Chapter 52 Fright
Chapter 52 Fright
The sky gradually darkened, and the outline of the distant mountains gradually became less distinct.
Patrolling back and forth near the cliff, the Jianghu people who had been watching for half a day saw that there was no movement in the end, gradually calmed down their excitement, and dispersed boredly.There are only messy footsteps and trampled bushes and bushes, silently telling the story of this exciting day.
The remaining disciples of Wanjiazhuang were ordered by Wanpeng not to leave, so they built a fire on the spot, found some game to roast, and resigned themselves to their fate to spend the night in this wilderness.
One person said: "It's really unlucky, I have to watch the night in this place where the birds don't shit."
Another person said: "That's it for you, it's not unlucky. Compared to those who lost their lives inexplicably in the scuffle, we can at least sit here, eat some barbecue, and complain a few words."
The previous person shuddered: "That's right, the leader of the Demon Cult is too evil. I saw him pass by a person without touching that person, and the other's arm fell off. This, this is still a human being." ?"
The other person shook his head: "Who knows, it is said that the people in Ten Thousand Devils Nest are all evil spirits crawling out of the underworld."
Another person interjected: "But having said that, this is the most turbulent section of the Guanlan River. If a person falls, let alone one life, ten lives are gone. There shouldn't be any more moths, right?"
One of the previous people interjected: "Then Xiao Heng can't be deduced according to common sense, otherwise, so many masters have dispatched to stop him, and it is still a non-stop wheel battle, wouldn't he lose ten lives?"
No.1 said boringly: "Forget it, anyway, it doesn't matter to us whether Xiao Heng is dead or alive. We just need to get through this night and report back to the owner tomorrow if there is nothing unusual."
Several other people responded one after another, and fell silent for a while.Watching the night is a boring job. After a while, someone suddenly said: "Then Xiao Heng is quite capable, so he could have found a way to escape, right? Why didn't he leave?"
Another person said: "It seems that the Taoist priest of the Five Poisons poisoned a fox he raised."
The former person didn't believe it: "For a fox? Can he even lose his life?"
The person who answered also felt that it was not convincing, so he said vaguely: "I heard it too, or else, don't you see that he only targets the five poisonous priests every time? It seems that the fox is very precious or something. The last five Didn’t the poisonous Taoist priest die under his hands? I just don’t know where the fox went.”
One person sneered and said, "No matter how precious you are, how can you live your life? Even if the fox is made of gold, it's important to save your life, right? If you keep the green hills, you don't have to worry about no firewood. As long as you live, what kind of fox can't be found? I think he was poisoned by the five poisonous priests himself, so he can't leave, right?"
The person who answered was even more uncertain, but he still had to hold on for a while when his information was questioned, so he forced himself to say: "I saw him hugging a fox in the scuffle with my own eyes! Think, if it weren't for that The fox is very important, he won't throw it away and hit it again?"
Several people echoed: "That's true. Although Xiao Heng is very fast, you can still see some white animal in his arms. Thinking about it this way, it looks like a fox."
These people were just ordinary disciples of Wanjiazhuang, important information could not reach their ears, so they could only speculate based on some rumors and rumors, and for a while there was a lot of discussion about "why Xiao Heng didn't leave".
The discussion here is in full swing, but I saw that the faces of several disciples gradually became strange. One of them opened his mouth, opened his mouth again, and finally said in a trembling voice: "That... I, I, I, I..."
Everyone stopped and looked at him.
The man swallowed his saliva: "One time Xiao Heng happened to come head-on in my direction, I, I, I, I saw, I saw, what he was holding in his arms was obviously a person."
The others opened their mouths wide.Their martial arts are low, and they only stand symbolically at the very edge every time to cheer up. Several of them have not even seen Xiao Heng's shadow, let alone what he is holding in his hand.
Someone retorted: "Nonsense, I saw with my own eyes that he was holding a white-haired animal in his arms. It's fine if he said it was a kitten or a puppy. Can anyone look like that?"
Immediately someone nodded yes, indicating that he had seen it too.I don't know if it's a fox, but it's definitely not a human.
The man's voice trembled even more before: "No, it's impossible. I saw what he was holding in his hands, and it looked like an adult. It can't be as big as a kitten, dog, or fox."
There was a moment of silence on the cliff.
Some people didn't believe it: "He Laosan, you won't be entertaining us at night, are you?" Although it was a suspicious tone, the voice was a little strange.
Before the man could reply, the person sitting next to him spoke weakly: "I, I saw it too, then, that person that Xiao Heng is holding in his hand is a person..."
As soon as the words fell, several people echoed: "Actually, I saw it too. I heard everyone said that he hugged a fox. I thought it was strange..."
A small wind blew by, and the wind in the evening had cooled down a bit, giving it a somewhat gloomy taste.Everyone felt a chill on the back of their necks, and their hairs stood on end.
The voice of a young disciple who had just started was trembling as if he was about to die: "Could it be, could it be that Xiao Heng was bewitched by a ghost so he didn't run away?"
Someone interfaced: "That thing can appear in broad daylight, isn't it a ghost... Could it be a vixen?"
He wanted to make some voices to be bold, but when he said the words, everyone looked thoughtful and couldn't help crying: "Don't be like this, I just wanted to make a joke."
A rough man snorted: "Look at all of you, you are promising! Have a little courage, okay? There are so many tricks from the devil sect and ghosts, is it difficult to come up with some little tricks that deceive people's eyes and ears? Now everyone is in the Guanlan River. What's there to be afraid of?"
After thinking about it, everyone found that these words made sense, and they all nodded, feeling that the soul that was almost scared out of their bodies had returned to their place.
People in the Jianghu live a life of licking blood with the knife's head, fearing nothing but fearing ghosts and gods.It is probably due to the impermanence of fate, especially for people in the Jianghu. One day a happy spring breeze may be full of families tomorrow, so they can't help but feel a little afraid of unpredictable things.Mentioning Xiao Heng's superb kung fu is just a sigh, but when he heard an inexplicable creature followed by him, he suddenly became short of breath.
Seeing that the expressions of each of them recovered, the rough man snorted in satisfaction and said, "It's really rare and strange. I think back then..."
Before he finished speaking, there was the faint sound of ring pendants jingling in the breeze.
It was late at night, and it was the wilderness again. Just now, there were people talking about unsolved mysteries in response to the occasion, and now such voices sounded inexplicably.This moment was too horrifying, and everyone stood up with a slam.
One person was too nervous and accidentally kicked into the fire, raising a cluster of sparks.A few people seemed to have suddenly opened their eyes, and bent down to pick up a burning branch, as if they could use the fire to drive away evil spirits.
One person asked: "Brother Wan, you... did you hear anything?"
That rough man belongs to the Wan family, and his voice became a little dry at this time: "Nonsense, I am not deaf! Of course I can hear it."
What else was that man going to say, Brother Wan said angrily: "Shut up, watch carefully, no one else will notice when they come in front of them."
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and the eyes exchanged such a message: Thank God if it is a human being.
As if to confirm what everyone thought, the voice approached extremely fast, it was only vaguely just now, but in a flash, the pleasant ringing sound was close to the ears and could be heard very clearly.As if turning another mountain pass, someone will appear gracefully in front of everyone.As for why Ping Ping Ting Ting appeared, it was because the sound of the ring ring was so clear and sweet, with a strong sense of rhythm and a moving rhythm, that one would feel that the owner must be an unparalleled beauty just by listening to it.
Such ring wearing sound must come from a woman.But looking up the rivers and lakes, it seems that I have never heard of a woman who has such profound internal strength and can travel several feet in an instant.The few people who were still calm looked at each other, and their hearts were a little flustered.
Amidst the uneasiness of everyone, a figure appeared in front of everyone.The figure approached, and some people looked at it tremblingly.
Unexpectedly, there were three people.Unsurprisingly, all three were beauties.Especially the one at the head, she is a rare beauty.Twenty-eight years old, with an alluring appearance, eyebrows like distant mountains with black color, eyes cut with water like water, bright and moving.
Everyone did not relax their vigilance, but became even more like an enemy.This... This, this, this is definitely the gorgeous ghost in Legendary Tales!
These days, there is little entertainment, and listening to a play is a great pastime.The people in the rivers and lakes are no exception. Although one or two don't have much ink in their stomachs, they know many operas by heart.A stunning beauty appeared at night in the wilderness?Are you kidding me?
According to the routine in the play, if you are not a romantic and suave hero, meeting a stunning beauty in the wilderness is no less dangerous than meeting a ferocious dominatrix.Perhaps the advantage of the former is that if you are stupid enough and have no doubts from the beginning to the end, you can die in the gentle village without knowing anything, and be a romantic ghost who died under the peony flowers.
Murong Xuan looked at the crowd in surprise.Because she still can't control her abilities well, wherever she goes, there will always be a group of people watching, so she doesn't bother to go out unless it is absolutely necessary.But usually those who see her will show an extremely obsessed look, what is the situation with these people who are facing a big enemy and are extremely vigilant now?
Although the former annoyed her a lot, but now this is simply inexplicable.
Strange as it may be, she stepped forward with a good temper and bowed: "Everyone, I am..."
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" A shrill scream interrupted her self-introduction.
Murong Xuan was taken aback, thinking that something had happened, she nervously looked at the person who made the sound.But I found that everyone's eyes were wide open, looking like they were frightened.
Seeing Murong Xuan's gaze on him, that person's legs trembled even more like chaff: "She, she, she floats when she walks!!!" Others also turned pale.
Murong Xuan was even more confused.It seems that many people see that she walks very lightly, and some people disgustingly describe her as "like a peach blossom chasing water, like a weak willow supporting the wind", "like a frightened bird, and like a dragon swimming", although she is not too sour. Some shit doesn't make sense, but it doesn't sound too... scary, right?
Why do these people seem to have seen a ghost?
Murong Xuan sorted out her mood, and decided to redeem herself: "Everyone, I am..."
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"The others also acted in unison, waving their knives forward with a look of death on their faces.
Murong Xuan: "..."
"Bold!" Before she could respond, the two women who came with her couldn't bear it anymore, and knocked them out all at once.
Murong Xuan looked at the second daughter suspiciously: "Do I look scary today?"
The two replied angrily: "How is it possible?!" "This group of people must be bewitched!"
Seeing that these people fainted and still looked horrified, their anger could not be dispelled, and they stepped forward to step on their faces a few times.
Murong Xuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said: "Forget it, I didn't come to find them anyway."
I closed my eyes and felt it for a while, then lightly jumped to a tree beside the cliff, bent down to examine it carefully.Normally, this tree would definitely not be able to bear the weight of an adult, but she seemed to have no effect on it.The remaining two girls were startled: "Miss, be careful."
Murong Xuan signaled that it was okay, carefully stretched out her hand, and took out a white dumpling from the small cave covered by vegetation.
