Lu Xiao followed the laughter and looked over, and saw a man in a cloak among the crowd, looking at the juggler performing the Three Immortals Returning to the Cave with a mocking expression.
"Sir, do you have any advice?"
It is undoubtedly rude to laugh out loud when others are performing. Performers are very confident in their skills and naturally cannot bear the ridicule of others.
"It doesn't count as advice. I just feel that it's better not to show off this little trick to make people look embarrassed." As soon as he said this, it was obvious that his colleagues were here to ruin the show. As a result, the performer couldn't bear it anymore.
"Then sir, what you are saying is that there is a more powerful trick, why not show it in front of everyone to open their eyes?"
"Hahahaha, that's really funny. The main thing is that yours is just a little trick, and mine is a real trick. This real trick is not for people to show."
Lu Xiao looked slightly sideways, and he recognized the identity of this man. Cai Jian Lian Sheng, one of the top killers of Black Stone in the story. He is also an inheritor of classical acrobatic illusions.
"Hmph, what's the use of doing tricks if no one can see them? Is it possible that you can still learn real magic?"
"It's not a magic spell, but it's almost there. Have you ever heard of the Immortal Cable?"
"Could it be the Immortal Rope from the Jiaxing Rope Technique?" The magician was obviously an expert, and he directly called out the origin of the Immortal Rope.
"good."
"Hmph, the Immortal Cable was lost a hundred years ago. Are you still using it to fool people?" Naturally, the magician wouldn't believe this kind of flattery, so he directly exposed it.
"Lost? That's not necessarily true. It's just that most people can't learn this real trick. Do you want to learn it? Call me master and I will teach you."
"If you can cast the Immortal Cord in front of the big guys, then I will kneel down and become your disciple immediately."
"Hey...it seems you are out of luck." Lian Sheng shook his head and turned away with some disappointment.
Unexpectedly, the juggler followed him directly. He even mocked his Sanxian Guidong in public. How could he let him go like this? If his colleagues ruined the place, if he couldn't get it back, he would not be able to get it back.
There's no way to mess around.
Lu Xiao looked at the two people facing each other with a strange expression on his face. He patted Yu'er on the shoulder and said.
"Yu'er, haven't you always said that you want to see the real Jianghu? Maybe you can see it later."
"Brother Lu, aren't we in the arena now?" Yu'er asked in confusion.
"Yes, we are in the Jianghu now, but what you see in front of you is not necessarily the truth of the Jianghu."
When Lian Sheng saw the other party entangled him, a hint of unnoticeable joy flashed across his face.
"That's fine, I'll show you my skills today. But since you know Jiaxing Rope Skills, you must know how to perform the Immortal Rope. Do you dare to follow me?"
As he spoke, he pulled out the baggage on his back with the rope. With a shake of his right hand, the rope rose into the sky, like a bamboo pole, rising straight up to a height of more than thirty meters.
Then he clasped his hands together and slowly pulled them apart. A cloud of smoke appeared between his two palms.
As the right hand of the rope was waved, the smoke slowly rose up, all the way up the rope, and finally stopped at the top of the rope. It spread quickly, forming a large thick fog, covering the top of the rope and its surroundings.
A distance of several meters in radius was shrouded.
Just the sight of his hands caused a violent reaction among the people around him. Before he knew it, hundreds of spectators had gathered around him. At this time, everyone was clapping and cheering in unison.
"good......"
He grabbed the rope and climbed up quickly like a monkey. When he was halfway up, he turned back and said to the magician.
"Want to learn the Immortal Cable? You can learn it by following along."
Then the body with the rope moved up quickly, and disappeared into the black mist in a few breaths. At the same time, the rope on the ground also began to be absorbed into the black mist.
The juggler was initially shocked. But when he saw the rope moving up, he couldn't help it.
"Wait for me, master..." Then he jumped up and grabbed the last rope. His whole body was pulled directly into the black mist in the sky.
But just as he entered the black mist, there was a burst of screams in the air. Lu Xiao shook his head and sent himself to the door to die, but there was no one left.
The screams stopped suddenly, and blood spilled from the air. Lu Xiao casually picked up an umbrella from a stall nearby and covered his and Yu'er's heads. Everyone around him was drenched.
That's not all. Along with the blood, there were also broken limbs and broken arms of the human body.
"Ah...killed someone..."
There was a scream in the crowd, and the surrounding people fled in panic. Lu Xiao reached out to block Yu'er's eyes, preventing her from seeing the bloody scene directly.
But the smart Yu'er has already noticed what happened.
"Did he kill that person?" Yu'er asked timidly.
"That's right." Lu Xiao saw clearly just now that what fell was not the dummy in the movie, but a real human body part. He also saw the head. It belonged to the previous magician.
"But why?"
"Why? There is a high probability that the magician who used the Immortal Cord was actually a killer. He just used the Immortal Cord as a cover to kill his target in full view of the public."
Lu Xiao said and looked up at the sky. In the chaos just now, the fog in the sky had disappeared without knowing when. The performer also disappeared without a trace.
Lian Sheng was a magician, but he was also Blackstone's top killer. As soon as he made a sound, Lu Xiao guessed his intention. It was nothing more than killing people.
There was a plot in the movie that was similar to the previous scene. However, in that scene, the young man who followed him was not even killed by the rope. Moreover, it was very possible that the real magic rope was passed to the other party.
But at that time, Lian Sheng was obviously inspecting his disciples. From his brief conversations with several young men, it was known that Lian Sheng had been there for more than a day. This showed that the other party was definitely not his target.
At the same time, he also told those young people many times the story of the fairy rope.
This was obviously fishing, and the opponent's talisman did not meet his requirements. And the assessment at that time should not have ended. But the signal from Black Stone appeared, and Lian Sheng had to leave. Therefore, he could only pass on the Taoism in a hurry. So.
, although the child survived, he seemed to have suffered some kind of blow.
In the previous scene, it was obvious that the rope was used to kill people by fishing. Naturally, the killer move in the fairy rope was used.
You know, there are actually two modes of climbing the rope. If the magician's partner, usually a child, climbs up, the broken limbs that fall down are actually fake. This corresponds to the fall in the movie.
Dummy limbs.
However, according to the records in ancient books, it is even more cruel. It should be a kind of monkey that shaves its hair and stains it with blood to disguise the stumps and broken arms. Afterwards, the magician will cover these stumps and broken arms with a piece of black
Cloth. Then pretend to cast a spell, and the child will come to life again under the black cloth. This creates an effect of transfiguration and resurrection from the dead.
But if the ones who went up were the fished spectators, then they were being killed and dismembered in full view of the public. The caster directly used the black mist to cover up and disappeared without a trace.
