The ones who reacted more than Wu Xingxue were Ning Huaishan and Fang Chu.
At that time, they lifted the felt curtain and were about to get out of the carriage, when they heard Xiao Fuxuan's words "Jiaojie", their heads were full of question marks, and one foot was empty——
Hearing two muffled thumps, the two little devils almost threw a dog and gnawed at the mud in front of their own devil's cave.
Ning Huaishan grabbed the car door and stopped stumbling. After a while, he pushed aside the felt curtain and stretched his head in: "...Why do you know?!"
His eyes were already big, but now his eyeballs almost fell out, and he stared at Xiao Fuxuan in disbelief without blinking.
After a while, Fang Chu's head also came in, frowning equally confused: "How does Tiansu know the term 'Jieji'?!"
Doctor Wusheng next to him questioned: "Jiji period? What does robbery period mean? It's the first time I've heard of it today."
Ning Huaishan immediately said to him: "Isn't that nonsense! Can you hear about this matter at will?"
Doctor Wusheng: "?"
The demons under the robbery period will be taken advantage of by others if they are not careful. Therefore, the demons and demons in Zhaoye City know each other well, and they will cover up in every possible way when they leave the city. No demon would let outsiders, especially those in the Immortal Sect, know this, and that would be self-exposing.
What's more, the word "robbery period" is also said by the devils themselves. They think that the soul-devouring body is a robbery, so they use this name. If the people in Xianmen know about it, I am afraid they will only applaud with their palms, calling this "retribution".
They asked, nothing else, Wu Xingxue at least heard a little - the word "robbery period" should not have come out of Xiao Fuxuan's mouth.
As for why he knew...
That's a really good question.
Wu Xingxue grabbed the felt blanket and recalled the vague fragments in the dream, especially the ambiguous tone of Sang Yu when he mentioned "Tian Su Shang Xian" to him...
In short, the carriage could not hold him any longer.
But the two two hundred and five are still babbling: "It shouldn't be, Tiansu you... How did you know about it? Has anyone leaked it?"
Xiao Fuxuan didn't answer them immediately, but opened the felt door curtain with his sword, turned his head and said to Wu Xingxue, "Get out of the car."
Wu Xingxue glanced at him, lifted the thick blanket, and walked towards the car door.
He lowered his head to let Xiao Fuxuan hold the sword against the door curtain and was about to get out of the car.
In the corner of the light, Xiao Fuxuan glanced at him, and suddenly answered the question that Ning Huaishan and Fang Chu had been asking for a while.
With his deep voice close at hand, he said, "Just know."
Wu Xingxue's heart skipped a beat.
Then the voice sounded again: "Put on the cloak."
Ning Huaishan and Fang Chu: "?"
He suddenly said such a sentence again, without a name or a surname, which made everyone stunned. After a while, the two realized that this sentence was for their city lord.
Um………………
Ning Huaishan and Fang Chu originally wanted to say something else, but now they are suddenly speechless.
Seeing their city lord move, he glanced at Xiao Fuxuan inexplicably, and finally turned his head back to the car.
Yi Wusheng took out the big cloak in the car and handed it over, saying, "I don't know what the robbery period means, but since the body is cold, it's better to wear more. Maybe... if you don't mind, you can describe it. How do you feel about the robbery period, and how to suppress it. I will not say anything else, I have brought a lot of various medicinal herbs, and maybe they can be used."
"..."
After saying this, there was an instant silence in the carriage, and the needle drop could be heard.
Doctor Wusheng was stunned for a moment, and his face was puzzled: "What's wrong?"
Ning Huaishan and Fang Chu silently turned their faces away, not daring to interrupt at this time. They tacitly avoided for a moment, and suddenly realized a problem——
Tiansu Shangxian Xiao Fuxuan was as silent as them.
Of course, Tiansu cherishes words like gold, and does not like to speak. But at that moment, they were subtly aware that Tiansu Shangxian's reaction was not the normal silence, but similar to them, a bit ineffable.
It was as if he not only knew what the robbery period was, but also how the robbery period would react and how to suppress it.
Um? ? ? ?
Ning Huaishan and Fang Chu looked at each other.
However, before they could think about it, they heard their city lord say: "To be honest, I don't remember the robbery period at all. I don't need medicine pills, I don't like to eat them. Mr. kindly accepted them."
After speaking, Wu Xingxue got off the carriage wearing a cloak, almost in a hurry.
Ning Huaishan and Fang Chu hurried over and whispered to him: "City Lord, it's too strange, the immortal Su seemed to know everything that day, even how to suppress the robbery—"
Before they finished speaking, they heard the city lord say in a very soft and quiet voice: "Shut up you guys."
The two of them were most afraid of hearing this tone, their scalps numb, and they pursed their lips.
Wu Xingxue finally came clean for a moment.
The cold wind at night swept across the face with the moisture of the rain, and it swept the ear cold. It was only then that Wu Xingxue realized that he was in the carriage just now, and there was a bit of warmth on the side of his ears and neck.
There was a soft sound of swords behind him, and Xiao Fuxuan also got off the carriage.
When Wu Xingxue swept his surroundings, he glanced over and saw Xiao Fuxuan standing by the carriage a few steps behind. He glanced here, but did not intend to come over.
"Hey...where are there so many people at the station?" Ning Huaishan suddenly asked in confusion.
"Huh?" Wu Xingxue turned to look.
Where their carriages were parked was a hooded hitch. Not far behind should be the entrance of Zhaoye City.
There was a towering tower staring at him, and there was a minaret on each side. There seemed to be a bell hanging on the edge of the tower, swinging in the cold wind, and the sound of the bell came through the fog and rain.
In the middle of the high wall is a black iron gate. There are dozens of blue lamps on the left and right of the gate, and the heights are scattered.
At first, Wu Xingxue thought it was a lantern hanging on the wall. After watching it for a while, I realized that it was a ghost fire hanging in the fog and rain.
In the gap between the ghosts and fires, there are shadows of people.
Wu Xingxue asked, "Who is that? Guard?"
He thought to himself that Zhaoye City wasn't a devil's den, and what kind of guards would the devil's den need?
Sure enough, I heard Ning Huaishan say: "We used to have no guards in Zhaoye City. Those Qingming lanterns were placed by the city owner, and there were mysterious bells hanging on the tower. Once someone from Xiandu tried to enter Zhaoye City. , the mysterious bell will ring, and the Qingming lantern will burst into a wall of fire, stretching for hundreds of miles."
"But there were some later." Ning Huaishan said again.
"Why?" Wu Xingxue asked.
Ning Huaishan hesitantly said: "Uh, because the city lord is in that ghost place in the northern region of Canglang, he doesn't know when he will be able to come back. Many people worry that the Qingming Lantern and Xuanzhong won't last for many years, so..."
This is already a euphemism.
Wu Xingxue knew very well. It must be that the demons in Zhaoye City felt that he was bound to die, and they couldn't believe these things.
Moreover, being able to arrange guards means that there is a person who speaks effectively in Zhaoye City.
Wu Xingxue waved at Ning Huaishan and asked, "Come on, let me ask you, who is the current city owner of Zhaoye City?"
Ning Huaishan pouted, subconsciously, "Xue Li."
After speaking, Fang Chu gave him a heavy bow.
Only then did Ning Huaishan react and said, "City Lord..."
Wu Xingxue was not surprised at all, since he entered the northern region of Canglang, everyone in the world thought that he would definitely die. It is impossible for the Demon Cave Zhaoye City to be empty all the time as the city owner. With so many demons and demons, there will always be someone vying for a seat. It is normal to have a new caster.
He recalled that when he just left Canglang Northern Territory, Ning Huaishan was eager to pull him back to the night city, probably because of this.
"Xue Li?" Yi Wusheng suddenly said, "Xue Li..."
He was invaded by demons, and after more than 20 years of confusion, he didn't know who the new city owner of Zhaoye City was before he woke up. Hearing the name at this moment, he repeated several times and said, "This name is the same as a son of an old friend of mine."
Fang Chu: "Your old friend is the Feng family?"
Doctor Wusheng nodded: "Exactly, the Feng family and my Hua family have been on good terms for generations. The previous head of the family had two sons and a daughter, the eldest son was Feng Fei, his beloved daughter was Feng Juyan, and the youngest was Feng Xue Li."
Fang Chu: "That's right, it's him."
Doctor Wusheng was shocked: "What do you mean by this?!"
Fang Chu: "It's that Feng Xue Li, who turned against his family for some reason, entered the evil way, came to Zhaoye City, and changed his surname to Xue Li. We haven't been out of Zhaoye City for 25 years. What big devil has passed, but he took advantage of it and became the new city owner."
"Not only that!" Ning Huaishan said, his stomach was full of fire, his face was longer than a donkey: "He came to Zhaoye City, and he didn't repair his own mansion. After he left, Que Buluo banned himself, I'm afraid he might have moved in with all his belongings!"
Because of this, he didn't like Xue Li very much.
Before, he and Fang Chu wished for Wu Xingxue to return to the city as soon as possible to kill the majesty of that dog thing. Based on the ability of his family's city lord, once he comes back, how can Xue Li be able to make a fortune?
But now he has changed his mind. Their city lord doesn't remember anything, and it coincides with the robbery period. It is best to wait until the memory is restored and the robbery period is over, and then take Xue Li by surprise.
So, now is not a good time to reveal your identity.
Ning Huaishan and Fang Chu thought so, and called Wu Xingxue, wanting him to make a little easier before passing the station.
As a result, before he could speak, he heard a gust of wind behind him.
It was a cloudy wind with a corpse odor. When Wu Xingxue smelled that smell, he suddenly remembered Sang Yu's mansion in the dream, the corpse-refining person, who always had this smell on his body.
Wu Xingxue wrinkled the tip of his nose, and when he looked up again, he saw that the shadowy figures beside the city walls were gone. However, in front of them, there were dozens of people wearing black robes in an instant.
Their skin was pale, and there was a very conspicuous black line around their necks. At first glance, they seemed to be separated and forcibly sewn together.
Upon closer inspection, I found that the circle was not a black thread with uneven stitches, but a coffin nail, which was nailed in a circle along the neck.
"Is this the guard of the new city master?" Wu Xingxue looked at those people, tilted his head to the side, and said softly, "What ugly things are they?"
After he finished speaking, it was rare that he didn't hear a continuous echo, and he thought that Ning Huaishan still had such a deep time.
As a result, I heard Ning Huaishan's voice on the other side: "We have only been out of the city for a few days, how come there are so many people in the station?"
Wu Xingxue: "..."
Ning Huaishan, who was still beside him before, didn't know when he was a few steps away. Who was the person standing next to him listening to his nonsense?
Wu Xingxue turned his head and saw Xiao Fuxuan holding a sword.
Wu Xingxue was startled: "...Aren't you standing on the side of the carriage, why are you here?"
Xiao Fuxuan: "Didn't you look back? How do you know I'm standing by the carriage?"
Wu Xingxue moved his lips
, said nothing. The subtle and unspeakable feeling before came up again.
He vaguely noticed that Tiansu Shangxian didn't seem very happy, obviously not when he woke up. On closer inspection, it seems that it started when he said to Doctor Wusheng, "I don't remember the robbery period", and then hurriedly left the carriage.
Wu Xingxue: "..."
Well……
As a demon, he must never care whether others are happy or not. Besides, he really didn't know what to say if he wanted to speak in such a situation.
It's better not to see it.
The big devil thought so, and pursed his lips.
After a while, he moved again: "Then why did you come here?"
Xiao Fuxuan raised his eyelids: "Come and help people change their faces."
Wu Xingxue: "?"
He was stunned for a moment, and then Xiao Fuxuan whispered: "Don't move yet."
In the next instant, he understood what Xiao Fuxuan meant - he listened to the leader of the guards in Zhaoye City explaining to Ning Huaishan, and took a few steps towards here: "There is a change in Luohuatai, I am afraid that people will come over, the city lord ordered it to be added. City defense. It’s no problem for you to enter the city, these three are…”
The group of guards, with fire floating in their palms, followed the photo. Ning Huaishan and Fang Chu were Wu Xingxue's confidants, and almost everyone in Zhaoye City didn't know them. But the remaining three, they should check or have a look.
They were very close. Under such circumstances, it would be too obvious if Xiao Fuxuan raised his hand and touched someone's face.
Wu Xingxue said in his heart that it would be over.
They originally wanted to touch the Falling Flower Terrace and get some jade essence to repair the dream bell. For everything else, it's best to wait until he understands the dream and restores his memory.
But now that it's like this, I'm afraid it's going to attract attention——
People in Zhaoye City must know his face.
Xiao Fuxuan was actually quite a pain in the ass, after all, he was an immortal. As far as the fragments he dreamed about, most of the people in Zhaoye City probably knew what Xiao Fuxuan looked like.
Even Yi Wusheng is very dangerous. He is the elder of a prominent family in Xianmen, and he has a good reputation, so there are people who can recognize him at a glance.
Thinking of it this way, they really don't seem to be trying to keep a low profile, but more like they are here to provoke the entire Zhaoye City.
When the guard approached with the fire in his palm, Wu Xingxue heard two words from Xiao Fuxuan's lips: "Okay."
All right?
Wu Xingxue looked at his hand that he had never raised, and was very puzzled. Isn't this not moving, where is it?
When he turned around, he saw that the doctor Wusheng around him had not changed at all, and the thick cloth towel still covered his nose and mouth, but his eyebrows and eyes had changed.
At first glance, it looks like a weak scholar who has been controlled by demons.
The fire in the guard's palm swept away, and Wu Xingxue squinted at the firelight.
At that moment, the guard let out a "hiss" and muttered to the other guard beside him, "These eyes...how do I think I've seen them before?"
In the corner of the light, Wu Xingxue saw that Ning Huaishan and Fang Chushou had already pressed against the hilt of the sword, as if they were going to attack at any time. Just listened to another guard: "It's been two days, and there are always a few people who you think you've seen every day."
They looked at it carefully for a while, and turned the fire in their palms to Xiao Fuxuan.
From this, Wu Xingxue can be sure that his face has been changed to be unrecognizable like a doctor Wusheng.
"Have you finished the investigation? It's really annoying. As I said, we were just hungry along the way, so we caught a few people back." Ning Huaishan looked a little impatient, "Can't we bring anything else?"
It can be seen that he and Fang Chu have some status in Zhaoye City. Seeing that he was impatient, the guards didn't bother, and immediately made a way out.
"By the way, don't take the road of Luohuatai when entering the city. The city lord has opened another road on the right." The guard ordered behind.
"What's wrong with Luohuatai?" Ning Huaishan asked.
"It's nothing but the fire in the mountain again."
"Firelight?"
"Um."
Wu Xingxue remembered what Doctor Wusheng said in the carriage before, that after Luohuashan City was burned down by mountain fires, every year on the third day of the third lunar month, Luohuatai would still be illuminated for twelve miles. Many Xianmen disciples took their swords and went away, but they found that the mountain was empty, a piece of scorched earth, and there was nothing.
Until Luohuatai was drawn into the boundary of Zhaoye City and became the entrance to Zhaoye City, the lights on the third day of March slowly disappeared.
What these guards mean is that the fire has come up again after hundreds of years?
Ning Huaishan said, "We were fine when we left the city a few days ago."
The guard said, "It started two days ago."
two days ago?
Wu Xingxue was thinking in his heart.
Isn't that when they came out of the Valley of Compassion?
Such a coincidence? Or is there any connection between this?
He thought for a moment, and when he returned to his senses, everyone was already standing in front of the black iron gate. It is said that the Qingming Lantern set up by him floated on both sides, and swayed up and down a few times when everyone approached, looking like he was about to move.
While the guards were not around, Ning Huaishan whispered, "City Lord, do you remember how to use this Qingming Lantern?"
Wu Xingxue said calmly: "Forgot, what's wrong?"
Ning Huaishan looked like "everyone is numb": "This Qingming Lantern recognizes immortal energy and is very smart. It is said that it has been guarding the gate for hundreds of years, and there has never been a single mistake. That's not easy to fool."
Ning Huaishan glanced at Heavenly Su Shangxian, and said in a lower voice, "If you remember how to use it, you can still give it to Heaven.
It is convenient to travel alone. But you don't remember, what to do with this? "
Wu Xingxue: "..."
He said with a sad face: "It is said that this Qingming Lantern is scary to burn, I don't want to break it here, I-"
He was halfway through crying, his eyes suddenly widened, and his tail sounded abruptly, almost splitting.
Wu Xingxue followed his gaze and turned to look, and saw that Xiao Fuxuan only paused in front of the Qingming Lantern for a moment, then raised his feet and walked forward.
The long sword made a very soft sound, and the robes fluttered, and the long black boots could be seen.
The Qingming lamps on both sides only flickered a few times, and there seemed to be a moment of hesitation. The next moment, they quieted down again, ignoring that they had just let go of a high immortal.
Ning Huaishan: "??????"
This time, he and Fang Chu were really shocked.
"Why is the city lord able to enter?"
"Why can he get in without you doing anything?"
"He didn't even look like it was the first time in."
"City Lord?"
They turned to look at their own city lord, and saw that the city lord's thin neck and chin were hidden in the silver-white fox fur. After a while, a sentence popped out from his lips: "I don't know, are you two going?"
"..."
"Walk."
Until he passed through the black iron gate, Wu Xingxue was still thinking about the sentence "Why did he enter, it doesn't even seem like the first time he entered".
He could actually guess why.
Because in that dream, Sang Yu said that he saw Tiansu Shangxian when his two gadgets were spying on the sparrows. If the dream is true, it means that the former Tiansu Shangxian never disturbed the Qingming lamp when he came to illuminate the night city, and did not taste the taste of Qingming's ghost fire.
And Ning Huaishan said that the Qingming Lantern was set up by him.
Then there is only one answer -
A long time ago, when he was the Lord of Zhaoye City, he had already given Xiao Fuxuan convenience.
...
Wu Xingxue took a moment.
He subconsciously followed the figure and walked forward. At this time, he raised his eyes sharply, only to realize that he had entered a mountain road unconsciously, and was standing in a mountain fog at this time.
After only one step, he saw Xiao Fuxuan's tall figure drowned in the pale mist.
The fog was unusually thick and cold.
When Wu Xingxue followed through the white fog, he felt that the fog brushed past his neck, as if a large drop of ice water fell on the back of his neck with a "pop" and flowed down his back.
The chill made him close his eyes for a while, and when he opened them again, the scenery in front of him had completely changed.
The thick fog fell behind him, and at his feet was a white stone boundary monument crawling with vines. The boundary monument was engraved with beautiful handwriting: Luohuatai.
In front of it is a winding orange-yellow light, like a long dragon, starting from the mountain road in front of the feet and winding all the way to the horizon.
Under the light of the lights, it is faintly visible that the buildings are connected, the casements are opened, the pavement and stalls are scattered, and people and shadows are passing by.
Flags of various colors fluttered in the shadows of the mountains, and the nearest long flag was written with four words:
Luohuashan City.
Wu Xingxue stood for a moment, then raised his feet and walked towards Changfan.
He lowered his head and passed the long banner, and the lively voices of the people came towards him like the tide that suddenly rose in the sea without a reason.
Although he had no memory at all, when he heard those noises, he suddenly felt that this was the place. This was Luohuashan City back then.
But the real Luohuashan City has been burnt out and disappeared hundreds of years ago.
What are these in front of you?
When the guard entered the city gate just now, the guard had said that there has been a change in Luohuatai in recent days, and there are often lights in the mountains.
Could it be that he accidentally stepped into the illusion?
Then this fantasy is too real.
This mountain city is not built on a mountain road, but more like a long street with no end in sight. The ground is paved with white stones, and the paving is not exact. When you step on it, it will lift up slightly, and when you release it, it will fall back gently.
The closest to him was a three-storey tea shop. The pavilion was built on the mountain, but it was not slanted.
Long strings of lanterns hang from the eaves. There are many people sitting in the tea shop, chatting and laughing. A storyteller is sitting in front of the hall, holding a wake-up wood, and talking like flying stars.
The shop clerk had a white cloth towel on his shoulders, set up a stall outside the hall, and shouted straight into Wu Xingxue's ears: "The spirit tea fried in Xianquan at Luohuatai, one pot cures all diseases, and two pots of thousand-year-old worry- —”
Wu Xingxue: "..."
The tea flag supported by the stall swayed there for a long time, he couldn't hold it back, he reached out and touched the edge of the tea flag...
This illusion is a bit powerful, and even the texture of the coarse cloth is clear.
"Hey, this gentleman! Don't talk about my family's flag!" The shop boy said to him: "Do you drink tea? My family's tea is a must, and you won't be able to taste it outside of Luohuashan City."
Wu Xingxue shook his head and was about to say, "No need."
Suddenly, I saw a tall figure in front of him, about three or five feet away from him. The man raised his sword to push aside Bu Sheng floating on the pavement, turned sideways to avoid an old man who was pushing a cart, and was about to drown in the crowd.
Wu Xingxue strode over and was about to call out "Xiao Fuxuan".
As soon as the word "Xiao" was spoken, he felt a tap on his shoulder. The next moment, a palm gently covered his nose. He took a half step back, his back crashing into the warmth.
Xiao Fuxuan's voice sounded in his ear, and it was very low: "That can't be called, it's an illusion."
