three watch drums
Chapter 24
The eyes peeking in from the window had a deep glaze color, and the faint light penetrated into the study. At first, Pei Changyuan thought that the window was blown open by the wind, and the moonlight was as bright as washing tonight...Suddenly he felt something was wrong, What kind of light must it have, so that it can travel [-] miles from the sky and the earth, and even if it is blocked by the eaves, it can fill the room in an instant.
Pei Changyuan's hair was almost standing on end, and the coolness on his back leaked out together with cold sweat.
"That's a lot of resentment." Xie Changlin frowned, and took a step back in disgust, "This kind of thing is disgusting to the demon world. Although I have already edited the book and asked Luo Ming to look it up, I'm afraid there is no result."
Su Chan didn't seem surprised when he heard this, and continued, "It looks like a demon but it's not a demon, and it looks like a ghost but it's not a ghost... Let alone the world of demons and demons, I'm afraid there is no such thing in the world."
Things that do not belong to the six realms and refuse to re-enter the cycle are considered the lowest of the low, and they are a little higher than the walking dead. All the behaviors they show are driven by resentment in their hearts, so most of them will rage in a short time. Invasion——Behead and kill regardless of enemy or friend.
But the person in front of him seems to have an unreasonably "gentle" temperament. If it's not that he lacks ability, he has other constraints.
"Roar..." Suddenly there was a loud noise, the monster probably didn't have a brain, and tried to crawl in through the window. One of its legs was as thick as a pillar, and it tore the small window to pieces in a blink of an eye. A gap of more than ten feet was opened in the wall, and it collapsed up and down suddenly, which scared Pei Changyuan and Mrs. Pei into a fright.
Immediately, everyone in Pei's mansion was startled, and the lanterns and candles were lit up one after another. Su Chan said, "You guys deal with it here first", and walked to the west wing with two feet, comforting, "Everyone Close the doors and windows and don't come out, it's not a big deal... If you can't sleep, just sit and wait for the cock to crow."
"..." Zhuo Yuemen watched Su Chan's back, but there was only one sentence in his heart, "Sneaking so fast."
After the wall collapsed, the monster finally showed its full appearance under Viroxiang, like a huge spider - but it was born so unreasonably and unreasonably, it looked more like a crab at first glance.Its whole body is covered with a blue-gray hard shell, its head has four eyes, but its feet are pitch-black and ink-colored, the size of a small hill, and it moves very quickly. The sound of "creaking" when it gets up is really creepy.
Even Zhuo Yuemen and Xie Changlin had goose bumps all over their bodies.
"...that's too ugly." Zhuo Yuemen snorted, remembering Su Chan in his heart.
He is a person who has extremely strict requirements on appearance, even in the process of selection examination and even going through the back door, Zhuo Yuemen adheres to the only principle - not to accept those who are not good-looking.As for Su Chan and Xie Changlin, he also reluctantly lowered his posture to coexist peacefully only because of the face of these two faces.
Therefore, in Zhuo Yuemen's eyes, there is no such thing as equality of all living beings.
"Kill it," he said in disgust, "live to take up space."
Usually they were tit for tat, but at a critical moment, Zhuo Yuemen and Xie Changlin quickly reached an agreement. The monster driven by resentment should not know how to advance or retreat, but it seemed to have consciousness, and suddenly ran away, throwing up while running. Silk closed the back road, and in a blink of an eye it became airtight.
What's more clever is that it attaches resentment to the spider silk, and as soon as it touches it, it will be entangled immediately-resentment is aimed at the creatures of the six realms. Even Xie Changlin was quite afraid.
However, this time the calculation was wrong.The spider silk is afraid of the fire, Zhuo Yuemen squeezes the formula between the fingers, the golden and red phoenix feathers under the white clothes suddenly look like a living thing, a big fire spreads out like countless palm-sized birds, but it does not hurt anything, and it goes along in the blink of an eye. After catching up with the monster, it seemed as if it was about to pounce into its mouth.
The monster wailed in pain, and fled even faster. It had no intention of fighting at all, dragging its half-scorched body, struggling to run back, as if as long as it escaped into the palace, it would be blessed by something. There is a chance.
This behavior, which is almost like a beast returning to its nest, instantly aroused the vigilance of the three people. Su Chan had just returned, and he used fire as a talisman and supplemented it with cinnabar, and burned it on the monster's body with a "嗞". At the same time, Zhuo Yuemen also stopped attacking. , Watching it escape into the palace.
It was only a short time from the appearance of this monster until the dust settled. The damage to Pei's residence was not too big, only a few walls were destroyed, and the roof of the remaining study room was covered in the middle of the cold wind.
Only then did Pei Changyuan and his wife recover from the shock, their bodies trembled like a sieve, and they supported each other to get out of the precarious room, but just now they realized that their legs were weak, they couldn't help themselves, they could only support themselves standing.
Just now, the general wind swept through the clouds, as if there was something out of thin air smashing and looting in my home, but I just couldn't see it. The sharp wind brought by it passed between the face and neck several times-even if this huge monster made a little movement, it was inevitable. A gust of bleak wind blade was brought up, and Pei Changyuan and his wife's skin and tender flesh were not covered with bruises, but there were also several small cuts.
The "creaking" roof is no longer complete, and the only two remaining walls are not enough to support so many tiles and glazed tiles. Although the damage is slow, the bricks and stones are peeling off at a speed visible to the naked eye, but they are completely unable to move. Died at the hands of a "docile" monster, but was about to be buried alive by his own glazed tiles.
As an experienced Taoist priest, Su Chan was no stranger to this kind of reaction after years of bluffing and deception.He walked back to the room again, took one hand of Mrs. Pei and the old Shangshu, the movement above his head became louder and louder, and it kept ringing in his ears. Although Su Chan was good at spells, he didn't know martial arts. That is to say, run fast, the rustling bricks and tiles hit his shoulders, he is afraid that he will be bruised and bruised again when he goes back.
"Let's go." With Su Chan's support, Pei Changyuan finally found a little sanity, and staggered to move out - he used to always feel that his study room was not big enough, and he wanted to retire and return to his hometown to buy a new house. The study room is at least for now. twice as much.But now I feel that the corner supported by the two walls alone is too big to walk. If it is twice as big, I am afraid that I will be exhausted.
There was another sound close to the ear, and the shaking became more and more frequent. Su Chan had only come in for a while, and already felt the imminent crisis. He still had time to laugh and said, "Pei Shangshu, my monthly salary has been deducted. I can't afford to compensate you."
Pei Changyuan gasped and forced a smile, "The lives of my wife and I belong to the prince... Be careful, ah!"
Before he finished speaking, the entire roof collapsed, and Su Chan threw a talisman in the air. His talisman was only effective on spider webs, and mortal objects such as bricks and stones penetrated directly. The other half was restrained by Xie Changlin—barely missed anyone.
Xie Changlin's complexion was a bit ugly, he stared at the scratches on the back of Su Chan's hand, and gave Pei Shangshu a cold look: "They are just foolish people, not worthy of your injury."
"..." If it wasn't for the "foolish people" who were frightened first and made mistakes later, Pei Changyuan would definitely let Xie Changlin know what it means to be a "scholar" and what it means to be "not bad".
After all the people left the study, the rubble fell to the ground, raising a cloud of dust, and by the way buried Pei Changyuan's papers for the morning court tomorrow.
The dignified Minister of Rituals stood in disgrace in his yard, but fortunately no one was injured or injured. Madam was finally relieved after being blown by the cold wind. Although her face had not fully recovered, she was still pale and scary, but at least she could move her hands and feet. Su confessed a blessing and said, "Thank you, my lord, for saving my life."
What she said was sincere, but it was a pity that her fear had not diminished. Mrs. Pei naturally understood that Su Chan was pure and kind by nature, but this did not prevent the fate of a disaster star, and she was lonely and widowed. With scars left, he was probably running around for half a night. At this time, the cold wind hit him, and he seemed a little cold. He was rubbing his hands and whispering to the devil.
"My lord...the kitchen has not been affected. There should be some lotus seed soup I stewed in the middle of the night. Please invite the lord and the others to sit in the inner hall. I will go to the hot spot to eat. I have been busy all night, so I should be hungry." Mrs. Pei's posture was demure, and in a blink of an eye she lost her bewilderment after being frightened, and said, "Relax yourself, you'll be fine."
Pei Changyuan nodded and watched his wife leave.
"There's lotus seed soup... Did you hear that?" Su Chan looked at Xie Changlin happily, his current image can be said to be in a mess, but there is another kind of charm in this mess, the tears at the corners of his eyes are thin At one point, the light and the moon also faded away, and there was a kind of leisurely carefreeness in the rags, and he talked to Xie Changlin, "Ah Heng has tasted Mrs. Pei's handicraft once, and it is said that the cakes and soups are very delicious."
In fact, Xie Changlin doesn't quite understand... From the first half of the night to the second half of the night, won't this person last?
"Do you still want to stay here?" Zhuo Yuemen raised his sleeves and held his hands. From the top of his hair to the soles of his shoes, he was meticulous, as if he had just bathed and changed his clothes. His boss stood reluctantly among the ruins, wishing he could float in the air. Get away from the grit, dust and hassle of this place.
"What's the rush?" Su Chan laughed, "The cock will be crowing soon, and at dawn, this thing will not dare to act rashly, not to mention, it has been lurking in the palace for so long, and it has hundreds of thousands of rations to eat. If you have to go out to look for food... I guess you won't break the rules today."
He pointed to the sparse spider web on top of his head with reason, and said, "What's more, these things should go away, the monster looks like a mother's womb, if there are children and grandchildren, they must crawl along the spider web, Didn’t what we did today fall short of success?”
"..." Zhuo Yuemen wanted to chop off his head, just for decoration.
Pei Changyuan's hair was almost standing on end, and the coolness on his back leaked out together with cold sweat.
"That's a lot of resentment." Xie Changlin frowned, and took a step back in disgust, "This kind of thing is disgusting to the demon world. Although I have already edited the book and asked Luo Ming to look it up, I'm afraid there is no result."
