I'm an actor under the devil

Ouyang Fei and his party entered the mountain early the next morning.

On the map, the village was located in a canyon, but Ouyang Fei and his party went around the mountain three times, but still couldn't find the entrance.

As the sun rose, Situ Feng gradually became a little impatient: "Elder brother, do you think that the blood demon found us and used some kind of tricks to block the way into the mountain?"

Ouyang Fei couldn't answer his question, so he could only say: "Let's look for it again."

Just when several people were confused, a skinny old man came down the mountain with a bundle of firewood on his back.Gong Yuxi, an uncultivated mountain man, showed joy, clapped his hands and said, "It should be a local, I'll ask for directions."

After speaking, he bounced and ran over.

Ouyang Fei shook his head helplessly, motioning for others to follow.

Gong Yuxi ran up to the old man and stopped him: "Old man, do you know how to get to Sanshui Town?"

The old man nodded, looked Gong Yuxi up and down, and asked tentatively, "Are you an immortal from Chicheng who came to help eliminate demons?"

Gong Yuxi's eyes lit up: "Old man, do you know about the blood demon?"

The old man showed a look of fear, and lowered his voice: "Not only do I know, I have seen it."

Gong Yuxi hurriedly asked. "Where did you see it?"

"Not far from Sanshui Village, there is a cemetery. The blood demon often haunts the cemetery." The old man replied.

Ouyang Fei caught up and asked, "What does the blood demon look like?"

The old man seemed a little scared when he saw Ouyang Fei, and shrank his neck back: "I, I didn't see clearly, but I saw that the skin was black, the upper body was like a human, and the lower body was like a beast, with wings and long fangs. .”

"You saw him, he didn't hurt you?" Ouyang Fei asked again.

The old man shook his head: "That monster seems to be only interested in immortals. As long as we don't take the initiative to provoke him, he won't hurt us."

These descriptions are actually in line with the clues given by the City Lord's Mansion.Ouyang Fei took out two middle-grade spirit stones from his pocket, and handed them over: "Then please, take us to the cemetery."

Lingshi is a hard currency in Westland, even if you don't practice immortality, you can use it to exchange for food.Two spirit stones are nothing to cultivators, but to ordinary mountain dwellers, they can be exchanged for several months of rations.

The old man took the Lingshi happily, smiling like a chrysanthemum, and hurriedly nodded in response: "Okay, okay, please come with me."

After entering the canyon, a group of people followed the old man up the river, passing through the dense forest, and saw the smoke from the cooking houses, and the farms were connected.

A long stone road passes through the middle of the village, and at the end of the stone road is a hill.

The old man showed Ouyang Fei the way: "This is Sanshui Village, and the cemetery is on the back hill."

Ouyang Fei: "Thank you."

"Where are the monsters?" Situ Feng released his consciousness and swept across the small hill, but saw nothing.

The old man explained: "The monster only appears half of the night. Why don't you go to the village first and wait. I'll let my companions pay attention, and I'll notify you when I see the monster appear."

"That's fine." Qi Jing suggested to Ouyang Fei: "There are several Nascent Soul Stages in our team, and the blood demon might smell the breath and dare not come out, why don't we lie in ambush in the village for two days and wait for the rabbit? "

Ouyang Fei's face was solemn: "We can afford to wait, I'm afraid those disciples who were arrested can't afford to wait."

Gong Yuxi thought for a while, then turned around and called the old man: "By the way, old man, did you see someone enter the mountain last month?"

The old man thought for a moment: "You want to ask those immortals who came to exterminate demons last month? Although I haven't seen them, I heard from the villagers that the corpse that was carried down the mountain was discovered by people in our village. Yes, that person is my relative, who lives at the east end of the village."

Qi Jing: "In that case, we might as well go and ask."

Ouyang Fei nodded, and a group of people walked towards the village.

Suddenly, Nie Wushuang smelled a quiet fragrance, and his footsteps stopped suddenly.

"What's wrong?" Ouyang Fei noticed his abnormality, stopped and asked.

"Let's not disturb the village, it's the same if we call people out here to ask questions." Nie Wushuang held the sachet at his waist and said calmly.

Ouyang Fei felt that Nie Wushuang's tone was a bit strange, but he knew that Nie Wushuang was not a meddlesome person. Although he didn't understand his intentions, he stopped cooperatively: "In that case, please call me out, old man."

The old man was taken aback for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "Hey, I'll call him now."

As soon as the old man left, Nie Wushuang immediately said to Ouyang Fei, "Don't go in, this village is weird."

"What's so weird about this village?" Situ Feng looked around strangely: "This is just an ordinary mortal village."

Qi Jing also echoed: "Let me tell you, fellow Daoist Nie, are you too nervous? Relax, it's just a mysterious mission. The blood demon's strength is as high as the sky, and it won't reach Yuanying. With so many of us, we can handle it completely." come."

Nie Wushuang: "Master gave me a sachet that can warn of illusions. It is usually completely odorless, but it suddenly emitted a fragrance just now."

When Situ Feng heard the words, he immediately stretched his head and smelled it closely: "Well, it has a little fragrance."

He shook his head again, and said in a very envious tone: "Hey, your master is so kind to you. The sachet that can warn of illusions is actually given away as soon as you say it? Last time I broke a Tianmu flower that can recognize an illusion at home , my dad almost beat me to death."

Ouyang Fei looked at Nie Wushuang solemnly: "You mean, there are illusions in this village?"

Nie Wushuang nodded.

Situ Feng immediately yelled in surprise: "Why is there an illusion here? It couldn't be arranged by that blood demon, right? But a master of illusion at the Golden Core level should be able to see through it, right?"

Qi Jing: "That's not necessarily the case. Illusion is a mystery, and if you use some array props, it will be even more difficult to identify."

Gong Yuxi rubbed her chin: "No wonder I couldn't find the entrance to the village before."

"Brother, you are here!" A young man with a sword on his back came running from the village.

"Junior Brother Yuan." Ouyang Fei recognized the person, named Yuan Yu, who was a Jiange disciple who participated in the last mission, and asked with a happy expression, "Why are you here?"

"Come to perform the task of eliminating the monster." Yuan Yu said, "We have been waiting here since we found out that the monster is near the village."

"How's it going?"

Yuan Yu shook his head: "The blood demon is very cunning and difficult to deal with. The captain was killed by him in order to protect us. We dare not beat him, so we can only send a letter to the master for help."

"It's good to be alive." Ouyang Fei breathed a sigh of relief, and asked him again: "What's so weird about this village?"

"No...oh, yes." Yuan Yu seemed to remember something, and said, "Every time we can't beat him, we flee back to the village. There seems to be some barrier here, and the blood demon dare not come in."

Ouyang Fei fixed his eyes, looked at Nie Wushuang, and thought: Could it be that the illusion was not done by the blood demon, but restrained him instead?

Yuan Yu stepped forward to hold Ouyang Fei: "Our people are temporarily living in the old house over there. If they know that the senior brother is here, they must be very happy. Now we can complete the task and go back."

"En." Ouyang Fei thought for a moment, and followed Yuan Yu to the village.

Nie Wushuang frowned slightly, feeling a little strange, didn't the old man just say... what did he say?He thought about it carefully, but couldn't remember clearly.

The fragrance of the sachet became more and more intense.Nie Wushuang squeezed the sachet, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and followed.

Except for the one who died, all the sword cultivators who did the mission last time are here.It seems to be in good condition.Didn't suffer much.As soon as they saw the fellow disciples who came to support them, they all happily gathered around to say hello.

Ouyang Fei was thinking about the mission: "Tell me about your last mission. When will the blood demon appear, and what tricks will it use?"

Yuan Yu said: "The blood demon likes to appear near the cemetery in the back mountain at night. We saw him there last time. The moves are nothing special, but their cultivation level is higher. It is definitely not a problem to have a senior brother. It is better to be here Wait a minute, after sunset, are we going to the back mountain to look for him?"

"That's good." Ouyang Fei knew that his classmates were safe and sound, so he was not in such a hurry, so he agreed to come down and wait for the sunset with them in the house.

Gu Qingyuan waited for another three days. Ouyang Fei and his party never came out since they entered the village.But the blood demon never showed up.

Gu Qingyuan called the head of the Xusu branch, and asked gently: "Why did those sword cultivators enter the village for so long and didn't come out? Don't you plan to explain it to me?"

Xun Jie showed embarrassment: "This, my subordinates don't know..."

A sound of porcelain crumbling interrupted Xun Jie's words.

Gu Qingyuan was still lazily leaning on the rug, without changing his posture, as if he wasn't the one who destroyed the whole room of porcelain with spiritual power just now.

"Chairman, I'm not very patient. I don't want to ask the same thing twice."

Xun Jie was terrified by the killing intent in his words, and suddenly knelt on the ground with a "plop": "Don't force me, protector, it's not that I'm hiding it on purpose, it's really about the Lord's secret, and my subordinates can't disclose!"

"Oh, the lord's secret?" Gu Qingyuan repeated it slowly, trying to communicate with Yan Chen in reverse for the first time in his mind: "Can I ask, lord?"

Yan's deep and slow laughter sounded in his mind, which made Gu Qingyuan's ears tingle.

"Just ask."

So Gu Qingyuan got up, put his elbows on his knees, leaned forward, and raised his chin with great interest: "Let's listen."

"No, I can't say it." Xun Jie knelt on the ground, his head almost lying on the ground, trembling pitifully: "I really can't say it, the Lord will kill me if I say it."

Gu Qingyuan laughed when he heard the words, summoned the ghost-eyed Rakshasa knife, casually slapped it on Xun Jie's neck, tapped Xun Jie's Mingmen with the tip of the knife, and threatened: "Don't say anything, I'll kill you right now." about you."

Xun Jie cried and said with a sad face: "Then you must not tell the Lord that I said it."

Gu Qingyuan only replied with one word: "Say."

Xun Jie seemed to have made up his mind, gritted his teeth and said, "Let me tell you the truth. In fact, there is no blood demon at all. It is the lord, and the lord needs the blood of a monk, and he must be a strong monk, so I am in the village. I have done tricks here, bribed those mountain people, designed to catch some monks, and draw their blood."

He sighed, aggrieved and helpless: "In the past, there were few masters, so I just grabbed the low-level monks passing by, but I was able to handle it. Recently, the demand is so great that there is no way to make such a big commotion. There is really no other way.

"The lord needs monk's blood? Why haven't I heard of it?" Gu Qingyuan raised an eyebrow.

"This matter was carried out in secret. It seems to be related to the lord's secret injury. The lord needs human blood to take a bath every day, and he doesn't want to be known, so he only confessed it to his subordinates in secret. And now Kunjiao and Xianmen are working together. During the period of truce, the lord does not want to make too much noise and stir up trouble." Xun Jie seemed to have ignored it, but the more he talked, the smoother he became.

Gu Qingyuan lowered his eyebrows and pondered, what Xun Jie said now was in line with the original text.But logic does not stand up to scrutiny.

If Shen really had a secret mission, how could it be Xun Jie's turn to get involved? Is it because the right protector is not smart, or the left protector is unreliable?

However, Gu Qingyuan still pretended to believe the other party's words, and deliberately used that kind of reluctant tone of disgust and tried not to show it, and said to Yan Chen: "My lord, it turns out that those in your pond are all human blood."

Yan Chen originally had no intention of defending such a clumsy lie, but when he heard Gu Qingyuan's question, his heart was inexplicably blocked.

"No." He denied it bluntly, "I don't have such a disgusting habit."

The author has something to say: Gu Qingyuan: Tsk tsk tsk, it's really dirty and unhygienic. (pointing)

Yan Chen who was disliked by his wife (very loudly): I am not!I don't!
