Chapter 2: Monster Life
The Baijia School is located in the west of Baifu, and to the east is the side gate of Baifu, and to the west is the largest bazaar in Qingyun City.
Bai Mengjin came out of the school and did not return to Baifu, but went to the market.
is different from what many people think, she is a demon with a very consistent state of mind, and she has no demons.
How hard is it for a teenager? It's all over, what are you thinking about? She is now super superb, and she has to tremble three times when she stomps her feet to cultivate the immortal realm, and those people in the Bai family who used to bully her have long since passed away, where is it worth her to spend a little more effort?
So this illusion is particularly strange.
In general, illusions serve two purposes. The first is to attack people's mental weakness and break the Dao mind. The second is to show what you want to see the most, which makes people indulge.
This past of the Bai family, for Bai Mengjin, is neither.
This is strange, since the reincarnation mirror is a treasure of antiquity, it won't be so effective, right? What about the ability to move mountains and seas and change lives against the sky?
Therefore, Bai Mengjin decided to go to the market to explore. Qingyun City is a big city where immortals and mortals live together, and the more people there are, the easier it is to show flaws.
Entering the bazaar, there were unexpectedly many people, and the vendors and tourists were rubbing shoulders one after another, and the cries of selling came and went.
Bai Mengjin looked all the way over, and his brows became tighter and tighter.
She couldn't find anything wrong, as if these were real people.
Isn't this a fantasy? What's that? A separate small world in the mirror of reincarnation?
Unable to find an answer for a while, Bai Mengjin casually found a tea stall and sat and thought about life.
She took two sips of tea absentmindedly, and suddenly heard a delicate female voice in her ears.
"Senior brother, it's been a long time since we left, let's rest for a while!"
Then a familiar male voice teased: "You see that this tea fruit is good-looking, and you want to eat it, right?" ”
was debunked, and the female voice was coquettish: "Okay, no!" ”
The senior brother was helpless and doting: "Can you still say it?" You can order whatever you want to eat, and my brother will treat you. ”
The female voice cheered and couldn't wait to call Xiao Er.
Bai Mengjin turned his head when he heard the sound and saw a man and a woman sitting at the next table, wearing similar apricot-colored robes. The woman was a little girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, with a pretty face and childishness; She had just seen the man before she closed her eyes, but her temperament was much younger - Huo Chongxiao, it turned out to be Huo Chongxiao!
Her first reaction was to cover her face, if Huo Chongxiao entered this illusion with her, it would obviously be inappropriate to turn her face now, and her cultivation had not yet returned!
But then she paused as she listened to the two of them.
She also recognized this little girl, it was Huo Chongxiao's younger sister Yue Yunqiao, the two were childhood sweethearts, and their relationship was excellent. It's just that not long after she started, Yue Yunqiao died in a demon hunting operation, Huo Chongxiao was greatly stimulated, and his temperament changed greatly after that.
If this person was really Huo Chongxiao, it would be impossible for him to behave so briskly when he saw his junior sister who was thinking day and night in the illusion.
Could it be that he doesn't remember anything? Or is he also a fantasy person?
Bai Mengjin had doubts in his heart, so he listened to them carefully.
Yue Yunqiao had a lively temperament, and she chattered and commented on the tea fruit before talking about other topics.
"Senior brother, we've been checking for several days, but we haven't found any problems, is there really a monster in this Qingyun City?"
Huo Chongxiao took a sip of tea and replied, "The missing people in the city, either boys and girls, or young children, are the favorite sacrifices of monsters. ”
"But it's also possible that it's a human trafficker!"
"You're right, but if it's a trafficker, the compass won't react. This was reported by the witcher, and most of it is true. ”
In the world of cultivating immortals, in addition to the major immortal sects and families, there are also a lot of scattered cultivators. Most of them make a living by hunting demons, and if they encounter something that cannot be solved, they will turn to the fairy gate for help.
At this point in reality, Bai Mengjin didn't know that Huo Chongxiao had been to Qingyun City, let alone heard that there had been monsters, was this an incident made up by the illusion?
She had an inexplicable sense of foreboding.
"Anyway, it's quite strange, let's be careful." After Huo Chongxiao finished speaking, he paid for the tea and left with Yue Yunqiao.
Bai Mengjin thought about it, dropped the two money, and followed.
The brothers and sisters left the bazaar and headed for the southern city. It is a densely populated place where the three religions and nine streams live.
Huo Chongxiao knocked on a door, and a woman with red and swollen eyes looked at them suspiciously: "The two of you are ......"
"Auntie, it was Immortal Master Liu who recommended us here."
This Liu Immortal Master should be the demon hunter who reported it, the woman suddenly realized, and hurriedly stretched out her hand: "Immortal Master, please come in, the house is simple, I hope you don't dislike it." ”
Huo Chongxiao showed a polite smile: "How come, there is Aunt Lao." ”
When the brother and sister entered, the door was closed.
Bai Mengjin's ears were not strong enough to hear them speak, and after a little thought, he took out the stack of spirit runes from his arms, took out one of them, and folded them into paper cranes.
She blew, "Go!" ”
The paper crane turned into a flying insect and lay on the crack of the door, and the sound inside reached her ears.
"The eldest girl didn't see her that night, and she blamed me, knowing that it was not peaceful outside, so I didn't pick her up, but I didn't come back."
"Which way does she usually go? What time do you get home? ”
"Generally, take Giethoorn Street, there are restaurants there, and it is more lively. The eldest girl has always been well-behaved, and she will come back after work, and she will arrive home at the latest in the second shift. ”
Huo Chongxiao asked about the side again, and finally asked for a big girl's belongings.
The woman asked expectantly, "Immortal Master, can my eldest girl come back?" ”
Huo Chongxiao was silent for a moment: "I haven't found it yet, I don't know if I am below." ”
The woman began to weep again: "Others say that my eldest girl was captured and eaten by monsters. ”
Huo Chongxiao comforted a few words and took Yue Yunqiao to leave.
"Senior brother, what should I do next?" Yue Yunqiao asked.
Huo Chongxiao thought for a while: "Wait until it gets dark, summon the spirits and take a look." ”
When the school was out of school, it was almost dark at this time, and Bai Mengjin simply didn't go back, and followed their brothers and sisters from afar.
The two walked down Giethoorn Street and finally stopped at a remote and deserted corner.
"Senior brother, I feel that the yin qi here is relatively heavy."
"So be it. Stuff out. ”
"Okay."
Yue Yunqiao took out the rune pen and ink, and watched Huo Chongxiao draw a simple soul conjuring array on the ground.
And it came to pass after a short time, when it was completely dark, that he took out the veil he had asked for from the woman, and burned it in the midst of the array.
The black smoke rose, the conjuring array reacted, and there seemed to be invisible things gathered around, but after waiting for a long time and there was no follow-up movement, Huo Chongxiao's expression gradually became solemn.
Bai Mengjin also frowned. The Soul Summoning Array sensed the breath, indicating that she was indeed dead, but she had not been able to summon a complete soul for so long, and the problem was a bit big.
Danxia Palace's soul conjuring array is as easy as recruiting a mortal, if you can't summon it, either the soul is gone, or it is detained.
In Qingyun City, there are really monsters!
How can this be reasonable, the big devil is here, which monster doesn't have long eyes?!
At this time, something flashed on the wall behind Yue Yunqiao, and the two of them didn't notice it.
In an emergency, Bai Mengjin pinched a finger and drew an invisible rune: "Be careful!" ”
