devil may cry

Chapter 31. Monsters

With a pair of small peach blossom eyes, she said softly "Brother".

People are different.

Bei Mingyan was walking in the narrow corridor, and Ji Fengyin was leading the way with his hands behind his back.

Xue Luoqian would not walk like this.

Ji Fengyin and he have never looked back at him since they dug the hole. The hole is dark and damp, and the wind blows from nowhere, blowing away the corpse's smell, and it feels very bad.

Xue Luoqian would let himself tug at the corners of his clothes or cuffs, and would look back at him from time to time, his eyes could dispel the anxiety in his heart.

He felt a little uncomfortable and couldn't tell what it was.

It has been almost a month since we met at the inn, and it seems that he and Xue Luoqian have separated for the first time since this month.

I don't know if this discomfort is because Xue Luoqian is not around, or because of the bone flute in his arms.

Now, Ji Fengyin took him to find Nangong Houqing.

"About your younger brother, you should ask Nangong Houqing personally."

This is what he said, and he could take him to find someone: "Now that the Ji family is blocking the outside, he is still carrying a group of corpses. I'm afraid it's too late to evacuate."

Bei Mingyan asked: "Nangong Houqing has been underground all this time?"

The answer to this surprised Bei Mingyan: "He lives underground."

It's not that he didn't suspect Ji Fengyin, his origin and purpose are unclear, and it's not that he didn't know that this trip might be dangerous, but Ji Fengyin's affairs with his fourth brother are very precious, and the person who has been dead for several years can't live in peace, and he is repeatedly found out Old debts were used to restrain him, and he couldn't ignore them no matter what.

Above, Ji Fengyin had clearly told him: "When Nangong Houqing is found, Mr. Beiming will know everything, including me."

He is not afraid of danger, but because of seeing Ye Xiaoyun, his parents' inn and... Xue Luoqian again, some business sprouted, which made him suspicious.

There is also Xie Liang, and the bone flute, and there are many things that seem to be not simple, and he has not yet found Luo Qian's Fengshan...

Before I knew it, I already had too much concern.

He originally wanted to call Xue Luoqian to come down with him, but Ji Fengyin stopped him: "If you go to look for Leader Xue, I don't want it, he is currently interrogating prisoners."

He still wanted to say something, but Ji Fengyin's face turned cold: "I said he is not allowed to go with me."

Bei Mingyan had an intuition that he and Xue Luoqian were not friendly, and there were signs of it when they were in the wine cellar.

In any case, the soldiers will block the water and cover them with soil.

After returning to this underground passage, within a few hours, Ji's family took the innkeeper to search all over the place, and even the wine jars in the wine cellar were turned upside down.

When Ji Fengyin saw the mess in the wine cellar, he immediately became colder than before, and rushed over to look at each one: "Why waste food!!"

It turns out that you eat wine as a meal...

Bei Mingyan watched him jump up and down outside for a long time, and couldn't help saying: "Mr. Ji, be safe and don't be impatient!"

The whole wine cellar smelled of glutinous rice wine. Ji Fengyin jumped behind the vat and asked in a muffled voice, "Does Mr. Beiming like to drink?"

"do not love."

"Then you still drink so much?"

"you……?"

"Just blow you up." Ji Fengyin exposed his head from behind a wine vat, smiling with squinted eyes, "Wine is a good thing."

"Let's go when you've had enough fun." If the Ji family members who were drugged at the door woke up, or if Nangong Houqing ran away, neither would be good, especially the former...

"It's okay." Listening to the voice, he seemed to be drinking: "With me here, he can't run away."

"You come in."

He lay down beside a fairly complete wine tank, buried his head in it and drank heavily, and raised one hand to give Bei Mingyan a thumbs up.The hair is loose and scattered over the vat, black blended into one.

After a while, Ji Fengyin reluctantly left the wine vat, the tip of his nose and forehead were stained with wine, Bei Mingyan looked at it, but thought of Bei Mingchen for no reason.

"Your real name is Ji Fengyin?"

"Otherwise? I will never be Bei Mingchen."

"Your eyes resemble his."

Ji Fengyin lowered his head and shook the wet hair. Hearing this, his eyes turned cold, and he stared straight at him: "There are too many similar people."

Maybe he didn't like others to compare him to him, let alone a dead person, I heard that corpse guards are very taboo about this.

"I didn't mean that... sorry."

Bei Mingyan's words were waved away by Ji Fengyin: "Stop talking!" His expression was not very good.

There was a pile of round wooden barrels in the corner. Ji Fengyin drank a lot of wine but walked steadily. He pushed them away, and the wooden barrels rolled down to reveal an ordinary corner of the wall.

It's just that the corner of the wall is a little white.

Ji Fengyin kicked the corner twice, but there was no response. At the same time, he shook out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve, poured some golden yellow liquid from it, and poured it on the place where he kicked it. The wall actually liquefied, and after a while , and melted a small hole big enough for one person to get in.

I just took a shower last night, and I just changed into clean clothes after the shower.

It's not good where you live, but why do you want to live here?

Bei Mingyan let out a long sigh in his heart, and followed him into it.

You don't have to experience too much in one day, it's a cave and a cave.After the two entered through the small hole, the scene suddenly became brighter, and the long light burned quietly, illuminating the road ahead, all the way to the hall at the end.

The walls here are much more refined than those outside. The polished marble is not carved with murals, but traces of various spells, and some corpse acupuncture points, quite like a place for studying medicine.

There are also some blood paw prints, which are not surprising to both of them.

Walking into the hall, it was even more spacious, but it was much darker than the passage outside. The whole hall was as big as the post station above, but there were only four candles lit in the four corners, and there were It's almost burnt out.

There are about ten steps undulating all around, and there are four coffins placed on the low ground in the middle. Bei Mingyan recognized the square hexagram formation at a glance. The four dark coffins were opened and empty, and no one cared about them, and the other three closed them tightly.

Bei Mingyan looked around and said, "Nangong Houqing lives here?" Apart from the four candles, there were only four coffins.

"Yes."

Bei Mingyan took down a candle and walked to the open coffin. The inside of the coffin was lined with a piece of yellow brocade cloth, and there were traces of lying down.

Before he could figure out what to do with the other coffins, Ji Fengyin sat down on one of the coffins and patted the lid: "Nangong Houqing!"

No one answered, and he took more than a dozen shots, but nothing happened.

Suddenly, a hand stretched out from behind and grabbed him by the collar, and grabbed him off the coffin lid. Bei Mingyan quickly covered his mouth with the other hand, and the two hid behind the coffin. This hall is huge, with four corners. The candlelight does not reach the middle.Just squatting down, a face appeared in the darkness where the candlelight at the entrance of the corridor could not be found.

That face was different from what Ji Chaoxing had seen before, at least what Ji Chaoxing saw was a human face, but the one who came in was completely different.

A pair of cat eyes are wide open, a pincer-like mouth protrudes high from the face, like a horse and a spider, the hair is scattered behind the ears, a pair of eyes staring straight ahead, the whole thing is like the wind blowing in.

After that terrifying face floated in, what followed was not a body, to be precise, it was not a human body.

Eight legs, round body, is a spider.

A spider stronger and taller than Master Linqi.

The spider's footsteps were very small, so it seemed to float in, but when it was exposed to the weak candlelight, the two people hiding under the coffin realized that something was wrong with it. Something was wrong with his body too, a dead gray color.

It's a dead spider!

Bei Mingyan's heart turned cold when he saw it, not because he was frightened, but because he heard the slight movement just now, thinking that something in the open coffin had returned, and unconsciously thought in his heart, maybe it was Xue Luoqian I found it, but who knew that this thing came out...

This gap is somewhat large...

He slowly let go of Ji Fengyin, neither of them breathed out, looking at that thing, they just wanted to vomit, but for some reason they couldn't look away for a while.

The spider's eyes were frozen, and there was no part of its body that was not frozen. It was extremely weird, and it was still floating towards them.

Floating down the steps and past the outside of the coffin, it stopped for a while, then slowly retreated into the darkness...

Ji Fengyin raised his head, and seeing it disappearing, exhaled, and said, "Hey, what kind of monsters are Nangong Houqing raising!"

Bei Mingyan didn't answer him, but asked: "He has been living with that... just now?" What was that one called just now?He didn't know, he didn't even want to recall that appearance.

Ji Fengyin leaned against the coffin: "Otherwise?" And thoughtfully; "The lethality is good, how many people are scared to death just by the appearance?"

He seemed to think of something funny, and chuckled twice, at this moment, a dull voice suddenly sounded above his head, Ji Fengyin raised his head, and saw Bei Mingyan looking at him behind him, with his eyes wide open.

There was another "click" sound from the top of his head, and Ji Fengyin slowly turned his head, the spider's protruding jaw was no more than a palm away from the top of his head.

"Don't move!" Bei Mingyan yelled softly, the spider was still looking straight ahead, as if it didn't see the two people below.

Maybe its eyes can only see the place where it is looking up, and just now Bei Mingyan pulled Ji Fengyin to squat down, and the three of them were not in the same line.

Bei Mingyan moved his hand slightly, pointing out of the corridor, Ji Fengyin nodded, just about to move out step by step, the spider moved.

It wasn't the body that moved, it was the eyeballs that moved. The eyeballs that were looking straight ahead slowly moved down, and the two squatting came into view.

For a time, their eyes met.

On the Bronze Sparrow Terrace, the tent was blown up by the wind.

Xia Wushang carried a plate of blackened soup and walked up the steps, there was a bed inside the folded tent, on the bed lay a young boy, with the quilt pulled under his chin, sleeping sweetly.

Xia Wushang put the medicine on the table, sat beside the boy's bed, looked at his sleeping face for a while, and gently woke him up: "Wu Chen, get up and take the medicine."

If anyone in Nanxun Mansion saw his gentle look, they would be terrified, but after the boy woke up, he put his arms around Xia Wushang's neck, rubbed his eyes and said, "Brother?"

This elder brother has a nasal voice that just woke up, sweet and pleasant, this man looks very cute, like a boy, but judging from his body, he is at least seventeen or eighteen years old.

Xia Wushang patted his head: "Brother is back."

After rubbing his eyes, Xia Wuchen grinned, hugging Xia Wushang without letting go: "Brother, Wuchen misses you so much!"

He took the pure white flute pinned from his waist and handed it to the young man: "I came back late and missed your birthday."

"Forgive brother?"

Xia Wushen looked at the flute without moving his eyes, and said pleasantly, "Is it the sister Yue you mentioned earlier?"

"No, my brother encountered some troubles this time. This is sister Zhao."

"Sister Zhao..."

"It's Zhao Caiyu, the daughter of the Chief Escort of Zhongzhou Ping'an Escort Bureau."

Xia Wuchen caressed the bone flute carefully, pure and innocent: "I don't know... Anyway, my brother gave you good things. Then brother, you came back from Central Continent? Are you okay? What trouble did you encounter?"

"It's okay." Xia Wushang picked up the medicine bowl: "This time, the thin bones are not good. When my brother goes to Zhongzhou to attend the meeting in a few days, I will give you a set of martial bones."

"Really?"

"Really. There is also a small gift. As an apology for my brother's lateness, you drink the medicine first, and I will show it to you."

The black medicine exuded a fishy smell, Xia Wushen drank it all with a bitter face, and Baba waited for the gift.

A black-gold long sword was in front of his eyes, with intricate patterns, very beautiful, the sword was unsheathed, and the sword light was piercing.

Xia Wushang said: "This sword is named Fengshan."
