Chapter 52: Brother, You're so Charismatic
The moon stars are scarce.
The bleak moonlight sprinkled down, covering the entire Yang City like frost.
Two figures bathed in the moonlight, walking down the street.
It was Luo Xiu and Jiao Sai who came out on a mission.
Luo Xiu was carrying a black cat Qiqi on his shoulders, dressed in a white robe with cloud patterns, and his handsome appearance with a faint smile, chatting with Jiao Sai about tonight's task.
Different from the last mission in the Taiyin Mountain Range, this mission is in Yang City, basically there will be no risks, even if there is a real accident, it can completely shake people, so whether it is Jiao Saiyi or Luo Xiu, it is very easy.
"Brother Jiao, isn't there Jiuding's imitation suppression in Yangcheng? How can there be ghosts? ”
Luo Xiu asked with some curiosity.
Jiao Sai explained: "Although there are Jiuding imitations in Yangcheng to suppress luck and prevent all kinds of evil things, it is impossible to cover every corner of such a large city, especially some special nodes, such as places where the yin qi is relatively heavy or connected to the outside world, it is normal for evil things to be born by chance.
However, most of these evil creatures have average strength and only dare to come out at night.
This time, the banshee we have to deal with is on the side of the Crescent Lake, according to the clues investigated by those spirit officials, it seems that a little lady did not accept the persecution of her family and committed suicide by jumping into the river. ”
"So miserable?"
Luo Xiu was a little surprised, obviously he didn't expect the plot to be so bloody.
"It is said that the little lady was still pregnant, and her parents pressed her, and she did not want to say the man's name, which eventually led to this tragedy."
Jiao Sai pursed his lips and said with some disdain.
"The man never showed up?"
Luo Xiu asked.
"If it happens, there will be no such tragedy, but this little lady is blind and has been deceived in vain."
Jiao Sai sighed lightly and complained about this little lady.
Scum...... Luo Xiu commented in his heart, but continued to ask, "Didn't find out the identity of that man?" ”
"There is no proof of death, how can you check? By the time our Spirit Mansion intervened, that little lady had already turned into a ghost. ”
"After the death of a woman turned into a ghost, although there is still some reason and memory, but most of them are people who hate her to death, and it is too difficult to know the truth from the mouth of a ghost, in other words, they are all dead brains, it is difficult to communicate."
Jiao Sai spread his hands and shook his head helplessly.
Got it.
Luo Xiu nodded, and roughly sorted out in his heart: the ignorant girl was deceived by a scumbag to become pregnant, and her parents forced her to tell the man's name, she would rather die than commit suicide by jumping into the river.
This plot looks very brainless and bloody, but not all love brains are like this, especially in ancient times, women who have never read books or been on the Internet, when they encounter love, they feel that they have encountered everything, and they don't feel that they have suffered when they are scourged by scumbags, and even hate their parents.
In fact, this is almost the same in both modern and ancient times.
Love is never reasonable.
It's a pity that I can't even experience it if I want to...... Luo Xiu sighed in his heart, but he asked, "Then how will you deal with that female ghost?" ”
"Kill directly, because of this female ghost, a few people died in the area of Crescent Lake."
Jiao Sai's eyes flashed slightly, and he said lightly.
It is natural for ghosts to harm people, because most of them were killed by people in their lifetime, so after turning into ghosts, they will instinctively harm others, rather than directly take revenge.
“…… Got it. ”
Luo Xiu nodded and answered.
……
Crescent Lake.
A lake in the south of Yangcheng is named Crescent Lake because it resembles a crescent moon.
The scenery around it is beautiful, especially at night.
I don't know if it's the moon in the sky or the moon in the water.
In the past, there were many human races and demon clans who came here, but recently, this place seems a little lonely and bleak, just because there are ghosts in this lake, and many children have been dragged down one after another, resulting in this area becoming a forbidden area, controlled by the border army and spirit officers in the city.
Sure enough, it's still safe in the city.
When Luo Xiu saw this scene, he muttered in his heart.
Compared with the Taiyin Mountains, Yangcheng obviously attaches more importance to this matter, so it is not without reason that the housing prices in Yangcheng are high, and the closer to the Lingfu, the higher the price.
Fortunately, Luo Xiu didn't need to worry about this, and he could directly move in with his bag after detecting the spiritual root.
Food, clothing, housing and transportation, all inclusive.
If you want to marry a daughter-in-law in the future, Daqian can also be assigned, but the assigned daughter-in-law is generally not a monk.
"I'm sorry to keep watch around."
After Jiao Sai arrived, he skillfully arranged it, letting the junior disciples who were not strong in combat carry the array flags and talismans to block the surroundings of Crescent Lake, and he took Luo Xiu directly towards Crescent Lake.
Soon, the two came to the lake.
The silent surface of the lake is like a mirror, reflecting the moon in the sky.
"What's next?"
Luo Xiu looked at Jiao Sai and asked inexperienced.
Jiao Sai looked at Luo Xiu, raised his head slightly, motioned for Luo Xiu to stick his head towards the lake, and explained: "This female ghost seems to hate handsome men very much. ”
“…… Brother Jiao, are you using me to fish? ”
Luo Xiu couldn't help but glance at Jiao Sai and said with some dissatisfaction.
"If I could, I would have gone on a long time ago, still waiting for you?"
Jiao Sai looked at Luo Xiu with some envy, he was still quite jealous of Luo Xiu's face, as a man, he was a native of Yangcheng, and his appearance was slightly rough.
I believe in you...... Luo Xiu poked out a face, facing the calm lake, that handsome face was directly presented in the lake, and he nodded slightly for a while, although Jiao Sai is sometimes unreliable, but he still has an eye for appreciating beauty.
"Brother Jiao, I'm just so useful for facing the lake?"
"A dead horse is a live horse doctor, you can't jump into the water to find it, if Sister Ling is here, it's okay, let's just forget it, jump in and don't hang up directly, then it's a big shame."
"Okay."
Luo Xiu replied helplessly, sat directly on the shore, his head facing the lake, and casually pulled out a dog's tail from the ground and held it at the corner of his mouth, chewing the end with his teeth, the slightly bitter taste made him focus gradually, and he was also very curious about what this female ghost looked like.
Jiao Sai leaned against the trunk of a tree beside him, closed his eyes and waited for the ghost to appear.
Minutes and seconds passed.
Luo Xiu gradually admired his beauty in the prosperous world, and at the same time he was a little suspicious that Jiao Sai's words were unreliable.
Can a female ghost really fish like this?
"Meow~"
Suddenly, Qiqi, who was quiet at the shoulder, exploded and shouted at the center of the lake.
The moment the voice fell.
Luo Xiu and Jiao Sai also looked over, and suddenly found a figure in a big red dress floating in the middle of the lake.
The head is covered with black hair, the feet are hanging in the air, and the wet clothes wrap the delicate body, but there is no sense of charm, but there is an indescribable eerie weirdness.
"Is that her?"
Luo Xiu stared at the other party, and asked without looking back, and at the same time, the sword in his hand had already appeared in the palm of his hand, he was trained by Luan Peiyun to react to stress, and he drew his sword first when he encountered danger.
"It should be."
Jiao Sai hadn't seen it either, but the one in front of him must be a ghost, and it was a female ghost.
The figure can't be faked.
"Do ghosts have shadows?"
Luo Xiu was a little curious, looking at the shadow of the female ghost reflected on the surface of the lake, according to the old man when he was a child, the ghost has no shadow.
“??”
Jiao Sai felt that Luo Xiu's brain circuit was a bit strange.
But soon, something even stranger happened, I saw the figure of a female ghost reflected on the surface of the lake actually floated up from the water, rippling on the silent lake.
With the emergence of this female ghost, the female ghost who was originally standing on the surface of the lake stepped back slightly, and a cold aura spread, and even the surface of the Crescent Moon Lake was covered with white mist.
it!
When Luo Xiu saw this scene, he couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth in his heart.
Jiao Sai couldn't help but say: "Brother, you are so charming, even this kind of old ghost is attracted to you." ”
