Treasure Hunt

Jiang Yu and the two jumped off the city gate and walked into the city.The surrounding shops were all closed. There were still a few hawkers setting up stalls in the town before, but there was nothing on both sides of Xincheng.There are fewer people on the street than there were in Yanyi Town before.The wind was blowing, and some dilapidated wine flags on the second floor of the tavern were floating in the air, looking a little depressed.

Jiang and Nan walked aimlessly on the street.Presumably, it was also because of the evil spirits in recent days, most people in the city packed up and hid in other towns for refuge.

Nan Ci looked up at the sky, it was already a little dark.At this point, Nanci said: "Ayu, it's getting late, let's find an inn first."

Jiang Yu nodded. They hadn't been idle all day today. They first went to the south of the snow mountain to find Xuedingcui, and then flew for a while.I am indeed a little tired.Besides, evil spirits mostly come out at night.Now they should find a place to have a good rest and recharge their energy, perhaps, to wait for that evil spirit to come out to do evil again.

The two walked into an inn, and the lobby was empty.There was only one clerk standing at the counter.

Jiang Yu walked to the reception desk and said, "One is the upper room."

The boy looked up and saw two men.Judging by the clothes, he should be a kid from a rich family.He grinned and said, "My lords! Please go upstairs!"

Originally, the boy was still complaining in his heart, but these days mummies always appeared in the city for no reason, causing people to panic. The innkeeper also packed up his things and went to other towns, but he stayed here to look after the shop.Although the wages were doubled, the clerk was still uneasy. Now that there were two dudes living in the shop, his mind became active.

"My lord, take a look." The boy led Jiang Yu to the second floor and opened a door, saying, "This is the best room in our store."

Jiang Yu walked in, nodded to the boy, and signaled him to go out.The little guy took the money Nanci handed over, and closed the door for the two of them with a flattering expression.

At night, Jiang Yu was sitting on the bed with his eyes closed to rest.Suddenly, I heard movement on the stairs outside the door!

Just as he was about to get up, Nan Ci pressed him down.

"Hush -- hold your breath!" Nan Ci whispered.

Jiang Yu did as he said, and Nanci softly pulled the brocade quilt beside them and covered them.

After a while, someone opened the door and came in.

Nan Ci quietly lifted a small piece of the quilt, and peeked out - the person who came was the guy in the shop!

The boy saw that there was no movement on the bed, so he tiptoed to the hanger where Nan Ci's robe was hanging.The man reached out and quickly searched the clothes on the hanger.It seems to touch something, take it out and have a look.The man bared his teeth and smiled, and he really found the purse!

Before turning around, the boy's face suddenly changed.A sharp sword fell on his shoulder at some point!

Sitting on the bed, Jiang Yu looked at the boy who was held by Nan Ci with a sword on his neck, and shook his head, so he was blinded by money?Actually stole from their heads?

Jiang Yu lit the oil lamp in the air, which immediately lit up the whole room.

Nanci looked at the boy with a smile and said, "What are you holding?"

As soon as these words came out, the man was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and knelt down on the ground with a plop.

"Hero, spare your life! Hero, spare your life! The little one... the little one deserves to die!" The boy said, handing over the money bag with trembling hands.

Nanci reached out to take it and put away the money bag.Then he glanced at the people on the ground in disgust, and said coldly: "Get lost."

Hearing this, the boy said, "Thank you, hero! Thank you...thank you, hero!" He ran out of the room while scrambling.

Nan Ci put away his shock and looked at Jiang Yu.

"Ah!!!" Before Nanci could speak, a loud cry came from downstairs.

It belonged to the boy just now!

Jiang and Nan looked at each other.They ran towards the door in unison.Nanci also took the opportunity to take the clothes hanger and put on the outer shirt and put it on.

When the two went down to the lobby, the young man was sitting on the stairs trembling.

Jiang Yu hurried up and asked, "What's wrong with you?!"

The boy stretched out his fingers tremblingly, with a flustered expression, he said, "There is...a corpse... just now... there was a white shadow."

Jiang Yu looked in the direction of the guy's finger, and sure enough, he saw a person lying on the dining table by the window.Jiang Yu walked over, looked at the corpse, and said, "The sharp weapon hit the heart from behind, killing him with one blow."

Jiang and Nan looked at each other, it seemed that the evil spirit had appeared!

Nanci turned around, looked at the boy, and said, "What kind of white shadow can you see clearly?"

"Just... just a group of white shadows... whoosh, and then flew out of the window. There is... a ghost!!" The boy spoke intermittently, obviously frightened.

Hearing the words, Nan Ci ignored the little guy and turned around and went out of the window.Seeing this, Jiang Yu also rushed out.

The two jumped onto the beams of the house and chased each other in east and west directions.

Jiang Yu chased eastward at top speed, and a green light flashed under his feet.But after chasing for more than ten kilometers, Jiang Yu didn't see any white shadows.Isn't it to the east?I don't know what's going on with Nanci.Jiang Yu had already chased to the poplar forest outside the city, but he still didn't find anything unusual.Then he used lightness kung fu and flew back.

When he reached the door of the inn, Jiang Yu jumped off the beam.Walking into the inn, Nan Ci was already in the lobby of the inn.

Hearing footsteps behind him, Nan Ci turned his head, saw Jiang Yu, and said in a deep voice, "The clerk in the store is dead."

What?died? !

Nan Ci turned to make way for Jiang Yu, and Jiang Yu saw that the place where the boy was sitting at the top of the stairs had been drained of blood and turned into a mummy!The skin is sunken, and it can only be seen vaguely from the clothes that it should be the guy in the shop.

Jiang Yu frowned and said, "Tune the tiger away from the mountain?"

Nanci shook his head and said, "Probably not. Look at the corpse next to the bed. It hasn't been drained of blood. So it shouldn't be caused by one thing."

"Could it be that there are two evil spirits in this place?!" Jiang Yu's eyes were full of sarcasm.Two evil spirits?Tch, it's really a wave of unrest and another wave... Please be at peace!

Nanci nodded, and said, "When I first went to the west, although I didn't find any evil spirits, I always felt that the further west I went, the more negative energy I felt."

Jiang Yu heard the sound and said, "What do you think?"

Nan Ci stretched out two fingers, and said: "In the west, there are two restaurants, an inn, a pawn shop, and a mansion. These places are the most yin. I suspect that evil spirits are hiding somewhere in them.

Jiang Yu nodded and said, "Let's go and have a look now."

Nanci smiled and said, "No hurry, it's already late at night, it's not too late to go tomorrow morning."

When Jiang Yu heard this, he had no objection, turned around and wanted to go upstairs.As for the two corpses in the lobby, he naturally handed them over to Nan Ci for disposal.

Nanci thought for a while, and finally took out the corpse powder from the storage bag, and sprinkled it on the two corpses.In a moment, the two bodies were reduced to ashes.Only a piece of gray-white dust was left in place.

Once the wind blows, there is no trace.

The next day, when Jiang Yu woke up, Nanci was no longer by his side.As soon as Jiang Yu got up and got dressed, Nanci pushed the door in with breakfast.

There is no way, the clerk in the store was killed, and they have to do the cooking work by themselves.

Seeing that Jiang Yu had gotten up, Nan Ci said, "Hurry up and wash up, come over for breakfast."

Jiang Yu walked to the bed, looked at the simple meals and porridge on the table, raised an eyebrow, and said, "You made it?"

Nanci nodded, and said with a smile: "There is nothing in the kitchen, and the cooking is simple, you can try it."

Jiang Yu took his seat after washing up, looked at the food that looked good, and asked curiously, "Why haven't I seen you cook it on the mountain before?" When these words came out, both of them were taken aback.Ever since they met again, the two of them tacitly never mentioned the events of that year again.Jiang Yu was also a little annoyed at himself, why was he talking about it politely?

Nanci rubbed his nose and said, "I learned it when I was traveling all these years, and I haven't made it for a long time. Hey, this is the pearl white jade soup I made. Would you like it if you try it?" Indeed, it was in the mountains , There are dedicated seniors who are responsible for the diet, and they haven't bothered about it.Cooking was learned from Shui Miao later.At that time, he lived temporarily in the East China Sea, drinking all day to relieve his worries, depressed and depressed.Seeing his appearance, Shui Miao thought of another way to divert his attention, so she taught him how to cook with great enthusiasm.

Jiang Yu also felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so he quickly picked up a spoon to cover it up.Scooped a spoonful of porridge into the mouth...

"Pfft..." Jiang Yu quickly spit out the porridge in his mouth in an extremely unsightly gesture, and said, "Why is it so salty?!" Jiang Yu felt like he was drinking salt.

Nanci also picked up the chopsticks to pick up a mouthful of vegetables, chewed them in his mouth, swallowed them, and said, "It's okay...not as salty as you said..."

Jiang Yu couldn't help asking, "How much salt did you put in this porridge?"

"It's not much...eight and a half spoonfuls. I was afraid that you might not be used to too salty food, so I didn't dare to put more. According to the rules, you should put ten spoonfuls." Nanci said aggrievedly.

Eight and a half spoonfuls...a bowl of porridge...Jiang Yu can be sure that he just scooped up a spoonful of salt to drink...

Jiang Yu asked with a sad face, "Who did you learn to cook from..."

"I learned from Sishui. He said that the taste of my cooking is a bit bland." Nan Ci looked innocent.

Jiang Yu couldn't help covering his face, he really didn't expect Shui Miao to be such a serious person...

In fact, it's no wonder Shui Miao, the Dragon Clan has been living in the sea and is not very sensitive to salty taste, so Shui Miao usually puts more than ten spoons of salt in cooking.

In the end, Jiang Yu really couldn't eat those meals, so he took out a piece of dry food from the storage bag, and chewed it resignedly.
