The unkempt old man stood in the alley and looked at Bai Youjun with a smile.
She grabbed her sister's hand nervously.
Maybe it's because the Nongsui Lane is damp and the walls are covered with mold.
The mildew acts wantonly and seems to swallow up the entire alley.
"Sister..." Bai Youjun said in a panic.
Bai Yuqing lowered her head slightly to comfort Qingmei, who was only as tall as her shoulders: "Don't be afraid, she's just a lonely ghost."
"Sister, can you kill it?"
"Killing is possible."
"Sister, please kill it, mold is growing everywhere, it's so disgusting!" Bai Youjun begged.
Bai Yuqing smiled and said, "Qingmei is worried about the young man?"
"..."
Bai Youjun lowered her head. She had no city at all. What she was thinking could be seen on her face.
"It's just a joke. How can I really choose a marriage for you? It's easy to kill this lonely ghost, but our whereabouts are exposed."
"I do not care!"
"Qingmei, you are naughty."
"Sister, you have left your name in the "Bai Ze Jade Book"!" Bai Youjun begged stubbornly.
Bai Yuqing said slightly angrily: "If you want to protect Zhao Chan, you can kill him yourself."
"Okay!" She puffed her cheeks.
Bai Yuqing raised her eyebrows and twisted Bai Youjun's ears.
"Sister! Sister! It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!"
"Qingmei, why are you becoming more and more disobedient?"
"Obviously it was my sister who wanted me to get close to my husband. We were chosen by my sister for marriage!"
Bai Yuqing was so angry that she couldn't bear to hit her: "Let's go! If you continue to act nonsense, I will send you back to Da'eshan immediately."
The old man bared his teeth and smiled.
The teeth are as black as mold.
Sun He pushed open the door and walked out, standing side by side with the old man, watching the two sisters who had reached the alley.
Bai Yuqing looked back at them and said disdainfully: "Clown."
She took Bai Youjun to Xiliu Lane next to Daguan Lane.
Although Xiliu Lane is not as prosperous as Daguan Lane, it is still a good place that other people in the town want to move into day and night.
There are regular bluestone slabs underfoot.
A few autumn rains have washed it clean, and it is easy to see the lines on the bluestone.
Children chase each other, laughing and having fun.
Wang Huan walked into the alley.
The children gathered around him, clamoring to learn the swordsmanship of slaying demons.
Wang Huan touched their little heads, smiled from ear to ear, and kept saying yes.
Bai Yuqing and Bai Youjun passed by them.
It's obviously very close.
Wang Huan turned a blind eye to the two of them.
At the end of Xiliu Lane is a fertile field, and the crops have been harvested.
The private school is located on the flat land next to the farmland.
I vaguely saw the teacher walking out of the vegetable field and carrying a handful of vegetables.
The sky is clear and the sky is blue.
The Evil Mountain blocked Bai Yuqing's view of the distance.
…
Zhao Chan packed up the food Bai Youjun bought. He had already eaten a bowl of wontons at noon and was not hungry.
I carefully took out "Qiong Lin" copied by my husband, turned over page by page, and recited it softly, mesmerized.
My parents made a wish during the Spring Festival, hoping that Zhao Chan would gain fame and honor his ancestors in the future.
Also in that year, his parents took him to his husband's house with the apprenticeship ceremony. The husband tested him on a few words and happily accepted him as his disciple.
Later, my parents passed away, I had no source of income, and I couldn't afford to pay school fees.
In a school where almost all the kids from Daguan Lane were there, Zhao Chan chose to drop out.
The husband tried to persuade her to stay again and again, but he was still a child and as stubborn as a donkey. No matter how hard his husband tried to persuade him, he made up his mind to leave.
Finally, the husband asked him, don’t you care about your parents’ expectations?
Zhao Chan lowered his head and wiped his tears.
I couldn't wait to read "Qiong Lin" again.
He opened the suitcase, took out all the clothes, selected thick winter clothes and spread them at the bottom of the suitcase, put the books on top, and covered the books with a few pieces of clothing.
Zhao Chan was worried that the book club would be affected by the heavy rain in recent days.
If it is placed in a suitcase and wrapped in clothes, "Qiong Lin" copied by Mr. himself will not get damp, right?
Of course, he was also afraid that Sun He would break into the house and damage the book.
After repeatedly confirming that it was correct, he planted a peach branch at an angle, closed the door, and trotted towards the Demon Slayer Division.
Zhao Chan was actually not happy to become a demon slayer. His parents told him to live well, but the demon slayer would never provide him with good food and drink without having to put himself in danger to slay demons.
He had no choice then.
Wang Huan saw the magic of Taozhi. If he didn't take the initiative to mention joining the Demon Slayer Division to stabilize Wang Huan and make him feel that he was under his control, would Wang Huan risk everything to kill him and occupy Taozhi?
Zhao Chan didn't know.
But he would never dare to gamble on human nature.
Passing by Zhang Cuicui’s wonton stall.
Yang Yun was sitting on a wooden stool holding a sage's book and shaking his head. Zhang Cuicui picked up the empty bowl in front of him. When she saw Zhao Chan, she smiled and waved.
"Sister Cuicui."
"Brother Yang."
Zhang Cuicui asked: "Going to the Demon Slayer Division again?"
"Yes, I am a demon slayer now."
She held the empty bowl of wontons that Yang Yun had finished eating: "This job of killing monsters is too dangerous, can you quit?"
"Thank you Sister Cuicui for your kindness!"
"Zhao Chan, you..."
"Goodbye Sister Cuicui, goodbye Brother Yang."
Yang Yun stood up and saw Zhao Chan running away before saluting, and sighed: "My dear brother, I have lost my courtesy, alas!"
The only street in Youju Town is called "Caiyan".
The town is not big, but the shops along Caiyan Street have everything you need.
Villagers from nearby villages come here every now and then to buy their daily necessities.
Therefore, Youju Town is only slightly larger than an ordinary village, but the lives of the neighbors living in the town are much better than those of the villagers outside.
Two villagers stood outside the door of the Demon Slayer Division, looking left and right, not daring to go in.
Zhao Chan knew them.
Zhou Niu and Sun Dagou from Xiaoshi Village.
When going into the mountains to pick paint, Zhao Chan often passed by Xiaoshi Village. Over time, he became acquainted with Zhou Niu who lived at the entrance of the village. Sun Dagou was a medicine farmer, and the two met occasionally in the mountains.
The two saw him.
Zhou Niu, who was sallow and skinny, stepped forward to meet him, and Sun Dagou followed him obediently.
"Little brother, why are you here at the Demon Slayer Division?"
"Brother Zhou, I have become a demon slayer."
"Ah?" Zhou Niu exclaimed, "Aren't you afraid of death?"
Zhao Chan smiled and did not answer.
asked.
"Are you here to report a crime?"
"Yes, I wonder if Wang Lishi is here?"
"Come in with me."
Zhao Chan led them to sit down in the front yard. Before entering the door, the two of them carefully plowed the mud off the soles of their straw sandals.
After searching around, Wang Huan was not found.
Except for him, there is no demon slayer in the Demon Slayer Division.
"Brother Wang must have something to do, please sit down for a while."
"Little brother, have you really become a demon slayer?" Sun Dagou didn't believe it.
"Um."
"My little brother is the strongest person I have ever seen. Now that he has become a demon slayer, he will definitely be able to kill the demons to their death!"
Zhao Chan asked: "Is there a demon attack in Xiaoshi Village?"
"No, something happened in the mountains."
"What's going on?" Wang Huan walked in.
Zhou Niu tugged on Sun Dagou's sleeve: "Wang Lishi is here, tell me quickly!"
"Wang...Wang Lishi, I went into the mountains to collect herbs this morning and saw a demon."
"There are demons in the mountains."
"No, no, there have never been monsters in Erniu Mountain before!"
