Strange Records of Xijing

There was crying.

Su Yan opened his eyes, and found that he was standing barefoot by the lake, the cold lake water almost covered his ankles, it was too cold.He looked around and found that everything he saw was a vast expanse of whiteness, with thick fog covering him, and he couldn't see anything more than a foot away.

It seems that this is the site of the female corpse at the bottom of the lake.

Su Yan sighed in his heart, he couldn't afford to provoke such an unreasonable King Jin who had capital and domineering, and he couldn't avoid it.

There is no other way right now, Su Yan had no choice but to follow the crying and walk over.

I saw a red-haired woman with her back facing Su Yan, leaning weakly on a stone by the lake, covering her face and weeping in a low voice, her shoulders shrugged accordingly.

Su Yan didn't take the initiative to speak, but looked down at his feet in the water, moving his toes from time to time, as if teasing a fish that didn't exist in the water.

Female ghost: "..."

"Young Master," one person and one ghost competed patiently, and in the end Su Yan won. The female ghost wiped away her tears, turned her head, her beautiful eyes were full of sorrow, "please do me a favor, sir."

Su Yan saw that the woman had red hair and blue eyes, deep eye sockets, and a high nose bridge, obviously she looked like a barbarian.

During the period when the father and son Emperor Wu and Emperor Jing were in power, they sent troops no less than ten times successively to completely eliminate the hidden dangers of the barbarians in the northwest of the Zhou Dynasty.Many small countries in the northwest were deeply worried about barbarian invasion because of their small size and weak people. For this reason, they were overwhelmed by the force of the Zhou Dynasty and voluntarily surrendered to the Zhou Dynasty.

The attitude of the Zhou Dynasty to friendly foreigners was very tolerant, and in a huge capital like Xijing, it is very common for various ethnic groups to live together. After decades of ethnic integration, many people in the northwest region have the blood of Hu people.For example, Pei Jingxing's grandmother was the youngest daughter of a tribe chief in the Western Regions. Perhaps it was for this reason that Pei Jingxing's profile was deeper than that of ordinary people, especially his pair of deep eyes, which inherited his grandmother's characteristics and were extremely beautiful emerald color.

The woman in front of her was even more shocking than the Hu Xuan dancing girl she saw in Xishi during the day.

It's a pity, Su Yan is not a person who cherishes beauty and beauty, he looked at the female ghost, shook his head and said, "I can't help."

"..." The female ghost refused to let Su Yan go, "My lord, my husband gave me a piece of clothing before he was alive, and told me to wear it all the time. I like it very much, and I never forget it. Please take pity on me, my lord. Seeing that I was buried in the For the sake of decades at the bottom of the lake, find that dress for me."

Su Yan kicked the lake water rascally, and said, "I've only been in Xijing for a few months, and I don't even know who you are, and who is your husband, how can I help you find clothes?"

The female ghost bit her lower lip, struggled in her heart, sighed after a long time, and said: "It is inconvenient to tell the young master my husband's name. As for my own, the husband gave me the name Immortal Slave, and the young master will start with this name."

Su Yan couldn't laugh or cry: "Wait, I haven't promised you yet, have I?"

The female ghost raised her hand to cover her mouth, blinked at Su Yan, and said with a smile: "My lord, this is up to you."

Su Yan's face changed: "What do you mean?"

The female ghost raised her right hand, pointed at Su Yan's left arm and said, "Young Master, please take a look."

Su Yan pulled up his left sleeve and found that there was an inexplicable red line on his left arm near his wrist.

The female ghost blinked and said, "My lord, I'll give you fifteen days. If you can't find my slave's clothes within fifteen days, this red thread will crawl into your heart and turn into a small snake. I ate it bite by bite."

Su Yan was furious: "Joke! You lonely ghost, how dare you plot against me?"

The female ghost didn't care, and at the moment Su Yan punched, she suddenly moved behind Su Yan: "Young master, this is my world, let alone you, even the ghost emperor can't beat me. "

As soon as Su Yan hit the air, he lost half of his anger. He returned to his previous calmness and asked in a deep voice, "Why on earth do you want me to find that dress?"

The female ghost shook her head and said: "Young master misunderstood, it doesn't have to be you, but you just happened to walk into my dream. I saw that young master has extraordinary skills and sharp eyes, so he must be a reliable person. Xiannu has no other choice but to Please forgive me for making such a bad plan.”

King Jin!

Su Yan yelled these two words in his heart, wishing he could go out and beat King Jin hard now.

It's just that the matter is urgent now, the female ghost didn't know what kind of curse she cast on her body, Su Yan quietly recited the silent curse, and the red line suddenly grew an inch.

This female ghost has an innate connection with the red thread. As soon as Su Yan moved, she felt it: "It turns out that the young master is also a Taoist priest. I have disrespected you. Daoist, you don't have to try again. This spell is ten thousand." Daoist taught me, unless it is Daoist Wan himself, or even me, this curse will never disappear until you, little Daoist, fulfill the wish of Xiannu."

Wan Taoist!

After hearing the name, Su Yan didn't care to compete with the red line, and asked, "Who are you, Taoist priest?"

"He is one of my husband's servants, he is very capable, and he is highly valued by my husband." After the female ghost finished answering, she asked Su Yan again, "Have you met Taoist Master Wan?"

"No, I just heard about it." This female ghost is an enemy and not a friend. Of course, Su Yan will not tell her about his holiday with Taoist Wan. "What does your dress look like, and where did you put it before?"

Seeing Su Yan let go, the female ghost was overjoyed, and hurriedly replied: "The dress is bright red, with a phoenix embroidered with gold thread on the back, and a hundred birds under the skirt, which is a pattern of a hundred birds facing the phoenix." There are a few peonies embroidered on the front of the clothes, which are lifelike. That dress is unique in the world, and the Taoist priest will recognize it as soon as he sees it. Did you agree, Taoist priest?"

Su Yan was not polite at all: "You rely on this place as your territory, and cast a curse on me on your own initiative, can I not agree?"

The female ghost was startled, and looked at Su Yan timidly again: "Is the little Daoist blaming the fairy slave?"

She looked like she was about to cry, if she was someone else, she would have softened her heart a long time ago, not to mention looking for a piece of clothing, even if she wanted to pick the stars in the sky, she would agree.Unfortunately, she ran into Su Yan.

Leaving aside the fact that Su Yan's love for sinus is not open, he doesn't know anything about men and women.He has lived in the mountains for more than ten years, and he has seen many beautiful fox girls, clam spirits, etc. Although the fairy slave has an exotic style and looks like no one in ten thousand, it is still far behind the fox girl.

Su Yan, who was in his early ten years, was able to disregard the fox girl's pretended crying, fix the fox girl's body with a talisman, and then draw a bastard on the fox girl's face. It can be seen that this person is not a kind person.

"It's not your fault, is it my fault?" Su Yan simply sat down on the rock and asked Xian Nu, "How did you die, do you still remember?"

Xiannu frowned and recalled: "I remember that my husband was called away by his father and never came back. After a few days, someone surrounded our house and came in to arrest us. I was worried that they would break the My clothes, I ran back to the house, trying to hide the clothes, but the clothes disappeared!" Xian Nu suddenly raised his voice, his face became very hideous, and he kept repeating, "Yes, the clothes are gone, the clothes are gone No, the clothes are gone!"

"Xian Nu!" Su Yan roared, pulling Xian Nu out of his memory, "You are already dead."

"Yes, I am already dead." Xiannu said, shedding two lines of blood and tears, "Husband, husband, Xiannu is sorry for you, Xiannu did not keep the clothes you gave me. Husband, husband!"

Su Yan couldn't bear the look of dying or living, so he frowned and asked, "What else do you remember?"

"No more." Xiannu cried and shook his head, "I've stayed here for too long, if it wasn't for the changes in the ground veins of Xijing a few days ago, I wouldn't be able to break free at all. Xiao Daochang, Xiannu begs you, find it for me. That dress."

For Su Yan, there was no second choice at all, he said helplessly: "Okay, I promise you."

When Su Yan woke up, it was already the next day.

Before he could sort out the experience in his dream, King Jin, the number one crab in Xijing, walked in with his guards.

Without further ado, one of the guards walked up to Su Yan and pulled up the sleeve of Su Yan's left hand, exposing a small section of red line on his left arm.

When Jin Wang saw it, he laughed loudly: "Su Daochang, it seems that this important entrustment belongs to you."

If it was possible, Su Yan really wanted to roll his eyes, but he was hungry all afternoon and one night, and he really had no energy left.

The king of Jin laughed enough, and ordered the guards to untie him, and said: "Su Daochang, we are on the same boat now, and I will leave the matter of finding the clothes to Su Daochang. After the matter is completed, there must be serious reward."

Hearing what King Jin meant, it seemed that he wanted to let go.

Su Yan couldn't help being a little puzzled—the king of Jin rushed to ask Pei Huaiyu to invite him to come over two days ago, and now he finally dragged himself into the thief's boat for the clothes that the concubine asked for. It depends on what he means Are you going to leave it alone?

Could it be that King Jin believed in himself too much, thinking that Su Yan could find a piece of clothing that he had never seen before by himself?

The King of Jin took Su Yan's silence as unrestrained anger, and perfunctorily drew a big cake for Su Yan: "Don't worry, Daoist Su, as long as I can find that dress and save my concubine, I will write a letter to Your Majesty to replace it." It is not impossible for you to ask for some rewards. Even if Su Daochang is not as good as the national teacher at that time, he will be the second person in the Zhou Dynasty after the national teacher."

At this time, the guards had brought over the mahogany sword and a few pieces of talisman paper that Su Yan carried with him—since he came to Xijing, the long sword that was originally used for self-defense along the way was left unused by Su Yan. The mahogany sword is beside him.

Su Yan put away the talisman paper, and carried the mahogany sword behind his back. Immediately afterwards, before he could react, he was invited out of the Jin Palace by King Jin's order.

Su Yan: "..."

If you ask for him and don't give him a good meal, this Jin Wang is enough.

Su Yan was hungry, and King Jin's Mansion was in Chongqingfang, surrounded by the same high-ranking families, and there was not even a breakfast shop.But it's not that there is nowhere to go, Pei Jingxing's home is in Ankangfang, which is not far from Chongqingfang.

Thinking of the stewed crucian carp that he ate at Pei Jingxing's mansion two days ago, Su Yan felt that his saliva was about to flow down.He pulled down his sleeves to make sure that the red line on his left arm was not exposed, so he simply went to be an uninvited guest again.

Su Yan went early this time, Fu Bo heard that he was coming, put down the account book in his hand, and came out to welcome him.

"Daozhang Su, you're here." Uncle Fu smiled wrinkled like a flower, "It's not a coincidence for you to come, the young master is still sleeping, why don't you go to the flower hall for a meeting first? Daozhang Su can eat Ever? There are meat steamed buns and vegetable tofu steamed buns in the kitchen, do you want to use some, Daoist Su?"

The villain in Su Yan's heart kept clamoring "I want it!" as soon as he heard the words of meat buns. Fortunately, Su Yan was not so hungry that he would pounce on something to eat, so he asked with a serious look: "Is Street Envoy Pei still up at noon?"

"That's right," Uncle Fu sighed, "Young Master came back from the Western Regions more than three years ago. He patrolled at night, came back to sleep in the morning, and went to work in the inner office in the afternoon. As for the reason, no one would ask."

Speaking of this, Uncle Fu's eyes suddenly lit up, he moved closer to Su Yan, and asked in a low voice: "Daozhang Su, looking at my young master, are you fascinated by some demon or ghost?"

Su Yan shook his head: "Pei Jie is full of righteousness, and ordinary evil spirits dare not get close."

"Ouch!" Uncle Fu patted his thigh vigorously, followed by his stomach shaking three times, "Then you say that, is it unusual evil spirit?"

Su Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he quickly shook his head and said, "Uncle Fu, don't worry, I don't think there is any evil in Pei Jieshi, and there is no evil spirit in the house, it is very clean."

"But I'm really worried." Uncle Fu was still worried. He looked at Su Yan, recalled Pei Jingxing's unusual routine for the past three years, and finally said cruelly, "Daozhang Su, how about While the young master is still sleeping, you go to show the young master?"

If Pei Jingxing was awake, Uncle Fu would never dare to say this request.Although Pei Jingxing's attitude has improved in the past few months, but for more than three years, he has been very disgusted with Taoist monks, and even scoffed at the theory of ghosts. If Su Yan hadn't appeared suddenly, Uncle Fu would have thought that his young master was acting like this The attitude will continue forever, and his heart has never let go.

Today, I finally got this opportunity, Uncle Fu would not let it go easily, and said earnestly: "Su Daochang, I heard the young master yesterday say that you can easily catch those beautiful ghosts and 'half-faced ghosts', without you,' The half-faced ghost' case can't be solved so quickly. Just treat me like a bad old man, please, go and take a look for my young master."

Uncle Fu's words aroused Su Yan's curiosity - so did Uncle Fu, and so did Gao Zekai, both of them mentioned Pei Jingxing's trip to the Western Regions about four years ago.What exactly did Pei Jingxing go through in the Western Regions that caused him such a big change? What was Pei Jingxing like four years ago?

In the final analysis, Su Yan was just a 16-year-old youth who was restrained by Su Fu in the mountains, and his curious nature could not be released.Now that he is in Xijing, Su Fu can't control that far. As soon as this idea appeared in Su Yan's mind, it took root in his heart and couldn't get rid of it.

"it is good."
