Chapter 74 Liars
Meng Yijue sat at the table, concentrating on drawing a spell.
The door opened slowly with a "squeak" sound, and Qingyang walked in lightly with a cloth bag in his arms.
"Master, I have collected all the things you want me to prepare."
Meng Yijue nodded lightly, "Thanks for your hard work." He put down the cinnabar pen and carefully put the spell he had just drawn aside to dry.
Qingyang walked over, looked at the freshly drawn charm on the talisman paper, and a trace of joy rose on his brows: "Master, this is already the No. 12 talisman, right? Every time I see Master draws a new talisman , I feel that we are one step closer to defeating the Demon Lord."
Meng Yijue smiled lightly, "It's still early. However, it will always be realized slowly."
Today is the seventh day since they came to the Demon Realm.
Two days ago, Mozun summoned all the able-bodied generals under his command, and together with Ling Yuan, they left the Demon Palace for an expedition.
Today's Demon Realm presents a situation of "three parts of the world".To the east is the territory occupied by the demon king Shui Wuming, to the northwest is the "Evil Spirit Dynasty" jointly established by the Nether and ghost tribes, and to the south is the "Monster Alliance" formed by hundreds of monster tribes and beast tribes. ".
Five years ago, the Nether King had made an agreement with Haoyuezong that as long as Tuanzi did not return to the Demon Realm, they would no longer invade the Human Realm.
But now that the news of Ling Yuan's return to the Demon Realm has already spread to all walks of life, the Nether King couldn't hold back any longer, and led the army of evil spirits to attack Lord Water Demon's domain aggressively.
And it was this opportunity that Mozun was waiting for.After realizing that the Nether King led the army approaching, he immediately gathered a group of troops, and brought Ling Yuan with him, and set off in a mighty manner.At present, the two armies have fiercely exchanged fire, and the situation of the battle is temporarily unknown.
For the past two days after Lingyuan left, Meng Yijue and Qingyang stayed behind closed doors in the dormitory, stepping up to make the spells needed to deal with the Demon Lord.
At present, there are 72 spells of the "Zhi Ge Talisman" restored from the three swordsmanship, and Meng Yijue estimates based on his own experience in practicing Talisman that the number of spells in the complete Zhi Ge Talisman group may be about [-] .
In the case of missing a quarter of the spell set, relying on only 72 spells, it cannot effectively exert the effect of defeating the enemy, and it must be assembled into a complete set to take effect.
So in the next few days, Meng Yijue needs to write the missing spells on the basis of the existing intelligence data to complete this set of spells.
And spells alone are not enough.Yin Bracelet also calculated that Meng Yijue's own aura reserves were nearly two hundred times different from that of the Demon Lord. If he wanted to win in the duel, he had to prepare a sufficient number of spells in advance.
A set of anti-god talisman can't handle the Demon Lord, at least fifty sets of spells must be fired at the same time to subdue the Demon Lord.
Therefore, what Meng Yijue is doing now is mainly these two things: one is to create his own spells and complete the set of runes, and the other is to make at least fifty sets of the complete set of runes, which are ready to be used when fighting the demon king. use.
Making talismans is not only a simple drawing, but also injecting one's own aura while drawing the talismans.According to his current aura reserves, he can only make at most two spells a day.
Meng Yijue spent a huge amount of points to buy a set of talisman double-speed space in the system mall, and the progress can be increased by three to four times.In this way, he can roughly complete all the spells within the agreed two years.
Of course, this is the most idealized state.If it is interrupted or discovered halfway, then things will be difficult.
Meng Yijue withdrew his thoughts.He stood up and placed the two spells drawn today side by side on the ground in the middle of the dormitory, and then sprinkled some pepper powder that Qingyang got from outside on top to let the spells cool down quickly.
Qingyang was on the sidelines carefully sorting out the spells that Master had made before.He looked at the talismans like a farmer looking at his crops, looking forward to a good harvest.
After the day's task was over, Meng Yijue stretched himself, sat at the small table next to him, and pulled out a paper bag from the drawer under the table.
"Qingyang, come, eat some chestnuts."
Qingyang came over, looked at the bag of fried chestnuts, and said in surprise: "Isn't this the chestnuts in our lunch, Master actually re-fried it?"
Meng Yijue smiled, grabbed a few chestnuts and put them in Qingyang's palm.
"Well, it's the chestnuts for lunch. The chefs in the magic palace are not skilled enough, and the chestnuts they made were half-baked. I put it back into the pot and fried it again with sand and stone. Try it soon, it's really sweet."
Qingyang's eyes were wide open, "Did Master find the pot from that magic bracelet?"
Meng Yijue nodded: "Not bad."
The master and apprentice ate sweetly.
"Master's silver bracelet is so convenient, you can find all kinds of cooking tools." Qingyang muttered while peeling chestnuts: "The food of these monsters is really not suitable for us to eat, and the chestnuts are not cooked well. Forget it, even the meat is half-stained with blood, if there is no Master, I will probably starve to death here in less than two years."
Thinking of this, his eyes dimmed.
"It's... she tied me to this demon realm, but now we are fending for ourselves in the demon palace, and she has never even shown her face in front of my eyes."
Meng Yijue's heart also sank.
That's right, at the beginning Yingying tried her best to bring them to the Demon Realm, but after returning to the Demon Realm, it was as if she had disappeared without a trace.
The time Meng Yijue followed Ling Yuan to the hall for breakfast, the hall was full of the Demon Lord's capable men, and Yingying, the Demon Lord's daughter, should also be among them.But she was not there.
Seeing Qingyang's bitter eyes, Meng Yijue remembered that he had been working hard to help him these days, trying desperately to find something to do, probably because he wanted to use this to distract himself from thinking about things related to Yingying. .
He patted Afraid Qingyang's arm, and changed the topic: "Don't think about those sad things. By the way, we have been here in the Demon Palace for so many days, and we haven't had a good meal. Later, Master will find you Come out with some barbecue tools, and make a barbecue in the garden tonight!"
After hearing this, Qingyang forced a smile, "Okay."
evening.The little demons delivered today's dinner on time, including rice, vegetable soup, as well as a lot of beef and mutton chops and pork belly.As usual, the meat was undercooked and bloodshot.
After the little demons left, Meng Yijue took out materials such as barbecue grills and charcoal blocks purchased from the space, and moved them to the empty yard with Qingyang.
They use knives to cut the meat into small pieces or strips, and then use bamboo sticks to string them one by one to make meat skewers; then light a small fire, sprinkle fragrant cumin and other seasonings on the meat, drip oil, and go on like crazy roasted up.
After waiting patiently, the skewers were almost cooked, so the two moved a small stool and sat down by the grill.
Qingyang picked up a skewer of beef first, blew on the hot meat skewer twice, and then opened his mouth to bite off a piece.
As soon as the skin was torn off, a scorched aroma immediately spread around, and the two of them sniffed it unconsciously—it smells so good!
Qingyang chewed the firm and delicious barbecue, and nodded again and again: "Well, it's really delicious! Come and eat, Master!"
Meng Yijue also took a bunch of mutton, and ate it with relish along with the warm egg cauliflower soup and rice.
The two ate while grilling, enjoying the most delicious dinner since returning to the Demon Realm.
Not long after, as the aroma of barbecue continued to spread, something in the magic palace was attracted.
Meng Yijue was eating a bunch of pork belly when he suddenly heard movement from the courtyard door.He looked back and saw several golden bright spots gradually approaching in the darkness.
Qingyang also became alert and put down his chopsticks: "Something is coming!"
As the sound of light footsteps approached, they discovered that those sneaking over from the door were actually a few civet cats.
They have yellow-brown and black skin, and the hair on their backs stands sharply. They make low-pitched grunting sounds as they approach this side.
It looks... not a good person.
When Qingyang saw the civet cats tentatively approaching, he looked at the meat skewers in his hand, and quickly understood: "These guys have smelled it, and they want to grab some of it!"
Before the words fell, there was only a "meow", and the biggest civet cat in the lead rushed over first, and ran straight to Meng Yijue who was holding the barbecue.
Seeing the sharp minions attacking him, Meng Yijue immediately turned around and dodged.But at this moment, the rest of the civet cats gathered around one after another, each of them gearing up and grinning, looking like they are going to grab you domineeringly!
"Stinky raccoon cat, we are already in such a miserable situation, yet you still have the nerve to snatch our barbecue!"
Qingyang shouted loudly and jumped up violently.
Under the crisis of being robbed of the barbecue, he unexpectedly broke out with extraordinary fighting power, three punches and two kicks knocked over the two civet cats who rushed forward.
The rest of the civet cats looked at each other, and rushed towards Qingyang in a swarm.
Meng Yijue couldn't move his hands while holding the skewers, so he ate one of the barbecue meats in a few mouthfuls, and then drew a talisman in the air with a bamboo stick, immobilizing the civet cats who came to fight in place.
But when they were dealing with other civet cats, the biggest Elvis took the opportunity to get behind Meng Yijue, and stretched his claws towards the meat skewers that had just been grilled.
"No wow——!"
Qingyang caught a glimpse of Elvis Presley's movement from the corner of his eye, and quickly turned around and rushed over, but it was too late - he watched the civet cat snort and laughed, grabbed a skewer of barbecued meat with its paws, and stuffed it into its mouth.
During the scuffle, I suddenly heard a familiar voice softly saying: "Everyone back down!" The civet cats who were fiercely fighting for the barbecue stopped their movements and left the courtyard with their tails drooping.
Qingyang turned around stiffly, and looked at the person who was slowly walking from the shadows.
"Yingying..."
Shui Yingying is still dressed in the past, her expression is calm, and her whole person has not changed.
She repelled the civet cats, and then walked slowly towards the two in the courtyard.
Unexpectedly meeting her in a completely unexpected situation, Qingyang felt inexplicable for a while.He clenched his fist subconsciously, turned around and walked aside, with his back to her.
Yingying stared at his back quietly, and called out: "Qingyang..."
"Don't call me by my name, and don't continue to say anything!" Qingyang's chest heaved violently, and words came out fiercely from between his teeth, "We met once, I don't want to say bad things to you. You go Bar!"
Yingying's expression remained unchanged, and she repeated his name again, "Qingyang."
Qingyang still didn't turn around.He didn't want to see that face again, he just raised his head and stared blankly at the dim night sky in the Demon Realm, and murmured:
"I used to want to see you. When you first captured me in the Demon Realm... I really wanted you to give me an explanation, even if it was only one sentence, so I would give up. But we have been in the Demon Realm for so many days. , you have never shown up before. Hehe..."
He smiled dryly, "Others always say I'm stupid, but now, no matter how stupid I am, I can see that you have never treated me sincerely, and you have never cared about everyone in Zhulinyuan. You are full of words Liars who lie, come to us at this time, what do you want to say, huh? Do you want to fool us around?"
With a click, Qingyang abruptly broke the bamboo stick in his hand into several pieces, and the wood chips fell to the ground.
The scene was stalemate for a moment, Meng Yijue looked at Qingyang, then at Yingying, and said softly: "Yingying, you'd better go."
Yingying turned her eyes and said in a deep voice: "I have something to say, I must tell you."
"No need." Meng Yijue shook his head gently, "The trust we once had in you has already been torn apart by your own hands. Come again, no matter what you say, we will not believe it. If you don't leave, we won't You're welcome."
Yingying didn't speak.She suddenly raised a hand and shook it slightly in the air.
Following her movements, Meng Yijue suddenly felt a tingle in his shoulder and neck, as if something was coming out from his shoulder.
He subconsciously stretched out his hand to scratch, but accidentally touched a slippery living creature on the skin.
He was startled, and immediately pinched it to have a look—it turned out to be a transparent bluish little frog-like thing, less than half the size of a human finger.
This "frog" actually got out from under his own skin!
With a slight movement of Yingying's fingers, the "frog" jumped up from Meng Yijue's fingertips and landed in her palm.
Meng Yijue looked at her in shock: "You...you hid this thing on me, what exactly is it?"
"It's called the 'Leaping Frog', and it can approach a person silently, penetrate under the person's skin without knowing it, and blend with the person. Knowing everything."
Qingyang suddenly turned his head and looked at Shui Yingying in disbelief: "You've been watching us all this time!"
Yingying said calmly: "The Demon Lord wants me to implant this diving frog in your body to monitor your actions at any time. Therefore, in the past few days, everything you said and did was seen by it. "
Meng Yijue's mind went blank for a moment.
He never imagined that these days, he has been acting with great care. Not only are the four sides of the dormitory full of charms, so that no bird feathers can fly into the house, but both the conversation and the talisman are completely closed. The purpose of doing this in the dormitory is to prevent the plan from being leaked, and the Demon Lord would know about it in advance.
Who would have thought that Yingying had left behind such a trick, implanting an imperceptible monster in his body, and what he had done in the past few days was clearly seen by this leaping frog!
In other words, Yingying now knows all the plans he made to destroy the Demon Lord, including the Zhige Talisman and the secret of the wood charm's identity!
At that moment, Meng Yijue stared at Shui Yingying, and suddenly stretched out his hand and clenched the charm in his pocket, a murderous thought floated in his heart.
We can't let Yingying walk out of this yard alive.
Those efforts and plans they have made, once known by the demon king, will definitely be wasted.Before the Zhige Talisman is successfully released, the Mozun will kill him first!
Qingyang also yelled angrily, and rushed towards Yingying out of control: "Shui Yingying! You! You...you are a wolf-hearted liar! Wicked!"
He drew his sword and pointed it at Yingying's throat, and shouted: "Master, you can't let her go! Once she tells the devil, we will all be exposed!"
Yingying's body vented a little, and Qingyang who was stabbing him back a few steps.Then, she clasped her hands together, made a seal in front of her heart, and silently recited a mantra.
An invisible barrier unfolded from the sky above the courtyard, completely isolating the sound inside from the outside world.
"If I really wanted to tell the truth, I wouldn't wait until now." Yingying looked at them and said lightly, "Meng Yijue, I guessed that you were from the Mumei clan when I saw you helping Ling Yuan to breathe. If you tell the Mozun about this, even if you are the person Ling Yuan cares about most, the Mozun will not let you live till now."
She stretched out her fingers and fiddled with the miniature frog in her palm, "Besides, the Mozun specially arranged for me to monitor you. After discovering your plan, I just need to call back the leaping frog and hand it to him before you are aware of it." It’s fine, and there is no need to send it to your door, so that you have a chance to kill me.”
Qingyang said: "So, what are you thinking now? Are you going to blackmail us with this?"
Yingying's eyes moved slowly between the two of them: "You want to defeat the Demon Lord, but with your current strength alone, you can't kill him completely. Because you know so little about him. .”
Qingyang sneered, "We have our own way to eliminate him, it's not your turn to worry about it!"
Yingying shook her head, "Do you know that the Demon Lord you can see now is not his real body at all, but a 'split body' that he deliberately used as a cover?"
Qingyang was taken aback.
Yingying continued: "The Demon Venerable is very vigilant. He has made countless enemies in the Demon Realm, and countless people want his life. In order to protect himself, he usually appears in front of the world as a split body. It is to use this false clone. Block the knife for your own body. If you rush to attack and kill him, you will fall into his trap. Not only will you not be able to kill his body, but you will be aware of his tricks. At that time, it will be difficult to deal with him! "
