18 Incoming
After Xie Wanyou settled the matter of the Xie family that day, he took Xiaobai and Luo Ruxi to leave Lintian City and got on the flying magic weapon that went to the cultivation realm.
Luo Ruxi's flying magic weapon was a small flying boat, similar in appearance to that kind of exquisite painting boat, and when Luo Ruxi took it out of the Qiankun bag, it was only the size of a palm.
Xie Xiaobai squatted on Xie Wanyou's shoulder, looking at the mini boat in his aunt's hand, his big gray-blue eyes could not hide his curiosity.
Luo Ruxi felt that Xiaobai's appearance of having never seen the world was strange and cute, and couldn't help but want to tease it, and deliberately said mysteriously: "Xiaobai, look at it!" β
As she spoke, she urged her spiritual power, and then threw the flying boat in her hand into the distance, and the palm-sized mini flying boat immediately began to grow larger.
Xie Xiaobai was so shocked by Luo Ruxi's operation that he opened his mouth, and looked at the suddenly bigger boat with wide eyes, and forgot to shake his tail.
Luo Ruxi didn't understand the child's young age, so she couldn't do it: "How about it, isn't it amazing that my aunt can make things bigger?" β
Xie Xiaobai nodded vigorously, his eyes full of admiration: "Auntie is super powerful!" β
A small skill of manipulating magic weapons, easily gaining the reverence from Xiaobai, Luo Ruxi was secretly refreshed in her heart, and said modestly: "It's just a very simple spell, but that's it." β
Xie Xiaobai looked at Luo Ruxi expectantly: "Can that aunt make Xiaobai bigger?" In this way, Xiaobai can protect his mother! β
βοΌβ Luo Ruxi was caught off guard and overturned, her eyes flashing: "This...... Belch...... It doesn't seem to work, because of my aunt's spell, I can only make the boat bigger, not the white. β
Knowing that it couldn't grow up right away, Xie Xiaobai couldn't help but be a little disappointed, Xie Wanyou touched its little head, curled the corners of his lips and smiled: "If everyone could swish to get bigger, there would be no child like Xiaobai in the world for a long time, right?" β
Xie Xiaobai thought about it, felt that what his mother said made sense, and nodded.
Xie Wanyou said unhurriedly: "There is no shortcut to growth, if you want to grow up quickly, there is only one way to eat well." β
Luo Ruxi hurriedly nodded in response: "Aunt testify, what your mother said is true!" β
Xie Xiaobai listened as if he didn't understand, and only remembered that he had to eat more to grow up faster.
It secretly clenched its claws and decided to listen to its mother and aunt and grow up by eating!
After the flying boat completely became bigger, Luo Ruxi took Xie Wanyou on the flying boat with great interest, bent down and entered the cabin.
This flying boat looks small from the outside, but after entering, Xie Bangyou found that there was something else in the flying boat, and there was a very spacious space.
Luo Ruxi warmly beckoned Xie Wanyou to sit down on the upholstered chair, and then took out all kinds of snacks from the dark compartment, and put them all on the table in front of Xie Bangyou: "Next, we will fly for three or four days in a row, it's boring, let's eat something to cushion our stomachs first, and when it comes to the evening, we will go down to find an inn to live in." β
Luo Ruxi said, she also nested into the chair next to her, and pinched her hands: "Okay, let's go!" β
Xie Bangyou soon felt a slight sense of weightlessness, and the scenery outside the window gradually became empty.
The flying boat has already taken off.
Xie Bangyou is also the first time to experience the "plane" of the Xiuzhen realm, it is impossible to say that it is not novel, fortunately, the flying boat flies very steadily, and will not encounter turbulence from time to time like an airplane, and there is no noise, which is very friendly to Xie Bangyou, a seasick person.
- but it doesn't seem very friendly to cubs who are experiencing high-altitude flying for the first time.
Xie Xiaobai was curious to lie on the window and look down at first, until he found that the ground was getting farther and farther away from him, and the height of the flying boat was getting higher and higher, he couldn't help but be a little scared, twisted his little buttocks and shrank into Xie Wangyou's arms, and his ears were turned into airplane ears, buried his face in Xie Wangyou's arms, and said in a trembling voice: "Mother...... Good, so high......"
Xiaobai in his arms was trembling, he was really scared.
Xie Wanyou was loving and funny, and gently stroked Xiaobai's back to smooth it: "Xiaobai is not afraid, we won't fall." β
Luo Ruxi didn't expect Xiaobai to be afraid of heights, so she hurriedly comforted: "Auntie's flying boat is very safe, if Xiaobai is afraid, just imagine this place as Bihetang!" Imagine we're not flying! β
Xie Xiaobai tried hard to imagine for a while, and finally there was a cry in his immature voice: "I'm sorry aunt, Xiaobai can't do it...... woo woo"
Obviously a very poor cub, Luo Ruxi was inexplicably poked into laughter, and finally held back her laughter: "It's okay, let's think of another way!" β
Xiaobai let out a pitiful whine from his throat, curled his tail, and almost shrunk himself into a small ball of fluff, and the hair all over his body exploded, and the whole ball immediately fluffed up a big circle.
At this time, Luo Ruxi stopped laughing, came over worriedly, and coaxed distressedly: "Xiaobai is not afraid, do you want to eat sugar candy?" Auntie has a lot of sugar here, and it's all very delicious! β
Xie Xiaobai shook his head wobly, unable to speak, and trembling slightly.
Xie Bangyou felt that this would not work, since Xiaobai was afraid of heights, he had to find a way to divert his attention, and he couldn't let him think about whether he would fall all the time.
She glanced out the window and suddenly said, "Xiaobai, we have now flown to the white clouds, haven't you always been curious about whether there are any immortals on the white clouds?" β
As soon as Xie Xiaobai heard the word "immortal", the ears of the plane that were left behind "swished" and stood up.
Xie Wanyou couldn't help laughing.
The little white fool has always felt that the immortals live on the white clouds, and now that he is really on the white clouds, how could this little thing let go of the opportunity to find the immortals?
Sure enough, the tips of Xiaobai's ears trembled, and after hesitating for a moment, he carefully raised his little head and glanced out of the window with the corner of his eye.
The flying boat passed smoothly in the curling clouds and mist, and in Xiaobai's sight, there was only a magnificent and majestic sea of clouds, and the ground was no longer visible at all.
If you can't see the ground, you can't judge the height, so Xie Xiaobai's fear has decreased a little, and the exploded fur gradually returned to normal.
Xie Wanyou pretended to look around a few times, and then said very distressedly: "My mother didn't find the fairy, do you want to find it with my mother?" β
When Xie Xiaobai heard this, he immediately didn't care about anything else, and nodded like garlic: "Yes!" Xiaobai wants to find a fairy! β
Xie Wanyou deliberately asked, "Isn't Xiaobai scared now?" β
"Afraid, afraid." Xie Xiaobai shrank his paws, and said with some shame: "However, immortals should like brave children, and if you are not brave, Xiaobai will not be able to find immortals......"
Xie Wanyou smiled dumbly.
Xiaobai: What a layer of filter did he add to the immortals in his heart.
Immortals only like well-behaved children, immortals don't like bad children, immortals will only fulfill the wishes of good children, and immortals will punish disobedient bad children.
In essence, it is just a kind of rhetoric used by adults to control children's obedience.
When she was a child in the orphanage, Xie Wanyou often heard this kind of admonition, and she also listened to it for a while, trying to become a good child according to the way the gods liked, but in that orphanage, kindness means being bullied, so she suffered a lot.
But those "immortals" who asked her to be kind did not come to save her.
Later, she figured it out, even if there are really immortals, are all those immortals perfect? If they are not perfect themselves, why should they expect perfection from others?
Xie Wanyou didn't plan to let Xiaobai follow her old path, and told Xiaobai seriously: "It doesn't matter if Xiaobai is not brave, no one is perfect, if the fairy didn't come to see Xiaobai, it must be the fairy's problem, he had something to do temporarily, or overslept and got lost on the road, so he was delayed." β
Xie Xiaobai was in Xie Wanyou's arms, blinking ignorantly: "But...... Do immortals also oversleep and get lost? β
Xie Bangyou said: "Yes, otherwise we make a wish to the gods, why can't the gods hear it?" Either the fairy ears are back, or you just oversleep. β
Xie Xiaobai thought for a while, nodded his little head, and agreed: "Mother is right, the gods in the sky also have shortcomings. β
Luo Ruxi was amazed beside her, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It would be nice if my mother said these things to me when I was young, she used to like to scare me and say something similar to 'unbelawed children will be captured by ghosts at night', and now, I don't dare to expose my feet to the quilt when I sleep at night, and I have not been very bold." β
Xie Wanyou pondered: "It seems that the elders love to say this kind of thing, and their children are exposed to it, so they have become the elders of the next generation who love to say this kind of thing." β
Luo Ruxi nodded vigorously: "If you want to break this cycle, start with our generation!" β
The flying boat flew over the clouds, occasionally passing through clouds of snow-white clouds.
The clouds floating outside the window attracted Xie Xiaobai's attention, the child was forgetful, Xiaobai couldn't remember how high he was standing now, and now his eyes were full of white clouds floating outside the flying boat: "Mother, is this the cloud in the sky?" Xiaobai is so close to the clouds! β
Luo Ruxi immediately said, "Does Xiaobai want to touch it?" We can stand on the bow of the boat and touch it~"
Xie Xiaobai's eyes immediately began to shine, and he turned his head to look at Xie Wanyou.
Xie Wanyou rubbed his little head and got up with it: "Let's go and have a look." β
Leaving the cabin, a chill rushed to his face.
The fur on Xie Xiaobai's body was messed up by the wind, and he couldn't help but shrink into Xie Wanyou's arms, only stretched out his claws, and carefully fished out a white cloud that floated by.
It turned out to be empty.
βοΌβ Xie Xiaobai tilted his head in confusion, stretched out his little tongue and licked his paws, but he didn't taste the taste of white clouds.
In the past, when he was locked up in a small courtyard, one of the things Xie Xiaobai used to do was squatting at the door to observe the ever-changing white clouds, guessing what they would taste like - this was one of the few pleasures it had in that gray life.
In Xiaobai's imagination, the clouds floating in the sky must be soft to the touch, and they should taste sweet.
But in fact, the clouds have no taste, and Xiaobai can't touch it.
Xie Xiaobai had a feeling of being deceived by Bai Yun.
It nested in Xie Wanyou's arms, opened its mouth at the drifting white clouds as if it didn't believe evil, turned its head and bit it several times.
Of course, it couldn't bite anything, and the misty clouds passed through its body, leaving only a faint cold vapor.
Xie Xiaobai buried himself in Xie Wanyou's arms and didn't move, and let out a frustrated "coo" from his throat, which was both like a complaint and some kind of unconscious coquettishness.
Xie Bangyou poked its tail: "My mother can't touch the clouds, no one can touch the clouds, it's actually the water we drink, and when the water runs into the sky, it will become these white clouds." β
Hearing that the clouds were watery, Xie Xiaobai shook the tips of his ears slightly, and suddenly felt that the clouds floating in the sky had lost their former mystery.
No wonder clouds have no taste, and water has no taste.
Xie Xiaobai then unilaterally reconciled with the clouds, poked his head out of Xie Wanyou's arms again, opened his eyes wide to observe the majestic sea of clouds outside the flying boat, and occasionally opened his mouth and bit the oncoming clouds stupidly.
What a silly cub.
Luo Ruxi and Xie Wanyou looked at each other and smiled.
The two stood side by side at the bow of the boat, Luo Ruxi pointed to a certain point in front of him, and said: "That side is Dengxian Peak, after Dengxian Peak, we will really enter the cultivation realm, but by then, the sky should be almost dark." β
Xie Wanyou followed Luo Ruxi's fingers and found a mountain peak looming in the undulating sea of clouds.
That's Dengxian Peak.
Dengxian Peak is located at the junction of the cultivation realm and the human realm, which is equivalent to a natural boundary monument, which not only isolates the aura, causing an imbalance in the aura of the two realms, but also isolates the monks and mortals.
If a mortal wants to enter the cultivation realm, in addition to being brought in by a monk, he can only climb the path of ascending the Immortal Peak with his bare hands.
And if a monk wants to go to the human world, he only needs to be like Luo Ruxi, and use a flying magic weapon to cross the Ascending Immortal Peak, and a monk with advanced cultivation can't even use a flying magic weapon, he can fly directly against the wind and travel thousands of miles a day.
As for why the monk didn't rely on his cultivation to do something to mortals, it was because he was bound by the laws of the Heavenly Dao, and once the monk did it to mortals, his karma would increase, and he would suffer a stronger thunderstorm during the tribulation.
Because of this layer of cause and effect, the human world and the cultivation world have maintained peace and quiet for a long time.
Xie Bangyou recalled the background of Dengxian Peak, and unconsciously, the looming mountain peak was close in front of him.
Luo Ruxi smiled: "It's about to pass through the boundary wall, are you ready!" β
Xie Wanyou looked at the translucent barrier that was getting closer and closer in front of him, and there was a rare trace of nervousness in his heart.
After all, she is a soul of another world, and this realm wall looks so magical, I don't know if I will find her abnormality after a while, and directly exclude her.
Xie Wanyou was not at ease, and specifically asked the system in his mind.
The system gave a negative answer: [Yes, no]
β¦β¦ It means that if there is no system, she will really be isolated from the boundary wall?
Xie Wan secretly pinched a handful of sweat.
But after thinking about it carefully, the words of the system actually revealed a lot of news, Xie Bangyou speculated that this boundary wall probably has the function of identifying whether the soul is original, etc., so as to prevent the demon from seizing and entering the cultivation realm through the method of smuggling into the skin.
When Xie Wanyou pondered, the bow of the ship had already touched the boundary wall, and the translucent barrier was like the surface of the water, and then it opened up a circle of light golden ripples.
The bow of the ship sank smoothly into the boundary wall without the slightest pause.
When the boundary wall arrived in front of him, Xie Wanyou subconsciously hugged Xiaobai tightly and closed his eyes.
She didn't run into any obstacles, as if she was passing through a layer of air.
In the next second, Xie Wanyou was surrounded by the rich aura that rushed towards him.
The aura in the world is thin, and there is very little aura that can be absorbed, and now she suddenly arrived in the cultivation realm where the aura is abundant, and this body seems to be in a long drought and rain, and begins to frantically absorb the aura around her.
Xie Wan faintly felt that if she continued to absorb this momentum, her already fragile meridians would burst out, so she forcibly interrupted the inhalation of the aura.
But it was still a little late, Xie Wanyou soon felt a feeling of dizziness coming up, not very uncomfortable, but feeling that he had become light, as if he couldn't step on the ground.
Luo Ruxi seemed to have anticipated her situation, calmly helped Xie Wanyou into the cabin and sat down, and handed her a cup of flower tea.
Xie Bangyou leaned back in his chair and took a sip of flower tea: "I...... What's going on? β
Luo Ruxi explained: "You haven't returned to the cultivation realm for many years, and the spiritual vein has been in a semi-dry state where you can't absorb the aura. β
Xie Wangyou stretched out his hand and pressed his head, closed his eyes and nodded listlessly.
After Luo Ruxi finished watching Xie Bangyou, she found that Xiaobai, who was nested in Xie Bangyou's arms, was also turning her belly, looking dizzy and confused.
Luo Ruxi was full of question marks: "Xiaobai, how can you-"
Halfway through speaking, Luo Ruxi suddenly remembered that Xiaobai's cub was a magical existence that could directly eat spirit stones.
It can't be because he just inhaled the air with aura, so Xiaobai has also made up for it, right??
Xie Xiaobai finally opened his eyes and smiled in a daze: "Auntie, Xiaobai...... Xiaobai saw a lot of stars......"
Xie Wanyou also smiled: "I also saw ......"
Luo Ruxi: "......"
The little junior sister and Xiaobai were both dazed, Luo Ruxi saw that it was getting late, so she simply manipulated the flying boat to descend, wanting to find an inn to rest for a night and set off tomorrow.
It's a pity that her luck is not very good, the place where she landed is a wilderness, as a person who has been afraid of ghosts since childhood, how could Luo Ruxi choose to find an inn to spend the night in this kind of place, and quickly manipulated the flying boat to sweep here.
After looking for a long time, Luo Ruxi found a brightly lit inn when it was dark.
This inn is in a small town, although it is not big, but there are people around, and Luo Ruxi observed that there are indeed people entering and leaving this inn.
These people walking around are all shadows, not ghosts, safe!
Luo Ruxi took the flying boat and took the drunken little sister and Xiaobai into this inn, and only booked a room.
Joke, this kind of place, how could the coward Luo Ruxi let any of them be left alone?
The proprietress standing behind the counter is a charming woman, with fine lines at the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, and she always bows her head slightly when she looks at people, only letting her eyes look up, and her lips are as red as if she has drunk blood, and there is an inexplicable sense of bewitchment.
The proprietress swept Luo Ruxi and Xie Wanyou, who were half-wrapped in her arms, with a smiling gaze, and curled her bright red lips: "This sister is drunk?" Need hangover soup? β
Luo Ruxi swallowed her saliva and categorically refused: "No need, thank you." β
The proprietress didn't react to the rejection, but handed out a copper key with her fingers dyed with bright red Kodan, and smiled in the flickering candle flame: "Go upstairs and turn right, the second room...... Oh, and by the way, if you hear anything at night, don't open the door. β
It's so weird! It's so weird!!
Boss, are you okay with normal! I'm really going to be scared!
Luo Ruxi resisted the urge to pull the little junior sister to turn around and run away on the spot, roared madly in her heart, and took the key with a slight trembling hand.
As long as there is any other choice, Luo Ruxi will definitely not stay in this inn.
But it was already dark outside, and if you drove the flying boat in the dark, it was difficult to guarantee that you would not run into any obstacles, which was very unsafe, and all kinds of evil things would appear at night, and the danger outside was no less than living in this shop.
Fortunately, Luo Ruxi is quite experienced in this situation, as soon as she entered the room, she checked every corner, then closed the doors and windows, and took out all kinds of ghost exorcisms, five thunder charms, and ghost exorcism charms from the Qiankun bag...... I don't want to put all the money on the doors and windows.
Hmph, even if there are really ghosts now, if they can come in, she Luo Ruxi's three words will be written upside down!
Xie Wanyou opened his eyes and saw the room full of yellow talismans, and he was so frightened that he instantly sobered up a lot, and sat up in shock in his dying illness: "Senior sister, you are-"
Luo Ruxi kindly pressed her back to lie down: "This is a life-saving operation in the walking cultivation realm, I hope you will never understand this sentence." β
Xie Bangyou: "......"
Xie Wanyou had a clear understanding of Luo Ruxi's timidity, she silently looked at the yellow charms in the room, and it was difficult not to show envious eyes from the poor ghost: "This has a lot of money, right?" β
Luo Ruxi waved his hand: "Small money, you can earn it by refining a few furnaces of three-grade Jin Yuan Dan, which is equivalent to not having money." β
In response to this sentence, Xie Wanyou had already imagined the picture of her waving her hand in the future, allowing Xiaobai to open her belly and gnaw on the spirit stone.
Before the yearning in her eyes could dissipate, Luo Ruxi broke her illusion with a word: "Speaking of which, little junior sister, you have to hurry up and find a strange fire, and you must find it before the trial." β
Xie Wanyou's eyes lost their light in an instant.
Where would she go to find a strange fire that wouldn't be frozen out by her ice aura?
Luo Ruxi lay down beside Xie Wanyou and leaned over to comfort her: "But don't worry, there are a lot of different fires in our Bixiao Dan Sect, and there must be a different fire that is suitable for you." β
The trial is imminent, and Xie Bangyou can only hope that the strange fire in the Bixiao Dan Sect can solve her urgent need.
Xie Wanyu thought about it, touched Xie Xiaobai, who was sleeping on his back next to him, it purred in its throat, and its paws pressed Xie Wanyou's arm in a daze, and began to step on the milk one by one.
Luo Ruxi lowered her voice: "It's so cute, I want to try it too~"
Xie Wanyou moved his arm and motioned for Luo Ruxi to step up.
Xie Xiaobai didn't notice anything, and continued to step on the milk with a snort.
The two took turns to experience the massage of the little white technician, and after talking for a while, they fell asleep satisfied.
Before going to bed, Luo Ruxi left a dim lamp to prevent the room from being completely plunged into darkness, at this time, in the dead of night, the room was shrouded in a hazy dim candlelight, and the black shadows cast on the wall by furniture and utensils were originally stationary, until a wind from nowhere blew the candles, and those shadows also swayed, climbing and spreading on the wall.
Luo Ruxi shuddered, and then turned over.
In a daze, she felt something fluffy tickling the soles of her feet, Luo Ruxi felt a little itchy, and in a trance thought that Xiaobai was scratching the soles of her feet with her tail, and subconsciously muttered: "Xiaobai, don't make trouble with Auntie......"
But the fluffy thing didn't stop moving, but intensified.
At the same time, there was a man muttering to himself, his voice ethereal, intermittent, as if coming from far away.
"Miei, where's my body...... Have you seen my body...... Where did you hide it......"
"Woo woo woo...... I'll never see her again...... I died a miserable death......"
"Body...... Give me your body...... It's my ......."
Luo Ruxi suddenly woke up from her dream and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Xiaobai, who was sleeping peacefully between her and Xie Wanyou.
It turned out that Xiaobai was scratching the soles of her feet with her tail, so let's just say, Xiaobai is not the kind of naughty cub.
But- why does the soles of her feet still feel tickled!!
Luo Ruxi turned her head inch by inch, and directly met the gaze of a hideously twisted human head at the end of the bed.
And then she was desperate to find that it was not the fluffy tail that scratched the soles of her feet, but the long black hair on the man's head.
People are so frightened that they can't shout, Luo Ruxi held back her tears and pushed Xie Wanyou beside her.
Xie Wanyou woke up suddenly, and when he opened his eyes, he also saw the terrifying head at the end of the bed: "......"
Luo Ruxi's voice trembled: "Little, little junior sister, what should I do?" β
Xie Wanyou was still quite calm, and quickly made a judgment: "You give Xiaobai a soundproof barrier, and then give me the sword, and I will take the sword and string it." β
Luo Ruxi's mind was blank, and she could only mechanically act according to Xie Wanyou's request.
At the moment when Luo Ruxi handed the sword to Xie Wanyou, the human head screamed, opened its mouth full of sharp teeth, and flew straight towards Luo Ruxi's door.
The impact of that scene was too strong, Luo Ruxi screamed briefly, and her hands and feet stiffened for a while.
Seeing that the human head was approaching in front of her, a sword light flashed in front of Luo Ruxi's eyes, knocking away the human head that rushed towards her.
The head slammed into the floor with a heavy "pop" sound, and it slammed into the wall all the way to a stop.
Xie Wanyou and Luo Ruxi all got out of bed, staring at the human head tightly, Luo Ruxi was about to cry: "It's a flying ghost, obviously I have a spell all over the room, how did it get in......"
Xie Wanyou took her behind him: "Don't panic, it's not of a high level, I can handle it." β
Luo Ruxi had tears in her eyes, she announced that at this moment, the little junior sister was her god!
Xie Wanyou's estimate is right, the flying head ghost with a low level has no other special skills except for flying fast, so it is relatively not very difficult to deal with.
Xie Bangyou swung out a sword, and the head ghost fled in a hurry, and half of his hair was cut off by the sword qi.
Its pale lips squirmed, repeating the words, "Body...... Give me your body...... It's my ......."
"Miei, where's my body...... Have you seen my body...... Where did you hide it......"
"Woo woo woo...... I'll never see her again...... I died a miserable death......"
It rampaged through the ceiling like a headless fly, and when Xie Wanyou's sword chased after it, he realized how important actual combat was.
The daily routine of sword practice is not enough to practice the accuracy of slashing ghosts.
The vertical and horizontal sword qi slashed the entire room to pieces, and Xie Wanyou silently said sorry to the proprietress in his heart - although it seems that the proprietress may not be a good thing at the moment.
After chasing the flying head ghost for a few minutes, Xie Wanyou successfully knocked it to the ground, and then pierced it with a sword.
The flying head ghost let out a miserable scream, and Luo Ruxi hurriedly slapped a fire talisman on it, burning the ghost thing that almost scared her to death.
"Phewβit's finally settled." Luo Ruxi sat on the bed with her buttocks, wiped a cold sweat, and was puzzled: "But where did it come from?" β
Xie Wanyou's gaze swept across the room and landed on the only hidden place - under the bed.
Luo Ruxi followed her gaze, and instantly bounced up like she had been burned to her ass, and her little face turned pale: "No, no, no......"
Xie Bangyou blew on a fire and threw it under the bed, a flash of fire illuminating the wooden planks and a dark hole under the bed.
Apparently, the flying ghost came up from this hole.
Luo Ruxi beat her chest and regretted it: "I was careless!" Next time I'll have to put a spell on the ground too! β
Xie Wanyou coughed lightly: "It's okay, it's too late to post it now." β
Xie Wanyou closed the wooden board again, and then pasted more than a dozen charms sponsored by Luo Ruxi.
After this incident, both of them lost their sleepiness.
Only Xiaobai was covered by the soundproof barrier, and slept soundly unconsciously.
Luo Ruxi took a sip of water to suppress the shock, and her brain was finally able to function normally: "I have long thought that the boss lady is not a good person, the flying head ghost will not push the floor away, it must have been the boss lady who did it, she used the flying head ghost to kill us, what do you want to do?" Do you sell human meat buns? β
Xie Bangyou stared at the shadow that fell at the door, and re-grasped the hilt of the sword: "I don't know, but the flying head ghost is dead, and the proprietress may have to do it herselfβdoes she only have the flying head ghost?" I have to say, it's a bit shabby. β
"Little junior sister, is it time to complain about this?" Luo Ruxi looked at the shadowy black silhouette at the door, and closed her eyes painfully: "Can this cultivation realm still be good, the world is really beautiful, I want to go back to the world." β
Xie Wanyou was amused by Luo Ruxi at an inopportune time, and was about to say something, but saw the charm attached to the door burn, and then a woman's scream came from outside the door.
It's not in vain that Luo Ruxi posted so many spells, it really has an effect!
The black silhouette twisted for a moment, and finally reluctantly retreated, disappearing out the door.
Luo Ruxi thought that this was the end, and just relaxed a little, when she suddenly heard a thumping sound from under the bed.
The thing couldn't break through the doorway, so it chose to climb up through the hole under the bed.
It's a pity that more than a dozen spells were also pasted on the wooden board of the gambling hole by Luo Ruxi, and the sound of the impact under the bed lasted for a few seconds, and finally fell completely silent.
Luo Ruxi's tense nerves slowly relaxed, and she said weakly: "I'll just say, under normal circumstances, my life-saving operation won't go wrong, today's flying ghost is just an accident." β
Xie Bangyou looked at the room surrounded by charms and agreed.
is this kind of money-free local tyrant sticking method, there is really no ghost who can break through Luo Ruxi's defense.
Seeing that it was almost dawn, Xie Wanyou and Luo Ruxi leaned on the head of the bed and squinted for a while, planning to wait for the sky to be completely bright before leaving.
However, the plan couldn't catch up with the changes, and when the sky was just dawning, Xie Wanyou smelled a burning smell.
She quickly opened her eyes and saw black smoke spilling in from outside the door.
It's on fire!
Luo Ruxi also woke up, and when she saw this situation, she couldn't help but scold: "What's the situation with this broken shop, the ghost can't kill us, so he wants to burn us to death, injure the enemy by one thousand and lose eight hundred?" β
Xie Wanyou had already picked up Xie Xiaobai on the bed, and when she saw Luo Ruxi hurriedly opening the window, she hurriedly stopped: "Senior sister, you can help me hold Xiaobai, I'm afraid that the proprietress will give us an open window to kill, it's better to prepare early." β
Luo Ruxi suddenly realized, and hurriedly took over Xiaobai, and by the way, he stuffed Xie Wanyou with a bunch of charms for emergency.
She nervously watched Xie Bangyou walk towards the window with her sword, and with her other hand, she slammed the window, and a blue-faced and fanged grimace screamed and rushed towards Xie Wangyou's face door in the next second.
Fortunately, Xie Bangyou was prepared, and with a swing of his sword, he knocked the ghostly proprietress away.
Xie Bangyou was about to jump down the window, eager to try: "Senior sister, the level of the proprietress is not very high, you wait for me for a while, I will practice with her." β
With that, her figure also disappeared into the window.
Luo Ruxi hurriedly rushed to the window with Xiaobai in her arms and looked down, the proprietress who was beaten out was like a gecko at this time, crawling on the trunk of a locust tree outside the window, and Xie Bangyou flew out, and five snow-white sword qi flew in the direction of the proprietress at this time.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the proprietress hurriedly climbed up, but it dodged most of the sword qi, and still couldn't dodge the last one, and was knocked to the ground with a scream.
Xie Wanyou tiptoed a tree trunk, and reflexively chased in the direction where the proprietress fell.
Luo Ruxi watched her little junior sister chasing and killing the female ghost, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
She stayed in the Bixiao Dan Sect for a long time, protected by the master and elders, and she never encountered much danger, and her thoughts were relatively simple, there was a fire in the ghost shop, she just wanted to escape from the room quickly, but she didn't expect that the ghosts had already guessed their actions and would squat them outside the window.
In the past, Luo Ruxi always felt that there was no problem in staying in her comfort zone, but after coming out for a walk, Luo Ruxi realized that walking outside was far from being so simple.
Murder and danger are hidden under the unpredictable hearts of people, but she cannot discern them well and is not capable of protecting herself.
And she can't hide under the protection of Bixiao Danzong all her life, except for herself, no one seems to be able to protect her all the time.
At this moment, Luo Ruxi secretly decided that she must cultivate hard in the future and grow her eyes more!
Over there, Xie Bangyou had already controlled the female ghost, and seeing that the fire had spread into the room, Luo Ruxi jumped out of the window with Xiaobai in her arms, and stood in the distance waiting for Xie Wanyou to end the battle.
During this period, Xie Xiaobai woke up in a daze.
It stretched its body and stretched its back, then rubbed its eyes with its paws, only to realize that it was not in bed, but in its aunt's arms.
βοΌοΌβ Xiaobai's head was full of small question marks, and he didn't figure out what was going on: "Auntie, where is my mother?" β
Luo Ruxi turned Xiao Bai's little head back manually: "Your mother is fighting with a female ghost, so she is about to win." β
Hearing that there was a female ghost, Xiao Bai's gray-blue eyes immediately widened, and he subconsciously wanted to turn his head to look, but was stopped by Luo Ruxi: "The female ghost looks a little ugly, and my aunt is afraid that Xiao Bai will be scared when she sees it." β
Xie Xiaobai was a little scared and a little curious: "Auntie, just give Xiaobai a look, okay?" β
Luo Ruxi blocked Xie Xiaobai's eyes: "You can only take a look." β
Xie Xiaobai squinted out from Luo Ruxi's fingers, and saw his mother's one-handed pinching of the trick, and the sword in his hand floated and turned into countless white phantoms.
Under these shadows, the female ghosts on the ground looked weak, helpless and pitiful.
Xie Xiaobai secretly glanced at the female ghost, I don't know if my mother is too powerful, Xie Xiaobai feels that the female ghost does not look as terrifying as it imagined.
It's all two eyes, a mouth, and a nose......
The phantoms of the swords fell.
And so the battle ended.
Xie Bangyou watched the female ghost gradually turn into ashes, and put the sword back into its sheath.
Only then did Luo Ruxi step forward, and a thousand words turned into two words: "Awesome!" β
Xie Xiaobai also wagged his tail happily: "My mother defeated the female ghost, my mother is so powerful!" β
Xie Wanyou smiled and hugged it: "Did Xiaobai see the female ghost?" Are you afraid? β
Xie Xiaobai's eyes were shining: "Don't be afraid!" Xiaobai will also learn swords in the future and become as powerful as his mother! β
Xie Bangyou nodded his little nose and denied: "Xiaobai will definitely be more powerful than his mother in the future." β
The inn was engulfed in flames, and the smoke attracted the townspeople.
The residents looked at the firelight and couldn't hide their fear.
Xie Wanyou and Luo Ruxi glanced at each other and went over to ask about this inn.
The resident who was questioned sighed: "Mrs. Ma is also a hard-working person, she originally opened an inn with her husband, and lived a prosperous life, but she didn't expect that one day, her husband's head was cut off, but his body didn't know where it was hidden, and Mrs. Ma hanged herself...... Later, the inn became haunted, and no one went there for years......"
Luo Ruxi's face turned pale: "Wait uncle, you mean, no one has been there for many years?" β
So what did she see last night?
It was because she saw that there were living people coming in and out of this inn that she went in.
Uncle nodded affirmatively: "This place has long been deserted, everyone has heard the rumors here, how can it be possible to go in and live again?" β
Luo Ruxi: "......"
Xie Wanyou asked, "What is Mrs. Ma's full name, do you know it, uncle?" β
Uncle frowned and thought for a while before lowering his voice and saying, "It seems to be called Mei...... What is the beauty? β
Xie Wanyou: "Meiying? β
"Yes, that's the name......" The uncle looked around jealously, as if he was afraid that the name would attract something, and left in a hurry.
Xie Wanyou was thoughtful.
The flying ghost should be the head of Ma Meiying's husband, but the flying ghost said that Meiying hid its body.
This illustrates...... The husband's head back then was actually cut off by Mrs. Ma.
Luo Ruxi also figured out something: "I remember that the flying ghost said, 'I won't look for her again', so it was her husband who raised the outer room, and Mrs. Ma couldn't bear it anymore, so she killed him?" And then hanged himself too? β
Xie Bangyou nodded and analyzed: "If you extrapolate it this way, after Mrs. Ma became a ghost, she probably needed to rely on cannibalism to enhance her strength, so she used her husband's head to kill people with her head, and the reason why those 'people' you see still have shadows may be because they are not ghosts, but ...... Corpse pieces, specifically used to catch new prey. β
Luo Ruxi: "...... Stop talking, I'm going to run out of breakfast. β
No matter how much speculation there is, it is actually meaningless, the female ghost is gone, the flying ghost is also burned clean, and all the past is buried in this fire.
Early that morning, they left the town and got back on the boat.
Luo Ruxi swore to the sky: "Last night's inn was an accident, tonight senior sister will definitely take your little sister to stay in the luxury inn, so that you can sleep peacefully!" β
Xie Wanyou looked at her with a smile on his chin, and asked curiously: "Senior sister, you came to pick me up alone in the human world before, and you would put spells all over the room at night?" β
Luo Ruxi nodded, a little embarrassed and said: "Yes, the master said before that the world outside is very sinister, let me practice diligently, I still don't believe it, but on the first night, there was a ghost knocking on my door, I was so scared that I couldn't do it, I covered the whole room with charms, and I didn't sleep all night...... In the future, I should practice hard, otherwise even the flying head ghost will be able to bite off my head. β
Xie Wanyou thought to herself, from this point of view, her senior sister's master is indeed something.
Knowing that Luo Ruxi rarely goes out and has little experience in going out, but he assigned Luo Ruxi the task of taking her back, Xie Wanyou guessed that Luo Ruxi's master should also intend to let Luo Ruxi take this opportunity to experience and understand life.
Luo Ruxi was beaten by reality outside, and she really realized life, and she was like an arrow for a while, and her flight speed was much faster.
At this rate, they would be able to arrive at the Bixiao Dan Sect the morning after tomorrow.
That night, Luo Ruxi did as she said, and took Xie Bangyou and Xiaobai to stay in a luxury inn.
Xiaobai jumped on the bed and curiously shared its discovery with Xie Wanyou: "Mother, it's so soft!" β
"That's nature." Luo Ruxi also sat on the bed and flicked: "If you have money, you can do anything." β
She slapped it on the bed, and Xiaobai was directly bounced off by the rebounding bed.
It exclaimed, thinking it was funny, and hit Luo Ruxi's hand with its head, hinting that it wanted to do it again.
Luo Ruxi fulfilled its wish and played with it.
Xiaobai, who flew up again and again, did not forget to invite his mother to play the take-off game.
Xie Bangyou: "......" mother can't fly, stupid cub!
Luo Ruxi was playing with Xiaobai, while Xie Wanyou sat aside and took out the pendant that she snatched back from Xie Yanyu.
Xie Wanyou didn't feel anything special from this pendant, if he had to say it, that is, wearing this pendant, the speed of absorbing aura would be faster.
But the system says that it is good for cub cultivation, is there any hidden function that it has not turned on?
Xie Bangyou looked at the pendant over and over again, but he didn't see anything famous, after all, the pendant is the thing of the Demon Venerable, and the cultivation realm is mixed, Xie Wanyou is afraid that someone with a heart will find something and cause unnecessary trouble, so he didn't put it on Xiaobai for the time being, and planned to study this pendant after returning to Bixiao Danzong to settle down.
At this time, Luo Ruxi received a communication from the sect and temporarily interrupted the take-off game: "Master, we are all fine, yesterday we met two ghosts in the guest house, and they were all solved by the little junior sister." β
"Where's it? Let me see...... My little sister and I are almost at Tianji Mountain. β
"Little junior sister? She's right next to me. β
Xie Wanyou was suddenly cued, and his whole body suddenly became numb.
In the next second, Luo Ruxi turned her head and whispered to Xie Wanyou: "Little junior sister, the master wants to talk to you, is it okay?" β
It's going to be worshiped in the Danzong of the people, and it's really a bit rude not to say hello, Xie Wanyou was a little overwhelmed...... Then what do I call you Master? β
Luo Ruxi smiled at her narrowly: "My master is the sect master of the Bixiao Dan Sect, you just call him the sect master." β
Xie Bangyou: "!! β
This is something that Xie Wanyou didn't expect at all.
The sect master of the Bixiao Dan Sect, Xie Wanyou mentioned it when she heard the shopkeeper Lin sell the Bixiao Dan Sect to her in various ways, and he was one of the three heaven-level alchemists.
One of the top alchemy bosses in the cultivation realm actually applied to talk to her, and Xie Wanyou had an extremely unreal trance.
Xie Wanyou didn't know when he received the communication charm, and after doing a lot of ideological construction, he said a little restrainedly: "I'm Xie Wanyou...... Good evening, Sect Master. β
The sect master's vigorous laughter came over, and he was very easy-going: "You are just a couple, I finally heard your voice, I have heard Lin Liuyuan mention you many times, you are a very good junior." β
was praised by the top boss, Xie Bangyou was quite embarrassed: "The sect master praised it falsely." β
The sect master laughed: "Everyone in the world says that I am extremely talented, but even I can't refine the pill the first time like you. Don't be presumptuous, you will go further than me. β
Xie Bangyou: "......" Is the sect master so straightforward? If she continues to boast like this, it will be difficult for her not to swell.
The sect master changed his words and said gently: "Okay, soon we will be able to meet in the Bixiao Dan Sect, and I will talk to you in detail when the time comes, we have to hurry tomorrow, and you and Ruxi will rest early." β
β¦β¦
After the sect master's side cut off the communication, Xie Wanyou and Luo Ruxi looked at each other.
Luo Ruxi finally couldn't hold it back, and fell on the bed with a smile: "Little junior sister, you don't know that when you just talked to Shizun, your expression was stiff, hahahaha, how nervous you are!" β
Xie Bangyou tried to save his respect: "I don't want toβbut he's a Heaven-level alchemist!" I'm a little restrained in front of the alchemy boss, it's normal. β
Luo Ruxi still trembled with laughter: "Maybe I've been under the door of Shizun for a long time, Shizun has no big boss in my eyes." β
Xie Wan said humbly: "Don't laugh, you laugh again...... I was annoyed. β
"Then you annoy me to show me?" Luo Ruxi touched her face with a smile: "I'll tell the top alchemy boss when I go back, and the little junior sister will murder me." β
Xie Bangyou: "......" After a communication, she was pinched by her senior sister.
Xie Wanyou lay down peacefully, unable to face the meeting with the top alchemy boss a day later.
Xie Xiaobai squatted on Xie Wanyou's chest, tilted his head and asked, "Mother, are you sleepy?" β
Xie Wanyou closed his eyes and grabbed the cat's head and kissed it: "I'm sleepy, my mother is going to dream." β
Xie Xiaobai lay down on her chest and shook her tail: "That mother wants to dream of Xiaobai, so that in this way, in the dream, the mother can also kiss Xiaobai~"
Xie Wanyou curled the corners of his lips and opened his eyes to look at it: "Mother's will." β
The next day, they continued on their way, and crossed the Celestial Scar Mountain at noon that day.
As soon as she passed the Tianji Mountain, Xie Wanyou felt that the aura in the air had become significantly thicker, and she looked down from the sky, and fields of various colors came into her eyes.
Seeing that she was curious, Luo Ruxi explained: "This area is above the spiritual vein, so the soil is very fertile, and the spiritual energy contained in it is also abundant, which is especially suitable for planting spiritual grass, so the major Dan sects are basically located in this area. β
Luo Ruxi pointed in a direction: "Bixiao Danzong is in the easternmost and occupies the best position. β
Xie Bangyou: "...... Senior sister, that's the direction of the west. β
"......" Luo Ruxi pretended that nothing had happened and pointed to the east again.
In order to hide her embarrassment, she bluntly changed the topic: "The dishes in Fufeng Pavilion are super delicious, let's go there to eat at noon, right?" β
Xie Wanyou nodded in agreement.
However, just as Luo Ruxi was maneuvering the flying boat to land at the bow of the ship, Xie Wanyou suddenly received a communication from Mo Zimao.
When leaving Lintian City, Mo Zimao gave Xie Wanyou a communication charm, and Xie Bangyou didn't expect this communication charm to come in handy so soon.
She accepted the communication, and heard Mo Zimao over there hurriedly say: "Miss Xie, something happened to the Xie family!" β
Xie Bangyou: "??? β
Xie Wanyou hesitated: "Didn't the Xie family have an accident two days ago, I smashed the building with my own hands......
Mo Zimao's tone was strange: "It's not this, it's this morning, it is said that this morning a white-clothed man with a sword on his back went to the Xie family to look for you, after entering the Xie family, the Xie family didn't know what to say, he directly smashed the Xie family again." β
Mo Zimao hesitated: "Is that son from your former Sword Sect, it's been more than four years, why did they come to you?" If he finds me and asks me about your whereabouts, shall I tell him? β
Xie Wanyou was silent.
She was also curious about why so much time had passed, but someone from the Sword Sect suddenly came to the door.
She frowned slightly, for some reason, she always felt that this had some kind of inexplicable connection with her crossing.
In addition to this reason, it seems that there is no explanation why the Sword Sect suddenly came to the Xie family to look for her after ignoring her for so long.
Mo Zimao's tone changed suddenly, and he lowered his voice and said nervously: "The little guy just reported that the boy asked to see him at the door, my mother, he must have come to ask you for news, what should I say?" β
