Chapter 31: Zhongyuan is coming

Kong Ning had a nightmare.

In the dream, he seemed to see his father and mother quarreling. But they have no idea what they are arguing about.

When I woke up in the morning, I only felt exhausted.

It's even more tiring than the feeling after being sucked in Yuan Yang's essence last night—could it be that after the demon girl came back in the middle of the night, she sucked my essence again?

Kong Ning looked at the wife who came in with the millet porridge with a strange expression, and didn't dare to ask any more questions.

Today's Su Yan looks very happy, humming a brisk little tune while walking, it seems that she has met something happy.

Kong Ning knew that this monster must have made some kind of breakthrough.

But the other party didn't mention it, and he didn't plan to ask more.

An inexplicable sense of depression and tension pervaded Kong Ning's heart, as if something major was about to happen.

But Kong Ning didn't know the source of this weird tension.

He drank the rice porridge in the bowl as calmly as possible, put on the catching fast clothes, and led the Zaohuang Ma towards the yamen.

She intends to stay away from this witch at home.

However, after walking out of the yard, the inexplicable tension not only did not diminish, but instead became stronger.

This made Kong Ning panic.

In the early morning sun, under the locust tree in front of the house, leaves fell on the ground.

The father, who was sitting on the stool reading a book, seemed a little tired. Although he was still indifferent, his mental state was obviously not as good as usual.

On the other hand, the white-haired mother is still kind and kind, and even feels a little energetic, which is in stark contrast to the tired father.

Seeing Kong Ning leading the horse out, his mother smiled and said, "Ning'er, you're going to the yamen."

"Well, I went to the yamen to order Mao." Kong Ning nodded and said, "Mother, what's wrong with Dad? Didn't you rest last night?"

Kong Ning looked at his exhausted father worriedly, and said, "Are you feeling unwell?"

To this, the gloomy-faced father didn't respond, and continued to flip through the book in his hand, completely ignoring the Kong Ning who cared about him.

But the mother smiled kindly: "It's alright, your father has an old problem. Every year when the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, it's like this. It's just fine after the Mid-Yuan Festival."

Kong Ning snorted, then glanced at his father sitting under the locust tree, and didn't ask any more questions.

Indeed, every year around the Chinese New Year's Day, my father would be in a bad mood.

But I don't know if it was his delusion, but this morning's father was very tired. This is a state that has never been seen before.

And the locust tree in front of the house lost its leaves? what happened? Isn't the locust tree evergreen? Even if autumn arrives, the leaves will not fall, let alone it is not autumn yet.

Kong Ning was surprised, and before leaving, he looked at the big locust tree in front of the house.

Under the sun, this big locust tree looks as usual. But I don't know if it was Kong Ning's illusion, he felt that the locust tree seemed to be quite tired... It's really evil.

Did you experience hallucinations because you were sucked in too much Yuanyang essence last night?

The monster at home is really scary.

Sickly, riding a jujube yellow horse to the yamen, he clicked his fist weakly, and Kong Ning leaned in a corner and closed his eyes.

I'm too tired today and don't want to go out for a walk. Nothing to do anyway.

Although Wan'er was just south of the city, Kong Ning didn't want to go there if it wasn't necessary, to prevent her meeting too often from being discovered by the monsters at home.

For a short time, he had nothing to do.

Whether it's the monster from the Xu residence, or to kill the evil spirit in the city, you need to wait for news from Wan'er.

Or wait for the white mist in the mysterious black tank to accumulate.

Kong Ning has an intuition. Now that he has completed the "Qiongguang Sword Canon", he no longer has to be afraid of the monster in the Xu residence.

The next time I use the search ability of the mysterious black canister, the fog pointing to the Xu residence may not be blood fog, but white fog...

But this is just a conjecture, Kong Ning still needs to continue to wait, waiting for the mist in the mysterious black tank to fill up.

And while waiting like this, time flies by.

Kong Ning commutes to and from get off work on time every day, goes home before dark, eats a dinner made by monsters, and then goes to bed. There is nothing unusual about it.

And the monsters at home still have to go out every night, rain or shine.

And she went out earlier and earlier. She used to go out at the third watch, but now she leaves as soon as it gets dark.

When he came back before dawn, the number of injuries has also increased, and the wounds are much more serious than before. Sometimes when he got up early to prepare breakfast for Kong Ning, the wounds on his body had not healed completely, which looked shocking.

But on the contrary, her mood is getting better and better. And the better Su Yan's mood is, it means that the monsters in the county are not doing well.

Sometimes Kong Ning couldn't help but think, if these indigenous monsters in Shanlan County were powerful enough to kill Su Yan, the scorpion spirit, wouldn't he not have to be afraid?

Unfortunately, such expectations never came true.

Although the monsters in Shanlan County could leave scars one after another on Su Yan's body, they were unable to cause any substantial damage to Su Yan, let alone kill her.

Waste is not enough.

Time came to the fifth day of the seventh lunar month.

Kong Ning, who walked out of the yamen when he released the yamen, saw a little purple bird standing on the eaves of the roof of the Zuixian Building opposite.

The moment Kong Ning saw the little bird, the little bird disappeared silently.

This is the secret code he and Wan'er agreed to before~www.wuxiahere.com~ If any evil spirits appear in the city, Wan'er will use this method to notify him.

Kong Ning was excited, after all, this was the first time he had received Wan'er's code in these days.

However, he still has to maintain his normal appearance, come home from get off work, and have dinner with the monsters at home.

Soon, it was getting dark, and the demon girl in a blue dress walked out of the house in the dark, looking for trouble with other demons in the city.

Kong Ning, on the other hand, was lying on the bed and waited for about an hour until the night in the county town had completely quieted down. Then he quietly got off the bed, put on his clothes, and went straight to the south of the city.

Under the darkness of night, Kong Ning's figure flashed quickly between the houses.

With the blessing of 70 years of demonic Taoism, Kong Ning, who was able to fly over the eaves and walk the walls, arrived at Tian's abandoned house in a small Mojian in the south of the city in less than a quarter of an hour, faster than a galloping horse.

Under the cold moonlight, a girl in white was sitting cross-legged on a rockery to practice cultivation.

Seeing Kong Ning coming, the girl opened her eyes and smiled slightly: "Ning Zhaotou, let's start."

Although Kong Ning's surname was Kong, everyone called him Ning to catch the head, which made Kong Ning a little speechless.

But this is not the time to be entangled in such matters, Kong Ning said, "Is there any evil spirit in the city?"

The girl nodded and said, "Zhongyuan is approaching, and the yin in the city is getting stronger. I have been investigating secretly these days, and finally I found an evil spirit that escaped from the gate of **** ahead of schedule."

"Although the strength is not too strong, it is just used to train Ning Caotou... Well, let's go. Quickly and quickly, don't delay for too long."

"The Chinese Yuan Dynasty is approaching, the monsters in this city seem to be extremely restless recently, and the battle is getting more and more acute."

"We can't scare the snakes now."
