Little Peacock Raising a Snake

During the unfriendly conversation between the two, a barrier that could block the sound was silently opened around them.

Any sound that comes out of the barrier is beyond the perception of mortals.

Judging from this enchantment, the spiritual power controlled by this woman is the power of the underworld. This kind of spiritual power is not conducive to the cultivation of goblins, but it is very compatible with the demons. Presumably this woman should come from the demon world.

"Demon race?" Qu Linyan carefully looked at the person in front of him, "It's rare."

The woman in green leaned back on the guardrail of the corridor, crossed her arms, and joked: "Why, do demons still look down on demons?"

Qu Linyan said: "I didn't say that, not only can I appreciate it, but I also feel vigilant."

All the creatures in the world are called demons when their intelligence is opened, and even a flower and a grass can become a cultivator. Even if the land is divided into three parts, and there is a place for the demon race, most of the demons still choose to stay in the human world where they were born, so it is not surprising to see monsters in the human world .

But the demons are different. Most of the territory of the demon world is dark and bitterly cold, and all races in the demon world are also born with cold blood and cold body.

For the demons, the human world is hot and scorching except in winter. This kind of temperature will make many demons with lower cultivation levels miserable, so few demons are willing to live in the human world.

Now a demon clan suddenly appeared in front of her, and it still came behind her without anyone noticing. The cultivation level must not be low, presumably the comer was not good.

It's just that Qu Linyan has offended so many people, but he can't remember who he has offended in the devil world.

"Are you thinking, where did you offend me?" The corner of the little witch's mouth curled into a smug smile.

Qu Linyan smiled perfunctorily: "I have offended so many people that I really can't remember."

"I have no enmity with you, I just want to make friends with you." The little witch said, standing up straight, and took two steps towards Qu Linyan, who was very wary of her, "Qu Linyan, the patriarch of the Jiao clan, , broke into the heavens alone 500 years ago, and offended the fox king and the head of the bird clan in Qixia a few months ago. It's notorious. It's so good. I have admired you for a long time, and I can see you today..."

Qu Linyan asked coldly: "How about seeing you today?"

"It's a bit of a surprise to see you today." The little witch said, looking at Fu Xiaoba and covering her lips with a smile, "I'm still a person who is not afraid of death, so I don't have any weaknesses."

Qu Linyan heard this, and couldn't help feeling angry: "I don't have the patience to talk nonsense standing with people."

After finishing speaking, he took Fu Xiaoba's hand and started to leave.

The little witch didn't go forward to chase, but put her hands behind her back, and said lightly: "I have done you a big favor, you don't really think that Fu Zhuochen has never looked for this place, do you?"

Qu Linyan couldn't help but stop when he heard the words, "How much do you know?"

"I don't know much. Fu Zhuochen is looking for the girl next to you, but he is in a hurry. You guys had a fight, but I have been watching from the sidelines."

The little witch said again: "I am the best at concealing the breath. If you want, I can make a seal for her, so that Fu Zhuochen will not recognize her even when he stands in front of her."

Qu Linyan couldn't help frowning. When she came back just now, she really couldn't sense Fu Xiaoba's spiritual breath. It wasn't until she pushed the door open that everything went as usual.

It turned out that it was not an illusion, it was the woman behind who hid Fu Xiaoba's spiritual breath.

But she has never met this person before, so she is so courteous for nothing, so she must be asking for something.

Qu Linyan turned to look at the little witch, and said, "Let's cut to the chase, what are you planning?"

The little witch walked forward slowly, and said: "I got into some trouble, and I want to ask someone to help me. I can pick and choose, and you are the most suitable."

"I don't like being nosy."

If you think about it with your toes, you can see that the troubles that this kind of elusive guy can encounter must not be small troubles. Whoever messes with this kind of trouble is a fool.

"Then I can only go to Fu Zhuochen to make a deal." The little witch said, passing Qu Linyan with a smile, and deliberately reminded, "I have hidden a soul mark on this little beauty." , if you can't find it, you can wait for half a month to eliminate it by yourself. However, during this time, no matter where she is, I will know."

This is a threat.

Fu Xiaoba subconsciously posted a few points to Qu Linyan. For some reason, the woman in front of her was obviously smiling all the time, but every word she said made her feel uncomfortable.

Qu Linyan watched the witch go down the stairs coldly, his heart fluttered for a moment.

When the witch walked out of the inn gate, turned around and disappeared, Qu Linyan suddenly gritted his teeth, threw the money bag into Fu Xiaoba's hand, said "pay the bill", and quickly chased her out.

As soon as she chased out the gate of the inn, she turned her head and saw the little witch in green with her back leaning against the wall, with a proud expression of "I knew it", looking up at her with a smile.

All right, this girl is sure she will catch up.

Qu Linyan couldn't help taking a deep breath, angry, but still pretended not to care: "Little girl, why don't you just stand here and wait for me?"

The little witch narrowed her eyes and smiled: "If there is a choice, I still want to choose you."

Qu Linyan said: "What's the reason? His cultivation is higher than mine."

"It's hard to tell if you really fight, but you are the one who went to heaven and then to Qixia." The little witch's eyes were piercing, "I heard that on the day when the cold water caused a vision from heaven and earth, the fox king and the head of the bird tribe were guarding Qixia. There are hundreds of goblins who have cultivated for more than a thousand years, and Fu Zhuochen is also present, so you still survived?"

Qu Linyan was speechless for a while, it turned out that hard life can also be a bonus item.

"Besides, that guy is not easy for you to control." The little witch's words were quite straightforward, "As long as he finds that little beauty, I will be useless to him. You are different. You want to take her with you." Returning to the Flood Clan, if I don’t help you, then you won’t be able to feel at ease before you go back. Since you and I have our own goals, think carefully about whether you want to cooperate with me.”

When Qu Linyan heard the word "purpose", he couldn't help but become nervous, for fear that he might fall into this woman's hands and make Fu Xiaoba hear something he shouldn't have heard.

"What purpose can I have?" Play stupid, you must play stupid first at this time.

If it's useless to pretend to be stupid, do you want to kill someone?

It's just that the woman in front of her hides her spiritual breath very well, and she can't sense the level of cultivation at all. If she wants to silence her, whether she can kill her or not is also a serious problem.

The little witch fell into deep thought when she saw that Qu Lin's smokey eyes showed a little guilty conscience, she immediately made a mistake, put on an expression of "I understand even if you don't need to explain", and said firmly: "You like her and want to take her back Eat it and wipe it clean!"

Qu Linyan couldn't help laughing for a moment, but she was nervous for a long time, but the purpose in the little witch's eyes was completely different from what she thought.

It's just that when she said such words, she was confused, and subconsciously looked back at Fu Xiaoba in the inn.

The silly girl was standing in front of the counter with her head tilted, looking curiously at the shopkeeper's abacus. At this moment, feeling her gaze, she raised her head and grinned at her, silly and cute.

If only Fu Xiaoba was just an ordinary peacock...

For a moment, Qu Linyan felt as if he was sick.

Sickly indecisive, without assertiveness.

She should be a cold-blooded person, at least in the Three Realms, no one who knows her name thinks so.Anyway, she never cared about other people's opinions, she only wanted to save Qu Muqing, for this she could do whatever she could, without fear of life or death.

However, the cold-blooded man met a little peacock.

She was seriously injured that day, so she had to shrink her body to the smallest size, saving the last bit of weak strength to linger on. In that way, she couldn't even show power in the face of a peacock the size of a pheasant.

- Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you.

At that time, the first sentence Fu Xiaoba said to her was immature and cute.

With her ability, she kidnapped a 500-year-old Fu Xiaoba from Wuyou Valley without even asking about her personal wishes.

At her speed, it only took about ten days to return from Wuzhou to the Jiaozu.

But in fact, she asked Fu Xiaoba's wishes, and she wasted a few days here, and even enjoyed it.

She wanted to go back slowly, more slowly, as if this road would not come to an end if it walked slowly, and if this road did not come to an end, Fu Xiaoba would not become the final victim of being exploited by her.

I really like this feeling, isn't it the guilt caused by revenge?

She didn't want to think too much, she just turned her eyes away from Fu Xiaoba, looked back at the girl in green, and said hesitantly, "Tell me, what do you need my help for?"

No matter what, now she just wants to hide from that turkey and not give him any chance to take Fu Xiaoba away.

The little witch smiled all over her face: "The world is not fun, I want to go back to the world, this just happens to be on your way, do you want to ask for help?"

"It's that simple?" Qu Linyan had a look of disbelief.

The little witch frowned: "Didn't it mean that I got into some trouble? I was afraid that someone would be ambushing me on the road, and I was not at ease when I was alone. I always wanted to pull someone to cushion my back. If I fell, it wouldn't hurt too much." .”

Qu Linyan asked: "It's quite straightforward, do you want me to protect you back?"

"Of course, my cultivation base is low, and I am timid..."

Qu Linyan laughed twice, as if he had heard some terrible joke.

The witch didn't care about her reaction, and continued on her own: "I'm just a weak woman, I can't lift my shoulders or hands, and I'm good at hiding. It's so far back to the land from here, so I don't have to be careful. ?”

Well, this joke has been escalated, Qu Linyan laughed at it.

Can't lift the shoulders, can't lift the hands?This word from Fu Xiaoba's mouth is open to question. This little witch who can block Fu Zhuochen's spirit search technique and dare to hide in the dark to spy on her and Fu Zhuochen without being discovered really has nothing to say. Eloquent.

"You have to tell me, who did you mess with?"

Seeing Qu Linyan's hesitant expression, the little witch pretended to be surprised and said, "Why, a person who dares to go alone in the heavens is also afraid of trouble?"

"Girl, I hope you understand that if I dare to keep her by my side, I won't be afraid that Fu Zhuochen will make trouble for me." Qu Linyan said, "Indeed, I have a lot of troubles on my body, and I have already broken the pot. If you can help me Block Fu Zhuochen's spirit-searching technique, let me save some energy on this matter, and I can do something for you. However, you only help me deal with a person I can deal with, but you want me to do it for you. It's a bit unfair for you to take an unknown trouble, right?"

"I don't even know your identity, so I help you rashly. If I offend some important person from the demon clan, I will really make enemies in the three realms of immortals, demons, and demons, and my name will be immortalized forever."

The little witch nodded when she heard the words, and said: "I assure you, as long as I can return to the Demon Realm smoothly, the Demon Clan will be the backing of the Jiao Clan in the future, so that the fairy and demon worlds will not dare to touch your Jiao Clan again." cent."

Qu Linyan clenched his fist unconsciously.

The demon world respects the fox clan now, and she just offended the fox and bird clan a few months ago, I am afraid that the life of the Jiao clan in the demon world will not be too easy in the future, if it is really backed by the demon clan, it will be a good thing.

With such conditions, it is hard not to be tempted, but the identity of the person in front of him is unknown, so it is hard to guarantee that he is not speaking wild words.

Qu Linyan frowned: "Who the hell are you?"

The little witch said, "You can call me Miss Shen."

After hearing this, Qu Linyan smiled faintly: "You don't even say your full name?"

Miss Shen spread her hands: "Bad guys always have to be more mysterious. How about it, Patriarch Qu, don't you want to take a gamble?"

This woman must not be simple.

Qu Linyan pondered for a moment, then raised his eyebrows and said, "It's fine to go together, but I'm a jerk."

"How gritty can it be?"

"Grind as much as you can." Qu Linyan said with a smile, "I want to walk back and use my legs."

Miss Shen seemed to have heard something unbelievable, she was stunned for a while, and then she came back to her senses and said, "Okay, I also like traveling in mountains and rivers."

"Then I hope you will not forget today's promise."

***

Wuyou Valley is located on the border of Wuzhou. For Fu Xiaoba, leaving Wuzhou means completely leaving his hometown where he has lived for 500 years.

It's just that she thought that she and Qu Linyan should be two people together, eating, drinking, having fun and going to the boundary together, but she never thought that suddenly there was another person beside her, and she wanted to go on the same road with her.

That woman was a demon, she hadn't revealed her true form all the way, and her aura was well hidden, even Qu Linyan couldn't tell which tribe she belonged to.

As for his identity, it was even more mysterious. Apart from saying that his surname was Shen, he did not reveal anything else.

Miss Shen had a very delicate face and a particularly lively temper, and she pulled Fu Xiaoba along to talk and laugh along the way.

When he first met Miss Shen in the morning, Fu Xiaoba felt a little scared in his heart. At the beginning, he heard Qu Linyan say that he would go with him, but he still felt a little conflicted in his heart. Now that we talked together, he forgot everything.

"Xiao Ba, why are you called this name?"

"I'm the eighth shell in my family, so I'm called Xiaoba."

"Then who are you, Fu Zhuochen?"

"Brother."

Miss Shen said "eh" in confusion: "Is he your brother? I thought he was trying so hard to find you, and I thought he..."

"Ah? What do you think of him?" Fu Xiaoba looked bewildered.

"It's nothing." Miss Shen waved her hand, thought for a moment, and then asked curiously, "That's not right, at least he is three thousand years older than you, right?"

"Here, I was picked up by him." Fu Xiaoba said earnestly, "I was the only peacock who opened my mind in Wuyou Valley back then, but I was born lazy, and I hadn't practiced for a hundred years. He couldn't stand it anymore, he took me home with his own hands, recognized me as his younger sister, and urged me to cultivate every day."

"Then why didn't he name you?"

Fu Xiaoba shook his head, and said: "He said, he will take one for me when I cultivate human form, but I have been following Xiao Hei since I cultivated human form, and I haven't seen him yet."

"Since that's the case, you haven't thought about picking a name for yourself?"

Fu Xiaoba got angry when he mentioned this, subconsciously raised his head and gave Qu Linyan a look.

Qu Linyan was walking in the front and leading the way, but she kept listening to the conversation between the two behind her. At this moment, when Miss Shen suddenly asked this question, she turned her head subconsciously, but Fu Xiaoba gave her a hard look. Unable to hold back, he burst out laughing "puchi".

This smile directly annoyed Fu Xiaoba.

The name of the goblin should be taken by relatives after cultivating human form, Fu Zhuochen is not around, she treats Qu Linyan as a relative, but Qu Linyan takes this opportunity to laugh at her that she looks like a pheasant!

Originally, it was all over, but at this moment when others mentioned it, Qu Linyan dared to laugh out loud, it was too much, too much!

If the third person heard that ugly and embarrassing name, she would dig a hole and bury herself, so that Qu Linyan and an outsider would laugh wildly in her ears.

Fu Xiaoba shouted angrily at the top of his voice: "Qu Linyan! You're still laughing!"

Qu Linyan couldn't help being taken aback, how could Fu Xiaoba call her like that?Even if she gets angry and wants to yell at her by name, it is mostly Fu Xiaohei, and it is rare to say "Qu Linyan".

"Angry?" Qu Linyan hurriedly turned around and walked to Fu Xiaoba's side, gently took her hand, and said flatteringly, "I bought some candied fruit in the morning, do you want some?"

Fu Xiaoba rolled his eyes angrily, and said angrily, "No need! No need!"

Qu Linyan hurriedly gave Fu Xiaoba a slap in the face: "It's wrong, it's wrong, don't be angry, the name you gave me is also ugly, I didn't say anything, did I?"

"What's wrong with Xiao Hei? What's wrong with Fu Xiaohe!" Fu Xiaoba said, pushing Qu Linyan dissatisfiedly, but forgot that she had an injury on her arm. She was so frightened that she also trembled, and the little anger in her heart disappeared instantly, and she apologized repeatedly at a loss, "I forgot that you were hurt, Xiao Hei, are you okay, does it hurt? ..."

In fact, it didn't hurt very much, it just hurt when I touched the wound.

But when Qu Linyan saw Fu Xiaoba's silly and anxious appearance for her, he couldn't help but chuckle to himself, and couldn't help but want to tease the little fool more.

"It hurts so much, it hurts to death..." Qu Linyan thought about it, and acted on the spot, "It feels like the wound is opening."

"Ah? No way!" Fu Xiaoba said, reaching out to lift Qu Linyan's sleeve, "I'll show you, let me see...No, the blood didn't flow out..."

"But it hurts so much." Qu Linyan whispered aggrievedly.

"Then what should we do?" Fu Xiaoba asked anxiously.

"Maybe it won't hurt so much if you eat something sweet." Qu Linyan said, "I bought some in the morning."

Fu Xiaoba frowned: "That's not medicine!"

Qu Linyan said: "My heart is sweet, so I don't remember the pain."

"Is that so..." Fu Xiaoba blushed unconsciously when he heard the words, and stretched out his hand to search Qu Linyan's body, "Then, where did you buy it?"

Those dishonest little hands tickled Qu Linyan, while smiling and hiding back, he spread the palm of his left hand, and took out the candied fruit from the spirit pouch.

"Here it is."

Fu Xiaoba quickly took it in his hand, peeled off the paper package, and fed one by one into Qu Lin's cigarette holder.

While feeding, the former asked, "Is it better? Does it still hurt?"

While eating, the latter replied: "It's much better, you can eat too."

The two of them swayed one by one like this, completely forgetting that there was a big living man standing beside him who was confused.

***

From Wuzhou to Fenglu, if you use magic, you can get there in three days at the latest.

But in fact, the three of them didn't even have a horse, and they traveled all the way across the mountains, eating and sleeping in the open, and occasionally passing through the villages to have a good rest.

During the day, they walked slowly, rested and ate when they were tired.In the evening, they just search for a place that can barely shelter from the wind and rain, and spend the night there.

Such a journey, Qu Linyan and Fu Xiaoba also seem to enjoy it, as if they are not purposefully wanting to go somewhere, but wandering around the mountains and rivers aimlessly.

During the time of traveling together, Qu Linyan discovered that the unidentified Miss Shen did have some skills. Fu Zhuochen's spiritual power was astonishingly tyrannical, and he was able to spread the art of searching thousands of miles, several times to the place where they were. But they were all melted away by Miss Shen one by one.

Every time Miss Shen resisted the spirit-searching technique, the spiritual power she used was not ghost power, but a green aura that she had never seen or heard before.

All living beings in the three realms, if they want to cultivate, must absorb the aura of heaven and earth and turn it into their own use.

There are many types of heaven and earth aura, including natural spirits such as wind, thunder, wood, earth, water, fire, and gold, as well as the intolerant forces of light and dark such as sun, splendor and darkness.

In addition, there are some powerful auras that are relatively difficult to cultivate in the world, and ordinary practitioners cannot control them at all.

No matter what kind of spiritual power you cultivate, you need to specialize, otherwise it will easily hurt your body and destroy your spirit.But everything is not so absolute, there are some people who are really gifted, and their physique is so strong that they can practice two kinds of spiritual power at the same time.

Obviously, Miss Shen is such a person.It's just that on weekdays, she never uses that rare spiritual power, and only shows others the power of the ghost, as if she is worried that the power will cause disaster.

There are some things that Miss Shen doesn't say, and Qu Linyan doesn't want to ask, after all, they haven't even revealed their real names to her since they met, so the trust between each other is so cheap.

Fu Xiaoba looks silly on weekdays, but in fact he is just inexperienced in the world and knows little, and his heart is especially transparent when he should be transparent.

Miss Shen is very cheerful, and she will tell her stories, take her to the river to break the ice to fish, and chase rabbits and birds in the forest.

She has a good impression of Miss Shen, but it only stays at the stage of affection, and she has always maintained a more appropriate distance in her heart.Her thinking is similar to that of Qu Linyan, a woman whose identity is a mystery is not worthy of close friendship, but they are on the same road for a while, and they will eventually leave when it is time to leave.

Moreover, she gradually discovered that she actually didn't like the feeling of the three of them.

Every time she sees Miss Shen talking and laughing with Qu Linyan, she feels uncomfortable. She must try every means to make Qu Linyan notice her existence. Among the people, he hugged Qu Linyan's arm sideways, fearing that Qu Linyan would think that Miss Shen was lively, cheerful and beautiful, so he would turn around and abandon her.

But fortunately, such worries did not become a reality. Qu Linyan seemed to see her dissatisfaction, and gradually began to keep a distance from Miss Shen, and made face changing into a unique skill of his own. He could switch between indifference and gentleness in a second.

In the blink of an eye and half a month, the three of them, who had traveled through many landscapes, finally reached the wind road.

On that day, it was the New Year's Eve in the world, and the flying snow in the sky could not cover the joy of every household posting New Year's reds and hanging lanterns.

Children in small padded jackets were playing in the snow on the side of the road. Some were quiet, while others were chasing each other, which was very lively.

Fu Xiaoba saw him passing by, raised his head and tugged on Qu Linyan's sleeve, yelling that he wanted to play together.

Before Qu Linyan could react, he saw Miss Shen dragging Fu Xiaoba towards the children, and couldn't help but get angry.

Good job, Fu Xiaoba, you are not happy when I talk to others on weekdays, and you get together with them every day, and you don't think about my feelings!

Miss Shen bent down with a smile and asked, "Little friend, can you bring your sisters to play?"

The young children had never seen such beautiful two big sisters. They were fascinated by seeing them for a while, and they were stunned for a long time before a little girl blushed and said: "We are making snowmen, they A few are throwing snowballs, big sister, what do you like?"

Miss Shen knelt down in front of the little girl, picked up a handful of snow, and said, "I can do it, how about... Let's build the biggest snowman in the whole street together, shall we?"

"Yeah!" The little girl nodded after hearing this, and the two little girls surrounded her happily.

The voice was soft and waxy, Fu Xiaoba's heart melted when he heard it, he turned around and waved to Qu Linyan, motioning for her to come over.

Heh, I didn't see you pulling me when I came up to you just now, but now I'm told to go, I don't want to lose face?

Besides, how old is it to still play in the snow, it's childish!

Qu Linyan shook his head indifferently, and didn't step forward, just stood with his arms crossed and watched silently with a straight face.

I saw two big girls, a demon and a demon, who looked like ordinary people, put away their spiritual power to protect their bodies, and accompanied three milky human girls to build up the "biggest snowman in the whole street". A child saw it and stepped forward to help.

The snowman's body grew from nothing, and grew bigger and bigger, and soon he was taller than Fu Xiaoba, and when the snowman's head was piled on top, only Fu Xiaoba and Miss Shen could reach it.

"Sister, here it is!"

The short boy and girl picked up clean snow balls from around and handed them to the two sisters on tiptoe, all of them were very happy and excited.

Qu Linyan: "..."

Is it that fun?

Qu Linyan couldn't help but leaned forward a few steps, looking at Fu Xiaoba's little hands that were red from the cold, he was lost in thought for a moment.

Fu Xiaoba turned around and saw Qu Linyan coming, he hurriedly said, "Xiao Hei, come and help!"

Qu Linyan couldn't help being taken aback, someone beside her suddenly tugged at her sleeve, looked down and saw a little girl handing the snow ball to her, and softly called: "Big sister, here you are."

"Thank you...thank you." Qu Linyan couldn't help blushing slightly, reached out to take the snow ball, and slapped the snowman on the forehead.

"Qu Linyan, can you know it! It's crooked!" Miss Shen said, smoothing the sudden snow ball with her hand.

Qu Linyan: "..."

"Xiao Hei, you have to put it where it is flattened." Fu Xiaoba demonstrated at the side, "The back is not done properly, so put it at the back."

Qu Linyan nodded obediently: "Okay."

……

The snowman was finally piled as high as the courtyard gate.

The children fitted it with noses and eyes, used a broom as its left and right hands, and finally put on a scarf and decorated it with paper-cut flowers. It stood tall beside the busy street, and everyone passing by could not help but cast an inch. look.

When they left, the children stood beside the snowman and waved their hands to say goodbye to them. Their hands and faces were flushed with cold, but their eyes were full of joy.

"Xiao Hei, those children are so cute, as cute as you were when you were a child." Fu Xiaoba shook Qu Linyan's hand back and forth.

"When I was young..." Qu Linyan was at a loss for words for a moment.

That memory was simply the biggest dark history in her demon life. If it wasn't for the fact that her size and cultivation were restricted by dreams at that time, Fu Xiaoba, who was originally very afraid of her, would not have become more and more arrogant.

"Yes, you were very cute when you were a child. You were small and chubby, but you had a bad temper!"

Miss Shen heard this, and hurriedly came up to her and asked, "When you were young? How old were you, Xiaoba? When Qu Linyan was a child, you should have not been born yet, right?"

Fu Xiaoba said honestly: "Yes, yes, Xiao Hei used a shuttle to bring me into a dream. In the dream, she looked like a child, and the stove couldn't even reach her!"

When Miss Shen heard it, her gaze changed subtly for a moment, and then she hid everything in her eyes the next second: "So that's how it is."

The dreams of others are easy to enter and difficult to exit, and if you are not careful, you will get lost in it. If the dreamer cannot find the exit before the sleeper wakes up, he will disappear with that dream.

But it is rumored that there is a spiritual treasure in the world, named Dream Weaving Shuttle, holding this shuttle to enter other people's dreams, you will not be afraid of waking up and dying, and will not be backlashed by any dreams.

No wonder, that day when Qu Linyan was fighting with Fu Zhuochen, she was able to escape suddenly. At that time, she was extremely curious, and thought that Qu Linyan had a way to completely hide her body and her spiritual aura, so she followed her curiously until now.

Looking at it now, Qu Linyan at that time should have used the dream-weaving shuttle to hide in the dreams of passers-by.

If he really had this thing in his hand, it would be no wonder that Qu Linyan was able to escape from Qixia Mountain that day.

Seeing that Miss Shen was thinking, Qu Linyan was a little more wary.

When the three of them found an inn to stay in, night had already fallen.

When Xu Shi arrived, every family wanted to have a reunion, and the business of the places that provided accommodation for foreigners seemed to be a bit sluggish.

The shopkeeper gathered a few guys in the store who hadn't returned to their hometown, made rice cakes, wrapped dumplings, invited a few guests, and had a warm New Year's Eve dinner.

It was the first time for Fu Xiaoba to sit at such a lively dinner table, even if it was just simple rice cakes and dumplings, he was very happy.

During the meal, the young cook was still blushing and said to Fu Xiaoba: "Miss Fu, don't look at the quietness outside now, that is, every family is having a New Year's Eve dinner, and later in the evening, there will be fireworks in the city. There will be a lot of people on the street, and the street will be lively, and it can be noisy until midnight."

"That's right, three girls, to watch the fireworks, you must go to the main tower. It's the closest to the display point, where you can see the fireworks most clearly and the sound is the loudest."

"Fireworks? What kind of flowers are those?" Fu Xiaoba looked at Qu Linyan in a daze.

"You'll know when you see it later." Qu Linyan said.

Miss Shen on the side clapped her hands and said, "I know this! Legend has it that there is a goblin called 'Nian', which is more than ten feet long, with a single horn on its head and a mouth full of fangs. It will appear in the world every New Year's Eve, eating People make chaos. Later, some people found that this "Nian" was particularly afraid of red, fire, and loud noises. In order to celebrate the New Year with peace of mind, people hung up red lanterns on New Year's Eve, made fireworks and set them off at night, and finally succeeded. The Nian beast was driven away. Later, the custom of pasting the New Year's red, hanging lanterns, lighting fireworks, and setting off firecrackers was passed down year after year."

"It's so interesting!"

"En!" Miss Shen nodded, turned to look at the sky outside the window, and said longingly, "It is said that fireworks are like night clouds blooming in the sky, they only bloom for a moment, but they are beautiful and eye-catching."

"Have you seen it?" Fu Xiaoba asked.

Miss Shen shook her head: "We don't have these customs there."

"That's right." Fu Xiaoba nodded, then looked at Qu Linyan again, "Have you seen Xiao Hei?"

"I've seen it before, that's all." Qu Linyan said lightly.

She has seen fireworks in the world by chance a few times, not to mention the noise, the auras of monsters with higher cultivation bases when fighting are more brilliant than those things, it's really nothing to see.

"Then will you accompany me to see it later?" Fu Xiaoba said.

"I'll accompany you to see it." Miss Shen said, "Qu Linyan is obviously not interested in that thing."

"Who said that..." Qu Linyan got a little anxious, reached out and pulled Fu Xiaoba's sleeve, "I'll accompany you."

Fu Xiaoba nodded happily.

After dinner, Fu Xiaoba held Qu Linyan's hand and bounced up the street.

Miss Shen was following along at the side, keeping a distance that was neither too close nor too far away, but she was attracted by other places, so she turned around and walked around by herself, instead of following the sticky two people to ask for help. no fun.

The two walked for a long time, and finally chose a quieter river bank to sit down.

Fu Xiaoba looked at the main tower standing tall on the other side of the river, while waiting for the fireworks, he hummed an unknown song.

It's just that the tune sounds like it's out of tune, and it's dry, which really hurts the ears.

Qu Linyan couldn't hold back, and said what was in his heart: "What are you singing, it's so ugly."

"Hum, hum, and no one has taught me!" Fu Xiaoba glared at Qu Linyan, "You sing beautifully, sing one for me!"

Qu Linyan pursed his lips: "I will sing if you ask me to?"

Fu Xiaoba let out a "hum", pouted his nose and said, "You just don't know how to do it!"

Qu Linyan took a look at Fu Xiaoba, feeling a little uneasy on his face, remained silent for a few seconds, and finally opened his mouth.

"Underworld fire guides soul crossing

A long history and a long dream

……

People say love and hate in this world are longer than the sky

long but forgotten

……

River bank willow

old lane long street

Setting sun and evening wind gusts of coolness

……

but it looks like old”

"What are you singing, it's miserable..." Fu Xiaoba muttered in a low voice.

Qu Linyan heard it, and said dissatisfied: "You don't have to listen!"

"Can't you change the song?"

"I only know this song." Qu Linyan said, "That's it, my friend sat alone on the edge of the cliff and sang quietly, and I was forced to listen to it."

Fu Xiaoba couldn't help being curious: "Is there something sad about your friend?"

"..." Qu Linyan thought for a while, then hugged his knees and nodded, "Yes, my friend, she..."

Before the words fell, there was a loud noise not far away.

She raised her eyes, only to see fireworks lit up across the river bank.

"Wow! Xiao Hei, look!" Fu Xiaoba excitedly grabbed Qu Linyan's arm, shook it vigorously and shouted, "Look, look!"

"I saw it, I saw it..."

"So beautiful!"

The ear-shattering sound that had disgusted her before was suppressed by Fu Xiaoba's noisy yelling, but Qu Linyan didn't feel annoyed at all.

Qu Linyan stared blankly at the bunches of fireworks blooming in the sky, and felt that they were slightly different from what he had seen before—it seemed that they looked much better than before.

Fu Xiaoba looked up at the sky with his neck up, stared at the sky for a long time, and couldn't help saying: "Brother is right..."

"What?" Qu Linyan turned to look at Fu Xiaoba.

The gorgeous light reflected in those beautiful phoenix eyes, and the delicate and clean little face was brightly and darkly illuminated by the flickering fireworks, which was a bit sultry.

"There's nothing good about being a god. No wonder a goblin cultivates human beings first in cultivating the Tao. The world is so good. A few tens of days are better than a hundred years in the mountains." Fu Xiaoba blinked slowly, and said with emotion, "If you really live by the catastrophe, Wouldn't it be worthless to die in response to a catastrophe?"

"Do you like this place?" Qu Linyan asked.

Fu Xiaoba nodded: "I like it."

"Then...would you like to go back with me?" Qu Linyan asked again.

Fu Xiaoba continued to nod: "Of course!"

Qu Linyan hesitated for a moment, and said, "Since you like the world, why don't you stay?"

"Xiao Hei, will you stay?" Fu Xiaoba turned to look at Qu Linyan.

Qu Linyan was stunned for a moment, and replied: "I have to go back."

"You're not here, so what am I going to do here?" Fu Xiaoba said, looking up at the sky again, "Xiao Hei, just now Xiao Er said that most of the years in the world are spent with family!"

"Did you spend time with your family..."

"That's right!" Fu Xiaoba said earnestly, "This is the first year I've lived in the world, and I spent it with you! From now on... we'll be considered family members, right?"

Something seemed to tug at his heartstrings, Qu Linyan couldn't help but froze in place.

The fireworks on the other side were still there, but she quietly stared at the girl in front of her amidst the noise, her vision was unconsciously blurred by a layer of water mist.
