Strange Wine and Crane Records

Li Qi fell into a dream, and when she woke up, the tip of her nose was filled with the smell of straw mats. When she heard the sound of shoveling soil, she moved her body, only to realize that she was wrapped into a rice dumpling.

The place where the snake bit her neck was still hurting. She stretched out her hands and feet to get out of the straw mat, and someone yelled: "Ghost!!!" and dropped the shovel and ran away.

Now that the sun was falling, everything was immersed in a deep blue stillness.

Li Qi was still wearing her original clothes. It seemed that this dream was a continuation. She was revived on the spot. After a while, the stiffness of her body gradually resolved, and she lifted up the straw mat.

This is a bamboo forest, and a shallow pit has just been dug on the ground. It seems that the time in the dream is different from the reality.

The wind blew the bamboo leaves and rustled, and it was so dark that she couldn't see the surrounding area. She touched the scar on her neck and walked in the direction where the man fled just now.

After walking for about 5 minutes, Li Xi saw white walls and blue tiles. It was already dark at this time, but the courtyard inside was filled with light, so the bamboo by the wall showed a soft outline.

The servant probably buried the body nearby, Li Qi thought that Xiu Wufeng should be in this house.

When they got closer, the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras colliding with horn cups sounded very lively.

Li Qi walked around to the back door, but the door couldn't be pushed open, it was tightly locked, probably the servant was keeping her "ghost" from closing it.

Erlang was not by her side, only Li Qi entered the dream.

She could only rely on herself. She looked at a banyan tree next to her. It grew outside the yard, but half of the tree crown stretched into the yard, and its roots were hanging down.

Natural ladder.

Li Qi climbed up and saw them setting up a banquet in the distance, singing and dancing. The guests were dressed in strange costumes, and they also looked strange. It didn't look like an ordinary banquet.

With the help of the light inside the wall, Li Xi grabbed the banyan tree's tendrils and came down. Some of the roots were still entangled around her body. She wanted to untie them, but the more they were untied, the more messy they became. There were scars, and there was a sharp pain in her back, as if roots had penetrated into her flesh and blood, Li Qi's strength seemed to be pulled out, and she gradually became weak.

The wind blows the dark clouds, and the moonlight shines.Li Xi took this opportunity to see the bones and mummified corpses wrapped in the beards of the banyan tree.So she gave up struggling, died peacefully, and waited for resurrection.

At this time, a gust of wind blew past her, and the roots on Li Qi's head broke off, and his body fell down along with the remaining roots.

Just now she seemed to see a bird feather with white background and black stripes that spread out suddenly.Is it Xiu Wufeng?

Li Qi raised his head and looked at the visitor expectantly.

A white gauze flutters in the wind, with an Adam's apple on his neck...it is a male crane.

The male crane grabbed Li Qi's chin, raised her head, and asked suspiciously, "Why are you here?"

But shook his head again.

"No, you are not Master Gu Liang, you just look alike."

Gu Liang, Li Qi secretly remembered this name.

The male fairy crane didn't intend to bother her, got up and walked away.

Li Xi shook off the roots on his body, reluctantly pulled out the roots on his back, ah, it felt like a liter of blood was drawn out.

She stood up with difficulty, clutching the wound on her left blade with her right hand. On the way, she saw familiar black cloth shoes. She had seen these shoes through the cracks when she was wrapped in straw mats, and they belonged to the servant.Li Qi glanced behind the grass and found that he had been sucked into a mummy.

Footsteps came from behind, and she quickly hid behind the rockery.

The visitor seemed to have also found the body of the servant, and a woman's voice came, "Tsk tsk tsk, what kind of monsters are here, they can't even control their own appetite, they eat everyone they see."

The man said: "Don't you know that Jinniang and Mr. Xiu have always come here? Hahaha, occasionally such poor quality monsters sneak in."

"Don't tell me, since Xiu Wufeng came, he brought a lot of immortals and ghosts with him."

"This is where it gets interesting..."

The voices of the two gradually drifted away, and Li Qi came out with a frown. It is estimated that there is no good trouble here, she had better be careful.If it dies, I'm afraid I'll miss this banquet when I load the file again.

Li Qi broke into a cold sweat and entered a room, which seemed to be a servant's room, and no one was there.She tore off the jacket on her body and simply bandaged the wound.

Then he found the servant's clothes inside, put on the white-breasted blue clothes, and tied up his hair.

Li Qi hoped that the monsters he encountered later would be quality monsters, and not to eat her casually, so he walked out ostentatiously.

The closer she got to the banquet, the more colorful the sound became. A gust of wind hit her behind her. She bent down quickly, and a monster with an eagle face and feathers flew over her, holding a flagon in its paws, flying around like a headless fly. Then it bumped into the vine-covered pillar in front of it, and after falling down, he still did not forget to drink with a pot, a drunkard.

Before going in, she was summoned. A red-haired banshee caressed a male demon with a lin on his face and said, "You, go get some wine."

Li Qi pretended to be a servant, so naturally he had to serve them.

Food and wine, fruits and vegetables are under the central round table.

She looked over and saw that woman in purple was lying on the long stone bench on the round platform. When she walked over, she heard the monsters calling her Jinniang or Lord Jinse. Today is her ten-thousand-year birthday banquet. Jinniang rested her head on her hands, The green snake was entwined around her arm, spitting out its red point.

She was reclining on the table with a contented expression, overlooking the banquet, with green and purple vines growing from her snow-white feet and entangled the stone bench.

When the interest is strong, their original bodies will be revealed involuntarily. The giant lizard monster encountered in the ghost market was like this, and Xiu Wufeng was also like that that night. At that time, she suddenly spread her feathers, which shocked Li Qi. She didn't intend to take it back either, just flicking and flicking like this made her tremble all over.

But Jinniang's eyes didn't move from the beginning to the end, Li Qi looked down and saw Xiu Wufeng.

She was playing the piano under the stage, wearing plain clothes, arms wrapped in blue silk, and she was closing her eyes to feel the sound of the piano carefully. Among all the monsters, she was the only one who was as gentle and natural as a pearl.

Although she hides among the crowd of rites and music, it seems that the luster of all things in the world is gathered on her, making people unable to take their eyes off.

The sound of her piano is not the main music, but the sound of drums, which makes the atmosphere of the banquet more intense. Listening carefully to the sound of the piano, it seems to hear the sound of the eternal wind, which disappears without a trace but makes people feel at ease comfortable.

It seems that Li Qi's death in this world has no effect on her.

"Go, what are you doing here! Be careful, I'll eat you." The monster behind urged Li Qi.

She walked over to get the dishes, played the piano, turned around and found Xiu Wufeng looking at her.On the other side, her hand holding the dish was slapped by a tiny wisteria.

"You're not dead?" Jin Niang's purple eyes looked at her in surprise, and the surprise turned to anger. A vine wrapped around Li Qi's foot, and she fell down instantly with a quick pull, but she didn't make close contact with the ground. Because there was a warm body behind her supporting her.

The sound of the piano stopped at some point, and the noise of the banquet also subsided.

She said to the people above: "Jinniang's birthday banquet, it's better not to kill."

"Yes, Lord Jinse, I will eat this mortal for you later. I have a way of eating people. I must take out the internal organs in an instant when she is alive and kicking, until the heart is dug out, and the person will die hahaha .” There was a monster shouting in the background.

"What are you? I'll just peel the human skin alive, then chop up the flesh and stuff it in. It's for minced meat and human intestines. It can be dried and stored, which has a unique flavor."

"Then what's the difference between you and eating a whole person? Why don't you just go back to the stove and remake it, and it's so troublesome."

"I don't mind the trouble. This is the essence of cooking. It can be stored or entertained. Now I have perfected it. Master Jinse, I can take this mortal right away." The tiger-headed monster jumped up and said excitedly.

Li Qi glared at him, if Erlang and God Killing Saber were in her hands, this tiger head monster would definitely die!

At this time, a red-clothed female ghost with transparent feet floated over and silently stood in front of the tiger-headed monster.

And those fairy spirits on the seats of the banquet also drew a clear line from the demons around them.Although there were not many people, no one dared to move for a while.

The tiger-headed demon glanced at Xiu Wufeng, and smiled, "It's just a banquet, just be happy." He wanted to turn around and go back, but he didn't think things were lively enough, so he said, "This mortal is really good-looking, I was just talking about it, How could you be willing to eat her, it's a pity that Mr. Xiu took the lead, Master Jinse, I wish you a happy birthday!" After lighting the fire, she went back and sat down as if fleeing.

Xiu Wufeng gestured to the musicians with his eyes, the sound of music started, and everyone chatted lively again.She said to Li Qi: "This female ghost is my friend, you follow her to a safe place first. In addition, take this ointment and apply it on the wound on your shoulder."

Li Xi looked down at the round platform, Jinniang's face was so gloomy that it was about to rain, Xiu Wufeng tapped one foot and jumped up lightly.

The female ghost floated in front of her silently, and she followed the female ghost away.

Although the banquet did not change on the surface, everyone began to gossip under the cover of the music, and Li Qi pricked up his ears to listen.

"Look at that crane, Jinniang became better again."

Li Qi looked at the round platform, and Jin Niang patted Xiu Wufeng's shoulder coquettishly, and then leaned on her chest.Li Qi was so angry that he thought to himself: Why is he pretending to be tender even though he is a ten thousand year old monster.

"Don't say that the crane is long and the crane is short, she is just a demon now, just like us.

If Jinniang hadn't rebuilt the alchemy furnace for her, how could she have lived such a good life, making love to other women. "

Saying that, the two banshees took a look at Li Qi, just like looking at a small white flower in Xiuwufeng's thousands of flowers.

Speaking of which, the old bustard of Yihongyuan once told Li Qi that it was a "regular customer" who bought her back. Unexpectedly, Xiu Wufeng was such a person before.

Would it be the same for her in modern times? Li Qi shook his head. With her body that was about to die at every turn, she would be a good one.But she does often leave the office and go elsewhere, mysteriously.I don't want to, just ask her directly when I go back.

"It's also lucky that Jinniang can bear her. If I want to, I will tie her to my side with vines so that she can't go anywhere."

"If she could do this, Jinniang would have done it long ago. It's not that she is less capable than Yaohe."

"No way, Yaohe's inner alchemy was forged by Jinniang, and Jinniang has been good for thousands of years."

"Although this crane is not older than Jinniang, she has fallen from a fairy body. Her strength is still there. Jinniang is just a plant. It is her advantage to live long enough. And it is said that this demon crane is still alive. It’s constantly devouring Jinniang’s inner alchemy.”

"Ah, how do you know, where did you hear it?"

"You see that Jinniang is getting more and more swallowed, don't you understand? Is she such a person? Get what you want, and kill what you don't like."

"What you said makes sense, this demon crane is really scary."

"I heard that the Fang Cong she wandered in became her tonic in the end." At this time, the banshee looked at Li Qi, "So you'd better be careful."
