Chapter 8: The Man in the Green Robe

Under the moonlit night, the sound of the flute is faint, seemingly disconnected, rippling in the village.

Even though the beggar covered his ears, the sound of the flute still flowed in his head. The beggar persevered for a moment, not afraid of the backlash, jumped up, and cursed loudly: "If you don't sleep in the middle of the night, who will you scare? Do you think Lao Tzu is scared? There is a kind of you come to life and let Lao Tzu see, you are not afraid of the evil ghost Lao Tzu is not afraid of ......" Lao Tzu one by one, full of market words, when he scolded until he was excited, he danced with his hands, jumped and jumped. After a while, I was tired of scolding, and then I sat down and gasped.

The sound of the flute was unmoved, still like the wind, filling the night sky. After the beggar scolded, his courage also strengthened a little, and then he listened carefully, and felt that the sound of the flute came from the other side of the waterfall, not the cottage. His mind turned, and he remembered the green-robed man he saw before night, and he was a little more sure in his heart. At that moment, he put the female Taoist into the grass hut and said, "Fairy Gu, you wait here for a while, and wait for me to ask for directions and come back." ”

By the sparse starlight, the beggar cautiously came to the waterfall, only to see a person sitting on a big rock, stroking the flute with both hands, it was the man in the green robe. The sound of water in front of the waterfall is monstrous, like a drum and thunder, but it can't hide the sound of the flute.

The beggar went around to the back of the boulder, climbed up gently, and saw that the man in the green robe looked solemn and was blowing, and it was not easy to interrupt, so he quietly sat down and listened. At first, I was distracted and didn't care, but when I listened quietly, I felt a faint grievance in the sound of the flute, which made people feel sad. Looking at the panoramic view of the village from the big rock, the beggar realized that he remembered the death of the villagers in the house, and he no longer had any fear, and his heart was sour, and he couldn't help but sigh.

After the song was blown, it was already midnight. The green-robed man glanced back at the beggar, saw that his eyes were teary, he was looking at the small village in a daze, nodded slightly, and then waved his hand, and a red arc came out of his hand, piercing the night sky and falling in the small village. In the blink of an eye, the red light was shining, and the village had been engulfed by fiery snakes.

As soon as the beggar came back to his senses, he couldn't help shouting: "Why did you burn down the village?" The beggar hurriedly said: "But, but, can ......" even said three "may", but he couldn't find a reason to refute it. Seeing that the back of the village was also on fire, Yao immediately shouted: "It's broken, the fairy girl is still in the grass hut." As he spoke, he got up and ran.

Qingpao said: "It's okay, the fire can't burn your companions." The beggar paused, but he didn't believe it. The man in the green robe pointed with his hand and said, "Look at this fire, will it burn to the back of the village?" The beggar looked at the fire, and sure enough, he found something strange, but he saw that the flame seemed to be bound by an invisible force, and it only flipped and jumped between the houses, and the small trees in the room were glowing with oily green light, and they were not afraid of the flames at all. The beggar was surprised: "What's going on these days, how have strange things happened all the time." Suddenly, he turned his head and asked the green robe: "Are you a fairy or a goblin?"

The blue-robed man was stunned, and retorted: "What is a fairy? What is a goblin?" The beggar said: "The fairy is a good person who saves the world and helps the weak, and the goblin is a bad person who bullies the weak and does all kinds of evil." The green-robed man suddenly laughed and said, "It turns out that the gods and goblins are all human." The beggar realized that he had said the wrong thing, and said angrily: "Are you a fairy or a monster?" The green-robed man finished laughing, but sighed again, and said: "If you say it, I am half immortal and half demon." The blue-robed man looked at the dancing flames in the night and said, "Because of me, they can live and work here in peace, and it is because of me that they suffer this fate." The beggar exclaimed, "Yes...... You killed them?"

The green-robed man sighed and said, "Although they were harmed by the beast tide, they were no different from what I personally harmed. He sighed again and said to himself, "I like the beautiful scenery here, so every time I come up, I have to come here for a few days." More than 10 years ago, this area was often infested by mountain monsters and wild beasts, and the people were having a hard time, so I secretly helped, drove the beasts out of this place, and made a pact with the beast king that they were not allowed to invade the people again, and they only lived a few years of peaceful life. I thought it would be a paradise forever, but this time...... Hey, I shouldn't have come, but I was careless—how could the power of heaven and earth be resisted by mortals? It seems that the situation is even more serious than imagined, and there is about to be a catastrophe on earth......"

The green-robed man felt sorry for himself, but he heard the beggar in the clouds, and when he was pondering the meaning of his words, he was interrupted by a loud laugh in the sky. The laughter was uninhibited and arrogant, with the meaning of being proud of the world and looking at the sky. The voice laughed, but said: "I really heard a big joke today, a big devil who has killed countless people is here to be compassionate, ha......"

The expression of the green-robed man remained unchanged, as if he already knew that someone was on his side, and said quietly: "Speaking of the ability to kill, compared to the jade hero of the jade forest, Liao sighed to himself. ”

Yu Linfeng turned sharply and shouted, "Liao Wuchen, how many people have you come this time, why did you cause such a huge beast tide?"

The beggar was dizzy from the laughter just now, and almost wanted to gag, but finally calmed down and raised his head to look, only to see a person standing in the night sky.

Yu Linfeng wears a white scarf on his head, a white dress, a long sword across his waist, and no extra decorations, just standing out of thin air, even though the starry night is gloomy, and he can't see his face clearly, but his robe dancing in the wind and the sword spike fluttering in the wind have shown his handsome and immortal posture. As soon as Yu Linfeng opened his mouth, he exuded a fierce and arrogant aura, as if a dazzling light was shooting out from his body, making it impossible to look at it directly.

Liao Wuchen, the man in the green robe, sighed: "The power of heaven and earth is beyond my mortal ability, this time it is still me, but I didn't expect it to cause such a big beast tide." ”

Yu Linfeng said coldly: "Don't pretend in front of me, you have repeatedly violated the agreement, went to the Shangyang Realm to make trouble without permission, and harmed countless people, today I will ambush you, even if Zhao Wufang knows, there is nothing to say." As he spoke, the long sword behind his back flew up on its own, drawing an arc, stopping on his chest, trembling up and down, and emitting bursts of Weng roars.

Liao Wuchen didn't look at Yu Linfeng, put away the flute, and made a gesture in the direction of the village, and then said: "Yu Linfeng, I originally respected you as a bright and upright man, and I wanted to hand you over to friends, but you are a fool, and you don't know right from wrong." People who want to kill me Liao Wuchen are everywhere in the world, but it's a pity that you are not among them. When he said the last sentence, his voice suddenly turned cold, and the cold breath burst out, and his robe was blown away without wind, and a word towel was missing.

The beggar was in Liao Wuchen's cold breath, and suddenly felt cold all over his body. However, this chill is not as cold as falling into an ice cave, but from the bottom of the heart, as if the blood has congealed into ice thorns, pricking every nerve in the body.

Yu Linfeng shouted: "Don't talk nonsense, let you teach me the art of Confucius today!" Holding the sword in his right hand and holding the magic trick in his left hand, the sword man suddenly became one, emitting a dazzling white light that reached the sky, swooping down like a meteor catching the moon.
