After hearing Namo's words, he became more and more confused: Jiuying is a ferocious beast. There are documents that "Jiuying, the monster of water and fire, was born from the yin and yang of heaven and earth. The body of Hydra is harmed by human beings because of its tyranny. Later generations do not know its whereabouts. Anyway, the well-known rumors are now being killed by Yi Yi, which is undoubtedly true. However, it is said that people, after a long time ago, were confused about where the nine-headed old monster was killed. Some people said that they must have been killed by Yi Yi in the deep mountains and rivers that it was born, while others said that they were shot and killed in the evil water of Beidi. In short, people expressed their opinions, and then they did not expect to have a unified statement in the current documentary records.

Let’s talk about the shade of the candle - a human face and dragon body, holding a candle in his mouth, living in Zhongshan north of the Central Plains, with two eyes standing upright, the lower one is the original eye to see the heaven and earth, and the upper one is the Yin eye and hell. But no matter what, it is still a divine beast. It is essentially different from a ferocious beast like Jiuying. Everyone was killed at that time. One overlooked the world and was free and respected by others. Although it was finally pressed by the world and greedy for the care of light, it was unknown whether it was hidden in the mountains or killed.

But no matter how you look at it, there is no reason for these two to be tied together, not to mention... a demon and a god were engraved on a brush. Even if it seemed a bit absurd to me, it was not so thoughtful, just like... it was a very important thing, but this feeling came too wonderful and disappeared instantly after I learned the answer, which made me a little confused.

After thinking about it carefully, I felt nothing at all, so I could only give up and complain to Nan Wu casually, thinking that there was no follow-up. Who knew that as soon as he finished speaking, he saw him holding his hands in his chest and looking at me with a smile. I was stunned, then frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"

Na Wu smiled and said, "Go back to find a tutoring service, I won't talk to you too much, now I'll go back!" Compared to others, my curiosity should be very small, not to mention that I had no idea of ​​scratching my heart and lungs before, so even if I can't get the answer for a while, I won't be too entangled. I just glanced at Xiao Ge and saw that he was not interested in walking around more, so I went back to the inn together and prepared to take a nap.

When I returned to the inn, the shopkeeper was awake. He supported his head with one hand and yawned with his mouth with the other hand. When he saw us entering the door, he asked lazily: "What? It's boring outside?" I was stunned and didn't know how to answer - in my opinion, Jiangnan is beautiful, the small bridges and flowing water, and Wu Nong's soft words. But everything was disturbed by Namo. At first, he was still a little interested, but later he was galloping all over the streets and alleys, intentionally avoiding the teasing of the young men and girls on the road. Without seeing the scenery at all, he came back in shame.

After not replying for a long time, the shopkeeper was not dissatisfied, so he threw a look of "Ask a question, why should he be so slow?" and smiled: "They are all busy working to supplement their household income during the day, so they are in a hurry. If you go out at night, you won't let you go back disappointed."

Having said that, we could only thank him seriously. When we were about to leave, we suddenly stopped and smiled and almost said: "Shopkeeper, I have something to do. Can you tell me?" When the shopkeeper heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then he became lazy again: "What's wrong with Taoist Jade? Let me tell you."

After receiving the agreement, I carefully pointed to the brush that Yi put beside him and asked: "This brush is engraved with Jiuying and Zhuyin. Can I know the reason?" The shopkeeper was stunned. Obviously, he didn't expect me to ask this question. A trace of nostalgia and admiration flashed in his eyes, but it was fleeting: "Why do you want to know this?"

I replied calmly: "It's just because of interest."

The shopkeeper glanced at me sideways: "Just interested?" Before I could answer, he continued to say to himself: "Actually there is nothing to say. This was specially written by the former owner Chen Fuqing. If we don't know the reason, we can't speculate on ourselves. Anyway, this habit has been passed down." After getting the answer, I felt a little relieved. After saying goodbye with a warm voice, I quickly followed Namo and Xiao Ge.

After dinner, he followed the shopkeeper's wishes and planned to look at Jiangnan under the night. Before leaving, he specifically advised Na Wu not to yell casually without any scruples. The answer to me was his disapproving answer. But I didn't care. If he could restrain himself by saying a few words to Na Wu, Brother Shu and Sister Jun would not grit their teeth all day long, and stared at him from time to time with the look of "I hate the iron but the iron is not strong enough".

As the shopkeeper said, the nights in Jiangnan were really extraordinary: it happened to be a little rain at this time. I often heard others say that Jiangnan was misty and rainy. This time I felt it when I walked on the streets of Jiangnan. A woman held a graceful umbrella, stepped on the bluestone slabs, walked through the streets and alleys, or lingered in various banquet stalls in groups of three or three, or wandered alone, with a lonely expression, and the moonlight stretched the woman's graceful figure. From time to time, a black-shouldered boat passed by, and occasionally one or two young men were on the other side of the shore regardless of their image. Maybe they were drunk.

As the saying goes, "Walk around Wanliudi, and chant when drunk on Baihuazhou." The scene is very lively! I have used dinner in the inn, but looking at the past, there are all kinds of stalls, including rouge shops and various gadgets of different styles. From time to time, there are timbre drums, diabolos, and bird whistles from alleys in all directions to your ears, etc. These are not the most important. The most uncontrollable thing is the aroma of food that can be smelled everywhere. If you do not close your sense of smell, these different fragrances will scramble to stimulate your taste buds, making you unable to stop.

At the beginning, I could suppress my thoughts of being ready to move, but the world did not go as I wished. The area of ​​Jiangnan is really a "evil"; because we couldn't help it in the end. I heard that Jiangnan is focusing on enjoyment, and under the circumstances of the Ming An situation of Guotai, it became more and more serious. Even though I closed my sense of smell, I consciously avoided all the snack stalls. Finally, I accidentally saw a stall with various pasta in front of a stall. Look at the spring rolls, the skin is thin and crispy, and the filling is fragrant and soft, which must be a unique flavor. Looking at the soup bun, it is full and shiny, as if it can be fried with juice with a light touch... Thinking of this, I saliva dripped and couldn't even walk.

The boss in front of the stall obviously showed us and asked us what we needed to eat. Hearing the question, the three of us looked at each other, and finally I said with difficulty: "Let's have some more dinner?" As soon as the words finished, the other two nodded repeatedly without hesitation. This left me speechless for a moment. Seeing that the two had already walked into the shed, I couldn't hold back the smile on my face and walked in quickly.

There are indeed a lot of food in Jiangnan, and there are countless dishes about pasta, not to mention various foods and pastries. When I returned to the inn, I staggered, my abdomen slightly raised, and my mouth was muttering, "Don't eat anymore, I'll be able to hold on." So, under the stunned expression of the shopkeeper waiting for the crowd, I returned to their respective rooms with peace of mind.

Perhaps because we had just finished our meal, the three of us were not in the mood to chat. After washing up, we said good night and turned back to the room to go to bed. However, we didn't know why we were too proud at night, so we woke up at the third day. It was already mid-autumn. It was still completely dark outside. We didn't think much about it, so we planned to lie down and sleep again. However, we tossed and turned for a long time and couldn't fall asleep. So we could only curse and sway and get up. After tossing and struggling several times, we really didn't feel sleepy.

I looked down slightly at the long underwear on my body, and thought for a moment. I quickly turned out a red-bottomed and black-edged veil from the bag and put it on the outside, and planned to go out for a walk. I was a little uncomfortable when I walked out. After all, I had never worn this color before, but because it was Sister Gan Yu's kindness, I reluctantly accepted it. So even if the material of this veil is considered high-quality and is particularly gentle and elegant on the naked-exposed skin, it is not a bit uncomfortable, but I always feel weird... I was confused for a moment, but I felt relieved. Anyway, no one saw it at night, so I didn't need to worry.

Just as I was about to walk forward to the only old crabapple tree in the yard to look at it, a strange noise suddenly came from behind me. I suddenly looked back and saw that Namo couldn't sleep, and she was wearing only a cassock. I was happy and quickly waved to him to come.

After that, we walked lazily around the courtyard. Just as Namo yawned and signaled to go back to the room for a while, I suddenly grabbed his hand and said sternly: "Nanmo, why don't you tell me the news of Shen Fuqing's death? I am a gentleman at least. It's fine if you restrain me and don't let me go out, but no matter what, I should still send him away."

Nan Wu paused and did not look back. His tone did not change at all. He sneered before speaking: "Actually, you know that how can a mortal live in over a hundred years? To put it bluntly, it's just that you don't care." I was stunned and subconsciously let go. Fortunately, Nan Wu was not aggressive anymore. Although his face turned around was a little sarcastic and indignant, he softened his tone: "Forget it, I won't argue with you more about this matter...but going down the mountain is of no use for you."

I was stunned: "Isn't Xiao Ge more dangerous than me?"

Namo smiled: "When Shu taught you the art of face-to-face on the first day, did he talk about such an iron rule - never want to spy on your future?" I nodded and vaguely guessed what he was going to say; indeed, he didn't keep it in mind. After seeing me nodding, he slowly smoothed out my clothes and said: "So you probably never paid attention to your own face... Your face is a premature death, with a strong spiritual energy on the mountain and isolated from the world. Where we can intentionally avoid the way of heaven and the underworld, but outside... even if I don't have the courage to compete with the way of heaven, we can discuss the way of heaven."
