Chapter 18: Mystery

"Gu Ice Cicada?"

Pan Yu explained: "I saw it in an ancient book, Gu Ice Cicada, it is said to be carved by strange stones outside the sky, with moist inside and beautiful outside, but anyone who gets this thing will suffer a great disaster, and legend has it that the sorcerer of Southern Xinjiang played Gu magic on it. But it's long gone, and I didn't expect it to be abandoned in a paddy field. ”

Xu Xian was speechless and said, "You won't know everything, right?"

"I only know what I know!" Pan Yuzhan smiled. "I was a coincidence, how do you know he picked something up and came home?"

"I'll explain to you later, hey, this brother, your family's illness is probably caused by the ice cicada. ”

The villager was suspicious, afraid that the two of them would deceive him, Xu Xian said: "Do you feel better when you leave home, but feel uncomfortable at home?"

"yes, yes, I've walked more than ten miles to get here, but I feel better. ”

"That's it, hurry back, your family is still poisoned by that ice cicada, and it will be more dangerous to go back a moment later. ”

The villagers hurriedly thanked them and left in a hurry.

Looking at the empty porch, the two finally breathed a sigh of relief, Pan Yu's two dark eyes stared at Xu Xian, Xu Xian was uncomfortable for a while: "I have flowers on my face!"

"Okay, I said, I said. I've heard of his kind of sickness, there is a kind of stone that can emit invisible light, like this sun's light, but this light is very harmful to people. The symptoms were exactly what the man described, and I just happened to hear about them. ”

Pan Yu showed a thoughtful look, "This is really unheard of, but it sounds reasonable, I'm just curious, how does Hanwen know, and the books I have read since I was a child have not written it like this." Crystal eyes stared at Xu Xian.

Xu Xian felt helpless for a while: why can people casually pretend to be forced with modern knowledge, but he has to be subjected to this kind of suspicion. In the face of a confident Pan Yu who has the confidence of "I must have read the books you have read", and a high-IQ teenager with strong insight and insight, it is really full of loopholes for any reason.

Okay, okay, Xu Xian said helplessly: "It was told to me by a Taoist priest who passed by my house when I was a child." ”

Pan Yu stared at Xu Xian and blinked, her long eyelashes flickered a few times, and then she let out a long "oh", which seemed to be barely acceptable.

Xu Xian breathed a sigh of relief.

There was a "crunch", and as the two spoke, the door opened. An old man walked out of the door backwards while making a gesture, his face was red, and his mouth was full of thanks. It seems to have achieved its purpose. The moment the door was closed again, he said along the crack in the door, "Thank you!"

Xu Xian couldn't help but step forward and ask the old man: "Uncle, you're done." ”

"You're done! I'm overjoyed today, overjoyed. Although the old man was reprimanded, there was no unhappiness on his face, and he was full of joy. Xu Xian asked playfully, "I don't know where the joy comes from?"

The old man seems to be tired and someone sends him to bed, and when he is thirsty, he sends water, and this is what he is waiting for. There was no need for Xu Xian to ask, and he immediately gushed out. It turned out that he had a concubine, and he had a big belly recently, which was originally a good thing for him who had never had a queen, but the old man thought that his age was unlikely! As a result, both things got what he wanted, how could he not be happy when he got a son!

Xu Xian weakly leaned his head against the door panel: This fortune teller can not only be used as a weather satellite, but also has the functions of parent-child firmness, X-ray, etc., it is really a must-have product for home travel!

"Look at the long Dao bone fairy wind, the appearance of the crane hair and childish face is a master, after his calculations, it is really an old fairy. The old man said happily, praised the fortune-telling words, and then left happily.

Xu Xian bumped his elbow against Pan Yu beside him and whispered: "Alas, you said, is that kid his?

Pan Yu shrugged and said, "How do I know?" Pan Yu ignored Xu Xian, who had awakened the soul of gossip, and was about to knock on the door, but before his hand touched the door panel, the door opened by itself, and a little girl in a Taoist robe with a double hair on her head smiled and said, "You are the Xiucai from the Hajj Academy! "The little girl is delicate and lovely, and her big black eyes are constantly spinning.

Xu Xian sighed: "Those who can have such apprentices are either men or women. ”

Pan Yu smiled and said, "Besides, who else can there be?"

Xu Xian said disapprerovingly: "This is Mingyu, you are lonely and unheard, in the land of the Southern Barbarians, there is a country that can change men into women, but it has become incomplete, making it neither male nor female, and it is called a ladyboy." Although she disguised herself as a woman just by relying on her exquisite illusions, and she was still a daughter, the words "neither male nor female" still made her heart for no reason.

Pan Yu's footsteps froze slightly, and said with a smile: "Bragging, I'm afraid you haven't even been out of Jiangsu and Zhejiang when you're so big, how do you know." ”

"It was told to me by a Taoist priest who passed by my house when I was a child. Xu Xian's panacea explained that he would make another miraculous achievement, and vowed never to pretend to be forced again.

Pan Yu said with a smile: "Is your house a Taoist temple? There are Taoist priests passing by every day, and all of them can write poetry and writing, and they are well-read and memorized." ”

The two laughed, and as the little girl entered the Taoist temple, the little girl reflexively closed the door, and all the hustle and bustle was turned away in an instant, and the small courtyard was quiet and quiet as if it was in the mountains. Bamboo forests, rockeries, a cool breeze hit. Xu Xian had a vague sense of déjà vu, but he couldn't remember anything.

Turning a bunch of rockeries and crossing a bamboo forest along the stone road, the little girl jumped forward in front, humming an unknown nursery rhyme in her mouth, and the sound of the bamboo forest whistling in the wind, as if the bamboo sea was also swaying.

Pan Yu frowned slightly, and whispered to Xu Xian: "This courtyard can't be so big. "Just now he could see the corner of the fence outside the door, it was just a small Taoist temple. But the two walked in for a full cup of tea, but it wasn't over yet.

Xu Xian was immersed in the feelings of the past, and subconsciously replied: "If it is not illusion, it is true!"

He vaguely didn't know what was touched by this sentence, but for a moment the light of the sun in his soul soared, and as soon as the words fell, he heard the little girl who led the way in front of him shouting: "It's here, it's here!"

The little girl's crisp voice interrupted their thoughts, and when they looked up, they had already arrived in the main hall.

"Master, master, here they are, here they are. The little Taoist priest trotted in to pass the pass, and before entering the door, he turned around and glanced at Xu Xian cautiously.

Xu Xian and Pan Yu looked at each other and smiled, feeling that the trip was worthwhile.

Walking into the hall, there is no "old fairy" with crane hair and childish face, but there is a female Taoist in her twenties, stepping on cloth and cloud shoes, wearing an apricot yellow robe, turning green silk into a bun, inserting a wooden hairpin, and the simple dress has its own dusty atmosphere, coupled with a beautiful face, it really has a bit of fairy taste.

Xu Xianxin said: Is this the legendary little secret?

The female Taoist took the lead in saluting with a gentle smile and said, "Poor Dao Yu Xuanji, I have seen two Taoist friends. My word in the door is Tianjizi. ”

I don't know if it was Xu Xian's illusion, he always felt that although the fish mystery saluted the two, his eyes were always on his face. But instead laughing at herself and feeling good, with a peerless beautiful man like Pan Yu in front of her, what if that woman would pay attention to other men?

Yu Xuanji reported his Dao number in the door, but saw that Xu Xian did not react, but there was a hint of a smile on his lips, and he felt that Xu Xian was unfathomable.

"Is the Taoist Master the Lord here?" asked Pan Yu.

Xu Xian said strangely: "Didn't the old man say that the master here is an old man?"

Yu Xuanji exclaimed: "Mr. Pan has good eyesight. He said to Xu Xian again: "Xu Gongzi, you didn't just say 'non-illusion is true', this is true and illusory, who can say clearly?"

A pair of water-shearing autumn pupils lingered on Xu Xian's face with a gentle smile, giving Xu Xian a sense of spring breeze, but in this gentleness, there was something that made people unable to get closer. That kind of thing is not arrogant and indifferent, not deep and difficult to guess, but a wonderful gesture that stands out from the crowd.

Xu Xian had felt something similar on Pan Yu's body, but it was by no means the same, Pan Yu's eyes were like a deep pool, clear as Xu, but he couldn't see what was contained in the pool water.
