Spring River Flower Moon Night: Set of 2 Volumes

Chapter 6
"Your candle is so useless, what does it have to do with me? You should ask the owner of the candle shop." Wang Zijin said, took the candle in his hand and looked at it again and again. It was no different from ordinary candles. No difference.

The boy looked sullen and lowered his head, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, he raised his head and said to the prince, "Guest officer, please follow me. There may be monsters in the dark. Let's go get candles together."

Wang Zijin couldn't help being overjoyed when he heard this, "It's so good, sitting alone in this dark room is really scary, go together, go together!"

He hurriedly walked out of the room with the young man, the long corridor was empty and far away, and he didn't know where it led. The lantern in the young man's hand emitted a dim light, fluttering like a firefly in the dark night.

And in the most spacious and luxurious room of the inn, Scarlet and the big spider had a great fight. The spider kept spinning silk, and the ceiling was covered with slime. Silk strands were everywhere, but there was not a trace of it on the spider. body.

Fei Xiao kept yelling while tossing and turning, "Oh, old man, you are so disgusting, you're getting saliva all over the place."

"You hide, I want to see how long you can hide, the room is full of spider silk, even if it doesn't touch you, you are still in the cage I made, and it will eat you when the time comes, just right It can increase my morality."

After hearing this, Fei Xiao seemed to think of something, and stopped, "Oh, you reminded me that you are not allowed to live any longer. You have already killed so many people, and it is time to pay for your life."

He raised his eyebrows and smiled, and with a wave of his hand, the folding fan flew out, like a spinning knife, drawing a death arc in the air, and cut off half of the spider's head at once, and the spider screamed and turned over. fell to the ground.

"If you want to fight with me, it's too early for you!" Fei Xiao looked proud, but the victory came too easily, which was a bit disappointing.

Before he could stop laughing, the huge spider's corpse disappeared before his eyes with a whoosh.The room instantly became spacious and clean, without any mucus, as if nothing happened just now.

This unexpected turn of events was really unexpected. I saw a small figure made of paper slowly falling from the air, with most of its head cut off.

"Oops, I was deceived, it was actually a puppet illusion." Fei Xiao couldn't help screaming that something was wrong, and rushed out of the room.

Zijin, Zijin is in danger!

However, there was no monster aura in the vast air, instead it was full of vitality, filling the entire inn. Where can I find the real body of that monster?

Ten

"Excuse me, where are we going?" Wang Zijin followed the boy, turning left and right in the corridor of the inn, and he didn't know the direction for a long time.

The little boy replied respectfully: "Guest, let's go to the storeroom right away. The candles are all in there. Take them and go back."

After speaking, he led the prince into a few corners, pushed open a door, and the cold night wind rushed towards him.

In front of him was the forest that he had just seen in the room, the trees were full of shadows, the branches and leaves were lush, it was very gloomy, as if a group of dark clouds were pressing on him, it was very different from the peaceful scene he had just seen.

"Guest officer, let's go!" The young man said and held up the lantern to take a look. Wang Zijin saw a path paved with bluestone slabs in front of the two of them, winding and straight to the woods.

"Why is your warehouse in such a place? Can we not go there?" Wang Zijin was afraid and began to retreat.

The boy didn't answer, and walked ahead alone with a lantern. When the prince entered, it was dark behind him, and he didn't know how to go back. Looking ahead, the flickering light of the lantern was about to go away, so he had to force himself. Calmly followed, "Hey! Wait for me!"

The two walked for about a cup of tea, and the young man pointed to a dark shadow in the forest and said, "That's the warehouse!"

Wang Zijin looked in the direction he was pointing and screamed that it was not good. It was a low thatched hut, which looked dilapidated in the night and seemed to collapse at any moment, it was truly eerie.

The boy hurried over, and under the light of the red lantern, two wooden doors appeared before his eyes.

The paint on the door was peeling off badly, and it was also full of cobwebs. It was dilapidated, and it really didn't look like a warehouse.

"This is your warehouse? It really doesn't match the style of your store, and it doesn't look very big, how can it hold things?" Wang Zijin wondered when he saw this.

"Guest officer, don't blame us. We have a large warehouse over there, but the candles in it can't be lit, so I came here to see if there are any candles."

After the boy finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and pushed the door, the dust continued to scatter, Wang Zijin quickly covered his nose with his cuff, it seemed that the warehouse hadn't been used for a long time.

"Hey, hey, can I not go in? Wait for you outside the door." While speaking, the boy bowed and walked in, leaving the prince standing alone in the dark forest.

After waiting for a long time, the boy still didn't come out, but seeing the shadows of the trees whirling outside and the wind howling, Wang Zijin couldn't help shivering, and only heard the rustling sound from the forest, as if someone was walking on the grass .

Wang Zijin couldn't help being curious, but also forgot to be afraid, and walked over following the voice.Not far away, I saw the back of a scholar moving slowly in the night. The man was wearing a blue shirt and had a thin figure. He seemed very familiar, but he couldn't tell who he looked like.

He was in a daze in the long grass, and the scholar also heard the voice and turned his head slowly.

Under the silver light, a more familiar face appeared in front of him, with such delicate features, white face, messy hair and shining eyes, it was clearly his own.

The man's eyes were also full of surprise, the two looked at each other, the skirts of their clothes swayed gently with the night wind, it was like a reflection in the water, the shape in the mirror was like a dream.

Wang Zijin only saw the most terrifying thing in the world, who is that?Is it me or what?Could it be that he is already dead, and his soul is out of his body?

In the cold night wind, he seemed to vaguely think of something, but the fear made him unable to think.

In the end, instinct overcame reason, and as soon as he recovered, he turned and ran, yelling, and got into the dilapidated thatched hut.

The thatched hut had been abandoned for an unknown amount of time, and when he slammed into it, he was greeted with a musty smell, and dust fell from the roof.

"Hey, little brother, where are you?" There was something on the floor of the warehouse, which was very obstructive, he stumbled forward, just wanted to find the boy quickly, and the two went back together.

The scholar behind him didn't come after him, and he gradually felt relieved. He saw wooden shelves standing on both sides of the dark room, and the pots and jars were scattered on the ground. It was really a warehouse, but the boy was nowhere to be seen.

Wang Zijin hastily stretched out his hand to grope in the dark, intending to take a candle and head back home.

He found a jar nearby, and there were a lot of stick-like things stuck in it, probably either candles or scrolls, but the tentacles felt cold and hard, like a solid wooden stick.

"What is this thing and what is it for?" He held up the thing and was studying it, when he suddenly saw a thin figure on the opposite wall, who seemed to be the servant just now.

"You're back!" He hurriedly turned his head, only to feel that his heart finally fell into his stomach.

As soon as he opened his mouth to tell about his adventure, he heard the boy's eerie voice resounding in the darkness: "What the guest officer holds in his hand is a human bone."

"What?" Wang Zijin hurriedly threw away the things in his hands, looked around, and said in a trembling voice, "W-what is this place? How could there be such a human bone?"

"Who the hell are you? Why don't you have a soul? Why can't the soul-inducing lamp be lit?" The young man said as he approached slowly, with a stern expression on his face, which was quite different from the lowered brow and pleasing appearance just now.

"I'm just a scholar who came to Beijing to rush for an exam. I don't know what a soul-inducing lamp..." Wang Zijin's legs softened and he fell to the ground. Under the moonlight, he saw that the jar beside him was indeed full of human bones. Several skulls were scattered on the ground, revealing the paleness of death.

"No matter what you are, eat you first!" The boy's emaciated body began to swell as he spoke, and he continued to grow long black hair, and several crooked feet protruded from his back.

In an instant, it turned into a gigantic spider, with two compound eyes the size of a washbasin, taller than the two of them, and its skin glowed faintly in the dark.

Where did Wang Zijin see such a strange thing, he was frightened to death.

The spider crawled up to Prince Jin in an instant, stretched out its strong pincers, grabbed him and stuffed it into its mouth.

Before Wang Zijin could react, he was caught by the spider. The spider's front legs were like iron pincers, clamping him firmly. There are also many tentacles growing around the mouth, and the mouth is drooling.

"Feihong! Feihong! Come and save me!" Wang Zijin wailed desperately seeing his life was dying.

Seeing that the spider was scared out of his wits, the spider couldn't help being very proud, and bit it down, but heard the sound of paper being torn, it didn't seem to bite a living person, but it seemed to bite on the window paper.

Looking again, his claws are empty, where is the shadow of Wang Zijin?Only a torn paper figurine left slowly falling from midair to the ground.

"Puppet Illusion!" The spider couldn't help being startled, and quickly looked around. Who is planning all this in the dark?But in the gloomy warehouse, where is there half a figure?

eleven
"Hahaha, that's right, it's puppet illusion. If you can use it, can't I?" Cheerful laughter echoed in the warehouse, and a figure floated down from the roof, with a light and unrestrained posture, like a light cloud, "Now Do you know why he has no soul?"

That person was wearing a white dress, which looked very dazzling in the dark, his face was like a crown of jade, his eyes were full of peach blossoms, he seemed to be watching a fun farce, who was it?
"Where did you come from, evildoer, to trouble me?" the spider yelled angrily, and spat out half of the paper figurine from its mouth.

"Looking at the two of us, who is more evil?" Fei Xiao pointed at the spider's ugly belly and long legs with a folding fan, covering her mouth and snickering.

"Stop talking nonsense!" the spider said and rushed towards it.

Fei Xiao dodged the blow, turned around again, and there was already a long knife in her hand, the blade was the color of vermilion.

"This time it's the real body, it's really much stronger than before." Fei Xiao raised her eyebrows and smiled, and started fighting with the big spider. The spider kept attacking with its tentacles, and it kept spinning silk in its stomach.
