"We slept soundly at first, but when I woke up, I saw a figure passing by the window, and when I looked under the quilt, there was nothing."

He was sobbing at first, but he stopped crying after he finished speaking. He probably felt that he couldn't cry any more. He clenched his fists and said, "I didn't like my brother, I want to bring him back."

"Someone took Ayi away."

"What did he take Ayi for?"

"Ayi is still so young that he can't walk yet."

Xie Minxing listened to Diudiu's upside-down narration, but just thought about it coldly. Seeing that he was silent, Pei Zijun pressed his hand, feeling cold in his hand, and said, "Don't think wildly, it will be fine. A Yi will be fine. of."

Xie Minxing looked up, and suddenly remembered the pair of eyes hidden in the crabapple tree. He always felt that he was worrying too much, but he never thought that one day the nightmare would come true.

"It's him." He thought calmly.

"Who?"

"Yuanqing."

Pei Zijun looked at the letter paper scattered in the quilt, and his expression was very ugly, but Xie Minxing's expression was even more ugly, "You still remember when we parted at Yumenguan, he said he would come back to take my child away, and now he really came."

Pei Zijun stared at the signature of the dragon and phoenix in the lower right corner, and a bloody gash was cut in his heart. Those blind jealousy and hatred almost overwhelmed his mind. He thought, why is it this person again?Why is this person always haunted?

Mr. Pei Qi, who has always had the best temper, would never have thought that because of certain people and certain things, he would have the evil spirit of killing Buddhas when meeting Buddhas and killing gods when meeting gods.

He picked up the letter paper, besides the blinding name left by Master Yuan, there was also this sentence, "A beauty in the mirror is a castle in the air."

What does it mean?Is the leader of Yuanda revealing Ayi's whereabouts, or is he deliberately entertaining them?

Since the meeting at Yumen Pass last year, Yuan Qing has not shown his face in the arena again. If he hadn't known Yuan Qing's ambition and temperament, he would have thought that the leader of the sect was going to hatch on Beiman Mountain. What about the egg, but this time I came to Luojing, really just to take away a little baby?Or show off his good handwriting?

The beauty in the mirror is either herself or herself, a castle in the air, you can see it but you can't touch it, these two lines of poems describe the realm of nothingness, Xie Minxing pondered for a while, the piece of paper suddenly touched the tip of his nose, a familiar and yet A strong smell hits your face?

Medicine smell?

The two men made eye contact and thought of this at the same time.

"To be precise, it is the medicine prepared by Baicaotang."

Pei Zijun spoke out first.

Yuan Qing was alluding to the matter of Baicaotang.

That person must be in Luojing City, but Luojing City is so big, hiding a person is like falling into the soft cotton pile like a needle, how can you find it?

Fortunately, Yuanqing is a needle.

He couldn't help thinking.

As long as you get close, you will prick other people's needles. No matter how well you hide, you can't help but jump out and prick people.

That night, although the two of them were in the same bed, neither of them fell asleep.

Xie Minxing thought about the experience of the past year, the ups and downs, half his life has passed, from the tragic death of Tang Feng and his wife and the loss of their parents, to the disappearance of the senior sister, and to the recent tragedy of this martial arts master, it seems that there is a pair of invisible hands, pushing These irrelevant events.He has encountered so many bad things, even his heart, which has been scratched by the wind and snow all year round, has been softened by the fireworks in the world of mortals. He knows that the seven emotions and six desires cannot be loved, and he also knows that there are regrets in life.

"Let's go to Baicao Hall tomorrow." Xie Minxing said suddenly in the dark.

The young man on the opposite side closed his eyes, as if he was too lazy to agree, he only snorted in a nasal voice, and after a while, he came to pull his outer hand again, pulled him into the bed, and clasped it firmly with five fingers.

He didn't know why the young man liked to hold his hand so stubbornly.

When he is in danger, when he is misunderstood, when he wants to give up.

Now he thinks he might know.

The fingers wrapped around his hands were long and warm, telling him, "I am here".

Since the incident of the crazy boy, not only Baicaotang, but also many pharmacies in Luojing City have been greatly affected. They either closed their doors or went out of business, or took advantage of this off-season to renovate.

The two stood at the door of Baicao Hall to watch again.

This is really an unusual shop, but it reveals incongruity everywhere.

"Castle in the air..." These words lingered on the tip of Pei Zijun's tongue, "Brother Xie, don't you think it's built higher than other adjacent shops, which is a bit wasteful?"

Even though they are all attics on the second floor, the shops in Baicaotang are half a floor higher than other shops, but they have been to the attics on the second floor, but they still feel very narrow and dark, so where did the extra space go? Woolen cloth?

"There is an interlayer." Xie Minxing understood.

The castle in the air is not a realm of nothingness, but is hidden.

On this day, all the clerks and waiters in Baicaotang were busy cleaning and moving herbs. Such an ominous incident happened to this shop, and there was no way for it to continue operating. They had already found another prosperous shop. After moving this time , it's closing down here.

Therefore, no one noticed that two young men and a young boy stood at the stairs on the second floor, and they pulled the mechanism exposed behind the wooden door of the entrance.

In an instant, the attic turned upside down.

The original floor rose rapidly, revealing the castle in the sky hidden in the darkness.

Pei Zijun finally smelled that damp and cold southern border smell again. This time, he finally remembered that it wasn't moisture, but... the smell of Gu.

The attic was dark, so they lit the kerosene lamp on the desk, and on the hanging yellow cloth strips were written talismans they could not understand in cinnabar, and Pei Zijun recalled that the desk was that day. The place where the mysterious witch doctor received him and predicted that Ayi would "destroy his soul".

Although he remembered it, because he didn't tell Xie Minxing about it, he silently continued to walk deep with them.

Suddenly, Tang Buqi felt something crawling up from his back, burrowing into his neck in his robe, feeling soft and cold to the touch, he was frightened, and hurriedly pulled Brother Xie beside him.

Xie Minxing grabbed the thing and looked under the oil lamp, it was a snow-white Gu worm.

No, this is so wrong.

The weak candle light slowly illuminated the empty room. When they looked up, they found that it was not an empty room. Gu insects were crawling everywhere on the walls, between the cracks in the door, and on the beams. They might be dormant. , or squirming.

Birth, old age, sickness and death, endless life.

This castle in the air was born to raise Gu worms.

This is the reason why the children who came to Baicaotang went crazy. Those children did not go crazy after drinking the medicine, but because the Gu worms upstairs were not very tightly sealed in the pavilion. The gaps in the walls and floors came out, and there happened to be a kind of Gu worm among them that could make children lose their minds. They got into the bodies of unconscious children... Who would have thought that the top floor of this medicine hall for curing diseases and saving lives would actually be a dangerous place? The original place of Gu worms of human life.

The people downstairs are saving lives, but the bugs upstairs are killing people.

Xie Minxing sighed, but suddenly found that Tang Buqi had left his shelter, walking like a corner of an attic.

It was only then that he discovered that there was a long row of glass vessels in the corner, and the yellow liquid soaked in them turned out to be human hearts... Judging by the number of glass vessels, there may be hundreds of hearts.

Each vessel is stamped with the person's name.

Of those people, some he only heard of by name, some he had seen before, some died in the massacre of the Houchao Sword Sect, some died in the Xu family massacre he witnessed with his own eyes, and some died in obscurity on a certain day inside.

Some of them were once famous.

If they survived, they might become famous all over the world without a name.

But if there is no if, their beating hearts have become parasites of Gu insects.

Tang Buqi finally found the heart he was looking for in a pile of hearts.

He looked at the heart in the transparent container, and finally broke down in tears.

That is Tang Feng's heart.

Tang Feng always came in the middle of the night and left in a hurry.

Every time, he was brought many novelty gadgets, and he couldn’t keep his eyes open, and he was reluctant to take his eyes away from those novelty gadgets. He never thought of taking a second look at the person who brought these things to him.

He called him Uncle Afeng all his life. When he grew up and became sensible, when he wanted to call him Daddy, he couldn't hear him anymore.
