Deep alley.

Small courtyard.

The setting sun shines slantingly.

The reed flowers that farewell to the frost and snow are floating gently in the wind, flying all over the sky.

A frost and snow in late autumn can turn into the depths of winter.

So much so that the farewell of late autumn appears little by little, as if at the end of winter.

The sorrow of the human world is like looking at the foot of Qingping Mountain and the luxuriant grass.

Gu Yusheng, who had been practicing hard for nearly a month, opened the courtyard door.

Reed flowers brushed my face.

He looked at the receding frost and snow at the foot of the mountain and the tree trunks that had been knocked bare by the frost and snow.

There is nothing more desolate than this in the human world.

He walked to the middle of the small courtyard.

The plum blossoms in the corner have withered and are scattered on the soil, like drifting duckweeds without roots.

However.

The spring wind has not come yet.

Gu Yusheng's heart, as peaceful as a flat lake, suddenly started to ripple.

There was a cry from the sky.

The bird that flew high in the middle of winter finally fluttered its wings, swooped down, and landed on the tall old locust tree.

Gu Yusheng's heart, which was originally a little depressed, suddenly became full of expectations.

He looked up.

A plum blossom in full bloom reflected in her eyes.

"Miss Mo."

His hands are in the air.

Suddenly woke up again.

He jumped up.

I want to get plum blossoms.

The bird flew up in the sky, seeming to despise Gu Yusheng.

"You tough guy, be careful not to damage the plum blossoms!"

Gu Yusheng thought to himself that he had devoted himself to practicing this month, and his cultivation was getting better and better day by day. His body movements were erratic, and he was several times faster than before, but he could not control this bird.

I fell helplessly in the courtyard, thought for a while, took out some peach blossom wine and poured it into a bottle in the small courtyard.

"I'm sorry you can't drink either."

Gu Yusheng knew that the bird raised by Mr. Fang was extremely magical and must have understood human nature. He put the wine in the bottle and saw what it would do?

The bluebird circled in the sky several times and threw the plum blossom in its mouth to Gu Yusheng.

He fluttered his wings and landed in the small courtyard, staring at Gu Yusheng for a moment with his crooked eyes.

Suddenly, a claw smashed the bottle into pieces.

He flew up in the sky and killed the jackdaw nesting in the old locust tree with one claw in Gu Yusheng's courtyard.

The blue bird screamed strangely at Gu Yusheng.

He immediately occupied its lair and never came out again.

It is tired of flying.

Too lazy to deal with such a weak human being.

Gu Yusheng looked at the jackdaws that died tragically on the ground.

I was speechless for a long time.

This life.

I am afraid that I have no chance to meet the Buddha.

Gu Yusheng lifted up the tragically dead jackdaw, jumped up, and was already in the deep forest on the outskirts. He was about to throw it into a pit, when he suddenly saw a stone statue in front of him, and in front of him there was a lot of incense.

Gu Yusheng stuffed the jackdaw under the stone statue.

"Morning rise to bliss."

Gu Yusheng turned around and left. He lit the candle and stared at the plum blossom in front of the window. He pressed his chin with his hand. When his elbow became numb, he moved lightly and dropped the lantern on the table. Gu Yusheng took a book and put the plum blossom on the table.

Hidden in it.

This night.

Guess less sleep for the rest of your life.

Later in the night, he vaguely heard a strange sound.

Falling asleep in a daze.

In the deep woods in the mountains behind the countryside.

The incense in front of the stone statue burned out.

Above the stone statue, a group of jackdaws were circling, screaming loudly.

In the dark forest, a layer of fog gradually thickened.

It seemed like there were strange footsteps coming in unparalleled order, getting closer and closer from the mist.

The stone statue that had stood for who knows how many years suddenly had black blood seeping out of its eyes.

The small town's stars occasionally shone through the fog.

It seems that you can vaguely hear low whispers.

For a long time.

The stone statue seemed to be moving little by little in the mist.

However.

A hoarse crow!

It came from under the stone statue platform.

In the mist, first the shadow of a jackdaw flew out, and gradually turned into a tall and strange figure in the sky.

The figure's head turned little by little.

In the black figure.

His eyes opened little by little, and his angry voice was low and echoed in the forest.

"The humble bug from the lower world dares to suppress the Eye of the Evil Crow..."

Before that strange figure finished speaking, thousands of strange shadows suddenly appeared in his strange and bright eyes, getting closer and bigger.

"This is?"

A hand surging with demonic energy suddenly came out of the mist and grabbed the shadow in its hand.

In the mist.

It was like an endless black pool suddenly boiling, making a gurgling sound.

"ah!"

A scream.

The black shadow was pulled bit by bit into the huge black pool.

Vaguely, the sound of chewing echoed in the forest.

The fog drifted towards Qingyun Town little by little.

At this moment.

There was a cock crow in Qingyun Town.

The fog that had almost filled the walls of Qingyun Town was quietly blown away by a gust of wind.

Vaguely, the sound of fighting and chaos faded away.

Whoosh!

Gu Yusheng, who was sleeping lightly on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes.

He immediately sat up from the bed.

He reached out and touched his forehead.

My palms were covered in cold sweat.

"Um?"

Gu Yusheng opened the door.

The east is getting whiter.
