I turned my face sideways and looked at his stubbornly closed eyes, forcing himself to sleep, which was a little cute.

"Shenjun, I can't sleep, how about I tell you a story?" I saw that he was "sleeping" so painfully, so I thought of a way.

Beilin was silent, this can be regarded as a tacit approval.

I thought for a while, and then said to him: "A long, long time ago, there was a place called "Elephant Village", and the story of the "Six-Fingered Girl" was circulated, saying that it was a mountain ghost who had been cultivating for hundreds of years, and when he was transforming into a human form, he was broken by a mountain man, so he had an extra finger on his left hand. ”

This story was told to me by Master, when I was timid and afraid of mountain spirits and ghosts, and we often traveled over mountains and mountains.

So, Master told me this story.

At that time, the mountain ghost could have killed the villagers to kill them, but for some reason they let him go.

However, after the villagers came down the mountain, they began to spread the word that the mountain ghost had turned into a six-fingered girl, and no one dared to go up the mountain from then on.

Then one day, when a few young soul slayers heard about this, they went to the foot of the mountain together, thinking that they would be able to make a name for themselves in their profession by eliminating this mountain ghost.

After entering the mountain, they searched everywhere for the whereabouts of the mountain ghosts.

However, he never found his whereabouts, and when he was about to go down the mountain, he found that it was already dark, and the mountain road was difficult to walk, and one of the spirit masters fell down the ramp and injured his leg, so he could only be supported by the rest of the people to continue walking down the mountain.

However, when they groped down the mountainside, they found that there was an inexplicable thatched hut in this place.

Several people thought it was strange, thinking that the mountain ghost must be inside, and after breaking into the hut, they found that there was really a woman inside, and she was frightened by the sudden appearance of several people.

These people were holding the rune paper, but the rune paper in their hands did not react, and when the girl pressed her hand to her chest in horror, they also saw that the other had only five fingers on her left hand.

So he gave up, and after the girl agreed, she rested all night on the mountain.

Early the next morning, except for the soul remover who had broken his leg and had not left, the rest of the people went down the mountain.

"As a result, is it another old routine of long-term love?" Beilin closed his eyes, suddenly spoke, and asked without interest.

"Huh?" I was stunned: "What an old routine, but I did fall in love, and besides, the soul slayer later knew that the woman was a mountain ghost, but he still chose to be with her." ”

I always thought this story was made up by Master, but one year, when we actually passed by a place called "Elephant Village", we saw a bare mountain.

Master told me that later a Taoist temple was built in the village, and a very powerful Taoist chief came to him, and the Taoist chief said that it was very simple to get rid of the mountain ghosts in the "Elephant Village", just set fire to the mountain.

Because, the real body of the mountain ghost is actually a tree spirit.

According to the Taoist chief, the villagers burned the mountain bald by a fire, and when the mountain was bald, people saw that there was a white mist on the top of the mountain.

When the Taoist chief took the villagers to take a look, he found that it was the mountain ghost who used his last trace of spiritual power to protect his husband.

However, the husband eventually killed himself on the mountain and "accompanied" the mountain ghost.

At that time, when we climbed over the mountain, we also saw a lonely tomb, which was said to have been built by the man's father and mother.

"Shenjun, isn't it very touching?" My gaze looked at the North Underworld again.

There was no wave on Beilin's face.

This time, though, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked at me.

"Chu Xiyan, you said, if you fall in love with someone, can you really never change your heart?" He stared at me with confusion in his eyes.

"This? If you really love someone, it shouldn't change. I thought for a moment and replied.

He listened to his eyebrows still staring, and asked again very seriously: "A person's life, a hundred years is too much, but the demon is different, the demon can live for a thousand years, the big demon, the demon god, can continue to cultivate and live for a long time, after a few hundred years, if the heart changes, the vigorous love before, isn't it?" ”

He stopped talking, his face gloomy.

"Huh?" I was also a little confused when asked, after all, I am only seventeen, and I have only just begun to fall in love with love.

"Shenjun, my master said that the love between men and women is like wine, the older it gets, the more fragrant it becomes, if you really have an unforgettable love, then the other party must have the characteristics you like, right? She? When I said this, I suddenly closed my mouth, and looked at Beilin with wide eyes in excitement: "Shenjun, you don't love the girl of the eternal night anymore?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense, this god monarch, it's just a casual question." When he said that, he turned his back to me.

I looked at the back of the Stygian Beilin, and thought to myself, it shouldn't be possible, isn't he all the girls of the eternal night? How is it possible to change your mind suddenly?

It was just my own imagination, and I closed my eyes.

It's just that after a hard night's sleep at noon, now, full of energy, I turned over and called out twice, but he didn't respond to me, so I got out of bed, sat down at the round table and ate pastries, and ate plate after plate with great pleasure.

"Chu Xiyan, you can really team up with Hongtu, all day long, keep talking."

"Ahem, ahem!"

I thought he was asleep, and I choked when he spoke so suddenly.

Stygian heard my cough, and then leaned sideways and looked at me.

Seeing that I was pouring myself tea in embarrassment, he shook his head again and again.

"How is that possible? Ben Shenjun, how could it be? He muttered something in his mouth, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

I patted my chest and swallowed the pastry.

"Eat, eat, maybe eat more, and you can grow longer, otherwise with such a flat body, your future husband will be too pitiful." After speaking, he put a hand under his head.

I looked at the few pastries left on the table, cleared the plate, ate and drank enough, and then went back to the bed.

Beilin looked at me and said with a smile: "Chu Xiyan, your mouth is really strong, before, were you saving money for this Divine Monarch?" ”

"I'm saving food for three days." I yawned, "Sleep." ”

With that, I closed my eyes, and this time I fell asleep, and slept until dawn.

If it weren't for Aunt Xin knocking on the door, I think I would have slept until noon.

When Aunt Xin and the others came to call me to leave, but when Aunt Xin and the others came in, they dressed me up, and then led me out of the Anqian Palace.

At the gate of Anqian Palace, there was a carriage decorated with bright yellow satin cloth, and a golden bell was tied to each corner of the carriage.
