When he opened his eyes again, he saw a quiet courtyard in front of him. A lantern was hung at the door. The faint light alleviated the desolate atmosphere a little. Luo Jinxiao breathed a sigh of relief and was surprised to find that he was covered with a thin layer of sweat.
"Master, what was that just now?" she asked hurriedly.
Elder Liu still had a gloomy expression on his face: "I don't know either. Fortunately, I heard that things have been unsettled in the sect these days, so I went to pick you up. Otherwise, there would be serious trouble."
"Many people in this sect cannot be trusted. I have just discussed with Elder He that if there are more disappearances, we will have to dismiss the disciples first."
Dismissal? Luo Jinxiao's heart sank. The situation had become so serious.
"But that was something we had no choice." Elder Liu let out a long sigh. The running around these past few days had made his originally young face look several years older.
"How can I help you, disciple?" Luo Jinxiao stepped forward and asked.
"That thing was not kind to you. You should just stay in Wuhuimen for the next few days and don't go anywhere. Thank God." Elder Liu shook his head, tapped Luo Jinxiao's head with the fan in his hand, and walked into the house.
Luo Jinxiao was confused, so she chased after him and asked, "Why are you being so mean to me?"
"Why do you have so many questions?" Elder Liu blew his beard and glared at him, "Your immortal vein is already more special than others. You are lucky to be able to protect yourself from being used to make pills. Don't think about it all day long."
"I have a lot of things to do now, and I can't always follow you. It's not necessarily safe to stay in a crowd. I asked you to give this today." Elder Liu took out a pocket sachet from the cabinet and threw it into Luo Jinxiao's hand. "If you see this thing again someday, open it and I will help you."
Luo Jinxiao understood. No wonder Qu Weiyin suddenly came to see her a few days ago. It turned out to be because of this reason.
The Zhiyin Immortal Vein is helpful for cultivation, but Elder Liu said that it is more dangerous. It seems that the disciples who disappeared before may have had their spiritual energy sucked away.
The Wuhui Sect is very secretive about this, probably because they are afraid of causing panic among their disciples.
Luo Jinxiao felt a little warmth in her heart. At least before she noticed the cliff, someone had already stood in front of her. But at the same time, she also felt frustrated. Not only could she not protect others, but she also made others worry about her.
"Thank you, Master." Luo Jinxiao said in a low voice.
"Let's go, I'll send you back. I have important things to do." Elder Liu sighed, looking tired. He grabbed Luo Jinxiao with one hand, with great force, and it hurt. She felt dizzy again. She was already standing at the door of the disciple's room. The lights were on inside, and a woman's laughter could be heard.
Elder Liu had disappeared. A woman in white at the door strode up to Luo Jinxiao and asked gently, "Junior sister, it's late. Please go in quickly."
Luo Jinxiao hurriedly thanked them, then pushed the door and walked into the side room. These were all older disciples who came to guard the place. It was a cool autumn night, and they had been guarding outside all night, which was really hard work.
Luo Jinxiao's bed was next to Lu Fanzhi. She chatted with Lu Fanzhi for a few words, then lay on the bed, staring intently at the spirit stone, playing with it in her hands.
Not until the last person who came back with dew blew out the light did Luo Jinxiao put the spirit stone next to his pillow and closed his eyes and fell asleep.
I slept until midnight, when the night wind blew open the window, making a creaking sound. The sticky wind, mixed with moisture, made my head feel dizzy.
Someone in the room had been mumbling constantly, but at this moment the sound suddenly stopped and there was silence.
A faint murmur came from somewhere again. Luo Jinxiao listened to it in her dream, but she felt that it was not human. She was confused and a layer of cold sweat broke out on her back. Although her eyes were closed, she was awake.
She could almost hear her own pulse beating and feel the sticky feeling approaching, which was creepy.
A sense of anger rose in her heart. What was that thing that was still chasing her? She immediately released her spiritual sense, sensing the thing gradually approaching.
No matter whether he can win or not, just fight first.
At this moment, another voice came from outside the door, breaking the dead silence. Luo Jinxiao moved his ears, turned over and jumped up, grabbed the magic sword in his hand, and slashed in the direction of the breath just emitted. The thick air in front of him dispersed and closed, and there was nothing.
Luo Jinxiao's heart sank suddenly, and a nightmare-like feeling swept over her whole body. Her body was suddenly unable to move, and she froze in place. The feeling of not being able to control herself was not pleasant. Luo Jinxiao said to herself that this was not good, and she moved her teeth desperately, biting her lip.
The pain woke her up. When she opened her eyes, she saw the carved beams of the wing room. Cold sweat streamed down her forehead. She was still lying on the bed, not moving.
She had never encountered such a strange thing. Luo Jinxiao summoned the magic sword with her backhand and cut her arm. Blood and pain gushed out together. Only then did she confirm that she was awake.
The sticky feeling had completely surrounded her. Luo Jinxiao gritted her teeth and released her spiritual power regardless of the consequences. The silvery-white light immediately filled the entire room, illuminating the furnishings in the room. The sticky airflow was dispersed to the side. She then rolled off the bed and vigilantly held the magic sword in front of her.
There was another sound of something breaking outside the door, and at the same time the door was wide open. Luo Jinxiao's hands trembled, and she almost used a killing move. Fortunately, a familiar figure rushed to her side and grabbed her wrist.
"It's me." An indifferent voice sounded. After Luo Jinxiao heard who it was, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense body relaxed.
"Junior Master?" she said softly.
Qu Weiyin did not answer. She took out a few yellow talismans from somewhere and muttered something silently. The talisman papers emitted a little light and she stuck them on the door lintel with a swish.
At the same time, the sticky and weird feeling disappeared in an instant, and the surroundings returned to calm. The chirping of insects could be heard, making a noisy and lively sound.
Luo Jinxiao closed his eyes slightly, and before he knew it, his clothes were already soaked with sweat.
Qu Weiyin's expression was no longer so solemn. She flicked her fingers and the candles in the room lit up one after another. Lu Fanzhi, who was standing beside her, muttered something and turned over.
"It's okay." Qu Weiyin said. Although she looked calm on the surface, her heart was beating like a drum. When she arrived just now, she saw that the house was dead silent and almost thought she was a step too late.
Fortunately, no, she breathed a sigh of relief silently.
Someone else dragged his feet and ran into the house. It was Chang Siyu and the senior sister in white clothes whom he had met just last night. Both of them looked frightened. The senior sister who was on guard looked even more miserable. There was a bloodstain on her fair face and her legs were a little lame.
Chang Siyu seemed to suddenly realize that he had intruded into the female disciple's room without permission, and quickly covered his eyes.
"Thank you, Uncle-Master Qu." The senior sister said repeatedly.
"Nothing." Qu Weiyin shook her head. She looked solemn and handed the remaining talismans to Chang Siyu. "Take this with you when you are on night watch next time. Elder Liu just wrote this. It will be useful when you encounter unexpected events."
Chang Siyu quickly took it over. He was about to say something, but when he saw Qu Weiyin's eyes, the words suddenly got stuck in his throat.
"Get out quickly." Qu Weiyin frowned.
Chang Siyu heard this and quickly stepped back and ran out of the door. Qu Weiyin looked away and then told the white-robed senior sister: "With this spell, things will get better in the future, but it's only a temporary solution, so you still can't relax. Do you understand?"
The sister in white nodded quickly.
Qu Weiyin then turned to look at Luo Jinxiao, her eyes calm, as if she was not nervous because of worry just now. She looked at Luo Jinxiao, making Luo Jinxiao feel cold from head to toe.
Luo Jinxiao suddenly felt that his disheveled hair looked a little frivolous at this moment.
"Pack your clothes and follow me." Qu Weiyin said, and strode out the door.
Upon hearing this, Luo Jinxiao hurriedly grabbed his coat from the screen beside him, wrapped it around himself while running, and caught up with Qu Weiyin.
"Junior Master..." She was interrupted by Qu Weiyin halfway through her words.
Qu Weiyin walked briskly while saying, "I will rush down the mountain early tomorrow morning to see if I can find the two missing disciples. You come with me."
Luo Jinxiao opened his mouth to ask, but was interrupted by Qu Weiyin: "After we get here, you are only allowed to follow me. I am not bringing you along to ask for help, but to keep you from leaving my sight, so that you won't be targeted by these filthy creatures again."
As Qu Weiyin was talking, she suddenly stopped and turned around. Luo Jinxiao almost bumped into her and quickly stepped back.
"You must promise me. Otherwise, you will stay here and wait to die." Qu Weiyin frowned and pursed her lips.
Although her tone was stern, the look in her eyes was not tough, and it didn't sound like an order.
Luo Jinxiao's heartbeat paused involuntarily, the slight frustration in his heart before nightfall instantly disappeared, and he nodded obediently.
It doesn't matter if she is weak, it's good to be protected by the junior master, she thought desperately.
"Elder Liu really needs to be left, so I'm the only one to take you with me." Qu Weiyin explained again, as if she was afraid that Luo Jinxiao would overthink it. As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her hand to summon the Crescent Moon and Star Sword, jumped up, and stepped on it.
"Then what do I need to prepare?" Seeing this, Luo Jinxiao unsheathed his magic sword and quickly chased into the air.
"Qiongqi." Qu Weiyin said.
Hearing this, Luo Jinxiao patted his purse and said brightly, "I brought it."
"That's good." Qu Weiyin nodded, looking quite satisfied. Luo Jinxiao couldn't help feeling disappointed after hearing this. He felt that he was just a burden and was not as capable as a Qiongqi.
The two walked silently for a while. The night was still very dark. The hems of their clothes were covered with dew and felt damp and heavy.
Under the faint light of the sky, the cliff became a silhouette, and the small house standing on it was lit up, cool and bright.
Qu Weiyin opened the door and went in. The hem of her skirt dragged on the ground, bending back and forth in different arcs. She rummaged through the drawers and threw a few pieces of clothes into Luo Jinxiao's hands.
"We left in a hurry and didn't take anything with us." She shook the old-looking cloth in her hand, "We can't reveal our identities, so we can just pretend to be ordinary people."
Luo Jinxiao agreed repeatedly, but couldn't help asking: "Little Master, did you rush to save me just now because you knew I was in trouble?"
A hint of anticipation rose in her heart.
The clothes in Qu Weiyin's hands suddenly fell. She paused and picked them up silently.
"I was just following orders. You happened to have that thing, so I rushed over to help you out."
