sixteen

There are too many meanings in one word. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It is a coincidence that Shi Yanwen came to this world, it is a coincidence that he entered Fudong City, it is a coincidence that he has this ability, and the appearance of the string head is also a coincidence. But what if these coincidences are not coincidences?

After all, how can there be so many coincidences in the world?

After sunset, before midnight, when the red glow has faded for a long time, the distant expanse of the sky becomes gloomy and oppressive, and the stars reflect each other, but they seem more and more out of reach.

It's a good time to rest, but unfortunately, people inside and outside the city can't live in peace, which is really boring, especially for an old man.

Qu Shitu looked at the lobby where there were three people missing in an instant, and silently rolled up his sleeves.

Shi Yanwen looked at him in surprise, "Steward Qu, what are you?" ”

"Supper!" Qu Shitu sighed, "No one will pick up the wind and wash the dust for us, then I have to be self-reliant, and by the way, I will treat you all, alas, they all choose to fight at night, really!" ”

……

Shi Yanwen still went to the city wall to watch the battle, it was a good place, and the situation was clear at a glance. There are still four people in the line of the creators, but there is no ethereal moon and withered nine springs. The ethereal moon should have been intercepted by Su Huanzhen at this moment, and it was a good thing that Kujiuquan didn't come for some reason.

Three-on-four, the strength of the other party should not be underestimated, but they can still cope with it. Su really had an early instruct, this battle is just a false move, and after passing his hands, he will return to the city to open the formation, the materials for building the city are special, and the mixed formation is even more difficult to enter. The enemy's purpose is still being tested, and only by showing an appropriate retreat can they give the other party appropriate confidence and not let the situation get out of control.

Looking at it, Shi Yanwen suddenly felt a slight sound behind him, deliberately lightened his steps, and secretly climbed up the stone ladder at the corner of the wall, Shi Yanwen paused, looked sideways, and the child in soft armor was looking at him with a smile, putting his finger in front of his lips, signaling him not to make a noise.

Squatting down and pulling the person up, Shi Yanwen patted the dust off his hands, the ladder made of this boulder is too high, and his feet are not long enough, so his hands are naturally not idle, "What are you doing when you come up, Xiaohu?" ”

The little ghost smiled, leaned into his ear, and his eyes involuntarily glanced out of the city, "I'm hungry, I want to get up and find something to eat, Uncle Qu is still preparing, and said let me come to you." ”

It's really not a weak heart, Shi Yanwen led him to the corner and asked softly, "Really let you come to me, instead of letting you stay obediently?" ”

The little ghost stiffened for a moment, and he hesitated for a long time, "He only said to stay, and he didn't say where to stay, I am willing to stay here!" ”

"Ha," Shi Yanwen asked him to lean on his body, trying his best to cover up the aura of the two, "If you want to see it, you can see it, but don't make a sound." ”

The little ghost looked up at him, "Aren't you going to drive me down?" ”

"If I drive you down, will you go down?"

"Don't."

"That's it," Shi Yanwen pinched his nose, "And the Demon Devouring Boy is also famous now, so it's not strange to be detected, but if it's just one person, don't come up casually." ”

The little ghost touched his nose, "You're so easy to talk to." ”

"How is it better than your master?"

"Hmm...... Six of one and half a dozen of the other. ”

It should be.

The disadvantage of their own side has been revealed, the creator and his party saw the opportunity, the move became more and more aggressive, Liao Yufeng and the silver leopard faced the remaining three people and fought and retreated, and did not start the battle, it seemed reluctant, but the footsteps were not panicked. It was the goshawk, who did not retreat, as if he had a lot of strength left, and a trace of appreciation flashed in the eyes of the creator, "The person who broke my extreme trick last time was also you?" ”

Shi Yanwen was slightly stunned and looked at the goshawk, the goshawk hesitated for a moment and still shook his head, the creator laughed, his palm was facing the ground, the ground cracked instantly, his hands were together, and a trace of ghostly aura condensed on all sides.

It's still that trick "Dead Soul Falling"! And, it's fast!

Before he could think about it, the goshawk condensed his qi into a sword, accepted the sword qi, and slashed it in the air!

"Drink!"

The two moves collided, and the huge coercion formed a huge wave rushed out layer by layer, Shi Yanwen was about to feel at ease, but saw a dark streamer flashing in a black smoke miasma, rushing straight towards him!

Shi Yanwen hurriedly covered the mouth of the little ghost's head, blocked the scream, turned sideways on the wall, and the cold wind blew up his long hair, and the snow-white figure was particularly eye-catching under the moon. He turned his head sideways, his white collar covering half of his face, but his blue eyes were straight to the gaze that came from him, and he didn't miss the bit of cruelty and surprise.

"......" raised his other hand and wiped it on his face, a faint blood color slid down his fingertips, Shi Yanwen closed his eyes slightly, "I see." ”

He had already noticed Shi Yanwen's location, and the question he asked just now was just to divert everyone's attention.

It's really, broken.

Su really had better deal with Kujiuquan quickly, if not, just wait for the creator to go back and ask a little, the identity of the Qilin Star is afraid that it will arouse suspicion, although the connection between him and Su is not known to everyone now, but it will always give the enemy a chance to take advantage of.

Seeing that the situation had changed, the goshawk no longer dwelled on it, and took advantage of the situation to set off a wave of dust all over the ground, wanting to retreat. The Creator snorted coldly, suddenly jumped into the air, spread his hands, and lifted the True Yuan of his whole body, which was even heavier than the last time, as vast as a galloping horse, "Since I returned to the world, you are the first person to let me use this trick - Burning Heaven Sin!" ”

This move is huge, but the goshawk is not a general, the more clear and steady sword qi is staggered back and forth from the inside to the outside, like a sword wall, Liao Yufeng and the silver leopard glanced at each other, and both retreated to the side of the goshawk, like a mountain pressure is also majestic!

The time has come.

Boom Boom!

A huge noise resounded in the sky, Shi Yanwen was staggered when he landed with the little ghost's head, and the rocks were still visible, Shi Yanwen was a little apprehensive, although he knew that the first temptation of the creator must have hidden his strength, but this time it was indeed unexpected.

As soon as the little ghost hit the ground, he nervously pulled him and asked, "How are you?" Your palms were suddenly so cold just now, were you hurt somewhere? ”

Shi Yanwen shook his head, wiped the blood on his face, and saw that no one had come over, "It's okay, it's just a little bruise, don't be nervous." ”

"But you justβ€”"

"Am I okay right now?" Shi Yanwen interrupted him.

"Nothing, but I ...... just now"

"Yanwen Wen is cold, it's not a big deal," the beacon fire outside the city has stopped, presumably the goshawks should also come back, Shi Yanwen frowned secretly, and continued, "You almost encountered danger on the city wall just now, you should think about how to face your Uncle Qu's complaints." ”

The little ghost's face fell, "Ah! That's right! Uncle Qu will definitely scold me later! ”

Shi Yanwen winked at him, "That's it, I won't tell him that you've been to the city wall, and you shouldn't tell anyone what happened just now, let it be a secret, okay?" ”

The little ghost's face was better again, but he was still a little uneasy, and he wanted to say something, but Shi Yanwen sighed, pulled him behind him, and said to the front, "Are you all right?" ”

The silver leopard took off his mask, "Is there any danger, what about you?" ”

"Nothing."

The goshawk pointed to the little ghost's head.

Shi Yanwen smiled, rubbed his head, and then pulled him inside and said, "He can't sleep when he's hungry, by the way, Qu Shitu said that he wants to treat you, go in quickly." ”

Su Huanzhen came back in the second half of the night, and it happened that when the little ghost was full of food and drink, he pounced on him when he came back, and Shizun kept shouting, and said, "Shizun, you are so handsome in this dress!" ”

"Master, you came back so late, the little fox is asleep."

"Master ......"

Su was really helpless, "I said that if I put on a mask, I will call me the city lord, and you will forget it quickly." ”

The little ghost stuck out his tongue, "There are no outsiders here, what is the master still wearing this?" Let's pick it up. ”

Su Huanzhen shook his head and said, "I still have important matters to discuss with them, it's late, why don't you go to sleep yet?" ”

"But I've just eaten."

"How about walking a hundred steps to eat?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I went to sleep. ”

The sword ape and sword wolf were tired, and when they saw the soft and crispy soup prepared by Qu Shitu for them, they came to their senses again, and they took off their masks with bright eyes and wanted to run up, but the seniors of the family were there, so they had to restrain their hands and feet and be polite, and eat like a young lady who had not left the cabinet, which was uncomfortable and awkward.

This age is the most troublesome, envy the carefree of children, say what they want to do, and envy the generosity of their predecessors, calm and steady, and have a degree of advance and retreat, but the measurement in the middle is not to be pointed.

The more Shi Yanwen looked at it, the amused it became, so he persuaded them to simply go to the kitchen, they asked the goshawk's opinion with their eyes, and only when they saw him nodding did they leave with their rice bowls.

Speaking of which, it's not much different from the little ghost.

When Su Huanzhen was discussing with everyone, Shi Yanwen hurriedly returned to his side hall and left in a hurry.

He was a little uncomfortable, top-heavy, and his body was as cold as ice cubes when he first woke up, and he groped his way to the side of the bed in a daze, and he covered his head and fell down without even unlifting the curtains, but fortunately he did not faint completely.

Obviously, there was no discomfort at all, but he just went down the city wall, how did it become like this again? Fortunately, Su really didn't see it.

It was the joy that suddenly I saw someone approaching in the dark, the shadow flickered and disappeared, the strings were unprovoked and there were bursts of ghostly sounds, and the key was very low, like a lullaby. Shi Yanwen reluctantly opened his eyes and looked at it, except for the ice veil moving with the wind, there was no sign of human tracks.

Again, there was a time in the daytime, the inexplicable heart was surging, and the strings resounded clearly, as if they were calming, and as if they were ......

Repression.

Otherwise, why is it that even the body is slowly weakened?

Unsettled, Shi Yanwen grabbed the unicorn statue at the head of the bed and sat up, the night was cold, and the ground was even colder, but he didn't seem to feel it, and staggered to the piano platform.

The strings were still moving, and the tactful minor tune that slowly flowed out soothed the panic in his heart, Shi Yanwen sat down against the piano table in a daze, leaned on the side and listened to the tune like a whisper, the cinnabar buried in the flesh suddenly emitted a little dark red, soothing the tiredness and spreading his eyelids, but now was not the time for him to sleep, so he had to force himself up and hook on the strings, "The head of the strings, is it you?" ”

Since no one answered, but there was a single note that did not match on the strings, Shi Yanwen closed his eyes, let out a very soft laugh, and did not ask again, and when the song ended, all the unhappiness in his heart disappeared, the coldness gradually disappeared, and the sleepiness became stronger.

Wait for a long time.

Another person stepped into the hall, and the gorgeous purple attracted the moonlight to stop, and when he saw Shi Yanwen sitting on the ground and sleepy, he couldn't help but sigh lightly, picked up the person and put him on the bed, and untied the crown for him. The corners of Shi Yanwen's mouth still have a gentle and gentle arc, and the person who came sat quietly on the edge of the bed and watched, thinking that it was beautiful and novel, since he met this person, he had never seen him have a good night's dream, let alone a dream? Even the new scar on the face has a sense of beauty.

But he forgot that this person should not dream now.

Stretched out his hand to lift the quilt for him, and couldn't help but touch the shallow marks on his face, Shi Yanwen suddenly grabbed him, "Xian Shou," the person paused, and then put his hand gently, and was about to leave, and heard him whisper, "Gathering Soul Village." ”

The visitor hesitated and brushed the hair from his shoulder, his voice inaudible with a shallow sigh, "Sleep." ”

The power of language is so powerful, there are only two words, as if it can soothe the hesitation in my heart.

Shi Yanwen slept very deeply this night.

The second day was also the last to wake up, and the laughter of the child pierced the sky, and he opened his eyes and cleaned up.

There was only one little ghost in the middle of the night yesterday, and today he woke up again, and he pestered Su Huanzhen in the early morning and didn't let go, fortunately, Su Huanzhen didn't need to have other things to trouble at the moment, so he left them alone, Qu Shitu only watched from the side, Ye Xiaochai took Meteor Xing and Hao Yueguang to the martial arts training ground, and Shuangxiu didn't know where he was.

When Shi Yanwen stepped into the hall, Su was really instructing the two children in their postures.

"'The shelf is every day, and the kung fu is increasing day by day', the moves are unstable, the momentum is not raw, how many times have you practiced in the past half a month?"

The little fox immediately raised his hand, and his soft ears moved, "Master, the little fox is very well-behaved!" ”

This reaction was very fast, a smile flashed in Su Huanzhen's eyes, and he raised his hand and nodded on the little ghost's forehead, "What about you?" ”

"Iβ€”I'm also very well-behaved......"

So unconfident, I'm afraid I can't even believe myself, right? Shi Yanwen laughed secretly, didn't want to disturb, turned his head and walked out again.

Su Huanzhen glanced up and said to Qu Shitu, who had been leisurely for a long time, "Friend, please take them first." ”

Qu Shitu also saw the back in the distance, beckoned in response, and raised his voice sarcastically, "Go, go, there are new people who forget the old people, take pity on my hard work." ”

The two children looked at each other.

……

Shi Yanwen wanted to go to the city, originally wanted to see what the battlefield had become last night, but when he passed by the martial arts training ground, he met Shuangxiu, the two of them were sitting side by side on the roof, each holding a piece of baked cake in their hands.

The rumors of "......" original hardship are true.

Jumping on the roof, Yuan Wuxiang heard the movement and turned his eyes, very surprised, "Why are you here?" ”

Shi Yanwen didn't know why, "Then where should I be?" ”

"Su is really not waiting for you?"

"......" Shi Yanwen remembered the scene in the hall, and looked at the few people on the martial arts training ground, and smiled bitterly, "Their master and apprentice rarely get together, they must have a lot to say, why should I bother?" ”

"Excuse me...... the two glanced at each other, and asked tiredly, "You have been in the glass fairyland, you are not an outsider, why bother?" ”

A hint of loneliness flashed in Shi Yanwen's eyes, and he said with emotion, "He is a good teacher and a good father." "It's just that I'm afraid of touching the scene and making people laugh.

Yuan Wuxiang tilted his head to look at him, "Is this answering our question?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I have three children, but I only remember their faces, but I can't remember all the things they went through," Shi Yanwen leaned against the pillar on the side, "However, there is one thing that is hard to forget, but it is not a good thing. ”

This is really not a good topic, tired of harvesting heaven and Yuan Wuxiang were silent at the same time, Shi Yanwen fell into memories, thinking about miscellaneous things, it seems that that incident did have a deep impact on him.

Thinking about it, Shi Yanwen suddenly asked, "Do you know Gathering Soul Village?" ”

Soul Gathering Village.

This place is very unique and insignificant, and the Taoists have never recorded it, but it is a bit hidden from oral tradition, and the tired heaven asks, "But the Taoist branch that is hidden and cursed every ten years?" ”

A hint of surprise flashed in Shi Yanwen's eyes, and he looked at them, "You know? ”

Yuan Wuxiang nodded, "I've heard that the whereabouts of that vein are uncertain, absorb the soul to maintain vitality, and the stronger the soul, the better." The Taoist predecessors didn't like this way, but because it was a stub branch, the mana was gradually lost, and they couldn't bear to live and die, but if the original Wuxiang remembered it well, they should be extremely xenophobic, and people of the same vein were not allowed to enter, if your clues were really in that branch? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Shi Yanwen?"

"I'm sorry, I'm just distracted," he closed his eyes, and the cold feeling of the vest reappeared, and his fingertips were a little cold, "but what you just said is extremely xenophobic, is it really that serious?" ”

Tired of collecting the heavenly way, "I'm afraid that it will be too much, but I heard that the head of the string has entered to explore, but after coming out, he didn't mention a word, huh?" Tired of rescuing Tian suddenly reacted, "Since you have a friendship with the head of the string, you must have listened, didn't he mention a word?" ”

Of course, he mentioned that he was afraid that he entered the Soul Gathering Village because of himself, but he said two things, one was his sudden appearance, and the other was that he was confined to the village, but he did not mention anything "absorbing living souls to maintain vitality".

Shi Yanwen turned her back and asked casually, "What do you mean by 'absorbing souls'?" Be...... People in distress? ”

"It's likeβ€”"

"Yanwen,."

Several people were stunned, and even a few people on the martial arts training ground stopped moving, and Su really appeared a little suddenly, as if he came in a flash, and he didn't hear any footsteps, and it was just like that if he met a big enemy.

He walked up to Shi Yanwen, with a warm smile on his face, and stretched out his hand to invite, "I have something I want to discuss with you." ”

Shi Yanwen looked at him, or rather, he wanted to see if there was something else in those wise eyes. The red light on the forehead flickered silently, so gorgeous, in stark contrast to the cold face, the air was cold for some reason, all the way to freezing, and the condensed atmosphere forced people to breathe lightly.

can't see it, although Shi Yanwen also knows that he can't see it, if he really wants to deceive someone, he really won't be able to see it.

Therefore, it is not a good thing to know too much - to truly understand your grievances, to accept your decision in its entirety, and to empathize with it, so there should be no complaints.

Su Huanzhen put down his hand and looked at Shuangxiu, "What were you talking about just now?" ”

Shuangxiu's face was inexplicable, although Su was really asking, but his expression was solemn and rigorous, but it didn't seem like he wanted to listen to their answer.

Shi Yanwen felt that his eyes were a little dry, as if they had fallen into dust, so he closed them as if giving up, and opened them again after a while, moving his throat up and down, "Is it important?" ”

Su Zhen laughed, grabbed his hand and walked away, "It's very important to you and me, very important." ”

Shi Yanwen broke away from his hand and strode to the front, "I'm asking them about things, it's really good that you picked the right time." ”

"What do you inquire? Maybe Su can know. ”

"It's just a little thing to kill time."

"If it's a trivial matter, let's push it back."
