Chapter 15: Summer Solstice
In the Xiao Tang Mansion, Tang Xin, whose appearance can be called stunning, has changed her appearance at this time, and now her appearance is her original face
It is not inferior to the original appearance on the face, but also a little more fairy
The maid next to her pouted, "Sister, why are you so good-looking again?"
If it is a woman, she likes others to praise her beauty, but Tang Xin doesn't know how long she has been hiding it, and at this moment, she is also showing a knowing smile
"You will say, "For my sister who only turns her elbow outward and occasionally comes back to see, she really loves and hates it."
The one who walked into the Xiaotang Mansion was a handsome boy, if you looked closely, it was naturally the fairy man called by Leyi in today's alley
After seeing Tang Xin's true appearance, even if he was a man who had seen countless kinds of beauty, his heart was a little throbbing at this moment
"It seems that I want to congratulate my junior sister, the sword and the sword are used by the junior sister to warm up and match the sword, right?" The man with a little doubt, although he congratulated the woman, his expression was full of unkindness
The small sword in the sleeve seemed to have received an order, flew out of the woman's sleeve, squeaked through the air, and the tail of the small sword carried a streamer, and the man hurriedly dodged and sighed at the edge of the small sword
"It turns out that the top-level sword tripod qi machine is like this, and in addition to cultivating a flying sword, there are still many men's voices that already have a bit of yin and yang weirdness
Tang Xin, who ignored the man's tone, glanced at the man in front of him coldly, and then said softly to the maid beside him, "Are you ready?"
The maid smiled, with the feeling of doing something big in her smile, "Sister Hui, it's all done"
The man sighed, "It's worthy of being my junior sister, it's really much darker than me, and I don't dare to take this title anymore."

Tang Mansion, there are not many people in the Tang Mansion at night, but there are so many arranged family members, holding oil lamps in their hands, family members are dressed in plain clothes, and their hands are constantly rubbing their eyes, obviously this errand is not a good time
Today's night patrol is exceptionally crowded, and his companion of the night patrol is even more for some reason, he told himself early that he had something to do tonight, and secretly stuffed himself with a few copper coins
Although he didn't know what his companion was talking about, the man could guess a few points
I'm afraid that there is something wrong with my companion and the maid Lilac under the eldest lady
didn't ask for the companion's copper coin, but just asked Sister Lilac to say a few more words for herself in front of other maids
The Tang family is quite wise, if the maid and the family really love each other, they can also let the two get married
I heard that this is a rule that was revised after the head of the family took office, and if it was the original, it was called fornication, and no big family would allow it
will be directly broken legs and thrown out, even if it is sued to the yamen, no one will care about these idle things
————————
At night, the main street of Windy Snow City does not have the rules of those remote towns, and there will be many pedestrians at night
Zhixian, who was lying on the bed for a long time and didn't wake up, decided to go out and walk around, a man in plain clothes and an inconspicuous man walked on the street, who knows, it is a man's Zhixian, penniless
All the valuable things on his body are just the Tang knife hanging on his waist, passing by the tea shop on the street, Zhi Xian is an eye-opener, and the tea shop is also open at night
The man in the tea shop was busy, and he turned his head busily and happened to look at the roadside Zhixian, Wang De smiled slightly, and asked softly, "Brother, do you want a pot of tea?"
The current envy is really shy, and he shook his head a little embarrassed
Seeing this, Wang De smiled heartily, "I'm please, isn't it okay?"
Taking advantage of the situation, Zhixian sat directly in front of the small wooden table in the corner of the tea shop, which made Wang Dedu a little surprised
"Brother Wang, it's so late, why is it still open, I remember Leyi told me, you will go home to accompany your wife when it's dark?" said Zhi Xian jokingly
"Hey, by the way, my brother is from outside, not from Blizzard City, you don't see everyone setting up stalls on the street, not all of them are set up in the morning until evening, today, it's different"
Zhixian, who frowned, opened his mouth and asked, "What's the different method?"
As if he had been busy all day and finally came to talk to people, Wang De was like water opening the floodgates, explaining a lot endlessly, and finally drank all the tea in front of him
The most important thing is that he didn't delay his business, which made Zhixian a little impressed
As far as Zhixian knows, today is not another day, it is what his own era will have, the summer solstice
"The people who can live in Fengxue City are almost all generations of people, the summer solstice is a very important day for them, and it is also the wife at home today who told them that they must go out until midnight today" wiped the sweat on his face, and the busy Wang De finally sat down
On the windy and snowy streets, all the houses are closed at night, and the lamp oil lit by the surrounding stalls can also make the roads brighter at night
The weirdest thing is that the Tang family and the little Tang family are closing the door today, as if the summer solstice has nothing to do with them
The people who walked through the two gates would not guess the thoughts of this big family, and when they passed by, they hurriedly bypassed, for fear that they would open the door and block their way
At this time, Zhi Xian, who was sitting leisurely at the stall watching the market, suddenly trembled violently, and a voice flashed in his head, "Ahead"
The voice was faint and there were only two words, but Zhixian could hear it clearly, the two of them had a very happy conversation, and Zhixian, who was stunned for a moment, also frightened Wang De
"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Wang De asked tentatively, probably knowing that Zhixian would also have a one-and-a-half-trick, Wang De actually thought that this kid had realized something by talking to him, and he praised himself a little at that time
Zhi Xian waved his hand, "I'm fine"
After seeing that Zhixian said that it was okay, Wang De opened his mouth and said, "Hey, did you say that this year is interesting, the Tang family, which has always loved to be lively, is actually closed today, and the new Tang family is the same, these two seem to be more energetic."
At this time, Zhi Xian, who was thinking wildly in his mind, listened to Wang De's words halfway, and after hearing about the Tang family, Zhi Xian fell into deep thought
Wang De also smiled and got up to pour the tea, leaving him to sit in place and ponder
————————
Ding Tangcheng, a member of the Tang family who was still patrolling the night, kneaded his eyes, and finally came to the last backyard, and a figure suddenly walked past him, and his body was no different from his own size
Frightened, he almost exhaled, and the black shadow man who walked by him hurriedly shut up Tang Cheng with a silent gesture, if the lady in the backyard was alarmed by the night patrol at this moment, the two of them would almost die tonight
"Tang Cheng, don't be so cowardly, I'm me," the man who desperately grabbed Tang Cheng whispered
After hearing the familiar voice, Tang Cheng, who was a little mouthful, said curiously, "Didn't you kid go to Lilac?
The man smiled, explained tactfully, and then asked, "The backyard is over, is the patrol over?"
Tang Cheng grabbed the lantern in his hand, no longer paid attention to the man who appeared next to him, and slowly walked to the backyard by himself, with cold sweat flowing down his forehead
Today's Snow City, the night is different from the usual day, it is not starless and moonless, a bright moon hangs over the Snow City
Tang Cheng listened to the greeting from behind, and the cold sweat unconsciously wet the inner lining, the men who patrol the night will be more sensitive than ordinary people
When I meet someone at night, I am half skeptical, because of ghosts or something, people like him believe it the most
Those swordsmen who are the same as himself, he can see clearly, and the sword in his hand can fly
The bright moon and moonlight shine on the backyard of the Tang family, the two people in the backyard are one in front of the other, Tang Cheng in front, the shadow is vaguely visible, and the man behind him only sees the body, not his shadow!
Tang Cheng, who was in a cold sweat, didn't dare to look back, thinking about walking through the backyard, next to the worship hall, and shouting again
If a ghost shouts to himself behind him, he will turn his head and his soul will be gone
Tang Cheng, who was still extremely calm at this moment, was also rare, and the voices behind him gradually grew longer, Tang Cheng found that what he was thinking was not fiction, and the night patrol companion behind him who had been his partner for three years was really not a person
Blizzard City is a place with strict rules, but Blizzard City has never lacked people who break the rules, if a ghost enters Blizzard City, Snow Monster will not care
If it is driven away one by one, the real owner of this Wind and Snow City is afraid that the majesty will not exist, so there are such rules, and those who break the rules will attract the appearance of the snow monster
As everyone knows, the ghost behind Tang Cheng is only one, on the main street, inside the Tang Mansion, the inner courtyard, the outer courtyard, the other courtyard, except for the worship hall, on all the courtyard walls, countless black shadows raise the sky and look at the moon, like a mad demon looking down on this Tang Mansion
And the moment these ghosts appeared, it was only the moment Tang Cheng stepped into the backyard, as if he had made an appointment, and in an instant, countless ghosts covered the sky and the sun
However, no one in the worship hall noticed the ghostly spirit, and the door was closed, as if there was some mystery in it
——————
When he walked through the gate of the Tang family, Zhi Xian felt that his whole body exuded a cold feeling, which made him want to walk through the gate quickly
As soon as he raised his feet, his waist began to tremble, "You let me go inside?" Zhi Xian asked
The intention trembled again, as if to say yes
"I'm like this, I'll die if I go in, there's something in it," Zhixian said with some embarrassment
It seems that some hatred of iron is not steel, and the violent tremor in his intention makes Zhixian a little unable to hold it
As if he couldn't resist the child, Zhixian had to agree again and again, and then he stopped trembling in his mind
found a low position on the courtyard wall of the Tang Mansion, Zhi Xian jumped up in one step, his body jumped into the air, grabbed the courtyard wall with both hands, and climbed up hard
Then he squatted on the courtyard wall, looked around, and in the courtyard, he suddenly felt a hint of coldness around him
Zhixian turned his head to look, only to see that he was squatting on the courtyard wall, there was a black shadow beside him, and his posture was the same as his own, looking at himself at this time, a grimace seemed to be laughing
Where have I seen such a battle of Zhi Xian, I almost exclaimed, if it weren't for the fact that I had a knife qi hidden in my mind, and quietly tore the ghost apart, Zhi Xian would really be shouting
The sword qi dissipated, and Zhi Xian looked at the intention "Now, you have to cover me"
It is not denied that this is the case, at this time, if you want to fight ghosts in the flesh, let alone spend some effort, the essence and blood that you have cultivated in the past few months of boxing are afraid that the ghost thing, the best tonic
Martial arts practice, cultivate physique, make full use of a body of essence blood, and the endless yang energy in the essence blood is sufficient, so that ghosts do not dare to approach the body at all, otherwise they will be injured by yang energy
Stopping the envy of essence and blood is obviously not enough like this, such a half-step martial arts mold is really the ghost's favorite thing
