The Enemy (1)

After walking through the blood mist, the group settled in a small town inn nearby.

These twelve or thirteen-year-old girls were finally free again, and all of them were excited, sitting at the long table and chatting.

Speaking of the crimes suffered in Yan Village, they began to cry again.

It’s really noisy.

Huai Bai sighed in her heart and looked at the silent child beside her. Pei Yu had washed her body and changed into clean clothes, her big eyes were very clear, as if she had changed herself.

The more she looks at the child, the more satisfied she is, but she is too thin, just like a small milk cat.

(T/N: anything with milk before it as a description to an animal is like calling them babies so milk cat is basically kitten)

“Junior Sister,” Zhao Jianyi, who shut himself in the room, finally walked out, carrying a blindfold-shaped wooden armor piece, “I just made a Zhougong apparatus for you.” He put the armor piece on his eyes to demonstrate: “That’s it, after putting it on before going to bed, you can sleep peacefully all night.”

This thing is interesting.

The whole body of the armor piece is made of ebony wood, with fine patterns on the upper part, and inlaid gold patterns with plating edges. When Pei Yu took it, she found that it was as light as a feather, with a touch of warmth in her hand, and she couldn’t help but wonder: “Ah…”

Zhao Jianyi laughed loudly, “You have also discovered that, right? Although this is made of extremely heavy ebony wood, it is very light in the hand, you see,” he leaned over and pointed to the two protrusions on the armor piece. “I put two spirit devouring insects in these places, and then smeared the powder made of spirit stone on the surface of the armor piece. In this way, spirit devouring insects smell the spirit stone, and they will fly upwards desperately. But the weight of the armor piece is offset by the weight that they can bear, so it just stays in this state.”

He said it like it’s simple, but in fact many calculations and measurements are very difficult.

Pei Yu also knew a thing or two about this technique, and understood that even a disciple of the Mo Sect of Five Vessels, they might not be able to create this delicate gadget in just an hour.

This teenager is not simple.

Huai Bai looked at the dazed child and chuckled: “Where do your juniors know so much? Hurry up and pack up the things and send these children back to their hometowns. I’ll go alone to the Flower Viewing Festival.”

Zhao Jianyi cast his long eyebrows down, and let out a dejected “Um”.

Huai Bai was startled slightly, “Why? You want to go too? It’s just a bunch of bad old men talking nonsense, very boring.”

Zhao Jianyi shook his head, “Nothing.”

Chu Xiaotang watched his words and thoughts and hurriedly said, “Since the immortal has something important, I will be responsible for sending them back home.”

“No,” Huai Bai groaned: “You group of girls without the power to bind chickens are alone outside, and who knows what gangsters you will meet. In this way, Jianyi, if you want to go to the Flower Viewing Festival, you will show up alone. I will send them off.”

“Master, I am not interested in the Flower Viewing Festival itself, just…” Zhao Jianyi sighed along, “I heard from the people who went to the Flower Viewing Festival last time that every guest who entered the venue can receive ten top-quality spiritual stones. If I am absent, I will miss these ten spiritual stones for nothing, alas.”

Huai Bai laughed softly, “The last time I saw the flowers was in the East China Sea, the gang of Zhuangzi Saints had rich wealth, and it is not uncommon for one person to give out ten top-quality spirit stones. But this time it was in Xian City. Is there a clause in it that means saving?”

Zhao Jianyi opened his mouth, and it took a long time before he sighed in panic, “I have waited for ten years, but I won’t go.”

Huai Bai nodded with a smile, and moved her gaze to Pei Yu, and muttered: “Your junior sister can never walk around with you.”

“Why not? I built a wooden wagon for the Junior Sister, so that she can catch up with me.”

Huai Bai paused her cup’s hand slightly, and glanced at the enthusiastic young man. Somehow, Zhao Jianyi could see a bit of contempt from the faint look in her eyes.

She took a sip of the tea in her hand, and then slowly said, “I’m just worried that you’re tired of Pei Yu.”

Zhao Jianyi was hit hard: “Oh.”

Huai Bai took the child by the hand, very worried, “Your junior is a good girl.”

Zhao Jianyi echoed: “She is indeed a good girl.”

“It’s a pity that I was too kind and never fortified people. I really worry.” Huai Bai was worried, not willing to let the child run with Zhao Jianyi, and was also worried about leaving her alone.

“Master,” Pei Yu pursed her lips, “I’ll just stay here and wait for you.”

She just agreed to let Huai Bai leave, knowing that this person was about to attend the Flower Viewing Festival. For as long as a few months or as long as a year, the master will have no time to take care of her.

Huai Bai shook her head, “If you don’t succeed, you don’t succeed. I know you are compassionate of the teacher, but you are so young. If you are not looked after by someone, I don’t know what you will suffer.”

Pei Yu: “…” She struggled, “I can really be alone…”

Huai Bai touched her head, with more pity in her eyes, “Good girl, you are so caring, and you make the teacher reluctant.”

Pei Yu lowered her head, and finally chose to remain silent.

Chu Xiaotang interrupted and said, “Immortal chief, let me take care of my younger sister here.”

She thought that Huai Bai would decline, but she didn’t expect the immortal to look over with a smile, then nod her head: “Okay, come on.”

Is it so simple?

Huai Bai smiled and said, “Miss Xiao, you are such a good person.”

Chu Xiaotang pulled up the corners of her mouth stiffly, and silently swallowed words like “You are so kind to me, this is what I should do”, “The immortal doesn’t need to be so polite, let alone accept me as a guide”, “I am favored and flattered” and so on.

Zhao Jianyi also breathed a sigh of relief and thanked her: “Miss Xiao, you are such a good person! I will help you send the message to Jiang City first, so that your parents will no longer worry. I will trouble you to stay here and take care of my junior sister. “

“…As it should be.”

Huai Bai took Pei Yu’s hand and walked onto the street. The sky was fascinated by a drizzle. Huai Bai held a paper umbrella in her hand and leaned to the side to completely cover the child. The green feathers on her shoulders smeared with the rain, such as the clear waves are clear, and the green shadow obliquely invades the tender grass, which is very beautiful.

“Pei Yu, you stay here first. After a while, Jianyi will come and pick you up to Gushan.” Huai Bai looked down at the child, her green eyebrows narrowed, and with clear water in her eyes, “Take care of yourself.”

Pei Yu nodded and said goodbye, “Master, you must also take care of yourself.”

The child has a serious face, her short arms are raised up, her thin body is bent into a bow, and she salutes solemnly.

This short-legged and short-handed girl just pretends to be an adult, which is really cute.

Huai Bai covered her lips and couldn’t help but smile and bend a pair of apricot eyes.

“Hey, be obedient.” She left the umbrella for the child, and walked slowly into a curtain of drizzle and slanting wind, with long sleeves and slightly drums, the green and clear feathers blowing in the wind, and the waist was ringed by feathers. It sounds like a woman in the heavens.

Pei Yu was still bowing long, only slightly raised her head, watching the ray of spring go away.

Huai Bai seemed to feel something, and quietly looked back, jade rain washing her skin, overwhelming the city with light smoke and sparse willows. She smiled and beckoned to Pei Yu——

“I will definitely be back!”

Huai Bai has been away for a long time, and Pei Yu still respectfully leaned forward and did not move half a step.

Chu Xiaotang held the umbrella for her, looked up at the sky and the spring rain, looked down at the girl like a stone, and wanted to ask whether her waist was sore or not. After a while, her wrist holding the umbrella became sore, and the child still did not move, and finally couldn’t help reminding, “Younger sister, the immortal chief has gone.”

When do you want to stop worship?

Pei Yu straightened up, ignoring the hustle and bustle around her, and walked straight to the inn.

Chu Xiaotang was taken aback by her, and hurriedly ran away, holding an umbrella for her.

“Younger sister, do you want to eat candied haws?” Chu Xiaotang asked softly, pointing to the rosy candied haws. In her impression, no child does not like to eat this snack.

Pei Yu glanced at her coldly, her eyes icy.

Chu Xiaotang stood still immediately, her blood frozen, her whole body trembling, and her teeth trembling.

Such a terrifying look… She had never seen it even with those wicked men in Yan Village.

The umbrella in her hand fell silently to the ground, and a few muddy water splashed on her pale pink skirt, but she didn’t care, and all her brains were whirling ——terrible, terrible, terrible!

After she recovered, Pei Yu was no longer visible.

Chu Xiaotang picked up the umbrella and hurried forward hurriedly, shouting, “Little immortal!”

She changed her name without knowing it.

Pei Yu ignored the call behind her, picked up the ghost mask around her waist and placed it on her face, and then her body stretched like a flower branch, slowly becoming taller and thinner.

Chu Xiaotang ran over in a panic, and suddenly looked at the empty street where a woman in black robes stood upright. The child was nowhere to be seen.

She looked around, there was no fork in this street, how could the little immortal escape?

“Girl, did you see a little girl about seven or eight years old passing here?”

“Never.”

The woman’s voice was strange and hoarse and vague.

Chu Xiaotang became alert and stared at her. The woman’s figure is tall and thin, like a lone crane in the rain, with her long hair pouring down like a waterfall, and she vaguely sees the tiny silver threads in it, and her black robe is blowing in the wind.

“There is only one road here, how come you haven’t seen her?” Chu Xiaotang recalled Yan Village’s experience, and immediately shouted, “Are you a person who traffics children!”

The storm was violent, and the dark clouds rolled.

The woman turned a deaf ear and moved forward.

Chu Xiaotang hurried over, “Hey! You…”

Her voice stopped abruptly, her body couldn’t help shaking, her lips turned pale, and she looked at the woman in front of her in fear.

The mottled crimson scars on this woman’s face seemed to have been bitten by some fierce beast, and not even an inch of skin was intact.

There are only double autumn water-like eyes, flashing like cold stars, which makes people wonder whether she was a beauty before.

The woman glanced at Chu Xiaotang lightly, and slowly walked into the rain.

Chu Xiaotang stood blankly, holding her breath, for fear that if she accidentally made some movement, this Asura would raise her hand to kill her like crushing an ant——she must be able to do such a thing!

After a long time, Chu Xiaotang sat down on the ground, ignoring the dirt and sewage, and then dared to cry.

These people are so scary, oooooo.

Pei Yu walked to the outskirts and blew a whistle.

The drizzle was like smoke, and the paddy fields crisscrossed. She stood quietly with her hand in hand, and a little scalper came running with four hoofs, arching her hand affectionately.

“You know who I am.” She took off the ghost mask, still hung it around her waist, and then straddled the scalper’s back and drove it towards the blood mist.

Many years ago, Pei Yu was still an immortal outside the clouds at Gushan.

When she went out to travel, it coincided with the siege of the corpse puppet.

The tide of corpses is like the sea, and the small Fangcheng City is like an island in the sea, trapped for several days.

There is a corpse king among the corpse puppets, whose cultivation is close to the nascent soul’s power. He stopped all the blazing feathers from the city, and then surrounded it without killing, hoping to torture the people in the city to death.

The city lord and his followers were killed in battle, and the people in the city stood on the wall with pale faces, already giving up hope.

Dark clouds pressed against the city, and the sky was gloomy.

The girl in white is like a beam of light in despair, slowly walking down from the clouds. Holding a beautiful carmine blade, she said slowly: “Don’t be afraid.”

Don’t be afraid.

After speaking, she walked into the tide of corpses like a sea, one person, one knife.

The kind-hearted people saw that she was only a golden core cultivation base, and hurriedly said: “The immortal chief! There is a corpse king in it, which is close to nascent soul, and even the city lord is dead. You go in alone, and I’m afraid…”

The girl looked back and chuckled, lush eyebrows soothing, blooming like peach blossoms.

She only said: “Don’t be afraid.”

After three days and nights, the corpse puppets retreated like a tide, and the girl slowly walked out of the clouds with a blade.

She was dressed in white, not stained with dust. Only the slender and beautiful blade in her hand was still dripping with blood.

No one knows how a golden core monk killed the nascent soul corpse king. The corpse king is immortal, powerful and proficient in hundreds of types of Daoism.

But after three days and nights, he became a puddle of flesh.

More than just killing, this is simply torture.

Gushan’s rookie became famous in the first world war.

Later someone sang like this——

The sword is like a blood moon, and the head is a wine glass.

Going to the feast alone, drinking all the blood of the enemy.

As the wind and rain grew stronger, the girl sat on the back of the cow with a smile at the corner of her mouth, and rushed into the tossing blood mist without hesitation.

The lips moved, not “Don’t be afraid”, but——

“The hunt has begun.”
