Chapter 5: Ghosts and Demons

Looking at the back in the distance, Lu Ru's heart turned a thousand times, she knew everything, and even knew that the owner of the village was different from ordinary people, otherwise, how could an ordinary mortal be like a day for twenty years, and her appearance had been stuck at the age of a young girl.

Chu Yuanyang didn't have much luggage, a short sword that was not slippery in black, a few changes of clothes, some plates and a few steamed buns used on the road, a pot of water, a map, a horse, and a book of Bliss Fu given by the owner.

With these, Lu Ru sent Zhuangzi out.

As soon as she left Zhuangzi, she lost the trace of Luru, and even the gorgeous Red Shadow Villa gradually disappeared from her sight.

Her eyes were a little red, after all, this was the place where she had lived for ten years, and she was always a little reluctant to leave suddenly.

He stopped and stood in the verdant forest for a long time, and finally turned over and jumped on the horse, whipped and shouted, and left without looking back.

Chu Yuanyang didn't know where she was going, in the vast world, the only people she was familiar with were the owner of the village and Lu Ru, and after leaving them, she was confused.

The horse went all the way forward, stopping and stopping.

Three months have passed in the blink of an eye.

The journey was safe and sound.

The scenery on the road is pleasant, the air is fresh, and the small days are not comfortable.

At dusk in July, the sky is red, the sky is full of red clouds, and the sun sets, and a thin layer of silver is faintly visible around the red glow, which is a harbinger of a storm.

Chu Yunyang led the horses, and finally found an inn and stayed.

After washing up in the guest room, she grabbed her dagger and went downstairs.

I found a clean corner in the lobby on the first floor, ordered a bowl of clear soup noodles, and ate quietly.

At this moment, the sky outside is completely dark, the wind is stronger, roaring and whistling, blowing the doors and wooden windows crackling, the sound is terrifying, there is a symbol of breaking in.

Although this inn is not big, or even simple, it is not easy to find shelter from the wind and rain in this remote town.

The wind grew stronger until a few white lights swept across the sky.

"Boom ......"

One after another.

"Whoa!"

The raindrops the size of beans splashed down one by one.

At this time, there were more and more people gathered in the lobby, including men and women, and most of them were middle-aged, all dressed as people in the rivers and lakes.

"Hey, have you heard, the Chishui River thirty miles away is haunted, and many people have died. ”

"It's not just the Chishui River, several small towns near the Chishui River have suffered, I heard that the people who died were all handsome women, and they couldn't see an inch after death, that location ...... Hey!"

"I've also heard that the evil ghost is a lustful person, and he looks obscene and obscene, and the women who are suffering are insulted by the evil ghost, and the death is really... It's miserable!"

"Lao Zhao, you have to keep an eye on your granddaughter and lock the door at night!"

"It's far away from the Chishui River! The evil spirit won't want to come here. ”

"I can't tell, but I have to be careful!"

A few people in the rivers and lakes, you say everything to me, and you have a nose and eyes, as if you have seen that evil ghost with your own eyes.

Chu Yuanyang didn't care, in her opinion, Xu was a flower thief who committed a crime, using evil ghosts as a guise to escape the pursuit of the government.

However, it sounds like this flower thief is also really vicious, not to mention ruining the innocence of other girls, and also harming people's lives.

"Girl!" a simple and upright old man in his fifties cried out with a worried face.

"Call me?" Chu Yuanyang turned his head to look left and right, pointing to himself and asked.

The old man nodded, took his eleven or twelve-year-old granddaughter by the hand, and kindly reminded: "You should be careful when you are alone outside, if there is nothing important at night, you must not open the door and go out." ”

"Thank you!" Chu Yuanyang arched his hand at the old man and thanked him sincerely.

The little girl behind the old man stepped forward, grabbed Chu Yuanyang's sleeve, and said with sincerity in worry: "Sister, you look so good-looking, I'm afraid there will be danger, otherwise, squeeze with me tonight, there are many people and some care, and the evil ghost has to think about it." ”

The little girl wore a goose-yellow over-the-knee dress, with a string of delicate little bells around her waist, and walked with a tinkling dong.

A green silk is fixed on the top of the head, tied into two small buns, and the small face is round and very cute.

A pair of large, watery eyes revealed a deep fear.

"Don't be afraid!"

Chu Yuanyang's heart warmed, and he picked up the short sword on the table and comforted: "My sister is strong in martial arts, if that thing dares to come, my sister will destroy one when she sees one, and she will destroy one when she sees two." ”

That being said, there was a faint uneasiness in her heart.

Compared to this little girl, she is really dangerous.

Regardless of her appearance or age, she is the best choice for the flower thief.

If she is unfortunate enough to be chosen, how can she, the three-legged cat kung fu that she has learned with Lu Ru, beat this flower thief who has disappeared without a trace?

"Sister......!"

The little girl still wanted to persuade.

"Girl, be careful, if something happens, scream!"

After the old man said this kindly, he dragged his granddaughter upstairs who still wanted to speak.

Chu Yuanyang nodded, she understood the kindness of this kind grandson.

Several other people in the lobby showed sympathy and pity for Chu Yuanyang.

Back in the guest room, Chu Yuanyang took out the 'Bliss Fu' from his arms and looked through it carefully.

In the past three months, she has been turning over and over this booklet, and she has memorized it well, but she still doesn't understand the mystery of it, let alone what Edgeworth has done.

"Collect its dispersion, gather for light, gather and stop thinking, from the outside to the inside, for a long time, the eyes are white, no fluctuations, at this time the intellectuality is not chaotic, that is, the slight meaning is moved to the dantian ....... ”

Chu Yuanyang's eyes were closed, his legs were cross-legged and he sat on the three-foot-wide mahogany bed, practicing according to the exercises in the booklet.

After a long time, she opened her eyes irritably, picked up the booklet and said: "If you are white for a long time, why do I think it is dark in front of you for a long time?"

"Sizzle....... ”

At this time, the black short sword on his side trembled slightly.

"Huh?" Chu Yuanyang curiously picked up the short sword and looked at it.

The dagger had followed her for ten years, and had never been so spiritually vibrating.

The dagger shook a few times, and then regained its composure.

Draw the blade of the sword and study it carefully.

The dagger was black and shiny, and the blade shone with a terrifying silver light.

The hilt of the sword is unpretentious, smooth and smooth, apparently the result of a long period of play.

After taking a closer look, he found that the dagger was no different from usual.

Xu is dazzling, a weapon, how can he move?

Chu Yuanyang shook his head and smiled, and then put the blade back into the scabbard.

As soon as he put down the shortsword and was about to continue his research on the 'Blissful Fu', the shortsword began to shake and tremble again, and the amplitude of the turmoil was very significant.

I don't know if it's her illusion, but at this moment, I feel that the temperature of the entire room is much lower.

Deserted, cool!

The snort snorted into the smell of decaying sludge, as if in a morgue.

There was something strange about the fluttering curtain.

Eerie, windy, foggy!

The torrential rain outside the window has not stopped, and it will continue to increase.

'Woo woo'.

The wind whined outside the window, whining like a disgruntled ghost in the netherworld.
