Volume I, Chapter 11

"Kick. Step on. Step on. "A few sounds going upstairs. Break the silence of the night.

"Kick. Step on. Step on. "It's still the same upstairs voice. It's just that the voice is unhurried. In the middle of the night, I heard such a voice. It's like hearing a heart that has stopped beating and suddenly restarts.

"Kick. Step on. Step on. "It's still the same voice. But the voice, getting closer, closer and closer. The night was deep and gloomy. Everything is so cold that it makes people shudder.

If you are a person with a ghost in your heart, you will definitely be scared half to death. Because this voice is not like a ghost, but it is better than a ghost. There were only eleven or twelve stairs from the first floor to the second floor, but the sound sounded like a century had passed.

Lu Xingyun has no ghosts in his heart, and he has never been afraid of ghosts. But this night, at this moment. A chill also rose on Lu Xingyun's back. Even Lu Xingyun himself later said that he was really scared that night. Because the sound of going upstairs was like coming from hell, so heavy and dark that you couldn't breathe.

Just as Lu Xingyun held his already suppressed breath and was ready to find out. The strange footsteps suddenly stopped, as if they had never been there.

But Lu Xingyun knew that it was true. Because, at this time, Lu Xingyun felt uneasy. As a swordsman, this uneasiness doesn't just come out of nowhere.

Lu Xingyun lived in this room near the stairs. This room has a nice name, it's called Ruyan Pavilion.

Lu Xingyun didn't move, and he couldn't move. At such moments, static braking is the best means of attack. If you move, you may die.

Lu Xingyun was waiting, waiting for the other party to make a move. Although, Lu Xingyun didn't know what was waiting for. But he had to wait, because there was no better way for him than to wait.

The sudden cessation of the sound made the eerie night, which had been broken, even more eerie.

Lu Xingyun's pupils contracted suddenly, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying. Lu Xingyun was indeed afraid, but those sharp eyes showed it. Fear did not make Lu Xingyun lose his mind, but became more cautious.

Actually, Lu Xingyun didn't see anything. To be exact, it should be. Lu Xingyun saw a figure.

The figure suddenly appeared outside his door. With Lu Xingyun's ear power, he didn't even hear the sound of footsteps, not even a single sound.

Lu Xingyun was sitting facing the door.

Previously, Lu Xingyun was also staring at the door tightly. There was nothing but the sudden sound of footsteps going up the stairs. Even if it's a figure.

However, this figure appeared out of thin air, like a ghost. However, there are no ghosts in this world, and even more so ghosts have no shadows.

Lu Xingyun's heart was also trembling, but his head was thinking about this strange scene quickly.

The footsteps stopped, and the man must have gone up to the second floor, so it could be explained. Lu Xingyun thought to himself.

"But this staircase is at least a foot away from my door, and no matter how high the light work is, it should leave an afterimage, even if it is a line. Lu Xingyun was shocked in his heart.

But that's not the case. The figure appeared in front of Lu Xingyun's door abruptly, and there was no shadow as thin as the line Lu Xingyun wanted to see.

Whoever encounters this kind of scene will inevitably feel furious in their hearts.

Lu Xingyun didn't move. He still sat like that. However, only Lu Xingyun himself knows. He was ready for his mortal sword.

"Squeak". The door opened. This voice is not noticed by anyone on weekdays. But it was this loose, ordinary, insignificant sound of the door opening, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day. Break the eerie silence. [Water Chill Sword] net's first net water chill sword 1

Just as Lu Xingyun was about to unleash his killer sword, Lu Xingyun stopped. Because, he saw Ah Xiang. Yes, the one who opened the door at this time was the little second Ah Xiang in the inn during the day today.

Ah Xiang is still Ah Xiang, still in that dress, still so low.

"Guest, are you unwell?" asked Ah Xiang with concern.

Because, Ah Xiang saw a few drops of sweat oozing from Lu Xingyun's forehead. Ah Xiang smiled in his heart, because his plan was already half successful. But he still asked in a concerned tone. He didn't dare to show any abnormal behavior, even a finger movement. He was afraid of Lu Xingyun, and he was even more afraid of Lu Xingyun's eyes. Because, Lu Xingyun didn't answer him, nor did he have any expression, just stared at him deadly.

"Guest officer, just now the proprietress saw that your room was still lit, so she instructed the villain to send you a pot of "Midnight Spring Dawn Tea". Seeing that Lu Xingyun still didn't react at all, Ah Xiang continued.

"It's late at night in Cloudy Town, and it's cold. The proprietress said that this tea can ward off the cold and resist fatigue. The proprietress also wants to thank the guest officer for his enthusiastic help. ”

Ah Xiang lowered his head and didn't say anything more. Ah Xiang waited a little longer, he wanted Lu Xingyun to let him in and let him put down the tea. Ah Xiang was very anxious. Because he knows that the more time passes, the worse it will be for him.

Lu Xingyun still didn't move.

Lu Xingyun is tempting and waiting. He didn't know why the proprietress had someone bring him tea so late?" There's definitely something wrong with that. Lu Xingyun thought in his heart.

For a long time, just when Ah Xiang was about to go crazy in a hurry. Ah Xiang was laughing like crazy in his heart. But he was still as low as he was on the surface, and he seemed to be a little nervous, which he deliberately showed in order to dispel Lu Xingyun's doubts.

Of course, his purpose was achieved. Because he heard Lu Xingyun's voice calling him in.

"Put the tea down. Lu Xingyun said lightly.

Ah Xiang walked into the door a little nervously, bowed down and put the pot of "Midnight Spring Dawn Tea" in front of Lu Xingyun, and turned to leave.

The "creak" door was shut. It's just that there is no such eerie atmosphere.

At this time, in the room, only Lu Xingyun and the pot of tea remained, the pot of "Midnight Chunxiao Tea". Only Lu Xingyun himself knew that his clothes were already soaked.

Lu Xingyun didn't have the pot of "Midnight Spring Dawn Tea". He was still thinking about what was wrong, but he couldn't say what was wrong.

"Can it work?" said none other than the innkeeper.

Another person with a smile on his face was none other than Ah Xiang. Ah Xiang who delivered tea just now.

"Don't worry. This kind of drug is not an ordinary drug. It's called "Soul Pulling", and it's ranked eighth on my Xu family's drug list. Ah Xiang was a little proud, and said a little proudly.

Ah Xiang was silent for a moment, and then continued, "Don't worry about Lu Xingyun, because of tonight's events, he won't remember anything tomorrow." It's just that my head is a little dizzy. If, he asked. You only say it's the miasma in Cloudtown. ”

Lu Xingyun didn't plan to drink this "midnight spring dawn tea". Because, he couldn't be sure what was in this tea.

However, Ah Xiang's purpose was not to let Lu Xingyun drink tea. Ah Xiang only needs to put the tea in the nearest place to Lu Xingyun.

Just as Ah Xiang finished saying that. Lu Xingyun slowly closed his eyes and lay on the table weakly, with a sweet smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was dreaming.

At this time, Ah Xiang changed into a night suit.

"I'm going to go to Sanssouci Valley, and it will take at least five hours to go back and forth. When Lu Xingyun woke up, he should have almost returned. Ah Xiang disappeared into the night after speaking.
