The young boy sitting next to him had been waiting for these words.

As soon as Sheng Nanxi finished speaking, he swept all the materials, pots, bowls, and pans in front of Sheng Yichen into a coarse cloth bag and disappeared in a flash.

Sheng Yichen:!!!

"Hey you little brat! Why are you cooking for me?!"

Sheng Yichen used his Qinggong to grab back his crime utensils... no, cooking utensils. But Sheng Nanxi glared at him fiercely.

Fortunately, this wronged brother was quite obedient. Sheng Nanxi coaxed him softly and finally made him give up the idea of ​​conducting experiments in the barracks and eat the beggar's chicken made by Gu Yuancheng.

It must be said that this kid is really talented. Sheng Yichen just watched him sprinkle some seasonings on a few chickens and massage and pound them with his hands, but he didn't expect that the beggar chicken he made was so delicious.

It seems that he will have to practice more in the future, lest his little girl really get kidnapped!

Fortunately, he just thought about it this way and didn't let Sheng Nanxi hear it.

It was just to let her know that her brother had such great ambitions. She might have to avoid this kind of bastard when she sees him in the future!

As soon as the little girl finished eating two plump chicken legs, Gu Yuancheng naturally took out a warm wet towel to wipe her hands, and scooped a small bowl of vegetable porridge at just the right temperature for her to drink.

Fortunately, Gu Yuancheng had foresight. In addition to burying the chick in the fire pit shared by Sheng Yichen, he also built another small fire pit to cook porridge. Before the explosion, he did not forget to catch the chick and escape.

The roast chicken porridge that Xiao Xier was eating was not affected at all.

The remaining two beggar chickens that had not been rescued in time were just a little ugly in appearance. It was no big deal for the two men to eat them.

The vegetable porridge is refreshing and warm. It not only eliminates the slightly greasy feeling after eating beggar's chicken, but also makes you feel warm after drinking it.

The little girl's belly was slightly swollen after the meal, and she felt very comfortable.

After dinner, her two brothers rushed to wash the dishes while she took a nap in the rocking chair beside the fire.

After she woke up, she roasted herself by the fire and ate melon seeds while admiring the plum blossoms in full bloom in the garden. It was a rare quiet moment during her exile.

As Sheng Yichen expected, before midnight, a very faint bird cry was heard in the distance.

After hearing this, Sheng Yichen's eyes lit up and he stood up immediately.

"Oh my! My bones are all rusted from waiting, but I can finally move my muscles."

Gu Yuancheng frowned and thought: "If we go to the West Courtyard to deal with the puppet master first, we must first break out of the encirclement of the Qian Yongping Army. I'm afraid it's not that easy."

"No need, Xiao Cheng~"

Sheng Nanxi smiled with her eyebrows curved.

"Close your eyes and I'll show you a trick"

Gu Yuancheng obeyed and did as he was told. He suddenly felt a sense of weightlessness on his feet, and then he fell to the ground again.

"It's okay to be jealous."

The girl's soft voice came.

The boy was stunned. As soon as he opened his eyes, he found himself outside a strange courtyard!

Xiao Xier actually moved them more than ten feet away in an instant!

When Gu Yuancheng was a child, he heard from the national teacher that those people from hidden wealthy families could control small flames and small water flows in a short period of time after practicing for a long time, and could even control the wind in a small range.

At that time, he was already envious of these people.

Who would have thought that Xiao Xier would have such a great ability at such a young age? !

If this isn't a fairy, then what is it?!

It is said that with great power comes great responsibility. If Xi'er did not have such great power, she would have been a carefree little girl.

After Gu Yuancheng was shocked, he felt a strong sense of pity. He secretly decided to take good care of the little pink ball in front of him.

"who?!"

The people in the yard were extremely alert. Almost as soon as they landed, more than a dozen ghostly black shadows rushed out of the yard.

The shadows were completely covered by the bamboo hat. His limbs were extremely stiff, but he seemed to be changing his body movements according to some formation.

As soon as they met, they raised their swords and attacked Sheng Yichen and Gu Yuancheng.

The two were already prepared. One of them took the black iron sword sponsored by Sheng Nancy and slashed at the other.

"Puff--puff--"

The sword stabbed into the black-clothed man's body, and thick black blood spurted out in an instant.

However, he seemed to be not afraid of the pain at all, and was not hindered by the sword wound at all. He swung the long sword and rushed towards the two people again.

"This blood is poisonous, be careful!"

Although Sheng Yichen usually disliked Gu Yuancheng, he didn't want the kid to get into trouble at the critical moment, so he hurriedly reminded him.

Gu Yuancheng nodded to show that he understood, and took the opportunity to gather his strength and jump up, chopping off the head of the man in black in front of him with a sword.

The puppet's head was still, but it just shook its stiff body and continued to stab at him with the sword.

Sure enough, they thought the same thing. These people were simply lifeless puppets!

The young man thought quickly and chopped off the legs of the man in front of him with one sword.

The man in black was cut in half in an instant. Even though he tried hard to get up, he could no longer cause any harm to him.

Gu Yuancheng finally found the secret and hurriedly reminded Sheng Yichen in a low voice.

"Brother, chop off their limbs!"

"Okay!"

Sheng Yichen immediately swung his sword and the legs of the two men in black in front of him were cut off.

Who knew that just as the two of them took a breath, another fifty or sixty puppets rushed out from the yard.

Looking at the posture, it seems like they are using human wave tactics to directly consume the two of them to exhaustion!

A few dozen steps away, an old man in a black robe was standing at the door of the tent. He played a few more notes on the strange musical instrument in his hand, releasing more puppets to attack the two people. He watched the battle leisurely.

"You are quite clever. Not only did you find my hiding place, but you also knew how to chop off the puppet's limbs. But in the face of such an absolute disparity in power, that little bit of cleverness is not enough."

This old man was just ordered to manipulate the puppets to protect the master of the Xianyuan Sect. He really didn't think that the people controlled by the master could escape his control, and just thought they were people from the martial arts world who came to seek revenge.

"Humph! You little brat dares to act wildly in front of me. You are simply seeking death!"

Seeing so many puppets coming up, the old man didn't gain much advantage over the two young men, so he became a little angry. He picked up the musical instrument in his hand and prepared to use the killing hand.

Who knew that at that moment, I suddenly heard a very faint sound of gunpowder exploding behind me!

Immediately, he felt a sharp pain in his chest, and his blood spurted out from his chest, splashing onto the ground in front of him!

He didn't even have time to turn around to see who had ended his life, and he collapsed.

I only heard a soft and delicate voice in my ear, and then I completely lost consciousness.

"They are here to die, but they are here to kill you."

Sheng Nanxi quickly put away the mini pistol with a silencer, and with a wave of her hand, she threw all the puppet-controlling tools in the cabinet, on the table, and under the bed onto the old man.

A small flame gathered in his hand, and burned the old man and those dirty things to ashes.

The puppet master and the tools for controlling the puppet were all destroyed. The dozens of men in black outside lost their master's bones in an instant, and began to twitch all over and tremble. After a while, they all fell to the ground.

"Tsk tsk... This old man deserved to die. I don't know what kind of evil magic he used to turn the dead into puppets. Let them not rest in peace even after death."

Sheng Yichen lifted up the hat of a man in black to check, and couldn't help but sigh.

"He used a kind of witchcraft. The insects parasitized in the skin of the dead for a long time, and then the old man manipulated the insects to control the human body."

Gu Yuancheng took a closer look at the tip of the sword that was stained with black blood, and indeed, he found that the black blood was filled with densely packed parasites.

"This old man should be the famous ghost-catching master in the martial arts world. It is said that this person likes to live alone and raise thousands of ghosts. He can kill people at any time. I didn't expect that he is actually a member of the Xianyuan Sect."

The ghost-catching master's clothing belt is of a style that belongs to the Xianyuan Sect. At first glance, you can tell that he is not a specially invited helper from the underworld, but originally belongs to the Xianyuan Sect.

Sheng Yichen sneered: "The Xianyuan Sect likes to pretend to be saints on the surface, but do sinister and cunning things in secret. It is not surprising that they secretly cultivate such scum in the sect."

While the two were talking, Sheng Nanxi finished collecting the valuables from several nearby tents and rushed out on her short legs.

Gu Yuancheng consciously took a few steps forward and stretched out his hand to catch the little milk bag that was flying towards him.

The two handsome guys, one big and one small, closed their eyes obediently. The little kid said "Hey", and in an instant, no one was in the courtyard.

…

At the same time, in the East Courtyard, inside the tent of the King of Qin.

The one hundred or so puppets couldn't stop shaking crazily, and then they fell to the ground one after another like scarecrows blown by the wind.

"What's going on?! Is there something wrong with the ghost catcher?"

The fake King of Qin was still immersed in the joy of his plan being accomplished, but when he saw such a strange phenomenon, he sat up from the bed.

"It looks like something has happened. Let's send someone to take a look."

The man in black had never seen such a situation before, so he walked out in a hurry.

"No, wait until midnight. This is a critical moment, we cannot afford to disperse any more manpower."

The fake King Qin always felt a little uneasy. He looked at the leak in the room and finally gritted his teeth and said:

"I feel like things are getting out of control. Although it's not yet midnight, the drug must have taken effect. Have someone bring Sheng Yichen here quickly."

"It doesn't matter if these puppets are useless. Send out a signal quickly to call everyone outside the courtyard in!"

The man in black was walking to the window to release signal fireworks when he suddenly heard a loud piercing sound in the air!

A flash of silver light flashed past, and in an instant the fireworks in his hand fell to the ground!

Immediately, Sheng Yichen's loud laughter was heard from within the tent:

"Gui Sunzi, are you looking for your grandpa? If your grandpa comes now, you don't have to waste any more fireworks."
