In the early morning of summer, the sun crossed the mountains in the sky early and shone on this open and empty fertile field. The ancient road that stretches straight away has been stepped on by countless people. At this moment, two figures, one red and one white, are walking slowly. Walking on this ancient road, head towards the place called Xiaochi Town.

Under Wen Min's opposition, Lu Xueqi obtained Shuiyue's consent, and embarked on a trip to Xiaochi Town with Xiu.

The two walked silently on the road, Fei Er stood on Xiu's shoulder, closed his eyes and dozed off, the little raccoon nestled in Lu Xueqi's arms and refused to come out, only the fluffy white tail swayed with Lu Xueqi's footsteps. There is a slight cool breeze in the morning, and everything is very quiet.

Gradually, there were more pedestrians on the ancient road, some carrying baskets, or carrying poles and baskets, walking hurriedly, passing the two people who were walking slowly, a small town was already in front of the ancient road, Xiu Ning looked forward, The word "Xiaochi Town" is engraved on the stone tablet at the intersection beside the town.

"Miss Lu, Xiaochi Town is ahead."

"kindness."

The conversation was so simple that there was almost nothing, Lu Xueqi kept walking, Xiu paused and followed, approaching, the stone tablet was indeed clearly engraved with the words 'Xiaochi Town', Lu Xueqi stepped into the small ancient town first .

In the small town in the early morning, there are already many people, and the shops have opened their doors early. On the not-so-wide streets, there are many hawkers setting up stalls, and the sound of hawking can be heard endlessly.

Lu Xueqi was dressed in white, she was cold and beautiful, and she was walking with the little raccoon in her arms, which attracted a lot of attention. Due to the cold gaze and the cold blue sword behind her, those people with amazed eyes just watched from the sidelines, However, he took advantage of the crowded morning market and kept narrowing the distance until another stunning red figure appeared beside the white clothes. The eye-catching red clothes, coquettish and cold appearance, and strange red pupils exuded strange red pupils, which made everyone around Everyone stepped aside and stayed away.

In the crowded streets of the morning market, there was an empty area around Xiu and Lu Xueqi.

As they walked, the little raccoon in Lu Xueqi's arms raised its head, raised its head and sniffed the air, jumped out, and went to the crowd. Lu Xueqi and Xiu had to follow the little raccoon to see what the little guy was going to do. Where to go, it didn't stop until it ran to the front of an inn selling hot steamed buns at the door.

Xiu looked at Lu Xueqi, with helplessness in his eyes, Lu Xueqi met her eyes and looked at Xiaoli for a moment, Xiu pursed her lips, stepped forward and stepped into the inn with Xiaoli's back.

Ignoring the little raccoon's stout legs, he walked to the counter, "Shopkeeper, do you know the nearby Black Stone Cave?"

The shopkeeper was writing something when he heard a pleasant voice, but the words were asking about the black stone cave that no one dared to approach. When he looked up, he was even more frightened. A pair of blood-like red pupils were right in front of him. Throwing the ink pen in his hand, trembling all over, the woman in front of him is very beautiful, but she has a pair of demon eyes. "Demon, monster!"

Shutou tilted slightly to one side, dodging the splashing ink, looked at the ghost-like shopkeeper in front of him, and frowned, "I'm not a monster."

The little raccoon took the opportunity to break free from Xiu's grasp and hide away.

The shopkeeper completely ignored the rebuttal of the woman in front of him, and shrank to the corner. Even the waiters and handymen who rushed over after hearing the sound shrank into a ball following the shopkeeper when they saw the pair of eyes. With deep fear and defense. "It's not a monster, why do you want to inquire about the black stone demon cave! You are going to release the monsters trapped in the woods! Come on,,"

"Shopkeeper, we have no malicious intentions."

A cold voice cut off the shopkeeper's call to others, and Lu Xueqi walked in front of Xiu, blocking those panicked sights. "We are disciples of Qingyun and Fenxianggu."

Qingyun is the number one cultivator, even this remote ancient town has heard of it, the white-clothed woman in front of her is unparalleled in appearance, her cold temperament does not show any evil spirit, her righteousness is awe-inspiring, she is carrying a handle behind her back, she is not ordinary The fairy sword emits a faint blue light, as if it has a demonic aura that cannot be approached.The shopkeeper and the clerk looked at each other, boldly said, "Is the girl really Qingyun's disciple?"

Lu Xueqi nodded, didn't want to say too much, glanced at Xiu standing behind him with an ugly face, and said, "Shopkeeper, do you know about Heishidong?"

"I know, I know. This Black Stone Cave..." The waiter, who had shrunk for a long time at the side, also became more courageous at this time, and faced Lu Xueqi's question, he rushed to talk about the Black Stone Cave, the fox demon, and the rescue The three 'fairies' of Xiaochi Town

Xiu walked up to Lu Xueqi, and exchanged glances with her. Regardless of the appearance of the "immortal" in the waiter's mouth, or the magic weapon used, he confirmed that it was Xiaofan and Biguio, and the two listened quietly to the narration of the waiter.

The waiter opened up the chatterbox, eloquently, the shopkeeper and the handyman also added a few words from time to time, full of admiration and gratitude to Zhang Xiaofan and the three of them.

"Thanks to the three gods, the fox demon could not continue to be a disaster. Since then, there have been many strange-looking monsters in the woods outside the black stone cave for no reason. It is strange that those strange-looking things can't step out of the woods. The three benefactors cast a spell to keep us safe, and Xiaochi Town is now at peace."

"Nowadays, the northern suburbs ten miles away have become a restricted area that no one sets foot in. Girls, why do you ask about the Black Stone Cave?" After the waiter's waiter finished speaking, the shopkeeper didn't act weird at all when he saw the woman in red who thought it was a monster. The two beautiful girls couldn't help asking.

After hearing this, Lu Xueqi looked at Xiu who was beside her, and saw that she was contemplating something with frowned eyebrows, as if she hadn't heard the shopkeeper's question, but at this time, it was Xiaoli who jumped onto the counter, stood up, and walked forward. Holding a steaming steamed bun in his lap, he did not know when he stole it secretly, and it immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Xiu also recovered from his own thoughts, looked at the little raccoon who had already started to eat the buns, took out a piece of silver and put it on the counter. "Shopkeeper, here are bun money, pack four more."

A piece of silver is enough to buy a whole drawer of steamed buns, the shopkeeper is in a hurry to get some change, and he has just brought what he asked just now, and the waiter hastily packed up the hot steamed stuffed buns.

Xiu reached out to take it, Lu Xueqi glanced at Xiu, didn't say much, picked up the little raccoon, and walked out of the inn with Xiu who took the bun.

"Girl, I'm looking for your money!" The shopkeeper chased him out, but the two figures had already gone far away and disappeared into the lively morning market.

※※※

The buns he bought were swallowed by the little raccoon within a moment, and the little belly was swollen so round that Lu Xueqi had to let it go to the ground.After leaving the inn, Xiu was not in a hurry to go to the woods outside the town, but kept frowning, thinking to himself, Lu Xueqi followed Xiu's footsteps and strolled along the streets of the town.

What the shopkeeper said has no effect on Xiu other than proving that Xiaofan has indeed been here. It is not even as useful as what the senior sister Yan Hong said about the battle at Heishidong. It seems that the only way to find clues is to go to the forest that is considered a forbidden , but it has been more than a year, and I don't know if I can gain something.

Xiu was immersed in his thoughts, not knowing that he was already being watched.

An old man in a yellow Taoist robe, with white beard and hair, a mediocre face, and a pair of eyes with a sly look in his deep eye sockets, was staring closely at the woman in red in front of him, and the woman in white beside him , the sword on his back turned out to be the 'Tianya' sword, the old man couldn't help but murmured: "Hey, it's a big fish."

Beside the old man, a little girl with two soaring shofar braids cast a disgusted glance at him, shook her head, bit off the candied haws in her hand, ate with relish, and blinked a pair of bright black eyes, very Smart.

The old man's name is Zhou Yixian, he is a fortune teller who travels all over the world, although he looks like a fairy, he is an old liar who loves money like his life. , The talent of physiognomy is extraordinary, and he often cheats people of money.

The grandparents and grandchildren who have been wandering all over the world now revisit their old places, and they can't help but think of the past. Zhou Yixian's old problem happened again, and his eyes turned straight. The two figures from the back had already become his target.

Xiaohuan couldn't help but want to sigh, it's so good that the scar has forgotten the pain, did grandpa forget that it was here that he met the elder sister in green and was chased and fled in embarrassment?An intuition that the sister in red in front is not easy to mess with made Xiaohuan want to stop her grandfather.

But in this gap, Zhou Yixian shook the Guafan with the words "immortal guiding the way" written on it, and had already caught up with the two slim figures in front of him, one red and one white.

"You girl in red, you are covered with dark clouds, and you are shrouded in depression. Something is wrong!"

After fixing it, I decided to go to the woods in the north to investigate. At this moment, I suddenly heard such a sentence from behind, together with the fact that I was treated as a monster just now, all of a sudden, Xiu Na's bad temper, which had been hidden for a long time, surged up and stimulated the true energy in his body. With ice-like eyes, he turned around slowly.

Zhou Yixian was thinking about how to extort money, and chose the woman in red who looked better to strike up a conversation with. Baba waited for the woman in red to turn around, but unexpectedly, a chill rose up her spine, and a pair of blood-red eyes were shining He looked at himself with dead air, as if there was still a ghostly fire hidden in it.

"Ah!" Zhou Zhouxian yelled and sat down on the ground.

Xiaohuan, who happened to catch up, quickly squatted beside him, looking at his grandfather suspiciously, "Grandpa, are you all right, what's wrong with you?"

"Demon, ghost," Zhou Yixian pointed at the woman in front of him with trembling hands, before he could finish his trembling words, he saw the woman in red with a calm expression on her beautiful face, and there was no trace of evil spirit or ghostly look on her beautiful face. "Huh?"

Xiu secretly hooked the corner of his lower lip, and stepped forward to help the old man on the ground, expressionless. "Old man, get up, are you all right?"

The tone was a little concerned, but innocent, as if it wasn't her who was intentionally scaring people just now, glanced at Guafan, and Xiu waited for the old man in front of him to recover.

Zhou Yixian coughed, and kept saying that it's okay, how could the big fat sheep in his hand run away, and pretended to pat the ashes on his body.Zhou Zhouxian looked at the woman in red who helped him up, her pair of red pupils were very special. "My lady, the old man just saw that you were in a trance, but you have encountered a difficult situation? You are beautiful, and you have a pair of different pupils. I am afraid that there will be a catastrophe."

Lu Xueqi has been standing by the side without saying a word. The old man with the crane bone in front of her is obviously a fortune teller. Lu Xueqi is born in Qingyun, and feels kind to the fortune teller. Hearing the words of the old man at this moment, she slightly frowned. eyebrow, standing aside, looking at the old man.

Xiu, however, smiled slightly, the sarcasm in his eyes was hardly noticeable.

"Oh, is the old man going to read my face and give me instructions?"
