Hong Xiu was a little dazed, lying in his cousin's arms, feeling his warm and strong heartbeat, smelling his scent, couldn't help but her heart pounding like a deer.
Why is my cousin hugging me? What does he want? Does he like me too? Should I resist, or let him caress me? Do I want to fight but be ashamed all my life, and let you have fun for half a day? That's not good
Hong Xiu was shy and flustered when suddenly her eyes went dark and she passed out.
Hong Xiu's strength is low, and she immediately showed her original shape as soon as she fainted.
Li Huaide hugged the small red fox and smiled helplessly.
He tucked the red fox into his big sleeves, went out of the room, and explained to the shopkeeper that he would go out for a few days to buy some goods.
The shopkeeper believed it was true, and sent the owner away with a smile.
Li Huaide left the teahouse, hired two carriages and left the city.
After leaving Nancheng and walking to a village ten miles away, Li Huaide sent the carriage back to the city.
He changed into Taoist attire and flew towards Qingqiu in the mountains.
Farmers and merchants on the road would not be too surprised to see Li Huaide flying by. They often see the scene of Taoists flying by.
Occasionally, if a Taoist saw it, he would only look at Li Huaide curiously, and would not stop him.
This is why Li Huaide deliberately changed his Taoist attire.
If he was wearing the clothes of ordinary people, he would inevitably be noticed, and Taoists would inevitably stop him for questioning.
One day and one night, he ran more than 800 miles.
Li Huaide stopped at Mingwu Mountain, found a hidden cave, and gently put Hongxiu, who was still in a coma, on the ground.
After giving her a massage, guessing that Hongxiu was about to wake up, he carved a few lines beside the rock where she was lying, telling her to either practice in this mountain, or go back to Qingqiu, and not to come to him again.
After engraving the words, Li Huaide flew back immediately.
The junior sister is doing a task and will encounter danger and harm at any time, so he has to go back to protect the junior sister.
After a stick of incense, Hongxiu came to life. She was startled when she saw the unfamiliar environment, and it took her a long time to remember the past.
Hongxiu didn't understand what was going on.
She checked her body, and seeing that what she had imagined hadn't happened, she was relieved and a little unhappy.
When she lowered her head and saw Li Huaide's message on the ground, Hongxiu became depressed.
What do you mean? Is this asking me to fend for myself? Never want to see me again
Am I that unpopular? Do you have to make me dizzy and throw me into Mingwu Mountain, which is 800 miles away from Yichun
Hongxiu felt self-pity and hurt herself for a while, and felt so depressed that she couldn't help but come up with another idea: my cousin has close contacts with that female crown, and that female crown has frequent contacts with the Taoist in Changxin Temple. It's too dangerous for my cousin to mix with a group of Taoists. He must have been afraid of hurting me, so he deliberately sent me to this safe mountain.
No, my cousin is in danger, I'm going to save him.
A girl who is just in love, cute and ignorant, will only think in the direction she wants to believe in when things happen, and will imagine the person she likes very beautifully. Even if he hurt her, she would think of reasons for him.
Hongxiu thought for a while, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that maybe his cousin was not because he fell in love with the female crown, but because he had to do something important to get close to the female crown on purpose.
Cousin is willing to take risks to do this kind of thing, but he doesn't want to hurt himself. But her cousin saved her life, how could she refuse to save her life? If she didn't save her cousin, how could she be in the mood to practice peacefully
Hongxiu immediately left the cave and headed towards Yichun.
It's just that she doesn't have Li Huaide's ability and disguise, and she is not as bold as Li Huaide. In the country of Chu, where Taoists are densely populated, these 800 miles are really not close to her.
When Yu Qingyao arrived at Zhumadian, she first found the local Changdao Temple, first gained the trust of the local Taoist priests by letter, and then asked about the latest information about the Panbaimu Monster.
Here, she learned more details about the case.
The three people whose eyes had been gouged out were all girls around ten years old, the oldest was twelve, and the youngest was nine.
The average interval is three days.
The family backgrounds of the three girls are not exactly the same, one is the daughter of a grocery store owner, the other is the daughter of a satin farm owner, and the third is the daughter of a juggler.
The three girls are all pretty and lovely. It is said that they are all lively and smiling girls, and they all have a pair of beautiful big eyes. Everyone around them likes them.
All three of them woke up in the middle of the night when they suddenly felt severe pain in their eyes.
When the family heard the girl's cries and rushed in, they saw no one.
The Taoist priests from the Changxin branch of Zhumadian went to the scene and confirmed that there was a monster at the scene, which should be done by monsters.
They found claw marks on the outer wall of the room where the girl lived. It is inferred that the monster should climb the wall and get into the house from the window or the gap between the roof and the wall.
When monsters escape, they usually go through windows.
After talking with the Taoist, Yu Qingyao asked for a small courtyard to live in. After dinner, she took a rest, and in the light of the new moon, she went out to patrol the streets.
For this kind of monster, she didn't have a good idea for a while. When patrolling the street, she would show the Taoist of Changxin Temple to show that she was earnestly and actively catching monsters. Even if everyone knows that there is little hope of catching the monster in this way. But attitude is the most important thing, you have to have such an attitude.
Secondly, she also wants to try her luck, what if the monster comes out to commit crimes tonight? What if you really met yourself
Thirdly, she first recognizes the way. When you arrive in a strange city, if you don’t know the way, let alone solve the case and catch the demon, you will get lost.
She asked for two Taoists from the branch, Zhang Zuo and Wang Bin. These two Taoists are martial arts practitioners, she asked them to lead the way.
These two Taoists were both in their thirties, looked shrewd and powerful, and each carried a big ring knife on their backs.
Yu Qingyao rode on the paper horse, thinking while walking, why did the monster choose girls to harm? They also only pick out those who are lively, cute, and have beautiful eyes, which is simply abominable. How cute is the little loli? How can you do it, why don't you look for such an old man who is dying, a beggar who is idle, or an official with a fat brain
Wu Zhen stood on her master's shoulder, looking around boredly.
She has now adapted to the life of wandering around with her master. Follow Yu Qingyao, because she is a demon pet, many sons who want to please Yu Qingyao will please her and give her all kinds of delicious food. You can see many treasures that you have never seen before, see the excitement that you didn't dare to see before, and go to many places that you didn't dare to go before.
She felt that this kind of life was actually a hundred times more interesting than hunting alone in the mountains.
The clapper of the second watch rang.
In the distance, a watchman shouted in a hoarse voice: "It's the second watch, be careful of candles, folks, close the door!"
The sound of closing doors and windows of various houses sounded one after another.
The sound of creaking door hinges, slamming of window lattices, friction of door bolts, cries of children, and hurried footsteps of passers-by form an interesting serenade.
Not long after, the small town became quiet, and the sound of the white horse's hooves was particularly crisp in the still night.
Yu Qingyao asked: "Ah Zhen, did you find anything?"
