Just watching Zuo Ci help Yan Lu up from the ground.

The attacks from the "invisible power" did not appear again. Not only was Zuo Ci not attacked, even Yan Lu was not attacked again.

In this way, Wu Liang already understood Zhang Liang's thoughts.

He wanted them to take Yan Lu out... As for why he suddenly showed mercy, Wu Liang felt that it was not necessarily because Zhang Liang missed his old relationship and finally showed mercy to Yan Lu.

This is probably the most classic "villain dies from talking too much".

When people in later generations see this kind of plot, they usually complain about the screenwriter's forced extra drama, the protagonist's aura as a protagonist, and the villain's stupidity and brainlessness.

But if you think about it carefully from the perspective of some villains, in fact, the villains have their own reasons for doing such actions.

Just like Zhang Liang now.

Since he had used the most cruel "Ling Chi" method to torture Yan Lu before, he must have wanted to cut him into pieces. How could this hatred change so easily in a short period of time?

Therefore, the most likely reason why Zhang Liang temporarily left Yan Lu alive is because he did not want Yan Lu to die so easily or in such an unclear way.

He wanted to vent the hatred in his heart.

He wanted to teach Yan Lu to understand who wanted to kill him.

He wanted to see Yan Lu's desperate expression after seeing him.

He wanted Yan Lu to understand how stupid it was to try to harm him before.

He wanted to mock Yan Lu as a winner. The more desperate and regretful Yan Lu was, the happier he felt in his heart.

He needs to actually kill Yan Lu to achieve revenge.

But just killing Yan Lu would not satisfy him psychologically. He had to make Yan Lu die clearly, with despair and regret, in order to obtain the ultimate psychological satisfaction.

Like many criminals with superior intelligence in later generations, they always leave some clues to the police when they do something. Unlike many low-level criminals, they hope that the police can discover these clues and even guess their intentions.

, only in this way can they satisfy their perverted sense of accomplishment.

Later criminal psychology also conducted investigations.

Research shows that more than 70% of criminals will personally return to the crime scene to check the situation after the crime occurs, and will even discuss the case situation with onlookers as if nothing happened.

This behavior is also associated with similar psychology…

so.

Wu Liang thought that although Yan Lu had temporarily escaped disaster, this was not a good thing. If he really saw Zhang Liang next, his end would probably be even more miserable.

"Let's go, let's go help Zuo Ci too."

After hesitating for a moment, Wu Liang finally nodded to Dian Wei, and then reluctantly stepped forward to help.

He didn't care what Yan Lu's fate would be in the end.

And will Zhang Liang die from talking too much?

What he cares about is that Zhang Liang now takes the initiative. This move can be regarded as catering to Zhang Liang's ideas. At the same time, if Yan Lu has any backup, he and Dian Wei can be regarded as helping Yan Lu.

Calculated in this way, no matter what happens on both ends, he will not suffer losses. This is undoubtedly a business that will make a profit without losing any money.

…

The return journey went as smoothly as expected.

Fortunately, Wu Liang and Dian Wei helped, otherwise it would have taken a lot of effort for Zuo Ci alone to bring the half-disabled Yan Lu back.

However, after arriving at the river bank where they first landed, Wu Liang and others did not come out of the illusion as they wished.

Perhaps Zuo Ci and Yan Lu still haven't understood their current situation, but Wu Liang is extremely clear. If they had walked out of the illusion, they should have been able to see Zhang Liang by now.

However, at this moment, the four of them still could only see each other, and no other people.

"Wu, Mr. Wu, you have used the art of magic to travel to this secret realm before. So according to what you see, what should we do now?"

After this incident, Yan Lu became much more polite to Wu Liang. Although he hesitated for a while, he finally respected him as the son.

This time, that time.

Now there are only four of them left. Yan Lu is half-disabled and Zuo Ci's physical strength is not that good. Wu Liang and Dian Wei, the master and servant who are not affected by the Gu insects, naturally have the most say among the four.

people.

certainly.

There was another reason why Yan Lu didn't ask Zuo Ci first.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Wu Liang, the "successor of Ji Tong", was clearly better at judging this formation before, while Zuo Ci became the backdrop.

Therefore, Yan Lu was more willing to believe Wu Liang's judgment at this moment.

"From what I see, you should fulfill your promise first and draw out the worms from his body."

Wu Liang pouted decisively and returned the question to Zuo Ci and Yan Lu.

Zhang Liang was probably watching their every move and listening to their every word. He thought the safest thing to do at this moment was to speak less and show less to avoid getting angry.

As for the "Ji Shu" he invented.

Wu Liang suspected that Zhang Liang had heard it before, so it didn't matter if Yan Lu mentioned it again now. If Zhang Liang asked about it later, it would not be too late for him to adapt to the situation.

at the same time.

Wu Liang also heard from this question that Yan Lu actually had the idea of ​​going to the stone house at this moment.

Otherwise, Yan Lu should not ask "What should we do now?" but should ask "How should we leave now?"

This also aroused Wu Liang's vigilance.

He had to wonder if Yan Lu had any backup plans.

After all, Yan Lu was already at an absolute disadvantage at this moment. If he insisted on going to that stone room again, no matter what rare treasures were hidden in the stone room, he would most likely just make a wedding dress for someone else.

Is Yan Lu such a "charity-loving" person?

Obviously not!

I don’t know what this guy is thinking about...

"this……"

Yan Lu seemed to have never expected that the person who first mentioned this matter was not Zuo Ci but Wu Liang. However, due to the situation at the moment, he still had to laugh dryly and said, "This is natural, Master Zuo Xian"

You just saved my life, how could I go back on my word...Master Zuo, please come here, I will draw out the poisonous worms in your body, but before that I still have to explain something, although your eyes are mine

I had to do it myself, but it was Zhang Liang’s wish. As a slave, I couldn’t help myself at that time.”

This guy is really thoughtful.

At this point, he still remembered to put the blame out of the matter first, so as not to suffer Zuo Ci's revenge after he lured out the poison for Zuo Ci.

"Master Wu actually still remembers my affairs at this moment. He is so benevolent and righteous, which makes me feel a little ashamed."

Zuo Ci gave priority to Wu Liang and thanked him. Perhaps he had finished what he had to say, and then walked to Yan Lu's side unhurriedly and let him do whatever he wanted. He didn't seem that anxious.

"Master Zuo Xian is serious in his words, we are just showing sympathy for each other."

Wu Liang saw this in his eyes and just smiled in return.

However, at this moment, he knew better than anyone else that if Zhang Liang mastered the means to deal with this psychedelic formation and could pull them out of the illusion, it would appear soon.

Because he took away Yan Lu's copper bell for controlling Gu insects.

Even if Zhang Liang didn't know yet that Yan Lu had poisoned almost all the soldiers who entered here, he must have known that the copper bell was related to Zuo Ci's life, and since he had taken the copper bell away before

, of course he wanted to use this to control Zuo Ci, so how could he just sit aside and watch Yan Lu lure out the Gu insects for Zuo Ci?

So Wu Liang taught Yan Lu to keep his promise and it was not just about delaying time.

When everyone thought he was still on the first floor, he was actually already standing on the fifth floor.

…

Yan Lu supported his body and sat cross-legged on the ground, calming down for a moment.

"You will feel a little uncomfortable during the process of drawing out the poisonous insects, just be patient and you will be fine."

After saying this to Zuo Ci, Yan Lu slowly stretched his hand towards the abdomen of Zuo Ci, who was sitting face to face with him on the floor. Zuo Ci also took a deep breath and waited quietly.

How can you still endure your temper?

Wu Liang stood aside and watched silently, but he thought so in his heart.

He firmly believed that Zhang Liang would never allow this matter to proceed smoothly, but it was hard to say when exactly he would take action. Anyway... it wouldn't be far away.

finally.

Yan Lu's hand touched Zuo Ci's abdomen.

"Goo!"

Zuo Ci's body immediately twitched, and then his neck suddenly stretched straight, his mouth opened slightly, and he couldn't help but make a sound similar to a burp.

"rise!"

Yan Lu groaned softly again.
