Chapter 223 The Evil Taoist
Looking at the golden light outside and hearing the miserable screams of those ghosts, Yin Xiu couldn't help but feel a little frightened even though she knew it was not directed at her.
"This bitch's Taoism is getting better and better."
Shaking her head, Yin Xiu looked at the dark man lying on the ground and asked, "Aren't you afraid?"
"I'm afraid." The man replied lazily.
"Then you don't run?"
"Too lazy to run."
He yawned, "Where to run and how far I can run, I don't even bother to think about it."
"So from the very beginning, when you came out of Li Gui's body, you stayed here and didn't run away?"
"When we faced those ghosts and wild ghosts, did we forget about you?"
"Didn't you think of taking the opportunity to attack us at that time?"
Yin Xiu asked several questions in succession, but the man just lay there without saying a word, without even raising his eyelids.
Now he couldn't help but feel a little angry, and his voice rose a little higher.
"Hey, I'm talking to you, why are you ignoring me?"
"I'm too lazy to care about you."
He yawned, adjusted his body to a sleeping position, and turned his back.
"Okay, it doesn't matter if you are too lazy to talk to me, as long as I am willing to talk to you."
Yin Xiu grinned, her fingers filled with purple energy.
"and many more."
The man turned his face again and glanced at Yin Xiu.
"What, are you afraid?"
Yin Xiu's speed of drawing the talisman on her hand still did not slow down.
"It's not about whether I'm afraid or not. I've already died once. What should I be afraid of? And I'm too lazy to be afraid of you. I just need to ask that guy's opinion on whether you can accept me."
He lazily raised his finger and pointed to the side with difficulty.
Yin Xiu looked in the direction of his finger and saw a scarecrow standing in the corner.
It is said to be a scarecrow because the arm protruding from the red robe is wrapped and tied with straw.
As for the rest of the body, the head is hidden behind a bamboo hat with black gauze, and the torso and other parts are shrouded in red robes, leaving no trace at all.
The guy was carrying a backpack on his back, like the kind carried by ancient scholars.
The whole body is in tatters and covered with all kinds of gossip and talismans, making it difficult for people to see the reality underneath.
When she saw the dark energy coming out of the opponent's body, mixed with some red light, Yin Xiu already knew that this guy was difficult to deal with.
"Is this guy here to save you?" Yin Xiu asked.
"What are you doing to save me? I won't die. Why do you think we Seven Evils merged into one? He made it an idol."
Lazy yawned and slowly floated into the air while lying on his side, no longer paying attention to Yin Xiu.
Yin Xiu is also far away from laziness. For some reason, as soon as she gets closer to this guy, Yin Xiu becomes a little tired for some reason.
Although at this moment, as long as the talisman paper is hit in Lazy, the collection of Qisha will be completed, but the monster in front of them does not seem to let them leave easily.
And with so many Zhuyou magic weapons on his body, the guy in front of him is definitely related to the Taoist sect and is not an ordinary monster.
Looking at this, is he a Taoist priest who has entered the evil path?
Regardless, this fight seems to be over.
Yin Xiu put up a posture, lowered her waist and raised her heels, waiting for the opponent to come up.
The other party suddenly sneered, and a series of afterimages appeared as he moved.
By the time Yin Xiu reacted, the arm joined with straw poles had already poked out of his sleeves, carrying the fishy wind and thunder, piercing his face.
Yin Xiu's eyes flashed with anger, and while she was diving down, she kicked out her legs, straight towards the opponent's lower body.
This move required enough strength and angle. If he was hit, no matter what kind of steel the opponent was, his skin would be torn and his muscles would be broken.
But the opponent seemed to have expected it. He stepped out with his other foot and withstood Yin Xiu's kick.
Both sides were evenly matched in terms of speed and strength, so they each exchanged one leg.
At the same time, from the long sleeve, a bluish-white palm with dry, shriveled hair and sharp nails poked out and reached for Yin Xiu's heart.
Before Yin Xiu moved her eyes to take a closer look, the clothes on her chest began to flutter due to the sudden energy.
"Good come!"
As the two hands collided, Yin Xiu took advantage of the force and bounced up from the ground. With one hand, he grabbed the opponent's door and made a sharp arrow with both fingers, aiming straight for the eye.
The Bagua Hand is vicious and strange, and it will rush towards the vital point as soon as it strikes. The monster didn't expect that he would be at a disadvantage when he made the first move, and would be taken advantage of by Yin Xiu. Therefore, he was inevitably taken aback, and his head and upper body were thrown back.
As the guy managed to avoid Yin Xiu's thrust, Yin Xiu swept the hat to the ground with a sweep of his hand.
As soon as the hat fell off, Yin Xiu and the monster couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
But obviously, Yin Xiu was shocked more and more intensely.
It turns out that guy is not a scarecrow or a paper puppet at all, but a real human being.
Or look like "human".
Because the guy's skin seemed to have been burned by flames, and it was extremely severely burned. From his face to his neck, the surface skin was simply charred, turning outwards and uneven like tree bark.
Naturally, there was not a trace of hair left, and the various scars on the top of his head were crisscrossed like ravines.
It seems that it was also because of the burns that his lips had disappeared, leaving a large gap, revealing only a few crooked teeth left inside.
Each tooth was oddly shaped and looked shaky.
This makes people wonder whether there is still a good piece of meat left in it, or whether a burnt head is simply placed on it.
The thing that makes people dare not look directly is his eyes. In other words, they are not eyes, just a piece of red cloth.
Like a patient with an eye injury, his glasses were tied with a piece of thick red silk with runes painted on them.
Yin Xiu took a look and knew that it was the charm used by "Guan Luoyin".
Seeing that his true face was seen, the man laughed coldly.
The sound seemed to come from the sewer mouth, cold, sharp, and eerie.
"You two..."
After a pause, he emphasized: "The girl outside uses Ma family exorcism. Although she is young, she is already very skilled at it. She must be a contemporary Ma family heavenly master."
"And you..."
He touched his chin, took off a few pieces of skin and threw it into his mouth. He sneered and said, "You are very good at beating, but there are many Taoist priests who can beat you, so I can't judge your origin."
Yin Xiu snorted coldly, "Before asking others where they are, it's basic courtesy to tell them your name first, right?"
The man sneered, and when he was about to speak, Yin Xiu raised his hand and interrupted him: "Wait, let me guess, maybe I can guess it."
"Huh? Is it possible that you know Ziwei Dou Shu or Tianshu Deduction?"
"No need for that."
Yin Xiu put her hand between her eyebrows, seeming to be deep in thought, and then said, "I guess your name is Huo Wang!"
"Huh? How can you tell?" Yin Xiu grinned, "I can tell from your skin color."
When the man heard this, his red robe suddenly puffed up, bringing with it a strong wind and adding a hint of ghostly aura.
"I don't remember whether the fire was big that day, but I know I'm very angry right now!"
"I can tell."
The smile on Yin Xiu's face became brighter and brighter, and she hooked her hand at him, "Come on!"
"Okay, before you lose your soul, I will make you understand who killed you. The poor man's name is Yun Zhongfeng!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yin Xiu immediately remembered the origin of the other party.
Yun Zhongfeng, a monk from Maoshan Tiandao Sect, is also the elder brother of Uncle Ming and Taoist Master Afa! Yin Xiu had occasionally heard some rumors about this person from their drunken chat before.
Whenever Yun Zhongfeng was mentioned, Ah Fa would always say "a genius from heaven" or "one among ten thousand", and couldn't help but praise this person's attainments in Taoist magic.
Even the previous leader said that he might be the reincarnation of the stars and have the power of a priest.
It's just that although this person's Taoism is profound and exquisite, unfortunately his mind is not right, he doesn't practice the right way, and he specializes in evil arts.
He was first expelled from the school by Nangong Baixing, and later I heard that he was punished by God for doing too many evil things and was accepted by Tianlei.
What I never expected was that he did not die, but appeared at Tilanqiao.
And according to Lazy's statement, the chaos here was obviously caused by Yun Zhongfeng's evil methods.
"Tell me, who are you? If you kill an unknown wild ghost, karma and grudges will be very troublesome." Yun Zhongfeng urged.
"The 40th generation successor of Maoshan Tiandao Sect, Yin Xiu!"
Yun Zhongfeng was stunned for a moment, and then the coldness in his tone became even worse.
"Hmph, Paigu Ming's apprentice. There is really no one left in the Mao family, so a Dansan like you is the heir apparent."
"Hey!"
Yin Xiu's face was so cold that water dripped from her face, "You can say anything to me, but don't say anything about the Mao family and Uncle Ming."
Yun Zhongfeng didn't pay attention to Yin Xiu at all. He folded his hands and said, "I just said, so what? The Mao family? It's no better than before..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yin Xiu rushed up, wrapped in wind and thunder, and kicked Yun Zhongfeng in the face with a sharp kick.
"Good come!"
Yun Zhongfeng advanced instead of retreating, and his body swayed on the spot. When he reappeared, he had sneaked behind Yin Xiu and slapped his Tianling Cap with one claw.
When Yin Xiu heard the strong wind behind her, her figure suddenly disappeared and merged into the shadow under her feet.
Yun Zhongfeng's blow missed, and he already knew in his heart that Yin Xiu must have used some means.
"Use the invisible magic to escape?"
As soon as this thought appeared in Yun Zhongfeng's mind, the next second Yin Xiu jumped out from behind him and emerged from the shadows.
Only this time, the offense and defense were reversed. Yin Xiu, like Yun Zhongfeng, slapped hard from behind.
Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, Yun Zhongfeng simply twisted his body and used his shoulder blades to forcefully receive the next move. His body immediately received huge force and rolled several meters away before stopping.
Although he was a soul, he somehow felt a burning pain in his back after being hit by this palm.
The look he looked at Yin Xiu showed not only ruthlessness but also a hint of fear.
Yin Xiu stood firm and said, neither salty nor coldly: "You can avoid this. I have to admire your ability to escape. No wonder God can't take you in even if it thunders."
[Shadow Walking Level 2]: You can move your body into the shadow, ignoring obstacles and terrain, and you are immune to physical attacks during movement.
Lv2 effect: You can attack immediately after emerging from the shadow, and the first attack comes with a mental attack.
Cooling time: 10 minutes.
This is a skill that Yin Xiu improved through his choices after killing Luo Lichen last time.
Although the cooldown time has been greatly increased, due to the addition of the feature of being able to attack immediately when appearing, this move has changed from a simple life-saving escape skill to a surprise move to surprise the enemy.
As for the special effects attached to the attack, they are not very important.
Yin Xiu believed that if it happened again, Yun Zhongfeng would be dead.
And most people will only see this move once in their lifetime.
When the two were confronting each other, Ma Xiaoyu finally solved the trouble outside and ran over quickly.
She was panting, and her hair was inadvertently wet with sweat. It was obvious that she had spent a lot of energy using exorcism.
As soon as she entered the alley, she stopped and looked at the evil Taoist priest, "Lazy, one of the Seven Evils, is so fierce?"
"Laziness is here!"
The ghost lay there without looking back, but stretched out his hand and shook it to indicate his presence.
"Everything is fine, they are all going to be broken up anyway!"
Yun Zhongfeng laughed loudly, and black energy suddenly emerged from his body.
At the same time, at his feet, a Bagua formation emitting evil light slowly unfolded.
When Ma Xiaoyu saw this, her brows furrowed and her feet couldn't help but speed up.
But after all, he was still a step too slow, and the Bagua array was formed, blocking Ma Xiaoyu from the outside.
"Hulao Bagua Formation, as long as the caster is not defeated, it is absolutely impossible for people in this formation to escape, and no one from the outside can get in."
Ma Xiaoyu said coldly: "Are you crazy? It's almost dawn, and you are also a spirit body. Aren't you afraid that it will disappear when the time comes?"
Yun Zhongfeng laughed foolishly, "How do you know I'm crazy?"
Yin Xiu didn't care very much. He grinned and said, "What a coincidence, isn't it? I happen to be gay too."
Saying that, Yin Xiu accelerated again, and quickly swept towards Yun Zhongfeng.
Yun Zhongfeng had suffered a big loss just now, and now he couldn't figure out Yin Xiu's reality. He took a few steps back and opened the distance.
Unexpectedly, Yin Xiu stopped, turned around and slapped the lazy man watching the show on the face.
"Damn it, you are worse and more fierce than our Seven Evils!"
Lazy never expected that Yin Xiu would suddenly attack him. His whole body trembled and he screamed and turned into a shadow and soared away.
The Seven Evils have returned! A few hundred meters away, a hole opened in the void.
The other end of the hole faces Lan Po's altar, which represents the real world.
"Let's go, time is running out."
Yin Xiu suddenly turned around and glanced at Ma Xiaoyu, "The Seven Evils have been dealt with. Now the way back to the earth is open. Don't waste time here."
Ma Xiaoyu did not move, but said anxiously: "But you can't leave now."
"What does it matter? Can a crazy evil Taoist priest really trap me? And you can't help here. The Ma family's exorcism can't break through this formation, can it?"
"But……"
"Nothing more..."
Yin Xiu suddenly grinned, "You go first, he will come as soon as I deal with it. It won't take long. After all, I have to go back to catch up on my sleep."
Ma Xiaoyu whispered: "Really?"
"Really, I lied to you as a puppy."
