I live on the 18th floor of Nether Community
Chapter 76 Human Skin Lantern
Jiang Miao's hair was already dry, looking fluffy, and with those half drooping eyes, it made people feel comfortable and lazy.
"That's the way it is. The next step we have to do is to decipher the code on the butterfly's wings as soon as possible."
Qi Chi looked down at the marks Jiang Xiao imitated on the table while dipping in tea, and said in a low voice, "I seem to have seen these patterns somewhere."
"Do you recognize it?" Jiang Miao moved closer.
Xi slowly shook his head: "Let me think about it..."
"Okay." Jiang Miao took a cigarette in his mouth, bit the holder, and asked thoughtfully, "Brother Hua, do you think you want to tell Sir You about Ajiao later?"
"why not?"
Jiang Xiao rested his chin on his hand, raised his eyes halfway and said, "You Ji is so impatient, I'm afraid that if he cares about it, he will mess up, and another impulsiveness will cause side effects."
"It makes sense, but..." Qi Chi looked at Jiang Xiaowen and said, "If you are the missing person now, then I will definitely not allow anyone to hide it from me for any reason."
"..."
"Although You sir is impatient, he is not a person who disregards the overall situation. What he is encountering now is A Jiao's matter again. I think he should be very cautious with every step he takes."
When the two of them reached this point, the door of the house was suddenly pushed open from the outside.You Ji was also drenched, and when he saw Jiang Miao, he quickly walked towards him and asked urgently, "Did you find it?"
Jiang Miao glanced at Qi Chi again, then grabbed the lighter lying on the table, and lit the cigarette in his mouth.
"found it."
You Ji's pupils trembled, he grabbed Jiang Xiao's bathrobe collar, and picked him up: "Where is it?!"
Jiang Miao broke away from You Ji's grasping hand, frowned and said, "You first promise me not to act rashly."
"What's up with him!"
"It's safe for now." Jiang Xiao pushed You Ji on the chair, "Listen to me and tell you slowly, there is no need to rush this matter."
……
Countless small raindrops condensed on the glass of the hotel window, slowly sliding down from top to bottom, forming a stream of water marks again.The fireplace in the house was burning brightly, dividing the world into two parts with temperature.
The ashtray in front of You Ji was already full in a blink of an eye. After he extinguished the last cigarette between his fingers, he looked at Jiang Xiao and asked in a low voice, "How long will it take to decipher the butterfly's wings?"
"I've said it all, don't be in a hurry." Jiang Xiao sighed, "Besides, it's useless for you to be in a hurry. Right now, deciphering the word mark on the wings is the only way to open the 'chrysalis'."
After hearing this, You Ji gritted his big teeth, stared at his red eyes, and repeatedly picked out the cigarette butts in the ashtray that he could barely take two more puffs of.
Seeing this, Jiang Miao handed him the unfinished cigarette in his hand.
You Ji took a deep breath, exhaled the smoke slowly, and finally said hoarsely after a while: "Understood, I won't act rashly."
"Good comrade." Jiang Miao patted Downstream Ji on the shoulder, "Brother Xiaohua and I will go to the Luoshen Statue again tomorrow, so you can take Xiaojiao outside to relax."
"I'll be with you." You Ji said with a cold face, "I said I won't lose my temper."
"Brother." Jiang Miao touched his cheek with his tongue, looked at You Ji and sighed softly, "Treasure the opportunity you have to get along with him now. After all, we will leave this world sooner or later."
"..."
You Ji was silent.
At this time, a little paper figurine suddenly appeared from nowhere, and began to climb up along You Ji's arm.
"What are you doing?" You Ji frowned and said to Jiang Miao, "Get your lackey away."
"Are you sure?" Jiang Miao raised his eyebrows and said, "I thought you would need a substitute when you took Xiaojiao out."
"..."
"Little Q, come back." Jiang Miao hooked his hands at the little paper figurine, "Didn't you see that others don't want to see you?"
"Don't!" You Ji hurriedly stopped, then turned his head and snorted, "Let me help you, thank you."
……
The world in this painting seems to never have sunny days, only the difference between heavy rain and small rain.
Just like this moment, it's playing big again.The fine raindrops fell into the river, creating disorderly ripples.The stone lions at the head of the bridge were also scoured brightly, quietly watching the pedestrians rushing to avoid the rain.
And mixed in this market, there are two strange people.Holding an oil-paper umbrella together, they kept walking against the crowd.They all wear masks, one is Tang Sanzang with white face and red lips, and the other is Sun Monkey with hairy face and thunderous mouth.
Tang Sanzang is a head shorter than Sun Houzi, so he should be a boy in stature.From time to time, he would turn his head to the side, stand on tiptoes, and whisper a few words in Monkey Sun's ear.Monkey Sun would patiently bend down time and time again so that he could get closer to him more easily.
"Are you hungry?" Sun Monkey asked.
"Didn't you just eat it?" Tang Sanzang's voice sounded clear and clean, like a clear spring.
"That's right, then don't eat it."
"Actually, can you eat some more?"
The two spoke at the same time, then looked at each other awkwardly, and then a smile appeared on the faces under the mask.
"Do you know Qiweixuan?" Sanzang asked.
Monkey Sun shook his head.
Sanzang: "It's the most famous restaurant in Sui Town! I've always heard it mentioned by Ke Ke Li's servants before, and I've always wanted to try it."
"Then go." Sun Houzi said, "Find a private room and remove the mask first."
"I think you're so funny." Tang Sanzang looked into the depths through the two holes in Sun Houzi's eyes, his pupils glistening with water.
With just one glance, Sun Houzi was stunned.
"Did you see that archway? Qiweixuan is open there." Tang Sanzang said excitedly, "Let's compete to see who gets there first, okay?!"
After finishing speaking, he rushed into the rain curtain, and his happy laughter disappeared in the streets and alleys.
"Hey! Ah... it's going to get wet!"
Seeing that he failed to stop him, Sun Houzi sighed helplessly, raised his feet and chased after the boy.
"Be careful not to fall—!"
……
The blood-red lotus seeds glowed brightly, and a large number of ghost butterflies in the grotto were attracted by this yin energy, rushing towards the blood-red lotus seeds like moths to a flame.
Qi Chi saw the timing and drew a talisman across the air, and a light curtain instantly formed outside the lotus seeds, enveloping all the butterflies.As soon as he stretched out his hand, the lotus seeds that sealed the butterfly flew into his palm.After Qichi put away the lotus seeds, he took out a new one and repeated the same steps.
"When will this be caught?" Jiang Miao looked at the butterflies gathered again, and quickly folded a small paper figurine out of the tin foil in the cigarette case.
Jiang Miao: "Go, help Brother Xiaohua catch butterflies."
The little paper man looked very excited, jumped left and right on the ground, and then split into several in an instant, and rushed towards the swarms of butterflies like elementary school students after school.
At this moment, Qi Chi's face was faintly showing some fatigue.Jiang Miao couldn't bear it, stepped forward to put his shoulder on him and said, "You take a rest first, I'll come."
"It's okay." Qi Chi shook his head, suddenly his eyes darkened, and the bloody lotus seed held between his fingers "swish" and shot behind Jiang Xiao.
The lotus seeds brushed against Jiang Miao's side cheeks with the wind, and with a "pop", a butterfly was cut in half from the middle behind Jiang Miao's head.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Xiao asked suspiciously.
"There's something wrong with this butterfly." Qi Chi bent down and picked up the broken butterfly, carefully wrapped the butterfly wings and put it away in front of Jiang Miao, "Look at its belly." Then Following Qichi's words, Jiang Miao saw that the butterfly's abdomen was slightly glowing blue.
He frowned: "Spiritual knowledge?"
"It stands to reason that Nether Butterfly only needs to absorb Yin Qi to survive, and does not need to absorb spiritual knowledge at all..." Xi Chi's eyes sank, "Unless..."
"Unless the butterfly queen just arrived at the ovulation period." After Jiang Xiao finished speaking, he smiled bleakly, "This is troublesome."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a strong humming sound from inside the grotto.Accompanied by that voice, a gust of wind swept towards the two of them.
Jiang Miao took a closer look, where is the wind?It was clearly tens of thousands of Nether Butterflies.It's just that these butterflies changed their harmless and fragile appearance. At this time, their abdomens became shiny and huge, and a sharp and slender needle grew out of each of their buttocks.
"Be careful." Qi Chi and Jiang Miao leaned back and said, "Once you are pricked by the tail needles of these underworld butterflies, the spiritual consciousness in your body will be pulled away by them. Moreover, the needles contain extremely strong anesthetics, which will It makes people stiff and unable to move."
Jiang Miao gritted his teeth: "The butterfly is afraid of light and fire, so it is most suitable to attack with fire. But it is really tricky not to damage the butterfly's wings now."
With just one sentence, Jiang Miao and Qi Chi were surrounded by a wall of underworld butterflies...
"Tsk, if I knew it, I would have brought some Miehui Ling." Although Jiang Xiao was playing tricks on his mouth, the muscles around him were already tense.He held the silver whip tightly in his hand.
"Jiang Miao." Qi Chi called out in a low voice, "What's the hit rate of your whip?"
"A conservative estimate, seventy to eighty percent." Jiang Xiao said.
"Don't be conservative." Qichi took out a few lotus seeds from his bosom, looked at the butterfly group calmly, and said, "Do you do your best?"
Jiang Miao hooked the corners of his lips: "One hundred."
"Okay." Qi Chi smiled, "Let's play a game, does the little bee know?"
"Of course." Jiang Miao flicked the whip to the ground, making a crisp sound, "I'm an expert at classic games on red and white machines."
"I'm on the left, you're on the right." Qi Chi said in a deep voice, "Just take off the wings, and compare who has more."
"Okay, what if you lose?"
"Up to you." Xi Chi paused, then said, "What if you lose?"
Jiang Miao grinned: "I'll follow you too."
"Very good." Qi Chi nodded and said, "Don't go back on your word."
"It's a word."
As soon as Jiang Miao finished speaking, Qi Chi's eyes suddenly sank, and the blood lotus seeds in his hand flew towards half of the butterfly wall in an instant.
The lotus seeds flashed red, and several vines sprouted instantly.The vine seemed to have eyes of its own, and every time it struck precisely in the middle of the butterfly, it split it in two, and the wings fell completely.
Now that you have said so, how can I miss this opportunity to "follow you"?
Xichi waved his hand in the air, and a bright light penetrated into the group of underworld butterflies again.
"I didn't expect Brother Xiaohua to have such a strong desire to win."
Jiang Miao shook his head, then stopped smiling, swung his whip, and swept away a row of butterflies' wings one after another.
After a series of clean and beautiful movements, he still didn't forget to whistle loudly at Qichi, raised his eyebrows and said, "Praise me."
Qi Chi smiled faintly: "Excellent."
……
"That's the way it is. The next step we have to do is to decipher the code on the butterfly's wings as soon as possible."
Qi Chi looked down at the marks Jiang Xiao imitated on the table while dipping in tea, and said in a low voice, "I seem to have seen these patterns somewhere."
