Chapter 142 Heaven and Earth Are Unkind (V)
"Don't be scared by Xu Shanshan. She is clearly just playing tricks. If her previous psychedelic array could really kill so many of us, why would she open the door to life and let us leave safely?"
The green-robed wizard spoke again. He must still be a master of verbal sparring, as he spoke one unfounded and twisted theory after another, making people dizzy and unable to distinguish the truth from the falsehood.
Everyone thought about it seriously and said: This makes a lot of sense.
Master Jiashan, Chi Jiangdong, Guyue Jiarong and Wei Canghao: So stupid.
If I don’t kill you, I can’t kill you?
Is there a possibility that she hasn't had enough fun with you and plans to continue playing with you?
Just like a cat catching a mouse, it has to torture the mouse until it is exhausted and desperate in fear and terror, and then it will swallow it in one gulp.
The old Taoist in yellow robe took out a gilded Bagua mirror, which was the size of a palm and of exquisite design. He quickly made a hand gesture and threw it into the air. Immediately, the mirror surface reflected yellow light and turned into a talisman shield covering their heads.
It is similar to a refraction effect, with the mirror as the medium to reflect the shield around it.
Someone figured out something and asked in surprise, "Golden Bell Bagua Mirror? This magical tool is not simple. I heard it can resist all the sharp weapons in the world."
Commonly known as not afraid of physical attacks.
"Could this Taoist in yellow robe be the Taoist Chihong? I heard that the Golden Bell Bagua Mirror is one of the Taoist Chihong's magical tools." Someone muttered.
Upon hearing this, the old Taoist in yellow robe turned around and smiled: "It seems that some people have heard of my name."
At this time, the blue-robed wizard also made a hand gesture and summoned a moonlight sword.
It is shaped like a curved hook, without a handle or a support. Once it appears, it keeps circling around the blue-robed wizard, sprinkling bits of light powder. These light powders look harmless and beautiful, but once inhaled into the nose, they will cause hallucinations and be fatal.
"Everyone, use your own strengths. You can defend and you can attack. I don't believe that Xu Shanshan can really fight a hundred alone. I am willing to lead the way. If you trust me and Taoist Chihong, don't think about retreating. Let's advance and retreat together."
The green-robed wizard waved his arm, set an example, took risks, and blocked the way. He had done so much that it was no exaggeration to say that many people responded.
Who can stand being recommended something once? If so, then twice.
Immediately, the sky above the outskirts of Li Mansion was red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. Who was dancing in the air with colorful ribbons?
Of course, it was the demon hunting teams that had been brainwashed and followed suit and used their own magic weapons to boost their courage.
...They don't think that just because their heads itch, they are starting to grow brains, right?
Chi Jiangdong secretly complained.
He glanced at Master Jiashan, pursed his lips, and motioned him to take a look at those people who were hot-headed and not afraid of retribution.
"If it is a blessing, it will not be a disaster. If it is a disaster, it cannot be avoided." Jiashan was helpless.
In the end, the group refused to listen to any advice and walked into the Li Mansion through the door opened by Xu Shanshan.
They walked, explored, and sensed carefully in the Li Mansion, but they felt an eerie chill rising from the soles of their feet to their foreheads.
What a strong evil spirit.
Someone must be doing something sinister. I wonder what Xu Shanshan did to the Li Mansion!
"Look, the ground is frozen."
Someone exclaimed, signaling everyone not to look too far ahead, and sometimes to lower their heads and look down at their feet.
After seeing this, they immediately understood where the chill came from. It was not some evil aura, but simply the chill caused by the drop in temperature...
"Why did the ground freeze suddenly? Isn't it autumn now?" "The lake, there is a white bead in the lake, bubbling with frost..."
Everyone looked up immediately and saw a treasure chest appeared on the artificial lake of Li Mansion. The treasure chest was open, and a pure white bead was clearly visible inside.
This bead looks like jade but is not jade. It looks white, but if you look closely you can see that the bead has a hint of green. There is a layer of white frost mist floating around it, and you can tell at a glance that it is definitely not an ordinary item.
"Don't touch it, there must be something wrong with this bead." Gu Yue Jiarong, the think tank among the four, reminded immediately.
After observing for a while, the other three people also agreed with it.
"I heard that the ancestor of the Li family was once given a tourmaline water-stabilizing bead by the great national teacher. It can stabilize the sea and the lake and ensure the safety of the local water conservancy. Could it be this? It must be! This must be the tourmaline water-stabilizing bead!"
Someone explained the confusion to everyone in an exaggerated and amazed tone.
The magic of this tourmaline water-stabilizing bead is that no matter how dangerous the water situation ahead is, once this bead is thrown in, the water situation can be calmed.
Of course, this is not only a treasure, it is also a rare water-grade magical weapon.
"I never thought it would emerge unexpectedly from the bottom of the lake. Otherwise, who would have guessed that the Li family hid the tourmaline water-fixing beads at the bottom of their own lake."
Many people's eyes were filled with greed, staring at the watery tourmaline water bead, and they unconsciously moved closer to the lake.
Master Jiashan always had a bad feeling in his heart, and he couldn't help but dissuade them: "Wait a minute, if you take it away, will it cause serious consequences to the Li Mansion and She Yuan?"
Presumably, there must be a deeper purpose behind the Grand Master's gift of the tourmaline beads to them. If they forcibly took possession of the tourmaline beads to satisfy their selfish desires, wouldn't they be committing a grave sin, causing unpredictable consequences?
"What are the consequences? If such a treasure falls into the hands of these mortals, it will only be a waste. Only we can make the most of it."
"Yes."
Chi Jiangdong, who knew Xu Shanshan to some extent, said in a deep voice: "Don't you think this is too strange? This might be a trap."
Now that things have come to this, shouldn't they be more alert?
No, you can never wake up someone who is pretending to be asleep.
"Strange? No, it seems to me that the Li Mansion can't bear the blessing of the Tourmaline Dingshui Pearl, and it is planning to choose another master."
A man with feathers on his head, who looked like he was from a mysterious tribe, took the lead in attacking the tourmaline water-fixing beads without hesitation.
When he stretched out his hand to grab it, a voice sounded behind him: "Even if it is, the master may not be you."
A colorful light flashed by, and a group of colorful butterflies flew out. The man glanced back and shook out a gourd. The seeds in the gourd turned into green vines when they came into contact with the air and whipped towards the butterflies.
In an instant, countless butterflies shattered and fell into the lake.
Someone was chanting in the back. After a long string of incantations was finished, he transformed into a spirit whip, tied it far away, and jumped forward...
Suddenly, more than a dozen people came forward to fight for the tourmaline water-fixing beads, using all kinds of tricks, which were dazzling.
"They're already fighting among themselves before they even meet Xu Shanshan. Do they really not see any problem?" Chi Jiangdong was speechless.
"People die for money, and birds die for food." Wei Canghao said lightly.
Jiashan frowned suspiciously: "If it were according to her previous style, she would have fought back against those who came with ill intentions, but now she is doing these..."
He didn't know what to say for a moment, but Gu Yue Jiarong immediately answered: "Intrigue."
"What on earth does she want to do?"
