Anecdotes with facial paralyzed subordinates

Zhao Xuehan hadn't finished muttering, when suddenly his mouth was blocked by a big lump, he coughed twice, and hurriedly took out the thing, thin fine powder fell from his hands.

It was a piece of shortbread, covered with powdered sugar in two layers, with hawthorn puree in the middle.Yan Ke patted his shoulder lightly.

"Don't think about anything." He said, hanging a big bag of snacks on Zhao Xuehan's hand.

"I didn't think about anything." Zhao Xuehan said, taking a bite of the shortbread in his hand.The dim sum is delicious, but it's a bit choking.

Yan Ke glanced at Zhao Xuehan with a disbelieving expression, and handed him a cup of tea from somewhere.

The two walked back along the street and passed a stage, which happened to be performing a play about the demon king again.Zhao Xuehan couldn't help but stop and watch.

The Demon Lord on that stage was dancing his sword, although he couldn't see the plot, but no matter the pattern painted on his face or his posture, they were much higher than the Demon Lord in the town.

Seeing that Zhao Xuehan was interested, Yan Ke followed him and stopped.

"Why are you still rehearsing the show of the demon king?" He heard a woman's voice beside him saying.

Yan Ke turned his head, and there were two women standing behind him, one was older with a baby in his arms, and the other was younger.It should be the older one who asked the question.

"The devil in this troupe has a good figure, and his sword dance is beautiful, everyone likes it." The young woman said, "It's a pity that we don't exclude others."

"Isn't it good to let him pretend to be someone else?" The older woman whispered, "It's too scary to see this Demon Lord jumping around here every day."

"It's nothing. It's relatively stable outside recently, and there is no conflict between the immortal and the demon cultivator. There has been no news about the Demon Lord for a long time..." the young woman said.

"No news?" The older woman looked startled, "Don't you know? I just heard what Old Wang said..."

She lowered her voice: "Yesterday, a demon cultivator made trouble in the town to the west, and made alchemy with people's souls. In order to protect the demon cultivator, the demon master killed all the people in that town!"

Yan Ke's hands trembled.

The young woman was startled: "Really? This Demon Lord is becoming more and more cruel!"

"It's more and more, he has never been a good guy!" The old woman sighed in a low voice, "It is said that when the traveler entered that village in the morning, it was silent, and the eyes of the whole village were bleeding. fell to the ground..."

"Oh, don't talk about it! It's really scary!" The young woman stopped and looked at the Demon Lord on the stage in fear. I'm afraid, it's best not to mention him..."

Yan Ke's expression became more and more gloomy, he turned his head, looked at Zhao Xuehan beside him who was concentrating on the scene, and gently bent his fingers, blowing a gust of wind in his ear.The wind flowed extremely fast, forming a thin sound-proof wall, blowing away other noises, so that Zhao Xuehan could only hear the voices on the stage.

It was past noon when the two returned to the Lin residence.As soon as the servant opened the door, Zhao Xuehan heard a few shouts.He raised his eyes and saw Lin Jue was dragged by a girl and ran out of the house.

As soon as Lin Jue saw Zhao Xuehan, he yelled: "Brother Zhao, Brother Yan, save me quickly! I'm going to be killed by this tigress!"

The girl tugged at Lin Jue's ears, with a bit of sullen expression on her pretty face: "How dare you get someone to save you! Don't focus on training, and run home all day long! You have let down the immortal's desire to accept you as an apprentice in vain! "

"Don't dare, I can't compare to the fairy Lingling that you fancy," Lin Jue broke free from the girl's hand, and said, "I made a verbal agreement with you, we will walk together for the rest of my life, and then I will pat you." Ass ran to practice and never came back!"

"You!" The girl was flushed with anger, and she stretched out her hand to slap Lin Jue, but Lin Jue hurriedly dodged, circled around the yard, and hid behind Yan Ke.

Seeing that she couldn't hit Lin Jue, the girl stomped her feet on the spot, and the long yellow silk dress was shaken by her stomping.A maid beside her hurried forward and comforted her in a soft voice: "Miss, Young Master Lin has grown up too, so he must know what's good and what's wrong. Don't be angry."

"He?" The girl pointed at Lin Jue and said angrily, "Look at him, he doesn't seem to know what's good! All these years, he just thinks about being lazy, and he hasn't made any progress!"

"It's been so many years." Lin Jue retorted, "Not many years at all!"

"Stop arguing with me!" the girl said angrily, and wanted to go up to arrest Lin Jue, but was grabbed by the sleeve by the servant girl. "Miss, let's pay attention to etiquette," the maid said in a low voice, "There are still outsiders here."

The girl seemed to have finally discovered the existence of Zhao Xuehan and Yan Ke, and quickly put away her angry expressions.She stood still, took the fan from the maid, slapped it lightly twice, then blessed herself slightly, and gave a simple salute.

"It made the guests laugh." The girl said softly.

"Where is there?" Lin Jue jumped out from behind Yan Ke with a smile, and the girl gave him a hard look, "Brother Zhao, Brother Yan, I haven't introduced you yet. Zhuo Fangling, the eldest lady, lives next door, and we grew up together."

Zhao Xuehan looked at Zhuo Fangling, this girl had a round face and big eyes, she was pretty and pretty, she looked like she was in her early 20s.

"You two grew up together?" He frowned slightly and asked Lin Jue.

"That's right." Lin Jue rolled his eyes and replied, "She is a few years older than me, and she educates me every day as her sister."

"Bah, who do you think will educate you?" Miss Zhuo raised her nose, then nodded at Zhao Xuehan and Yan Ke, "Guests, Lin Jue is really useless, please supervise him more, otherwise This guy," she glanced at Lin Jue, "he must have spent his whole life laughing and laughing without getting anything done."

Lin Jue retorted, "I have grown up very well in my life, so you don't need to worry about it", but Zhuo Fangling ignored him, and went out through the gate with her head up and her maid.

Zhao Xuehan stared at her back and left, was silent for a while, then turned around and joked to Lin Jue: "Miss Zhuo really cares about you, why don't you marry her when you grow up a bit."

"Bah, bah, who wants this old girl." Lin Jue said, "Let her wait for her fairy to come back slowly."

Zhao Xuehan raised his head and looked around. "Where's Mr. Wen?" he asked.

Lin Jue's face quickly darkened: "I don't know." After speaking, he turned and entered the room.

Zhao Xuehan ate some cakes in the Lin Mansion, dawdled for a while, and after dark, went to bed and fell asleep under the covers.

He slept soundly at first, but unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, he was woken up violently by a pair of hands.Zhao Xuehan opened his eyes and saw Lin Jue standing in front of his bed.

He looked up, Yan Ke was not in the room.

"You're finally awake," Lin Jue saw Zhao Xuehan opened his eyes and smiled, "I'll show you something."

"Wait..." Before Zhao Xuehan finished speaking, he was dragged up by Lin Jue with a quilt. Curious about why this child was so strong, he hurriedly picked up a piece of clothing and put it on.

Lin Jue pulled Zhao Xuehan to the gate of the Lin Mansion, and jumped onto the courtyard wall with ease. He knelt on the wall and waved to Zhao Xuehan: "Come up."

Zhao Xuehan hesitated for a moment, then climbed up too.

As soon as he stepped on the wall, Lin Jue pinned his head down and made him squat down.Zhao Xuehan was at a loss, not knowing what kind of medicine was sold in Lin Jue's gourd.

Lin Jue pointed to the alley facing the gate of the Lin Mansion. "Watch carefully," he whispered.

Zhao Xuehan obediently stared at the deserted street as required.The bluestone floor, fallen leaves and dust, and the street lamps glowing faintly, nothing unusual.

Not long after, a figure slowly appeared from the end of the street. He was dressed like an ordinary person, holding a gong in his hand, walked slowly, and passed the gate of Lin Mansion in a leisurely manner.

Probably a watchman.Zhao Xuehan thought to himself.

The man walked past the wall of Lin's courtyard and came to the gate of Zhuo's mansion. He stretched out his finger and dug in his ear, then picked up a small hammer and hit the gong once. After the long sound died down, he tapped again lightly. After a while, the gong had just vibrated for a while, and he pressed the side of the gong to stop the sound.

Then he raised his hand again, and when he was about to strike the third time, the hammer suddenly fell to the ground.

Zhao Xuehan could only smell a rotten stench, and large patches of black and rotten pus appeared on the watchman's skin. In the blink of an eye, pieces of flesh fell off his body.He seemed to be falling apart, and without a sound, he fell to the ground with the clang of gongs.When the flesh and blood touched the air, it quickly rotted and turned black. A person who was originally a good person collapsed on the ground in an instant, turning into a piece of mud and white bones.

Zhao Xuehan covered his mouth, the strong rotten smell hit him from all directions, making him want to vomit.He turned to look at Lin Jue in horror, only to find that Lin Jue was also staring at him.

"Keep watching." With an unclear smile on his face, he pointed to the mud on the street.

After the mud lay on the bluestone road for a few seconds, it gradually flowed.I saw that the liquid on the ground gradually solidified and shrunk, covering the human bones that were arranged neatly by themselves.The signs of rot on the blood and skin disappeared, and the stench dissipated. After a few moments, the watchman stood intact at the gate of Zhuo Mansion again, as if nothing had happened.

He scratched his head, looked suspiciously at the hammer that fell on the ground, then picked it up, tapped the gong lightly, and continued walking along the alley after shouting "The sky is dry and everything is dry, be careful of candles" .

Zhao Xuehan's whole body was icy cold, and his fingers could hardly grasp the bricks and tiles on the wall.A strange and terrifying feeling filled his heart, and he had to work hard to restrain himself so as not to tremble all over.

"One long and two short, it's the third watch." He heard Lin Jue whispering beside him.

Zhao Xuehan turned his head and saw Lin Jue standing on the wall, looking down at him condescendingly.The moonlight was bright, casting a dark shadow on his handsome face.

"Scared?" Lin Jue grinned at Zhao Xuehan.That smile was gloomy and gloomy, and with the sound of beating shifting away, it seemed to be mixed with a rancid smell.

"It's not okay to be so timid, Lord Mozun." He said softly.
