Chapter 275: Return to Cardamom (2)
It had been a long time since the sword had flown and Xie Qian had even forgotten what the spell was. When she was worried about Yingqiu, Jiang Chetong had already taken the Shisheng sword and dangled it in front of her.
He stretched out his hand to Xie Qian and said gently: "Two people, you don't have to ride the same sword." ”
Xie Qian frowned, and finally understood why he was so infatuated with Jiang Chetong in his last life. It turns out that he has been so flirtatious since the beginning of his love!
Shi Shengjian flew slowly, and his destination was Jimo, a small fishing village near the sea.
Regarding this task, Xie Qian almost forgot about it. Jiang Chetong patiently explained to her that the whole task was actually to investigate a strange blood bead.
Half a year ago, a fisherman was fishing at sea when he accidentally fished a bead that seemed to be stained red with blood. He looked at the crystal clear blood bead and thought that it could be sold for a high price, so he brought it home together.
And something strange happened that night.
The fisherman slept until midnight when he was suddenly woken up by a cold wind. He thought he hadn't closed the window, but when he got up, he saw that the beads of blood were glistening, and the cold wind was coming from near the beads.
He leaned over curiously, his fingers touching the beads, feeling them as cold as ice.
Frightened and curious, he decided to observe for a while. Unexpectedly, there seemed to be a huge wind blowing in the beads, which overturned his whole person. His body hit the wall and he quickly fainted.
When I woke up again, it was already early the next morning. He rubbed his eyes and observed for a while, and found that he had been on the bed, and the bead had not moved. He frowned and touched it, and there was no cold feeling.
He thought maybe he had a dream last night, so he didn't care. He took the beads to the pawnshop to sell them, and in order to sell them for a high price, he told his own experience.
But none of the people in the pawnshop had ever seen such beads, and the strangeness of what he said thought was bragging. They sent the fisherman back with the beads to wait for him, and then to make an offer for him to-morrow.
But the fisherman was still apprehensive about what had happened last night, and instead of taking the beads with him in the house, he put them on the ground in the yard.
In the evening, strange things happen again.
The beads emitted a blinding red light, accompanied by a roaring sound, waking up the neighbors around them. Worried that the fisherman's house was on fire, they opened the windows to check on the situation.
Seeing clearly that it was the light emitted by the beads, they all turned blue with fright, and went back to their rooms in a panic. Some of them were speculating that maybe the fisherman had brought back a youkai.
The fisherman was also too scared to touch the bead. He found a pot of water and poured it over, but he didn't expect the water to turn into ice in an instant when the beads were lifted!
The ice swayed and flew up, striking at the people around who were watching the excitement. The people who were gathered rolled their eyes and fell to the ground, unable to move, except for one or two who escaped by closing the windows in a panic.
The fisherman closed the window in fright, shivering with his back against the window. The ice hit the window and didn't hurt him in the slightest.
I don't know if it was enraged, the blood beads staggered up from the ground, hissing and slamming into the window. Immediately after, a hand reached out from the blood bead and grabbed his neck, dragging his spirit directly into the blood bead!
People who were not hit by the ice cubes saw this scene in a daze and fainted on the spot.
When they woke up the next day, they found them in their yard and understood that what had happened last night was definitely not a dream.
One of them went to the fisherman's house, and found him lying on the ground dead, and the bead of blood was gone.
After narrating, Jiang Chetong sighed and said: "Later, the blood beads seem to have life, and they will appear in a certain household for a while. And wherever it appears, the same strange thing will happen. ”
There are also people who think about throwing away blood beads after seeing them. But it is of no use at all, and within an hour of throwing it away, the blood beads will reappear.
Last month, those who disappeared suddenly appeared in the sub-hour. When they saw people, they would attack, and for a while, everyone in Jimo was in danger.
This is much more wonderful than those little books written by the people.
Xie Qian excitedly conjured up a handful of melon seeds, and motioned for Jiang Chetong to continue while knocking.
Jiang Chetong looked at her a little speechlessly, then pinched his eyebrows to get used to himself, and said, "Let's go to Jimo this time, at least three or four days, at most ten days, you have to be prepared." ”
"It's nice to live by the sea!" Xie Qian replied seriously.
You can watch the sunrise and sunset, it should be a very romantic thing. There are not so many annoying things now, it is a life that Xie Qian can't ask for.
Jiang Chetong glanced at Xie Qian and advised, "If you are afraid or can't cope with it, I will protect you, so don't worry." ”
In fact, Xie Qian was not worried at all, just thinking about how to stay by the sea for a few more days.
Soon the two of them landed in Jimo.
This is a small fish town, and the residents make a living by fishing on weekdays. The streets are as prosperous as Qizhou City, and people get along harmoniously.
Walking on the street, you can feel the sea breeze blowing, and the cool smell of fish is faint. Xie Qian didn't feel annoying, but enjoyed it very much.
Jiang Chetong walked around the street vigilantly, making sure that there was no special aura, so he was relieved.
In order to satisfy Xie Qian's thoughts, he specially found an inn where he could see the sea. Two rooms were selected, and Xie Qian was asked to put the luggage first, and then the two went to the beach to investigate.
Xie Qian was so happy that he even forgot the purpose of his visit. She didn't bring anything, but she felt that the saber on her waist was too much of a hindrance, so she threw it directly on the bed.
Looking at herself in the mirror with her hair in a bun, she thought that since she came to the beach, she should dress up more. So, she gave full play to her aesthetics, which she had lived for nearly a hundred years, and put on a relatively feminine hairstyle.
Over there, Jiang Chetong packed up his house and came over and knocked on the door.
Xie Qian smiled and went to open the door, her eyes twinkling like stars. Her appearance was already outstanding, but now she is even more eye-catching in the crowd when she dresses up.
Jiang Chetong stood at the gate and looked at her for a long time, until Xie Qian blinked his eyes and asked where he was going, then he reacted.
He cleared his throat and replied, "Wan Tong, you look good like this." ”
"I think so too." Xie Qian narrowed his eyes and said, then his eyes turned to the street, "Let's go to the sea and have a look, I want to see that blood bead earlier." ”
As she spoke, she dragged Jiang Chetong and jumped towards the sea.
Jiang Chetong was dragged and forced to walk forward, but his eyes never opened from her slender back.
Since the morning, he felt that something was wrong with Xie Qian, as if he was ...... Changed a person.
