Qinghe fights for the deer

Immortal Xuanjing led the crowd to walk with the sword, and after half a day, he came to the top of Ningzhou, and he saw faint traces of black air rising from Ningzhou.Master Xuan Jing felt ominous, and asked all the disciples to be careful.All the disciples answered "yes", only Xiqing didn't hear it at all, and stared at the city and village below.

"Ahem." Xishu coughed twice, then pinched Xiqing who was behind her.

The fifth level of Daozong can forge the magic weapon to fly the sword. Although Xiqing is the fifth level of Taoism, he is a newcomer. Before he can find the magic weapon that suits him in the future, he asks the fourth senior sister Xishu to take him for a ride with the magic weapon banana fan.The plantain fan has a large surface, and it is much more comfortable to stand on than the short sword of the senior sister and the flute of the sixth senior sister.

Xi Qing came back to her senses, and smiled mischievously at Master Xuan Jing:

"Yes! Please obey Master's decree!"

The expression is agile, delicate and cute.

Master Xuanjing turned his head to meet him, and his anger dissipated all of a sudden, he gave Xiqing a reproachful look, and said no more.

After flying for another quarter of an hour, the black air suddenly became thicker, and Master Xuanjing ordered his disciples to land and investigate.

The place where it landed was a desolate mountain, and the thick black air seen in the sky could not be seen after landing.Birds and insects are singing all around, and the vegetation is thriving, nothing different.

Master Xuan Jing was even more disturbed, and reminded all the disciples to be careful with a serious expression.Seeing this strange situation, Xiqing didn't dare to be careless, and followed behind all the senior sisters intently.

After walking for half an hour, I finally saw a village in the distance.Immortal Xuanjing led his disciples to the village.

After a cup of tea, I finally came to the entrance of the village.On the old archway, there are three words "Lijia Village".There was silence in the village, completely different from the calm along the way.Everyone walked into the village slowly, not daring to ask people loudly, so the eldest sister Xiping knocked on the door of the first house at the head of the village.After knocking for a while, there was no response, Xishu went to another house to knock on the door, and there was no answer after knocking for a long time, everyone felt even more weird.

Xi Qing said: "Master, this village is not big, why don't we go around the whole village to see if there are any villagers."

Master Xuanjing nodded, and said, "Xiping, Xishu, come back, let's go forward."

Xiping and Xishu returned to the real person Xuanjing, and everyone continued to move forward cautiously.I turned around the village, but I didn't see a single person.Master Xuan Jing ordered everyone to rest temporarily by a well.

Master Xuanjing asked: "Disciples, this village is weird, what do you think?"

After many years of practicing on Lingyun Peak and staying away from the world, everyone has never seen this situation, and the eight senior sisters shook their heads.

Xiqing wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, fanned the wind with his hands, and said: "Master, the sky above this area is full of black air, but after coming down, there is no trace of it. Birds are singing and flowers are fragrant outside the village, but the village is dead silent. It is indeed very strange. But every household in the village has its doors and windows closed, and the roads are very clean, but it doesn’t look like there are robbers or demons invading.”

"Yes, if there are robbers or monsters, the villagers will definitely resist, and the streets must already be in chaos." Xishu continued.

"But the village is so quiet that there is no living thing. Where have all these people and domestic animals gone?" Xiping asked.

Master Xuan Jing frowned, unable to think of the reason for a while.

Sixth Senior Sister Xizhao was also very hot, she stood up and said, "It's too hot after walking for half a day. There is a well here, why don't we get some water to drink." The water purification talisman purified the water first, and then scooped up a ladle of water with a ladle, and handed it to Master Xuanjing first.

Master Xuanjing walked all the way, and kept holding his heart, feeling a little thirsty, and was about to take it, but Xiqing yelled: "Wait a minute, Master!"

Master Xuan Jing looked at her and said, "What's wrong?"

Xiqing took the ladle from Xizhao's hand, and said, "There is no one in this village, but everything is neat and orderly. Does it seem like the villagers left by themselves?"

"Leave by yourself? You mean to move the village?" Xishu asked.

"Even if we move to the village, it's impossible to leave without taking anything." Xiping glanced at a low house next to him, and through the fenced yard, he could clearly see that there were several farm tools at the door.

"This is the strange thing." Xi Qing said, "The living things in the whole village have disappeared, but the things are still in place. It seems that they walked very calmly, not like a temporary escape. Does it look like... "

"Like what?" Daoist Xuan Jing asked.

"It seems that they were summoned by something in their sleep, and they left here together."

"You mean, demons can manipulate people's dreams?"

"But do those livestock and poultry also have dreams? Besides, don't dogs stay up in the middle of the night?" Xi Shu, the fourth senior sister, asked.

"No, they, not just humans, all living things must have fallen asleep that night." Xiqing said looking at the clean and clear water in the ladle.

"Is there a problem in the water?" Xizhao asked, "But when I used the water purification talisman to purify the water just now, there was no problem!"

Xiqing shook her head and said, "The water on the mountain outside the village should belong to the same water source as the water in the well. It's so weird inside the village, but everything outside the village is normal, which means the problem is not with the water."

"Why is that?" Master Xuan Jing also asked.

"To make all living creatures fall asleep at the same time, they must eat the same thing. This thing can't be anything else, it must be the water in the well. But there is no problem with the water, the problem must be in the container." As soon as the words fell, Xiqing smashed the water ladle down hard.

With a sound of "boom", the water scoop shattered into pieces.A small piece of black metal fell out of it, and as soon as it landed, it flew into the air as if alive.

"Hey!" Master Xuan Jing flew up from his seat in an instant, pinching the black metal piece that was already in midair in the blink of an eye.The black metal piece was still vibrating, and wanting to escape, Master Xuanjing cast a immobilization talisman, and the black metal piece stopped vibrating immediately.

"It's so dangerous, I almost caught fire!" Sixth Senior Sister Xizhao said anxiously.

"Fortunately, there is Xiqing, this village is very weird, don't touch anything." Fourth Senior Sister Xishu said.

Master Xuan Jing looked at the black metal piece, frowned and put it in his sleeve, saying: "This is indeed a monster. It is so terrifying that it can control all living things in a village with just such a small size. We Find the villagers as soon as possible, and then see if there are such monsters in other places."

"Yes!" The nine disciples responded in unison.

"There are hundreds of villages like this in the southwest of Ningzhou. We have to speed up and divide our troops into five groups. Xiping, Xijin, Xishu, and Xizhao each take one person to investigate in different directions. Xiqing, you and me are teachers. Together."

"Ah?" Xiqing looked astonished, and she would be exhausted if she followed Master all the way, so she hurriedly said, "Master, I think you should take Eighth Senior Sister with you."

"I brought Xi Ji? Why?"

Xiqing smiled flatteringly and said, "I know that Master is worried that my cultivation level is not enough, and that I will suffer from the demons. However, the eighth senior sister has always been timid. When I first entered the village, I found that her legs were trembling with fright. Without your old man reassuring her, she might have returned to Sixiangtang with Yujian."

"Xiao Jiu, why do you say that about Senior Sister?"

The Eighth Senior Sister Xi Ji shrank beside Master Xuan Jing, while trying to pretend not to be afraid, she said, "I'm not trembling, I'm not afraid at all."

"That's good, since Senior Sister Eight is so courageous, why don't you go in a different direction?" Xi Qing teased.

"Then... that's unnecessary..." Xi Ji shrank immediately.

Master Xuanjing looked at Xiji, and said helplessly, "Forget it, Xiji, you can follow me! Xiqing, you can follow Xishu, and be careful in everything."

"Yes! I obey the master's order!" Xiqing happily jumped on the banana fan of the fourth senior sister Xishu, said playfully, "Goodbye, master, and the apprentice will leave first", and disappeared into the sky with Xishu's banana fan.

Master Xuan Jing shook his head: "The dignified appearance two days ago is indeed deceiving."
