Chapter 20: Frost in dog days?(1/2)

Leaning under the old trees, the cool breeze at night gradually blew away the heat of the day.

Under the comfortable temperature, an inexplicable strange aura appeared, causing Xiang Yuan's eyelids to start fighting up and down unconsciously, and his breath became heavy and took a nap.

On the empty streets, the silent silence makes this bustling city during the day a little more cold and ruthless.

Da da da da da da da da da!

Suddenly, a sound of bamboo sticks falling to the ground sounded on the empty streets.

In extreme quiet, a sudden sound!

The pupils of several wild cats sleeping on the ridge of the room suddenly stood up, arched their bodies, and their hair exploded, as if they had seen something terrible.

At the end of the South Street, three long shadows were suddenly stretched out, and the clothes made of red and green cloth appeared ragged. Under the round hat, the face covered by shadows was exposed with a white mist.

Three tall and thin figures suddenly appeared strangely, swaying their bodies and moving forward step by step.

Every time their footsteps fall, they make a sound of bamboo sticks falling to the ground, as if the legs they use to walk are two bamboo sticks.

Taking slow steps, the tall and thin figure walked to the intersection of South Street and West Street.

Xiang Yuan, who was sitting under the old tree, naturally entered the eyes of the figure.

Swish!

The twisted shadow came to Xiang Yuan in just one step.

Three thin figures quietly surrounded the dozing warrior.

The cold breath blew, and a faint layer of white frost began to form on the old trees.

Woo...

As they approached Xiang Yuan's face little by little, the three thin figures seemed to be stretching out the hat.

"Ah Yeh!"

Perhaps it was because of the sudden cold that made Xiang Yuan feel a little uncomfortable, just as the figure was about to touch him.

Xiang Yuan's sneeze immediately made the three strange and thin shadows disappear.

Why is it suddenly so cold?

Xiang Yuan, who woke up, looked at the goose bumps on his arm and looked around in confusion.

And just as his eyes touched the old tree beside him.

The originally casual look changed suddenly!

"This is……"

He leaned his face closer to the old tree and looked at the layer of white frost on the bark that had not yet completely melted. Xiang Yuan suddenly turned around and glanced around.

Frost in the dog days?

The moment I saw the white frost on the old tree, I felt a chill in the back of the abyss.

Could it be that when I was sleeping, something strange and cold approached me, causing white frost to form on the bark of the tree?

Do Zhuyang have those dirty things now?

His expression was heavy, and Xiang Yuan still remembered everything he encountered in Linquan City.

If even Zhuyang was about to fall into that terrifying environment at this moment, I really need to go back to Guangling.

The patrol time was approaching soon. According to the previous reservation, all four groups of patrol disciples returned to the central street entrance.

"What's wrong? Why doesn't your face look very good?" After returning, Wang Bai leaned closer and asked.

"Nothing, is there anything going on tonight?"

Shaking his head, Xiang Yuan didn't want to tell Wang Bai about the strange situation that had already happened in Zhuyang City.

First of all, it is difficult to believe that such things have not been seen with your own eyes.

Secondly, he has no conclusive evidence for this matter. Could it be that the white frost on the tree that is almost melted?

“No, the task is easier than we thought.

It’s just that this cat’s meow is so annoying. It’s strange that there are still old cats crying in the spring in this dog days.”

With his brows frowned and looked at the beams on both sides, Wang Bai said strangely.

The cat's meow? Is it because the cat sees those things...

When I was a child, I always heard people say that cats can see some evil things. In such a stuffy dog ​​days, the old cat's cry is probably not as simple as calling spring.

Having thoughts in my heart, Xiang Yuan didn't say anything.

I greeted the disciples of Guanyi Sect and went back to the military camp to rest first. This matter can only be discussed for a long time.

During the subsequent patrol, Xiang Yuan was more vigilant and not only wandered back and forth in several patrol teams.

At the same time, he was secretly observing the sunshine shrouded by the night.

But what puzzled Xiang Yuan was that it seemed that since that unexpected encounter, the strangeness in Zhuyang City had completely disappeared. For more than a month, he had never noticed any clues again.

At noon that day, Wang Bai returned to the barracks with two jars of rice wine and a pack of crispy peanuts.

"Hehe, Lao Song from the kitchen gave me two jars of rice wine, two glasses?"

Grinning with a big mouth, Wang Bai walked to Xiang Yuan with a jar of wine. Regardless of whether his junior brother agreed or not, he took out two wine glasses the size of a fist from his arms.

"Send it? I'm afraid you're fooling Lao Song again and you want to teach him how to practice martial arts." Xiang Yuan glanced at Wang Bai, and Xiang Yuan was not polite. He grabbed a glass of rice wine filled with Wang Bai, raised his neck and poured it down.

The yellow wine was sour and astringent. After a glass of it, Xiang Yuan twitched his mouth and stuffed a handful of peanuts to suppress the sour taste.

"Nonsense! When did I fool Lao Song? I opened the bridge and started a horse. What I taught was a serious boxing posture."

After taking a sip of the rice wine, Wang Bai brows leapt. He liked to drink some wine on weekdays.

But after coming to the military camp, I couldn't go out at will, so I could only sneakily get some rice wine for cooking from the kitchen.

Knocking the peanuts, Xiang Yuan grabbed the jar of wine and continued half a glass of rice wine: "Stop, according to your teaching method, you will not be able to fight with others in less than three or five years.

The old Song man is really, you don’t miss him.

We can't stay here for long, so you can teach him two tricks to capture it. That thing focuses on techniques but not on practice. If you learn it, you can fight with people."

"Grabbing? It's okay. This thing makes perfect. Old Song has long hands and wide shoulders. It's enough to teach him a few tricks to catch them. " He nodded, Wang Bai tilted his neck and swallowed the rice wine in his cup.

"Senior Brother Xiang, Brother Wang, something happened!"

With a bang, the door of the barracks was knocked open by a disciple of Guanyi.

The disciple who rushed in suddenly frightened Wang Bai and almost sprayed out the rice wine he had just swallowed in again.

"What's wrong, I'm in a panic." Looking at the sweaty disciple, Xiang Yuan pressed down Wang Bai who was about to get angry and asked.

He shrank his neck and looked at Wang Bai with a red face. The sweaty disciple gasped for a few breaths and said, "Xiao Wu...Xiao Wu was beaten!"

"What?! Who did it?"

With a bang, he pinched the wine glass in his hand into pieces, and Wang Bai's big eyes were as big as a bronze bell.

Xiao Wu and Wang Bai are called by the same master, but they are late to get started, so their martial arts skills are not high.

However, this kid is flexible and serious in his daily life, and is deeply loved by many fellow brothers, including Wang Bai.

"A woman."

"Female?" When Wang Bai heard that Xiao Wu was beaten by a woman, the anger on his face disappeared a little.

Although Xiao Wu was late in the art, he was not a fool. Although his martial arts skills were not as good as those of masters like Xiang Yuan and Wang Bai, an ordinary man would definitely not be his opponent.

But now he was beaten by a woman.

It is obvious that this woman must be a trainer.

"How could someone beat him for no reason? Did Xiao Wu do something that made him teach him a lesson?" Xiang Yuan asked with his eyes moving.

"Uh... it seems that Xiao Wu said that woman has a thin waist and a big butt, so... it's easy to give birth to.

Then the woman heard it, so…”

"I deserve it! I'm a slut!" Since it was my first choice, Wang Bai's anger completely disappeared.

"But no matter how you say it is all fellow disciples, you'd better go and have a look." After jumping out of bed and putting on your shoes, Xiang Yuan and Wang Bai, led by their disciples, came to an open space more than 200 meters east of the military camp gate.

"Senior Brother Xiang and Senior Brother Wang are here!"

Seeing Xiang Yuan and Wang Bai coming, the disciples of Guanyi who were already surrounded here quickly welcomed the two of them.

In the circle of people, Xiao Wu, who had two red slaps on his face, was unconscious straight on the ground, and opposite were two men and women wearing white robes and a circle of gray-blue ribbons tied around their waists.

"It was him who beat Xiao Wu?" Looking at the petite woman opposite, who was still a little unhappy on her face, Wang Bai asked a disciple beside her.

"Well, it's her. We came back from taking a shower just now. When we walked to the camp gate, we happened to meet the man and woman coming in.

Then Xiao Wu muttered, but she didn't expect that this woman had excellent ear skills and she heard it.

Before we could come back to our senses, Xiao Wu fell down with two bangs."

Recalling the speed of the woman in white just now, He Changqing was still feeling a little scared.
