It was getting dark, but the sky was clear on this side - the west side of the house was on fire.

The whole house is almost entirely made of wood. The valley is warm and humid, and it is not very dry even in winter, so the building has not done much fire prevention measures. The walls are coated with refractory paint to make it burn more slowly. But by the time the fire was discovered, it had already passed, and the lacquer had melted somewhat. The whole building was brightly lit, there was no one there, and it burned for a while before it was discovered.

The fire was naturally burned by the mountains and seas, and the method was what Ah Luan thought. But she wasn't really sure that this method was foolproof, but she remembered that Yan Muxue's room was to the east, attracting people to the other side, and they could go up from the east. However, she wasn't sure that the three girls in need were there—she just saw that the lights were on in the house where no one should have been.

It's not a bad idea, it's a good idea. If Wu Yuan returned to his room, even for his purposes, he could not let them be burned to death, and he would have to let them out. If not, it would be much easier to save people.

The two people who were hiding in the bushes by the wall watched Wu Yuangui run over there, directing the firefighting, and they sneaked in from the east silently. The building is very large, and it will take some time for the fire to come over. Shanhai followed Ah Luan and soon came to Yan Muxue's door, there was a lock on the door, but the guards fled for their lives.

"Are you in there?" Shanhai slammed the door hard.

"In!" Ah Ling rushed to the door and responded, "I'm with Ah Yu, Ah Yu has been poisoned by the snake and can't move." Sister Wan was in the house on the east side—I had just looked downstairs, and there was a lot of noise in the southeast corner, and everyone ran there. What's going on? ”

It's broken.

"Let's go!"

When Shanhai heard Dai Luan say this, he stepped aside and turned his head to see what she was going to do. As a result, before he could react, Dai Luan lifted the peachwood sword up, flashed two sparks, and the iron lock was split in two and fell to the ground.

It's the swordsmanship that sharpens iron like clay.

Unable to care about the emotion too much, the two hurriedly rushed into the house to check on Xie Huayu's situation. She was in a bad state, and her face was worse than it had been in the afternoon. Shanhai put up one arm on her side, and the three of them moved her out of bed in unison.

"Can you carry your sister? We still have to go east. ”

"I can get the beasts of the valley downstairs to help me, but ...... Go and save her, we're going to go together!" ”

Xie Hualing took her sister from Shanhai's shoulder, and was immediately pressed to the point that she couldn't walk. She leaned Xie Huayu against the wall and said this to them. The master and apprentice looked at each other, nodded, and ran down the corridor to the east. The heat had reached the third floor, and I could hear the crackling of the wood on the second floor, and when I ran, it was not the wind that blew on my face, but the heatwave. Time is running out.

When passing by the gate of Wu Yuanhui, the mountains and seas suddenly stopped. He turned and pushed the door open, and saw an umbrella leaning against the table. His instincts were good. Shanhai stepped forward to hold up the umbrella, wanting to check if there was anything missing, but when he saw the dense charms under the umbrella, he almost dizzy. Glancing at the vicinity and seeing nothing else, he hurried away. When I caught up again, I found that Dai Luan had cut the second lock, and it was the four big characters of Liangqiu Muwan written in front of the door.

Pushing open the door, both of them were stunned. I saw Mu Wan tear up the sheets and quilts of the house, tie them into long strips, and step on the window frame to jump down. She looked back at them and breathed a sigh of relief.

"I almost jumped!"

"Didn't you jump into the fire pit?!"

"It's okay, I have a way."

"Alright, alright, come down quickly. Your umbrella. ”

After that, Shanhai threw the umbrella over, and Mu Wan caught it. She followed them all the way back, and said as she ran:

"I could have gone directly, but Senior Sister Yu was poisoned by snakes. If it weren't for the fire, I wouldn't have dared to run like this - I would have wanted to go around the second floor. ”

"Where's your tengu?" Dai Luan asked her.

"It's so noticeable that if they count this fire on my head, it won't do the sisters any good, and I can't say it—not now. Strangely enough, I've grown up in the valley for so many years, and I've never seen any poisonous snakes. Big...... Wu Yuangui seems to have a master, be careful of him. ”

The crackling sound of burning, the sound of splashing water, and the noise of life come and go, and the temperature is getting higher and higher. When he ran back to the staircase on the east side, he saw his senior sister leaning there from a distance, and Mu Wan immediately overtook the mountains and seas and rushed straight up.

"I don't know much about snake venom...... Dai Luan frowned, "I've never seen her like this." ”

"Go down first, it's going to burn." As he spoke, Shanhai set up Xie Hua's ballad again, and Mu Wan put up his other arm.

Five men stumbled downstairs, and downstairs there was a tall wild horse, a pony, and a deer. Mu Wan rode on his horse and pulled Xie Huayu up with the help of Shanhai. At this time, someone noticed them in the distance and yelled at them. Xie Hualing, who was riding a deer, ran straight towards him, and as soon as the antlers were picked, the two flew out. The deer was stronger than a pony, carrying her and Dai Luan.

Five people took advantage of the chaos to rush out of the crowd. People were carrying buckets to put out the fire, and they didn't have time to care about anything else, but someone shouted at Wu Yuangui, and when he saw this, he immediately waved his hand and summoned some people to follow him. Suddenly, many birds swooped over, one after another, and they could be found of any species, no matter how big or small. But they all have one purpose, and that is to stop them.

Many of the birds were wounded by the blades, screamed and carried down, and were trampled into the ground by their messy footsteps. The terrible scream spread far, far away, to Xie Hualing's heart. She hugged the deer's neck, gritted her teeth, and did not dare to look back, let alone cry.

With the help of all the animals, they ran as fast as they could. There was also a flock of birds in the sky to lead the way. Perhaps he found that people could not catch up with the horses, and someone prepared bows and arrows behind him. Many birds were suddenly shot and fell straight down, and they scrambled to dodge. An arrow hit the deer in the hind leg, and it limped to its knees, and the two girls were thrown out. But the other two horses had no intention of stopping, and were still galloping uphill. They were getting farther and farther away from the girls.

"Ah Luan ——!" Shanhai turned around and shouted hoarsely.

At this time, he suddenly saw a note flying backwards, and Mu Wan on the side had just put away the umbrella that had been held for a moment. The mountains and seas turned back again, looking behind them, and the scenery on both sides receded sharply, all condensed into a small dot. From this point of gathering, suddenly something caught up with their speed and galloped straight towards them.

It's a black-and-white, multi-legged monster.

It turned out that Mu Wan released Xun out. It seemed to know what was going on outside, and it turned into this massive gesture in the moment of its transformation. Although it is not much bigger than a deer, it is enough to carry two girls on its back. Its body was slender, but its thin legs were very powerful, and it ran in a fairly coordinated manner, quickly catching up with them.

Shanhai turned his head to look at Mu Wan, holding her senior sister in front of her, for fear that she would fall down. This girl in her early twenties has experienced so many things that do not belong to her age, and in the face of even more absurd things, she has grown more or less - this growth is spiritual. She was much stronger, and she was no longer so impulsive when things changed, as he could tell from her decision not to summon the tengu at that time.

Even though the price of growing up is so brutal.

The voice behind him grew quieter, so small that it was almost inaudible. They soon crossed a small hillside, and the terrain turned downward. But after walking a few steps, there was a noise ahead. As they got closer, the noise grew louder and louder.

It is a rushing, wide river that flows down from the valley.

Everyone got off their mounts. Xie Hualing pulled the corner of Lamuwan's clothes and asked her.

"How should we go? They can't cross such a river. But if I take a long detour, I'm afraid that someone will block the bridge. ”

Xie Huayu suddenly came to his senses. She was a little confused, sometimes falling asleep and sometimes waking up. Now, when she opened her eyes and struggled to get off the horse, Mu Wan turned around and immediately held her.

"Be careful, don't move!"

"Leave me alone...... her voice was so soft that it was almost drowned by the sound of water, "if you go down the river, you will definitely be stopped by the disciple who received the flying pigeon letter, and you will have to go around." Take me with you...... It's too late. Ah Ling, you have to go to Mu Wan's house and persuade her mother to move out...... Let's go to our house together......"

"You come with me!" Xie Hualing clutched her sleeve and didn't let go.

Mu Wan knew very well that she would not have time to go home. Outside the valley, my mother lives alone. They haven't seen each other for most of the year – when the valley used to be busy, they might only see each other once a year, and that was Chinese New Year's Eve. At that time, my brother will also come back. But in the next few years, he will not come back, only send some money, and leave them alone. This time, she seems to have not seen her mother for several years.

There's no way we've been together this year.

She suddenly took a deep breath and took back all the emotions that flowed out of her tears.

"It's okay, you guys have to be together. You take your sister straight home and go to find the best Langzhong. My mother's side doesn't need to be so anxious...... They should not bother to threaten her old man for a while. It's just that you're going to send someone to pick her up. Let her bring less things, a lot of old things are long gone......"

"This poison can't be solved by Lang Zhong......"

As if she hadn't heard this, Mu Wan turned around and walked a few steps closer to the river.

"Are you going to summon the tengu?" Dai Luan asked her.

"That won't take us—there's another way."

Mu Wan raised her hand and rolled her fingers, and a familiar spell appeared between her fingers. Before a few people could remember, she released the Shikigami that they were all very familiar with.

The black fishtail monster is soaked in the water and wagging its tail happily.

"Please." She crouched down and stroked the monster's damp hair.

Hanmihime suddenly dived into the water, like an arrow soaked in water, being fired to the other side. The waters it swam through were all solidified, turning into slightly undulating, solid ice. When it swam to the opposite side, a wide ice bridge appeared in front of it.

That's not enough. She summoned Bai Di again. Bai Di flew over lightly, dancing all the way, and a white fluff was sprinkled on the ice where the hem of her skirt hit, covering the ice bridge. The bridge deck is not so smooth, who can easily walk up it. They led their horses and carefully walked through the snow-covered "road", and the texture under their feet was as strong and soft as walking on grass. When they crossed the river safely, the cold water suddenly caused the ice to melt, and the river rushed happily again.

Mu Wan withdrew Shikijin and breathed a sigh of relief. She turned around and was about to get back on her horse, and as she walked with the group, there was an additional figure on the path ahead.

Mu Wan was stunned. Xie Hualing looked over and was also stunned.

The figure was all too familiar. It's so familiar...... Give somebody the creeps.

Mu Wan couldn't help but take a step forward, and Shanhai suddenly grabbed her.

"Ahh ”

"Senior Sister Yan, Senior Sister Yan......" Ah Ling said tremblingly.
