The Glass Maiden

Chapter 9 Sifeng ()

"Chu Xuanji!"

There was a loud roar behind him, and Xuanji suddenly returned to her senses. Turning around, it was Yu Sifeng and Zhong Minyan, both of them were holding a pile of things in their hands, and dozens of people were carrying sacks behind them.

"Ah, you... have you all bought it?" she asked startledly.

Zhong Minyan walked over, frowned and looked at the honey on the ground and the torches and pots that were no longer available. "What the **** are you doing?" His questioning voice was weak. Oh my God, I knew that this dead kid couldn't do anything well! Can't count on her at all!

Xuanji stretched out her hand and sighed: "It's not my fault." She said confidently.

"You still said!" He went crazy.

"Then I'll go buy a new one right away." After that, she turned and left, but was stopped by Yu Sifeng.

"This is...?" He looked at the huge glass fish tank, his eyes flickering behind the mask. After a long while, he stretched out his hand and touched it gently on the tank, but he shrank back as if he had touched something stinging.

Xuanji said: "They said it was a monster... a monster with a long fish tail."

When Zhong Minyan heard the words, he turned his head to look, but saw the man in the tank flicked his tail and swam away. He was taken aback and backed a few steps before exaggeratingly exclaimed: "It's really a monster! Fishtail!"

Yu Sifeng slowly shook his head, and for a long time, he said in a low voice, "It's not a demon...this is the Yuren, the Yuren in the South China Sea."

Xuanji said "Ah", "I know the shark people. It is said that they are very good at weaving and embroidering. They can sing on the night of the full moon, and everyone who hears them is ecstatic. And when they cry, tears will come. Become a pearl."

She was like a few treasures, speaking in a serious manner. Just after she finished speaking, she started to knock on the clapper again. Someone was yelling, and the crowd gathered there at once.

Xuanji was knocked to a sway, and she was about to fall, and she was suddenly pulled on her arm. She raised her head, but saw Yu Sifeng standing in front of her, holding her arm in her hand, but her eyes had been staring at the glass jar, thoughtfully wondering what to think.

The clappers over there have already begun to speak: "Dear fathers and villagers, thanks to our county grandfather Yingming Shenwu, who summoned all the heroes and heroes for a month, finally caught the man-eating demons on the mountain! The mage sealed this evildoer in a glazed pot of magical artifact and sent it to Beijing in a few days. Everyone wants to smash it, so you have to get it early!"

As soon as this remark came out, the sentiment was passionate. The demons are haunting Lutai Mountain, and they have harmed one of the people, and everyone hates them. As soon as I heard that the monster was caught, no matter the truth or not, someone had picked up a rock from the ground and threw it into the tank. The shark was floating in the water and hiding, looking very pitiful.

"Huh? Isn't the evil monsters tengu and Gu eagles? They are not shark people." Xuanji was inexplicable, seeing that shark man was hit by a big rock, the water suddenly became red, and I don't know where it hit. She couldn't bear it.

"He's just a scapegoat." Yu Sifeng said coldly, "Demon, betrayer, yamen, can't, and above, cross, can only, find someone casually, scorpion, come to charge, temporarily, give the above one , Explain."

"What about the real monsters? Just post a notice saying that the monsters have been eliminated, and people will go up the mountain in peace. Will they be eaten?" Zhong Minyan also felt incredible. They have been living in Shouyang Mountain, taking cultivation of immortality as their lifelong goal, and they don't understand all the laws and rules in the world.

Yu Sifeng said indifferently: "The distant water cannot be saved, but it is near the fire. Now, they can only deal with the blame from the top first. As for the dead, then they will use other countermeasures."

Zhong Minyan shook his head. Seeing the blood and water in the glazed glass jar, and the shark who did not know where he was hiding, he couldn't help feeling sad, and sighed: "I hope to catch the demon tonight smoothly, at least...return him innocence."

"With me, it will go smoothly." Yu Sifeng said so proudly, in exchange for Zhong Minyan's cold snort.

Xuanji looked at him admiringly with sparkling eyes, "You are so amazing, you know a lot!"

Yu Sifeng coughed and couldn't tell whether he blushed through the mask.

"I'm just, yes, often, outside, walking around, seeing a lot, that's all." He lifted the salt bag he was holding in his arms. "Let's go, let's take honey, torches, etc., After filling up, go back to the restaurant."

After he finished speaking, his sleeves trembled slightly, and a light red pill was sandwiched between his fingers. Taking advantage of everyone's attention, he flicked it into the glass jar with his fingers. Whether it can live until tomorrow depends on the good fortune of this shark.

He turned around silently and walked away.

****

When I returned to the restaurant, the sky's "color" was already dark, and the red clouds were thousands of miles away, so that everyone's faces were red.

Chu Yinghong saw that Xuanji's hair was wet, her sleeves were still dripping, and she couldn't help wondering: "You kid, did you go to the river to buy honey? How did it happen."

Xuanji shook her head, "I saw one on the street..."

Before she finished speaking, Yu Sifeng interrupted: "She, walking, does not look at people, was splashed on her head, she was washing a bowl of water."

No way! Xuanji stared at him in surprise, he lied!

Yu Sifeng said calmly: "She is almost, and, without a soul, the same. Walking, she is in a daze."

Xuanji blinked and hesitated to refute, but Chu Yinghong's head was "rubbed" hard, she smiled and sighed: "You kid, somehow have a snack on other things. Just wipe your hair dry, let's Find an inn right away, change your clothes and leave."

Xuanji stayed for a long time, and finally gave an "Oh" and decided not to expose Yu Sifeng's lies.

When he was leaving, Yu Sifeng approached her and whispered: "Don't, talk to them, talk about the shark people."

"Why?" Xuan Ji was curious.

He whispered: "These adults don't like them, they are alien. We can't save him."

"Ah? Are you saying you intend to save him?"

He nodded, "I have my own way. Look, watch."

Xuanji chuckled, learning from his staggering emphasis, and said: "Good, good, good!"

After speaking, he knocked on the forehead with his knuckles, and the pain made her unable to speak for a long time. He smiled again, flicked his sleeves, and turned and followed the adults out of the restaurant.

Suddenly Xuanji realized that this boy was not as annoying as the boy she met at first, and couldn't help catching up, and asked, "Sifeng, how old are you?"

He was startled suddenly, and the emphasis of his words changed: "You...you call, call me, what?!"

She smiled slightly: "Sifeng, isn't your name Yu Sifeng? I'm not wrong."

This is not the problem! He was speechless. For a long time he said: "You, you ask, ask me this, what do you do?!"

"Aren't we companions? Can't you ask?"

He was silent for a while before he said: "Well, then you, speak first."

She was very cheerful: "My name is Chu Xuanji, I am eleven years old this year."

"Little kid, one." He sneered.

"You are a kid too." She laughed, "You are not an adult."

He snorted: "Who said that, I, thirteen years old, long ago, my lord."

Che, only thirteen years old, what's so proud of. She hadn't told him that the big brother was 18 years old, and even Zhong Minyan was one year older than him!

"Si Feng, why do you always wear a mask on your face? Isn't it boring?" Xuan Ji stretched out her hand to "touch" and "touch" the hideous face, but he was coldly pushed away.

"It's none of your business, don't touch it."

Xuanji withdrew her hand in a somewhat slanderous manner. To be honest, she was a bit unable to get off stage when she was rejected so hard.

He probably also felt that he was not good at speaking, and he paused for a while before he said: "This mask can't be touched by anyone. Nor, just take it off." After thinking about it, he added: "This is from Lize Palace. ,rule."

Xuanji shrugged, "I haven't seen what you look like yet. In case you see me on the road later, you know me, but I don't know you, how embarrassing."

He didn't speak for a long time, but his ears slowly turned red. After a while, he whispered: "I recognize you, so it's fine."

What does that mean? Xuanji didn't understand at all.

Zhong Minyan had been listening to them silently in front of him, and suddenly turned his head and said: "I heard that people in Lize Palace can take off their masks when they are 18 years old, but they still have to wear them on important occasions. ?"

Yu Sifeng said coldly: "It turns out that you know quite well. This is what I sent and the rules. I don't want to say more."

Seeing him so arrogant, Zhong Minyan couldn't help but feel a little disgusted in his heart. Although he came along and admired his extensive knowledge, his character and temperament were so terrible, he wanted to lift his nostrils into the sky.

Listening to him chatting with Xuanji just now, he was very upset with the superior tone. Xuanji is an absent-minded person, she doesn't care, but he cares a lot! How can the people from Lize Palace climb to the Shaoyang style!

"I'm not interested anyway!" He blocked it back hard, turning his head to silence.

Yu Sifeng was choked by him so he stiffened his neck and pretended to be dumb, and stopped talking.

Xuanji looked helplessly at this, and then at that. She wanted to talk, but she didn't know what to say, so she slipped to Chu Yinghong silently and listened to the adults about the arrangements for catching monsters at night.
