Seeking immortality in a deceitful way starts by making oneself into a puppet

Cheng Zhi and Chi Xinzi, who was wearing green robes, stood in front of a short peak, staring at a cave below that was glowing with red light.

The cave is very hidden, surrounded by climbing vines and covered with weeds. In the cave deep into the ground, a faint red light shines brightly.

Chi Xinzi was dressed in a green robe, with his head covered in a hood, and a bird's beak mask on his face. His gray hair was blown by the strong wind like a flag, and his prosthetic black gold hands were in his sleeves. Exuding an aura of Yuan Chun Yue Zhi.

Unlike Chixinzi, there is a ghost-faced owl parked on Chengzhi's right arm. It is huge and exudes the oppressive feeling of a carnivorous raptor.

This is a rare spiritual bird. During these days, it has been specially used to deliver messages for Cheng Zhi and He Ping.

Cheng Zhi took off the copper tube tied to the claws of the Ghostly Faced Owl, and stuffed inside was a rolled-up note with a message on it.

After reading the message above, he couldn't help but frown.

"how?"

Chi Xinzi asked: "What did my junior brother ask you to do? You look so ugly..."

"Reporting back to senior, that person has allowed me to hide in Siding Mountain during this period of time. On the one hand, he wanted me to avoid being hunted; on the other hand, he also secretly instructed me to investigate the whereabouts of the mandrill..."

Chengzhi sighed deeply.

"The man sent a message and asked me to try to lure the mandrill out, and then caused the Thirteen Feiyun Riders and the mandrill to conflict with each other. It seems that from the beginning, I was the bait he deliberately threw in."

"My junior brother's city is very deep, but his calculation this time is quite good. Let Feiyun Thirteen Cavalry and a group of Taoist slave soldiers fight with this mandrill. It can indeed weaken the power of both parties. It is the so-called fight between a crane and a clam. , The fisherman will benefit, this method of leveraging strength is not a bad one."

The corners of Chi Xinzi's mask curled up.

"This opportunity is rare, so let me help him temporarily!"

The moment the words fell, the man in green robe jumped up, his sleeves rolled in the wind, like a huge demon bird falling down from the short peak, and pounced straight towards the cave that radiated red light.

"senior?!"

Cheng Zhi was also greatly surprised. He saw Chi Xinzi flying into the bottomless cave at lightning speed. A moment later, a loud roar shook everyone around him and he fell down. On the ground, blood rushed up all over his body, and his eardrums were about to be broken by the roar.

"boom!"

It was as if the earth was shaking and the mountains were shaking. The red light in the cave that went straight to the ground was bright. Then, a green shadow jumped out quickly, rolling grass and leaves along the way, reaching an incredible speed.

And in the next second, a dazzling red light burst out from the entrance of the crypt, the surrounding air flow was like being burned by fire, and there was another earth-shaking beast roar.

A damp, cool, musty evil wind blew out of the cave, and a black monster like a demon flew out, hung behind Chi Xinzi and chased after him.

"Mandrill...!?"

Cheng Zhi was startled again. He knew that the strange black shadow was the one-horned mandrill. After all, he had also seen this mandrill clash with the government officials who went up the mountain and eat living people alive.

(This... Senior Chixinzi wants to use himself as bait to lead this old mandrill who dominates the Four Summit Mountains into a trap?!)

…

In the darkness of night, members of the Changfeng Club held oil-soaked torches. The crackling torch flames swayed in the wind, illuminating the dark rocks and trees nearby. By the light of the fire, you could tell that this was an open space in the forest.

Looking carefully, in this open space in the forest, except for the gang members holding torches on the outside, most of the people present were kneeling on the ground.

"Master Ma, we have captured him."

Yan Laoer lowered his head and knelt on the ground holding the saber with one hand.

"This guy really knows how to hide, but someone in my gang is good at tracking methods such as wind sniffing and ground listening, and we finally found his whereabouts."

"well done."

The leader of Feiyun's Thirteen Riders, Zitang Face, who was riding the horse, nodded slightly to him with the sound of horse whine.

"By the way, where is your leader, the 'Smiling Leopard' Xiao Hao? Why isn't he here?"

"Boss Xiao and others are going to take care of the He family's child. They should be planning to clean up the traces now. It will take a while, but they probably won't be able to make it in time."

A drop of cold sweat fell from Yan Laoer's forehead. Xiao Hao, the "Smiling Leopard", had long been turned into a corpse puppet, but the corpse puppet could not speak, which was why He Ping wanted to keep him alive.

"The He family's child turns out to be him!"

Ma Mingsheng sneered: "You guys are very quick with your hands and feet. How much benefit has He Jin given you?"

Yan Laoer could only pretend to be stupid and laugh twice.

"Where is Chengzhi?"

Ma Mingsheng asked again.

"Bring the people up."

Yan Laoer called out and stretched out his hand. Immediately, there were five gangsters who looked like wolves and tigers, pushing a tied-up man.

Lao Jiu, one of the Thirteen Riders of Feiyun, held a painting with a portrait of Cheng Zhi's facial features. He compared it with the person being escorted up, and then said in a deep voice: "It is indeed Cheng Zhi. This kid actually made us Easy to find.”

"Wait a minute."

Ma Mingsheng seemed to have noticed something, and Zitang's face suddenly sank, and she stretched out her right hand to stop Lao Jiu from speaking.

"There's something wrong with this guy... Speaking of which, what's going on with his face?"

"Face?"

Lao Jiu was a little confused and his eyes looked puzzled.

The horse's movement was very fast, and he turned over and dismounted neatly.

His eyebrows twitched, and he suddenly took a step forward. His body was as fast as lightning, and he thrust the claws of his right hand forward to tear it apart. The skin on the cheek of "Cheng Zhi" fell off at his fingertips, and it was clearly a human skin mask.

The face of "Cheng Zhi" who was tied up with five flowers was pulled off, revealing a bloody and skinless face.

It turned out that the human face of this corpse puppet was deliberately stripped off and used to disguise itself as "Cheng Zhi".

"is fake!"

He shouted loudly, alerting the Thirteen Feiyun Riders behind him.

There was a clanging sound of gold and iron, and all the Changfeng Club members present stood up and raised their weapons.

At the same time, the shameless corpse puppet, with its two red and turbid eyes in the eyelidless eye sockets, stared at the sound of the horse. After being stripped of its face and leaving only bare muscles, it grinned, opened its mouth wide, and suddenly spit out a The bloody arrows are coming, fishy and smelly.

Ma Mingsheng was not slow in his movements. While dodging the blood arrows, he kicked away the corpse puppet disguised as "Cheng Zhi".

The corpse puppet's sternum collapsed and it flew several meters away. On the surrounding tree crowns, archers hiding in the trees pulled their strong bows, and arrows fell like rain.

"Changfeng will be deceitful!!!"

Seeing this scene, the horse screamed and roared, his eyes widened suddenly, and his light suddenly lit up. He aimed at Yan Lao'er, and when his body was whirling like lightning, he killed Yan Lao'er.

boom!

Zi Tangfian waved his right palm, and Yan Laoer felt the wind howling above his head, and a huge palm force hit his head and covered his head: "Yan Laoer, if you Chang Feng dares to cause trouble, you are seeking death."

Yan Laoer has been around the world for a long time. When he saw Ma Mingsheng's lightning-like attacks and his domineering attitude, he knew that he was no match for the opponent. He immediately screamed strangely and threw several bamboo tubes at his feet.

As soon as the bamboo tube hit the ground, it exploded like a firecracker, and a large amount of thick smoke emitting a pungent smell like sulfur burst out.

The horse was still waiting to be chased, but for a moment he inhaled the smoke and couldn't help but cough, and he became alert.

"Be careful that smoke is poisonous."

He took a step back, took out a bottle of pills that could cure the poison, poured out a handful and drank it himself, while not forgetting to remind his other companions.

"Don't mess up your position, prepare to break out!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a terrifying roar of a beast suddenly erupted as if it was very close at hand. The smoke screen trembled with the violent sound, and even the ground beneath his feet was shaking violently.

"Mandrill?!"

Ma Mingsheng was stunned, and his whole body seemed to be frozen. In an instant, he woke up.

(Damn... I fell into a trap!)
