The mountain ghost blows out the lights

The person who killed Fengqiu was Xiangliu.

That was before Xiangliu went to trouble Bixi and indirectly killed Lord Qingping.

"I don't know how that happened." Yan Jinping said softly, "I don't know until now."

Few people can fool Yan Jinping, he seems to have always been so smart, he will never be deceived by any illusion, he can see through most of the conspiracies in this world...

Unless he had no doubts in the first place.

He seldom made mistakes, and the only two times he made mistakes cost him a lot.

Once, she trusted Tunan on Mount Tunan, and another time... was Fengqiu.

"Fengqiu is a good boy." Yan Jinping closed his eyes, and the halo of bubbles flickered on and off on his face, giving him the effect of looking at a beauty under the lamp, adding a three-point color effect.

He can still picture the little crow in his mind.

"It's a little too good."

At that time, he was fresh and bright, completely opposite to the expressionless spirit guard in the unclean sea.

Maybe it's because he is not Feng An's real younger brother, nor is he a precious and powerful race, Feng Qiu is always very careful in his actions and words, always looking at Feng An's face.Especially when there are other people around, he clings tightly to Feng An's side, unwilling to leave even one step.

Feng An once complained to Yan Jinping in private, no matter what he taught, Feng Qiu was always unwilling to act like a baby to herself willfully, and would do whatever she was asked to do, and would never refute.

So good that it hurts.

No one would hate such a child, not to mention that Feng An was very lonely in the first place, he and Feng Qiu got acquainted very quickly, Yan Jinping understood him, and understood that he really treated Feng Qiu as his own younger brother at that time.

Feng Qiu was in poor health since she was a child, and when she grew up, she stumbled and went through many hardships. Not only was she thin and weak, but she also suffered from many hidden wounds. Herbs for the body.

Yan Jinping hadn't become the god of the Nanshan Mountain in the picture at that time, and he always felt that there was no goal in this long life, and he had nothing to do all day long, so he occasionally took on some jobs to help people find things.

It's not for the little reward, but mainly because the years in Guixu were too long and boring, which gave him such a character that likes new things, he is curious about everything, and wants to explore everywhere he goes.

Besides, he has a good relationship with Feng An, and he has a good impression of Feng Qiu, so he is naturally willing to help this handy.

After coming and going, he and the two brothers Feng An became more familiar, and their relationship became more than ordinary friends. Occasionally, they would sit and drink with Feng An.

At that time, he and Feng An had almost everything to talk about, and Feng Qiu seemed to regard Yan Jinping as his second brother. When he looked at Yan Jinping, he had the same dependence and trust in his eyes as he did when he looked at Feng An.

…until Feng Qiu died in the Sluggish Marsh.

Zhigu Swamp is a swamp surrounded by [-] mountains. It is located in the southwest, but it is not in the territory of the aboriginal people in the southwest - it does not belong to anyone, and there is a fog that can obscure all vision all the year round. The fog is not an ordinary thing, but the grease made of flesh and blood.

A candle dragon died there.

Candle Dragon is a type of dragon, but it has little to do with the Dragon Lord in the sea.

It used to be a mountain god. It can change the day and night when it opens and closes its eyes, and it can summon wind and rain, and its ability is very powerful.

For thousands of years, Zhulong has been entrenched in the deep mountains in the southwest, not taking care of things, and never going out of the mountains to make trouble for others.As a mountain god, it can be said that he is very irresponsible, but as a beast, such a character is already rare, so no one cares what he does in the mountains.

Then he fell in love with a girl.

The girl is from the southwest and is from the Wu tribe.The Wu clan is a large clan in the southwest, they are exclusive and united, they are good at many alchemy with strange effects, they believe in some kind of unspeakable gods, and every 300 years they have to choose a girl from the clan to sacrifice to heaven.

That year happened to be another 300 years, and the girl was chosen to be the goddess of offering sacrifices to the heavens. She was not happy and ran away.

Running into the deep mountains, he met Zhulong by chance and lived with him for a period of time.

Future generations did not personally experience this story, so they can only piece together the cause and effect of the time from the clues. No one knows what happened in the continuous mountains in the southwest. In short, there is only one thing that can be sure.

Zhulong fell hopelessly in love with her.

"...Unfortunately, everything in the world will not always develop according to people's ideas. In the end, the girl was not able to escape the pursuit of her tribe. Her tribe took advantage of Zhulong's absence to tie her back, and quickly and decisively completed it. After the ritual of offering sacrifices to heaven, when Zhulong came back and found that the girl had disappeared, it was already too late."

The girl's fascination dissipated, even if she chased her beyond the world, she would never be able to find her again.

Zhulong was furious and started fighting with the Wu tribe, but even though he was so capable, under his anger, he never expected that since the Wu tribe dared to snatch people from him, they must have found a way to restrain him in advance .

The Wu tribe forged a dagger with all their strength, and then set a trap in a swamp next to the altar where the ceremony was held, and sent the dagger into his throat when Zhulong was deeply trapped in it and could not break free.

Zhulong struggled and rolled in the swamp, and he understood why the Wu clan tried their best to kill him.Not only because of the girl who was sacrificed to heaven, but also because of the flesh and bones of the beast, the meridian scales...

The mythical beast Candle Dragon had never been seen in front of people before, and they didn't know where he lived.Now that he had obtained clues from that girl, he never thought about letting the two of them leave completely.

Goddesses who offer sacrifices to heaven they want, treasures of heaven and earth, and meridians of gods and beasts, they are bound to get them too.

He was absolutely unwilling to let the Wu people succeed, so Zhulong used his last bit of strength to explode his flesh and blood, turning into a cloud of white mist, devouring countless enemies, and finally everything fell silent, leaving only a thick and sad mist, covering the entire world. above the swamp.

The only thing left in the swamp was a skeleton that was mostly submerged in the mud and could never be taken away... and the short knife stuck in the candle dragon bone.

The flesh and blood of Candle Dragon is extremely flammable, and the smoke it turns into cannot be touched by fire. If it entangles those who dare to venture into the swamp, as long as it touches a little, it will drag them into the swamp and stay there forever.

It's just that every 300 years, the fog will disappear for one day, allowing people to go in for a short time to find out.

Most of the later people did not know what happened here. Only by chance, someone passed by the swamp when the mist dissipated, and saw the bones in the swamp, so the swamp got its name.

"This story was recorded by the pen fairy. I went to Langhuan Pavilion to check things once, and I glanced at it by chance. I immediately fell in love with the short knife in the story that can cut the candle dragon under the knife."

——He has already cut off the water, but his other hand is still free.

……

"It's just that as long as there is a treasure, no matter how dangerous it is, it will always attract people who are not afraid of death to go for it." Yan Jinping pulled out the bone and stared at the bright knife light on it against the halo, "That knife is a good thing. I want it, yes If Liu wants it, the others will naturally want it too."

It's just that Yan Jinping wants to play a better game. He has traveled all over the years and made many friends. He also has friendship with Bai Ze who knows everything. After all, he knows more. For all those who are eyeing the dagger, he is almost The one who has the deepest understanding of the Stagnation Swamp.

He knew why after so many years, countless people have been eyeing the dagger, but no one has ever been able to bring it out of the Swamp of Sluggish Bones.

Zhulong's vitality is very tenacious. In order to prevent him from breaking free from the short knife before he died, the Wu tribe cast another spell on the knife so that it can be firmly combined with the dragon bone. It cannot be pulled out.

Yan Jinping even had a strong advantage - he knew how to remove the dagger from the keel.

He learned about the origins of the dagger and the candle dragon from Bai Ze, and also used this to find a book describing ancient alchemy in Langhuan Pavilion, and discovered a formation from it.

It is the kind that the Wu people put on the short knife.

"It's not easy to undo that formation." Yan Jinping wiped the bone with one hand, and put away the dagger.He stretched his hand out of the bubble again, letting the cold sea water help him sort out what happened.

He has never mentioned this to others. It has been too long, and now it feels strange when he tells it, as if he is telling someone else's story: "But I finally did it."

Shen Lianxing listened silently, his mind was spinning extremely fast, and he had already deduced many things from Yan Jinping's previous narration.

Feng An who never showed his face, Feng Qiu who died, and the dagger named "Keep Bone" in Yan Jinping's hand...

All this takes the story in a dark direction.

He didn't interrupt Yan Jinping hastily to verify his guess, but just waited quietly for him to finish speaking.

"I'm not the only one eyeing the dagger." Yan Jinping said, "I know that Xiang Liu will also appear in the Sluggish Marsh on that day, although I'm not sure whether he can take the dagger, but——I was so angry at the time. Sheng, I don't want to let others take the things I like first."

After all, he was Yan Jinping, he was able to discuss friendship with the gods and beasts on the same level, he was very capable, and he had a kind of arrogance of being a powerful man, so what about Xiangliu?It may not be possible to get him.

It is unknown who will get the dagger in the end.

In short, it's fine if Yan Jinping doesn't know, since he has heard about it, there is absolutely no reason to give up before doing it.

Before leaving, Yan Jinping wrote a letter to Feng An, enclosing some herbal remedies for his body, telling him that he had some personal matters to do recently, and would contact him in a few days.

"In my letter, I wrote down the story of the Sluggish Marsh completely, and I also mentioned how dangerous it is and how many people will fight with me." Yan Jinping said, "I originally... wanted Feng An to be a lively storyteller. Let Fengqiu listen."

Their well-behaved little brother clings to Feng An every day and refuses to leave, and is weak. He likes to listen to Yan Jinping telling him stories, his eyes sparkle, as if he has also participated in those wonderful adventures.

"I don't know why that letter was sent to Fengqiu." Yan Jinping's voice was very soft. He thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. "I don't know who tampered with the contents of that letter."

"Feng Qiu thought I was looking for him." Yan Jinping said, "He thought... I wanted to disarm the formation and needed him to 'press the formation'."

"In that letter, I promised him that I would protect his safety, and Feng An also agreed to this matter. It happened that Feng An had something to go out at that time, but the time for the fog to clear could not be delayed, so he didn't tell anyone, just came running."

When I came here, I happened to catch up with Yan Jinping who had set up the formation, and met Xiang Liu who also came to hunt for treasure, and the two started fighting when they disagreed.

Xiang Liu is a snake demon with a huge body and an arrogant personality.He didn't care if it would harm the innocent, and he didn't care what the fight between the two would make this place look like.

Yan Jinping was just delaying time, in order to wait for the moment when the formation took effect.

He guessed right, Xiangliu really couldn't beat him, and he only had a knife at the time, and when he got the dagger, he would definitely be able to improve. When the dust settles, no one will be able to snatch it away from him. .

He was ready for everything, but he didn't expect Feng Qiu to rush out at that time, blocking Xiang Liu's blow for him.

Fengqiu is just an ordinary little crow, he is not in good health, how can he bear the power of Xiangliu's mountain-like tail?

From when Feng An discovered that Feng Qiu was missing, to when he found the Stag Marsh with the letter in his hands, the time for the fog to disperse once in 300 years has passed, and the thick fog of Zhulong's flesh and blood evaporated, covering everything that happened in it.

He only saw Yan Jinping holding Feng Qiu's cold body when he came out.

With that dagger.
