The day of fortune-telling for the dragon

"It turned out to be the top card..." Hua Jue was a little surprised.The Fenghuang he saw was extremely ugly both in human form and in the original body, and it was impossible for people to associate it with the magnificent brothel prostitute.In his perception, everyone in the master's restaurant is beautiful and outstanding, if it is the top... how good-looking is it?

He secretly glanced at Xuanlong beside him, compared them, and tried to figure out a standard in his heart.Xuanlong should be very good-looking. I don’t know if I can send this dragon here to name it, and use it as a top card to supplement the family or something... After a while, he thought of the most beautiful Mr. Sang in his heart, and then hurriedly Suppressed his wild thoughts.

He was not born 19 years ago, and he has never participated in such an occasion until now, so naturally he has never heard of these romantic events.His only impression of Huanguan Kiln is that during the spring, summer, and autumn "walking" season, men and women dressed up in fancy dress go to the street to solicit customers. A courtesan once gave him a bunch of sugar paintings .Hua Jue still remembers that prostitute's eyebrows are not so beautiful - the prostitutes who can follow out for "walking" will not be treated well in the entertainment hall.Behind her heavy makeup, she could not conceal her exhaustion, but when she looked at Hua Jue and his friends, she showed some moving colors.

Maybe she wants a baby?Hua Jue thought.

But his little friends thought that the things touched by prostitutes were dirty, so they knocked out the sugar painting in his hand without any explanation, and dragged him to another place to play, and they didn't leave until dark.Hua Jue waited until after dark, and didn't go home directly, but went to the street during the day, and searched back and forth many times before finding a dirty bamboo stick and a puddle of black sugar residue.It was summer at that time, and the sugar paintings had already melted away. The young Hua Jue held up the bamboo stick and searched for the entrance of Jiangling Music Square. The woman who had shown him kindness.He couldn't say the words of thanks and apology that he held back in his heart.

After returning home, he told his grandma about it, and grandma just sighed, and said to him: "In the future, if you encounter such a thing, you must do it immediately, and don't wait until you regret it." When he was puzzled by other people's malice, grandma told him like this: "There is no right or wrong in everything, you are not wrong, and others are not wrong either, as long as you have a clear conscience."

Later, Hua Jue was frightened by all kinds of ghosts, and grew into a person who is wary of everything. I don't know if it is his blessing or disaster.

He was distracted, but was suddenly pulled by Xuanlong, turned around and saw the door of a certain room behind him was slowly pushed open with a creak, and a person he knew came out... no, two people he knew , talked happily and behaved freely.Meeting them in this kind of place, Hua Jue was like seeing a ghost.

The moment Hua Jue's eyes touched them, she retracted her gaze, and hurriedly found a pillar to hide, but was grabbed by Xuanlong: "They have already seen you, and it is useless to hide."

On the other side, the city lord of Jiangling and his accountant stopped in their tracks and looked over together.

Hua Jue was carried by Xuanlong, held back for a long time, and choked out a few words: "City Master, Mr. Sang, you, you also come to visit the brothel..." As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he wanted to slap himself, and sure enough, he heard Sang The husband laughed out loud: "We're here to discuss business. It's you...you two, why did you come here?"

His gaze was not directed at Hua Jue, but at Xuan Long.

Xuanlong was no longer hostile to Mr. Sang as before, and replied lightly: "Come to tell the fortune, come to find someone."

The two people over there didn't know whether to believe it or not.Mr. Sang came over and stuffed a heater into Hua Jue's sleeve. After looking at him for a while, he said with a half-smile, "Then remember to go home early...don't play too late."

Hua Jue was caught by them again, so she could only nod repeatedly.Mr. Sang nodded to Xuanlong again, and then followed Jiangling City Lord out.Immediately afterwards, several old mothers who came out of the room to talk about things came over and asked one after another: "This young man is so young, but he has a good relationship with the city lord?"

They just went out and saw two strangers standing on the first floor that should be inaccessible to idlers and others. Their original intention was to drive them away so as not to bump into their money bowls, but they did not expect that Mr. Accountant of the city lord When they came up, they greeted them very cordially, and even gave away the stove they used, which made them very jealous.

Hua Jue was a little at a loss: "They take good care of me..." Xuan Long poked him beside him: "Be smart, Hua Jue."

After being called by Xuanlong, Hua Jue immediately understood, and quickly called out the neighbor's name: "The city lord told me to come here and wait for them, and by the way, look for an old friend from 19 years ago. My friend said that he only remembered the name of the old man. I don't know if you have an impression of the word 'phoenix'?"

"Feng character?" The mothers were cheerful, rushing over to curry favor: "There are not many people of the Feng character generation, we also file here and report to the imperial court every year. Since you are the friend of the city lord, please don't dislike it." Our reception, going to the private room, etc., the old man will present the roster for the two of you."

"No, it's good for him to stay here alone, I'll go out for a while." Xuanlong said suddenly.

He let go of Hua Jue's hand.Hua Jue turned her head to look at him, and suddenly felt that Xuanlong's temperament had changed, becoming cold and sharp, as if the cold blade hidden in the shadow had finally come out of its sheath.But this feeling disappeared in just a moment, Xuanlong was very calm, and when he saw him looking over, he gently raised the corners of his mouth.

The wind picked up outside the window, and the lanterns hit the honey oil wood beams one after another, making a clicking sound.

Hua Jue stopped.Xuan Long reached out and touched his head: "I forgot something, I'll go home and get it."

Hua Jue asked: "What?"

Xuan Long paused for a moment: "Well... When I went out, I put a copper bowl on the parrot with a broken beak. It was airtight, and it was about to be suffocated to death."

When Hua Jue heard it, she was a little dumbfounded: "Why is this happening? Aren't you just kidding?"

Xuanlong smiled apologetically, then patted his head: "So I'll go back first, you wait for me obediently, don't go anywhere else."

As he spoke, he opened the window and jumped out while there was no one around.Hua Jue looked out of the window, and saw Xuanlong directly transformed into a dragon shape, like a tall and concealed banner, fluttering away with the wind, and disappeared above the clouds in a blink of an eye.

What he didn't know was that the non-nirvana phoenix itself had died once. It was a dead spirit and didn't need to breathe.Xuanlong made up a random reason to deceive Hua Jue, and flew directly to their home.The wind and rain changed direction and slowly enveloped the entire south of the city.

In the small courtyard between him and Hua Jue, a fat-headed tabby cat was pressed to the ground by a bird dozens of times smaller than him. Go to its guts.Sha Mao was in so much pain that he couldn't even cry out, and almost died.It was only half a minute away, the surroundings were silent, there was no sound, but the little bird suddenly jumped up in alarm, let Hua Dabao go, and turned to erect its feathers full of vigilance.

At this time, its appearance was completely different from that shown in front of Huajue: Although it was still a small and fat mass, its eyes turned red, the edges of its pupils appeared dark gray, its nails became longer, and its bones resembled It is to break through this small body and make a crackling sound like crackling.

At the same time, the black dragon descended from the sky and set off a strong wind, standing at the gate of the courtyard and confronting him coldly.

Xuanlong gently took Hua Dabao with his paws, protected it under his belly, and sneered: "The barrier I set in the bowl can't restrain you, you really have a problem."

"It doesn't matter if you can't hold it down?" Xiaoniao's voice was also cold: "Isn't it just falling into the devil's way? It's as if you haven't seen it before. Don't you know it the most?"

As he said that, a piece of bloody bone broke out of its body, tearing its body apart abruptly.The phoenix soared hundreds of times in size out of thin air, waved its wings, rolled up pale will-o'-the-wisps, and rushed into the sky.With a low growl, Xuanlong also chased after him, summoning the wind and rain from the world, and quickly rushed into the deep sky.With unparalleled and absolute power and authority, the black dragon faced the towering flames controlled by the phoenix.

Now what was unfolding before his eyes was the real phoenix: a hundred feet long, with a tail like a falling cloud, that shocking beauty surpassed all living things in the world.It's just that the flame is pale and has no temperature, it's a will-o'-the-wisp, and the rain can't extinguish it, so it can only be allowed to rage on the body, burning shocking scars.

"It's not necessary, it's just a cat. Speaking of which, you and I should have become a pair of cultivators, and Long He should be with Phoenix, not with a sick mortal who will die at any time."

"They are all my family." Xuanlong said, "Whoever dares to hurt them, no matter whether it is a human, a demon, a demon or a ghost, I will hunt down and kill them to the end."

Phoenix let out a stern mocking sound: "You really value love and righteousness... Why don't you fight me with the power of demons? Don't you know that under normal circumstances, you can't stop a demon that has fallen into the path of demons?" from Phoenix?"

Xuanlong's eyes are always clear and calm, the dark place is like a deep pool, and the white place is as bright as a stream.

He said, "I don't need it."

Immediately afterwards, dragons roared and phoenixes screamed, and the fight resumed.

In the Jiangling Music Workshop, Hua Jue sat alone in the warm private room, carefully looking through the stacks of rosters.The content on the official register is so complicated that it dazzles his eyes, but he is sure that he has searched through the hundreds of pages of the register 19 years ago, but there is no "Feng Huang" the person's name.

The name of this head card is hung in the corridor on the top floor of the Huan Guan, and it also exists in the oral legends of various young men.But why can't I find his file?

Hua Jue put the books back in place, went out and asked, "Is it possible that a person's official seal file is missing?"

"My lord, you are right. Our place is strictly guarded, and there will definitely not be such a thing." The old woman wandered around the floor picking out the curtains, and replied casually: "If you are redeemed, there are parents in the house." , I asked my parents to sign and draw a deposit, and then the master who bought him signed it again, and it was gone. Who dares to tamper with the things that are going to be sent to the officials? Young master, look again, there must be some mistakes and omissions .”

Hua Jue asked again, and learned that among the nuns in charge of Huanguan, none of them knew what happened 19 years ago. In the past 20 years, the top brands have been replaced with new ones, and the nurses have already changed several batches.

In such a long time, I don't know how many people from that year can remain.

Hua Jue decided to wait for Xuanlong to come back, and together with him, he would ask those young men to see if they could get some other explanations.When he was thinking this way, he suddenly heard a muffled thunder outside the window, followed by a flash of lightning that illuminated the entire room.

He rushed to the window, and sure enough, he saw a large group of dark clouds gathered over the south of the city, with thunder and lightning, and wondered if it was raining heavily.This strange thing is also strange here, except for that area, other places in Jiangling are very stable, and there is no sign of rain at all.

Hua Jue was nervous for a while, not knowing what happened to Xuanlong carrying him behind his back, so she hurried downstairs and stuffed a few handfuls of silver into the arms of a driver who stopped at the door: "Go to the south of the city. , City Lord’s Mansion, please hurry up.”

This time, the coachman was no longer in a rush like he encountered last time, he just drove his horse slowly towards that side, very impatient with his urging.After crossing half of Jiangling City, Hua Jue waited so hard that his heart felt cold. Seeing that he was about to reach the place, the coachman still didn't leave, and said: "It's muddy, I didn't prepare an awning, this saddle is still a new one. of it."

Hua Jue had just handed over all the money she had on her body, so she had no choice but to jump out of the car and run home by herself.He didn't notice that there was a small, faint blue light in the rain, which was the will-o'-the-wisp.When he got to the place, he looked up and vaguely saw two shadows hidden in the dark clouds, one was white and the other was black.

He watched for a while, then yelled, but the struggle above still had no intention of stopping.After a while, as if he remembered something, he took out a pen from his sleeve, quickly added Phoenix's name to the "broken" talisman he carried with him, gritted his teeth, cut his finger, and dripped a drop on it. Blood, and then thrown out.

The sound of the wind vibrated, and the noisy and churning sound in the deep space stopped suddenly.

Hua Jue watched eagerly, and saw a white figure plummeting down, getting smaller and smaller, and finally circled a few times lightly in the air.Hua Jue saw that it was a small, chubby bird, and subconsciously wanted to reach out to catch it, but saw a black shadow blocking her, and stretched out her palm just like him.The bird didn't have time to turn around, and its sharp claws directly pierced Xuanlong's palm, penetrating his bones.

If there was no Xuanlong standing in front of him, Hua Jue's chest would be pierced by this sharp claw in an instant.

Xuan Long lightly said: "Did you see it? Don't tell your fortune for this bad-haired parrot, it's not half as cute as your cat."

The little phoenix was held tightly in his hand, and it was only a point away from being crushed. Under such circumstances, it still held on and uttered a few words with a sneer: "At this time, let's pretend to be a big tail!" Wolf, if he hadn't rushed over suddenly, you would have been almost killed by me."

"If I win you, he wins you." Xuanlong said, "Under such circumstances, if he wins you, it is also equivalent to me winning you. I told you a long time ago, don't compare me with Hua. Jue thinks too much, I will always be with him."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Hua Jue: "Tell me, is that so?"

Hua Jue was still in shock, and rushed forward and pushed him back into the room to stop the bleeding: "Yes, yes, shut up and take medicine."
