Chapter 9: The Book of Residence

[The book continues from the above, and the last book said that Ah Hong fled in a hurry after being injured by Mu Qingming, and was rescued by the old scholar, and then the two reached an agreement to work together to break the ban on protecting the array. And Miao Tian rushed to the woods, and after meeting with Mu Qingming, he pursued the breath, but he could only sense the qi of plants and trees nearby, so he expected that Mu Qingming's opponent was only afraid that it was a wood ghost. Led out the Miaotian spell, but only the slightest breath of the wood ghost could be traced, and he went to the other side of the river, and then there was no trace, and the dragon lockers had to stop there, thinking of other methods. The next day, the old scholar went out early and went to the Yunjin Night Market to find a green house, not to find a girl, but to the guard of the turtle to threaten to buy filthy things. 】

The icy night wind stopped, and the shadows of the trees in the small forest also listened. In the depths of the darkness, there was a low sound of insects slowly sounding, revealing an indescribable poignant earnestness.

"yes, why did I forget to open the enchantment?" Mo Han was stunned and raised his hand and scratched the forehead covered by his bangs, and suddenly realized. was questioned by Mu Qingming, and then she remembered that she had indeed forgotten to unfold the enchantment just now; This was her mistake, and then her face couldn't help but look annoyed.

But then, Mo Han turned his head to stare at Mu Qingming, and asked loudly, "Didn't you also unfold the enchantment?" ”。

Mu Qingming smiled embarrassedly, with a faint embarrassment on his face; Just now, he and Mo Han were negligent for a while, but let Na Ah Hong run away, and now he was asked by Mo Han again, and he was embarrassed to continue to laugh at fifty steps and a hundred steps, so he had to smile stupidly and perfunctorily.

But fortunately, this area is sparsely populated, there are only a few dilapidated empty houses and fields within a radius of half a mile, and no pedestrians pass by here after nightfall, even if the barrier is not opened, no one has seen them perform magical arts, and the identity of the dragon locker has not been revealed.

"It's so far away, there's really no way to track it." At this moment, Miaotian, who had been concentrating for a long time, suddenly opened his eyes and said to them with a little disappointment: "I can only perceive that he has gone to the other side of the river, but in the past, the breath has disappeared." The night breeze blew away the little breath that was there. ”。

With that, Miao Tian turned his head and looked at the other side of the Golden Juice River. Ah Hong's breath disappeared in the direction he was staring.

It was dark under the shade of the trees, and Miao Tian could not see the murmuring of the river in the dark, but could only hear the sound of the river flowing slowly, and feel the moisture and dampness seeping from the surface of the river.

The spring city is already lush with vegetation, and the smell of plants and trees is diffused in almost every corner of the city, and it is an easy place for wood ghosts with the same breath as plants and trees on their bodies. And when Miaotian arrived, Ah Hong had been on the run for a long time, and he couldn't track him down.

Being able to perceive the direction of the other party's departure in the meager breath is already Miaotian's ability.

"Well, that can't be helped. Except for being a little too stubborn, that kid is not a cultivator of evil arts, so let him go for the time being. After thinking about it carefully, Mu Qingming didn't show any disappointment, but said lightly: "Anyway, I have a heart and soul with the big array in this city, as long as he destroys the formation or the big array, I can feel it in time." ”。

Hearing this, Miao Tian Mohan nodded silently.

For the sake of now, it can only be so.

"Let's go, go home." Mu Qingming said this, and with Mo Han and Miaotian, he walked towards the outside of the woods.

When the three of them reached the edge of the woods, Miao Tian suddenly stopped and turned his head to look into the woods.

In the night, Miao Tian looked carefully for a long time, and only saw the heavy leaves on the road, and with the night breeze again, the swaying branches and the fallen leaves slowly falling.

Miao Tian couldn't help frowning, he suddenly felt an evil aura that seemed to be absent just now, very light and light, but why couldn't he see anything in a blink of an eye? Even that breath disappeared without a trace?

Miao Tian couldn't help muttering in his heart, could it be that his perception has deteriorated? Or did he have delusions?

"Miaotian, what are you doing over there?" Mu Qingming and Mo Han, who had already walked away, felt that Miaotian had not followed, and immediately stopped and shouted.

"Nothing?" Miao Tian heard the sound and looked at the place where he had sensed the evil qi before, and still couldn't sense the strange breath before turning his head back, and after calming down, he quickly chased after Mu Qingming and Mo Han, and followed them towards the wooden bridge across the river.

After the dragon lockers gradually moved away, in the small forest at their feet, the sound of insects suddenly stopped, and a cold breath slowly rose among the dead leaves on the ground.

A head covered with mushroom-shaped sarcoma quietly emerged from the ground not far from the foot of the formation. In the darkness, a pair of dark eyes on this head were staring at the direction of Mu Qingming's departure, flashing with excitement in the drowsy night.

It wasn't until a long time later that these eyes took their gaze back, and landed on the place where Ah Hong was standing before, staring at the shallow footprints of the fallen leaves, and whispered to himself: "Wood ghost, wood ghost, it turns out that the kid with the guqin on his back is a wood ghost, it's interesting." ”。

As the words fell, the head that emerged from the soil retracted into the soil, and everything in the forest was restored again. The poignant chirping of insects sounded again after a while......

In the early morning of the next day, the morning glow in the city of Kunming covered the blue sky like a flame of red light, dyed the white clouds in the sky, and cast a red on the ground.

In some remote places in the city, where the vegetation is vigorous, there is a low cry of "partridges", which is the voice of turtledoves.

Isn't it that the morning glow doesn't go out, it looks like it's going to rain on this day, so it is said that there will be rain when the turtle dove calls, and the turtle doves in this city are so cheerful today, and the seemingly sunny weather is just an ethereal illusion.

Under the red sky, a hint of stuffiness rose from the ground, and the whole city was like a huge steamer, filled with sweltering heat.

Only the old pedant's house in the west of the city was as cold as ever. Even without the cold night breeze, this small courtyard, which looks no different from a ruined temple, is still cold.

Ah Hong was arranged in the east room by the old pedant, and after a full night's sleep, his spirit was much better. The bruises on his body have also disappeared.

As for the pain lingering in the bruises, it is not so heavy.

Ah Hong got up, and the old scholar walked in through the door, holding two baked bait cubes in his hand, and then handed one of them to Ah Hong.

"Thank you." Ah Hong took it, and his heart was even more grateful to this old pedant. He has already forgotten all about how many oceans the other party pit him yesterday.

"I'll make do with a casual meal in the morning, and I'll go out to buy something that breaks the formation in a while, and you can take care of your injuries at my house, don't run around, so as not to be discovered by those people last night." After speaking, the old scholar had already taken out two brown pills from his sleeve and handed them to Ah Hong: "Treat bruises, invigorate blood and dispel blood stasis, and it will get better faster after taking it." ”。

"Okay." Ah Hong nodded his head, took the pill and just looked at it, and then raised his head and sent it to his mouth.

By the time he swallowed the pill and lowered his head again, the old pedant was no longer in the room.

While Ah Hong was taking medicine, the old scholar walked out of the east house and came to the courtyard gate, and after gnawing on the burning bait block in his hand, he opened the door and walked out of the courtyard.

Nibbling on the roasted bait in his hand, the old scholar went all the way east, slowly walking through the streets and alleys. After walking for a long time, he crossed the Spring City before he walked to the side of the Victory Bridge on the Panlong River.

This area is still very noisy and lively, and the merchants who gather form a noisy and prosperous market, whether it is day or night, it is full of people coming and going, the streets where goods are proudly gathered, and the alleys where the market is lined up, where there are always crowds of people.

On the Panlong River on the side, there are boats shuttling back and forth, white romance is overflowing, and thousands of sails are standing in a forest.

The old scholar crowded into the crowd to the bridge, but did not step onto the bridge, but along both sides of the river, the Yunjin embankment is planted with white frangipani, and goes all the way south along the river.

The further south you go, the more traditional two-storey buildings with inner corridors on the side of the road become, which are very chic; Some are even built on the riverside, and you can see the white waves of the Panlong River with the silver ridge of Suocheng when you open the window. Only a few of these houses have doors on the first floor facing the street, and the goods in the house are displayed and are doing business. Most of them have their doors and windows closed.

And those small buildings with closed doors and windows are Qinglou.

Yunjinpu is not only one of the concentration places in the market in the spring city, but also the famous flower street in Kunming City, Willow Lane, the fame in Kunming City, is equivalent to the famous eight alleys in Beiping City, and most of the Qinglou in the Spring City are concentrated here.

The old scholar looked left and right on the street for a while, and stood at the door of a door that was hidden, and stood at the door of the Qinglou where a turtle man who was leaning on this doorpost and taking a nap, and after glancing at the turtle father, he asked softly: "Young man who guards the door, will you give you a chance to make a fortune?" ”。

The short, dark-skinned turtle was suddenly noisy when he was napping comfortably, and he was somewhat displeased, so he opened his eyes and glanced at the old scholar opposite, and slowly closed it, and shouted impatiently: "Daddy, the girls are sleeping, you can bear with it, come back at night." ”。

"I'm not looking for girls." The old pedant turned a blind eye to his neglect, and then spoke slowly.

When the little man heard this, he became even more angry, his eyes suddenly widened, his eyes flashed with anger, and he scolded the old scholar in a deep voice: "Why don't you find a girl to come to the kiln? Get lost! ”。

"Young man, don't be breathless." The old scholar smiled indifferently, still ignoring the tortoise's annoyance, and unhurriedly took out a few silver dollars from his sleeve: "If you take me into you, these are all yours." ”。

When the turtle man saw the bright and swaying ocean, his eyes widened and his anger turned to joy, but he was a little worried, for fear that it would be with the ill-gotten wealth of the disaster, so he did not rush to reach out and take the money, but asked more vigilantly: "Why are you not looking for a girl?" ”。

"Of course, I'm looking for your bustard, and I'm looking for her to sell something." The old scholar shook the ocean in his hand, squinted his eyes and smiled: "If you don't want to, then I'll find someone else." ”。

"Don't." As soon as the turtle man saw that the old scholar had finished speaking, he was about to leave, and his face was already full of anxiety. Seeing that the money that was about to arrive was about to fly, the turtle prince no longer hesitated anything, hurriedly strode forward, grabbed the old pedant's arm, and said urgently: "We only have girls here, nothing else, what do you want to buy?" ”。

The old scholar paused, turned around again, and showed a mysterious smile to the short turtle male: "Find your old bustard, buy some dwellings." ”。

What is Jujing? What is the old pedant going to do with this thing? Find out what happens next, and listen to the next breakdown.
