Chapter Ninety-Seven: Phantom Demon
Zhao Changping's people met with Xiao Yu one after another, and when he saw Jiang Xiaowen who was tied up by five flowers, and heard about the phantom demon, Zhao Changping's psychology finally felt better. Jiang Xiaowen, a person who is so kind and innocent, will be bewitched by the phantom demon, and then poison his companions, let alone Gao Yin.
Everyone gathered together, and the next problem they had to face was more troublesome, how to force the phantom demon to appear.
The phantom itself is the best at psychic illusions, and it is not a problem to hide itself, if it is unwilling to expose itself, even if everyone starves to death, they will not find its shadow. Luckily, this phantom demon was not mature, and was even only in its infancy, and its spiritual power might not be strong enough to sustain an illusion for a month or two.
It is no problem for everyone to dig up wild vegetables, roots, and bark to hold on for a month. Of course, attrition tactics are not a good idea, and this time is too long. The best thing to do is to trick it into showing up and then kill it, once and for all.
Xiao Yu looked at the vast white covered forest and said: "To lure the phantom demon to appear, there must be a bait, and this bait must be firm enough to not be easily bewitched by the spiritual power of the phantom demon." ”
Zhao Changping stood up and said, "Let me go." ”
Wang Chao also patted his chest and said: "I'll go too, damn, I don't believe that there is anything in the world that can confuse the fat man." ”
Jin Shi snorted disdainfully, "Come on, you fat man is delicious and lustful, others conjure up a beautiful woman to tempt you, you must have forgotten your last name." ”
Xiao Yu pondered for a moment and said, "Zhao Changping and I will try it first, trying to lure the phantom demon to appear." The others guarded the surroundings, Mr. Han, you take care of Xiaowen. Everyone must remember that one of the abilities of the phantom demon is to copy the memory of the target, so the illusion created is often very real and not easy to distinguish, but no matter what is real, he is fake after all, there will always be flaws, you have to find a way to find and break it. ”
Everyone nodded, Xiao Yu and Zhao Changping glanced at each other, and the two of them split up and entered the nearby woods.
Xiao Yu walked in the cold misty forest, holding a war knife in his right hand, looking around indifferently, the white mist was rolling, but he didn't find anything abnormal. The phantom demon has a high level of intelligence, and it can judge which people have an opportunity to take advantage of, and which people's will is indestructible and cannot be conquered.
There is no doubt that Xiao Yu is the strongest willpower among all people, and the possibility of luring the phantom demon out to deal with Xiao Yu is not high.
Xiao Yu had only taken two steps when his footsteps suddenly stopped.
Suddenly, he heard a low roar in the woods ahead.
The next moment, suddenly a fanged beast rushed out of it, roaring and rushing towards Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu smiled coldly, stretched out his arms, and closed his eyes.
The monstrous fanged beast slammed headlong into him, and the giant pierced through its body. The moment it passed through, the fanged beast immediately disappeared into thin air.
Xiao Yu opened his eyes, his eyes had turned blood-red, and he sneered: "Phantom demon, do you have this ability?" ”
"Roar!"
There was another low roar from the woods, and another roaring monster appeared in front of him, crashing straight into Xiao Yu. This time, Xiao Yu didn't let it crash into his body, but took a sharp step back and slashed sideways at the monster.
The monster roared and fell in half, and then its body blurred, turning into a sharp log that had been cut in half.
Fiction and reality.
The phantom demon's attack means are impossible to prevent.
But unfortunately, Xiao Yu has the eye of insight, although the eye of insight is not strong enough to see through the entire illusion, but it is completely possible to distinguish a single phantom. When the sharp tree, disguised as a monster, was cut off, the woods were calm for a long time.
Presumably, the phantom demon also sensed that the opponent in front of him was very difficult, so he didn't want to waste his strength in vain, but the driver acted.
After about a few minutes, the white mist was rising again in the forest.
One phantom after another appeared inside.
Xiao Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at those phantoms coming out.
The first to come out were two middle-aged couples dressed plainly, who looked three points similar to Xiao Yu between their eyebrows, with a kind smile on their faces, and were slowly walking over.
"Xiao Yu, study hard outside, don't let your father down."
"Mom has cooked you your favorite pork rib soup, hurry up and drink it while it's hot."
"Take care of yourself when you're out and remember to call home often."
Immediately afterwards, more phantoms appeared around Xiao Yu, all of them were relatives and friends, playmates from childhood, and classmates from the past, all with different expressions and lifelike. I can't tell that it's a phantom at all, as if all of them are real, flesh-and-blood living people.
"Brother Xiao Yu, let's go to the field to catch frogs, okay!"
"Hey, you're still not a man, isn't it just Jiang Xiaowen? There is no grass in Tianhe, why hang yourself on a tree, cheer up a little!. ”
“……”
These sounds are like magic, and they always surround your ears.
Xiao Yu's expression did not change from beginning to end, and said coldly: "Boring tricks, my heart, how can you break it?!" He raised his sword and rushed at these people, one by one, and slashed them all!
The other side.
Zhao Changping was sweating profusely in the face of a rushing beast, the long sword released electric light again, concentrated one of them, it instantly turned into charcoal and fell to the ground, even the smell of scorching could be smelled.
Is this really a phantom?
Zhao Changping couldn't believe it, he would rather knock them out one by one.
But there are more and more of them, and it is impossible to tell which is the real body of the phantom demon at this time. Even if it is a powerful person like Zhao Changping, it is difficult to resist such a large number of monsters at the same time, and the mental and physical strength is very powerful.
………
A thick white fog seemed to block everything.
Han Kexin was sitting next to Jiang Xiaowen, wiping Jiang Xiaowen's dirty face with a towel, and she couldn't hear any fighting sounds in her ears.
At this time, Jiang Xiaowen suddenly woke up faintly, a pair of charming purple eyes stared at Han Kexin, and struggled a few times, but what bound her body was a kind of vine collected from the forest, and some of them were magic vines summoned by Tian Tian with her ability, all of which were extremely strong, even if she was a first-order warrior, she couldn't break free.
Han Kexin shouted in a low voice, "Xiaowen." ”
Jiang Xiaowen opened her mouth violently, like an angry young beast, and bit Han Kexin's finger, Han Kexin frowned, and hurriedly pulled out her hand, her finger had been bitten off. She smiled bitterly and gently stroked the wound, and the peeled flesh quickly healed and returned to its original state.
"Xiaowen, do you hate me very much?"
Jiang Xiaowen stared, but tears flowed from the corners of her eyes, "Bad people, you are all bad people, you all betrayed me, you all hate me, even Xiao Yu doesn't want me anymore...... I hate you, it's all your fault for snatching Xiao Yu, what did I do wrong, you want to deal with me like this, woo woo woo ......"
Han Kexin's heart trembled, but she couldn't speak for a while.
Sure enough, she already knew.
Jiang Xiaowen suddenly shouted: "I want to kill you!" ”
Wang Chao, who was not far away, was agitated and hurriedly stood up, "Damn, the little girl is still going crazy." ”
Suddenly, there was a cacophony in the woods.
I saw Xiao Yu rushing out of the woods very quickly, and shouted loudly: "Oh no, there are a lot of monsters in the woods, everyone be careful, hurry up and take precautions!" ”
Before everyone could react, there were already hideous monsters emerging from the woods, Wang Chao, Jin Shi and others hurriedly picked up their weapons and shouted: "Damn, damn it, there are really monsters!" Hurry up, everyone, kill! ”
The crowd was in a mess, gathered together, and began to block the monsters rushing towards them.
Xiao Yu swung his knife and slashed down a few monsters, retreated all the way to Han Kexin's side, and said to him: "Han Kexin, a large number of monsters have been killed, quickly give Jiang Xiaowen to me, and I will take her to a safe place to avoid it first." ”
Han Kexin frowned and looked at Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu was a little impatient and shouted loudly: "Han Kexin, what are you still doing in a daze?" Jiang Xiaowen gave me, there are more and more monsters outside, it's too dangerous here, we have to retreat! ”
Han Kexin nodded and said, "Okay! The moment the words just fell, she picked up Jiang Xiaowen with her left hand and handed it to Xiao Yu, the moment Xiao Yu's hand touched Jiang Xiaowen.
A gleam flashed in Han Kexin's eyes, but his right hand suddenly took out a long whip and whipped at Xiao Yu, this blow was too sudden, and it hit Xiao Yu directly in the chest. With a snap, she felt that the whip had indeed landed on an entity, not an apparition.
Xiao Yu snorted, was thrown out a few meters away, and fell to the ground.
Everyone was stunned, why did Han Kexin attack Xiao Yu.
At this time, Xiao Yu on the ground covered his injured chest and shouted: "Oh no, she was also bewitched by the phantom demon, everyone be careful!" ”
Han Kexin sneered, looked at him and said, "You don't look like you disguised at all. ”
Xiao Yu may call her Teacher Han, of course, she will call her Kexin in private, but she will never call Han Kexin directly. Judging from this point, this Xiao Yu is by no means true. Of course, Han Kexin is just guessing, but she is not afraid of accidental injury, although the whip is sudden, but if it is really Xiao Yu, she can completely avoid it with her talent "bullet time".
So from the moment he opened his mouth, Han Kexin made the decision to sneak attack, and now he really injured him, which undoubtedly confirmed the conjecture. The phantom demon wanted to untie Jiang Xiaowen so that he could use Jiang Xiaowen's power to deal with others. The phantom is realistic, after all, it is a false existence, and it is impossible to cut the rope for Jiang Xiaowen, so he must go out in person.
With this, it can be judged that this person who is exactly the same as Xiao Yu must be the phantom demon body!
Phantom demons can read some of people's memories, but they are not perfect replications of all aspects, and there will always be some flaws.
"Oh no, Mr. Han has also been recruited!"
Wang Chao and the others didn't know that they only saw Han Kexin lashing Xiao Yu with a sneak attack, and they all mistakenly thought that Han Kexin had also suffered from spiritual bewitchment.
