[Scholar Who Walks the Night] You Zhichuan

The ghost brought Yue Zhao back to the underground palace before daylight.

The underground palace is protected from sunlight, but because it is a hidden residence for the world, Yue Zhao is the only person who has lived in it for hundreds of years except ghosts.

She followed the ghost into the underground palace, and looked around, except for the two men who were bleeding blood hanging beside the main seat above, which was a bit disturbing, the others met Yue Zhao's requirements.

She looked at the ghost who was already seated and asked, "Is there a room here?"

The ghost nodded, pointed to a small path in the depths, and replied: "There are vacant rooms inside, you can choose."

Yue Zhao nodded, and didn't look for the room first, but walked to the main seat and looked down at the celadon cup in the center of the table.

The two people hanging above did not know whether they were alive or dead, their necks and wrists were cut open by sharp weapons, and the dark red blood slowly flowed down the veins, and all of them fell into the porcelain cup.The two of them were probably hung for a while, and the blood was almost drained. The crimson liquid filled the palm-sized porcelain cup.

The ghost held Yue Zhao's wrist, brought her closer to him, and asked her, "Are you afraid?"

Before, Yue Zhao circled his hands to communicate with him, and now he has learned it well.For hundreds of years, Yue Zhao was the only person who wanted to live in the underground palace, and the ghost's eyes were shining with excitement that he had never noticed - just like a child who made new friends and wanted to share everything he had with her. Afraid of scaring people away.

Yue Zhao took advantage of the situation and sat beside him, looking at the flickering light in the beauty's eyes, he didn't know whether to obey his heart and say he wasn't afraid, or to follow the beauty's wishes and express a little fear.

In addition, in fact, the ghost does not need to have physical contact with her to communicate.After the first physical contact to complete the spirit-soul docking, the spirits of both parties have already recorded each other's breath, and only need to use a little spiritual power to build a spiritual link.Not to mention that Yue Zhao directly invaded his spiritual mansion, and even though he got out in time, he still left some marks unavoidably.

These imprints will allow the link between them to be formed spontaneously, and Yue Zhao does not even need to pull and build it, so now even if the two have no physical contact, they can communicate as long as the distance is appropriate.

Yue Zhao thought about it and still didn't tell him about it, it would be too troublesome to explain, anyway, he will realize it later.She didn't answer the ghost's question directly, she just picked up the porcelain cup with her free hand and handed it to him, "Eat first, then we'll talk after eating."

The ghost took the porcelain cup and put it close to his thin lips. The porcelain cup tilted, his throat rolled slightly, and he divided the blood into four mouthfuls and drank it.Yue Zhao felt that he was very pretty when he was eating, but it would be better if those eyes were not staring at her all the time.

"Let's talk when we're full." After the ghost finished eating, Yue Zhao put the empty porcelain cup back to its original place and began to negotiate terms with him, "I don't know how much blood you need every day, but I can only offer - so much." She stretched out her thumb and forefinger, making a short comparison.

It's a joke, the monk's blood contains spiritual power, she has to bleed a lot every day, should she still practice.

The ghost stretched out his hand, imitating her to make a length comparison, "How much is this?"

Yue Zhao thought about it, and kept the length in her hand, "It's so high." Then she made a circle with those two fingers, "It's so wide." Finally she looked at the ghost, "I will give you a cup like this every day."

The ghost sneered and grabbed her wrist tightly, "Are you teasing me?"

Yue Zhao was silent, feeling unable to refute this sentence, after all, she also thought that she was a provocateur now, so she put her hand to his lips, "Inspect the goods to see if it's worth it?"

The ghost frowned at her, and Yue Zhao moved his hand forward again, almost touching his lips.

The wrist in front of him is as delicate as white jade, and the blue blood vessels are agitating under the thin layer of flesh, with a fresh breath.He suddenly smelled the cold fragrance again, opened his lips as if bewitched, pressed his sharp fangs against the white wrist and bit it slightly forcefully, the warm blood overflowed, and it was extremely dazzling on the wrist.

Red is red, white is white.

He clenched Yue Zhao's wrist and sucked, the blood was also licked away, the blood containing fire spiritual power rolled into the esophagus, warming the heart and lungs.

The ghost licked the wound on her wrist for a while, Yue Zhao's blood tasted much lighter than other people's blood, and of course it was more delicious.To the vampire, she tasted like sweet water, the only one in his long life.

He felt relieved at once, and no longer struggled with how much to take every day, anyway, he didn't rely on this little blood to feed his hunger.

The two blood holes on Yue Zhao's wrist healed quickly. The ghost rubbed the smooth and warm skin, looked at her and said, "It's worth it." Special treatment.

Yue Zhao nodded, "Then it's settled, I will provide you with this amount every day until I leave here."

"Let me introduce myself, my name is Yue Zhao, Zhao like the sun and the moon."

Although he knew that the writing systems of the two were different, Yue Zhao still took Gui's hand and wrote his name on his palm, "I'm still injured, I guess I will start retreat tomorrow, don't bother me during this period."

The ghost watched the light-white finger write and draw in his palm.There are thin calluses on her fingertips, but they don't feel rough when they touch the soft palms, but give people a sense of stability.

Weird feeling, strange people.

The ghost shifted his gaze from her hands to her face: "Retreat? How long will it take?"

Yue Zhao thought about it, and estimated the time, "About... seventy years? I'm not sure, it might take longer." Seeing the ghost's face suddenly darken, she hurriedly added, "At most 100 years! 100 years is definitely coming!"

The ghost grabbed her hand and said in a serious tone, "So I won't be able to drink your blood for at least 100 years."

The ghost who just found a stable food reserve and was facing food shortage began to reflect on whether he was too indulgent, because this person is a bit special and her blood is delicious, so he will guard her for 100 years?

wishful thinking.

He lowered his body close to her neck, and when he bared his fangs, a warm hand pressed against his chest.The ghost looked up, and met Yue Zhao's dark golden eyes with a smile.

She smiled: "Don't be angry, I'm injured now, and the blood doesn't taste that good. You might as well wait until I recover and give you another full meal."

Yue Zhao drew him a big cake without any psychological burden. It is true that she will give him a full meal after she leaves customs, but she has no way of guaranteeing whether the blood will taste better after her body recovers. After all, she You never drank your own blood, did you?

The ghost squinted his eyes, his tone was not as cold as before but still bad, "But this is 100 years."

It sounded like he wasn't so angry anymore, Yue Zhao continued to coax him by drawing big cakes, "You know, a mere 100 years is nothing to us."

The ghost frowned at her.Yue Zhao still had the same smiling face. Although the woman looked smiling, it always reminded people of a hidden knife in her smile.

The ghost only thinks that this woman is really good at pushing her feet, but she is well versed in the way of getting along, and when talking with people, she can hold the distance just right, neither too close to make people annoying, nor to give people a sense of alienation.

They had just met, and it was just a mutually beneficial relationship, but the ghost felt that getting along with her was much more comfortable than communicating with those princes and ministers.

The ghost then compromised again.He raised his hand to press the back of Yue Zhao's neck and pressed him down, their foreheads touched together, he looked straight into the golden mist, and didn't speak for a while.

Yue Zhao also played this game of not speaking and not moving with him.His bony hand was a little cold, and he rubbed it from time to time as it stuck to the back of her neck.

It stands to reason that such a beauty is getting close to you, touching her forehead and touching the back of her neck, and the two of them are so close, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a little ambiguity between lovers.

But Yue Zhao didn't think so, she even felt that the ghost was teasing the cat.She won't talk about sticking her forehead, what's wrong with touching the back of people's necks.

Yue Zhao: Bah, what am I talking about.

Feeling that Yue Zhao's aura is getting colder and colder, I don't know what she is thinking.The ghost pinched the back of her neck again, and said in a very indulgent tone, "Okay, then wait for you to leave the customs, but don't make me wait too long, life here is very lonely."

Yue Zhao, who has seen decades of retreat as a normal thing, doesn't understand this kind of loneliness very well, but this does not prevent her from drawing big cakes to coax beauties.She tilted her head back a little distance, and then lightly knocked the ghost's forehead with her forehead, assuring him, "Don't worry, I will definitely come out in at most 100 years."

The ghost chuckled and ignored her.

On the second day, Yue Zhao began to prepare for the retreat.

She found an empty room in the deepest part of the underground palace as a secret room for retreat, and after choosing the location, she began to set up numerous restrictions.

She doesn't believe in ghosts, or she only believes in herself here.Her goal has always been to return to the realm of cultivating immortals, to go back to the teacher's gate, and she must protect herself before finding a way to go back.

During the discussion last night, Yue Zhao managed to coax the beauty with a drop of blood essence, and asked him to protect the Dharma for a while during her retreat.But Yue Zhao felt that it was fine for him not to be a demon and come in to find her, and it would be bad if he accidentally disrupted her plan.

Thinking about it, Yue Zhao added another layer of restrictions on the stone wall.

When Yuezhao was busy practicing in seclusion, the ghost was not idle. The rations that were originally at his mouth were now said to be hidden for 100 years.

He didn't let off the eldest son Zhenxian who offended him before.The ghost killed the prince and all the ministers who resisted him, and hung his head on a flagpole and erected it at the city gate for the people who came and went to criticize.

Hearing such evil deeds, the well-informed Yue Zhao couldn't help but smack his lips.

Yue Zhao: Wow, he is a ruthless person.

But she can't control this matter, and she has no position to control it. Just arranging various formation restrictions in the underground palace where the aura is thin has already consumed too much of her mind.So after everything was ready, Yue Zhao closed the cave and began to meditate.

However, after only a few hours in meditation, there were fragments of bitter cries reaching her ears.Yue Zhao felt that he was really unlucky, otherwise, no matter how much cold water he drank, his teeth would be stuck.

Yue Zhao: Ah, so annoying.

She decides to go out and see what happened, but by the time she arrives at the scene of the tragedy it's over.

A woman was lying on the ground, not breathing.Yue Zhao walked over to have a look, and found that her body was still warm, and there were still tears in the corners of her eyes, she must have just died.

Seeing the bite mark on the side of the woman's neck, Yue Zhao wondered if it was a ghost bite, and the next second he saw the ghost who was crushed on the ground by a huge boulder and passed out.

Yue Zhao: ...

She silently overturned her guess, took out the jade bottle containing the recovery liquid from the storage bag, and poured a few drops on the woman's neck.

These recovery liquids were obtained by accident in her early years, and they have the effect of removing blood stasis and strengthening muscles.In recent years, Yue Zhao has rarely used it to improve his cultivation base, but he didn't expect it to be useful here.

Watching the wound on the woman's neck gradually heal, Yue Zhao squatted down to wipe off the tears on her face, and rubbed away her frowning brows with his fingertips.

"Girls, even if they leave, they should be beautiful."

Yue Zhao thought of the pretty girls in the master's school, some of them were about the same age as the woman in front of him, and in Yue Zhao's eyes, they were all children.

"Although I don't know what happened to you, I hope everything goes well in your next life, little girl."

She let out a long sigh, straightened the woman's messy hair, took out another piece of Yunluo brocade and spread it on the ground, hugged her on it, and read a few passages of past lives.

Yue Zhao has always been tolerant towards girls, but his attitude towards men is very general, unless the other party is good-looking.The ghost just met this standard, so she didn't ignore him, and if he was as indifferent as Yue Zhao, he would definitely walk away.

Yue Zhao walked up to him and kicked the boulder away, helped him up and examined him carefully, and found that he was just in a coma and had no other injuries.She breathed a sigh of relief, cut her fingertips and forced a drop of blood into the ghost's mouth, then bent her legs and hugged him to the main seat.

Yue Zhao's time is also very tight, there is no way for him to go back to the secret room when he wakes up.Looking at the ghost with a calm face, she suddenly remembered that his spiritual mansion was undefended, so she drew a spell on his forehead with her bleeding finger.

The scarlet mark gradually faded away, apparently Yue Zhao didn't receive any repulsion when he cast the spell.She raised her eyebrows, thinking that he would be a little defensive after the last soul-soul connection, but she didn't expect to be defensive against her.

Yue Zhao didn't think about whether he knew the methods to protect the spirit palace. In their cultivation world, their parents would teach them relevant skills at the beginning of their cultivation.In addition, Yue Zhao had seen the master who had seen ghosts before, in her opinion, how could the apprentice not know the basic skills that the master would know, so she took it for granted that ghosts knew these skills.

Then why are you still unguarded against her?

It's really hard to guess the beauty's mind.

She poked the ghost twice on the forehead, and said softly: "Forget it, I'll ask you when I leave the customs, see you in 100 years."

The author has something to say:

Yue Zhao: Well, I thought I was special. It turned out that he didn't learn general skills well.
