Chapter 17: The Qingqi Fairy
When the official asked, Liang Shiming trembled unconsciously, but when he thought of the old man, he was no longer afraid, and raised his head pretending to be calm, who expected that this head would be shocked unconsciously. I saw that the official who walked in front of me was actually the same as the woman who was just carrying the basin, and both eyes were born on the cheekbones on both sides.
"Thank you, thank you, leave him alone. Without waiting for the official to look at Liang Shiming again, the old man ran a few steps to stop him and said, "I have something to ask you for help." ”
"What's the matter?" asked the official again.
The old man immediately said: "No, no, he is not human...... It doesn't matter if he's human or not. The old man said and took off a small cloth bag with a drum behind him, but the sound of the bag was not like a silver or copper coin.
Without saying a word, the old man slapped the money bag in Xie Tou's hand, pointed at Liang Shiming, and said, "Please Xie Tou dress him up and take him into the house, and he will definitely get in and out." It's well arranged, and the old man still has a lot of thanks!"
The official checked the money bag and said with a smile: "It's easy to say!" and then naturally stuffed it into his arms, and when his hand was pulled out of his arms again, he took out a paper bag, and immediately threw it to Liang Shiming, saying, "That, it's not human, give, put it on!"
Seeing that it was a false alarm, Liang Shiming didn't dare to ask more, and immediately took the paper bag thrown by the official. When I held it in my hand, I found that this paper bag was as light and thin as a fish bladder, but after it was unfolded, it was a coat made of fish skin, and the smell of fishiness was piercing to the eyes and nose.
The old man immediately walked up to help Liang Shiming put it on his body, and then said solemnly: "This son, the old man has now done what he says, and the rest is what you promised me, I hope you will save my grandson's life." ”
"Don't worry, the old man, the younger generation will never break his word!" Liang Shiming said deeply.
"Let's go, let's go!" the official urged, and then took Liang Shiming into the prison team, admonished him to bow his head and follow the back of the team, and then escorted the prisoner team along the waterway and slowly walked away.
At the end of the prison team, Liang Shiming prayed that he would find Buhong in the government mansion as he walked, but when he was calm and recalled what he had just encountered, he felt an unprecedented unknown fear hit him instantly. Involuntarily, he buried his head lower.
The wandering prisoners waded slowly along the waterway, bustling and noisy with people along the two banks.
At this time, Liang Shiming's mind was full of wooden basin human bones, and the cannibalistic officials he would meet, maybe he was too nervous, he unconsciously peeked to the side, just this glance, he felt extremely regretful. It turned out that the men and women, old and young, on the steps on both sides of the waterway were all born with the same alien appearance as the previous women and officials, and Liang Shiming was trembling and his scalp was numb. He couldn't help but think that the people were still like this, and the cannibal official family was not more like a hell Yama? But since he came to find Buhong, he couldn't be afraid, thinking of this, he took a deep breath, and simply lowered his head honestly, out of sight, out of mind.
Along the way, although Liang Shiming bowed his head and walked forward, he heard a piece of news, that is, the most discussed thing on the steps on both sides, roughly saying that an old, dark, and ugly official here, who wants to accept a concubine, is still a budding little girl, known as Jin Jiao. It is rumored that this Jin Jiao has the appearance of a fairy in the nine heavens, the appearance of a beautiful woman in the sky, pure as ice, delicate as snow, and a little beauty with rich muscles and weak bones.
It is not uncommon for old husbands and young wives to be hired, it is nothing more than climbing power and attaching nobles, forcibly hiring, so Liang Shiming is not interested in this, and he is just a pastime on the road, he is more praying, praying that Buhong will not be eaten, but after thinking about it again, since the Maoshan Immortal Chief said that Buhong is the person of destiny in the world, then he should not have an accident. As a result, Liang Shiming had hope again, and then he was relieved.
Walking and walking, Liang Shiming felt that the surroundings were gradually quieting down, and secretly looked, and he had come to a tall and magnificent official office in front of him, and before he could take a closer look, he saw an official errand walking out of the side door, and came to the prison team in three or two steps to hand over a few words to Xie Tou, and then took the prison team and walked to the house. Watching Xie Tou, the only one he knew, leave, Liang Shiming couldn't help but worry, but now he didn't have time to sigh more, and he had already followed the prisoner into the mansion.
Stepping through the gate, going around the shadow wall, entering the courtyard, and walking along the brick path for a short time, the prisoner team stopped in front of a tall building with eight square eaves.
"Why did you come to the room?" Liang Shiming muttered to himself puzzled.
The official walked to the door of the kitchen first, pushed the double door open, and then looked at the prisoners from beginning to end with fierce eyebrows, and said viciously: "All in!" Before the words fell, the prisoner walked leisurely towards the door like a wandering spirit.
"Isn't it possible to go into the cell again after eating?" Liang Shiming muttered in his heart, while he secretly looked around, looking for a chance to leave.
"Damn!" Liang Shiming scolded in his heart, because as soon as he looked up, he found that the official standing in front of the door was staring at him from a distance, and he was so frightened that he lowered his head again.
"What should I do?" Liang Shiming asked himself scratching his heart. Although the prison team is moving slowly, it is now being watched by the officials and unable to move, and it will not be long before it is his turn.
"Could it be that that's it?" Liang Shiming, who was helpless, oozed beads of sweat from his forehead, and his hands were desperately pulled together, almost pulling out blood. He thought about forcibly escaping, but in the end he didn't do it, not because he was afraid of being caught, but because he didn't even have the only chance to find Ayuhiro.
Just when he was anxious and about to despair, he suddenly heard a familiar voice behind him.
"What are you still doing here? The wine and food are ready, just waiting for you, go!" said the person who came and passed by Liang Shiming and walked towards the official in front of the gate.
Hearing this voice, Liang Shiming was overjoyed and almost screamed, he clearly heard that the person who spoke was Xie Tou.
"No, I'm the only one who should be on this errand. The official in front of the door replied.
"It's fine. Xie Tou stepped forward and persuaded, "Don't worry about these dead fish, just listen to my brother and go." After saying that, he forcibly pulled the official to leave, and when he passed by Liang Shiming's side, he secretly gave him a look.
Seeing Xie Tou pulling the official away from the errand, Liang Shiming breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but be grateful to the old man who helped him, as well as Xie Tou who took the money to do things. But then I thought about it, the official errand in front of me was gone, but where did I go to find Bu Hong? In this deep mansion compound, don't say that I am dressed like this, even if I let go and let myself look for it, I am afraid that I will lose my way.
He looked back at the road, afraid that he would bump into the official messenger when he turned back, so he looked at the front of the team again, but found that not only could not see the slightest bit of fire and smoke in this room, but also could not hear the sound of the stove.
When he walked to the door of the room, Liang Shiming immediately felt a foul smell rushing towards him and causing people to retch, so he covered his nose and mouth and carefully poked his head in.
Inside, it was dark and dark, except for a glimmer of light where the door was opened, and the prisoners who had just entered were still lined up in the room. At this time, Liang Shiming heard the sound of "plopping" from the front of the team, but because of the poor light, he couldn't see anything. Prompted by curiosity, Liang Shiming groped forward to see what was going on.
When he came to the front of the team, he saw a scene that he regretted for the rest of his life: blood was flowing on the ground, and there were piles of dead corpses lying horizontally, and what was even more frightening was that a prisoner with his back to him in front of him was holding a kitchen knife from the chest to the lower abdomen from top to bottom, and the liver, gallbladder and intestines gushed out, and then the kitchen knife was slashed horizontally at the neck, and then the blood gushed in all directions, and the body also fell to the ground in response. What's even more terrifying is that the prisoners in the back follow themselves and repeat this action, like a puppet.
"Ah!" Liang Shiming cried out in a heartbroken voice. At this time, he saw that a person in front of him was picking up a kitchen knife from the ground, and secretly screamed in his heart, at this time, Liang Shiming didn't know where to get the courage, and immediately rushed up with an arrow, slapped the prisoner's back sharply, and said sharply: "Wake up!"
The prisoner shuddered as if he had just woken up, and then slowly turned his face......
This face, although it is close to Liang Shiming, makes his soul fly out of the sky.
It turned out that, unlike ordinary people, only half of the prisoner's face had eyebrows, eyes, nose, and mouth, and the other half had only bald folds......
At this moment, before Liang Shiming could scream, he felt that someone was slamming his shoulder behind him. In despair, Liang Shiming's mind went blank, and he subconsciously turned his head slowly and stiffly.
Turning around, accompanied by a burst of virgin fragrance, Liang Shiming clearly saw a little girl with a red Luo Xia veil and a phoenix crown behind him.
She, with ice muscles and snow bones, can be seen by light, where the bead curtain rises, her eyes are like autumn water, and her nose is like a hanging gall;
She seems to be displeased, her lips are slightly opened, her eyebrows are slightly locked, and her cheeks are moving, which is provocative.
Just one glance, Liang Shiming suddenly felt panic and sorrow like 10,000 years of ice and snow, which melted away instantly after being blown by the warm wind.
Even though Liang Shiming has read sage books since he was a child, he has rarely been involved in the affairs of men and women, not to mention that there is an unbelievable Qingqi fairy standing in front of him. In an instant, he was completely stunned.
And just when Liang Shiming's heart was ethereal, someone outside the room suddenly shouted: "Jin Guiren is running, Jin Guiren is running!"
Liang Shiming woke up suddenly, looked at the little girl in front of him, and asked, "Are you a golden ......?"
"Shhhh ”
If it weren't for another shout outside the room, the little girl's emerald warbler almost made Liang Shiming get drunk like a dream.
"Here, here!" the shout was so clear that it was almost outside the door.
At this moment, the little girl's eyebrows narrowed slightly, grabbed Liang Shiming's cuffs, and said hurriedly: "Follow me!"
