The host is dedicated to her career

Chapter 299 Extra Story Red Scarlet (2)

"Who!" The man in black yelled and retreated to the window.

There was silence in the room, except for the breathing of the two girls.

He took a look inside the room, and indeed did not find the existence of the third person, and after a little hesitation, he went through the window and left.

Only after the man in black robe left did Jiang Fei let go of his tense nerves. He looked back at Chi Ye who was sitting up on the couch and became worried: "I need to be more careful recently. If there are no accidents, the person should be the one who has been in trouble in Qingshan City these days." It’s going to be a raging decapitated demon.”

"Decapitated demon?" Chi Ye rubbed her chin with a serious expression. She got off the couch and walked to the window, looking at the silver moonlight outside the window, wondering, "He followed us back, and Chacha and I were targeted by the decapitated demon." ?"

The decapitated demon came and went without a trace, and the guards of the city lord's mansion couldn't do anything about him. This was something Qingshan City had never encountered before.

Jiang Fei came to Chi Ye's side, and he followed Chi Ye's line of sight to look at the distant woods, and then he was attracted by a red symbol in his peripheral vision.

It was a blood-red circular mark with jagged suns painted on the outside and a skull inside. It was reflected on the wooden railing of the window, emitting a little black air.

"This is the mark left by the severed head." Jiang Fei stretched out her hand to touch the mark, and the mark disappeared with a light touch. "It seems that he regards you and Bai Chacha as prey."

Being targeted.Chi Ye's hand hanging by her side trembled, she closed the wooden window maintaining her superficial calm, turned around and said to Jiang Fei, "Good Jiang Fei, can you check out the decapitated demon with me now?"

"Hmm." Jiang Fei nodded imperceptibly, staring at the closed wooden window with even more worry in her heart.

The small wooden window in Chi Ye's room couldn't even accommodate a four- or five-year-old child, but the decapitated demon could easily come in. Could it be that the decapitated demon is not a human?monster?

At the third watch of the month, the moonlight receded from the window, Chi Ye put down the messy thoughts in his head, lay back on the couch, closed his eyes and rested.

The dawn is like a sword, splitting the night, and the sun rushes in through the opening, filling the sky and the earth.

Chi Ye suddenly opened his eyes and sat up, the white tea lying beside him was no longer there, only Jiang Fei was flipping through the book that she bought cheaply from a bookstall a few days ago by the couch.

Hearing the sound, Jiang Fei closed the book, looked at Chi Ye and said, "A Ye, when were you born on the Jiazi day of the Bingyin month in the Jiazi year?"

"Bingyinshi, what happened?"

"Bingyin?" The man stretched out his hand to touch the tear mole under the corner of his eye, his eyes were clear, "No wonder, it really is like this."

"Why is it so true? You're just talking about it." Chi Ye didn't know why, so she put down her hair and held her face close to her, "Quickly tell the truth."

Blinking her eyes, Jiang Fei was a little dazed facing the approaching Chi Ye, and said after a while, "I went to the mortuary and study room of the City Lord's Mansion last night, and I found out that the women who died were all in the dark years Born, I also thought that A Chi was also there, so I asked."

"Am I born in a cloudy year and a moon? What is a cloudy year and a moon?"

"Well, not only that, now it seems that you were born in a cloudy day and a cloudy day, with four pillars of pure yang."

"Tai Chi Bagua runs, Yin and Yang run, one rises and the other declines, one is Yang and the other is Yin."

"It's rare to see a pure yin person, so the decapitated demon followed here that night, and it turned out that it was all because of A Chi."

"Achi, I think that the decapitated demon must have killed the Yinnian Yinyue woman to practice sorcery or to heal her injuries. Mostly it was the latter, and she must have fled to Qingshan City from other places."

"Now the decapitated demon has finally met a pure yin person. He will definitely try his best to take your life. I stopped him from doing it last night, and he will come prepared next time. You must not leave me these days Sight."

"Fei is so clingy, so naturally she won't let me out of sight." Chi Ye felt a little amused, "Or let Fei follow me when I go to the toilet."

"That's not necessary!" The man immediately narrowed his eyes in embarrassment, blushed and slapped Chi Ye's hand away, "Ah Ye always talks like this... so generous? Just tell me, absolutely not Same with others!"

"Okay, I understand." Chi Ye raised his hand to his forehead, feeling very helpless.

Father Chi went out hunting every day, starting before dawn.Chi's mother embroiders and makes silk at home, and sells a hundred yuan to Chi Chihua every month.

Chi Chi is fourteen but did not go to school, illiterate, idles around all day long, and likes to steal.Chi Ye has never been to an academy, but because of Jiang Fei's hands-on teaching, he can write good calligraphy and can also write poems and lyrics.

After simply tying her hair, Chi Ye pushed open the room, and saw Chi's mother sitting alone at the door, embroidering her "Flowers and Moon" peony embroidery under the moon.

Seeing Chi Ye coming out of the room, Chi's mother rolled her eyes and snorted coldly, but did not speak.

There was not much food left on the table, and it had already turned white. After glancing at Chi Ye, he walked past Chi's mother and walked out the door.

Bai Chacha had been waiting outside the door for a long time, when he saw Chi Ye appearing and trotted forward: "A Ye, I heard that the Xiangyun Inn still needs staff, shall we go and see today?"

Inns usually recruit men, but Chi Ye felt that Bai Chacha was in a daze and immediately objected: "No, the inn doesn't look for women."

"Accepted." Bai Chacha said firmly, "I saw the Xiangyun Inn recruiting female workers before. The clothes shop is closed, and there are many people looking for jobs these days. Let's go and have a look earlier, let's talk about it later."

No matter where it is, which city lord is in power, women have always had a harder time finding a job than men.

Hearing what Bai Chacha said, Chi Ye had no reason to object. She stepped up to leave, but found that Bai Chacha was carrying a burden on her back: "Chacha, what are you?"

"Ah, this, I'm just not used to living outside, I'd better go home." In fact, the most important thing is Chi's father and Chi's mother's unfriendly attitude. Bai Chacha always feels restless and uncomfortable when he stays there .

"En." Chi Ye responded noncommittally.She knew what Bai Chacha cared about.

Xiangyun Inn is the largest inn in Qingshan City, and I heard that the owner behind it is the City Lord's Mansion.Although the Xiangyun Inn has only two or three guests every day, it has stood firm in Qingshan City for more than twenty or thirty years.

With red paint and green tiles, Xiangyun Inn is more luxurious than the surrounding houses, and it is located in the middle of rows of shops, which is abrupt and weird.

Today's Xiangyun Inn is unexpectedly lively, the entire lobby on the first floor is full of young men and women in lavender attire, and they all have extraordinary bearing.

It was the first time in Qingshan City that there was such a person wearing a uniform attire with a sword on his waist. Not surprisingly, many people stopped and watched.

"Hey, should the two girls stay in the hotel or play the top?" Xiaoer's slender voice yelled, bringing Bai Chacha and Chi Ye back to their senses.

When the inn was busy, Bai Chacha met Xiaoer's eyes and grabbed the cuffs in embarrassment: "Neither of them, we heard that Xiangyun Inn is recruiting workers, both male and female, do you still want to recruit?"

"Ah, that's it, I recruited." Xiaoer's attitude was friendly, and he was not dissatisfied with being disturbed in business, "You two girls, please, my shopkeeper is inside."

The purple-clothed people in Xiangyun Inn wear tender white cloud picture hosta on their heads, belts embroidered with blue fretwork around their waists, and white edges on their cuffs. They are graceful and graceful, just like immortals.

The man who was sitting in the middle and drinking the inn's special tea suddenly raised his head and looked at the place where the two of Bai Chacha had stood, his eyes were sharp and full of inquiry.

Seeing his sudden sharp eyes, the people around him tightened their hearts, and put their right hand on the hilt of the sword at their waist: "What's wrong, big brother?"

The eldest brother put down the teacup in his hand, retracted his gaze and shook his head: "It's okay."

The owner of Xiangyun Inn is a man in his 40s, wearing a brown brocade robe, sitting in front of a long table and playing a lyre.

The sound of the piano is slow, like a stream flowing in the mountains, cold to the heart.

"He played "Twilight Zhe"." Jiang Fei said.

It was the first time that Chi Ye knew that Jiang Fei knew the rhythm, so he hooked Gou Jiangfei's palm with his little finger.

The shopkeeper waited until the two walked in and plucked a flat note. He pressed the trembling strings with both hands and looked up: "There are still two cleaning girls missing. What are you doing? Two taels of silver a month."

One tael of silver is equivalent to fifteen hundred copper plates, two taels of silver a month, one hundred wen a day.

When Bai Chacha heard this, without even thinking about it, he nodded and agreed: "Yes!" Huanyifang only has [-] coins a day, how can there be no reason not to agree to such a good thing?
"Little girl, what about you?" Seeing that Chi Ye was silent, the housekeeper asked proactively.

"I'll follow her." Chi Ye tilted his head slightly to look at Bai Chacha with bright eyes.Xiangyun Inn does not have any business on weekdays, but the shopkeeper still pays them such a high salary, she does not believe it is so simple.Chacha agreed so quickly, she can't just leave Chacha here, can she?

"Okay, if that's the case, let's get to work right away. It just so happens that all the rooms on the second floor need to be tidied up for the disciples of the Qingfengmen. You two should start tidying up from the left and the other from the right."

"Yes."

By the time Bai Chacha came out of the shopkeeper's study, the disciples of Qingfengmen on the first floor had disappeared.According to the shopkeeper's order, Chi Ye and Bai Chacha started to tidy up the house.

The wooden door of Xiangyun Inn is carved with patterns, and the wood used is all high-quality mahogany.

Push the door open, because usually no one has a layer of dust in the room.The luggage of the disciples of the Qingfeng Sect was placed on the couch in the room, and there was no one in the room, so they probably left the inn temporarily.

Chi Ye started from the dressing table, wiped it with water and a clean towel, Jiang Fei looked around the room casually, and closed the door smoothly.

Jiang Fei wandered around the room, and unconsciously walked to the luggage of the disciples of the Qingfeng Sect.He stared at the luggage for a long time, but finally couldn't hold back and opened it.

The four corners of the burden were untied, and there were some bottles, jars and shiny stones in the burden.Holding the stone, Jiang Fei felt a breath rushing into his body, which made him very comfortable, and the smell from those bottles and cans made him even more eager.

Chi Ye noticed that Jiang Fei was abnormal and quickly dropped the rag and came over. He grabbed Jiang Fei's hand and asked with concern: "What's wrong? Are you okay?"

"It's okay." Withdrawing from that sense of comfort, Jiang Fei put down the beautiful stone in her hand and held Chi Ye's hand with her backhand, "A Ye, this thing seems to be able to fill up my strength. I feel that the Qingfengmen that the shopkeeper said today Man, I might have a relationship with him."

"Well, what do you want me to do?"

"No need." Jiang Fei shook her head, her tone was gentle, "It's okay even if there is a relationship, I don't want to know anything about the past."

"Well, I'll find a chance to get you some stones like this." Chi Ye smiled unconsciously, and she shook Jiang Fei's hand, "There are still many rooms to clean up, please help me."

"Okay, it's an honor."

Chi Ye smiled slightly.She felt that Jiang Fei must have been a flirtatious young master before, otherwise how could she be so good at coaxing people.

City Lord's Mansion.

In the Wuzuo room, there are more than a dozen corpses placed in the center of the room, all covered with white cloth, and when the white cloth is uncovered, these corpses are all decapitated.

Lu Chen, the chief disciple of the Qingfeng sect, walked around the corpse for a few times. With his left hand, Cheng Jianjue circulated the aura to his fingertips. He pointed his fingertips at the forehead of a corpse, and after a while, black air overflowed from the nostrils of the corpse.

Surprise flashed in Lu Chen's eyes, and anxiety rose in his eyes: "It's demonic energy. It seems that some demons have come to Qingshan City. The situation is serious. Please also strengthen the inspection of Qingshan City. We have to hurry up and catch it as soon as possible." Stay with the demons, otherwise with the speed of the demons killing people, we may not be his opponents by then."

"Demons?" City Lord Qingshan became dizzy when he heard these two words, "Aren't the demons all in the Nine Heavens Demon Realm? Why did they appear in my small Qingshan City?"

"The Nine Heavens Demon Realm is just a place where the demons live, and it's common for a few bastards to come out occasionally." Lu Chen replied calmly, then turned to look at Zuo Zuo standing next to him, "Check these corpses, what common features do you find? ?"

"Yes." The author recalled every detail of the corpse, "The grass miners found that the blood of these corpses had been sucked dry, but they did not turn into mummies like the usual corpses. In addition, their necks were obviously cut off, but each The hearts of the corpses are missing, and they have no other trauma except that their heads have been chopped off."

In order to verify Wu Zuo's words, Lu Chen ran his fingers across the main artery of a fresh corpse, and cut a nail-deep wound. As expected, no blood flowed out, and even the coagulated blood stains in the blood vessels could not be seen.

Digging out hearts and drinking blood—then the demons will not let go of the souls of these people. Before, he thought that the souls of these people were still in the place where they were alive, but now it seems that they were swallowed by the demons.

"I see." Withdrawing his hand, he covered the body with a white cloth again, "Don't worry, the city lord, I will set up a magic formation in Qingshan Town with all my juniors in the next few days, as long as the demons appear, they will definitely kill him."

"Okay, okay! Please trouble the elder."

"It should be, then Lu Chen will not bother, and I will take my juniors and sisters to prepare for subduing the demons."

"Okay, Immortal Elder, I will see you off."

Qingfengmen is the closest sect of cultivating immortals to Qingshan Town, because the recent murders in the city were completely beyond the capacity of the city lord's mansion, so the Qingshan city lord invited the people from Qingfengmen to come here.

After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, Lu Chen arranged for his juniors and younger sisters to patrol Qingshan City, while he went back to the inn to get the necessary spiritual stones and magic weapons to set up an array.

I stayed in the City Lord's Mansion for a long time, and it was already dark when I returned to Xiangyun Inn.

Walking up to the second floor, as soon as he opened the door, Lu Chen noticed an unusual aura. It wasn't a demon, a ghost, or a demon. It couldn't be said, but it definitely wasn't a human aura.

"Little two."

"Hey, here comes the guest officer." The man on the first floor hurried upstairs, seeing Lu Chen's uneasy expression, he thumped in his heart, "Guest officer, the room has been cleaned today, you can rest assured. Guest officer...you Is something missing?"

The two little girls didn't look like thieves in the morning, did they?Xiao Er secretly thought, what was lost, the other party's face was so cold.

"No." Seeing that the second child, Lu Chen, restrained his momentum and slowed down his tone, "Who came in to clean the room."

"It's a girl named Chi Ye, it doesn't matter if you lose something."

"Well, okay, you go down."

"Oh, it's the guest officer."

Watching Xiao Er go downstairs and Lu Chen walked in the door, he repeated the name of Xiao Er's mouth in his heart: Chi Ye?Was it the girl he saw this morning?But that girl has the aura of a living person, and she is obviously alone. Why is there always a special aura around her?I can't say it, I just feel that the girl is being pestered by something.

what is itso special.
