Chapter 74 Chapter 74 ===
Inside the main hall bedroom covered with vermilion carpet.
The candlelight swayed gently in the breeze, and white smoke was burning in the exquisite incense burner.
A monk in white was sitting quietly on the bench, his eyes were half lowered, and his round jade fingertips were plucking on the strings.The slender hands moved gracefully on the long piano, and the thin white wrists looked like agile butterflies.
His thin and straight back was like a strong bamboo in the wind. The moonlight and candlelight fused together and spread over his body, covering his pure white clothes with a light halo.
Except for Lian Huaiyu, the king who was still asleep, the eyes of the other people in the room fell on the monk in white, as if they were stuck on it, and they refused to move away for a long time.
Even the servant who was wiping his majesty's sweat forgot the movements of his hands, and his eyes fell on the Tang monk playing the piano, immersed in the wonderful sound of the other party's piano.
What's more, it was very strange that, it was clearly the sound of the zither with a pure heart, and when his eyes touched the man playing the zither, instead of being able to calm down in the sound of the zither, a strange enthusiasm surged in his chest.
And Lou Yu's eyes also changed from initial interest to undisguised amazement.
Chu Zi's piano sound was low and soft, and he played the Qingxin mantra in a rhythmic way. The sound of the piano was like a ray of quiet evening wind, slowly blowing into Lian Huaiyu's eardrums.
The soothing effect is obvious.
Lian Huaiyu, who was still murmuring in a low voice, gradually calmed down in the sound of the piano, and the sweat no longer appeared on his forehead.
Even the guards guarding outside the hall couldn't help but fell into the melodious sound of the piano.Although most of them can't appreciate the ups and downs of the melody, it doesn't prevent them from finding the sound of the piano to be elegant and pleasant.
Meanwhile, the other side.
Monkey King has already confronted Huan Ying.
The national teacher Qing Zhou used the barrier as a barrier, while Sun Wukong and his three splits fought against a phantom butterfly.
The Phantom Spirit Butterfly's strength is not very strong, mainly relying on the method of possessing and sucking blood to improve its cultivation, and the attack method is mostly based on illusions.
In the duel with the Phantom Butterfly, if there is something wrong, it is easy to be confused by the radiant scale powder on the opponent's body. Once trapped in the illusion, the defense of the body will be weakened, and the mind will be trapped in the illusion. inside.
Monkey King is the type who is stronger in melee combat than far combat. His physical fitness is extremely strong. Even if he doesn't use spells, he can definitely be regarded as the best by relying on his physical strength alone.
But Phantom Spirit Butterfly is just the opposite.The Phantom Spirit Butterfly Demon is a long-distance combat monster. Whether it is speed or physical strength, he is far inferior to Monkey King.
But because he is very good at long-distance battles, and his body is very soft, sometimes he becomes the main body, sometimes he fights in a human form, and his movements are extremely flexible, so for a while, both he and Monkey King are restraining each other, and no one occupies to the top.
Seeing this, Qing Zhou's eyes sank.After pondering for a while, he used his own blood as a medium to melt the blood from his fingertips into the incense burner, stirred it a few times, and directly sprinkled all the soot in the incense burner on the Phantom Spirit Butterfly Demon.
Huan Ying focused all his attention on resisting Monkey King's attack, and didn't notice Qing Zhou's movements at all.This made him almost unresponsive when the soot fell on him.
Even so, Huan Ying's arm was still touched by soot.Suddenly, a burning smell permeated from his arm.
His pale arms began to turn black, and the hallucinogenic scale powder on his body also dissipated a lot.
Huan Ying's pupils shrank suddenly, and he gave Qing Zhou a gloomy look, and a cold murderous intent accumulated in the bottom of his scarlet eyes: "Mortal people really can't be trusted."
Qing Zhou said: "If you cooperate with the right minister, it is destined that you will not be able to go the same way."
When Huanying heard this, he burst out laughing, "Hypocrisy!" When he said this, for some reason, Huanying suddenly thought of that Tang Sanzang whose blood he had sucked.
That guy is also extremely hypocritical.
On the surface, it is elegant and calm, with an image of a breeze and a bright moon, as if it is as gentle as water and can tolerate everything.
But in fact, under the glamorous shell of Jiyue, she is extremely indifferent, assertive, self-centered, and has a strong desire to dominate.
If he hadn't sucked Tang Sanzang's blood and lived in Tang Sanzang's consciousness, he might be deceived by the state shown by Tang Sanzang.
The monks do not lie.
And Tang Sanzang did not lie, but in another way, he continued the lie that kept everyone in the dark.
Huan Ying is disgusted by the two sides of mortals, because in his view, it is a kind of hypocrisy of mortals, just like Qing Zhou.
However, it is very strange that Huan Ying does not hate Tang Sanzang's hypocrisy.
On the contrary, he also found it very interesting.
Sun Wukong's No. [-] split looked at Huan Ying who seemed to be caught in some kind of memory. He was a little irritable, and his handsome brows frowned in displeasure: "Fighting with your grandpa, how dare you be distracted? OK."
Huanying sneered, didn't say anything, just took a meaningful look at No. [-] split body.
Seeing this, the No. [-] split couldn't help but deepen its eyes a little, and looked around vigilantly.
And Sun Wukong's No. [-] split body is the most direct among several split bodies. He has a cold temper and is too lazy to talk nonsense.From the perspective of the No. [-] split, if you can do it, do it directly, there is no need to waste unnecessary time.
The No. [-] split shot again involuntarily, and took the lead in opening up the second round of the duel between the two sides.
The main body of Monkey King fighting against the main body of the Phantom Spirit Butterfly Demon, that is, Huan Ying.The three splits of Monkey King are fighting against the other three phantom butterflies.
Due to the effect of Qing Zhou's soot, Huan Ying, whose arm was injured, fought with Monkey King, and after a few rounds, he was a little overwhelmed.
Huanying prefers spell damage, and Sun Wukong prefers physical damage. When spell damage is limited to a certain extent, physical damage occupies the top.
However, looking at Huan Ying who was retreating steadily, Sun Wukong gradually had a bad feeling in his heart.It always feels like something is going to happen.
Not just Monkey King, but his three splits also felt something was wrong.Especially Sun Wukong's No. [-] split body, he just discovered that the temperature in this barrier seems to be getting lower and lower.Not only that, but there was a strange fragrance in the air.
After kicking Huanying away with a sweeping kick, Monkey King stopped attacking.
Huanying stood up clutching his chest, wiped off the blood overflowing from the corner of his lips, and smiled unrecognizably: "Why, don't continue?"
Sun Wukong ignored Huan Ying, he raised his hand and spread out his palm, only to see scarlet rune marks appearing on the palms of his two hands.
Sun Wukong's gaze sank, and he found that his body had become extraordinarily heavy, as if a heavy stone was pressing on him, making his breathing a little short.
And in the palm of his hand, waves of heat rushed to his limbs like flames, as if they were going to burn his body.
The suddenly hot body formed a stark contrast with the cold outside temperature, like ice and fire.
Seeing the smugness in Huanying's eyes, Monkey King suddenly thought of something.
Seeing this, Huanying narrowed his eyes happily, "It seems that you have already guessed it." He laughed, and said unhurriedly: "I have sucked your blood."
After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment, and added: "Or, I was exposed to your blood when I was on your master's body."
"With your blood as the link of communication, I took the opportunity to cast a blood curse on you when we fought just now."
Sun Wukong sneered, he withdrew his hand, and said, "Do you think this can check and balance me?"
Huan Ying shrugged his shoulders: "You should be the most aware of your current body." He glanced at the three separate bodies of Monkey King, and the corners of his lips curled up: "It won't be long before you will taste the ant bite." Heartache."
Sun Wukong's split No. [-] lowered his eyes slightly, and his voice was as cold as a blade: "So?" This was the first time he spoke, and although it was a rhetorical question, there was no emotion in his tone.
It is cold and without the slightest ups and downs, reminiscent of the thousand-year-old ice.
Huan Ying was not frightened by the biting chill in No. [-]'s voice, he said calmly, "If you don't interfere with Wen Rongguo's affairs, I will lift the spell on you."
When Fragment No. [-] heard the words, he immediately laughed angrily: "You were the one who offended my master first, and you still want to pretend that nothing happened?"
Huanying also laughed, with a meaningless smile, he looked at Sun Wukong and said: "Why, after all, shouldn't you thank me?"
Sun Wukong paused.
Huan Ying followed up and said, "If it weren't for me, would you be as close as your master?"
As soon as Huan Ying's words fell, Qing Zhou at the side said to Sun Wukong: "Elder Sun, you subdue him, I have a way to break the curse."
Sun Wukong nodded.
＊＊＊＊＊＊
On Chu Zi's side, after playing the Changqin for about a quarter of an hour, even Huaiyu, who had calmed down, woke up slowly from his lethargy.
With the support of the attendant, Lian Huaiyu put on his outer shirt and slowly got up from the bed.In his dream, he felt the soothing sound of the piano.
After waking up at this moment, seeing the Changqin placed on the desk and the monk in white walking over from the Changqin, Lian Huaiyu instantly understood who played the piano when he heard it in his dream.
And if he feels right, the ups and downs and rhythm of the melody are like the derivation of the Buddhist mantra of pure heart.
Thinking of this, a warm current surged in Lian Huaiyu's heart.
Lou Yu took a step forward, knelt down on one knee, and saluted Lian Huaiyu as a courtier: "Your Majesty."
Lian Huaiyu nodded slightly, and helped Lou Yu himself: "General Lou, you don't have to be polite."
After Lou Yu stood up straight again, Lian Huaiyu turned his gaze to Chu Zi, ready to thank the monk in white.
And just when Lian Huaiyu was about to speak, he heard a loud "bang" in the sky outside.
This is the sound of fireworks exploding in the sky.
It was also a signal for Lou Yu and Qing Zhou to discuss in advance.This means that Huanying on Qingzhou's side has been successfully subdued, and can no longer pose a threat in the power struggle between His Majesty and the Right Prime Minister.
At this moment, the stone that had been hanging in the hearts of Lou Yu and Lian Huaiyu finally fell down.The two of them looked at each other, and Lian Huaiyu nodded to Lou Yu.
And at the moment when Lian Huaiyu was about to give instructions to Lou Yu, a black shadow suddenly flashed outside the room.
Lou Yu's eyes froze instantly.
Immediately afterwards, another black shadow flashed past the window.
One, two, three, four...
Soon, there was another rush of footsteps on the roof.
Lou Yu silently put his hand on the hilt of his sword, ready to attack at any time.
However, even though Lou Yu had adjusted his body to the best state to deal with the enemy, in the next second, when a phantom like lightning flashed in front of his eyes, he had no time to react at all.
Even, he didn't even see the outline of the phantom clearly.
That is, in this fleeting moment, the monk in white who was supposed to be standing on his right side disappeared.
Lou Yu was shocked, the speed was so fast!
"Holy monk..." Lou Yu looked at Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing.
And Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing were also shocked, obviously they didn't react.
Two seconds later, Sha Wujing blinked his eyelashes, and then blinked again.He raised his hands and gestured at the position where the master should have been standing: "I... Where is the master?"
After finishing speaking, he subconsciously looked at Zhu Bajie beside him: "Second senior brother, where is our master?"
And Zhu Bajie is in the pupil earthquake at the moment.
Sha Wujing muttered to himself: "...Second Senior Brother, we seem to have lost Master...?"
Zhu Bajie still didn't respond to Sha Wujing, as if he was still surprised, he just stood there in a daze, without saying a word.
Seeing this, Sha Wujing swallowed unconsciously: "If we see Senior Brother, we...you...will you say...that sentence?"
Zhu Bajie frowned at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Sha Wujing shouted: "Second Senior Brother? Second Senior Brother?"
Only then did Zhu Bajie come back to his senses, and he looked at Sha Wujing with a serious expression: "Junior Brother Sha, is there a possibility that the phantom just now is Senior Brother?"
Sha Wujing's eyes widened: "No..." Sha Wujing didn't say the last word, because he thought about it, and the phantom who robbed Master did look a bit like a senior brother.
Sha Wujing was even more surprised: "Brother, where is he going to take Master?!"
Zhu Bajie didn't speak, but his expression became more and more serious.
And Lou Yu sniffed it with the tip of his nose: "It smells like wine."
Even Huaiyu said, "That's right, there is indeed a trace of wine in the air."
