Chapter 52: The Resentment of the Deep House (10)
On the boulder by the pool, Sang Ling was lowering her head and concentrating on applying medicine and bandaging, and she didn't realize that a black shadow behind her was slowly approaching.
And yet at this very moment!
There was a sudden "click" sound behind him—obviously the dead branches on the ground had been crushed, and the sound was very small, but it stood out very clearly in the silent night.
Sang Ling was so startled that a spirit turned to look, and not far away, only the half-cut dead branch was lying there, and there was no one around.
She looked around, not daring to let her guard down.
At this time, a dark cloud happened to float in the sky, covering the crescent moon, and the surrounding light suddenly dimmed. It was vague and seemed to be covered with a black cloth.
No!
It's not because of the dark clouds!
It's yin!
At some point, the originally thin and normal yin qi in the surrounding air increased at a strange and slow speed, gradually increasing and covering a lot of light.
But the most abnormal thing is that during the day, there is no evil smell, and at night, there is no evil smell. Could it be that the evil in the deep house has never appeared? Or was it never at all?
According to common sense, the existence or absence of evil is related to the smell of evil spirits.
In the cultivation realm, monks often like to use evil spirits to collectively refer to the chaotic alien race, but there are many sources of evil, there are demons and some monks, the sources are different, and the cultivation and appearance of the evil cults that become evil in the end are inconsistent. But the difference is that the evil ones are all bloody, completely lose their minds, only murderous tyranny, and are aggressive to both the demon race and the human race, and they need to be strangled with all their might.
In the past, she and Xie Hanzhou also strangled a few together on the way to Silk City, and she learned a little bit about how to judge and deal with them.
Now, that bit of fur can't tell if there is any evil around it, and I don't know if the evil is hidden.
The thoughts in her mind were flying, but Sang Ling's hands were extremely fast, tying a handkerchief with half of her right hand with one hand, quickly bypassing a few times, and tying a knot. A pair of eyes kept a close eye on the surrounding movements, guarding against a sudden attack from anything.
But no, nothing, the voice just now appeared as if it were an illusion.
After a while, when her right hand was all right, the thing still didn't come out again, and it didn't even have an evil aura.
Sang Ling's eyebrows were tightened, this thing has not come out, and it is not a way, it is still necessary to meet Su Luo first.
Moving towards the flower hall under his feet, the tip of his nose has always been a smell of earth with a little watery smell, very normal, not very smelly, except for the sudden increase in the smell of yin qi, there is no abnormal ferocity in the rest, and there is no demonic energy, everything is so calm as if this deep house is just a gloomy place.
It's quiet, as if the villagers and puppeteers have made trouble in the deep house of evil monsters, which is just a wild rumor that people make up nonsense and three people become tigers.
Sang Ling didn't feel relaxed, and the hesitation in her heart was widened.
The original careless mood of coming here to take Kui Yin soil suddenly turned into all vigilance.
Mobilizing her aura to alert her whole body, she carefully turned around and returned to the original flower hall.
It's just that the flower hall is as quiet as ever, empty, and Su Luo doesn't know where he went. Entering through the door, the begonia flowers on the table inside the door are still blooming, but there is no person who makes the flowers.
Now.
The fire was blazing, and everything was around, except for the tea bowl that had been half cleaned up, leaving only half of the broken porcelain in place—
Obviously, the people who stayed here should have something urgent to do, and left in a hurry.
Sang Ling pursed her lips, lowered her eyes and looked at the half of the broken porcelain piece on the ground, feeling a little guilty in her heart.
"I dropped his things and scolded him, which seems to be a bit excessive."
Grinding under her feet, grinding the broken porcelain back and forth a few times, she made up her mind:
"Let's get the people back first, Kuiyintu, huh...... You can also look for people and soil at the same time. ”
Feeling that he was not delayed, the extremely smart Sang Ling puffed up her chest and walked out of the flower hall with a majestic stride.
From the front yard all the way to the backyard safely, the expression on Sang Ling's face turned solemn at this time.
The feet are non-stop, walking with the wind, and the yin qi floats shallowly on the ground, and is also surging with the air flow under the feet.
Looking at it from afar, the entire lower body is about to be caught by yin qi.
"It's so heavy yin, the backyard is more condensed and thick than the front yard, and even this road is not clear. But why is there only yin energy, and not that evil energy? ”
Just now, the pond where she was located was a shallow pond near the flower hall, although because of yesterday's rain, the water volume had risen a lot, and the smell of water wafting in the air had become heavier. But at night, except for the extra yin qi, the rest is no different from the appearance of the day.
It's just that this situation, when it comes to the backyard, begins to be completely different.
The ghost is aura, and it is as dark as fog that it is impossible to see clearly. The wild and barren in the daytime has become eerie and strange at this time. Under the layers of black, Mo said that the surrounding environment, even the corridor next to his feet, was so blurred that he could only see a little outline.
Don't say that Kuiyin soil, under such a vision, even such a big living person Su Luo can't see it.
Sang Ling walked in the backyard garden, which was blocked by begonia flowers during the day, and the flower branches that I originally thought were wild and interesting have now become obstacles, and it is difficult to see the way back under the heavy shadows.
Walking more and more slowly, and finally Sang Ling immediately stepped under her feet, and she couldn't go anymore. I always felt that something was looking at her all the time, and that kind of cold gaze was simply like a fish in the throat, creepy.
"It's better to go back first, at least until Su Luo comes back."
Just as he was about to turn away, suddenly there was a loud wind behind him-
Time.
The night wind howled, swept in, rushed into the corridor like a substance, and in a trance, only to feel the ghost laughing, and came to the underworld.
Countless flowery branches and willow trees were blown up, blocking Sang Ling's way forward like ghost hands, obviously the evil was about to start working behind his back.
Sang Ling hurriedly dodged sideways, but she still couldn't dodge, and the black mist in front of her instantly rushed in front of her, and the extremely heavy yin qi almost penetrated vertically from her eyes.
Electrifying flint!
There was a sense of coolness on the eyeballs at first, and in an instant, the taste of ice penetrating into the bones had crawled into the eyeballs and drilled into the brain.
Suddenly, she was shocked, her brain was foggy like boiling porridge soup, fluttering and bubbling and struggling to lose any reason. I couldn't raise my hand to cover my eyes, intending to pull out the yin qi that was like substance, but before my hand was raised too high, I was already powerless to fall.
At the end of her gaze, the willow tree was turning and spinning, and she was stumbling to the ground.
Inadvertently, the beast bag on his waist was pressed to his side, and the beast bag immediately shook from side to side, as if he sensed the danger of his master, and was so anxious that he wanted to wake up his master desperately.
It's just that Sang Ling's boiling porridge soup at this time seemed to have finally broken through the lid of the rational pot, and a stinging sound of "poof" suddenly sounded in her ears, and her eyes went dark, completely unconscious......
"This stupid hamster, where did he go to the nest, why hasn't he come back! Do you want me to admit my mistakes with her and tolerate her vexatiousness? Impossible, absolutely impossible! ”
Flower Hall.
Su Luo didn't expect that he had waited for a long time, but he still didn't see the stupid hamster come back, the night is different from the day, the evil likes to appear at night, on the one hand, the sun burns and damages the body, and on the other hand, they are easier to camouflage and increase their strength in the night.
If it goes on like this, the stupid hamster's departure is to put himself in danger alone!
I waited left and right and waited for no one to come back, and I was afraid that after I went out, the stupid hamster would come back. Dilemma, Su Luo turned around anxiously, and suddenly stopped, and he suddenly thought of a small episode before-
He was cleaning up the tea bowls on the ground, and suddenly heard a little noise outside the flower hall, so he naturally went out to check. But after some exploration, I didn't find anything, and then I came back, and I didn't see the stupid hamster come back until now.
But if so?
In the interval between his departures from the flower hall, did the stupid hamster come back?
When she saw that she was gone, she went out to look for him again. Therefore, he can't wait for anyone left and right now!
With this assumption, the strange sound became very suspicious.
"Pretending to be a ghost? Scold. ”
Su Luo sneered, wrote a note, pressed the corner directly under the jade bottle on the table, and directly raised his feet to find someone.
The note is just a simple explanation of the stupid hamster, and when you come back, don't go out again, so as not to be designed by evil. But in fact, considering the very likely conjecture just now, this note is just in case.
In a hurry, after turning around the front yard, seeing that no one was found, Su Luo turned around and went straight to the backyard.
The backyard was eerie, and when I saw that another living person was coming, more yin qi swept in from all directions, intending to have a full meal, and swallowed this person into my stomach.
Under the corridor, the young man's straight spine gradually began to be covered by the yin qi, and quickly disappeared into the twilight.
......
Meanwhile.
The Ribbon City closed the guest house.
The candle flame in the room flickered, and before a wisp of black smoke could be extinguished in time, the candle extinguishing hook that held the candle center had fallen out of his hand.
"Bang dang", not hesitating to a shocking thunder, instantly woke up the people in the house.
Xie Hanzhou raised his hand and unconsciously covered his heart.
The feeling of the aura pouring into the position of the entanglement spell only appeared for a moment and disappeared, as if the owner of the other end was a little abnormal.
Xie Hanzhou's eyebrows were slightly together, and he was about to raise his hand to pinch the trick, when a gentle voice suddenly came from the oblique stab, interrupting the movement in his hand.
"Hanzhou, what are you thinking?"
On the other side, the woman who had just entered the door smiled at him, like a fairy in the Moon Palace, unstained with dust, noble and cold.
"It's the master who sent a message saying that he was coming over, are you worried about the events of the nine-story pagoda that day, can't you explain it to the master? Don't worry, you let them go that day because of me, when I saw me fall into the hands of those mysterious people. It's not your fault that I'll explain all this to Master. ”
Xie Hanzhou looked at her silently, only lightly hid his hand in his sleeve and put it behind his back:
"This matter is very important, and I will explain it to Master."
"Hanzhou, this matter is not entirely yours, you don't have to bear it all in order to protect me."
Lu Chaoyan was a little disapproving, but more worried.
has been like this since childhood, Han Zhou will always take responsibility for himself in front of the master, but this time is different, the matter of the nine-story tower will fall on his head alone, and the punishment will not be a half-star.
Lu Chaoyan still wanted to persuade, but the communication jade pendant on his waist suddenly lit up.
After a moment, she said directly:
"Han Zhou, I just received a summons from Master, his merchant ship is about to arrive at the port of Zezhou, and we should set off to pick up Master."
Xuan Chengzi actually arrived early.
Xie Hanzhou's eyes must have returned to normal in an instant, and he raised his feet first, Lu Chaoyan followed closely behind, walking side by side with him, looking like a pair from a distance.
