After the Fairy Disappeared

  He Lingchuan cut off the rope on his feet and lifted it back to the ground: "Guide the way, where do you want to go?"

   "The west end of the county, on the edge of Mochou Lake." Mr. Gan looked around, "Are we on the west side of the county?"

  There are only a few abandoned huts here, not far from the county center, so He Lingchuan brought him here.

   "Let's go, don't play tricks." He Lingchuan said sternly, "Your elder brother is right, this sorceress is not a fun thing, and a fool like you will definitely suffer if you deal with it."

  The two rode horses and headed west.

   The slanting wind and drizzle along the way is the breath of early summer.

  After finishing the official road, Mr. Gan guided him into the forest path.

  「Where is this going?」

   Not long after, the front was open, and there was a small building on stilts halfway up the mountain, hidden by bamboo forests.

   Behind the building is a lake, probably the Mochou Lake that Sanye Gan said.

  Living in a hut by the lake, listening to the waves of rain in the sea of ​​bamboo, it is reasonable to say that it is full of artistic conception, but in the dark rainy night, the shadows of bamboo whirling on the outer wall of this lonely small building are like evil spirits barking their teeth and claws.

  The small courtyard outside the building is only separated by a simple bamboo fence. There are many flowers in the courtyard, and there are three words on the simple bamboo gate:

  Live quietly.

  He Lingchuan got off his horse and pushed Sanye Gan forward. The latter could only bite the bullet and shout:

  「Is the witch at home?」

   There is no echo except the wind blows and the tree shakes.

  Gan Sanye could only call out twice, and added the word "excuse me".

   "Squeak", the bamboo door opened by itself.

  The two of them walked through the empty yard, picked up bamboo ladders and went up. He Lingchuan pushed open the door, and saw that the furnishings in the room were very simple:

  A table, a chair.

  An oil lamp was lit on the table, and there was a bronze mirror with some patterns on the edge of the mirror.

  A middle-aged woman was sitting on the chair.

  She was sitting upright, with her hands folded on her knees, and her eyes were fixed on the two guests who had just entered the door.

  As soon as the door was opened, the night wind blew in, suppressing the light of the oil lamp and making the woman's face cloudy.

  She has a pretty face, and her figure is a little plump, she seems to be no different from ordinary women, and she looks at the two and smiles slightly:

  「Why did Mr. Gan come in the middle of the night? Also, who is this?」

   "Luo..." Sanye Gan realized that his voice was hoarse as soon as he said a word, so he had to cough twice, "Has Luo Xun been here?"

   "I've been here, and I have conveyed your last request." The sorceress asked him, "What's the matter?"

   "I, I want to cancel the entrustment." Sanye Gan glanced at He Lingchuan, "Cancel immediately!"

   "That's not an entrustment, but a request." The witch's smile remained unchanged, "Master Gan has already made three requests. If you want to cancel, then it's the fourth request. I'm sorry, I don't accept it."

   "Hey! It can't be like this." Mr. Gan hit a nail and his face was ashen.

   "Are you the target person?" The sorceress looked at He Lingchuan and stood up slowly, "I wanted to find you tomorrow, but I didn't expect you to come to the door by yourself, very good."

  He Lingchuan grabbed Sanye Gan by the neck, pinching him until he rolled his eyes: "If I don't cancel it, I'll kill Sanye Gan. Is it okay?"

  "Since he opened his mouth, this request must be fulfilled." The witch turned the mirror on the table, "It doesn't matter whether he lives or dies."

  He Lingchuan was fully on guard, and at this moment, he subconsciously threw two throwing knives, one to grab the sorceress' throat, and the other to hit the bronze mirror on the table.

  After several months of hard training, he finally grasped the essence of it, and he was able to do what Hu Min said, "Where the eyes are, the sword and the arrow are pointing."

  However, a huge object rushed out of the mirror, blocking the two throwing knives at once.

   This is a sharp-horned ox, which is almost as huge as the buffalo monster He Lingchuan saw in Zhao Pan's army after it was off the table, and its horns are forward, as sharp as if they were specially honed.

  In such a small mirror, such a huge object can be released. The visual effect is extremely amazing, and He Lingchuan was also shocked.

  Two throwing knives poke at it like a toothpick

  People, in addition to increasing pain and anger, will not be fatal.

  So it lowered its head and rushed towards He Lingchuan and the two, even Sanye Gan was within the attack range.

  He Lingchuan had no choice but to jump up with Mr. Gan in his hands.

  The giant bull rushed past the two of them, crashing and crashing the door.

   Before the two of them landed in mid-air, another knight rushed out of the bronze mirror, and rushed towards them with both man and horse.

  He Lingchuan couldn't dodge in mid-air, so he simply used Sanye Gan as a human shield in front of him.

  Amid Sanye Gan's horrified howls, there was a "bang" and the two were knocked into the air together and broke out of the hut.

  Sanye Gan vomited blood as soon as he landed, while He Lingchuan flipped and landed on the flat ground outside the courtyard.

  The knight turned around after landing, and continued to charge towards He Lingchuan. At this time, the second, third, and fourth knights also appeared. Obviously, the mirror was still sending things out.

  What the hell, there's a whole cavalry hidden there?

  And in the eyes of He Lingchuan, whether it is a giant bull or a knight, the whole body is full of black air, and there are several evil spirits lying on their bodies.

  Yes, it is the kind of thing that used to be attached to the long-toothed pig.

   Obviously, these evil spirits control their every move, just like manipulating puppets.

   New things kept appearing in the mirror, such as jackals, birds, and even two hungry tigers, all of which aimed at He Lingchuan like this.

  Even if they can avoid the ones on the ground, they may not be able to avoid the ones in the sky.

  The most terrible thing is that they surrounded the bamboo building and used them as a barrier to prevent He Lingchuan from approaching.

   But at this moment, out of the corner of the eyes of the sorceress in the room, she suddenly felt a shadow flashing across the beam.

  She was also alert, picking up the bronze mirror on the table and was about to back away.

  However, Master Liang has already pounced, his movements are faster than the slanting swallows, he is still in the air, and the sword light has arrived.

  The sorceress, together with the mirror in her arms, was cut in half!

   It was He Lingchuan's avatar who succeeded in one blow.

  Just now, while he used Mr. Gan as a human shield in front of him, he also quietly summoned his clone and jumped on the beam. It's just that at that time the cavalry jumped high with men and horses, which happened to block the vision of the witch behind. She didn't see another "He Lingchuan" become Liang Shangjun at all.

   Like this kind of monster that summons younger brothers, He Lingchuan knew early on that to capture the thief, you must first capture the king, and if you don't kill the boss, there will be an endless stream of little monsters and little monsters.

   Sure enough, when the knife was slashed, the witch fell to the ground with a scream, and the mirror in her arms was also split in two.

  Simply neat.

  She glared at He Lingchuan's clone, her face full of resentment: "You can't escape, you will soon die without a place to bury!"

   After saying that, his body turned into fly ash, leaving only two broken mirrors on the ground.

  He Lingchuan grabbed the mirror and found that it had lost its effectiveness, it was just a broken mirror.

  Looking outside the house again, the evil spirits entangled in the beasts and people have disappeared. Everyone looked at each other for a long time, and the air was stagnant.

  But in a blink of an eye, the beasts dispersed, the birds flew into the sky, and even the two tigers jumped into the forest and disappeared.

   The wind blows the clouds away, but that's all.

  The seven or eight knights looked around blankly, as if they didn't know where they were.

  Gan Sanye fell to the ground, and when he saw He Lingchuan approaching, he yelled at him, but after a few words, his chest became tight, and he coughed several times before he could continue to curse.

  The one who killed a thousand swords actually used him as a human shield.

  He Lingchuan saw that although his face was covered with blood, he was still full of energy, and he seemed to be fine, so he mentioned that he jumped into the crumbling bamboo building, pointed to the hall and asked him:

   "The sorceress was turned into ashes after being chopped off by me. Is there any entanglement between you and it?" Otherwise, why did the dying monster still swear so much, saying that He Lingchuan was also dying soon?

   His grandfather's, this ominous sentence reminded him of the prophecy of the old turtle demon.

   "How do I know?" Gan Sanye replied, and then cursed. He Lingchuan took a rag from the next room and stuffed his mouth.

   When he went out again, those riders were still in place, not even horses and riders.

  How to move, the horseman seems a little dull.

  He Lingchuan walked over and asked, "Do you have nowhere to go?"

  One of them responded, "Where is this?"

   "Fuguo, Wuze County. How could you be possessed by evil spirits?"

  These people looked at each other in blank dismay, and it was the same man just now who said: "We were doing business on duty, and suddenly we were taken over by a monster, and I don't seem to remember it later."

  Seeing their dumb reaction, He Lingchuan couldn't help but frowned: "The evil ghost has gone, have you guys recovered yet?"

   "For some reason, my mind is dizzy, and it's hard to concentrate." The man thought for a while before asking, "Is our task still unfinished?"

  The companions all nodded.

  Facing these puppet-like living people, He Lingchuan was a little helpless and wary: "Can you report your family first?"

  The sorceress is dead, is it possible that the magical powers that trapped these people have not been eliminated?

  These people don't hide their secrets, you and I have pieced together a general idea for He Lingchuan. This matter has also been linked to the Taifu Sha Cong of the King of Beja National Treasure Tree. His son Sha Xinghai has been ungrateful since returning from Fu Kingdom.

  After investigation, Sha Xinghai actually lost his soul.

  The Taifu Mansion was shocked, so they sent this group of men to investigate and find out what Mr. Sha lost.

  These people searched all the way to the vicinity of Wuze County, met a witch, and ended up being arrested themselves.

  During the period of being possessed by evil spirits, their memory was almost completely blank, and they could not remember anything.

  He Lingchuan looked at them and said: "Don't say Mr. Sha, I think you have lost your soul."

  Why does he think that Sha Xinghai is the "honored guest" that Uncle Gan asked the sorceress to deal with?

   You see, it is also from the country of Beja. The son of the dignified Taifu came to the small county town of Fuguo, what's so strange about looking at people with his nostrils?

The person in charge is Wu Jinsong, and he himself said: "What I'm saying is that we can move freely, and our perception of the outside world is like a thick layer of veil, and we can't feel emotions. Although this witch is dead, the lost The soul has not come back, could it be hidden somewhere?"

  Everyone said: "Look around the lake again."

  In the middle of the night, He Lingchuan didn't intend to stay here to help them find their souls, so he took Sanye Gan on his way home.

  Wu Jinsong and others still remembered to bow to him to thank him, and the two sides said goodbye.

  He Lingchuan walked out more than ten feet, turned around before entering the bamboo forest, and saw that the fence had fallen, the small building was half destroyed, and the bamboo gate was also lying on the ground.
