Chapter 665: Crying
Xiang Si heard the murderous intent hidden in Song Qing's words, and the two glanced at each other, and they both smiled together.
"That's a good idea." She happened to have this intention, and Song Qingxiao's proposal hit her heart, "But I just don't know when these people will be able to come over." ”
Song Qingxiao heard her sigh like this, and then said:
"After the Dragon King sacrifice, there will be ghosts."
Every three years of sacrifices, there will be such a process, so the people in the Yulun Void Realm have already prepared.
These people don't know what kind of mysterious power they have, but they can't sense the fluctuation of spiritual power on their bodies, and they may have to find another virtuous person for things like catching ghosts and driving away evil spirits.
Song Qingxiao suspected that those who had dealings with Yichang and others, in addition to Uncle Xiang, there was another group of forces.
And No. 5, Ma Yi, and the cold-faced woman in red, who have not appeared so far, are very likely to belong to this force that cleans up the aftermath for those who clean up the aftermath for Yulun's virtual realm every three years.
The four of Xiang are not stupid, after listening to Song Qingxiao's words, they immediately understood the meaning of her words.
"In other words......" she held her cheek with her green index finger and muttered for a moment, "these three will arrive here in about two days." ”
Not only that, but because the three of them belong to the same faction, it is very likely that they will cooperate with each other and form an alliance.
Thinking of this, Xiang Si's face changed slightly.
If it was just Ma Yi cooperating with the cold-faced woman in red, it would not be fearful.
Although these two people are also middle-level cultivators in the Infant Transformation Realm, among the five people, their strength is at the bottom, even if these two join forces, they are not the enemies of Song Qingxiao and Xiangsi.
But if Five also joins the Alliance, then things are a little tricky.
"To tell you the truth, I'm really a little jealous of that No. 5." Xiang Si smiled bitterly.
Five's aura was eerie, and it seemed that it was not easy to deal with, and it was very likely that he was the strongest of the five trialists on this trip.
If he also joins the team of Ma Yi and the cold-faced woman in red, the three-person alliance, then Song Qingxiao and Xiang Si will be in danger.
"However, I see that No. 5 is very arrogant, and he doesn't look down on other people, so he may not necessarily ......" Xiang Si couldn't help but feel a little lucky when he thought of the worst result.
It's just that before she finished speaking, Song Qing cut off her thoughts:
"Impossible." She said lightly, "In addition to their peers, it is very likely that they still have the same mission." ”
The reason why Song Qingxiao and Xiangsi cooperated was that in addition to the fact that the two of them arrived at the Yulun Realm first, there were also two people with similar tasks, and it was beneficial for each other to join forces.
And if the other three are companions, they will first be different from Song Qingxiao and Xiangsi in terms of identity.
After all, one is here to exorcise ghosts and suppress evil spirits, and he is a collaborator invited by Yulun Realm; And the existence of one side is a candidate for sacrifice, and it is an important component required by a certain secret method of the people of Yulun Realm.
The positions of the two are different, and it is very likely that the tasks are also inconsistent.
In this case, it is very possible for No. 5 to join forces with Ma Yi and others.
Even if as Xiang Si said, No. 5 is arrogant and doesn't look down on others, and he may not be willing to sincerely cooperate with Ma Yi and the cold-faced woman in red, but he may also be temporarily avoided.
Until he and Xiangsi were eliminated, it was not impossible for this person to kill the killer, get rid of his teammates, and achieve his goal of winning alone.
Xiang Si is not very old, but in fact, the city government is also deep in his heart, and after listening to Song Qingxiao's words, he suddenly pinched away the thoughts that had just been born to sway from side to side in his heart.
If there is a conflict in the mission, then the positions of the two sides will inevitably be opposed, and only by working together firmly can the two have more chances of survival.
Xiang Si's eyes narrowed, and a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his apricot eyes:
"Then find a chance and kill one person first......"
As soon as her voice fell, Pinro's face showed horror when she heard this.
The strange look of the young man naturally couldn't escape Xiang Si's eyes, and this was the first time that his eyes fell on the ordinary people who appeared in this scene.
The young man couldn't help but be terrified when he saw her.
He didn't expect that this young and beautiful girl would say that she wanted to kill people at every turn.
From the fact that she jumped up to the second floor as soon as she came before, but her face did not change, Pinro could see that she was not bragging about killing people at this time, but probably had real skills.
She chatted with Song Qingxiao for a long time, and he didn't understand most of what the two said, but he knew that he was involved in a trouble this time.
Xiang Si didn't look at him before, but when he turned his head to look at him now, Pinluo instinctively felt that his scalp was numb, and subconsciously he ducked behind Song Qingxiao, his heart was beating non-stop.
"How could you be with a normal person?" Xiangsi's eyes flickered with coldness, but he asked with a smile on his face.
"I came in with them, and promised to save his life." Song Qingxiao let Pinluo hide behind him, and said lightly.
When Xiang Siyi heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and the murderous intent froze for a moment.
In the trial scene, even the life of the trialist is not worth mentioning, let alone ordinary people, and the fate is like a mustard.
She didn't expect this young man to be so lucky and let Song Qingxiao promise to save his life.
The two are not only collaborators, but they are about to face a strong enemy, and Xiangsi is not willing to tear his face with her at this time, and then he will suffer from the enemy on his back.
The reason why she didn't avoid Pinluo before was just because in her heart, Pinluo was like a mosquito that could be pinched to death at any time.
But after Song Qingxiao said this, it proved that she obviously wanted to save this person's life, so what the two of them said before was listened to by him.
Xiang Si, the person in the Yulun Void Realm, was not afraid, but he was afraid that the few words he said about the task would leak out of the wind and attract the attention of No. 5 and others.
"Kill it." Her lips moved, and she transmitted her voice to Song Qingxiao with her divine sense:
"So as not to do anything bad."
Song Qingxiao received her transmission, slowly raised her eyelids, and glanced at Xiang Si.
Her eyes were cold, and she repeated her words:
"I promised to save his life."
"It's just a promise, and it's a repentance." Xiang Si didn't think much of her words, and said back: "What's more, after killing him, it's a big deal to kill all the people who heard your promise and silence people, and then who will know what you regret?" ”
The girl's face showed a look of puzzlement, obviously the breaking of the promise was not a strange thing for her, and when it came to killing people, it was also natural, I am afraid that she would do such a thing.
Xiang Si has some skills, scheming and smart, but he is ruthless, and regards cooperation and alliance as child's play, and the alliance with such a person may not be reliable at a critical moment.
Song Qingxiao frowned, displeased with her style, and immediately looked cold:
"I said, I want to save his life." There was already a hint of caution in her words.
"Okay then." The girl saw that she had a tough attitude, so she could only endure the killing intent at the moment and took half a step back:
"This man is really lucky."
She squeezed out a smile, but in her heart she didn't think much of Song Qingxiao's actions, but because of her powerful divine sense, she didn't want to turn her face with her because of an ordinary person.
The girl glanced at Pinluo, who was hiding behind Song Qingxiao, and the trace of killing intent in her eyes did not fade, but it was just hidden deeper.
"It's not early, the people in the Yulun Realm may also be coming, I'll go back for the time being, and I'll contact you when I have news."
After she said this, after seeing Song Qingxiao nodded, she smiled, jumped downstairs, and the graceful figure disappeared quickly in a few ups and downs, leaving only a few crisp bells.
It wasn't until the bell disappeared that Pinluo, who was hiding behind Song Qingxiao, hesitated to stand up and glanced in the direction where the girl left, until he couldn't see her, he was greatly relieved.
"You ......," he was also smart, and as soon as he spoke, he swallowed back the words he wanted to ask.
He didn't try to inquire about the identities of Song Qingxiao and Xiangsi, and he didn't ask her how she and Xiangsi in Yulun's virtual realm knew each other, but said:
"What do we do now? Is there anything I can do to help? ”
At this time, he can see that Song Qingxiao and a 'master' like Xiangsi are talking and laughing, and I am afraid that they are not ordinary people.
In addition, her unfrightened attitude when she was on the boat, as well as her calmness when facing Uncle Xiang, and when she was in Jiuquan, the various actions of the spring water that could not hurt her all came to Pinluo's mind one by one.
She had a life-saving grace for herself, not only when she was in Jiuquan, but also when she had just stopped Xiangsi from killing him.
Recalling that when she was in the Nine Dragon Caves, she asked her for money, and when she said no, Pinluo couldn't help but secretly rejoice: fortunately she had no money and promised to save her life.
At this moment, it seems that he is a fool and a fool, and he hugged a thigh in advance by mistake.
"When I need your help, I'll say it." Song Qingdao.
Pinro nodded apprehensively.
At this time, after he knew that Song Qingxiao might be extraordinary, he seemed a lot more restrained in front of Song Qingxiao than before, and he didn't dare to be as casual as before.
Seeing that she had been looking in the direction of the temple, he stood for a long time, and cautiously looked at it, but after looking at it for a while, he couldn't see anything, but remembered what Xiang Si said before, there may be some kind of 'human chrysalis' like a cocoon hidden in the stone trough in the temple, and he felt a chill all over his body, and couldn't help but turn his head to look in the direction of the lake.
At this time, the sky was darker than when he had just entered the Yulun Realm, and it was likely that the time of the day was about to pass, and it was about to enter the night.
The mist over the lake was deeper than before, and the water loomed over the lake, like a fairyland.
But in such a clean and dusty place, there is a group of 'wicked people' who are more terrible than ghosts, and where have young people experienced such a thing in their lives.
Everything that happened in the past two days had an impact on his previous cognition, and he regretted his trip.
"My grandma is still waiting for me to go back at home...... he said quietly, and there was already a cry in his voice.
His lips were pursed, his eyes were slightly moist, and tears were rolling in his sockets as if they were about to fall.
"I knew I wouldn't come, my aunt said that if I could find a regular job and have financial resources in the future, I would ask someone to give me a blind date......" His voice became quieter and quieter.
These words should not be with Song Qing, the two are not familiar with each other, they just met in Pingshui, not to mention that she may not be willing to listen to him talk about these trivial things.
But he was suffocating at this time, and in this strange and terrible environment, he didn't know who to talk to except Song Qingxiao.
"I'm sorry, I ......" Pinluo squeezed out a smile, turned his head and was about to speak, but saw Song Qingxiao's expression indifferent, as if he was listening to him very seriously, and couldn't help but be stunned again.
"It's okay, you say it." Her attitude didn't seem eager, but at such a time, it made Pinluo feel a lot more relieved for no reason.
"Am I going to cause you trouble?" He asked cautiously, as if swearing, "I won't say what I heard before!" ”
"You can't trouble me." Song Qingxiao couldn't help but smile shallowly when she saw his nervous appearance.
Her personality doesn't seem to be enthusiastic, she has come all the way, no matter who she talks to, she seems to be lukewarm, even when she chatted with Xiangsi, an 'acquaintance', Pinluo felt that her smile didn't really appear in her eyes.
But at this time, her smile was different from before, the sense of distance when she laughed seemed to disappear a lot, and a pair of cold eyes seemed to be full of brilliance, making his heart feel like a blow, and he couldn't recover for a while.
It's just that she seems to realize this quickly, and the smile fades again, returning to her previous coldness.
"Are you really here for the Dragon King?" Pinro asked again.
Song Qing nodded, and his mood suddenly fell:
"I'm sorry, I didn't know Uncle Xiang was such a person, otherwise I would have reminded you earlier." Not only did he deceive Song Qingxiao, but the other two were probably also kept in the dark by Uncle Xiang, thinking that the people in the Yulun Realm were really immortals, and they were completely defenseless at this time.
"It's the same with or without warning." Song Qingxiao didn't take Uncle Xiang seriously, he was just a small person, and the real tricky problem was to find out the dragon king and figure out the meaning of the number '1' in her palm.
The young man was still a little uneasy, but he also knew that it had reached such a point that there was no point in saying this.
Maybe in order to dispel the panic in his heart, or maybe he wanted to help Song Qingxiao understand some local things as much as possible, he remembered that Song Qingxiao had asked him about some local legends before, and he couldn't help with other things anyway, so he simply told Song Qing some local customs, funeral rites, myths and legends.
He speaks as he says whatever he thinks, and he doesn't hide anything, even a few people in the family and what personality he says.
Although this young man is just an ordinary person and a little less courageous, he has a kind personality and can speak well, and some simple legends are interesting to tell him.
Chatting with him, he doesn't need other people to speak, he will talk endlessly, and he will not be cold.
One of them spoke, the other listened, and time flew by.
In the blink of an eye, it was already dark.
Song Qingxiao was concentrating on two things, and while listening to Pinluo's words, he had already sensed the sound of someone coming in at the door of the mansion.
There are a total of five breaths that came, and one of them was somewhat familiar, and it was the first appearance of a few people who came over in the evening.
Sure enough, a few minutes later, I heard footsteps, and at the same time, Churong's voice also sounded:
"Miss Song."
In the darkness of the night, a few flickering dim lights slowly moved along the peach groves on both sides in the distance.
Yulun is isolated from the world, and all food and clothing are primitive and backward.
After a few people approached, Pinluo saw that Chu Rong had led five people, each carrying some food boxes, and slowly walked to the middle attic.
The leader of the first generation carried a lantern, and the lamp burned inside, reflecting the dim yellow around him.
In the evening, after listening to Xiangsi's words and knowing that these people were strange, when Pinluo saw them walking over with food boxes, lanterns, and blue and black robes, he felt a chill in his back and was afraid.
These people were wearing the shrouds they wore when Tusi was buried 3,000 years ago, and the dim light made their faces appear strangely pale.
Coupled with the 'human cocoon' lying in the recess in the holy temple, the thought that Chu Rong and the others might also be reborn from this 'human cocoon' made Pinluo shudder even more.
Hearing Chu Rong's shout, he didn't even dare to raise his head, and forcibly gritted his teeth and grabbed the railing so that he could barely sit on the ground.
Chu Rong's eyes first glanced at Pinluo, the distance between the two sides was more than ten meters, and he looked up from the bottom again, I don't know if he found anything unusual about Pinluo.
He finally set his eyes on Song Qingxiao, tugging at the corners of his mouth, revealing a smile:
"I've got dinner for you."
While speaking, a few people behind him walked in the direction of Xiaolou as if they had orders, and Chu Rong also carried a lantern and walked behind unhurriedly.
The dining area is in the hall on the first floor, which is fully furnished but dark.
In addition, a few darkly dressed people stood in the hall, which made the atmosphere even more depressing.
When the two of them came down, they had already laid out the dishes, and each of the two corners of the house lit a small oil lamp.
Chu Rong smiled and greeted Song Qing Xiaoxiao, and said apologetically:
"I'm really sorry, there are relatively few guests on our side, and the preparation is not sufficient, but we neglect the distinguished guests."
There were a few pieces of meat on the table behind him, which should be the materials that Uncle Xiang had transported this time.
The meat had been briefly cooked, but it was a long way to go, and the temperature was so low that the heat had dispersed all the way, and it looked cold, and some of it had a layer of oil floating on it, and it looked very greasy, and it was unappetizing.
This kind of thing is more like a form of worship to the heavens than something for people to eat.
Chu Rong seemed to see the disgust on Pinluo's face, and explained:
"We're isolated from the outside world, so there's probably a place for guests to stay."
He pondered for a moment, as if remembering something:
"Later, I had some lanterns hung on the treetops outside the garden to keep them out all night, which was also very interesting."
As soon as Chu Rong's voice fell, suddenly a sharp female voice suddenly sounded:
"Woo-woo-woo-I don't want to die-"
The voice was grim and desolate, and it sounded terrifying.
It's dark and quiet everywhere, and it feels like a dead place.
I don't know if it's because the night is dark and the wind is high, and the clouds are too thick to block the stars and moon, or because this place is located on the lake, because of the special terrain, the water vapor forms a lot of fog, and it is blocked by the mountains and cannot be dispersed, so the light is blocked, and the surroundings are so dark that you can't see your fingers.
Even if the lights are lit, they don't feel a little brighter, but the night is even darker.
When the resentful female voice sounded, it was like the terrible cry of the female ghost in the middle of the night when she asked for her life, which made people's scalps tingle when they heard it, and the chill jumped from the soles of their feet.
"What, what sound?"
Pinluo, who was already nervous, almost jumped up when he heard this voice, and looked around nervously.
There was weirdness everywhere here, even if there were six or seven people standing in the room, Pinluo not only didn't feel more at ease, but became more and more frightened because of the presence of Chu Rong and the others.
At this moment, I heard the woman's strange cry, and the voice was so terrible that it made people feel creepy and frightened.
Chu Rong listened attentively, and after a while, as if he knew something, he smiled comfortingly:
"Don't worry, don't worry."
He squinted his eyes and smiled heartily:
"It's the girl who lives on the left, maybe she's hungry at this moment, and I'll be quiet when I send her food later."
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Song Qingxiao again, and said respectfully:
"There are two nights at most, and the guest is patient, and then she can't make any more noises about your Qingning."
The meaning of Chu Rong's words is detailed, and he can't help but be frightened, two days later is the Dragon King Sacrifice, which means that two days later, it will be the girl's death.
