Hearing Ji Yan say that, Xiang Zixi's gaze suddenly stayed on Ji Yan's body, and he looked at him so fixedly.

Ji Yan gently pulled her wrist back without a trace, dragging her behind him, blocking her vision with his own body, and also blocking the sight of others.

"Last night, the two of us chased after each other in batches, but the speed of that divine beast was so fast that it was already gone when it was chased out of the inn!" Ji Yan lied and didn't make a big draft, and said unashamedly.

Xiang Zixi also figured out the joints at this time, and couldn't help but laugh softly when she thought that these people were actually scared like this by their own appearance.

Sure enough, people are scary, scared to death!

At this time, a person hurriedly walked in outside the door of the inn, it was none other than the frightened watchman, the watchman pointed at Ji Yan and said in horror: "But last night I obviously saw that divine beast grabbing you and flying in the sky!" I'm definitely not dazzled! ”

Ji Yan helplessly glanced back at Xiang Zixi, who was snickering, and explained lightly: "Then you must be dazzled!" I can't fly! If I was captured by a divine beast, how could I come back unharmed? You can see, I have a shadow, and ghosts have no shadow! ”

As soon as Ji Yan said this, everyone began to ask the watchman in disbelief: "Did you really see clearly that it was the divine beast that ate this young lady last night?"

The watchman was stunned, where did he see it? He saw a guy who was neither human nor ghost, pulling the handsome young offspring in front of him and disappearing from his eyes, and he really hadn't seen the specific scene!

When everyone saw the expression of the watchman, they immediately understood a little, and they all breathed a sigh of relief!

You know, it's really uncomfortable to be scared to death!

Finally explained the misunderstanding, Xiang Zixi can finally go back to her room to have a good rest, these days are in a hurry and catching ghosts, almost exhausted to death. Especially last night, it was a frightening thing, but fortunately, it proved that the divine beast did not exist, and I was finally relieved to sleep peacefully.

Xiang Zixi didn't even eat breakfast, rushed into the room, threw herself on the bed and fell asleep next to the pillow.

I haven't slept well after tossing for most of the night, and I can't stand it anymore! Not to mention Xiang Zixi, a woman who doesn't know martial arts.

Ji Yan sat in his room, thinking of what happened last night, and the girl who dressed by the river in the morning, which was engraved in his heart bit by bit. Ji Yan immediately understood that the traces of that girl had been imprinted in his heart, and he could no longer erase it.

Raising his head and pouring a cup of Chinese wine, Ji Yan gently closed his eyes. The responsibility is so heavy, do you really have the qualifications to like someone?

Slowly walked to the window and looked at the next room, Xiang Zixi must have forgotten to close the window and fell asleep, the spring breeze was blowing, and the bed curtain was faintly visible.

Xiang Zixi slept this night, and when she woke up, it was noon again, and it seemed that she couldn't go today.

Sleepy-eyed rubbed the corners of his eyes and walked out of the room, just in time to meet Ji Yan, who was standing at the railing at the door, looking down at the lively Ji Yan below, stretched his waist to Zixi, walked to Ji Yan's side, and said listlessly: "Don't you sleep for a while?" Aren't you sleepy? ”

"Get used to it! I can go three days and three nights without sleeping. Ji Yan lowered his head and looked at Xiang Zixi, who was almost a head shorter than himself, and handed over the wine jug in his hand: "Do you want to go tonight?" ”

Xiang Zixi's eyes glared: "Of course I'm going!" That damn beast, I didn't sleep well all night, how could it be so cheap! Really, I was scared half to death by myself! ”

Xiang Zixi didn't look at it, he raised his head and poured a sip of wine, his face was indignant, and he didn't notice that he was actually drinking wine from the wine pot that Ji Yan had drunk.

Ji Yan snorted, tried his best to hold back his laughter, and said in his heart, please my eldest lady, I was scared half to death by you last night, okay? Just the way you dress, who is going to be scared half to death, right?

"Let's go, let's eat!" Ji Yan patted Zi Xi's back and walked down first.

Looking at Ji Yan's back, Xiang Zixi suddenly remembered that he had carried himself to Baisong Village thirty miles away last night, and couldn't help but say to himself: "Is his martial arts so good?" Shouldn't I have to worry about that? As long as he's here, he'll protect me, right? ”

Ji Yan, who was walking in front, had amazing ear power, and naturally heard Xiang Zixi's words behind him word for word in his ears, this sometimes smart and sometimes confused Xiang Xiang, how can people not love and dislike?

asked for two dishes, Ji Yan and Xiang Zixi sat in the middle position, one is convenient, and the other is convenient to listen to gossip.

Sure enough, someone immediately started gossiping again.

"Alas, have you heard? That hurtful beast reappeared last night! "The first person started his gossip and broke the news.

"What else do I have to say! Isn't that what you see in this inn? The second person followed up and said: "But no one has seen the shadow of that monster, that is, a watchman who claims to have seen it with his own eyes, but when did the watchman ever tell the truth in his mouth!" Last year, he also claimed to have seen a meteor falling from the sky, and the meteor turned into a beautiful woman and landed in the direction of Wuxian! Can his words be taken seriously? ”

Xiang Zixi, who was eating, was choked all of a sudden, and coughed violently!

Meteors from the sky? Incarnate as a beauty? Landed in the direction of Wuxian? Why does it sound so familiar!

Ji Yan patted Zi Xi's back with concern: "What's wrong?" How can you eat carelessly? ”

Xiang Zixi waved his hand, indicating that he was fine, but his ears were pricked up, and he confidently listened to the gossip of those two people.

The first gossip person also laughed: "Also, that guy really doesn't have a few words of truth in his mouth." I don't know when this statement about the beast started, maybe it's really just a prank! ”

The second person nodded in agreement: "That is, as long as it is something that you haven't seen with your own eyes, then you must not believe it!" Where are there any mythical beasts in this world? I guess it's just a wild wolf or something, and then attacked a few people, and it's so exaggerated! It's just a rumor! ”

Xiang Zixi kept nodding while listening, yes, this rumor is indeed getting more and more mysterious, maybe, he is really scaring himself, and the existence of that old man may be just an accident!

At this time, the owner of the well-informed Yuelai Inn suddenly ran in mysteriously from outside, and as soon as he entered the door, he couldn't wait to shout: "The divine beast really appeared last night, and it was in the wild grave pile ten miles to the northeast!" Someone actually saw it with their own eyes! ”

Wow - this news is simply a live cat jumping into the boiling water, and it will fry the pot all of a sudden!

Everyone gathered around and asked what was going on, and Xiang Zixi, who was doing good things, also pricked up his ears, trying not to leave a word behind the innkeeper's words!

"People in the past were wrong, that divine beast was not a blue-faced fangs at all, nor was it a bloody mouth, but incarnated as a man who existed like Shura!" The innkeeper spat and said: "Last night, a merchant who stayed in the hotel said that he slept on the official road because he missed the accommodation, and when he got up in the middle of the night to relieve himself, he happened to see that scene, the divine beast slowly stood up from the ground, turned into a man, and then pounced on a group of people, and all of them were killed in an instant!" ”

Ji Yan's eyes widened suddenly!

Xiang Zixi shook his head and sighed after realizing it, and was even more sure that there must be divine beasts in this world.

Ji Yan suddenly put down his chopsticks and said, "I'm done eating, I'll go out for a walk first!" ”

Xiang Zixi was enjoying listening to it, waved his hand, signaled that Ji Yan could move freely, and continued to listen attentively to the innkeeper's story.

Ji Yan quickly left the inn and quickly rushed towards the northeast.

After a while, Ji Yan appeared in the wild grave that the innkeeper told about. The burials here are all outsiders, wanderers whose names are unknown, so there are weeds everywhere, and the mounds have fallen into disrepair and become much lower.

Ji Yan seriously patrolled the ground for a long time, and suddenly, his eyes were suddenly attracted by a flash on the ground, he lowered his body, pinched something with a handkerchief and slowly came to his eyes to look at it seriously, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Sure enough!" Are you going to force her away in this way? I have to say, she really eats this set! It's just, where does the other party want to force her? ”

Ji Yan sneered and straightened up, looked around, there was no trace on the ground, and it seemed that the other party had cleaned up quite cleanly. If it weren't for the fact that this mass grave is so messy, I might not have found this thing!

But who were the two gangs that fought last night? If their goal is really to be oriented, then what do they want?

Xiang Zixi, a self-proclaimed atheist, was listening to the ghost stories told by the innkeeper with relish at the moment, especially the part of the mythical beasts, and he was even more attentive to it, and he even forgot to eat.

When Ji Yan came back, Xiang Zixi's rice in the bowl didn't move at all.

Ji Yan looked at Xiang Zixi, who was aware of it, and shook his head helplessly in his heart and smiled bitterly. Being sluggish like this may not be a blessing!

"Ji Yan, you're back!" Seeing Ji Yan's figure, Xiang Zixi immediately beckoned to him: "Come over and listen, wow, what an incredible story!" By the way, a few of us are going to go in search of the beast together tonight, and you can come with you! ”

Ji Yan's heart sank: Was she really fooled?
