Chapter 13: Strange

Qiong Yi's self-muttering was particularly eary at night, and a black figure suddenly stood up on the riverbank beside her, which frightened Qiong Yi like a frightened rabbit, and jumped up a few feet away from the river: "Ah! ”

Sheng Xuan blocked his ears with resentment, and after confirming that she was Qiong Yi, he silently withdrew the dandruff in his eyes: "Why are you here?" ”

Joan also pointed at him with her mouth open, her fingers trembling: "Me? Why are you here? Didn't you go back a long time ago? ”

She added, "Why do you stand on the side of the road at night and be scary?" Who would have thought that there was a big living person sitting motionless on the stone steps, I thought it was a stone, and suddenly got up, scared me to death......"

"Lu Qiongyi." Sheng Xuan complained.

Joan also frowned: "? ”

"I said that I won't be called Lu Qiongyi, if Sheng Gongzi wants to call me, let's call me Lu Xiyan." Joan glanced at him and let out a sigh of relief.

Sheng Xuan was stunned: "Oh, I forgot." ”

"Then you're really a noble person."

"You're not going back to school, and you don't have a place to live yet?" Sheng Xuanyan walked up from under the river steps, stood in front of Qiong Yi and asked.

Qiong Yi only felt as if there was a wall in front of him, tall and straight, he didn't look up, and he could only see his collar when he looked up, so he turned around halfway: "Of course there is a place to live, one hundred and fifty wen a night." ”

Sheng Xuanyan didn't realize that it was Qiong who was blocking his words, but he was silent, thinking that he had said it to death.

Joan also looked up, only to see him pursing his lips silently, the eyes under the sword eyebrows were dark and deep, and the eyelashes were slender and slender upwards.

It's really a picturesque face, it's easy to see everywhere and can be called beautiful, but it's clearly a man.

In order to hide the fact that she was stunned, Joan also asked, "Why are you still here?" ”

Sheng Xuanyan lifted the package in his hand: "I bought it an elbow to go back at night, but it didn't seem to be able to bite its mouth, so I came out again to buy it some cut cooked meat and goat's milk." ”

Qiong also smacked her lips: Vicious dog, vicious dog, you really fly on the branches and become a phoenix, and the food you eat is better than mine.

"Did you name it?" Joan also asked with a smile on her face.

Sheng Xuan replied honestly: "No, I won't take it." ”

"What's wrong with this, dogs are generally named according to their coat color, white hair is called Xiaobai, yellow hair is called Xiaohuang, black hair is called Xiaohei, flower hair is called Xiaohua, no matter how bad it is, it is called Wangcai." The more Qiong Yi spoke, the more numb she became, and when she wanted to continue talking, Sheng Xuan's expression froze, and he suddenly stepped forward to grab her wrist, grabbing her whole person and freezing in place.

"Sheng Xuan resents you ......"

Lu Xiyan said. When you went back that night, didn't you clear your mind and get rid of evil spirits? Sheng Xuan's brows were half twisted, and Qiong Yi's words were stopped alive in his throat.

Joan also suddenly remembered: "I...... Forget, does it matter? ”

Sheng Xuanyan let go of her hand, and his expression was cold: "Tomorrow after school, you leave later, I'll bring you a few talismans." ”

Qiong also didn't know why: "Sheng Xuan, you can be clear, what's wrong?" ”

Sheng Xuan asked rhetorically: "Haven't you encountered strange things in the past few days?" ”

To talk about the strange things in the past few days, there are a lot of strange things, Qiong Yizai carefully recalled the days of living in the inn, such as always hearing walking and moving, knocking on the door, hearing the laughter of men and women at night, the things in the room will be moved, or there are some more gadgets, but these strange inns are not worth mentioning at all, and Qiong does not take them to heart at all.

"You...... Don't scare me, I'm very timid. Joan's voice was weak.

Sheng Xuan looked at her resentfully: "Your cultivation is not shallow, nothing will happen." After he finished speaking, he picked up the previous topic and said, "I will refer to the name you gave, thank you." ”

With that, he turned around and left.

Only Joan, who was aroused in fear, was also messy in the autumn wind.

She really didn't know if Sheng Xuanyan said this, whether he wanted to remind her or scare her. But whether his intentions were good or bad, Joan was frightened.

*

Joan also trotted back to the inn with her sword in hand, and the innkeeper lit a small candlestick to send her back to her room.

"Man, I couldn't sleep last night when I heard the noise upstairs, why don't you go up and help me persuade them not to walk around tonight, okay?"

Hearing Qiong Yi say this, the shopkeeper yawned and went upstairs to help her ask, but walked down with a strange face: "Girl, no one has lived upstairs in the past few days, I asked a few rooms around, and they all said that there was no movement, and they never heard any movement." ”

When Qiong Yi heard this, she almost turned her back, tried her best to control her expression, and said Okay, I know.

No movement?

But she can hear it every night these nights!

Joan thought about it again.

No, I stayed at the inn for one night and didn't hear a single murmur.

It was my first night at the inn.

The sound has been there since the second night!

It wasn't because the next night, she went into that strange grove and encountered a ghost hitting the wall!

Qiong Yi's back was cold, and the more she thought about it, the more scared she became: Could it be that the thing I met in the forest was eyeing me?

In this way, strange noises can be heard night after night......

Qiong Yi curled up in the quilt and didn't dare to close her eyes, staring at the candle on the table in a daze, hoping to fall asleep unconsciously when sleepiness came.

The time was getting later and later, and the candles in the house were getting darker and darker, and the candles were finally burned out, and the house fell into darkness. Qiong Yiben was a little sleepy, and dimly noticed that it was dark in the room, and subconsciously closed her eyes, but at this moment, there was a sound of "knock knock knock-" by the window, and the sound was so loud that she suddenly woke up.

Joan was also like a great enemy, she opened her eyes and looked around the room, holding her sword string song with both hands, thinking in her head: This is the second floor of the inn, how can someone knock on the window outside?

I don't know where she got the courage, she resolutely got out of bed and walked to the window.

The window slammed, and Joan trembled with her hands, and without doing anything, she pulled out the wooden window latch and pushed the window open with force.

What catches your eye is an extremely terrifying human face!

"Ahh

Joan was so startled that a fish jumped to her feet and found that it was already dawn.

She patted her face, and felt a slight pain, only to realize that the ghost with a white face and a long tongue who opened the window just now turned out to be a nightmare.

"It's a dream...... Joan exhaled, "It's a ......dream," she patted her chest to steady herself, and when she turned to get out of bed, her eyes fell on the wide open window, and she froze like petrified.

Why are the windows open?

Wasn't that a dream just now, it was real last night......

Qiong Yi couldn't stay for a second, so she hurriedly pushed the door and left the inn.

*

Institutions.

After the morning class, Qiong Yi received the most happy news that made her feel that since she called Yize.

A disciple came to her at the utility office and told her that the new dormitory had been packed up, and he was inviting her to come and have a look.

Qiong Yi's lodging was not connected to the dormitory of the disciples of Jixue, but turned around the wooden house behind a small courtyard, and heard that the disciple said that the high-rise house was full, and only scattered empty houses were left, and I hoped that Miss Lu would not mind.

One person lives in a single room, and Joan is too late to say thank you, where will he mind.

The wooden house seems to have been repaired for some years, oozing out the old variegated color, and the house is very clean and tidy. After Qiong also sent off the disciples in the miscellaneous office, she thought about going to the inn to retrieve her luggage and settle it down.

She dotted the ornaments in the house and thought of Sheng Xuan's resentment. He told him last night that she should wait for him after class today.

But this man didn't come to the lecture today!

I didn't even see Su Ye with him.

"So I'm being released a pigeon?" Qiong Yi crossed his waist and thought, "I knew that when I was scared last night, I didn't want to rely on his unfinished talisman. ”

What happened last night was very strange, and Joan couldn't remember what she saw when she opened the window, or whether she had opened the window or not, and couldn't tell if it was a dream or if it was real.

It was very insecure to be alone, and Joan also left the Shinjuku room to find her brothers and sisters, yawning and walking out.

Near noon, the sky suddenly changed, it rained lightly, and the autumn rain was drizzling, a little chilly.

Qiong also sat on the bench by the porch with Yang Xiaosi and Lu Li to chat. Yichuan seems to have entered autumn earlier than Guangyang, and the heavy mountains in the distance are significantly blue in the thin smoke, and they are far away and not close to people. Last night's rest was very bad, causing Qiong to be sleepy now, groggy and sleepy for a while, mixed with some dreams that I couldn't remember clearly last night.

"Senior sister!"

Yang Xiaosi beside her shook her awake, "Are you so sleepy?" ”

Qiong also propped her head and said in a daze: "Didn't I just tell you about last night?" I wasn't disturbed and didn't sleep well...... Sleepy, my head still hurts. She stood up and wanted to sober up for a while, when she saw a man coming around the corner of the corridor, it was the one who had released her dove today, and she turned her face away to pretend to see the scenery.

Sheng Xuanren walked from the corner, dressed in an indigo robe, with a high collar and a straight neck, looking extraordinarily prosperous. The ponytail is high and neat. He walked a few steps to Qiong Yi's side and stopped.

"Lu Xiyan." Sheng Xuan complained to her, "I'm coming to you." ”

Joan also said goodbye and turned away: "Didn't you ask me to wait for you after class today?" As a result, you are not there. ”

Sheng Xuan bowed his head and said, "Something didn't come." After a pause, he said, "You come with me, and I'll explain to you later." ”

Joan also said, "You tell me what is the matter first, otherwise I won't go." ”

Sheng Xuan groaned for a moment: "Catch ghosts." ”

Hearing this, Qiong also directly refused: "I won't go." ”

"Why?" Sheng Xuan hurriedly said: "That evil thing has a ...... with you"

"Why do you call me when you know I'm scared?" Joan also opened her watery eyes and asked.

Lu Li blocked Qiong Ye behind him: "Master Sheng, my senior sister really can't deal with sneakiness, you can find someone else to help you catch ghosts, don't catch my senior sister." ”

Yang Xiaosi also hugged Qiong Yi and said, "Yes, Xiao Gongzi Sheng, my senior sister must have difficulties if she doesn't want to go, and you also know that she can't catch ghosts, so don't make it difficult for others." ”

Sheng Xuan was very puzzled, his tone was slightly deep, and he asked Qiong Yi, "Are you so afraid?" That's just a little ghost, it can scare you like this, because you are still a disciple of the Lu Sect Master. ”

After he finished speaking, he glanced over: "It's also a shame that your cultivation is not low, but you are cowardly like this......"

Qiong also gritted his teeth: "Sheng Xuan's resentment! ”

She angrily pulled her younger siblings and turned around and left: "Let's go." ”

"Joan." Sheng Xuan complained to her, "Don't go." ”

Qiong Yi's fire is even stronger: "You are not allowed to call me Qiong Yi!" ”

She turned her head and smashed her head and face: "Sheng Xuan, you are really funny, you really want to ask me to hunt ghosts, can't you explain the reason?" What do you mean that I am a disciple of the Lu family, so I can't be afraid of ghosts? The Sheng family has eliminated evil since ancient times, and you are not afraid of ghosts and evil spirits, don't let yourself and others do it, okay? ”

"Senior sister, don't be angry......"

Qiong also covered her head a little dizzy, and staggered, but the words in her mouth didn't stop at all: "What do you mean by 'cultivation is not low, cowardly and sneaky', and not everyone practices swords to exorcise evil spirits and eliminate ghosts, why do you say this about me?" ……”

Sheng Xuan complained for the first time that he was pointed at his nose and scolded, and he was silent for a long time.

"I'm sorry." He said, "I ...... I didn't expect that. ”

"I didn't think about it, I'm sorry to make you angry."
