Chapter 365
The moon was obscured at some point, and the sky darkened, only the paper lanterns were filled with light, and the hardy snow-eating moths fluttered around the red lanterns, playing music that only happens when people are dead, and playing gongs and drums. Evil voices filled the world.

Looking around, it seemed that the wind was blowing from hell, and the crowd was like vines, swaying their bodies uniformly, no matter whether they were short, tall, fat or thin, their bodies showed a strange coordination.

The ghost Buddha on the chariot has only a huge black back.

After Mu Shijing realized something was wrong, he immediately wanted to draw his sword, but Lin Shouxi stopped him, saying: "The dancer cannot stop before the music stops."

but……

Mu Shijing understood that Lin Shouxi wanted her to stand still, and wait and see what happened to them.

She nodded and swayed along with other people's movements. She has practiced dancing, and it is not difficult to imitate, but she has a slim waist and nimble steps, and it is difficult to dance out of that intoxicated zombie feeling. .

Mu Shijing imitated painstakingly, turned his head and saw that Lin Shouxi had merged with the dancing figures.

The bewitching yet hollow dance has an insane beauty, without any flaws, and even gives Mu Shijing the illusion that he has really been taken away.

Mu Shijing became competitive again. She closed her eyes and imagined herself as a tree.

The crowd surged forward.

gradually.

Mu Shijing's consciousness gradually blurred, she didn't feel that she was imitating, but really singing and dancing with the music from her heart, when she realized, she couldn't even get rid of this state, the music was a puppet The silk thread has already fixed all her limbs, and she can't let her make decisions.

The girl was terrified and wanted to call Lin Shouxi for help, but she was hit on the back of the head.

"Walk."

Lin Shouxi's voice rang in her ears.

With the flick of Lin Shouxi's fingers, Mu Shijing's "out of mind" illness was immediately relieved, and the sense of control over her body returned. This should be taken for granted, and she suddenly cherished it.

Lin Shouxi and Mu Shijing quietly left the crowd.

They seem to be transparent.

No one felt any difference.

The gap vacated by the two was quickly filled by the people behind.

Mu Shijing looked back, his eyes flicked over the crowd and the big Buddha cart, and then he saw the temple at the end of Changshan Street in Xijing City. The temple has a sharp shape and is hung with blood-red lanterns, just like a painted bone tower.

The crowd stopped in the square in front of the temple.

They all knelt down and chanted scriptures, as if they were calling for a certain existence hidden in the darkness.

"Are they worshiping Buddha?" Mu Shijing whispered.

It is not so much worshiping Buddha as it is a pilgrimage.

"I didn't expect there to be so many moths during this festival. Misfortunes never come singly."

Not to mention that Mu Shijing was cheated out of his purse that day, and he also encountered such a supernatural thing while dancing a dance, it's really frustrating.

Lin Shouxi didn't say a word, he and the girl lurked upstairs on one side, piercing the long night with sharp eyes, piercing into the black temple full of red lanterns, as if they were stirring something up.

"Is there something strange?" Mu Shijing asked.

"There are people inside." Lin Shouxi replied.

"who?"

But it was not Mu Shijing who asked, the voice of the question came faintly from behind them, like a centipede burrowed into the ear cavity desperately, when he turned his head, two huge human hands had already bent their fingers and closed towards them.

……

Mu Shijing could keenly perceive the breath of living things, but she didn't notice this thing until it was behind her.

This is not a living thing at all, but a puppet!
The girl reacted quickly, and the momentary shock was wiped off her Taoist heart like a splash of water, and the death certificate was unsheathed, and the grid stood in front of her, blocking the attack of the puppet's big hand.But the puppet was so powerful that it pressed her back a long way, almost smashing the railing behind it.

Mu Shijing looked up.

Ripples appeared on the surface of the dark water, and a black-robed human face emerged from it. His whole body was wrapped in the robe, except for a pale hand protruding from the skirt, with a ring on each finger.

"On the night when the ghost king woke up, which palace girl are you, dare to trespass on this place?" The black-robed man moved his fingers, manipulating the puppet's hand to wrestle with Mu Shijing.

Mu Shijing struggled to support.

She knew that the person in front of her was a puppeteer and a master.

Which hall... Could it be that this puppeteer is not a casual cultivator in the countryside, but belongs to a certain organization?

"Which hall are you from?" Mu Shijing asked back.

"Ming Palace." The man didn't hide anything, he said: "Tonight is the most important night in Qianoulou. We are bound to win the Ghost Buddha King in Xijing City. If you run out of fun, go back as soon as possible. I won't let you go." Pursue."

Ghost Buddha King of Xijing City...

Mu Shijing knew that Xijing City worshiped ghosts, and it was said that if this ancient city hadn't been protected by a big ghost, it would have been submerged in the yellow sand long ago.Then, what is the Thousand Puppet Tower...

No, this is not the point now!
The mysterious puppeteer doesn't seem to regard her as an enemy, what's going on?

Soon, Mu Shijing glanced at Lin Shouxi and understood everything.

I saw Lin Shouxi standing stiffly, with his heels raised, as if a ghost was dragging him from behind, his face was pale, his expression was dull, and he didn't look like a human being.

Seeing Mu Shijing cast his gaze away, Lin Shouxi also turned his head slowly, his eyes and body movements were stiff.

Mu Shijing immediately understood.

At this moment, what Lin Shouxi is playing is a puppet.

Mu Shijing imitated the puppeteer, raised his finger, and jumped nimbly, as if teasing the invisible silk thread in the air.

Lin Shouxi followed her movements, and quickly rushed towards the mysterious man.

"act recklessly."

Seeing that this junior dared to make a move, the man in black wiped away all his sympathy. He wanted to cut off the branches outside this section, and then rush to the Ghost Buddha Temple to join the other three hall masters. Puppeteer, each doll is more delicate and beautiful than the other, but it's a pity that they are all put on display."

The black-robed man's fingers bloomed like flowers.

The puppet with two huge palms raised its head, its red eyes fixed on Lin Shouxi, and its palms closed like a Buddha, pinching Lin Shouxi tightly.

But Lin Shouxi, like a razor, slipped out of the puppet's palms, cut a deep scar along the way, cut across the puppet's arm all the way, jumped high on its broad shoulders, Lei Jian stabbed at the man in black.

The man in black was also shocked.

Why does this puppet look better than a puppeteer?
Could it be that this puppeteer is pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger?

The man in black looked at the puppeteer who didn't look like a fairyland, and saw the girl covered in black veil standing still like a deep pool, her right hand was behind her back, and her left hand was beating dazzledly.This move was extremely provocative in the eyes of the puppeteer.

The girl seemed to be saying, I can give you one hand when I fuck the puppet.

The black-robed man did not underestimate the enemy. He stretched out all ten fingers and manipulated the puppet to let him attack Lin Shouxi. This puppet was indeed extremely powerful. Even if Lin Shouxi in the Immortal Realm was physically strong, he couldn't break through its defense for a while. The arms that grew out of its abdomen were restrained.

Mu Shijing knew that the battle could not be delayed, if it continued, even if it was overshadowed by the vigorous sound of beating gongs and drums, the people in Qianqilou would notice it sooner or later.

"Quickly use your unique move!" Mu Shijing shouted.

She didn't know what Lin Shouxi's trick was.

But since Mu Shijing gave the order, Lin Shouxi had to develop some tricks anyway.

Lin Shouxi opened his left hand.

His left hand held the magic pill from beginning to end.

He stared at Shen Dan, and his pupils seemed to be filled with silver light.

The puppeteer didn't know what this elixir was and why he was holding it in his hand, but his Dao Xin gave him a dangerous warning and signaled him to flee.

It's too late.

Lin Shouxi squeezed the magic pill tightly again, and then swung out his left fist, which was plain and unpretentious.

boom--

The terrifying puppet made with painstaking efforts was broken into pieces like this. Among the fragments, Lin Shouxi's blade-like figure cut through the fragments, cutting off the complicated threads all the way, and slashed towards the puppeteer's neck.

Puppeteers put a lot of effort into puppets on their path of cultivation, so their realms are all inflated.

Lin Shouxi punched him again.

The puppet master bit the bullet and took it, and the bones of the entire arm were shattered.

"What kind of boxing is this?" The puppeteer didn't understand.

In severe pain, Lin Shouxi brushed past his neck, and he gave the answer: "Pill boxing."

This is his first name.

"Danquan... No, it's not right!" The puppeteer turned pale with shock, "How can a puppet talk?"

"Only the dead can't speak." Lin Shouxi replied.

The puppeteer seemed to understand something.

The belated edge sliced ​​through his neck.

The puppeteer died, and the puppet collapsed to the ground. Lin Shouxi vigorously turned over the body of the man in black, took out the token of the Ming Palace and five finger pullers, and threw them to Mu Shijing one by one.

Mu Shijing put on the token and put on the finger ring.

"Let's go." Lin Shouxi said, "Go to the Ghost Buddha Temple."

"Hush—" Mu Shijing smiled, and said, "Don't talk about the puppet."

……

"I didn't expect the master of Ming Palace to be a woman."

When Mu Shijing walked into the Ghost Buddha Temple, the other three hall masters of Qianqi Hall had already arrived.

The other three halls are Thunder Hall, Demon Hall, and Bone Hall.

The puppet masters of the third palace, two men and one woman, were all wearing black robes, it was hard to see clearly, there was nothing around them, and the refined puppets were hidden somewhere.

It can be seen that although they both belong to the Palace of Thousand Idols, they obviously have no connection with each other. These palace masters only gathered together when carrying out important tasks tonight.

No matter how mysterious the organization is, it can only be regarded as a rural demon cultivator. Once it is really exposed, it will be crushed to death by Shenshan with thunder.

Mu Shijing was no longer afraid. She crossed the threshold to stop the ghosts and walked into the Ghost Buddha Temple. Instead, she was attracted by the 24 gods carved in this ancient temple. Each of these gods was three people tall, and some had kind eyes. Soft as the sky of great merit and virtue, and some with ferocious faces like the Rakshasa sky, the great Buddhas of the heavens sit around the hall, and the immortal in the center is a woman, known as the Taoist Immortal of Jingtian Palace.

She has gentle eyebrows and embraces a bodhi branch. It is said that she is the snow goddess who lives at the end of the Xijing River on the Wujie Mountain, and is the master of the mother river.

"Aren't you a woman too?"

Mu Shijing looked coldly at the Hall Master of Leidian who was also a woman.

The master of Leidian giggled non-stop.

"There seems to be a change in the east just now, what happened?" asked the Bone Hall Master, his voice was serious, and he sounded like a middle-aged man.

"I killed a little trash fish who tried to destroy the ghost king's recovery." Mu Shijing said flatly.

"This operation is so secret, has the news leaked out?" The voice of the Lord of the Demon Hall was childish, sounding like a child.

"There is no impenetrable wall in this world. The action has already begun, and it is only a matter of time before it is leaked." The Lord of Thunder and Lightning stopped laughing, and she said: "Next, you need to be quicker in your hands and feet. Wait for Shenshan to notice it. It's not good."

The other three nodded together.

The big Buddha cart leading the crowd stopped in front of the Ghost Buddha Temple.

Mu Shijing and the other three hall masters stood in the shadow of the Buddhist hall and looked down.

The black crowd knelt down towards them, chanting scriptures like a mountain roar and a tsunami, and they were calling for their ghost king.

It happened suddenly.

But Mu Shijing quickly understood the outline of the matter during the conversation with them:

The Hall of Thousand Idols is an evil temple in the desert of western Xinjiang. It is led by a leader who claims to be Master Guangtian. Master Guangtian is making a giant puppet that has never been seen before. The terrifying power of the gods, and tonight, the four masters of the Hall of Thousand Puppets came out together for the important part of making a puppet-injecting the soul.

A truly powerful puppet also needs the power of the soul to drive it, so they chose Xijing City.

Xijing City is a city guarded by great ghosts, and they came here to hunt down the guardian ghost of this city, and take this guarding ghost to the Palace of Thousand Puppets as a material for making puppets.

During the annual Ghost Festival, the city guard ghosts will manifest themselves in the calling of people.

The moment when the city guard ghost manifests his sanctity is the time for the Thousand Martial Palace to make a move.

Mu Shijing looked at the hypnotized crowd, worried.

"What's in your package?" the Lord of the Demon Palace asked in a childish voice.

pack?

Mu Shijing looked at the package tied at his waist.

She bought too many things today, and the storage ring she brought couldn't fit, so she made a small package and tied it around her waist. This package came loose during the battle just now, revealing a section of fluffy tail.

Mu Shijing didn't panic at all.

She pulled out the tail calmly, pinched the round metal head, and leaned the long furry tail between her arms, "This is my whisk."

The Lord of the Demon Palace didn't ask any more questions.

The Master of Lei Dian was well-informed, just smiled, and didn't point it out. She looked at the beautiful male doll with a half-hidden face next to the girl, and knew that it was an accessory prepared by Master Ming Dian for the doll, and she couldn't help but feel funny in her heart.

The little episode passed quickly.

Lin Shouxi clenched his left fist tightly, walked like floating, without any vitality in his body, and did not arouse the suspicion of the other three puppet masters at all.

Mu Shijing didn't know how Lin Shouxi did it, but she guessed that it had something to do with that magic pill. She vaguely felt that Lin Shouxi was playing some kind of unknown game with that magic pill these days.

Sure enough, amidst the shouts of the people, the great ghost appeared.

The big ghost is wearing armor and has a blurry face.

It turned out that this was the general who had fought against the sandworms for the defense of the city until he died of exhaustion. After his death, his soul lingered and he still guarded the city and was deeply loved by the people.

After the big ghost manifested as in previous years, he also noticed something was wrong.

He looked at the hypnotized crowd and looked in the direction of the Ghost Buddha Temple, King Kong glared.

The Palace of Thousand Puppets has long been prepared.

They have all practiced a special method of subduing and killing, which is a skill that Master Guangtian has painstakingly studied, and they have an innate distaste for ghosts.

Sure enough, three golden lights shot towards the sky one after another, like iron chains locking the ghost half trapped in the void.

It was Mu Shijing's turn.

Mu Shijing remained indifferent.

"Master Ming, what are you doing? Why don't you seal?" The Master of Bone Palace noticed something strange and asked.

Mu Shijing glanced coldly at the Lord of the Bone Palace, and without saying a word, he drew his sword and slashed at him.

Everyone was more or less surprised by the surprise attack by the master of the Ming Palace, but after all, they had experienced many battles, and quickly regained their senses, and Qi Qi attacked Mu Shijing.

Fancy and deadly spells were drawing a meteor-like trajectory across the sky, attacking the girl in the black skirt.

Lin Shouxi stood in front of her, using the Immortal Dao Fruit as a shield, forcibly blocked this round of fierce attacks.

After a round of offensive.

Except for the demon hall master, the other two hall masters sacrificed their own puppets.

The owner of the Bone Hall is not as good as his name suggests, what he refined is not a puppet, but a three-headed puppet sandworm!
The Lord of Leidian is worthy of her name.

She pulled out her large puppet from the square inch ruler. The puppet looked like a big cow standing on two feet. Its body was covered with corpses, and its back was a thunderous spine.Without a heart or a brain, it relies entirely on this lightning backbone to control its huge body.

The two puppet masters attacked at the same time, with a forceful momentum.

In front of the Ghost Buddha Temple, in the blink of an eye, it has become a mess.

Although Lin Shouxi had a lot of foreign objects to borrow his strength from, his own realm was only at the beginning of the immortal realm, and he quickly fell behind under the siege of the two puppeteer masters.

"Who the hell are you? Where is the real Palace Master Ming? Where did he go?" Palace Master Lei asked.

"Do you want to see him?" Mu Shijing asked coldly.

As soon as these words came out, Palace Master Lei immediately understood that Palace Master Ming had been killed.

What happened tonight was the grand plan of the Palace of Thousand Idols, and Palace Master Lei couldn't help being furious after being destroyed in this way.The four hall masters are all students brought up by Master Guangtian. They know that Master's time is numbered. If there is any further delay, Master's grand plan and great cause may be hopeless in this life!

Palace Master Lei vented all his anger on Lin Shouxi.

She manipulated the big puppet with her veiny hands, and launched a bombardment-like attack on Lin Shouxi. The wind of her fists caused the ground to shake, as if she wanted to smash this beautiful puppet into pieces.

Relying on his strong physique, Lin Shouxi forcibly withstood the attack of the Leidian puppet, and then used the unique Danquan and the three sandworms to hit the sandworm head-on, smashing the three heads of the sandworm. It seemed to be the limit, after the beating, his left arm was bleeding profusely, even if Xubai Dinghuo frantically refined medicine, the wound could not heal for a while.

Palace Master Lei took advantage of the victory to pursue, and asked the puppet to press Lin Shouxi to the ground with its big hands like pliers.

"I'll kill you with my own hands." Palace Master Lei pulled out his saber from his black robe, and wanted to behead Lin Shouxi, who had been imprisoned, with his own hands.

She is about to regret this decision for the rest of her life.

puff--

When Lei Dian presided over the knife jumped down, something protruded from her chest.

She identified it and was sure that it was a bone spur.

The bone spur pierced her back to her chest, piercing her through the air!
Palace Master Lei looked back, and it was none other than her puppet that stabbed her!
"Why..." Palace Master Lei couldn't figure it out even if he died.

"I've practiced puppets all my life and been killed by puppets, is that a worthy death?" Lin Shouxi asked.

Palace Master Lei's pupils shrank suddenly, and she asked the same question as Palace Master Ming:

"How can a puppet talk?"

Lin Shouxi controlled the puppet by relying on the thunder and lightning law of the sword scripture, let it backstab, and killed his master. This scene fell into the eyes of the master of the demon hall who had been watching the fire from the other side, but it had a special meaning.

He immediately reminded the Lord of the Bone Palace: "He is the puppeteer, that girl is a puppet, and he was the one who manipulated that girl to speak before! Don't be fooled!"

The Lord of the Bone Palace woke up startled.

"I see……"

No wonder this boy was able to seize Master Lei's right to manipulate puppetry. It turns out that he himself is a powerful puppet master and has mastered unknown secret techniques!
"So it is."

Mu Shijing also thought to himself, thinking that the master of Yaodian's guess is reasonable.

While she was thinking, the three sandworms had already rolled towards the injured Lin Shouxi. She wanted to help, but a sudden change occurred, and something shot towards her from the sandworm's abdomen.

Mu Shijing took a closer look.

That was also a sandworm.

It is far less thick than the main body, just like an ordinary boa constrictor, but even more sinister and sinister!

Mu Shijing fought with the sandworm, but was forced to retreat by the poisonous mist sprayed by the sandworm, and it was difficult to win for a while.

At a critical moment, Mu Shijing suddenly remembered something.

She took out the golden dharma ring she bought during the day.

This dharma ring around the neck can turn people into obedient slaves.

She threw the ring out.

The sandworm is shaped like an earthworm, and its neck is about the size of its head. This dharma ring can come in handy!

Sure enough, after Sandworm was trapped by the magic ring, he no longer attacked Mu Shijing, but turned his back under her command and attacked the bone palace master!
"I knew that I bought it during the day because I had a long-term plan." Mu Shijing was more confident.

On the other side, the three sandworms were also smashed.

It was not Lin Shouxi who smashed it to death, but the city guard who had broken free from his bondage.

Although the city guard ghost killed the three sandworms, the big ghost was enraged and his sanity was not clear. After killing the sandworms, he actually attacked Lin Shouxi. Lin Shouxi was also calm. The word 'quiet' hit the city guard's forehead, making him sober.

The battle situation was unpredictable, and in the blink of an eye, both Lin Shouxi and Mu Shijing had the upper hand.

The Lord of the Demon Palace seemed to be alone and helpless.

Mu Shijing was more cautious and suspicious.

She didn't understand why the master of the demon hall didn't sacrifice his puppet for so long, and where was his puppet hidden?
"Even though we couldn't catch the ghosts tonight, we also enjoyed a dance of thousands of people. I like this kind of dance very much. Let them all die in the dance." The demon palace master smiled.

Mu Shijing realized something and looked towards the crowd.

The ghost Buddha on the big Buddha car stood up!
In the light of the fire, the description of the ghost Buddha is clear.

What kind of sculpture is this? It is clearly a body Buddha in a cassock of human skin!This is exactly the puppet controlled by the master of the demon hall!
The body of the Buddha fell like a mountain, crushing towards the crowd.

"not good……"

Lin Shouxi was fighting with the city guard ghost, and Mu Shijing was far away from the crowd, so it was difficult for him to lend a helping hand.

Suddenly.

night sky.

A group of cranes flew over.

The group of cranes transformed into thousands of clear shadows.

The body of the flesh Buddha falling towards the crowd was abruptly stopped by a celestial sword coming from the sky.

Snow Crane Sword!
Chu Yingchan stood on tiptoe and stood on the snow crane sword. The fairy's eyes were half closed, and her hands pinched her way.
at the same time.

Behind Chu Yingchan.

Several golden flying swords struck, stabbing the demon palace master with precision.

The body of the demon palace master was stabbed into a hornet's nest in an instant.

But soon.

The slain body of the demon hall master turned into a piece of wood.

Li Daitao's dead body substitute technique!

The real master of the demon hall has already fled.

The sword comes first, and the people come later.

The one who brought out the sword was a fairy teacher in red.

The female immortal master came to the Ghost Buddha Temple, looked around, finally looked at Mu Shijing, and asked solemnly: "What happened here?"

At the side of the immortal master, there were two people following him.

They are Xu Xiang and Ying Yao.

Tai Ah Sword School.
