When the enemy became my master

During the trip to Yufeng City, they didn't use the blue luan again. After all, Qin Jie is the only one who can tame beasts, and Qin Jie has injuries on his body now, so Chi Qingmo won't watch him toss around with his wounds.So the three of them took the Yunxing ship of Zhenyuan Palace in Northern Qing Dynasty, and when they arrived near Jiu'an City, they left the Yunxing ship and walked with their swords, and flew to Yufeng City.

They set off around noon, and when they arrived outside Yufeng City, it was already dark, but tonight the full moon was cloudless, and the ground as it shone seemed to be covered with a layer of silver frost, making it extraordinarily bright.

The ban that Qin Jie's parents put down with their lives still exists, and Yufeng City is still in a closed state.Because countless living corpses of people and monsters were imprisoned in the city, the hostile aura was soaring, and the evil aura of Yufeng City could be felt from ten miles away.

Xiaocang hid in Qin Jie's lapel, stuck his head out to look around at this time, but it was rare that there was no noise - all around him were familiar scenes.

It is said that the closeness to the hometown is timid, let alone Qin Jie's situation, but I don't know if he is really underestimated or if he hides it better, but there is no clue on his face, his expression is normal, and he tugged on Chi Qingmo's sleeve after landing , said calmly, "Yufeng City is the place where I grew up, after all, you follow me."

Chi Qingmo pulled his sleeve out of Qin Jie's hands calmly, "Let's talk about keeping your eyes clean."

Qin Jie: ...

He wouldn't get lost in this place with his eyes closed.

Chi Qingmo took out the Nine Tripod Burning Demon Lamp that Xuan Wenxue lent him, and lit the magic weapon in the shape of a glazed tower with the technique that Xuan Wenxue gave him, and a purple aura appeared leisurely. The aura of the Eight Dao Talismans circulated.

"You can't see with your eyes, let Xiao Cang take you some."

Qin Jie: ...

Is this still angry because of the mark on the neck and the rubbing before?

Xiao Cang didn't hear Chi Qingmo's words at all, it was just staring at the half stump not far away, the stump looked like it had been cut off and lit a fire again, its torso was scorched black .But what is surprising is that new strips have been drawn from its roots.

That tree was burned by Xiao Cang, just two days before the accident in Yufeng City, because there was a monster that he didn't like standing on the tree.

At this time, it looked at the fresh and tender branches and felt uncomfortable for no reason-it was used to being wanton in the weekdays, and had never delved into human emotions. It feels uncomfortable, it just feels sad to watch.

After all, it is familiar with the sights everywhere after approaching Yufeng City, except here, where the tree it burnt grows new shoots, but before today, it has no way of knowing this, the more it is surprised at the subtleties The more the changes affect people's hearts, the feeling is as if ordinary people suddenly turned over the old things of relatives who have been dead for many years.

At this time, Qin Jie noticed Xiao Cang's strange quietness, so he raised his hand and touched its head with his fingertips.

Chi Qingmo took out a small sapphire porcelain bottle from his bosom, poured out three pills, took one by himself, and handed over the rest to Qin Jie and Xiao Cang.This elixir was bought in Xingluozhai, it has the effect of restraining the vitality of living things, and supplemented with the Jiuding Burning Demon Lamp, it should allow them to avoid many unnecessary troubles in the city.

Afterwards, Chi Qingmo used the magic weapon prepared in Xingluozhai in advance to open a small reversible gap in the restriction of Yufeng City, and entered the city through this small gap, after entering, he sealed the gap again—— There are too many living corpses sealed in Yufeng City, if they are released, the surrounding towns are afraid that they will be wiped out.

Standing in the night wind in the city, Qin Jie's expression changed for the first time, he smiled not so obviously, but the smile never fell on his heart.

The place that I couldn't go back to that night no matter what, but now it's easy to get in, with almost no obstacles-it's so ironic that it makes people laugh.

The natural moat that was difficult to overcome when you were young may only need to take one easy step when you are an adult.When I am at a different height and look back at the past, I will feel that my previous self is inexplicably pathetic.

At this time, a two-headed crow stopped on a branch, tilting its head and staring at them.

The two-headed crow rotted extremely badly, a large area of ​​feathers and flesh and blood fell off, and even lost one eyeball, and the remaining eyeball was an ominous blood-red color, but even though it had become like this, the beak and the The claws are still very sharp.

It stood there quietly and didn't make much movement. When Xiao Cang found it, his heart skipped a beat. He was almost scared out of his wits. He subconsciously wanted to fly over and burn this scary thing. Fortunately, he was caught by Qin Jie in time. Hold it down.

Qin Jie walked quickly because of the sadness, at this time he grabbed Xiao Cang and patted his hair with a smile, comforting him, "Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh daddy is here."

The two-headed crow's eyes were cloudy, and he stared at them for a while, probably because he couldn't feel the breath of life on them, so he flapped his wings crookedly and flew away in the end - a lot of its wing feathers had fallen off, There is simply no way to keep your balance.

Xiao Cang yelled "quack" in the palm of Qin Jie's palm twice, turned around and gave Qin Jie a look of sparks, struggled and ran to Chi Qingmo's shoulder, "You're afraid! Let go, quack!" ah--"

When this double-headed crow was alive, Xiao Cang was really not afraid, but now its feathers have lost most of its flesh and blood, and Xiao Cang is also a bird. Seeing each other like this can't help but feel creepy, but he is ashamed Admittedly, at this time, it was natural to run over Chi Qingmo's shoulders.

At this time, I feel that Chi Qingmo is good, can be reliable and talk less, and never exposes others casually.

Qin Jie was helpless, thinking, if you have a mother, you will forget about your father's things!

Qin Jie let go of this unfilial son, and instead planned to lead the way for Chi Qingmo, but Chi Qingmo set off before him, looking as if he knew the way from the beginning, I'm afraid at first glance others would think that this place is his home.

Chi Qingmo: "Follow me, don't leave the range of the Burning Demon Lamp."

Qin Jie raised his eyebrows, and thought carefully, so he simply reached out and grabbed Chi Qingmo's sleeve.

Chi Qingmo glanced sideways at Qin Jie, originally thinking that Qin Jie would grab him if he had something to say to him, but who knew that after waiting for a while, Qin Jie said seriously, "Scared."

Chi Qingmo: ...

Chi Qingmo: "I can't see that you are afraid."

Qin Jie adjusted his expression and tried to look scared, "Scared."

Xiao Cang looked at Qin Jie, then at Chi Qingmo, and under the balance of the two, flew from Chi Qingmo's shoulder back to Qin Jie's shoulder to find a place, "Dogs are really useless! Don't be afraid, young master here I am!"

Qin Jie: ...

Chi Qingmo's expression moved slightly, and his tone became more relaxed, "You still want to let go?"

Qin Jie let go, grabbed Xiaocang on his shoulder and held it in his hand, "looked" at it with a lot of meaning and said, "You are really a big boy."

Xiao Cang: "Gah—you're welcome."

Qin Jie and Chi Qingmo walked side by side, Qin Jie grabbed Xiaocang and rubbed its fire feathers, then brought the topic back, "Someone seems to have been in this city."

Although Qin Jie couldn't see anything, he could sense the fluctuations of the surrounding spiritual power. There was still spiritual power left on the wound where the skin and flesh of the two-headed crow fell off just now—the wound was punched out by someone, but it should be the nearest However, the residual spiritual power from a year ago cannot be preserved now.

Chi Qingmo said: "Perhaps there are thieves in the city. Your Yufeng City used to be the first cultivator of beasts. After all, you have a few magic weapons that you can get. It’s normal to take risks for it.”

Qin Jie raised his eyebrows.

In fact, there is another possibility that Chi Qingmo didn't mention, the living corpses are everywhere in Yufeng City, which is always a disaster.If one day the ban is broken, the consequences will be disastrous, and so many towns around will naturally know this.If they want to be safe, they need to find a solution once and for all.

Presumably, in the past year or so, many monks from nearby towns have come in to seek a way to exterminate the living corpses in Yufeng City—of course, these people would not consider collecting the corpses of Qin Jie's parents when planning these things Buried or something, presumably they plan to clean up together.

At this time, a gust of wind chimes suddenly came from not far away, and the two of them had already arrived at a street in the city. Qin Jie knew where they were after hearing the sound.

Qin Jie smiled: "You really didn't go the wrong way, little master, have you been here before?"

Chi Qingmo didn't answer the call.

Qin Jie turned his head suspiciously, "Little Master?"

Only then did Chi Qingmo reply: "I've been here, a long time ago."

Qin Jie was a little surprised, "You really came here? When, how old were you at that time, and what did you come for? I used to take Xiao Cang to tease cats and dogs on the street, haven't you met me?"

Qin Jie seemed to have suddenly discovered a possibility, and asked all the way.Maybe he and Chi Qingmo met many years ago. If there is such an extra paragraph, how could it be worthy of the words "fate and destiny", right?

But Chi Qingmo really didn't want to answer this question, he just looked up at the desolate street.

There were no "people" on the street, and I vaguely saw a few living corpses on the corner of the street, but they didn't pay attention to Chi Qingmo and the others, but wandered around. Weeds grew, sparrows turned into corpses on the branches, and a dog turned into corpses staggered along the side of the road.

Chi Qingmo had indeed been here before, but not in this life.

When he brought Qin Jie’s ashes here in his previous life, the place was even more dilapidated than it is now. At that time, more than 100 years had passed, and many houses had rotted beams or were hollowed out and collapsed. Yes, there are trees growing out of the house, and even the living corpses can't survive a hundred years, and many of them are rotten to the point of becoming skeletons.

At that time, holding the sword in one hand and holding Qin Jie's ashes in the other, he walked all over the streets and alleys here.

In the end, he helped Qin Jie's parents collect the bones and buried them in one place.

Qin Jie: "Didn't you see me then? - Could it be so small, I was locked in a small dark room by my mother when you came? How long did you stay in Yufeng City at that time?"

Chi Qingmo: "Three days."

Qin Jie sighed, "Three days? It's too short. If I'm locked up, I really won't be able to meet you. It's a pity. It would be great if I could get to know you sooner."

Qin Jie pointed it to Chi Qingmo based on his memory, "Let me tell you, there used to be a pancake stall at that location. The cakes are quite fragrant. There, I can't see and I don't know if I'm pointing in the right direction. Anyway, there is a shop owner who is very fierce there, a person who has never practiced, but has used brute force to fight. A monster died..."

Chi Qingmo listened quietly. When he passed by here in his previous life, no one told him this.

Qin Jie is also willing to share his life with Chi Qingmo, the happy part of his life.Therefore, there are a lot of his "glorious" experiences in his childhood, such as helping others catch monsters but accidentally demolishing other people's shops, and then being beaten up by his own mother; Then my father came forward and paid half the repair fee for the street.

"As for the place where the wine flag was picked, his family's Peach Blossom Drunk is a must. You must have never tasted it last time you came here. It's a pity..."

Having said that, Qin Jie paused, "Wait, little master seems to have a chance to try this thing."

The wine is Yujiuyuxiang, and there will be no problem after a year or so. Now digging in the backyard of the restaurant will definitely dig out a few jars.

Qin Jie tilted his head: "How is your drinking capacity, little master?"
