Wear a Thriller To Protect the Boss

Chapter 56: Imperial City Fright 1

Huo Yinting didn't expect that the world he traveled through had an ancient background.

She didn't even expect that she would become a bird when she walked into this ancient world.

It is a bird in the true sense, a slap-sized bird with gold wings and white feathers.

It looks good, but no matter how good it is, it is not a person, it is a bird.

The metal watch that had been with her was gone. It turned into a green pendant hanging on the neck of a bird. When you tap it with your wings, the system prompt box will be displayed.

[[Imperial City Cry] Player Task: Protect the target character [尹云] to survive and help him fulfill his wish. Please read the background story and character profile carefully, and familiarize yourself with the skills. 】

Skill? What skills?

Then Huo Yinting read down and understood.

Her scientific name is bird spirit. It is a half-demon, half-god and advanced creature that absorbs the essence of the sun and moon. It is 800 years old this year. It can manipulate the fire of Qinglian Karma and Red Lotus Karma, and it can transform into a human form. It is considered a home. Essential Goods for Travel (...)

However, she hasn't figured out how to transform the human form yet.

The world she lives in now is called Fengqi Country. Fortunately, the target person this time is passing by the ancient town of Lianqing where she lives, so it is not difficult to find the other party.

The target is Yin Yun, a young boy in his early twenties, with a silver crown and blue clothes, a long body, a handsome face, like a respectable little boy from a wealthy family, but with slightly longer bangs, that pair of lazy and unruly. Unconsciously, his eyes revealed a sense of danger that no one should come near.

He is a bounty detective, good at breaking yin and yang and traveling through time and space.

The so-called bounty detective is a psychic who specializes in collecting money to solve unnatural and supernatural cases. They are all masters in this line. If their qualifications are mediocre, they may be dead for a long time.

Yin He, Yin Yun's master, was also a bounty detective with profound knowledge, and was honored as the "Northern Heavenly Master" by the industry. He adopted two orphans a long time ago, the elder is eleven, and the younger is only seven. He has taught him what he has learned throughout his life.

But he didn't want the situation to change overnight. Three years ago, a mysterious person followed all the way and wanted to put them to death. Yin He was brutally killed, and his brother escaped to cover Yin Yun. He was also seriously injured. His life is still unknown.

Since then, Yin Yun has left his hometown and wandered around alone, in order to find out the truth about the murder of Master and to confirm whether his brother is still alive.

In the ending of the original story, Yin Yun was not able to slay his enemies, nor could he find his brother, so now, Huo Yinting has found him and wants to fulfill his wish for him.

Unfortunately, Yin Yun does not trust her at present.

"Why should I agree to a strange bird following me? What can you do besides eating and drinking?"

In order to complete the task, Huo Yinting can only be patient and persuade: "I can still make money for you."

"..."

"You are a bounty detective, and you have to make a living from this business. Isn't it a good thing to have a helper on the road now?"

Yin Yun sat on the threshold and glanced at her after hearing the words: "How do I know if you are a helper or a burden?"

"I don't like to waste time either. Since you doubt my strength, you might as well take a look with your own eyes."

After that, Huo Yinting swooped down from the eaves and fluttered his wings to create the wind. Immediately, there was a blue cold flame rising from the ground. Hundreds of tiny lotus flowers quickly filled the space, and the glory flourished until the whole house was reflected. Dazzling.

That is the Qinglian Karma Fire, which is used to supersede those who resented too deeply during their lifetime, so that their grievances would not be transformed into the world and be reduced.

Yin Yun had never used the Qinglian Karma Fire, so most of the dead souls under his hands were wiped out in ashes, and it would be difficult to reincarnate. He had also wondered whether his karma would be deeper if he was like this.

I remember that Master Yin He once said that sparrow spirits are the most advanced of all demon spirits, and sparrow spirits that are familiar with double lotus karma are even rarer.

Co-authoring this white bird really didn't come to swindle and kidnap her, she really has a high level of cultivation.

"How old are you?"

"Eight hundred years old." Huo Yinting said, "You can be your ancestor."

"..." Yin Yun glared at her, "What about the name?"

"Yin Ting."

He was silent for a long while, still not at ease, and couldn't help but asked in a cold voice: "You have cultivated the sparrow for 800 years, what do you want to do with me as a mortal? You must have a plan."

Huo Yinting received his wings, and his small paws stood on the windowsill, facing the sunlight, white feathers shining brightly.

She fluently replied: "I'm fond of your red maple hands."

What she was referring to was the hand ring on Yin Yun’s wrist. The hand ring was connected by vermilion silk thread. The beads made of twelve red sandalwood pendants were smooth and round, with dark maple leaf patterns appearing in the light. With a somewhat unspeakable sense of mystery and danger.

This is one of the famous magical instruments in the bounty spirit exploration, and it is extremely powerful.

Yin Yun looked at her vigilantly for an instant: "This is what the master left me, you'd better not worry about it."

"I don't grab your things, only magical tools and psychic devices, which can help me deepen my cultivation, so I follow you to benefit and harmlessly."

"What if you have other thoughts?"

If Huo Yinting is still a person, her expression must be indifferent and disdainful, but it is a pity that she is a bird for the time being, and the bird has no expression.

She sneered: "If I have other thoughts, can you stop the young man?"

"..."

In the end, Huo Yinting successfully embarked on a journey with Yin Yun.

Yin Yun made this decision not because of how good she is, but because of her double lotus karma, which can indeed help him.

What's more, because of the huge disparity in strength, he felt that he really couldn't beat her.

So as long as she doesn't rob him of the red maple hand, just follow along if she is willing to follow.

"Hey, Shiratori, can you get off my shoulder? You can't fly if your wings are broken?"

Huo Yinting stood on his shoulders, looking at the deserted dirt road ahead, calmly and calmly: "Flying is a very tiring thing, I'm not used to it yet."

She is really not used to it, but anyone who suddenly becomes a bird is probably not used to it.

Yin Yun shook his shoulder impatiently: "I care if you are used to it!"

Huo Yinting's claws crooked and quickly stood firmly. She was not angry, and naturally she did not go down.

"In any case, I am eight hundred years older than you. I am your elder, so be polite."

"...Why should I discuss seniority with a bird?"

"Because you will definitely be able to use my place in the future." Huo Yinting asked slowly, "Do you have a clear destination? Where do you want to go?"

Yin Yun snorted coldly: "No purpose, no matter where you go, if you have to set a goal, just go in the direction of the imperial city."

"The imperial city is too far away from here."

"I don't have anything else, but I have a lot of time. Go slowly."

"Ah, that makes sense."

Then the two...one and one bird didn't speak again, so they went all the way south until the sun set, and night was approaching.

I don't know how far it has been, Yin Yun climbed over the two low mountains, and Huo Yinting finally flew away from his shoulders, looking into the distance.

"I seem to see the village."

Yin Yun asked lazily: "Really? What is the name of the village?"

"Called Chishui Village?"

"Chishui Village? That's a weird name."

"Anyway, it's dark and there is nowhere to stay, so it's better to go and see."

As a result, when he approached nearby, Huo Yinting discovered the weirdness of this village. A stone stele covered with moss was upside down at the entrance of the village. The three characters "Weijiacun" engraved on the stele were faintly visible, but for some reason, it stood up next to it. A new monument, this was the "Chishui Village" she had just seen.

As for why it is called Chishui Village, about 400 meters to the east, the quiet river sparkling in the moonlight has explained everything, but the water is dark red, as if bleeding will come in the next second. , It is really chilling.

What's more worth mentioning is that the two of them walked deep into the village and saw that the door of their house was closed tightly. They couldn't even hear the sounds of chickens and dogs, and it was as quiet as a deserted mountain. Kind of weird.

Huo Yinting chose a family and pecked the door three times. As soon as the door opened, she immediately landed on Yin Yun's shoulder again, pretending that she was an ordinary bird.

Strange thing, since she became a bird, she seems to have become unsteady in her personality.

The hostess cautiously showed half of her face in the crack of the door. She suspected Yin Yun who was looking at the door: "Who are you?"

Yin Yun said in a deep voice, "I'm a traveler passing by. I have traveled through this place for a long distance. I want to borrow your house to stay overnight."

"no!"

Yin Yun was surprised at her decisive tone, and was immediately unhappy: "This lady, I will give the money, don't worry."

The woman was startled and seemed to hesitate for a long time, but in the end she shook her head resolutely: "This village does not keep foreigners. This has been a rule for many years. Even if you search the whole village, no one is willing to accept you, so hurry up and go elsewhere! "

Seeing the wooden door slammed shut, Yin Yun became even more angry: "What kind of attitude is this? I really want to smash her door."

"You can't blast her whole family out. What's the point of smashing them?"

"..." Yin Yun felt speechless.

Huo Yinting said: "I think this is not just because of the rules of the village. Judging from the look in the woman's eyes just now, she should be taboo."

"What do you think she is tabooing?"

"I don't know, but it must be inseparable from the river at the entrance of the village."

"Then let's just take a stroll by the river." Yin Yun made a decisive decision and turned to leave the villager's house. "By the way, light a fire to warm up and find something to eat-what do you eat?"

"I eat everything."

"Didn't your sparrows absorb the aura of heaven and earth? You also eat mortal food?"

Huo Yinting answered naturally: "Yes, I not only eat, but if you have tobacco, I can still smoke a bag."

"..."

After about two sticks of incense.

The moon was clear and shining, shining on the land by the river, Yin Yun sat cross-legged by the burning fire, flexibly turning the twigs of barbecue with his left hand, and drawing talisman paper with blood on his right hand.

Huo Yinting stood on a rock next to him. Not long after, seeing him raising his head and making contact with his gaze, he asked leisurely, "Does it hurt?"

"It's nothing more than scratching a finger. If it hurts to shed this bit of blood, what kind of bounty detective should I be?" Yin Yun said casually, "Hey, Shiratori, here is the rabbit leg for you. Come and eat it yourself."

She spread her wings and flew to the fire, using her paws to test the rawness of the rabbit meat: "Don't give someone a nickname at will. My name is Yinting."

"It's hard to remember, just call it Shiratori."

Huo Yinting glanced at him, and said to his heart that this unlucky child, except for his good looks, was really unpopular at all.

But then again, where can the target of the former three worlds be attracted?

Even Pei Yi is not a good contact person.

But Pei Yi is different.

She sighed. There is no news about Pei Yi in this world. Whether he will show up or not, no one knows. Perhaps the poor fate between her and him is gone.

Fortunately, he didn't have to accompany her to save his life, he had helped her enough.

Yin Yun wondered: "Why are you sighing? Are you quelin annoying, too?"

"As long as you are alive, there will be troubles. It doesn't matter whether you are a human or a bird."

"Then what are you bothering about?"

"Nothing to do with you."

Yin Yun turned his head displeased: "I'll take care of you too much."

He threw away the bones in his hand and got up close to the river. It was an illusion. He felt that the gloom of the river became heavier and heavier as the sky gradually darkened.

Since no one shared this idea, he still had to talk to Huo Yinting.

"This river is very evil. It stands to reason that if a drowning person died at the bottom of the river, it would definitely not create such a heavy Yin Qi."

Huo Yinting fell into deep thought: "What weird thing can be to make the whole village shut down like a big enemy?"

The evening breeze shook Yin Yun's clothes hunting and hunting, he was silent for a moment, a strange feeling in his heart, suddenly turned his head to look at her.

"The color and water quality of the river have changed. The allusion of'resentment into blood' once recorded in ancient books is not a fiction, but a real one."

"Well, what then?"

"I think we should figure out what happened in this river, this village."

Before the words fell, the ripples on the river surface not far away suddenly deepened, and the wind was rushing on all sides. A gloomy white shadow passed from the whirlpool, and it appeared beside Yin Yun in an instant.

Huo Yinting said in surprise: "Stay back!"

But it was too late to retreat. If there was a real resentment, it would immediately break the red line between Yin Yun's neck, and the silver pendant he was wearing fell to the ground, and the squalid resentful spirits that continued to gush from the ground were drowned in a flash. He snarled and dragged him into the river with a sharp roar.

From Huo Yinting's throat, there was a sharp and sharp roar. It was the roar of a bird spirit. She fluttered her wings and circled three times from high in the sky. girl.

She leaped towards the river and instantly disappeared in the center of the **** river.

It was late autumn, and the temperature of the Chishui River was colder than expected, with a bitter chill that seemed to freeze in the next moment, and Yin Yun's hands and feet were painful and numb from the cold.

He took a deep breath from the surface of the water and dived into the dark red waves again, his ears hummed, full of the wailing and weeping of the resentful spirits. His sight was always bright and dark, and he couldn't distinguish the specific direction, so he could only grit his teeth and swim forward intuitively.

At this moment, he suddenly felt countless resentful spirits rushing towards him, tightly entangled his ankles, and wanted to work together to drag him into the bottom of the river to drown. The air in his lungs was not enough, and there was some faint pain in his chest. The inherent cruelty was activated in an instant, and he suddenly took off the red maple hand ring on his wrist.

Red Maple hand Chuan burst into red light in an instant, and immediately enveloped him, the resentful spirit that touched the outside of the mask was strongly corroded without exception, screaming away from him.

At almost the same moment, he saw the distant river water suddenly split by a firelight, and the shape of a red lotus suddenly appeared in front of him, and a scorching sensation came on him.

That is the legendary red lotus industry fire.

The unfamiliar and slender silhouette was getting closer and closer. He didn't know who the other party was, but instinctively told him that he was a friend and not an enemy, so he stretched out his hand and grabbed the other party's sleeve tightly, allowing him to swim out of the water with him.

After making sure that Yin Yun was safe, Huo Yinting jumped out of the water and instantly tangled with the female ghost in white, but seeing the golden body protector, her slender fingers were cast like electricity, and her sharp nails carried hot sparks, and the female ghost was pale. A few clear blood stains were drawn on Ruzhi's face.

The female ghost screamed and turned and ran away, and disappeared into the bottom of the river.

Yin Yun knelt on the ground with his knees soft, his face was pale, and his lips were completely bloodless. Seeing her running over to help him, he raised his hand and said with a trembling voice.

"Where is my silver pendant?"

He was referring to the silver pendant that he had been wearing before and was torn off by the female ghost. The pendant was made with meticulous workmanship and was carved into the shape of a dragon's head. It was a good thing at first glance.

Fortunately, just before going down the river, Huo Yinting picked up the pendant easily.

She took out the pendant from her arms, and at the moment of handing it to him, the broken red thread was silently joined in the palm of her palm, becoming the original shape.

She put it on for him and asked in a low voice, "Are you okay? Are you hurt?"

Yin Yun closed his eyes and gasped for a long while, and couldn't help clenching his teeth. He shook his head: "No, it's just a backlash."

Huo Yinting is a bird spirit, and naturally also has a well-informed memory of the bird spirit for eight hundred years. She knows that some bounty spirit detectives with extraordinary talents, although strong, but weak in physique, need to wear amulets to resist the long-term confrontation. Yin Qi-It is estimated that this silver pendant was Yin Yun's amulet, which was torn off by the female ghost just now, which caused him to use magic tricks at the bottom of the river and was backlashed.

"It seems that we must find a place to stay in the village." She helped him up and walked towards the village with him, "When necessary, opening the door is also a way."

Yin Yun raised his eyes and glanced at her with difficulty: "...Are you really that white bird?"

"Yes, what's the problem?"

"So you can transform a human form?"

"It can be turned out inexplicably, and I can't figure it out, but it is not important. It is more important to open the door at present."

"..."

As a result, Huo Yinting's plan had not had time to be implemented. When she randomly selected a dirt house and was about to break in, the door was opened from the inside without warning, and a weather-beaten old face appeared in her sight. .

The old man looked at them carefully, and when he saw the wet clothes of the two and Yin Yun's pale face, he gave way to the side and silently signaled them to enter the house.

Huo Yinting whispered: "Thank you."

It is not difficult to see that the living conditions of the elderly are very poor, and it can even be described as the four walls of the house. Apart from a few dilapidated furniture and a simple wooden bed, there is nothing superfluous in the house.

The old man faltered and led the two to the back room. When he opened his mouth, his voice was hoarse, but his tone was very kind: "Let's sleep here, I will give you the fire."

"What about you?"

"I also have an iron bed outside, so I can sleep on a bedding."

"Then... trouble you."

The old man didn't say much, and after adding new charcoal to the stove, he walked out of the house and closed the door.

Huo Yinting sighed, he carefully helped Yin Yun onto the bed, and then simply and neatly took off Yin Yun's coat soaked in river water, and wrapped the latter tightly with a quilt.

"Cold?"

Yin Yun's breathing was a little quick, and he bent down while holding his heart, still not forgetting to tighten the quilt.

He looked at her helplessly: "You take off the man's clothes so smoothly, didn't you tell me in advance?"

"...I am a bird in your eyes. Does a bird take your clothes off, do you still need to squeeze?" Huo Yinting glanced at him coldly, "not to mention that I am not interested in you, so don't worry. I will take advantage of the fire and rob."

"..." Yin Yun felt that she couldn't communicate with her normally, but she also helped herself just now, so he was silent for a long time, and finally thanked him awkwardly, "Shiratori, I owe you personal love."

Huo Yinting didn't bother to care about him giving herself a nickname. She simply transformed back into a white bird, shaking her wet feathers, and approached the stove.

"You may have more chances to owe favors in the future."

"Oh, I seem to have nothing to say, are you too underestimated by the bounty spirit?"

"I didn't underestimate the bounty detective, I just think you should sleep well."

"..."

The silver pendant smoothly suppressed the Yin Qi backlash, the pain gradually eased, and the suffocation feeling pressed by the heart slowly disappeared. Although he was sleepy, Yin Yun did not sleep. He was wrapped in a quilt, and his mind gradually sobered up, and his expression suddenly became serious when he entered the house.

"Hey, I want to tell you something serious."

Huo Yinting lazily: "You said."

"You probably don't know, I can see the world's few remaining years of life, right?"

That is also one of his natural psychic skills.

"Do you have the ability to continue your life? You will have a lot of it, no wonder the physique is weak." Huo Yinting finished, thoughtfully, "What do you mean... what did you just see?"

Yin Yun nodded.

"what?"

"I saw that the old man's life span is less than three days left."

The author has something to say: This is a new world, and I don’t know if anyone is watching it, but I still have to write this world seriously.

The cutie who is still watching, please raise your hand and let me know.
