The old shopkeeper stretched out his hand to pull Xia Qing and walked quickly in the dark.

After walking for nearly two hours, I still couldn't see Bijia Mountain, and it seemed that I had really teleported to the depths of Wuzhou unintentionally, and I didn't know how the old shopkeeper found him. This old man is really hidden.

Xia Qing secretly smacked his tongue, and quietly opened the ninefold demon pupil to glance at the old shopkeeper.

In the past, the old shopkeeper who was demented all day long was shining in Xia Qing's demon pupils, and there was a circle of divine light behind his head, and there was a phantom hundreds of zhang high in the divine light; one of his eyes was already blind, but there was a divine eye in the center of his eyebrows, and the light emitted by this divine eye could penetrate the heavy mountains and fog, and it seemed that he could see through the essence of anything at a glance.

What kind of demented old man is this, this is clearly a god!

Xia Qing was shocked, and finally saw the true body of the old shopkeeper, and remembered a person in his mind, the Immortal Fish Dragon True Monarch he met in the Fish Dragon Gate, the latter also exuded an amazing light, and only a god could emit a divine light! Now, Xia Qing finally understood why the Qingmian Dazun was respectful in front of the old shopkeeper.

"Qing'er, you have been in the Xia Mansion for many years, do you like the palace a little more, or do you like Wuzhou?" The old shopkeeper seemed to know that Xia Qing secretly opened the eye of heaven to look at him, but he didn't say anything.

Xia Qing came back to his senses and nodded without hesitation, "Of course it's Wuzhou." ”

"Why?" asked the old shopkeeper.

"Because...... It's a magical land and a place where dreams can come true. ”

Xia Qing originally wanted to say that she was going to stay here to find her mother, but after thinking about it, she gave another reason. Deep down, I like the wildness and freedom of Wuzhou, although it is dangerous, there is no worldly fraud and sophistication, and you can freely pursue your dreams.

The old shopkeeper smiled, "Hehe, good, well said, then what is your dream?"

"My dream is ......"

Xia Qing hesitated for a while, and was about to say his dream, when he suddenly paused.

Ahead, the firelight flickered in the darkness, and a person with a pale face was kneeling on the ground burning paper, muttering something while burning the paper, his voice was ethereal, mournful, sad, and sounded very uncomfortable. The man was draped in sackcloth on his head and dressed in white, and he looked like he was wearing a filial piety robe and was paying tribute to the dead, with a cloth stick stuck in his side.

"Who burns paper at this time?"

"Another fate-seeking errand?"

Xia Qing's eyelids jumped, thinking of the weird and gloomy paper-burning old man, who was in the tomb grotto before, if it weren't for Beigong Wanrong suddenly crawling out of the coffin, I was afraid that the soul had been taken to the ghost mansion by the paper-burning old man.

The cold wind is howling and the temperature is lower.

Xia Qing shuddered, feeling as if he had fallen into an ice cave all of a sudden, and a wave of yin qi rushed to his face.

"Another old and young who doesn't know who to summon the soul for, everyone is dead, why bother?"

The old shopkeeper shook his head, pulled Xia Qing and strode away, walking his own way without squinting, "Qing'er, don't look around when it's dark, don't talk, read the secret of longevity." ”

"Hmm. ”

Xia Qing hurriedly urged the Haoqi to keep the secret for a long time, guarding the vitality and mind in his body, and didn't dare to look at the paper-burning man again, but after walking for a while, he still couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart, "Old shopkeeper, who is that person, and who is he summoning spirits?"

"Hehe, Qing'er, what do you say?"

The old shopkeeper smiled and said, "When a person burns paper for a ghost, it is to summon spirits, and what about a ghost to burn paper for a ghost?"

Xia Qing's eyebrows beat wildly, and his palms sweated, "Old shopkeeper, you mean...... , it's not a human being who burns paper, it's a ghost?"

"There are a lot of night wanderers in Wuzhou, but ordinary people can't see them at all, and not just anyone can walk around in Wuzhou under the cover of night. Most of the people who can see it at night are not people. Of course, is it a human or a ghost, or is it important?" The old shopkeeper seemed to have something to say, and said: "Qing'er, if you want to survive in Wuzhou all the time, you must keep in mind your aunt's warning, don't look at what you shouldn't see, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, and don't help what you can't help." The world is so much more than what you hear and see. Time passes, the world changes, and so do people. Last year's you, not this year's you, who knows what you'll be like next year?"

"Hmm. ”

Xia Qing seemed to understand whether he understood or not, and felt that the old shopkeeper's words were more profound than the abyss, and he didn't dare to look back at the strange paper-burning man, nor did he dare to ask again.

The two continued to move forward, with the old shopkeeper by his side, Xia Qing felt much safer, and there was a steady stream of warm currents from his palm, making him feel that his body was warm, and he felt that his body seemed to have transformed to a new realm, and all evils were inviolable.

"Qing'er, are you leaving the inn?" the old shopkeeper asked again.

"Yes, I'll leave at dawn. ”

Xia Qing blinked, worried that the old shopkeeper would not agree, so he changed his euphemism, "However, it's not to leave, but to go down the mountain to experience a period of time, and deal with a little family affairs by the way, and come back to accompany your old man when the matter is done." ”

"Hehe, accompany me, don't make trouble and let the old man wipe your skin for you, and the old man will be thankful. The old shopkeeper shook his head, looked up at the sky, and suddenly stretched out his hand to set Xia Qing up, "It's still far from Bijia Mountain, Qing'er, you bear with it." ”

"Good. ”

Xia Qing nodded, and then regretted it.

The old shopkeeper suddenly exerted his strength, carrying Xia Qing in the dark, and his speed increased dozens of times at once. Xia Qing felt that the wind was blowing on his face and his eyes couldn't open, and an uncomfortable whirring sound sounded in his ears, and the speed seemed to be faster than that of Teleportation Dafa.

"This is what a state pastor is capable of?"

Xia Qing was shocked in his heart, he really understood the old shopkeeper's skills, he wanted to open his eyes to see the old shopkeeper's footwork, but his consciousness was in a trance and he felt that the world was spinning.

I don't know how long it took, when Xia Qing felt that the old shopkeeper had stopped, he opened his eyes and saw that he had returned to the door of the inn. The sky revealed a touch of fish belly white, and the night and poisonous fog slowly dispersed, and the sky dawned.

"Qing'er, come back as soon as the matter is done. The old shopkeeper admonished, strode away, and prepared to go back to the room to rest. After running around all night outside, he also seemed tired.

"Grandpa, don't worry, if I encounter any big villains or big devils, I won't fight hard, and I will definitely rush back as soon as possible." Xia Qing replied, seeing that the old shopkeeper did not stop him from going down the mountain, his mouth was very sweet.

"I can't rest assured, it's not that I'm afraid that you'll meet some big villain, but I'm afraid that you will mess around outside and become a big villain in the eyes of the world. The old shopkeeper's voice came from afar, and he sighed faintly, as if he was worried that Xia Qing would become a big devil after coming down the mountain.

“......”

Xia Qing was speechless, blinked his eyes and said: "Grandpa, don't worry, aunt and Uncle Big Mouth said that my biggest problem is that I am too honest and kind, even if everyone in the world becomes a big villain, I am the last one to become bad." ”

The old shopkeeper paused, it was his turn to be speechless, he was so thick-skinned at a young age, there was no one except Xia Qing. It is worthy of being the apprentices taught by Yu Qi Niang, Zhao Dazui and Tang Ban Cup, who are taught by a few of their big villains, they haven't learned much about their real skills, but they are despicable and shameless, but the back waves of the Luoshui River push the front waves, and they can shoot Yu Qi Niang and their front waves to death on the beach.

The old shopkeeper shook his head, he was really a little worried, worried that the Shanren Inn would come out of an unprecedented villain. He had a very bad premonition that his reputation might be ruined in the hands of Xia Qing, a kid.
