Under the setting sun, the lake surface shone with rugged light.
On the glittering waterway, a awning boat moved forward slowly.
In addition to Xiao Lin and others, there is also a little boat girl.
The residence Xun Niang arranged for Ning and Xiao Lin was not far from Su Yi's study. According to this little boat girl, it only takes about ten minutes to travel along the lake shore in a small boat. The boat left the bookstore by the lake and followed the lake shore for more than a thousand meters. The boat turned into a narrow waterway.
There are pavilions on both sides of this waterway, and the originally light light becomes dimmer.
Ling Ning, who was sitting in the awning boat, yawned boredly and lazily leaned against the little boat girl rowing the boat: "Girl, how long will it take to arriveI'm sleepy."
The boat girl who rowed the boat for the two people was about thirteen or fourteen years old. She was wearing a light blue dress and short skirt. She had a delicate and cute appearance, with soft curves and beautiful cheeks, and a gentle charm unique to the water town. When it was messily attached to her body, she pouted in displeasure but did not refute. She looked around and then at the watch on her hand: "There are still four or five minutes left, right?"
Her tone was uncertain, as if she was not sure even herself.
Seeing Ling Ning¡¯s frown, the boat girl hesitated and explained, ¡°I¡¯m not familiar with the residence that Aunt Xun arranged for you, and I don¡¯t go to that area often¡ I don¡¯t have much impression.¡±
"" Ning turned her head quietly. She finally saw that this guy was either new or a fool~
Xiao Lin looked at the little boat girl who looked a little distressed and comforted her in a low voice: "Don't worry about this idiot, you can look for it slowly. We are very free now, so it's good to see the scenery on the boat lake."
"Rin, you called me stupid again!"
"Did I make a mistake?" Xiao Lin put his hand on Ling Ning's head and smiled evilly: "Since you are so unqualified as a disciple, at least you should be a qualified sister. As a sister, how many times can I teach you a lesson? Isn¡¯t it natural?¡±
Taking advantage of Lin¡¯s majesty, Ling Ning could only puff her cheeks and say nothing. She felt lucky for Xiao Lin¡¯s sister once again. Fortunately, her age is much different from Xiao Lin's, otherwise her treatment would not be as good as it is now.
"Thatshould be here soon!"
The two of Xiao Lin played for a while and then stopped. She found that the little boat girl looked at the two of them with envious eyes. Under this gaze, she felt that it should not be more exciting. She did. After a while, the boat girl seemed to see a familiar building, and her tone suddenly became more certain: "We'll be there in two minutes, and I won't go wrong this time!"
""
Xiao Lin, who was sitting at the other end of the awning boat, put his legs in the water and looked into the distance in a daze. A few buildings away, the study room was no longer visible. Pavilions, corridors and pavilions are everywhere, making people feel the wonderful taste of this water garden. In the distance among several pavilions, there is a place where the green smoke is faint. From the beginning, some kind of weird tune has been faintly shrouding the garden.
After a long time to recover, Lin looked away and asked behind her: "Does your family worship your ancestors at night?"
"Yes." Looking in the direction of Lin's finger, the boat girl showed a smile: "According to the instructions of the second-generation patriarch, the elders of the Su family will go to the ancestral hall to offer incense every day a quarter of an hour before sunset. This tradition has been It¡¯s been hundreds of years.¡±
"That's right, you really respect your ancestors."
After a little understanding of the situation, Rin didn¡¯t pay too much attention to it. It was normal for these ancient families to have some traditions of their own. It was not surprising. She had no intention of delving into the deeper meaning.
Not long after, the boat stopped in front of a unique pavilion.
After thanking the boat girl, the two of them walked up to the pavilion.
In the rugged light, the entire attic is connected with the pavilions, corridors and pavilions around it, and is built on the water. On the first floor of the attic, there is only one flight of stairs except for a pier where boats dock. The second floor looks like it should be a living room. There is a pair of antique furniture in the antique room. There is a four-corner table by the window with a pot of hot tea on it.
It looks like someone just came to clean up here.
Entering the third floor of the pavilion, here is the bedroom for two people.
Before Xiao Lin arrived, the windows of this room had been opened, so the air in the room would not be dull. Xiao Lin walked to the window and enjoyed the scenery comfortably. As for Ling Ning, this guy had already thrown himself down on the soft bed and rolled around lazily.
"Rin, Rin" Ling Ning wrapped herself in the sheets and called softly.
"What's wrong?" Lin leaned against the window and stroked her hair that was blown away by the evening breeze.
The sun sets in the west,??The thin dark golden light condensed on the tips of Xiao Lin's hair. The breeze blew slightly, and a few strands of hair shone under the brilliant golden color. Xiao Lin stretched out his hand to smooth his messy hair. There was an indescribable feeling in every move he made. His thin body seemed to exude charming sexiness. In Ling Ning's eyes, Lin, whose appearance was slightly childish, actually showed a different kind of charm.
Like the stars hidden high in the dark night sky, no one can know. Just like the dazzling band of light of the Milky Way, no one can match it. Xiao Lin at this moment is completely different from the impression she usually gives people. It is a deeper charm that is precipitated under a strong mystery.
"Rin, I find that you seem to have matured a bitalthough you are still a baby face~~"
Hearing Ling Ning's words, Xiao Lin's face darkened, and her original pleasant mood was instantly shattered. She grinned at Ling Ning and said in a bad tone: "Stop talking nonsense, I won't take you back if you continue to talk nonsense! Keep you still Forget it here." This guy just needs a lesson! !
"" Although Ning had no objection, it was not difficult to see her dissatisfaction from the small movements of curling her lips.
Xiao Lin ignored this small gesture and returned directly to the original question: "Speak quickly, hold it in and feel uncomfortable."
Ning's expression became serious and he asked in a low voice: "Rin, are there too few people in the Su family? We definitely saw no more than twenty people along the way, including those little devils. Compared to this, this is too big For Linyuan, aren¡¯t there a few people here?¡±
Xiao Lin also noticed this, and she explained to Ling Ning: "This is not surprising. Luo Ya once told me about it a long time ago. Don't look at the Su family's garden as big as it is. In fact, the Su family who live here are full of plans. There are only more than two hundred people. This is only after adding all men, women, old and young."
"Are you right? Can we build such a big place with just a few people? I don't think the houses here are worth the money." Ling Ning jumped up from the bed. Ning came to the window and pointed out the window. Surrounding the small lake, there are scattered pavilions, each with dozens of rooms. Under the increasingly darker sky, red lanterns were lit in the antique pavilions.
Ling Ning said seriously: "Fight the local tycoons and divide the real estate!"
Xiao Lin burst into laughter looking at her serious look.
"Don't you think it's a waste, Rin~"
"It's quite a waste" Xiao Lin said indifferently, and then explained to her: "Although the Su family only has a small number of people now, the number of people in this family hundreds of years ago was much larger than it is now. Then At that time, the Su family, together with some relatives, had a total of more than a thousand people, and it was a famous big family at that time. Now that the family is weakening, there are fewer and fewer descendants. The ups and downs always make people sigh. "
Ning frowned immediately after hearing this: "Not to mention expanding the family, but the number of people in this family is getting fewer and fewer?" She lowered her head and thought for a while, then asked: "Is it possible that something has been provoked? Weird stuff. I heard Xiao Yin say that there was a dead corpse that made a family disappear. Where did it come from"
Speaking of which, Ling Ning has been studying with Xiao Lin for a long time. Although this guy has never paid attention to it, he has learned a lot about what happened in the underworld through hearing and seeing. For example, she gave an example: A long time ago, there was a large Zheng family in Henan. The family, which originally had thousands of people, was all wiped out in just fifty years. More than ten years after the entire family died out, a traveling demon slayer dug up a dead body in the main house of the Zheng family, which had become a haunted house.
"Do you still remember what that withered corpse is?" Xiao Lin asked with a smile.
"It's been several months, who can still remember it so clearly?"
Xiao Lin smiled and stretched out her hand to flick on his forehead. Even with Ling Ning's powerful physique, she covered her head in pain: "I can't even remember this. You really aren't serious enough Also, the one you mentioned The withered corpse should be the 'territory inverse'. There were grievances before death, and he was buried in the spiritual veins after death. Over a hundred years, the corpse energy infected the spiritual veins, destroying all the feng shui of that place. The most powerful thing is the infection of the spiritual veins, but With the support of resentment, the dead corpses of the 'Reverse Territory' will absorb the bloodline clansmen protected by the feng shui of this place. Through the connection of bloodline, it will swallow up the souls of the entire clansman, and finally condense the cause and effect of the bloodline of the clan into one body."
Rin shook his head in disappointment, and then said: "Strictly speaking, 'Register' is already the fourth generation among zombies. As long as the withered corpse absorbs all the spiritual energy from the corpse veins, it can completely break away from the shackles of life and death." , flesh and blood are reborn, and consciousness is condensed in the void.¡±
"Should I feel pity for him?" Ning thought for a while and nodded decisively: "It is a pity."
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore." Rin did not express his position, had no regrets, and no joy.
In these matters, time is not enough to hinder her vision.
The beginning and end of the whole thing, all the cause and effect, she had already known in the last moment.Saw it again.
"The Su family is not the Zheng family in Henan. It is a branch of ancient Chinese heritage, and its ancestors are famous exorcists. How could ordinary disasters cause his clan to perish?"
"That's true." Ning agreed with this statement, but her doubts did not diminish.
The simple cycle of rise and fall is not enough to explain this strange phenomenon.
"Okay Ling Ning, we don't need to deal with the Su family's affairs. Since they haven't asked for help from outsiders, they will definitely take care of it."
When he was in Maoshan, Xiao Lin also asked Luo Ya such questions, but Luo Ya never answered directly, but Judging from her face at that time, she should know something.
¡¡¡¡
In the room, Xiao Lin took out a volume from the void and read quietly, while Ning was lying on the bed playing PSP. She came prepared for this trip. After knowing that she would be far away this time, this guy brought all the electronic equipment: a fully charged mobile phone, a backup power supply, psp, mp4, and apd. The small bag was full of these electronic devices. product.
In order to ensure the safety of the battery, Ling Ning also specially learned from Xiao Lin the big talisman and seal script she created.
After that, Ling Ning used the talisman to calculate a magical application. This application is not complicated and the function is very simple. It can just convert any form of power into 220 volts of voltage and current
Haha, Xiao Lin still appreciates Ling Ning's behavior. This proves that Ling Ning has learned something again. Now, she can modify the incantation equivalent to the thirty-three major talisman seals of Maoshan. Although he only derived a small skill for terminal use, in a higher level sense, Ling Ning has made progress.
With this in mind, Xiao Lin turned around and looked at Ling Ning. .
¡®Alas, the progress is not obvious enough. ¡¯
¡Ling Ning is playing a small game called Defending Carrots!
Time is passing, the sky is getting dark, and the window is already hazy.
It was about ten o'clock, and Xun Niang gave them a supper.
"The cross-bridge rice noodles that have just come out of the pot, my craftsmanship is pretty good~" Xun Niang smiled confidently, and handed the chopsticks to the two of them. Because the eldest lady had an irregular schedule, she stayed with her quietly after the two left, until Su Yi woke up just now.
After Su Yi finished her dinner, she brought supper to the two guests.
¡°It smells so good~~¡± Looking at the crimson layer on the rice noodles, an alluring fragrance hit my face.
"Eat it quickly. Although it won't be cold, it's more delicious if you eat it early."
"II'll eat it later, wait until I finish this level." After swallowing, Ning retracted his gaze decisively and concentrated on the game in his hand. I lit it silently, feeling a little sad. The food looked very tempting, but it didn't have much appeal to her.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, she looked greedy when Ling was eating, but only Ling Ning knew clearly that this was just the surface. She envied other people's eating behavior more than those beautifully made foods.
"Eat early, don't play too late." Xun Niang reminded with a smile, and was about to leave, pointing downstairs: "After you finish eating, just put the bowls and chopsticks on the table on the second floor. I'll clean them up tomorrow."
"Yeah," Rin, who had already eaten less than half of the bowl, replied inarticulately.
"Go to bed early, it may be a little noisy at night, don't pay too much attention." After leaving the door, Xun Niang reminded.
¡¡¡¡
In the end, both bowls of cross-bridge rice noodles went into Lin's stomach, and Xiao Lin rubbed his stomach with satisfaction. .
And Ning could only pull out a bottle of light red drink from his bag with a grimace and drank it angrily.
"Rin, I'm tired of these flavors. Can you get some strawberry milk flavor next time?" After finishing a bottle of apple-flavored drink, Ning pestered Xiao Lin and said, "Make some for me next time." It tastes like milk, I haven¡¯t tasted milk for a long, long time.¡±
Lin leisurely picked up a tissue and wiped the grease stains from the corner of his mouth: "That's not a problem, but my memory has never been very good. Maybe I took the bowl downstairs and forgot Oops, that would be bad. ." After saying that, Rin regretfully picked up the bowl and prepared to go downstairs.
"No, don't you just want me to help you get it? Can't you do it if I go?!"
Ling Ning, who knew someone's bad character very well, got out of bed decisively, picked up the bowl and walked downstairs
