The Heartless Mage Chapter 65: The night is terrifying


Zhang Xianzong, dressed in casual clothes, galloped on his horse with his arms around Yue Qiluo, galloping along the dirt road outside Wenxian City to the desolate place. The horse is a military horse, with strength and human nature. I have been with him for a long time, but at this moment it is running unsteadily, and it always seems to be preparing to slap the two people on its back.

Yue Qiluo knows the reason, the senses of animals are often more sensitive than people, and Zhang Xianzong has been concocted by himself into a walking dead that is neither human nor ghost. The horses are afraid.

Even with the night wind blowing, the stench still lingers. Zhang Xianzong did not catch up with the good time. If he changed the time to winter, he would not have been spotted so quickly. The weather is hot every day, and he can cover everything except the smell. The rumors seemed to erupt in an instant - when Ding Datou was a living dead, he had already aroused the suspicions of his subordinate officers; the suspicions persisted to this day, and they all happened to him.

He's been a thorn in the side of some old guys since he took power. Why should the team left by Ding Datou belong to him? Even if he is alive, there is a danger of being murdered; not to mention that he is dead now, and he will not be accommodated by his old enemies. The army was torn apart in an atmosphere of terror and madness, and he became a monster in everyone's eyes.

Ding's house was burned into a sea of ​​fire, and the beams and wooden frames burst and collapsed in the flames-they wanted to burn him and Yue Qiluo to death, and Yue Qiluo's skills were not enough to spread beans and become soldiers. , also can not resist hundreds of thousands of people at the same time.

So, they have to flee.

Zhang Xianzong held Yue Qiluo in his arms with one hand and held the reins tightly with the other. The pus oozes sticky fingers, and the flesh in the palm rubs against the rough reins. His fingertips had been ground to the bone, and he galloped through the warm spring night, rotting while surviving.

Finally, in an endless wasteland, Zhang Xianzong restrained his horse.

He rolled over and dismounted, and reached out and hugged Yue Qiluo. The sky is a dark golden velvet that looks broad and soft. The silver-white moonlight shone on a tree on the wasteland. Yue Qiluo sat under the tree, and her bangs swept up in a mess, revealing her jade-like forehead.

Zhang Xianzong did not approach her, but sat on a small hill not far away, sitting downwind, because he didn't want to smoke her. Listening to her shallow breathing, he suddenly couldn't help but say, "Qiluo..."

With his back to Yue Qiluo, he asked the endless darkness ahead: "If I hadn't died, if I had always been nice to you, would you...would you have a little love for me?"

Yue Qiluo raised her eyes to look at his back, then looked away, and gave a clear and heavy sneer—what kind of thing are you worthy of talking about love with me?

Smile is cold and heart is cold. As soon as she stood up, she walked behind Zhang Xianzong. Bending down and patting the top of his head, she said, "While it's dark, we'll continue on our way."

Zhang Xianzong now resembles a ghost, and the sun will make him feel very uncomfortable.

Master Gu's headquarters changes one village a day, advancing with the advance of the front line. At this moment, he was only forty miles away from Wenxian. The army in Wenxian County was in chaos, and they were contacting him to surrender. Surrender is of course possible, Master Gu gave the enemy time with confidence and boldness. Whether it is a war or surrender is up to them. The surrender is also accepted, and the battle is also accompanied.

Crescent Moon follows the army, no matter where she goes, she is still in charge of her old job. If she didn't finish three meals a day, she felt empty in her heart, as if she had lost her identity and status. Wuxin has put on new shoes, and she is preparing to make a pair for Master Gu as well. Mr. Gu's big feet are very expensive, no matter how solid and good leather shoes are, they can finally make him wear two flat and long smelly salted fish. So Crescent Moon moved his mind and wanted to add a few more layers to the upper and sole of the shoe, specifically to deal with Mr. Gu's big iron file-like heel and tooth-like toes.

Crescent Moon has worked so hard to gnash her teeth every day. At night, the oil lamp was lit in the house, and Master Gu and Wuxin sat on the kang to play cards. She didn't join in. She fiercely used a big steel needle to poke into the sole of the shoe, pulling the rope and making a chi chi sound: "Make one for Master Gu. The time spent on shoes is enough for me to make a pair for Wuxin.”

The unintentional injury was healed long ago, and happily clutching a handful of cards, he said: "Take your time! You are busy all day, and you don't know how to rest at night. If you don't do it for him, he will go barefoot. Can it be done?"

Master Gu slapped his head with a card: "What's the matter! What's going on? Your daughter-in-law makes me shoes, you're still not happy?"

Crescent Moon was so tired that her hands hurt, and because she guessed she was going to move again tomorrow, she climbed into the kang to open the bag, wrapped the needle and thread around the sole of her shoes and put it in the bag. There was nothing serious in the bag, just a few pieces of clothing and two small purses. In the purse was a yellow talisman, which was worn by Master Gu and Wuxin at the beginning, but now both of them don't wear it, and she was tucked into the clothes together. After tying up the bag and putting it back in place, she stretched her legs and got off the kang, put on her shoes, and went out into the yard.

There are two small guards looking around outside the courtyard, and the crescent moon looks very safe. In the corner of the courtyard, a foul-smelling hut was surrounded by fences and broken bricks. She walked in and unbuttoned her pants and squatted down, covering her nose to pee. However, just after the gate was opened, she suddenly felt a sense of being watched. The hut was leaking everywhere, and she turned around abruptly, but she didn't see anything unusual.

Holding a small piece of grass paper in her hand, she squatted on the pit and calmed down, her spine still shivering with chills. Out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a dark shadow flashing past, and she immediately looked out through a gap, but still found nothing.

Thinking that there are guards outside the hospital, she strengthened her courage and scolded: "Smelly shameless, with sores on the head and pus on the feet, I'm not afraid of blinding your dog's eyes, go home to see you Mom!"

Fix your trousers and walk out of the hut. The guards outside suddenly made a noise. Crescent Moon rushed to take a look, but it was two wild cats fighting on the top of the wall. The guards were afraid that they would disturb the quietness of the brigade, so they jumped up and down. cat. Crescent Moon breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he had scolded the wild cat.

When she returned to the room, Master Gu and Wuxin were still playing. She stood on the ground and rubbed her stomach. She felt cold for a while, as if she hadn't urinated, and wanted to go to the hut again. Turning around and taking a step towards the door, she remembered the seemingly non-existent movement in the hut, and was a little panicked.

"Wuxin." She said, "You can go out with me. It's so scary that there are cats outside. I'm a little scared."

Wuxin was looking at the cards with all her might, and after listening to her words, she looked away from the cards. Raising his eyes to look at Crescent Moon, he saw that Crescent Moon was shrouded in a faint layer of black gas.

He put down the cards calmly. He stretched his legs under the kang and said, "It's bad enough for a wild cat to call Chun. I'll go out and take a look. You can go out after I've driven all the cats away."

Crescent Moon agreed, her stomach was uncomfortable, and she couldn't tell whether she was urinating or not. When Wuxin wore a small jacket and went out, Master Gu smiled and stretched out his hand to lift his card. Seeing this, Crescent Moon temporarily diverted his attention: "Where are you still taking a peek?"

Master Gu raised his finger and "shush" at her: "Don't be noisy, I'll just take a look."

Wuxin always thought that the environment around her was very clean, but I didn't expect that Crescent Moon would accidentally go out in the dark and be entangled by a few scattered souls. Fragmented souls are ignorant and ignorant, and they will not entangle people in ordinary times. Now that they are entangled, there must be a reason.

After entering the hospital, he gestured to hit the cat, bent down and picked up a thick wooden stick from the ground against the wall. Going out all the way as if nothing had happened, he found that the flow of the soul led the way. Someone took control of them nearby, and they became hidden weapons.

Wuxin suddenly remembered the infighting in Wenxian and the missing Yue Qiluo and Zhang Xianzong. It's okay to be unaware, since you are aware of their whereabouts, you mustn't let them go easily. Because the person who shot and injured Zhang Xianzong was Crescent Moon, and they have nothing now, so they must be even more vicious.

Spring is the season for cats. Wuxin broke up many pairs of wild cats along the way. It looked like he was fighting cats, but he was actually walking in the direction of the flow of souls. Suddenly there was a sound of "chi la" beside him, he stopped and looked down, and found that his clothes had been scratched by a low bush.

He bowed his head in the dark, and it took a lot of effort to pull the corner of his coat off the tip of the bush. After chasing a group of wild cats and running for a few more steps, he suddenly found that the light of the soul gradually became shallow and sparse, and the clues just now were interrupted for no reason.

He stopped, and because he was confused for a moment, he turned back with the stick. Unexpectedly, before he could set foot on the way back, a black shadow suddenly rushed out from the slash, slammed into him with the momentum of thunder, and pinned him to the ground on the spot. Before he could resist, the shadow had already cut his hands back, with such great strength that he almost twisted his joints.

He immediately stopped and tried to look back at the person. Under the bright moonlight, he saw a terrifying face - the eye sockets and the nose wing were eroded into black and red, one eyeball protruded from the eye socket, and a layer of white mold grew on the other eyeball. The foul smell drifted out from his seven orifices, and his Adam's apple had revealed a black hole of bones, he was Zhang Xianzong!

A pair of dirty embroidered shoes covered with dust and mud slowly approached, and inadvertently turned his eyes upwards and looked up at Yue Qiluo's eyes.

Yue Qiluo looks like a dirty rag doll, but looks very calm. Standing thinly under the darkness of night, she nodded to Wuxin, the corners of her mouth suddenly twitched, she seemed to laugh instead of laughing, she seemed to cry instead of crying, she had mixed feelings, and she couldn't help crying or laughing.

"Zhang Xianzong." She made a monotonous and sweet voice, a glass of water with sugar and ice added: "Cut off his limbs! Otherwise, he will run very well, and no one will catch him. Him!"

Zhang Xianzong immediately freed one hand and drew a saber from his waist. And Wuxin didn't struggle, just asked: "Why are you arresting me?"

Yue Qiluo replied: "No one wants to arrest you, I just want Crescent Moon's life."

Before Zhang Xianzong swung the machete, Wuxin hurriedly said: "Don't cut, let's make a deal!" Then he turned to Zhang Xianzong: "It's about you!"

Yue Qiluo raised her hand and stopped Zhang Xianzong: "What deal?"

The unintentional eyes were sunk in the shadows, and the idea in my heart quickly took shape. Why kill Crescent Moon? Because Crescent Moon killed Zhang Xianzong. Why should Zhang Xianzong be made into a walking corpse, even if it is turned into a carrion, he will not abandon it? Because for Yue Qiluo, Zhang Xianzong is different and very important.

The dark eyes turned a round in the dark, and he said inadvertently, "You spare Crescent Moon's life, and I will try to keep Zhang Xianzong's body!"

Yue Qiluo smiled: "I have as much body as I want."

Wuxin stopped talking and left her to think for herself. She does have countless ways to settle Zhang Xianzong's soul, but Zhang Xianzong's body is unique. If the body is changed, is he still completely him?

Besides, it is not easy to manipulate other people's bodies. His soul is only suitable for his body.

Wuxin didn't speak, and Zhang Xianzong didn't speak either. Yue Qiluo was silent for a while, then asked again, "What can you do?"

Wuxin's half-faced face is stuck in the dirt: "I'll take you to Qingyun Mountain."

Yue Qiluo looked at him suspiciously: "Qingyun Mountain?"

Wuxin lightened his voice: "There is a secret cave in Qingyun Mountain, which can protect the body from rot."

Yue Qiluo nodded slightly: "I only know that there were monsters in Qingyun Mountain a while ago."

Wuxin replied: "It's not a monster, it's a walking corpse. The corpse in the cave is not rotting, and the soul is not scattered. You are suddenly alerted by the army. You know what the consequences will be."

Yue Qiluo looked down at him thoughtfully, trying to combine him with Zhang Xianzong, but couldn't.

It is impossible not to do anything.
