Chapter 2: Leaving (2)
After a long time, Ah Xiao saw that he didn't react, so she patiently asked again: "Take me to the Purple Star Sect, and I'll help you with this." If in the past, she never repeated what she had said, but now, her temperament has been softened a lot.
Ye Ying came back to her senses, seeing that she still had a cold and serious face, the corners of her mouth were slowly hooked, revealing two shallow dimples: "You know everything about Bai Yichen?"
"I have a way to save him, as long as you help me enter the Purple Star Sect. Ah Xiao said firmly: "I will be careful, even if I am discovered, I will never drag you down." ”
Ye Ying didn't care if he would be dragged down, he made sure again, "I can take you there, but you also have to promise, after the matter is completed, you will definitely come back to help me." ”
"I never break my word. ”
"Also, protect yourself, if you die, there will be no one to help me. ”
Ah Xiao pursed her lips and smiled lightly, that smile was like a rare warm sun in winter, and the fierceness in her eyes also weakened a little, and her glazed purple eyes seemed to flow like a galaxy, which was moving.
She could hear the concern in his words, Ye Ying has always been a person who can't express emotions, any nice words coming out of his mouth will always make people feel cold, she understands this, so she can talk to him so much here.
Ye Ying put on a mask and picked up the sword on the table: "Three days later, I will come here to find you and take you to the Purple Star Sect." After he finished speaking, he walked to the door, and just as he stretched out his hand to open the door, Ah Xiao suddenly stopped him.
"You haven't said who you're going to turn into a puppet. ”
Ye Ying's eyes flashed, his brows were furrowed, the affection in his eyes was very complicated, anger, longing, and hatred blended with each other, and soon turned away, and returned to a calm stagnant water.
He replied in a deep voice, "Lan'er." ”
When the words landed, Ye Ying opened the door and went out, leaving without looking back.
Ah Xiao didn't have much impression of Lan'er, and only a pale face faintly appeared in her mind, didn't she die a long time ago......? No, it should be six years, and Ye Ying hasn't buried her yet!
It was too boring to stay in the inn, Ah Xiao wore a hat and went out, the street was very lively, she walked for a while, and came to a tea stall on the side of the road to sit down.
The boss came over with a smile on his face, and when he saw that she was dressed in black and wearing a hat, she didn't look like a good person, and her heart couldn't help but tremble.
"Childe, what do you want to drink?"
Childe, Ah Xiao's dress really doesn't look like a woman, and the boss is understandably wrong, she didn't care, and said in a low voice: "A pot of osmanthus tea, a plate of lotus cake." ”
"Yes, wait a minute. The boss listened to her gentle words, the timidity in his eyes slowly receded, and he turned away with a smiling face, and after a while brought tea and pastries.
There were a lot of people sitting on the tea stall who stopped to rest, and next to Ah Xiao sat a few young men in white clothes, she glanced sideways, and the white coats of these people were embroidered with a blooming green tan, which was elegant and elegant.
A disciple of the Nine Xuanzong?
They were discussing in a low voice the strange things that had happened in Ceyang in recent days, and Ah Xiao had always heard well, even if their voices were small, she could hear them clearly.
"I'll go to the Shen Mansion to take a look in a while, and I heard that there was another accident last night. ”
"Tell me what? ”
"Since the Shen Mansion was burned, didn't the neighbors next door to the Shen family always say that they would hear strange noises coming from the house at night? Last night, there was a curious person who was not afraid of death when he went in, who knew that when the old man carrying water went to bring water to his house this morning, he saw that the man's wife and old lady were both bitten to death, and he was holding the tree in the yard and gnawing on the bark to eat, which frightened the old man who carried water. ”
"Isn't this similar to the last time, when the four members of the Chengnan Wang family slashed people on the street with knives? Not only did we not find any clues, but even the people from the Purple Star Sect and the Nanyue Pavilion didn't find anything, and they didn't even see the shadow of the monster, so it was all in vain. ”
"yes, maybe it's the evil spirit?"
"Even so, but the other two have gone, if we don't go, we will definitely be punished by the elders, let's go and see, I can't really find something, if we can't find it, then it can only be said that it is evil." ”
"However, this time it's really strange, it's been quiet for the past four years, how can it suddenly be like this in the last month, and the people in Lingxiao Valley haven't made any move...... Eh, you say, could it be that the demon didn't die and came back to take revenge?"
Ah Xiao drank tea, and the devil in their mouths was not her, but these two words were like sharp needles, poking deep into her heart.
The hand hidden in the sleeve was clenched, the nails were sunk deep into the flesh, but there was no blood flowing out for a long time, her brows were furrowed, if it were not for the hat, the red purple eyes would have frightened people terribly.
"Don't talk nonsense, his soul has been scattered by the punishment of heaven, and even his body has turned into smoke and dust and disappeared, his bones and ashes, how can he still be alive. ”
"I think what he said makes sense, do you remember, at the beginning, the female disciple of the Purple Star Sect who fell into the reincarnation array with his corpse didn't know if she was dead or not, they had such a good relationship, what kind of evil sect would they use to help him reshape the demon body?"
"Reshape the demon body? How is it possible, the demon head's soul is gone, gone, even if she restores the demon body, what if she can't gather three souls and seven spirits, and it is also a dead corpse, so don't worry about it. ”
"However, if that female disciple really didn't die, would this incident have anything to do with her, you think, she has such a good relationship with His Royal Highness the Demon, maybe she can't avenge him. ”
"Eh, then you really underestimate this reincarnation array, the people who enter the reincarnation array, for thousands of years, no one can come out, not be trapped to death, and will be sucked out of the aura in the formation and die, even if she comes out, it is impossible to escape the punishment of heavenly punishment. ”
"You forget, she is a heavenly evil body, and she has a strong evil qi in her body...... Also, three days ago, the Great Fire in the Evil Valley, although it was a heavenly fire, but all those who cultivate immortals know that it is a heavenly punishment, maybe she really came out of the array?"
A white-clothed disciple looked up and saw that the black-clothed man sitting at the next table was motionless, and his hand holding the teacup stopped halfway up, as if he was eavesdropping, and hurriedly signaled his companion to be quiet, and turned his head to look at the person behind him.
Ah Xiao felt the scrutinizing gaze from the table next to her, glanced at it with slanted eyes, calmly put down the teacup, took out a silver ingot from her arms and put it on the table, and got up to leave.
When the white-clothed disciples saw her leaving, they turned around and continued their speculation, only to notice that Ah Xiao's whispered: "On this hot day, wearing black and hats, could he be from Lingxiao Valley?"
"Ling Xiaogu, could it be that they did this?"
"I don't think so, you think, this time the three major immortal cultivation sects have sent disciples down the mountain, and Ceyang has gathered many disciples of the immortal cultivation family, if it is really Ling Xiaogu's doing, they should not come at this time, it is easy to arouse suspicion. ”
"That's what I said, come on, come on, drink tea, go to Shen Mansion to check it out later, and then go back. ”
Ah Xiao walked a few steps, hiding behind a pillar that the white-clothed disciples couldn't see, and she had already collected all the words they had just said, Ling Xiaogu?
"Help!"
"Murder!"
Suddenly, there were crowds of screams in front of her, and Ah Xiao just wanted to go and see what was going on, but she stopped after taking two steps forward, if it was right, she smelled the demonic aura.
The screams got closer and closer, and a group of people ran out of the alley around the corner in a panic, all of them looked panicked and hurried, and looked into the alley as they ran, as if something was chasing behind.
The vendors setting up stalls on the street didn't know what was going on, they only knew that they couldn't stay here, and ran away with the crowd, Ah Xiao wanted to retreat to the side, but before she could move, the crowd ran past her and trapped her in the middle.
In the hustle and bustle, Ah Xiao heard the strange sound of 'click', accompanied by the harsh sound of the collision of sharp weapons, she leaned against the pillar behind her, standing on tiptoe to look.
Several people who ran at the back of the crowd were covered in blood and had many knives cut on their bodies, but none of them were fatal, and they bled as they ran, bleeding all the way.
The crowd ran away, and Ah Xiao's surroundings were able to slowly quiet down, a gust of wind came from the front, accompanied by a strong smell of blood, Ah Xiao raised her head and looked at the person standing face to face with her not far in front of her, perhaps, at this moment, it can't be said that he is a human, it should be said that he is a monster covered with black wolf hair.
The monster was dressed in white plain clothes, his clothes were tattered, stained with dust and blood, his hair was messy, and the wind blew more and more chaotically, and he held two kitchen knives in his two dry hands, and the blood on the surface of the knives was still dripping, merging with the blood pool on the ground, accompanied by the miserable wind, all of which seemed a little more terrifying and weird.
