My nemesis begged me after my death

The distance between Chunshan Town and Jiufang Town was less than fifty miles. When Xie Guici and Xue Zhaowei arrived, it was already late and the moon was high.

The whole town was shrouded in a different kind of tranquility and peace. The lights of every house had been extinguished, only the peach blossom trees in front of the town were rustling with peach blossom petals, piled up on the bluestone slabs in front of them.

A gentle spring night.

"Can you feel the evil spirit in this town?" Xie Guici asked Xue Zhaowei beside him in a low voice.He was slightly injured when he escaped from the Northern Wilderness, and his cultivation had not yet fully recovered to its heyday. I don't know if it was because of this that he didn't sense the aura of any monsters in Spring Mountain Town. The aura of demonized monsters tamed and driven by the twelve gates - it is impossible to hide from his perception.

Xue Zhao shook his head slightly: "Not at all."

This town is very popular, and it is much more peaceful than ordinary towns.

"That's weird."

Chunshan Town and Jiufang Town are next to each other, Xu Da only travels between these two places, Jiufang Town has no problems, Chunshan Town does not appear to be in trouble at first glance, but Xu Da was injured by monsters.

Xie Guici murmured softly, he had been able to conclude that there was a problem in Chunshan Town, and now the town is peaceful, this thought in his heart has not disappeared, on the contrary, it has become more determined.

——Not only is there a problem, I'm afraid this monster is also difficult to deal with.

"Has He Yuejun ever mentioned a similar situation to you?"

It was Xue Zhaowei's voice, which caused Xie Guici to be slightly taken aback, but he couldn't discern the obvious temptation in his words.Xie Guici seriously thought about his past experiences. As a "Jiang Deng Year", he has encountered countless monsters and monsters, but this is the first time he has encountered such a "peaceful" situation.

However, he still remembered that he was not He Yuejun who had dealt with monsters a lot, so he said vaguely: "He didn't tell me about such a situation, but he once mentioned that wherever monsters are, there must be monsters. Serious. A town like Chunshan Town that doesn't seem to have any traces of monsters at all... I'm afraid the whole town has problems."

He purposely used his spiritual sense to transmit this sentence to Xue Zhaowei.

Xue Zhaowei's expression moved almost imperceptibly, and he couldn't distinguish the change in his expression at this moment. Looking at it again, he still looked indifferent and unapproachable. The sleeves embroidered with silver dark patterns hung down softly to cover half of the hand holding the sword. , the light blue tendons are distinct.

"Go to Zhou's house first."

Xie Guici has no objection to this. According to the Xu family's second son, the Zhou family is at the easternmost end of Chunshan Town, close to the mountains. He identified the approximate location: "Let's go."

The hem of the white clothes disappeared into the dark night, and the green peach blossoms on the flower tree behind him were still rustling, being blown by the night wind and floating all over the town.

Peach blossoms all over the place.

The Zhou family is also particularly eye-catching in a group of houses, with traces of the fire remaining, and the bamboo fence is low and surrounds the thatched house made of mud.

Xie Guici bent his eyes and looked at him, letting the watery moonlight immerse half of his face, with soft lines, Xue Zhaowei glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, and the outline of the person in front of him vaguely overlapped with the appearance in his memory.

-

The white clothes win the wind and return to the snow, and the cold light of the long sword is reflected in the eyes. The blade of the sword is as fast as the shadow of a frightened bird, picking up three spring peach blossoms, and all seven points of romance are gathered in one person.

It is the Heyue Lord whose demeanor no one in the world does not admire.

He is a completely different character from Xie Guici.

Originally, Heyuejun Jiangdengnian and the mediocre Xie Guici shouldn't have anything to do with each other for the rest of their lives, but because of a so-called marriage contract... Xue Zhaowei retracted his gaze, and together with his dark, unknown thoughts.

The feelings of this moment flowed silently like running water, Xie Guici did not notice at all that he was chatting with the Zhou family who came to open the door.

A childish face protruded from the crack of the dilapidated wooden door, about fourteen or fifteen years old, although it looks a little thin, but with delicate features, it can be seen that one of the parents should be a beauty.

"who are you?"

This is the "precious son" that Zhou Xiucai worked so hard to get.Xie Guici knew the other party's identity instantly, and he asked, "Is Miss Zhou Jingzhou at home?"

"She's married, don't you know?"

There was a look of wariness on the boy's face.

Xie Guici: "We are not from the town. My mother used to have old friends with Mrs. Zhou. She heard that Mrs. Zhou had passed away, leaving only one daughter, so she wanted to take care of her for a good friend, so she let me come to Spring Mountain Town Let's go and see the situation." After he finished speaking, he pointed to Xue Zhaowei and added, "This one is my friend, he came with me."

The rhetoric he made up is not very clever. If he was facing an old fox, he might have been exposed long ago, but it is still easy to deal with an inexperienced young man with Xie Guici's ability.

"Come in first." The boy opened the door with a relaxed expression. "But my sister is indeed not here. It's a bad luck for you to come. She just returned to the next town with her husband today."

He walked ahead with a lighted oil lamp in his hand, and the shadow was squeezed into a ball, swaying with his footsteps, and slipping into the house.

"My name is Zhou Xuan, and I am the younger brother of the girl Zhou you are looking for."

Xie Guici showed surprise on his face at the right time: "My mother didn't tell me that Mrs. Zhou had two children before I came here."

"I was not born to Mrs. Zhou in the first place. I am the son of Mrs. Zhou in the back, but my mother ran away a few days ago." But also steady.The oil lamp was gently placed on the table, and the dark room finally had a little light.

Xie Guici and Xue Zhaowei finally took a closer look at the situation of the Zhou family - it would not be an exaggeration to say that the family is destitute.There was only a square table and two wide stools in the whole room, a bed in the corner, and two piles of torn quilts. Zhou Xiucai lay stiff on the bed like a corpse, with a dry body. The black and shriveled arms stretched out from the quilt and hung in mid-air.

Other than that, there was only one broken window that wasn't patched.

Zhou Xuan took out a chipped bowl from the cabinet next to the wall, poured half a bowl of water, went to the bedside to feed it to Zhou Xiucai, and Zhou Xiucai gulped down the water.From the perspective of Xie Guici and Xue Zhaowei, they only saw Zhou Xuan leaning over to pinch the quilt for Zhou Xiucai before turning around.

"My sister doesn't live here anymore after she got married. You are going to find her in the next town. She married a family named Xu."

He was lukewarm.

Xie Guici answered: "Since this is the case, we took the liberty to interrupt, but it's getting late, and it's inconvenient to travel. I wonder if Mr. Zhou can let us stay in your house for one night, and we will leave tomorrow morning." As he spoke, he took out a handful of broken silver from his sleeve pocket and put it on the table, "These meager money should be used as the expenses for the two of us staying overnight."

Xue Zhao looked down slightly, he remembered that Xie Guici exchanged his spirit stones with the Xu family for these pieces of silver.

Zhou Xuan glanced at the broken silver on the table, "There is another room in the east for you to live in."

"Then thank you, Young Master Zhou." The smile on Xie Guici's lips deepened, his eyes passed Zhou Xuan's shoulders, and fell on Zhou Xiucai who was lying on the bed. Hanging down, the tattered sleeves were half rolled up, and there seemed to be a circle of tiny fluff like some kind of beast trembling on the skinny wrist.

Zhou Xuan took a step forward, blocking Xie Guici's sight.

"If you want to rest, rest early."

Xie Guici nodded lightly: "By the way, I haven't asked Miss Zhou what she looks like, so we won't recognize the wrong person."

"My sister is easy to recognize. There is a half-moon-shaped red mark under her eyes." Zhou Xuan said.

"So that's how it is." Xie Guici mentioned again seemingly unintentionally, "Before I came to the town, I heard that there was a very powerful monster near here, which made me a little worried, but I think the town seems to be very peaceful and quiet. , should be nonsense."

Zhou Xuan's gaze flickered: "This area is under the rule of the Fufeng Sect, so there are no monsters. There must be some skeptical people talking nonsense."

"Exactly."

In the dark night, the moonlight flickered faintly, the stars were sparse, and the milky white mist that rose from nowhere filled the air bit by bit, until it completely enveloped the entire silent Spring Mountain Town.

…………

There were several bundles of firewood in the corner of the room on the east side of Zhou's house, and there was only a bed made of two pieces of wood in the corner. The bed was covered with straw and thin cotton wool, and it felt a little damp to the touch.

Xie Guici sighed: "It's true that the Zhou family's house is completely empty, they don't even have extra bedding for the bed."

He gave so much money that he didn't even get a single bedding.

Xue Zhao looked at him slightly: "Are you cold?"

Immortal cultivators are far less sensitive to the temperature of the outside world than ordinary people, unless it is in an extremely cold or extremely hot environment, there is no difference.This kind of thin spring chill was almost negligible to Xue Zhaowei, but he couldn't help but frowned when he thought of Xie Guici's cultivation.

"It's a bit cold." Xie Guici followed his words and nodded seriously.Quite a few of him really felt the chill at the end of the spring day, and just wanted to see how the aloof Mr. Cangxue would react.

It took a while for Xue Zhaowei to speak this time: "Do you know the setting fire spell?"

The smile on Xie Guici's lips froze instantly.The fixed fire spell is one of the 47 magic spells unified by the disciples of the immortal sect when they first started. It can be said that everyone knows it. It is not a profound and obscure spell, and its effect is extremely limited. Such a trivial use as temporary heating.

For a moment, he didn't know whether he should praise Mr. Cangxue for remembering the use of these trivial techniques when his cultivation was so high, or whether he regretted why he had wasted half a moment talking to Xue Zhaowei.

Xue Zhaowei didn't seem to notice his stiff expression, or he didn't care if he saw it, and said, "If you don't know how, I can teach you."

Xie Guici looked at Xue Zhaowei with complicated eyes for a while, and now he is even more convinced that the famous Mr. Cangxue probably didn't enjoy much outspoken love from his parents and teachers when he was young.Mr. Cangxue is not a master of cultivation, probably he has offended many people in the immortal sect.

However, if he mentioned it directly to Xue Zhaowei, Mr. Cangxue would probably not take the fact that "his verbal expression ability is not satisfactory" to heart.Xie Guici thought for a while, Xue Zhaowei seemed to have a special reaction to the name "Jiang Dengnian", and remembered that he still had the setting of Jiang Dengnian as a surviving person, so he lowered his eyes and said softly: "If it is a crane Yuejun, he definitely wouldn't say that."

Xue Zhaowei heard him mentioning "Heyue Jun" again, for some reason, there was an unreasonable irritability in his heart, and his voice was ice-cold: "Heyue Jun is Heyue Jun, what does he do to you and me?"

The author has something to say:

We still don't know why Mr. Cangxue didn't have a wife that day.

【Ah Ci deliberately gained popularity, but in the end, she still doesn't know how she gained popularity.

Cang Xuejun: I feel uncomfortable. 】
