Chapter Seventy-Three: Monster Hunting
The mayor of the town thought about it for a while, and said: "A few days ago, I was still in Qingyan City, and after hearing that we had demons here, I should take the matter of collecting demons, but I haven't heard from them in the past few days. ”
Speaking of this, the mayor shook his head, sighed, and said, "I don't know if anything happened, but you have to be careful when you kill the demon alone, maybe your life is in danger, you have to think about it." ”
If it was before, he might have hesitated, but now that he knows that the people of the same door are also here, and they are looking for the traces of the monster, he will naturally not give up.
As for what happened, although I was a little worried, I was still a lot relieved when I thought of the two seniors of Hanruo Temple.
Thinking of this, he immediately decided to find this monster, if he met the same person because of this, wouldn't it be wonderful?
Lin Qiuzhi smiled slightly, arched his hand, and said, "Thank you, old man, I will take the matter of that monster to heart and do my best to get rid of that monster." ”
The mayor immediately laughed and said, "Then please, the strong man is tired from the journey, why don't you rest in the cold house for one night first, and then make plans tomorrow." ”
Lin Qiuzhi thought about it and agreed.
The night is dark.
In Qingyan City, the houses were closed, and no dog barking could be heard on the empty street.
There was only one person, holding a gong in one hand and a gong in the other, walking in this dark night.
"Knock! knock!"
"In the middle of the night, watch out for the candle~"
"Knock! knock!"
"Three watches... In the middle of the night, be careful... Fire Candle~"
"Three... More... In the middle of the night, be careful... Fire... Candle. ”
————
Lin Qiuzhi woke up from the bed suddenly, so full of anger at first, then stammering, and finally, there was even a hoarse sound like being cut by a saw, in this late night, it was really terrifying, making people's hair stand on end!
The most terrifying thing is that there is not a trace of panic in the voice of the watchman!
Lin Qiuzhi hurriedly took the flame next to the bed and walked towards the outside of the room, knowing that something was wrong without thinking about it!
As soon as I walked out of the room, I saw that the mayor's room was still pitch black.
Lin Qiuzhi couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and had to admire that the mayor of the town really slept deep enough.
However, now was not the time to pay attention to these, Lin Qiuzhi hurriedly walked out of the mayor's house.
At this time, it was late at night, and the entire Qingyan City was shrouded in darkness.
Lin Qiuzhi galloped on this empty street, and after the watchman made a few sounds, he never made a sound, which made him easy to find.
Turning a few corners, skimming a few streets, there was a hint of blood on the tip of my nose.
Lin Qiuzhi's brows furrowed, and he followed the smell of blood, which gradually became thicker.
Suddenly, his steps paused, and looking at the scene in front of him, a feeling of nausea and vomiting rose from his five internal organs.
I saw a blood-red corpse lying on the empty street, the whole human skin had long been gone, the lines on the flesh and blood were clearly visible, and the broken little skin was towering on the corpse, dripping scarlet blood, staining an ancient road red.
Lin Qiuzhi took several deep breaths before suppressing the feeling of wanting to vomit in this vice.
Rao is that he has been practicing for so long, and he has never seen such a cruel act, and he actually peeled off the entire human skin, this monster is really a loss of conscience!
Lin Qiuzhi frowned and slowly walked to the corpse.
This corpse has long been unrecognizable, and if he hadn't seen the gong and the gong used to beat the watch, who would have recognized this person as the one who beat the watch? I'm afraid that even his closest people would not be able to recognize it.
Lin Qiuzhi lowered his body and inspected carefully, but he still found nothing, and when he looked around, there was only the closed house and the deep dark night.
Just when he was secretly distressed, a black shadow suddenly flashed in the afterglow, which flashed in an instant in this night, and disappeared in this darkness.
Lin Qiu was startled, and hurriedly raised his long sword and chased in the direction where the black shadow disappeared.
Under the starlight, two slender shadows crossed the cold door of the ancient house.
In a moment, he saw the black shadow disappear into the street, Lin Qiuzhi frowned slightly, and slowly walked in the street.
When he hesitated, a breeze in his ears fluctuated, and the sound of the wisps of the piano sounded leisurely, soothing like flowing water, crisp like a pearl falling on a jade plate, flowing in this silent night.
Lin Qiuzhi couldn't help but look back, but saw the door of a mansion wide open.
He followed the sound of the piano and stepped through the door.
The evening breeze is gentle, and the breeze blows the wind chimes on the corridor, which is beautiful and beautiful, and every sound can give comfort to people's souls.
Walking through this corridor, listening to the euphemistic and melodious sound of the piano, a kind of emotional rhyme is resonant.
There were slight ripples in his heart, and for a while, he was fascinated by it.
Before I knew it, I came to a courtyard.
A sea of flowers, a weeping willow, and a touch of shadow playing the guqin.
Weeping willows to the evening with the moonlight.
In the sound of the piano, there is a little sadness.
The garden is full of petals.
The cold wind rises, rippling.
The sound of the piano is full of sorrow.
The night is long, and the moon is leisurely.
Singing lovesickness and parting.
The afterglow is long, and it hurts alone.
。。。
The moonlight is a sea of flowers, the mist is light, when is it already dazzling?
The woman sighed and slowly stood up, the moonlight sprinkled on her snow-white dress, with a hint of unearthly feeling, like Chang'e in the moon, a fairy in the world.
Lin Qiuzhi came to his senses, looked at the beautiful woman this morning, and said, "Miss, I'm sorry, I, I didn't mean to break in, really, it's really this, this piano sound is so good." ”
The woman looked at him deeply and said in a low voice: "Childe, it's okay, the little woman's name is Bai Moli, if Childe doesn't mind, just call me Mo Li." ”
Don't leave, don't leave...
For some reason, when he heard this name, he was deeply touched in his heart.
Bai Moli looked at his appearance, didn't speak for a long time, his eyes gradually dimmed, and he lowered his head slightly.
"White heads are inseparable. ”
After a burst of emotion, suddenly, this sentence appeared in my mind, and I blurted it out without thinking about it.
Bai Moli's eyes lit up, raised his head, and looked straight at him.
Lin Qiuzhi regretted it as soon as he said this, and hurriedly explained: "Mo Li girl, I, I didn't mean that. I, I mean, your name is so nice, it makes me feel like I'm inseparable. ”
Bai Moli smiled and said, "I know what Gongzi means." ”
Lin Qiuzhi was stunned for a moment, her smile was so beautiful and elegant, it made the world bleak.
Bai Moli seemed to think of something, patted his head lightly, looked annoyed, and said, "Son, don't stand, or I'll take you to the gazebo in the backyard to sit down." ”
Lin Qiuzhi came to his senses and saw that she had slowly walked forward, so he followed.
Walking through this sea of flowers, the cobblestone road under your feet becomes wider and wider.
After a while, you will see a lotus pond with a pavilion standing above it.
Lin Qiuzhi followed Bai Moli's footsteps and slowly walked into the pavilion.
After taking a seat, Bai Moli poured a cup of tea with him, and then sat opposite him.
Lin Qiuzhi took a sip of tea gently, only to feel that his mouth was fragrant, and the aftertaste was endless, it was really good tea!
Bai Moli looked at him and said with a smile: "Childe, I don't know what to call it?"
Lin Qiuzhi arched his hand and said, "Bai Moli girl, her name is Lin Qiuzhi." ”
"Lin Qiuzhi... Bai Moli read a few words in his heart, then looked at him and said with a smile: "Young Master Lin, why are you still wandering outside if you don't sleep in the middle of the night." ”
Lin Qiuzhi was mentioned by this, and suddenly thought that he was here to catch demons, looking at this huge house, she was the only one, and he couldn't help but worry about her.
"Miss Moli, don't you know that there are monsters in this Qingyan City? ”
Bai Mo was surprised: "Are there any monsters? I also just came to Qingyan City not long ago, so I don't know about this. Isn't Lin Gongzi a master of cultivation?"
Lin Qiuzhi scratched his head and said with a smile: "I'm just cultivating some spells, and I'm not a master." ”
Bai Moli didn't think so, looked at him curiously, and said in a low voice, "Will Gongzi Lin protect me?"
"I, I, this ... Lin Qiu couldn't speak for a while, he was going to hunt demons, looking for a man from the same door, how could he stay here longer, but looking at her innocent eyes, he didn't know how to refuse.
Seeing him like this, Bai Moli covered his mouth and smiled, and said, "I'm just joking, don't take Lin Gongzi seriously." ”
Lin Qiuzhi breathed a sigh of relief, drank tea, and didn't know what to say, very embarrassed.
Bai Moli looked at Ying Yan casually and said, "Lin Gongzi, is this the legendary fairy sword?" The little woman has never seen it, and she is curious in her heart, can you show me." ”
Lin Qiu was startled, and hurriedly took the Immortal Flame on the table in his hand.
If she touches it, she must not be haunted by the evil aura of this dark flame and end up with a whimper.
Thinking like this, Lin Qiuzhi naturally didn't want her to touch it, but looking at her eyes, he was still a little unbearable, and said in a low voice: "This sword is a little dangerous, I'll take it out and show it to you." ”
Bai Moli bowed his head lightly and watched as Lin Qiuzhi slowly took the Immortal Flame out of the scabbard.
Facing the moonlight, the body of the Flame Sword glowed with bursts of brilliance.
A flash of remembrance flashed in Bai Moli's eyes.
But Lin Qiuzhi didn't pay attention, but looked at the flame in his hand suspiciously.
Today's Immortal Flame was actually a sword qi convergence, and even Lin Qiuzhi didn't feel a trace of abnormality, as if it was the most ordinary long sword.
"Good sword. Bai Moli said in a low voice.
Lin Qiuzhi replied casually, looked at the Immortal Flame with a confused expression, and then put it away.
If it weren't for the fact that this flame was always with him, he would have doubted that someone had dropped it.
Lin Qiuzhi looked at the sky, thought about it, and still didn't plan to stay here for a long time, picked up the Dark Flame, stood up, and said respectfully: "Mo Li, the matter of catching demons can't be delayed, I'd better go and investigate first." ”
Bai Moli hurriedly got up and said, "Young Master Lin, how can there be any monsters at such a late hour, why don't you stay for a while." ”
Lin Qiuzhi is willing to continue here, and he is not familiar with Mo Li, it is very embarrassing here, it is better to go outside to see if there are any clues about the monster, no matter how bad it is, it is better to go to the mayor's house than to stay in a woman's house.
Lin Qiuzhi excused himself and left the mansion.
Mo Li looked at his distant figure, his eyes gradually became gentle like water, and he muttered to himself.
"The white heads are inseparable... ”
