Qin Jiangli opened the door for Ling Xiao.

As soon as the door was pushed open, the dust on the door frame fell down in a rustle.There is only a low table and a bed made of straw mats.Ling Xiao stood at the door, frowned and performed the dust-removing formula three times before reluctantly walking in.

With a cold face, Ling Xiao reluctantly sat down on the edge of the bed, looked up at the dusty room, and asked for a while, "How can people live in this?"

As soon as he looked up, a few squares of dark blue night were still exposed on the top of the thatched house, with a few shining stars leaking out.

Qin Jiangli walked in, picked up the oil lamp on the table that had run out of oil, and lit it up with a trick. He put it on a small wooden table on one side, and sat down on a low stool on the other side.

Hearing this, he smiled lightly.He looked up at Ling Xiao and said, "My benefactor... can only live in such a place."

Ling Xiao snorted and asked, "Then where is he now?"

Qin Jiangli drooped his eyes, suppressing all the emotions in his eyes: "He died the day before this apprentice entered the mountain gate."

Ling Xiao paused, lowered his eyes and looked at Qin Jiangli.Then he saw Qin Jiangli look up at him, and said calmly: "Today, that person said that I took my life... because he knew that the person he killed was kind to me."

Qin Jiangli didn't even know why he had to explain this sentence to Ling Xiao.It's possible... It's because this person believed in himself unconditionally today.

After he finished speaking, he took out the account book from his sleeve, and drew a picture on the title page according to the resident information registered on it.

Then, he heard Ling Xiao's voice above his head: "If that's the case, then this person deserves to die."

Qin Jiangli paused for a moment.

He heard this sentence from other people before, and nine out of ten he said it was himself.

Hearing this sentence, his heart collapsed, and then he asked in a low voice, seemingly casually: "Then, Master, what kind of person... deserves to die?"

"People who bully the weak and do things that they know they can't forgive." Ling Xiao wrote lightly. "Before he died, he had only flashed back for a moment. He couldn't see the world of his parents, but only saw you, and he instantly remembered the person he killed. He is like this, he knows that he is heinous, but he wants to do it again. In this case, Who is qualified to spare his life?"

"Then, is there no one who is born to die?" Qin Jiangli looked at him and asked.

Ling Xiao looked at him, and instantly saw that Qin Jiangli was talking about himself.

Ling Xiao's heart ached.Then, he looked at Qin Jiangli, and said firmly and seriously: "No. A person's sins are all committed by him on his own initiative. If there are, then the way of heaven is wrong."

Qin Jiangli looked at him.

The person in front of him was exactly the same as he remembered.But the master in his memory was just an evil ghost wearing a desolate and melancholy skin, and the person in front of him, although he had the same appearance as her, also had high temples, white skirts trailing the floor, and a gleam between his brows. Naturally sad, but Qin Jiangli knew clearly——

The person in front of him was completely different.

He chuckled softly: "Disciple... Thank you Master for your guidance."

Then, Ling Xiao looked down at the account book spread out in his hand, and asked, "What are you drawing?"

Qin Jiangli handed the roster to Ling Xiao, and said, "Return to Master, this is the order of households selected by the Taoist in the town by drawing lots, and the runes are pasted in this order."

Ling Xiao took the roster and roughly flipped through it.The households with runes on them are recorded in detail in this register, and the number and location of their homes can be confirmed completely.Draw them in this order, and you must be able to connect them into a line in this order.

Hearing this, Ling Xiao nodded and returned the account book.

"If you're lucky, I'm afraid I can draw the appearance of the magic circle set up by this Taoist priest." Qin Jiangli said. "However, it is not certain."

"...There is indeed such a possibility." Ling Xiao said. "However, before this Taoist priest came here, people started to die in the town. Then, what's the point of this Taoist priest setting up this magic circle?" Because according to the information given by the system, Lu Duanchou's magic circle is clearly in the fairyland. Come out of town.And his magic circle is only used to refine the stolen soul, and it doesn't need to include the entire Xianlai Town.

In Qin Jiangli's mind, there was only one guess.

He wanted to use the whole town as a container to refine some evil things for the person behind it.And he attracted the monk of Qing Xuanzong because of the need for this monk to join in this formation.

Therefore, the entire town is not only a formation, but also a decoy.

Qin Jiangli wanted to go to the eye of the formation alone to find a solution after drawing the formation.After all, if the other party wanted to open this magic circle and refine the monks they lured over, it must be done in the eyes of the circle.

It is really dangerous to let Ling Xiao go.

Qin Jiangli did not expect that he would feel uneasy about such a monk whose cultivation level was so different from his own.But he just didn't want Ling Xiao to put himself in danger like this, so he simply lied and said: "...I don't know the reason yet."

Therefore, Ling Xiao thought that General Qin could only go to the doctor in a hurry.In his heart, he let this kid figure it out on his own, and waited until Lu Duanchou himself came to Xianlai Town tomorrow, and he would meet him again and find a breakthrough from him.

So, Ling Xiao said: "Then you can go and crack it yourself. It's okay if you can't crack it. You will be in meditation for a while as a teacher, and I will lead you out tomorrow morning."

Qin Jiangli lowered his eyes in response, and continued to write and draw on the book.

Qin Jiangli did not draw the formation until the sound of the third watch was faintly heard outside the window.

According to the pattern he drew, the town has indeed been incorporated into a strange formation.According to the pattern of the formation, the energy of every node in the formation follows the trend of the formation and gathers all the way to its center.

...The center of the formation happened to be the Yamen of Xianlai Town.

Qin Jiangli raised his eyes to look at Ling Xiao. He was meditating with his eyes closed at this moment, presumably he was peeping into his breath, and he couldn't sensitively perceive the changes around him for a while.

Qin Jiangli stuffed the book into his sleeve, got up and walked out of the hut.

The hut was not included in the formation because there were no people living in it.Therefore, it is safe for Ling Xiao to be here alone at this time.

Qin Jiangli took the account book and went all the way to the Yamen of Xianlai Town.

Due to sudden changes in Xianlai Town, the streets were sparsely populated.At this time, it was late at night, and the street was silent, only Qin Jiangli was alone.

When he walked to the tens of feet in front of the yamen, he saw that the lights were still on inside.Qin Jiangli pinched a formula, concealed his aura, and walked straight to the Yamen of Xianlai Town.

The position of the eye of the formation has always been the place where energy gathers, and it is also the weakest place in the entire formation.The person who formed the formation was only building the foundation, if Qin Jiangli could find a way to break the formation's eye, presumably he alone could cause the entire formation to collapse.

As soon as Qin Jiangli walked outside the yamen, he vaguely heard a slight sound coming from inside.

As soon as he concentrated, he recognized that the voice came from the demon priest.

Qin Jiangli's method of concealing his breath was learned by chance after becoming a demon in his previous life.This method can completely hide the aura of the monk, making it difficult for other monks to perceive his trace.

So, Qin Jiangli approached the Yamen with confidence, and stood in the shadow by a window, just in time to see the back of the demon priest.

The yamen was empty at this time, only the Taoist priest was standing inside.He stood in the middle with his hands behind his back, just facing a corner of the shadow.

Qin Jiangli heard him say: "It's such a good time, why didn't you kill that person directly? The monk is already a Nascent Soul, and with her as a guide, the magic circle can be opened tonight, and the entire Xianlai Town is yours." It's something in the Gu."

Then, a voice as low as a ghost came from the shadow.

"That person, I want to keep."

There was a bit of a smile in this voice, and together with the original coldness in his voice, it appeared a bit strange and strange.

General Qin shuddered, clenched his five fingers faintly, and made a fist at his side.

This voice was Lu Duanchou.

It was the Demon Lord in the previous life who followed Ling Xiao on the front and back, and was devoted to her.

Over there, the Taoist sneered and said, "Why, that woman is peerless, have you taken a fancy to her?"

The smile in Lu Duanchou's voice dissipated immediately, and he warned: "Do what you are supposed to do. If you shouldn't ask, don't ask."

Then, he sighed softly as if talking to himself, and said, "This woman is interesting."

Qin Jiangli didn't know why, but gradually tightened his fists by his side, leaving traces of nails on his palms.

He heard the man commenting on Ling Xiao in such a tone, for some reason, he felt depressed and uncomfortable.A gust of evil fire broke out from this dull emotion, rushing around in his chest.

Hearing his tone, the Taoist priest's voice also cooled down.He said: "This is naturally what I should ask. I finally tricked a monk into my formation, but you refused to kill him. Why, do you want to..."

Then, Lu Duanchou interrupted him: "Liu Ren, you have thought clearly. Talking nonsense in front of me will never end well."

The Taoist was startled, and his voice stopped abruptly.Then, with a trembling voice, he said in a low voice: "You...you can't kill me. If this magic circle is not completed, and you kill me, you can't do what you want to do."

Then, Qin Jiangli saw that the shadow suddenly shrank in one place.The cloud and smoke dissipated, and a person walked out from there.

The man's black robe was rolled with dark red edges, his facial features were coquettish, his eyes were sunken, and he had an indistinguishable appearance.

He walked out of that corner, looking at the Taoist priest with a pair of deep dark red eyes: "Even so, you have to spare your life."

As he spoke, he turned around slowly, facing Qin Jiangli's direction.

"She's not the only one who cheated." Lu Duanchou laughed, his eyes suddenly darkened.

"No, the other one came to your door on its own initiative."

The author has something to say: Ling Xiao: Whoever uses the word "woman" to refer to me again, I will kill you all :D
