Chapter 607: Choice
After this funny monster left, Huo Xuan turned over and sat up, with a funny expression on his face.
It can be seen that these two monsters are not vicious and easy to kill, especially the demon fox, which is contaminated with Buddha nature and has great compassion, which is really rare among monsters.
At this moment, Huo Xuan pondered, and couldn't make up his mind in his heart, how to deal with these two monsters?
The close relationship between the Zhang family and the peony, the demon fox with Buddha nature, and the bloodline it gave birth to with the heir of the Zhang family all made Huo Xuan have to think carefully, if it is not handled properly, he will feel even more guilty about the Zhang family.
After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't come up with a feasible solution. Huo Xuan sighed lightly, stood up, and stepped forward, and his figure immediately disappeared into the room as if he had escaped into the void, without a trace.
The night is dark. The bustling city of the Lijiang River, brightly lit, does not look deserted because of the night, but is more lively than daytime.
There is only one street, located in the center of the city, which is dark and lonely. There are only a few sparse households on this street, the lights are turned off in the morning, the door is closed, and not far away, there is a dilapidated mansion, from the golden plaque hanging crookedly on the beam in front of the main entrance, it can be seen that this family was once prosperous.
"Brother Shan, it's dark here, where can I find an inn?"
"Don't be in a hurry, it'll be here soon. ”
In the darkness, footsteps gradually came, and two figures walked out. They were a man and a woman, they didn't look very old, only in their twenties, the man was tall and burly with a full beard, and the woman was pretty, petite and lovely. They are all dressed in black and carry longbows, and they are extraordinary.
"It's here. ”
In front of the dilapidated mansion, the bearded young man paused, and his companion looked around, with a look of surprise, pointed to the mansion next to him, and said, "Brother Shan, will you let me rest in this ghost place?" ”
"During the day, I heard from the people in the city that this mansion was often haunted. The neighbors are not allowed to live in peace. Since we are here, we have solved these filthy ghosts with our hands, which is also a merit. The young man said this, and strode towards the mansion.
"Brother Shan. Are you mistaken. We're demon hunters. He is not a miscellaneous Daoist of the Heavenly Master Dao, so why bother with these idle things!"
The girl in black shouted at her companion, seeing that the other party had made up her mind. Stamped his foot and followed.
The heavy door was slowly pushed open, making a 'click' sound, and the accumulated dust poured down, and the surface of the two people emitted spiritual light at the same time, blocking the falling dust.
"It's dirty!"
The girl in black frowned, followed the bearded young man with an unhappy face, and strode in.
Inside the mansion, it is pitch black and windy, giving people an inexplicable sense of fear. Both of them were cultivators with supernatural powers, and they were not afraid, and walked along the path overgrown with weeds.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew in front of you, accompanied by whispers. If you were an ordinary person, in this dark and terrifying environment, you would have already turned around and left. The two of them glanced at each other, and at the same time exuded their thoughts and looked around.
"Over there. ”
The bearded young man seemed to have cultivated more profoundly, and immediately noticed the abnormality, and with a finger of his hand, the two of them rushed towards a pavilion in front of him. When they arrived, they found that the yin aura was heavier, but there was still no trace of the ghosts that were haunting.
After a few breaths, the black-clothed girl beside her seemed to have noticed, smashed her companion with her arm, and said in a low voice: "Brother Shan, look." ”
The bearded young man then turned around and looked in the direction of the girl's finger, and outside a wing room not far away, the scene changed abruptly, and the darkness of the night suddenly turned into day, and a young woman and a half-grown boy appeared, they looked very similar, if nothing else, it should be a mother and son. At this moment, he stood outside the door and whispered, sometimes laughing, sometimes with sadness on his face.
"It's rare that these two ghost creatures can transform a scene!" said the bearded young man, slowly removing the longbow from his back, and a gleam flashed in his eyes.
"Brother Shan, looking at their appearance, it seems that they are mother and son...... This should be their home, people are dead, their souls are nostalgic, and they refuse to be reincarnated. A look of unbearability flashed on the face of the girl in black. She knew that if her companion's arrow was shot, the mother and son would be completely gone.
After hearing this, the bearded young man paused, hesitated for a while, put away the longbow, took out a jade bottle again, and said: "They are also poor people, just take them in, I still take them in, and find a chance to surpass them in the future!"
"Hmm. ”
The girl in black nodded in agreement.
Immediately, I saw the bearded young man throw out the jade bottle in his hand, and with a pinch of the magic trick, the mouth of the bottle immediately emitted a trace of spiritual light and sprinkled it in the air, and suddenly, the scene in front of him was shattered like a mirror, and the day turned into night, and the wind was blowing, and the two black gases were shrouded in spiritual light, rushing left and right, but they could not get out, and there was a terrible scream.
"Close!"
A soft snort. I saw that the two black gases were pulled by the slightest spiritual light, and they were thrown towards the jade bottle in mid-air.
At this moment, the figure flickered, and a middle-aged man suddenly appeared, with a wave of one hand, the jade bottle hanging in mid-air immediately burst, the aura dissipated, and the two black gases came out, but strangely did not escape, but turned into a faint figure, came to the person's side, and wept in a low voice.
"Sister-in-law, Chenghua, I hurt you......"
The person who came was Huo Xuan. With his cultivation, he can see at a glance that these two ghosts are his sister-in-law and nephew Pang Chenghua.
When the magic weapon was destroyed, the bearded young man frowned, and shouted, "Who is Daoyou, why do you want to destroy my magic weapon?"
The companion beside him, the girl in black, was already holding a longbow and was ready to strike, and if anyone made the slightest move, she would launch a thunderous blow.
"Two fellow Daoists, please give me a little thin noodles in the next place, so that I can overtake their deaths. ”
Huo Xuan arched his hand at the two of them, his tone was very gentle, but a touch of sadness flashed between his eyebrows.
The bearded young man's eyes were sharp, and he immediately caught the strange look on Huo Xuan's face, thinking in his heart that the person who came should have a close relationship with the family in the mansion. Otherwise, you won't stop yourself.
"Lianbi. ”
He stopped his companion's actions, nodded at Huo Xuan, and said, "Fellow Daoist, please do it." ”
The damaged jade bottle is just a low-level magic weapon, it's nothing, the qi hidden from the person who came is very powerful, if it is estimated that it is good, it should be a concentrating mystic master. The bearded young man acted cautiously and had a mild attitude, so he did not want to be an enemy.
Huo Xuan listened. Cast a grateful gaze. Immediately, he sat down on the spot, his expression solemn, his lips lightly opened. Start reciting the Heart Sutra.
The low voice of Buddhist mantras. Melodious out. The two figures who had been crying in front of Huo Xuan seemed to be infected by the sound of scriptures and stopped crying. They walked around Huo Xuan three times. After that, he fell to the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, as if saying goodbye.
"Go, no need to be obsessed, we will be a family ...... fate"
Huo Xuan's eyes showed an indescribable back, and he waved his sleeves slightly, and suddenly, the two figures turned into wisps of green smoke, drifted into the air, and disappeared.
The two Jade Family Demon Hunters not far away were surprised when they saw this scene. From Huo Xuan's words, they heard that the other party had a close relationship with these two ghosts, and what was even more surprising was that the other party was also proficient in Buddhist mantras and transcended the ghosts.
"In Xia Yushan, this is my sister Yu Lianbi, who dares to ask the name of Dao Youzun!"
The bearded young man stepped forward, bowed his hand, and reported himself to his home, and had the heart to make friends.
"Nobody, not enough to worry about, two Taoist friends, goodbye ......"
But seeing that Huo Xuan's figure flickered, he had disappeared in place strangely, without a trace, only his words were still circulating in the mansion, and they lasted for a long time.
"This person is so rude!"
The girl in black named Yu Lianbi was very unhappy with Huo Xuan's sudden departure.
"Forget it, people don't have malicious intentions, they just don't want to make friends, we can't be angry. ”
When Yushan said this, he beckoned her to leave.
"Where?"
The girl in black asked in a strange voice.
Yushan, a young man with a beard, touched her little head with a smile and said, "Lian Bi, do you really want to stay here for the night...... Silly girl, the ghosts don't exist anymore, let's find an inn to rest, recuperate our spirits, and find the whereabouts of those two monsters tomorrow!"
"Brother Shan, do you have any news about those two monsters?"
"Back then, I hit a golden light arrow in that demon fox, after many years, the spiritual power of the arrow has not been exhausted, even if they hide to the ends of the earth, they can't escape from the palm of my hand!"
As soon as the two left, not long after, the figure flickered, and Huo Xuan reappeared. He didn't go far at all just now, and the conversation between the two Jade Family Demon Hunters was not lost word in his ears.
Listening to what they said, it seems that they came to the Li River for the sake of the two monsters in Zhangfu. Huo Xuan stood beside Tingxuan in a daze, with a thoughtful expression on his face, half a sound, he put the matter aside, looked around, the familiar scenes in front of him were presented one by one, and tears appeared in his eyes unconsciously......
Three days later.
Zhang Fu was overjoyed. The guests were like a cloud, and almost all the people with heads and faces in Lijiang City came to congratulate Zhang Heng on the joy of his daughter.
Huo Xuan is also on the invitation list. It's just that he lives in Zhang's mansion, and the congratulatory gifts have already been offered, and when the auspicious time comes, he can participate in the feast. Ever since he met the two Jade Family Demon Hunters in his mansion that night, he has been paying attention to the whereabouts of these two.
Sure enough, the purpose of their coming to the Li River was to hide the two monsters in Zhangfu. The demon fox is gone, and the raccoon demon has black eyes, all of them are proficient in the method of concealing the aura, and it is difficult for ordinary cultivators to detect their identities even if they are face to face.
However, the two Yushan, I don't know what means they used, in just two or three days, they locked the location of the two demons. The two demon hunters did not act rashly, but waited patiently, and it was not until today that Zhang Xian'er, the little daughter of the Zhang family, was full of joy, and the two demon hunters took action.
This qiē can't be hidden from Huo Xuan, and their every move is under Huo Xuan's surveillance.
"Congratulations!"
"Old man Zhang, your granddaughter is so cute, blessed!"
In the hall, the little fairy was surrounded by guests around to watch. Standing beside her were the father and son of the Zhang family, and the black eyes were guarding behind. Today is a day of great joy, although I decided to leave the Zhang family immediately, but when I saw my father-in-law's family beaming, I also cheered up, squeezed out a little smile, and greeted the guests warmly.
This qiē, Huo Xuan saw it in his eyes, and sighed in his heart, the two demon hunters were outside the mansion. Now that they have strode in, not to mention their intentions, I am afraid that when I see these two people, I can't laugh if I want to!
Also, Huo Xuan had some expectations in his heart, how would the Jade Family Demon Hunter react after seeing the half-human, half-demon little fairy?
The sound of footsteps came, and although it was in a noisy environment, Huo Xuan immediately recognized the identity of the person. He sat down in the VIP seat and swept his gaze. Sure enough, Yushan and Yu Lianbi walked into the hall together. The latter was still holding a brocade box in his hand, looking like they were coming to congratulate, but in fact they were here to stir up the situation.
The two had just walked into the hall when they were abruptly surprised. Away from the dead and the black eyes are aware of it. Two sharp eyes stared straight away. Immediately, Liyan's face changed, and the black eyes behind him revealed a cold murderous intent in his eyes. One step came to the front of the funeral, and waved his hand to push away the crowd of onlookers.
"Ouch!"
He had great strength, and several people were directly pushed backwards and almost fell to the ground.
"Leave the dead, quickly enter the back hall!"
The black eyes didn't even look at these guests, and even the surprised eyes of the Zhang family father and son were unaware, and they whispered to the funeral.
"We're leaving, they can't stay if they want to, wait a minute, see what they want?"
Liyan's lips moved, and Chuanyin said this, and then gave the baby girl in his hand to Zhang Heng beside him, "Xianggong, you come and hug Xian'er." ”
Zhang Heng hurriedly took over his daughter. His gaze looked at the dark eyes, showing displeasure, and it was obvious that he was very dissatisfied with his brother-in-law's rude behavior earlier.
At this moment, the two Yushan had already strided. In the distance, I saw Yushan arching his hand at Zhang Zhixin, and laughed: "Old man Zhang is very happy, the juniors are uninvited, I hope you will forgive me!"
"Everyone who comes is a guest! Welcome, welcome!"
Zhang Zhixin returned the gift very politely. In the fall of the Qin clan and the troubled times, the ranger warriors were attracted by all forces, and their status was invisibly improved a lot, although the Zhang family was a family of businessmen, it was not exempt from vulgarity, so they did not dare to slack off on the people who came.
Yushan and the others came to a stop three feet away from the black eye. The eyes of the two sides collided in mid-air, and invisible sparks erupted, both of which were murderous, but they did not turn their faces on the spot.
"A small congratulatory gift, a little heart, not a respect!"
Yushan looked at the black eyes and said this, Yu Lianbi immediately stepped forward and handed it over with a brocade box.
"Thank you!"
The black eye said this coldly, took the jade box, but his footsteps did not move for half a minute, blocking the two from approaching.
In the eyes of others, it seems a little weird, Zhang Zhixin and his son also noticed that something was wrong, could it be that these two people are here to make trouble?
"Two distinguished guests, please take a seat!"
Zhang Zhiyuan, who is old and sophisticated, came over at this moment and invited Yushan and the two to sit down to resolve the embarrassing situation in front of him.
"The two of us came from afar to congratulate, and according to the rules, the host's family should also hold out the little birthday star, so that we can have some joy!"
Yushan seemed to have a smile on his face, and said to Zhang Zhiyuan.
"Yes, yes. ”
This request is not too much, Zhang Zhiyuan patted his head, pretended to be stunned, smiled apologetically at Yushan, and immediately turned his head and instructed his nephew Zhang Heng: "Heng'er, don't come over quickly." ”
Zhang Heng responded, hugged his daughter and wanted to walk over, but unexpectedly, he was stopped by a jade hand.
"Xian'er is tired, Xianggong, let the slave family take her back to rest!"
couldn't help but say, Liyan took the baby girl back from Zhang Heng's arms. At this moment, Yushan's eyes flashed, and in an instant, their faces changed drastically, with a look of disbelief.
"They found out too!"
Not far away, Huo Xuan, who was sitting in the VIP seat, looked at all of them. Obviously, with the unique vision of the Jade Family's demon hunter, although they were far away, the Yushan and the two still noticed the peculiarity of the baby girl.
When they turned around and left with the baby girl in their arms, Yushan and the others calmed down the horror in their hearts. At this time, I saw Yushan's figure flicker, and he instantly approached Zhang Heng, reached out and grabbed his arm, and laughed: "Young Master Heng, an old friend wants to invite you out to see him, and I hope you don't want to refuse!"
When the words fell, he pulled Zhang Heng and walked out of the hall, strange to say, Zhang Heng didn't have the slightest idea of resisting, the whole person was confused, and he was at his mercy.
"Xianggong!"
The demon fox, who was about to enter the back hall, changed his face at this moment and shouted loudly. Seeing this, the black eyes shook their bodies and wanted to chase after them. But at this moment, I saw Yu Lianbi dodging to block the way of the black eyes, his lips moved slightly, and he said: "Tonight, I will see Xiaotangshan outside the city." If you don't show up, you will bear the consequences!"
"Look for death!"
A roar of rage. The black eye was furious, and he waved his right palm, and a faint black gas came out of his palm, and he struck towards Yu Lianbi.
Yu Lianbi chuckled, her delicate body shook, and she retreated seven or eight feet away and strode away. The black eye wanted to pursue, but was stopped by the demon fox.
"This ...... What's going on?"
The two sides happened in the eyes of outsiders. I just think it's weird. Zhang Zhixin saw his son being pulled away. It doesn't look like he's been kidnapped, standing in place, confused.
"Dad, they're friends with each other...... It's okay. Xianggong will be back soon. ”
Away from the funeral. Her eyes glow with a hint of brilliance. stared at Zhang Zhixin and the others and said this.
Zhang Zhixin, who was originally full of anxiety, and his second brother Zhang Zhiyuan. Under the gaze of the departing gaze, his expression was in a trance, he nodded, and turned to continue to greet the guests.
Huo Xuan saw it in his eyes, knowing that it was the demon fox casting a spell to confuse the Zhang brothers and make them forget what happened just now. This is just an expedient measure, I didn't expect that Yushan and the two would hold Zhang Heng hostage, as long as the demon fox had the slightest affection for Zhang Heng, he had to give in.
Although the strength of the two demon hunters of the Yu family is not bad, their opponents Demon Fox Liyan and Raccoon Demon Black-eyed Dao are not low, and they fight hard, the two monsters may be invincible, but it is not difficult to escape.
Now that Zhang Heng is a hostage, although the means are a little inappropriate, they are very effective.
After observing in the past few days, Huo Xuan found that this demon fox has a deep affection for Zhang Heng, not to mention, the two of them still have blood descendants, the demon fox will definitely not leave him, if he goes to the appointment, his fate can be predicted.
It's time for the show!
Huo Xuan sighed in his heart. At the moment, he is also making a difficult choice.
"Black Eyes, you leave the Li River with Xian'er immediately, leave now!"
Back in the wing, the demon fox changed his usual composure, his expression was confused, he took the black-eyed hand, and pleaded loudly.
Black-eyed vetoed categorically, shook his head, and said, "I'm not leaving, I'm leaving, let's go together!"
With tears in his eyes, he said: "Xianggong is in their hands, if I leave, he will die." ”
"Leave the dead, the demon hunter will not kill innocent humans, as long as we leave, Zhang Heng will lose his use value, those two guys will not be embarrassed for him!"
"Black Eyes, don't forget what happened three years ago, that witch huntress was injured by us, and I was also severely injured by the other party, showing my original form, and almost died...... These two demon hunters have a lot of hatred for us, since they have made a move this time, they will never stop if they don't achieve their goal, if I leave, Xianggong will definitely be implicated, in the eyes of cultivators, a human life is nothing!"
When he said this, tears fell like rain, and he begged bitterly, "Black eyes, we grew up together since childhood, practiced together, and were like brothers and sisters...... You have said that no matter what I want you to do, you will agree, I beg you, take Xian'er, take her......"
She knew better than anyone else that her daughter was an alien, and if she fell into the hands of those two demon hunters, she would have no chance of survival. At this moment, I just want the good partner in front of me, who has grown up together, to take away my daughter and protect her well, so that I can go to the appointment with peace of mind, exchange life for life, and rescue my former benefactor, the current father-in-law.
Looking at her crying with black eyes, she couldn't make a choice in her heart.
"Black eyes, it's still the same sentence, if you don't listen to me today, we will break off our relationship, in this life and this life, old age and death will not get along!" Seeing him, he still hesitated, and shouted loudly, his expression extremely resolute.
"You're going to threaten me with that, okay, I'll go, I'll not be able to go......"
The black eyes were in his ears, and the tears couldn't stop flowing, he gritted his teeth, and strode out with the baby girl in his arms.
At this moment, as if he had lost all his strength, he fell to the ground, tears welling up and his face full of sadness and despair.
It's night.
A red light rose from Zhang's mansion, hovered in mid-air for a moment, and then shot out of the city.
At the same time, Huo Xuan, who was sitting in the wing, flickered, disappeared in an instant, and disappeared without a trace.
"Am I just gone...... What should she do?"
Under the moonlight, hundreds of miles away from the Li River, there is an unnamed mountain. Black eyes were pacing back and forth with the baby girl in their arms, their faces full of worry and anxiety. For him, leaving the dead is the sky, that is, a qiē. When he was young, he was weak, once he went out to forage, met the natural enemy fire vulture, and was almost torn to pieces by the fire vulture claws, it was the death of the death risking his life to save him, the moment of rebirth, he swore to the sky, this life to guard the side of the dead, never give up!
Now, when the catastrophe is coming, he flees alone, entangled in pain in his heart, speechless.
"If you go away alone, you will die...... No, I'm going to help her!"
Finally, Blackeye made a choice. He gritted his teeth, and struck out with a wave of his right hand, and a ray of black light hit the mountain wall not far away, and the roar suddenly started, the mountain rock cracked, and a six-foot cave appeared.
"Xian'er, sleep here, uncle and mother will come to pick you up soon!"
The black eye placed the baby girl in the cave, laid a demon law ban, and immediately turned into a streamer and escaped through the air. (To be continued......)
