The Glass Maiden

Chapter 54 Spirit Beast (2)

The head catcher saw that both of them were wearing sabers. Although they were dressed in elegant clothes, they had the "color" of the wind and dust on their faces. They must have some sort of ways, and finally nodded in agreement.

The first thing Xuanji did when he got the deposit was to pay for the wine. The bartender let go of Yu Sifeng angrily, and said sternly, "Forget it! Next time you dare to eat the king's meal, I will beat you two little ghosts. Break!" After talking, he walked away.

Xuanji frowned and looked at his back, and whispered: "This person is so annoying, he is so arrogant after paying."

Yu Sifeng straightened out the neckline that he had caught "chaos", smiled lightly, and said, "Look at me, give him a trim."

He took out an iron marble from his arms, pinched it between his fingers, making a gesture to pop it out, Xuanji hurriedly held it: "No, he's just an ordinary person, how can you eat it!" Yu Sifeng said The marbles can smash the big glass cylinder, she has a deep understanding, if it hits that person, it will hurt the bones.

He shook his head, flicked two fingers, and made a "pawn" sound, but the marble fell on the ground and rebounded, hitting the man's knee. He yelled and fell to the ground. It took a long time to get up and look around. He didn't know how he fell, and finally he could only go back to the tavern swearing.

"Falling him down, this is his reward for offending you and me." Yu Sifeng smiled slightly, with a naughty smell hidden in his eyes, very childish.

Although Xuanji took off the notice and got the deposit, the head catcher was still very worried about both of them. Hearing that they were going to Pingliang right away, they immediately gathered the people and selected four loyal and powerful subordinates to follow them. , Ming is anaphora, but it is surveillance.

"From here to Pingliang, there are official roads all the way, galloping horses, and you can get there in one day. If you are going to be a strange fire, please ask the two little knights. The one-month period expires and the matter has not been resolved, the deposit will only be troublesome. The two will return it to the Yamen."

The head catcher is very rude. In fact, the time given above is within half a year, but he always feels that these two young people are liars, and the first impression is not good, so only one month is given to them. If they are not successful, Then pay the deposit and leave.

Yu Sifeng clasped his fist and said: "I won't mention the miscellaneous matter for the time being, and I would like to ask the adults to explain the strange fire in detail. We will understand the situation."

The head catcher didn't expect him to ask such a question. He didn't dare to neglect at the moment, so he explained the situation in detail.

It turned out that the strange fire did not appear in Pingliang for the first time. According to locals, a strange phenomenon had appeared on the night a few days ago. The fire on the top of Longshou Mountain in the east was shining and connected to the sky. It looked like it was Skyfire falls generally. The next day someone discovered that the entire Longshou Mountain had been burned for more than half, and huge black burns spread from the top of the mountain. It looked like the flame would walk by itself, going west, passing Longshou Mountain, high mountains, and along Jinghe came to Pingliang. The reason why the people in Lutai Town are so scared is because they are too close. I don't know when the strange fire burns to their doorstep. According to the spreading trend of the strange fire, Lutai Mountain cannot be avoided here.

Yu Sifeng heard that, "Yin" for a long while. Xuanji tugged on his sleeve and whispered: "It sounds like a big monster, the kind that can breathe fire."

Yu Sifeng frowned, and couldn't think of the huge monsters, which kind of monsters were on fire. Besides, listening to him say this, the place burned by the fire is so terrible, it is not an ordinary flame. Could it be that a certain sacred beast in the sky failed through the walkway on earth?

When the head catcher saw him and two of them silently, only when they were cowering, they said: "This matter is really strange. If it is inconvenient for the two of you..."

Yu Sifeng smiled and waved his hand, "My lord is worried. Since the notice has been revealed, we won't leave Lutai Town unless the matter is resolved." He looked back at the four catchers dispatched by the chief catcher and said again. : "It is best for all four of you to bring two bags of water with you. The horses should also pick the fastest. Other things do not require preparation."

The four said yes, and asked, "Should we set off now? Two more horses for the two little knights?"

Xuanji and Yu Sifeng smiled at each other and did not answer. They walked to the gate of the office and then turned around and said: "No, let's go to Pingliang and wait for the four people." After saying that, the sword flew up at the gate and disappeared in the blink of an eye. It was shocked that everyone rushed to the door and looked around, only then did they understand that they were really cultivators.

In fact, flying swords in public is not allowed, because they are afraid of causing a sensation, but the two of them were annoyed that each other underestimated themselves, and unexpectedly thought of "showing" each other with one hand. After flying, Xuanji laughed. Said: "I think, in fact, sometimes we are quite bad."

Yu Sifeng also thought it was fun. They are all young people who are accustomed to "sex", and this play is just a little experiment.

Lutai Town and Pingliang were not far apart, and the two swords arrived almost in the blink of an eye. Xuanji saw that there was a lot of farmland here, endless, there were paddy fields and mud fields, and the chief catcher said that Pingliang is a granary and specializes in producing grain.

At this time in the afternoon, when the sun was the hottest, the two walked on the ridge for a while, there was nothing to cover, only hot and sweaty. Yu Sifeng took a breath and sighed, "Strange, Pingliang has never been so hot in summer, it's just breathtaking."

Xuanji was even flushed with heat, looked around, and sniffed with her nose, before saying: "It seems that I don't smell the evil spirit, but this kind of heat is not the same as the summer heat. The fire is related."

Seeing someone on the ridge opposite, she immediately ran over and asked, "Where is the strange fire nearby?"

The man was unprepared and someone behind him suddenly rushed up, and he was so frightened that the hat on his head also rolled off, revealing his silver beard and hair, turning out to be an old man. Yu Sifeng hurriedly supported him, and said softly: "I'm sorry the old man, I scared you."

When the man raised his head, the two of them were stunned. It turned out that his beard and hair were white, like silver frost, but his face was young and immature like a youth, and his eyebrows flew diagonally, and his eyes were clear and enchanting, and he was a face of cold beauty. man.

He faintly pushed away Yu Sifeng's support, picked up the hat on the ground, put it back on his head, and whispered: "I don't know this matter, I'm just a passerby."

Let's just leave. Xuan Ji was startled and said: "Why... I thought he was an old man."

Yu Sifeng groaned and said: "I have heard that there is a disease that young people will have white hair, and gradually the skin on their faces will also turn white... That kind of disease is very rare and terrible. Maybe this person is. One... just now we are really rude."

After speaking, I suddenly thought of something, clapped my hands and shouted: "No! He is not!"

Xuan Ji asked strangely: "What's not?"

Yu Sifeng refused to answer, turned his head to look for the figure of the man, but saw a hundred ridges, empty, where there was half a figure! The man just now was obviously not far away, and disappeared in the blink of an eye!

Xuan Ji also found something was wrong, and said anxiously: "Why is he missing?! There is no place to hide here!"

Yu Sifeng said: "Look, the weather is so hot, we are all sweaty, but I saw the man just now, but his face was clean and there was nothing. Besides, although he said he was a passer-by, you So he has a baggage? It's weird to want to come!"

What's more, it must not be easy for this person to disappear on the ground in the blink of an eye.

"Sifeng, do you think he has something to do with strange fire?" Xuanji walked around and made sure that there was no place to hide around, so she had to come back and ask him.

Yu Sifeng shook his head: "I don't know... Forget it, go ahead and ask if you find someone."

The four hunters in Lutai Town rushed to Pingliang in the evening. Xuanji and Yu Sifeng had already found the farm and asked about the strange fire.

"The strange fire has been going westward. The local old man said that the field in Lijia Village was burned last night. According to this trend, tonight should be out of Pingliang Town to the woods near Huangniaopozi outside the town. So, Tonight, Miss Yu and I are staying at Huangniaopozi, and trouble the four of you to watch the movement outside the woods. If there is any change, we will immediately release an early warning bomb to notify us."

After that, Yu Sifeng gave a slender firecracker-like thing to each of the four and taught them how to use it.

Hearing that the two of them were the only ones to deal with the strange fire, he couldn't help but worry: "Doesn't the girl and the son need us to help? Only you two... this... too dangerous."

Yu Sifeng shook his head and said: "This matter is not something you can handle. You have to go up and die. Peace of mind, we have our own countermeasures. Please hang the water bags on your body at any time and don't throw them away."

Everyone had already seen their sword skills in Lutai Town, and there was no doubt about them, and they nodded hurriedly. While talking, the owner of the farmer who stayed in again brought wine and vegetables. Pingliang is a large grain-producing town, and the dishes are nothing unusual. The crowd ate for a while, drank the two jars of wine, and looked up to see the sky above the moon. However, they did not feel as cold as water at night. Instead, they became hotter and wetter.

An old man of the host family sighed: "It's almost time. It's so hot, and it will be blazing after a while. No one dare to go and see what happened, I'm afraid it will be burned."

A gust of wind blew into the window, which was also hot. Not only did it fail to eliminate the heat, it made it even more stuffy. Xuanji was about to roll up her sleeves and fan. Suddenly, there was a clear roar from a distant place, like some huge animal roaring low and low, but it was not unpleasant, clear and sweet.

The old man pointed out the window in amazement, and said anxiously: "Come! Fire!"

Everyone hurriedly turned their heads, and saw from a distance, thousands of bright red flames rose into the sky, piercing the night sky. The flames were shining and fluffy, and it really looked like the sky was falling. Yu Sifeng patted the table, and the six flew out of the window and ran towards the yellow bird **** that glowed.

Xuanji was the most impatient and couldn't wait to run. When Yu Jian flew up, Yu Sifeng hurriedly confessed to the four catchers, and Yu Jian followed. When I got to a high place, I immediately saw everything in my eyes. The huge woods at Huangniaopozi really burned up. The flames were raging, almost burning the sky, and the color of the flames was even brighter than ordinary fires. Bright, no wonder half of the sky is reflected.

Seeing the dazzling firelight, Xuanji seemed to have some huge thing of the same "color" slowly moving, almost the size of a small forest, so she couldn't help taking a breath, and said softly: "What is that?"

Before the voice fell, he heard a clear cry from the thing, and then followed, flying lightly from the ground, two pairs of huge fire wings, countless fire points splashed down. Seeing that the thing had wings and looked like a bird, Yu Sifeng dragged a huge, thick snake's tail, with an electric flint in his head, and blurted out: "It's a snake! A beast is a snake!"

Xuanji didn't wait for him to finish, she had already chased her Yujian, and drew out Bengyu with a "buzz" sound, it made a pleasant chirping sound, full of sword energy, pinched a sword art for her, and waved it out. In an instant, countless silver "color" swords hurriedly "shot" at the huge and beautiful fire beast. Obviously, it did not expect someone to raided behind. It was abruptly hit by the sword aura, hissed, and circled in the air. Suddenly landed and disappeared.

"Catch up!" Yu Sifeng yelled.
