046: Late Night Thief
Han Xiao saw a team of about a dozen people, all dressed in fresh clothes and festive clothes, only a small white flower was inserted in the sideburns, with a solemn expression, carrying a sedan chair, and came in a hurry. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
At this time, Xian'er heard the voice and also came out of Yue'e's room. Han Xiao saw that her face was sad and shook her hand to show comfort. The two didn't want to see outsiders, so they nodded to their parents-in-law and flashed into a small room on the other side. Through the cracks in the windows and doors, observe the actions of the people outside.
I saw a few people carrying the sedan chair and parked the sedan chair in the middle of the courtyard. Then a half-aged woman with blush and lips, dressed in a bright red colored dress, walked all the way to the house like a duck playing in the water.
Seeing her father-in-law and mother-in-law, the old woman said in a low voice: "I said that you two have earned it, I said something unpleasant, Miss Yue'e is alive, how much dowry can you get?"
He put ten gold coins into the old woman's hand and said, "This is the remaining half." Don't worry, I'm looking for a good in-law for Miss Yue. Then he said, "Then I'll take the people away?"
Father-in-law Fan and mother-in-law were speechless, and the two old men held their hands tightly, relying on each other's strength to support each other, otherwise they would fall.
The old woman beckoned into the courtyard, and two silent men walked in quickly. The old woman snorted, and the two men lifted the curtain and entered the room of the Yue'e girl, wrapped the Yue'e girl in the quilt and carried it out, and quickly put it into the sedan chair.
When the mother-in-law saw her daughter being taken away like this, she finally couldn't help but be sad, choked up "girl", shook her body, and wanted to chase her out.
The old woman hurriedly held down her mother-in-law with one hand and said, "You can be clear!"
The mother-in-law burst into tears, swallowed her sorrow, and said, "Please, where is my girl going to be taken?" ”
At this time, the people in the courtyard, lifting the sedan chair, were already preparing to leave. The old woman glanced at it and said in a low voice: "Over there in Baiseji, a big place, an adult's house!" she shook off her mother-in-law's hand and trotted all the way to follow the sedan chair.
The group walked away in an instant.
Father-in-law Fan and mother-in-law sat down on the stool in a dejected manner, and the mother-in-law couldn't help crying again. Father-in-law Fan wiped the old tears in his eyes, suddenly remembered, and said, "Where is Engong?" When they went to another hut to look, Han Xiao and Lin Xian'er had disappeared without a trace. On the table, there was a small pile, dozens of yellow gold coins.
Lin Xian'er and Han Xiao rode on the Huoyun Horse, looking at the carriage driving in a hurry not far ahead, they couldn't help but sigh infinitely, and said: "Boss Lin once gave me a medicine scripture, which is the refining method of some pills, if I had mastered it earlier and refined a pill that brought the dead back to life, maybe I would have been able to save Miss Yue." ”
Han Xiao comforted her and said: "People can't be resurrected after death, sometimes the destiny is like this, and it can be reversed by non-human beings." The elixir is to be refined, but you should not be so sad. ”
Lin Xian'er looked at the carriage and said, "Strange, these people seem to have been prepared for a long time, and when they left Fanjia Village, the carriage stopped outside." It's like a veteran of business. ”
Han Xiao said: "They want to take people to Baiseji, so naturally they can't rely on carrying a sedan chair." Besides, I think they really live on this. You don't see that red woman, you look like a veteran. ”
Lin Xian'er sighed and said, "It's really a big world, and there are no surprises. I really can't imagine that in this world, there are a group of people who make money by telling matchmakers to the dead. ”
Han Xiao diverted the topic and said, "You said that Boss Lin gave you a copy of the Medicine Sutra and didn't teach you the method of alchemy?"
Lin Xian'er said: "Just like a person who wants to become a monk, in addition to talent, he also needs to work very hard. This is true of everything in the world. What's more, if you want to become an alchemist, it is ten times more difficult than usual. ”
Han Xiao said, "I believe that you will definitely be able to become a very good alchemist. ”
Lin Xian'er took a deep breath, saw the carriage in front of her turn into a small road, and said to Han Xiao: "It seems that they are going to rest again, there must be a market town ahead, let's go eat something too." ”
Han Xiao nodded, urged the fire cloud horse, beckoned the iron mastiff, and whistled unhurriedly behind. After learning that the team transporting the ghost bride was going to Baiseji, Han Xiao and Lin Xian'er decided to follow them. They are worried that they don't know how to go to Baiseji.
That's it, followed for three days. But he only walked seven or eight hundred miles. Han Xiao couldn't help but be a little anxious. I don't know when I'll be able to get there. This is tantamount to a kind of torture for him, who is eager to fly over, grab the enemy as soon as possible, and save his family.
On the fourth day, in the middle of the afternoon, a dark cloud suddenly drifted in the blue sky, and then the wind blew in all directions, and the trees on both sides of the road swayed with the wind, making a sound like a ghost crying wolf. It's going to rain a lot. Seeing this, the carriage with Yue'e's body in front of it kicked and galloped. Before the heavy rain fell, we drove into a quaint town and settled in the backyard of a small shop.
Han Xiao and Lin Xian'er had no choice, so they had to rent another courtyard, and after the rain passed, they would continue to travel tomorrow.
The wind howled and thundered, the lightning danced, and it rained heavily. Han Xiao and Lin Xian'er sat in the room, looked out the window, and said with a smile: "Looking at this celestial phenomenon, it seems that there is a master who has crossed the catastrophe." ”
Lin Xian'er glanced at Han Xiao in surprise and said, "How do you know that there will be such a celestial phenomenon when a master crosses the tribulation?"
Han Xiao said dumbly: "I don't know." ”
Lin Xian'er glanced at her and said, "Why have you said something inexplicable recently." After saying that, he stopped caring about him and immersed himself in that medicine scripture.
Han Xiao was bored, so he had to practice cross-legged on the bed. After a while, he also fell into silence, feeling that the breath in his body was flowing and full of energy. There are faint signs of the three turns of the battle spirit.
I don't know how long it took, but it was already the middle of the night. A storm passed, leaving a light rain between the heavens and the earth, and there was silence. Lin Xian'er was watching the medicine under the oil lamp, and suddenly there was a "pop" outside the window. The sound is crisp, like a pebble.
Lin Xian'er stood up in shock, and saw that Han Xiao was still meditating, so she blew out the oil lamp, flashed to the window, opened a crack, and saw that the moon was dark and the wind was high outside, and on the roof opposite, there was a vaguely grown figure, beckoning here.
Xian'er was overjoyed and said in a low voice: "Brother Xiao, is that a drunkard?"
Han Xiao was also alert, and when he heard Xian'er's words, the two jumped out of the window together, performed the method of collecting medicine and singing, and chased the figure all the way away.
After chasing for a while, Han Xiao said in a low voice: "Do you think it's Wang Da Hammer?"
Xian'er said: "I see that the body shape is somewhat similar, and I can't see it clearly if I am too far away......"
Han Xiao frowned and said, "It's not like ......."
As he spoke, he saw the figure in front of him come to a dense forest, and his body shook, and he disappeared.
Han Xiao said: "Quick!"
The two of them exerted force under their feet, like birds, and both threw themselves into the woods.
The forest is lush and dark. Han Xiao and Lin Xian'er moved quickly between the treetops, and in an instant they came to the middle of the woods and stopped suddenly. I saw that in a large open space in the middle of the woods, there were barren grass and rocks, and many tombs were rising unevenly, which turned out to be a mass grave. And the figure from before is gone.
Han Xiao and Lin Xian'er jumped down from the treetops, holding the ghost head chop in their hands, and carefully investigated. The anger is eerie and terrifying.
Suddenly, Lin Xian'er screamed and threw herself into Han Xiao's arms.
Han Xiao's hand was quick, one hand grabbed Lin Xian'er's waist, and the ghost head in the other hand slashed out like a lightning flint. Blood flashed, and one arm fell into the mud.
Lin Xian'er saw that this arm was sticking out of a tomb at her feet, and she couldn't help but turn pale with fright.
Han Xiao held Lin Xian'er tightly in his arms, looked around with a gloomy expression, and said in a deep voice: "It's a hero, don't pretend to be a ghost." Come out and fight me to the death!" As soon as he finished speaking, a tomb on his side suddenly grew. Followed by a figure catapulting out from below, with a strange-shaped blade in his hand, he swung out a blue light and slashed at Han Xiao and the others.
As soon as Han Xiao dodged this slash, several figures also burst out in the tombs on the left and right sides of the front and back, surrounding them in the middle. These people were all covered in black robes, and they couldn't see each other, only a pair of eyes that shone with a ghost, like wild ghosts.
Han Xiao said: "Who are you? Are you sent by the Meng family? Don't pretend to be a ghost here!"
The man in black made a strange sound in his throat, like a zombie grinding his teeth, and his body shape was wrong, and he rushed towards Han Xiao and Lin Xian'er in his heart.
Han Xiao let out a long roar, stepped on the medicine song, and slashed the second volume of the nine volumes of the crazy knife in his hand "Yunyong", a piece of knife light, weaving a knife net, blocking the man in black from the outside.
The man in black couldn't attack for a while, but Han Xiao couldn't kill him either. Stalemate with each other.
Lin Xian'er suddenly let out a low snort, "Brother Xiao help me!" Seeing the weaker one of the black-clothed men, he suddenly flew up from Han Xiao's arms and pounced like a star pill.
The man in black didn't expect this, and the odd-shaped blade in his hand slowed down significantly, and then quickly swept towards Lin Xian'er's head. Seeing this, Han Xiao called out "Sister Xian'er", and the latter came first, flashing next to the man in black like a ghost, raising the knife in his hand, and splitting him in half.
Seeing that his companion was killed, the rest of the black-clothed people obviously paused, Han Xiao saw the opportunity, danced wildly with the ghost head in his hand, and sang the medicine collection song under his feet, and cut down two more in an instant.
A man in black saw Han Xiao slashing and slashing frantically, Lin Xian'er was alone, quietly walked behind her, and suddenly rushed over, the strange blade in his hand drove to her neck, he laughed, and made a bird-like voice in his throat, and said, "Death!"
Han Xiao paused for a moment and settled on the spot. Seeing this, several black-clothed people behind him took the opportunity to pounce on him.
Lin Xian'er suddenly raised her arms, carried up her lifelong cultivation, and slammed into the chest of the person behind her.
Hearing only a bang, this person was put in Lin Xian'er's chest by his arms, a mouthful of blood spurted, and the whole person flew out as far away as a wood and fell to the ground. His chest collapsed, and he was out of breath.
"Be careful!" Lin Xian'er hurriedly shouted when she saw that Han Xiaoleng was on the ground, and the black-clothed man's blade behind him had already been slashed.
Han Xiao couldn't help but be excited when he saw Lin Xian'er killing the enemy mightily. Hearing the wind behind him, he lowered his waist, and at the same time, the ghost head in his hand swept up a gust of wind and swept out. Two screams, four legs fell to the ground, and the two sneak attackers fell into the mud crying wolf.
Seeing this, the other two men in black jumped on the grave, and the other threw themselves on a tree trunk, and they all disappeared.
Han Xiao was stunned by their escape. Lin Xian'er also rushed over, and said dumbfounded: "Nether Ghost Soldier!"
Han Xiao's eyes flickered, the ghost head slashed, and the tip of the knife pointed at the two captives who had broken their legs and were mourning on the ground, and said, "Say, who sent you? Are you ghost soldiers?"
The two men in black glanced at each other, and suddenly their necks stiffened, and they died motionless on the spot.
Lin Xian'er rushed over, tore open their black robes, and saw two miserable white faces, with a line of black and purple blood flowing from the corners of their mouths. "Suicide by taking poison!" looked at Han Xiao, both of them had palpitations.
Han Xiao searched them, found nothing, and said to Lin Xian'er: "This place is not suitable for a long time, let's go back quickly!"
As soon as I came out of the woods, I saw a huge black shadow rushing into the sky in the night. Han Xiao said: "It's an iron mastiff!"
Lin Xian'er said: "The iron mastiff is in the stable. Why are you chasing after you?"
Han Xiao said: "Let's go back first!"
At this time, the cold rain gradually increased. Two people and a mastiff, back to the hotel.
When passing by the backyard, Lin Xian'er paid attention, and suddenly said, "Where is the carriage?"
When Han Xiao looked at it, the carriage that had been parked here to transport Yue'e's body was gone. Rushing into the house, the grooms were gone.
Han Xiao said: "Chase!" The two rushed to the stables and went to lead the Huoyun Pony, but they saw that it was empty, and at some point, the Huoyun Pony was gone.
