Sword Three: Rain Painting Scroll

Wind and Rain Town is in the southwest of Luoyang, near the Cicada Forest.There is a Nantian Bieyuan near Fengyu Town, and there is a special bully named Song in it. He has been domineering and bullying the people of Fengyu Town for many years.Every day, the servants of the Song family and the dandies of the Song family would take their vicious dogs to wander around Fengyu Town. I don’t know how many ordinary people have been harmed, especially those with daughters.

It only took Mo Yu and Mo Xi to arrive in Fengyu Town for a while, and they found an inn to stay in the town as soon as they arrived.The inn in Fengyu Town is very ordinary, and there are not many guests staying there. After paying the money to the shopkeeper, Mo Yu, Mo Xi and Xin Jing followed the waiter upstairs and lived in Tianzi No. [-] and Tianzi No. [-] rooms.

As soon as Xinjing arrived in Fengyu Town, she summoned a few little butterflies to ask about what happened after Huizun and Jin Yun arrived in Fengyu Town yesterday.These little butterflies have lived in Fengyu Town for generations. They all know how many people have come to the town and how many people have changed.The little butterflies told Xin Jing everything that happened between Hui Zun and Jin Yun when they came to Fengyu Town, including how many times they got off the horse and went to the toilet.

When she heard that Huizun and Jinyun were begging for water from a family surnamed Xu, Xinjing asked the little butterflies a few more questions in detail.The little butterflies are all ordinary little butterflies, without aura at all, even if they lie on other people's windows to eavesdrop and peep, they won't attract anyone's attention.

Therefore, they are the ones who know the most secrets of others.

The east is long and the west is short, and whoever has a secret, they all know it.

Regarding this Xu family, there is nothing wrong with it at first glance. It is an ordinary family. Two old people have a pair of children under their knees. The daughter died young, and the son went to the battlefield. two letters.Therefore, the old couple have lived with each other all these years.Their family is very poor, so poor that the family can only use one idiom to express it, that is, the family is destitute.

The old couple usually don't go out very much, and they don't have any contact with the surrounding neighbors, so they are gloomy.A little butterfly said that it once landed on the window of that house and looked in, and that one time, it was so scared that its whole life as a butterfly was bad.The old couple drew another magic circle, and a soul was trapped in the magic circle. This person's soul was torn into several pieces by the magic circle, screaming terribly, of course, it couldn't hear it, it was just dark It's chilling.

After conveying Little Butterfly's dictation to Mo Xi, Xin Jing frowned and said solemnly: "It seems that it is necessary to investigate."

Mo Xi said, "I'll go tonight. You two stay in the inn." 』

Hearing it calmly, he said anxiously: "How can I let my lord go there in person?"

"I have something to ask them. 』The Soul Refining Formation is not a formation that ordinary people know, it is impossible to learn it without someone teaching it, and...the Soul Refining Formation was created because Danxiu used monks, demons, and spirits to refine alchemy.But why did the old couple use the soul refining circle?Moreover, this magic circle is very complicated, and if there is a slight mistake, it will be counterattacked.

Mo Yu said, "I'll go with you." After speaking, he picked up the pomegranate and said, "You gave me the pomegranate, I have pomegranates here, and I'm not an ordinary person anymore."

Mo Xi looked at Mo Yu, thought for a while and said, "Okay, then you should practice quietly first, and act together at night." 』

Mo Yu nodded, put down the pomegranate, walked to the bed, sat cross-legged on the bed and began to meditate.It's been a while since Mo Yu came back. Whenever he has free time during this time, both he and Yan Xiaoliu will meditate to consolidate their cultivation.Today, the cultivation base is much more stable than before.

Pomegranate is very obedient, lying on one side peacefully, flicking its tail.

Night came soon, and when Mo Yu opened his eyes, he had returned to the Tianzi No. [-] room next door, while Mo Xi was standing by the window, looking at the family surnamed Xu diagonally opposite.The lights in that house were still on, but the windows and doors were closed, and they didn't know what they were doing.

"Ah Xi." Mo Yu got up together, and the pomegranate that had been hiding in the corner rushed out.It has only been with Mo Xi for the past 30 years. Before that, it had always stayed with its parents. Because it had never seen the world, it was sent to Mo Xi by its parents to practice.In the past 30 years, it has been sleeping and has nothing to do. This time, it was summoned by Mo Xi to do a job, and it was also assigned the task of protecting others. Don't mention how happy it is.

Moreover, it likes the new owner very much, he looks so handsome, Duliu~~

Shi Liu happily came to Mo Yu's side, circled around Mo Yu, then lifted Mo Yu's trousers with his foreleg, and motioned for him to hug him.Unexpectedly, Pomegranate was such a clingy little guy, Mo Yu was a little helpless, but hugged him very face-saving.

"how?"

"It's a bit suspicious. 』It’s not right to sleep at this point, considering their age as an old couple.

"Let's go." Put the pomegranate on his shoulder.

Mo Xi nodded, raised his hand to extinguish the candles in the room, pulled Mo Yu and disappeared into the room in an instant.

Sitting next door, without a single lamp on, Xin Jing, who was sitting on the edge of the bed with her chin resting on one hand, sighed and said to a little sparrow that had landed beside her bed: "Baicao, how much do you think the adults have invested in the little guy Mo?" Did Heavenly Spirit and Earth Treasure enshrine him to the Golden Core stage?"

The little sparrow Baicao scratched his itchy buttocks with its wings, and replied: "What do you do, as long as your lord likes it, is it useful for us to care so much? Besides, even if our lord wants to offer him to Feisheng, there is a way." Yes, just think of a way to block the catastrophe for him when he ascends at most."

Xin Jing: "..." That's true, but it's impossible to think about it, and their adults are not stupid.The path of self-cultivation is not something that everyone can take. After all, there are very few people in the human world who have a predestined relationship to immortality.Many people spend their entire lives just barely able to breathe in their qi, until they reach the stage of refining qi.

Baicao sighed: "Fenghuagu hasn't been so nervous for a long time."

Xin Jing said: "There is no way, who would let a fool come out and do stupid things."

Baicao sighed again: "Who do you think that idiot is?"

Xin Jing thought for a while, then shook her head and said: "Basically everyone I can think of in my mind has been thrown into the monster lock cave by adults, either they were beaten up by adults and entered Fenghua Valley as younger brothers, or they just hid to die. Refuse to come out of the mountain."

Baicao twitched the corner of her mouth and said, "There is another kind."

"What kind?"

"Killed by our adults."

Xin Jing said disdainfully: "Does this count? They're all dead, so it's still a ball."

Baicao: "..." You are right, I can't refute it.

The lights of Xu's house diagonally opposite the inn were extinguished in an instant, and the windows and doors were closed tightly, matching the pitch-black night sky, making it impossible to see what was going on inside.At this moment, two wisps of white light and two wisps of black smoke emerged from the crack of the door, and rushed towards the nearby forest of cicadas.

After running for an unknown amount of time, the two wisps of black smoke stopped, a dull hand was pressed against the tree trunk, and its owner bent over panting for breath.The old woman on the side looked at the young girl who appeared in front of her in fear.

Mo Xi's palm flashed with white light, like lightning. She looked coldly at the old woman and the panting old man next to the old woman, and said, "How bold you are, how dare you take someone's soul to refine it?" soul. 』

The moment Mo Xi appeared, the old couple knew that it was impossible for them to escape. The enemy was too strong, even with that magic circle, they couldn't defeat the girl. "Immortal, spare my life, immortal, spare my life." The old woman plopped down on the ground in despair, kowtowed, and said, "The common woman just wanted to refine a resurrection pill to save my poor daughter. I beg the immortal to forgive me."

The old woman was born with a kind face and kind eyes, and she looked even more sincere when she begged for mercy, but Mo Xi was no one else, she was cold-hearted, and she didn't have any sympathy for the old woman who took people's lives. Is it really pitiful?

"Resurrection Pill?Set up a soul-refining magic circle just for a soul-reviving pill, and take people's lives?You have been practicing this magic circle for five or six years, have you killed fewer people in these five or six years? 』If it is for a soul-reviving pill, there is no need to use this soul refining circle for five or six years. "Heh, I think you are doing it for the life extension pill." 』

It takes ten people's souls to refine a Life-Extending Pill. Such a Life-Extending Pill can last for ten years. If you want to prolong your life, you must always need the Life-Extending Pill.

The old woman prostrated herself on the ground, shivering, her head kept hitting the ground with a 'bang bang bang', and her skin was broken. "Immortal, forgive me! Immortal, please forgive me! We, our old couple, have nothing left. We just want to live longer and wait for our son to come back!!"

"Who taught you this magic circle?" 』

The old woman replied: "Yes, it was a crazy Taoist priest who taught me. At that time, my daughter was seriously ill and died not long after. When my wife and I were devastated, a Taoist priest appeared in front of us and taught It taught us how to take away the souls of other people. I, we have never used it on people in the town. The souls we took away were just passers-by and rogue gamblers... "

"Taoist priest?What kind of Taoist? 』

According to Mo Xi's memory, ordinary people may not be able to exert such power with this formation, but there must be something else behind this old couple's ability to use the soul-refining formation so easily.This woman didn't tell her the truth, she could tell it at a glance, her eyes were flickering, no matter how sincere her face was, it was false.

Heh, people, no matter young or old, cannot escape the word greedy.

Living to this age, I am even more greedy for life. Who wouldn't want to be able to live longer?Historically, there are many people who want to live forever, and this old couple may have lost their original nature long ago.

The old woman shook her head and said: "The woman doesn't know, the woman really doesn't know, the Taoist priest is crazy, he looks like a madman, and the woman didn't see his appearance clearly at the time, after taking the note, she just hugged him Use this formation with the mentality of trying, who knows..." The old woman dared not look at Mo Xi, but her reply became softer and softer, until it was as thin as a mosquito and could hardly be heard.

Seeing that his wife was so humble, the old man had long been dissatisfied. He picked up the old woman, stared at Mo Xi viciously with red eyes, and said, "Please forgive me, she obviously doesn't intend to let us go, let's go with her." She fought hard, look at how powerful she is, if you take her soul out and make alchemy, you will be able to make a long-lived alchemy that will keep us both alive!!" As he said, he rushed towards Mo Xi.

Before meeting Mo Xi, Mo Yu dropped a pomegranate from the sky.The pomegranate turned into a tengu, and slapped the old man to the ground with one paw.The tengu's paw was not the paw of an ordinary animal. It directly slapped the old man's mouth with blood. Seeing this, the old woman roared and rushed over.

Unfortunately, with their skills alone, it was difficult to deal with Mo Yu, let alone Mo Xi.

In just an instant, the old couple surnamed Xu died under the claws of pomegranate.I thought people were dead, so I grabbed their souls and asked them again, but unfortunately these two people have already entered the way of magic, and the claw of pomegranate directly slapped them out of their wits, leaving nothing behind.

Seeing the souls dissipated in the world, Mo Yu said angrily, "I knew I would have survived."

『No, they are just two scapegoats who used this formation out of greed. 』

The real behind-the-scenes... probably didn't even leave a trace.
