The Glass Maiden

Chapter 7 Downhill ()

As soon as the new year passed, the young disciples who had gone down the mountain to practice have left Shouyang Mountain one after another.

Xuanji Linglong and the others also left on the third day. There is no rule on where they will go, but it is an ironclad rule not to return to the Shaoyang Sect during the year.

The three of them stayed in the inn under the mountain for one night, discussing their future itinerary.

"Why don't we go to Fuyu Island first?" Linglong was very excited, she didn't have the consciousness of going down the mountain at all, so she just came out for an outing.

Zhong Minyan had just finished practicing a set of Yaohua swordsmanship with sweat dripping in his hair. He leaned over to look at the map she drew and shook his head: "Don't go anymore. We are not here to play. It's better to decide where to go. , It’s serious to find out where there are monsters and evil people."

Linglong played and played with the little braid hanging on her chest, pouting: "But I want to see Uncle Dongfang! Besides, Xuanji never saw Uncle Dongfang's wife last time. She also agreed that we will be free in the future. Go play! Xuanji, you want to go too, don't you?"

She quickly pulled the alliance.

Xuanji looked at the map, studied it for a while, and said: "The Floating Jade Island is in the east. If we go there with Yujian, it will only take a long time. I have an idea. Let's just give up Yujian and walk with our feet. How good was the past? It will take a few months on the road, maybe I can inquire about the "chaos" of demons and evil people."

Linglong was taken aback, and said anxiously: "How can I go with my feet... When will I go! If there is no inn on the road, there is no place to take a bath... It's dirty, I don't want it! Little six~~~ You said it!"

She ran to pull Zhong Minyan to become an alliance.

Who knows that Zhong Minyan didn't help her, he "groaned" for a long while, nodded and said: "Xuanji's idea is good, just do it. Just go there to cross the sea, and then the sword will fly up. Where there is land. Let's go slowly, this is the experience, Linglong."

"..." Seeing that there was no one to help her, Linglong was silent, and finally got angry and skipped dinner and went back to the guest room by herself.

"Senior Brother Six, my sister's temper comes and goes quickly. It's not good to be holding back alone. Go and persuade her."

Xuanji poured a cup of tea on her own, and said while adding a place name that Linglong hadn't written on the map.

Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, no one spoke. She looked up in surprise, but when she saw Zhong Minyan looking at herself, she was taken aback, "What's wrong?"

Zhong Minyan smiled and said, "No, I think... Actually you have changed a lot, Xuanji."

Xuanji subconsciously "touched" and "touched" her face, saying, "I... people will definitely change when they grow up."

She thought Zhong Minyan said that he had changed a lot.

Zhong Minyan shook his head and said softly: "It's not about this. Your previous headache temper seems to have reduced a lot, and it seems that you have more things. It seems that the uncle has taught you a lot."

Xuanji didn't speak, and looked down at the map he was drawing, as if suddenly surprised that he was right. Inadvertently, she seemed to have really learned a lot. Before, she didn't understand the use of memorizing the map. use.

Zhong Minyan said slowly: "I still remember the last time we went to Lutai Mountain to catch monsters together, and you looked embarrassed at that time. Even Sifeng had a headache..."

Speaking of Sifeng, both of them were a little silent.

After a long while, Xuanji asked carefully: "Sixth brother... Have you ever contacted Sifeng in the past few years?"

Zhong Minyan was startled, and suddenly said, "No...what about you? I remember that Si Feng reminded Linglong many times and asked you to write to him after you were injured. Did you write?"

Xuanji's face suddenly became bitter, and after a long time, she whispered: "I...forgot."

"Why did you forget?!" Zhong Minyan jumped up, and finally couldn't hold back the gentleness, exposing the true "sex" character, "What a pig head!"

"I went to Xiaoyangfeng and remembered that I forgot to ask Linglong how to write to Sifeng..." Xuanji held her chin, very helpless, "Later, I was busy learning this and that with the master, but I forgot."

"You really can't count on you for anything! Forget it, I'll go up! The province is **** off by you!"

Zhong Minyan turned around and left.

"Wait..." Xuanji stopped him, "Then...you can also ask Linglong now!"

Zhong Minyan turned around and smiled mockingly: "It's been four years, how could she remember. You sisters..." He pointed to his head, "Both are almost a virtue."

Why didn't he contact Sifeng himself? Xuanji is very depressed, this is probably what the master said to provoke her anger. Zhong Minyan is always like this, anyway, he is wrong, his uncle Zhong is right.

She bowed her head to fill up the map, feeling a little tired, and went upstairs to rest by herself.

When I saw Linglong the next day, she was as okay as she expected. Zhong Minyan was so comfortable yesterday that her eldest lady laughed like a flower early in the morning and called for them early, and she waited downstairs.

Seeing Xuanji coming downstairs, she quickly waved: "Xuanji! Here and here! Shall we leave after breakfast?"

Xuanji took out the map from her arms, looked at it, and said, "If we go east, we have to cross the Posu River first. After crossing the river, there should be a town. Let's look at the situation there."

"Okay! I listen to you." Linglong smiled sweetly, not the same as yesterday.

Zhong Minyan is really capable. She looked up at him. He pretended not to know, and tried to drink soy milk with his head down, but he choked and coughed desperately.

"Look at you, I'm not honest about eating." Linglong quickly helped him pat, as if she was a good wife and mother.

Zhong Minyan's coughing still didn't stop, and suddenly two or three men in dressing clothes were walking outside the inn. One of them walked to the shopkeeper and asked: "Excuse me, how many days are there to Shouyang Mountain from here?" "

Hearing his accent, the three of them looked like a foreigner and couldn't help looking there.

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "The guest officer is going to Shouyang Mountain! Not far, not far, go up the road behind the town, and walk for about two or three days before you see the gate of the Shaoyang School. Ask the guest officer, but there are some monsters in Guixiang making trouble, so come to ask the fairies in Shaoyang to get rid of the monsters?"

The man sighed and shook his head repeatedly: "Exactly. I am waiting for people from Wangxian Town in the east. The town was haunted the other day. At midnight, I heard ghosts crying and howling wolves, and everyone was so scared that everyone did not dare to go out. For more than a month, the old and weak "women" and children in the town died of illness, disease, and death. I really couldn't go on like this. Later, I heard a wandering Taoist say that the Shouyang Mountain Shaoyang School is a world-famous place for cultivating immortals. Please exorcise the fairy."

When the shopkeeper heard that, he said, "Well, I have only heard about the Yin Yang Yong Jue. Ghosts and gods are not common. If it is a monster, the immortals on the mountain are good at it. When it comes to exorcism, I'm afraid... …"

The word was not finished, but a clear voice from the back said: "The uncles, we are willing to exorcise ghosts for Guizhen! Please come over and tell us."

Everyone hurriedly looked around, but saw three young men and women sitting in the lobby, with handsome faces and good temperaments. It was Xuanji and the others.

It turned out that Xuanji heard that it was Wangxian Town. After checking the map, she was in the east. It was in line with their schedule. Linglong was also a lively person. He heard that he was going to exorcise ghosts, so he quickly summoned several of them.

Seeing that they were wearing swords on their waists, the few people must have been wise men, so they hurried over to sing and reported each other's names. It turned out that the three of them were brothers, all named Zhao.

Zhong Minyan clasped his fist and said, "We are the practitioners of the Shaoyang School who went down the mountain to experience. We also ask Uncle Zhao to elaborate on the haunting situation. If we can help, we will naturally do our best."

Then Elder Zhao sighed: "Brother is interested, just now the shopkeeper said that people who cultivate immortals are not familiar with the matter of exorcising ghosts..."

Linglong smiled and interrupted him: "Hey, you can't say that! The so-called seeing is believing. If you don't take a look, how can you know what we can do or not. Uncle let's talk about the situation first!"
