On the top of the Fusang tree in the depths of Daliang Mountain, the willow Fusang stands on the branches and leaves on the top of the tree, gently swaying with the mountain wind. Two strands of green silk hung down the sideburns on his chest.

Liu Fusang looked up at the stars in the sky above with his fingers curled with supple green silk, like a fairy walking out of a painting.

After a while, there was a crisp chirping behind her, and a colorful sparrow happily landed on her shoulder, and her mouth spoke.

"Sister, did you really decide to go and pick that snow lotus by yourself, aren't you afraid of that evil dragon?"

Liu Fusang stretched out his green jade finger and lightly tapped the sparrow's delicate little mouth, smiled slightly, and replied softly.

"Evil dragons, silly birds, we are demons, since ancient times the demon head is a dragon, since we are the same race, what reason should we be afraid of? Besides, rumors are rumors after all, and the dragon clan died out a long, long time ago. There is no dragon in the world. ”

Que'er nodded obediently, tilted her small head to look at the admiring sister in front of her and asked, "Sister, you said that we practiced for a lifetime in order to transform into immortals." Is it really the right way to turn into people? Why don't I see it?"

Liu Fusang looked at the finch, and then looked at the far north. Sighed softly.

"People, greed, hatred, anger, seven emotions and six desires, love and hatred. That's why we are called human beings, isn't it just that we have practiced for hundreds of years and thousands of years to stop being that beast that can only wrap around the belly?"

The sparrow flew in front of Liu Fusang, turned into a little girl, held Liu Fusang's hand and said coquettishly: "I don't understand, but my sister is right, that's right." ”

Liu Fusang lovingly tapped the tip of the finch's delicate nose, and said in a weak voice: "Is it so important whether it is right or wrong?"

Inside the inn.

The short old man took the gourd that had already been filled with wine, and took a big sip.

Gong Baojiu stared at the old man intently and asked, "You just said that you know the origin of the doll?"

The old man smacked his lips, and he still looked unfinished. Listening to his husband's question, he hurriedly replied: "Yes, I know, but I am not sure." After all, this man hadn't been seen for 500 years. If it's him, I'm afraid ......"

"Huh?" Gong Baojiu glared slightly, not angry and arrogant, and the momentum exuded from his body was enough for everyone to surrender. If Hu Man'er were again at this time, he would definitely not think that this person would be the Gong Baojiu who slacked his beard and patted horses.

Even if the old man is a peerless master, I don't know how much higher his cultivation is than Gong Baojiu. But at this time, he was also shocked into a cold sweat by Gong Baojiu. Hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Back to Mr. Hui, if what Hu Xiao'er said is true, this doll should be ...... It should be Su Jinyan, one of the only two remaining demon envoys under the command of the Demon Lord. ”

Hearing this, Gong Baojiu frowned, and his face was full of solemnity. Zhengse said: "Are you sure?"

The old man hesitated a little, after all, he had not seen this person with his own eyes, and then shook his head and said affirmatively: "If what Hu Xiao'er said is true, it must be this person." In fact, according to legend, this Su Jinyan is not a demon clan, but is actually half human and half demon. Because his mother was a man, and his father was a demon. And because he was born strange, he can't grow, he will always be three or four years old, and he will be excluded. Later, he met the Demon Lord and received a spell from his side. I didn't think that this doll was indeed extremely perceptive, and in just a few years, it became the right-hand man of the Demon Lord. ”

The old man stroked his beard and continued: "It is rumored that this person looks harmless to humans and animals, but in fact he is murderous and extremely cruel, and even killed his biological father because he hated his own background. Let's just say that such a person in the demon path left the life of the surnamed Hu, sir, do you know why?"

"Why?" asked Gong Baojiu.

"This bearded boy turned out to be the host of the magic pill. The old man seemed to be addicted to alcohol again, so he hurriedly raised the wine gourd and poured a big sip of wine before he said.

"What is that? Gong Baojiu was a little puzzled.

"Since the Demon Lord was sealed, a magic pill has been generated in the world every hundred years. It is not known when or where it will appear, nor will it necessarily be born in a man or a beast. I just know that this magic pill is like a key to open the seal of the demon lord. If it is obtained by the demons, the consequences are unimaginable. The old man replied.

"A hundred years of rebirth, is it like reincarnation?" Gong Baojiu stood up and walked to the window, taking out an iron fan and inciting faintly. Suddenly thought of something and asked, "What about the carriers of the few demon pills before, if it is one born in a hundred years, then there should be four hosts in front of Hu Man'er." ”

"Indeed, two of them have not been found, so they have not been found. There is a host that everyone knows who it is, but no one dares to take it. The other was on a wild civet cat, but fortunately it was discovered by the dust master of the Qingyin Temple and strangled it. And Master Lichen also broke his vows and killed, and he never went down the mountain again to this day. The old man replied.

"No one dares to take it? Who has such great ability. Also, if you know that Hu Man'er is the host of this life, then if the doll is taken away, why would you let Hu Man'er go? This is also unreasonable, can't it be a mistake?" Gong Baojiu exuded a supreme arrogance.

"That person is the Demon Emperor Liu Fusang. ”

"What?" Gong Baojiu instantly straightened up when he heard the name, and shouted in surprise.

"It's true, but very few people know about it at this time, and presumably the demon side also knows a rough idea, but he didn't take it. Now that the demon pill has appeared on Hu Man'er, it should be that the Demon Emperor has destroyed it by some means, or the Demon Emperor has already ...... It is also unknown. The old man paused for a moment and continued to return.

"Sir doesn't know, this magic pill needs to be combined with the right time, place and people at the same time. Otherwise, even if it is taken out rashly, it is useless, and it can only be taken out when it is ripe, and the factors that catalyze its maturity are evil, anger, hatred, and fear. It is the root of all the ugliness in the world. Therefore, the subordinates guessed that Su Jinyan did not make a move, but the time had not yet come. ”

Gong Baojiu may have been a little tired when he heard this, and waved his hand and said, "Okay, I know." This is not a trivial matter, you don't have to be by my side anymore, and I order you to go back and inform your family of this matter as soon as possible, so that they can be fully prepared. He also sent people to inform the major forces that this matter must not be concealed and must be properly handled. ”

The old man was a little embarrassed to hear Gong Baojiu's arrangement, but he didn't dare to disobey, so he had to resign himself and said, "Sir, leave you alone, your subordinates...... Your subordinates are really not at ease, after all, your identity is ...... If there is really anything wrong, the subordinates ......"

"Hey...... Liu Lao, I have been brought up by you since I was a child, and you also understand my temperament, nothing will go wrong. Besides, with my cultivation, self-preservation should be no problem. In this way, let Xiaoqing stay, and the rest of the people will all withdraw. Gong Baojiu was a little helpless, and said with a wry smile with tenderness in his eyes.

At this point, the old man who was called Liu Lao had no choice but to respond. After taking another sip of wine, he withdrew and ordered.

After Liu Lao left, Gong Baojiu stroked his cheek with his hand and let out a long sigh.

"Come out, do you think Liu Lao doesn't know you're there, but he just doesn't want to embarrass you, just be careful. ”

A black shadow flashed outside the window and appeared in front of Gong Bao Jiu, who was one of the black-robed people before.

The black-robed man reached out and slowly took off his black hat and veil. A delicate girl appeared in front of Gong Baojiu. A beautiful black hair is topped by a turquoise hosta. He is also holding a delicate lute in his hand.

Gong Baojiu didn't look at her, holding the fan in his left hand and his right hand, looking at the flickering candlelight on the table in a daze.

The girl said slowly in a weak voice: "Mr. has worries in his heart, and Qing'er is willing to put on a song to relieve Mr. Without waiting for Gong Baojiu to respond, he took the initiative to sit down and flick his fingertips, and a melodious and moving melody echoed in this dull room.

Hu Man'er on the other side was lying on the couch. His eyes looked solemnly at the roof. The phrase "Doll" lingers in my ears.

"Don't you want to know the truth about the slaughter of the entire village?"

Hu Man'er secretly clenched his fists, and his nails sank deep into the flesh.

At this moment, the slightest rhythm suddenly entered the ears.

"The falling flowers are melodious,"

"The minor key is only sung for the departed. ”

"Looking out the window pear blossom tears,"

"Don't just fail to complain. ”

"Flowers want to melt with Rong Eryue,"

"Lingering back and forth to the empty building. ”

"Xiao looks at the clouds at dusk,"

"Walking is also Sijun, and sitting is also Sijun. ”
