In a deep stone cave in the middle of nowhere

On the stone wall in the cave, there are all kinds of strange patterns carved, like birds and beasts, each appearance is fierce, but almost none of them can be named.

On the ground below, there are also stone statues of various spirits and evil ghosts, which are placed on both sides in such a mess, and the cave looks very deep and terrifying.

There is a huge stone chair in the center, and the shape of the chair is like the most terrible "evil ghost" in people's hearts.

And the person sitting on it at this moment is like sitting in the mouth of an "evil ghost".

However, what he wears is a "clown" mask that resembles a folk opera, which looks very comical and obviously does not fit the scene here.

He was staring at the statues in the stone plaza below, admiring them as if he had seen something wonderful.

In front of him stood two people, medium in stature, with their hands behind their backs, dressed in black and white clothes, wearing strange masks of one black and one white, if I had to say, probably the legendary "black and white impermanence".

In the open space in the middle of the stone square below, a group of people, about forty or fifty, stood.

Everyone wore strange masks, and most of the masks on their faces resembled those on stone walls or stone carvings.

Around them, in addition to the stone carvings, there were gold, silver and jewels everywhere, discarded as if they were "garbage".

And this group of people didn't care about these treasures that were enough to make countless people crazy.

At this moment, the first person stepped forward, clasped his fists and saluted: "Holy King, this operation has been successfully completed, and our side has lost thirty-seven people, of which four ghosts will unfortunately die. ”

"What a waste, such a careful arrangement, the loss of so many people", on the stone chair, the person called the "Holy King", first scolded coldly and angrily, and then said calmly: "Fortunately, the task has finally been completed, I remember that you are the first time, and the merits and demerits will be offset! Later, take some treasures and go down to reward the meritorious people." ”

"Thank you, Holy King!"

Fortunately, he was not punished, but the cruel Lord was not punished, so the man was not only relieved, but also expressed his gratitude.

Then, the "Holy King" glanced at the rest of the people with cold eyes, and said coldly again: "Be careful for me in the future, once you receive the order, you must only succeed and not fail, otherwise, hmph! This Holy King doesn't mind sending him to see the "Holy Beast", okay, let's go down!"

Everyone present could feel the horror of the person under this funny mask, as if his words and deeds could determine life and death.

Of course, no one dared to speak out against it, and they all honestly retreated.

......

Chiba country, Kasumi Castle, Yuzhuxuan

"Old man, this girl has personally brought you wine, hurry up and take out the baby!" Qing'er began to shout outside the courtyard gate.

Baby, the ancestor's life is a baby, do you dare?

The old man knows where there is a treasure, but he is also used to this girl's temperament, and he thinks in his heart that it is actually quite cute.

But he pretended to be fierce and said: "Stinky girl, when did the old man say that he was going to exchange the baby for wine, and this wine was promised to me by your husband!"

Qing'er didn't believe it, thinking that Mr. wouldn't lie to herself, so she looked back at Jiang Li.

With his chin slightly raised, Jiang Li gestured: "Oh, there! See the two strange grasses by the window that look a little starry on the leaves? ”

The gentleman said that there would be no mistake, Qing'er threw the wine bottle directly at the old man, and said excitedly: "Next! The baby is mine!" After speaking, he ran under the window.

Oh, my wine!

Looking at the green jade pot that was "flying all over the sky", the old man had to use both hands and feet, but fortunately he didn't miss one, otherwise he would have to die of distress.

No, I haven't said yes, old man!

After coming back to his senses, he remembered that he had never promised, but looking at Qing'er's happy appearance, he couldn't say anything if he refused.

But when I thought of these two strains of "Xinghua", which I had secretly studied and studied for a few months, and then it took nearly three years to cultivate, I suddenly felt a pain in my flesh, and I had to look at Jiang Li with hatred.

But Jiang Li didn't seem to see it, looking left and right, ignoring him completely.

Angrily, he hid all the wine bottles in the house, and then walked out with a black face, took a seemingly ordinary stone in his hand, threw it to Jiang Li, and said, "What you want is on it, get out of here." ”

"Thanks, old ghost! By the way, a beautiful woman and a young man who looks like a little Taoist priest will come looking for me in the next two days, remember not to stop them. ”

"Get out!"

Regarding Jiang Li's attitude of not only treating his yard as a "back garden", but also treating himself as a "gatekeeper", the old man could only jump to his feet and scold angrily.

Later, Qing'er held a "Xinghua" in one hand, followed Jiang Li behind him, and when he left, he didn't forget to naughtily stick out his tongue at the old man.

As a result, Yuzhuxuan was left alone with the old man.

......

At night, there is no dwelling

The brother and sister stood side by side under the pavilion in the courtyard not far from the river, as if they had not talked, and they did not know what they were looking at, so they fixed there, like a landscape.

And General Mo was holding a gun in the courtyard and gestured casually, looking at his expression, as if he was studying some moves.

However, after being stopped by Qing'er's girl last time, he didn't dare to make any more big moves.

The two sisters, Qing'er and Lanyi, were staring at the two "Xinghua" brought back at noon.

After a while, the little girl shouted: "Sir, Miss, come and see! What Mr. said is right, these two grasses are indeed treasures, and the starlight on these leaves is worse at night than during the day, as if it is really starry sky!"

So, the brother and sister also came over and admired it together.

Knowing a smile and bowing slightly, Jiang Wei thought that the old man really had some skills, and he really taught him to cultivate it.

Jiang Yue's eyes are also shining, women naturally love beauty, although she prefers purple like her clothes, but the things in front of her can be regarded as a "wonder".

At this time, Lan Yi said with some shame: "Sir, such a good thing was really given to my two sisters, is it a bit too wasteful?"

You two sisters have taken care of me since I was a child, and like Yue'er, we are both my beloved sisters.

What's the difference between the family, I'm still worried that you think I'm too petty!"

This woman felt beautiful in her heart.

At the same time, I can't help but think of when I was a child, the person in front of me who was lying in bed all the year round and could only sit on a wooden chair with wheels when he went out, teaching people to feel sad.

At that time, Qing'er was tiptoeing to feed him medicine and eat, while Lan Yi was reading various medical books and martial arts for him to learn.

But... Is it just my sister? maybe... It's not bad to do that, Lan Yi thought.

Then, she spoke: "My sisters have no father or mother since they were children, and it was the old man who took pity on us and picked them up, and it is also appropriate to serve Mr., and I am willing to serve Mr. for a lifetime." ”

"Yes, it's a pity that the old man went to ...... early" Qing'er became sad and sad again after agreeing with her head.

The "old man" is naturally Jiang Li's master, and he is also the former owner of this courtyard, known as the "noble doctor without life" - Liu Wusheng.

When it comes to the deceased, especially the deceased, several people are inevitably sad.

So they didn't want to mention it too much, but they kept it in their hearts, and then, they looked up at the starry sky, as if they wanted to find something......
