After a stalemate for only a few seconds, "Yan Niang", who was standing still, suddenly opened her mouth and let out a sharp hiss. Her figure soared, and she threw herself on the strange man on the wall.

Seeing this, the strange man advanced instead of retreating. The lines on his mask were twisted and reorganized to form a ferocious smile.

He stretched out one hand, and that hand suddenly deformed like soft rotten soil, the fingertips were slightly blackened, exuding an ominous breath.

Seeing that "Yanniang"'s body was about to touch that hand, she suddenly saw that her body stretched in mid-air like a taut kite, and a black awn quickly detached from the skin that did not belong to her, Fly in the opposite direction.

It turned out that when she saw that the leading Taoist priests were all killed, she knew that the other party was not something she could deal with. From the beginning, she didn't want to face the enemy head-on, but she shot a feint and turned around to run away!

Seeing that she was about to escape, "Yanniang" was ecstatic: since that old man has been killed, he might as well run away while he is running around.From now on, she no longer has to do hard work for others, she can do whatever she wants, and kill whoever she wants.

Just when she was struggling to move forward, she suddenly felt a sharp pain coming from her back, and heard the last cry of "Yi Shi!" in her ear, before she had time to fear, all perceptions had already left her.

It turned out that the weird man's hands turned into black tentacles in the air, bypassing the human skin in front of him, and easily caught up with Yishi who was previously lodged in the painted skin demon's skin, and crushed her in midair.

After Yishi died, the other human skins that swelled into balloons also spread out on the ground as if they had been emptied of gas.

After witnessing the death of his companion, Ding Jiu seemed to have lost hope of struggling, stopped talking, closed his eyes and waited numbly for death.

Seeing this, Wang Sheng was a little anxious. He didn't know what he did in the Tan family. This Ding Jiu was the last remaining insider, but he didn't dare to interrupt that weird person rashly. , Jiang Xun beside him suddenly spoke, and he said directly to the strange man still standing on the wall: "Leave this man to me, I will be useful."

Hearing this, Wang Sheng couldn't help but stare nervously at the strange man on the wall, fearing that if he disagreed with him, he would start a fight.

Unexpectedly, although the other party looked very cruel, he unexpectedly did not refute. He stared fixedly at Jiang Xun, and Jiang Xun looked back calmly. The two of them did not know what kind of deal they had formed in secret. After a while, the strange man looked away. He really didn't kill Ding Jiu, but tied him up and threw him in a corner.

After Ding Jiu yelled that "Yi Ten", she didn't make a sound. She seemed to be stimulated, even if she was tied up, she didn't have any unnecessary reactions, and she sat alone by the wall in a daze.

The strange man killed two people in a row, and the criss-crossing lines on the mask slowly returned to their original shape. He lightly jumped off the wall and walked around the human skin all over the floor.

Ignoring Ding Jiu who looked like a rice dumpling beside him, the strange man picked up the Taoist priest who had fallen on the ground with one hand. The Taoist priest seemed to weigh at least two hundred catties, but in his hand it was so light that it seemed insignificant. The feathers were easily turned upside down, and the things on his body fell to the ground.

Seeing this, the strange voice came out of the strange mouth, it sounded like he was laughing, but it was ugly like two kitchen knives making noise after rubbing each other, or the kind that was rusted and unusable.

He regarded Jiang Xun and Wang Sheng as nothing the whole time, and while holding the Taoist priest in one hand, he made that weird creaking sound. When he was still passing the scholar, he lowered his body and looked at him for a while with great interest.

In fact, the scholar slowed down for a while, and his mind also recovered, and he realized that he was not dead, and the evil Taoist priest must have been interrupted by some accident.

All kinds of sounds kept ringing in his ears just now, but he honestly held his breath and didn't dare to open his eyes, for fear that if he saw something he couldn't see, he would be arrested, beaten and killed again.

Until just now, the surroundings finally became quiet, and the scholar couldn't hold back any longer. He finally mustered up the courage and opened his eyes tentatively. Who would have thought that the moment he opened his eyes, he happened to come into close proximity with that hideous mask. face to face.

Scholar:  …

Stranger: ... giggling

The scholar's half-scream was choked in his throat and he couldn't make it out, and he passed out as soon as he rolled his eyes.

Wang Sheng and Jiang Xun who witnessed everything: ...

It was so miserable that Wang Cheng could hardly bear to see the miserable figure of the scholar fainting again, but the culprit didn't realize that he had frightened someone, and when he saw someone fainted again, he stood there rather bored. Got up, took the body of the Taoist priest and ran away without a trace.

Only a piece of chicken feathers was left, oh no, only a piece of human skin, and an unlucky scholar who didn't know anything.

Wang Sheng and Jiang Xun were forced to stay to do voluntary labor and clean up.In fact, it was mainly Jiang Xun who did the work, and Wang Sheng was only responsible for sitting next to the unconscious scholar and taking care of himself.

Jiang Xun used magic to wrap the skins of those unlucky people back. Although it still looks a bit imperfect, it is better than the previous state of separation.By the way, he also burned the human skin left by the Painted Skin Demon, so ashes return to ashes, and dust returns to dust, so as to prevent doves from unknown where to occupy the magpie's nest.

Wang Sheng sat beside him with his chin propped up and watched Jiang Xun go about his business, wondering why he seemed to be paddling this time to gain experience.

He has nothing to do, but his mouth is not idle: "Who is that weird man in front of you? Did you know him before? Looking at him, I really didn't expect him to be so easy to talk and leave Ding Jiu to us so easily."

Jiang Xun's busy figure paused, hesitated for a while but didn't make a sound.

Wang Sheng is not stupid, he clearly saw that the other party didn't want to say more, so he wisely didn't ask further, but immediately changed the subject pretending to be interested: "I don't know who this scholar is, how could he be so blind?" Turn around here, this place is obviously so remote."

Jiang Xun was kind, and said, "He fainted from fright, there is no serious problem, he will wake up in a while."

While the two were talking, the scholar who fell on the ground grunted and woke up.

The scholar was lying on the ground. Although his eyes were open, he couldn't focus. He must have been irritated in front of him. He looked like he was wandering away.

After a while, he finally came back to his mind, remembering the shocking scene just now, and immediately jumped up screaming like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

Even Wang Cheng was amazed by the height of the jump. Fortunately, Jiang Xun cleaned up all the human skin on the ground before, otherwise he was really afraid that if the scholar stepped on something and didn't change it, he would faint again.

The scholar looked left and right for a while, and saw that the scary masked man just now had disappeared, and his nerves were so tense that he relaxed a little.

Speaking of which, he was really wronged. When he passed by this place before, he just heard some strange noises. He stopped for a moment out of curiosity, but before he could see anything, he was caught indiscriminately by the Taoist priest.

The scholar couldn't help lamenting in his heart, curiosity killed the cat, so he won't come to join in the fun next time.

After a while, he managed to calm down his emotions, and hurriedly cupped his hands towards Jiang Xun and Wang Sheng: "Ning Caichen, thank you two for saving your life just now."

Jiang Xun didn't react at all, just nodded, said nothing, then shut up.Wang Sheng next to him was shocked when he heard the name. Although he had already guessed that he had traveled to the story of Liaozhai, seeing the famous Ning Caichen with his own eyes still made him inexplicably excited for a while.

His popularity in later generations is probably even higher than that of the Painted Skin Demon. Even those who don't know anything about Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio may not have heard of Ning Caichen's name. They just don't know the Ning Caichen in front of him Has Chen met his Xiaoqian now?

Jiang Xun has always been reticent and unsociable with strangers. Normally, Wang Sheng should have expressed the lively atmosphere, but at this time he was also overwhelmed by the miracle of seeing the characters in the book, and his eyes were still fixed on Ning. Cai Chen, I don't know where the soul flew to.

Ning Caichen had no one to answer him, so he was somewhat embarrassed, but fortunately he had a peaceful personality, and asked again: "May I ask the name of my benefactor, although Xiao Ke is mediocre, I hope to repay this kindness."

Wang Sheng came back to his senses, and realized that it was somewhat impolite for him to stare at him without saying a word, so he hurriedly corrected: "My name is Wang Sheng, and his name is..." Wang Sheng looked at Jiang Xun, and Jiang Xun looked at him. He looked mysterious, and he seemed to have an enemy when he was injured before. He didn't know if the other party would mind, so he told Ning Caichen his name.

Jiang Xun seemed to have guessed what Wang Sheng was thinking, his eyebrows moved slightly, and he said, "Jiang Xun."

Ning Caichen's eyes turned slightly in front of the two of them, a bit puzzled about their relationship, but he was always a little uncomfortable looking at Jiang Xun, the other's eyes always reminded him of his previous school days, when he occasionally bumped into the Academy Mountain on both sides Chang, no, this Jiang Xun looks scarier than Shan Chang, and I don't know how Wang Sheng gets along with him under pressure.

He didn't break the casserole to ask the end, but interfaced: "So it's Wang Shanren, Jiang Shanren, the kindness of saving life is nothing to repay."

After thanking him again, Wang Cheng even said that nothing happened. After he finished speaking, Ning Caichen wanted to entertain the two of them with wine. It was fine to agree, but there was still a Ding Jiu tied up in the corner, so he had to politely decline his offer. .

Ning Caichen had seen Ding Jiu on the side before, but he was tactful and didn't ask any more questions. After learning that Wang Sheng and Wang Sheng were not free, he was inevitably a little disappointed.However, this time Ning Caichen happened to pass by here on his way to the exam, so he couldn't stay longer due to time constraints, so he had to say goodbye to the two of them regretfully.

Before he left, he also left his address in Yangzhou, and told Wang Sheng and the others that if they pass by there, they must come to him, and he must treat them well.

Wang Sheng complied dumbfounded, then looked at Ning Caichen reluctantly, and walked away with the cage on his back.

After he left, the two finally had time to deal with Ding Jiu's trouble.

Wang Sheng originally thought that even if he would rather die than obey, he should at least resist, but he didn't expect that Ding Jiu didn't know if he had already broken the jar or wanted to get a confession and leniency, Wang Sheng didn't even ask, He sold the Taoist priest like a bamboo tube pouring beans.
