The Retirement of the Demon Lord

After a peaceful night, Mei Qianxiao woke up with the smell of herbs in her nose, but it was 10,000 times better than waking up with only the smell of corpse or the smell of stinky ditch. The dilapidated medical hall was ventilated everywhere, and the few breezes that penetrated slightly drove away the warm and dry noon.

​​

Mei Qianxiao stretched out and was startled when she turned around.

​​

"Quack doctor, what's wrong with your arm? I remember that I just pulled out your beard last night, but didn't take off your arm." Mei Qianxiao looked at Hu Lai's hand, which was covered in bandages, and looked at herself with a sad expression. , strangely asked.

​​

Talking about the beard, I felt a second injury. I touched the bald beard and felt even more resentment in my heart. Just break it, you can't do it!"

​​

Damn, do all the quack doctors now have a tendency to abuse themselves?

​​

The fortune-teller on the side knew at first glance that he was someone who could not keep secrets. He loved to talk and couldn't help but smiled at Mei Qian and made a small report: "Why did he fall? He saw you asleep in the morning and scratched your bones. The knife is looking for you to trouble you. But I didn’t expect you to beat someone while you were sleeping. Before the knife was even close, you were snoring and grabbing one arm and throwing a dice to the side…the arm was broken!”

​​

puff ha ha ha...

​​

What else are you doing... You want to **** me off while I'm asleep? In our realm, when I fell asleep, I felt more sensitive to maliciousness, and I didn't consciously move my hands, and it was even less serious... This quack doctor, an ordinary person without martial arts, was lucky not to be beaten to death by my brother. Well, the broken arm should be taken as a lesson.

​​

This kind of fool doesn't care about him.

​​

Mei Qianxiao got up and hesitated to ask if Lin Xiyu was up, but she felt that she was someone's savior, so she should have a high-level demeanor and not be so frivolous. Logically speaking, shouldn't the girl get up early to say hello to herself? snort! There is no beauty shouting to get up in the morning, my brother is not happy!

​​

After Mei Qianxiao inadvertently passed by the door of the guest room for the eighth time, Hu Lai finally couldn't take it anymore, and said in a urn, "It's useless to dangle around, people have left early!"

​​

"What, gone? Where did she run to when she couldn't see anything?" Mei Qianxiao asked in a daze.

​​

"The girl is more self-reliant than you think. After groping for a morning and getting used to the invisible situation, she can move freely like ordinary people... You people in the martial arts have practiced martial arts, it is really unusual, ordinary people at least It takes a few months to get used to seeing things..."

​​

"Did she say where to go?"

​​

"It's like a nearby mountain. When I asked her what to do, she smiled. Oh, that beauty awakened my heartbeat and made me feel young again... Is this what it feels like to be in love?"

​​

Mei Qianxiao ignored Hu Lai and fell into a beautiful fantasy, why would he stay here when everyone else is gone? Straight out of the hospital. It's better for Lin Xiyu to run away by himself. He still has to find his master. He must be worried when he sees her, and he has to take care of her for a while, and now he has left a big burden...

​​

Lin Xiyu must have thought of this too, and didn't want to trouble him any more, so she left by herself.

​​

Thinking of this, Mei Qianxiao felt inexplicably lost, she didn't even know which direction she was going in, and she couldn't understand why she was so worried about a person she knew only half a day. When I came back to my senses, I found myself walking into a dead end, where several children of different ages were playing.

​​

"Jiuri Mountain, climb for nine days; after ten days, there will be nothing to return. Who knows the ghosts and gods in the mountains, I would rather take the boldness to exchange their lives; beat the drums in the middle of the night, don't come close, the big ghosts love crying children... Sleep well, sleep well, big Ghosts love crying children the most..."

​​

Mei Qianxiao turned around and walked a few steps. In the end, she gritted her teeth and walked back quickly to the group of children. She crouched down and forced a kind smile and asked, "What nursery rhymes are you singing? Why are they so good!"

​​

"Uncle, are you sick? How can this nursery rhyme be so scary?" The nearest little girl looked at Mei Qianxiao with a pair of foolish eyes.

​​

Mei Qianxiao's "Uncle" was hit hard. Are the little kids nowadays so blind... You are the only uncle! You have the disease! It belongs to the innocence that your children should have, has they all been eaten by dogs!

​​

"This song is about the 'big ghost' on the mountain. It only started to be sung a few months ago." "Me too. My father went to Jiuri Mountain two months ago, and he never came back..." "The two next door The hunter in the street, Uncle Niu, also went up to Jiuri Mountain and did not come down. Auntie said that he must have been eaten by the big ghost on Jiuri Mountain... Recently, many people have gone up to Jiuri Mountain and have never come down again." "My mother Said, if I am disobedient and noisy at night, the big ghost will come and eat me..."

​​

Tsk, go to the police if someone is missing, and make up nursery rhymes here to scare children into making woolen yarns... It's troublesome when you hear it, you're a motherfucker!

​​

Mei Qianxiao stood up and struggled for a while, but a white shadow flashed in his mind, easily defeating his reason, and asked a few little kids angrily, "So this **** nine days Where is the mountain?"

​​

There was a lot of noise in the Huaijitang Medical Center. A few thugs wielding sticks were showing off their might. The fortune-teller sat on the hospital bed with his eyes closed and pretended to be dead.

​​

"Heroes from all walks of life, I really don't have the money to pay the protection fee... Don't smash my medical hall, there's not much in it for you to smash... Okay, okay, in a few days?"

​​

There are bullies everywhere, and there are bullies everywhere. Huai Jitang is no exception here. There is no power to back up, and the official master is not good at managing the security of the slums. Hu Lai has to pay a lot of protection fees every month. It was not long after the payment was made this month, and these gangsters came to the door again when they had no money to spend. Hu Lai begged for mercy and failed to clear them away.

​​

Suddenly, a figure flashed like a black shadow, and Hu Lai's eyes flashed, and the few thugs disappeared, only Qian Qianxiao stood in front of him.

​​

Looking from afar, the gangsters all lay down outside the hospital with their hands folded.

​​

"I will take care of this place in the future, and I will collect protection fees at my site in the future. If you see it once, you will lose a limb..."

​​

Mei Qianxiao didn't turn her head back, she stretched out her hand and swung it in the air, and a gust of wind hit, and the few thugs felt their heads tilted, their cheeks hurt, as if they had been slapped hard, and even a few teeth had been knocked out. !

​​

If they didn't know that they were fools when they hit the iron plate, they all walked away with each other in a cold sweat, looking back and peeking from time to time, as if they had encountered some monster.

​​

"Brother Bad Phase, you came just right, although I'm not convinced, but this time I still reluctantly thank you..." Hu Lai didn't expect Mei Qianxiao to come back to help him once, and he was relieved, as if he had pulled his beard last night The grudge has been written off!

​​

Right now, I still have one more time to break my neck and pay for a night's lodging. In general, I should be more kind, and I should be more confident in my words!

​​

Hu Lai got up from the ground, coughed twice, and was about to change his posture to say it again, when suddenly a thousand smiles interrupted his pretentiousness.

​​

"Go get a pen and paper and write it down, what herbs do you want..."

​​

"Huh? What the hell?" Hu Lai was interrupted by Mei Qianxiao, but his words confused him.

​​

"Don't we owe you some accommodation fees? I'll go up the mountain to collect herbs and pay you back."

​​

"Oh, you bad-looking little brother suddenly found out with your conscience? Where are you going to pick it up? I told you, I either don't want it, or I want the best!"

​​

Hu Lai returned the letter to the hospital, took a pen and paper, and began to write.

​​

"I'm going to Jiuri Mountain." Mei Qian smiled and said word by word.

​​

Hu Lai stopped talking nonsense and quickly finished writing, stuffed the paper into Qianxiao's arms, watched him disappear into the hospital in a hurry, tilted his head with a smile and glanced at the fortune-teller who finally opened his eyes from pretending to be dead: "It's really You're right, this kid can't escape the Peach Blossom Tribulation!"

​​

"Hehe, look at his peach eyes that attract bees and butterflies... His peach blossoms are still growing! But the little girl's phoenix entering the dragon's nest complements each other, this kid is afraid that the bamboo basket will be empty..."

​​

"Isn't this kid a prince or general?" Hu Lai raised his head and asked curiously.

​​

"I can't see it, like a foggy person, this is the first time in my life I've seen..."

​​

……

​​

To the west of Nan'an City, there is a mountain with endlessly winding peaks. This mountain is Jiuri Mountain, not far from the village where the tile thieves attacked yesterday.

​​

Lin Xiyu was walking flexibly on a mountain in Jiuri Mountain at this time. The streams and bays were rippling, and the peaks and peaks were reflected. Lin Xiyu walked during the period like a Caixia Fairy who was leisurely strolling. The dusty and elegant atmosphere made mortals can't bear to see it. Live to want to worship.

​​

In fact, she appeared near the village yesterday, and her real destination was Jiuri Mountain. She didn't have a clear goal in her career in the arena. Anyway, because of her love for righteousness, she would go wherever there was trouble. If she was not chivalrous and righteous one day, she would feel uncomfortable. Later, I unknowingly came to Fuzhou Mansion, and I heard that Jiuri Mountain near Nan'an City had been missing recently, so I came to investigate. It happened that a group of wandering tile thieves attacked the village, if it wasn't for Mei Qianxiao, I would have explained it here.

​​

Despite her young age, she was born in a famous martial arts family, and she looks like a fairy, but underneath her easy-going and confident temperament, there is a paranoid heart that is difficult for others to understand. It is precisely because of this paranoia that she is very different from ordinary gentle ladies and does not get along well with other girls of the same age. A few years ago, when her father brought her into the palace to see the emperor, he met Li Mengyao, who was also unwilling to admit defeat. She only had this one close friend.

​​

It's her personality that's why she has the obsession that she won't die until the Yellow River. Since she heard the news and came here, if she doesn't know what happened in Jiuri Mountain, she will feel uncomfortable even if she goes back.

​​

Early this morning, she felt that her body was fine, so she went to Jiuri Mountain to find clues. A righteous person like her, who doesn't believe that there are ghosts and ghosts in the world from the bottom of her heart, can't scare her away. If it is a monster, she will kill the monster; if it is a man-made disaster, she will eliminate the harm for the people!

​​

However, the Jiuri Mountains are endless, and she didn't find any clues on the mountain from morning to sunset.

​​

Just as she sat on the edge of the cliff and felt the afterglow of the sun sloping westward, a slight and long "dong" sound suddenly fell into her ears, and it was easy to miss it if she was not careful.

​​

When Lin Xiyu heard the sound, she stretched out Shu Yue's shy smile. She was not afraid of the sudden sound in the lonely mountains. She was most afraid of the emptiness that she couldn't find any clues she searched for.

​​

Hearing the voice, Lin Xiyu got up and started to exercise light energy, and it was like a white lightning bolt running through the forest at night!

​​

"Boom"...

​​

"Dong Dong"...

​​

At first, Lin Xiyu walked towards the sound of the drums, but after running for a while, she was suddenly shocked, and the demonic wind that blew in the darkness of the night gave her goosebumps...

​​

Why...the drum sounds are in two places?

​​

Lin Xiyu pondered for a moment, then decided to go straight to one place regardless. It was time for a cup of tea under the full gallop, and the originally calm mood suddenly became uneasy.

​​

In this open rocky field ~www.readwn.com~ with a wide field of vision, the sound of drums faintly rang here, but nothing happened! No people, no ghosts, not even a single beast! Only the abrupt and bewitching drums sounded irregularly!

​​

She calmed down again and ran to another drum sound, but she still didn't find anything!

​​

"Boom..." "Boom!!" "Boom dong dong..."

​​

It seems that the wandering spirits of the mountains and forests are gradually awakening at night, and the drum sounds are generated one after another! Listen carefully, no less than ten places!

​​

Lin Xiyu, who was only 14 years old, dared to roam the rivers and lakes alone with her stunning beauty. It was obvious that she was a courageous heroine, but at this time, she was shocked by such an incomprehensible thing.

​​

Is this drum sound strange, in the middle? Thinking of this, I became more and more certain, and decided to go to the center where the hollow drum sounds were connected.

​​

All the concentration in my heart was distracted by the sound of the drums. When I turned around, I suddenly faced a strange face with wrinkles and leeches!
