Volume 1 First Entry into the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 24 Su Xiaoxiao, a chance encounter in the snow
The wind and dust are exhausted, and I am tired of combing my hair day and night. Things are people, and they don't have to do anything, and tears flow first. It is said that Sungai spring is still good, and it is also planned to go on a light boat. I am only afraid of the Shuangxi boat, which cannot be carried, and there are many worries......
When the night passed, the heavy snow stopped at the beginning, and the town of Breaking Wind:
When, when...... The night watchman struck three bangs and walked slowly from the streets at the east end of the town, closing his eyes and yawning as he went, and exhaling a puff of white air from his mouth and nose. Beneath your feet, the snow was nearly a foot thick and had reached your ankles, and with each step, you heard a creaking sound from the snow beneath your feet.
This man was about forty years old, with a thin face, a bulging forehead, and a burly figure, but he was still a little thin compared to the natives of the north, and it seemed that his ancestral home was not from here.
At this time, the husband stopped, as if some sleepiness had struck, so he took a deep breath, and the cold breath refreshed his lungs, and suddenly he was much more energetic;
Suddenly, a pair of huge wings streaked across the night sky, and the bright moonlight was violently obscured for a moment, and then re-revealed. He rubbed his eyes and looked at the night sky, and with a snort, another pair of huge wings slashed above his head. The husband opened his mouth and pointed to the night sky, and stayed there for a moment.
He thought to himself, "What kind of bird is this, I've lived for decades, I've never seen such a big bird, and although I can't see its head, this pair of wings looks like half a house's size, and if I catch it, I guess I can't stew it in a pot......
Puff~
The wings swept quickly behind him, and the man's head rolled down into the snow beneath his feet, and several columns of blood spurted out of the arteries in his neck, and the blood instantly stained the snow red, and the headless corpse fell to the ground with a thud. It's a pity that this husband didn't understand what kind of bird was flying in the sky until he died.
At this time, a black cloud floated from the night sky in the south, and this black cloud rolled and surged towards the northern night sky; in the black cloud, there were hundreds of strange demons with human heads and bird bodies; among them, several strange demons stayed in the sky above Breaking Wind Town, and the other demons continued to fly north.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and several houses at the east end of the town collapsed, and several red flames erupted from the night sky like pillars of fire into the town, and the flames set several houses on fire in an instant.
Whoop ~ Woo Woo ~ Woo Woo ~ Woo Woo ~
Over the town, several strange cries of birds and beasts resounded across the land, and the sound was very sharp and piercing.
After the strange scream, the people in the town woke up from their dreams and asked their wives and children beside them with a gloomy face: "Do you hear it, what's the strange scream? Is it a dream? No, I also heard it, something is screaming in the sky." A moment later, the windows of every house in the city were lit up with dim lights, and many people pushed open the windows to look out, and for a moment, the town suddenly became lively.
As the name suggests, the House is one of the most famous brothels in the town, and its location is right in the hustle and bustle of the town. Downstairs is a street that runs from east to west, which is full of people on weekdays, and is favored by some romantic people, and occasionally some literati and sorcerers come to visit, adding a bit of extravagance to this ancient town.
Upstairs in the drunken flower building, in a room facing the street, a candle was lit in the room, and a woman in white had just put on her coat, she sat up from the head of the bed, and then tightened the leather belt around her waist with her hand, and raised her jade fingers to rub her sleepy eyes, and listened attentively to the movement outside;
She put on a red cotton cloak, and walked to the window, and when she opened the window, a cold air rushed into her face, and the cold air entered her lungs, choking the woman to cough a few times on her chest, and then looked out of the window; at this time, the streets of the town were empty, but many of the gates were lit up, and she looked to the east and saw that the light of the fire had already reflected half of the night sky. Who started such a fire, she thought.
Suddenly, the woman in white looked fwilded, and a few words sounded in her heart: Ten winters and moons, heavy snow closed the door. It's ugly, and there is no one in the middle of the night. The fire in the east rises, and the demons kill the gods. Three miles to the west, the road meets nobles...... Could it be that the beggar was talking about tonight? The hour should be around ugly hour, heavy snow, no one in the middle of the night, and a fire......
Suddenly, a huge wing swirled down from the night sky and swooped towards the woman who had opened the window. In the window, the woman saw a big black bird flying towards her, this bird ...... It's not just surprisingly big, but it'...... It had a hideous-looking human head, what was it? The woman paused, and suddenly she closed the window, turned around and ran into the house.
Bang~
The demon spread its wings and crashed straight into the three-story wooden building, and then passed through the building; with a loud bang, the wooden building was hit and collapsed, and the strange demon circled several times in the sky, and ran away to other houses with a strange scream.
At this time, looking down from the heights, the whole town has fallen into chaos, in the darkness, whether it is the medicine shop on the street, the porridge shop, or the large number of houses behind the town, all the houses are collapsed, everywhere is the cry of adults and children, everywhere is the roaring fire. For a time, this town, which has nearly 1,000 households, seems to have turned from the world to hell, and many people die in their sleep before they know what happened.
At this time, the overturned oil lamp ignited the debris in the ruins, and the flames burned from it instantly, and a burst of smoke rose up, adding another tragic scene to the chaos of the night.
Bang~
In the ruins, a wooden board was lifted, and from under the wooden plank came a pair of slender jade hands, which were cut by the debris and cut several wounds, and blood ran down the fingers on the board. Fortunately, this green building is a wooden structure, which left a lot of gaps at the moment of collapse, so that the woman would not die here.
After several times she had crawled out of the ruins, and the woman's forehead had been cut by something, and her body was covered with some debris, and the cotton cloak she had just put on had fallen somewhere, and at this time, her mind echoed what the old beggar had said to her, and she ran westward without looking back.
Woohoo~Woooo~
In the night sky, a demon spotted a woman in white fleeing to the west, and it caught the woman with a swoop. Hearing this strange cry, the woman knew that it was a strange bird that had discovered her, and she didn't dare to look back and ran forward desperately, but how could she, a woman in a green building, outrun the winged demon?
The wind was loud, and the demon rushed behind the woman in the blink of an eye, and it reached out its claws to grab the woman's shoulders, it wanted to catch the woman in the sky, and then throw her down from the sky and break her bones.
The woman knew that she could not escape, so she simply closed her eyes and resigned herself to fate.
Suddenly, the figure in the slanted thorn flashed, and the woman in white in front of her disappeared from under the demon claws. The demon's claws fluttered into the air, and with a spread of its wings, it flew high into the air, looking left and right for the woman's traces.
At this time, the woman's ears were full of wind:
When she opened her eyes, a handsome descendant hugged her tightly in her arms.
The corners of his mouth turned up, and he smiled lewdly: "Don't be afraid, your brother Tang and I are here......"
