Chapter 101 The Man in the Mirror (The second update will be at 8 am)

Li Wuxiang's face changed. Seeing him like this, Cheng Peixin and Cheng Shengfei were stunned for a moment before they reacted. They also straightened their bodies and looked at Ning Xu together.

"What else? Tell me in detail, when was the first time?"

"Ah, I picked it up and took it home that day. I wanted to give it to my wife. My wife's birthday is coming up. I, I wanted to..."

Cheng Peixin said: "Don't talk about these, pick it up and tell me the important thing!"

"Yes, I hid it for two days, in the cabinet. My wife went back to her parents' home. She wanted to... uh, I said the important thing is that I kept dreaming those two nights. In the dream, it seemed like I heard people talking and quarreling. The day before yesterday, I suddenly thought of this mirror. I thought, others say that mirrors attract evil spirits, and I felt something was wrong. That night I was... Take it out and have a look——"

"I looked at it but didn't feel anything wrong. I was tired that day, so I fell asleep while looking at it. As a result, in the middle of the night, I heard someone making noise in my dream, which woke me up. When I woke up, I really heard someone talking. This is it——"

Ning Xu pointed quickly, as if he was afraid that the mirror would bite him: "Someone is talking in it! He said that he was a swordsman named Guo Jianming, who was captured and locked up in here, and asked me to find someone to save him. I heard that he didn't sound vicious, so I asked him if he was a human or a ghost, and he said he was a human. "

He didn't say anything, just looked at Li Wuxiang eagerly.

Li Wuxiang frowned: "Then what?"

"It was gone, and then it gradually became quiet, and I couldn't hear it clearly."

"Did he tell you who to find to save him?"

Ning Xu looked at Li Wuxiang with a bitter face and blinked his eyes, then looked at Cheng Peixin: "Ah? Who?"

Cheng Peixin whispered: "Is it the one you asked to find us?"

Li Wuxiang shook his head and looked at the mirror again: "I didn't ask his name."

Cheng Peixin looked at Ning Xu: "If you really want to get rid of this mirror, leave it here first. Master Li and I will slowly discuss it. You go back first."

"Ah...Okay." Ning Xu responded, moved his feet, but only looked at the mirror and didn't leave.

Cheng Peixin frowned: "Go to the backyard and ask Madam Zhang for some money. How much do you think this thing is worth, and ask her to give you as much as you think."

He then hurriedly thanked him and walked out.

As soon as he left, Cheng Peixin immediately said, "Feier, follow him to his residence and ask the neighbors on both sides if there is such a person."

Cheng Shengfei immediately stood up: "Yes!"

There were only two people left sitting in the courtyard. Cheng Peixin looked at the mirror and whispered, "Daoyou, don't be sad. Since he said he is a human and not a ghost, he may still be alive. Besides, he may not be the one who helped you. There are many cultivators named Guo in Deyang City."

Li Wuxiang was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing in his heart. It should be because of the "swordsman" filter... Cheng Peixin seemed to have a misunderstanding of his own temperament.

Even if it was really Lao Guo, it would not be sad. According to what he saw and felt these days, Lao Guo may have taken a few lives that he shouldn't have taken when he was walking around the world. If he really died, it can be regarded as a constant life.

But if he is not dead and is really trapped in this mirror, since he promised to teach him to be a swordsman, he must be saved.

At this time, Cheng Peixin said again: "But that person did ask for the right way. The word Tianxin in our Tianxin Sect actually comes from the treasure 'Zhi Yue Xuan Guang' that has been sealed by the sect. It is really trapped in the mirror. It should be a mirror shadow technique. There should be no one in the thirty-six sects who is better than the disciples of Tianxin. Can you let me take a look?"

"Thank you." Li Wuxiang handed it over.

Cheng Peixin took the bronze mirror, looked at it carefully, touched it, and sniffed it: "Last year, a batch of bronze mirrors came to the Liu family's cosmetics shop. Her things are all made by her own workshop, and can't be bought anywhere else. This thing should be from Deyang City."

Then she put two fingers together, drew a few circles on the mirror, and closed her eyes slightly: "Mirror shadow magic is the most difficult to detect, but it is also very common. Many spirits transform into mansions, mostly with this kind of magic-"

She opened her eyes again and handed the bronze mirror back to Li Wuxiang: "I can't find anything. Daoyou think it's that General Bai? This is also possible. Spirits are good at using this kind of magic. Things like mirrors are also a good place to store Yin objects. . "

"Usually, they nurture the ghosts and slowly develop the ghost soldiers. But the more vicious and advanced ones will take in the living. The living have innate qi and blood, and the ghost soldiers made with these things are more powerful. If it is this kind..." Cheng Peixin sighed, "The ghost is very light, and the living is very heavy, it is very difficult to save it."

Li Wuxiang nodded: "But do you have a way?"

"It's very troublesome and not worth it. But Taoist friend, don't worry, wait until Fei'er comes back. "

When Cheng Shengfei came back, it was almost midnight. He said that he followed Ning Xu back to his home and saw that the home furnishings were all ordinary. He asked the night watchman who patrolled the street, and he also said that his family had been in Deyang City for five generations, and he was indeed a bricklayer.

So the three of them waited around the bronze mirror in the courtyard, and Madam Zhang made some midnight snacks in the kitchen. But before the first cup of tea came up, the sound in the mirror appeared.

From light to heavy, it was like a person floating out of deep water while panting and speaking: "... Life, help... Is there anyone, help, save me..."

The voice sounded extremely miserable, as if some evil ghost was haunting at night, no wonder Ning Xu said it was haunted.

But it was indeed the voice of the swordsman Lao Guo!

Li Wuxiang immediately moved slightly closer: "Lao Guo?"

The sound in the mirror suddenly disappeared. After a while, he suddenly said loudly: "Sect Master? Sect Master? Are you the Sect Master?"

"It's me. How did you get in here?"

Guo Jianming's voice sounded filled with tears: "I, I, I, I reported the letter to you, sect leader, that day, so I thought about finding more people to help, so I ran to a few more places, but later I heard that you, sect leader, had That Immortal Xu was killed—"

Li Wuxiang raised his eyebrows. He should have found a place to hide and wait and see the situation after delivering the letter. Loose cultivators in the world dare to risk their lives to fight for their future, but they must also be careful. If he didn't do this, he would feel a bit stupid.

"——I will come back to find you immediately. I asked someone that you were in Feiyunguan, and I was wondering how you got there. That woman in Feiyunguan, huh, it's really——"

"Well, you and I are both at Feiyun Temple at the moment."

"...Ah...Huh, it's really a pleasure to do things. I just asked for a few words and then came to help. I thought that it was great for you to come to Feiyun Temple, Sect Master. You are a good person and a good place, so I hurried to Feiyun. Look, but when I saw the back door, I was suddenly arrested..."

"Who caught you?"

"I didn't see clearly... He was all in white, with white clothes and white hair. I thought he was some kind of master. As soon as he raised his hand, I fainted. When I woke up, I was here. Sect Master, help me out. I I can’t stand it anymore, I really can’t stand it anymore…”

The three of them looked at each other, and Cheng Peixin frowned: "General Bai? This is the first time I've heard of that weird appearance."

Li Wuxiang looked at the mirror: "What does it look like in there?"

"It's dark, Sect Leader. I can't even reach the end. I can't see anything. It's fishy and smelly. Ghosts cry... wolves..."

His voice gradually weakened again as it did at the beginning, as if it was moving away from the mirror. Li Wuxiang immediately asked again: "Lao Guo, what did I say to you when we were on Ranshan Mountain?"

"...ask me...to be a swordsman,...teach me how to make a sword..."

The voice of these last two sentences was extremely subtle, but Guo Jianming seemed to have shouted it, but the voice drifted away and could no longer be heard.

Li Wuxiang looked up at Cheng Peixin.

Cheng Peixin sighed and shook her head: "It's hopeless, fellow Taoist. I originally thought it was just an ordinary mirror, but since it turned out to be what he said, I'm afraid... this mirror has been turned into a magic weapon. What's in this mirror... is really evil. In this mirror, the Yin soldiers are being refined through the Lingshan Mountain."
