Chapter 178: The Corpse (9)

The three-headed monster fell to the ground and smashed three big holes into the street, and Zhang Shuwen also fell to the ground, prostrating and lying on the ground in a dejected state.

The onlookers saw that the battle had stopped, and the three-headed monster was lying motionless in the pit, and rushed towards Zhang Shuwen with courage. When they got closer, they knelt down one after another, shouting in their mouths to thank the real person for eliminating the demon.

The prefect also separated the crowd under the protection of several close guards, walked up to Zhang Shuwen, and thanked him with a grateful face.

Zhang Shuwen sat on the ground and shook his head tiredly: "Don't be busy thanking you first." The three-headed monster hasn't been completely eliminated yet. ”

"What!?"

When everyone heard this, they were shocked and immediately wanted to flee again. Seeing this, Zhang Shuwen hurriedly shouted: "Don't be afraid, now they can't hurt people for the time being." He turned to the prefect and said, "This lord, if you want to completely control these three-headed monsters, you still need your help." ”

"What can the lower officials help, Xiaodao Chief, just say. "This prefect has seen the skills of Zhang Beichong and Zhang Shuwen, and he is very modest in speaking at this moment.

"With the current state of the poor road, I can't kill these three monsters, but fortunately, the Five Thunder Righteous Law of my Dragon and Tiger Mountain has a strong suppressive effect on this kind of evil thing. Therefore, Fang Cai Poor Dao used all his true qi to give these three monsters a strong blow, and temporarily suppressed them with the help of Lei Fa, but at most an hour later, they would recover and hurt people again. Zhang Shuwen looked at the official uniform on the prefect's body and continued: "And my lord, the official uniform on your body is embroidered with the Rui Beast regulated by the imperial court, which has the effect of suppressing evil spirits. So, you'll have to borrow your official uniform to press them. ”

"How long does it take to press?" The prefect was a little distressed, the official uniform on his body was newly made, and he hadn't worn it for a few days.

"I'm afraid I'll have to keep pressing. You can't come back in this official uniform. Zhang Shuwen said a little embarrassed.

"Oh. The prefect covered his heart in pain, where is this pressed with official uniforms, this is pressed with his own silver. Fortunately, the old one was not willing to throw it away, so I turned it out of the closet and sewed it up and wore it first.

"Three pieces. Zhang Shuwen added.

"Ahh

It is said that during the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court had a specific institution dedicated to making court clothes for officials, and under normal circumstances, new officials went to the institution to collect them as soon as they took office. However, when it came to the Qing Dynasty, the imperial court did not give official uniforms, but issued some cloth for officials, and some 'complements' corresponding to their respective official ranks, and officials needed to take the fabrics and 'complements' to the tailor shop to customize, of course, in the tailor shop to customize it out of their own pocket, and the court was not responsible.

In addition, when officials go to a certain place to take up their posts, they have to be responsible for themselves, and after they take office, they also pay for the money for the honor guards; in ordinary times, they are sent to greet and entertain colleagues in other official duties, and there are occasional visits to their superiors to inspect, and the officials themselves are responsible for the expenses that need to be entertained.

Therefore, if you are not particularly greedy, especially greedy people, you will have a relatively poor life as an official in the Qing Dynasty. Especially Qing officials, it is common for their families to be surrounded by walls.

After Zhang Shuwen finished speaking, he couldn't help but be surprised when he saw the prefect's distressed look: "My lord, what's wrong with you?"

"It's true. Even if he endured the pain of his flesh and let it out, in addition to the official uniform on his body, the lower official only had one in the cabinet at home. Where can I find the third piece?"

"Then you can think of another way. Zhang Shuwen was also helpless, he looked up at the quiet sky, knowing that the master had gone elsewhere with the big monster, and then looked around, and the strange old man was missing nearby. He was worried about Master's safety, but he was also anxious that he would not be able to destroy the three-headed monster as soon as possible, and he couldn't help but sigh.

"Don't worry, Xiaodao Chief, Xia Guan thinks about whether he can find another one. The prefect said, and immediately sent someone back to the mansion to inform the lady and go to get the old clothes.

The prefect's wife rummaged through the cabinets at home, and finally found the third official uniform, which was worn by the prefect several years ago when he was just an official. Now when I take it out again, I see that it is full of holes that have been bitten by insects and ants, and they are almost rotten cloth.

After waiting for more than half an hour, the guards retrieved two sets of old clothes, and the prefect hurriedly took off his official uniform. Zhang Shuwen asked them to bring their official uniforms to him, spread them out on the ground, and he bit his fingers and used blood to draw a talisman spell on each of the three official uniforms. Then they handed it back and told them to put it on the three-headed monster.

"The general is here?" The prefect read the words on the seal, and a trace of surprise flashed on his face, he is a civil official, how can he write a general?

Zhang Shuwen didn't explain, just let them put on the three-headed monster.

Several guards walked up to the three-headed monster tremblingly with official uniforms, scared in their hearts, they shouldn't start, and the prefect kept urging: "It's going to be an hour soon, and when it's time for it to wake up, eat a few of you first!"

The guards gritted their teeth, stomped their feet, and fought. Several people suppressed their fear, endured their nausea, and hurriedly put on the three-headed monster.

After doing it, the prefect asked Zhang Shuwen what to do next.

Zhang Shuwen frowned and thought for a while, and said, "Poor Dao remembers that there is a Wuhou Temple here?"

"Yes, yes. ”

"Zhuge Wuhou is illuminated by the divine power, although it has not faded for thousands of years. These three-headed monsters can be buried near the Wuhou Temple, so that they will never wake up. Zhang Shuwen said.

"Okay, let the officials do it. When the prefect saw that the matter was about to be resolved, his joy was overflowing, and he immediately sent someone to find something to load on the three-headed monster and transport it to the vicinity of the Wuhou Temple.

Zhang Shuwen rested for a short while, then got up and left, and the prefect did not stop when he said that he would stay, and staggered and chased in the direction where the master left.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Shuwen was by a small river dozens of miles away from Jinguan City when he saw the master sitting on a stone with his eyes closed and pranayama.

He noticed that Master's face was very tired, and his gray hair was a little more. Hearing the movement of someone approaching, Zhang Beichong opened his eyes and saw the embarrassed appearance of the little apprentice, and smiled reluctantly.

Zhang Shuwen said that he followed his master to Jinguan City, met the strange old man again, and subdued the three-headed monster.

Zhang Beichong nodded after hearing this, and sighed: "Fortunately, you followed me out, otherwise the people in Jinguan City would have been killed by those three-headed monsters." ”

"Master, who is that old man?"

"It is one of the four protectors of the Lich Clan, an ancient witch who has lived for thousands of years, and his skills are unfathomable. If you run into him in the future, be careful. Zhang Beichong admonished.

"He said he had raised the monster. Is his monster powerful?"

"Very strong. did his best for the teacher, and relied on the Five Thunder Rectification Method, which has a strong suppression effect on the evil spirits, but he only fought a draw with his corpse leader. Zhang Beichong palpitated: "Moreover, he said that a corpse like that, he still has nine heads." ”

"Ahh "One head can be a draw with you, if he releases all ten heads, then he can pay it back?"

"Yes, the teacher is also worried about this. Zhang Beichong sighed and said quietly: "Only the inn can compete with them." ”

"Inn?" Zhang Shuwen had never heard of before.

......

Small hole days.

Wu Ran was in a good mood, and he walked vigorously in the woods between the mountains, followed by the corpse leader who had been silent.

The strength of that Zhang Family Heavenly Master is probably stronger than the first Ding Great Witch in the clan, but it is not as good as the Second Ding Great Witch. Wu Ran thought so in his heart.

The corpse kui fought with the Zhang family Heavenly Master, and it was because he suffered the loss of being suppressed by his five thunder righteous law, so he reluctantly became a draw, if he didn't have the five thunder righteous method, he would definitely not be the opponent of the corpse kui. In other words, the real strength of the corpse leader should be on par with the real Erding Great Witch. Wu Ran was happy when he thought of this, the other old guys in the clan have all focused on teaching the younger generations, but they have never seen them teach a second ding witch for more than two hundred years, and I already have ten corpses here that are comparable to the second ding great witch.

But. Wu Ran's brows furrowed again: The strength of the corpse leader was strongest in the middle of the night, and at noon, it was weakened a lot due to the influence of the sun's extreme yang qi. Moreover, the difference between the strength of these two time periods is very large, almost half of the top position.

While thinking about it, Wu Ran and the corpse had already come to the grass where ten black coffins were standing, one of which was open, and the lid was thrown on the grass on the side.

Wu Ran rang the bell, and the corpse obediently returned to the coffin and closed the lid himself.
