In the early morning of the next day, when Bai Taoli was still asleep, Xun Liang left the Zhiyi Pavilion.

Inside the Bamboo Pavilion.

Mulberry Hu was still in a dark blue robe, sitting on a stone bench and making tea leisurely.

Many years have passed, and the personality of the previous Sang Hu is very different from his. A lust for profit, wishing that the whole Ling Heng could be held into his hands, and a pure-hearted and less desired, and also won the hearts of the people in the world, after he became a mulberry, he did not live in the golden fat stealing, and ordered someone to plant a bamboo forest on a hill after the fat theft, and built a small wooden house in the forest.

Accompanied by the bright moon and breeze all day long, the clouds in the mountains are gorgeous and the products are bright.

I have nothing to do and wander around, and I have seen all the new things in the mountains.

Although such a way of life seems to be cut off from the outside world, it is not.

The old thing is shrewd.

"Coming?" The teacup made of jade was gently placed on the stone table by the mulberry.

"Yes." Xun Liang gradually appeared not far away.

"Black Eagle has also flown around these days and haven't seen you, I guess you went to Zhiyi Pavilion again, and...... Probably also brought important people. Sang Hu motioned for Xun Liang to sit down, as if there had never been a murderous day.

Xun Liang raised his eyebrows, and then looked at Sang Hu: "I'm just acting on orders." ”

"Yes."

Silence followed.

"You're not just so boring to come to me, aren't you?" Sang Hu spoke, Xun Liang took the initiative to find him, it was by no means idle, it was estimated that he wanted to find him to "ask for a task".

He couldn't just tell him that easily.

"You asked Black Hawk to bring me here last time, and you gave me some strange tasks, and now that strange mission has been completed, what about the other one?"

The thing that scared him at the moment was not this task, but why the baby he found sixteen years ago would be known to this Sanghu, and his reaction was beyond Xun Liang's expectations.

Sang Hu didn't seem to expect Xun Liang to say this, so he took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Xun Liang: "It's all in the letter." ”

"Thank you."

Sang Hu poured himself another cup of tea, and the fragrance of tea was accompanied by a cool breeze that filled the air.

"When you step out of Youzhu Xuan today, everything will begin to change." Sang Hu suddenly spoke.

As soon as these words came out, the wind suddenly blew in Youzhu Xuan, and the bamboo leaves on the ground were blown up by the wind, and the emerald green leaves kept shaking, making a rattling sound.

Xun Liang squinted his eyes and looked at Sang Hu.

"It's nothing, it's just windy." He took a sip of his tea, disapproving.

"Are you going to live in this Youzhu Pavilion all the time?"

"Yes."

"You're very weird." Xun Liang felt that there was "another" or "several" in addition to the two of them here, and these were not people.

"Oh? The Lord of Xun Pavilion told me what's weird? ”

"If Xun is still here, he will leave first." Xun Liang didn't want to say this, at the moment, whether this mulberry was an enemy or a friend had not yet been distinguished, so he should not be careless.

When Xun Liang left Youzhuxuan, Sang Hu curled the corners of his lips and smiled at the depths of the bamboo forest.

"Why are you so angry?" He suddenly spoke, as if he was speaking to someone hidden in the bamboo forest.

But no one came out of the depths of the bamboo forest, and there was no sound of bamboo leaves shaking.

……

Wasteland.

"Really, where can I get a living creature for the little girl." Wen Yan took advantage of Bai Taoli to sleep and went out of the Zhiyi Pavilion and came here in a leisurely manner.

The barren land is the only way to go to the Zhiyi Pavilion, this place is extremely remote, not a single grass grows, let alone any living creatures, if you want to find living creatures, you have to go through the barren land and go to the lodging land.

But Wen Yan didn't want to go, he hadn't been there for decades.

"Black cat?!" Wen Yan looked around and saw a black cat lying not far away, "It's just right, let's take it back first, and if it's cured, you can still run." ”

Wen Yan trotted over and picked up the black cat: "It's so badly injured......"

This cat...... Who is so ruthless......

Wen Yan thought about it, isn't the barren land something that can come from ordinary things, and this cat is probably not simple.

Forget it, let's take it back first, and there's still a breath.

"Tao Li, come on!" As soon as Wen Yan entered the courtyard, he called out Bai Taoli.

Bai Taoli came when she heard the sound, and saw Wen Yan holding a bloody black cat in her arms, and was startled: "This is?" ”

"Pick some locust backs." Wen Yan placed the black cat on the stone table under the tree and performed spiritual magic.

Bai Taoli held an inverted locust branch on the side, looking at the black cat on the stone table: "Where did you see it?" ”

"I saw it when I got out of Zhiyi Pavilion, Xun Liang asked me to find you a living creature, and I brought it back when I saw that this black cat was still angry." Wen Yan took the reverse locust branch, plucked the petals, put them in the stone mortar and mashed them, and used spiritual power to apply the reverse locust to the black cat's wound.

"I'll bandage it." Bai Taoli took a piece of white cloth and bandaged the black cat's wound.

"Aren't you afraid of bad luck?" Wen Yan seemed to be joking, watching Bai Taoli gently stroke the black cat with her hand.

"Then I'm not bad, don't I get angry?" Bai Taoli looked at Wen Yan and smiled, "Old man, thank you." ”

"Little girl, aren't you tangled?" Looking at Bai Taoli, Wen Yan noticed that she seemed to be different from before.

"No, whether you are dead or alive in the future, happy and sad, it is all related to yourself, what should come and what should not come, when the time comes, all of them will naturally come, and you can't stop it, why should I torture myself like this now?"

"It's best if you think like this, I think in a few days our lives will be turned upside down."

When he said this, Wen Yan meant a lot.

Bai Taoli also understood.

"Well, when Master comes back, we'll face what is going to happen next," Bai Taoli stroked the black cat, "take her with you." ”

Wen Yan nodded.

"Have you tried to mobilize your own breath lately?"

Bai Taoli nodded: "But I feel that as soon as I mobilize my breath, I can't breathe......"

She didn't know what was going on, if it was because she hadn't been poisoned last time, or if it was ......

"It's okay, when Xun Liang comes back, I'll help you find some ways, your current physical condition is a little special."

Bai Taoli gently picked up the black cat: "Old man, can I take her back to my room?" ”

Wen Yan nodded: "But it's better to be careful, she doesn't look like an ordinary cat." ”

Youzhuxuan.

Sang Hu looked at the depths of the bamboo forest quietly, as if expecting a person to come out there, but for a long time, he didn't hear a sound.

So he poured a cup of herbal tea into his mouth, and as soon as the tea entered his mouth, the bitterness overflowed in his mouth.

As long as I drink fast enough, I don't taste bitterness.

Sang Hu thought so, but he was also angry at his stupid idea.

Tea is not wine after all, and no matter how much you drink it, you can't forget the pain.

He promised him no more drinking.

"What am I doing so much for?" Sang Hu raised his dark blue long sleeves and looked at the sky and sighed.

On that day, as far as the eye could see.

Later, almost seven days later, Xun Liang appeared under the tree.

"Meow ......"

"Come here," Bai Taoli opened his hands and hugged the black cat into his arms, and raised it to take a closer look, "In the past few days of injury, it was dirty, and I didn't look carefully, but I didn't expect it to be a beautiful little black cat." ”

The black cat had a brown coat on the right side of its face, and its eyes were as bright as stars.

"Give you a name, let's call it the wood ghost, the wood ghost is Huai, and you were saved by the reverse Huai, this name couldn't be better." Bai Taoli was very excited, this was the happiest time she came here.

The black cat meowed a few times, but did not resist.

Bai Taoli came to the yard with the cat in her arms.

"Master, are you back?"

Xun Liang squinted at her: "Cat? ”

"The old man brought it back."

Xun Liang smiled, and sure enough, with the company of living creatures, she looked much more lively than before.

"Yo, I'm back!" Wen Yan walked over with a pot of tea.

Xun Liang saw that he seemed to be much haggard than before.

"What's the matter, old man?"

"It's okay, do you have any important news when you go out this time?"

Xun Liang sighed: "Naturally, there is, three days later, we will go to Luoling City." ”

Luoling City, Yi'an Building...... Bai Taoli's eyes dimmed a lot.

Xun Liang looked at Bai Taoli with some concern.

"I'm fine."

So Xun Liang's eyes fell on the cat in Bai Taoli's arms: "This cat...... Looks a little weird. ”

"Go, go, you look weird!" Wen Yan rolled her eyes at Xun Liang, "Even if it's weird, I don't think she will be hostile to us, after all, I saved my life." ”

"When I found her, she was already dying, and she was still ...... Wasteland. ”

Xun Liang was relieved now, those who died in the barren land either entered by mistake and couldn't find a way out, or they got into trouble with the Red Pavilion.

This cat is not an ordinary thing, and it may be of great use in the future to raise it, after all, breaking the demon is very affectionate and righteous.

The Demon Breaker was a strange spirit form of Ling Heng.

They are born in the form of human beings from all kinds of animals, and if they recognize the Lord and are given a name, they will be loyal to their master all their lives, and they must not betray them, and once they have two hearts, they will not enter the cycle of reincarnation.

"Tao Li, what's her name?" Xun Liang asked suddenly.

"Wood ghosts."

"Poof! Hahahaha! As soon as Wen Yan heard the word "wood ghost", he laughed, "Girl, haven't you studied with your grandfather for so many years, why are you named a ghost, does it have meaning?" ”

Bai Taoli gently touched the wood ghost's ear, and pouted unhappily, "The wood ghost is a locust tree, and she was rescued by the reverse locust flower, what's wrong with calling the wood ghost?" If you have to chew the words and taboo the words, then it is better to be unfortunate. ”

"Okay, good, the old man will make amends to you, the wood ghost is indeed a good name......" Wen Yan shook his head, very helpless.

"Wood ghosts are really good."

"But why do you say that she was saved by the Reverse Huai, isn't it up to me to cast spiritual magic......

"But old man, you used the reverse locust, if you don't have the reverse locust, no matter how much spiritual power you exert, you will be helpless, and this wood ghost will probably return to the west." Xun Liang reminded Wen Yan on the side that the reverse locust tree was watered by the peach and plum of the previous life with spiritual power, so the black cat was able to continue its life, and most of the credit should be attributed to the reverse locust.

Bai Taoli seems to understand whether he understands or not, and he didn't think so much about the name, after all, he can't call this cat "Wen Yan".

"Meow ......" the wood ghost jumped down from the arms of Bai Tao Li, and the speed was extremely fast, as if he was suddenly stunned.
