Chapter 143 From Penglai?

You Huang shook his head helplessly, and sighed: "Actually, Yu Xuanzhen is also very worried about you. However, he is the prince of the dynasty, so even if he wants to come to you, he has to make proper arrangements for the East Palace. He told me You sneaked out of the palace, let me come to you first."

After a pause, he raised his finger and flicked her on the head violently: "He is weak and weak, leaving the palace and running around all day, don't you worry that he will fall ill?"

"Is he frail?"

Xia Ningxi didn't know whether to be angry or funny, she said with a dry smile, "I don't think he is weak at all."

"Where did you say that?" You Huang looked at her suspiciously and asked.

"I don't even know where to start with that."

Xia Ningxi twitched the corners of her mouth, rolled her eyes, changed the subject, and asked, "By the way, how did you get in? Do you know how to get out?"

"Follow me, it's easy to go out." You Huang lowered her eyes slightly, took her hand naturally, turned around and walked back the way she came.

Because she has known Youhuang since she was a child, holding hands like this is very common for Xia Ningxi. She stared curiously at the gray mist around her and followed Youhuang for nearly two quarters without knowing it. bell.When she woke up, she was already out of the maze.

The two of them stopped together and stopped in the densely shaded woods. The bright moonlight shone down on their heads, and the light was very dim.

You Huang breathed a sigh of relief, let go of her hand and said, "Okay, we can go back to the inn now."

Xia Ningxi nodded, and the two walked side by side. When they were not talking, they were tacitly quiet.

When approaching the foot of the mountain, Xia Ningxi looked up at the moon in the sky, and asked slowly, "Youhuang, what did Princess Tonghua talk to you about last night?"

"It's nothing, they talked about irrelevant things, and asked me a lot about things outside the palace." You Huang said absent-mindedly.

Xia Ningxi nodded, raised her hand and patted his shoulder with an extremely solemn expression: "You Huang, you must not be tempted by anyone. You have practiced for more than 2000 years and have never made a mistake. Seeing that it will be another hundred years You can become a fairy through the calamity, but if you are bound by the calamity of love, it will be difficult to resolve."

His heart trembled, You Huang's eyes darkened a bit, he turned his head to look at her serious expression, his tone was a little dry: "So, you think I will take the initiative towards Duke Tonghua?"

"No, with your appearance, Princess Tonghua is still a little short of you. I just remind you carefully, just listen." Xia Ningxi said as she rubbed her chin.

"Xia Ningxi, you are indeed a person who is relatively insensitive to feelings. You will always understand what other people think of you in hindsight." You Huang felt sad, stopped in her footsteps, and fell behind her, looking at her with deep eyebrows. Looking at her calm back.

After realizing that Youhuang had fallen, Xia Ningxi stopped and looked back at him, and asked in doubt, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing, let's go!" The corners of You Huang's lips raised slightly, and he quickly followed her. The two entered the village and walked towards the Shanshui Inn.

In the middle of the night, Xia Ningxi returned to the guest room, lay down on the bed, and slept very peacefully.

You Huang sat at the table by the window for a whole night, watching the sky outside turn from gray to dark, until the sun broke through the clouds and illuminated the entire mountain village.

Outside the window, there was a sudden burst of mournful crying, and the quiet village became commotion in an instant, and the people walking on the street hurried towards the place where the crying sound came from.

You Huang's eyes sank, she quickly stood up, and was about to jump out of the window.

Xu Shi's cry was too sad, Xia Ningxi suddenly opened her eyes, quickly got up from the bed and put on her robe, looked at the window by the window, and asked anxiously, "What happened?"

"I don't know, but it must be something bad." You Huang jumped from the window while speaking, and ran along the street to the place where the crying sound came from.

Xia Ningxi quickly put on her shoes, picked up the Qingli Sword, and then jumped out of the window, rushing to the farmyard not far away.

In the farmyard, a woman knelt by the trough for feeding animals in the yard, looked at the pile of white bones on the ground, patted her chest and cried, "A good person, no matter how you say it's gone, it's gone! Our whole family means Relying on you to live, you just go like this, how can we mother and son live!" As he spoke, he was crying to the point of breaking his heart.

There were many people in and around the yard, You Huang politely pushed aside the crowd and walked in, finally stopped not far from the woman, took a breath, frowned and said: "It was the work of the mountain ghost."

Hearing what he said, the faces of the people around him suddenly changed, and they asked in a hurry: "My lord, have you ever seen a mountain ghost?"

"Isn't it a monster that eats people? How could it be a mountain ghost?"

"We've lived here all our lives, and we've never heard of any mountain ghosts. It's been more than two months since this case happened. If it's a mountain ghost, why hasn't such a thing happened here before?"...

"Everyone, let's make way, let's make way." Xia Ningxi stopped at the periphery of the crowd, and squeezed in politely with a smile on her face.

Everyone looked at her as a girl of sixteen or seventeen, and looked at her wonderingly, someone asked: "Where did this girl come from?"

Xia Ningxi didn't answer, walked to the innermost side of the crowd, looked at the crying woman, took a breath, turned her head to look at the crowd, and said solemnly: "Where is the young man next to me? Brother of the same school, I am his junior sister. We are here to help you solve the mountain ghost. If there is no accident, within three days, my brother and I will help you get rid of the mountain ghost."

Everyone around looked at each other, and there was a moment of silence. A young man suddenly spoke up and laughed: "Little girl, you are so young, it's better not to talk big. If you are really a mountain ghost, how can you be so young? It is the opponent of the mountain ghost."

Xia Ningxi smiled, and said calmly: "My brother and I came out of Penglai Fairy Mountain, so we are naturally not comparable to ordinary practitioners. If the villagers trust us, we will naturally do our best to get rid of the mountain ghosts for the villagers."

The villagers once again looked at each other in dismay, discussing in whispers.

You Huang breathed a sigh of relief, walked up to Xia Ningxi, looked at the crowd, and said in a majestic manner, "Since we are willing to say this, we must be sure to get rid of the mountain ghost. Last night, I went into the mountain with my junior sister and found the mountain ghost." With some traces, there is a [-]% certainty that the mountain ghost can be eliminated."

"Since you all said that, we believe you, but..." A middle-aged uncle scratched his head and stopped talking embarrassingly.

Xia Ningxi's brains turned sharply, and she instantly understood what the uncle wanted to say. Holding the sword, she raised her eyebrows and cleared her throat and said, "As for the reward! We don't want too much, you can give us 20 taels of silver each, which is enough for us to travel around the rivers and lakes." It's good to wrap up."
