leave the wind on the grass

Chapter 108

"Do you still want to see your senior brother?"

Du Ruo remained silent, and nodded again.

Qiu Xiaofeng took out a soul-calling talisman from his bosom, and said, "Is there a way for you to see him?"

Seeing him casually taking out a piece of talisman, Du Ruo felt that this person might have some abilities, so he said, "You know how to summon souls?"

"This ghost city connects the two worlds of yin and yang, so it is natural to summon the soul to see it."

Du Ruo really wanted to see that person, so she could only follow Qiu Xiaofeng's order. She had seen countless ghosts in the ghost town in the past few years, and she couldn't figure out whether it was true or not.Several times she dreamed that she was at the gate of hell, and the people inside were waving to her. Every time she wanted to go in, she hesitated again.

"How about I set up the magic circle at midnight tonight?"

"Well."

Qiu Xiaofeng himself was terrified of ghosts to death, so he brought a few extra ghost-repelling charms with him to fool him.

At night, when the cold wind was blowing, Qiu Xiaofeng placed a few red candles on the ground and lit them.The red candle flickered, it was deserted, and the dead leaves rustled down.After the third watch gong struck, Du Ruo was asked to enter the room to wait. Du Ruo looked at the eight red candles surrounding the room, and felt cold.

A few incomprehensible formations were surrounded by red lines on the ground, and bells were hung on the red lines.

"Open the Heavenly Court and make people live forever. Three souls and seven souls, return to the gods and turn into infants. Exterminate ghosts and demons, come to the thousand spirits. Ascend to the Supreme, merge with the sun. Three souls live on the left, seven souls guard the right. Listen to God's order, It's also ominous. Be as urgent as you want." Qiu Xiaofeng pretended to start summoning souls, but in fact he memorized a few spells casually, and he didn't know if it was right to use them.It's just that the red candle is flickering, which looks a bit weird.

After Qiu Xiaofeng finished reading, he said to Du Ruo, "Open your eyes when the bell rings, don't peep. This formation is a bit ineffective, if there are other ghosts coming, you should treat it as if you couldn't see it. Don't mess with it."

Du Ruo closed her eyes, a chill ran up her back, and her sword was also placed outside, saying that the fierce sword would attract evil spirits, Du Ruo was alone in this airtight and silent room, Hands started shaking.

Suddenly a gust of cold wind came in from the window.

Who didn't close the windows.

No, she checked when she came, the window was closed.

The bell only rang a few times at first, and then it became a mess, ringing one after another.Du Ruo was a little scared and didn't dare to open his eyes.

It was not until the bell rang for a long time that Du Ruo gently opened her eyes, which were only opened a crack.

I saw the man wearing a pair of white boots, and the hem of his robe was painted with ink and bamboo orchids.

Du Ruo looked up, but saw Bai Xiao standing here.

Du Ruo immediately became angry, "Why are you here!"

"I heard someone summoning spirits, so I came over to have a look." Bai Xiao said softly, but he didn't take a step closer. Standing in the room with flickering candles, he looked a bit miserable.

"You, are you dead?" Du Ruo recalled, but really did not see the shadow of Bai Xiao.In fact, there is no shadow of anyone standing there.The candles were lit from below, and the room was narrow and dark behind.

Du Ruo was about to take two steps forward to pull his robe.Bai Xiao took another step back and said, "My Yin Qi is too heavy, don't get it."

Du Ruo could only stop in his tracks, and asked, "How did you die?"

"He died of illness. You poisoned me that day. Although I saved my life, I still couldn't escape this disaster."

That day, Bai Xiao told Du Ruo to let her live in the Jin Sui Yi Pavilion first, and keep his father safe. But later, Du Ruo couldn't wait to escape with his senior brother, and was forced to the edge of a cliff by people from Du's family.Afraid that she would do something stupid, Bai Xiao immediately followed her.

Later, Du Ruo thought it was him who had informed him, saying that he was a hypocrite, who promised well on the surface but made trouble behind his back, she would never like him to death.

Bai Xiao pulled him up the cliff, but told her that he said that he wanted to save the lives of the two of them, so naturally he would not do any harm.Du Ruo didn't believe it, so he secretly poisoned the food.In fact, Bai Xiao knew it, and just ate it just to make her happy.Later the doctor came quickly, he did not die, but fell ill.He didn't care about his health getting worse, no matter how much money the Golden Thread Clothes Pavilion made, he had nothing but money.

He had already adopted a child, if he died, let that child take care of the family business.Anyway, there were many such things in their ancestors, so he was just picked up by the Golden Thread Clothes Pavilion.

"You came back to ask for my life?"

"You marry me and you are my wife. How could I be willing to let you die? It's just that I'm not here, so you take care of yourself." Bai Xiao was talking, and suddenly coughed again, and Du Ruo shed tears for some reason Come out, choked up and said, "Why are you still coughing after death?"

"I'm used to it." Bai Xiaoyun said calmly, holding a hairpin in his hand, and said, "I'll give it back to you."

The hairpin is very delicate, carved into a lifelike butterfly, with a ruby ​​inlaid on the top.

That day when Jin Sui Yi Ge went to Du's house to propose a marriage, Du Ruo could only stand there because of his father's oppression.When I saw Bai Xiao, I seemed to forget who he was, and I didn't want to talk to him.Bai Xiao took off the jade pendant and handed it to her.Du Ruo had no choice but to end up, and his father said, "Why don't you know how to return the gift?"

Du Ruo didn't want this marriage at all, so how could he prepare a gift in return.It's just that his father couldn't do anything wrong when he stared at her, so he took off the hairpin and threw it to Bai Xiao, saying, "Take it.".

Du Ruo couldn't help crying anymore, "What is given to you is yours, don't give it back to me."

"It's just that if I die, I can't take it with me. You should keep it."

Du Ruo felt that his shadow was becoming more and more transparent. His hands were so thin that only a layer of skin was left, covering the bones. He was really too thin.

Du Ruo wiped away tears with her hands, "Can you please don't, don't go."

"I know you like him. It's my fault. If I hadn't come to propose marriage, you would have been together. I'm sorry for you." Bai Xiao shook his head, threw the hairpin on the ground, turned around and was about to leave .

Du Ruo hurried over to hold him back, and said, "I, I don't like him, I like you! I, it's all my fault, I've already thought about it, I..."

"Why don't you like it again?"

"Actually, the time he wanted to drag me to death, I understood a little... I, I..."

"Then would you like to go back with me?"

"But you are dead."

"I lied to you."

Bai Xiao wiped away her tears and smiled.

Before Du Ruo could react, "It's great that you didn't die. I won't do stupid things anymore. It's all my fault."

Qiu Xiaofeng waited outside the door for a long time, thinking that the owner of the Golden Thread Clothes Pavilion is really powerful, Qiu Xiaofeng learned the lesson last time, a mirror flower wedding dress made him play Qiu Xiaofeng and Yue Ci all over the place .After a while, two people came out through the door.

Du Ruo gritted his teeth, "Are you colluding with him?"

Bai Xiao just smiled.

When the two got into the carriage and left on the second day, Bai Xiao said, "I owe you a favor from Baishoumen. If the owner of the gate needs Bai for anything, just ask."

"The master's words are serious."

After the carriage had gone far away, Yue Ci came down from the tree, sighed a few times, and sneered, "The master of the door is really deliberate in selling favors."

The matter of Yue Ci was over, and he turned around and was about to leave.

"stop."

Yue Ci turned her head.

"I helped you get rid of the ghost sect, and you owe me a favor."

"You, don't bully people too much!"

In the past, Yue Ci played with Qiu Xiaofeng, but now they are the opposite.

"you flatter me."

Yue Ci's heart is broken, I have never seen such a brazen person.

"As expected, Qiu Xiaofeng is the most fun." Yue Ci complained in a low voice.

"Qiu Xiaofeng?"

"That's my friend. He's much better than you people with sinister intentions, and you don't have to worry about intrigue when getting along with each other." Yue Ci sighed, and I'm afraid Qiu Xiaofeng won't be able to maintain his temper for long.It can be seen from the incident of throwing medicine last time.

When they returned to the inn, the two had already left.Now that the affairs of the ghost city are over, Qiu Xiaofeng wants to set off to return to Baishoumen.

Halfway down the road, he was stopped by someone.

Leng Ruyi stood in front of Qiu Xiaofeng with a dagger, and asked, "Did you make the cold food?"

"I ordered it."

"Why?"

Qiu Xiaofeng smiled, and said pointedly, "Didn't you want them to die? Every time you take a little medicine, it's too mild, so I'll give you a little more. Now that people are dead, isn't it just the right time for you? To kill the wishes of the world?"

Leng Ruyi took a step back, unable to stand upright, and the knife fell to the ground.Qiu Xiaofeng brushed past her.After a few steps, he heard the uncle say, "This is the result you want."

Leng Ruyi stood for a while, then sneered a few times and said, "I understand."

###

Qiu Xiaofeng traveled back and forth, and returned to Baishoumen, and received a letter from the city lord Le Qi, who said that the martial arts conference was only five months away, and hoped that Qiu Xiaofeng would proceed carefully.

Qiu Xiaofeng burned the letter.

"Sect Master, Yuan Tidong invites you to have a talk."

Qiu Xiaofeng went to Yuanti East.

Now Yuantidong has successfully placed the secret work under Zuodao's nose. Zuodao trusts Loofah very much, and Loofah has found out the truth about the extermination of Qi's family back then.

Seeing Liang Tanmian approaching, Yuan Jinren immediately asked his subordinates to make a pot of good tea, and said, "This is the cloud and mist of Lushan Mountain, you can try it."

Qiu Xiaofeng didn't move.

Yuan Jinren began to talk about the topic.

"I can't hang on to the sweeping mountain villa. It turns out that Su Xiang is the person on top of him. This Su Qingshou was worshiped as a prime minister at a young age, and his power is in the hands of the government. I reckon he still has the intention of accumulating power to rebel. Now the court There are constant disputes in the hall, all wanting to gain influence in our arena. The mother and concubine of the fifth prince was murdered, so the fifth prince also lived outside the court. The Duke An of the current dynasty had once led troops to fight, and his military achievements were outstanding. Now that he has finally found the fifth prince, he must be fighting for power. The fourth prince is not easy to mess with. He has been handling state affairs since he was a child. Most appreciated by Taifu, he is a rare talent.

"Su Qingshou wanted to usurp power, so he asked the Chaoye Villa to find someone to enter the palace to be an alchemist, so as to confuse the emperor to cultivate immortality and become a Buddha, so that he could make nothing of state affairs by himself. Do you know who the Chaoye Villa asked for?"

"Qijia?" Qiu Xiaofeng had never heard of the secret of Qijia and alchemists.The Qi family has always been a scholarly family. They are proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and they don't look like people who like alchemy at all.

"Although Qi's family claims to be a scholarly family on the surface, in fact, their ancestors were court warlocks. They have only lived in the rivers and lakes for a few years now, and they have a good appearance. Others think that their family is clean. Qi's family and Chaoye Villa are privately There was an exchange, and the Chaoye Villa asked the Qi family to invite some people into the palace to confuse the emperor. The juniors of the Qi family should not have known about this, and they only learned about it later. Later, the Qi family did a lot of unreasonable things for Su Xiang, and sent the prince Killed him. In fact, this prince is pretty good, gentle and kind, but he was tricked by others. After all, Qi Jia felt sorry, so he wrote all the bad things he did in the past into a chess book and hid them, hoping that he can play in the future. To avenge the crown prince's injustice. But later this matter was known by the sweeping mountain villa. If the emperor knew about this matter, it would be a crime of beheading. So the sweeping mountain villa tortured the people who questioned Qi's family, but they couldn't find out why. Qi's family He said that he had given this chess book to the emperor. But if the emperor knew about it, he would have to take no action, so Saoye Villa thought that Qijia was just a tactic to slow down the army.

"The destruction of Qi's family was done by the Sanye Villa in order to cover up the truth. But Qi Tu is miserable. If you tell this matter, it will make the family lose face. If you don't speak out, you can't help others. Zhaoxue. So he had to spend so much time. He made up a big lie, saying that the supreme mind and martial arts are hidden in the Jiuquan Yipu, and everyone in the world will come to compete for it, in order to make the sweeping villa panic. If anyone Got it, and then decide how to deal with it.”

To actually make up such a lie and deceive the world into it, Qi Tu doesn't seem to be a fuel-efficient lamp.He also heard the description of Qi Tu by the gentleman of Qingfeng Academy, this person really hid it deeply enough.The hidden secrets are not a single star, and he doesn't know whether he is tired or not with such a secret.

It's just that he died.

How uncomfortable Song Yuxian was.

I don't know where Song Yuxian is.

Now that Pepsi is confused, we can only take one step at a time.

Later, Qiu Xiaofeng went to ask the city lord about these things.

Qi Wuyuan complained that he could only meet him in the courtyard, Qiu Xiaofeng couldn't go directly to the City Lord's Mansion to find him, Qiu Xiaofeng waited for an hour and the City Lord finally came.

The city lord walks like the wind, and his body is fairly strong.

Seeing Qiu Xiaofeng and not seeing him for many days, he thought Qiu Xiaofeng had betrayed him.

"City Lord, are you also involved in the matter of the fifth prince?" Qiu Xiaofeng cut to the chase without hiding it, and asked directly.

The city lord flicked his sleeves and sat on the grand teacher's chair, and said, "If you listen, you will never be able to get out again."

"All ears."

"Boldness." Qi Wuyuan praised, and said, "If only my nephew could do the same."

"Your nephew?"

"We only met now, and I'm afraid he still has suspicions against me."
