When Qi Lu woke up, he found himself lying on his back on the beach, there was not even a figure around, only the sound of the waves accompanying him.
A fragrant fragrance came into his nose, Qi Lu subconsciously put his right hand in front of his nose and sniffed, and his expression couldn't help but add a little dignified.
This fragrance is not the fragrance that should be in the world, it is the fragrance of the peach fairy flower produced in Kunlun Shenshan.
Qi Lu couldn't help but feel sad in his heart, and he used all his strength to shout at the sea: "Concubine, is it really you?"
There was no answer, only the sea breeze whimpering.
Qi Lu returned home disappointed, and as soon as he opened the door, he found that Lao Wu had woken up, and he was sitting at the table drinking.
Seeing Qi Lu's wet and embarrassed appearance, Lao Wu said in surprise: "Don't tell me, I went to sea to find that dragon again."
"Nope."
Qi Lu sighed and told Lao Wu what had just happened truthfully.
"You're confused, she's already dead" Lao Wu emphasized the dead word in his words, he looked at Qi Lu with a complicated expression on his face.
"We all hope for a miracle, but that's not possible."
"Then you tell me" Qi Lu stood up abruptly and said excitedly: "Life and life, life and life, morning and twilight, and admiration."
You tell me, who else knows this, who else, who?"
"Hey, hey, don't get excited" Lao Wu's face turned red.
"What are you arguing about" It turned out that the voice of Qi Lu and the two woke up Ding Xiaolan, who was sleeping next door, and she was busy getting dressed and getting up to check what was going on.
The two of them stopped talking for a while, Qi Lu turned around and went back to the room to sleep, he was physically and mentally exhausted.
"It's going to be dawn this day, and he still has to sleep lazy" Seeing that Qi Lu ignored her, Ding Xiaolan turned her eyes to Lao Wu again.
"I'll go for a walk."
The speed at which Lao Wu went out was simply a gust of wind.
"What's wrong with you two" Ding Xiaolan stood in place in a daze, confused.
It wasn't until the sun set that Qi Lu got up from the bed, and he regained his spirits.
Ding Xiaolan had already prepared dinner, and the three of them ate at the table, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was a little awkward, as if they all had ghosts in their hearts.
When Qi Lu put down the dishes and chopsticks, he said calmly: "After eating, let's go to Xu Chunlin's house." ” "Is it to discuss with him about eliminating demons" Seeing that Qi Lu spoke, Ding Xiaolan didn't mention how happy he was.
"Pretty much."
Qi Lu responded lightly.
Xu Chunlin's house is a relatively messy place, with overgrown weeds in front of the door, and some waste paper and garbage can be seen on the surface from time to time.
Under the eaves of the roof are cobwebs that seem to have not been cleaned for many years, and strange characters and symbols are scribbled all over the exterior walls.
However, Qi Lu and Lao Wu both recognized these words and symbols as Taoist mantras, but they were too messy.
"The surname Xu is too lazy, doesn't he have a wife to clean up" Ding Xiaolan muttered quietly, she hates people who don't pay attention to hygiene the most.
Lao Wu replied: "She doesn't have a wife." ” "It turned out to be an old bachelor."
Ding Xiaolan's brows frowned imperceptibly.
"There's a mechanism here," Qi Lu suddenly motioned for them to be more vigilant.
Ding Xiaolan asked in surprise: "How do you know?"
Qi Lu smiled faintly, and the person stood in place and stared at the eaves.
Suddenly, there was a strange sound from the roof, and then a behemoth sprang out from under the eaves.
Ding Xiaolan looked at it fixedly, and was so frightened that his soul did not possess his body, this monster turned out to be a big python the size of a bucket At this moment, it was twisting its body and attacking them "Ah" Ding Xiaolan couldn't help but scream, and subconsciously hid behind Qi Lu.
"Are you playing this trick to scare people again" Qi Lu was not panicked, he had already made a trick and began to chant the incantation.
At the same time, Lao Wu also struck at the python with a spirit rune, which was sticking to the snake's seven inches.
The python suddenly collapsed into a ball, lying on the ground and revealing its original form, it was nothing more than a fake snake with paper paste.
"There's a guest here."
Xu Chunlin's male duck voice came from the house, followed by a messy noise, as if he was in a hurry to pack things.
Qi Lu said loudly: "Master Xu, I'm Qi Lu, come and hang out." ” "Please come in."
The door opened, and Xu Chunlin's shadow was unusually long.
The mess in the house is worse than the yard.
Ritual vessels and rune paper are piled up everywhere.

In some corners, there are also the remains of animal bones.
The only few chairs were covered in dust, and there was a foul smell coming from the room.
"Hehe, why is Xiao Qi here?"
"I slept all day, and I wanted to talk to you at night."
Qi Lu responded politely, and sat down on the dirty chair very naturally.
After taking their seats, the two looked at each other with their own hearts, Qi Lu smiled indifferently and said, "Master Xu's Shishen technique is the essence of Japanese onmyoji." ” "Passing the prize."
Xu Chunlin smirked and said, "The little skill of carving insects can't hide the eyes of the two. ” "Does Master Xu usually welcome guests in this way?"
"Where, where.
It's just that I was idle and bored today, and I was bumped into by Mr.
Qi.
Xu Chunlin was a little embarrassed, and then explained: "Normally, if I did this, Village Chief Yan would have reprimanded me a long time ago. ” The smell in the room became more and more unpleasant, and Ding Xiaolan covered her nose unnaturally.
"Why, don't you get used to it," Qi Lu asked with concern.
"It's a bit overwhelming."
Qi Lu swept his gaze into the room, and said with a smile: "Do you know where this smell comes from?"
After speaking, he pointed to a large vat in the west corner of the room and said, "You will know when you lift the lid." ” Xu Chunlin's facial expression was even more embarrassed, Ding Xiaolan glanced at them with some confusion, and asked, "Isn't it another snake in it?"
"Of course not, I promise that the contents of the tank do not pose any danger to your life."
Ding Xiaolan hesitated and walked to the vat, hesitated for a few seconds, and finally made up her mind to remove the lid on the face.
"Ahh Ding Xiaolan almost threw up, and she ran out of the door to get some fresh air with the bitter water that came out of her stomach.
Xu Chunlin re-closed the lid indifferently, and the unpleasant fishy smell also faded a little.
"You raise these things, it's related to spells" A seemingly casual sentence, Qi Lu seemed to be referring to something.
"Huh."
Xu Chunlin laughed dryly, without words.
"Presumably it was used to deal with that dragon" Seeing that Xu Chunlin didn't answer directly, Qi Lu simply made his words clear.
Xu Chunlin suddenly looked surprised and said, "How do you know?"
"Don't forget, you and I are both cultivators."
The dragon is the head of the scales, it can fly and do anything, it is not only an immortal mount, but also can guard the waters.
On the surface, the dragon seems to be afraid of nothing but gods and demons, but in fact, it is not, because its body is too large, so it is afraid of parasites like maggots.
There is such a story recorded in Liao Zhai Zhiwei, saying that it was the king of Jiaozhou who was ordered to send an envoy to the Ryukyu Kingdom.
When the boat sailed into the middle of the sea, it passed by a sea area called Qingshuitan, and the boatman warned the people on the boat not to make loud noises, and at the same time kept grabbing rice and throwing it into the sea.
It turned out that this was a dragon pool, and the dragons under the water saw the white rice spilled and mistook it for maggots, because they were afraid that they would burrow into the scale armor and parasitize on their bodies, so they were all so frightened that they lay down in the water and did not dare to move.
Therefore, the ship was able to cross the sea safely and not be knocked over by the dragon when it surfaced.
Xu Chunlin's secret was revealed by Qi Lu, his expression looked very unnatural, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
Qi Lu sneered, and then exposed his lies: "In this way, what you said to me at the beginning was a lie to me."
Xu Chunlin's face sank, and he said a little angrily: "What do you mean by this?"
"Before you went to the sea to catch monsters, didn't you tell me that monster was a ghost, and now it seems that you already know the true identity of the monster" "This" Xu Chunlin was speechless.
"Let's open the skylight and say something."
Qi Lu stared at Xu Chunlin, as if he wanted to see through his soul.
"Xiao Qi, I don't understand what you're talking about, there's a misunderstanding here."
"Maybe it's a misunderstanding."
Qi Lu said with a stern expression: "But before you explain, can you clarify another thing?"
"Another thing" Xu Chunlin was hesitant, he couldn't figure out Qi Lu's thoughts, so he had to continue to pretend to be confused.
"More than 30 years ago, the sea eye has been buried by the villagers.
But why do you want to dig it up again, it's more than half a year to dig it?"
"Ah, how do you know" Xu Chunlin's heart beat a drum, he couldn't calm down anymore.
"If you want people to know, you can't do it unless you do.

How I know is not the point, the key is whether Master Xu can be honest with each other. ” Xu Chunlin's gaze kept dodging, and he could see that he was hesitating in his heart.
Qi Lu snickered in his heart, he could know that this was thanks to Lao Wu's investigation in the past few days, so he knew that Xu Chunlin was secretly digging that sea eye.
"This dragon has practiced for at least a thousand years, and it can't be eradicated by one person.
You can't, neither can I, neither can your dead father" "You're investigating me" Xu Chunlin couldn't help but exclaim, there was already resentment in his single eye.
"Master Xu, don't be nervous, I have no ill will towards you."
Qi Lu said indifferently: "I have a habit of doing things, that is, I like to know a little more about the truth before doing things. ” "How much do you know about me?"
"Not too much."
Qi Lu said: "According to the information I have now, your father was willing to go to the sea to eliminate demons, I'm afraid it wasn't just a simple matter of wanting to eliminate harm for the people."
"You are not allowed to slander my father" Xu Chunlin was completely enraged by Qi Lu, he slammed the table and stood up, his teeth gritted "Gege".
Ding Xiaolan, who was outside the house, heard the quarrel inside the house and hurriedly returned to the house, she looked at all this in front of her nervously, a little overwhelmed.
Qi Lu was not afraid, he smiled and motioned for Xu Chunlin to sit down.
"Master Xu, I'm not here to embarrass you today."
Seeing that his face seemed to soften, Qi Lu continued: "It's not once or twice that you have fought with that dragon, you know very well that it is far more powerful than we imagined, so you thought of using maggots to deal with it." ” "Yes."
Xu Chunlin does not deny this.
"But it's not a surefire way either."
Qi Lu also said: "Only when we put aside our prejudices and join forces to deal with it can we have the certainty of victory." ” "Then what do you want to do" Qi Lu's words hit his heart, so he had to listen patiently to Qi Lu's words. i0 t1706231537:
