Second, the night is clear and peaceful
At this moment, a steel whip suddenly volleyed in the air, and a whip dispersed the menacing ice arrow, and at the same time, a large white and slender hand gently pressed on Ximen Longjin's thin shoulder.
Ximen Longjin felt a vast and gentle aura pouring into her body from that palm, and under the guidance of that aura, the spiritual power in her body that had surged out because of the power of rules gradually stabilized.
"It's you again!" Qingjing, who had lost one arm, saw the person clearly, and his face became hideous.
It was not someone else, it was Mo Laosan, the shopkeeper of Anfu Restaurant.
Mo Laosan ignored her shouting, and went straight forward to whip her face, and then backhanded another whip towards Murong Shuang, the offensive was very fierce. Rao is Murong Shuang, although he narrowly avoided the whip, but his cheek was also scratched by the wind blade brought by the steel whip.
Mo Laosan stood firmly at this time, brushed his wide sleeves calmly, and pointed at the pair of masters and servants with the steel whip and said, "Are you talking to me Mo Laosan as a fart? If you don't get out of Crescent Town, your grandfather and I will not just scratch your face and talk so well!"
...... Seeing Mo Laosan appear, those pedestrians who were far away from the distance finally breathed a sigh of relief, poked their heads out in twos and threes, because of the legend of the treasure of Crescent Town, there are often demon cultivators and people who cultivate to Crescent Town to hunt for treasures, and it is common for various fights to arise for this.
It's just that the two big girls of the family have their beautiful little faces scratched by you...... Do you dare to say that you are easy to talk to?
Qingjing trembled with anger, but he also knew that he was not the opponent of this reckless man, and he did not dare to be presumptuous, and only looked at his master with red eyes.
Murong Shuang didn't seem to care about the wound on her face, she glanced at the man holding the steel whip opposite with some fear, arched her hand and said: "This senior, I don't mean to offend, this trip is only for treasure hunting, and I chased this night boy all the way, so I had to set foot in your land again." ”
"Treasure hunting?" Mo Laosan sneered, "To talk about banditry so openly and honestly, only you shameless humans can do it, huh...... No, you're not human?" Mo Laosan said, looking Murong Shuang up and down suspiciously, and sighed, "...... Half-demon. ”
Murong Shuang was told that her true body was broken, and her face turned red all of a sudden: "Senior, have you made up your mind to take care of this idle matter?"
"What's the nonsense? Get out of here, if you don't get out, I'll never make it out of Crescent Town." Mo Laosan smiled and said coldly.
Murong Shuang's face turned blue and pale for a long time, and finally pulled the unwilling servant to drive the strange beast cart away.
Watching the pair of martial arts master and servant leave with a disgraced face, the gray-clothed young man finally breathed a sigh of relief, and before he could lower his head to check the situation of the dragon girl, he saw Mo Laosan, who was still very imposing just now, rushed forward with lightning speed, looked at the dragon girl in his arms with shining eyes, and said very excitedly: "You are Lord Long Jin!"
Ximen Longjin was stunned for a moment, and then sighed softly in his heart, is he still recognized......
“...... 's apprentice!" I saw Mo Laosan excitedly and inexplicably, "I just saw that there seems to be the shadow of Lord Longjin in your breath, I'm not mistaken?!"
“......”
Ximen Longjin twitched the corners of his mouth, but simply did not speak.
"I'm Mo Laosan, did Lord Long Jin mention me to you?" Mo Laosan asked eagerly.
...... Who is it?
Ximen Longjin thought about it, and really remembered this person.
Back then, she was young and vigorous, and after being intercepted by the trap of Fengyu Sect, she went all the way to Fengyu Sect, and inadvertently released a unicorn from the back mountain of Fengyu Sect.
The unicorn ...... It seems to be called Mo Laosan?
Just as Na Mo Laosan was talking, planning to pull Ximen Longjin to have a detailed discussion, Ah Jin's mournful cry suddenly sounded next to him.
Ximen Longjin looked back and saw that Ye Qinghe had fallen to the ground at some point.
"Grandpa, grandpa, wake up!" Ah Jin cried.
Mo Laosan squinted his eyes for a long time before he said with some doubts: "This is ...... That kid from the Feng Yu Sect?"
Hearing Mo Laosan's voice, Ah Jin hurriedly cried and begged: "This senior, do you know my grandfather?
Mo Laosan frowned, and finally sighed: "That's it, although Feng Yuzong is a little hateful, this kid is still pleasing to my eyes when I look at it." As he spoke, a spiritual light hit his body, and then he was slightly stunned, "The body is actually dilapidated like this......" As he spoke, he subconsciously glanced at the little girl who gave him a familiar feeling.
Ximen Longjin looked at the man who was standing on the ground, and his eyes were calm.
"It's not a problem to lie down on this street, so let's talk about it in a first-in-class restaurant. Mo Laosan prayed with Ah Jin's teary eyes, touched his nose, and finally waved his hand.
By this time, it was already completely dark.
I don't know when, it started to rain.
Ximen Longjin returned to the position near the window on the second floor, and continued to drink boredly, the gray-clothed young man sat aside, endured and endured, and finally couldn't help frowning and said: "Dragon girl, you are injured, it is better to drink less." ”
When Ximen Longjin heard this, he glanced at the gray-clothed young man and laughed: "It's okay, this wine is as light as water." ”
"No matter what, it's still a ...... in the end" The gray-clothed young man was first confused by her sudden smile, and then subconsciously retorted, refuted halfway, and suddenly widened his eyes slowly, "...... Are you going to talk?!"
The dragon lady can talk!
Ximen Longjin said "hehe" twice: "Oh, really, I can actually speak." ”
A lazy voice, without the sincerity of a little surprise.
The gray-clothed young man twitched the corner of his mouth: "Actually...... You've always been talking, aren't you?"
"How could it be. Ximen Longjin continued to deny it without sincerity, took another sip of wine, and shook his head, "It's really light." ”
At first, you can relieve your alcohol addiction, and if you drink it again, you will really fade out of the bird.
As he was talking, Mo Laosan came up with a wine jar.
"Taste this. He stretched out his hand, placed the black wine jar in his hand on the table, slapped the wine seal with one palm, and a strong and mellow aroma of wine immediately spread.
Ximen Longjin's eyes lit up, and he couldn't take his eyes off the wine jar anymore.
"Try?" Mo Laosan pushed the wine jar in front of her.
Ximen Longjin didn't say a word, and picked up the wine jar with a sip.
The wine jar is very large, and her body is very small, such a strong contrast looks indescribably funny, but her movements are very skillful and natural, and she is used to drinking at a glance.
After a sip of wine, Ximen Longjin only felt that an abundant aura rose from her abdomen, and it was unspeakable Shu Tai, she squinted her eyes and felt it carefully, and then praised: "Good wine!"
Mo Laosan laughed: "Sure enough, it is worthy of Lord Longjin...... 's apprentices. He sat down on the side very familiarly, "This wine was originally reserved for Lord Long Jin, who knows that she never came back, and now ...... It's the same for you to drink. ”
"You have a heart. Ximen Longjin smiled and took another big sip, very satisfied.
The gray-clothed young man looked at the dragon girl, and then turned his head to look at the mysterious restaurant shopkeeper, and said that the dragon girl really had an extraordinary background.
"The boy was lying in the back. As soon as the words changed, Mo Laosan said suddenly.
Ximen Longjin only cared about drinking and did not speak.
"He had a dark wound on his body, and he was hit by a poisonous needle from that little lady, and the poisonous needle was not a big deal, but it was just ...... His body was already in a dilapidated mess, and he was almost running out of oil, and now this is even worse, and I am afraid that he will not have a few days to live. Regardless of whether Ximen Longjin was listening or not, Mo Laosan said to himself.
When he said this, raindrops just fell on the eaves and smashed on the windowsill, splashing small droplets of water and falling on Ximen Longjin's body and face, bringing a little coolness.
Ximen Longjin turned his head sideways to look out the window, the sound of rain was dripping, and there were many small puddles on the street, and the raindrops fell on those puddles, causing small ripples in a circle.
When she was a little koi, she liked this kind of weather the most.
On the day I first saw the night and the peace, it was also the weather.
At that time, she was seriously injured and could not maintain her human form, so she reverted back to her original form and lived in a ruined temple in that small village to recuperate from her injuries.
It was in such a humid and warm weather that she slowly wagged her tail, bringing up small ripples in the rain.
Even though he was seriously injured, he was also a rare freedom.
Then, a man holding a bamboo umbrella slowly walked into the ruined temple.
The aura of his body made her jealous.
It was a human cultivator.
The Ximen clan of the carp clan is also a big clan among the demons, but all demon clans naturally have no good impression of human cultivators, and for human cultivators, the body and flesh of the demon clan are the materials of their alchemy refiners. And Ximen Longjin is well versed in the truth that the weak eat the strong.
At this time, she was covered with injuries and lacked aura, so she was naturally the "weak" one.
If you go head-on, you have no chance of winning.
With a flick of its tail, the little koi quietly approached a water lily in the spring, hiding its little body under the wide leaves of the water lily.
Even though she had carefully collected her breath, she still met a pair of clear eyes.
"Well, it turned out to be a little koi. He bent down slightly, leaned over to look at the little carp that was vigilantly clinging to the water lily stalk, and asked with a smile, "Is it because of you that the village is haunted?"
It was a man in a blue robe, with clear eyebrows and a gentle breath.
She flicked her tail, out of wariness of a human cultivator, she didn't mean to talk to him.
But he was very nosy, and even fished her out of the water directly, looked left and right, and when she couldn't help but fight to die with him, he unexpectedly reached out and fed her a pill.
Afterward...... So he took up residence in the ruined temple.
He subverted all the imagination about human beings in her impression, he was kind, gentle, and would carefully heal her when she was a "monster" in the eyes of humans.
With him by her side, there is no arduous practice, no lonely struggle, and no need to face those fierce beasts that are many times stronger than her.
He would gently feed her some natural treasures that would benefit her, he would smile at her, and although she never responded to his words, he still liked to talk to her. Gradually, she learned that this nosy human cultivator was called Ye Qinghe, from the Fengyu Sect.
...... Those tenderness and smiles were what she longed for, and which she had never received in her not so long life.
So...... That's why she falls in love with someone so easily.
Ximen Longjin thought about it, took another sip of wine, and Mo Laosan, who was sitting on the side, didn't know when he had left, only the young man in gray silently accompanied him.
Suddenly, there was a slightly heavy footstep sound on the stairs, and it was Ah Jin who helped Ye Qinghe, who had woken up, and walked over.
Ah Jin's eyes were red, and her expression looked a little restrained, she carefully helped Ye Qinghe to sit down, and glanced at the little girl who was drinking with a little curiosity.
"Ah Jin......" Ye Qinghe looked at the strange-looking little girl with some uncertainty, with a deep hope in his eyes.
It's obviously another face, and it's not like it at all.
But...... She can play the same tune as Ah Jin.
She has a pair of eyes that are exactly the same as Ah Jin.
She has the same aura as Ah Jin.
"You're Ah Jin...... Isn't that right?"
When the girl standing on the side heard this name, her expression moved slightly, she knew that the "Ah Jin" in her grandfather's mouth was another person, and she knew that her grandfather adopted her and named her "Ah Jin" in order to remember another person, that person...... Is this the little girl in front of you?
Ximen Longjin glanced at him, and suddenly chuckled: "Ximen Longjin, isn't he already dead?" ”
When Ye Qinghe heard this, his face suddenly turned pale, and he shook his body as if he was overwhelmed, and blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth.
His eyes darkened, almost quickly clouded with a layer of death.
"Grandpa!" Ah Jin on the side exclaimed, hurriedly stepped forward to support him, tears fell suddenly, "This little girl, even if you lie to my grandfather, you ......"
Before she finished speaking, a large, skinny and slightly cool hand gently patted her hand, stopping her from finishing her words.
Ah Jin swallowed the unfinished words and bit his lip tightly.
"Can you please have a drink?" he asked softly, looking at Ximen Longjin.
Ximen Longjin's hand holding the wine jar tightened slightly, then lowered his eyes, said a faint "um", and handed him the wine jar across the table.
Ye Qinghe smiled slightly, took the wine jar, and raised his head to take a sip.
He drank so quickly that the liquor slipped down his thin chin and coughed violently, faintly bleeding.
Ximen Longjin quietly watched him cough in pain, quietly watched the girl named Ah Jin hurriedly wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, and took out the pill for him in a panic.
He gently pushed it away, and after a while, he stopped coughing and looked up at her: "It turns out that this wine is really delicious." ”
His eyes lit up as he said this, and he reached out and handed her back the jar.
Ximen Longjin took the wine jar and raised his head to take a sip: "This is Mo Laosan's treasure, it is much better than Hongchen drunk, and it is cheaper for you." As he spoke, he pushed the jar back again.
Ye Qinghe's hand that took the wine jar trembled slightly, and then he raised his head and took another sip.
In this way, you take a sip and I take a sip, and a jar of wine quickly bottoms out.
Ye Qinghe was lying on the table, already drunk.
In the drunken eyes, he seemed to see the beautiful little koi swimming towards him, and in the blink of an eye, he transformed into a beautiful girl in brocade.
She hooked his neck with a smile and said, "I'll wait for you to come back, wait for you to come back and go to Crescent Town to drink together, I heard that the red dust there is very good!"
...... Sure enough, it's you, Ah Jin.
It's good to see you again.
Ye Qinghe fell asleep like this and never woke up again.
Ximen Longjin was also drunk, she was lazily lying on the windowsill, looking out the window with her drunken and misty eyes.
The rain has stopped.
Ah Jin's uncontrollable cry sounded in his ears, very poignant, crying.
Ximen Longjin rarely gets drunk, and she rarely regrets it.
Regret is such a thing, only the coward would do it.
In that long life, the only thing Ximen Longjin regretted was the encounter in the broken temple.
Ximen Longjin thought that Ye Qinghe must have regretted it.
If there is no such encounter......
