Chapter 12: A Trip to Halloween
Yunluo still remembers that the first time he saw Yueze was 1,800 years ago.
At that time, Yunluo was 500 years old, which was exactly the same size as it is today.
The appearance of the yin ghost has become slow, and the fairies and demons have become teenagers and girls at this age, and she is still a little girl with a double bun.
However, as the youngest daughter of the Emperor of Beiyin, she is loved by thousands of people, and she can be said to be favored by all honors, and she is not limited to these skins.
Growing up and urinating and growing small does not hinder her noble status and extremely high status in the Four Wildernesses.
On the fifteenth day of July of that year, the clouds fell and went to a small town in the mortal world, 800 miles away from the capital city.
But she didn't want to go.
July 15 is Halloween, and on that day, the gates of the city will be opened, and the ghosts wandering in the city will be allowed to go out.
In order to prevent a situation that gets out of control, there are also a large number of ghosts who go with the ghosts that day.
Each group of ghosts has its own jurisdiction, and it must be guaranteed that nothing happens on the 15th of July.
Yunluo has no interest in external affairs, and she is not willing to squeeze out with a large group of people, she could have stayed in Yudu as in previous years, and she could have done whatever she should do, not to mention that it was just after her birthday at that time, and she hadn't touched all the birthday gifts sent by others.
The Emperor of Beiyin insisted that she go out, and learn more useful things with the ghosts.
Yunluo cried, made trouble, and coquettish.
But her father picked her up and threw her out.
Yes, thrown out.
And this kind of behavior is called "a last resort to help her experience." ”
The five-hundred-year-old Yunluo, carrying the Rakshasa bell and tying the blood red practice, followed a few ghosts out of the capital city in a daze.
"Your Royal Highness, follow us after you leave the capital city. "A circle of ghosts is around the clouds, and I am so curious.
"His Royal Highness still follows us, there are many of us, and we can protect His Royal Highness when we go out and encounter danger. ”
"Come with us, we're going to Kyoto, the busiest part of the city, where the night market is lively. ”
“......”
A large group of ghosts are chattering and discussing who Yunluo is going with in the end.
"I'll go with them!"
In the middle of a large group of ghosts in black clothes and white faces floating around and rolling their eyes, Yun Luoda noticed them at the beginning.
The two ghosts looked younger than the others, only slightly older than Yunluo, one looked very delicate, but seemed to be very timid, and kept looking around, and the other was a little taller, waiting behind the ghost and quietly watching Yunluo who was surrounded by a group of ghosts.
Yunluo looked at him, and he also looked at Yunluo, only the whites of his eyes looked at Yunluo unscrupulously, without fear.
Yunluo felt that if he was with them, this trip should not be too boring.
Hearing that Yunluo was going to go with them, the delicate ghost was stunned for a long time before he reacted, and then it was "I, I, we cultivate, not high, Your Highness, Your Highness......"
"Are you a stammer?" Yunluo lamented, "It's rare to see one who looks comfortable, but I didn't expect it to be a stammer, it's a pity." ”
"This is not a big deal," he continued, stammering, "and think twice about walking with your fellow highnesses." ”
"What, you're afraid that I'll drag you down?"
"No, no, no. ”
"Isn't that good, it's decided, I'll go with you. ”
The ghosts saw Yunluo walking towards the two ghosts, sighed for a while, and then dispersed all at once.
Yunluo can only follow them.
The ghost almost walked to the mortal world with a bitter face and Yunluo.
"Big brother, where are we going?" Yunluo got a pair of water-cut eyes from her short-lived mother, and she was especially soul-stirring when she looked at you intently, so every time she made a mistake, she looked at you with big misty eyes until your heart softened.
This trick can be used on anyone.
Tried and tested.
So......
"There are thousands of little ghosts, and they can't afford to be called such a title by His Royal Highness. The ghost was so frightened that his legs went limp, and his body floating in the air almost fell.
"But that's what I call Brother Ten Palaces. ”
"This, this, this...... His Royal Highness Mo Mo wanted, open, just kidding, how can the little ghost be compared with the King of Yama of the Ten Palaces. Onicha's snow-white face turned a little red.
"Your Royal Highness, don't scare Bai Yuan, he is timid and can't help but be scared. At this time, another ghost who had been behind him floated between the two of them and said with a smile.
"Who are you?" the five-hundred-year-old Yunluo felt new to everyone when he saw him, "Why did I scare him?"
"The little ghost's name is Midnight. "I saluted in the middle of the night" His Royal Highness is the Emperor of Beiyin, the capital of Xudu, with a noble identity, and our little ghosts can't stand His Highness's title like this, if people know that they are afraid that they will lose their lives, they will naturally be afraid. ”
Bai Yu hurriedly floated over as if he had seen a life-saving straw, and timidly hid behind Midnight.
"Oh. "Yunluo is a little stuffy" is like this one by one, and they don't let me shout, it's really annoying. ”
"Actually", Midnight smiled and floated over, standing in front of the little Yunluo, leaning down slightly, the eyes without eyeballs were facing Yunluo, "If you don't want to, you can shout as much as you like when there is no one." ”
The white circle behind him fell from the air, helpless just a soul, and when he fell, he couldn't stir up much noise.
The two Yunluo in front of them were talking and laughing, and they didn't notice him at all.
He had no choice but to get up slowly, and quietly tugged at the corner of Midnight's clothes, "Zizi Midnight...... She, she's Her Highness Yin Ji......"
"It's nothing", Midnight smoothed off his hand and touched Bai Yu's head, "No one knows, His Royal Highness is also happy, why not?"
Bai Pu puffed out his cheeks, but didn't say anything more.
Yunluo felt that he had really chosen the right person.
It took them two hours to reach their jurisdiction.
Midnight and Bai Qi were originally floating around, but Yunluo couldn't float up, so he could only fly with her with blood and red practice.
After Yunluo landed, what he thought in his heart was: I have to be able to fly, otherwise I don't know when I will go.
The area under the jurisdiction of the two of them is neither a lively Kyoto nor a beautiful town, but a deserted and broken village where no smoke and birds do not.
Yunluo raised his little head and looked at the tattered entrance to the village, as well as the three words on the wooden sign that were also tattered, "Qingshui Town." ”
"The village is as its name suggests", Yunluo shook his head, "The whole village is like Qingshui, there is nothing." ”
Midnight but smiled silently, drifted in faintly, Bai Yu wanted to say something, saw Midnight's appearance and closed his mouth tightly again.
"I said that you were bullied in the capital of Xudu, how could you be assigned to such a place?" Midnight floated in front, Yunluo didn't like to float around in mid-air all day, and her feet didn't touch the ground made her feel very empty. As soon as she flew to the entrance of the village, she withdrew her blood red practice, walked on the ground by herself, stretched out her hand to reach the midnight clothes, and couldn't reach it, so she had to tilt her head and chat with Bai Qi flying on the left side.
Bai Yu glanced at Yunluo silently, but didn't speak, Yunluo couldn't see anything from the eyes that only had the whites of his eyes, and the two of them stared at each other for a long time.
"You can say whatever you want, and I won't scold you, just look at me like this. Yunluo's eyes were sour, and he didn't see the reason.
This is a gesture of the eyes, some words are not appropriate, and it is embarrassing to say it in person. The midnight that was floating in front of him suddenly turned back, and leaned down to see the small clouds falling.
Yunluo's face was full of puzzlement, and he was about to ask a few more words, when there was an intermittent angry shout not far away: "Go away, you dirty things...... Get out!"
Yunluo thinks it's amazing, there are people living in such a remote place?
Since they first came in, they have passed through most of the village, and they are all desolate and desolate, most of the houses are dilapidated, some of them have long been crumbling, and it is clear that this place has long been deserted.
"Alas, another one. Midnight sighed and drifted past the cries for help.
"What does he mean by that?"
Bai Yu stared at Yunluo sympathetically, "Your Royal Highness, I have already said no, no, don't come, this here and here is not very clean." ”
"Can you slow down and talk to me again?" Yunluo's head grew as he listened to the words he kept repeating.
"Just because there are no people in this small village doesn't mean there aren't ghosts. Midnight turned around and hugged Bai Qi, and smoothed out Bai Qi, who was talking too quickly, and explained, "The more places where there are no people, the wandering spirits and wild ghosts like the most." ”
"The precinct of me, me, me, and midnight is the most likely place for things to happen. Bai Yu finished breathing and immediately added.
After listening to this, Yunluo only felt that he had jumped into the wolf's den.
After hesitating for a long time, she said, "Bai Yuan, can you slow down your speech?" ”
Bai Wei lowered his head in shame and didn't dare to look at Yunluo.
"It's useless to slow down, he was born with a stammer," Midnight touched Bai Yuan's head and smiled, "This looks cute." ”
Bai Qian blushed.
Yunluo tilted his head to look at the two ghosts floating in the air, and felt that something seemed to be wrong.
Midnight first floated over to investigate.
After a while, he shouted, and his voice was stretched long in the wind, "Come here, don't be there, we're going to get down to business." ”
Bai Yu floated over without saying a word, Yunluo hesitated for a moment, and also ran over with his little short legs.
Walking in front of a ruined temple, the cry for help became even more obvious.
Yunluo drew blood and practiced red, and he was about to step into it with a majestic spirit.
The midnight that was floating in the air slowly grabbed the collar.
"You, you, you are presumptuous!" Yunluo was treated like this for the first time, his little face was red and he didn't pull his collar out of Midnight's hand, and a pair of beautiful eyes glared at Midnight.
"Your Highness, since you have chosen to follow us, and this is our jurisdiction, you have to listen to us. Midnight's white eyes were facing the broken temple, but his hand was still on Yunluo's collar, and he spoke to Yunluo in a tone that was not hurried but could not be refused.
"I see. Yunluo wanted to be smart, otherwise she wouldn't be so favored in Xudu, she knew that Midnight must have her own plans at this moment, so she didn't dare to be more presumptuous.
Yunluo knows a truth: "Whoever owns the territory is in charge." ”
"Midnight, what's going on here, what's going on?" Bai asked in a whisper as he leaned closer to midnight.
Midnight's brows furrowed more and more, and then he shouted in a low voice, "Not good." ”
"What's wrong?" Bai Qi saw Midnight like this, and immediately became nervous, "The one inside, is it very, very powerful?"
"The ghosts in there aren't very good. Midnight tilted his head and shook his head at Yunluo, "But it seems to be a bit troublesome to deal with, it seems that His Highness is right to come with him this time." ”
Yunluo felt as if he was living in the clouds, ethereal and misty, and he didn't know what others were saying, "What do you mean?"
"Inside this temple, ghosts gather within a radius of hundreds of miles. Midnight drifted a little lower and pointed to the temple, "because inside, there seems to be something attracting them." ”
