41, Chapter 41(1/4)

After saying this, Lin Chengyou stood up and threw an object out of the window. With a long scream, the object jumped into the air. Soon, footsteps sounded in the corridor, and Juesheng and Qizhi arrived.

The two of them were obviously prepared. Juesheng held Lin Chengyou's quiver in his arms, and Qi Zhi hung Lin Chengyou's golden long bow on his shoulder. When they arrived at the door, they said in unison: "Senior brother!"

Lin Chengyou hung the quiver on his back and took the long bow from Qi Zhi. Finally, he glanced at Peng Yugui and Teng Yuyi and said to Jue Sheng, "Take good care of this place. The murderer is seriously injured. Don't let him die."

Then he said to Qi Zhi: "Take Yan Sizhi and the others to the small Buddhist hall. Before the corpse evil comes, I will hunt down the young man in gold first."

After saying that, he jumped up to the window sill, stretched out his arms, and flew out of the window like a white crane.

Qizhi was stunned for a moment, and said loudly to Yan Sizhi and others: "Follow the poor road quickly."

As soon as the person left, the room immediately returned to silence. Juesheng was stunned for a moment and ran over to check on Peng Yugui's injury.

Teng Yuyi was afraid that he would not be able to press the wound, so he did not dare to loosen his grip on his hand. Fortunately, as he pressed it, the blood flow slowed down, and perhaps because of the pills he had taken, Peng Yugui's face also brightened a little.

"Were you injured by the young man in gold?" Juesheng only knew that He Mingsheng was the murderer, but he didn't know the whole story. Seeing that He Mingsheng was dying, he was inevitably surprised.

Teng Yuyi was about to answer, but the noise outside suddenly became chaotic. First, there were countless children running and playing in the corridor, and then the voices of women came. There would never be so many people in the building at once.

Teng Yuyi knew what it was.

Juesheng hissed: "Don't pay attention. They are just evil spirits. They are not very smart. There are talismans painted by senior brother on the door. They can't break in."

Teng Yuyi breathed a sigh of relief, but began to worry about the safety of Uncle Cheng and Huo Qiu. In order to lure Peng Yugui into taking the bait, she dressed up as Juan Erli and stayed in the wing here, while Uncle Cheng and Huo Qiu stayed with Juan Erli.

In the room opposite.

Uncle Cheng and Huo Qiu must also be worried about her at this moment. If Zixie takes advantage of this to set up a trap, I wonder if they can handle it.

She said to Jue Sheng: "Uncle Cheng and Huo Qiu are in the opposite room. I'm afraid that Xixie will make a fuss about this, so I have to send them a message as soon as possible."

Juesheng patted his chest: "Don't worry, Mr. Wang. Senior brother has thought of this a long time ago. When Qi Zhi comes back later, he will go to the opposite room to guard Juan Erli. If you are still not at ease, when Qi Zhi comes, I will

Go and fetch Uncle Cheng and Brother Huo."

"That's easy to talk about." Teng Yuyi listened attentively. Those evil spirits really only dared to run wild in the corridor. Presumably as long as the door is not opened, the monsters and ghosts cannot break in. Uncle Cheng is a man with a lot of strategy and must have noticed this a long time ago.

a little.

She calmed down and looked back at Peng Yugui. He was gritting his teeth and sweating, apparently silently enduring the pain of his wound.

She stared at Peng Yugui's free right hand, and couldn't find it through the iron shoes. It took no effort to get it. She had only seen this kind of rain-like hidden weapon twice. Once was when she saw the man in black robe with her own eyes before he was killed in her previous life.

He used this hidden weapon to kill Duan Fu, and the other time was in the hands of Peng Yugui.

Unfortunately, before she could take a closer look, the hidden weapon was taken away by Lin Chengyou.

She thought for a while, lowered her head and took out a small lacquer box from the belt around her waist, and said to Peng Yugui in a warm voice: "I have some good medicine here, which is quite effective in relieving pain. I'll give it to you to use. How much can it do?"

Be comfortable."

Peng Yugui forced a smile and said: "Thank you, Mr. Wang, for your kindness. But no, I almost hurt you just now. Peng is really not worthy of receiving this medicine."

Teng Yu reluctantly opened the cloth and sprinkled the powder on the wound.

Peng Yugui was silent. The medicine had the effect of paralyzing the body, and the wounds that were originally burning were immediately cooled down a lot.

He tried to raise his head and said with difficulty: "Thank you."

Juesheng hurriedly pushed Peng Yugui back to the ground: "Be careful of pulling on the wound."

Teng Yuyi covered the cloth again, but secretly thought in her heart that in the past, she had only seen this person as slippery and greedy for money, but when he was seriously injured, he showed a little bit of his true nature. This kind of humble demeanor is engraved in his bones, no matter how much time ravages it, it will not change.

It will be damaged, which shows that although the Peng family was poor at that time, they were not ambiguous in educating their children.

After Peng Yugui thanked him, he turned to Fang Liang without a word, and he didn't know what he was thinking of. There was a strange blankness in his expression.

Teng Yuyi looked at him thoughtfully. Judging from Peng Yugui's expression, she could not see any desire to live.

"Boss Peng insists on rushing back to Yuezhou. Does he have any unfulfilled wish?" she said abruptly.

Peng Yugui was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "Young Master Wang saw it."

However, he didn't say anything further, he just turned his eyes silently and looked out the window.

Teng Yuyi looked out and happened to see a corner of the eaves of the front building. Under the blue night, a dark red full moon hung on the verandah beam. The moonlight was unprecedentedly strange, as if it could drip blood at any time. A strange light fell down.

, covering the blue glazed tiles with a layer of red tulle.

She remembered that Peng Yugui's bedroom was on the third floor. He stared at that place, but what did he have in mind?

After watching for a while, she couldn't figure out what was going on, so she had to start another topic: "In order to deceive Boss Peng, Lin Chengyou recruited some evil spirits to pretend to be evil spirits, but this moment was different. The two monsters really broke in. Look at this celestial phenomenon.

, I don’t know who has the upper hand now.”

Peng Yugui laughed at himself: "It's all my fault for not being good at learning. I thought that resentful thing was just a corpse evil. I didn't know there was a scam in it. If only I had a deeper skill, I wouldn't make trouble and treat ordinary ghosts as evil spirits."

It’s a joke to make a zombie.”

"Boss Peng, why should you be so modest?" Teng Yuyi said, "I have lived in Caifeng Tower these days, and I have never seen that Boss Peng has any special skills. Not only me, but even Lin Chengyou and the five Taoist priests have not noticed anything wrong.

"

Peng Yugui forced a smile and said: "They are just some heretics. When it comes to Taoist skills, they are far inferior to those from a famous family like the prince. Their skills are too low, so it is effortless to hide them."

Teng Yuyi said in surprise: "But the Kungfu that Boss Peng used just now is impressive. I don't know which Taoist school Boss Peng studied. He went out pretending to be a free and easy person before, but..."

Is it just to follow Qingzhi?

Peng Yugui obviously guessed what Teng Yuyi was suspicious of, his face changed, and he immediately lowered his eyes and didn't answer.

Teng Yuyi exchanged glances with Juesheng, took out the Xiaoya Sword from his sleeve, and said with a wry smile: "To be honest, I have been practicing Taoist swordsmanship recently because I mistakenly took some Taoist spiritual grass, but even the most basic beginner sword

The Dharma is also quite difficult for me. Wudao said that I only started learning it halfway, so it should be difficult no matter how difficult it is. But I just heard from Boss Peng that I realized that you were not too young when you met that foreigner?"

Peng Yugui nodded: "Peng was already in his early twenties when he practiced this technique."

"So according to me, whether a person learns well or not is not only related to himself, but also has a lot to do with his master. Boss Peng was a few years older than me when he started, and he was able to practice like this in just a few years.

Kung Fu shows that the pagan is very capable. Just now I saw that Boss Peng’s skills in using concealed weapons are extremely proficient. Is he also from the pagan religion?”

Peng Yugui hesitated for a moment and then said yes.

Teng Yuyi expressed admiration: "This is the first time in my life that I have seen such a hidden weapon as thin as rain. If rolled up in my hand, it would be about the size of a ball of silk thread. No wonder Lin Chengyou and his people failed to find it after several rounds of searches.

, Boss Peng has been hiding it in his sleeve?"

Peng Yugui's eyes twitched slightly, and after a moment he answered: "This is what I use for self-defense. It is sewn into my cuffs on weekdays. I will never use it unless my life is at stake."

Teng Yuyi said curiously: "This thing is neither gold nor silver. I don't know what it is made of. I heard someone said that Nanzhao had a similar hidden weapon. When the Corpse King was in trouble, the generals of the local military camp saw it off with a 'string'

I got a pair of fangs from the Corpse King. I heard that the pair of strings are also very thin and strong. I wonder if they are the same kind as yours. Boss Peng, did you get this hidden weapon from that stranger?"

Peng Yugui thought for a moment and smiled faintly: "No matter how slow Mr. Wang learns, it is still Dongmingguan's orthodox Taoism. Although evil magic can be achieved quickly, it brings infinite harm. To be honest, if I was not eager for revenge, I would never

Prince, you don't have to envy me if you will be contaminated by evil spirits. There are advantages to being slow."

Teng Yuyi paused, nodded and smiled: "Boss Peng is right."

In her heart, she wondered whether Peng Yugui deliberately changed the subject because she was worried about the stranger or someone else. Judging from this weird hidden weapon, it was clear that he had some connection with the weirdo who harmed her in her previous life, but whenever she thought about it,

If you inquire deeply, he will change the subject without revealing any trace. It can be seen that this magic hides some secrets, and for Peng Yugui, this secret must not be told to outsiders.

It was impossible to stop here. After searching for so long, she finally came across someone who might know the murderer. If she couldn't find out this time, where would she go to look for clues in the future? It didn't matter if she refused to say it now, she would always

Find a way to get him to speak.

She carefully uncovered the cloth, and was shocked to find that Peng Yugui's wounds were still oozing blood, and the edges of the dead flesh that had been torn and rolled up by the giant claws had a faint greenish-gold color.

It seemed that the danger was gone, and her heart sank. No wonder Lin Chengyou left Peng Yugui here. He was afraid that if he moved, Peng Yugui's injury would accelerate.

She hurriedly pressed the wound again, and Peng Yugui seemed to have expected something, and said sadly: "Young Master Wang, don't worry anymore, I can't survive tonight, I know it in my heart. Everything is fate. In this life, poverty leads to longevity.

It has been decided long ago."

Teng Yuyi sneered and said: "Zi Xie is coming for me. Whether I can keep the heart in my chest tonight is still uncertain. Before I could say anything, Boss Peng got frustrated first. He died.

What is fate? If Boss Peng had been willing to accept his fate, he wouldn't have been so desperate. So you don't have to say these depressing words to me. I have never believed in fate, nor have I accepted it."

Peng Yugui was stunned. He had already inquired about the details of this prince. Her father-in-law was Teng Shao and her mother-in-law was from the Taiyuan Wang family. Such a daughter of a famous family should be held in the hands of her father-in-law like a delicate flower.

Even though she has grown up, Mrs. Teng’s decisiveness and calmness are really confusing.

Judging from her age, she is still in her hairpin years at best. I don’t know where this kind of perseverance beyond her age came from. Suddenly I thought that Baojiao was about the same age as Lady Teng. If she could have survived—

He felt pain in his heart, shook his head and said: "It's not that Peng wants to accept his fate, it's just that I'm injured——"

Whether a seriously injured person can survive sometimes depends on his breath. Teng Yuyi was about to provoke him with words, but then there was a strange sound outside the window. It sounded like the sound of an arrow, but the sound was longer and higher pitched.

Teng Yuyi and Juesheng quickly exchanged glances: "Zixie is coming."

This was the secret signal that Lin Chengyou had arranged with everyone earlier for the appearance of Xixie. If the command arrow only rang once, it meant that Xixie was disguised as a barbarian when he showed up, and then his first target would be Juan Erli.

If it rings twice and three times, the targets are Teng Yuyi and Ge Jin respectively.

There was only one shot of the command arrow just now, so the target of Zixie was naturally...

"Juan'erli!" Juesheng was both nervous and happy. "Senior brother and Prince Wang have guessed correctly. Corpse evil really comes in order. Juanerli can't stay in the room any longer. He has to go to Yane Palace as soon as possible."

Zhu Zhong, go. I’ll inform her right away. If it’s too late, Xixie won’t take the bait.”

Teng Yuyi hurriedly grabbed him: "Don't mess up your position. Your senior brother must have been prepared. If you open the door randomly at this time, be careful of evil spirits taking advantage of it."

Juesheng slapped his forehead: "Young Master Wang is right, I'm dizzy with anxiety."
