I didn't intend to become a fairy

Chapter 119 Seems Just an Ordinary Day

"boom……"

The fire burned everything away, revealing the original night sky.

When the flames dissipated, no matter the exquisite and elegant pavilions, the colorful and beautiful lights, or those charming and ugly female ghosts, they all disappeared, as if they had never appeared before.

Only a barren hill was left in darkness.

Even though Wu Suowei has good eyesight, just now she was dazzled by the flames in the brightly lit ghost building, and she couldn't see clearly at this time, but she heard some surprised or frightened shouts around her, making her hold the sword Turning around instantly, it's just that these voices are ordinary male voices, so she didn't attack immediately.

"Relax."

A familiar voice came from behind.

Nvxia Wu breathed a sigh of relief.

When the eyes gradually get used to the darkness, with the crooked moon and thousands of stars, we can vaguely see this barren mountain, countless tree stumps, the southwestern horse tied to the stumps, the old man from Yizhou standing behind him, and the man who has sat up on the ground. Several men with terrified faces.

I can't see clearly in the dark, but I can still see white stripes, presumably without clothes.

"Everyone's clothes should be right next to you. Feel around and put them on," Song You said.

"who are you?"

"This is where?"

"I just didn't..."

"Isn't it still dawn?"

Four different voices sounded together.

It can be heard that some of them are already regular visitors to this wilderness ghost building, at least not the first time, while some don't know it, it seems to be the first time they have met, and they have never heard of it before.

Some voices still have a lot of breath, some are already very weak, and some ouch a few times, presumably because of back pain.

Then there was a sound of groping for clothes.

When they were almost finished wearing their clothes, they only heard the sound of a flame exploding:
"Canopy..."

Suddenly there was a fire in the night.

But Song You picked up a piece of wood branch from nowhere, and a flame ignited automatically on the wood branch, lighting up a small area between the barren mountains.

Several faces were reflected by the fire, with different expressions. The shadows of people, horses, and tree stumps were all cast on the ground.

"Where are the ghosts here?"

Wu Suowei asked Song You.

"It's gone."

"Is this gone?"

"It's just a brat."

"You Taoists are good at this kind of thing." Wu Suowei frowned, "It's a pity that no tokens were left behind."

"There is a specialization in martial arts. If a heroine encounters a ghost outside in the future, the sword is hard to hurt. It is best to leave. If you want to fight, you can smear the blood on the blade. A martial arts practitioner has strong blood and can overcome evil spirits."

"I know this. Isn't this thinking about having you? For no reason, why should I give myself a knife?"

When the other four heard it, they all understood.

The expressions of the four are also different.

One opened his eyes wide, terrified.

One person rejoiced and had some aftertaste.

One was disappointed and relieved.

One blamed them for meddling.

The flames ignited from the wooden branches in their hands illuminated their facial features indefinitely. With the help of this small flame, the Taoist stared at their expressions faintly to see what was in his heart.

There is no fire in this world.

"Sperm is on the brain!"

Wu Xia was so angry that she walked over and kicked the person who blamed them.

Song You didn't stop him, he still stood where he was:
"It's cool at night in the mountains, and the nearby villages may be able to stay overnight. If you live nearby, you can go home. If you live far away, please find a place to stay overnight."

Some people thanked, some people resented.

Some people were also kept by Wu Xia.

"The ghost was burnt to the ground by you, and nothing was left behind. Although it is often the case in catching and expelling ghosts, but in this way, according to the government's agreement, there will be no ghosts in one month to half a year after we reveal the list. We won the reward when the ghost incident happened later." Wu Xia said, "But here is a witness who was woken up by your fire, and with his testimony, maybe we can get the reward in a few days." To reward."

"The heroine is considerate."

Song You bowed his hands to him, and then looked at the man who was still dressed in a mess but dressed as a scholar: "My surname is Song Mingyou, a person from Yizhou, and I came here to exorcise ghosts, it's polite."

"What Wu did!"

"My surname is Gu... My surname is Gu Mingyi, from Jingzhou, thank you two for saving my life, I am ashamed."

Gu Yi only patted himself on the head.

"I'm really dizzy. I know this is a barren mountain. How can there be gorgeous pavilions on the barren hills that are not found in other prefectures? How can there be so many charming women? But for some reason, I didn't think it was strange at the time. , I thought that Changjing was so prosperous, it was just like this, I am really ashamed of the sages, I am ashamed of the sage books I read..."

"Since you are a ghost, you can confuse people's hearts. How can it be so easy to tell?"

Song You knew that even if there was a ghost charm, with the way of those two little ghosts, it must be their lust that would take advantage of them, but if he wanted to help testify, he was not stingy with these two words of comfort.

"Remember from now on, there is a knife on the head of the color character, especially when walking in the wilderness, you need to identify it more often."

"I know I know..."

"Can you still walk?"

"Can! Can!"

I'm afraid they will leave him behind.

"Take your bags and set off with us. Go to Changjing at this time, and you will be able to reach the gate of the city at dawn."

"Good good!"

Song You and the heroine walked back together.

The scholar followed them in a panic.

"Don't be afraid, scholar." Wu Xia led the horse and said as she walked, "That female ghost only sucks people's yang energy and doesn't know how to eat people. At most, your life will be shortened a little. Recently, you will suffer from backaches and bad spirits. Even if you came to Changjing to rush for the exam, you already finished the exam a few days ago, right?"

"Zheng, just finished the exam, so I wanted to go out to admire the peach blossoms, but I accidentally lost my way." After hearing what she said, the scholar became even more frightened, "Is it really going to shorten my life?"

"What's the matter? You are light!"

Wu Xia carefully discerned the way, grinned and said: "Today, oh, it was already yesterday. I announced the list yesterday morning. The county magistrate said that as far as I can find out, dozens of people have died because of being sucked dry. I don’t know how many people can’t be found, and I don’t know how many people who are weak and not dead but are about to die, and I don’t know how many people have lost their lives in the past few years.”

"what?"

The scholar was shocked.

The female hero seemed to be satisfied with a certain interest, and grinned.

There are countless stars, a little fire in the mountains, and they are getting farther and farther away.

……

Originally, if he traveled overnight, it would be similar to what Song You said, and he would be able to reach the gate of the city before dawn.

However, walking at night is difficult, and it is also difficult for people and horses. They had to find a place to take shelter from the wind and rest a few times. In short, they walked for a while when they were sitting in the cold. Halfway through, and the remaining half, almost in one breath.

Song You returned to Willow Street in the morning.

As soon as I inserted the key into the lock, I heard a series of sounds on the wooden ladder inside, very hurried. When I opened the door, there was a three-coloured cat sitting in the room, licking its paws and aiming at him.

"I am back."

The three-flowered cat lowered its paws and looked at him suspiciously: "Didn't it say it would take a few days?"

"Smooth than expected."

"Did you catch a ghost?"

"Caught."

Song You turned back while walking upstairs.

Sanhuamao followed behind him, raised its head and asked, "Where do you think our family's money has gone?"

"Could it be hidden by Empress Sanhua?"

"you guess."

"I do not know."

"Hidden by Empress Sanhua."

"Where is it hidden?"

"In the rat hole."

"Miss Sanhua is amazing."

Mao'er talked a lot, and Song You tried his best to accompany him.

When he reached the second floor, he lay down on the bed.

"Are you tired?"

"Just sleepy."

"Are you going to sleep?"

"almost."

"You slept during the day too..."

"yes……"

Song You's voice has become smaller and smaller.

I only vaguely noticed that the Sanhua cat was rubbing its feet on the bed, and jumped onto the bed after wiping it clean. Song You looked at him closely. Firstly, he found it funny, and secondly, he also felt relieved. Be it the exquisite attic, the charming female ghost, or the different faces of the four clients, all disappeared from my heart.

It was too easy to fall asleep.

When I opened my eyes again, it was dusk.

Like taking a long nap.

"..."

Waking up from a nap is always a strange feeling.

Just like that—

When I opened my eyes, there was no one in the room, and Mistress Sanhua didn't know where she had gone. She got up and walked a few steps, and opened the window. There was only dim light in front of her eyes. The gloomy sky in the evening made one feel like walking The illusion of the end of time, but the curfew has not yet been lifted. At this time, there are no people on the street outside the window, only the tiled roofs of the houses are connected together, and the world is quiet.

It always felt like a day was stolen, and what was lost was the whole world in this day.

This feeling is really wonderful.

So Song You put on his clothes and sat by the window for a while, savoring this feeling carefully while blowing the evening breeze, and waited until it completely slipped away from his heart, then got up and walked downstairs slowly.

The downstairs door was open, and in the dim light of the day, the cat was playing with a ball in the street.

Wu Xia took a small bench and sat under the eaves of her house, propping her chin and looking at the cat.

Seeing Song You coming out, she turned her head and her eyes lit up: "Hey! You finally woke up! I thought you were going to sleep until tomorrow!"

"The heroine didn't sleep?"

"Narrowed for a while."

"You should rest more."

"People in Jianghu are in good health, so go to bed early tonight." Wu Suowei looked indifferent, "I took the scholar to the county government to hand in the list today, and it went well. I guess the county magistrate believed in the scholar. People go to that mountain to have a look, as long as there is no attic coming out after seven days, he will come to give us money... Don't worry, as long as we really have the ability to eliminate demons, he will not dare not give us money."

"Everything is done by the heroine, I am really ashamed."

"What are you ashamed of? It's just that each has a division of labor. I'm ashamed that you burned those ghosts straight away with one fire. I picked up a cheap one and I will give you more money at that time."

"It's better to have information about the heroine."

Song You also went to the house and brought a bench out, sat at the door, rested from the cold, and watched the cat play the ball on the ground.

"You cat is still arrogant. I just said I would play with it, but it quit and almost scratched me."

"Mistress Sanhua has her own ideas."

"..."

It seems that the past is just an ordinary day.
