In fact, since I heard the story of Jiao Ling, the rumors of ghosts have gradually subsided.No one has ever seen that red creature that sounded disgusting, only Jiao Ling seemed to have a psychological shadow that night, and never went to the cafeteria again, but it cured his problem of wanting to eat at night .

But in my heart, I always feel that something is weird. Is it really only people who are dazzled or not clear-headed to see that kind of thing?But why do you see the same things?This kind of monster... I have never heard of it before. How consistent must everyone's brains be to imagine the same thing?

However, it is also possible that Jiao Ling spread the story, and then other people who saw it were influenced by his description, so they thought they saw the same thing.

Summer is getting closer, I was sitting under the sycamore tree in the yard to enjoy the cool and eat watermelon, when I saw someone outside the Tibetan Sword Pavilion poking his head.I squinted my eyes and took a closer look, isn't this Qiu Muxue?

So I jumped up, probably he only felt a flash before his eyes, and saw me falling in front of him.Qiu Muxue was taken aback, and explained nervously, "I... I just delivered things to the head teacher on behalf of Senior Brother Lantian... I lost my way..."

"Oh? You are really serious about being an idiot." I grinned at him, showing my white teeth, "Since you're here, why don't you come in for a cup of tea and say hello to Longyuan?"

He waved his hands again and again, "No need, no need..."

"Why are you shy? I've seen you come here twice before, don't hold back, just watch it if you want."

He pursed his lips and looked in with some worry, "He probably wouldn't want to see me..."

Ah, I can see why he's so nervous.The opportunity for Long Yuan and Qiu Mushuang to separate at the beginning was Qiu Muxue's own idea of ​​exchanging Long Yuan and his master for Jiuding Huanyang Pill, which caused a series of conflicts and misunderstandings.

Thinking about it, he felt very guilty.

I thought about it, and said with a hammer, "How about this, let me take you to take a peek through the window?"

He was taken aback, "I won't be discovered..."

"As long as you don't bark, you won't find out~"

So I took him into the yard, and two sword spirits who were exercising to lose weight looked over, I made a "shh" gesture at them, and then led him along the veranda to a slightly open window , let him look in.

From this position, you can just see the lotus sword platform where Long Yuan is locked.At this time, Long Yuan was sleeping in the body as usual, without any sound.Qiu Muxue watched quietly for a while, and a little tear came out of her eyes.He turned his face, eyes red, and walked out of the yard quickly.I followed behind him and asked, "Hey? What's the matter, why are you crying all of a sudden?" "He doesn't look the same as before..."

I scratched my head, "What's the difference? Why do I feel the same all the time?"

Qiu Muxue shook his head, "He looked at me growing up... He used to be more eye-catching than now, and his sword aura was more compelling..." I probably understood what he was talking about.I still remember the first time I saw Long Yuan, his whole body was covered with a layer of light and clear light like clear water and clear sky, but now, this light has gradually disappeared.

Probably when he saw him in the ruins of Jijian Ridge, he had already lost that radiance.

"Longyuan is different from other swords...your brother is his first master, and he has a stubborn and decisive character. After changing masters, how can he still be as dazzling as before?" I touched Qiu Mu Xue's head turned black with one hand...

Why doesn't this kid buy some good-quality hair dye? It's a pity that he has gray hair...

Qiu Muxue blinked her eyes hard, swallowing back her tears, "Does Master Jixuan treat him well?"

I nodded, "Our master thinks highly of him, and now uses him more than me. Don't worry..."

Having said that, why is my heart still so uncomfortable...

Qiu Muxue nodded sensibly, and smiled at me, "Thank you...Senior Brother Yajiu..."

Because of this incident, the relationship between Qiu Muxue and me has become better and better.Sometimes I go down the mountain with Lantian to buy, and occasionally I even know to bring some good wine back to honor me.As for me, I also took time to guide and guide.Although I don't know much about the art of spells, I still know a lot about the art of controlling the sword and the cultivation of inner alchemy and nascent souls. After all, I have been with the master for so many years.

Qiu Muxue had a good background, but once I gave him a little treatment, his progress became even faster. Lan Tian was very surprised, but he paid more attention to him.

One night I wanted to ask him to go drink in Qingxing Village at the foot of the mountain, only to find that he was still practicing swords with Lan Tian by the Qingxue Lake.A circle of willow trees surrounding the lake is like a beautiful woman's hair hanging down in the night, hiding two dancing figures.The two long swords rolled out sparks in the air, and two pairs of eyes, one quiet and the other clear, were reflected in the light of the swords.

With a clanging sound, the two figures separated suddenly and withdrew their sword momentum.Lan Tian looked at Qiu Muxue with a soft smile on his face, "That's right, I've made great progress."

And Qiu Muxue was as happy as a fool, as if Lan Tian had won a big prize if he praised him.

No wonder this family has been coming to me all day long to make a fuss with me. It's just to make my senior brother happy... Hey... In vain, I thought he wanted to recognize me as a big brother...

Shi Shiran walked towards them with my hands behind my back, "What are you two doing in this dark place?"

When Lan Tian saw it was me, he raised his hands respectfully, "Senior Brother Yajiu, why are you here?"

"I'm here to find Xiaoxue to drink. You don't know, this family will come to me all day long to please you and let me cook for him. He promised to treat me to Qingxing Village's daughter red~"

Lan Tian let out a surprise, while Qiu Muxue's face turned red, "I didn't! I just want to practice more!"

Probably because she was afraid that I would say something that would reveal the secret, Qiu Muxue said goodbye to Lan Tian and hurriedly dragged me away.

I teased him all the way until we reached a courtyard near the mountain gate, when we suddenly heard a scream.

At this time, the night was getting dark, and most of the disciples went to bed very early because they woke up very early in the morning.The trees are silent, not even the sound of insects.This scream suddenly tore through the silence of the long night, and I shivered in fright.

Qiu Muxue and I looked at each other, and quickly jumped into the courtyard wall.If I remember correctly, this courtyard is full of people, but as soon as we entered the courtyard, we felt that it was too quiet, so quiet that it looked like an empty and abandoned house.

Shadows spread under the eaves, and there was no wind.The air seemed stagnant.

It stands to reason that the screams just now were so piercing, the sleeping person should have been woken up long ago, right?Why is there no movement at all?

In the dark corridor, the doors and windows were closed tightly, and there was no light. It was difficult for us to determine where the screams came from, so we could only search quickly along the corridor.However, when Qiu Muxue first stepped into the vertical flower gate of the second entrance courtyard, his body froze obviously.

"What's the matter?" I asked as I walked to him, and then I felt a dark wind blowing from the back of my neck, quietly spreading down my back, and my whole body went numb...

The second courtyard is as dead silent as the first courtyard, with shadows cast by the eaves everywhere.All the doors and windows were closed, except for the door of the main house, which quietly opened a sinister gap.

In addition, there is something crawling in the yard.

The whole body of that thing is black... No... It's not black, but blood red soaked by the night...

It twisted and crawled on the ground, it seemed to be in the shape of a human, but its hands and feet were bent in some extremely weird way to an unbelievable direction.His arms were bumpy and dripping with sticky liquid, his claw-like hands stretched out in our direction with all their might, and that face... that blood-red face that seemed to be melting... had a pair of moving eyes on it. Human-like eyes, but not covered by eyelids... Its huge mouth opened little by little, and the bigger it opened, it made a strange sound of "cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck".

Wipe-wipe-wipe-

The rustling sound was his wriggling, boneless body crawling towards us.Behind him, there was a long trail of blood, leading all the way to the slightly opened door...

Although I have heard Jiao Ling describe it long ago, but now I see it with my own eyes, the visual impact is still too great... My whole body seems to be caught by a big hand of fear, and I even forget to breathe...

What it is……

"Ghost!" Qiu Muxue yelled suddenly, raised her sword, closed her eyes and rushed out.I was woken up by his shock, and I rushed forward and grabbed his collar.At this moment, we were getting closer to the ghost, and our eyes met for a moment.I was shocked all of a sudden.

I always feel... those eyes without eyelids were full of panic and pleading when they looked at me just now.

I pressed Qiu Mushuang's hand that was waving the sword wildly, and said in a low voice, "Calm down first!"

After being yelled at by me, he calmed down a little, and his eyelids opened a crack.At this time, the monster was no longer crawling. Enduring the feeling of wanting to vomit, I squatted down at a place walking away from it and looked at it carefully.

Its mouth opened and closed, as if it wanted to say something, but it couldn't come out, and it was panting quickly, as if it was dying.

I looked into those eyes and suddenly understood what it was!

There was a bang in my head, I opened my mouth, but no sound came out.

It's not a monster, it's not a ghost...

That's human!

Skinned people! !

I held Qiu Muxue tightly, opened my mouth a few times, and finally found the voice, "Go... find someone!"

Qiu Muxue was still in shock, "Huh?"

I grabbed his shoulders hard, "Go and call Lan Tian and ask him to bring some immortal medicine, the kind that can renew his life!"

"But……"

"Hurry up! This man is dying!"

Qiu Muxue's eyes were as wide as Tongling's, and she mustered up her courage to look at the blood-red figure on the ground again, and suddenly understood something.He turned around and ran out like flying.

I dare not leave hastily.This person must be a disciple of Shushan. I don't know who did such a cruel and terrifying thing to him, and the murderer... probably still exists now!

"Can you talk? Who are you?" I leaned closer to him, my nose filled with the stench and sticky smell of pork that had just been slaughtered.The criss-crossing blood vessels and muscles on his face were clearly visible, and the blood dripped and dripped under his body.

He was on the verge of dying, with more air out than inhale, but he was still struggling, and he used his breath to spit out two words: "Duan... Lu."

Duan Lu?I did recognize him... He was originally the master's disciple!

"What happened! Who did this to you?!"

However, he couldn't answer anymore, his head collapsed suddenly, and his whole body suddenly lost the support of strength, and he collapsed on the ground, like a fuzzy mass of red meat...

he died……

I couldn't speak for a while, my mind was in a mess.I yelled a few times, "Come here!" But the yard was still quiet, without a trace of human voice.

What's going on... I have to let the master know...

I flapped my wings and went straight to Nanting Peak.The face of Duan Lu came to my mind over and over again, and my stomach was overwhelmed.

How could this be... Could it be that the red monsters Jiao Ling and the others saw before were all... skinned disciples?

But if so, there should be a body found, or at least someone missing.Why has it been so long, no one has noticed anything unusual?

I rushed straight into the master's bedroom.He didn't sleep, but settled down on the couch.Hearing the sound, he slowly opened his eyes.

Out of breath, I shouted at him, "Duan Lu is dead!!"

The master frowned slightly, "What?"

I will briefly describe what I have just seen.The master was dubious, and followed me to fly down Nanting Peak and enter the courtyard.

At this moment, the courtyard was no longer as dead and silent as before.Qiu Muxue brought Lan Tian, ​​Gui Sheng and the others were also there, and the disciples who lived in the yard were also woken up and came out of the house one after another.I ran all the way, rushed into the second courtyard, and then froze.

The blood-red corpse lying on the ground was gone, and even the blood was completely gone, as if nothing had ever existed.

The master raised his eyebrows slightly, "Where's the corpse you mentioned?"

I was stunned for a while, and asked Qiu Muxue, "What's going on?"

Qiu Muxue was also stunned and shook her head.

Could it be... that murderer took Duan Lu's body away while I was away?

"He was really here just now, if you don't believe me, go and see the room..."

Just as he was speaking, the door of the main room opened, and two or three disciples came out with sleepy eyes.And when I saw the leader, I felt as if I had been hit hard on the head...

Because the yawning person...is Duan Lu...

Duan Lu is safe and sound.
