Do You Know How to Capture a Villain?

When Ji Qingzhuo saw someone appearing, he dodged and hid behind Shen Rongyu. He was tall enough to block her.

She was still holding an umbrella in her hand, propping it at a slant, on top of Shen Rongyu's head, protecting him from the falling snow.

——Actually, Shen Rongyu was able to cast spells on his own to isolate the snowflakes from falling on him. He did this on purpose. When Yujian was flying at the beginning, he just wanted to feel the feeling of snow falling on his face, but he didn't expect that Ji Qingzhuo would still Remember to hold an umbrella for him, so he didn't remind her and let her hold an umbrella for him like this.

The villager only saw a girl in a black cloak hiding behind the young man in white. He glanced at Shen Rongyu, and felt that this person seemed to come from the fairy world. What kind of worldly expert.

"There are monsters in the forest, they have been eliminated by us." Shen Rongyu said warmly.

He stretched his hand back, grabbed Ji Qingzhuo's wrist, and walked out from the snow. His palm was still warm, but Ji Qingzhuo's hand was almost frozen, his fingers slipped down, Ji Qingzhuo put his hands together in his own.

"Are you... monks?" the villager asked.

"Yes." Shen Rongyu led Ji Qingzhuo forward, he didn't intend to pay attention to the mortals here, because the magic-seeking wheel pointed to a new demon again.

"Friar... a monk who slays demons... that's great!" The villager seemed to think of something, "It's been a long time since a monk has set foot in our Yunliang territory."

"Yunliang." Shen Rongyu repeated the name of the place, "This is already the most remote place in the land of cultivating immortals under the jurisdiction of Xuanyunzong. There is a disharmony between the sects, so our Xuanyun sect monks seldom come back here."

This sentence was what he said to Ji Qingzhuo, which gave her a general understanding of this land boundary.

"That's right, two immortal elders, you Xuanyun Sect doesn't care about us, and the cultivators in the Xueliang Region also ignore us, so there are many evil spirits here, and the most frightening thing is that even the emperor of our country is bewitched by evil spirits. The villager came over and whispered to them, "We used to be a small village managed by ourselves. Later, the emperor sent troops to take our place into their land."

"We live well by ourselves, so why come and take care of us?" the villager complained.

Ji Qingzhuo quietly listened to the villagers talking, and she noticed that although the clothes on the villager's body were not very good, they were enough to keep out the cold, and his clothes were not damaged, which meant that he lived a good life, but the man in the forest just now Hey, it doesn't look like life is going well.

"When did the demons in the forest appear?" Shen Rongyu seemed to have seen Ji Qingzhuo's question, so she asked casually.

"Returning to the Immortal, it was five or six years ago that a child died in the forest. It was the child of a lunatic in our village. Later, the lunatic threw himself into the river and died, and the snow forest began to eat people, so everyone in the village and town It is rumored that the resentful soul of the lunatic after death is still wandering in the forest." The villager replied.

"En." Shen Rongyu nodded, he had no intention of further exploring this matter, but he was more curious about the demon that bewitched the emperor of a country.

And...if he remembers correctly, the so-called small country here in Yunliang should be called Liang Country, and it was originally... a vassal state of the Dongshan royal family.

Shen Rongyu held Ji Qingzhuo and wanted to leave. Ji Qingzhuo was holding one hand by him, and the other hand needed to hold an umbrella. Moved, trying to break free.

"Brother Xiaoyu, let me take a look at the magic wheel." Ji Qingzhuo whispered.

Shen Rongyu let go, and Ji Qingzhuo took out her magic-seeking wheel. She saw that the pointer on the disc was still pointing to the north, and she said to Shen Rongyu, "Go north."

"The north is the direction of the imperial capital of the Liang Kingdom." Seeing that Ji Qingzhuo and Shen Rongyu ignored him, the villager caught up and said, "You two elders, be careful when you go, the emperor sent troops to our place, but It is very cruel to directly wipe out the family that governs this place, and to associate with evil spirits."

Shen Rongyu didn't respond to the villager, he simply looked down on anyone here, but Ji Qingzhuo turned around and thanked him: "Uncle, thank you for your reminder."

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Rongyu led her to fly up to the clouds, and the whistling wind and snow blew towards her again.

"Could the northern demon indicated by the magic wheel be the one that the villagers said was bewitching the emperor?" Ji Qingzhuo asked his own question.

Shen Rongyu pursed his lips, and he said slowly: "You have to see it to find out."

Not long after they left, the villagers they had met packed up their things and went home, but on the way home, a black shadow flashed from the wind and snow, scaring the villagers to the ground.

Ji Qingzhuo and Shen Rongyu left from the market outside Xuanyunzong Mountain Gate. It is easy to know the direction they left, so the black shadow followed them all the way here.

He approached the villager and asked, "Just now, two monks, a man and a woman, passed by here."

"Yes yes yes—" the villager said in horror, just the breath of this man made him tremble all over.

"Where did they go?" Black Shadow asked.

"Going to the capital of Liang State in the north." The villagers dared not answer.

The black shadow didn't speak anymore, but the villager's body collapsed to the ground after he left, and his body melted away without a trace.

He asked all the way, and then killed all the way. Human life is nothing to him.

However, at this time, Ji Qingzhuo didn't know what kind of thing was staring at her. She and Shen Rongyu walked for a few days and came to the capital of Liang State. They tried to stay in the city to rest during the journey, and they would spare time to practice at night Looking at Liang Guo's style and appearance on the road, it seems that it is not very difficult.

Arriving at Xuedu, the capital city of Liang State, Ji Qingzhuo and Shen Rongyu were going to find a post house to settle down. Among the mortals who came and went in this Xuedu, there were also quite a few monks, but most of them had low cultivation bases, and those with the aptitude of immortal bones would not stay here. Here, they will gather in the sect of cultivating immortals to seek immortal fate. Before the aura has not yet illuminated everyone, the lives of monks are far away from ordinary people.

It was only at night that when they entered the city of snow, they hid their identities in order not to reveal their whereabouts and make the demons they were following suspicious. Pretending to be an ordinary mortal entered the city.

The umbrella in Ji Qingzhuo's hand is now really an umbrella to block the falling snow. She was walking beside Shen Rongyu, originally she stood on tiptoe and stretched her arms to cover him from the snow. Shen Rongyu saw her tiptoe It was a bit difficult, so she took the umbrella back from her hand, supported it by herself, and even accommodated Ji Qingzhuo under the umbrella.

"Mine." Seeing that Shen Rongyu had taken the umbrella, Ji Qingzhuo was a little reluctant—she knew that Shen Rongyu gave her the umbrella, but she paid for it, right? After paying, this umbrella is hers .

Ji Qingzhuo was so possessive of an umbrella, Shen Rongyu was not even annoyed, and he didn't even have any displeasure. He just laughed lightly and happily: "Lend me for a while, can you?"

"Yes." Ji Qingzhuo no longer stood on tiptoe, and she followed Shen Rongyu. Many stalls were set up on both sides of Xuedu Street, selling all kinds of gadgets.

Shen Rongyu is not interested in these, but Ji Qingzhuo likes them very much. She avoids the crowds and walks involuntarily to the place selling accessories on the street.

Of course, Shen Rongyu didn't stop her, just followed her, letting her go wherever she wanted.

It’s not surprising that they use umbrellas in snowy days, because in a mortal city, most mortals can already deal with things like “umbrellas” calmly. will get dirty, so they can rightfully reject everything that has to do with umbrellas.

But mortals are different, no matter how frightening the desertion is, to them, it is still a legend of their grandparents, life will always pass, this umbrella must not be used.

Ji Qingzhuo picked up a string of pink bead chains from a small stall on the street, compared them on the handles of the umbrellas, and asked Shen Rongyu, "Master Xiao Yu—" brother.

She didn't say the word "senior brother" completely, because she remembered that she had agreed with Shen Rongyu before entering Xuedu, that she should not call her senior brother or sister when she got here, so as not to reveal her identity as a monk.

In fact, Ji Qingzhuo called Shen Rongyu "Xiaoyu" before, and she was called Xiaoyu when she called Red Airflow, but facing Shen Rongyu in human form, this was almost an intimate name, and she was still a little embarrassed after saying it.

Moreover, she didn't know why she had to ask Shen Rongyu when she bought a pendant on an umbrella, but this question was asked as it should be.

"Xiaoyu, does this look good hanging on an umbrella?" Ji Qingzhuo answered her question.

Shen Rongyu stared at her, he didn't look at the string of pink beads at all, he said: "Zhuozhuo carved it himself looks better."

Ji Qingzhuo thought, it took her many days to carve Shen Rongyu's epiphyllum jade pendant. Her eyes are not very good, so she often needs to carve for a while and then rest for a while.

She has only cared so much about Shen Rongyu, of course... She really doesn't have the energy to spend time on the umbrella to make another accessory. Of course, she thinks it's better to be simple for her own things.

So she said: "Xiaoyu, I only engraved it for you."

The implication of this sentence is that she only gave Shen Rongyu the jade pendant carved by herself, and did not want to spend time carving one for the umbrella.

Hearing Shen Rongyu's words, his knuckles holding the handle of the umbrella tightened slightly, and a complicated feeling came to his heart... Ji Qingzhuo actually felt that this umbrella...was not as good as him, but...

He sighed lightly, not knowing whether it was good or bad.

"If Zhuo Zhuo likes it, he will buy it." He replied.

Satisfied, Ji Qingzhuo picked some more from the booth, and said to Shen Rongyu, "I can change the umbrella every day, so that it will look good every day."

Shen Rongyu thought to herself, why don't you give me two more jade pendants, and let me change one every day without repeating the same one every day?

Ji Qingzhuo didn't know his complicated and entangled thoughts, so she paid the money, then left contentedly, and raised her hand to string the pink bead chain she was looking for first on the handle of the umbrella.

Two larger pink crystals hang down from the end of the pink bead chain, which are carved into the shape of a small flower. Ji Qingzhuo felt a little regretful as he touched the small pink crystal flower: "The shape of this carving is too ordinary. gone."

"Too ordinary?" Shen Rongyu pressed the pink crystal pendant with one hand, "What kind of one does Zhuo Zhuo want?"

"Anything is fine." Ji Qingzhuo didn't pick this one, but she felt that the temperament of this little flower powder crystal was not suitable for an umbrella.

"Then I will change at will." Shen Rongyu said.

With a swipe of his fingertips, a hidden magic light flashed by, and the powder crystal was instantly carved by him into the shape of... Epiphyllum, which was quite similar to the pattern of Epiphyllum on the jade pendant he wore around his waist.

"It's epiphyllum." Ji Qingzhuo actually expected it a long time ago, but she was still a little happy when she saw the change in the pink crystal.

She also liked this flower very much, so she stretched out her fingers and fiddled with the pink crystal epiphyllum lightly.

"This flower...is a bit like—" She was about to say that this flower is a bit like the huge epiphyllum transformed by the red air flow in the cultivation space—mainly because of the similar color, but she suddenly remembered something and shut up immediately.

"Like what?" Shen Rongyu asked suddenly, tilting the umbrella towards her.

Of course Ji Qingzhuo was embarrassed to tell the situation in the cultivation space, she was silent until Shen Rongyu asked again: "Zhuozhuo, don't you want to talk about it?"

"Like you." Ji Qingzhuo quickly calculated in his mind, the red air flow is equal to Shen Rongyu, and the epiphyllum transformed by the red air flow is also equal to Shen Rongyu, so this pink epiphyllum is like Shen Rongyu.

"Like me?" Shen Rongyu laughed in a low voice, and after a long time, he said slowly, "Zhuozhuo, this flower looks like you."

The author has something to say:

Xiaoyu: She carves a jade pendant for me but not an umbrella (jealous.)

Xiaoyu: She buys a lot of accessories for the umbrella and doesn’t buy them for me (jealous.)

Zhuo Zhuo:? ? ?
