I don't know when the black mist that spreads, like silk and ribbons, surrounds them. Ru Sanshui fell treacherously like flowing smoke, and the eyes that stared at them were pitch black, without the whites of their eyes.

There was an extreme uneasiness in their hearts, just like an animal seeing a natural predator, instinctively retreating, but being enveloped in the wisps of black mist and lifted into the air.

"I just want to jump off a cliff now? It's a pity that I don't want to be so cheap for you anymore. ”

Shen Rong walked on the mountain road for an afternoon, and the soles of his shoes were almost worn out. Looking at the sun, there is only an arc left, and I know that it is even more difficult to catch people at night. The errand officer ate the Ming Dynasty's Yulu, and he didn't have his share, so he muttered a few sentences.

Halfway through his muttering, he suddenly stopped. Obviously, the moon had risen just now, and the sun had not yet set at dusk, and the sky was a scene of the sun and the moon shining together, and suddenly it was shrouded in thick clouds.

Someone shouted: "What's the matter! The sky is suddenly dark! The sun and the moon are gone!"

Everyone looked around, and sure enough, the slanting sun and the first moon disappeared in the sky.

Ruan Hongque said: "It is not the sun and the moon that are obscured by the clouds and mist, it is us. ”

Shen Rongknee looked around, in addition to the circle of people surrounding the mountain, there were other places, and strange shadows appeared one after another.

These errand servants were temporarily transferred by Ruan Hongque from the Yingzhou Yamen, and they were all hired civilian servants, not prisoners who convicted them, so it was really difficult for them to be in danger. Shen Rongknee gave up moving forward and shouted, "Draw your sword!"

There was the sound of drawing a knife everywhere, but no one retreated, and Shen Rongknee did not have the power to command.

Ruan Hongque said in a loud voice: "Retreat!" They retreated the way they came.

The crooked shadows, as they receded, seemed to be encouraged, and approached them faster. There was a scream all of them. Shen Rongknee scolded in a low voice for his bad luck, and he also drew his sword.

"Ghosts! ...... "Xiao Sanniang has come to take revenge!" ......

"Help!" ...... "There's also something in the back!" ......

In such a chaotic shout, Ruan Hongque swung his sword and slashed at a miserable white and distorted ghost face, and the ghost was shaken away by the sword wind, and gradually gathered together, and pounced on it even more hideously.

Shen Rong knees rushed forward, the ghost actually avoided the tip of the sword this time, and bit Shen Rong knee's right shoulder, in addition to the stinging pain, a cold aura was instantly transmitted to his limbs.

The strange laughter echoed in Shen Rong's ears, and he couldn't shake it off no matter how hard he tried.

Ruan Hongque swung his sword again, dispelling the other ghost, and turned around to slash the one on Shen Rong's knee and shoulder again, although this time the sword blade also easily cut through the thing, but there was resistance, it inhaled yang energy, and it was becoming stronger.

It was slashed again, its face distorted, its mouth open, and it screamed. Shen Rong took a few steps back on his knees, covered his shoulders, and his face turned pale. At the same time, more ghosts came at them.

At this time, a steady sound of music came, mellow and elegant, as if the sky was falling and the warm wind was caressing. In the chaos, it inexplicably makes people feel calm.

The ghost shadow was dispelled, and the wisps turned into invisible, and the cold yin qi gradually retreated. The moonlight was sprinkled white.

The sun had long since sunk below the horizon, but everyone could feel a sense of warmth.

The man flying lightly on the treetops, dressed in white, was bright and beautiful. He landed steadily and made a gesture towards Ruan Hongque.

Ruan Hongque also returned the salute: "Brother Jiang Heng." ”

Although Shen Rongknee didn't know this person, he still returned the salute with Ruan Hongque. Then out of curiosity, he leaned up to see the instrument that Jiang Heng had just played.

The bottom of this thing is closed, about three inches in circumference, about four inches long, and three inches in inches, with a protruding blowing hole, upturned more than an inch. It is blown horizontally, like a flute but not a flute, just to hear, although the sound is low, the twelve laws can be complete.

Shen Rongkne: "What is this?"

Jiang Heng: "Chi." ”

"Spoon? ”

Shen Rong shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and then suddenly gritted his teeth: "Hiss-what should I do with this shoulder?"

Ruan Hongque: "I don't know if the general injury medicine can solve it, may I ask Brother Jiang what his situation ......is?"

Shen Rongkne: "You blow it on me, kiss it, it's fine." ”

So Shen Rong's other shoulder was injured again, and both hands were useless.

They counted the number of people and went down the mountain with those who were not seriously injured. The rest of the people reorganized themselves and continued to surround the mountain by the moonlight.

They soon searched the top of the mountain, only to see that the men were dead on the cliff, their faces like dead vines, much like the officers who had been attacked by the walking corpses before.

Ru Sanshui saw that Shen Rong's knees were hanging weakly with both hands, and the cloth was still wrapped around one side: "What's wrong with you?"

Shen Rongkne: "The price of daring to love and hate." ”

"The face is so pale, it is because of the yang energy. Fortunately, it's not particularly serious, but it's enough for you to drink a pot, and you can lie down for at least three days when you go back. ”

Shen Rongqi said, "You also understand this?"

Ru Sanshui stretched out his arms: "Look, I'm not standing here unscathed?

Then she realized that something was wrong: "You say, 'yes'? Yes, since you were attacked, how did you get out?"

"You killed the initiator, and the ghost lost his command, so he naturally retreated, and deliberately asked something. A familiar voice came from the crowd.

Shen Rong kneeled his head and said: "Brother Jiang, what do you mean by this? The initiators are naturally those evil warlocks, but they were obviously sucked out of yang energy by the ghosts and died, presumably because they couldn't control the ghosts that did not distinguish between the enemy and me, so they got retribution." How can you say that Brother Sanshui killed him?"

The person who spoke walked out slowly, dressed in white and with a brown belt, holding a sword on his back, standing under the moonlight like a wandering fairy.

Ru Sanshui heard that his surname was Jiang, his voice was familiar, and he looked familiar. But when I looked at him in the hazy moonlight, I thought that I hadn't seen him, which was a strange feeling.

The man was not shocked, and proposed to Shen Rongkne: "You might as well ask her, why is she pretending to be a man, who is she hiding, and how does she understand yin and yang evil arts." ”

Ruan Hongque had already reacted, and the long sword was unsheathed and pointed directly at Ru Sanshui.

Shen Rongknee looked at Ru Sanshui blankly: "A woman who knows the art of yin and yang...... Early Twenties...... Sanshui ...... Sanniang?"

As soon as the three words of Xiao Sanniang came out, everyone's swords pointed at Ru Sanshui.

Ru Sanshui smiled helplessly: "None of you can stop me." ”

Even if she still has an unhealed wound on her leg now, such an ordinary person, with only one junior with cultivation, can't withstand her attack with a stick of incense.

"But you don't slaughter innocent people. Jiang Heng said calmly.

Ru Sanshui was stunned.

Jiang Heng walked towards her: "It was the idea of my brother and the Bai family to hunt you down. I looked into it myself, but I didn't think it was what they said it was. I can get them to withdraw the hunt order. Just listen to me and you'll be fine. Tell me everything that is at stake. ”

She looked at him with a smile, but seeing that he was serious and kind, she didn't make a sound.

She Ru Sanshui is still used for safety, obeying the orders of a junior of the Jiang family?

"I will protect you. ”

She suddenly widened her eyes and looked at him in disbelief: "You just ...... Say what?"

"I said, I'll protect you. ”

There was a buzz in her ears. In a trance, two faces that were not similar seemed to coincide.

At that time, the high-spirited young man also stood in front of her like this, and said: "Sister Sanshui, you are so cute, I like you very much, I will protect you in the future, if anyone bullies you, come and tell me." ”

It's just that the man is self-confident and has an innate arrogance. And the person in front of him is calm and indifferent, like a pool of cold that has no bottom visible.

He didn't notice that something was wrong with her, and said sincerely: "No matter what the purpose of the younger brother is, if he wants to use you, the Jiang family owes you." No matter what kind of person you are, I, Jiang Heng, will not abandon you. Not to mention that I think you can be trusted. ”

She was suddenly relieved, how could it be, that person had been sleeping for more than a hundred years, and now he should be a piece of loess, and his soul should be endless.
