After the immortal disappeared

Chapter 1669 A tough opponent

This feeling made him very uncomfortable.

The stench at the bottom of the pit became stronger, which could make ordinary people faint directly, but Bai Ziqi seemed not to notice it and walked forward quickly.

As his subordinates observed, the tunnel connected to the stone chamber looked very new, and there was still sand and soil when touched, which looked like it had been expanded recently.

On the day of the Yaoguo Palace Rebellion, did He Xiao and others escape through this tunnel and leave Yongquan Villa under Zhao Song's nose?

Then, he saw a big fish head.

It was really big, with a wide and flat mouth.

Bai Ziqi took out a small bottle from his arms and dripped two drops of the liquid inside on the fish corpse.

The colorless liquid suddenly turned dark blue.

"It is undoubtedly a demon puppet." The bottle contained a special potion from the Heavenly Palace, which would change color when it came into contact with divine blood. Using this method to identify the demon puppet is more reliable than eyesight.

There seemed to be a hook stuck in the fish's mouth. He pulled it out and saw that it was actually a half-short pestle.

He had previously talked with Qingyang and learned that Qingyang was more inclined to believe that this giant fish was Cao Wendao's demon puppet.

Why did He Xiao bring in the corpse of the enemy's demon puppet?

It is difficult to hide such a large body in and out of Yongquan Villa from others, but Zhao Song's men did not know. Either He Xiao used some storage magic tool to quietly bring the goods, or he took advantage of the lack of people here on the night of the palace coup and directly brought the fish corpse in.

If it is the latter, things will be interesting.

Bai Ziqi examined the fish corpse and soon found familiar tooth marks:

Wide, flat, and straight.

This kind of tooth mark was also found on the fish bones by Taoxi before.

Something feeds on this giant fish.

Bai Ziqi then thought about it and found that there were countless scratches on the ground near the Xinglintai earth cellar just now.

That was not made by human hands or weapons.

There were also missing palace guards, and the feeling of being followed...

Bai Ziqi murmured, "Sure enough, the illusion array was left for that thing!"

With so many doubts linked together, it was strange that he couldn't figure it out!

The illusion array at Xinglin Terrace was not prepared for him or the palace guards, but to mislead the fish-eating monster, so that it could only smell the smell but couldn't find the big fish, so there were scratches everywhere on the ground there, and the monster was so anxious that his face turned pale.

Now, the underground secret room of the stable was opened by Bai Ziqi, and he didn't need to return to Xinglin Terrace to know that the illusion array there must have disappeared.

The monster can find it by following the smell.

He was moved, and suddenly felt that there seemed to be one less person in the team.

It was only thirty or forty steps from Xinglin Terrace to the stable, but the Yaoguo palace guards who led them earlier didn't seem to follow them?

When following the visitors from the Heavenly Palace, he instinctively followed behind. Bai Ziqi and his followers would not even look at him.

When checking for clues in the stable, Bai Ziqi looked around and seemed not to have seen him.

But he really had no sense of existence, even Bai Ziqi didn't notice anything unusual.

Now thinking back, well, when did this man die?

"Go up first..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a loud bang above the pit, followed by a few shouts, a scream, and the clang of weapons being drawn.

The servant shouted angrily: "Enemy attack! That ghost thing is out!"

Bai Ziqi returned to the original path and rushed to the ground in two steps, but saw a layer of red light outside the stable, but it flashed at a high frequency and was very conspicuous in the dark.

That was a sign that the red trap formation was activated but not fully activated. This defensive formation requires the formation talisman to be embedded in the ground to take effect. Once a strong enemy attacks, in addition to the defense and escape technique prohibition provided by the formation itself, it can also summon three sturdy earth puppets and three clever wooden puppets to resist the enemy, called formation spirits, which can give the owner more time to react and defend against the enemy.

But now no puppets appeared. Something was desperately hitting the red light shield, each time more fierce and faster than the last. It took less than two or three hits before the red trap was broken. The servant was the first to bear the brunt and fought a few moves with it.

A servant was frightened and retreated, just behind the pillar of the stable. Bai Shiqi glanced at it and said sternly: "Come out, don't stand there..."

That was just the blind spot of their formation and rescue!

Before the voice fell, a shadow appeared behind the pillar.

It stuck to the back of the servant, silently and naturally as if it had been standing there from the beginning.

The servant just realized that something was wrong from the eyes of others, and ran forward without daring to look back.

However, it was too late.

As soon as he moved, the shadow behind him was faster than him.

When Bai Ziqi jumped out of the tunnel, he happened to see this shadow flashing five feet away, still holding the servant in his hand. The latter's protective magic weapon exploded, and four blood holes were stabbed in his chest, as if pierced by a pitchfork.

The shadow was so fast that it was difficult for ordinary people to catch it with their naked eyes, but Bai Ziqi could still see it clearly. It was taller than ordinary people, wearing a gray robe, covering its face, and its cold gray skin was covered with tiny cracks.

This was not a human, because it had a tail behind it.

The guards of the Heavenly Palace surrounded the entrance of the tunnel, as if they were facing a great enemy. The servant reported: "Master Dushi, as soon as you went down, it attacked us. Somehow, one of the talismans was not embedded properly, and the array spirit was not summoned, so it broke through the array and captured Yuan Dong!"

Bai Ziqi's expression changed.

The talismans were all good, and they were checked yesterday.

At this time, a white guard on the side of the stable shouted: "One of the talismans is missing! It was taken away!"

When the white guards were setting up the array earlier, this weirdo had already understood what they were going to do and secretly took away a sign.

Even if it was not a human, it was very cunning and could think.

If one or two of the talismans of the trap red array were missing, the defense could be activated, but the array spirit could not be summoned.

The defensive ability of the trap red array is average - the temporary array is mostly not as effective as the fixed array, so the array spirit was added as a supplementary means, but it didn't work.

This time he brought out good players to track down the Nine Nether Emperor. Everyone knew that they were being followed and spied on all the way, so they were already on high alert. In this situation, the opponent was able to sneak attack successfully!

And the shadow captured Yuan Dong.

Yuan Dong did not have the surname Bai, and was not a guard brought out by him, but came from Miaozhantian Temple today, and had not run-in with the Bai guards. He Xiao had left long ago, and Bai Ziqi didn't think there would be any danger in the trip to the suburbs, so he brought him with him.

This person is a special existence, with low cultivation but great role -

He is the skin of a god, so he needs to be properly protected.

Bai Ziqi was attacked on the way back to the city from Xiaotao Villa. Although he repelled the attack of Lingshan, he also paid a considerable price. The team's combat power was greatly reduced, so he asked Miaozhantian for reinforcements.

This is one of the aids Miao Zhantian gave to Bai Ziqi, and the others are still being prepared in the temple.

The strange man in front of him probably sensed that Yuan Dong was the weakest among the crowd, so he picked the weakest one first, but it ruined Bai Ziqi's plan.

Now Yuan Dong was caught in his hand, and his sharp claws pierced from the back, pierced through and then lifted up, blood dripped from the trembling body to the ground, dripping.

Even if he was snatched back, it would be difficult to save him.

Bai Ziqi looked at the strange man who suddenly appeared and tried to communicate: "Who are you? Can you understand human language?"

As a result, the feedback from the other party was that he lifted Yuan Dong and sniffed it, as if to confirm whether this thing could be eaten, and then swallowed it in one bite!

Others were horrified when they saw this scene, because this strange man's eating appearance was particularly strange. It actually split a vertical crack from the middle of his face, and then it got bigger and bigger until it covered the whole face.

It turned out that it had no eyes or nose, and its whole face was just a big mouth. The sharp and interlaced white teeth reminded Bai Ziqi of piranhas.

Now he knew where the strange tooth marks on the giant fish bones came from.

And it only took two breaths for this thing to open its mouth and eat an adult, swallowing it raw without chewing.

No wonder the palace guards of the second shift disappeared, and the palace guards who led them just now also disappeared inexplicably. This thing eats people without spitting out bones!

Bai Ziqi said to the servant: "Put your hand down, let me see."

The servant let go and pulled off his clothes. Everyone saw two bloody holes on his forearm, probably stabbed by the monster's claws. The skin near the wound was a strange gray, and it didn't look like flesh and blood.

Bai Ziqi still held the half-broken pestle and reached over to knock it twice.

Clang, it was the sound of metal hitting stone.

Divine magic! Bai Ziqi's face suddenly turned solemn, and without saying a word, he raised the pestle and knocked on the servant's shoulder!

Snap, the servant's left arm was broken at the shoulder!

Blood gushed out, and he screamed in pain and almost fainted.

But when everyone saw the blood on his shoulder, they were relieved.

Fortunately, the poison did not reach his shoulder.

"Bandage him to stop the bleeding." Bai Ziqi told his men facing the monster, and then looked at the ground. The broken arm of the servant boy fell to the ground and soon turned to ashes.

If he hadn't acted immediately, the petrification spell in the servant boy would have spread to his body, which would have been difficult to deal with.

He also noticed that although the monster opposite had no eyes, the monster's face turned as soon as he stretched out the pestle.

To verify, Bai Ziqi shook the broken pestle left and right a few times, and the monster's head shook slightly.

It paid close attention to the broken pestle.

Sure enough, nothing He Xiao left in the tunnel was useless!

"This is a demon puppet. There is no point in talking to it." Bai Ziqi gave an order, "The demon puppet master who controls it may be nearby. Seventeen, take Ten and Eleven to search, within the range of Yongquan Villa!"

The only thing that can eat a demon puppet as food is a demon puppet. He Xiao stole its food and hid it in the formation, using its food-protecting characteristics to set a trap for Bai Ziqi.

Thinking of this, Bai Ziqi frowned again.

Demon puppets usually follow the orders of their masters. This thing is controlled by a demon puppet master. What's the point of He Xiao stealing its food? Does the demon puppet master need that fish corpse?

Something is wrong, unless...

Bai Shiqi responded and turned to leave with the other two servants.

Bai Ziqi suddenly spoke again: "Come back! Forget it."

He rarely goes back on his words, and everyone feels that something is fishy.

Seeing this, the demon puppet was also ready to attack from the gap. Bai Ziqi took out a pale white gold candle and blew a breath. The lamp spirit fell from the tip of the candle and turned into a snow leopard.

Judging from the shape of the demon puppet, it should be known for its agility. Bai Ziqi used the lamp spirit to transform into a leopard to test its foundation.

At this moment, the servant who retreated to the back suddenly said: "Master, get on the ground!"
