Lutai Town was very lively in the afternoon, probably because the residents believed the announcement of the yamen, and the demon had been caught, so it was restored to its former vitality. Street stalls, jugglers, snacks, etc., have sprung up one after another.

Xuanji walked from this stall to that stall, looking at the wooden toys for a while, and touching all kinds of stone root carvings, and the leisurely appearance did not look like she was trying to save people, but like she was here to go shopping.

Zhong Minyan pulled her sleeve behind her and said in a low voice, "Hey, can you get down to business first?" I want to go shopping and then have time to shop. ”

Xuanji stuffed a mouthful of steamed cake and said vaguely, "I know, but you two look so nervous, as if you want to do something bad." Everybody's looking at you. ”

The two hurriedly looked around, and sure enough, many people were staring at them, and some were whispering.

Yu Sifeng's face changed, and he hurriedly pulled Xuanji and whispered: "Then what should I do?" They, they, don't they, know, what we're going to do, what we're going to do? ”

Xuanji shrugged her shoulders: "How would they know. As long as you two stop being ghostly, and you're about to do bad things, of course no one will look at you. ”

She stuffed a sugar gourd for him, "Oh, eat it." ”

Yu Sifeng hesitantly stuffed the sugar gourd into his mouth, and his face suddenly eased: "Hmm, it's delicious!" ”

"Really?" Zhong Minyan also took one, "It's so sweet!" …… No, it's sour! He spat out with a bitter face, "Where is it delicious!" ”

Xuanji and Yu Sifeng laughed, and finally even Zhong Minyan touched his head and laughed.

"You're not scared now, are you?" Xuanji said slowly, "To do great things, stability is the key...... That's what Daddy used to say. If you're afraid, you're going to be bad. ”

Yu Sifeng showed a yearning look: "Master Chu, what you said is right." Xuanji is right. Master they, before, never, told me about this. It turns out that a, a good sect, is not only to cultivate immortals, but also to learn, to be a person, and to be a man. ”

Zhong Minyan couldn't help but laugh at him every time he heard him stammering in Zhongyuan, so he simply slapped him on the back and laughed: "Then you just join our Shaoyang faction!" By the way, I also learn the Central Plains dialect well! ”

Being by Xuanji like this, the two of them were no longer as nervous as before.

Turning the corner, the yamen is in front. The huge glass jar was still placed there, and there were many fewer onlookers, but for some reason, there were twice as many officials around the guards as last time, and they almost circled the glazed jar.

"There are too many officials, and we must try to avoid conflicts." Zhong Minyan hid in the dark and took a closer look, "Come, Xuanji, let's go over first." ”

He pulled Xuanji's sleeve, pretended to be an ordinary passerby, and stood on tiptoe in front of the glass jar.

The water in the glass jar is not clearer than that day, probably because someone smashed too many things into it, it became muddy and yellow, the water surface was lifeless, there was no ripple, and I don't know if the merman is still alive.

"It'...... Isn't it dead? Xuanji asked softly.

Zhong Minyan shook his head, and was about to speak, when the official who guarded the front smiled and said, "I can't die!" Little sister, you don't know, demons don't die so easily. I'm going to be escorted to Beijing in two days! ”

Xuanji let out an "oh" and looked up at him very sincerely, "Uncle, can I get closer?" I haven't seen a yokai yet. ”

The official hesitated, "I'm just afraid...... Not good. This monster is very ugly, and my little sister will have nightmares when she sees it. ”

Xuanji frowned slightly: "Just take a look, okay?" ”

The official couldn't resist the pleading of the pretty little girl, and finally relented and let her in.

Xuanji walked in front of the glass jar, and this was the second time she had approached the merman. She remembered the first time she saw him, he looked at her with those wise eyes, and his eyes were full of sorrow, and strangely enough, this sadness was calm, as if he didn't care that he was treated like this.

She reached out and tapped lightly on the glass jar, and the water in the jar suddenly changed, as if something was swimming in it. Immediately after, a pale face appeared, clinging to the walls of the tank.

He seemed to know that she was coming, and he didn't move, just watched her quietly. After a while, the corners of her lips hooked, and she actually gave her a smile.

Xuanji couldn't help but let out an "ah", and the official behind hurriedly hugged her away, and said again: "I'm scared!" This demon is cunning! ”

After saying that, he kicked the tank, and the pale face quickly disappeared into the murky water.

Xuanji was shocked and said softly: "His face ...... So many injuries! ”

The official said with a smile: "I told you not to look at it." Alright, let's go home. ”

Xuanji reluctantly glanced at the glass jar, and then turned around and left. Zhong Minyan followed her, and the two found an alley to hide, covering the black cloth at the same time.

"Did you see him?" Zhong Minyan asked.

Xuanji nodded: "He has a lot of injuries on his body, but some of them don't look like they were stoned." Someone may have bound him with chains, as if there were traces of a whip......"

"He was abused?!" Zhong Minyan was a little angry, "This shark is too useless, if it is a demon, how can it be abused by others so easily!" ”

Xuanji sighed: "He looks very weak...... Don't talk about that. It seems that Si Feng is about to start! ”

The two of them hid behind the wall with bated breath and watched, and not far away, Yu Sifeng made a hidden gesture to them, and the two immediately understood, and put the black cloth on their heads, leaving only the two holes in front of them.

Yu Sifeng pretended to be a passerby, stopped in front of the glass jar and looked at it for a long time, then slowly retreated behind the crowd, saw a gap, pinched out an iron projectile from the skin, poured out his true qi, and bounced out silently.

Everyone only heard a "whoosh" sound, followed by the glass jar snapping and shattering, and the turbid water poured out. For a time, the scene was chaotic, people hid, screamed, and were in a daze, and even the guards were in chaos, looking for suspicious characters everywhere like headless flies.

Yu Sifeng took the opportunity to rush forward, shot like electricity, first lit the acupoints of the few people who were guarding around the glass tank, and then threw the smoke bombs that had been prepared on the ground.

With a "plop" sound, light purple smoke rose from the ground, and the taste was extremely spicy. Now people are even more chaotic, and the officials who don't know why can't see anything, so they can only shout desperately: "Look at the glass jar!" Look at the yokai! ”

Just as they straightened their throats and shouted, Xuanji and Zhong Minyan had already secretly taken away the merman who was lying on the ground and couldn't move.

When the smoke finally cleared, people rubbed their eyes full of tears, and when they came to look for it again, they found that there was nothing left in the broken glass jar, only the large and small stones at the bottom of the jar, laughing at them silently.
