Chapter 12: The Infant Carp King
The mage jumped into the cave, but the man in black still did not move, allowing the mage to fall into the cave. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
I heard another scream from the cave, and the mage's exclamation: "Stygian water, a lot of stygian water, help!" ”
The man in black sighed and said, "I really don't know what this person's brain is made of, he is so smart, not only did he find the knife I hid, but I hid the dark water so hidden, he could find it." I really admire the five-body throw! ”
The man in black waved his sleeves, and a white light flashed, only to see the soil at the entrance of the cave collapsing, and the entrance of the cave was blocked.
At this time, the moon was in the middle of the sky, the sky was full of stars, dazzling, and the man in black picked up the flying yaksha made of straw, sighed, and groaned leisurely: "It seems that this star is not last night, for whom the wind is showing the middle of the night." Cheng Ying, Cheng Ying, do you know that I am doing all this for you. ”
I saw that the figure in black faded away, and finally disappeared in the air fluctuations.
Xiao Han and Cheng Ying didn't go back to school the next day, but they just helped all three of them ask for leave.
When Qing Fei woke up, it was noon the next day, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the sky was bright, and when he wanted to remember what had happened, he only felt a headache.
Xiao Han was by the bedside at this time, and when he saw Qingfei waking up, he asked, "Are you awake, do you feel okay?" ”
Qingfei asked, "What time is it, and how am I here?" ”
Xiao Han said: "That night, you were injured by the Flying Yaksha and were in a coma until now, it has been two days, and today is the Mid-Autumn Festival." ”
Qingfei only felt that his brain was in chaos, his memory was still vague, but he had a deep impression of the Flying Yaksha, and vaguely remembered that after being knocked down by the Flying Yaksha that day, his body was fine, and he was about to step forward to fight, only to see Sun Tingting being knocked down fiercely, and he suddenly had a headache, and then his eyes were dark, and he fainted.
Thinking of this, Qing Fei suddenly shouted, "Oh no! ”
Xiao Han said: "What's wrong?" ”
Qing Fei said: "I only took two days off, and now I have to go back first." ”
Xiao Han said: "Mid-Autumn Festival, don't you have a holiday?" ”
Qing Fei said: "Three hundred and sixty-five days a year, I go to work normally every day, and I strengthen my work during the New Year's holidays, and the security problem cannot be ignored." ”
Xiao Han said: "In this case, the treatment must be good." Are you in such a hurry to go back, and you will be paid three overtime hours today? ”
Qingfei sighed and said: "The salary is single times every New Year's holiday, especially when the Chinese New Year is the winter vacation of students, the salary is two thousand two hundred and fifty yuan, dead salary, and how many extra shifts are this money." ”
Xiao Han said: "Then why are you still working here?" ”
Qing Fei said: "It's too far to talk about life, dreams are as colorful and gorgeous as soap bubbles, but they are bursting at your fingertips, and now it's just a matter of eating and waiting for death." ”
Xiao Han said: "It's sad to be a dog in the fly camp, and it's a pity for you." ”
Qing Fei said: "There's nothing to be sorry about, I just know that if I don't go back today, I will have to deduct four days' wages, which is sad." ”
Xiao Han said: "Sun Tingting hasn't woken up yet. ”
Qing Fei said: "She just lacks a soul and a soul." Now only the heart of the baby carp king can save her, so I have to go back as soon as possible no matter what. ”
Xiao Han said suddenly: "You haven't seen her since you fell into a coma, how can you know so much about her situation?" It turns out that you are secretly guarding her, and the Taoist true qi on her body is also left by you, right? ”
Qing Fei nodded and said, "That's just a talisman true qi, so that she won't see the Yin Soul again." ”
Xiao Han said: "But the baby carp king is not easy to deal with, if only you could use the heart of an ordinary baby carp." ”
Qing Fei said: "It's not as difficult as I imagined. But the two of us are really weaker, and my soul is injured, and now I can't move. ”
Xiao Han said: "You mean to find someone to help?" ”
Qing Fei nodded and said, "Now there is only the person who goes to Kunlun, after all, we only know that he alone has the ability to help us." ”
Xiao Han said: "But the difficulty of finding him is not less difficult than killing the carp king." ”
Qing Fei said: "It was true before, but now we have a chance to find him." ”
Xiao Han said: "How did you find him?" ”
Qing Fei said: "Cheng Ying." ”
Xiao Han said: "Cheng Ying knows him? ”
Qing Fei said: "I don't know, but there have been a few times when Cheng Ying was in danger, and that person took action." ”
Xiao Han said: "Maybe he just happened to be passing by at the time, and they didn't know each other. ”
Qing Fei said: "I don't think it's a coincidence, especially when the Flying Yaksha pounced on Cheng Ying, that person made a move. It's just that his sword qi didn't break through the body defense of the Flying Yaksha, but only turned the Flying Yaksha in one direction. ”
Xiao Han said: "You were injured by his sword qi?" ”
Qing Fei said: "No, I just saw two sword wounds on the left wing of the Flying Yaksha, and I only made one sword, so I guessed so." ”
Xiao Han frowned and said, "But even if he can make a move for Cheng Ying, we can't put Cheng Ying in danger just to lure him out." ”
Qing Fei said: "There is no need to be dangerous, since that person is hiding by Cheng Ying's side, he must not want to be known by others, so it would be good to let Cheng Ying go to him alone." ”
Xiao Han said: "Even if you find him, tonight is the night of the full moon, the yin aura is too heavy, and the baby carp king is far more vicious than usual." ”
Qing Fei said: "You need to be careful about this. However, the baby carp king has to absorb the power of the moon on the night of the full moon, as long as it comes out of the water, no matter how vicious it is, there will be a bottom. ”
Xiao Han was stunned for a moment and said, "Isn't the baby carp king at the bottom of Mochou Lake?" ”
Qing Fei said: "There is a secret passage under the Lake Center Pavilion, and in the depths of the secret passage, the Infant Carp King has another nest. But I only glanced at it from a distance, and it was the full moon, and the carp king was sucking the moon in the cave. ”
Xiao Han said: "Is there water in the cave?" How can you be sure that one is the baby carp king? ”
Qing Fei said: "There is a waterhole in the cave, it should be connected to Mochou Lake, and we also have to prevent it from escaping into the water, only the baby carp king can go ashore, and the other baby carp can only stay in the water." ”
Xiao Han smiled: "You can learn so many secret things, you must have had a lot of adventures." ”
Qingfei said: "It's not an adventure, it was two years ago, when I just came out of work and liked to walk by Mochou Lake." One day, I saw a Taoist priest suddenly disappear in the pavilion in the middle of the lake. ”
Xiao Han said: "So you guess that there is a secret passage in the pavilion?" ”
Qingfei nodded and said, "But I didn't find the location of the agency at that time, and because of my work, it's unlikely that I'll be staying by the lake all the time." It wasn't until New Year's Day that year, when I was on duty at Zhongting, that I finally knew how that Taoist priest had disappeared. ”
Xiao Han said: "What does this have to do with Zhong Ting?" ”
Qing Fei said: "This matter really has nothing to do with Zhong Ting, but it also has something to do with it. ”
Xiao Han seemed very interested, and asked, "Could it be that the organ is located in the Zhong Pavilion?" ”
Qing Fei rolled his eyes and said, "These two places are at least a hundred meters apart, and they are separated by a lake in between, how can they set up an organ in these two places?" ”
Xiao Han said: "What does it matter?" ”
Qing Fei said, "Do you know the origin of that bell?" ”
Xiao Han shook his head.
Qingfei continued: "That bell is said to have been cast by Cixi to celebrate a victory of the Beiyang Sailors, and then it was placed in Yenching University, mainly for telling the time. Among the students, the custom of ringing the bell on New Year's Day was circulated, but later several cracks cracked on the bell, and the school forbade the students to ring the bell again on the grounds of protecting cultural relics. I was the one on duty on New Year's Day that year. ”
Xiao Han said: "The morning bell and dusk drum have the function of driving away evil spirits and suppressing demons, and this custom is probably also to please a good fortune." ”
Qingfei said: "That night, I also overheard two people talking about how they were waiting for the lights to be lit on the top of the lakeside water tower on the lake pavilion. Who knew that after they went, they saw that the pavilion in the middle of the lake was already crowded with people, so they could only go to the bell pavilion to ring the bell. ”
Xiao Han said: "The lake pavilion is a good place to enjoy the shadow of the lake light tower, the water tower has the custom of putting lights on New Year's Day, and it is not strange for some people to wait on the lake pavilion." ”
Qing Fei said: "But at that time, there was a building around the Huxin Pavilion that needed to be rebuilt, and the stone road was too slippery after the snow, and several paths around it were blocked, even if there were students going up, it would never crowd the Huxin Pavilion!" ”
Xiao Han said: "So you also sneaked up to take a look, right?" ”
Qing Fei nodded and said, "This time, I found that under the calm lake, not only is the dark tide turbulent, but also extremely weird. ”
Although Xiao Han didn't know what he saw, he remembered that day when he saw the baby carp, he felt that the house was full of ghosts during the day. At this time, a hand was on Xiao Han's shoulder, Xiao Han was startled, and he screamed "ah", and the people behind him also screamed.
Xiao Han looked back at Cheng Ying, and Cheng Ying said, "What are you talking about?" Qingfei has been in a coma for two days, and he just woke up and didn't let him rest well. I heard some baby carp outside, what was it? ”
Xiao Han said: "It's nothing, it's just talking about a medicine, which can help Sun Tingting recover and wake up quickly." ”
Cheng Ying was skeptical: "Really? ”
Qing Fei said: "It's true, but it's not easy to get this flavored medicine." ”
Cheng Ying said: "Why is it not easy? Is it dangerous? ”
It was a voice that said, "It's just a baby carp." ”
The three of them were all startled, this voice came so abruptly, and when the three of them looked around, they didn't see a single figure.
Cheng Yingdao: "Who is talking?" Where did he hide? ”
Xiao Han said: "Since Your Excellency has already come, why don't you show up and see it." ”
The man said, "Am I not sitting here?" You don't see me as your business. ”
Following the words, the three of them finally saw a man in black sitting at the table, holding a teapot in his left hand and pouring tea.
I saw that although he was really sitting there, he gave people a feeling of indescribability and incomprehension, as if he was blended in with the surrounding environment and did not attract attention. It was as if his body was shrouded in a layer of mist, and it was impossible for people to see it really.
Cheng Ying asked, "Who are you?" ”
The man's face was very modest, and he said, "My name is Li Kunlun." ”
Cheng Ying said: "What are you doing here?" ”
Li Kunlun said: "I'm looking for you." ”
Cheng Ying felt very strange and said, "Do we know each other?" ”
Li Kunlun said: "I know you, but you will never know me." ”
Cheng Ying said: "Since I don't know you, what are you looking for me to do?" ”
Li Kunlun said: "I'll give you two gifts." ”
Cheng Ying said: "I don't know you, and I can't accept your gifts." ”
Li Kunlun's expression was a little gloomy, and he took out a straw-tied Flying Yaksha, and said, "Since you don't want it, then there is no need for it to exist." ”
Xiao Han saw the scarecrow's flying yaksha, and there were faint traces of blood on it. Xiao Han already knew in his heart, and said, "How is that warlock?" ”
Li Kunlun said: "He is probably dead." I haven't confirmed it. ”
Xiao Han said: "You killed it?" ”
Li Kunlun said: "I didn't kill him, but he died because of me." ”
Cheng Ying said: "What are you talking about? Who died? ”
Xiao Han said: "It's the warlock who summoned the Flying Yaksha to kill us, the Flying Yaksha made of straw is what he used to do it, and he may also be the one who took away the soul of your roommate." ”
Xiao Han said: "Have you ever seen something sealed with a talisman in the place where the warlock practiced, maybe it was a bamboo tube, maybe it was an altar or something. ”
Li Kunlun said: "You might as well go find it yourself." ”
Qing Fei said: "Where is the place where the warlock opened the altar?" ”
Li Kunlun said: "Villa in the western suburbs." ”
Xiao Han said: "Is it a villa with weeds overgrown in the courtyard, like an abandoned garden?" ”
Li Kunlun said: "You also know that place? ”
Xiao Han hurriedly said, "What does that warlock look like?" How old is it? ”
Li Kunlun said: "About forty years old, I look very ordinary. Do you know him? ”
Xiao Han shook his head and said, "I don't know." Have you ever seen a young man in that villa with a gentle face and dressed in white? ”
Li Kunlun said: "There are no other living people there except bats. ”
Cheng Ying knew that Xiao Han was worried about Yue Buqun, so he pulled his arm and said, "Maybe they have already left, after all, it's just that Yue Zhongming likes to live there, and Yue Buqun lives in the school." ”
Xiao Han felt a little calmer, and said to Li Kunlun: "Can you do us a favor?" ”
Li Kunlun said: "Go and kill that baby carp king?" ”
Xiao Han nodded and said, "Not bad!" The three of us will definitely be able to kill the baby carp king and get the baby carp heart to save Sun Tingting. ”
"I'm not going to help you." Li Kunlun looked at Cheng Ying and said, "This is the second gift I want to give to Cheng Ying, but unfortunately she doesn't like it, you better figure it out by yourself in this matter." ”
Cheng Ying said: "Can you kill the baby carp king and get the baby carp heart?" ”
Li Kunlun said: "If you like it, I'll pick it up and give it to you." ”
Cheng Ying looked at Xiao Han and said, "Is there only one way?" ”
Xiao Han said: "I don't have any other way. ”
Cheng Ying said: "Okay, I'm looking forward to your gift now." ”
Li Kunlun's face suddenly showed a happy look, and he said, "I will definitely take the baby carp heart and give it to you." ”
Qing Fei said: "Now is not the time, that baby carp is a spirit in the water, there are more than a dozen baby carp in the water, they can only outwit, not the enemy." ”
Li Kunlun said: "I just want to ask you about the situation of that tunnel, otherwise why would I show up." ”
Qingfei continued the previous story, saying, "When I arrived at the Lake Pavilion, I found that there was no human figure at all, and there were only my footprints on the surrounding snow. ”
Xiao Han said: "Could it be that those two students are lying to you?" ”
Qing Fei said: "At this moment, the bell rang, and a hole was revealed in the middle of the Lake Pavilion. ”
