What is even more surprising is that ...... words "little demon protection" are not heard from the mouths of demons, but from the mouths of mortals.

- This land and white water.

Lu Baishui's cognition of demons, demons and gods is very similar to the people of the Central Plains to a certain extent. Now he wasn't sure if Dragon Island and the True Dragon really existed, but he was sure that there was such a thing.

It is because he has traveled all over the Middle Continent, and he has indeed seen demons, and even made friends with one or two.

In the past few days, he has a very close relationship with Li Yunxin, so he casually mentioned this matter. He said that he was a brother and sister to a demon near Whitewater Town, and he often had dealings.

Before Li Yunxin arrived, he heard the demon say that something big had happened in the demon world. The real dragon and the dragon have made a "little demon protection" to restrain the demons in the world to do good and accumulate virtue and benefit one party.

Listening to the words in his mouth, the demon was not a vicious demon king, he was a little demon. Naturally, there was a lot of interest in this. But he also said that the "kings" elsewhere don't like these things and will definitely ignore them.

When Lu Baishui said this, his face showed a rare mystery and a little show-off. Perhaps this kind of thing is indeed a rare secret in the world in his heart.

Li Yunxin was first surprised that there was such a thing as a demon near this Baishui Town. Because after the Battle of Yunshan, the number of demons and monks has decreased sharply, and it should be more uncommon than before. But then I realized that I didn't mention anything else, just in the case of this East China Sea country...... The impact of that battle should be minimal.

- Just near Dragon Island, who will listen to the call of the dragon and run to death.

But after all, I know that more and more people know about what he did.

Now this hero, who can be called a "legend" in the secular world, stands in front of him, and his face still has a look of guilt and chagrin on his face - because of his previous problem.

Although people like Lu Baishui are arrogant and capricious, they are not brainless guys. Otherwise, he would have died on the way to the road, and he would not have survived until now.

He lived in an excellent woman in this inn nearly two years ago, and now he lives in Li Yunxin, and he took the portrait and asked-naturally I want to think about whether there is any other intention. If so...... It is inevitable that you will be greatly disappointed in this person, and even turn against him.

Considers......

This Li Yunxin - Li Yunxin, who has made him feel like a spring breeze in the past four days, is peaceful and peaceful, and has the style of gentlemen and celebrities in ancient times...... Actually, they are not human. It's still a casual nonsense without pressure, and even more flawless.

With his usual shrewdness, he sensed that something might be wrong. However, he immediately felt that his usual shrewdness was for the worldly and the vulgar. Use this to ask the strange man in front of you...... Isn't that humiliating?

And force him to solemnly make such a poisonous oath!

Looking at this again, Li Yun's heart was still peaceful, and he opened his mouth to comfort him...... Lu Baishui had mixed feelings for a while, and he felt even more ashamed.

After a long sigh, he slammed his fist into his palm: "Okay! This matter is wrapped up in me! I will be ready to prepare in the next few days—as soon as I am ready, I will go to sea with Brother Li by boat!"

"Listen to the sea and watch the waves...... Hmph, where is the joy of hanging on the clouds and sailing to the sea?!"

This sentence was learned from Li Yunxin. The Dragon King of Weishui has been able to tell Lu Baishui a lot of strange things at sea in the past few days - naturally in the silent way of moistening things with spring rain.

Li Yunxin stood up and frowned: "Brother Lu—"

Lu Baishui waved his hand: "Hey, don't persuade me—you just treat me as if it's not just for yourself! I wanted to go to the sea to see what else was beyond heaven and earth, what the real dragon dragon island looked like, not to mention ......"

He paused when he said this, and looked at Li Yunxin: "Brother Li has found the right one." Lingtang did go overseas. ”

Li Yunxin's eyes widened: "Brother Lu...... This is ...... Really?"

"Really. Lu Baishui sighed, "When she came, it was last year. Late spring last year – I remember when the puffin fish were fat. I'll see if there's anything to collect. She lives in this shop...... Choose this one. ”

I spoke to her. At the time, I was very surprised, but now I heard Brother Li say that Lingtang used to cultivate Taoism, and it is normal to think about it - she spoke very mysteriously at that time. ”

Li Yunxin breathed a sigh of relief: "Her condition at that time was ......"

"Alone. Lu Baishui said, "Alone." I don't see coercion or anything else. But I can see that I am unhappy, depressed, and I haven't seen a smiling face. ”

“...... Oh. ”

Lu Baishui stopped and looked at Li Yunxin carefully. Li Yunxin slowly sat down again and let out a long breath: "Brother Lu, please continue." ”

"Alas. Good. ”

"I stayed for about three or four days, and I went out a lot. Brother Li knows that I like to make interesting people...... Well...... I found someone to follow Ling Tang - ah, there is no malice, Ling Tang has a skill when I ...... Brother Li don't-"

Li Yunxin smiled: "Human nature. Brother Lu doesn't have to take it to heart. ”

This "Brother Li" has always been like this - gentle and reasonable. It doesn't look like a martial arts master, but it's again. It is this point that makes Lu Baishui the most heartbroken.

So he laughed too: "Eh! These are all revealed—and then I learned that Ling Tang had asked some people in the town." Ask, how to go to sea, can you know where Dragon Island is. ”

"I guess I asked for three or four days. Find a bad gambler named Li Si. ”

Li Yunxin raised his eyebrows: "Li Si." ”

"Hah...... This name was given by someone else. Lu Baishui smiled, "It's a fisherman." If anyone is proficient in the art of navigation, can read the weather, and distinguish the wind and rain, there is no one in this town who disagrees with him. It's a pity that he is lazy and easy to gamble - he is so poor that he has no food to eat before he is willing to run to the sea. ”

"I often say that I have seen Dragon Island and know how to get there. But everyone didn't believe him, when he said that he came to cheat money. ”

Ling Tang didn't know how to move him, and the next day, he bought a brig that used to run along the coast in the town, recruited a dozen boatmen, and went to sea. ”

"At that time, everyone who knew about it didn't think it was good. I also persuaded her-" Lu Baishui shook his head, "The dozen or so people Li Si is looking for are not good at stubble. Lingtang is again...... That's the way, so I think that once I get to the sea, but there is more luck than luck - Li Si must have just wanted to cheat money. But who knows if I'll think of anything else. ”

But no one could persuade her. I went to sea that night. It wasn't until now that I heard Brother Li talk about Lingtang's past, and I realized that it was in vain. Those things that don't enter the stream are not Ling Tang's opponents. ”

Li Yunxin stared at him closely: "...... And then?"

"Later...... It's hard to put into words. Lu Baishui raised his eyes and looked out of the terrace.

Originally, the sky was hazy and blue. At this time, some orange light came from the sky, and the sea was gilded with a faint golden light. But it was sunset just - a gloomy day. In the evening, the sea slowly cleared.

"I'll take Brother Li to see it. Lu Baishui said, "I'll tell you after I see it." ”

"Look at whom?"

"Li Si. ”

......

......

Whitewater in winter is gray.

It also snowed, but not much. Therefore, it melts at noon and freezes in the morning and evening. The white snow turned to dirty ash and spread across the narrow streets and low houses.

The East Sea Inn is built on a low mountain cliff. On the cliff, on the slope, there are some more magnificent buildings, and the road surface is also paved with bluestone. Down the slope, there are large residential areas and restaurants. Mixed together, high and low.

It's snowing and icing, but it's warmer than farther north. According to Li Yunxin's opinion, the temperature here in early winter hovers roughly around minus 12 degrees. If you think it's the middle of winter, it's only a dozen degrees below zero.

Therefore, there are still many people who come here in winter. Because the sea near Whitewater Town is still rich in autumn when several specialty seafood are abundant. Nowadays, it is difficult to walk, and it is even more difficult to keep fresh. So it was made into pickles. It has become a special delicacy and has gradually become famous.

Therefore, as soon as late autumn passes and winter, when those who eat and pickle the food taste, people from nearby states and counties come to "try it" - in the eyes of some people, it can be regarded as a kind of life mood.

When the two of them walked down the road, it was just in time for dinner. Many tourists and diners from other places flocked to the street from the warm houses and rushed to a few restaurants on the cliff. These are some of them that I can't afford to eat, but I am willing to eat. So I stayed in an inn at the bottom of the cliff, and only went up to the cliff when I was sightseeing.

It's a lot like Little Rock, a high-end business district built high on a hilltop, and it's a picture of love that can't come by. However, given the staggering wealth gap in this era, this marketing strategy makes sense. After all, their façade is only open to a few.

In this way, the two of them went against the current.

Li Yunxin's clothes are rich and noble at a glance. Lu Baishui's body is also highly recognizable in Baishui Town. So there was nothing crowded on the road—those who knew him made way for him. Those who don't recognize give way.

The two of them walked for a quarter of an hour to the bottom of the cliff, and it was already dark. The lights slowly turned on, and the town was not gray, but warm yellow.

Passing through a large area of low houses, Lu Baishui took Li Yunxin to the south of the town. The houses gradually became smaller, and there began to be large areas of untouched snow and dead trees pestled like poles.

"The one in front is Li Si's home. Lu Baishui stepped on the icy and potholed road, and said to Li Yunxin as he walked. And he raised his hand and pointed at it.

There was a small courtyard in front of it, and it was lonely outside the town. The low walls that look like gravel are covered with loess, and the roof is also covered with thatch. There were no people around, and the low, lifeless hills in the distance were set against the backdrop. At this time, there were still 100 steps away from the courtyard, but Li Yunxin could already hear the voices of people in the courtyard. And there's quite a few.

And he noticed the path under his feet.

The roads of this era were mostly dirt roads. It's snowing, and if there aren't many people walking around, you'll probably only be able to leave a few footprints. However, the one under their feet was trampled and frozen, frozen and melted, and it was obvious that there were many people walking by......

Li Si's family is very lively.

Then he was the only one who came back. Said that in the event of a storm, the ship was wrecked. Everyone else died, but he was the only one who lived. Say yes-" Lu Baishui turned his face to look at Li Yunxin, "Does Brother Li know the legend of the Immortal Mountain on the sea?"

Li Yun thought for a while: "I heard about it when I was a child. Dragon Island is a fairy mountain, as well as Penglai, Yingzhou, Fanghu and the like. It is said that only those who are destined can see it. ”

"Yes. Lu Baishui shook his head and looked at Li Yunxin with some concern, "That Li Si said that after the ship was wrecked, he met the immortal, the Penglai Fairy on Penglai Immortal Mountain, and saved him. also said that if you teach him the fairy law, you can know good fortune and bad luck. ”

Li Yunxin frowned: "...... He's the only one alive?"

Lu Baishui hurriedly said: "What he said may not be credible. Since Ling Tang is strong in martial arts and knows Taoism, it is not so easy to have an accident - so I brought Brother Li to ask in person. You put your heart down first. ”

Li Yun nodded wordlessly.

The two soon arrived outside the hospital.

Looking through the open wooden door, I found that there were more than a dozen people standing inside. There are more women and more elderly. Looking at the clothes, I knew that life was not satisfactory, and my face was either sad or numb—standing in the cold wind of a winter evening, looking into the house.

The door of the house was not shut. Let the cold wind whine in. A few people crowded the doorway, some in the door. Li Yunxin and Lu Baishui entered the courtyard, and the people in the courtyard took a look at them. But by this time it was getting darker and the candles in the house were so faint that people could not see who was coming.

So he turned his head away, shrunk his neck, and continued to endure the biting cold wind.

The two of them squeezed forward again, and only then did someone see Lu Baishui's face clearly, and his face softened and he wanted to speak. But Lu Baishui waved his hand, and the man was busy silencing. After a while, everyone in the courtyard shrank back and made room for the two.

Lu Baishui whispered in the night: "It's scattered tonight." Let's go back. Tomorrow I will go to the Donghai Inn to get some rice noodles. ”

More than a dozen people in the courtyard immediately bowed to him wordlessly and hurried away.

Li Yunxin nodded slightly: "Brother Lu is a real hero, not a hero." ”

Lu Baishui shook his head: "Brother Li has won the award." ”

And they looked into the door together.

In the low room and in the main hall, a dim oil lamp was lit, and there was an incense table. I don't know where the incense case came from, but it's wide and large. But there were a few futons on it, and Li Si sat cross-legged on the futon.

Li Si's appearance is very strange. He only wore thin clothes, but he tied the neckline and cuffs tightly. He was a very thin man, but he was greased and powdered. His face and hands were smeared white like ghosts, and he put a cloth bag on his head. There were a few big red silk flowers in his pocket, and some other shiny things. It looks both funny and nondescript.

Now he closed his eyes, sat cross-legged on the incense table, shook his head, and said something in his mouth.

There was a man standing under the desk, looking up at him with a slightly bent body...... It seems to be worried about something.

"But some people in the town say that this is not the fairy law. Lu Baishui and Li Yunxin looked at the door for a while, and said in a low voice, "Actually, I think so too." ”

"I've ever seen the Horse Immortal - does Brother Li know the Horse Immortal?"

Li Yunxin said "um": "I've heard of it." Say yes...... The spirits who practice in the mountains and fields go out of the mountains to find a destined person to be a disciple. Someone asked Bu, the demon fairy is attached to the disciple, and the disciple's mouth is used to judge the good fortune and evil - Brother Lu wants to say that he belongs to this category?"

Lu Baishui nodded: "This Li Si is no different from ordinary people in ordinary times - at most, he was frightened when he came back from going to sea, and his speech was a bit upside down." ”

"But when it comes time to start the hexagram, it will be a different person. I thought...... What kind of demon fairy should be attached to him. At this he shook his head again, "I asked my brother of the demon. My brother said that this is also common - mostly little demons, and they don't do evil, just for some merit. I don't care...... Ah, do you believe these Brother Li?"

"Something tangible. Where there is a believer or not. Li Yunxin said as he looked at Li Si's body.

This look is to cautiously transport the demon power, wanting to see if it is the "horse immortal" that Lu Baishui said.

- Yes, I did. On the body of "Li Si", there is a layer of misty black fog. It's about a little bit of a person's shape, but it can also be said to be something else, "coincidental". Indeed, something was attached to him. But what the hell is it...... But I can't see it.

Li Yun thought about it and frowned.

At this time, Li Si opened his eyes.

I shuddered first. It was as if someone was carrying his head and shaking it vigorously from top to bottom.

Then he reached out and touched a few large red silk flowers on his head, and then moved his eyes to the person in front of the case, and opened his mouth-

"Ah...... Oh...... What do you ask? Huh? Ah......hh You ask your chickens, who stole them? Huh?"

"Hee-hee...... Ben Niangniang knows- hmm...... I'm the Penglai Niangniang of Penglai Immortal Mountain!Do you know?!"

The man nodded hurriedly: "I know, I know......"

Li Yunxin said softly.
