That night, a waning moon was in the sky, and the soft moonlight spread the earth.

It's a time when everything is quiet.

At the same time that Sikong Jiujiu came to see the ape flying to the sun and the moon, a slender woman figure also carried a wooden box containing food and water and came alone to a bush near the Red River Valley.

The soft and phantom moonlight poured down, reflecting the young woman's bright white face.

It's Qin Mengyao!

As usual, Qin Mengyao put the prepared meal and some water into this wooden box, and then came here alone with the wooden box, and then placed it on a square stone and turned away without hesitation. But this time it seems to be slightly different from the past, after Qin Mengyao put down the wooden box, she was not in a hurry to leave, but stood quietly aside, her beautiful eyes turned around, and she looked around.

It seemed to be waiting for the mysterious man who had come to pick up the food.

At this moment, a very strange gust of wind suddenly roared towards Qin Mengyao's side.

The reason why this gale is very strange is that it came very suddenly, without the slightest warning. Moreover, it was accompanied by a palpitating soul coercion, which made Qin Mengyao breathless, and a feeling of suffocation from the soul arose.

But Qin Mengyao could only endure and keep silent, slowly looking sideways, her beautiful eyes were firmly focused on the direction of the strong wind, and her complexion did not seem to change in the slightest.

Qin Mengyao's waist-length hair was as bright as a dark cloud, fluttering in the wind. makes the already beautiful and unearthly Qin Mengyao add a few points of mature charm and style.

Immediately after, in Qin Mengyao's sight, a thick white smoke swept towards her with the wind. Like a flood bursting its banks, it drowns and swallows everything here......

After a while, the white smoke gradually dissipated...... After the white smoke cleared, a slender white figure slowly appeared in front of her.

It was the figure of a grown man, dressed in a more ordinary white robe, with the same head, two shoulders, hands, and two legs, and he seemed to be the same as the others, and the only difference was that there was a silver mask covering half of his face out of thin air. It does seem a little dark and mysterious.

The masked man's brows sank slightly: "The thing has been put down, why don't you leave?"

Qin Mengyao said: "You better stop! Don't catch those innocent brides anymore, okay?"

As soon as Qin Mengyao's words came out, all the strange and bizarre mysteries about the loss of the bride that had happened in Meizhen over the past few days had reasonable answers.

It turned out that the initiator of all these events was actually a real existence, a living person, all of whom were the work of a masked man who was not much different from others. It is not the so-called "mountain demon" that people say with false rumors and hearsay, and the more it spreads, the more evil it becomes.

In other words, this masked man is what people call the so-called "mountain demon", that is, the white ink painting that Yun Fan and the others are looking for now to fight in the battle to seize the seal, and the white ink painting that has disappeared for a long time in the Xiuwen Pavilion.

Although there must be a reason for the groundless wind, the rumors in the rivers and lakes cannot be trusted.

As soon as Qin Mengyao's words came out, it was like a muffled thunder that exploded in the masked man's soul, touching the unspeakable scars and scales of the mysterious masked man.

The so-called dragon's reverse scales will die if you touch it. This masked man is no exception, of course.

The soul of the "......" mask man and the true qi of the whole body went out of control at the same time in an instant, his figure suddenly moved forward, and his palm slammed into Qin Mengyao's snow neck, he roared lowly, and lifted her body to the ground, Qin Mengyao's body suddenly took off.

"......" His eyes were red, his eyes were bloodshot, and his face was terrifyingly hideous.

"I told you that you don't care about anything but food for me, why do you have so much to do?!" his fingers tightened sharply

The five fingers locked on Qin Mengyao's neck were like iron hooks, and her rapid breathing hit her pretty face like flames. Qin Mengyao let out a painful moan in her throat, but there was a terrifying calm in her eyes, and there was no panic. The beautiful eyes stared at the hideous face of the masked man who was close to him, raised his hand, grabbed his wrist, and said quietly: "You have become the target of everyone, I don't want you to have an accident." ”

The air became extremely cold, and in the terrifying silence, the masked man's hand slowly moved away from Qin Mengyao's neck, leaving five scarlet fingerprints.

He turned around with his hands behind his back, turned his back to Qin Mengyao, and didn't say a word.

As the masked man's palm moved away, the incomparably thick force attached to Qin Mengyao's neck disappeared instantly, and the terrifying feeling of suffocation also subsided.

Ahem, ahem!

Qin Mengyao coughed twice suddenly, and said with great difficulty: "Yun Fan and Sikong Yujiu, they want to deal with you, and if they can't find you, they won't give up." ”

"Hehe," the masked man chuckled and said gloomily, "Do you think that just a scholar and a doctor can deal with me?"

On the day Yun Fan stayed at the Yuelai Inn, Qin Mengyao inquired openly and secretly to find out the purpose of Yun Fan and the others. Finally, when she figured out that they were going to investigate the mountain demon, not long after, she took advantage of the time to give Bai Mohua food, and told Bai Mohua all the identities of Yun Fan, Sikong Yujiu and others.

After all, he had been gracious to himself. To be exact, it is a mountain that is kind to her child.

As for what exactly happened, and what the cause and effect was, this is a later story, and I will not mention it here for the time being.

Therefore, it is not surprising that Bai Mohua will know the identities of Yun Fan and Sikong Yujiu.

Qin Mengyao still covered her snow neck, and said cautiously: "They are not as simple as you think!"

"Good!" the masked man snorted, "I'll let them taste my power!"

Hahahahaha!

Bai Mohua laughed a few times, picked up the wooden box on the stone, and then shook his body, suddenly swept forward, and disappeared in front of Qin Mengyao in the blink of an eye.

Qin Mengyao's face was like a tide, standing in place, her eyes were firmly fixed on the direction in which the white ink painting disappeared, and she did not move for a long time.

——————

That night, for some reason, Yun Fan invited Sikong Jiuyi to take a hot spring, originally he also wanted to call him to die, but seeing that he was sleeping soundly, he dispelled this idea.

This hot spring is in the backyard of the inn, and it is Qin Mengyao's ingenuity, specially designed for guests who come and go to stay. To say that her business mind is really not covered.

After Yun Fan and Sikong Jiu finished soaking in the hot spring, they all walked out of the backyard slowly with a happy face, and at the nearest table in the front yard, Qin Mengyao had already prepared the freshly scalded wine, and poured a glass for Yun Fan and Sikong Yu.

Yun Fan and Sikong Jiu sat next to each other.

For some reason, Sikong Jiu faintly had a feeling that Yun Fan was in a very good mood tonight, and he was in a very happy mood.

Yun Fan sighed slightly and said with a smile: "After soaking in the hot spring, the whole person is really relaxed." ”

He felt that he was in the Qiong Yao fairyland, and his whole body was indescribably comfortable, and every pore was ...... Even every cell is full of infinite vitality, and every tense soul string seems to be relaxed. The feeling of fluttering is indescribably wonderful.

"Yun Gongzi, you are not only looking for people these days, but also trying to catch mountain demons, you must be overworked!" Qin Mengyao changed her words and asked casually: "By the way, I don't know if you think of a way to deal with mountain demons?"

Sui Kong Jiu looked at Qin Mengyao and said with a smile: "Boss Qin is very interested in knowing, why don't you help me loosen my muscles, and I will tell you slowly." ”

Qin Mengyao smiled in return: "Sikong Gongzi's bones are so hard, I'm afraid that I won't serve well." The tone is very light, very soft and gentle, but the coldness and irony in it are so straightforward that anyone who understands can hear it.

It is worthy of Qin Mengyao, who has such a pungent and straightforward personality! Sikong Yujiu secretly admired in his heart. The more she was like this, the more Sikong Jiu felt that Qin Mengyao's daughter was different from all the women she had met before, she was so different, for him, she was so fascinated by herself, and she was so attractive. It made him addicted to it and couldn't extricate himself.

Yun Fan: "......"

"Don't bother the two of you!" Qin Mengyao glanced at Yun Fan, said politely, and then left slowly. didn't even look at Sikong Jiujiu again, and directly ignored him.

After a while, it was determined that Qin Mengyao had completely left here. Yun Fan asked softly, "Have you thought of a way to deal with the mountain demon?"

"Not yet. Sikong Jiu looked at Yun Fan with a smile: "But, I guess you should have thought of it." Otherwise, how could you come to the hot spring so easily? ”

Sikong Jiu expected it well, Yun Fan did think of a way to deal with the mountain demon.

I only heard Yun Fan's eyes condense slightly, and a gleam in his eyes suddenly shot out: "Since the goal of the mountain demon is to marry a bride, then why don't I give him a bride!"

"Let's just give him a plan!" In the end, the corners of Yun Fan's mouth slightly hooked up a beautiful arc with a light smile. The eyebrows were curled, and the black eyes flashed like stars, and the light in the eyes became incomparably crystal deep at this time.

As soon as these words came out, Sikong Yujiu suddenly realized in his heart: "You mean to find someone to pretend to be a bride and lure the snake out of the hole!"

Yun Fan didn't say anything when he heard this, but listened to him continue: "As long as we can successfully lure the mountain demon out, the mystery of the white ink painting will naturally be solved."

Looking at Yun Fan's confident appearance, for some reason, Sikong Yu Jiu Xinxin felt an inexplicable touch.

Yun Fan's eyes slowly closed, holding his breath and concentrating, he didn't speak again, his consciousness was slightly sinking, and the power of Wuji Xuantian Gong was slowly running in the meridians in his body, as if he had entered a realm of epiphany......

At this moment, Sikong Jiu saw Yun Fan's eyes closed, and his consciousness seemed to be deeply trapped. His eyebrows suddenly jumped slightly, his eyes were cold, and for a moment, the murderous intent in his eyes appeared...... The words that Ape Fei Sun and Moon had spoken slowly flickered in his mind.

"If the two of them join forces, it will be even more difficult for you to kill Yun Fan again. I think you should hurry up and kill Yun Fan at the first opportunity, don't delay the opportunity. ”

The piercing white light flashed on the tip of Sikong Jiu's right finger, which had been placed under the table, and immediately after, a golden needle with terrifying killing intent and cold cold power suddenly appeared in his hand.

However, this time, the target is to directly target Yun Fan, a friend who sits next to him and trusts him in every way, and is unsuspecting.
