"Thank you, Master Master." Gu Beiqing bowed and retreated, then went down the mountain.
The next day, at dawn, the two set out.
It took about two days to get from Yunxiao Sect to Yujian in Yin Yang Valley. Gu Beiqing chose a small town called Changqing as a place to rest on the way.
The town is not big and there are few tourists. From time to time, a group of children run past on the street, playing and playing. The two stayed in the only hotel on the street.
The waiter busied himself diligently, with a smile on his face, and accepted the few taels of silver that Wu Jing had given him. When the waiter was about to go downstairs, he suddenly and mysteriously told Gu Beiqing: "The two immortals are not locals. You must remember that you can't go out at night if there is no moon. Although the two of you seem to be very skilled in martial arts, you can't go out at night." It’s better to be careful.”
Gu Beiqing was just about to ask, but the waiter waved his hands repeatedly: "Don't ask. If it weren't for the two of you being so polite, I wouldn't risk disappearing to tell you. You can't tell these things to outsiders! Be considerate and considerate, little brother. Come on!" After that, he went downstairs to help again.
Wu Jing glanced at Gu Beiqing tacitly, then closed the door and placed a barrier in the room.
"Beiqing, what do you think?" Wu Jing came forward.
"As long as you don't stop us, it's better to leave it alone." Gu Beiqing took a sip of tea. He didn't want to waste time on irrelevant matters. Wu Jing also stopped talking.
To be honest, Wu Jing wanted to get rid of this scourge, otherwise more innocent people would die. It can be seen that Gu Beiqing doesn't really want to take care of it, and he can't say anything. After all, he doesn't have the strength to take care of it, so he still has to wait for Gu Beiqing to take action.
And coincidentally, there is no moon today.
Wu Jing leaned against the window, looked at the dark sky outside the window, and said, "There really is no one visible outside. Are you really telling the truth?"
"Don't worry about whether it's true or not. We have to go on a journey tomorrow morning. If you don't want to be caught up by the people looking for you, go to bed early." Gu Beiqing raised his head and glanced at Wu Jing.
"You're still staying in my room so late, could it be——" As he said that, Gu Beiqing walked towards Wu Jing.
"Hey, hey, what are you doing? Don't think that just because I can't beat you..." Wu Jing pointed at Gu Beiqing with one hand on her hips and a fan in the other.
Seeing that the fan was touching Gu Beiqing's chest, he was still getting closer. "Oh? That's it?" Gu Beiqing smiled evilly, restlessly picking up a strand of Wu Jing's hair and playing with it with one hand.
The roots of Wu Jing's ears were already red, and the hand holding the fan retracted, stammering and unable to speak a complete sentence.
Gu Beiqing smiled.
This smile made Wu Jing a little annoyed, and he pushed Gu Beiqing away in shame and annoyance, "Humph, I don't want to be the same as you." As he said this, he walked out quickly, and finally slammed the door.
He didn't dare to look at Gu Beiqing again until the door closed.
Gu Beiqing only thought that Wu Jing was a little silly but also very fun, so he also planned to meditate in bed for a night to adjust his state.
About three o'clock in the morning, a gentle "dong" sound in the next room made Gu Beiqing concentrate instantly.
Suddenly realizing something, Gu Beiqing secretly screamed. He immediately pushed open the room next door to Wu Jing, and sure enough, it was empty.
The window was half open and the barrier in the room was broken. Before he could get far, Gu Beiqing immediately jumped out of the window and chased after him. But the strange thing is that after leaving the room, I can't feel the breath of Jing at all.
Gu Beiqing felt this panic for the first time and clenched the sword in his hand a little tighter.
I went back to the room to check, but found that even the quilt was missing from the bed. Gu Beiqing looked at this ordinary wooden bed carefully. Something strange.
The bottom and front of this wooden bed are paneled with wooden boards. It is different from common beds, and it is a bit older. Not long after looking at it, Gu Beiqing smelled some faint fragrance coming from the bed, and then felt a little sleepy. Gu Beiqing was shocked and forced himself to wake up, but it turned out that he was drugged.
What kind of drug is so powerful that even ordinary monks can't escape it?
Gu Beiqing seemed to have discovered something and shattered the bed board.
Sure enough, there turned out to be a passage under the plank. Gu Beiqing threw a traction talisman down. After the talisman was stable, he was teleported directly to the place where the talisman was.
It looks like a secret room.
There were some blue will-o'-the-wisps floating nearby, and skeletons were scattered everywhere on the ground. There weren't many, but it was shocking. The secret room is in the shape of an octagon. If you look closely, you will see that there is a Bagua diagram on the ground. It should have been used to seal something at first, but now the seal will most likely no longer work. What kind of murals are carved on the eight walls are quite clear. Gu Beiqing looked over one by one.
The first story is about a businessman who was led by a ghost in the middle of the night. During the conversation, he accidentally revealed that he was traveling all night to deliver life-saving money to a friend far away. After the ghost led the businessman out, the businessman discovered that the person leading the way had no head. The ghost disappeared, and the last two words were "Jun Ye".
The second side tells the story of a scholar who went to Beijing to take the exam. A scholar was staying in an inn in the capital. In the middle of the night, he saw an arm reaching through a closed window. The scholar thought it was a demon, so he slashed it with a knife and cut off a little finger, but he couldn't find the missing one. finger. The next day, the scholar failed the exam. Three years later, the scholar entered the capital to take the exam again, but this time he did not dare to stay in an inn. In a tea shop, I found a waiter who was a woman and had no little fingers on one hand.
