The story of Princess Xiatang's counterattack

Chapter 556 On a whim

Chapter 556 On a whim

There are many reasons why the formation is difficult to understand and daunting, but the most direct one is its unpredictability.

Those who set up the formation must be familiar with the key points of each formation method. In addition, the items to be placed in the formation are also particular.

The same formation, if it is made of lifeless paper, stones and other objects, is completely different from the formation made by living plants.

Now, what Xia Houxiang and Rongli are experiencing is a set of gossip formations that have offensive effects and have hallucinogenic effects.

Xia Houxiang has already adjusted to the attacking state, because today's formation has suddenly changed.

When they came yesterday, apart from the pressure set by the formation, Li'er was shocked.

But today's formation has completely changed.

Xia Houxiang felt that the person who set up the formation must be a master, and it is very likely that he is hidden in the fifth floor.

Yesterday's trip must have alarmed the people who set up the formation, otherwise the formation would not change. Now that their husband and wife have arrived, they must go to find out.

Xia Houxiang tilted his head slightly, and there was a willow leaf beside his right foot.

The slender and long willow leaves seemed to be stuck to someone's clothes, were brought in by accident, and then fell off inadvertently, lying quietly in the corner.

Xia Houxiang bent down, did not pick up the willow branch, but changed its position casually.

A faint muffled hum came from the fifth floor, Xia Houxiang and Rongli are both masters with amazing hearing, if there is a sound that seems to be absent, it will not escape their ears.

Rongli pointed his toes and looked up, it seemed that there was someone up there!

Xia Houxiang didn't stand up straight, but still bent over. There was a small stone on the left side of the upper floor. He picked it up and placed it on the willow branch. There were hurried footsteps on the fifth floor, and then "Gululu ' There was a sound, as if something was knocked off and rolled to the ground.

Rong Li smacked her mouth, she felt that the people hiding above might be in bad luck.

Xia Houxiang straightened up, and tore off a two-finger-wide strip of thin cloth from the clothes he was wearing. He took Rongli's hand and went up two steps. Now the two of them were standing on the fifth floor, and what came into view was An open space with nothing in it.

However, the previous shocks did indeed happen.

It can be seen from this that the formation upstairs has not been completely broken.

Rongli turned his head to look at Xia Houxiang, he was still holding the cloth strip in his hand, what should he do next?
Xia Houxiang pulled Rongli to the wall, let go of her hand, made a silent gesture, Rongli nodded, indicating that he knew.

Then Xia Houxiang walked to the center, folded the cloth strips in his hands twice, bent down and placed them in the center of the fifth floor.

As soon as the cloth was put down, Rongli saw that the air around Xia Houxiang's body was rippled like water ripples, and a fist appeared behind him out of thin air.

Rong Li's eyes widened, and he was about to tell him to be careful.

However, Xia Houxiang moved faster than her, turned around instantly to catch the fist that appeared out of thin air, twisted it hard, and the water-like air ripples shook more and more violently.

With a loud shout, the owner of the fist revealed his original appearance, and then, the empty fifth floor suddenly revealed its original appearance.

Rong Li didn't look at the things that appeared out of nowhere, but stared closely at the two of them who had fought several rounds in succession as soon as they came.

At this time, Xia Houxiang was fighting with an old man with gray hair and wearing navy blue clothes. He was energetic and he made extremely fast moves. He made several moves in just a few breaths.

Xia Houxiang's expression didn't change much, he was able to deal with it with ease. Although this old man made moves extremely fast, it can be seen that his skills are not deep, and he belongs to a half-way monk.

After playing this kind of moves, if you fight against ordinary masters, you may be able to occupy the top in a short period of time, so as to subdue your opponent.

But Xia Houxiang is a practitioner who has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and there are few opponents in the world. As a result, this old man is destined to not be able to take advantage of it.

In less than a cup of tea, the winner and loser were already divided, and Xia Houxiang's hand had already reached the old man's face.

The old man smiled wryly as if appointed, and sighed in his heart: My revenge is not avenged, and my life is over!

Close your eyes and wait for death to come.

He could see that the younger generation who fought with him had profound skills, and he was no match for him.

The other party was able to break through the formation, and he thought that those people knew of his existence and sent someone to kill him.

His life should have been accounted for five years ago. If he hadn't been blessed by the heavens and escaped unharmed, he would have disappeared into this world as a handful of loess by now.

There is only one good luck, now, I am afraid that I am really going to die...

It's a pity that he died at the hands of his enemies, and his desire for revenge was completely thwarted.

The old man closed his eyes for a long time, did not move, his heart was turning a thousand times, quietly waiting for death to come.

However, the expected pain did not happen.

The old man frowned suddenly, then slowly opened his eyes, he saw that the young man who was fighting with him before had put away his moves and was looking at him quietly.

"You...why...don't...kill me."

Perhaps it was because he hadn't communicated with anyone for a long time. When the old man spoke, his voice was obscure and unpleasant, and he spoke extremely slowly.

"Elder." Xia Houxiang cupped his fists and bowed, respecting him very much.

The old man was not surprised why the other party knew his identity, he sneered, "Don't... say too much, if you want to kill... if you want to... cut it, listen to your respect..."

"The elder has misunderstood something. Wait, I am not here to take the elder's life." Xia Houxiang still respected his words. It seems that he was right. This old man should be the one in the painting who was injured by the conspiracy of the five elders. Another elder.

"What?" The old man was puzzled this time. He thought they were going to take his life, but now he actually told him?

"Then why do you... break the formation?"

"We were just acting on a whim," Xia Houxiang didn't know how to explain, Rongli, who was still standing in the corner before, hurried over to save the scene, she said with a smile, "I didn't expect to break you out, I'm so sorry."

He knew that the two of them entered the library at night the day before, and he set up the array, but there is one thing, if the person who set up the array stays in the array, he can only see the outside world, but not hear the sound .

Yesterday, when he heard the noise, he watched the movements of the two of them on the fifth floor. From the fourth floor to the fifth floor, the shorter boy seemed to be very uncomfortable, and was helped down the stairs by the taller boy.

The old man was quite confident in his formation. He did not set up the formation to hurt others, but to hide himself. If the people who came up felt uncomfortable, they would not stay for long.

In addition, the fifth floor has been empty for a long time, and the disciples in Yuehua Temple know that there are four floors of books, so they will not go up.

Unexpectedly, these two came up directly yesterday, and it was still at night, which aroused the suspicion of the old man, and thus replaced the guard formation with the attack formation.

The old man didn't sleep last night. He thought that those people might have discovered his existence, so they asked someone to silence him.

Today, after he broke the formation by himself and fought with the taller young man, the old man felt that he might not survive tonight.

As a result, he was now given the phrase 'on a whim', which instantly fooled him.
