Chapter Twenty-Three: Finally I Know What the Hell You Is
For two nights in a row, Ouyang Shu was patronized, and it happened that there was no moon tonight, and Huan Xiaobao changed into the costume of a male disciple when he first entered Taihe. Taking advantage of the night, they mixed into the Sunny Day Residence, and at this time, it was neither early nor late, and most of the disciples in each room had already washed up or had already gone to bed or were preparing to sleep. Although Zixin didn't agree with Huan Xiaobao's plan, she couldn't resist Huan Xiaobao, so she had to help her sew a special mask according to Xiaobao's request. With the mask, Huan Xiaobao hid it in his sleeve in case the monster used something like ecstasy incense.
That Lou Cang had just come back from the bathhouse and saw a hurried figure, especially like Huan Xiaobao, who had just come to Taihe and collapsed with him. Then he went over and looked, and by the light under the porch, he watched the little figure slip quickly, and he did not notice that something had fallen from his cuff. Lou Cang picked it up and saw that it was a cotton face towel, which was very skillfully handmade. Seeing that figure flashed into Ouyang Shu's room, he followed, and heard a whisper inside: "When it's late at night, we'll hide it and see what kind of monster it is." "The person who said this was Zhu Lin. "The monster didn't know what spell it used, not only did it make people unable to move, but it also spoke as if in a dream. "I heard that the voice was that Ouyang Shu. "I know, I know, if there is any movement later, everyone can cover their mouths and noses with wet facial towels." Hearing this voice, Lou Cang was sure that this person was Huan Xiaobao, and there was no doubt about it. After Huan Xiaobao said these words, his heart was also empty, but in order to make everyone feel at ease, he had to do this. She knows that there are indeed monsters who are good at illusion and make people delirious, but she really hasn't heard of it yet. At the moment, I had to hold on to this life-saving straw.
Lou Cang had already paid attention to the mysterious words of these people when he heard them, and he went to rest without mentioning them.
Huan Xiaobao looked at the mat that Zhu Lin laid for her, and felt in her heart that this Zhu Lin was still quite careful. Suddenly, I touched my sleeves, and it was too bad, the mask fell off, and the other two were ready to have soaked in water, what should I do? "Xiao Zhu, my mask has fallen off, it should be too early to calculate the hour, what rags do you have for me to use temporarily." Huan Xiaobao said to Zhu Lin on the opposite bed in a low voice.
"You can use mine, I'll use a wet towel." With the light coming in from the corridor, Zhu Lin quickly gave his mask to Huan Xiaobao, and he put a wet towel around his face. "You women are so troublesome" Ouyang Shu muttered impatiently, turning over by the way, Huan Xiaobao sneezed and flew the freshly covered mask. "I said on top of the bed, can you get some comfort? Women don't have much to do, can they have your presence? What child in the world is not born to a woman? After that, Huan Xiaobao stuck out his tongue and rolled his eyes at Ouyang Shu under the bed, and lay down outside the bed so that he could see what that monster was. That Ouyang Shu didn't answer, but Huan Xiaobao always felt that the pig on the bed must have said some mean words in his heart.
The oil lamp on the porch could have stayed up until dawn, but I don't know when it suddenly went out.
Outside, it looked like the bottom of a blackened pot, and the entire Qingtianju suddenly fell into unprecedented darkness, and several people didn't dare to speak, only felt that a cool breeze poured in, slowly soaking into the whole body from their feet. Huan Xiaobao felt goosebumps all over his body pop up all of a sudden, his right hand clenched his sword, and his left hand covered his mask desperately. There was a faint air flow slowly coming into the room from the window, but unfortunately there was no light at all, and it was really impossible to see what it was. Because they didn't know the number of monsters, several people discussed in advance not to act rashly. It was pitch black in front of him, and Huan Xiaobao simply closed his eyes and mobilized his strength to feel the breath of the wind. Suddenly remembered that Ouyang Shu said that he vaguely saw a monster that looked like a man and a woman, could it be that the monster was dragging a Li bead in his hand at that time? Huan Xiaobao didn't dare to continue thinking about it, because he already felt that aura approaching this side.
When he felt that the breath was stopping beside him, suddenly there were a few shocking farts on the bed, although it was through the damp mask, Huan Xiaobao still felt that he had nothing to love. The monster also seemed to sense the tremendous power brought by Ouyang Shu's secret weapon, and the buzzing sound it made was a bit like the palace attendant pinching his sharp voice and saying, "Don't, don't", and then Huan Xiaobao sensed that the monster seemed to be constantly waving his hand and pulling the curtain on the bed, and the curtain couldn't help rubbing the tip of Huan Xiaobao's nose that stretched out slightly from under the bed. Huan Xiaobao couldn't stop cursing in his heart, "This damn Ouyang Shu." Although a silent fart can be fatal, Huan Xiaobao feels that Ouyang Shu's thunderbolt-like fart can completely make the desire to reincarnate a ghost disappear.
The monster was still fanning the wind to get rid of the "poison", and suddenly the bed board creaked, and Huan Xiaobao could hear the one on the bed sit up, and before he had time to fight back, he lay down on the bed again. Then there were a few more thunderbolts, making a popping sound on the bedboard, almost shattering it. Huan Xiaobao cursed in his heart: Death Ouyang Shu, are you going to murder? Heaven forbid, I can still see the sun tomorrow.
The monster seemed to have thrown something, and "snapped" Huan Xiaobao was shocked: "Mask, Ouyang Shu's mask." Before he could make a move, he heard Zhu Lin on the bed opposite suddenly jump up, as if blowing fire. Huan Xiaobao complained bitterly in his heart: Xiao Zhu, can't you give him a sword first and then blow the fire fold? Sure enough, the fire was not burned, and Zhu Lin shouted: "Xiaobao.. Not good.. There was no sound. Huan Xiaobao immediately rolled out from under the bed, and hit the monster's feet, touching something fluffy and fluffy, like a dog's paw, and the thing flashed away as if it had touched a coal. didn't have time to study it carefully, Huan Xiaobao slashed over with a sword with his mental strength, the monster dodged, and when he turned sideways, he tore off Huan Xiaobao's mask, and a cool breath like mint rushed into his lungs in a daze. Huan Xiaobao suddenly collapsed in the pile of flour on the floor. He cursed in his heart: "The dead monster took advantage of the darkness to bully you, Uncle Huan and me." But then he was a little scared, although he thought that the monster didn't mean to hurt people's lives last time, but this time after all, it was the three of them who took the initiative to provoke this guy, will this guy eat the three of them without even bones, thinking of this, Huan Xiaobao's heart beat faster, his head turned fast, and he didn't know what way to help the three of them get out of trouble.
Huan Xiaobao had cold sweat on his forehead, he hadn't seen any movement for a long time, and he felt that the breath seemed to disappear from the window, and he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. As soon as this breath was relieved, Huan Xiaobao suddenly felt that his eyes, throat, and lungs were almost finished, his eyes were almost self-extinguishing when he was stimulated by foreign bodies, his throat was extremely itchy, and his lungs seemed to have thousands of small insects singing and dancing to erupt. But no part of his body could move, let alone open his mouth to speak. I yelled in my heart that it was not good, flour, flour, and blamed myself for being too careless.
Let's say that Lou Cang has been waiting, and suddenly felt that the oil lamp on the porch seemed to have been extinguished by someone, so he suddenly got up and mobilized his internal force to concentrate on his ears. Thinking in his heart that it should be the monster that Huan Xiaobao mentioned in their mouths, they didn't dare to light the lamp easily for fear of startling the grass and snakes, so they had to sneak in the dark. I can only hear "squeak... Yikes..." It seemed that the window in the direction where Ouyang Shu was was opened and quickly flew over. Because there were several corridors separated by a few curves, when Lou Cang arrived, he saw something he heard jumping out of the window. Lou Cang silently thought about the fire, and a flame appeared in the palm of his hand, shooting towards the monster, and the monster made a sharp duck-like "quack" sound when it was in pain. When the firelight approached, Lou Cang saw that the thing turned out to be a burly female fox with a big flower. The fox's fat ass was already burning at the back, but it still limped into the woods without hesitation. That Lou Cang's move is false in order to see the true face of the enemy, the next move of the flying sword has left his hand, seeing that the big flower fox is the turtle in the urn, suddenly out of nowhere suddenly a force will knock Lou Cang's flying sword back, Lou Cang turned sideways, caught his flying sword, and then went to chase, there was no trace of the flower fox, just now the direction of the strength is pitch black, not consciously frightened: is someone deliberately planning? Thinking of Huan Xiaobao and them, he hurried to Ouyang Shu's room and lit the fire.
lit the candle in the house, and saw Huan Xiaobao lying on his side in a very strange posture in the white powder pile on the ground, and there were still footprints of the demon fox in the surrounding powder pile, Huan Xiaobao's right hand holding the sword was pressed by his head, and his face was covered with some fine powder particles, and his left hand was hanging weakly on his waist. Lou Cang hurriedly picked it up, and by the candle flame, he found that her face was purple at this time, and her eyes were open, as if she wanted to say something, so she quickly tried to point the acupoints around her body to help her channel, but with little effect.
At this time, the door of the living room was wide open, and a fierce mountain wind blew, and the room was suddenly covered with dust. Lou Cang suddenly thought: Is this guy choking on powder? So I hurriedly went out with my small body in my arms. "Close the door and feed Lou Cang" Maybe the wind outside was too loud, or maybe the two people who had just been blown by the wind and had some "vitality" in the back, the voice was too quiet, Lou Cang hugged Huan Xiaobao and left, and he didn't turn his head back, and the door was not closed. "How long will we last in such a paralyzed state," Zhu Lin asked Ouyang Shu on the opposite bed in a very weak voice. "You must have slept like a pig last time, but you didn't know that this paralyzed state had to wait until after dawn." Ouyang Shu said angrily. At this time, Zhu Lin's legs were hanging on the edge of the bed, but he felt a little cold feet.
Back in the bedroom, Lou Cang immediately wiped Huan Xiaobao's face with a wet towel, and then used internal force to slowly suck out the powder particles in Huan Xiaobao's lungs, and Huan Xiaobao gradually recovered from his free consciousness. Seeing that the person in front of him was Lou Cang's heart, he breathed a deep sigh of relief and said, "It's good that you came one step earlier, otherwise I would have to see the king of Hades." As soon as he finished speaking, he felt an itch in his throat, and with a sneez, he sprayed Lou Cang, who was sitting opposite him to "heal", and saw that the man's eyebrows were already a little distorted, and he suddenly felt so cold, so he had to laugh a few times and said: "I'm really sorry, you see that I was given by that monster I don't know what to use, you help me ask Ouyang Shu how long they will be in this situation." Lou Cang is thanks to you this time, otherwise it would be useless if I choked to death with flour, and I guess I would have to laugh and be generous even after death. ”
"You don't have to worry about that, if you die, no one will remember you." After Lou Cang finished speaking, he had already gone out without waiting for Huan Xiaobao to answer. Huan Xiaobao wanted to scold a few words, but thinking that others had saved him, he felt that there was nothing to be angry about. Although the body can't move, lying on the bed is much better than lying under Ouyang Shu's bed.
Wondering what the monster used to immobilize itself? There was a mint smell, which at least proved that the monster didn't use some kind of magic. Suddenly there was a thunderclap, and the roof seemed to be about to burst open, and it suddenly rained heavily outside. At this time, Lou Cang has already returned, and if he brings it back, he will have to wait until dawn. Huan Xiaobao thought that it was great that he could take the opportunity to sneak back and change his clothes when it was dawn. But that Lou Cang made a gesture of invitation. "That Lou Cang, you see that I first came to Tai and we are living in the same room, which is also fate" Huan Xiaobao's eyes were wide open and the boss laughed, but that Lou Cang was unmoved, "You won't throw me, a half-paralyzed person, out on a rainy day, right?" If God sees it, it won't be good for you in the future! The so-called one good deed a day, how about you take it as a good deed today and let me rest with you for one night? Huan Xiaobao said half-pleading, half-threatening.
"Huan Xiaobao has never seen such a cheeky girl as you," Lou Cang pulled a cold face.
"On this rainy day, our Shu Yaju is also locked, even if you are good, but if you meet that deaf and clear-eyed, alert and cat-like flower mama, we are both finished, you don't want your reputation to be ruined because of me, right?" Huan Xiaobao said this, closing his eyes, pretending to fall asleep.
"Huan Xiaobao, you get up for me, you go to the table."
"It's too cold on the table, and I'll probably be dead the next day. Besides, I can only move my mouth, and if I fall, I guess I will either break my arm or leg, you don't want me to be disabled, right? My dad is such a lone seedling! Huan Xiaobao played tricks. I muttered in my heart: How can I sleep in this bed when I first come to Taihe, why can't I now, isn't it just to temporarily divide half of your bed, it's really stingy.
turned off the lights, Huan Xiaobao saw that Lou Cang had finally compromised, and his heart was also settled. I don't know why, she always felt that this person with a cold face would not really throw her out, so she urged him not to report her coming to Qingtianju without permission.
Thinking about the mysterious person mentioned by Lou Canggang in his heart, there are still many doubts in his heart, and he has to study this matter carefully tomorrow. At the moment, my head is really heavy, the quilt is very warm, and the torrential rain is falling from the sky, and the war song is played on the corrugated, which is really good to sleep. Huan Xiaobao simply stopped thinking and let sleepiness lead him into an incomparably wonderful sleep.
"Huan Xiaobao" Lou Cang shouted for a long time and no one answered, thinking that this guy was probably asleep, and the thunder outside was rumbling, and the stone was shattered. Lou Cang turned over, thinking that this would be good, so he fell asleep.
The next day, that Yang Bin saw that Lou Cang's door had not been opened for a long time, thinking that this guy usually goes to bed late and gets up early, why hasn't he woken up at this hour today. He didn't knock on the door, and directly shook the door open with internal force, only to see that Huan Xiaobao lying on Lou Cang's side, and the two of them immediately woke up when they heard the movement, and Lou Cang pushed Huan Xiaobao away, and immediately put on a disgusted expression.
"Don't look at indecent things, don't look at indecent people" That Yang Bin immediately covered his eyes with his hands, and the corners of his mouth smiled, which was meaningful. Huan Xiaobao saw that Lou Cang, Rao is usual concentration is very good, his face is like frost, and there is also a suspicious flush on his face at this time. I secretly thought it was funny, and when I saw that the demonic Yang Bin almost didn't put an orchid finger, I came to a drama "Hey, official, the slave family is in the wrong place." Oh, you, you're ashamed, you're ashamed! ”
"Good morning Yang Bin" said with a smile stretching his arms, slipping off the bed from Lou Cang's side and putting on his shoes straight. Waving his hand, he didn't take away a single cloud, leaving only the two behind him, and he didn't know how to feel.
Huan Xiaobao ran briskly all the way back to Shu Yaju, but fortunately, in the morning, Mama Hua was generally making up for sleep and there was no hindrance. Thinking that the "goblin" Yang Bin has always been good friends with Lou Cang, he will definitely not be big-mouthed, as for how to explain it, I will leave it to Lou Cang. Thinking of this, he smiled evilly: I really don't know how that cold-faced Lou Cang got along with that goblin Yang Bin, if there is nothing between the two, I am really sorry for the gossip of the girls. Looking at the entire Taihe Academy, if you compare your cheeky skills, I am afraid that only Yang Bin is on a par with herself! The more unorthodox the person, the more he can't be serious with him! Who is my Huan Xiaobao!
"Xiaobao, you are back, you hung your heart all night yesterday, but what did you see?" Situ Zixin looked anxious, looked at Huan Xiaobao, who was alive and well, and deliberately said coquettishly: "Xiaobao, you are getting bolder and bolder. Fortunately, if you come back safely, if you are seen, tell the Lord of Kuang Pavilion, Tai and you will not wait. "Sister, don't say it yet, let me take a sip of tea" Huan Xiaobao took the teapot and poured it violently, and then ran out of the house with a swish. After a long time, he put it back and said lightly: "It's really comfortable." Sister, you don't know how aggrieved I was yesterday," so he explained yesterday's experience to Situ Zixin.
"Then according to what you say, it's thanks to the people who are in the building." Situ Zixin smiled slightly, and said angrily: "Don't mention this to others in the future, the reputation of the girl's family is the most important, you are as big as a day, why don't you have a number." If you are listened to by someone with a heart, you can only wronged someone Lou Cang to marry you in the future. ”
"How my sister turned her elbow out. Is he still wronged? I'm not going to marry that ice lump, it's boring. But I remember everything my sister said. Although she said so, she didn't think so in her heart: Sister Zixin is good at scaring people, and I didn't scare me lightly last time, and Lou Cang didn't take it seriously at all. The master of Shi Kuang Pavilion also said, "All things in heaven and earth grow separately." Children of the rivers and lakes, informal. I am free! ”
"But it's really strange right now, we have rune enchantments everywhere in Taihe, how did that demon fox get in?" Huan Xiaobao couldn't help asking, "Don't get ready yet, I'm going to be late soon." Look back. Since you have learned mechanical techniques from your uncle, it is better to wait and arrest that guy, and then it will be over. In Situ Zixin's words, Huan Xiaobao's heart suddenly brightened, through the description of Lou Cang, it should be a lame demon fox, as long as the spring with unequal gravity on both sides is set, then it will not be able to catch it, and he will be happy, and he will hurry up to freshen up without mentioning it.
When I walked out of Shu Yaju's door, I saw Zhu Lin and Ouyang Shu waiting outside, and when I walked in, the two of them were very obviously dark and green. "Zhu Lin, didn't you sleep well last night?" Situ Zixin asked with concern. Zhu Lin said with a bitter face: I couldn't move last night, and I couldn't sleep well. "That Loucang didn't close the door last night, and we blew the cold wind all night." Ouyang Shu on the side said angrily, looked at Huan Xiaobao and continued: The matter of the demon fox, I have already told the Kuang Pavilion Lord this morning, and everyone will take care of this matter. For the sake of you and us catching that monster, I won't expose you, and you will do it yourself in the future. After speaking, with an expression of "you will only add to the chaos", he looked at Huan Xiaobao and left. Zhu Lin hurriedly stopped, and Ouyang Shu didn't look back.
"Zhu Lin, you don't have to call him, I think he is also determined to handle this matter. Let's wait. When the time comes, we must resist and deny it. Huan Xiaobao hugged his elbow and was calm. "No, if it is found out, the consequences will be very serious. Or I'm going to confess to the pavilion master. Zhu Lin said firmly.
Huan Xiaobao knocked on Zhu Lin's head with a violent shudder, "You go and confess, isn't this falling into that old-fashioned trap." With a little trickery, they can extort the fact that we went to the forbidden land that day. You're a hero! Zhu Lin ate Huan Xiaobao, and he was still stubborn and said, "It's not a way to resist and not admit it, the thing was lost here, I can bear it, and the pavilion master can't." ”
Situ Zixin watched the two of them fighting one after the other, although the consequences of Lizhu's incident were very serious, but watching the two people in front of them making such wanton trouble, they were so dazzling and bright under the bright morning light, and their hearts were really comfortable, it was a big deal to go out together, whatever!
Suddenly, Huan Xiaobao froze, and said with a wicked smile: Since you are worried about the matter of Lizhu, it is better for us to drag Lou Cang and Sima Yi into the water. Situ Zixin smiled: What do you want to do? Huan Xiaobao whispered to the other two: "Yesterday, I heard Lou Cang say that someone secretly helped that demon fox. At present, there are many suspicions, the first Li Zhu has the effect of dispelling evil spirits, combined with Ouyang Shu's description, it must have been stolen by the fox. Hearing this, Zhu Lin wondered why she was so sure, and was about to ask when she heard Huan Xiaobao continue: "But how did the monster enter Taihe, and how could it touch Lizhu?" If that person is secretly helping, he must be very familiar with our Taihe. For now, let's investigate what that Lizhu does. Second, the demon fox was injured, and it is estimated that it will not come for a while and a half. Third, if the demon fox was manipulated by a master to steal the Li Pearl, why did he come back when the Li Zhu was in his hands? According to the location of the bed, Xiao Zhu's bed should be closer to the window, why would that demon fox give preference to Ouyang Shu? There must be something strange about this. Let's check it out and see if there is any record of the demon fox. At the moment, we can only investigate secretly, only the three of us are not enough, Lou Cang and Sima Yi should have a better understanding of the changes of the five elements and various monsters than us, it is better to find them to analyze and analyze. Besides, it's not just the three of us who go to the forbidden land, and if the Kuang Pavilion Lord is to blame, he won't drive the five of us down the mountain together. With that, he smiled smugly and strode forward.
That Zhu Lin chased after him and said, "Xiaobao, why are you so sure that the demon fox stole the Li Pearl, maybe there is someone else?" Huan Xiaobao smiled, "Xiao Zhu, didn't that Ouyang Shu say, the first time he saw something like a man and a woman rubbing against his face." You see, the demon fox has come these times when he has come when the night is dark and the wind is high and he can't see his five fingers, and since he can see a little bit of things that time, I think it should have beads hidden on it. "Oh, I see," that Zhu Lin suddenly realized.
