Chapter 169 Do you know how to paint?

In the formation, Li Chuyi sneered when he heard the threats from the two men.

When the pursuers arrived just now, Li Chuyi was still worried about whether the phantom formation could cover them. He and Zi Yuan clenched their weapons and stared outside, not daring to take a breath. Later, I found out that they couldn't discover me at all, and I was relieved.

Li Chuyi watched with great interest as the two monks angrily turned the hill over several times and thought to himself how big a piece of land would be cultivated if these people were gathered together to plow the fields.

"When I become powerful in the future, young master, I will definitely occupy a large area of ​​land and let these monks who have offended me grow food, vegetables, chickens and pigs for me every day. Then I will take the Taoist priests to move a deck chair every day to bask in the sun and watch them work. !”

Thinking happily in his heart, Li Chuyi laughed and looked so wretched that Zi Yuan next to him frowned, wondering what kind of illness this little fat man had.

Until the words of Nan Li and Xu Qianguan came, Li Chuyi was filled with sneers.

He is not afraid of the threats from the two of them at all. Not to mention that they can't find him, if there is a chance, he will personally come to repay today's "favour" and let these two families know what the little fat man's anger is.

Li Chuyi, who has been influenced by Taoist priests since childhood and must repay his flaws, completely made the two families hate each other.

Seeing the two monks walking away, Li Chuyi smacked his lips and waved to Zi Yuan.

"Let's continue!"

The two continued to move forward.

Under the eyes of Yin and Yang Dao, the two people who were on guard encountered various protective barriers, but they overcame them one by one.

I wonder if the people who set up the formation have good intentions. Although this phantom formation is heavily protected, it is mainly used for entangling. All kinds of prohibitions are intended to entangle and drag the offenders out of the formation. There are very few killing formations. The most powerful killing formation among them is just that the grass under the feet turns into sharp blades. The monks who are caught off guard by the phantom formation are nailed to the spot and unable to move until the blood all over their bodies is drained. Death.

The biggest obstacle to the illusion array is the ubiquitous illusion, but it is useless under Li Chuyi's Yin and Yang Dao eyes. The purple death energy of Ziyuan can extinguish life, and the protective restrictions mainly composed of vegetation have been broken one by one, posing no great threat to them at all.

They were like the cold wind in late autumn, turning everything they passed into yellow and yellow. All the vegetation along the way withered and turned into flying debris, devoid of any life.

A passage was opened in a suddenly rising forest, and Li Chuyi and Zi Yuan rushed out, their eyes suddenly lit up.

On the grass in front of them, a gravel path was paved on it. Looking along the road, it led to a cave not far away.

The entrance to the cave was obviously man-made, and the two half-moon-shaped wooden doors were ajar. From the Yin Yang Dao's perspective, there was no sign of any fluctuations in spells. They were just two ordinary wooden doors.

"Cave!"

Li Chuyi's face was full of surprise, and he took Zi Yuan's hand and shook it.

"Cave Mansion, Zi Yuan! No wonder there is such a big formation at the entrance. It turns out to be to cover up the cave home in the center! This is the real cave home. It is covered by a large formation and is hidden so secretly. Those from Taixu Palace are given to the disciples. The disciple’s cave is so weak! Look at this scene, tsk!”

Looking at Li Chuyi who was full of admiration, Ziyuan didn't look happy at all. Instead, she looked at the cave in front of her with vigilance.

"Stop yelling. How do you know there is no one in this cave?"

"Well..."

Li Chuyi was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered the important point. All caves have owners. They broke in so rashly. I wonder if the owner of the cave will be angry. Looking at the huge formation at the door, Li Chuyi didn't believe that the owner of this cave was a good person, especially after he had just escaped the pursuit of two families and ended up dying here for no apparent reason.

After thinking about it, Li Chuyi shouted loudly: "Junior Li Chuyi, this time he was chased all the way for the first time, and he rashly broke into your house to escape. I hope seniors don't blame me!"

The voice echoed around and spread far into the cave. After waiting for a long time, no one answered.

Frowning, Li Chuyi repeated it louder, but after waiting for a long time, no one answered.

"There must be no one there, or they are out, otherwise they would not see us forcefully breaking into the formation without stopping, and there would be no reaction to my shouting." Li Chuyi guessed.

Zi Yuan nodded, her expression slightly relaxed but still secretly on guard.

"What should we do, shall we go out?"

After thinking about it, Li Chuyi said in a deep voice: "Let's go to the door first and take a look."

When he came to the door and looked at the thick dust on the wooden door, Li Chuyi looked happy.

"With such thick gray, no one must have been here for a long time!"

Zi Yuan also breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

Thinking of this deserted cave, Li Chuyi's mouth watered.

Every child has a dream of treasure hunting, let alone monks. In order to find opportunities and cultivation resources, monks spare no effort to explore various strange and dangerous places, as well as the secret caves left by their predecessors.

It can be said that monks hunt for treasures in every possible way, and the most ruthless ones even dig the graves of ancestors. Encountering such an empty cave is simply a great opportunity, just like a delicious piece of pastry, making people salivate at the sight of it.

When he was a child, Li Chuyi was always filled with envy every time he heard Taoist priests tell him stories about monks searching for treasures. Encountering such a deserted cave at this time, he finally had a chance to get what he wanted.

Especially when I saw the thick layer of dust on the door, it was obvious that no one had been there for a long time. Thinking that no one might have visited this cave after its owner, a faint green light appeared in Li Chu's eyes, and he was so excited that he could not even feel the weakness in his body.

In Zi Yuan's speechless eyes, Li Chuyi wiped his saliva nonchalantly and stretched out his hand to gently push the wooden door.

His force was very light, but the wooden door had been there for who knows how long. It seemed to be intact, but in fact it had already rotted. When he pushed it, it collapsed with a "pop" and scattered into wood slag on the ground.

Li Chuyi was startled, looking at Zi Yuan's "murderer" expression, and scratched his head in embarrassment.

"If you don't want me, it's because this door is broken!"

He defended himself, ignored Zi Yuan's strange eyes, and stepped into the dark hole.

In front of Yin Yang Dao, the dark cave could not be said to be like daylight in his eyes, but he could still see things clearly.

After walking not far, a piece of square stone protruded from the smooth wall, with several runes engraved on it.

After thinking about it, Li Chuyi stretched out his hand and pressed it. With a gentle push of magic power in his palm, the square stone suddenly lit up with a ball of white light. The white light extends along the wall to the entire cave, and the soft brilliance shines down, making the cave a bright place.

"Awesome! This is where a monk should live!"

Li Chuyi was so moved that tears filled his eyes. He finally saw the "real cave" mentioned in the book. He was so excited that he was trembling all over. Zi Yuan rubbed her forehead when he saw the hopeless look.

A pair of thieves scanned the cave carefully several times to confirm that there was nothing strange in the cave. Li Chuyi smiled proudly and strode inside.

The area of ​​​​the cave is huge, and the hall at the entrance alone is dozens of feet in size. Futons are scattered around, facing the middle wall of the door. An incense table is placed against the wall, with incense burners and candles placed on it. Several plates for placing tributes are arranged on the left and right. The tributes inside are placed in unknown places. After a long time, it has turned into black dregs.

On the wall next to the incense table, a portrait hangs in the middle. The person in the painting is a middle-aged man. He is dressed in a scribe's attire and only shows his silhouette, looking deeply at the cumulus clouds on the horizon. There is no blockbuster rendering, just a few simple strokes, which depict the man's charm very vividly. One can feel the man's state of mind at that time at a glance. It is a kind of loneliness, but also contains a hint of anxiety and helplessness. emotion.

I don't know who painted the portrait, but even a person like Li Chuyi who doesn't know how to paint knows that the person who painted it is anything but simple. Not only that, the materials used to make the portrait are not simple.

No one has been here for an unknown period of time, and even the incense table and the utensils on which tributes are placed have a sense of antiquity. They look gray and full of traces of time, but this portrait is as new as ever, with bright colors as if it had just been It seems that it has been completed not long ago, and the ink on the picture is even as bright as if it is not dry, and it seems as if it is about to drip.

Walking closer, Li Chuyi raised his head and looked at the portrait carefully. It took him a long time to come back to his senses, with a thoughtful look on his face.

"Zi Yuan, do you know how to draw?"

Zi Yuan was stunned and looked at him with some confusion, not understanding what he meant, but she saw that the seriousness on Li Chuyi's chubby face gradually turned into vulgarity, and he grinned widely.

"Zi Yuan, look at this painting and it's still so new after so long. It must be a treasure. Look at the skill of this painting. Although I can't understand it, it must be very powerful to be able to draw people as if they are real. A great painter! How much could such a painting be sold for?"

Saying this, he ignored the weird look on Zi Yuan's face. He then thought about it and spat lightly.

"Bah, bah, bah, what money? This is a monk's painting, and the painter may be a monk. This is to be exchanged for spiritual stones! How can such a treasure be exchanged for a hundred and eighty spiritual stones? Hahahahaha Ha ha!"

The more he thought about it, the hotter he became. Li Chuyi, who felt that he was about to get rich, couldn't help laughing wildly. The laughter echoed back and forth in the cave, and Zi Yuan on the side couldn't help but look away.

She didn't dare to look at him anymore, she was afraid that if she couldn't help but slap the fat man to death for falling into Qian's eyes.

I don't know if he was irritated by Li Chuyi's words. The ink marks on the portrait trembled slightly, making the middle-aged man they formed seem to live for a moment, especially those deep eyes, as if he had glanced lightly. Li Chuyi couldn't stop laughing.

Snapped!

A powerful force hit his face from nowhere, and the unsuspecting Li Chuyi flew away in response. Zi Yuan's heart trembled and she quickly dodged over and stood in front of Li Chuyi who fell to the ground, scanning her face with vigilance. around.

He hurriedly got up, and the area where he was hit was numb. After the numbness passed, waves of heartbreaking pain came, as if countless needles were constantly poking his face. Li Chuyi stretched out his hand to rub it, but as soon as he touched it lightly, his face felt so painful that it felt like it was about to fall off. He was so frightened that he quickly stopped his hand. He wanted to blow again, but the place where he was hit was on his face. Even if he tilted his mouth, he couldn't blow on his cheek.

He couldn't rub it or blow it. Li Chu suddenly froze on the spot, tears streaming down his face.
