Chapter 10 Hearing is false

"All kinds of changes?" Fang Xu was even more curious, and asked, "Then tell me how he changed in every way." ”

The beggar took a bite of the sauced beef and whispered, "He can turn into anything." He can be a butterfly, a bird, an old man, or a young man. Ye Suifeng didn't believe it, and sneered: "Hmph!

The beggar was not pleased, and said, "How is it impossible! Why so many masters have not caught him, it is because he can change." Many people have seen him, some say he is a young man, some say he is an old man, some say he is a child, and ......"

"Stop!" Fang Xu interrupted him, picked up the dagger on the table, pointed the dagger at the beggar, and said, "Are you talking nonsense?"

The beggar was very flustered and said, "I...... What I'm saying is the truth!" Ye Suifeng patted Fang Xu's arm and said, "Don't be impulsive, let me ask you, how did you know about this?" The beggar looked nervous and said, "Because ...... Because I saw it. ”

The journey was not long, and it didn't take long for Xue Yuyu to return to the Yao Inn. The lobby is still as deserted as ever, and the account room is still settling the books. Xue Yuyu went upstairs to find Fang Xu and Ye Suifeng, but found that they were not in the house, so he went downstairs, walked to the counter, and asked, "Did you see Fang Xu and Ye Suifeng coming back?" The bookkeeper shook his head. Xue Liyu asked again, "That...... Where is the shopkeeper Meng?", the account clerk shook his head again.

Xue Liyu sighed and said, "Why isn't anyone there!" and then walked to the nearest chair and sat down. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly looked up and asked the bookkeeper: "By the way, I don't know your name yet." The bookkeeper glanced at her, and then wrote his name on the paper: Jiang Chen.

"One night a few years ago, I was sleeping in the ruined temple, and I heard a lot of people talking, and I got up and walked out of the ruined temple, and I was startled to see many people gathered in front of the door. Then the leader said that he had found a thief leaving their house, so he led people to chase them, but they came to this place, and then I took them in and looked around, and they found nothing, so they went back. ”

"Then I was about to go back to sleep, and suddenly I felt someone behind me, and before I could react, a man covered his mouth and pressed him to the ground, and the man put a knife against my neck, signaling me not to speak, I didn't dare to move, he told me that he was going to stay for the night, and told me not to talk out, so he stayed all night, and when I woke up the next day, he was gone. ”

The beggar took a sip of his wine and continued: "The next day, I saw the same group of people from last night again, and I was startled when I overheard them talking about what happened last night. ”

Ye Suifeng said: "What's the matter?"

The beggar said, "What happened to their house that night was ...... That 'ghost'. ”

"Huh?" Fang Xu frowned.

The beggar said, "But...... The only difference was that everyone else said that the 'ghost' was an old man, and the one I saw that day was obviously a young man. At first I suspected that what I was seeing was not the 'ghost', but one night a few days later, as I was about to return to the temple, I passed by a room and caught a glimpse of a man writing in blood on the wall, dressed the same as the man I had seen in the ruined temple at the time, and there was a man lying next to him, and the man who was lying down was the owner of the house. ”

"I was so frightened that I cried out, because when I saw what he wrote, it was definitely the 'ghost', and he heard my voice and chased after me......"

"Wait!" Fang Xu interrupted, "What is that word?" The beggar looked at him in surprise and asked, "It's the one you said, and his name, don't you know?" Fang Xu said: "That sentence knows, what is his name?" ”

The beggar sighed and said, "It's not that Shopkeeper Meng doesn't say it, it's that the name can't be said!" "Why can't you say it?" Ye Suifeng said. The beggar said, "I heard, he exists everywhere, he will hear what you say, and if you say his name, he will come to you." It seems that those who have said his name have died very miserably. ”

"I see!" Ye Suifeng suddenly realized, and said, "No wonder ......" "Suifeng! such a ridiculous thing, can you believe it?" Fang Xu looked at Ye Suifeng suspiciously. Ye Suifeng didn't answer, but said lightly: "You continue!"

The beggar continued: "I was caught by him after a short run, and I was so frightened that I told him that I had not told anyone what had happened in the ruined temple at that time, and that the man had spared my life, and told me that I should not have seen what had happened today, and then left. I haven't forgotten that voice to this day, it was definitely not the voice I heard in the ruined temple, that voice...... It seems that the 'ghost' has grown dozens of years in a few days. ”

Hearing this, Fang Xu couldn't help but laugh and said, "Hmph! Obviously, these are two people. Ye Suifeng asked, "What is his name?" The beggar didn't speak, Fang Xu picked up the knife, and said, "Do you want to say it?" The beggar was very flustered and explained: "I really can't say it, I'll die after speaking." ”

Ye Suifeng snatched the dagger and said coldly: "Then do you want to die now?" "I advise you to say it, maybe that 'ghost' doesn't have air control for you now!" Fang Xu said. The beggar pondered for a moment, sighed, and said, "He...... His name is 'Soul Snatcher'. ”

In the Yao Wei Inn, Jiang Chen, the account room, was still counting the account books, and Xue Yuyu had been beside him asking him questions. "How many years have you been here?" Xue Liyu asked. Jiang Chen wrote the word "five years" on the paper, "Five years? That's a long time!" Xue Yuyu thought back to himself five years ago, when he was only 11 years old!

"Then how old are you?" Xue Yuyu asked again. Jiang Chen stopped writing, thought for a moment, and shook his head. "Huh?" Xue Yuyu said in surprise: "You don't even know your age?" Jiang Chen wrote on the paper: It's been a long time, and I forgot it. Xue Liyu was very puzzled: How long does it take for a person to forget his age!

After a long time, Fang Xu and Ye walked into the Yao Inn with a melancholy expression. "Where have you been?" Xue Liyu asked as she poured her tea. Fang Xu sat opposite Xue Yu, and Ye Suifeng sat next to Fang Xu. Fang Xu picked up the teacup, drank it all, soothed his breath, and said, "Let's go to Zhu's house." Xue Yuyu said, "What's the result?" Fang Xu shook his head. Ye Suifeng said: "Why didn't you see the shopkeeper Meng?" Xue Yuyu said: "I don't know!"

At night, Fang Xu and Ye sat on the tree with the wind. Fang Xu said: "You say...... What the beggar said is not credible!" Ye Suifeng did not speak, changed his posture, lay on the thicker trunk, closed his eyes and rested. "You're really at ease!" Fang Xu said helplessly.

After a while, Ye Suifeng said silently: "It's both true and false, it's both false and true...... "Huh?" Fang Xu couldn't help but be curious when he heard Ye Suifeng chanting this sentence over and over again, so he asked: "What is true or false?" Ye Suifeng opened his eyes, looked at the night sky quietly, and said: "What the beggar said should be true...... Fang Xu looked at Ye Suifeng with an incredulous expression, and said: "You still believe him?

Ye Suifeng sat up and said, "Maybe what the beggar said is true, but ...... What I don't believe is that 'Desire to Seize the Soul', if he has such great powers, how could he just stay in Dingzhou, it is obviously that the 'Desire to Seize the Soul' has strong martial arts, and it is not just one person, or it is just a ......" Ye Suifeng wanted to speak and stopped.

"Or what?" Fang Xu asked. Ye Suifeng said: "Someone deliberately passed on the ......" "Huh?" Fang Xu thought for a moment and said, "Hmm...... Then it all makes sense. Fang Xu fell into deep thought, and the two did not speak again.

When the time came, Fang Xu said: "With the wind, it's time to go back." Then he jumped off the tree. "Fang Xu!" Ye Suifeng stopped Fang Xu and said, "Can you tell me what kind of person Zhang Wanan is?" Fang Xu was stunned for a moment, looked back at Ye Suifeng, and said, "When Taiyuan, there were six people who worshiped with your father and Xue Lang, and Zhang Wanan was one of them. In my impression, Zhang Wanan is righteous, and dangerous things are always at the forefront, this is my impression of Zhang Wanan when he was in Taiyuan, but when he returned to Luyang, he was busy with family affairs and did not have too many contacts. ”

"Got it!" Ye Suifeng jumped off the tree, patted the dust on his clothes, and said, "Thank you!" and then left, Fang Xu looked at Ye Suifeng's back, and couldn't help sighing: "Alas!

Time will always slip away quietly when his eyes are closed and opened, and by the time Ye Suifeng opens his eyes again, it is already the next day. "Huh?" Ye Suifeng found that Fang Xu was not in the house, and he didn't care. Ye Suifeng took out the white jade flute, the jade flute is about two feet, white and flawless, no need to modify too much, the red tassel on the tail and the jade white flute body are a perfect match.

Ye Suifeng gently stroked the words engraved on the flute: Jiuyi Xiaoxiang. This jade flute was left to him by Ye Suifeng's mother, and because it was a relic of his mother, Ye Suifeng generally did not let others touch the flute.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk ......" suddenly heard a slight knock on the door, Ye Suifeng opened the door, only to see Xue Yuyu standing in front of the door, holding the freshly cooked Hu cake in his hand.

"What's wrong?" Ye Suifeng asked. Xue Yuyu said: "I just went out and brought you some Hu cakes back." Then he handed over the Hu Biscuit in his hand. Ye Suifeng frowned slightly, took the Hu cake, and said, "Isn't Fang Xu with you?"

"Fang Xu, I didn't see him!" Xue Yuyu said. Ye Suifeng thought for a moment and said, "Don't go out alone for a while." "Is something wrong?" Xue Yuyu asked. Ye Suifeng was just about to speak, when he suddenly had a bad premonition, looked around, and didn't find anything strange, so he said to Xue Yuyu: "Well, as long as you are in this inn, there is nothing to do!"

"I can also help......" Before the words came out, Xue Yuyu realized that he didn't know martial arts, he didn't hold weapons, if he ran into an enemy, he might not even have a chance to escape, and if he helped them, he would probably become a burden to them.

"Okay! I'll stay at the inn!" Xue Yuyu said.

Ye Suifeng turned around and walked to the window, his brows tightened, and he thought: This premonition is very bad, I hope it is not Fang Xu ......" Xue Liyu walked to Ye Suifeng's side and said, "What's wrong?" Ye Suifeng didn't speak, just quietly stared at Dingzhou City.

"Ye Suifeng!Ye Suifeng!" Suddenly, someone downstairs shouted Ye Suifeng, Ye Suifeng listened carefully, it was Fang Xu, Ye Suifeng and Xue Yuyu immediately ran out of the door, and met Fang Xu who came up, Fang Xu was out of breath, and said, "Suifeng...... Oh no...... Something happened!" Ye Suifeng frowned, thinking badly, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"That...... That beggar, he's dead!"
