Chapter 202: A Ghost Comes to the Door
"Is there a kind of text that, as long as you see its appearance, its meaning immediately appears in your brain, and it will never be wrong?" This day, after the class ended, Xiao Yu pulled the Black Girl and asked.
She thought of demon script.
"Of course there is; Dragon Seals and Phoenix Seals are naturally formed, containing Dao rhyme, and are the characters of spiritual trace talisman books."
After the Black Girl finished speaking, she slowly shook her head and sighed, "Only immortals can write true Dragon Seals and Phoenix Seals."
"Mortals imitate the cat and draw the tiger, but what they write is just ordinary text, losing the natural Dao rhyme, and it is also very incomplete."
"Can you write?"
The Black Girl nodded gently, "I learned a little from my teacher when I was young, and Li Manman and Li Qianyue also asked me to interpret a few booklets containing Daoist scriptures, so it can be considered that I have some practical experience."
"Can you write a few characters for me to see?" Xiao Yu asked curiously.
The Black Girl didn't refuse and immediately picked up a brush and wrote eight characters on the paper.
Not to mention just looking at its appearance and immediately understanding its meaning, Xiao Yu looked left and right for a long time, and couldn't even do it by guessing like pictographs.
"A bit complicated, the strokes of each character are many, and it's a bit strange..."
Although Xiao Yu couldn't guess its meaning, she vaguely had a sense of familiarity.
The Black Girl's eyes flashed, and she asked, "Where is it strange?"
Xiao Yu pondered for a moment, pointed to the text on the paper and said, "The characters above and the characters below seem to have some kind of connection."
The Black Girl was surprised, "The top is Dragon Seals, the bottom is Phoenix Seals, and they are Yin and Yang to each other... I didn't expect you to see their connection at a glance; it seems you still have some talent."
Xiao Yu stared at the eight characters for a long time again.
It seemed to have nothing to do with her talent; the reason why these eight characters had a sense of familiarity was related to demon script.
Currently, she only knew one demon script "Mountain" (like the weight of a mountain).
When teaching Black Jin Gang the "Quicksand Sword Intent," she had tried to write it out so he could comprehend it.
But the characters she imitated were dozens, like blind men touching an elephant, touching different parts.
Xiao Qiang knew "Mountain," but couldn't imitate it at all.
She was much stronger than Xiao Qiang, but she also couldn't combine the "different parts of the elephant" into a whole.
And the text she imitated was somewhat similar to the Dragon Seals and Phoenix Seals at this time.
It's just that she didn't distinguish Yin and Yang like Dragon Seals and Phoenix Seals.
Why are the demon scripts created by Kunpeng Demon Master so similar to the Dragon Seals and Phoenix Seals of immortals?
"Since I have talent, Grandmaster Wen, teach me Dragon Seals and Phoenix Seals!"
She had always wanted to see the "Kunpeng" demon script in Xiao Qiang's mind.
Seeing "Mountain," she directly comprehended the mystery of the weight of a mountain, and also integrated it into the "Quicksand Sword Intent," swinging a sword, and the rolling waves had the weight of a mountain.
If she saw "Kunpeng," would she experience the transformation of Kunpeng again?
Alas, she couldn't even write a complete "Mountain" herself, so how could she demand the dog to write a more complex "Kunpeng"?
If Dragon Seals and Phoenix Seals are really related to demon script, maybe she can learn it first, and then teach it to the dog, letting Xiao Qiang "blindly touch the elephant" bit by bit, and touch out "Kunpeng"?
Even if Dragon Seals and Phoenix Seals are unrelated to demon script, since even Li Manman and Li Qianyue asked the Black Girl to interpret Daoist scriptures, there would be no harm in her learning it.
Xiao Yu was still considering teaching Xiao Qiang Phoenix Seals in the morning, but Xiao Qiang came to the door by himself at night.
This night after dinner, on the fourth floor of Tianbao Residence, the thin gauze curtains fluttered gently, and the lights and noise on the distant street poured into the pavilion with the cool autumn wind. The Black Girl and Sister Shao Yao sat shoulder to shoulder, the Black Girl played the flute, Sister Shao Yao plucked the zither strings gently, the flute and zither played together, melodious and winding, the sound and scenery, scenery and emotion, were all incomparably harmonious.
Xiao Yu wore a white dress with wide sleeves dragging on the ground, and her half-long hair floated naturally behind her head.
She stood in front of the desk, with her left hand behind her back, and her right hand holding a brush, dancing like a dragon and phoenix on the paper, writing the newly learned Phoenix Seals one by one.
"Sigh, in this situation, Sister Fengxian should be playing the sword and singing, or dancing like a fairy, why are you still writing?" Sister Shao Yao smiled.
Xiao Yu didn't lift her head and said, "You are watching the night view in front of the window, and I am also appreciating the scenery in front of the desk; this situation, this emotion, this music, are all great."
The Black Girl's flute sound didn't stop, she just glared at her bitterly.
Sister Shao Yao played the strings with both hands, but her mouth could still complain, "So you treated us as scenery."
"You can also treat me as scenery, there's no need to put three people together into a landscape painting," Xiao Yu smiled.
"Woof woof woof" a burst of dog barking appeared very abruptly under the steps of the front yard gate.
"Master, Master!"
The surrounding neighbors who were disturbed only heard the dog barking, but Xiao Yu heard Xiao Qiang's call.
She stopped her brush, and under the suspicious eyes of Sister Shao Yao and the Black Girl, walked out of the pavilion, lifted the curtain and walked to the railing.
Converted to the time of the previous life, it was about ten o'clock at night.
If it were in an ordinary town, it would definitely be dark, and the whole city would be shrouded in darkness and silence.
But this is Tianmen Town, and outside Tianbao Residence is the most prosperous Xianyang Street.
However, Tianbao Residence closed its doors and locked them, and the lanterns at the door were also extinguished, so the dog at the door could not be seen standing on the fourth floor.
"Sister Sister Shao Yao, my Xiao Qiang is here, I'll go down and take a look."
"Woof woof woof~~~" Xiao Qiang didn't get a response and was still barking wildly outside.
It is a demon dog, and it is not afraid of disturbing the people, so its barking is very loud.
It was just that the pavilion was too high, and the flute and zither were playing together, and the sound was not small, so Sister Shao Yao didn't notice it just now.
After Xiao Yu's reminder, she immediately distinguished the dog barking and said in surprise, "That dog is 'Xiao Qiang'? What kind of name did you give it, it's so ugly."
"It's just an ordinary local dog, what kind of good name does it need?" Xiao Yu said while tying her hair.
Her previous attire clearly showed that she was ready to go to sleep after writing.
But since Xiao Qiang ran over late at night to find her, something big must have happened.
It was inevitable that she would have to go out and be busy for a while, so disheveled hair and gauze clothes were not appropriate.
"It can run from Red Sleeve Workshop to find you, it must not be ordinary," the Black Girl put down the bamboo flute and walked to the railing to say.
"Well, it is very spiritual, almost became a spirit."
When living in Whistling Shanzhuang, she let Xiao Qiang help go to the village entrance to buy breakfast; it made no sense for her to emphasize that Xiao Qiang was an ordinary local dog again.
"I'm going, you guys rest early, don't wait for me."
Xiao Yu put on a dark green jacket, jumped up, and floated straight toward the courtyard gate ten feet away.
"Yu Fengxian clearly hasn't practiced any advanced movement secret manuals, but her light-body technique is so exquisite," the Black Girl muttered.
"Does she still need to specifically practice movement secret manuals? She is the Flower God, every move is graceful and elegant, like a fairy walking on waves... sigh, if only I could learn a few points of that charm," Sister Shao Yao envied.
The Black Girl disagreed, "Floating and agile is just a beautiful posture; didn't you notice that she was floating down at high speed from a high altitude against a strong wind, without making any wind sound?"
"This is the performance of a high-level light-body technique, which is even more terrifying than stepping on snow without leaving a trace."
"I know, I have also seen her perform the 'Green Lotus Hongfu Hongfu Xianzi' sword technique, stepping on water without sinking! But I only care about the elegance and detachment of the posture and temperament; realms or whatever are not important."
"She is like this now, flying without the sound of fluttering clothes, silent like a ghost, which instead destroys the temperament of the 'Hongfu Hongfu Xianzi Walking on Waves'," Sister Shao Yao said.
The Black Girl was speechless.
"Master, I finally saw you; you clearly said you would go back every few days, why have I been unable to wait for you?"
Seeing Xiao Yu land, the dog stuck out its long tongue and called out aggrievedly.
"I said every few days, but I haven't even left for five days! Alright, stop talking nonsense, what happened at Red Sleeve Workshop?"
"Actually, it's not a big deal; there is a dead ghost looking for you, who has been calling your name in Soy Sauce Alley."
"I'm worried that she will disturb the neighbors nearby, so I can only come to call you."
"By the way, Zhai Lao San in Soy Sauce Alley seems to be targeted by someone; do you want to pay attention to it?"
"Or should I help you keep an eye on it?"
"You know, I ate a Buddha head, sometimes I can touch the spiritual opportunity and sense other people's calamities."
"I feel that although Zhai Lao San is full of red light and is a sign of great wealth, there is an evil spirit looming between his eyebrows."
"There may be an unexpected disaster."
"Also, Aunt Zhang fell ill the day before yesterday and is still lying in bed; perhaps you should go visit her."
"It's very strange, she also has signs of bad luck covering her head."
Xiao Qiang tilted its head and thought for a while, then continued: "The 'Xue Cuier' of the Wang Squire's family behind Little Jingxuan, you have a pretty good relationship with her, right?"
"She is getting married, and you also have to prepare a gift."
"Sigh, you can't let others think that you have become a Great Qin nobility and forgotten the friends of poverty, otherwise how can you maintain the reputation of 'righteousness reaching the clouds, ancient sage'?"
"Speaking of marriage, Soy Sauce Alley has been quite lively recently."
"Widow Huang also helped Zhai Lao San find a wife, who is the Cai family's young lady from 'Lianghe Village' outside the West City Gate."
"I heard that she is like you, her ancestors were also a Sha Man."
"They have already started comparing horoscopes; it seems the marriage is about to be negotiated, and the happy event is near, so you have to prepare."
Xiao Yu looked at it with a strange expression and said, "Xiao Qiang, when I left, I seemed to only tell you to honestly watch the door, right?"
She didn't let it keep an eye on the neighbors in Soy Sauce Alley at all.
Even if it was Zhai Lao San, even if she had long seen that the hooligan had impure thoughts and was keeping an eye on the blacksmith shop.
After reminding the dog-meat Daoist to do a good job of aftermath, she threw Zhai Lao San's matter to the back of her mind.
First busy taking a foster father, then moved to Tianbao Residence, and hadn't seen Zhai Lao San for several days.
After all, he is an adult, and she is not his mother—even if she is his godson, unless she misses the never-before-seen shrimp shell arm guards and shrimp shell boots, she can't think of Black Jin Gang.
Xiao Qiang was stunned and said, "Master, do you think I'm meddling?"
"I'm just very strange, now you seem to have become a 'dog butler.' When you were at Whistling Shanzhuang, you weren't so capable."
Xiao Qiang said happily, "Master, I have always been so capable. When I was at Whistling Shanzhuang, I also inquired about the news at the head and end of the village."
"But I know that you don't care about the trivial matters of the Zhang family and the Li family at all."
"I am a smart dog, I understand what you might need."
"I can be even more capable."
—I am a smart and capable dog, Master, you must not abandon me!
Xiao Qiang had a faint sense of crisis.
Ever since the master placed it at the back door of Red Sleeve Workshop, it seemed to have found a lifelong career.
It is willing to be a watchdog, but it wants to follow her, just to watch the door for her!
Xiao Yu glanced at it and said, "First tell me about that dead ghost, did you talk to her, is her name Sui Yuanzi?"
The only "ghost acquaintance" she could think of was Sui Yuanzi.
First, Sui Yuanzi had a precedent and had been to Little Jingxuan to find her.
Secondly, in the past two months, the "Method of Forcibly Killing Sui Yuanzi" had updated two major versions and six or seven minor versions.
This shows that Sui Yuanzi is currently advancing by leaps and bounds, and it seems that there is really a bit of the flavor of "Hexi Old·Youth."
Since his cultivation power greatly increased after turning into a ghost immortal, it is not strange that he is in a hurry to come back to fulfill the "three-year appointment."
But she is not worried at all, not to mention the Father-Destroying Method, Sui Yuanzi hates the Qinghe Commandery Prince.
Qinghe Commandery Prince... sigh, debt doesn't worry, Xiao Yu feels that he can also be indifferent. ===== CHAPTER 203 =====
