When the devil

At dawn the next day, the bamboo forest was rustling in the wind.

The crisp sound of morning exercise outside made Wei Ling open her eyes.

When he went to sleep and when he lay on the couch yesterday, he was completely ignorant.

After he tidied up his appearance and went out of the house, he walked to the courtyard where the banquet was held last night, but what he saw was Mochi walking back and forth with his hands behind his back, guiding everyone to practice swords with a shout.

Wei Ling walked beside him, and saw that those people held their swords in a messy posture, and they all swung their swords vigorously. Obviously, no one had given them good guidance when they came to Shuiyue Pavilion. Patiently, holding their hands and lifting them to the right position, correcting them repeatedly, the breeze was blowing, his hair was stained with light sweat on his forehead, but his face was smiling brightly.

"Master."

As soon as he saw Wei Ling, Mo Chi's smile became even more adorable, and he moved closer like a puppy.

"Governor Xia said that Murong is not here today, so if I can help, please treat me to roasted sweet potatoes." After speaking, Mochi pointed to the fallen leaves that were burning not far away: "Look, it's roasting!"

In front of Wei Ling, Mochi is as pure as a piece of white paper. Cultivation, eating, and master are the three most important things in his life. Now that he has all three, he is as happy as a branch in the early morning. The little sparrow is jumping up and down even when walking.

Seeing him, Wei Ling felt warm in her heart, and her voice softened: "Go, teach me well."

Mochi nodded, saw someone's hand was down again, frowned, and was about to step forward to give advice, but just after taking two steps, he had a whim and turned around: "By the way, after Pavilion Master Xia woke up Master, Find him in the cellar."

Wei Ling let out a "hmm", thinking about how to get to the cellar, then slowly turned and left.

"Brother." Unexpectedly, just as he turned around, a girl with a sweet smile approached her, holding a smoking sweet potato in her hand: "Roasted sweet potato!"

"I have a share too?" Wei Ling took it with both hands.

The little girl smiled sweetly: "Brother, you are so beautiful, I will treat you to eat sweet potatoes. When I grow up, if I want you to be so beautiful, I will definitely have endless sweet potatoes every day."

Wei Ling smiled, this girl is also a mortal, she is still young, her dress is no more than an ordinary neighborhood kid, even her voice is pure and innocent.

"Thank you." Wei Ling divided the sweet potato in his hand into two, handed half to the little girl, and kept the half for himself. The sweet potato was roasted just right, the inside was soft and sweet, and it was slightly hot to the lips. honey.

Unexpectedly, there is such a human atmosphere in the Shuiyue Pavilion. From yesterday to today, Wei Ling always feels that she doesn't hate this place, forgetting that there are evil demons living here, and that plagues once ravaged.

He ate the sweet potatoes and walked slowly to the cellar. On the way, the little girl walked with him for a while, talking children's words, but when he reached the bamboo path outside the cellar, she stopped again and said that Pavilion Master Xia would not let him go. They went this way, and she went back first.

Wei Ling ate half of the sweet potato, waved goodbye to the little girl, and walked step by step into the cellar alone.

It's a cool autumn day outside, with blue and white clouds, but when I turn into the cellar, it looks dark and damp. The torches are crackling, and the cobwebs in the corners are flickering and appearing from time to time.

Xia Zhou was sitting cross-legged on the table with a basin of water in front of him. He closed his eyes and meditated, his long eyelashes were stained by the firelight and the shadows were mottled. When Wei Ling approached, he trembled slightly, opened his eyes, and then smiled .

"I thought you cultivators went to bed early and got up early, because the sun is shining in the sky."

Wei Ling said: "Sangluo wine is really strong, and I fell unconscious." He walked to Xiazhou, glanced at the water basin, and found that there was a picture reflected in the water basin——

At first glance, it seemed that what someone saw was reflected in the water. He was looking around, looking at the sky and the earth, and finally looking to the side. It was the face of the young man in Wanlefang.

"Murong Chenhao?" Wei Ling called out the boy's real name, and quickly understood everything in front of him: "Is this what Guo Jianchao saw?"

"Yes." Xia Zhou sat up straight: "I cast a magic spell on him that day, and I can feel what he saw and heard."

Wei Ling looked at him: "What kind of magic is so easy to use."

Xia Zhou smiled: "This is what the saying goes."

The two stopped talking and looked into the water basin together. Murong Chenhao seemed to be talking about something, but there were only shadows in the water and no sound.

Xia Zhou asked Wei Ling, "Want to hear it?"

Wei Ling became curious: "I think so."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Zhou dragged him over, and gently touched his ears with his fingertips. The soft touch lingered for a while, and then rubbed him vaguely. Shangxiazhou's pair of phoenix eyes with malicious intentions felt that he was being deceived in his heart, and shrank his body to hide, but at this moment, a chilly feeling dissipated in his mind, sweeping away his distracting thoughts just now.

"Fuck, that bastard Xia Zhou actually asked me to come here alone. If there is something wrong with me, I will kill your entire Shuiyue Pavilion!"

Guo Jianchao's voice suddenly came out of nowhere.

Wei Ling: "...?"

Xia Zhou didn't take it seriously: "This is what he thinks in his heart."

He even waited to hear what was in his heart, sorcery was really beyond words.

Wei Ling's ears were full of Guo Jianchao's complaints about Xia Zhou, Xia Zhou still had a calm expression, and it was all air.

The picture in the water finally looks forward, the surrounding scenery looks like a garden, the small river surrounds the rockery, the scenery is very elegant, Guo Jianchao has been looking around for a long time, and finally looked to the front.

There stood a woman with a pretty face, with two dimples showing in her smiling face.

"Come on, Mr. Guo, I have been waiting for you for a long time."

Mrs. Qiuhua speaks softly, her voice is wet and sticky, just listening to it can be regarded as enjoyment.

Murong Chenhao respectfully introduced, saying that this is Mrs. Qiuhua. Guo Jianchao was stunned, full of doubts: "Madam? Mrs. Qiuhua? How do you call her Mrs....? Is she...married?" Mrs. Hua's face lowered her eyes to her chest again, then looked at her face, then at her chest, and finally fixed on her chest without sighing: "If you marry, marry, she is so beautiful."

Wei Ling said, "It's impossible to tell if she's a demon or a human."

Xia Zhou rested his chin lazily: "It's a demon that always shows its fox tail, just wait."

At this time, Guo Jianchao's heart is full of dirty thoughts, and all these thoughts have been passed to Wei Ling's ears. Fortunately, Wei Ling has always turned a deaf ear to such meaningless words, and whatever Guo Jianchao thinks will not affect his concentration. Watch for movement in the water.

"...This is?" He focused slightly, and was about to take a closer look, but the scene just now flashed by and returned to Mrs. Qiuhua.

"what happened?"

"Just now he glanced at the guards next to him, and the symbols on his clothes looked familiar."

Wei Ling was very patient and kept staring at the water basin, but Guo Jianchao was too disappointing, his eyes seemed to be locked on Mrs. Qiuhua, and he couldn't move away after moving for a long time.

Xia Zhou clicked his tongue: "This mentally handicapped person has more success than failure."

After he finished cursing this sentence, Guo Jianchao had been invited into the pavilion by Madam Qiuhua. At that moment, his eyes swept over the guards next to him again, and Wei Ling was waiting for now.

The moment he caught sight, his face was stiff, and he said in disbelief: "It really is the symbol of the Snow Wolf Army Mansion."

Xia Zhou tilted his head to look at him: "Snow Wolf Army Mansion? Guarding the Snow Wolf Army Mansion in East Realm City?"

"Yes." Wei Ling supported his forehead and fell into silence. Xia Zhou thought he was disturbed by Guo Jianchao's messy Hu's thoughts, and snapped his fingers, breaking his connection with Guo Jianchao.

At this time, Guo Jianchao had already sat down generously in the water basin, sipping tea and admiring the beauties, which was very interesting.

Wei Ling was thinking about other things: "The Snow Wolf Army Mansion is not only stationed in the east, they are an elite battle group directly under the emperor, and the commander is named Bai Lie, known as the Snow Wolf God of War."

Unexpectedly, this sentence aroused Xia Zhou's interest. He changed his lazy attitude just now, and his breath became a little more stable when he spoke.

"I've heard of this man. His sword and spear skills are extremely good. It is rumored that he doesn't touch magic, but he can kill evil spirits with one blow."

Wei Ling thought for a while and said: "General Bai Lie usually stays in the imperial city, and the one stationed in Dongjing City is one of the units under the Xuelang Army Mansion. According to this idea, there may also be Xuelang Army Mansion stationed in Liuli City. "

"That's not necessarily the case." Xia Zhou said: "Liuli City is the base of the Guo family, that is, Guo Jianchao's father, Guo Xianhou, the governor of the state, has more than [-] soldiers and horses in his hands, and he is a faction of his own. He doesn't need snow at all. The Wolf Army House intervenes."

Xia Zhou knew better than Wei Ling what happened near Liuli City, but he seemed to have forgotten that the precious son of such a powerful Guo Xianhou was working hard for him in front of him.Wei Ling is not only worried that nothing will happen to Guo Jianchao.

He said: "Due to the geographical advantages of Liuli City, it is very common for the rich and powerful to buy land and build other courtyards. If the Snow Wolf Army Mansion is not stationed here, it must be the private residence of the generals in the Snow Wolf Army Mansion."

But the discipline in the army is strict, especially for an army like the Snow Wolf Army Mansion, they should never leave their post without authorization and go to the private mansion to guard it.

Wei Ling noticed something strange, and continued to wait for Guo Jianchao to make new progress.

But looking at the water basin again, it is true that the picture suddenly flipped, looking at the sky, Guo Jianchao seemed to have fallen down, and after a while, his vision became dark and dark.

"It seems that someone has drugged the tea." Xia Zhou calmly read it and gave a conclusion.

Wei Ling: "..."

Guo Jianchao was captured by Mrs. Qiuhua just like that!This man is still the son of the governor of the state with 20 military power!Xia Zhou, on the other hand, seemed to be watching an extremely boring play, and started yawning again after stretching.

Compared with Xia Zhou, Wei Ling looked much more serious, and he didn't know what he was thinking, Xia Zhou thought he was worried about Guo Jianchao.

He said: "Don't worry, I won't die."

In fact, he didn't need to say it, Wei Ling knew that Guo Jianchao would not die, and Murong Chenhao didn't follow to enjoy the autumn.

Immediately afterwards, within an hour, Murong Chenhao came back with a sack on his shoulders.

The thing tied in the sack was struggling and howling, Murong Chenhao threw it on the ground, and dragged it to the backyard by the mouth of the sack.

It happened to be the break time for everyone to eat sweet potatoes happily, and all the old, weak, sick, disabled, men and women gathered together to watch the excitement.

"Brother Murong, are you going up the mountain to carry a wild boar?"

asked the little girl who didn't know.

"Brother! Shall we eat roasted whole pig tonight!"

asked the ignorant little boy.

Murong didn't speak, and a kind-hearted strong man helped to lift half of it. The sack was twisted badly, and the strong man smiled brightly: "This wild boar is fat enough!"

Wei Ling was worried for a while, it was Guo Jianchao!His father has 20 soldiers in his hands, have you eaten the bear's heart and leopard's guts?

When the bustle subsided, the sack was thrown into the guest room in the backyard. Murong Chenhao patted the dust on his body and waited for Xia Zhou to give orders as if he was done. I felt a... evil spirit in the sack.

What was in this bag turned out to be a demon.

etc……?That Guo Jianchao...

"Your hand injury is not healed, so don't make any seals." Xia Zhou said to Wei Ling, seeing Wei Ling acquiescing, he gave Murong Chenhao another look, and Murong Chenhao pulled the saber at his waist , a cold light flashed, the blade was sheathed, and the sack opened a big hole.

A gigantic stuffed animal, chained and chained, with blood in its eyes, is brutal.

It turned out to be a tapir!

It was so ferocious, bared its teeth, and let out a shrill cry. The iron chain was pulled repeatedly by it, and it seemed that it was about to be unable to withstand its struggle. Murong Chenhao waved his hand downward, and a thin blade came out from his sleeve. It passed through the tapir's nose and pinned it to the ground.

"Speak human." Murong Chenhao said with a sweet smile: "Or I'll cut your tongue."

The tapir struggled violently, bleeding all over the place, but it opened its mouth, its voice was hoarse, and even trembling: "What are you! You must die!"

It made a woman's voice.

Wei Ling reacted instantly: "Madame Qiuhua?!"

Tapir suddenly turned his head towards him, his blood red eyes reflected Wei Ling's surprised expression.
