Sea Mountain Bright Moon

Wei Liu Shifeng of Shouyang County has been worrying about several cases in the county recently.

One is that since two months ago, there have been frequent incidents of wild beasts hurting people in Nvluoyan outside the city. It is a big source of income in Shouyang City. Now, because of the fierce beasts that came from nowhere to injure people, and even killed several people, it is still parked in the Wu workshop. The family members come to make troubles every day, so now no one dares to enter the girl's shop. Picking vanilla from the rocks, the raw materials were cut off for a while, and the production of incense was also greatly reduced. Shannon, who depended on it for a living, complained endlessly, and asked the government to quickly arrest the wild beasts to restore the foundation of their lives.

It's just that the grassroots people are ignorant, and to put it lightly, Liu Shifeng is not in a hurry. For the past two months, he has also dispatched patrol officers day and night, recruited hunters, and guarded Nvluoyan day and night, almost killing the entire The mountain has been turned over thirty or fifty times, but foxes and rabbits have caught quite a few, but they have not even seen a hair of the beast that hurt people, so that now the rumors are getting stronger and stronger, and it has come out that there are fierce beasts and monsters lurking in the female. There are rumors that Luoyan preys on living beings for food.

The matter of the wild beasts in this compartment is not over yet, but in the other compartment, tomb robbers have appeared around Shouyang.

In recent years, Shouyang has been governed by Liu Shifeng. Although it is not said to be prosperous and prosperous, the weather has been smooth and the people have no worries about food and clothing. However, a corner of the Bagong Mountain outside was collapsed, exposing the underground palace of the Huainan King's Tomb. As a result, many Xiaoxiao people who were already coveting the Huainan King's Tomb flocked to Shouyang. Fortunately, before that, Liu Shifeng sent heavy troops to guard the surrounding area of ​​the Huainan king's tomb. He sent people to repair it, and at the same time sent people to strengthen the patrol in the city. The thieves were thrown into the prison together.

It's just that after the turmoil here, the small Shouyang county government has long been outstretched, and the manpower is even less, and even the elder Liu Shifeng has also become busy.

I just returned to the mansion that day, when I heard an informant report that a group of Miao people came to the city recently, carrying some goods, their whereabouts are quite strange, I don't know where they came from, a group of Liu Shifeng Yahuazi felt that his old waist was hurting again. Recently, the city and the outside are not peaceful. All the manpower that can be mobilized in the government office has been mobilized. Now the government can only use two servants on duty, and one to do it. The cook, you can't let the cook ask questions, right?

After thinking about it, he decided to let go of this move first, considering that a few Miao people in that area would not be able to cause much trouble, so Liu Shifeng waved back the servants, and just drank half a cup of tea, but heard the servant girl in the mansion Come to report, saying that the little lady is here to see you.

Liu Shifeng is over half a hundred years old, and he and his first wife, Ruan Shi, have only one daughter, named Mengli, who has a beautiful face and a gentle temperament, and Yunying is still unmarried at the age of 19. Liu Shifeng has always regarded this daughter as a pearl She is obedient and obedient, but she is allowed to go.

It's just that this daughter never leaves the gate, even in the mansion, she lives alone in Xingyunyuan, and she seldom goes out. When she suddenly heard the maid said that her beloved daughter came to see her, Liu Shifeng was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that he had gone out in the morning Shi patted his head on the matter entrusted to his daughter, and hurriedly asked the maid to invite her to the front hall.

Let’s talk about the tomb robbers. It turned out that Liu Shifeng heard a report from a farm family outside the city a few days ago, saying that his child hit a woman when he went out at night and dug a hole with a shovel outside Bagong Mountain. It must be a tomb robber. The thief, the farmer originally wanted to go home and find more people to round up, but unexpectedly, the woman was cunning, and she heard the noise and carried the crime equipment and took her body, but she was seen by her appearance, so she came to report to the government.

Liu Shifeng remembered that his daughter was proficient in poetry and painting, so he asked his servants to lure the reporter to see him, and asked her to draw the image of the female thief so that he could be apprehended.

If I want to come to my daughter's side, I have already painted it.

After a while, the servants in the hall came to report "the little lady is here".

A gust of fragrant wind came, and I saw a young girl, who seemed to be about twenty-eight years old, with a face like a bright moon, and a skin like fat, with clear eyes and bright eyes, swaying gracefully as she walked, holding a roll of rice paper in her hand, coming to the court, Seeing Liu Shifeng, his vermilion lips parted lightly, exhaling like blue, "I have seen my father."

As soon as he saw his own pearl, Liu Shifeng was elated, with a kind and filial face, and hurriedly led his beloved daughter, "Li'er, come and sit, sit, how many times have I told you, there is no need to be so polite with your father, why should the whole family be so polite?" So out of touch.”

"Father." Sitting down next to Liu Shifeng, Liu Mengli smiled subtly, and unfolded the rice paper in her hand, "The picture you asked my child to draw this morning has already been drawn, please take a look."

"Well, okay, okay, daddy will take a look."

For his daughter's fine brushwork, Liu Shifeng is very confident, but when he unfolds the scroll, Liu Shifeng's confidence is halved. The thin paper stared through, and after a long while, he looked at his daughter suspiciously.

"Daughter, look, did you come to see Daddy in a hurry and took the wrong painting?"

I saw a young girl in the painting, with a face like a peach blossom, red lips and beautiful eyebrows, she looked about sixteen or seventeen years old, and she was pretty and charming, but she couldn't be connected with the tomb robber anyway.

"Father, this painting is indeed drawn according to the dictation of the person you sent to see me earlier. After that person saw it, he also said that the female tomb robber was born like this, and it was not bad at all."

Seeing that his daughter was so determined, Liu Shifeng's doubts disappeared, and he sighed.

"Hey, it's really a bad world. Such a pretty girl was born to be a tomb robber. It's a pity, a pity."

After saying that, he put away the scroll and left it for tomorrow when he went to the government office and asked someone to paint and post a notice.

"Father, are you still worrying about the case outside the city?" Liu Mengli couldn't help but concerned when seeing her father's exhausted expression.

"Oh, that's not true. Now there is still no clue about the vicious beast that hurt people in Nvluoyan, so I had to seal the road first and temporarily prohibit idlers from entering. It's just that there is no Li Xiangcao, and the fragrant households in the city have cut off their sources of income. If it continues I'm afraid it's..." Speaking of this matter, Liu Shifeng sighed heavily again, and patted his thigh, "It's a pity that my old body is useless, I think back then..."

Liu Mengli hurriedly said: "Father, when you are old, you should stay in the government office well, don't you know that you are a rich man, and you can't sit down in the hall, you can let the government servants handle these things, so don't go. "

"But if this matter is not resolved, the old man will not be at ease."

Seeing that her father was still worried, Liu Mengli's heart moved, and she said: "Since that's the case, my son has a way, I wonder if Daddy will listen?"

"Oh? What can you do, let's talk about it?"

"The child has also learned some spells since he was a child. It is more than enough to protect himself, how about..."

Liu Mengli hadn't finished speaking when she saw her father's face change, and he stood up resolutely, saying repeatedly: "No, this matter can't be done."

"Daddy..."

"Li'er! My father knows that you are very talented since you were a child. Although you have learned spells by yourself, that girl Luoyan is extremely dangerous now. Those who were bitten to death by wild beasts died in miserable conditions. So far, Wu Zuo has not been able to prove why What a ferocious beast has done, how can you put yourself in danger as a father! This matter is absolutely impossible, don’t mention it again!”

She had already expected her father to react like this, Liu Mengli didn't argue, she just responded and comforted her father a few words, then got up to leave and returned to Xingyun Garden where she lived.

Shouyang was originally poor, but ten years ago, that is, when Liu Mengli was nine years old, he suddenly developed a method of making incense from the vanilla that is rich in female luoyan, and spread the recipe widely, which made Shouyang gradually prosperous. After that, she lived alone in this Xingyun Garden, planting all kinds of exotic flowers and herbs, and developing spices. She always likes to be quiet. Rong alone takes care of daily life.

After dinner at night, I mixed a dose of soothing fragrance in Xiangfang and asked Lu Rong to send it to my father. After returning to the room, I read two volumes of books. Looking at the dancing candles, Liu Mengli was startled. Come.

In the past two months, the rumors of monsters hurting people have been spreading ups and downs in the city. Even she who never goes out has heard about it. Luo Yan, the people of Shouyang have depended on the incense making formula passed down by her for a living these years, once this way of life is cut off, what should they do in the future?

It's a pity that the old father in the family is too strict with me, and he will never allow me to go to Nvluoyan to check, but... even if the father doesn't allow it...

But after a moment of hesitation, Liu Mengli made up her mind, took out the treasure pouch under the pillow, took a few doses of spices from the incense shop, put them in the pouch, went back to the room and locked it, blew out the light, and opened the back window , flipped out without a sound.

The moonlight is very good tonight, which is quite suitable for outings and enjoying the night.

Liu Mengli has been gifted with strange talents since she was a child. Although she never had the opportunity to learn from a teacher, she only learned some magic techniques and light-handed kung fu in her boudoir with a little talent. Turning out of the boudoir is the wall of the backyard. Earlier, when she was out on an outing, she deliberately left alone, and found a cliff about six or seven feet high, and she could easily go up and down. After leaving the wall, the lights of Shouyang City had already been turned off, and there were only a few guards on patrol in the distance.

Now she made a detour to the dark place and found out the direction of Nv Luoyan, Liu Mengli didn't hesitate anymore, she just jumped away.

After a while, you leave the east gate of Shouyang, and then go eastward for five or six miles, and you will reach a fork in the road. The road to the left is Nvluoyan, and the road to the right is Bagong Mountain where the Huainan King's Mausoleum is located. .

Where should the investigation begin now?Liu Mengli hesitated.

Since the earthquake in Bagong Mountain, there have been incidents of wild beasts hurting people in Nvluoyan. The two places are not far apart, and I don’t know if there is any connection between the two, but now Bagong Mountain is very tightly guarded, and it is not appropriate to force it for a while. If you want to enter, it is better to go to Nvluoyan to investigate now.

After turning into the fork road on the left, and walking a mile further, Liu Mengli could smell the fragrance, sweet with a hint of sour and fishy smell, her sense of smell is very strong, before reaching Nvluoyan, she could smell the smell of vanilla mixed with peculiar smell , which is quite different from the scent of vanilla that is sent to the mansion on weekdays, so I had some concerns in my heart, took out a few bottles of spices from the treasure bag around my waist, and immediately blended them. After a while, the incense was made, and then I chanted the spell With a gust of breeze, the incense was blended into the wind and slowly sent to the direction of Nvluoyan.

What she is currently concocting temporarily is an incense that soothes the nerves and awakens the body. It usually has the ability to soothe emotions and purify the heart. Now she has added lingxiang and frankincense to the incense, which is more powerful for beasts. Now even if there is anything in the mountains The genus of tiger and wolf must obediently become a docile kitten.

But Liu Mengli was still worried, so she concocted another dose of beast-repelling fragrance and applied it on her wrist, and then slowly walked towards Nv Luoyan.

Although Luoyan, the female lead, was staffed by police during the day, there was no one there at night, so there was no need to be afraid of her actions. Liu Mengli only remembered that it had been three years since she came here last time, and she never liked to go out. My memory is not bad, the scenery here has not changed, and the path is familiar.

It's just that I don't know the exact location of the casualties found in Nvluoyan, but Liu Mengli walked around this Nvluoyan for a long time, only heard the low chirping of summer insects, and there was no trace of wild animals, so she couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

Looking up, I saw Li vanilla all over the mountains and plains, growing very vigorously, it is the best time to use it to make incense, but now it is wasted for nothing, no one is harvesting it, I feel even more regrettable.

Unconsciously, she squatted down and picked up a Li vanilla plant that had passed its flowering period, but she noticed something strange.

"what?"

Liu Mengli looked at it carefully, and saw that the vanilla leaves in her hands were uneven, as if they had been gnawed by sharp teeth, and then looked around, they all looked like this, and then brought a piece of vanilla leaves that had been gnawed to her nose After a slight sniff, there was a faint smell of fishy smell.

And... the evil spirit.

It seems that the rumors are not false, there is really a monster in this girl's rock.

How can this be good, I have never seen a real monster, and I don't know if the spells and incense I have learned by myself can be against them.

Just when she was wondering, she could smell the smell of earth infiltrating the air, and heard the sound of slight footsteps in her ears. She was shocked, and dodged to avoid a cliff.

After a while, I could only hear the sound of footsteps gradually approaching me. Under the moonlight, a girl in scarlet clothes approached slowly. I saw her walking lightly. If it wasn't for her extraordinary five senses, she probably wouldn't have heard such a sound. The slight sound of footsteps, seeing that the other party walked with a certain degree of movement, he must be a person with martial arts skills in this barren mountain at night, Liu Mengli didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly held her breath to prevent being noticed by the other party.

Under the moonlight, the person's face was like a peach and plum, his eyes were piercing, and he was wearing a short jacket. At first glance, he looked like a Lianjiazi, but for some reason there was a strange sense of familiarity.

In an instant, Liu Mengli remembered, isn't this woman the female thief that her father asked her to draw during the day?

It's really hard to find a place to go through the iron shoes, and it doesn't take much effort to get here. She wanted to run away after being discovered by the farmer's son that day, but she didn't give up. She was still wandering around this Bagong Mountain, but now she appeared in this female Luoyan What are you doing again?Do you want to dig a robbery hole from here to the Huainan King's Underground Palace?

Suppressing her curiosity for a while, Liu Mengli calmed down, reached into the treasure bag with one hand, squeezed out a touch of incense, flicked her fingers, and with the breeze, it adhered to the female thief without a trace. It is colorless and odorless, but once it is contaminated, it will not disappear for ten days and half a month, and only she can smell it.

Looking at the opponent's actions again, the female thief just walked around a pile of rocks without saying a word for a while, not knowing what she was doing, and after a while, there was a sudden gust of wind, and Liu Mengli was caught off guard. The wind and sand blinded my eyes, and when the wind passed, I opened my eyes and looked, but there was no trace of the female thief?What's more, the scent of incense she had attached to the other party just now disappeared, leaving only a vague smell of blood in the wind.
