The ghost town is a terrible night, but the day is a different scene. The pen "fun" pavilion www.biquge.info not only many famous places and historic sites in the city, but also many beautiful mountains and rivers outside the city, coinciding with the turn of summer and autumn, it is the mountain flowers that are burning, and the birds are singing in the spring.

Cheng Yao can always find something interesting and take Qinghuan to play. Every two people go out early in the morning, enjoy the day, and return to the inn before sunset.

Two or three days later, it was the fourteenth day of the seventh month. The festival is already busy in the city during the day, but once it is nightfall, the streets are still silent.

Chengyao took Qinghuan and went all the way to the north of the city. The road ahead was still shrouded in a light purple mist, and it was dark and unknowable.

The two gradually walked outside the north city gate, but saw a towering ancient tree. Before he could get closer, he had already heard a fishy stench, mixed with the faint sound of water. Closer to take a closer look, the ancient trees cover the Central Plains is a dark river flowing southwest, no more than a few feet wide, but the river is rolling waves, snakes and insects are everywhere, around the city.

Qing Huanqi said: "I've been here during the day, and there doesn't seem to be such a river." ”

Cheng Yao said: "This is the Nai River." ”

"Naihe? Is it the Nai River of Nai Ho Bridge? ”

"Yes. The river originates from the spirit realm and manifests only at night. ”

Qing Huan didn't say anything, Cheng Yao looked at her with a smile: "Are you afraid?" ”

Qing Huan shook his head: "If you don't hide suddenly, I won't be afraid." ”

His heart was soft, and it seemed that he really scared her that day. He clenched her palms even more.

"In this river, it doesn't seem to be water, what is it......" Qinghuan endured the stench and looked into the river, but he didn't dare to approach.

"It's blood."

"Ah......h

"After a while, it will be the seventh and a half months, and then the ghost door will be opened, and thousands of ghosts will come out of it." Cheng Yao said, "At this time, there is no ghost guard at the Ghost Gate, so we just took this opportunity to enter." ”

Qing Huan didn't know if he was nervous or what, so he only nodded.

Cheng Yao sat down with her by an ancient tree, and a flock of black crows flew over their heads, and gusts of wind swept from the river, carrying a fishy smell and a ghostly atmosphere.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for a faint purple light to shine behind him.

Qing Huan looked from behind the tree, but saw that there was an extra bridge on the Nai River at some point.

I only heard Cheng Yao say: "It's time for the son." ”

He took her hand and got up, still hidden behind the tree.

Peeked in, but saw a huge gate slowly emerging at the end of the bridge, which was even darker and deeper under the purple light. There is a horizontal plaque like blood rust hanging on the door, and there are three ancient seal characters written on it, which is "ghost gate".

Cheng Yao said: "This is the bridge and the ghost gate are closed, if you want to be scared for a while, close your eyes and don't look at it." ”

Qing Huan nodded lightly, but couldn't help complaining: "I really can't figure it out, what is my father doing in the ghost world if he has nothing to do." ”

Cheng Yao looked at her with a smile: "Then do you still want to look for him?" ”

"Yes." It's just two words, but it's sonorous and firm.

"Okay, then let's go and go back quickly, find Uncle Ye earlier, and strive to come back tomorrow before the ghost door closes."

"Hmm."

The two were talking, but they saw the giant door slowly open, the purple light inside the door was dazzling, but it was still dark outside the door.

When the door opened, I saw a large red lantern drifting in the night mist.

Qing Huan was frightened, but he still mustered up the courage to take a closer look, the lantern was originally in the hands of the first ghost, as if it was the appearance of the underworld, leading the way for the ghosts, and marching towards the human world. I don't know when Hades is gone, only countless ghosts rushed out of the door, scattered in all directions, and disappeared into the sky, but the ghosts inside the door were endless. There were also a few ghosts who found the living angry and rushed towards the two. Qing Huan was scared in her heart, and hurriedly buried her head, and Cheng Yao caressed her back to protect her. Before the ghosts could get closer, they realized that the man in front of them was not easy to mess with, so they quickly turned around and went elsewhere.

After a while, the ghosts in the door slowly decreased. Chengyao took Qinghuan and slowly walked towards the Nai He Bridge. The bridge deck is extremely narrow enough for one person to pass through. He stepped on the bridge first, and followed him with her hand, and for a moment he seemed to feel something, and thousands of thoughts were surging.

The two of them went to the ghost gate, but they saw that it seemed to be another world. The sky shone with a faint purple light, but it was like day. Qing Huan caught a glimpse of a clear stream bubbling inside the door that connected to the Nai River, and couldn't help but whisper to Chengyao: "Is this the same river?" Why is it so clear inside the ghost gate, and it becomes like that when it flows outside? ”

Cheng Yao said: "This is indeed the same river, but in the spiritual world it is called Lethe River, and when it flows outside, it is called Nai River. Do you see clear water? ”

What he didn't say was that the water of Lethe River can reflect people's hearts, and if the heart is clear and there are no distracting thoughts, what you see is a pool of clear water. If there are too many worries and desires, what you see is a terrible scene like the Nai River, and there will never be an end in sight.

"yes, what's wrong?" Qing Huan continued to look towards the end of Lethe, "It turns out that this is Lethe......"

Cheng Yao said: "Then do you know that the one we are walking on now is Huangquan Road." ”

Qing Huan covered his mouth in surprise, but when he saw that Cheng Yao seemed to have a smile on his face, he was relieved and said with a smile: "I can walk Huangquan Road with you, this kind of experience is really good." ”

Cheng Yao shook his head and chuckled.

Qing Huan suddenly saw countless blood-red flowers blooming on the road ahead, and the opposite bank was a continuous white, looking from afar, the red and white flowers were set against each other, very beautiful, but they had never been seen before.

Cheng Yao saw the doubt in her eyes, so he said, "These are the flowers on the other side. The red one is also called the manju sawa, and the white one is the mandala flower. Manzhu Sawa blooms in full bloom, like blood paved on the ground, it is known as the 'road of fire', is the only and last scene that ghosts can see on this long Huangquan Road. ”

Qing Huan listened to him talk about life and death, and couldn't help but feel something, and when he took a few steps closer, he found that these flowers had no leaves, so he still asked Cheng Yao.

Cheng Yao said: "Legend has it that the flower demon Manzhu, the leaf demon Shahua, the two demons love each other, but they are ordered to protect the flower on the other side." But because the flowers on the other side bloom without leaves, there are leaves without flowers, flowers and leaves never meet, and life is wrong. They met secretly and were punished by God, sent into reincarnation, and cursed to never be together, and to suffer all the hardships on earth for the rest of their lives. However, every time they die, when they smell the fragrance of flowers on the other side of the Huangquan Road, they can think of themselves in their previous lives. ”

Qing Huan couldn't help but be taken by this poignant story, and hurriedly asked, "What about after you think about it?" ”

She hoped that Manzhu and Shahua would be together and never separate after remembering their previous lives, but she heard Cheng Yao sigh: "After thinking about it, they still can't get out of the curse of reincarnation, and they will still be forced into the reincarnation well." Love is not cause and effect, fate is destined to life and death, that's what I said. ”

Cheng Yao saw that she seemed to have sadness on her face, and couldn't help laughing: "Huan'er, the legend is just a matter of listening to it, how did it become so sentimental." ”

Qing Huan came back to his senses and walked a few steps quickly to leave him behind: "How can there be." ”

"Okay, don't make fun of you, don't run anymore, there's a reincarnation well ahead." Cheng Yao dragged her back.

Qing Huan suddenly stopped.

Cheng Yao glanced at the Lechuan River again, and immediately sacrificed the flying sword, Qing Huan stepped with him, and the two gradually moved away from Lechuan.

Qing Huan looked at his feet, but saw that the various halls near the Ghost Gate Pass were very tightly distinguished, and he walked to the other end, passing countless barren grass and giant trees, but the houses and streets were just like the human world. On the contrary, there is less hustle and bustle in the human world, and it is more peaceful and peaceful.

Cheng Yao said: "The Hell Division and the Reincarnation Well are just a place on the edge of the spiritual realm, and in addition, the spiritual realm, like our human realm, is a place for spirits to live, and there is nothing strange about it. ”

"But when people die, don't they all have to be reincarnated, so how can they stay in this spiritual realm for too long? With so many houses, who are they for? ”

"Not everyone dies and is reincarnated. Some souls have been reincarnated many times, and they gradually lose the power of reincarnation, or some are tired of the Six Realms and Seven Feelings, do not want to be reincarnated again, and have not done anything evil in their lifetime, and have received the permission of the Emperor of Hades and settled in this spiritual world. ”

"Immortal Emperor, it sounds so powerful...... The people who live here are all old souls? ”

"It's funny to say that the old soul is talking." Cheng Yao smiled and said, "But it's not necessarily true, people die as ghosts, ghosts are only a small part of the spirit class, and there are many natural spirit classes, the medium is similar to ghosts, but they are not ghosts, such as Kui Ling." ”

Qing Huan couldn't help but gradually relax his mind, and the two of them flew in the direction of due north.

Qing Huan was savoring the things of the ghosts, and suddenly heard Cheng Yao say: "It's here." ”

The two of them dropped their flying swords, and saw that they were in what seemed to be a big city, surrounded by huge stones, but the construction was very regular. Qing Huan thought that the ghosts of Halloween had escaped, so he didn't see a few ghosts.

Qing Huan and Cheng Yao wandered around the streets, occasionally meeting a few ghosts, but they didn't react when they saw them, just like seeing the same kind. Cheng Yao couldn't help but praise: "Sure enough, in the big city, there are ghosts who have seen the world." ”

Qing Huan was embarrassed again.

When the two of them reached the corner of the street, Cheng Yao tried to condense the water mirror, but there was no one in the mirror, only black and red. When you want to look closely, the picture shakes slightly, and then disappears.

"Sure enough, it still doesn't work." Cheng Yao sighed lightly.

"Why not?" Qing Huan couldn't help but be surprised.

Cheng Yao said: "Looking at the situation just now, where Uncle Ye is, it is a very deep and solid enchantment, which is difficult for the outside water spirit to penetrate. But it was certain that he was in this spirit realm. ”

"Daddy can't be imprisoned, right?"

"No," said Cheng Yao, "I think he is still very self-satisfied." ”

Qing Huan really couldn't guess the reason why Ye Chen was "enjoying himself", so he only said to Cheng Yao: "Then where will this spiritual realm be, with such a strict enchantment, blocking your water spirit ......?"

Cheng Yao's heart moved, and he smiled: "Huan'er, you are so smart, let's try our luck." When he looked up, he saw an old woman on the side of the road, so Cheng Yao took a few steps forward and said to the old woman: "The girl is polite." ”

Qing Huan heard him call him like this, and he was slightly surprised in his heart, but he remembered that he had just discussed with him the theory of soul reincarnation, the old man who was dying in this life, but he was still a croaking baby in the next life. Cheng Yao called it that, and it was not wrong.

The old woman really showed a very happy look and said, "The son is polite." The voice is old, but the tone is very soft and shy, just like a girl in the world who first sees a man with a heart.

Cheng Yao said: "May I ask the girl, where is the Spirit Palace?" ”

Although Qing Huan heard of the Spirit Hall for the first time, it should be an unusual place, either enshrined in the spiritual shrine, or the residence of some important people in the city.

I didn't want the old woman to have a shocked look on her face, and said, "Childe, you, what are you doing in the Spirit Palace?" ”

was asked by her, Cheng Yao and Qing Huan both decided that there was something strange inside.

Cheng Yao said: "When the next two first arrived in your place, they wanted to meet the owner of this place. ”

Hearing him say this, the old woman seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said, "If there is nothing important, it is better not to go." ”

"Please tell me why?"

The old woman looked around and saw that there was no one around, but she still didn't dare to speak loudly, so she only lowered her voice and said, "If the son is fine, please go to the slave's house with this girl to sit." ”

Chengyao said "disturb", so he and Qinghuan followed the old woman into a low room on the side of the road.

The mattress in the room is complete, the table and chairs are complete, except for the lack of pots and stoves, it is the same as the world.

The old woman carefully covered the door, invited them to sit at the table, and sat down herself and said to the two: "Do you know why our secluded capital city is so empty?" ”

Qing Huan saw that she didn't touch the ground, floating back and forth, but there was no fear in her heart, and she couldn't help but wonder: "Today, the ghost door is wide open, didn't a lot of ghosts run out?" ”

The old woman smiled and said, "Those who run to the human world are some new ghosts. Most of the people living in this secluded capital city are old ghosts, and they have no nostalgia for the world anymore. ”

"Why is that?"

"This matter has to start from more than 400 years ago...... the old woman's eyes seemed to appear in the past, "our secluded capital city was originally peaceful and peaceful, and a kind of white grass was abundant outside the city, and the tea made from this is famous in the spiritual world, and the residents in the city mostly rely on tea making to live." In the heyday, the ghosts lived in peace, and the city was full of merchants, and I also followed everyone to do some small business......"

The old woman shook her head and sighed: "It's just that this white grass didn't exist four hundred years ago. ”

"Ah, why?"

"Four hundred years ago, the Emperor of the Underworld suddenly sent a new city lord, and soon after the new city lord arrived in the city, he ordered all the white grass outside the city to be cut off and destroyed. And the old city lord, who was originally kind, also disappeared soon after, and some people say that he was scattered by the new city lord. ”

"Then, doesn't the Emperor of Hades know about these things?"

The old woman shook her head and said, "Destroying Bai Pingcao is not a big deal for the Hades Emperor, and the disappearance of the old city lord is just speculation. Since the new city lord was personally appointed by the Emperor of the Underworld, he was naturally deeply trusted. ”

"So, what about later?"

"Later......" the old woman sighed lightly, "If this is the case, the citizens of my Youdu City will not decrease day by day, but the rule of this new city is strict, and in the black prison of the Spirit Palace, there are only a few people who have been imprisoned in the past four hundred years. ”

Qing Huan became more and more puzzled: "There are few people in Guan, doesn't it mean that he is benevolent?" ”

The old woman shook her head and said, "The girl doesn't know anything. Whenever there is a slight mistake, her soul is directly shattered by her, where is there any need to be locked in prison. ”

Qing Huan's complexion changed slightly.

The old woman said: "Therefore, the people in the secluded capital have gone elsewhere, and only those like us who have lived for a long time and are reluctant to leave their homeland will still stay in this city." The Lord of the New City has always been moody, and if you lose the Spirit Temple by recklessness, you don't know if you will have the life to come back. ”

Cheng Yao didn't say anything just now, and when she said at this time, she got up and saluted: "Thank you girl, it's just that the two of us have important things, but we must go to the Spirit Palace." He had just heard about the city lord's temperament, and thought that if Ye Chen went to the Spirit Palace, he was afraid that it would be really difficult to get out, so he insisted on going to the Spirit Hall to find out.

Cheng Yao smiled indifferently: "The girl doesn't have to worry about it. Just show us the way, save us like headless flies. ”

Seeing that he insisted, the old woman looked Qinghuan up and down for a long time, and sighed: "Okay, then the slave family will take you there personally." Last time, there was such a young man who came and insisted on inquiring about the Spirit Temple, but the slave family couldn't dissuade him, and the slave family took him there, but he didn't see it until now...... If you are unfortunate enough to be killed, you will come here with him, and be a companion to the slave family......" and went out the door.

Qing Huan's eyes showed shock. Cheng Yao also said urgently for the first time: "But I don't know what that young man looks like?" ”

The old woman looked back, recalled for a moment, and said: "It seems that you are only about the same age as Gongzi, and you are very good-looking, but the most noticeable thing is the aqua blue long sword on his waist, which is not a vulgar thing at first glance......"

The two glanced at each other, and they were absolutely sure that it was Ye Chen. I didn't expect it to be crooked. Immediately, the old woman led the way and went out of the door.

Not only is the city huge, but the roads are very complicated. Often, the buildings that look right in front of you take several detours to reach. It is inconvenient for Edgeworth to attract attention in the city, and if there is no one to attract it, I am afraid that it is very easy to get lost in it. This time, there was an old woman leading the way, which saved a lot of trouble.

After a few bends, you will see a magnificent building, but it is beautiful. As far as the eye can see, it seems to be located in the center of the secluded capital city. I also saw a few stalls along the way, but I couldn't see a single figure here, and the whole street seemed very empty.

The old woman stopped in front of the long steps and whispered to the two: "Two, the slave family will send you here." ”

Cheng Yao and Qing Huan thanked her and said goodbye to her, and walked up the steps.

Gradually, at the end of the long staircase, the two of them held back their smiles and listened attentively. Previously, the water mirror could still detect Ye Chen's approximate location, and he thought that he was fine.

Cheng Yao raised his sleeve and pushed it gently, and the door opened. I saw that it was pitch black inside the door, and the light beam outside couldn't shine at all. Qing Huan followed Chengyao and cautiously crossed the threshold, and the gate suddenly closed by itself. The two of them immediately plunged into endless darkness. Qing Huan's heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

"Don't be afraid." In the dark, he whispered softly in her ear, his gentle breath tickling her earlobes and side neck.

Don't be afraid – it's such a simple word. But it seems to have the most wonderful power to soothe people's hearts. because he is the one who speaks.

She held his hand tightly, and suddenly felt infinite peace of mind and calm.

Cheng Yao said loudly into the darkness: "In the lower palace Cheng Yao, when I first arrived at your side, I came to meet you, and I also asked the city lord to show up to meet me. ”

There was no movement for a long time.

Cheng Yao approached Qinghuan and laughed softly: "The master doesn't want to see guests, it seems that we can only take care of ourselves." ”

Infected by his brisk tone, Qing Huan couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay." ”

The two walked in the darkness with their hands, and Cheng Yao took Qinghuan around, no different from other places. Qing Huan followed his footsteps, but did not encounter any obstacles, only walked with him with confidence, but felt that there was darkness everywhere.

After a long time, Chengyao stopped, and a cloud of fluorescence ignited faintly on his fingertips, which roughly illuminated his surroundings.

Cheng Yao said: "Half of the ghost is gone, it is in vain for me to think about it." ”

Qing Huan chuckled and raised his eyes, seeing that the place they were in seemed to be very empty, but they were still indoors.

Cheng Yao took her close to the root of the wall, but Qing Huan was terrified to see that the wall was full of blood red, and he didn't know if it was really bloodstained.

The city is slightly closed, and in the sea of gods, the surrounding scenes are clearly emerging. On top of the four walls, there were many bloody spells. I couldn't help but whisper: "This city lord of the secluded capital has a really violent temperament......

With fluorescence, Qing Huan stared at his face with bated breath.

After a while, Cheng Yao finally opened his eyes and said, "Through this magic circle, it should be a black prison......

"Circle? Black Prison? Qing Huan didn't know why.

Cheng Yao nodded lightly: "Since this city lord refuses to show up, how about we joke with him?" ”

As he spoke, he closed his eyes again, and his handprints were knotted in his sleeves.

Qing Huan suddenly saw a dazzling red glow on the walls around her, and she was slightly stunned, and Cheng Yao had already taken her hand and swept into the room. The originally empty ground suddenly gathered intricate and unidentified lines, and after a moment, the light faded, leaving only a crack, as if there were stone steps extending downward, like the entrance to hell. Qing Huan felt in his heart, aren't they already in hell? But she was not afraid.

only heard Cheng Yao's voice "go", and escorted her downward.

The stone steps spiraled as if they were leading deep underground, but there seemed to be air flowing within them. After a little further walking, a few points of light could be faintly seen, and Cheng Yao extinguished the brilliance of his fingertips.

The so-called black prison does not really mean that there is no light, but that once you are locked up, it is difficult to see the light of day again. Cheng Yao and Qing Huan walked down the spiral staircase step by step, and there were torches on the stone wall every other section of the road, but the firelight was a strange purple, causing everything around to be shrouded in purple light. There was a strange smell in the air, like being in a cemetery. As we go deeper, the smell gets stronger.

Finally down to the bottom. I saw that the four walls were full of prisons, but as the old woman in the secluded capital city said before, there was no ghost. Cheng Yao noticed a faint passage ahead, so he went forward with Qing Huan.

Suddenly, I heard several sharp screams in front of me, intermingling: "My lord! ”

"Your Excellency!"

Qing Huan was taken aback in his heart, but he finally found a voice here, and he was relieved in his heart.

Cheng Yao took a few steps forward, but saw ghosts in the prison. On closer inspection, it turned out that there were only five or six ghosts being held in the same prison, and it was difficult to distinguish between the overlapping ghosts.

Several ghosts seemed to be taken aback when they saw him, but one of them cried out indoors: "My lord, we have been locked up here for hundreds of years, please let us out, even if we are scattered, it is better than such a dark eternal prisoner." ”

Cheng Yao said: "What sins have you all committed?" ”

The ghost cried and said, "It's been a long time, and even you, Lord Sidian, have forgotten the sins we committed, and I've been imprisoned here since I accidentally complained a few words about the city lord while chatting with others in the city. Some of them were making noise near the temple, some were fighting and fighting, and the worst of all was stealing from the neighborhood. But since the last of us was imprisoned, no one has been in this black cell......"

For a while, the whole prison was crying, and it was very terrifying.

"These hundreds of years, even if it is atonement, we should have redeemed it...... Lord Priest, you, have been appointed by the Lord of the Castle to judge us? ”

Cheng Yao said: "I'm not ......"

I heard the ghost immediately cry: "Please ask for the grace of the city lord on our behalf, instead of falling into darkness forever, it is better to scatter our souls directly......"

"Okay, then it will be done for you." In the darkness, there was a sudden female voice, which was the direction of the spiral staircase that Cheng Yao and Qing Huan had just come down.

Immediately after that, a black dress swept like light and shadow, and it was worthy of pounce on the ghosts, but somehow it penetrated the prison and strangled the crybaby's throat with just a raised hand.

Cheng Yao suddenly made a move.

The figure was like electricity, as if teleporting into a prison, and with a flick of his sleeve, he took a few steps away from the black shadow.

Qing Huan only saw clearly at this time that the person who came was a woman in black, but her face seemed to be extremely charming.

The group of ghosts had already trembled and knelt down: "City Lord......"

The woman in black snorted coldly, but she didn't look at them, and only said to Cheng Yao: "Who should I be, I can break through my blood killing array so easily, and there are really two hits under my hand." ”

Cheng Yao said lightly: "Pass the prize." ”

The woman in black said coldly: "Since you have the ability to force me to meet, you might as well tell me what the hell is going on." ”

Cheng Yao was about to speak, but the woman suddenly stopped him: "This place is dark, not a place to speak, so you go up with me first." ”

Cheng Yao said: "The city lord is slow. ”

The woman in black looked up at him and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Cheng Yao said: "Since these ghosts have been imprisoned here for hundreds of years, they should be atoned for their great sins. And it was only below that I heard that they didn't seem to be guilty of any great sin. ”

Qing Huan thought that the woman in black was about to get angry, so she couldn't help but secretly press the Fanghua sword on her waist.

I didn't want the woman in black to smile instead: "You have a lot of meaning, you don't care about yourself first, but you are concerned about the safety of others, but you don't know whether you are confident or conceited?" ”

Cheng Yao also smiled: "What does the city lord think? ”

The woman in black stared at him for a moment, and the smile on her face grew. Suddenly, he stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, only to see a faint purple light appear above the prison pillar, and then dissipate again.

Cheng Yao bowed his head and said to the group of ghosts: "Let's go, don't wait for the city lord to change his mind." ”

The ghosts had just realized that the barrier between the prisons had disappeared, and they all trembled and kowtowed as they stumbled out of the black prison.

The woman in black smiled, "Are you still satisfied?" ”

Cheng Yao said: "Thank you City Lord." ”

"Then let me come."

Cheng Yao said "yes", and carried Qinghuan up with her.

The woman turned around, glanced at the hands they were clasping, and then swept her gaze over their faces. For a moment, Qing Huan felt as if she could see through her thoughts, but fortunately, she was now only interested in wanting to know if Ye Chen was here, and she didn't have too many complicated thoughts.

At this time, the lights in the spiritual hall were already lit, but it was a miserable white fire, and Qing Huan walked all the way, and couldn't help but gasp. Seeing that there were black and red decorations everywhere, like blood scarlet, like coffin veils, it was no wonder that the inhabitants of the outside were afraid, even in her opinion, they felt terrified and terrifying.

The three of them lingered for a long time, and the woman finally led them to a temple. The main hall is empty, but the top is a high platform, and a bed is installed. On either side are several seats.

The woman sat on the top of herself, leaned on the beauty couch, and tilted her body to look at the two. Suddenly raised his hand and moved lightly, Qing Huan had already fainted in Cheng Yao's arms.

The woman said, "I thought you would be a little guarded, but that's just the case." ”

Cheng Yao said: "Why should I be on guard? ”

"Don't you love this little girl very much?"

"So it's even more important to let her sleep, so as not to see some unbearable scenes."

The woman giggled, "What's the unbearable scene? ”

Cheng Yao didn't answer, only locked her figure with his gaze.

The woman suddenly smiled again: "What are you thinking?" ”

I don't want Cheng Yao to smile and say, "I'm thinking if you can sit comfortably?" ”

"You're really interesting, I haven't seen such an interesting person for a long time," the woman laughed, "I wonder if I'm sitting comfortably, why don't you come up and sit together?" ”

"Okay." Cheng Yao responded and placed Qing Huan on a chair next to him, and he walked towards the woman. He didn't walk fast, but step by step, he was very calm, and he couldn't see any expression on his face, he only looked straight at the people on the high platform.

The woman in black suddenly felt that such a man was something that all women in this world could not refuse, so she allowed him to go straight to her and hook her chin lightly.

On the couch, the city lord of the secluded capital watched the young man in front of him gradually approaching.

She looked at his handsome eyes, which seemed to be full of tenderness and nothingness, but no matter what, she couldn't bear to push him away.

The boy chuckled suddenly, and from such a close distance, locked her eyes.

His fingers caressed her chin, so cool that the fingertips exuded a bone-piercing coldness.

How many years has she not felt warm or cold?

Heating?!

The woman woke up and was eager to push the young man in front of her away, but found that she couldn't exert her strength.

Cheng Yao withdrew his fingers, put them next to his mouth and gently blew his nails, took a few steps back, and looked at the woman with a smile.

The woman in black said angrily, "What are you going to do? ”

The behavior of this person in front of her really made her guess.

Cheng Yao grimaced, and said lightly: "Where is Ye Chen?" ”

"What Ye Chen?"

"I really don't know whether to live or die......," Cheng Yao sighed, "I knew that you would not tell the truth, and now that your life and death are in my hands, you are not afraid that I will be like you, just raise my hand, and shatter your soul?" ”

The woman in black snorted, "I don't know, I don't know, even if you kill me." ”

"That's it......" Cheng Yao's eyes narrowed slightly, "That can only kill you, but take a little more effort and look elsewhere for ......" Such an unbearable scene, it is indeed better not to let Huan'er see it.

Qing Huan slowly opened his eyes and found that he was in Cheng Yao's gentle embrace, and he didn't know when he fell asleep. looked around, but did not see the woman in black.

"Huan'er, are you awake?" Overhead, Cheng Yao's soft voice sounded.

"Huh?" Qing Huan was still a little confused, "I'm just now, why did I suddenly fall asleep?" ”

Cheng Yao didn't answer, only said, "I have found where Uncle Ye is." ”

"Huh? Where's Daddy? Qing Huan immediately got up from his arms, his legs and feet were sore, but he almost fell.

"Don't worry, Uncle Ye, he's just asleep......"

Chengyao hugged Qinghuan and slowly walked to the end of the corridor, as if there was no way. Cheng Yao suddenly tore off the black veil, leaned upward, and found a mechanism where the original gauze tent was hanging. It's strange that he couldn't find it before, he only thought that Ye Chen was imprisoned in the spell, and he couldn't feel the fluctuation of spiritual power here, so he was carelessly skipped by him.

Cheng Yao gently pressed the mechanism, and the originally intact wall suddenly opened like a door, but inside was a beautifully arranged wing room. The spirit hall is all terrifying black and red, but this room is full of light and elegant colors and warm decoration.

Walking inside, Qing Huan suddenly felt that his heartstrings, which had been tense before, relaxed slightly. The color difference with such a strong conflict is really uncomfortable to watch for a long time.

The two of them crossed a screen and continued inside, and Qing Huan was surprised to find that behind the screen was a deeper corridor, and on both sides of the corridor were many rooms.

Qing Huan pushed open a door at will, and found that there were still three pillars of incense burning in the room, and the bed curtain was faintly windless. When I looked at the bed, I was shocked to see that it was a translucent ghost.

Qing Huan was dumbfounded, and squeezed out a complete sentence for a long time: "Ghost, too, sleep?" ”

Cheng Yao extinguished the fragrance on the case, suddenly took out a small bottle from his arms, opened the mouth of the bottle, and sprinkled a few drops on the ghost. Qing Huan didn't understand what he meant, but he saw the ghost on the bed waking up slowly.

In this way, they went to several other rooms, the furnishings were basically the same as the first room, there were people or ghosts on the beds, Cheng Yao did one by one, first extinguished the fragrance, and then slightly inclined the bottle mouth, and woke up or people or ghosts were grateful to the two of them, and immediately fled as if they were flying without asking the reason.

Until the last room at the end of the corridor, Qing Huan opened the veil tent, but saw a person lying inside, his face was like a crown of jade, and his eyebrows were like distant mountains, it was Ye Chen.

"Daddy!" Qing Huan immediately lay on Ye Chen's body.

She hadn't had the heart to look at the expressions on other people's faces before, but at this time, she saw that although Ye Chen was sleeping, there was a comfortable and happy look on her face.

Turning around, he saw that Cheng Yao had already extinguished the incense pillar, and dipped his index finger in a few points of the bottle and wiped it on Ye Chen's eyebrows, instead of pouring it casually like before. Qing Huan saw that Ye Chen's eyebrows were red, as if they were bloodstains, and couldn't help asking, "What's in this bottle?" ”

"It's the blood of the city lord of the hidden capital."

"Huh?" Qing Huan covered his mouth, "Xiao Yao, what the hell is going on?" ”

In the Lanzhi Valley, the forest is deep and dense, the scenery is quiet, and the cool breeze blows in gusts, with a little green leaves and the fragrance of plants and trees.

The teenagers sat together, but they had no intention of enjoying the beautiful scenery of the four fields, and even the birdsong on the branches made them feel extremely upset.

"It's been so long, and I'm still so clueless, but what should I do?" Lonely Stream leaned weakly against the trunk of the tree, and his brows were gloomy.

Since they came out of the Floating Cloud Realm, no one has explained to them why Donghuang Xiang wants to transform into Yingchuan, and only ordered them to stay in the Lanzhi Valley in the northeast of the country.

Drinking Qiufeng seemed to be very embarrassed, and said, "Why don't you go back first?" ”

"Where." Yun Xiao pressed his hand on his shoulder, "We just wait for this matter to be finished and go back with you." ”

After a few days of getting along, they actually fell in love with the young master of Lanzhi Valley.

"That's it," Lonely Ryu sat up, "I'm just whining, but I don't mean to be impatient, and if you want to say that, it's too outward." ”

Drinking Qiufeng looked at him, his eyes showing gratitude.

Since his parents had a hard fight half a year ago, and then explained to the disciples of the valley that they were going to leave for a while, they never came back. But immediately afterwards, the disciples of the valley disappeared one after another, which made the people of the valley panic, and they had to recall him, the young master. However, after he came back, it was useless, every ten days and a half months, a disciple would disappear from the mountain, and the items in the room were full of swords, and no one else heard any sound, just like suddenly evaporating from the world.

Drinking the autumn wind barely stabilized everyone from escaping the mountain gate, but he slowly couldn't hold on. I don't know where his damn daddy has gone. I really couldn't hold on, so I had to repair the book and go to the three gods of the master's sect.

Drinking Qiufeng's face was flushed, but he didn't hide it: "The family is ugly, the family is ugly......"

Silent Stream and Yunxiao didn't understand what it meant.

"The reason why my father and mother fought was because my father had an affair with a female disciple...... and about that female disciple, it was only known that it was his father's newly adopted apprentice, and everyone knew very little.

The three of them were talking, but they saw one of them running up panting along the mountain road, shouting as they ran: "Oh no, young master, another disciple is missing-"

What is missing is the master, that is, Siqi, the personal disciple of his father.

Unlike others, Siqi is an orphan adopted by the head of the family since childhood. Lonely Liu remembers this person, and when he smiles, he always shows two tiger teeth, and he has a great appetite for him. But now, this guy who loves to laugh is gone.

The sword was still there in the room, and the mattress was neat, but it was like a night without returning, almost the same as when the other disciples disappeared.

Lonely Stream really couldn't laugh, if he just listened to the autumn breeze before, he didn't feel much, but now, it was a friend who used to joke together, a living person, who disappeared from under his nose. This was also the first time in the month that he had seen a disciple disappear. He suddenly felt as if a hole had been broken in his heart, and a lot of things that had been overflowing flowed out, and the cold wind poured straight in.

Overnight, a green stubble grew on the lonely chin, and the whole person seemed to be a lot haggard. It doesn't seem to be the first time, he faces life and death, but he feels very powerless.

And drinking the autumn breeze is obviously more sad than him.

Every time someone disappears for no reason, Drinking Autumn Wind feels that there is a fire in his heart, which does not burn others, but threatens to burn himself to ashes. He could only watch the tragedy continue to happen, but there was nothing he could do. He even hated himself, why should he joke with the lives of his disciples in the valley. Life or cheek, which is more important? If he could have asked his master for help earlier, if he had dismissed the disciples on the mountain earlier, without having to take into account the centuries-old foundation of Lan Zhi Valley? However, it was too late, and Siqi's life and death were already uncertain. No, maybe it's not too late!

As soon as the drinkable autumn wind made a move, he collided with a person, and the man trembled his voice and said to him: "Young master, the master, the head is back!" ”

came back with his father who drank the autumn wind, and the female disciple.

However, at this time, the face of drinking frost and cold was very embarrassed, and with the female disciple, he ran into the mountain gate as if he was fleeing, and as soon as he entered the door, he was busy shouting: "Close the door, close the door, and set up the Nine Heavens Liberation Spirit Array!" ”

Drinking Qiufeng shouted angrily at his father: "Where did you die? ”

Seeing that his father was only concerned about himself in a panic, but he didn't hear his words, he was even more indignant, and went up and smashed his father on the shoulder: "What about my mother? What about Siqi? What about so many of your disciples?! ”

"Fuck off, bunny!" Drinking frost and cold, he suddenly kicked him away. Drinking the autumn wind was unguarded and fell to the ground. He only came back to his senses at this time, is the man in front of him still his father?

The father in his memory always looks high, although he also disliked his father's sanctimoniousness, but it is undeniable that his father Yu Danzhi is indeed very talented, but fame and fortune are too heavy. But in any case, his father is a gentleman in front of people, and he never speaks harshly to him. But now, his father not only exploded into foul language, but also kicked him away without thinking? Looking at his father's appearance again, he only felt that he was a completely different person. Not only did he look frightened and at a loss, he didn't look like he was as advanced as before, but there was a faint purple aura between his eyebrows, like a demon.

The disciples were a little frightened, but they were afraid of the prestige of the master, so they had to arrange the formation according to their words.

Drinking the autumn wind still fell to the ground, but Yun Xiao had already helped him up, and only whispered to him: "Don't worry, wait and see what happens." ”

Drinking the autumn wind followed him to the back of the room, but saw that the lonely stream was also there. Drinking the autumn breeze is a little warm in the heart, knowing that Yunxiao seems to be cold, and the lonely stream seems to be heartless, but in fact, the two of them are both friendly.

The three of them were hidden in the room, there was a window facing the mountain gate, and they could see that Drinking Frost was tossing with a group of disciples, but they didn't see the female disciple, and they didn't know where to hide. But they don't know what made them so frightened.

The night is getting dark, and the moon is hanging high. Drinking frost and cold became more and more like a great enemy, and he kept looking overhead, making the disciples also suspicious. was swept away by the fierce gaze of the master, but he didn't dare to move, and hurriedly formed a formation.

Yun Xiao suddenly said to the drinking autumn wind: "Nine Heavens Spirit Array, what is it?" ”

Drinking Qiufeng was also stunned: "It's my father's own formation, specially used to fight, demons and monsters......"

"Demons and monsters?"

"Yes, but also to people. But it's mostly against ghosts. ”

Lonely Liu looked at the full moon in the mountains, and his heart suddenly moved.

The three of them glanced at each other, and they all felt that there was a hidden connection, but they couldn't say why. And the biggest doubt is where the mother who drank the autumn wind went, and where did so many missing disciples go.

Some of the disciples who formed at the mountain gate were already sleepy, but cold sweat was already flowing from their foreheads, their robes were almost soaked, and the night breeze made him not feel a trace of coolness, but only felt a burst of calmness.

There was a hoarse cry, and the frost and cold were like a frightened bird. And when he realized that it was nothing more than a crow passing over his head, he didn't know how many cold sweats had come out.

But, crows? He is like a pure mountain to the place of cultivation, when has there been a crow?

In this way, he was even more busy asking the disciples to set up a battle, which woke up the disciples from sleep.

And what should come will come eventually.

As we approached, the mountains suddenly became dark. The golden iron was solemn, and the disciples all raised their long swords in their hands, ready to wait. The full moon of the frost and cold hope was obscured by dark clouds at some point, so he ordered someone to bring torches to illuminate the mountain gate.

Suddenly, a gust of wind swept in, and more than a dozen torches were extinguished together. Accompanied by the woman's mournful laughter, everyone felt frightened, and even the four people in the room felt palpitations when they heard it.

In the darkness, an object was thrown to the ground.

The moment when you can't see your fingers is always very difficult, everyone feels that the back of the neck is cold, the hair on the whole body is upside down, the yin wind blows again, and many people can't help but shudder. However, the wind finally blew away the dark clouds and cast a miserable white moonlight. Before others could see it clearly, Drinking Frost and Cold had already exclaimed: "Xiaofu! ”

Xiaofu is the nickname of the female disciple who had an affair with him. But at this moment, the charming girl named Xiaofu had turned into a corpse and fell to the ground, lifeless. Reflecting the moonlight, the body swelled like a dead fish.

Everyone felt a chill in their hearts, but they were shocked and angry when they saw the frost and cold, and shouted at the night sky: "You slut! ”

Fang Cai was only shocked by the corpse on the ground, and all the disciples hurriedly looked into the air together, and sure enough, they saw a woman in red floating faintly above their heads, reflecting the firelight, only to see her black hair dancing wildly, her face hideous, and they couldn't help but be shocked.

Drinking Frost and Cold shouted angrily: "Nine Heavens Liberation Spirit Array!" ”

All the disciples listened to his order, their long swords danced in unison, their footsteps flew, and they all attacked the woman in red.

The woman in red only flew in the air, laughing wildly, and her voice was terrible and ugly, making people jump with bruises on her forehead. Seeing that everyone was besieging, he was not panicked, as if he was not dying, he let many long swords pierce his body, and as soon as he raised his hand, he pushed everyone to the ground.

Seeing countless long swords passing straight through her body, but there was no sense of flesh and blood, a disciple exclaimed in a trembling voice: "This is ...... Ghost! ”

But it only caused a more eerie laughter from the female ghost, and she approached towards Frost Cold, and behind her, a row of blood marks appeared out of thin air.

Seeing that the Nine Heavens Spirit Relief Array was vulnerable in front of her, Drinking Frost Han trembled and retreated, and ordered: "Join the Tiangang Serial Array again!" ”

As soon as a few disciples got up from the ground with the boldness, the female ghost had already stretched out her claws and swept to the door in front of them, twisting the necks of the disciples alive, and a large handful of blood flew out from the cavity.

said that it was too late, it was just a moment, and the female ghost in red took action to solve a few young disciples, and then reached out again and grabbed the door of the frost and cold face. Drinking frost and cold was so shocked that he seemed to be stuck to the ground and couldn't move, and he was slapped by a female ghost and vomited blood.

The female ghost was about to attack again, and Yun Xiao and the three of them had already swept out like lightning, but they could only stop her for a moment, and a few went back and forth, although they did not die, but they were all seriously injured.

The female ghost was in a frenzy at this time, and she just wanted to tear the frost and cold apart. Raising his claws, he took out the heart of Frost Drink.

At the critical moment, Drinking Autumn Wind suddenly used his body as a shield to block in front of Drinking Frost.

The strong wind hit, but the female ghost suddenly stopped at the door in front of him.

Drinking Qiufeng vomited a mouthful of blood and looked at her. Although the female ghost's face is rolled with flesh and skin, the eyes are ......

Drinking Qiufeng, he couldn't help but lose his voice and said: "Mother?!" ”

The female ghost's eyes were also confused, but this look only flashed, and she came back to open the autumn wind, and only raised her claws to grab the door of Rusumian, but she swore not to give up if she didn't take his life.

Yun Xiao and the others all fell to the ground, their injuries were light or severe, covering their hearts and vomiting blood. Seeing that the frost and cold life were about to end, my heart was anxious, and I was really powerless.

Suddenly, a few bits of light swept through the sky, and one of them was particularly fast, just before the female ghost grabbed Frost Drink's throat, and opened her claws.

"Haruka!"

"Uncle Ye!"

The people on the ground were suddenly surprised and delighted, and their hearts were relieved, and they fell straight backwards.

"Xiaoliu!" There was an exclamation, but Qinghuan arrived.

Cheng Yao also looked at the lonely stream, and the blue mangs at his fingertips quickly condensed, protecting the heart of the lonely stream, and said to Qing Huan: "It's okay, it's just fainted." I'll wake up in a while. ”

Qing Huan nodded, and Fu and Cheng Yao looked at the rest of the people.

The red-clothed female ghost had long hair flying, and said viciously to Ye Chen: "Why do you mess with me!" ”

"Mother's ......" listened to her hoarse voice in the autumn wind, and it was no longer like the past, and tears couldn't help but shed in her eyes.

The female ghost only tilted her head and glared at him, as if she didn't know him, and she was dazed for a moment.

Ye Chen said solemnly: "No matter who it is, they don't have the right to easily take the lives of others. What's more, these disciples are innocent at all. ”

No one has the right to take the life of another person easily......

The female ghost in red suddenly had a trance look on her face, why did these words feel so familiar?

Ye Chen said: "I'll give you another chance." Get out of here, or I'll beat you to pieces. ”

The ghost in red grimace disappeared in confusion, and then showed a hideous description, and said viciously: "If you want to fight, you will fight, and don't talk about it!" "Immediately attack Ye Chen.

Ye Chen aimed to hold her instead of killing her, and the female ghost in red was very cunning, and from time to time used the body of Lan Zhigu's disciple as a meat shield, Ye Chen was restrained everywhere, and for a while, the red and white shadows were fighting back and forth. Drinking Qiufeng wanted to stop him, but he was seriously injured, and even if he was not injured, he had no way to do it. Suddenly the wood and stones flew sideways above the mountain gate, and the grass and trees were broken.

The female ghost in red suddenly paused.

"It's ...... Tatsu Sword? She whispered.

Ye Chen used his fingers as a sword, instantly piercing her eyebrows, and a little blush slowly came out. The female ghost in red didn't fight back, only muttered in place. Ye Chen saw that she was fierce and confused, so he immediately stopped and said: "I know that your nature is not so vicious, what kind of mental obstacle forced you to come here, it is better to let it go." ”

The female ghost in red was more and more shocked when she heard this, who was she who had said something similar?

The memories of her life suddenly poured back into the Divine Sea like a tide, and the stinging pain between her eyebrows gradually recalled her divine sense, making her can't help but whisper to Ye Chen: "You are...... Master? (To be continued.) )
