The bright moon sits on the ground

It seems that the hatred between the Qin family and Wraith can never be reconciled.

According to the information Nie Qiu inquired, the Qin family has gone through those water corpse outbreaks, and there are not many disciples left.

Presumably after decades of contact, Tan Rongchong should also have noticed that this water corpse is menacing, and it is aimed at their Tan family.As early as a few years ago, among the remaining disciples of the Qin family, some were sent away by Tan Rongchong, some were forcibly sent out of Xiayan City by him, and ordered not to return in this lifetime.

After a brief calculation, in the entire Xiayan City, there is only Tan Rongchong left in the huge Tan family.

Nie Qiu was silent for a moment, "That is to say, only when Qin Rongchong dies, can the water corpses at the bottom of the lake get what they want, will it disappear?"

"Those spirits and evil spirits have long lost their minds. How could they know this?" Xie Mu's face was expressionless. The rest of the people in the city are probably doomed as well."

It turned out to be the case.

However, Xie Mu has never harmed anyone since he turned into a ghost, even gave Xu Lang his own bones...

Nie Qiu thought, if something like that happened, this young celestial master would definitely not sit idly by.

"It seems that you have left behind." He said.

Xie Mu held his chin, looked at Nie Qiu, "After the Qin family is completely destroyed, I will take action to suppress the water corpse."

Nie Qiu was far away from the imperial city at this time in his previous life, but there was no rumor about Xiayan City in the imperial city. This city is far away from the imperial city and close to the desert, and it is not considered a frontier. Almost no one will notice this place ——Because he was in Nie's house, the only thing he knew was that the business road leading to Xiayan City was cut off after a while.

Like a dead city, there is no movement.

Nie Qiu exhaled lightly and asked, "Xie Mu, have you ever thought about what will happen if you fail?"

"I won't." Xie Mu said so, but there was a trace of hesitation in his eyes, and it seemed that he had considered the consequences.

How can such a long and deep resentment be wiped away overnight.

It's not that Xie Mu never thought about doing it himself, but once he kills someone, there is no way to undo it.If you want him to turn into a ghost with no reason, only instinctively thirsting for blood and killing, it would be better to let his soul fly away.It's not that he didn't think about using other ways to assassinate Tan Rongchong, but he possesses unique skills, and beside him is Shen Chuping who doesn't know his origin and is a master of martial arts. To start, I'm afraid I'm asking for trouble.

After all, this matter... Xie Mu put his hands behind his back and lightly stroked the square mirror.Karmic reincarnation, if he wants to stop these mindless water corpses, he may be bound by those grievances, and thus fall into it.

The grievances of those water corpses will be avenged, and the resentment will be weakened. Xie Mu is betting whether he can seize this opportunity.

Seeing that his expression was wavering, Nie Qiu considered it for a while, then Youyou said, "Instead of giving it a go, why not..."

The second half of Nie Qiu's persuasion got stuck in his throat, and he suddenly realized that he raised his other hand and quickly pressed the trembling copper bell on his wrist, locking the evil spirit that was about to overflow into the copper bell.

A warm feeling diffused from the vigorous "step", and gradually, Nie Qiu's mood stabilized.

However, this time it was so menacing that Nie Qiu had to put all his attention on the copper bell, stroking the bloody copper bell at the edge inch by inch with his fingertips, pressing down on the evil On the pattern of ghost consumption, the sound of the chain stirring constantly echoed in his mind, but the vibration of the copper bell did not decrease by half, but the evil spirit was blocked in it, ready to move.

If ghosts would be affected, then, regardless of the out-of-control red lotus ghosts in the copper bell, what about Xie Mu in front of him?

Nie Qiu suddenly raised his head and subconsciously took a step back.

At this time, Xie Mu's immature face was already very close, but he couldn't see what the expression was.

Seeing Nie Qiu take a step back cautiously, Xie Mu raised his eyebrows and didn't speak. He just pointed to the copper bell on his wrist, signaling him to concentrate on dealing with the evil spirit inside the copper bell.

Xie Mu was not affected?Nie Qiu was suspicious and didn't care too much, so he quickly untied the copper bell.

However, the moment he took off the copper bell, Nie Qiu suddenly felt the Three Pot Moon imprint on his wrist become hot.

It happened at this time.

Once that scorching breath was released, it surged like a flood breaking a bank.Nie Qiu gritted his teeth, ignored the beads of sweat on his forehead, and swung his wrist with force.The copper bell shook accordingly, making a crisp and pleasant sound. The ghost-like lines on the surface of the copper bell narrowed their eyes, and unfolded the folding fan in their hands with a "snap".

The copper bell oscillated round and round, but the burning pain in his body only eased a little. Nie Qiu helped his forehead, feeling dizzy, and the things in front of him were indistinct, as confusing as twisted eddies in the water .

Xie Mu let out a soft "Huh".

He lowered his eyes and watched quietly for a moment, then finally raised his hand.

He held a square mirror with two small hands and placed it in front of him, almost covering his entire face.

There is a silver frame around the edge of this square mirror, which is wide and thick at the top and bottom, and thin at the left and right. The four corners protrude inward, and the patterns on them correspond to the coats of arms of the four beasts; A lingering wind looked at the mirror, but saw nothing.

It was pitch black in the mirror, like midnight.

Xie Mu's lips moved slightly, and he read two words, his voice was as thin as a mosquito's moan, and it dispersed when the wind blew.

"Open the sky."

As soon as the words fell, a faint light appeared in the square open sky mirror in his hand, just like the scene of the sky at dawn.

It was clearly night, but there was the light of day, which scattered in all directions, dispelling the darkness and cold of the night.Bright yellow, light orange, vermilion, ochre... Warm and soft colors spread out between the sky and the earth in an instant. Nie Qiu raised his head and looked over, his bright and clear eyes reflected the beautiful scenery in front of him: that indescribable scene, just like Pangu holding a giant axe, Opening up the world and creating all things; Fuxi sits cross-legged on the hexagram platform, the river traces back to the mountains, and the water and rocks surround each other, opening up the sky with one painting.

In the world, there are only warm and bright colors left.

Nie Qiu stared blankly for a while, and his consciousness gradually became clear.

The copper bell on his wrist was still shaking, and it actually overwhelmed the scorching heat.

The next moment, cracks began to appear in the scene in front of him. Originally, there was only one crack, then two cracks, three cracks...the cracks expanded rapidly, and gradually spread to the entire line of sight.Accompanied by the crisp sound of the mirror shattering, the crazily twisting sound of the thick chain in the copper bell seemed to be blocked by the evil spirit engraved on the surface of the copper bell, and it gradually became quiet.

He quickly wrapped the copper bell around his wrist again, and the red string covered the imprint of the Three Pot Moon, and the flame that was supposed to scald people from the inside receded, just like when it came, it came and went quickly Also fast.

Nie Qiu was about to say thank you, but Xie Mu frowned, put away the Sifang Kaitian mirror, and gently moved his palm.

The wind blew up on the flat ground, and it was more fierce than what Nie Qiu saw last time, but this time it didn't come at him, but rushed towards him not far behind, followed by Xie Mu. A voice wrapped in ice: "Come out!"

A small "ah" suddenly sounded from the corner, followed by a soft rustling sound, as if trying to escape from the wind.

Xie Mu didn't have that much patience and waited for the man to appear by himself, so he pushed out his palm flatly, and the howling wind obediently obeyed his order, and rushed to the corner. After a few breaths, he rolled the man in front of him Come.

The cold wind threw the people hiding in the dark to the ground and dissipated on the spot.

The boy with a dirty face and worn clothes curled up and looked at Xie Mu with some fear.

look at?

Nie Qiu suddenly noticed something was wrong.

Although there was fear in his eyes, he stared at Xie Mu without blinking, as if he could see him clearly.

Xie Mu landed on the ground from mid-air, approached the child with wide-eyed eyes on the ground, and looked up and down carefully. From Nie Qiu's line of sight, he thought this scene was a bit funny: the eight or nine-year-old child looked calm and mature, He bent down and stared at the five-year-old child, not knowing what he was looking at.

Although the boy sitting on the ground was intimidated by the cold gaze, his body shrank slightly, his lips were pursed into a thin line, but his gaze did not avoid it, and he still met Xie Mu's gaze.

"It turns out...it's a mute." Xie Mu breathed out and straightened his waist, "The evil spirit in your copper bell is out of control, it should be because of him."

The second half of the sentence was addressed to Nie Qiu.

Nie Qiu raised the corner of his robe, bent over and squatted down, and looked at the boy carefully.

Because his face was too dirty and it was dark, Nie Qiu didn't recognize him for a while, but after careful observation now, he recognized that this child was the one who gathered together in the crowd to watch Xu Lang perform "Royal Sword" that day. one of the.No wonder, at that time, the red ghost appeared by himself without being recruited by him, but he just got out of the copper bell and looked around, didn't say anything, and went back after a while, could it be that he didn't find this boy? ?

Seeing the boy's big round eyes open, he was not afraid, but just looked at him curiously, Nie Qiu showed a shallow smile, and asked gently: "This morning, the one who secretly watched me in the market is you?"

The boy hesitated for a moment, and seemed to think that he looked harmless, so he nodded and admitted.

It's strange, why did the red ghost and the lotus ghost react to him in the morning, but they didn't the previous time?

As soon as Nie Qiu thought about this, he heard hurried footsteps behind him.

He, the boy, and Xie Muqiqi looked over, but the expressions on their faces were different.Nie Qiu's face was "Sure enough", the boy's face was joyful and a little dependent, while Xie Mu's face was a little disgusted, but he also understood something.

It's Xu Lang.

Nie Qiu's eyes moved slightly, and he cupped his hands and said "Master".

The old Taoist priest in gray robes was busy all the way, running very fast, no different from ordinary young people, panting heavily, and because it was still midnight, he could only shout in a low voice: "I just took a few glances at you, why don't you Disappeared from under my nose again!"

"If it's yours, look forward to it." Xie Mu crossed his arms and said, "With his special physique, he wanders alone outside, and he might be caught by a lonely ghost at any time. Already!"

Xu Lang gave an undetectable "tsk", which was quickly heard by Xie Mu, who had sharp ears.

Xie Mu said angrily: "If it wasn't for my pure mind and the protection of the soul with the four-dimensional open sky mirror, if it were any other stronger ghost, as long as I met him, within a few breaths, the evil ghost would haunt me and devour the soul. Do you think you can still see a complete person? With his current appearance and no means of self-protection, in the eyes of ghosts, he is just a tempting sweet pastry!"

"Okay, I got it." Xu Lang ran over a few steps, scratching the back of his head helplessly, "I was afraid of this, so I hid him in the temple at night, protected by a Buddha statue incense burner, so that no evil would come. Spiritual intrusion. Which kid likes to be bored in the temple every day, so I made him a talisman to cover up his breath, but he didn't know that it didn't work today, and he didn't know it himself, so..."

Sure enough, when the copper bell moved for the first time, it was because it felt the child was nearby, but because Xu Lang's talisman had an effect, the red ghost didn't have much reaction, just looked around and turned back to the copper bell. inside.

And the two times I met today, because the talisman failed, the reaction of the two ghosts in the copper bell was so strong.

After Xie Mu listened, he didn't continue the topic just now, but asked solemnly: "I ask you, who is this child? It's not like you don't know, according to his divination, he won't live past ten years old of."

He paused and said, "You must be saved?"

Nie Qiu subconsciously glanced at the boy, but he looked bewildered. He got up from the ground, stretched out his little fingers, and grabbed Nie Qiu's cuff, leaving a black streak on his snow-white clothes. mark.

The brows and eyes of the man in white Shengxue gradually softened, he sighed, it was already stained anyway, so he simply pinched the cuffs with black marks, and carefully wiped the boy's face until his cuffs were completely stained. Turned black, and the boy's cute and soft face was finally revealed.She looks very handsome and cute, but unfortunately she is too thin.

"I can't say who it is. I don't even know his name or which family he is from. I just picked him up in the temple. He is smart when he thinks about it. He knows that temples can hide. I and When he was together, no one came looking for him." Xu Lang took out a yellow talisman from his bosom, and slapped it on the child's forehead, seeing him clutching his forehead in pain, finally He showed an unscrupulous smile, and responded in a flat tone, "I must be saved."

Xie Mu and Xu Lang looked at each other for a while, and finally lost in his eyes.

"I always like to take care of things that shouldn't be taken care of." He said, but suddenly smiled, "It's you, Xu Lang."

"It's a good piece of uncut jade. If you want to save him, you have to let him learn to carve by himself. You can't always rely on others?" Xie Mu said, "If you want to teach, you should take him on this road as soon as possible. , don’t wait until someone dies to be sad.”

Puyu refers to the boy in front of him who is looking at Xu Lang and Xie Mu blankly.

The author has something to say: Small popular science: According to legend, Fuxi's painting of the Eight Diagrams began with the first painting of the third Qian Gua, and the dry is the sky, so it means "one painting opens the sky".
