Chapter 1 Xuanxi changes hands

Among the mustard seeds in Sumeru, there should be no joys and sorrows.

This ancient saying has been passed down to this day and has been interpreted in many ways, if there is no joy and sorrow, where is the true love of the world?

In the middle of the night in early summer, after a day of depression, people began to fall asleep gradually with all kinds of emotions that could not be resolved in their minds.

However, the boundary between reality and dreams has never been blurred, and when to dream and when to wake up is never under my control, and there seems to be a pattern in the darkness.

In the dead of night, when the real world tends to be calm and peaceful, the world in the dream quietly wakes up.

In the middle of the moon, Zou Qing walked alone on the cold streets at night, and the Xuanxi mirror hidden in his arms kept emitting a faint blue light. Xuan Xijing's reaction was already the third day, but Zou Qing still hadn't noticed anything suspicious around him.

"Alas, let's divide some old friends" Zou Qing snorted, sighed and said to himself, and touched the cold body of the Xuanxi mirror with his hand.

According to Master Zou Qing, the Xuanxi Mirror only emits this kind of blue light when it feels dangerous. The master has been chasing dreams and punishing dreams all his life, until in the end, he did not die of a dream but was able to die peacefully on the hospital bed, largely because of this characteristic of Xuan Xijing, which allowed him to feel the arrival of danger and prepare in advance.

But Zou Qing carefully inspected the neighborhood for three consecutive days, but did not find anything abnormal. I don't know if it's because I can't cooperate well with Xuan Xijing, or if my Taoism is too shallow.

He finally looked around the cold street and walked into the bar.

There were not many customers in the warm bar, and the boss saw Zou Qing come in and greeted him warmly, saying, "Xiaoqing is here?"

"Big brother, don't always scream Xiaoqing, others still think that you are screaming the one that can turn into a snake!" Zou Qing sat on the high chair in front of the bar and said to the boss.

The owner is about forty years old, and has been running a bar here for some years, and it is said that this person was very competitive when he was young, and he used to be a figure that no one dared to mess with on this street, but then something happened and he had to hide here and open a small bar. After many years, his ruffianism has not faded, so his bar name is very domineering, called "Killing God", in his own words this is a pun, on the one hand, he is talking about his former glory, on the other hand, the meaning is: wine can kill hearts.

"If you were that Xiaoqing, I would be Xu Xian, hehe!" said the bar owner who took out two bottles of Corona from under the bar and put them in front of Zou Qing.

Because Zou Qing has been very delicate since he was a child, and now he has long hair and a slightly thin figure, the bar owner always has to tease him every time he sees him.

"Then I'm going to call you brother-in-law!" Zou Qing stopped teasing him, took a beer and sat down on a seat in the corner, and kept looking around at everything in the bar, thinking to himself: It seems that today will be another boring night!

At the same time, a man and a woman had just gotten off from the neighborhood, they had been looking for the heir of Xuan Xijing for half a month, and today they finally approached the target infinitely.

"It should be right here!" said the burly man, looking at the neon sign of the "God of Killing" bar on the street.

The delicate-looking girl beside him wrapped her leather coat tightly, looked around the surrounding environment, and said, "I've been looking for this for more than half a month, and it's too late to find it!"

The man nodded silently, with a little helplessness on his face, and continued to walk towards the bar.

A man and a woman pushed the door to enter the bar, the man was a majestic man, with broad shoulders and a round waist. The woman's long hair is tied back at the back of her head, and she looks petite and cute in a short leather coat.

The two of them walked directly to the bar and sat down with their arms in arms.

This seems to be a normal scene, but Zou Qing instantly became vigilant after seeing it, because since these two people entered the bar, the Xuanxi mirror in his arms was not only glowing slightly, but even the mirror body began to shake slightly, which showed that the danger was already very close to him!

Zou Qing reached into his arms with his left hand and held the Xuan Xi mirror in his hand, and his right hand was still holding the wine bottle casually and bringing it to his mouth from time to time.

Although he couldn't tell what was wrong with these two people with his deeds, his heart was still extremely nervous, and his forehead began to sweat slightly.

Zou Qing saw the two people sitting on the chairs and began to drink, as if they were a couple with good wine. After observing for a while, he suspected that he was a mediocre person.

"Don't be so nervous, man!"

After a while, the stout man who was originally sitting at the bar came over, which made Zou Qing nervous again. The man said this to Zou Qing like an old acquaintance.

The woman next to him also came over and sat on the chair opposite, looking at Zou Qing and smiling in a daze.

"Who are you two?" the Xuanxi mirror in Zou Qing's hand trembled more and more.

The sturdy man said with some confusion, "Didn't your master tell you that we would come tonight?"

"My master, my master has passed away, who are you?" Zou Qing asked vigilantly.

"We, we're dreamers!" said the woman, surprised by her big eyes.

"If you are a dream master, why does my Xuanxi Mirror keep informing you of the danger?" Zou Qing said vigilantly, holding the Xuanxi Mirror tightly in his hand.

"That's because...... Because the real danger is nearby!" the man turned his head to look outside the bar, then said with a serious expression.

Before Zou Qing could answer, the woman pulled out a simple bronze mirror from her bag, took a quick look, and her face changed and said, "We're going to hurry!"

The man nodded, stood up and said to Zou Qing, "Brother, we are going to start the journey of Zhumeng, are you ready?"

Zou Qing was holding Xuan Xijing in one hand and was stupid, and before he could say "no", the woman's "oops" sounded, grabbed Zou Qing's arm, and followed behind the man.

When he went out, Zou Qing immediately felt that something was wrong, first a faint light flashed, and then his eyes were dizzy.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw that the street that had been empty but still bright had now become pitch black, and the bar behind him that had been lit up just now was no longer bright.

From time to time, there was a huge black shadow in the sky, and the cool breeze blew over, Zou Qing couldn't help but wrap his shirt tightly and look at the sky and shouted: "Damn, what is that?"

"Shut up, follow me!" the woman whispered, pulling Zou Qing's arm and running down a dark alley in front of her, while he saw the man running in front take out the mirror hidden on his body, which was also a seemingly quaint bronze mirror.

"Damn, are the two of them really Zhumeng people? Everyone has a mirror, is it wholesale in the small commodity market?" Zou Qing muttered in his heart when he remembered the solemn appearance of the master when he handed him this Xuanxi mirror.

The alley was dark and long, and the man leaned against the edge of the alley, holding a bronze mirror in his hand and constantly changing his position and said quickly: "Vermilion Bird Three, White Tiger Two!" Ling'er, you are in charge of the White Tiger, I will deal with the Vermilion Bird, you ......" When he said Zou Qing, he paused for a moment, and then said: "Forget it, you take the Xuanxi Mirror and wait for us here, if we don't come back in a quarter of an hour, you will go to the house and wait for us." ”

After saying that, the man rushed out of the alley with one arrow step.

"Don't make a sound!" the woman named Ling'er instructed, and then rushed out of the alley.

The Xuanxi Mirror in Zou Qing's hand shook very strongly, and he barely stabilized it with two hands, but the blue light of the Xuanxi Mirror tended to become brighter and brighter.

"Now is not the time to be reckless!" Zou Qing muttered, his body couldn't help but tremble a little when he squatted down, and after calming down, he looked sideways in the direction of the man's rush.
