witch

Pu Xiaoding sat on the courtyard wall, leaning against Ah Jiu, and fell asleep not long after.

It's not that he doesn't want to talk to Ah Jiuduo, it's that he doesn't know what to say.In the dark city, his eyes were completely dark, even if he wanted to praise the city where Ah Jiu lived, he didn't know where he should praise it.

Therefore, Pu Xiaoding could only remain silent.

Ah Jiu's body temperature slowly penetrated along the fabric.Warm, as warm as the sun and reassuring.

Pu Xiaoding seemed to be bathed in the warm spring sun, and he felt drowsy involuntarily while basking in the sun.Therefore, he fell asleep without any suspense.

Ah Jiu looked away, he was not surprised to see Pu Xiaoding who was sleeping soundly.It is normal for Pu Xiaoding not to have much interest in Wangcheng.

Don't say that Pu Xiaoding doesn't know Wangcheng, even if Pu Xiaoding knows Wangcheng, with Pu Xiaoding's personality, he won't like this kind of place.

The monsters of Wangcheng and the monsters of Hanamura seem to live in two worlds.

It is not that Pu Xiaoding has no contact with Wangcheng. A long time ago, when Pu Xiaoding was still a seed, Pu Xiaoding once floated over the sky of Wangcheng.

At that time, Pu Xiaoding was extremely weak, struggling on the verge of death, and he was a seed of unclear consciousness. Pu Xiaoding would not notice what the city was like under his feet, and he could not see the dark tide in the city.

Although in Ah Jiu's eyes, the royal city outside the courtyard wall was still pitch black, but because of Ah Jiu's familiarity with the royal city, he knew the situation around his mansion.

The neighbors in the neighborhood, what kind of monsters they are.They are friendly or hostile to Ah Jiu.Do they dare to show their hostility, or do they just secretly stare at Ah Jiu to express their unwillingness.

Ah Jiu remembered, no matter how far he walked from his house, it was Wufeng's home.Not far from Wufeng's home is Lan Luo's home.

Even though Ah Jiu couldn't directly see the city like before, all the memories about this city were in Ah Jiu's mind.

After a while, Ah Jiu lost interest in continuing to observe the Dark King City. What he is most concerned about now is how he and Pu Xiaoding will go back.

They must return to Huacun as soon as possible. The small Huacun is a safe place for them to live.

Ah Jiu thought for a moment, he planned to wake up Pu Xiaoding and ask Pu Xiaoding about his last experience.

However, before he could speak, the scene in front of him suddenly changed.

The sky turned dark suddenly, and at the same time, the royal city beyond the courtyard wall unexpectedly came alive.The dark scene is no longer there, lanterns are hung in the streets and alleys, and people come and go, just as prosperous as before.

At that moment, Ah Jiu didn't hesitate at all, he decisively pressed the switch on the courtyard wall.

He and Pu Xiaoding immediately fell and disappeared without a trace.

The two monsters, one fat and one thin, who were in charge of patrolling the courtyard, stopped suddenly.

The fat monster rubbed his eyes and took a deep breath: "Hey, did you see it just now? There seems to be a figure on the courtyard wall?"

"Where did the figure come from in the middle of the night? Don't scare me!" The thin monster looked around in panic, "It's getting more and more evil here, it's so scary!"

The expression of the fat monster was unnaturally stiff: "I heard from the brothers who were patrolling before that this courtyard is haunted by ghosts, and people are panic-stricken. No one wants to patrol. They suspect that Jiuxiao and the others are not missing, but died here. Filled with resentment and unwillingness, they turned into ghosts after death, wandering around here, refusing to leave for a long time."

The thin monster subconsciously clenched the knife hanging around his waist, and felt guilty: "Hey, what the hell are you talking about in the middle of the night. Anyway, no one else is here, so let's find a place to drink and don't wander around here."

Especially not near Jiuxiao's room.

The breath there is the most terrifying, even Jiuxiao has an accident, not to mention other monsters.

The fat monster secretly glanced at the quiet courtyard wall, he couldn't help shivering twice, he urged anxiously: "Let's go quickly, stay away from that room."

The two monsters reached an agreement, they quickly picked a corner away from Jiu Xiao's room, and went to drink and chat.

At the same moment, Pu Xiaoding covered his mouth with both hands, and he nervously observed the movement above the ground.

The moment Pu Xiaoding and Ah Jiu fell, Pu Xiaoding woke up suddenly, and he fell to the hard floor underground.His first reaction was not to cry out for pain, but subconsciously called out to Ah Jiu.

He was anxious about Ah Jiu's whereabouts, and he was anxious about whether Ah Jiu was injured.

However, Pu Xiaoding realized that he could not speak.

The sudden night scene was full of ominousness, just like the dark night when Pu Xiaoding was trampled by a bad monster.

What's more frightening is that there are monsters patrolling nearby.

Pu Xiaoding immediately covered his mouth to prevent himself from making any sound.

The floor is very hard, with a coolness different from summer night, its material is very special, but Pu Xiaoding is not in the mood to study the floor at this time.

For some reason, he fell to the bottom of the mansion. Fortunately, his vision was not affected, and he could clearly see the wind and grass above the ground.

Pu Xiaoding's eyes fell on the two patrolling monsters, they were not the two monsters from last time.

But the same thing is that the aura they exude is still extremely dangerous.

Pu Xiaoding was tense all over, afraid that he would make any noise and attract the attention of the two monsters.

However, Ah Jiu's question drifted past his ears suddenly: "It hurts from the fall? Can you still stand up?"

The simple and plain concern is like thunder in Pu Xiaoding's ears at this moment, almost knocking him out.

He hurriedly opened his mouth towards Ah Jiu, and gestured: Don't talk, they will find out.

Pu Xiaoding deeply felt that his cultivation was not enough.No wonder the village chief reminded them repeatedly not to go out to practice too early, but to practice as much as possible for a few years, so as to have some self-protection power.

With hundreds of years of cultivation, it is extremely difficult for Pu Xiaoding to protect himself, so how can he protect Ah Jiu comprehensively.

Unlike Pu Xiaoding's nervousness, Ah Jiu is indifferent to the monsters in the courtyard, and he is far calmer than Pu Xiaoding.

He stood up and casually patted the dust on the surface of his robe.After that, he led Pu Xiaoding to stand up again: "Don't worry, I won't find out."

This is the hiding place Ah Jiu left for himself.

Here they can see the situation outside, and they can speak normally.

As for the two monsters in the courtyard, they will not know their location, and will not notice the slightest clue.Otherwise, based on Ah Jiu's current status as a human race, how could he protect his own life.

Pu Xiaoding stared blankly at Ah Jiu for a moment, and then he slowly came to his senses.This is Ah Jiu's home, a place Ah Jiu is familiar with.Ah Jiu said it was safe, so Pu Xiaoding naturally didn't have to worry anymore.

He took a long breath, he was so happy to be able to breathe normally, it was too hard to hold his breath and not dare to move.Pu Xiaoding rubbed his butt that hurt a little from the fall, and calmed down his up and down emotions.

At the last moment, Pu Xiaoding was immersed in a dream. He dreamed that he and Ah Jiu built a big house and planted a lot of flowers and plants.

The next moment, Pu Xiaoding quickly fell back to reality from the dream, and he fell very directly, without buffering at all, he hit the hard floor.

The dream was over in an instant.

Pu Xiaoding looked around, the place where he was standing was also a courtyard.

The underground courtyard construction is different from bricks, tiles and wood. Its material is very strange, like gold but not gold, like jade but not jade, and no flowers and trees are planted.This place is smaller than the mansion on the ground, with only one room and a small courtyard.

Pu Xiaoding looked around and asked, "Ah Jiu, where is this place?"

"My mansion is underground." Ah Jiu explained, "If one day I encounter danger and have nowhere to escape, I can take refuge here."

In the past, Ah Jiu just made a plan to be prepared. He didn't think he would use the underground mansion soon.

Prior to this, Ah Jiu encountered an accident, and he didn't realize that he needed to hide.What's more, at that time, Ah Jiu didn't catch the signs of the disaster, but instead found signs of a breakthrough in his cultivation.

So Ah Jiu missed an opportunity to protect herself.

Fortunately, this time, the underground mansion played its due role, it gave Ah Jiu and Pu Xiaoding safety.

Don't look at Ah Jiu and Pu Xiaoding climbing up the courtyard wall, as if they were playing casually.In fact, Ah Jiu had already chosen which seat to sit in.

He knows the layout of the mansion, especially the layout that is crucial to him, and he will keep it in mind.As a human being, he couldn't afford the slightest mistake.

From the very beginning, the location Ah Jiu chose was at the corresponding entrance of the organ.

Ah Jiu will never forget that last time Pu Xiaoding was trampled by a bad monster.It was precisely because of Pu Xiaoding's injury that Ah Jiu had to face up to the hidden dangers that could erupt in the courtyard at any time.

It is very likely that he and Pu Xiaoding will reach this yard patrolled by monsters again and fall into danger.

The moment the scene changed, Ah Jiu realized that that moment had finally come, so he activated the mechanism without hesitation.

He and Pu Xiaoding's figure flashed above the courtyard wall, they would not be guessed by the patrolling monsters, and they avoided disaster skillfully.

Pu Xiaoding followed Ah Jiu into the room of the underground mansion. The room was clean and tidy, with everything in stock, ready for this day.

Even if this day comes suddenly, it will not be in a hurry.

The material of the house is the same as that of the courtyard, which looks like gold but not gold, like jade but not jade.Pu Xiaoding knocked on the wall curiously: "Ah Jiu, how did you build this house? It's beautiful and strong. Shall we also build one at the bottom of the house in Huacun?"

In case of an accident, Ah Jiu can hide in the ground, which is more practical and safer than Pu Xiaoding digging a cellar.

Ah Jiu learned for the first time that Pu Xiaoding even had the idea of ​​letting him squat in the cellar.

Fortunately, he did not agree with Pu Xiaoding to build a cellar. He thought Pu Xiaoding's cellar was to store a large amount of food.

Besides, in a small village like Hanamura, there is no need to use methods like underground mansions.Hanamura was so peaceful that it couldn't be more peaceful. All day long, it's just a small matter of sesame and mung beans.

If it's time for Huacun to open the underground mansion, Ah Jiu sincerely suggested that Pu Xiaoding move quickly.In that environment, Hanamura may not be able to live anymore.

Ah Jiu said: "There's no need to repair it, it's too troublesome. If I really need it in the future, I can take it away from here. Before that, it's best not to mess with it. It's more troublesome to activate."

"Are there any special requirements for using this mansion?" Pu Xiaoding asked.

Ah Jiu gave an affirmative answer: "In order to ensure safety, this place is usually isolated from the outside world. The only way to open it is to pour my power into it."

Therefore, no one can use it except Ah Jiu.

But now, Ah Jiu's situation is special, he is already in the state of a mortal.He is not a big monster, how can he have the power to open the mansion to hide.

But Ah Jiu and Pu Xiaoding must have a place to stay.

So, Ah Jiu used his own blood, and his blood combined with the dragon's unique spell, awakened the underground mansion here.

Pu Xiaoding listened attentively, and sighed again and again: "Ah Jiu, you are so amazing that you actually built such a place!"

Hearing this, Ah Jiu was silent for a moment, and his eyes added a trace of emotion: "I didn't create this underground mansion, it came from my father. Not long after I was born, I almost died in an accident. My mother was worried. I was very concerned about my safety. Therefore, my father decided to create a hiding place for me."

Pu Xiaoding was envious: "He is really an amazing father!"

Ah Jiu fell silent, and he didn't say anything further.

Unfortunately, his father did not complete the construction of this underground mansion.According to the prototype created by his father, Ah Jiu made countless revisions and gradually perfected it, and finally got the current underground mansion.

It is located underground in Ah Jiu's mansion, and exists to protect Ah Jiu at critical moments.

The two patrolling monsters in the courtyard were obviously not interested in the presence or absence of people in the courtyard, so they wandered to a far corner to drink.

They plan to spend it until dawn, wait until the patrol is over, and turn around and go home.

Although there are two scary big monsters outside, Pu Xiaoding has Ah Jiu by his side, and he is in the underground mansion, so he is no longer afraid.

There will be no more vicious, bad monsters trampling on him.

Pu Xiaoding had nothing to do, he began to study the furnishings of the underground mansion.The ordinary gadgets in Ah Jiu's mouth are all novelty treasures that Pu Xiaoding has never seen before.

Compared with the mansion on the ground, the underground mansion is less luxurious and more plain, and it is closer to Ah Jiu's temperament.

Pu Xiaoding happily tossed the items in the underground mansion one by one, until he and Ah Jiu returned to Huacun, he had interesting things to do.

Suddenly, a wave of power came.A strange force passed through the ground and reached the underground mansion.

someone is coming.

Pu Xiaoding looked up and saw a slender figure appearing in the courtyard in the dark night.The flirtatious young man was wearing a dark red brocade robe, and the patterns woven with silver threads seemed to be swaying with the moonlight. His gestures and gestures revealed a soul-stirring beauty.

The young man glanced at the corner expressionlessly, the patrolling monsters didn't notice him at all.Then, he walked towards Jiu Xiao's room, searching for something in the collapsed room.

Pu Xiaoding stared at this person and looked again: "Ah Jiu, don't you think, who does this person look like?"

"Like Lan Luo." Ah Jiu said coldly, without any appreciation in his voice, "He is Lan Luo's cousin, Lan Ye."

Lan Ye had a lively temperament when he was a child, he loved to laugh and make trouble, and he was a restless master all day long.

Later, someone said something, there was a trace of Lan Luo's charm in Lan Ye's eyebrows, but his temperament and taste were too far from Lan Luo's, so he became unobtrusive, which is really a pity.

From then on, Lan Ye intentionally or unintentionally imitated Lan Luo.

Day by day, year after year, the original Lan Ye disappeared, and he became the current Lan Ye who was often mentioned by people, who looked like Lan Luo, and was so beautiful.

Lan Ye hates Lan Luo deeply and looks down on Lan Luo, but at the same time, he keeps imitating Lan Luo.He wished he could turn himself into the second Lan Luo, the Lan Luo who was held in the palm of his hand and protected at the tip of his heart.

There are some things that Ah Jiu doesn't want to comment on. Everything in Wangcheng is always so boring.

Ah Jiu couldn't appreciate Lan Luo's beauty, and he had very little impression of Lan Ye who imitated Lan Luo, and the two of them hadn't met much.

At this moment, Ah Jiu and Pu Xiaoding had the same question: "What is he looking for?"

What did Lan look for in Jiuxiao's room in the middle of the night?

The author has something to say: Pu Xiaoding: Pensive face, Ah Jiu, why do they all like to come to your house? Is it because your house has so many treasures?

A partner: ... I have money, I don't talk
