Sorcerer

To the north of Xiqu City is the famous Quqing Mountain Range, and the offshoot of the Quqing Mountain Range, Wanhe and Lianfeng Group, extends directly to the outside of Xiqu City.

The Wanhe Mountains are also called the Wanhe Hunting Ground. All kinds of beasts breed in it, and there are countless treasures of heaven and earth distributed in those deep ravines.Therefore, this place has always been a great place for hunting and adventures for realm cultivators.

Historically, the establishment of Xiqu City was precisely because a large number of realm cultivators gathered here, a market town was naturally formed, and a market town developed into a city naturally.

Today, Xiqu City is no longer as prosperous as the national capital, Guqiancheng. All kinds of treasures gather and circulate here, and the annual transaction volume is extremely astonishing.

But a very helpless situation is that the court cannot collect a penny of tax from Xiqu City at all.This huge amount of tax money all went into the pockets of the Xiqu Tuanlian, and among them, the three giants Chi Zun, Zise Youtong, and Ross the Great divided up 70.00%.

Judging from the wind reviews of Xiqu City, the behavioral style of these three realms of repair groups is that the Chi Zun is arrogant, the purple pupil is low-key, and the emperor Ross is calm, but...

"The whole bastard is a bastard!" Qu Zhenguo's Eastern Front Marshal Xue Kou said as he patted the table.I just received the news that Xiqu City is still nothing, and this year's military expenditure will be cut again.

As night fell, the street lamps on the streets of Dongshi gradually turned on, and the shops beside the road also hung up lanterns, illuminating the market as if it were daytime.

Pedestrians on the street are full of people, wanton carnival.

Small vendors yelled, and some street girls standing at the junction of light and dark also stretched out their white and soft arms to attract customers.

Wu Maxi and his begging corpse were already in place.

This time, the corpse was not the same one as before. This corpse had both legs intact, but one arm was missing.

Xiqu City has never been short of corpses, especially after a heavy snowfall.

Wumaxi himself was still hiding in a dark corner. From here, he could see most of the Dongshi Street, but he was in the darkness where the lights couldn't reach.

Wumaxi originally thought that this place should be an absolute blind spot, no one would find him, but he was wrong.

Not long after it opened, I saw a burly Jingxiu dragging a graceful street girl into the darkness hurriedly.That Jingxiu obviously noticed Wu Maxi, but at this moment, he was in a hurry, and because he was born bold and unrestrained, he didn't bother to care about it. He pressed the girl standing in the corner of the wall to bend down, took off his pants and started... the transaction.

Wu Maxi had never seen such a battle before, after those two left for a long time, she was still hot all over.

After a long time, the flow of people on the streets of Dongshi began to gradually decrease.

Wuma Xi let out a long breath, her mood gradually calmed down, she took a look at the dark corner, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

According to the plan, this place is the residence tonight and even in the future.

His body has almost recovered, only the broken left hand still needs time to recuperate.In order to save money and his long-term living habits, he couldn't wait to move out of the basement, back to the street, and found such a place to live.

This place is surrounded by wind and covered by a rain eaves. I thought it would be a good place to live, but looking at what the two of them did here, this place doesn't seem so good.

As the night faded, the noisy East Market finally became empty again.

Most of the shops have already turned off the lights, only a few of the lanterns outside the shops are still on, echoing each other on the empty street, making it even more deserted.

Wu Maxi had already counted and put away today's income, and curled up in the corner looking at the starry sky and the East Market under the night.

The scene in front of him is vague and blurred, as if his own future, which makes people not see clearly.

A few beast roars came from the northeast direction of the city, which was the direction of the Wanhe Mountains.The high-pitched and mournful voice seemed to have magical powers, and it made people's hearts beat suddenly.

The roar of beasts in the middle of the night is a unique scenery in Xiqu City, which is recorded in many travel notes about Xiqu City.And this kind of roar that can stop the heartbeat was made by Jihou before he died.According to the records in "Spirit Beast Spectrum", Zhehou is a master-level spirit beast, and its roar is its weapon, and such a shrill, high-pitched roar that can stop the heartbeat is its swan song before death.

There are many literati perverts who enjoy this kind of beast roar, and some poems have been handed down:

Most of all, the screams of struggling,

Like the strokes of meteors in the night sky.

……

It's just that Wumaxi at this time can't appreciate this kind of cruel beauty, because he has a feeling of sorrow for the death of a rabbit.

Amidst the mountains, a battle is taking place, the winner is of course the realm cultivator, and the loser is the swan song like a shooting star, and a few miles away, there is a loser who once hoped to become a realm cultivator. listen.

The night was deep and cold.

There was a slight sound of footsteps coming from the corner of the street, followed by a thin black figure walking towards this side with his head slightly lowered.

People in the southwestern region always like to hang all kinds of accessories on their bodies, and they jingle when they walk. The lonely Wumaxi is an exception, and this thin figure is also an exception. Apart from the slight footsteps, there is no sound. The sound comes out.

The man walked past a street lamp, and the light illuminated his face, clear and thin, with tight lips, as if anger was in his heart.Seeing that this person was about to pass by, he suddenly turned a corner and walked towards the darkness where Wu Maxi was hiding.

The figure went straight to the corner, looked at Wumaxi for a while, ignored it, took out the dick and started urinating against the corner.

Wuma Xi stared blankly, thinking that she had found a place of good geomantic omen, what the hell is this place?It's just filth.

The man shivered after finishing his convenience, put away the thing, and looked towards Wumaxi, who happened to meet Wumaxi's eyes.

"What are you looking at? Little bastard." A voice sounded in the darkness, extremely cold and deep.

Wu Maxi's heart tightened, fearing that her gaze would anger him, she quickly lowered her head, not daring to look any further.

Immediately afterwards, a gloomy chill submerged from the top of his head, quickly sank into his lower abdomen, and then entrenched in his lower abdomen without moving.

Wu Maxi was startled, what is this?

This chill gave him a feeling of extreme fear, as if his soul would be swallowed by it at any time.

Wu Maxi raised her head to look at that person, but only saw a black figure leaving.He didn't have the guts to negotiate with the other party, he could only watch him leave, and then turned around to think about the coldness in his lower abdomen.

Is this... a witch spell?

On the Continent of Tianshu, Yu Xing's blood is surging, the celestial phenomena are elegant and unrestrained, and the witch curse is known for its yin and mystery.According to the legend, the means of cultivating witches and curses is mysterious and unpredictable, killing people invisible, even listening to the legends makes people feel chills down the spine.

Wu Maxi once took over a business, and the client died under the spell of witchcraft.

When Wu Maxi just lifted the burial cloth of the corpse, she was almost taken aback.

The corpse was laughing.

A very natural smile, as if it suddenly freezes at the moment of the happiest smile.This kind of cheerful smile is especially frightening with a blue and purple face as the background, as if the devil is calling.

Later, after listening to family members’ explanations, I found out that this person had a curse that paralyzed breathing, and he forgot the function of breathing. During the fun with his children, his face gradually turned purple due to lack of oxygen, and finally he died of suffocation.However, even at the last moment before death, he still didn't realize that he was going to die, and he still had a happy face.

This may be the least painful way to die, but in the process of dying, people have no consciousness and no resistance, and have to make the listener shudder, a death like a sweet dream.Many years later, when Wu Maxi thought about it, she still felt her scalp tingling.

Strictly speaking, the Wuma family is also a branch of witchcraft.

Wuma's ancestral wind dish and exorcising curse, no matter in terms of spectrum or weaving style, are out-and-out witchcraft artistic conception.From the point of view of origin, the writings left by the ancestors of the Wuma family clearly stated that the source of these two artistic conceptions was Zha Xihou, a famous master of witchcraft in the Starry Night Era.

But other than that, the Wuma family has nothing to do with witchcraft.Most of Wu Maxi's impressions of witchcraft come from legends, or stories from the countryside.

Legends and stories are always fantastic and exaggerated, so Wu Maxi couldn't help but worry about her own situation.That cloudy and cold thing is too much like the imaginary conception of witchcraft.

Wu Maxi pondered for a long time but still had no idea. It stands to reason that that person would not be able to kill her, but there are exceptions to everything. According to legend, witches and curses are not normal people, let alone in Xiqu City, which is known for its chaos and savagery. .

Wu Maxi was a little frightened, so she hurriedly packed her luggage. She really couldn't stay on the streets of Xiqu City, she felt too insecure, so she should spend some money to live in the basement.

He packed his luggage and turned into the alley next to him. After walking for a short time, he heard shouts coming from the front of the alley.The voice quickly became clear, and it seemed that the owner of the voice was coming towards this side, and it didn't sound slow, but from the tone and content of the voice, it was another dispute.

There are too many right and wrong in Xiqu City.

Wuma Xi avoided it in fear that it would be too late, and hurriedly retreated to a dark corner beside the alley.

There was a clear and beautiful bell in the distance, tinkling a little hurriedly.

Very familiar ringtone.Wumaxi thought for a while and then remembered that this was the bell of the little girl named Ruyi.It looked like she was being chased by someone, but she was still wearing a bell while running away. Was she trying to... attract pursuers?

not like.Wu Maxi soon saw the girl's figure, under the dim light of the street lamp, she still looked so slim and beautiful.Seeing that she was in a panic, she didn't look like she was trying to attract pursuers, but she was so nervous that she forgot to pick the bell.

The girl staggered and ran closer and closer, and the voices of the pursuers became louder. After careful identification, there should be five people, all of them male.

Lu She once said that Xiqu City Jingxiu's laughter was like the old owl's night horn, and it sounded creepy in the silent night.The laughter and shouts of the five people behind were one after another. Although the tones were different, the same strain was exaggerated and unrestrained.

"Little girl, let me stop for a while, brother will buy you candy. Oh haha..." The voice behind sang and roared.

Ruyi's heart jumped into her throat, her steps were messy, and she almost fell to the ground.

Wu Maxi jumped out from the darkness, took Ruyi's left hand, continued to run forward, and tore off the bell from Ruyi's hand, stuffed it into her bosom, and those jingling guiding sounds disappeared immediately.

Ruyi's mind was blank at this moment, seeing his figure in the dim light, it seemed a little familiar, but she couldn't remember it.She was in a daze, and ran after Wu Maxi for no apparent reason.

As soon as the ringtone disappeared, the pursuers behind noticed it, and a sharp voice yelled, "The ringtone is gone, Ding Laosan, stop playing, hurry up your motherfucker, you will really run away later."

A rough voice sounded, and said: "Don't worry, I can't run away. Such a tender girl, if I let it go, I won't be able to sleep tonight."

"What the hell is your business? That girl is my favorite. If you dare to move, I will chop you up."

"Cao, whoever sees it has a share, are you a fucking brother?"

"This has nothing to do with brothers? My woman is not a bitch standing on the street."

"Shut up!" A cold voice rang out, "These two bastards have not been caught yet, why are you arguing?"

The voices of the two quarrels suddenly fell silent, and the five figures quickly passed through the alley, and then arrived at the street of Dongshi. Under the dim streetlights, a black figure frantically fled towards the street.

The leading middle-aged man with long beard waved his hand and said, "Chasing." The five quickly chased after the shadow again.

Wumaxi and Ruyi huddled together in a dark corner, not even daring to breathe.

In the darkness, Wu Maxi felt the girl beside her trembling nervously, and wrapped her in her arms with both hands. After a long time, the trembling gradually calmed down, and her body seemed to start to relax a little.

Wu Maxi let go of her hands, but her hands seemed to be nostalgic, rather reluctant.The distance between the two was less than a foot, and in the darkness, the sound of breathing was clearly audible.Wumaxi's nose smelled a burst of fragrance, which seemed to anesthetize the soul, making people feel happy physically and mentally.

"Thank you!" A voice as small as a gnat sounded, breaking the silence in the darkness, but adding a bit of ambiguity.

Wu Maxi didn't answer, walked out of the corner, turned around and wanted to leave.

Looking at the street lamps in the market, Ruyi finally recognized Wu Maxi, and wanted to say something, but she was introverted since she was a child, so she couldn't speak for a while.

Wu Maxi took a few steps outside, then suddenly retreated, pulling Ruyi into the darkness.

Ruyi was a little nervous, and was about to ask, but her mouth was already covered by Wumaxi, and she was about to struggle, but found that she was already tightly hugged by her.

Animals!

Ruyi almost shed tears, and was about to fight Wumaxi, when she heard voices from the street, and after careful identification, it was those five people who left and returned.

It turned out that I misunderstood myself!Ruyi felt feverish on her face, but fortunately it was very dark, so she wasn't afraid of being noticed.

The five people gradually approached, and their words could already be heard clearly.

"It's weird, she's obviously a little beauty, why did she turn into a corpse after chasing after her?"

"Hahaha, Xiao Fengzi, your woman died before she got through the door. Isn't that called a widower?"

"San Ding, shut up, if you didn't procrastinate, I would already be in the bridal chamber."

"You can also have a bridal chamber now, do you want me to drag your wife here?"

"you……"

"Shut up!" The cold voice came out again to smooth things over, "After you go back, take a good bath with grapefruit leaves. Today's corpse is a means of exorcising corpses. You should have heard of exorcising corpses?"

"You mean that unlucky corpse chaser who met who?" Xiao Fengzi's tone was a little puzzled.

"Yes."

"I'm... unlucky!" Xiao Fengzi and Ding Laosan said in unison.

When she heard her identity as the corpse exorciser was revealed, Wumaxi suddenly became nervous, and then relaxed again, with a sneer on her face, staring at the darkness in front of her with mockery in her eyes.

What will she do next?Fear pushed himself away like a snake and scorpion, and then looked at him with contempt and guard.

It should be like this, yes, it has been like this for more than ten years.

It doesn't matter, isn't it the same for everyone in the world?I have long been used to it.

Wu Maxi kept telling himself that it didn't matter, but there was always nostalgia and anticipation in his heart that couldn't be hidden. In order to cover up these, his sneer and sarcasm became more and more obvious.

A pair of weak arms suddenly hugged his waist, Wu Maxi's body became stiff instantly, her face was full of astonishment.

She... didn't push me away!

It was the first time in more than ten years that he was hugged by a stranger as a corpse hunter.

Wumaxi opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but couldn't utter a single word.Wanting to hug her, he raised his hand and gave up. He just stood quietly, feeling the faint fragrance, which entered his heart along with the night wind.

This hug didn't last long, after the five people left, Ruyi left Wumaxi's embrace.The two stood face to face in the darkness, neither of them spoke, the atmosphere was dizzy and intoxicating, and time seemed to have stopped.

After an unknown amount of time, several anxious voices came from the street, calling Ruyi's name, and quickly came towards this side.

Ruyi whispered, "My uncle and the others are here."

Wu Maxi gave a "hmm", turned around and walked out of the darkness, and walked towards another alley. She seemed a little bit reluctant in her heart, but she didn't hesitate in her steps.

"Hey!" Ruyi's voice came from behind, "You...don't you see them?"

"No need!" Wu Maxi's footsteps only paused for a moment, and then she sped up, submerging into the darkness at the entrance of the alley.
