Chapter 22: The Man in Black Returns

At dusk, Qu Yanluo and Aunt Lin were returning from selling fish from the city market. They went home.

Qu Yanluo entered the kitchen and fried a pot of paste cabbage. Smelling the wonderful mush, she pinched her nose with some disgust.

I can't help but think of the past, in the past five lifetimes, Qu Yanluo's luck has been really good, and the family conditions for reincarnation in each life are not bad.

Every life's father and mother did not force her to learn to cook. This has also led to her current lack of cooking.

Speaking of which, Xu Fan was the first person to eat the food she made herself, but she didn't expect Xu Fan to be a person who is not picky.

Thinking of this, Qu Yanluo couldn't help but feel a little funny.

suddenly realized that Xu Fan hadn't gone home yet!

She suddenly felt a little inexplicably worried, and said to herself, "It's impossible for this annoying spirit to miss the meal! ”

After waiting for a while, the food was already cold, so she had to take the wooden sword and go to Aunt Lin's house first to see if Xu Fan was going to eat delicious again.

found that she was not at Mrs. Lin's house, so she had to prepare to go to Meishan to look for it, and Mrs. Lin also followed.

The two went up to Meishan and saw the back basket left by Xu Fan in the woods, and they were even more worried, so they split up and went to find someone with lanterns.

Qu Yanluo walked through the woods, constantly shouting: "Xu Fan!" and her voice was hoarse.

She also blamed herself a little in her heart, there were no wild vegetables in the winter, and she had to let him go up the mountain to dig vegetables.

It was also dark, and it was winter again, and the cold wind was biting, and the plum trees on the mountain had some small buds, but most of them had not yet bloomed, and they looked like dead trees in the night. The atmosphere is really a bit bleak and terrifying!

Qu Yanluo wiped the sweat on her head, worried and scared in her heart. One hand holds a lantern, and the other hand clutches the wooden sword at his waist.

"Click", she suddenly heard the sound of dead leaves being trampled behind her.

"Who?" hurriedly turned around and saw that there was nothing but countless plum branches.

She was a little scared and took out the wooden sword from her waist, held it in her hand, and slowly retreated, breaking out in a cold sweat of fright.

Suddenly, a hand slammed on the back of her neck. Qu Yanluo suddenly felt dizzy, and the lantern and wooden sword in his hand fell to the ground, and he also fell to the ground.

In the candlelight, she saw her wooden sword flying in the air and fighting a man in black, who was struck to the ground by the man in black with a spell, motionless.

The strange thing is that the man in black didn't want to kill Qu Yanluo, but walked straight to the wooden sword, squatted down to get the wooden sword.

As soon as he got the wooden sword, his hand began to tremble, as if it hurt!

But his hand was shaking with pain, and blood flowed, and the man in black had no choice but to shake off the wooden sword, cover the bleeding hand, and flee.

At this time, Qu Yanluo also lost consciousness and really fainted.

When she woke up, she slept in a small bed at home. She was a little suspicious in her heart, and said to herself, "Was last night a dream?"

She touched the back of her neck, "tsk", there was still some pain, it was indeed not a dream.

She dressed, tied her hair, and habitually picked up a wooden sword and pinned it to her waist. Then, when I went to Xu Fan's room, there was still no one, and Xu Fan did not come back.

Qu Yanluo's voice was a little hoarse: "Where did this kid go?" As she spoke, she patted her head and said, "I'm worried about what he's doing, I'm really worrying, he has the Heavenly Emperor's divine clothes, and it is impossible for anyone to hurt him!"

Suddenly, the man in black last night, on the way to Van Gogh before, the man in black never came to look for her once, and gradually forgot about it.

I didn't expect it to appear again last night, which couldn't help but make Qu Yanluo a little afraid.

She touched the wooden sword on her waist, and after a closer look, the wooden sword was clean and clean, and there was no blood at all.

"It's strange, did I see it wrong? I obviously saw that person bleeding!" Qu Yanluo scratched her head in confusion.

went out to Mrs. Lin's house again, thinking that Mrs. Lin must have sent her back.

As soon as I walked to the door, I saw that the door of Aunt Lin's house was locked, and my heart suddenly became worried.

Qu Yanluo thought to herself: "It's over, it's over, it's early in the morning, Xu Fan hasn't found it yet, where did this Aunt Lin go again? Didn't she come back last night? Impossible!"

She anxiously knocked on the door of the fat sister's house next door.

The one-piece chubby woman opened the door and asked, "Girl Yanluo, what's wrong?"

Qu Yanluo asked anxiously: "Fat sister, did Aunt Lin come back last night? This early in the morning, she locked the door, where did she go?"

"Oh, I remember, she came to tell me early in the morning that she was sick and needed her to take care of her for a while. ”

When Qu Yanluo heard this, she was a little disappointed, and asked the fat sister: "Fat sister, do you know where Aunt Lin's distant relatives' house is?"

The fat sister shook her head and said with a blank face: "Yo! ”

"Okay, thank you, fat sister!" Qu Yanluo thanked and walked away.

Qu Yanluo's heart was in turmoil, and she felt that a lot of things had happened overnight, which overwhelmed her.

Although he has been persuading himself, Xu Fan is unlikely to be hurt by others, but he is still worried in his heart. went up to Meishan alone.

During the day, this plum mountain is a different scenery, and the red buds of the plum trees all over the mountain are very beautiful.

Soon, she found the top of the mountain, and thought, "Why don't you go and ask the Fusheng Immortals?" But I'm not ready to apprentice, so let's not mention the apprenticeship first!"

After struggling for a long time, she still walked into the broken Taoist temple and entered the dilapidated house with the door open.

Looking at the statue of Taishang Laojun in the room, he said strangely: "How is this statue of Taishang Laojun a little different from other places?"

After looking at it for a while, she wanted to get down to business, and she stood in front of the side door next to the idol, and saw the blood-red phoenix lock again.

This time she still couldn't open the lock, so she had to bang on the door, but she couldn't open it.

After a while, just as she stopped to rest, the door opened on its own. There was also the sound of conversation inside.

"Get me out!

"Impossible, what do you say, let her in, you just say it!"

Qu Yanluo hurriedly walked in and saw the Fusheng Immortal carrying Xu Fan's back collar, and Xu Fan was scolding.

Seeing Qu Yanluo coming in, Xu Fan ran to her with a smile, but was pulled back by the Fusheng Immortal.

Xu Fan said helplessly: "Radish head, you save me quickly, this old man has to make me his apprentice!"

Qu Yanluo looked dazed and asked, "Is this ...... What's going on. ”

The Fusheng Immortal touched his beard and said with a smile: "Hehe, this immortal is surprised to see Xu Fangongzi's bones, if you don't come to cultivate, it's really a waste of genius." Therefore, Ben Xian reluctantly accepted him as an apprentice. ”

"Phew! It's still difficult, you are obviously robbing your apprentice! Who do I worship as a teacher, and I don't want to worship a domineering person like you as a teacher!" Xu Fan scolded and scolded.

Suddenly, Qu Yanluo knelt on the ground and bowed his head and said, "Fusheng Immortal, please take Qu Yanluo as an apprentice!"

Xu Fan and Fusheng Immortal both widened their eyes, looked at Qu Yanluo, and said in unison, "What?!"
