Yun family compound, in the study.

Yunqiao and Xu Mingyue, the elder of the Emei faction, were sitting face to face, talking with their hands, and Xu Mingyue said after dropping a son: "Miss Ruoyi is going out again?"

Yunqiao said: "Well, I said that I went with my friends to see off Du Wenxing, to say that Du Wenxing's child is also extraordinary, I heard that he was born an orphan, and he only studied in the academy for a month, and he has the current level of poetry by self-study, and he is indeed a reading seed, but it is a pity that he was delayed." ”

"I heard that the old man of the Zheng family is very optimistic about this son, and even has the idea of recruiting him as a son-in-law?"

"Hehe, Zheng Huan, that old boy seems to have great confidence in this Du Wenxing, and thinks that it is not too late for him to read and learn the scriptures now. I don't know what he thinks? These things still have to be laid a foundation from an early age, and if we catch up now, it will be difficult to catch up with those peers who have been studying since childhood. ”

"Oh, so Brother Yun is not very optimistic about the future of this Du Wenxing, then why did he work with the Zheng family master to help him get out of Qingcheng?"

"Hehe, I'm not optimistic, but Lao Zheng is optimistic, he opened his mouth, how can I not help. Besides, this Du Wenxing saved my family Ruoyi twice, this life-saving grace still has to be repaid, don't send money to the other party, a Qiuyue knife can't repay this kindness, so this favor should be even more helped. ”

Is it just to repay the favor?

Xu Mingyue hesitated suddenly, it seems that Yun Ruoyi's abnormal feelings for Du Wenxing should not be in a hurry to tell this person.

Because Du Wenxing helped when Emei retrieved the "Spirit Fox Moon Worship Method" before, Xu Mingyue had a good impression of Du Wenxing, but she didn't want to spoil this kid's good deeds.

If those two juniors can really succeed, it will be of great benefit to Du Wenxing, a helpless orphan.

"There is still no news of Lu Qian's thief recently?" Yun Qiao's tone was a little worried, being worried about a congenital peak master, how could he be steadfast in his heart.

Xu Mingyue shook her head and said a little strangely: "It's also strange, doesn't this person even want a son?"

Yunqiao: "Could it be that he saw through our arrangement near the prison?"

Xu Mingyue groaned: "It is very possible, this person can practice martial arts to this point, obviously his wisdom and ambition are not bad, I am afraid that he is hiding somewhere and waiting for an opportunity." ”

"This Lu Qian must not be in the city of Chengdu, otherwise it is impossible to find no traces. Yunqiao said categorically.

It's not that he is arrogant, but with the power of the Yun family, as long as he puts down a word, the local snakes in Chengdu Mansion will all bow down and obey orders, and these local snakes all over the city will not find Lu Qian a single outsider, it is obviously impossible.

"By the way, if you go out of the city this time, is it safely arranged?" Yunqiao asked again.

"Don't worry, it's all arranged, if Lu Qian dares to appear, he will be let come and go. Xu Mingyue is very confident, no matter how strong Lu Qian is, he is just one person.

"Sir, Miss is back. An old butler walked into the study and said.

"Oh, it seems that Lu Qian is still very cautious. Yunqiao put down the chess pieces, shook his head and said, "No, I'll go and see Ruoyi." ”

After saying that, he stood up and walked out with a stagger.

Xu Mingyue pinched a chess piece and was stunned, I just got ready to kill you a big dragon!

......

Du Wenxing left Chengdu Mansion with a sad mood.

Alas, I don't know when I will be able to come back again?!

Lu Yi slapped him, "Boy, don't look at it, everyone is gone." ”

"Uncle Shi, I'm not-" Du Wenxing only felt speechless, he really hadn't thought about what to do with Yun Ruoyi!

Because they had to take the convoy with them, Du Wenxing and Lu Yi, who were riding horses, did not go very fast.

In the evening, they arrived at the small town of Tai'an, which was eighty miles away from Chengdu Mansion, and Lu Yi decided to rest and stay in the town for one night before leaving.

The convoy drove into a restaurant, which was also the only one in Tai'an Town where you could stay.

The name of the restaurant is Tai'an Restaurant.

The convoy was set up in the backyard of the restaurant, leaving a few disciples to guard, and the others followed Lu Yi to the lobby of the restaurant to prepare for a meal.

"Have you heard, the town has been haunted lately?"

As soon as the eight people in Qingcheng sat down, they heard someone at the next table talking about the haunting in the town, and their attention was immediately attracted to it.

"What kind of haunting, it must have been done by thieves!" one retorted.

"It can't be a thief, have you ever seen a thief kill someone and eat people's hearts and livers?"

"Hmph, what eats people's hearts and livers must be spread by falsehood. The man still didn't believe it.

A group of Qingcheng sect disciples looked at each other when they heard this, the town is haunted?

Are these people joking?

Another person at the table said: "I think it's also fake, where are there ghosts in this world, I think someone is pretending to be a ghost." ”

The three of them looked dressed as scholars, and they had said that the haunted man was older, but after he heard the words of the two companions, he disagreed: "I have a cousin who works as a catcher in the yamen, and he saw this with his own eyes, and the deceased is Huang Laodao, who lives in the east of the town." At that time, the autopsy confirmed that Huang Laodao's heart and liver were eaten, because there were clear tooth marks on the wounds on his chest and the remaining viscera. If it was really done by people, even those murderers who gathered in the mountains and forests and had the reputation of eating people would not directly gnaw at the corpse with their teeth. ”

Hiss——!

The other two gasped when they heard this, "What you said is true?"

"There is no lie. ”

"Could it be a beast?"

"Impossible, that old man who has been doing it for decades, how can he not even distinguish between the teeth of a man and a beast, that is a human tooth mark. ”

"Is it really a ghost? But isn't Huang Laodao a Taoist, how could he provoke a ghost?"

"That's not right, it's because he's a Taoist priest that he provokes ghosts!"

"It's reasonable, if you want me to say, it is very likely that this Wang Taoist priest angered a certain ghost when he was doing things in a certain house, and was found to take revenge. ”

"I'm afraid that's not the reason. The older scholar said, "As far as I know, before the Zodiac priest, there was another family in the town that was harmed by this ghost, and that was the Hu family who had just migrated over last year. It's just that because the Hu family is an outsider, they have no relatives in the town, and all three members of the family are dead, plus the government deliberately conceals it, so no one knows. According to my cousin, the Hu family died even worse, not only was their heart and liver eaten, but even the blood on their bodies was sucked dry. ”

Hearing this, Du Wenxing was stunned, sucking blood?

He thought of the Blood Bat Demon.

Of course, the Blood Bat Demon has been killed by him, but could it be Brother Wei?

But then Du Wenxing denied this speculation, Brother Wei had been lifted from the hidden danger of his body, and he had already returned to Nanyang.

Besides, the Blood Bat Demon's technique is only to suck human blood, not to eat human internal organs.

"What, the Hu family was also victimized by ghosts, didn't it mean that their family moved away!" exclaimed a young scholar.

The other slapped the table, "This must be an excuse from the government, this family has only moved here for less than a year, and it is impossible to move out so quickly." ”

The more the people in the Qingcheng faction heard this, the more they frowned, and Du Wenxing couldn't help but ask Lu Yi, "Uncle Shi, are we going to interfere?"

Lu Yi thought for a while and said, "I'll ask about the situation in the evening before making a decision." ”
