Chapter 8 It doesn’t need to be that far
On the other side, Lin Xiao in front of the treasure hall stared at the opponent with his eyes. His hands were like hooks, condensing his true energy, pressing down, and then raising up again.
Just after hearing a "whoosh", the open space originally paved with bricks and stones suddenly surged into two streams of earth, rock and mud. Like two arms, they grabbed Li En and Yu in mid-air, pulled them down, and directly pulled them back to the ground.
,Can’t move!
Li Enhe's face turned pale, and sweat instantly appeared on his forehead. No matter how he told himself that this was impossible, Lin Xiao, who was seriously injured, would never be able to use such a spell, but the ironclad fact still shattered his illusions.
.
In an instant, an ominous premonition suddenly crept into his mind. Li En and his steel teeth bit down, and just as they were about to chop up the earth and rocks, they felt a darkness in front of them. Half of the broken stele that had fallen in the courtyard was rising up, mixed with terrifying tornadoes.
The sound of wind hits me.
Boom——!
The scattered gravel and soil instantly submerged Li Enyu's figure in the courtyard.
In the distance, blood spilled from the corners of Lin Xiao's pursed mouth and nostrils, and his bloodshot eyes were particularly ferocious. This was a sign that his true energy was exhausted, but his movements did not stop at all.
Another jade talisman shattered in his palm, and several wind blades rose up without a trace and shot out in front of him, leaving traces across the courtyard and cutting into the smoke and dust that had not yet dispersed.
Almost at the same time, Li Enyu's screams suddenly sounded.
"Arm, my, my arm——!".
What followed was the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground, and even more painful moans.
Looking at the blurry figure in the distance, Lin Xiao withdrew his true energy, wiped the blood on his face, and walked over step by step.
In the smoke and dust, Li En and his right arm were severed. The severed arm holding the long knife fell not far away. Two wounds on his legs were bleeding profusely. At this time, he was trying his best to lie down towards the temple door.
With every step I take, there is a trail of bright red blood behind me.
Lin Xiao looked down and stepped on the hem of his shirt that was dragging on the ground.
Li Enyu paused for a moment, turned around and looked back. In his eyes was only the figure who was supposed to die under his knife. For a moment, his hoarse voice was almost crazy.
"You, your cultivation, how do you still have cultivation! Aren't you seriously injured? How can you still use the Wood Spirit Formation, the Earth Spirit Formation, and the Wind-inducing Knife! This is impossible, impossible!
”
"Yes, this is my biggest secret. Now, you know." Lin Xiao's voice was very soft.
Li Enyu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed wildly. "Hahaha... What's going on! You want to kill me? You want to kill me? Hahaha... Killing the disciples at the foot of Hanxi Mountain, Lin Xiao, you have had enough of life.
What! Let me lend you some courage and ask if you dare!"
"That's right, I really didn't want to kill you at the beginning. After all, the Sutra School beat you up, and you used money to arrange for me to be sent to a remote place in a poor country. It's considered fair." Lin Xiao said, but he sighed, "But there is one thing,
You said it well, 'The sky is high and the emperor is far away, no one knows whether I am dead or alive'. You really want me to die..."
Li Enyu's face turned pale, "You, you heard that?! How did you..."
"How did I hear that? You and I have been studying together for five years, and you seem to retaliate, so your beating will be in vain? You seem to be suspicious by nature, will you watch Manager Qu take money to do things with your own eyes?" Lin Xiao smiled.
, "But these are not important. What is important is that I don't need to go that far to kill you..."
Li En and his eyes trembled, and he immediately figured out something.
"You! You were pretending to be crazy in the hall that day! You wanted to take the initiative to come to the outer door! You fucking tricked me!" Li Enyu suddenly roared, but even faster, he shook his head crazily and said: "No,
Don’t you dare kill me! Otherwise, if Shanmen Law Hall tracks you down, you will die without a burial place!”
Lin Xiao asked slowly: "Who believes that I can kill you?"
"I..." Li En Yuxiang's words were stuck in his throat, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"As you said that day, the steps have been raised for me, so hurry up and get down. Now that I'm down, can you catch me?..."
As he spoke, Lin Xiao flipped his wrist and took the long sword in his hand. The tip of the sword was pointed at Li Enyu's choked throat, and he stabbed down slowly.
Only then did Li En realize that the other party was really going to take action, and he immediately begged loudly for mercy.
"No, no, senior brother Lin, please let me go, let me go..."
Seeing the tip of the sword getting closer and closer, his eyes were full of panic, and he tried his best to move back, but someone stepped on the hem of his clothes, and he was seriously injured, so how could he escape.
"Remember, I, Lin Xiao, am a human being. Gratitude does not fall to the ground, and hatred does not last overnight. I will die."
"Senior Brother Lin, Master..."
Before Li Enyu could finish speaking, the tip of the sword pierced his skin, slowly moving downwards, inch by inch. Scarlet blood choked into his trachea and spewed out from his mouth. His mouth opened and closed on its own, but no words came out.
A complete syllable, and a moment later, his whole body trembled, and he collapsed on the ground, completely motionless.
Seeing that Li En and Yu were dead, Lin Xiao drew his sword and staggered, took a few steps back, and could no longer hold on. He only felt a sweetness in his throat, and with a pop, a mouthful of blood spurted out.
At the same time, a series of sounds of spiritual stones exploding came from all directions. Because the true energy was exhausted, even the magic circle deployed in the courtyard could no longer be maintained.
"No, not yet..."
Enduring the severe pain in the sea of consciousness, Lin Xiao took a deep breath, threw a jade talisman, and turned into a ball of orange fire. It landed on Li Enyu's body with a bang, and burned it completely in just a moment.
Net.
Leaning over to pick up the unburned storage bag, Lin Xiao scanned the whole courtyard for the last time. Feeling that there should be no problem, he removed the last layer of soundproofing array and flew out of the ruined temple.
…………
An hour later, a ray of light fell from the sky and landed in the ruined temple, in front of the treasure hall.
The light dispersed, and two monks appeared. They bowed to the treasure hall with their palms in hand and recited the Buddha's name.
"Immeasurable pure light."
When you look closely, you can see that one of them is wearing a snow-white cassock with gold thread rolling on it and is holding a Zen staff. The other person is just the opposite, with a mysterious body and empty hands, holding only a string of rosary beads.
It is strange to say that in Lujiang Town at the foot of Hanxi Mountain, where the main hall of the outer gate is located, there are always experts coming in and out, but no one noticed this escaping light at this moment.
"Is this here?" The monk in white looked around with a hollow voice.
"It's right here, but there seems to be no one." The monk in black frowned slightly, his eyes like an eagle slowly scanned the open space in front of him, his empty palm silently formed seals, and as the gestures changed, a pale golden stream of light swirled on his fingertips.
, and was finally shot out by the monk with a flick of his finger.
In the open space in front of the treasure hall, the golden light suddenly exploded into a piece of light dust, drifting like smoke and slowly falling from the mid-air. After a while, a scarlet trace of a human figure appeared on the floor tiles, flickering brightly and dimly.
"The real fire burned the traces, some people died, some people left..."
"I'm afraid that's the case." The monk in black stopped his meditation and said in a regretful tone, "After all, it's too late. It's a pity, it's a pity..."
"The deduction of the great road is extremely difficult. Master also said that if you don't find it, you don't have to force it." The monk in white continued: "You and I will return to the temple and return to the decree."
"That's it. The second time of Master's approval won't be too long. Junior brother can just wait." After the monk in black finished speaking, he added, "You and I can help with this trace?
”
But I saw the monk in white shaking his head, "Senior brother, this is wrong. You and I are already involved in this cause and effect, so there is no need to talk about whether to help or not."
The monk in black nodded and smiled. "Junior brother, what you said makes sense." As he spoke, the monk's robe was rolled up, and the scarlet traces suddenly ignited the golden fire of the Buddha.
The monk in white didn't pay attention to this, but turned to look at the treasure hall and whispered, "Xianye? Moye? Buddhaye?"
"Let's go!" As soon as the black-clothed monk finished speaking, the light suddenly appeared and swept the two of them through the air, disappearing without a trace.
Not long after, the Buddha's fire was extinguished and disappeared, and the ruined temple returned to its former desolate and dead silence.
