Chapter 203 202: The Art of Killing

Lou Jinchen frowned.

He recalled the day he had felt the faint killing intent, but he couldn't find the enemy.

Hearing this merman's words again, the chill in his heart became even heavier, and suddenly a kind of terror spread over his heart.

This is a feeling, as if someone heard a terrible thing, felt touched, and felt a sense of terror.

At this moment, Lou Jinchen also had this feeling, and the terror was pervading like a fog.

When Lou Jinchen was meditating, the merman slowly slid into the water, her lower body was still a fish body, turned over, the fish tail stood up, and submerged in the water again.

Shang Gui'an was standing there holding a three-color lantern, he heard it too, and then saw the merman leave, but the senior brother squatted there for a long time.

Tonight, since the mansion left, he felt that something was wrong with his senior brother.

"Brother!"

Lou Jinchen stood up and said, "It seems that someone is really going to kill me."

Shang Guian was very nervous, the flame in the lantern in his hand was beating, representing his mood.

"Don't be nervous. There are so many people who want to kill your senior brother, but your senior brother is still alive and well. It's not that easy to kill your senior brother."

Lou Jinchen turned around and walked towards the residence. When he came to the door, he stopped suddenly, and then walked towards the next door. He felt that the door next door had been opened and someone had entered.

When he came to the door next door, there were no traces on the ground or on the door, but he was sure that someone must have gone in.

However, he didn't open the door, nor did he look to see who it was. He turned around and left, and then returned to his own residence. He suddenly drew his sword and wrote on the wall posts on both sides of the door.

"Yesterday I felt a chill, but tonight I heard murderous intent!"

The sword light flickered, and two lines of vertical characters appeared on the doorpost. The font was thin and hard, with iron hooks and silver hooks, and a cold and solemn air rushed over.

Only then did Shang Gui'an realize that the senior brother had already felt the murderous intent yesterday, no wonder the senior brother seemed to be in deep thought today.

Is this the brother's arena?
Unseen murderous intentions come at any time, and the inexplicable hostility makes people hard to guard against.

This time he followed his senior brother to walk the rivers and lakes, and he really felt the treacherous waves on the rivers and lakes. He also followed his senior brother all the time, feeling that his senior brother didn't do anything, and unexpectedly provoked a mysterious enemy.

"Squeak!"

The door opened, and the two entered the house.

In the room on the other side, there was a man who looked like an outsider, leaning tightly against the door, he let out a long sigh of relief, when Lou Jinchen came to his door just now, he was already frightened jumped out.

One day was enough for him to find out who lived in that house.

Lou Jinchen, this man surrounded by rumors.

It is said that he is extremely talented, so he can kill the four realms in a short period of time.

Some people said that he was cruel and ruthless, even in the capital, he never softened his hands, which made many people feel terrible.

Some people say that he is arrogant and willful, which makes many people feel uneasy and dare not provoke him.

That's why he felt scared. Thinking that Lou Jinchen lived next door, he felt that he needed to change to another house to raise ghosts.

But that was something to come later, now that he was in this room, he didn't dare to walk a little bit heavier.

……

When Lou Jinchen returned to the house, Shang Guian hesitated to speak.

Lou Jinchen said with a smile, "Why, just say what you have to say."

"Brother, is someone really going to kill you?" Shang Guian said.

"In the world of life and death, if others don't want to kill, the world will also want to kill." Lou Jinchen smiled.

As he spoke, he walked towards the attic, and climbing up to look at the stars was also a kind of auxiliary practice for peace of mind.

Sitting down on the chair, Shang Guian leaned against the railing beside him and said, "Senior brother, do you know who is going to kill you?"

"I don't know." Lou Jinchen said: "A person's awareness can detect dangerous footsteps approaching, but he may not be able to know where they come from. Others will hide and confuse the audience. What we see and hear , may be a trap deliberately set by others."

"Then what should we do?" Shang Guian asked worriedly.

The world of cultivators is so cold and vicious.

"Wait." Lou Jinchen said.

"When will it be?" Shang Guian said.

"Wait until the other party shows signs." Lou Jinchen said.

"What if you haven't waited until the other party shows signs?" Shang Guian asked again.

"Then die." Lou Jinchen said quickly.

Shang Guian was stunned, he didn't expect Lou Jinchen to answer like this.

"Is there no other way?" Shang Guian said.

"Combating beyond visual range, it's difficult to make up for the skill in the battle of the next generation." Lou Jinchen's words made Shang Gui'an a little dazed.

He didn't quite understand it, but after savoring it carefully in his heart, he still found it strange.

"Don't understand?" Lou Jinchen asked.

Shang Guian shook his head.

"It's right if you don't understand." Lou Jinchen said: "What is beyond visual distance? It means that the other party can see you, but you can't see the other party. Therefore, when he casts spells on you, you can only bear it, and you can only go away." If you break the law, you will always be passive, because you don't know where the enemy is, you can't fight back, and if you can't fight back, you will never be able to relieve the danger."

With this explanation, Shang Gui'an somewhat understood.

He immediately had a sense of the picture.

"Of course, this kind of trans-horizon is not just the distance in space, but the invisibility. Perhaps, someone is hiding next to us and casting spells on us, but we don't know it at all."

The 'Yuanwai' next door froze and didn't dare to move. He wanted to say, I didn't intend to cast a spell on you at all.

Lou Jinchen said again: "An ant on the ground, you trampled him to death, for it, this attack is extremely poor, it can't see your attack, and it can't bear it."

"Then is this the person who cast spells on the senior brother? Substitute? He's beyond the line of sight?" Shang Gui'an didn't know how to express it, mainly because he felt awkward with these two words.

"No, he does have beyond-the-horizon, but he didn't achieve the difference. However, his over-the-horizon is achieved through magic."

"What kind of spell?" Shang Guian asked.

"I can't say exactly what kind of spell it is, but a spell must be required, so that people can't see it or touch it. Many people will think it is some kind of concealment method when they hear it."

Lou Jinchen said: "Of course, it's true to say that, what is hidden, people can't see, what is hiding, people can't touch."

"In a certain place I don't know, there lives a person I don't know. I can't see or touch this person, but is he reclusive? For me, it can be said to be, even They say they don’t exist, and such a person who doesn’t exist in my consciousness has cast a spell on me, how can I know him?”

"But this person is real in the eyes of his neighbors or family members."

What Lou Jinchen said about Shang Gui'an seemed vaguely understandable.

"Then, how do we know that this person is harming others?" Shang Guian asked.

"Good question, I know, it's a kind of ability, it's awareness, and awareness is actually separate. I can detect danger, but I can't know who is casting spells, but I think one person can hide it from another. , but it’s hard to hide it from everyone.”

"Even if it is possible to hide it from everyone, it must be difficult to hide it from Yin and Yang."

"If he can hide all this, then he can hide it from me forever." Lou Jinchen said.

"Senior brother is well-informed, so there's nothing he can do?" Shang Gui'an asked.

"All I have seen are past spells, and those who cast spells on me must be familiar with all kinds of spells, and then introduce new ones. I have classified spells before, but the truly powerful spells must be a combination of multiple spells. Together."

Speaking of this, he said again: "The spell classification I made before may not be very suitable. You can forget it. Because I think spells cannot be classified. A good spell cannot be classified because it involves many aspects."

"Of course, it may be that my current state is not enough to make a comprehensive classification. However, by looking at the fundamental methods of cultivation of each path, I can already know where to focus."

At this moment, Lou Jinchen suddenly looked at the sky, and in the sky, a bird was flying around there, suddenly made a strange cry, and then fell headlong, and landed in the courtyard where Lou Jinchen was.

Lou Jinchen's sharp eyes saw that the crow's feet were actually tied with envelopes.

Shang Gui'an also saw that when he jumped down, the fire cloud surged under his feet and landed beside the crow.

He didn't take it directly with his hands, but took out a pair of chopsticks, held the crow between them, flew up again, and came to Lou Jinchen's side, Lou Jinchen motioned him to put it on the table.

Lou Jinchen looked at it.

A crow that just died violently.

The crow has a meaning in Lou Jinchen's heart, which is to report funerals and disasters.

It is poisonous.

Lou Jinchen didn't know much about poisons, but the strange smell was extremely pungent.

It is an inferior poison.

Shang Guian fiddled with the letter case on its feet with chopsticks, and took out a small letter paper from it.

He pushed it away with chopsticks, so that the words on it were revealed under the light, and when Shang Guian saw the words clearly, his face changed drastically.

Looking up at the senior brother, the senior brother's face is also dignified.

The reason why his face changed greatly was because the paper said: "Quickly tell Lou Jinchen that there is a ghost from the underworld who wants to kill him."

"Brother!" Shang Guian said worriedly.

How could someone deliver such a letter to them?

This letter was almost another important proof that someone really wanted to kill Lou Jinchen, and the identity of the 'yin spirit' in it gave Shang Gui'an a feeling of bleakness and coldness.

Since when did senior brother provoke the ghosts of the underworld?

"It seems that this is really a complex and grand spell." Lou Jinchen said.

This spell is huge, so you can't see the edge, it's like being trapped in a vast ocean, surrounded by water, and full of malice everywhere, so you can't find the so-called root of the spell.

"Burn it." Lou Jin said.

Shang Guian picked up the crow, and the crow burst into flames instantly, and was thrown down by Shang Guian, falling to the ground.

"Go down."

Lou Jinchen stood up and went downstairs. After seeing that line of writing, he clearly felt the malice, which became clearer.

He knew it was part of the spell.

In other words, reporting to him is actually a step in casting a spell.

Going back to the bed below and meditating in meditation, the bright moon he visualized seemed to be covered with a shadow, as if the moon was covered by clouds and mist.

That dark cloud came from the killing intent I felt, not delusions.

If he really regards it as a delusion, then he will be killed at that time, I am afraid that he will not be alert at all.

And he knew that this murderous intent would eventually turn into strangling himself. This person's spell had already penetrated into his heart, layers of murderous intent superimposed, and finally wounded with one blow, detonating in his body and mind.

He sat cross-legged there, but tonight the surroundings of the house seemed to be extremely lively, and after a while there were bursts of meowing like an old man crying.

It seems to be crying, crying that someone is going to die.

Then there was another weird laugh, listening carefully to the sound made by a mouse.

They also seem to be laughing that someone is going to die.

The next day, Shang Gui'an's complexion was also not very good, and the two went out.

For breakfast, eat millet porridge.

Sitting there, suddenly, they heard a child singing: "Whoever climbs the tower and gets close to the sun dies, he dies in the temple of Duan Shou Mountain, because he is the mountain god; He is a ghoul who is dead but not dead. Those who climb the tower and get close to the sky will die in Jiuquan City, because he has already died there;..."

"The person who ascends the tower and is close to Chen dies, and dies in the capital..."

"The person who ascends the tower and is close to Chen dies, he dies on the top of the snow mountain in the snow field..."

When Shang Guian heard the child singing such a song, his face changed drastically, then he got up and found the child in the alley.

After a while, he came back and told Lou Jinchen, saying: "These children don't know why, they said they could sing suddenly, and they had a dream at the same time last night, and they sang this song repeatedly in the dream."

"Very well, this person seems to have carefully inquired about my deeds..."

He took a deep breath. At this moment, the murderous intent he felt in his heart was rapidly evolving into a fatal intent.

Lou Jinchen understood that this was the second stage of the spell.

The various warnings sent before were just turning this kind of warning into murderous intent, lingering into my body and mind, so that I could no longer break free.

In other words, it is equivalent to locking yourself. After locking, that is the real deadly spell coming to you.

"Death turns death! Very good, I have also learned." Lou Jinchen put down some money, and then got up.

Today is the time for the Fujun to hold the Covenant Conference.

He took Shang Guian towards that address.

That address is the general site of the Jiangzhou Chamber of Commerce, and there is a large venue inside.

Deng Ding was waiting at the door, the closer it was, the more people there were.

After Deng Ding met Lou Jinchen, he went in with him.

Seeing Shang Guian's serious face, Deng Ding asked Shang Guian in a low voice. Shang Guian shook his head. He felt that the more people knew about this spell, the more harm it would do to his brother.

In the venue, there were nameplates on every table, and Lou Jinchen came to his seat and sat down.

Before anyone sat down in the other seats, he was already kneeling there, then took out a stack of paper from the treasure bag, and started cutting people.

Many people in the field were talking in twos and threes, but Lou Jinchen was the paper-cutter sitting here.
