Strange Records of Xijing

The moon was sparse and the breeze was breezy. Except for the rustling of leaves brushing against the vines, there was not even the sound of insects in the melon field.

But this kind of silence didn't last long, the rustling sound inflated dozens of times in an instant, like a group of huge and greedy insects gnawing on a watermelon.

Amidst the rustling sound in the melon field, a man in coir raincoat came running from afar.His posture was really embarrassing, he was almost jumping forward and running forward, his hands were still waving wildly in the air.When I got closer, I realized that this person couldn't even be called a man—but he looked about fourteen or fifteen years old, with an immature face, sweating profusely, and yelling "Second Senior Brother, help!", "Second senior brother, where are you?" or something like that.

Su Yan was leaning against the tree to rest, and had already woken up when the rustling sound became louder, but he just opened his left eye and took a look before falling asleep again.Now a young man's voice suddenly came in, Su Yan opened his eyes, picked up the saber beside him, and looked warily at the young man dancing in the melon field.

Pei Huaiyu was running out of breath. Although there was a bright moon illuminating the path in front of him, the melon field was full of huge melon leaves, so densely stacked that it was impossible to see what was going on underneath, so he stepped on it. , Maybe stepped on a watermelon.

Moreover, this melon field was really weird, the watermelon vines seemed to be alive, and from time to time they sprang out from under the leaves and attacked his limbs.

Pei Huaiyu was very anxious, while trying to avoid the vines attacking from all directions, while calling for the second senior brother who should have appeared earlier to meet him.But apart from the life-threatening rustling, there was no other sound in my ears.

After running for a long time, coupled with anxiety, Pei Huaiyu felt that he had been running for more than an hour, and this melon field seemed to be connected to the sky, so he couldn't get out no matter how he ran.

Although he has only been a nominal disciple of the national teacher for more than two months, and the national teacher went on a long-distance travel early, and only learned a little from a few senior brothers, he also knows that the current situation is not right, and he is afraid that he has encountered some illusion.

"This monster is too powerful, could it be that the second senior brother has also been recruited?"

Seeing that the second senior brother did not show up for a long time, Pei Huaiyu couldn't help worrying about the safety of the other party, and became more and more anxious.

Just when Pei Huaiyu was distracted thinking, a vine wrapped around his right wrist.Pei Huaiyu only felt a huge pulling force coming from the right side, he was unstable for a moment, and kicked a thick vine under the melon leaf.

Pei Huaiyu fell forward involuntarily, and several vines sprang out from the left and right, wrapping around Pei Huaiyu's limbs and waist.

After these vines entangled Pei Huaiyu, he lifted Pei Huaiyu up, his whole body facing the melon field and his back facing the sky, forming a "big" shape.These vines were like long snakes, entwining Pei Huaiyu tightly, without giving him any chance to break free.Without the supporting ground, Pei Huaiyu couldn't use all the strength in his body, so he could only shake his hands in vain, but found that the vines were getting tighter and tighter, and finally wanted to pierce his skin and embed into his flesh and blood.

No, I can't die yet—Pei Huaiyu held her breath, shaking her limbs desperately—I haven't picked up the jade bracelet I ordered in Linglongxuan yet, it will be A Niang's birthday in two days, so I don't care what I say to go back!

But I'm really tired and want to sleep.

Pei Huaiyu's ear seemed to be filled with a girl's unique murmur, just like the song Minglang Princess sang when he was a child when he was coaxing him to sleep.Pei Huaiyu's eyelids became heavier and heavier, and the jade bracelet in Linglongxuan in his mind became more and more blurred, and gradually merged with Princess Minglang's smile, turning into a colorful halo.

Pei Huaiyu's throbbing limbs gradually lost their movement, a vine slowly climbed up from under the melon leaves, and the end wrapped around Pei Huaiyu's neck. With a little force, Pei Huaiyu died.

At this moment, there was a loud shout in the melon field.

This burst of shouting was like a bolt from the blue, pulling Pei Huaiyu, who had given up his mind, back from the cliff.Pei Huaiyu only felt that his eyes suddenly became clear, he was still in the melon field, but he was already at the edge of the melon field, and he could get out of the melon field after walking three more steps.

But before he could feel joy welling up in his heart, everything in front of him was replaced by endless melon fields.Pei Huaiyu's heart felt cold, and the pain from the entangled vines on his limbs intensified. He was cruel and bit the tip of his tongue. As a result, he closed his eyes and cried from the pain, but the melon field in front of him still remained unchanged.

Just when he was at a loss, he suddenly heard a voice from the side.Pei Huaiyu turned his head to look, only to see a young man about his own age pinch a sword formula, and the mantra muttered in his mouth had come to an end: "When you encounter evil, you will kill it, and if you encounter a tiger, you will capture it. Strong ghosts will beheaded, and living ghosts will not be left behind." .I expect the real master of heaven to arrive, and the divine soldiers are as urgent as the law."

As soon as the last word was spoken, the long sword in the young man's hand swam a blue ripple from the hilt to the tip, and then Pei Huaiyu heard a cry of pain coming from a certain part of the melon field, and the endless melon field in front of him It disappeared in an instant.

The vines that originally restrained Pei Huaiyu lost their support and fell limply to the ground.Pei Huaiyu then fell down and fell into the melon field, half of his face fell into a big watermelon under the melon leaves, and the pulp got into his nostrils.

Pei Huaiyu held her nose and kept coughing, but her eyes couldn't help following the boy's movements.

This boy was naturally Su Yan who was sleeping under the tree.

After breaking through the illusion formation, he carried his sword and walked deep into the melon field.Every time he took a step, the melon leaves behind him were all withered, the vines were shattered into powder, and the watermelon hidden under the melon leaves was crumpled badly.

But the person manipulating this phantom formation, or ghosts, demons, or even unknown things, never appeared.

Su Yan took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and said again: "I am the Celestial Eye, chasing the sky. The sky is like thunder and lightning, and the brilliance is eight poles. Seeing the inside and outside, everything is invincible. Urgency is like a law."

This time, there was a rushing rustling sound from the northwest side of the melon field, and then a green figure sprang out from under the melon leaves.Pei Huaiyu, who was on the side, saw her and avoided taking a deep breath—it looked like she was dressed in green, and it would be really hard to find it after hiding in the melon field for a while.

When Su Yan saw it, a white light flashed in his left eye, and he immediately raised his sword to chase after him.He was going so fast that Pei Huaiyu didn't even have time to see how he caught up. The long sword in Su Yan's hand had already pierced into the green figure.Then Su Yan pulled out his left hand from his bosom, and raised it again, the green figure was sucked into the heart of Su Yan's left hand.

After finishing all this, Su Yan flicked the blade of the sword, put the long sword into the sheath, put the things in his left hand back into his bosom, and walked out of the melon field without looking back.

Pei Huaiyu just woke up like a dream, jumped up from the ground, shook off the dirt and melon flesh all over her body, wiped her face, and chased after her.

"Daoist! Daoist!" Pei Huaiyu shouted while chasing Su Yan, "Daoist, my second brother is missing, please help me find it, master!"

Su Yan stopped, turned around to look at Pei Huaiyu, and said seriously: "Young master, I don't look at Fengshui, I don't care about fortune-telling, and I don't look for living people. You should ask someone else to be wise."

"No, it's just me and the Daoist here!" Seeing Su Yan's extraordinary skill, Pei Huaiyu naturally wouldn't give up easily, and continued, "Daoist, please make an exception. I am the son of Princess Minglang. The money in the family is inexhaustible, how much reward do you want, just ask, I will definitely not renege on it!"

Su Yan shook his head and said, "I won't."

Pei Huaiyu was angry and impatient, he saw that Su Yan turned around and was about to leave, when his youthful temper rose, he simply turned his head in the opposite direction to Su Yan, and went to look for his second senior brother in the melon field.

The national teacher is traveling around, Gao Zekai, the eldest disciple of the national teacher, sits in Xijing, the capital of the Zhou Dynasty, and cannot easily move.This time, Wei Zhongmou, Pei Huaiyu's nominal second brother Wei Zhongmou, the second disciple of the national teacher, took him, who had just started for less than two months, and was still a nominal disciple, to Guadatian to find out about the haunting of melon fields outside Xijing this time.

Pei Huaiyu is now at the time when Taoism is the most important thing in his heart, and this time he came to Guadatian to do business, almost only at the order of his second senior brother.Wei Zhongmou asked him to pretend to be a melon farmer, so he put on the melon farmer's usual clothes, even if the clothes were all made of the worst linen, it almost tore the skin of the son of a princess who only wore silk and satin since he was a child.

Pei Huaiyu never expected that the monster in this melon field would be so powerful, he had set up a phantom formation that he couldn't escape, and now he abducted his second senior brother to nowhere.

Thinking about the two senior brothers who came out to hunt down demons and ghosts, but the thing who didn't know whether it was a ghost or a demon was captured by a Taoist priest who was about the same age as him, and the life and death of the second senior brother was uncertain now, Pei Huaiyu felt a sense of sadness in his heart He almost had to open his mouth to chant poems to express his state of mind at this moment.

In fact, this melon field is not big, and part of it has been destroyed by Su Yan, Pei Huaiyu bent down to search for a while, but found nothing, only felt the pain in his back and left, almost unable to straighten up.

Just as he was grinning his teeth and tapping his poor old waist, suddenly there was a familiar rustling sound behind him.For Pei Huaiyu, the rustling sound was like a bell calling for his death. He hastily pulled out a short mahogany sword—or a more suitable mahogany dagger—that had been hidden under his coir raincoat, and turned around to stare fiercely ahead.

After seeing the face of the person opposite him clearly, Pei Huaiyu hurriedly put away the dagger, and shouted overjoyedly, "Master Taoist!"

Su Yan didn't respond, but asked him: "Are you the son of Princess Minglang?"

"That's right," Pei Huaiyu thought he had changed his mind, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Daoist, I will never owe you money."

"I don't want money." Su Yan shook his head and said, "I want to find the national teacher. If I help you find the second senior brother, can you take me to see the national teacher?"

"That's easy!" Pei Huaiyu patted his chest and assured, "I am a disciple of the national teacher. But my master is now wandering, I don't know where he has gone, and when he will return to Beijing. But Taoist, don't worry, you can live with me House, until my master comes back."

"You are a disciple of the national teacher? It seems that this national teacher is not very good." Su Yan didn't give Pei Huaiyu any face, "You don't need to stay, but if I find your second senior brother for you, you have to take me Go see the national teacher. After the national teacher returns to Beijing, I will naturally come to you again."

Pei Huaiyu's face was dull, even if he was cautious, he was still defeated by someone like Su Yan.But now is not the time to save face, the most important thing is to find Wei Zhongmou.

"Don't worry, Daoist, once I, Pei Huaiyu, say something, it's hard to catch up. As long as you find the second senior brother for me, I will take you to see my master."

Su Yan glanced at Pei Huaiyu, and asked, "What's your second brother's name?"

Pei Huaiyu replied without thinking: "Wei Zhongmou."

Seeing that Pei Huaiyu didn't have any doubts at all, Su Yan directly said the name of his second senior brother, and the image of the Chinese teacher in his heart became three inches shorter.

He made a formula, murmured something, and opened his eyes after a while: "Your second senior brother is not here."

"Where is that?"

Su Yan pointed to a vague silhouette in the distance: "Xijing."

The author has something to say: It’s starting, hehe vvv

The Zhou Dynasty in this article is an overhead history and has nothing to do with the Zhou Dynasty in history.The layout of Xijing, the capital of the Zhou Dynasty, and some customs and official positions in the article refer to the Tang Dynasty, and a small part will have the shadow of the Song Dynasty and Ming Dynasty, but the characters appearing in it have nothing to do with history, so I would like to explain~
