walked back and forth twice in the room, and he took out the three feathers that Jinji gave him.

After setting up the magic circle, Dudu Wan just laid out the map and took out the tortoise shell and sheep shoulder bone, when he heard a gunshot not far away.

"Go and have a look." Long Jiu often said to Ye Ye.

I also often leave, and I look up at the full moon in the sky alone, and it seems that there are dark clouds floating over.

"How about next time."

"No, continue." Long Jiu was very decisive, and walked over to kneel in front of Dudu.

Dudu didn't try to dissuade him any more, she stretched out her hand and pointed the long nail on Long Jiu's brow and pierced it hard.

Long Jiu's hair and eyes turned red, and bright red blood flowed out along Dudu's long nails.Then she painted the blood on the tortoise shell and sheep bone, raised her arms and raised her head, and began to chant spells towards the night sky and the stars and moon.

As the sound of Dudu chanting the incantation became louder, a wind blew up around them, and then Dudu's silver hair flew around with claws and teeth, the tortoise shell and the sheep bone buzzed and vibrated, and the blood on them flowed down and pooled together. Seeing the blood flow, it is necessary to point out the direction.

"Ah—"

A guard was thrown into the courtyard, followed by Si Ren, and the ceremony was interrupted.

"What are you doing here?!" Long Jiu stood up.

"I just figured out that you will have a bloody disaster tonight, but your people stopped me from coming to find you."

A grinning guard ran in again with one arm swinging and pointed at Si Ren, "General, he insists on seeing you right away, we can't stop him no matter what, many people came to help..."

Long Jiu waved his hand, "Okay, it's okay. Go down and find someone to connect your arm. Take it to the courtyard gate."

The one with the dislocated arm helped the one thrown in by Si Ren first and walked away together.Long Jiu walked towards Si Ren and looked behind him at the same time, the moment the door was closed, he saw that the courtyard had collapsed.

"How often?"

Si Ren frowned, "I sealed it in the barrier."

"He is not your opponent?"

"Hmph, maybe I can't compare to him in strength. Anything else... Oh? What's wrong with you?"

As Long Jiu approached, Si Ren saw a drop of wet blood on the bridge of his nose. He guessed that it was caused by Dudu's tricks, and immediately remembered the scene he saw in Dudu's room, "It's bleeding again ? How much blood is enough for you to bleed like this?!"

Long Jiu tilted his head, "Didn't you figure out that I will have a bloody disaster tonight?"

"Uh……"

Si Renzheng didn't know how to answer, there was a loud bang, and a big stone fell from the sky behind Long Jiu.

"Ajiu, be careful!"

Before Dudu finished speaking, the big stone had already grown hands and feet, and although its shape was crude, it could still be seen as a human being.

Long Jiu turned around, and the stone man was punching him down.

Si Ren pulled Long Jiu over in time and raised his hand to block his fist, "Where did the monster come from?!"

The stone man let out a low growl and changed to attack Si Ren, and Si Ren dragged Long Jiu with one hand and pulled out a mahogany sword from the backpack as if by magic.The sword was obviously longer than Bao, Long Jiu looked at the sword in surprise and his eyes widened.

Si Ren slashed over with his sword, and the stone man turned into a pile of fine sand and rolled away.Si Ren quickly threw away the wooden sword, made a seal with both hands, and cast a magic spell.All of a sudden, there was a strong gust of wind, sand and rocks were flying, Dudu Wan and Long Jiu had to close their eyes.

When the wind stopped, Long Jiu and Dudu opened their eyes: the stone man had disappeared without a trace.

"Ah—it's so dangerous!" Si Ren stopped his posture and stood up again, "Look, thanks to me, I figured out that you are in danger, otherwise I don't know what will happen. Sigh? How could you offend the stone demon? ?”

Long Jiu and Dudu looked at each other without saying a word.

Si Ren put his arm on his chin and continued to talk to himself, "Oh──I see, someone like you who has lived for countless years probably can't remember how many fairies he has offended, right? Well, it's all right now , the disaster I calculated for you is over, I have nothing else to do and I will leave first. Farewell. Goodbye."

After speaking, Si Ren turned to leave.

"Mr. Si." Long Jiu called out to him.

Si Ren turned around with an ugly smile on his face, "Is there anything else?"

Half of Long Jiu raised his eyebrows, "Isn't it only three days until tomorrow morning? Are you afraid that something will happen to me later?"

"Uh..." Si Ban raised his hand and wiped his face with his sleeve, and the sweat mixed with the dust that was blown on his face just now was blurred, "The result I calculated in the room before is just this difficult one. , nothing will happen again, don't worry. That... Xiaolin doesn't know where he is yet, I really have to go back quickly..."

Long Jiu took out a handkerchief and handed it to Si Ren...

"Huh?" Si Ren was taken aback.

"your face."

"Oh." Si Ren took it and wiped it on his face twice, then put the handkerchief back into Long Jiu's hand, "I..."

"Walk slowly without sending."

Only Long Jiu and Dudu Diwan were left in the courtyard, and Dudu said: "The stone demon was clearly summoned by him."

"I know."

"Then you let him go?"

"I've endured him for several days, so of course I can't just give up all my previous efforts. If you guess well, you should soon know what he's here for."

"Ah Jiu."

"What's wrong?" Long Jiu turned his head.

Dudu lowered his head and looked in front of himself, "Look."

Long Jiu walked over, handed Dudu the tortoise shell and sheep bones and pointed to the map, "Your blood disappeared. Alas, I wasted an opportunity, and it's all due to that Si Ren."

Both the tortoise shell and the sheep bone cracked into strange shapes, Long Jiu poured a small pebble stuck in the crack into his palm, "Is it because of the wind just now?"

Dudu shook his head, "I've been using these things for so long, and I've long since been fearless. They're not ordinary mortal things, but ordinary human mages' methods have attracted gusts of wind. How could it be possible?"

Long Jiu and Du Du were puzzled, when suddenly someone shouted from outside the courtyard: "No! The dungeon has been stolen!"

Alone lost all the paper figurines controlling the living soul, and all the doors of the cells were opened.Du Du Wan was furious, and Long Jiu promised to find both the paper figurine and the lost soul.

As soon as he left the General's Mansion, Si Ren threw off his long legs and ran all the way.When he passed the first corner, a light figure fell beside him.Si Ren didn't slow down, but the figure started to run along with him.

"Is the method I told you correct?" Si Ren asked.

"Well, it went in very smoothly." Jin Ji replied.

"I really can't delay any longer, have you got what you want?"

"got it."

"Then take me to see Xiao Lin."

"He's with my real body, follow me."

Just as Si Ren was about to agree, he suddenly found that the surrounding fog was getting heavier, and then the General's Mansion appeared in front of them. They were obviously running in the opposite direction!

"Oops!" Si Ren stopped quickly.

Jin Ji also hurriedly stopped and did not dare to move again.

Two figures, one tall and one short, came out of the dense fog, they were Long Jiu and Ye Chang.

The four of them stood at a certain distance, and Long Jiu spoke first, "So you went through so much trouble to steal your soul?"

"Did you really know already?"

"What do you mean?"

"I guess you're not that stupid."

"So you know I've been suspicious of you?"

"It's also speculation."

"Then you still..."

"Since you didn't expose me from the beginning, it's obviously because you were curious about what I wanted to do, so I granted your wish. It just so happens that I can easily get it too. Isn't this the best of both worlds?"

"Okay, even if you plan to achieve your goal." Long Jiu looked at Jin Ji, "Then tell me: why? Why did you help her?"

"because……"

As soon as Si Ren opened his mouth, Jin Ji immediately leaned on his body and pinched him secretly.

"What do you think? Little paralytic." Jin Ji hugged Si Ren tightly, and glanced at Long Jiu with raised eyes, "It's better for children not to ask questions about adults."

Long Jiu avoided Jin Ji's gaze and looked at Si Ren, "I don't believe it, I don't believe you are a person who values ​​sex and despises friends."

Jin Ji raised her head and narrowed her eyes fiercely at Si Ren.

There is no other way, Si Ren had no choice but to grit his teeth and sneer, "'Prime sex over friends'? 'Forget justice'? Are you a 'friend' with me? Is there 'righteousness' between us?"

"What did you say?"

"I saved you once before, and entered your dream once. Yesterday you saved me again, and walked through my dream once. We don't owe anyone anything. Do you think that you will come into contact with me a few times? Can you become friends with me? I am a human, and you are a demon, how can they be compared?"

Long Jiu's hair and eyes suddenly changed color, "Do you dare to say it again?"

"I never intended to treat you as a friend, I am a human being, and you are..."

Before finishing talking here, a fire dragon sprang out from behind Long Jiu and went straight to Si Ren and Jin Ji.

Si Ren jumped to dodge, and Jin Ji disappeared in a blink of an eye and turned into three emerald green feathers floating down.

Long Jiu was stunned for a moment and retracted the fire dragon, and often rushed over to snatch a feather.Si Ren caught the cloth bag that fell from Jinji's body, grabbed the other two in a hurry, turned and ran.

Si Ren cast a spell and ran away in the blink of an eye.Long Jiu went to Ye Chang's side and picked up the feather in his hand, looked at it and smelled it, then put the feather away, and Long Jiu walked towards the direction Si Ren left without haste.

I also often know: Jin Ji doesn't have much time to live.
