The next moment, Luo Mingxiu poked his head out from outside and met the two people inside the room at a glance. He was a little confused: "Master, what happened just now?"
When Su Luochen heard the sound, he didn't say anything. Luo Mingxiu had already walked into the house. Just like when Su Luochen came in, he looked around carefully first, and then his eyes fell on Yu Jiuxu's face.
He looked at her hesitantly for a long time, his brows wrinkled and flattened, flattened and wrinkled again. After a long time, he said, "What did you do? You look so bad?"
"..."
Yu Jiuxu was silent and rolled his eyes angrily. Damn it, what else could he do?
Just as he was talking, Song Wenhui was already standing at the door.
"Tianjun, it's getting late, we should go to the entrance of the village." He reminded him loudly, but Su Luochen was obviously a little distracted.
As if seeing the subtle changes in his expression, Song Wenhui felt a little strange, and his eyes unconsciously moved to Yu Jiuxu aside.
Although Su Luochen didn't say it, intuitively speaking, it must have something to do with this person. However, after all, this was their private matter, and it was hard for him to interfere too much.
After a long moment of silence, Song Wenhui lowered his eyes, turned around, and gestured to go downstairs. He reminded softly: "The disciples are still waiting downstairs and on site, Tianjun, please hurry up."
After saying that, he nodded slightly towards Su Luochen, raised his eyes, gave Luo Mingxiu a "go" look, and went downstairs first.
Luo Mingxiu, who came up from the house to check the situation, was also a little confused. He turned around and followed Song Wenhui and left with suspicion and confusion.
As the two people left, the atmosphere in the room once again solidified. It was so quiet that you could hear the not loud and noisy conversations downstairs outside, but the distance was too far, so you couldn't hear exactly what was said.
After a brief silence, Su Luochen looked at Yu Jiuxu, who still had her eyes lowered. He thought for a moment, and seemed to see that her expression was really bad. He said, "If you really don't want to go, just stay in the inn and rest."
Hearing Su Luochen's voice, Yu Jiuxu gradually came back to his senses and raised his eyes to look at him, but he had already turned and walked towards the door.
For a moment, the panic in her heart was as strong as Guan Yubai's words just now. Almost without thinking, she took steps to catch up. In a daze, when she came to her senses completely, her hand had already pulled It stuck on Su Luochen's sleeve.
He seemed a little surprised, and he paused slightly before turning back to look at her, with a questioning look on his face.
The two looked at each other, and before he could speak, Yu Jiuxu spoke: "I'm going, don't leave me."
Somehow, there was an inexplicable pleading in her eyes, mixed with unconcealable anxiety and panic, which was different from the time when she acted coquettishly with him and wanted to eat.
This was also the first time that Su Luochen had met her gaze like this. In just a moment, his heart felt as if a sharp thorn had been pierced through it, and even his breathing was stagnant.
Su Luochen's eyes darkened slightly, but he did not break away from her hand holding his sleeve, but he was even more certain in his heart that the demonic energy he felt just now was not an illusion, it should be real, and someone had come to see her.
When he thought of this, Su Luochen felt upset. Although he knew that judging from her performance, the other party was probably unhappy, but he felt uncomfortable. He was obviously so vigilant, so why was he still Got taken advantage of?
While thinking, he gently lowered his eyes, covering up the emotions in his eyes, only responded softly with a "hmm", and then left the room with Yu Jiuxu.
Walking on the spacious corridor, Su Luochen suddenly stopped. Yu Jiuxu was following behind him. She was a little distracted. She didn't pay attention and almost bumped into him. She stopped in time and her footsteps suddenly stopped. After a pause, he took two steps back and looked up at him with some confusion.
The two looked at each other again. Su Luochen was silent for a moment, then turned to look at her with complicated eyes: "Where is Taoyu?"
Taoyu?
Yu Jiuxu reacted for a while, groped around on his body, and finally found the thing from his arms and handed it to him: "Here."
Su Luochen didn't say anything, just stretched out his hand to take it, then turned around and returned to the house. He sat cross-legged in front of the table, placed the peach jade in his hand on the table, took out the dagger in his sleeve and lightly cut his finger, drawing blood. The beads condensed from the wound and were dripped on the jade.
In just the blink of an eye, the blood was completely absorbed by Taoyu. Su Luochen put the dagger aside, intertwined his fingers to form a formation, and landed on Taoyu.
When the formation merged with it, a dazzling light accompanied by the released mana illuminated the entire room.
Yu Jiuxu stood aside and watched. When the dazzling light disappeared and the surroundings gradually returned to calm, Su Luochen stood up and handed the peach jade back to her: "Put it away and never leave it at any time."
Yu Jiuxu carefully reached out and took it. The moment Taoyu touched her palm, she seemed to feel the subtle spiritual power being injected into her body.
The magic in this thing has become stronger...
Will this prevent Wan Chuyue and the others from getting closer?
Although she trusted Su Luochen, she also had enough understanding of Wan Chuyue and Shen Jingzi.
Although peach jade is indeed used to ward off evil spirits, it is probably useless to a demon cultivator with too strong magic power. But one thing is certain, this thing can cover up the evil energy on her body.
It was indeed useful at first, but as she used her magic more and more, her own scent far outweighed the effect of Taoyu, so she was easily found.
Yu Jiuxu thought, looking at the peach jade in her hand, she felt a little confused, why did he give her this? I always feel a little strange, but I can't say why it's strange at the moment.
When she raised her eyes, she found that Su Luochen was about to walk out of the room. She was stunned and hurriedly chased after him.
When they arrived at the entrance of the village, the place where the incident occurred had been surrounded by disciples of the Immortal Sect, and many villagers who were joining in the fun stood around and stood watching.
When Yu Jiuxu and Su Luochen arrived, Fengyun Shu led a group of disciples to block a passage from the crowd. When everyone stepped forward, they saw three corpses covered by white cloth, neatly placed on the Together.
According to the villagers who found them, these three people suddenly fell down while working in the fields and never got up again. What's weird is that the three people fell down almost at the same time.
After understanding the general situation, Su Luochen followed Fengyun Shu and the disciples waiting on the side stepped forward and lifted off the white cloth covering the faces of the three of them in turn.
Su Luochen knelt down to check the situation. Yu Jiuxu stood aside and frowned slightly. Looking at the condition of the body, he really didn't want to think that it had just died. Not only on the face, but even on the arms, there were signs of There is slight decay.
But if you look closely, it seems different from other corpses. It's just that the skin has begun to crack. It doesn't look like normal decay. The cracked places look like hard and dry loess that has dried for a long time.
There was no blood flowing out, and there was not even any smell of decay. This seemed to be no ordinary way of death, but it was also different from the previous method where all the flesh and blood were sucked away, leaving only skin and bones.
What the hell are they doing?
When Yu Jiuxu was confused, Mu Wenlan on the side came over in time. When everyone's attention was focused on the strange corpse, she approached Yu Jiuxu and asked her softly: "How is it? What can you see? ?"
Hearing this, Yu Jiuxu was startled, and slowly turned his head to look at her. The two looked at each other. Maybe Mu Wenlan's tone was too sure, which made Yu Jiuxu feel dazed for a moment, and he didn't know. Is it because of Guan Yubai's incident that she always thinks that others know her true identity?
While thinking, Yu Jiuxu shook his head slightly. This time it was not that he was deliberately hiding it, but that he did not notice it for the time being.
