Chapter 55: Spiritual Migration
"Don't! Stay back! She subconsciously closed her eyes, her voice trembling.
"Oops...... You seem to be scared......" The long ghostly voice laughed, sounding like laughter and crying: "Oops... Just right...... Just right, as long as I take you, I can ......"
Joan also felt something slippery and greasy grasping her boots, extending a little bit to her calves, and suddenly she was creepy, and when she looked down, her feet were densely covered with red faces, and she could barely see the hideous sneering rotten faces and struggling to grab her stump and broken arm.
"Ahh …… Don't touch me! She shook off her ankle-grabbing hand and ran forward, but she was too panicked to run away, and fell to the ground. Joan also propped herself up, her hand touching her slippery face on the ground and looking at it, her breathing stopped in her nose, and her mind went blank.
What to do?
…… What to do?
The saber is at the waist, I can ......
Joan also wanted to raise her hand, but she couldn't move because of fear in her heart.
"Take her away...... Take her away...... Hurry up ......"
“…… Otherwise, what was promised to him would not be completed...... Delicious corpses...... Nor will they give us ......."
A hand grabbed her wrist and dragged her down, Joan also broke free of that hand, and another hand grabbed her, the stench of rotting corpses was smoking, and she was dizzy, "Let go!" …… Let me go! ”
"Joan Yi!" Behind him, Sheng Xuan's resentful shouts came, and before the sound could be heard, there was a hurried footstep.
"How could anyone come! …… This breath ...... Damn it! Damn it! ……”
“…… Come on...... It's too late...... ......"
The ground shook for a while, and the face and arms vanished.
Sheng Xuan complained that he went to look for Qiong Yi after "please bless", but when he saw that she was no longer in the same place, he searched everywhere and did not find it for a long time. Expecting the worst, he jumped over the final boundaries of the lantern festival and entered the underworld.
"Sheng Xuan!" Qiong Yi hugged Sheng Xuan, who was half-squatting behind her, "Sheng Xuan...... Sheng Jun! ”
Seeing her frightened face, Sheng Xuan patted her on the back, a little guilty and a little distressed, and comforted: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm here." ”
Joan hugged him to death, buried her head on his shoulder, and couldn't say a word.
There was a strong ghost aura just now, and he ran very fast. Sheng Xuan hugged her shoulders and thought with doubts: How did Qiong Yi get in, isn't it......
"Hey, why is this sister still here? Didn't get taken away? The boy who had been crying in the street had stepped into the Infernal Realm, and he played with the cold hand stove in his hand and laughed, "Huh? Why are you crying, you can't be scared, right? Then he chuckled.
Sheng Xuan looked at him resentfully, already understanding why Joan was here.
"Big brother, this sister is very good to me, and she said that she would give me lanterns." The boy squinted, "Can you give her to me?" ”
Sheng Xuanyan frowned, his eyes were cold: What is this kid talking about?
The boy looked back, and his immature voice was full of sarcasm, "The young master is coming, I'll run first, and her things will be returned to you, although the fart is useless, the ice is going to die." After speaking, he smashed the hand stove at them, Sheng Xuan resented that he raised his sword to block it, and bounced it away with the scabbard.
He scurried quickly, and in a moment he disappeared into the dim ghost lamp.
"Joan? Can you get up? Sheng Xuanyan looked down and asked her, and could feel that she had been trembling.
“…… Yes. ”
Sheng Xuanyan heard her answer in a low voice, and then helped her to her feet. Qiong Yi's face kept resting on his chest, his eyes were closed, and he didn't seem to dare to raise his head.
"What's wrong?" He asked, not knowing what to do, hanging his hands.
"I... I was so scared and looked up...... It's not you who see it...... Just like before......" she choked up, "I... Don't dare ......"
Fear is like a childhood nightmare, the people around you who want to rely on, the people who want to ask for help, and when you approach, your eyes are full of blood.
Sheng Xuan showed his face, exhaled lightly, and held her shoulder: "No." ”
Qiong Yi had tear stains in the corners of her eyes, her eyes were closed, seeing her like this, he held her hand and put it on his cheek, "Then, if you feel it, you will know that it is me." ”
Her fingertips were a little cold, following the movements of his hand, starting from the forehead and slowly caressing downward, the soft touch was a slightly raised eyebrow arch, and then down, it was the eyes, the eyelashes were like delicate feathers, adding a trace of tremor to her fingertips, sweeping over the bridge of the high nose, and then all the way to the corners of the lips, Qiong Yi's fingertips were the same as the tips of the heart, trembling incessantly, when he touched his lips, the whole hand retracted like an electric shock, curled back into a fist, and at the same time couldn't help but open his eyes, and Sheng Xuan's deep and dark eyes looked at each other.
"Sheng Xuan......" she retracted her hand, her mouth sobbing, and it was him in her eyes.
He responded, "Look, it's me." ”
Joan didn't know if she was frightened by the ghosts, or because of his actions, her cheeks were red, and she couldn't calm down at all: "Yes...... It's you. ”
She lowered her head again: "I'm sorry...... Sheng Jun...... I was lied to and ...... Even you've got into this kind of place. ”
Sheng Xuan shook his head resentfully: "Don't say such things. ”
"I fell to the ghost, but I couldn't even pick up the sword...... "Joan also gritted her teeth and said to herself in her heart: I ...... It's really useless.
"There is no need to blame yourself, for everyone is afraid." His hand was warm around her.
Qiong also lowered his head, put his hand half in front of him, and sniffed: "But as a cultivator, I am afraid of ghosts, and I am scared like this, and I am embarrassed ......."
Sheng Xuanyan exhaled, thought for a long time about how to soothe her fear, and finally raised his brows: "Qiong Yi, I won't tell you, in fact, I was also very afraid of ghosts when I was a child. After he said that, he added, "I'm more afraid than you are now." ”
She was stunned: "Really? ”
"yes, really." He squeezed her hand: "There is almost no one in the world who is not afraid of heaven and earth, and ghosts and evil are ugly, so you don't have to feel ashamed." ”
"That'...... So why are you not afraid now? Her face was still pale with fright, and she asked him in a hoarse voice.
He replied, "I'm getting older, so naturally I'm not afraid." ”
When Sheng Xuan said this, he looked away and did not look at her.
He was scared when he was a child, but the result of his fear was that he was forced to face it, and was locked up in a hundred ghost caves by his mother for several days and nights, and finally crawled out of the ghost cave with a sword full of blood, and also cut off the fear himself.
At that time, he longed for someone to accompany him, to hug him, to say to him, "Don't worry", "I'm here, don't be afraid", but no.
So he gave her these words, the words he had longed for.
"Qiong Yi, don't worry. I'm here, don't be afraid. ”
Qiong Yi squeezed his hand tightly, and nodded with red corners of his eyes: "Uh-huh, uh-huh!" She suppressed her crying and asked in as normal a voice as possible, "Here, how can I get out?" ”
"Hadeshang Street is a one-way road, you can't go back the same way, you can only go forward." Sheng Xuan said in a deep voice: "If we want to go out, we can only go to the end of the underworld street and leave this Yin and Yang intersection realm." ”
Joan also bit her lip and didn't answer, the fear in her heart made her so scared that she just wanted to stay where she was, not daring to take a step forward.
Sheng Xuan lowered his eyes, as if he had thought of something: "Qiong Yi, give me the jade lily of the valley that I gave you." ”
Qiong was also startled, and clenched the lily of the valley that she had been wearing on her waist: "...... What? ”
At this moment, many thoughts flashed through her mind, one second he was still telling her "not afraid", the next second he asked her for something to send back, she even thought that he was going to take back the jade ornament he had sent, and then left far away, leaving her alone in this boundless darkness.
Sheng Xuanyan held her hand that was squeezing Yu Lily Orchid, and when he saw the big tears that suddenly slipped down her eyes, he suddenly became at a loss: "What, what's wrong, don't cry." ”
"You won't ...... Leave me here, right? ”
Fragile and suspicious, restless and sensitive. Sheng Xuanyan saw her like this for the first time, no, not for the first time, when she was in the grove for the first time, she was also like this.
"Joan." He said firmly, wiping away tears for her: "I won't do that kind of thing, I won't leave you, never." ”
She looked at him through her tears, and her expression was trance: "...... Good. ”
Sheng Xuanyan took the jade lily of the valley, put one hand on his eyebrows, and pinched the trick with the other hand, and the lily of the valley gradually suspended in the air, emitting a faint white light. His eyes were closed, his brow tightened as the jade bell became clearer and clearer, as if he was enduring some pain, and after a few breaths, a faint spiritual breath was drawn out of the center of his eyebrows, and was incorporated into the bell body along his fingertips. Sheng Xuanyan slowly opened his eyes, and his expression was a little more tired.
"Alright......" he said, his breath and body a little unstable. After stabilizing his figure, he raised his hand and put the jade lily of the valley back in the palm of Qiong Yi's hand.
Qiong also held the lily of the valley: "This is ......"
"Part of my spirit." Sheng Xuan complained, as if it was something extremely ordinary.
"I'm ...... Born to 'kill'. He paused, paused and said, "You are born with evil things, and wearing this, ordinary ghosts will not dare to come to you." ”
"Spirit?" Joan was also stunned, "You, can you still live well?" This, this...... How can you give it to me? So what do you do......"
He smiled lightly: "It's just a little bit of separation, it doesn't matter." ”
Not allowing her to think about it, Sheng Xuan helped her tie Lily of the Valley back to her waist: "In this way, if you are in danger in the future, I will be able to find you according to the spiritual breath, and I will never let you face such a scene alone again." ”
Joan Yi's eyes were hot, and she hugged him without saying anything, and heard the powerful beating sound in his chest, just like herself.
Sheng Xuan was stunned, followed her hair for a moment, and said comfortingly: "Let's go, let's go out." ”
"Good ......"

Su Ye stood on the side of the road with two paper lanterns, looking at the street where there was no one left, a little distracted. Yan Tingshen took the lantern in his hand, "What are you doing?" ”
"When I saw this person gathered and scattered, I suddenly had a feeling." Su Ye sighed, "But I'm not a talented person, I want to recite a few lines of poetry, but I can't start it after thinking about it for a long time, so I can only give up." He spread his hands, a little helpless.
Yan Ting hooked his lips deeply, "It's good to have a heart, why worry." ”
"Ugh." He said: "Isn't it because of this that I feel like a person who secretly becomes depressed because he can't write poetry?" What I just thought about was that I really had to go back to Jiaxi this time. ”
"When will you be back?"
"Tomorrow."
The lantern in his hand was squeaked by the north wind, the light was dim, Su Ye looked at Yan Tingshen, but saw him slowly glance at his face.
Su Ye pulled him, "What's wrong?" ”
"Hey, big man, is it difficult to be reluctant?" Su Ye smiled, "Didn't you say a long time ago that I would go back to my home after the martial arts competition?" And it's not like we're not going to see each other again. ”
"Sort of, the sentimentality of a friend's parting, right? There are often such passages in poems. Yan Ting smiled deeply: "Do they know?" ”
Su Ye thought about Sheng Xuan's resentment and Qiong Yi, who should go back after guessing the riddle: "Sheng Xuan's resentment of course he knows, I haven't told her Lu Xiyan's girl yet." ”
"Oh."
After being speechless for a moment, Su Ye spoke, "It's almost time, let's go to the Underworld." He picked up the lamp and walked towards the corner where there was an end. Su Ye didn't want to say anything more about parting sighs, although Yan Tingshen was indeed the most like-minded friend he had ever met.
The Yan family seems to be located in the west of Guangyang, in the south of the desert, how far away is it from the beautiful Yichuan? Su Ye hadn't been there, nor had he thought about it, but he felt confident that he would be able to hide from his father again and come to Qingfeng Town to listen to the school.
