Enter the secluded pavilion with the ancient bell Chapter 24 Xiaolou listens to the wind and rain for two nights

At this time in spring, it rains heavily. In previous years, such weather was rare.

The pedestrians on Phoenix Street had long since dispersed, the doors and windows of the shops were closed, and the wind swept through the empty alleys.

The dark sky engulfed all the light of the world, and darkness shrouded it, as if you were in an abyss.

Click!

Thundered!

A flash of lightning swept through the darkness, reflecting the pouring rain pouring down into the sky, one after another, hundreds, thousands, thousands, thousands, innumerable!

It was as if the Nine Heavens Milky Way was pouring down, and the huge rain curtain overlapped tens of millions of layers, and the two worlds inside and outside the line of sight.

The howling wind came from the abyss, and the ears were full of misery, roaring, and anger. There are countless emotions hidden, echoing with thousands of layers of rain curtains, and this rain is getting heavier and heavier.

......

......

Xu Ran sat quietly in the dark, the wind and rain could not penetrate the window, and a faint light blocked any power, he could listen to the wind and rain and not fall into it.

He bowed his head slightly, looking down the window. In the distance, a tall figure in a cloak and hat flickered in the white mist stirred up by the raindrops.

He kept turning his head, his steps hurried, as if there was a matter of life and death. In a blur, the speed of his galloping suddenly accelerated, and from time to time he came to the door of the Wind and Rain Building.

Xu Ran frowned slightly, and when he was looking, the shadow had disappeared.

There was a sound of footsteps downstairs, getting closer and closer, and finally stopped on the ninth floor.

Only a few dim candles on the ninth floor counted as light, and the flames flickered slightly because of his arrival.

Xu Ran saw the golden waist card that kept shaking around his waist, and a little scarlet hung on it, which was very eye-catching.

Shenryu Division?

Xu Ran had seen this waist card, which was once worn by the three sergeants of the Divine Dragon Division under Ye Qingyin, and when the lightning flashed, he not only saw Ye Qingyin's appearance, but also saw this waist card.

The man seemed to notice Xu Ran's gaze, and he couldn't see his face clearly under the hat, but he could feel his sharp gaze, quickly put away the waist card, and sat diagonally opposite Xu Ran.

The candlelight stopped flickering, and the ninth floor fell silent again.

Xu Ran retracted his gaze and was silent.

The atmosphere was a little weird, the man fidgeted, looked at Xu Ran's position frequently, and finally stood up, hesitated for a moment, and spoke: "Mind if I sit with you." ”

His voice was unusually hoarse, like two pieces of iron rubbing against each other, and it was extremely uncomfortable to listen to his ears.

Xu Ran clenched the sword in his hand: "Mind." ”

The man was slightly flustered, and his tone was slightly anxious: "I have something that is vital to my life." ”

"Mind that. ”

"I'm willing to buy your place. ”

"Mind that. ”

The man's voice was a little angry, and after trying to calm down, there was a hint of pleading: "The window you are sitting on is close to the corner, but the view is very wide, and it is not easy to be discovered, I just went there to see if they caught up." ”

Xu Ran glanced at him and didn't answer.

The man looked at Xu Ran sharply, full of murderous intent: "Young man, it is a capital crime to block the Shenlong Division from handling the case." ”

"I'm not afraid of death. ”

The man was stunned, as if he was speechless by Xu Ran's words, he walked to Xu Ran's table for a while, poked his head out, and put the side of the hat on Xu Ran's head: "You are not afraid of death, but some people are afraid." The people of the Demon Sect have repeatedly caused chaos in the gods, do you know how many innocent people they have died!"

Syllable!

The waist card that flashed with golden light was slapped on the table by him, and the three words of Shenlong Division shone brightly.

The man pointed to the scarlet blood spots, and his tone trembled: "This is my brother's blood, he is not afraid of death like you, but his death is not worth it." I'm not afraid of death, but I have to pass on the news of the remnants of the Demon Sect, they are chasing and killing all the way, and I need to keep track of their movements. ”

Xu Ran looked at the face under the hat, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, extremely resolute, and his lips trembled when he said this.

If you want to share a table on the ninth floor of the Wind and Rain Building, you need the consent of the master, even if it is the Shenlong Division. Because you have to figure out the rules here, only those with power can ascend to the ninth floor, and no one wants to have one more enemy inexplicably.

Xu Ran is also sitting here because he has a wide field of vision and can master a lot of things at the first time, and Ah Qing has explained that he can't go to this position. Sometimes one step can make a big mistake.

The man didn't sit down, he was waiting.

Candlelight alternates.

Xu Ran nodded.

The man breathed a sigh of relief, said thank you coldly, and then looked straight out the window.

Xu Ran also looked out the window, the sword he held trembled slightly, and the back of his hand turned slightly white.

Demon Sect!

Unexpectedly, hearing the news of the Demon Sect again turned out to be here, Xu Ran was in a complicated mood, and it took a long time to suppress his emotions, and at this moment, three black shadows rushed in the distance, flickering in the rain curtain, like a ghost in the dark, a poisonous snake hidden in the dark.

The man stood up suddenly, and then sat down immediately, the green tendons in his hands swelled, clenched his fists, and watched the three black shadows disappear from downstairs.

He leaned back in his chair, sobbing slowly.

Xu Ran took a deep breath, he could understand this mood and didn't bother. But there was a storm in my heart, like this wind roaring and the rain roaring.

"Do you know the Demon Sect?"

The man said calmly: "They never care about men, women and children, in order to improve their strength, even their relatives can be ruthlessly killed, in recent days, the gods seem to be calm, but there are their shadows everywhere, my brothers are thirteen, and now I am the only one left." ”

He got up and left, hurried downstairs.

......

......

Darkness, strong winds, heavy rain, lightning, thunder.

Day is no different from night.

This sudden storm actually fell for two days in a row, and it didn't seem to have stopped.

Xu Ran sat all night last night, rested slightly during the day, ate something after getting up, and sat like this again, watching the wind and rain all night, and listening to some intermittent gossip.

The matter about the Demon Sect was at least clear through the discussions of the ninth-layer people, and the shadow of the gods did exist, and the sergeant of the Divine Dragon Division did not lie.

Xu Ran believed the source of the news, because this was the ninth floor of the Wind and Rain Building. Everyone here who knows what others know, and people here who don't know what others don't know don't know.

So his hand holding the sword trembled even more.

Today is the third day of heavy rain, and it is also the third night, after tonight, he can return to the courtyard, but Xu Ran's heart is always restless. It may be because of the Demon Sect, or it may be because of the peace of the past three days.

Tonight it is still pouring rain, there is still no one in the alley, and the candlelight is still flickering. My heart is getting more and more panicked.

He didn't know what was going on, so he could only keep comforting himself that after tonight, everything would return to normal.

Xu Ran's eyes were a little unconscious, but he saw the figure again in the hazy mist, this time his steps were unsteady, swaying left and right, like a leaf in this wind and rain.

He fled in a hurry, fled to the Wind and Rain Tower, climbed to the ninth floor, and came to Xu Ran's side. It's still that position, it's still that waist card, but he is dying, his clothes are crisscrossed with dozens of wounds, and the blood is mixed with the undried rain, which knocks on Xu Ran's heart.

He gasped for breath, looked at Xu Ran longingly, pushed the blood-soaked waist card on the table, and said the last words of his life.

"Help me return the waist card, Shenlong Division. ”

Xu Ran had a gloomy face, put away his waist card, lifted his sword, and walked downstairs step by step.

......

......

Tonight's wind and rain are a little sad, more killing, revenge.
