Green scales

Afterwards, Yuqin took the lunch box back, Xia Xinglan didn't ask any questions, but just ate dinner with Yuqin, after that, the two of them took a shower and went to bed early.

The coldness like tarsus maggots swept over again, and the night crow stopped on the treetops and made a low chirp, which was especially terrifying in the night when the shadows of the trees were mottled.

The night wind suddenly picked up, and a black shadow swept across the night sky.

"Gah—" the Jackdaw suddenly flapped its wings and let out a sharp, strange cry.

Yuqin woke up from the dream again, the heart in the chest was beating endlessly as if it was about to burst.In just a moment, he was already in a cold sweat.

"Xinglan..." Yuqin's eyes were darkened, her head was swollen with pain, and she subconsciously searched for the warm body beside her, but found nothing again.

No one was there, and there was residual warmth on the bedding, presumably because he had just left.

Yuqin took a deep breath, raised her hand and rubbed her forehead to relieve the swelling pain, but it didn't do much.

"Xia Xinglan..." Yuqin murmured, sat in the dark for a while, then turned sideways and crawled on the side where Xia Xinglan had been lying on, the familiar breath wrapped him up again, his heartbeat gradually calmed down, and his forehead The pain is no longer there.

Yuqin hugged Xia Xinglan's pillow in his arms with nostalgia, like a person on the edge of a cliff clinging to that piece of wood, it was his life-saving medicine.

He didn't dare to imagine that Xia Xinglan would abandon him and leave. To him, that would be like cutting off the branch on the edge of the cliff, and it would be enough to break him to pieces.

Yuqin took a deep breath, turned over and got out of bed, put on her clothes casually, and went out without caring about her messy blue hair.He just wanted to find Xia Xinglan as soon as possible.

It was already midnight, and there was no sound in the inn.However, the flickering lanterns on Yu's aisle swayed slightly, casting patches of light and shadow.Yuqin walked in the corridor, and the creaking sound of the wooden boards was infinitely amplified at night, and every step was accompanied by sharp and piercing strange sounds.

The yin and cold spread down the corridor as if it had substance, and it was stained with Yuqin's slightly damp hair, which immediately turned into hoarfrost.Yuqin paused and turned around slowly.

The hallway was empty.

Yuqin took a few steps back suspiciously, everything was as usual.Yuqin squinted her eyes, then turned and went down the stairs.

In the lobby, only the shop waiter who was taking customers during the day was dozing off at the counter, his head was shaking.Yuqin didn't even think about it, she went straight up and knocked on the counter, Xiaoer opened her eyes in a daze, and said vaguely, "What's the matter, guest officer?"

"Did you see the man who came with me during the day?"

Xiao Er hissed, rubbed his head and thought for a while, and said: "Ah, I know, he told me just now that if you come to him, young master, just say that he has gone out to buy buns, so you can rest assured." He yawned and leaned back on the counter again, "Where did you get the buns in the middle of the night?"

I never let him go shopping, and there was only one thing that could make Xia Xinglan leave without saying hello.

"Did he go away with a sword?"

"Yes, he's still dressed in disarray. I saw that the guest officer had a serious expression on his face, and hurried out with a sword in his hand."

Are there demons in this city?

Yuqin showed hesitation, waved his hands and stopped talking. Seeing Yuqin pondering, Xiao Er began to doze off on his own.Xia Xinglan hasn't come back after so long, I'm afraid... the situation is a little tricky.

Yuqin didn't dare to think too much, and rushed out the door.A few red lanterns on the street reflected a miserable red light, and there was no one on the road. Yuqin looked at the lanterns shaking with the wind with a solemn expression.

Suddenly, a drop of water fell on his forehead, and Ye Yu's chill pierced straight into his body like a sharp knife.Yuqin shuddered, and raised his hand to wipe the water from his forehead.Immediately, the sound of pattering water came, and the rain suddenly intensified, and it didn't take long to wet his forehead and shoulders.

An inexplicable strangeness spread from the bottom of his heart, Yuqin hurried back to the house to get an umbrella, and just as he went down the stairs, a figure suddenly jumped out from the side.

"Why is the young master still hanging out in the middle of the night?" The disgusting voice sounded, and Yuqin frowned and saw that it was the eldest among the few disciples during the day.

Yuqin didn't have time to think about why he didn't get the trick, but just glanced at him coldly, then turned sideways to avoid, and continued to walk forward.

But the man followed up reluctantly, stepped forward to block Yuqin's path, and said with a smile, "Where are you going, young master? It's a quiet night and it's not safe to be alone. Why don't I accompany you?" go."

I woke up in the middle of the night and wanted to relieve myself, but accidentally came across a piece of sweet pastry.Thinking of this, the middle-aged man felt a little annoyed. Those two idiots couldn't do anything well, and they could even take the wrong medicine. Fortunately, he was only focused on drinking at that time.

However, it was also a good time that they were not here, and he should be able to bear the blessing.

The man chuckled, with a hint of lust in his eyes.

Yuqin didn't like this man's gaze very much, and glanced at him in disgust, and was too lazy to talk to him, so she walked around again and wanted to leave.

The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, and the rainwater on the tile eaves was rushing down along the gutters. Under the light, a very light layer of mist formed on the ground, flowing slowly like life.

Yuqin didn't realize that now he was only focused on Xia Xinglan, and he opened his umbrella when he went out, when that disgusting voice sounded again, the difference was that it was mixed with a bit of malice.

"Young Master Huaiyu is in such a hurry, and you want to go out even in the rain, but you have an appointment with your lover?" Yuqin didn't bother to care about this mortal who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth.

That person was ignored by Yuqin time and time again, and he became very angry, but he was just a lowly thing from a waiter's house, and he pushed his nose and face again and again.

"It's just a broken shoe, what are you pretending to be noble!" The man suddenly lost his patience, only thinking that he would have to train him well later, without thinking, he stretched out his hand and tightly grasped Yuqin's wrist , tried hard to drag him into the house.

Yuqin didn't notice it for a while, he didn't expect this mortal to be so courageous, he was really pulled by him, staggered, the umbrella suddenly tilted away, the raindrops wet his clothes densely, and the wet clothes stuck to his body, It's like trying to cover but not cover.

The man looked straight at him, and anxiously wanted to drag Yuqin into the inn.

Yuqin suddenly became angry, a golden light appeared in his eyes, and he suppressed his voice and said: "Get out." The man ignored him and chattered some obscene words in his mouth.

At this moment, a cold light flashed in the night, and the sound of "clanking" a sharp blade unsheathed came through the air. In an instant, an extremely sharp blade lay horizontally on the man's neck. The raindrops fell on the blade as if it had been cut straight.

"Go away." A thick and magnetic voice sounded.

Yuqin's body shook violently, and he quickly turned his head to look, only to see Xia Xinglan standing in the rain with disheveled clothes and bare feet, with the sword in his hand resting straight on the man's neck. With one move, the blade could cut through his flesh and blood.

Yuqin hurriedly shook off the man's arm, ran to Xia Xinglan's side, raised the umbrella high to cover the two of them, and kept wiping the drops of water off his face with distressed hands.

"Is it cold? Hurry up and change your clothes."

Xia Xinglan looked coldly at the man with trembling legs, and shouted angrily: "Get out!" The man ran away in an instant.

Then Xia Xinglan put the sword back into its sheath, and looked sideways at Yuqin, his handsome eyebrows and eyes showed a different charm under the dim light of the lantern in the night rain.

After the pair of star eyes were transferred to Yuqin, they were filled with love immediately, and stared at him intently and tenderly.

Yuqin only felt that all the sounds around him faded away like a tide, and only this tall and handsome man was left in his eyes and heart.He seemed to be able to hear his heart beating faster and faster, and the irritability and panic just now disappeared without a trace.

Yuqin became short of breath, her chest kept heaving, and she suddenly stepped forward to hug Xia Xinglan tightly. The powerful and masculine body of an adult man was clearly visible under the wet clothes. Yuqin was like a thirsty traveler in the desert. An oasis.

Xia Xinglan chuckled a few times, and hugged Yuqin back, and the vigorous heartbeats of the two were transmitted through the thin clothes.In the heavy rain, the two hugged each other tightly.

After a while.

Yuqin tied her black hair in a loose bun at the back of her head, and changed into a dry undershirt after taking a shower, while Xia Xinglan was shirtless and wiping her hair with a cloth towel.

Under the light, the vigorous body exudes infinite attraction, constantly hooking Yuqin, Yuqin bit her finger and blinked her eyes for a long time, finally couldn't help but lay down on Xia Xinglan's broad back from behind, her head was just washed He was fascinated by the fresh and masculine breath after the bath.

Xia Xinglan raised his hand to touch Yuqin's face with a funny face, and said, "Why don't you sleep in the middle of the night?"

Yuqin bit his shoulder angrily, leaving a tooth mark, "I should ask you this question, where did you go in the middle of the night?"

Xia Xinglan smiled and grabbed Yuqin's waist with his backhand, pulled him into her arms with a little force, and let him sit on her lap.

"Your man went to catch a demon."

"Where's the demon? If I didn't catch it, I'll question you tonight." Yuqin smiled and stretched out her hand, palm up, jokingly.

He didn't think Xia Xinglan could catch any monsters. Ever since he entered the city, he had released his consciousness in advance. Although there are small monsters in this city, they are not good enough. There is no need for Xia Xinglan to take action, let alone brave the heavy rain It was so messed up that he ran away without even bothering to put on his shoes.

Xia Xinglan deliberately lowered her face and said, "Are you questioning your man?"

Yuqin raised her eyebrows and waggled her fingers, meaning to quickly release the "monster" you caught and have a look.

Xia Xinglan smiled, took out a blue scale and put it in Yuqin's hand.

The tentacles were slightly cold, and Yuqin's face changed suddenly.

It's Qinglin again!

Xia Xinglan only felt the body in his arms tremble, and Yuqin's face turned pale. He thought it was because he was scared when he saw the scales, so he said comfortingly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here. I won't let the monster get close to you. Today I chased him and fought with him, these green scales fell from his body, I guess it is a snake demon, and his skills are not low."

Yuqin was cold all over, and his face was pale.He stared at the scales in his palm, never had he been so afraid for a moment, the scales seemed extremely hot, and he couldn't help shivering.

"Yuqin? Yuqin?" Xia Xinglan said softly, but Yuqin couldn't hear any sound at this moment, and just looked at Xia Xinglan's lips in a daze.The words spoken between the opening and closing of the beautifully shaped lips made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

"Don't be afraid, I will definitely kill that snake demon. I won't let him hurt you."
