"Huh?" Upon hearing the name, Xie Run looked the merchant up and down again, as if confirming the other person's appearance.
He was relatively calm, but two seconds later, Kong Hengji, who was sitting not far away, jumped up.
"Unbridled!" Seeing the scholar's stern face, he shouted sternly, "Since the beginning of this dynasty, two emperors have successively abolished the ban on the surname Hu and the name Hu, and handed it over to the Ministry of War. Make up the collection and give names. Now in our territory, is there anyone named Yelu? Why do you dare to call yourself Hu? Could it be that you are a craftsman sent by the Tatars of the Northern Yuan Dynasty? ? Or do you want to rebel? "
How about saying that scholars are not easy to mess with?
As the saying goes - in the hands of seven-inch moso bamboo, half-worker, half-farmer and half-student. When you are thirsty, you come to the pond to drink ink; when you are full, you come to the paper to shake your power. He went to the palace to profess civil and military fear, and when he entered the temple and left poems, the gods and ghosts were frightened. This pen falls into the hands of the enemy, and it dares to compare with the edge of a murderous sword.
What does this mean? It means that you must not offend those who hold pens. You must let them seize the opportunity. Even if a hat is pulled off, even if it does not cost your life, it can still make you lose your skin.
Right now, Kong Hengji is seizing the opportunity.
When he saw that this businessman and Xie Run were about to have a conflict, he hurriedly fanned the flames. They just announced their names, so he was labeled as a rebel.
Can I say this nonsense?
There is a saying that "no merit is as great as rescuing someone, and no crime as great as treason". During the reign of the feudal dynasty, this was the biggest sin in the world.
Why did Kong Hengji say this? It was just because someone else had an argument with him just now.
"Hahaha..." After hearing Kong Hengji's words, the footman showed no fear at all and was still smiling strangely, "Rebellion? Hahahaha..." He smiled, and suddenly his expression As soon as he changed, his face was full of ferocity, and he jumped up and shouted, "You Han people are rebelling!"
Before he could finish shouting, he had already rushed towards the scholar.
His throwing technique was extremely strange... It was as if he was like a puppet on strings. Without any movement at all, he jumped up and down with his limbs twisted. It rose more than ten feet high, passed over everyone's heads, and fell straight to where Kong Hengji was.
"Ah——" Before the people arrived, Kong Hengji himself was paralyzed on the ground and screamed.
However, he was wasting his feelings, because just when the foot business started to rise, Xie Run also took action...
Xie Run was tall, and he was too tall. There was no need to take off. He just stood on tiptoes and stretched out his arms to grab the foot merchant's ankle while he was in mid-air. Then with a force, he pulled the trader off from above and threw him heavily to the ground.
Seeing these two people taking action, others also had their own reactions.
The doctor was the most alert. He immediately picked up his luggage, hid far away, and retreated all the way to the door of the main hall, as if he was ready to run away at any time.look.
Sun Huanglei and the three others stood up and took a defensive posture, fearing that the fight between the two would harm Chi Yu.
As for the scholar Kong Hengji, his legs were so frightened that he collapsed on the ground unable to move.
"Ahaha...hahahaha..." Unexpectedly, after the foot trader fell onto his back, he laughed wildly again, and his body began to tremble unnaturally.
At this moment, Xie Run was still holding the opponent's ankle and didn't let go, but when he saw that the opponent's actions were very strange, he let go out of caution.
As a result, as soon as he let go, the foot merchant was like a piece of clothing in a drum washing machine. He was lying on his side and "spinning" before flying up. In a move that was difficult to achieve even with Qinggong, he stood up again while spinning.
"Humph...it turns out he is still a master." Xie Run saw this move and made a judgment at that time. He snorted coldly and then asked, "Brother, Ming people don't do secret things, since If you dare to come to me, then stop pretending to be a Tatar and tell me your real name!"
But the foot trader ignored him at all and smiled strangely. He turned around and rushed towards a pillar in the hall, and then... he did something that made everyone present feel incredible - he bent his limbs like a lizard and pressed against the smooth surface of the pillar, He climbed all the way to the ceiling and hung upside down above everyone's heads in the same posture.
This is not over yet. After he went up, he turned his neck to an angle that would definitely cause fractures for normal people, and continued to smile strangely at the six people below. He smiled, his mouth There was blood dripping from it...
This time, it was not something that could be explained by "Qinggong".
The doctor, Tian Wu, was older and more superstitious. When he saw this scene, he immediately pointed at the foot trader "lying down" on the ceiling and exclaimed: "The ghost... is the upper body of a ghost!"
When he shouted this, everyone suddenly remembered what the boatman Wang Sanliu said before...
People had repeatedly tried to dissuade them before, saying that Lanruo Temple was haunted. There is no way out, but they don't believe it. Now, seeing this scene that cannot be explained by common sense, they are all shaken.
"No...impossible, there are no ghosts in this world." Xie Run was very courageous. He firmly did not believe this. Even at this moment, he insisted and said, "He must have used What mechanism, these are all deceptions!"
Is this possible?
It’s really possible.
For Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai, who have traveled from modern times, they have also seen more exaggerated magic or movies. With their vision and imagination, they can indeed use some theories to solve it. Explanation, for example: The palms and knees of this guy are equipped with some kind of special gel that has strong suction and can bear the weight of an adult.
But Xie Run...actually he didn't know how the other party did it.There is no reasonable speculation. The "hidden trick" he said is more of a deception to himself and others, to stabilize people's hearts and prevent others from losing their position due to fear.
"Hehehe... Xie Run, do you believe this?" At this time, the merchant on the ceiling spoke again, "Do you think there is any mechanism that can do this... like this... "?"
When he said the last three words, his head suddenly began to expand rapidly like a balloon, and in an instant it became larger than a water tank.
As a result, even Sun Yixie thought it was haunted: "Damn it! Is there really a ghost?"
Before he finished speaking, he could hear again With a "bang", the door of the hall closed on its own.
Tian Wude, who was standing by the door and holding on to the doorframe, was staggered by the force of the door closing and almost fell down.
Immediately afterwards, the head of the foot trader "exploded" during the rapid expansion... With a muffled sound, a massive amount of blood poured out from the huge head, like a waterfall. It splashed down like a crash; this was not over yet, after the head "exploded" off, blood continued to gush out from the wound on the pedestrian's neck, and the blood flowed violently, as if a dam had burst.
In the blink of an eye, the hall was soaked in blood, and the "blood level" had reached everyone's knees.
"What's going on?" At this moment, even Huang Donglai was panicking, "Is this ghost so fierce? He uses his ultimate move right from the start? At least he should pinch his neck or something first."
p>
"Two...two brothers, what...what should we do now?" Lei Buji was so frightened that he stuttered.
The two of them were still in shock. Sun Yixie had already rushed to the closed door and kicked the door a few times, but the door did not move at all.
"Oh, damn!" Sun Yixie was so anxious that he cursed loudly.
"Brother Sun, go on!" A second later, Huang Donglai also reacted, picked up Sun Yixie's trident, and threw it towards the latter.
Sun Yixie took it easily, and then without saying a word, he poked at the joint of the door lock, but...he couldn't penetrate it.
Not only could it not be penetrated, but it could not even leave a white spot.
This is a precious weapon that can sharpen iron like clay, but the door is just made of thicker wood and paint. This is absolutely abnormal.
At the same time, Xie Run also took action.
He stared at the headless body on the ceiling that was constantly spurting out blood like a thick water pipe. He hesitated for a moment, then stood up using his strength and stepped on the wall on one side. He flew up and wanted to pull down the body to see what it was all about.
Then...he succeeded.
He really pulled off the headless body, and after pulling it off, he discovered that there was nothing special about it.
It was an ordinary body of flesh and blood, with no head, and blood pouring out from the neck continuously; the amount of blood pouring out had already exceededThe total amount of blood in a person's body is reached, and it reaches the level of a public swimming pool.
"This...this..." Xie Run was really scared now. His scalp was numb. He was so frightened that he quickly let go of the headless body and took a few steps back.
But at this time... the blood level in the hall has reached everyone's waist.
"Quick! Get out of the back door!" About five seconds later, it was Huang Donglai's shout that brought Xie Run back to his senses.
When everyone heard this, they each waded in blood and walked slowly and hurriedly to the back of the palace.
In ancient times, the main halls of temples generally had front and back doors. The front door opened towards the main courtyard, and the back door led to other places in the temple. Lei Buji just left when he went to find firewood. It's the small door at the back of the palace.
Facing the crisis now, Huang Donglai first thought of looking at the back door.
However...the reality is desperate. When everyone came to the back door, they found that, like the front door, it was also closed and could not be opened.
"Damn!" Sun Yixie cursed again when he saw this, but then he suddenly became wise and took the lead to run towards the Buddha statue in the main hall, "No matter what! Go hide in a higher place first!"
As he spoke, he stepped onto the altar table and climbed along the body of the Buddha statue to the Buddha's shoulders.
Although the other people were hesitant, after thinking about it for a while, they followed suit and climbed onto the Buddha statue one after another - after all, they were between life and death, and they didn't care about the Buddha at this time. I respect you very much, to say the least, even if you are struck to death by thunder, it would be more satisfying than drowning in the blood pool created by this evil spirit.
However, even if they climbed to a high place, it would only delay the situation for a little while and would not solve the problem.
It didn’t take long for the blood to catch up, and even the huge Buddha statues high above were drowned in the blood tide.
Just when everyone was gradually being swallowed up by despair and collapse...
Dang——
Dang——
Dang— —
Three bells rang out from somewhere.
The voice sounded solemn and distant, but also revealed a bit of sadness and sadness.
After the bell rang, everyone opened their eyes.
They were all still sitting around the fire.
Because you are wearing clothes that are not yet dry, it is normal for you to dream of being soaked in water or something else after falling asleep.
Except for the foot trader, the other six people looked around and looked at each other after waking up. They could tell from each other's eyes that they all had the same dream.
"When did we... fall asleep?" After a breath, Huang Donglai was the first to speak, asking suspiciously.
No one answered him, because no one remembered when they fell asleep, but everyone remembered what happened in the "dream".
After thinking about it, everyone started brushingHe cast his sights on the traveling businessman.
At this moment, he was the only one, still sleeping on his suitcase, and he was sleeping soundly.
"Hey, wake up." Xie Run is an activist. Now that things have happened, he doesn't want to pretend to be an ordinary person anymore, so he went over and patted the foot trader on the shoulder. Wake him up and question him.
Unexpectedly, with just a tap, the foot trader's head was severed from his neck... and rolled to the ground.
