When the devil

That night, Wei Ling had a dream.

Dreamed that he had returned to the Cangming Temple where the snow was falling heavily.

He called Xia Zhou's name, but the naughty kitten did not appear.

He was walking in the snow, but he still couldn't exert his strength.

The kitten is gone.

He was so sad that he couldn't cry.

He stopped in front of the gate of Yaoyu, quietly looking at the tall gate.

"If you want to leave the world, take me with you."

He yelled at the closed door.

But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't make a sound.

The self in the dream was so sad, so lonely, yet so calm and indifferent.

When he opened his eyes again, he was lying in his room, his mind was in a daze, and his body smelled of alcohol.

He felt that his body was heavy, and when he looked down, he saw the kitten curled up and pressed against his chest.

"Xiazhou." He called the name, grabbed the cat's tail casually.

The kitten shivered all over, its fur exploded, its eyes widened, followed by a billow of black smoke, instantly covering Wei Ling's sight.

"...?"

Wei Ling didn't understand what was going on, and suddenly a grown man was pressed down from above, his warm chest pressed against him, and his hair also fell down on his body.

"you…!"

Wei Ling woke up immediately, and was about to make a move, but the other party grabbed her wrist first, and pressed her firmly on the couch.

"Who taught you to talk nonsense about the cat's tail?" Xia Zhou took advantage of Wei Ling's struggle and tucked one leg between Wei Ling's legs.

Wei Ling didn't want to compete with him in brute force, and of course he couldn't beat the big monster, but his current posture made him panic, and he only wanted Xia Zhou to go down quickly: "I was wrong, I apologize, let me go."

Xia Zhou didn't let him go, and buried his head in his neck, teasingly in a deep voice: "Yesterday you practiced the sword so cutely, next time you drink like that again, I will never—"

Although Wei Ling doesn't follow the rules of practitioners, he is very good at quitting the word desire.Now there is a big monster on his body who is dawdling and teasing him, Tianyu Immortal Venerable, who has never been touched before, was dazzled by fright, and almost lost his breath.

"...Xia Zhou, get up!"

"?!"

The hand that was holding him was suddenly released, and Xia Zhou, who was immersed in harassment, was given a certain amount by the power of the name, and his whole body was so weak that Xia Zhou had to back away a little. Wei Ling took the opportunity to turn over and raised his feet towards him Belly kicked.

Xia Zhou didn't expect it at all, Wei Ling shot quickly and urgently, he was already close in the blink of an eye, Xia Zhou had no choice but to let go of him and jumped off the couch.

"It's not a girl's house, why are you shy?"

Xia Zhou was so aggrieved, his eyes were filled with mischievous luster without concealing it, but it was not important, the most important thing was that he was completely naked, he was wearing nothing, and that thing was still very energetic.

Wei Ling tidied up the scattered clothes, at least able to cover her chest: "You and I are both men, please respect yourself."

Xia Zhou giggled and said, "If you're a woman, you'd have to say that men and women can't kiss each other. Gender doesn't matter, as long as it's fun."

Wei Ling's face remained flushed, she didn't seem shy, but sullen.

He was very drunk last night, and he didn't know how he came back. Xia Zhou obviously didn't know how to take care of the drunk, as long as he smelled bad all over, Wei Ling only took off his coat. The worst part was that he That long black hair was braided by Xia Zhou!Uneven scattered around the shoulders.

"The water for bathing has been prepared. It's behind the screen in the back room." Xia Zhou looked at him and said leisurely. He was used to seeing Wei Ling's icy appearance on weekdays. It would be a pleasure to see him flustered occasionally.

So he continued to stare at Wei Ling's stiff handsome face, seeing that he was still, and said nicely, "I'll ask your apprentice to prepare the clothes for you in advance, too."

It’s rare for a cat to be thoughtful, but Wei Ling has no mood to praise. He was worrying about the braids on his hair, and he couldn’t take them off for a long time, so he could only say in annoyed voice, “Thank you.”

Xia Zhou said brazenly: "How about we wash together."

"No need."

"Your Majesty Wei still cares about his body like jade at a young age. If he dies one day, wouldn't his life be in vain?"

Wei Ling finally got his hair cut, and complained with a small face that he was so handsome and cute, no matter how much he loved to talk to Xia Zhou on weekdays, but whenever he was molested, his mind went blank and he couldn't find a word to explain it back.

Xia Zhou clicked his tongue twice, and was delighted to see his appearance again: "Are you afraid of looking at my body? For you I can become a kitten."

After speaking, there was a burst of mist, and Xia Zhou jumped up in the form of a kitten, and jumped into Wei Ling's arms very consciously.

Wei Ling looked at the cat in her arms quietly, then carried him to the window step by step, and threw the cat out decisively and ruthlessly.

……

Although the skies have been clear these past few days, the temperature has turned cold day by day.

The cold dew has just passed, and the frost is coming.In the early morning, frost condensed among the grass and trees, and there was a thin mist lingering around.

It is said that cats are very clean creatures, and so is Xia Zhou.

Even though he was ruthlessly thrown out of the house by Wei Ling, when Wei Ling washed away the smell of alcohol and came out, Xia Zhou didn't know where to solve the problem of taking a bath, and he was dressed in a slim brocade robe with fluttering long hair, very romantic and suave .

"Master!" As soon as Mochi saw Wei Ling, he jumped off the roof, handed over a sweet potato, and said with concern: "I have already asked what you asked me to ask."

Wei Ling took the sweet potato and held it in her hand to keep warm: "How?"

Mochi said: "Qianguling...was taken away by Fengyue Tianshi, Master Chen Xiao." After speaking, he quickly added: "But I don't think he did it."

Wei Ling thought for a while: "Besides the Thousand Bone Bell, are there other ringtones that can incite monsters?"

Mochi shook his head: "Elder Meng said no, Qianguling is the only one."

Wei Ling frowned slightly.

Mochi's face was full of worry, and he asked with little confidence: "Could it be that he is really Fengyue Tianshi?"

Wei Ling said: "Chen Xiao has a very arrogant personality, unlike his style."

But who would it be that could snatch Qianguling from Chen Xiao?

Chen Xiao's cultivation was extremely high, if the Qiangu Bell was in his hands, no one else would be able to touch it, but now the bell appeared in Liuli City, inciting monsters all the time.

When Wei Ling was thinking about the problem, Mochi kept tilting his head to look at him, and when Wei Ling noticed his gaze, he said carefully: "Master, what happened to you yesterday, I think Pavilion Master Xia is behind your back Come back, won't you be injured?"

Wei Ling didn't want to think about that scene, so she hurriedly laughed: "I drank too much, it's okay."

Mo Chi muttered: "Master is drinking again!"

"Your master drank the first level of the five-level sword spirit, isn't it amazing?" Xia Zhou naturally took the sweet potato from Wei Ling's hand, broke it in half, and returned half of it to Wei Ling.

Wei Ling looked at the sweet potato that was only half in his hand, and then at Xia Zhou, his expression changed from bewildered to dissatisfied.

Mochi's black eyes were wide open, and he said excitedly, "So powerful!? As expected of Master! Teach me!"

Xia Zhou slowly pushed him away from Wei Ling: "Your master realized it by himself, don't you want to try to comprehend it yourself? You can't make progress if you rely on others, understand?"

Mochi blinked, then blinked again, suddenly said: "It makes sense!"

He is definitely the most active person that Xia Zhou has ever seen. Before the sound of the reasonable word "Li" fell, he disappeared in the direction of the cellar in high spirits.

Wei Ling took a bite of the sweet potato and said, "You bully my apprentice all day long, don't bully him too much."

Xia Zhou chuckled, "You only lie to him if you like him, and you don't..."

"I lied to you not because I like you." Wei Ling immediately interrupted the words, "It's annoying."

Xia Zhou shook his head helplessly: "A Ling, you really show no mercy to me."

In fact, if you ask yourself, the image of Xia Zhou in Wei Ling's heart can be summed up as: fart, naive, thick-skinned, and a little moody. If it weren't for that face, he would have become a big villain in Wei Ling's heart.

But apart from him, Wei Ling likes everything in Shuiyue Pavilion very much. When he first came, he disliked his disciples, who are good and bad, but after observing them these days, they feel that they live a very real life, and it is inevitable that they will be affected after getting along for a long time.

So, this morning, on a whim, he went to watch his disciples practice martial arts. The disciples shouted to see Wei Ling's demonstration, so he lifted up the bamboo pole to move his shins. Bamboo poles, all gathered together to watch the fun.

Why do we say "to play with", because other people see the bamboo pole as a toy in Wei Ling's hands. He moves lightly, but his moves are powerful. A bamboo pole is played by him like a snake or a wave, as if hallucinating, standing still Sometimes it is straight again, not as soft as it is when it moves.

Finally, he put it away, and the bamboo pole spun several times in his hand, and stood with his hands behind his back.

Immediately, there were exclamations from around, and every sentence lamented Wei Ling's skill, and the children couldn't help reaching out to touch the bamboo pole to see if the bamboo pole could be folded into a wave shape.

Xia Zhou thought to himself, this is just a small test of skill, the sword dance last night was the best in the world, if he killed Cheng Yingjie, he would be the only one who had seen it.

Thinking of it this way, there was some killing intent in my heart.

It can be said that Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived, and a disciple outside the door reported that Cheng Yingjie had come to Shuiyue Pavilion and had important matters to discuss with Wei Ling.

As soon as they met, all the greetings were omitted, Cheng Yingjie looked solemn, and said, "Two major events happened last night. One is that a Taoist temple in the southwest was completely destroyed, and the other is that many people died in the inn outside the city."

Wei Ling asked, "Is it all evil?"

Cheng Yingjie nodded, and said again: "No... I didn't go to the Taoist temple, so I can't tell. But the post station was man-made, and a caravan going to Guo's house was killed... People were cut by steel wires, it was terrible."

"Steel wire?" Wei Ling wondered, "How do you judge?"

Cheng Yingjie: "Someone pretended to be dead in the pile of corpses and got a life back. They said that the assailant's method was extremely cruel...Strangling people with a steel wire is easier than mowing the grass...It's just that the sky is too dark to see the other person's appearance and body shape clearly. It can be seen that... it should be a young man."

juvenile……?

Wei Ling turned over in her mind, never had such a character in her memory

Wei Ling said: "Then, let me go to the Taoist temple."

The so-called no matter not going to the Three Treasures Hall, Cheng Yingjie clearly wanted Wei Ling to help, and Wei Ling had this intention, and the matter hit it off, and he immediately took action.

But since Wei Ling was going, Xia Zhou followed very consciously. When he left, Wei Ling brought Mochi with him. It should be said that Mochi chased Cheng Yingjie out of the cellar after hearing Cheng Yingjie's name, but Cheng Yingjie had already left by then. , he was heartbroken, and decided to join the team going to the Taoist temple, to help the uncle who was seeing the dragon and seeing the end.

The Taoist temple is hidden on an unknown hill outside Liuli City. The winding stone steps lead to the depths, guarded by an enchantment. As soon as you walk through the enchantment, you can smell a strong smell of blood. dead body.

Xia Zhou walked in front, rummaged through the corpse, pulled out a sword and handed it to Wei Ling: "Your mana hasn't recovered yet, take it with you."

Wei Ling said "Hum", looking down at the sword body carefully with downcast eyes. The word "Zhenlu" was engraved on the scabbard. Only then did I know that the Taoist temple in Shannai was actually the largest Taoist gate outside Liuli City - Zhenlu Temple.
