One Sword Ling Han
Chapter 70
Chu Linghan stood outside the yard, only to hear a breathing sound inside.The sound of breathing is a bit heavy, it should be just an ordinary person.
She then scanned with her spiritual sense, and found that the person inside was a twelve or thirteen-year-old child, who was sleeping in a corner of the house at the moment.After making sure that there was no one around, Chu Linghan gently opened the door and walked in.
With her strength, it is so easy to control a child. If the child hadn't been staring at her just now, she would not have picked him. After all, there are many people in this town.
It's just that her intuition told her that there was something wrong with the child.
She directly clicked on the child's dumb acupoint, but only woke up the child, lest the child be frightened by herself and make some noise to attract others.
An eleven or twelve-year-old girl was considered a half-adult in ancient times, but she was still a child in the eyes of Chu Linghan.
Chu Linghan looked at the half-grown child who was about to shrink himself into the corner with panic in his eyes, and felt deeply that he was like a villain flower picker now.
She whispered: "I have no malice."
"You were looking at me just now, weren't you?"
The girl hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly.
"I just want to ask you some questions. There is no other meaning. Don't be afraid." Chu Linghan said, seeing the girl nodded again, he stretched out his hand to untie her acupuncture points.
"Who are you?" The girl said timidly.
Chu Linghan replied: "I'm just a passing traveler, because I'm a little curious about this town, so I want to know if something happened in this town."
After hearing her words, the girl asked with some hesitation and fear, "Are you a monk?"
"Ah."
Chu Linghan noticed something strange in the girl's tone when she mentioned "monk".
The girl was a little nervous. She looked at the monk standing in front of her, wondering if she should tell the story.The monk in front of him was the first person who found something was wrong when he first arrived. Maybe he can save everyone in the town?
But then he thought sadly, maybe it's useless to say it, the monks in front of him are not strong enough, and they will be the same as the previous monks...
Looking at her expression, Chu Linghan knew that this girl must know something, but she seemed unwilling to speak out because of some concerns.
The girl bit her lower lip, and said to her as if she had made up her mind: "Since you find something is wrong, then leave quickly, or...you won't be able to leave after dawn."
Can't leave after dawn?What he said was interesting, Chu Linghan thought of the dark sky when he came here.
Chu Linghan said, "You've seen monks before, haven't you?"
Although there are a lot of cultivators in the Hunyuan Realm of Shanhai, they are still relatively small compared with ordinary people. The relationship between ordinary people and cultivators is neither completely separated nor intimate.
In some large towns, you can see practitioners and mortals living together, but more often, many mortals have never seen enough practitioners in their entire lives.In particular, the number of monsters in the Western Regions is large, and the number of monks is less than that of the other four regions.
Only in the center of the Western Regions can one often see practitioners.
This place is far away from Muzhou City in the center of the Western Regions, and there are no spiritual objects produced, and no monks will pass through such a small town on purpose.
Even if there were, they would most likely be like Chu Linghan and the others, resting here for a night and then leaving.
The girl didn't speak, but looking at her expression, Chu Linghan understood what the answer was.
Chu Linghan asked again: "Those monks are all dead, aren't they?"
The girl looked at her in shock, as if asking how she knew.
"It seems that I was right."
"I saw it when I came here. The people in this small town are all mortals. It is very difficult for mortals to kill a cultivator, even a lowly cultivator, so there must be other monks behind the scenes..."
"You still don't want to say it?"
Girl: "Even if I tell you, can you save us? Are you a very powerful monk?"
It was the first time that Chu Linghan felt a little helpless when a cultivator in the Composite Realm was questioned whether he was good or not.
But thinking of the age of the girl in front of her, she thought for a while and nodded, "You can think so."
"Okay, then I'll tell you." The girl said.
……
Chu Linghan learned what happened in this town from the girl, and also knew that the girl's name was Xiaoqi, but the story started half a year ago.
More than half a year ago, two monks came here and told the townspeople that they would live in a hut on the mountain behind the town, which is also a good thing for the town.
In many rumors and stories, monks will shelter in one place when they live in one place.
Since the arrival of those two monks, the big bugs that caused disasters in the mountains have been removed, and the life of the townspeople has become much easier.It's just that the good times didn't last long, and something happened suddenly one day.
First, the earth dragon turned over, and then the downpour rained for three days and three nights and washed away the rocks... The townspeople had no choice but to ask the two monks who had settled here, and asked them to help the town.
With the help of the monks, the situation in the town gradually improved.But then a very terrible thing happened. The behavior of the townspeople in the town became weird. They lived normally during the day, but when the moon appeared, they would become terrible.
According to Xiaoye, the passers-by in the village obviously did not leave the town the next day, but they all disappeared suddenly.Some of those who disappeared were businessmen and travelers passing by, and some were monks in Taoist robes.
People who died in the village would be buried in the ancestral graves, but now they are carried into the mountains for burial.
"What about the two monks?"
"They left after helping the town again," Xiaoqi said.
Chu Linghan looked at the little girl in front of him, and suddenly asked, "People in the whole town will change at night, so do you have any?"
Xiao Qi's expression became a little strange, and he clutched his clothes tightly with both hands, "I don't know why I can't, but they are really scary, big brother, you'd better leave quickly."
"Okay, I will." Chu Linghan nodded.
"Thank you, Xiaoqi."
After Chu Linghan said this, he left. There was not much useful information in what Xiao Qi said, but it cast another layer of veil on the town.
After she left, the frail and frightened look on Xiao Qi's face disappeared in an instant, and he lay down again expressionlessly, with a pair of black eyes that were big and lifeless, like a puppet without a soul at all.
Chu Linghan, who was walking on the road in the town, looked up at the moon in the sky half covered by black clouds, and glanced down at the surrounding houses.
At some point, the lights in the surrounding houses went out.
Chu Linghan went to the entrance of the town again. She didn't notice any changes in the town when she was standing on the treetops just now, but what the girl named Xiao Qi said just now gave her new inspiration.
Zhenzikou.
Chu Linghan looked at the location not far from the big tree, where there was a stone tablet.The name of the town is engraved on the stone tablet, and most towns will have a boundary tablet like this to indicate what boundary this place belongs to.
She didn't intend to leave at all. There were too many doubts in the little girl's words, and she came here just to verify her thoughts.
Chu Linghan remembered what his uncle once said, some formations are always difficult to see clearly in the formation.There are also some special formations, even if you stand outside the formations when they are not opened, you will not find anything.
She raised her feet and took a few steps forward. The fifth step happened to pass the boundary marker. At the same time, she closed her eyes and walked a few steps forward.
When Chu Linghan opened her eyes again, she was standing under the big tree, and she could see the lush leaves when she looked up.
After dark... or rather, after the moon appears, it will be turned on if it is dark. It is impossible for me to enter the town without noticing it.
Chu Linghan returned to the inn.
When Chu Linghan went back to the room through the window, he happened to see Wuyou pushing the door in, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
Ye Wenqing frowned and looked at him. Although he didn't ask directly, the meaning in his eyes was self-evident.
Liuli who came running in from behind her broke the somewhat dignified atmosphere, "Master, master, let me tell you that today I will help Shaojun cook together."
"Come and try."
The green fox, who was released from the spirit animal bag at some point, ran in behind Liuli, wagging its fluffy tail and looking cute.
Ye Wenqing: "Eat first."
Chu Linghan knew well that what Wuyou said meant that it was better not to talk about what happened just now, but to talk about it later, so as not to affect the mood of eating.
She walked to Liuli, looked at the dishes on the table, smiled and said, "Liuli can cook, did she learn from Shaojun?"
"Yeah, it was taught by Shaojun."
Chu Linghan: "Then you must try it as a teacher."
Liuli graciously handed her a pair of chopsticks, and asked curiously: "Master, did you take back that beautiful lamp in the yard just now? I didn't even see it when I came out just now."
Chu Linghan: "Why, didn't Wuyou tell you?"
Liuli was confused: "Huh? Does it have anything to do with Shaojun?"
"That lamp was originally given to Wuyou, tell me where is that lamp now." Chu Linghan smiled faintly, looking at Wuyou sitting opposite her, "If you like it, Master will make it another day." A lamp for you."
Liuli looked at Shaojun subconsciously, with a very surprised expression, "——! That was made by Master's hands? Master, you can actually make lotus lanterns, so amazing!!"
After receiving her apprentice's adoring gaze, she said, "Do you want to learn?"
"miss you!"
Chu Linghan poured Liuli a bowl of soup, and said, "I will teach you swordsmanship once you get started."
Liuli happily took her hand, wanting to hook up with her, "It's a deal, Master, you can't go back on your word."
"No regrets."
Hearing her words, Liuli turned around and said to Wuyou: "Young Master, you heard what Master said! When Master teaches me, I will make one for Shaojun, okay?"
Seeing Liuli's lively appearance, Ye Wenqing smiled, of course she would not refuse.
"it is good."
After eating.
Chu Linghan asked Liuli to meditate in the room to breathe out spiritual energy, but he dragged Wuyou to the roof.
When Chu Linghan dragged her up to the roof, Ye Wenqing was a little uncomfortable.It has been many years since no one dared to pull her to do that, and even she rarely went to the roof by herself.
Ye Wenqing looked at him: "What's the matter?"
Chu Linghan sat directly on the roof, curled his mouth and stretched out his hand to pull Wuyou to sit next to him, pretending to be mysterious: "Don't you want to know where I went just now?"
