Chapter 76 Two Old Foxes
Meng Qi raised his eyebrows slightly, and followed his gaze to look behind him. He saw a figure suddenly appeared on the side of the corridor, where the firelight was dim, wearing a silk scarf and a Confucian robe, with a pale face and long hair. The gray man is none other than Mr. Duan Xiangfei, Mr. Xianyin.
His appearance did not feel sudden, nor did it protrude out of thin air. Instead, it gave Meng Qi a feeling that he had not noticed at all before. It was also like the previously undetectable fog in front of him suddenly disappeared.
Bang, a transparent and crystal jade fell from the top of the corridor, separating Meng Qi and Duan Xiangfei.
"I always felt that someone was following me, but I had no clue. I never thought it was Mr. Xianyin. Are you okay?" Meng Qi said suddenly.
Duan Xiangfei put his hands behind his back and had a leisurely temperament. Even though he had fallen into the trap of the corridor, he did not show any panic. He smiled and said: "It is about the life of the dog. I am not worried, so I have to follow you, Mr. Shenhou, all the way. I didn't expect that you are actually Fake."
"False doesn't mean that things can't be done." Meng Qi also didn't panic and sighed: "So, Mr. Xianyin is the one who killed Han Envoy? I don't quite understand why you want to kill them to silence them?"
"It's very simple." An elegant voice came from the entrance of the corridor. Cui Xu, who was dressed in plain clothes and with a wooden hairpin in his head, was already standing there at some point. This was the reason why Duan Xiangfei did not retreat quickly and leave the corridor.
Cui Xu held the sword in his hand, with a stern expression and indifferent eyes:
"Because he is the current palace master of Snow God Palace."
Meng Qi stroked his palm and said: "No wonder, no wonder! Mr. Xianyin's magical 'Transformation Technique' can actually make a poor monk be covered with clothes without even noticing it."
"It's a small trick, but it's all in vain." Duan Xiangfei did not deny it. "The reason why I killed Han Shi and the others was because Old Ghost Cui was nearby. If he caught Han Shi and others, they would know what I told you. , will confirm my identity.”
Having said this, he turned to look at Cui Xu: "Old Ghost Cui, when did you start doubting me?"
Cui Xu was not in a hurry to take action, and said coldly: "When investigating Mingcheng's disappearance, all the clues pointed to Snow God Palace, but you were not too keen. After a hasty investigation, you left on the pretext of a bad relationship between father and son. Others may You can believe it, but you can't hide it from me. At that time, I thought, unless you can confirm that it was not the Snow God Palace, you will definitely not act like this. And why can you confirm it? "
"Thinking about how Mingcheng and Xueshen Palace secretly communicated about the music through the treasure map, and how he pretended to be a playboy to cover up his martial arts skills, I had a clear understanding in my heart, but I was not sure, so I borrowed The fake monkey will lead you into the game step by step."
Duan Xiangfei smiled bitterly and said: "Yes, only the actual owner of the Snow God Palace can confirm that it was not the Snow God Palace. I thought it was Mingcheng who couldn't bear the torture and told you this secret."
"Mingcheng is quite a man. If you were not the master of Snow God Palace, you would be a good match." Cui Xu gave a rare compliment.
"At that time, I had some suspicion that you had kidnapped Mingcheng, but I was afraid that my identity would be exposed, so I had to take the opportunity to escape far away and guide Shen Hou to investigate the matter. Alas, I didn't expect that you established the Twelve Phase God by yourself. I missed one move and lost unjustly." Duan Xiangfei sighed.
"You are also cunning. If Shen Hou had not been exposed too early and the threat was so great, you would have escaped unscathed." Cui Xu nodded lightly and praised Duan Xiangfei. He seemed to want his old friend to die clearly.
Duan Xiangfei chuckled and said, "Nothing compares to your foresight. Even I instigated Luo Qing to challenge you, but I couldn't seduce you."
"It turns out that Luo Qing was instigated by you. No wonder the timing was just right. If Master Zhending hadn't posed a certain threat to the Grand Master, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to escape so easily. Big brother alone wouldn't have been able to stop you from leaving." Cui Xu looked at Meng A strange look.
Duan Xiangfei made an expression of sudden realization: "I see, and the incident of Mao Tu kidnapping You Hongbo made me even less likely to guess that you are the Twelve Phase Gods. However, when I left, although Luo Qing lost the first move, it was not Was he hit hard?"
"Later I took action, so Luo Qing just sent a letter to postpone the duel for seven days." Cui Xuxiang was talking about a daily trivial matter.
Duan Xiangfei chuckled: "Luo Qing has just opened the secret treasure of essence. Who is your opponent? You have two secret treasures of vitality and energy. I'm afraid he has opened another one?"
"Well, the secret treasure of vitality, Brother Duan, you have always claimed to have opened the two secret treasures of vitality and energy. Now it seems that you are lying. Your 'Transformation Technique' should have been perfected." Cui Xu said softly. nod.
Duan Xiangfei smiled: "With the 'Transformation Technique', spiritual secrets are relatively simple. I opened two major secrets: spirit and energy."
"You are honest." Cui Xu said without changing his expression.
Duan Xiangfei smiled leisurely and said: "Anyway, it's either you who will die or I will die. What's the point of confessing."
"You have no chance of winning. This corridor is full of traps and can shoot countless powerful crossbows. Each of them is equivalent to my seven or eight successful swords. It turns out that the eldest brother deliberately caused the loss of the darts and planned to destroy the Pili Hall. Three hundred thunder seeds are buried here. Unfortunately, in order to deal with Luo Qing, I had to use this incident to lure out the unsuspecting Hongbo, so in order to prevent you from suspecting, I had to give up." Cui Xu said the trap lightly, "But there is. I’m here and the effect is the same.”
These two old foxes! Meng Qi curled his lips when he heard this, feeling that he had become a pawn for them to test each other!
"Hmph, whether you are wily or far-sighted, I only know one thing, we are not that easy to deal with!" He secretly clenched his fists.
Just when Duan Xiangfei was about to speak, Meng Qi suddenly spoke: "Mr. Xianyin, please confirm whether the person lying here is Duan Mingcheng."
Cui Xu, Duan Xiangfei, and You Tongguang all looked at him inexplicably, wondering why he cared about this.
"It's Quanzi." Duan Xiangfei was stunned and nodded slowly.
Meng Qi suddenly smiled, revealing a row of white teeth: "My mission is completed, Mr. Xianyin, where is the reward?"
At this time, the three inexplicable looks turned into idiot looks. At this time, are you still thinking about the mission or not? You should get out alive first and then talk about it!
The cold air in the ice cellar surged, and words condensed again:
"Found Duan Mingcheng."
"The main mission is completed, and one hundred and fifty good deeds will be rewarded."
"You are in the middle of a battle and cannot return. You can choose to return at any time within half an hour after leaving."
Meng Qi was slightly stunned, thinking that he could return directly, but this was expected, after all, he had considered similar situations before.
This is good, at least you can return immediately after the battle, and you don't have to worry about whether you are seriously injured or whether you are close to death!
Thinking of this, his whole body boiled with fighting spirit, and his hand holding the Jie Dao became harder and harder.
"Master Zhending, do you think I will prepare a reward?" Duan Xiangfei replied funny.
Meng Qi's white teeth were shining: "Actually, I don't even want the reward you promised before. I only want the 'Transformation Technique'. City Lord Cui trapped you here and said so much, I'm afraid he also wants this."
Cui Xu was slightly stunned, then calmly said: "Brother Duan, please repeat the 'Transformation Technique' and the secrets about the boundaries between humans and gods. Don't play tricks. You should be very clear. With my understanding of the secrets of the spirit, it is not difficult to judge." True or false, if you cooperate, you will live and die, otherwise we will die together."
"I don't understand why you insist on these?" Duan Xiangfei pondered for a moment.
Cui Xu looked past Duan Xiangfei and Meng Qi, looking at the coffin in the ice cellar, his expression softened: "The deeper my cultivation is, the more I believe in the existence of the boundary between humans and gods, and the key lies in the hidden secrets. If I can obtain By deepening the cultivation of the ancestral aperture between the eyebrows, you will be able to break through the boundaries between humans and gods in one fell swoop, and soar through the air. When the time comes, you will be able to summon the wind and rain, and bring the dead back to life."
"Oh, you are very affectionate." Duan Xiangfei sighed.
Cui Xu withdrew his gaze: "You don't have to tell me. Anyway, I have the treasure map in my hand, and I can get it when the time comes."
"It turns out that Jinhua's nephew hasn't gone to the treasure hiding place yet, and I was thinking of sending my men to capture him as a hostage." Duan Xiangfei shook his head, "You are really cautious in your actions."
"He just hid to give you hope so that you can come in boldly." Cui Xu showed a rare smile.
Duan Xiangfei looked back at Duan Mingcheng and smiled to himself: "Well, when people get old, they can't bear to let go of their children and grandchildren. Well, listen carefully, 'Let the curtain reveal the heart, and the mind will guard the ancestral aperture'..."
Not only Cui Xu listened attentively, but Meng Qi and You Tongguang also performed the same.
The Transformation Technique is a technique that specializes in cultivating the ancestral aperture between the eyebrows. The five chapters in the book are only over a thousand words long. As Duan Xiangfei slowly talks about it, it gradually comes to an end.
"'There is something round and comes out of chaos'..."
Before he finished speaking, Duan Xiangfei suddenly jumped forward, like a wisp of blue smoke, heading straight towards Cui Xu, his palms turning green and his figure ethereal.
Although his swordsmanship is strong, the magic of transformation is the foundation!
So having the five fingers on his right hand cut off did not impair his strength!
It was the last core chapter of the Transformation Technique. Meng Qi, You Tongguang, and Cui Xu all listened attentively and were a little stunned for a moment.
But Cui Xu, a person with a condensed ancestral aperture and a strong spirit, quickly came to his senses and stepped hard on his feet.
Suddenly holes were revealed on the left and right sides of the corridor, powerful crossbows shot out, the wind roared, and arrows rained like waterfalls, making it inevitable for people to avoid it. They could block one side, but they couldn't block them all.
Duan Xiangfei's figure was like a shadow, strangely twisted. He swung around in the rain of crossbow arrows and escaped a lot. Unfortunately, there were too many crossbows and they were too dense. He was still penetrated continuously and blood flowed out.
Although Meng Qi was separated from Duan Xiangfei, Cui Xu was stepping on all the activated mechanisms, so the powerful crossbows were also attacking from both sides.
At this time, Meng Qi did not rely on his magic power to perform various changes, but instead curled up into a ball and covered the door with his hands covering the back of his head.
Swish, swish, powerful crossbows shot at Meng Qi. Even though the dark gold was flowing, they still penetrated through, stabbing Meng Qi like a hedgehog.
As time goes by, powerful crossbows are rare. After one round, no more crossbow arrows are fired from the hole.
Duan Xiangfei was hit by seven or eight arrows, his robes were stained with blood, and he was seriously injured. He was already fighting Cui Xu.
Meng Qi stood up slowly, his back and sides were covered with dense crossbows. Blood was flowing out, dyeing the arrow shafts and white robes red. His face was pale gold, and he didn't look like a monk, but like an evil ghost returning from hell. .
He was seriously injured. If it weren't for the excellent damage reduction effect of the Golden Bell, he might have died on the spot. Still, the Golden Bell was on the verge of breaking through.
"Open it!" He glared angrily and slammed into the ice wall in front of him.
Although the golden bell was crumbling, Meng Qi's internal strength was still there, and the strength gained from practicing the golden bell was still there, knocking cracks into the ice wall with a bang.
Bang bang, the ice wall cracked, but You Tongguang calmly clapped his hands with both hands, intending to take Meng Qi's life while he was seriously injured and his footing was not stable!
At this moment, he saw a black tube in Meng Qi's hand!
