Penglai delusion

The earliest record about Chixing was connected with mirage.

——The first appearance of Chichen reflects the northwest.In response to the mirage, its territory belongs to the demon family, which is almost extinct.

At that time, although Yan Rong was on the cure, he was lingering on the sick bed for a long time.Not long after his daughter Yan Yi took over the government, red stars appeared in the sky, and great demons appeared in the West Sea.

The demon head was transformed by a mirage.

Later, Fang Xun, who was just a fledgling, went to the West Sea in person to tidy up the monster and do something that even the monster king had to do. Only then did he become famous in the first battle and lay the foundation for his subsequent centralization of power.

Phantoms are rare at first, and after this incident, there is no record in history.

And the lilac smell on Ji Ye's body was similar to that of looking at flowers in the fog, and it was very similar to mirage.

It is said in Xi Momo's "Miscellaneous Views" that the Mirage people have the custom of tattooing their faces.The ornamentation is used to straighten the head, and the stabbing alone is used for clear knowledge, so that the soul after death will not be lost in the way of the ghost country, and go straight to the ruins, going forward without hesitation.

Ji Ye didn't have facial tattoos, so Xi Mo guessed that he was a stray hybrid.

Lu Jiayuan's jaw was about to drop when he listened to everyone's eloquence.

Xi Mo came to a conclusion, "So, I have to make some preparations."

It may be true as Cui Yangqing said, the disaster of the red star has something to do with Ji Ye.

... Ning Liancheng can't be disadvantaged.

"Although I didn't find Jian Xuzi, this is still a little gain, and I can transport it back to the faction." Xi Mo thought seriously, "Senior brother, what do you think?"

Lu Jiayuan hesitated for a moment, "Actually, Xiao Yezi is a matter of the monster clan, I guessed it a long time ago."

"But he didn't say it, and I didn't mention it either." As he said that, he put down the curtain and covered Ji Ye, "I just think that this kid is probably a half-breed, with low demon power, and he doesn't know how to hide it, so he was oppressed terribly."

Xi Mo understood.

He thought about it, so he didn't say anything, just watched Lu Jiayuan take out a green-glazed chicken leg pot and a pair of jade ear cups from the drawer under the couch, "Come on, let him fall asleep, let's go drink."

I went to light the fire cage under the fence, leaned against the woodpile next to me with the wine, peeled off the silk cloth, slapped the mud seal, peeled off the corn leaves and oil paper, opened the jar, and filled a glass first. Handed over.

Xi Mo took the wine glass and sat down beside him.

"This is my first time brewing wine." Lu Jiayuan poured another glass, took a sip, and said with a little embarrassment, "The craftsmanship is not good, it's not as skillful as your junior brother, and it took a lot of brewing to get this jar."

Xi Mo held the cup and looked at it, the wine swayed under the fire with clear and bright waves, and it was as rich as jujube nectar.

"It's very difficult to make wolfberry wine." He said sincerely, "Brother is amazing, it looks much better than the first time I made it."

"Really?" Lu Jiayuan had already gulped down a glass, but there was a tinge of red on his face, and a little dimple seemed to be ripe.

"Senior brother, the wound is not healed yet, so drink less." Xi Mo saw that he had something on his mind, and he wanted to get drunk to express his sorrow, "Or I'll go get some appetizers, and just eat."

"No, there's no need." Lu Jiayuan narrowed his eyes and smiled, "It's so easy to have a drink. If you don't want anything else, just drink."

As he spoke, he drank another glass of wine.

It wasn't until three cups were down that I opened my mouth, "I can't say anything about Xiao Yezi."

Xi Mo didn't make a sound, only saw that the fire sparks were faint at first, but now they splashed out of the bamboo cage together with the scorched and bitter aroma of the white elm branches.

"To be honest, I never hated monsters." Lu Jiayuan smacked his lips, "There used to be many monsters near our house, and they treated me very well."

Xi Mo took a sip of the wolfberry wine.Too much bitterness, not enough sweetness, the root of the tongue is almost numb, and only a little bit of coolness turns on the tip of the tongue.

Lu Jiayuan said again, "I like monsters, but I can't talk to people. After all, there have been contradictions between monsters since ancient times. If I say it, it will be regarded as ulterior motives."

Xi Mo nodded, "As senior brother said, there are indeed many good monsters, especially mixed races. There are many kind people."

He said, "I also... like demons very much."

But I think that demon doesn't know when he will like me.

A smile finally appeared between Lu Jiayuan's eyebrows, "I wouldn't dare to say such things in the pie if I was killed. If I let my senior sister hear it, I'm afraid she will make fish soup for me on the spot."

He was very drunk, and talked about his affairs drunkenly, "The reason why I was born was because of the demon."

"I am originally from Youzhou. My family lives at the foot of Ximin Mountain and I have been farming for generations."

"My mother was originally a young lady from a rich family. She accidentally fell into trouble and was rescued by a demon. She saved her life and married my father. But her health was at the root of her illness and she was very weak. My father didn't want her to be born. Child, but she firmly believes that love can move God, so she must give birth. So one life for another, she is gone, and I am here."

"After that, Dad didn't continue. He just farmed the fields day and night by himself, and he wanted to send me to Penglai, thousands of miles away." Lu Jiayuan was very depressed, "At that time, I thought that Dongzhou was so far away that I might never return It’s coming. But Dad told me—don’t be afraid, you are the only one in the village who can do this. You are the hope of the whole village.”

"Then what can I do, I can only cry."

"I just want to stay at home and farm for the old man. I don't want to go anywhere."

"Several times I thought I was going to die across the sea. I thought the old man was so alone, he must be very sad when I died."

"I can't let the old man down."

"Before sending me to Yangzhou, he said that I must have a good future. If I unfortunately die, he will renew the marriage. No matter whether he has a son or a daughter, he still calls me by my name."

"He will only have me as a child in his life."

"I know that he has never been able to comfort people, he only speaks the truth."

"But I still hate it."

"At that time, I didn't understand how important cultivating immortals was to him." Lu Jiayuan's eyes reflected the clear sky, and his eyes were far away, as if he saw the land of his hometown, "But I understand now."

"That's true, that's hope," he said.

Xi Mo thought, hope?

It is a flower cultivated by watering flesh and blood in despair.

Painful and beautiful.

But when you look at it, you completely forget about the pain, and you are finally able to live in desperation.

"Regard hope!" Lu Jiayuan raised his glass to the fire.

Xi Mo smiled lowly, and raised his glasses to each other, "Well, I hope."

The wine in the jar seemed to be endless, the two of them drank it for an unknown amount of time, and then rolled between the firewood and fell asleep.

When Xi Mo woke up, he found that he had been moved into the house.She was lying squarely on the couch, with a warm towel on her forehead.

Lu Jiayuan turned around, "I'm awake, I was just about to call you."

He dimpled slightly, "It's past noon, and the Kanjiang Temple is about to open, so don't sleep through the bazaar."

Xi Mo got up to tidy up, "Aren't senior brothers coming together?"

"Isn't Xiao Yezi still in a coma? I'll wait for him to wake up and go together." Lu Jiayuan said comfortingly, "His condition is better than I thought, and he will be able to go to the ground in a while."

The two looked at each other for a while, and smiled tacitly.

Xi Mo went out by himself, and at a glance, he felt that the thin mist that had fainted in the second half of last night had turned into a thick snow fog.

He walked straight to the city, but when he didn't want to cross the forest road, he ran into Lu Yuxiao whose feet were flimsy.

The man's bird eyes were flushed, and he was even tearful, "Brother Xi, I came to look for you early in the morning, but I encountered a ghost hitting the wall, and I forgot to bring the talisman. Seeing a living person, I am so miserable!"

Xi Mo: It's okay for ghosts to hit the wall.

Seeing that he was dizzy from alcohol and looked a little hangover, he comforted him, "Brother Lu, don't worry, we can always find something together."

Before the words fell, the man fell straight into his arms.

Xi Mo took the pulse with his hand, and felt that he was really drunk and distracted, so he only fed a Qingxin pill, then lifted him up with one arm, walked away against the wind, and landed in front of the city gate smoothly.

After entering the city, Xi Mo went to Changchun Tower first.When I arrived at the place, I greeted the clerk sitting in the store, and found out that Lu Yuxiao really got drunk here after the meeting last night, and the room he opened was empty all night.

"The young master said he was waiting for someone, but he didn't come after the hour, so he just wandered out on his own, and the younger ones were not allowed to accompany..." The guy had a red face and said in a rough voice, "This little son ,Do you want……"

"No, thank you very much." Xi Mo straightly helped Lu Yuxiao into the upper room, put him on the couch, and returned his pulse again, then twisted out a dried 萐普, and placed it among others.The watcher's breathing intensified instantly, the tip of his nose shrugged a few times, and he sneezed and sat up.

"Brother Lu, are you feeling better?"

Lu Yuxiao stared blankly, looking confused, but most of the bloodshot eyes had receded.

"Where... where is this?"

"Turn back." Xi Mo said, "Brother Lu, let's take a break first. I'll come see you later."

Lu Yuxiao stared blankly at him getting up, "Brother Xi, did you stay with my cousin again yesterday? His little dilapidated house didn't suffocate you to death, did it?"

"It's okay." Xi Mo smiled, "We drank outside last night and didn't go into the house."

"...Oh, I'm so angry." Lu Yuxiao rubbed his brows, "How could I be missing out on drinking?"

"One more drink with Brother Lu." Xi Mo said familiarly, "I will start brewing wine today, and I will give it as a New Year's gift."

"Okay, okay, it's a deal!" Lu Yuxiao was really happy, and just about to reach out to pat someone's face, when he touched Xi Mo's friendly smile, his heart was inexplicably excited, but he gave up.

By the time Xi Modeng reached the top of Guanjiang Mountain, the bazaar had already been held for a long time.

Jiang Baiyun robe is the best pass.When he arrived at the mountain gate, he didn't need to show anything, and was directly let in by the guards respectfully.

Hearing the soft ringing of a copper bell from a distance, the commotion inside the stone wall dissipated.

Xi Mo walked around the osmanthus screen wall, and looked at the center of the platform, beside the sacrificial table, a master of ceremonies wearing a sash was opening a red toon box, revealing a green and golden inkstone.

"The inkstone with the eyebrow pattern in the old pit, the ray engraved on it, is a sign of perseverance and perseverance." The master of ceremonies paused, "It's Miss Cui's old thing."

There was a momentary chaos in front of the hall.

The bidders blindly chased the high price, and finally caught up with Yisheng Jingu.Listening to the whispers around is the most expensive today.

But I heard a chuckle coming from outside the sky, "Gold is so boring. It's better to barter."

The sound moves with the wind.The box in the host's hand was immediately swept away by a demonic wind, and a lion's eye pearl was replaced.

There was an uproar immediately under the steps.

A gray figure in a cloak stepped on the top of the ancestral hall, carrying a scythe on his shoulders, only showing a bent chin, smiling like a roll.

"Brother Ning, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you look so handsome." The man didn't even show his eyes, but his tone was very sincere, "It's so cold, why don't you take a bath with me for a few days? The soup is pretty good, maybe we can make our suzerain out after soaking it, and have a good time with the wine."

Ning Liancheng stood on the top of the sweet-scented osmanthus crown on the right side of the ancestral hall, holding a sword and smiling slightly, "Thank you for the kindness of the palace master, I will not accompany you."

Xi Mo knew who this person was.

"Good boy, are you tired of catching our demon clan all day long?" Palace Master Linyuan smiled unabated, "However, I have taken back those in the stronghold today. I came here to let you know, thank you for the kindness of Shuangbi not killing you." .”

Through the hood, he tapped his forehead again, his finger was shining brightly, and a ring with flying fish pattern was shining brightly, "Since Yanling's longan is worthy of receiving it, Tan Huai's is disrespectful."

Xi Mo thought, this person is so happy, probably because all the demon cultivators who don't know the stronghold have been fed the understanding pill.

He stepped forward to meet the scattered crowd, and when he was about to enter the Baosha, he caught a glimpse of Cui Yangqing stepping gracefully on the owl's tail behind Palace Mistress Linyuan, with two swords in hand, ready to strike.

"Let's talk about it first. If you are caught in an ambush next time, you must go with me." Linyuan Palace was subjective and said to Ning Liancheng sincerely, "I won't let you this time." I've become the second in command. How about the Pope directing you to be the palace lord—on an equal footing with me?"

Ning Liancheng just kept smiling.

Palace Master Linyuan sighed with a smile, "All right, all right, I understand."

Then he said to Cui Yangqing, "Little girl over there, put away your knife. I have always cherished talents, if you break your hands, you will not be held responsible."

He lightened his jaw, as if looking at him carefully, "However, if you can be as powerful as your little love, we Kunlun will accept it."

Cui Yangqing didn't make a sound, slashed with two knives, and cut off half of his skull with the hood.

That Xiang turned around to avoid it, the hood was split up to his shoulders, but he managed to keep his head, and only his long ink-splashed hair flew out of the hole in an instant.

Then he raised his head and laughed.The air in the chest goes straight to the sky.

"It's very good, little girl." He nodded and said, "It's also considered to be a palace master."

At that time, there was a beeping in the sky.

Palace Master Linyuan stretched his waist, expressing his regret, "It's time, I don't want to play anymore, it's time to go back to sleep."

Then he left with Cui Yangqing's inkstone in his hand, still muttering, "Oh, he definitely doesn't want to send the cub, maybe he will scold me...then give it to the next door."

There was another gust of wind, and it disappeared immediately.

Ning Liancheng walked away in the air, and just met Cui Yangqing, "Senior sister, there is no need to chase. He dared to go to the meeting alone, and he made a lot of nonsense here, so he will definitely not fight unprepared."

After saying that, they fell to the platform, only to see Xi Mo coming out from the corner, "Hey, is it? Then he might be poisoned too."

Ning Liancheng:? !

Xi Mo smiled with his hands behind his back, "This person talks too much, I'm bored listening to it, so I'll reciprocate by the way."

He then explained seriously, "If anyone keeps Senior Sister's inkstone next to his body for more than two hours, all the hair on his body will fall off. Even if he is wrapped in a layer of cloth, he will not dare to come out easily and talk nonsense in the street."

Ning Liancheng couldn't hold back and smiled.

Cui Yangqing froze and laughed too.

The corners of his lips were slightly curved, and he didn't take them back when he got home.

(bald) Palace Master Linyuan: I think you are just jealous of my beautiful hair! (yelling)

Xi Mo: ...Oh. (blowing bubbles)
