Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1514 Golden Crow
  Shi Lan and Tianming followed closely behind, rushing towards the door.

The courtyard was not big, and the three of them quickly passed through a few steps and rushed into the corridor that had disappeared from their sight for a long time.

However, after the three people entered, they discovered that the situation was still not right.

There is only a short section of this passage, and there are identical sliding doors at both ends.

Tianming's teeth are itching when he sees this door now, and he doesn't bother to think too much, so he just goes over and opens the door:

"They were heading this way just now, let's continue chasing them!"

Shao Yu and Shi Lan from behind looked at each other, their eyes full of helplessness.

If nothing else happens, they may not be able to chase anyone.

Sure enough, after opening the door, there was a room and a new door.

Tianming kept walking, quickly walked over and opened the door again. As expected, what they saw was another cherry blossom garden.

As for the group just now, they have long since disappeared.

"Ah..." When Tianming saw this, he sighed in frustration, but he had actually expected it, and he probably wouldn't gain anything.

"What to do next?" Tianming turned to look at his friends who were coming over.

Shao Yu shrugged, "What can I do? Just take it one step at a time."

"Choose a direction and keep walking and see if you can come across any clues."

Tianming sighed again when he heard this, but he could only accept the reality helplessly.

The three of them continued walking along the corridor. At this time, it was not only night in the courtyard, but also a light drizzle.

Shaoyu was really curious and reached out to catch a few drops of rainwater. When he found that it was completely real, he was surprised and said:

"It's actually raining... I thought it was an illusion!"

"But this..."

"Illusions can deceive all our senses, and it is difficult to distinguish them by ourselves." Shi Lan explained on the side, "No matter how real it seems, it may not be true."

"But every change in the environment occurs after we leave the closed room. The two should be inseparable."

"The changing courtyard, the sealed room... what is the specific connection between them?" Shao Yu crossed his arms and asked in confusion.

Shi Lan pondered for a moment and came up with a guess, "Maybe it's not the courtyard that has changed, but the airtight room?"

While the two were discussing, Tianming's scream rang out again, "Look, look, it's out again!"

The two of them looked over and saw that at the end of the corridor, the girl who was surrounded by many boys and girls just now was standing there, wearing a blue and white floating skirt and a tulle on her face, holding a lantern and looking at them quietly. .

Shaoyu and the other three looked at each other in confusion, but Tianming asked first:
  "It seems like she is waiting for us. What should we do? Do you want to go there?"

After thinking about it for a moment, Shaoyu replied, "How about... go over and see what she wants to do?"

Shi Lan nodded and approved the proposal without much hesitation.

Although in such a dangerous place, it was dangerous to have rash contact with someone who didn't look like a friendly force, but they had no choice now.

People are trapped and dead in the maze. Without additional help, they are afraid that they will not be able to get out in a short time.

If they don't want to be so hungry that they start chewing on the cherry blossom trees in three days, it's better to take a risk.

After finalizing their attention, the three people immediately walked towards the girl's position.

As soon as they moved, the girl also started to move and turned to the side.

Miraculously, the corridor that originally had only one way to live or die actually had a fork in the road again.

When the three of them saw this, they gritted their teeth and ran straight after the girl. Turning the corner, the three of them were surprised to find that they were back in a large corridor full of forked roads.

The girl was walking in front, obviously walking slowly, but the distance between her and them was growing rapidly.

Seeing this, Shao Yu and others could only speed up to catch up and walk through the corridor.

After a while, as the three people opened the sliding door again, they returned to the courtyard area, but the rain in the courtyard had stopped.

The girl was still moving forward, and the three of them had no choice but to catch up. Finally, they came to a foggy courtyard, and the girl disappeared.

"Huh...huh..." Tian Ming, who was running all the way, was panting heavily from exhaustion. He held his knees up and couldn't straighten his waist, and said intermittently, "People... people are gone!"

"What should I do? Keep...huh...keep going?"

"The girl seems to have lured us here on purpose..." Shao Yu's breathing was also a little heavy, and he panted and analyzed, "What is her purpose?"

Shi Lan was the most relaxed one among the three. She frowned and said, "She seems to be guiding us back to the original path... She doesn't seem to have any malicious intent, she should be helping us."

"Uh... but this place doesn't look like the place at the beginning, does it?" Tian Ming said with drooped eyebrows and pointing at the mist-filled surroundings.

"Let's go further and take a look." Shi Lan replied as she looked at the sliding door at the end of the corridor.

………………

Mirage, in the Toad Palace.

A girl in a blue and white dress floated above the bed, and the faint blue energy filled her body, holding her up out of thin air.

Beside her, the Moon God was sitting in front of a large oval brass mirror, holding a seal with his hand. The projection in the mirror was not the Moon God, but a girl lying down.

The girl in the mirror seems to be looking into the mirror, but her reflection in the mirror is herself.

Illusion and reality are intertwined at both ends of the mirror. I don’t know who is real and who is illusion.

This is the highest level of Onmyoji—soul-changing method.

This almost represents the highest achievement of illusion, and has even broken through the scope of illusion, so that reality and illusion will become distorted and elusive in the soul-changing method.

Just when the moon god used the soul-changing method to control the girl's mind and continued to try to pry into the secrets she needed, something unexpected happened.

There was a fleeting look of astonishment on Luna's face, and the face of the girl in the mirror also changed, full of surprise and confusion - she seemed to suddenly realize that the person in the mirror was not herself.

The next second, the picture in the mirror quietly turned into Luna himself and returned to normal.

Moon God first turned his head to look at the girl, frowned slightly and then dissipated his energy, letting her slowly fall on the bed, as if she had fallen asleep.

At the same time, he waved his hand and used his true energy to push the mirror aside.

What happened just now was because the girl temporarily broke free from the control of her soul-changing technique.

But the problem is that normally this child cannot escape from her control by his own strength - the highest level of Onmyoji. If it can be fought so easily, it would be too cheap.

So Luna judged that someone else had interfered with her just now.

So...who is it?

This issue is important, but Luna can't think about it for the time being. She has a more urgent problem now.

At the same time, outside the gate of Toad Palace, Xinghun clasped his hands behind his back, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and came towards the Moon God aggressively.

Just a few breaths after the Moon God stopped his hand, the door of the Toad Palace suddenly opened, and Xinghun walked in slowly.

"Master Xinghun, why are you in such a hurry?" Moon God turned around, looked at Xinghun and asked in a deep voice.

Xinghun didn't answer in a hurry. He glanced at the girl on the bed first, and the smile on his lips suddenly became even bigger.
