With the New Year and the New Year, Xiaoxue seemed to sense that Qingsang County was immersed in the joy of the New Year, and finally stopped for a moment and even disappeared without a trace, along with Xiaoyu.
The sky has not yet begun to dawn, and the entire Qingsang County has become lively. Firecrackers are crackling, and every household is preparing to welcome the arrival of the new year.
She knelt in front of the hall. The light in the hall was dim, only the blue-green flames on the wall were beating, and the shadows reflected on the wall were even more shuddering.
There were several green-faced and fanged demons crawling around her, biting her constantly, but her hands and feet were shackled and she was unable to resist. She trembled desperately and struggled back, squirming for help, but her throat was so dry and hoarse that she couldn't make a sound, and her mouth opened and closed, to no avail.
All he could do was watch her body being bitten continuously. The blood had not yet dried up, but it quickly recovered. Those fierce ghosts even revealed their greed, tearing and swallowing their food even harder, and even fought over it.
Countless horrifying skeleton hands stretched out from the void, taking advantage of the evil ghost's unpreparedness, desperately grabbing her throat and sucking her blood.
Her neck was about to be broken, and the smell of blood surged into her heart, like a lump in her throat, unable to swallow.
A stream of heat flowed down her neck, and blood filled her nasal cavity, making her feel sick.
It hurt, it hurt so much that she felt like she was going to die. There is no part of her body that is not incomplete, but there is no part that is not healthy. This endless pain with no end in sight made her breathless.
But the fear from deep inside, the fear of human survival instinct is even more powerless. A despair of not being able to survive or die uncontrollably filled the dilapidated and bloody stumps...
Master Yun Chu hid in the quilt and shivered. She trembled, and her fingers tugged at the clothes on her chest. The area was throbbing like a spasm, as if it was poisonous to her internal organs. She still had lingering fears, and the discomfort made her unable to breathe smoothly, so she had to open her mouth and take a few deep breaths of cold air.
Her face was hot and covered with a thin layer of sweat. Master Yun Chu touched her neck, and the clothes behind her neck were soaked. However, my hands and feet were extremely cold and I couldn't warm them up no matter how I covered them.
The calming effect of sandalwood has been minimal these days, and nightmares are frequent, and they are all of the same scene, making it very uncomfortable.
The only time she dreamed of a face, but she couldn't remember it when she woke up, and now she had a severe headache.
I feel very sleepy, but I still can't fall asleep.
Master Yun Chu closed her eyes, but frightening images always appeared in her mind. She was immersed in the scene and it was as real as her own experience, as if she felt the pain in her dream.
In a state of confusion, Master Yun Chu fell asleep again...
I don’t know how long it took, the east turned white, and the sky gradually became brighter.
I was sleepy, and there were hurried knocks on the door outside.
Master Yun Chu covered his ears tightly and tried his best to shrink back into bed.
Ah, it's so noisy... The excitement outside seemed to break down her door and rush in. Yun Chushi had no choice but to get up amidst continuous yawns.
"Stop pushing."
Master Yun Chu had a bitter look on her face, as if she was a resentful woman. She would be shocked just by looking at her. After washing herself, she patted her cheek hard and finally woke up.
The cold wind was biting, and the big red lantern hanging on the corner of the eaves was swaying due to the wind, as if it was about to fall down at any time.
There was a clang on the door, and the person who opened the door was a little angry. Zi Sangning, who was leaning on the door, stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Master Yun Chu: "It's already three o'clock in the morning, how can you, a little monster, sleep like this?"
"Celestial Master Zisang, don't bully the demon too much." Master Yunchu's resentment was soaring to the sky, and he immediately broke out: "Celestial Master Zisang, we demons also have dignity, okay?"
What a bully!
He gets up in the morning to practice kung fu, and she keeps him company.
He meditated at noon and she accompanied him.
He was reading in silence while she kept him company.
Once she resists, she will be put into a gourd where she can't see her fingers and let him tease her.
She is just a little demon, a carefree little demon who does nothing, but she does not need to be given such a big responsibility.
She really wanted to punch that dead Heavenly Master in the face, and she couldn't bear it for a moment.
"Dignity?" Zi Sangning spat out two words, his eyes fell on her, full of disbelief.
"Yes." Master Yun Chu vowed to die and his eyes widened in anger.
"Oh, that's it." Zi Sangning said calmly, shaking a jade gourd in his hand.
"I, you..." Master Yun Chu immediately stopped talking and put on a respectful posture.
"Celestial Master Zisang, no matter what your orders are, I will never dare to go west if you tell me to go east."
"The dignity of you monsters is really... nothing to mention." Zi Sangning pinned the gourd on her waist in a conspicuous place, and Master Yun Chu felt it was very dazzling.
"I was wrong, a big mistake. I have changed my ways. I really am not a human being." She was not a human being in the first place. It was fine. It was not a scolding of herself.
This is undoubtedly someone's fault.
Zi Sangning pretended to leave: "Let's go to a restaurant."
Master Yun Chu hurriedly grabbed him: "Are you offering any money?"
Zi Sangning raised his eyebrows and smiled: "What do you think?"
Zi Sangning strode out.
She is so talkative. That day the master didn’t even have any money, so she couldn’t help but pick up any pot.
If you accidentally poke his sore spot, wouldn't you be asking for trouble?
Master Yun Chu lowered his eyebrows and said in a submissive manner: "Okay, I'll go here, little one."
"If you dare to eat alone, I will fight you to the death." After spending her money, Master Yun Chu could only mutter and curse.
Zi Sangning stopped and turned around: "What did you say?"
Master Yun Chu sneered and denied repeatedly: "Nothing, nothing, Heavenly Master Zisang, you heard wrong."
Zi Sangning tapped the gourd on his waist and pretended to take out the talisman: "But I seem to have heard that you are going to fight with me?"
Master Yun Chu hurriedly tried to persuade him: "Master Zisang, don't be impulsive. A gentleman talks but doesn't do anything. If you have something to say, discuss it carefully. Maybe it's early in the morning. You misunderstood."
Zi Sangning took back the talisman and said, "Is it true that I misunderstood?"
"Indeed it is."
Zi Sangning didn't answer her and left on her own.
He walked in front, with slow steps and a bright smile, followed by the girl who hurriedly caught up behind him, talking nonstop.
The ground was covered with white snow, and there were two pairs of footprints, one big and one small.
The clouds are rolling and the sky is clear at dawn. The blue-gray sky is hazy.
It's time for the snow to fall again.
But so what?
Li Sanniang's food diary.
The sun is just right, falling slightly on the earth, the noodle stall is full of fireworks, and the diners are in twos and threes, smacking their noodles contentedly.
The hot tea poured down, the steam was thick, and the water vapor that escaped upward covered half of Master Yun Chu's face, making him blush.
Master Yun Chu obediently poured the hot tea and respectfully handed it to Zi Sang Ning: "Tian Master Zi Sang, drink it."
"The world is not peaceful. It's just the new year and something happened again." Zhang San sighed silently, picked up the noodles and ate them.
"No, before dawn, the victim was beating the drum to redress his grievances." Li Si rubbed two chopsticks against each other to remove the wood burrs on the chopsticks.
"What are you talking about? Everyone says it's a ghost who kills someone. Could it be that it's not a ghost?" Li Si lowered his voice, tilted his head towards Zhang San, and looked at him: "A few days ago, Yan Shaotou Isn’t that what happened just now?”
Li Si stared at Zhang San and wiped his neck.
"Why are you looking at me like that? It's so weird." Zhang San felt goosebumps on his skin when he was stared at. He shrank his neck and felt a cold air coming from behind. He quickly looked around.
"Hey, coward..."
"Brother, what happened?" Master Yun Chu, who was sitting next to him, asked.
Although she is a demon, she still cares about Qingsang County. After all, it is her place of refuge.
Li Si put down his chopsticks, looked at the two of them, and then started chatting with Master Yun Chu.
"Little sister, you don't know something. The official has invited many Taoist priests to perform rituals a few days ago, saying that he has been unclean recently. And..." Li Si suddenly stopped speaking, raised his head and looked around, and then He glanced at the three of them.
And what? Master Yun Chu turned sideways, stretched his neck, and waited curiously for the next step.
She also took the time to wink at Zi Sang Ning, with a cunning look in her eyes.
However, Zi Sangning didn't answer and drank a cup of tea by himself.
Li Sisha said matter-of-factly, "The Taoist priest went to catch ghosts in the middle of the night, and was hanged on the mountainside. But when the woodcutter went to chop wood, he found that he had been dead for several days, and that he seemed to be covered with maggots."
"Have you been dead for a long time? What's weird?" Master Yun Chu turned to the table where Zhang San and Li Si were sitting, his big eyes full of doubts: "Didn't it just happen a few days ago...that maggots appeared so quickly?"
"Isn't that right? I heard that the Taoist priest didn't look like he had just died. He looked like he had been dying for many years but his body did not rot. Moreover, the blood stains on the ground looked like they had been there for many years." Li Sida clapped his hands and spoke anxiously. Point: "How could he have been dead for so long? So, everyone said that this ghost is very powerful. It specializes in sucking human blood. Even Taoist priests can't stand it."
There was a burst of sighs from the crowd, oh no, a burst of sighs from the three of them.
"This ghost is so powerful, what happened to the official?" Zhang San was afraid again, but his curiosity was too much, so he still asked.
Li Si waved his hand: "How can I know this?"
Zhang San thought deeply and sighed: "It seems that I have to go to Pudu Temple to burn incense, add some sesame oil money, and ask the Buddha to bless everyone."
Master Yun Chu sighed deeply, why are these days so uneventful.
"Brother, who reported the crime?"
Li Si spoke: "The sufferer claimed to be a relative of the owner of the noodle stall on East Street. He said that the old couple stayed away all night and lived across the street from the second son of the Zhang family on West Street."
"The second eldest son of the Zhang family?" Master Yun Chu raised his head in confusion and asked, his heart skipping a beat, as if something was blocking him.
"Well, yes, it's Zhang Laoer who has a sharp head and a sharp face." Li Si nodded in agreement.
"That's not...!" Master Yun Chu's hand shook and her chopsticks fell to the ground. She didn't have time to think about it and rushed out in a hurry.
"Hey...what are you doing, so anxious?" Li Si called.
Zhang San was also confused: "I don't know, there must be something urgent at home."
"Lady boss, pay the bill." Zi Sangning put down a piece of silver and hurriedly caught up.
"Young people are not as calm as us, they are always so irritable." Li Si shook his head and smiled, then shouted: "Madam boss, they are all the same price, why do I have so much noodle soup?" It looks less than Zhang San’s? Not fair!”
Zhang San nodded in agreement: "That's right, not stable at all."
Boss lady: "Come on, come on..."
