After 100 years of leatherworking, I have become a giant in the magic sect

Chapter 9 9. Where do you think this is?

Early the next morning, Song Yan hurriedly finished today's shadow puppets, then came outside the leather-making house, stretched his arms and yawned.

The mountain peaks in the distance stand towering and densely clustered, as if they have fallen from the blue sky.

The view of the mountains towards the main peak of Shadow Puppet Peak was clear, but on the other side there was a strange bloody blur, which was fishy mist.

For more than a month, Song Yan looked at the fishy fog for a long time, and it almost never cleared. Even though there were continuous autumn rains at night for a few days, when he looked at it during the day, he saw that the fog did not decrease but increased.

The thick fishy mist swirled and intertwined quietly, like a red python wrapped around it, like a pool of red sea.

The fishy fog that his leatherworking room encounters at night is quite fatal to the handymen, but in fact it may just be the shallow residual waves of the high tide of the Red Sea.

I don’t know what the center of the fishy mist looks like.

Song Yan could only see outside, but just this scene was enough to make him feel scared.

But then, he thought again that he seemed to have ghost roots.

That's okay.

As a mortal, he had been in and out of ghosts for forty years, but he didn't die or go crazy. The ghost spirit roots he cultivated were not in vain.

Just as he was looking into the distance, a voice came from his side.

"Brother Song."

Song Yan turned his head and saw a man and a woman standing beside him.

The man is about thirty, slightly fat, and looks very friendly.

The woman is in her mid-twenties, with a serious expression.

Song Yan knew both of these two people. They were the new handymen in the same batch as him, and they were also two of the five people who succeeded in "absorbing the "Xuanqi Guidance Technique" that day.

The man's name is Sheng Shengzhu, and the woman's name is Wen Erniu.

Song Yan also returned the gift.

Sheng Shengzhu smiled cordially and said, "Brother Song, we are in the same batch. Why don't we go shopping together at the foot of the mountain market so that we can take care of you."

Wen Erniu's serious face relaxed, and she said sincerely: "The situation at the bottom of the mountain is unknown, so let's stay together, Brother Song. There will be a long time to come, and there is no telling that we will become true brothers. We should form a good relationship at this time."

The truth seems to be such that it makes sense no matter from any angle.

However, Song Yan shook his head and said with a smile: "I don't want to go today."

Sheng Shengzhu chuckled and said, "There's no rush. When Brother Song wants to go down the mountain one day, let's go together."

Song Yan narrowed his eyes slightly.

He clearly remembered that after nightfall, Shengzhu and Wen Erniu lived in the same house, and the two of them were not as nervous as ordinary handymen when they first learned the "Xuanqi Guidance Technique".

Besides, the way they talk and behave is very different from their names.

This shows that "Dazhu" and "Er Niu" are most likely fake names.

While they were talking here, Wen Erniu didn't stop. She greeted the leatherworking room, smiled and waved, and shouted: "There should be a lot of good things in the market. If you can get some contribution points, you can form a group together." Team!"

As soon as she spoke, many handymen ran out.

Those handymen originally wanted to get close to these "future official disciples", but now they added that they "didn't dare to go down the mountain alone to the market to buy things", so they ran out one by one and said, "Let's go down the mountain with Sister Wen." ", "And Brother Dazhu, we are together, everyone will be taken care of."

However, not all the handymen came, and some did not plan to form a team, but wanted to go down the mountain by themselves.

Sheng Shengzhu was still looking at Song Yan with a smile, as if expecting him to agree.

However, Song Yan decisively refused, saying "I still have to make leather" and walked away.

Shengzhu was still laughing, as if he didn't care, then turned to look at the new handymen, and started chatting in a chatty style, and then said: "Everyone, hurry up and make today's shadow puppets, and then go down the mountain. If anyone is too late, I will help.”

Suddenly a handyman said: "How dare you bother Brother Dazhu?"

Sheng Shengzhu chuckled: "It's impossible to talk about it, we all come together and help each other, haha."

Song Yan sat back down.

Qiu Lianyue said nervously: "Brother Song, aren't you going today?"

Song Yan shook his head and glanced at the old handymen in the distance.

He found that except for the handymen who had been sent here in the past two months, those no matter how old they were seemed to be indifferent to going down the mountain. Even if they had contribution points, they did not want to leave here at all.

He glanced at Qi Yao in the distance again.

Qi Yao was sitting opposite yesterday's new roommate, also indifferent.

Among this group of handymen, there are only five people who have successfully learned the "Xuanqi Guidance Technique", namely: Song Yan, Qi Yao, Shengzhu, Wen Erniu and a tall and heroic handyman named Xu Changjun .

Xu Changjun didn't move either.

He looked into the distance again.

In the distance, Wang Susu was sitting among the old handymen. She was making leather in a leisurely manner, her big eyes blinking brightly, as if she was indifferent to the excitement outside.

He looked at those old handymen who "had no desire to consume" again, and suddenly became thoughtful.

In one afternoon, Song Yan slowly made a second ordinary shadow puppet.

After finishing it, evening has arrived.

The mist is like a red devil crawling out of the abyss, climbing up the cliff little by little with its sharp claws.

The handymen in the leatherworking room rushed out.

Qiu Lingyue took her life-saving arm and walked towards the house.

Song Yan frowned, because he found that the group of people who went down the mountain to Shifang this afternoon had not come back yet, including Shengzhu and Wen Erniu.

At this moment, a beautiful figure hurriedly walked from the crowd, quickly reached Song Yan's side, and then said lightly: "Don't trust anyone. If you really want to go to the market, then go early in the morning. The earlier, the better." Okay, go early and come back early, don’t linger!”

Song Yan looked sideways.

It’s Qi Yao!

But Qi Yao just said these words and walked away quickly.

Under normal circumstances, that's it.

However, Qi Yao suddenly felt someone grabbing her hand. She was startled, her eyebrows stood up, and her arms subconsciously twisted and shook, which was obviously a common technique used by some practitioners.

However, she failed to shake off the person holding her arm.

Qi Yao looked away angrily, only to see Song Yan holding her arm.

"What?"

"Sister Qi, why don't we form a team?"

"Why are you so shameless?" Qi Yao couldn't believe her ears. She kindly reminded her, but the man actually held her hand and wanted to team up with him. It was just a slap in the face.

Song Yan smiled and said, "Actually, what I want to say is thank you."

After saying that, he let go of his hand.

Qi Yao was stunned for a moment, snorted coldly, and ran away in a hurry.

At night, in a suspended room, a man sat in the corner, looking at Qi Yao who was keeping vigil on the fifth floor of the stairs, and said, "You shouldn't remind him that he is a little devil since he has practiced both magic and magic."

Qi Yao lowered her eyes and said softly: "He didn't want this either. He was a very good person when he was with me. I don't want to see him die inexplicably."

The man said solemnly: "If we eradicate the Puppet Palace, there won't be so many lives lost. Your mission is to sneak into the Puppet Palace quietly and provide information to our Jianmen, in order to find the opportunity to destroy this Puppet Palace in one fell swoop. !”

Qi Yao said: "I know that there are many senior brothers and sisters who are doing the same thing as me."

The man added: "And my mission is to give you the mysterious stone and protect you! I am terminally ill and will only live for two or three years. If I die here, I will be killed by your double cultivator, which can be regarded as a cover-up. , allowing you to become an official disciple of Shadow Puppet Peak smoothly."

"Senior brother."

"Don't be sad. With your earthly profound roots, you should have been cultivated by the masters at Jianmen, but you took the initiative to come here and take on the task of destroying the Puppet Palace. This is enough to be admired."

The man sighed quietly and said no more, and then another painful groan came from the darkness.

The man's chest was covered in blood and flesh, but several strange stones fell out of it.

As pure as jade, as cold as snow, exuding a faint and mysterious light.

This is a black stone.

"Brother Dazhu, Sister Erniu, what do you mean? We can't go back to the mountain after dark, so we will stay at the foot of the mountain temporarily. We agreed to go up the mountain together at dawn. What are you doing now?"

"Don't come here!"

"how so?"

At the foot of Shadow Puppet Peak, there is a hidden tent.

More than 20 handymen were looking around nervously. In addition to the dense dark forest, they were surrounded by sturdy men holding torches.

Those strong and strong men were setting up stalls and selling goods in the market during the day, but now these strong and strong men are crowding around Shengzhu and Wen Erniu.

The two of them looked joking at this time, completely different from the daytime.

Among the handymen, someone seemed to understand something and shouted: "Sheng Shengzhu, how dare you collude with the bandits? Have you forgotten what the official disciple said?"

Sheng Shengzhu said with a half-smile, "What are you talking about?"

The man said: "You dare to commit crimes at Shadow Puppet Peak, aren't you afraid of Shadow Puppet Peak's revenge?"

The atmosphere became quiet for a while, and Shengzhu, Wen Erniu and others looked strange, as if they had heard something ridiculous, and then burst into laughter, laughing so hard that they almost shed tears.

One of the Biao strong men said respectfully to Shengzhu: "Boss, these are idiots. They actually believed what the disciples of the Demon Sect said. They thought this was the territory of the righteous way. Their death was not unfair at all."

Sheng Shengzhu said: "Kill them quickly and give me all their contribution points. I and your second sister are talented and managed to sneak into the Demon Sect. From now on, we will definitely become the official disciples of the Demon Sect."

Another person among the strong men smiled flatteringly and said: "From now on, I will follow the boss and enjoy the good life!"

Shanda Zhu waved his hand.

The sturdy men rushed over with knives.

After a burst of screams and wails, the sound gradually died down.
