() The villagers of Yanxun buried the Damao family at the foot of the mountain outside the village, and made two graves for the three people, one large and one small.

"Da Mao, Xiao Cui, you family of three have a good time over there...... I will avenge the revenge here!" stood in front of the grave and worshiped with tears.

The villagers also came up one by one to salute the incense, everyone's eyes were red, the simple and enthusiastic Da Mao, the gentle and virtuous Xiao Cui, together with the cute doll, was gone.

At the beginning of the night, one person from each group kept vigil, and eleven people patrolled back and forth in the village, alert for anything suspicious. One night, two nights, three nights...... More than a month has passed, and the night in Yanxun Village has been peaceful, so the iron lock pillar redivided the forty-four households into four groups, and eight people patrol and keep vigil every night.

Unexpectedly, on the second night of the regrouping, something happened again.

In the morning, as soon as Tie Suozhu got up and put on his clothes, he heard a miserable cry from Jin Gui's house behind the house. He immediately pushed open the door and rushed out, and when he arrived at Jin Gui's house, he was stunned, and Jin Gui's seven-year-old daughter was lying on the bed with her eyes wide open and looking up to the sky, dead. On her neck, two terrifying blood holes were particularly eye-catching. Iron Lock Pillar clenched his fists in anger and walked out of the door and shouted to the villagers who came one after another: "What kind of vigil was last night!"

Li Lianshan was so surprised that he stammered a little: "Lao, Lao Tie, yes, I took a few of them on patrol, but, but we really didn't find anything unusual, and we definitely didn't ...... lazy."

Several other people behind Li Lianshan also said, "Brother Tie, we really didn't see anything!"

Tie Suozhu thought about it calmly, Li Lianshan and those patrolling people are honest and diligent characters, it is impossible to be lazy and nap, but what is it that can unknowingly avoid the night patrol people, and then sneak into Jin Gui's house to kill people?

"I—I said it was a ghost, but you don't believe it!" Haijing's voice trembled in fright.

Iron Lockpillar sighed: "Regardless of whether the murderer is a human or a beast, the two times he killed were children. In this way, we will settle the people under the age of sixteen in the village, or send eight people to watch the night, and each group will set aside two people to guard the children, so that the four groups will be a total of eight people, and I will not believe that the murderer will not be caught!"

The children of the village are all gathered in the house of the iron locker, eat and live together, and are supervised by eight adults every night, which seems to be very peaceful.

Another month passed, and nothing happened, but the villagers did not dare to take it lightly.

It backfired, and one night, something happened again. At dawn, the children and the eight adults who lived together were dumbfounded, and a nine-year-old boy was drained of blood and died in bed, while the two children next to him did not notice anything unusual.

The iron lock pillar is really confusing now, is it just like the sea view said, the village is haunted? The people of Yanxun Village are panicked, and many people are already ready to leave. Iron Lock Pillar had no choice but to decide to send the children in the village to another village. Shenlan Village, which is the closest to Yanxun Village, is also dozens of miles away, and it is estimated that it will take a whole day, so in the early morning, everyone is ready to stop, several flatbed trucks are full of children, followed by women and old people carrying burdens, and the people of Yanxun Village are going to seven or eight this time. The feeling of being uprooted from home was not pleasant, and many people lamented when they looked back at the familiar village.

Who knew that not long after the convoy left, he saw a large group of people coming from a distance, and when he got closer, the iron lock pillar sank in his heart, and it was the people from Shenlan Village who came. Hu Haiwan, the head of Shenlan Village, was also taken aback when he saw the iron lock pillar, and hurriedly greeted him and asked, "Brother Tie, where are you going?"

Tie Suozhu replied: "There are murderous stars in the village, and they only suck the blood of children, and I just want to send them all to Brother Hu." ”

Hu Haiwan slapped his thigh: "Alas! It's the same with us there, several of them have died! I really have no choice, so I want to go to you with the people in the village!" After speaking, he sat on the ground depressed, took out his cigarette stick, and snorted.

The iron lock pillar sighed, and when he saw Hu Haiwan, he secretly said that it was not good, and things were exactly the same as he guessed.

"Brother Tie, what can we do now?" Hu Haiwan exhaled a puff of cigarette, raised his head and asked, "We came here overnight, and it is inconvenient to go back, why don't we simply merge the two villages together?" ”

Hu Haiwan's words reminded the Iron Lock Pillar, and the figure of the mysterious immortal cultivator immediately appeared in his mind. "Why don't I ask her for help......" he made up his mind. "Brother Hu, you first take the people from the two villages back to Yanxun Village to live, and I will invite the masters. Without further ado, I need to leave immediately. Then, he instructed Li Lianshan a few more words, and went to the northern foot of Feitan Mountain alone.

This time, the iron lock pillar could be said to be anxious, he was afraid that the woman had already left the flying beach. So he took three steps and made two steps, and hurried day and night to the mountain stream where the hut was located. The original twenty-day journey, he only took half a month to arrive.

From afar, I saw that the door of the hut was open, and the iron lock pillar was much more determined. He straightened his clothes and walked to the hut. But there seemed to be no one in the hut.

"Did you really leave?" Just as the iron lock pillar was in great frustration, he suddenly heard a shout from behind him and asked, "Who are you?"

The Iron Lock Pillar turned around happily, it turned out to be the girl who gave the pill during the plague. "Girl, I'm the iron lock pillar of Yanxun Village Chief. ”

The girl smiled: "Oh, it turned out to be you." Didn't Master warn you not to come back last time?

The iron lock pillar bowed and said, "Girl, if it weren't for the urgency of 100,000, I would definitely not come to disturb me." Now that human life is at stake, I must meet your master. ”

The girl shook her head and said, "Master is about to break through now, and he must have no time to distract from other things, so you should die of this heart." You should go back quickly, lest Master come back and get angry with me. ”

"Girl, the stakes are very high, and I will forgive you for your fate. Rest assured, girl, when the commander returns, I will take it all in. The Iron Lock Pillar said firmly.

"How can you bear it?" suddenly resounded in the air

Sound.

The iron lock pillar looked up and saw that the immortal cultivator woman was slowly descending from the sky, holding a baby in her arms.

"Master. The girl bowed her head respectfully.

The iron lock pillar hurriedly bowed: "Girl, I am the iron lock pillar of Yanxun Village Chief, and this time I came to ......"

The woman interrupted coldly: "Needless to say, I have been kind enough to save your villagers twice, and I will not help you again this time." Xinru, come in with me. After speaking, the immortal cultivator and the girl both walked into the hut and closed the door.

The Iron Lock Pillar did not give up, and knelt down in the open space in front of the hut. Thinking about the future safety of the village child, how could he give up lightly? A day passed, the door of the thatched hut was never opened, and the iron lock post climbed a tree and slept all night, and the next morning, he came to the door of the thatched hut and knelt down. Day 3, Day 4...... Until half a month has passed, the immortal cultivator has never come out.

Iron Lock's heart became more and more anxious day by day, the interval between the deaths of the three children was about more than a month, and it had taken half a month for him to travel from Yanxun Village to here, and he had been waiting here for half a month, and if he didn't go back, I was afraid that another child would have an accident. But even if he went back, what could he do? Thinking of his three sons at home, Iron Lockpost felt a pang of worry.

Suddenly, he remembered the baby in the arms of the immortal cultivator. The first time he came here, as soon as the immortal cultivator heard the cry of a baby coming from the hut, she immediately walked in, and it seemed that she should be the mother of the baby. Thinking of this, the Iron Lock Pillar came up with an idea.

"Girl, fellow parents, forgive me for saving my son, and I hope you will take pity on the children of Yanxun Village!" shouted Iron Lockpost. After three times in a row, the door of the thatched hut finally opened, and the immortal cultivator woman came out with her hands in her hands, and said lightly: "Say, what is the matter?"

The iron lock pillar is overjoyed, this trick of "deep parent-child affection" is really effective. So he started from the beginning, and recounted the tragic events that had happened in the past few months.

The immortal cultivator frowned when she heard this, looking at the expectant gaze of the iron lock pillar, she finally agreed: "In this case, without further ado, move quickly!"

Iron Lock Pillar hurriedly got up, and because he had been kneeling for too long, he almost fell down again as soon as he stood up. The immortal cultivator took out the fairy sword: "You are walking too slowly, I will take you to fly." "This is the second time that Iron Lock Pillar has seen her fairy sword, the pale yellow light, very beautiful.

On the way back to Yanxun Village, the Iron Lock Pillar looked in amazement at the mountains and forests below and swept by, and at this speed, it would not take a few hours to arrive. Out of politeness, the iron lock pillar respectfully asked, "I don't know the girl's name?"

"My surname is Huangfu, and my single name is a 'jade'. ”

"It turned out to be the Huangfu girl. Ironlock nodded, remembering the name firmly.

When he arrived at Yanxun Village, Tie Suozhu jumped off the flying sword, and the first thing he did was to find Li Lianshan, who was most worried that another child would be killed in these days when he was away.

Fortunately, Li Lianshan reported to him that he was safe, and a total of dozens of children in Yanxun Village and Shenlan Village were safe and sound. Seeing the Huangfu Jade behind the Iron Lock Pillar, Li Lianshan's eyes lit up, the immortal cultivator who can easily kill the demon beast must not be afraid of any powerful ghosts, the Iron Lock Pillar has disappeared for so long, it turns out that he went to invite this master.

"It doesn't matter if it's a human, an animal or a ghost, it's okay with me, I'm afraid it won't come. Prepare a room for me, and don't disturb me normally. Huangfu Yu said.

"Yes, according to the orders of the Emperor Fu Girl. "Iron Lock Pillar Road.

Not far from the children's house, the Iron Lock Pillar had carved out a room for Huangfu Yu's retreat. Although Huangfuyu never leaves the house, her existence has made everyone's hearts settle down a lot.

One night, two nights, everything was calm.

On the third night, Huangfu Yu sat cross-legged on the bed and closed his eyes to meditate, thinking secretly in his heart: "In such a remote village, such a tragic thing could happen. There doesn't seem to be a living by sucking blood among the demon beasts, and it seems that the best of ten are done by immortal cultivators. Such a mad man deserves to be punished. Suddenly, she remembered the strange plague more than half a year ago, and the small village was repeatedly plagued, could it be that there was a connection between the two things?

At the time of the third watch, everything was silent, and the moon was covered by dark clouds, looming. There were fifteen adults guarding the children, and a few candles were lit in the four corners of the room, and the dim candlelight illuminated the sleeping faces.

A young man who was keeping vigil yawned and whispered to a middle-aged man next to him, "Brother Liu, how can something happen to so many people watching?" ”

The middle-aged man sighed: "I was one of the people who had an accident last time to keep vigil...... I can't believe that there is a baby dead in front of everyone's eyes with eight people and sixteen eyes......"

"You just watched it all night, didn't you feel anything was wrong?" asked the young man.

The middle-aged man thought for a while: "It's true that I've been watching." If you want to say what's wrong...... One thing, that night, there was a moment, suddenly a little wind blew, blowing the candles flickering, I felt very sleepy for a while, and my upper and lower eyelids kept fighting, and I couldn't open them even if I tried hard...... Later, I suddenly fell asleep again, and when my spirit recovered, I continued to look at the babies. When it was dawn, I found that one of the babies had been drained of blood......"

The middle-aged man said so mysteriously that the young man shuddered when he heard it: "Brother Liu, then you said that when the wind blew, was it a ghost?

The middle-aged man patted the young man on the back: "Don't scare yourself! I didn't fall asleep at that time, I was just a little confused, and I only had a little bit of work, and besides, there were seven other people with their eyes open......

As he was talking, suddenly the window was blown open by the wind, and the cool wind blew into the room, and the flame of the candle "crackled" and jumped. The middle-aged man hurriedly got up and protected the fire with his hands. The young man yawned again: "Brother Liu, how can I ...... Why are you so sleepy......" Before he could finish speaking, he leaned back in his chair and fell asleep. Not only the young man, but also the rest of the room fell asleep, and even the middle-aged man who got up to protect the candle flame fell on the table.

Huangfu Yu, who was in the room not far away, suddenly opened his eyes and said in his heart: "It's here!"

She immediately rushed out of the room, and saw a gloomy white figure standing on the roof of the room in the dark night!

Her long black hair covered her pale face, and her white clothes fluttered slightly in the night breeze, and it was obvious that it was a woman.

Huangfu Yu sneered: "What a female ghost, she has finally appeared, when you meet me, you are exhausted, take your life!" She jumped onto the roof, pulled out the fairy sword Xiaoguang, and there was a glimmer of light in the dark night.

The "female ghost in white" slowly turned to the side and said faintly, "Oh? You, can you kill me?"

"Can't I kill you?" Huang Fuyu learned her tone and stabbed her throat with his sword.

The "female ghost in white" does not dodge, does not move.

"You really think you're a ghost...... Huang Fuyu said secretly in his heart, his wrist moved slightly, and the blade of the sword shook into a yellow light.

At the moment when the sword light was about to touch the throat of the "female ghost", she suddenly raised her left hand to block it in front of her throat, and her fingers connected with the yellow sword light, and there was a crisp "jingle" sound, and she actually used her fingers to easily defuse the attack of the fairy sword!

Huangfu Yu could also see it clearly in the night, the nail of the left hand of the "female ghost" was actually more than three inches long, and she used that terrifying nail to block the blade of the fairy sword just now.

"You're worth drawing my sword. The tone of the "female ghost" was still faint, and she pulled out a fairy sword from behind her back.

The female ghost's long hair was draped around her waist, covering the sword completely, so Huang Fuyu didn't notice that she was carrying a fairy sword at first. This fairy sword is very unique, the sword body is curved and snake-shaped, giving people a sense of coldness. The bleak white light is quite a match for the "female ghost".

Looking at the white-clothed female ghost holding the fairy sword, Huang Fuyu suddenly remembered a name in his mind. "White Spirit Sword!Are you the 'Bone Spirit White Demon' Song Xinrong?" she asked in surprise.

The "female ghost" lifted the long hair covering her face, revealing a pale and gloomy face, and smiled sadly: "That's right, I am Song Xinrong." ”

"You, aren't you already dead?" Huangfu Yu once heard that the "Blood Spirit Black Demon" and the "Bone Spirit White Demon" had been hunted down and killed by the seven major sects, and for some reason they appeared here strangely.

"Hmph, if it weren't for the Seven Great Sects bullying more and less, how could my husband and I have failed miserably...... At that time, we faked our death, but we deceived everyone present, hehehe, it has been many years, our injuries and strength have long recovered, since God has given my husband and wife a chance to come back to life for revenge, sooner or later we will have to recover this debt from the seven major sects......" Song Xinrong said sharply with a ruthless face.

Huang Fuyu smiled, shook his head and said, "It's up to you, let's pass my level first!"

She was about to attack, but she interrupted, "Wait! I, the Bone Spirit White Demon, never fight with a nameless person." Seeing that your cultivation is not weak, what is your surname, and what sect is it?"

"Well, let you die. My surname is Huangfu, a single name jade, no sect and no faction!" Huangfu Yu used the move of "Source Shadow Sword Book" and attacked Song Xinrong. Huangfu Yu is very confident, Song Xinrong was only in the late stage when she was hunted down, at that time she had already reached the Mahayana realm, left the Taiqing Sect and went out to travel, and now she is cultivating to the early stage of the tribulation, it is easy to kill Song Xinrong.

Song Xinrong is also full of confidence, first, she has never heard of the name of Huangfuyu; second, looking at Huangfuyu's first move, her skill is also in the Mahayana realm, Song Xinrong's evil skills have been practiced to the realm of tribulation, in her opinion, Huangfuyu is not an opponent at all.

Both of them thought that the other was far inferior to themselves, and it was not until they actually exchanged hands that they realized that the other party was not a fuel-efficient lamp. The two of you go back and forth, chess opponents, and after hundreds of moves, there is still no winner or loser. Huangfu Yu was dressed in apricot yellow clothes, and Song Xinrong was dressed in white, and it happened that the light of the fairy swords of the two was also the same color as the clothes. In the vast night, I saw only two clusters of light, one yellow and one white, constantly flickering on the roof.

Such a big movement didn't wake anyone up.

"Song Xinrong, I really underestimated you, you can make everyone in a trance and can't wake up. No wonder you can kill people without knowing it. Huangfu Yu said as she played, she guessed that Song Xinrong must have used some special means.

"I'm underestimating you, too...... It's actually the realm of tribulation...... The person who detoxified the villagers last time was you, right?" Song Xinrong's breath was slightly chaotic, and Huang Fuyu's cultivation realm greatly exceeded her expectations, and was even slightly higher than herself. What's more, Huangfu Yu is using the Taiqing Sect's supreme "Source Shadow Sword Book", and its power is enough to be proud of the world. After a thousand moves, Song Xinrong became more and more powerless, gradually falling into a disadvantage, struggling to parry, and having no time to attack, if she continued like this, she would definitely lose.

The so-called "plague" last time, Huang Fuyu knew at a glance that someone had poisoned it. If it was really a plague, her elixirs would not cure the disease. "Sure enough, you were the one who made the poison last time!" Huang Fuyu shouted.

Song Xinrong thought to herself: "Since the poison released last time was dissolved, I guessed that there should be a cultivator with advanced cultivation nearby. The reason why I come here once a month and kill a child each time is to lure immortal cultivators out, but I don't want to be a master of the Tribulation Period. Today, the 'black demon' is not here, and it is useless to fight, so I have to find a way to escape......"

Song Xinrong suddenly shook a sword at Huangfu Yu's face, and when Huang Fuyu retreated and dodged, Song Xinrong kicked her feet and flew away in the opposite direction, and at the same time threw the white spirit sword towards Huang Fuyu. The strange thing is that the Bai Ling Sword did not fall, but floated in the air and continued to fight with Huangfu Yu.

In fact, Song Xinrong has five filaments wrapped around the five fingers of her right hand, and it is through these filaments that she controls the Bai Ling Sword to entangle with Huangfu Yu, buying time for herself to escape, and when she finally clenches her fist, the Bai Ling Sword will immediately return to her hands.

"Still want to escape?" Huangfu Yu snorted coldly, turned sideways and fought with the Bai Ling Sword while quickly chasing after Song Xinrong, and the speed at which she walked sideways was actually no slower than Song Xinrong.

Song Xinrong saw that the situation was not good, and immediately withdrew the white spirit sword, and quickly flew the sword to the north.
