My nemesis, he teases me every day

Hua Xujing and Ru Yanjun simply packed up their things, tied up their horses outside the city, and prepared to go into the city to find some psycho who "said he was going to walk sideways yesterday, but was captured by a monster today".

Hua Xujing put away the polished dagger and stuck it horizontally in the leather belt around his waist. Before leaving, he couldn't help asking: "Are you sure, he was really taken away?"

In any case, he didn't think Xie Fengqiu was someone who could be captured silently. With that person's cultivation and temperament, even if he was captured, he would be able to make a big splash, and it was impossible for him to remain silent.However, Ru Yanjun swore firmly: "No mistake, there must be something silently spying on us!"

He told Hua Xujing about the "illusion" from last night again. Hua Xu turned his head, glanced at the shadow at his feet, stared at each other for two seconds, then turned his head and said, "Let's go."

The two of them stopped hesitating and walked straight into the city.

Liucheng has been abandoned for many years, and the city gate has long been a decoration. It is crooked and tattered across the entrance. white mist.

Ru Yanjun said: "With such a thick fog, it seems that today is a sunny day...but it's a little scary."

On both sides of the street, there are many shops covered with cobwebs. The doors are wide open without any scruples. It is unfathomable at a glance. The darkness seems to hide monsters with teeth and claws, and they will roar and rush out in the next second.

Ru Yanjuan was new to the rivers and lakes, he thought he was quite courageous, but in this city, the atmosphere is too dark.After coming in for only a moment, he only felt a chill down his back.

"Major General, where do we find it? This city is so big, we can't turn it over inch by inch..." He stood next to Hua Xujing, talking as he walked. Hua Xujing suddenly stopped in his tracks, and made a "shh" gesture to him.

"..." Ru Yanjuan's heart rose to her throat in an instant, cold sweat broke out, and she didn't dare to ask, but her whole body was stretched into an iron plate, and she looked around nervously.

Hua Xujing looked left and right, his eyes swept across the gaps between the walls, his thin lips were pursed into a thin line, and his hands went around behind him to give Ru Yanjun a few gestures.

...Ru Yanjun didn't understand.

He didn't realize it until after the beating, and glanced back at him, uttering a few words with regret on his expressionless face: "Ah, it's you..."

Ru Yanjun's face was full of question marks, who else could it be if it wasn't me?Is your old man living in a dream?

After Hua Xujing finished speaking, he turned his head away, and continued to patrol the shadows in the cracks of the wall. He was not in a hurry, nor nervous, as if he was fighting a psychological battle with someone. He occasionally took a few steps tentatively, and his eyes would stay in a corner for a while. .Only the eyeballs of Ru Yanjun's body could move, following his movements around, and seeing him stop, she subconsciously looked where he was looking.

The eyes of two people coincidentally fell on a shadow in the corner. For people with poor psychological quality, this is a very frustrating thing. No matter how calm you are, your subconscious mind will always be Whisper in your ear—you're about to be found out.

Under normal circumstances, those who are hiding will show some flaws at this time.

Sure enough, after a moment of silence, a thin black figure rushed out from the shadows, and ran into the alley without looking up!

Ru Yanjun was startled instinctively, before she had time to take a deep breath, Hua Xujing's figure flashed in her sight, and she chased after the man, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Ru Yanjun: "..."

He looked left and right, pondered for a moment, then walked to the feng shui treasure spot where the little skinny man who escaped earlier was hiding, and squatted down.

Not to mention, this place is really nice, sheltered from the wind and rain, with walls on both sides, you can't see anything creepy except for the mottled walls when you look up, Ru Yanjun took a good look and settled down with peace of mind.

As time passed, the sun gradually emerged from the clouds, and the warm temperature poured down with the sky. The fog in the city cleared up, but there were still some shadowy white gauzes in the distance. You Yan Jun poked her head to look, then retracted her head, how about this is a treasure land of geomantic omen, warm in winter and cool in summer, when the sun comes out, it can still block the light, two high walls just block out the place where Ru Yanjun is staying Shadow, he sat cross-legged for a while, almost lost in thought.

After a while, the sound of footsteps suddenly came from the end of the street.

Ru Yanjuan was startled at first, but then she came to her senses, and cautiously leaned out from the wall a little bit, seeing his family's young general looking normal, with a black shadow in his hand, striding towards this side, heartbroken. Next happy, he hurriedly stood up against the edge of the wall, "Major General!"

After sitting cross-legged for a long time, her legs were a little numb, Ru Yanjun limped out while supporting the wall, Hua Xu Jing was stunned for a moment, "...are you limping?"

Ru Yanjun moved her ankles, feeling that the antsy feeling gradually faded away, and said: "No, my feet are numb."

The black shadow that was carried by Hua Xujing fluttered at the right time, broke free from the clutches, and was about to run away. After running for two steps, Hua Xujing grabbed the back collar and caught him back.

"..."

It was only then that Ru Yanjun saw clearly that the little black and thin man was actually a little beggar in his early twelve or thirteen years old.

In a place like Liucheng, it is impossible to be a beggar. The child is skinny and skinny, his body is dirty, his cheeks are deeply sunken, and a pair of black and white eyes are embedded in the eye sockets, which is extremely abrupt.

He couldn't bear it a bit: "Major General, don't be so cruel, you put him down and let him take a breath, you can see that he is about to suffocate..."

The little beggar cooperated very well, and immediately showed a collapsed appearance with shortness of breath and red face.

Hua Xujing didn't have any objections, and let him go as soon as he let go.

"...Don't run." The little beggar's feet froze in mid-air, and it was Ru Yanjun who spoke out, and he sincerely persuaded: "If you run again, our major general may not have the patience to lift your collar. , he will simply break your hands and feet, you know, in order to live, one has to learn to endure humiliation, life is priceless."

The little beggar froze for a while, then turned around slowly, his eyes filled with tears on his dark face.

Ru Yanjun was relieved when she saw that he had stopped making noise. She turned her head and lowered her voice, and asked Hua Xujing, "Major General, what are you arresting him for? Is there something wrong?"

"No." Hua Xujing replied upright, "Does he look like the magic bone we are looking for?"

"..." Ru Yanjun turned her head, looked at the other party carefully several times, and then turned her head and said sincerely: "I don't think so."

"why?"

"...he's so embarrassing."

Hua Xujing let out a "tsk", frowned, and said unhappily, "Why do you judge people by their appearance?"

"..."

After the major general finished speaking, he tilted his head to look at the little beggar for a while, and nodded in agreement: "I don't think so either."

"..." Ru Yanjun felt that Xie Fengqiu was sick yesterday, but now he thinks that both of them are sick!He took two deep breaths and asked, "Then let him go?"

The little beggar's eyes lit up when he heard these words, and Hua Xujing met his gaze through Ru Yanjun, "...let's go."

After thinking for a while, he reached out and took out two white steamed buns, and handed them indifferently, "Take it."

Shocked by his reign of terror, the little beggar dared not accept it.

Ru Yanjun took the steamed bun, tried her best to make a soft voice, coaxed for a while, the little beggar hesitated to take it, turned around and ran away.

Ru Yanjun couldn't help nagging: "Major General, I didn't mean you. Is the magic bone just a cabbage on the street, can you pick it up casually? Don't think everyone is like a magic bone, sober up..."

Hua Xujing picked up a stick from the ground, "Let's go."

Ru Yanjun was interrupted by him, subconsciously asked: "Where are you going?"

"I don't know, where are people going?"

Ru Yanjun didn't understand what the route was, "Major General, can you find Brother Qiu if you find the place where the crowd gathers?"

Hua Xujing frowned, "Why are you looking for him?"

Ru Yanjun: "..."

"Demon bones." Hua Xujing met his big confused eyes, and explained a few words patiently: "This city is only this big, find out all the living people, take away suspicious people, and evacuate if there are no suspicious people." .”

"Then, what about Brother Qiu?"

Hua Xujing waved his hand, and said ruthlessly, "Don't worry about him, he won't die."

Ru Yanjun was silent for a moment.

You two are really close friends!

Hua Xujing thumped the wooden stick twice in his palm, feeling that it was hard enough, and was about to walk forward when Ru Yanjun behind him suddenly grabbed his sleeve.

His temples twitched, and he turned his head impatiently, only to see Ru Yanjun staring at the alley without blinking, pointing at the beggar friend who hadn't reached the end of the alley, "The shadow... moved .”

The sun poured down, and the high wall of the alley cast a wide black shadow. The little beggar walked along the base of the wall, most of his body was hidden in the darkness. Where he walked, the sticky darkness suddenly squirmed twice , slowly a small bag protruded from behind him, as if something sharp was about to break through the darkness and grab the little beggar!

"Be careful--"

Before Ru Yanjun could finish his sentence, Hua Xujing blew past him like the wind again, and the fabric of his sleeves ran across his palm like water, leaving only a slight tingling sensation. The next moment, the major general had appeared in front of him After entering the depths of the alley, the little beggar didn't notice it, and even walked faster and faster. When he reached a certain place, he suddenly turned a corner and went straight out of sight of the two of them!

Hua Xujing chased after the figure at the corner without hesitation, but after a while, Ru Yanjun was the only one left on the empty street.

He gritted his teeth, took a step, and rushed to the depths of the alley!
