Sixty-seven Flower City
"Senior brother, look, Huale City." Yue Rong pointed to the beautiful and magnificent city tower in front of him, the brown city wall is about three zhang high, there are soldiers standing on the city wall, all of them are majestic, and there is a plaque hanging in the center of the city wall, on which the dragon and the phoenix dance are written with three big characters - Huale City.
Yun Yan looked in the direction of Yue Rong's finger and whispered, "I see." ”
Zhu Xingmian smiled lightly, "This Huale City looks like a rich city. ”
Bai Yu shook the white folding fan in his hand, "Don't look for flowers on other islands, go back to the pond and fold lotus." Flowers, flowers, the name of this city is elegant. ”
The four of them talked and laughed, showed the guards at the door the road guide, and entered Huale City smoothly.
The city was bustling with people, pedestrians, horse-drawn carriages, and the penetrating shouts of hawkers on the streets.
"Hey, this city looks lively." Yue Rong looked east and west, this was the biggest town they had traveled all the way, "Why don't we stay here for a few more days?" ”
Yue Rong glanced at Bai Yu, and naturally shook the pot to him, "Bai Yu has been sleeping with us for so long, he must be tired, we can just take a good rest." ”
Bai Yu's folding fan slapped on his left hand and put it away, and he jumped out and said, "Eh, Moon Girl, you want to stay here and eat deliciously, but don't pull me, I'm not tired at all." ”
Yue Rong learned from Bai Yu's usual green tea appearance, and said in a coquettish voice, "I'm sorry, Bai Yu, I'm just worried about your body, I'm nosy."
After Yue Rong finished speaking, she made a sad look again.
When Zhu Xingmian heard this, he looked at Bai Yu disapprovingly, "Senior sister is also worried about your body. ”
Bai Yu grinded his back molars, and the girl of Yuerong dared to smile at him sly and proudly.
But Bai Yu has also figured out this time, the senior sister is the lifeblood of Zhu Xingmian, and the senior brother is a grass on the side of the road to Zhu Xingmian.
He pretended to be annoyed and innocent, and thanked Yue Rong, "Thank you for your concern, I was reckless just now, and apologize to Miss Yue." ”
Yue Rong hurriedly picked up Bai Yu and said with a smile, "A little thing, it's not so solemn." ”
They were chatting and laughing on the crowded streets, preparing to find an inn to stay in.
The red buildings and green tiles fell behind them one after another, and they walked across a stone bridge, and saw in the distance a large number of people gathered on the other side of the street.
"Senior brother, there are a lot of people there."
As soon as Yun Yan heard Yue Rong say this, she immediately understood that she wanted to go over and join in the fun.
"Check it out."
Yue Rong approached the square and found that in the center of the field was a Taoist priest holding a wooden sword to set up a table, the Taoist priest was wearing a gray-white Taoist robe, a few pieces of rune paper pressed under the incense case, there were words in his mouth, and strange footwork was walking under his feet.
Yue Rong was even more excited when he saw that it was a Taoist priest, could he have something to do with the Taoist priest who harmed Qinglian?
Although Yue Rong knew that this was unlikely, there were so many Taoist priests in the world, and anyone could pretend to be a Taoist priest, how could it be so coincidental that they met again.
And this Taoist priest doesn't look like a powerful person, but like a street liar who is swaggering.
Her gaze moved back, behind the Taoist priest was the main entrance of a house, with red walls and green tiles, carved beams and painted buildings, the threshold was high enough to reach the calf of the moon banyan, and the delicate decoration inside could be vaguely seen from the half-open door, and the word Ningfu was written on the red red door.
What's going on in this Ning Mansion? Don't ask the government to ask for God and Buddha.
Yue Rong asked a lady who was watching around her, "Auntie, what's going on in this Ning Mansion?" ”
"Hey, Ningfu married, but who expected to be targeted by ghosts, Ningfu specially invited capable people to come to protect him in order to seek peace."
"Ghost hands?" Yue Rong tilted her head, "Could it be that Ningfu is haunted?" ”
"It's not that Guangning Mansion is haunted, it's the whole city. This ghost hand, no one knows who he is, he comes and goes without a trace, he, every month, he will choose a family in advance and snatch his bride. ”
"This flower thief is too hateful!"
"Not a flower thief!" The eldest lady shook her head again and again, lowered her voice and said, "It's a ghost that harms people's lives!" When the bride was found again, there was only a dry corpse left! ”
"The ghost hand smashed into the chest to take out the bride's internal organs, and then sucked the blood from the bride's whole body, leaving only a dried corpse."
Yue Rong was listening carefully to the eldest mother, and suddenly felt the breath of aura flowing in the air, and she was busy looking at the Taoist priest who was doing it.
It turns out that this guy is not a swagger! He's got a bit of a real skill!
It's just that Yue Rong only felt an extremely thin aura from him, which was not worth mentioning to her, but it was more than enough to deal with humans.
"By the way, when will the Ning Mansion hold a happy event?"
"A week later."
After the Taoist priest in the center of the field finished his practice, Yue Rong raised his head, and a layer of extremely thin aura formed a protective shield to guard the entire Ning Mansion.
If it's just an ordinary demon, the ability of the Taoist priest is enough to deal with it.
"Who is this Taoist priest?"
The enthusiastic lady once again solved the puzzle for Yue Rong, "He is the Haotian Dao Master of the nearby Baiyun Temple, I heard that he is extremely powerful." Ning Mansion has paid a lot of money, so please move the road to the horse. ”
"I don't know if the Haotian Dao Elder can save the bride of the Ning family from the hands of the ghost."
When the people of Ning Mansion saw that the Haotian Dao Master had finished doing the Dharma work, they all gathered around to inquire about the results, and their faces were full of respect.
"Don't worry." Haotian Dao Chang was full of anger, "With this way, there will be no return to that demon!" ”
When the master of the Ning family heard this, his face was overjoyed, and the expression on his face became more and more respectful, and he invited the Haotian Dao Master into the door to talk in detail.
The little Taoist priest brought by Haotian Daoist cleaned up the incense case, and the people dispersed one after another when they saw that there was no excitement, but they were still talking about the happy events of the Ning family, and some people even bet on the spot whether the daughter-in-law of the Ning family would be killed by ghost hands.
"Senior brother, what do you think about this?" Yue Rong asked, "Is it really the demon who did it?" ”
Along the way, they passed through large and small towns, and most of them were peaceful, and there were no demons and evil spirits.
The situation in Southridge is extremely rare.
Yun Yan: "Dissecting the heart and taking blood is like a means of evil cultivation. ”
Yue Rong recalled the Taoist priest who had just done it, and was a little worried, "What can I do about this?" Senior brother, should we stay and take a look? It is a life that can be saved. ”
Bai Yu shook his fan and said, "Didn't Ning Mansion invite a Taoist priest?" I've heard them say that the Haotian Dao Master is a very powerful Dao Master. ”
Zhu Xingmian explained softly, "That Taoist priest has some magical powers, but he is not very powerful. ”
Bai Yu scratched his head and said, "It's not as good as you, but it should be no problem to fight a small monster." ”
"This demon only strikes once a month, picking on the bride, ghost hands, ghost hands, it doesn't sound like a very powerful demon."
When Zhu Xingmian heard this, he sighed lightly, "It would be nice if we could see the corpse of the previous victim, and it would be convenient for us to judge." ”
