I lowered my head and walked slowly, and I caught a sideways glimpse of the young man's angry face, and Qian Yao hid in the bead egg and hugged her head and pretended to sleep.

"The parrot has changed into Sister Icelake. I whispered.

The young man frowned, and snorted: "The next time I meet those two rotten birds, I will pluck out their feathers and roast them for you to eat." ”

"Ah! I'm a vegetarian. My eyes widened in fright and I covered my mouth.

"Hmph!" the boy couldn't help but smile when he looked at me with a frightened expression.

Stretched out his hand and led me through the forest with a smile on his face.

After the ten-mile stream winding peach blossom field, the peach blossoms are early gone, and the trees are falling with huge pink and green peaches. The front of the eyes is open, a majestic city can be seen in the distance, all kinds of vegetables are planted beside the city road, there are cattle and sheep grazing on the hillside in the distance, there are young children playing and playing, there are farmers in the farmland waiting for seedlings and harvesting vegetables in the field, and there are woodcutters carrying firewood on the ridges of the fields. There are mulberry women picking mulberry leaves, and green tea leaves are planted on the hillside with the fragrance of wild stems.

The young man took me by the hand and came to the city gate, the high city gate was engraved with the words "Xiyun crossing the moon", there were soldiers guarding the city tower, and there were soldiers on both sides of the city gate to check the business travel. The boy took out a silver waist card, which was engraved with "Flowing Moon", and the soldiers lined up to send the boy off. The boy took me by the hand and went straight into the city.

"Your name is Liuyue?" I asked, "My name is Shuoyue, and your name seems to be the same family as mine." ”

"Well, you can call me Liuyue in the future, you don't need to call him hey. Liuyue smiled with a red face.

When I entered the city, there was a lively scene in the city, there were all kinds of shops on both sides of the street, there were delicatessen, some sold silk and satin cloth, some calligraphy and painting, handicrafts, some sold wine, the streets were lined with all kinds of pedestrians, and BMW incense cars came and went.

The boy and I were about to cross a small bridge side by side, when we heard a commotion behind us, and the voices of people were exclaiming, panicked. The boy and I turned around and hurried to the crowded place, squeezed into the crowd, and found that there was a middle-aged man in silk clothes and silk pants writhing on the ground in a silk shop next to the road, his slightly fat and stout body was like a boneless, his face was pale, his limbs were limp and squirming, his head was struggling upward, his eyes were blood-red, and he could only make a "hiss" sound when he wanted to say something with his mouth open and his teeth were weak. There was a crying woman kneeling next to her and a pair of frightened seven or eight-year-old boys who couldn't cry, the boy and I were surprised, and after a while a few soldiers came in and wanted to drag people away, the woman jumped up and howled to prevent the soldiers from dragging people, and was pushed away by a soldier brutely and rolled to the corner of the cabinet that stood on the street, the woman looked at the corner of the street door with blood on her forehead, and suddenly pounced on Liuyue with both hands, hugging Liuyue's legs: "Third young master, please save him, save him, if there is no him, my child and I will not be able to live." ”

The soldiers saw Liuyue kneeling and saluting, and took the lead and said, "Third young master, this is the order of the palace master, if such a situation occurs in the city, people must be taken away, and they must not stay in the city." ”

"No, no, no, don't take him away, the shopkeeper who had an accident a few days ago was taken away and never came back, please save him." The woman fell at the feet of the moon, and wept terribly.

Liuyue raised her eyes and looked at the leader of the soldiers: "Li Hu, what's going on?"

Li Hu, who took the lead, bowed his head and replied: "Third young master, this kind of strange thing has indeed occurred frequently in the city these days, people are fine during the day, but when it is close to evening, someone will suddenly become an insect-like state, unable to walk, boneless in the body, but cannibalism, if he is not taken away, I am afraid that the life of this family will be lost at night, and he will eat it." ”

"Oh?"

"A few days ago, Lao Liang of the bun shop had this symptom, his family did not let people go to make trouble, I had to put people in his home temporarily to wait for observation, who knew that the next day I took people to Lao Liang's house again to find his mother, wife and children have been eaten by him and died, when we entered the door, Lao Liang was tearing the flesh of his wife and children, and when he saw us, he jumped up from the ground and bit us, when the soldier Li Jia was bitten by him, he also became a worm that night, endangering the military camp, several soldiers were also unfortunately poisoned, this disease is very dangerous, the palace master strictly ordered that once someone has this symptom, immediately see the escort out of the city, there must be no mistake。 ”

Liuyue leaned over to help Aunt Zhou, who was sobbing on the ground, and comforted her gently: "Don't be afraid, take good care of the child first, you see that the child has been frightened, I will definitely save him, don't worry." ”

Aunt Zhou burst into tears, looked at Liuyue for a long time, let go of her hand, Liuyue pulled me out of the crowd, I looked back and saw Aunt Zhou, who was full of vicissitudes of life, hugging her two sons, with dust rolling on her face, looking at the back of the young man with sad tears in her eyes, casting infinite hopeful eyes.

"This is the eighth case of such a thing in the city, the day before yesterday it was the old Liang of the bun shop, yesterday it was the shopkeeper of the tea house Wu, today it is the shopkeeper of the silk village Zhou, I heard that the soldiers in the city also have such a strange disease, and I don't know who will suffer in the future. The onlookers sighed in fear.

"Yes, there are shopkeepers Liu, shopkeepers Qiu, and farmer Lao Litou, in the past few days, people have become like this one after another, and I don't know what the reason is for this strange thing, it's too worrying, how will I live in the future." ”

"Yes, this Xiyun Palace hasn't given us an answer yet, I don't know what's going on, and it's making people panic. ”

"It's been so many days that the palace hasn't replied, and this kind of terrible thing is still happening, do you say that the Xiyun Palace Lord is not capable of solving this kind of thing?

"So what are we going to do? I just came here because it was a paradise, but who knew that it has now become a city of horrors. ”

......

Behind me, there was a crowd of speculation and complaints, and Liuyue pulled me to hurry towards the small bridge with a solemn face.
