Chapter 17 Qingyang City
Nan Yanxue finally followed down the mountain, Song Yunchi acquiesced to her, he said that it was okay to let her go down the mountain to experience the experience, although she won the first place in the martial arts, but the master did not accept her as an apprentice, Song Yunchi also knew that accepting her as an apprentice had no effect, she was not capable of carrying forward the Tianqingmen exercises, if she was left alone on the mountain, it would be a headache, let her go through the experience, maybe she could change her temperament.
The situation in Qingyang City is getting more and more serious, the corpses that only appeared at night before began to appear during the day, the corpses were sucked dry and the blood was shriveled, the whole city was panicked, everyone said that it was a monster, the Qingyang Hou Mansion invited a Taoist priest to catch demons, and the next day people found the body of the Taoist priest in the City God Temple outside the city, and the Hou Mansion had to send someone to Tianyun Mountain to ask Tianqingmen to go out of the mountain to catch demons.
When the little servant of the Hou Mansion arrived at the Azure Gate, the whole person was shaking, he said that there were monsters in Qingyang City, and when the master asked him what kind of monster he was, he instantly fell to the ground and looked at the disciples in the hall with round eyes, as if these disciples were monsters.
"It drains people's blood. ”
"The kid doesn't let it go. ”
The little girl cried out as she spoke, Nan Yanxue saw an adult crying like that for the first time, although she also loved to cry, but she felt that she hadn't grown up yet, it turned out that people would be so ugly when they cried, so don't cry anymore in the future.
Shizun looked at the little guy who was paralyzed on the ground and had to send someone to send him back in person, Bai Yifan was the person in charge of this task, and after he sent him back, he said that Qingyang City did have a great demonic aura, and he looked around Qingyang City and did not find the shadow of the monster, but there was a great demonic aura in Qingyang City.
"I think there's something weird about the Hou Mansion. Bai Yifan said.
Qingyang Hou Mansion is in a high position in the imperial court, the current Hou Mansion Lord has two concubines in addition to the main lady, the eldest lady has two sons and a daughter, the second lady has a son and a daughter, the third lady has no children, the three women are the most fierce between the eldest lady and the second lady, the second lady does not put the eldest lady in her eyes by relying on the favor of the lord, the third lady is cowardly and dare not speak, and has always existed like transparency.
Originally, the power of the two women in the house was in a balanced state, two years ago, the second lady seemed to have suddenly changed her temperament, she was no longer obsessed with fighting with the eldest lady, but copied Buddhist scriptures every day, and was willing to give, and the people in the town praised the second lady as a bodhisattva.
This is a good thing, but it was seen by a street fortune teller, one day when the second lady was giving porridge, the fortune teller happened to be thirsty and went to get a bowl of thin rice porridge, the second lady was kind, afraid that the fortune teller a bowl of porridge was not enough, and the maid next to him sent two steamed buns over.
The fortune teller is not good at eating and drinking for nothing, so he decided to count it for the second lady, it doesn't matter, and the rumors that the Hou Mansion is afraid of evil will spread.
Hou Mansion didn't want to ignore the rumors spread more and more outrageous, some people even claimed to see evil things in and out of the Hou Mansion, the Hou Mansion Master can rise step by step is also because of the evil help, the Hou Mansion Master had no choice but to invite the Taoist, please ask the monk to do the law in the Mansion, several tosses down to nothing, but the rumors have never been blocked, plus Qingyang City has repeatedly appeared innocent people killed, although the people have no evidence and dare not go to the Hou Mansion to make trouble, but also complained to the Hou Mansion, some people with rich assets moved out of Qingyang City, and the Hou Mansion went to ask for help from Tianqingmen。
Tianqingmen does not interfere in the affairs of the rivers and lakes and the imperial court, but it is a matter of demons and evils and has to be managed, not to mention that the elimination of demons and guards is the business of Tianqingmen, so it is better to be a favor to him.
The disciples of Chaoxia Peak and Cuiyun Peak were sent to Qingyang City, and the disciples of Lingyun Peak and Luocang Peak were sent to another place to subdue demons and eliminate demons.
The head of Qingyang and the head of each peak repeatedly told everyone before the disciples set off to be cautious and not reckless after going down the mountain, especially Yuerou specially explained that Nan Yanxue should not be willful to listen to Bai Yifan's words obediently, Nan Yanxue's head was like a chicken pecking rice, for her, as long as she could go down the mountain, she was unwilling to go down the mountain with her, she folded some peach blossoms and originally wanted to put the butterfly on the peach blossom, but found that the butterfly was unwilling to fall up, back and forth a few times before she understood that the butterfly was unwilling to go down the mountain, maybe it was the reason for the previous injury, then let it stay in Tianyun Mountain。
Nan Yanxue deliberately got some peach branches and put them in the room before leaving, and opened the window to let the butterflies enter and exit freely, and the butterflies flew around her and around Yunfeng, she knew that it meant to let Yunfeng take care of her.
"You have to take care of yourself, too. Nan Yanxue said to the butterfly.
On the second day, Bai Yifan took the disciples of Chaoxia Peak, Lian Yao took the disciples of Cuiyun Peak to resist the fairy sword respectively, Nan Yanxue did not know how to take the sword and had to be carried by people, it was originally Bai Yifan who wanted to take her, she refused, she had to fight the sword with Yunfeng, Yunfeng was also very doting and pulled her to drive the Xuanying Sword with Taoism, Yunfeng Dao practice is solid, although there is a person, the sword is also easy, the two of them stood on the sword, the sword swished into the air, Nanyanxue was so frightened that she hugged Yunfeng tightly, she poked her head out to look to the side, a cloud flew by her, she tried to slowly stretch out her hand to catch a cloud floating to her side, I only felt a little cool feeling in my hand but didn't grasp anything.
Yun Feng was afraid of her, so he stretched out an arm to wrap his arms around her, and her small body was particularly safe hiding in Yun Feng's arms.
"Giggle...... It turns out that Edgeworth is so fun, and I'm going to learn it in the future. As soon as Nan Yanxue finished speaking, she thought about it if she learned the sword, Brother Yunfeng was afraid that she would not take her the sword again, so forget it or not.
"Forget it, I still don't want to learn. She looked at Yunfeng and said.
"It's all good. He said she looked at him with fluttering eyelashes as she spoke.
Ye Qingli's imperial sword flew past them, Nan Yanxue saw her glance at her expressionlessly and then accelerated and flew away, Nan Yanxue looked at her back and was stunned for a long time without saying anything.
"My sister looks in a bad mood. “
Yunfeng hugged Nan Yanxue to his side, "She's like that, just don't mess with her." ”
How dare she provoke her, she felt frightened when she looked at the cold light sword in her hand.
When they arrived in the city, in order to avoid trouble, they changed the clothes of the disciples of Tianqingmen early in the morning, and it did not arouse any suspicion, but Ye Qingli's beautiful appearance caused a lot of sensation, provoking many passers-by to stop and watch, Nan Yanxue peeked at Ye Qingli on the side, and saw that although she was expressionless, her eyes flashed a trace of anger, and she couldn't help but worry about these passers-by, in case Yao Guang came out of the sheath one day, I am afraid that no one will be able to hide from it.
The housekeeper of the Hou Mansion was in the largest inn in Qingyang City "Yuelai" early in the morning The inn is waiting for them, the Hou Mansion specially invited Tianqingmen to go down the mountain to catch demons is naturally the best place to arrange, this inn is quite large, the wooden structure of the inn is divided into two floors, there are two annexes in the back, each of which has several rooms, Chaoxia Peak and Cuiyun Peak each lived in a villa, Nan Yanxue wanted to go to Cuiyun Peak to live in that annex, but Bai Yifan did not allow her to go over, Ye Qingli also had a cold face, she looked at her a little scared and gave up this plan, Bai Yifan led the people of Chaoxia Peak back to rest for a while and then went to the second floor of the inn to eat together。
The second floor of the inn is divided into a number of boxes, relatively quiet, open the window, outside the window is the most lively street in Qingyang City, sitting in the room you can clearly see every move of the people of Qingyang City, which is very beneficial to the Azure Gate, you can observe the movement of the demon at any time, if there is really a demon and evil appear, it is also convenient to do it.
Nan Yanxue looked at the glass jars placed on the table that were particularly exquisite, she walked up to the senior brother and asked in a low voice, "Senior brother, do you need a lot of money here?"
Bai Yifan smiled slightly and said: "This is the best inn in Qingyang City, naturally it is not cheap, but the Hou Mansion invited us to collect the demons, and he will naturally arrange everything." ”
"Then can I order a lot of delicious food?" Nan Yanxue asked, as soon as she entered the door, she saw a lot of delicious food on the table of the guests in the lobby downstairs, and she almost drooled.
Bai Yifan smiled and nodded: "It should be possible." ”
Nan Yanxue listened to Bai Yifan's words and immediately called the shopkeeper and said, "Bring all the delicious things in your store." The shopkeeper said in a long voice: "Okay ......" couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, this is a big business, and the shopkeeper will definitely reward him with a few more copper coins.
After a while, the shopkeeper served a table of dishes, including freshly stewed sea bass, steamed mandarin fish, braised pork, etc., and some seasonal vegetables, Nan Yanxue urged the senior brothers to sit down and couldn't wait to take a bite of the mandarin fish, the mandarin fish meat is white, it tastes fragrant and tender, and it is really much better than the senior brothers in Chaoxia Peak, Nan Yanxue ate the mandarin fish plate cleanly and cleanly, and there was not even a single fish bone, and the shopkeeper looked at the greedy Nan Yanxue and smiled and couldn't close his mouth:" The girl is really a good blessing, this mandarin fish is the signature dish of our inn, it is transported from the South East China Sea, on the way in order to keep the water fresh, to ensure that the mandarin fish is still alive when it arrives, the fish meat is the best to eat, today this mandarin fish is the last one in our store, if the girl comes a day late, she will not be able to eat, so the girl is really a good blessing. ”
Nan Yanxue immediately pouted when she heard the words of the shopkeeper, she still wanted to eat it every day, but she didn't expect that this was the last one, and they definitely didn't eat it either.
"Then won't we be able to eat in the future?" Nan Yanxue asked in a depressed mood.
"If the girl wants to eat, the shop can also go and get a few more, but it will take a few days, and the girl is afraid that she will not be able to eat them in these days. The shopkeeper replied.
"It's okay, it's okay, I'll wait, we're going to stay here for a long time, right, senior brother?" Nan Yanxue said and looked at Bai Yifan.
Bai Yifan said helplessly: "Three or five days." "He has always had no way to do anything about this little junior sister, and besides, the senior sister also told him that he wanted her to take good care of her, if he didn't allow her, he was afraid that she would go back to sue again.
"It will be done in five days, and the little one will go and find it for the girl. The shopkeeper said and exited the room, and Nan Yanxue looked at the back of the shopkeeper with satisfaction, as if she could eat it again tomorrow.
After eating the delicious meal, all the senior brothers returned to their residences satisfied, Bai Yifan said to everyone in the other garden: "You guys are here to rest tonight, Lord Gu has not returned from the court today, tomorrow morning, we will go to Gu Hou's Mansion to meet again." ”
