32 Gentleness and indifference
Just when Shen Xiwu was thinking about it, Xun Qi had already knelt down, inevitably offending the place where the ancestors were sleeping, and made a big bow to the offering table, and before she suddenly looked up, her expression changed slightly when she looked at the table:
This turned out to be a formation!
If you don't have the nine buckles just now, you won't look at this offering table from an angle that is less than half of the height of ordinary people, and from this angle, the design of this offering table is extremely exquisite, and there is no sense of disobedience at the height, but it is slightly inclined from this direction, and the bottom corner corresponds to your own kneeling position, if you go directly to get the genealogy, then the starting of this formation is a killing array, and the attack range of this killing array is the distance between the offering table and the pu mat, such a short distance, extremely lethal, enough to kill a blow。
Xun Qi looked at Shen Xi beside him, and was a little glad that he didn't act rashly, and was glad that Shen Xi was suddenly in a daze.
The person who arranges the formation is similar to himself, and he does not leave a trace of retreat when killing the formation.
Xun Qi knelt on the pu mat at the moment, thinking about how to solve the formation, but he didn't notice that Shen Xi had woken up from his thoughts, and found that Xun Qi was kneeling on the pu mat, Shen Xi also knelt down, and in an instant, the vision was born!
———— "Bang!"
The two people who fell in an instant, kept sliding down in the corridor, although they didn't know where they ended up, but they could feel that this place should be very deep, the air was very stuffy, and there was a vague smell in the air, faintly, like smoke and dust, and like rotten ash, the process of falling lasted for a long time, so that they could touch the hardness of the ground, and when they got up from the ground, there was a feeling of choking on the nose and mouth, faintly sneezing, Shen Xi gently rubbed his nose, and still felt that the air was full of dust.
Suddenly, the darkness became bright, and it turned out that Xun Qi used his spiritual power to light the fire in his palm.
By the firelight, Shen Xi found that there was nothing empty here, it seemed that there was a repaired pool from a distance, boxy, Shen Xi groped in the dark, took Xun Qi's hand, and slowly walked like a boxy pool, the closer he got, the heavier the smoke and dust, here must have been burned something, there is no trace of fire around, then the ashes in this pool are burned things, Shen Xi was afraid that something was different, and carefully checked the place where he stood one meter away from the pool, and couldn't see what the ashes burned out, Xun Qi's palm was strong, trying to use the fire in his palm to burn the ashes in the pool again, at this time there was a very light rotten smell wafting in the air, I could barely see the gray-white ashes in the pool by the light of the fire.
Darkness will always make the hearts of those who are in the same darkness unconsciously want to get closer, even if you are unaware of it.
"Are you afraid?" Shen Xi felt that this question was a little silly, and embarrassed himself and said: "You won't be afraid, I asked more." ”
Xun Qi shook his head: "I'm afraid." ”
Hearing this, Shen Xi breathed a sigh of relief with some nervousness.
Xun Qi felt his nervousness and chuckled: "I just don't like the dark. ”
Shen Xi looked at the smile on her face, and his anger relaxed: "Oh, are you afraid of the dark?"
"I've seen corpses overnight. The light face was full of calmness, and he said a lot of rare words: "The first time I saw the red blood gathered into a trickle, red and black, reflecting the light under the moon, and the piles of corpses in the courtyard, in fact, it was more like falling asleep, and I saw the beginning of the sun from the darkness of the night sky." ”
Maybe it was the darkness of that night that covered her heart, whether the night was harder than the day, no one knows, good dreams are sweet, nightmares are sleepless.
This is the first time that Xun Qi has revealed the delicate posture of his daughter's family, and Shen Xi was a little surprised.
Xun Qi is the daughter of the head of the Xun family, even if she is rejected by the Xun family in order to save herself, she should be carefree when she was a child, what kind of situation will make her remember so clearly, and she is unwilling to face the night.
Shen Xi thought about it carefully and found that when she woke up several times at night, the room was bright, and she could hardly see the time in the room and outside, it turned out that she was afraid of the dark, and she always thought that she had lit the lamp because she took care of me.
"Both. ”
"Bang bang" "Bang bang", "bang bang", the sound of banging interrupted the conversation between the two.
"Brother Dusk," the one, two, three, four, who jumped off the bridge and began to sleep, had no trace of waking up, but Xiao Si woke up unexpectedly, knocking on Shen Xi's chest, Shen Xi lowered his head, and Xiao Si's eyes blinked: "I want to get close to that pool." ”
That pool, Shen Xi instinctively didn't want to approach, the smell of rancid smell in the air was vaguely coming from there, in Shen Xi's heart, he always felt that there was a secret under the ashes, but he didn't want to explore it at all.
Not at all.
But, "Okay, let's slow down, but why do you want to go over?" Shen Xi always couldn't refuse the request of someone close to him, Xun Qi thought.
"Something is calling to me out there. ”
As soon as these words came out, the footsteps of the two stopped abruptly, they were terrified, and they were cold, Xun Qi quickly protected Shen Xi behind him, Shen Xi shook his head away from Xun Qi's hand.
"Little Four, can you hear what it says?"
Xiao Si stared at the pool: "It said, come on, it's been waiting for me for a long time." ”
Shen Xi asked again: "Do you mean this?"
Xiao Si nodded, Xun Qi's palm fire was in a dim place, gray and gray, Xiao Si's eyes were even more evil, and Shen Xi was frightened, but Xun Qi suddenly seemed to be possessed by Zhu Qi: "Don't let you take this thing, it's ugly and fierce." ”
Xiao Si immediately became aggrieved, and the evil spirit in his eyes disappeared completely.
"Thank you," Xie was naturally a little overly surprised by Xiao Si's reaction, Xun Qi was afraid that Xiao Si would feel uncomfortable, so he learned Zhu Qi's tone to easily solve the siege, and Shen Xi continued to ask in his heart: "Will there be a problem?"
"I don't know. But Xun Qi's face was not so good, rarely solemn.
The two did not stop stepping forward, and when they were still half a meter away from the pool, Xiao Si said: "Brother Twilight, don't get close, I went over by myself, I feel like I'm calling... It's not good for you. ”
What does it mean to be bad for me, or is it bad for me as a person?
The dragon clan has always grown very slowly, and it is impossible to distinguish the meaning of the two at this moment, so Xiao Si can only shake his head.
Shen Xi was a little worried, and said, "Otherwise, don't go." ”
Xiao Si was very firm, and seeing that Shen Xi had the intention of blocking him, he jumped out of his arms and jumped into the pool.
"Little Four!" wanted to go to the edge of the pool, but it seemed like there was an enchantment to prevent others from approaching.
"It's okay, he has the mark of the ancestral dragon god on his body. No thing can hurt him. Xun Qi comforted, Shen Xi's brows gradually relaxed, and he forcibly pressed down the worry in his heart, his eyes were still staring at the pool of Xiaosi Yuejin and refused to relax.
"So we can only wait. ”
Shen Xi only nodded absentmindedly.
For a long time, Xiao Si in the ashes did not make a sound, making people suffer in silence, Xun Qi's voice sounded again, "The late night when I was alone, I felt that night was obviously very quiet, but the silence was terrible, the sound in the house was constant, the shouts of people, the crying of people, the sound of swords, the sound of impact, as if the silence was restored in an instant. ”
Shen Xi was gradually attracted by Xun Qi's story, and turned her head to look at Xun Qi's narrative eyes, there was no wave in her eyes, as if she was talking about someone else's business.
"The little brother who likes to play with me holds me and hides in the flower bed in the courtyard, that is the hole we dug when we were playing, I dig an inch, he digs two inches, I throw the mud a meter away, he must be a little far away from me, and then he died, I died in his arms, his hand tightly covered my mouth, until a certain moment when he died for a long time, I could not break it. ”
Xun Qi smiled, the smile was light, and he pulled Shen Xi to sit down.
didn't lay a brocade handkerchief, didn't dust off, sat down straight, legs and feet crossed casually, not at all like her usual dogma.
Shen Xi asked a little unbearably, "And then?"
There was light in Shen Xi's eyes, and he probed Xun Qi's eyes, illuminating her courage to speak: "Then, the person who was once afraid that I would be frightened by the shadows was lying on the road I passed every day, with unwillingness engraved on his face, and the person who used to watch me play gently, stood straight in front of the door, I thought I was still alive, and when I approached, he had long lost his breath." ”
Shen Xi suddenly felt that she was very cruel, maybe this was the past that Xun Qi was unwilling to talk about, but she was torn apart little by little, forcing her to look directly again.
"But you know what? There was no sound in the evening in the street outside the door, no sound of birds and insects, only the rustling of the shadows of the trees, which I felt terrible in retrospect for many years. Xun Qi's voice was full of mockery, to himself, or to that reality.
If the people on the street are not sheltered, then they may end up in the same fate as the people in this house.
"I'm sorry, but it's not very pleasant. "And you will say it yourself to comfort me and attract my attention.
Shen Xi really wanted to slap himself, how delicate you are, let people accommodate you like this again and again.
Suddenly, Xun Qi was silent for a long time, patted Shen Xi's back a little awkwardly, and said, "I'm very good at telling stories, am I?"
Such an empty place, coupled with Xun Qi's gentle but cold voice, is like a flowing soul floating on the Lechuan River, really, a little scary.
Shen Xi thought, I'm still used to her indifference.
