Chapter Five: Clouds

The sunset reflected half of the sky, and the sea reflected the fiery red waves.

Qiu Xiao approached the beach barefoot, letting the waves run over his feet, he enjoyed the tranquility.

Wei Qing walked to his side, lowered his head to look at the layers of waves, and asked, "Do you have something on your mind?" ”

Qiu Xiao has always had doubts in his heart, the memory of the encounter in Shenshuling eight years ago slowly recovered in the days that followed, the black-robed man who instantly killed the green python demon like a divine soldier descending from the sky, and the sentence he passed into his mind; Find the Mist and live.

Who the hell is the black-robed man? Why is there a sense of déjà vu?

What is Obsidian Mist? Person's name? Not like.

Sect organization? Or is it a place name? Or is it a magic weapon?

So he asked Wei Qing: "Do you know Yaowu?" ”

Wei Qing held her chin and thought about it, as if she had read it in an ancient book, she remembered it and said, "Do you know the demon star?" It only appears once every thousand years, and this mist is a magic weapon used by the human saint to kill the demon star a thousand years ago, and it is said that it has been collected by the royal family in the imperial city of Tiandu, but that thing has been scrapped, and it can only be made into a collection. ”

She then asked, "What's the matter, are you interested in that thing?" The heavenly capital is heavily guarded, and even the top assassins of our secret sect are difficult to touch. ”

The light and shadow of the Shadow Gate, that is, the two branches of the Shadow Gate, the light corresponds to the demon hunting faction, and the shadow corresponds to the dark faction, and Wei Qing is in the dark faction.

Qiu Xiao rolled his eyes at Wei Qing: "What do you want, I won't steal it." ”

As for this cloud of doubt in my heart, I still have a long way to go, so I can slowly explore the mystery in the future.

......

There are all kinds of stalls on both sides of the street, fragrant food, delicate and small ornaments, rare and old antiques, etc., and the traffic is very lively.

A white-haired man in the crowd was very conspicuous, he was tall and slender, and he was more outstanding in the crowd, he was a member of the seventh squad of the Shadow Gate Demon Hunter Sect, and the innocent-looking girl he was holding was also a member of the seventh squad, Snow Deer.

"The bounty of this ticket is enough for the two of us to last half of our lives, why don't we go to Flea Street and open a tavern after we are done? Live a quiet life. The white wolf said as he looked at the bustling shops on the street.

The ghoul commission is indeed very rewarding, but such commissions are very rare and unavoidable, and of course, the more lucrative the reward, the more dangerous the entrusted task.

"You're still not a man, can you be a little self-motivated." Snow Deer elbowed the white wolf's waist.

The white wolf said helplessly: "Hey, it's too tiring to live by licking the blood on the tip of the knife, and what if I die on a mission one day?" You will be a widow. ”

Snow Deer interrupted him; "Shut up, you."

The two of them went to the blacksmith to retrieve their weapons, but the original weapons were damaged and could not be repaired during the last time they captured the monsters, so they recustomized two new weapons.

"Hey, do you think that's the Falcon kid?" The white wolf squinted and looked at a tall building in the distance, and on the top of the building sat a young man wearing a gray scarf, who was looking at the moon in a daze.

Snow Deer was puzzled; "It's strange that he likes to climb to such a high place, isn't he afraid of falling?"

The white wolf said; "That falcon kid has a really weird personality and doesn't like to talk, but he's quite close to Red Pupil."

As soon as she said the red pupils, stars appeared in Xuelu's eyes, and she said; "Anyway, this young man is not bad, he has strong ability and good character, and he is mainly handsome!"

The white wolf was a little jealous, withdrew his hand around the snow deer, and said; "Then you go to him."

"Hahaha, you vinegar jar, I'll tease you!" Xuelu grabbed the white wolf's hand and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to a fun place!" ”

"Where?" The white wolf was involuntarily led by the snow deer and ran towards Huyu Street.

The tall building in the distance is called Tiangong Tower, there are eighteen floors, a place of entertainment composed of wine shop and green building, the green building in Tiangong Tower is known as the best green building in the whole Youzhou, the women in it are all beautiful and fragrant, the most famous is their exotic Oiran Qu Meiwei, it is said that she can make men disarm with just her eyes, so many people are famous to come to play.

Because Haohai City is near the sea, the port is open, and there are a lot of merchant ships coming and going, so there are many exotic beauties who are smuggled or come from official labor to stay here, mainly because the master of Tiangonglou is willing to spend money, and the remuneration he gives is usually twice as high as that given by other places, so the price of Tiangonglou is also higher, usually ordinary people can't afford to play, and a little money can only come here to drink a good wine, as for going upstairs for a night of spring supper, it has to be the number one in this Haohai City or a noble son with a lot of money.

After drinking, several drunks staggered upstairs to the roof to get some fresh air, and the falcon heard the movement and looked back, and then he got up silently and prepared to go downstairs.

"Hey!"

A drunk man shouted.

The falcon ignored him and walked straight to the stairs.

Unexpectedly, the drunk man chased after him, grabbed the gray scarf of the falcon from behind, opened his mouth and said, "Boy! Your ear.. Deaf?! ”

A smell of wine came to my face.

"Do you know who he is! Brat. Another drunk man pretended.

Falcon said two words in a cold tone: "Let go." ”

The drunken man with his scarf was obviously a little irritated by the cold and arrogant appearance of the falcon, and he stared at the words and spat out the words one by one: "I ask if you know who I am!" ”

The falcon clenched his fists and gave the drunken one last chance, and without letting go, he struck him, and the falcon warned, "Three, two..."

Before the falcon could finish counting, the drunk man suddenly let go of his hand, covered his eyes with one hand and wiped his tears with the other and rolled on the ground: "Actually, I don't know who I am!" Woooooooo

Several other drunks also came over, lying on the drunks lying on the ground, and vented their inner pressure by going crazy with the strength of alcohol.

The falcon smoothed his scarf and cursed in a low voice, "Idiot." ”

Then he left the Tiangong Tower and disappeared into the dimly lit alley.

The sun and the moon have changed, and it is time to set off, and today the sun is hidden, the sun is very weak, and there is a howling wind outside.

Qiu Xiao packed up his equipment and prepared to go to the city gate to join the team, Wei Qing was on the pure white tower, lying behind the guardrail and shouting: "You have to come back alive!" ”

"Good!" Qiu Xiao responded loudly.

Every time Qiu Xiao goes out on a mission, Wei Qing will tell him like this, after all, they have been good friends for eight years, and Qiu Xiao has never let her down, no matter whether the mission is successful or not, he can return safely every time.

But this time, the sky was full of clouds.
