That night, a waning moon was in the sky, and the clear and soft moonlight spread over the earth.
It's the time when everything is quiet.
At the same time that Sikong Zhenjiu came to see Sarutobi Sun and Moon, a woman as graceful as a willow came to a bulrush near the Red River Valley alone, carrying a wooden box containing food and water.
The soft and beautiful moonlight poured down, reflecting the young woman's gleaming white and tender face.
It’s Qin Mengyao!
As usual, Qin Mengyao put the prepared food and some water into the wooden box, then came here alone with the wooden box, then placed it on a square stone and turned around without hesitation. leave. But this time it seemed to be slightly different from the past. After Qin Mengyao put down the wooden box, she did not leave in a hurry, but stood quietly aside, looking around with beautiful eyes.
It seemed that he was waiting for the mysterious person who came to receive the meal.
At this moment, a very strange strong wind suddenly roared towards Qin Mengyao.
The reason why this strong wind is so strange is that it comes very suddenly without any warning in advance. Moreover, it was accompanied by a heart-stopping soul pressure that made Qin Mengyao unable to breathe, and a sense of suffocation originating from the soul arose spontaneously.
But Qin Mengyao could only hold back and look sideways, her beautiful eyes fixed on the direction of the strong wind, and her expression did not seem to change at all.
Qin Mengyao's waist-length hair, as bright as dark clouds, danced in the wind. This makes Qin Mengyao, who is already as beautiful as ordinary people, even more mature charm and style.
Immediately afterwards, in Qin Mengyao's sight, a thick white smoke swept towards her with the wind. Like a flood that bursts a bank, submerging and swallowing everything here...
After a while, the white smoke gradually dissipated... After the white smoke dissipated, a slender white figure slowly appeared in front of her.
This is the figure of an adult man. He is wearing a relatively ordinary white suit. He has the same head, two shoulders, one pair of hands, and two legs. He seems to be no different from others. The only difference is that That is, a silver mask appeared on this person's face out of thin air, covering half of his face. It does seem a bit dark and mysterious.
The masked man's brows darkened slightly: "I've put down my things, why aren't you leaving yet?"
Qin Mengyao said: "You'd better stop! Stop arresting those innocent brides, okay?!"
As soon as Qin Mengyao said this, all the strange and bizarre incidents that happened in Meizhen these days about the missing bride had reasonable answers.
It turns out that the instigator of all these events was actually a real existence, a living person, and they were all caused by a masked man who was not much different from other people. It is not the so-called "mountain demon" that people spread rumors and hearsay, and the rumors become more and more popular and evil.
In other words, this masked man is the so-called "mountain demon" in people's mouth. He is the righteous master Bai Mo Hua who Yun Fan and the others are looking for to fight in the battle to seize the seal. He is also the Bai Mo Hua from the Xiuwen Museum who has disappeared for a long time.
Although the rumors are groundless, there must be a reason, but the rumors in the world cannot be fully believed.
As soon as Qin Mengyao said these words, it was like a muffled thunder exploding in the heart and soul of the masked man, touching the unspeakable scars and inverse scales of the mysterious masked man.
The so-called dragon's reverse scale, if you touch it, you will die. Of course this masked man is no exception.
"..." The masked man's heart and soul and the energy in his whole body were out of control at the same time in an instant. His figure suddenly moved forward, and his palms suddenly grabbed Qin Mengyao's snowy neck. He roared, holding her body and suddenly fell to the ground. Lifting, Qin Mengyao's body suddenly flew into the air.
"..." His eyes were red, as if stained with blood, and his face looked frighteningly ferocious.
"I told you, except for bringing me food, don't worry about anything else. Why are you so fussy?!" His fingers tightened suddenly
The five fingers locked on Qin Mengyao's neck were like iron hooks, and the rapid breathing blew on her pretty face like flames. Qin Mengyao groaned in pain, but her eyes were frighteningly calm, without any signs of panic. Her beautiful eyes stared at the ferocious face of the masked man who was approaching Chi Chi. She raised her hand, grabbed his wrist, and said calmly: "You have become the target of public criticism. I don't want anything to happen to you."
The air became extremely cold, and in the terrifying silence, the masked man's hand slowly moved away from Qin Mengyao's neck, leaving five scarlet fingerprints.
He turned around with his hands behind his back, facing Qin Mengyao without saying a word.
As the masked man's palm moved away, the immense force attached to Qin Mengyao's neck disappeared instantly, and the terrifying feeling of suffocation also subsided.
Cough cough cough!
Qin Mengyao suddenly coughed twice and said with great difficulty: "Yunfan and Sikong Yujiu are going to deal with you. If they can't find you, they won't give up."
"Haha," the masked man chuckled and said gloomily, "Do you think a mere fortune teller and doctor can deal with me?"
From the day Yunfan stayed at Yuelai Inn, Qin Mengyao began to inquire and test the purpose of Yunfan and others, both openly and secretly. When she finally figured out that they were going to investigate the mountain demon, not long after, she told Bai Mohua the identities of Yun Fan, Sikong Zhenjiu and others while delivering food to Bai Mohua.
After all, he had been kind to himself. To be precise, it was her child Xiao Shan who was kind to her.
As for what exactly happened and what the cause and effect were, this is a topic for later and will not be mentioned here for the time being.
Therefore, it is not surprising that Bai Mo Hua knows the identities of Yun Fan and Sikong Zhenjiu.
Qin Mengyao still covered Xue's neck and said cautiously: "They are not as simple as you think!"
"Okay!" The masked man couldn't help shouting, "I want them to taste my power!"
Hahahahaha!
Bai Mohua laughed a few times, picked up the wooden box on the stone, and then swayed forward, disappearing in front of Qin Mengyao in the blink of an eye.
Qin Mengyao's face was filled with tears, and she stood there, her eyes fixed on the direction where the white ink painting disappeared, and she did not move for a long time.
——————
That night, for some unknown reason, Yun Fan invited Sikong Zhenjiu to take a bath in the hot spring. Originally, he wanted to invite him to pray for death, but when he saw that he was sleeping soundly, he gave up the idea.
This hot spring is located in the backyard of the inn. It is Qin Mengyao's unique idea and is specially designed for guests coming and going. It can be said that her business acumen is really not good.
After Yunfan and Sikong Zhenjiu took a bath in the hot spring, they walked slowly out of the backyard with happy faces. At the nearest table in the front yard, Qin Mengyao had already prepared freshly boiled wine for Yunfan and Sikong Zhenjiu. Everyone poured a cup.
Yun Fan and Sikong Zhenjiu sat next to each other.
For some reason, Sikong Zhenjiu had a vague feeling that Yun Fan was in a very good mood tonight and was in a very happy mood.
Yun Fan sighed slightly and said with a smile: "After soaking in the hot spring, I really feel relaxed."
He felt like he was in Qiong Yao's fairyland, his whole body felt indescribably comfortable, every pore...and even every cell was full of infinite vitality, and every tight soul string seemed to be relaxed. That ecstatic feeling is indescribably wonderful.
"Master Yun, you are looking for people and catching mountain monsters these days. You must be overworked!" Qin Mengyao changed the topic and asked seemingly casually: "By the way, I wonder if you have thought about dealing with mountain monsters. Method?"
Suikong Yujiu looked at Qin Mengyao and said with a smile: "Boss Qin is very interested in knowing? Why don't you help me relax my muscles and bones, and I will tell you slowly."
Qin Mengyao responded with a smile: "Master Sikong's bones are so hard, I'm afraid I won't serve him well." The tone was very soft, very soft and gentle, but the coldness and sarcasm in it were so straightforward that anyone who understands would listen. out.
As expected of Qin Mengyao with such a fierce and straightforward personality! Sikong Zhenjiu secretly admired in his heart. The more she behaved like this, the more Sikong Yujiu felt that Qin Mengyao was different from all the women he had met before. She was so different, so fascinating to him, so valuable to him. attraction. He was so addicted that he couldn't extricate himself.
Yun Fan: "..."
"I won't disturb you two anymore! Sorry to keep you company!" Qin Mengyao glanced at Yun Fan, said politely, and then left slowly. He didn't even look at Sikong Zhenjiu and ignored him.
After a while, it was confirmed that Qin Mengyao had completely left here. Yun Fan just asked softly: "Have you thought of a way to deal with the mountain monster?"
"Not yet." Sikong Zhenjiu looked at Yun Fan with a smile: "But, I guess you should have thought of it. Otherwise, how could you come to the hot spring so easily."
Sikong Zhenjiu expected that Yunfan had indeed thought of a way to deal with the mountain monster.
Yun Fan's eyes narrowed slightly, and a flash of light suddenly shot out from his eyes: "Since the mountain demon's goal is to get a bride, it doesn't matter if I give him a bride!"
"Why don't we give him a trick?" At the end of the sentence, Yun Fan's lips curved into a beautiful smile. The eyebrows were arched, and the black eyes were shining like diamonds, and the eyes became extremely crystal clear and deep at this time.
As soon as he said this, Sikong Zhenjiu suddenly understood: "You mean to find someone to pretend to be a bride and lure the snake out of its hole!"
Yun Fan didn't comment when he heard the words, and just listened to him continue: "As long as we can successfully lure the mountain demon out, the mystery of the white ink painting will naturally be solved.
Seeing Yun Fan's confident look, for some reason, Sikong Zhen felt an inexplicable touch in his heart.
Yun Fan slowly closed his eyes, holding his breath and concentrating. He did not speak any more. His consciousness sank slightly. The power of Wuji Xuantian Kung was slowly running through the meridians in his body, and he seemed to have entered a state of enlightenment...
At this moment, Sikong Yujiu saw Yun Fan's eyes closed tightly, and his consciousness seemed to be deeply trapped in them. His eyebrows suddenly jumped slightly, and his eyes were cold. In that moment, the murderous intention in his eyes was revealed... The words of Sarutobi Sun and Moon slowly passed through his mind.
"If the two of them join forces, it will be even more difficult for you to kill Yun Fan. I think you should act quickly and kill Yun Fan as soon as you get the chance. Don't delay the opportunity."
The tip of Sikong Zhenjiu's right finger that had been placed under the table flashed with dazzling white light, and then, a golden needle with terrifying murderous intent and cold power suddenly appeared in his hand.
However, this time the target is directly aimed at Yun Fan, an unsuspecting friend who sits next to him and trusts him in every possible way.
