Li Zizhi took his two junior brothers down the mountain and came to a market town, the market town is near the river, and the open boats are parked horizontally and vertically in the river port, and the river port goes up to the street.

The lights are hanging high, bright as the stars, the sky is dark, there are still people coming and going on the stone wharf, carried back and forth by the bearers, the pedal between the side of the ship and the wharf, constantly ups and downs, making a "hi" sound.

The wharf is surrounded by a river bay, and there are very few houses on the street, most of which are inns, restaurants, restaurants, tea shops, and rice shops.

Li Zizhi glanced around vigilantly, saw that there was nothing suspicious, and then walked forward.

Butler rice line

The guy approached in a few steps: "The owner - the people are coming!"

"Who?" Guan Youshan shuddered.

"The people on the Taoist temple have come down. Guan Youshan stood up and said, "Quick, please!"

Three steps and two steps out of the gate, I saw three people standing at the gate, one was familiar, the Taoist who used to collect grain, and the other two were not familiar, but depending on the situation, the unfamiliar person in the middle is the main thing.

"Who are you?"

"This is Senior Brother Li Zizhi. The Taoist who used to collect grain said, Guan Youshan hurriedly invited in, Li Zizhi glanced at it, and asked, "Are you ready?"

"It's all ready. Guan Youshan was stunned, smiled all over his face, and said, "Please go down the mountain yourself, according to the old rules, the tenants will hand over the newly cut wheat here." ”

"The harvest of 300 acres and the newly added acres of land has been converted into fifty taels of silver, and half of rice and half of flour, packed in sacks, a total of eighty stones, please count them!"

Li Zizhi glanced at this person seriously, smiled, and said, "Let's go in and have a look." ”

When we arrived at the warehouse, the night was getting deeper, the torches were lit, and the man opened the door, and when he went in, he saw that the warehouse was clean, but it was full of faint mold and rot.

I went up and opened a sack, touched a handful of flour, licked it, and then nodded with a little satisfaction: "It is indeed this year's newly ground flour." ”

Guan Youshan said with a smile: "I have been doing business with the Taoist Temple for several or five years, and the new field in the temple has recently increased to 500 acres, and it is said that the field will be increased in the coming year, how dare I do tricks in it?"

"In the future, I have to rely on the view to find food. ”

Hearing these words, Li Zizhi still had some recognition, it was impossible for Taoists to collect rent one by one, so he entrusted this housekeeper rice shop to deal with tenants very early.

This process has been twenty years, and it can't be said that there is nothing wrong with it at all, but at least they can accept each other, and after checking it, Li Zizhi let out a sigh: "Yes, just follow this." ”

"Dao Chief, please come in for dinner!" Guan Youshan breathed a sigh of relief: "Quick, bring the food up, put the wine on the altar - I'll go and tell the guy to put the sack in the car." ”

"Tomorrow morning to the mountain. ”

The three Taoists were satisfied, and while they were talking, the seats in the hall had been placed, and the men smiled and invited them in, and saw that the lights were on inside, and the roasted pork chops on the table, the burnt skin was dripping with oil, and there was a cut beef slice, and the rest was full of fragrant aromas, which was enough for a feast.

The two junior brothers smiled: "Why is the boss so generous today?"

said that he was about to eat when he was salivating, but Li Zizhi's face sank and he waved his hand: "Wait!"

The two junior brothers were a little baffled, but they also stopped, and they heard Li Zizhi shouting: "Take care of the boss, manage the good?"

He shouted three times in a row, but no one answered, and when he looked again, it was quiet for a while, and the lights in the storeroom, yard, and stables were all turned off, and it was dark.

"No!" all three of them felt that something was wrong, and drew their swords, and at that moment one of them sighed: "Why do you have to struggle, if you use this wine and rice, at least you will be a full ghost!"

Before the words fell, the figures swayed, and twenty figures poured in, although there were many people, but they were quiet and orderly, except for the sound of moving footsteps, it was the sound of the long knife slashing, and a fierce aura rushed up.

"Who are you?" Li Zizhi knew that this was not a good manpower, and shouted loudly.

"Kill!" the other party had ordered.

"Kill!" The more than twenty people pounced, and the two sides were immediately killed, and the black-clothed man in the leader looked at him from behind, and did not speak.

As soon as they made contact, the three Taoists realized that the other party was not a weak hand, and the killing retreated, and a junior brother suddenly waved his hand: "Flash technique." ”

A strong light erupted in front of "Peng", Li Zizhi's body deviated sideways, and he stabbed with a sword, but the other party seemed to have been on guard, although he closed his eyes for a while, but with a shout, he danced the knife technique and slashed indiscriminately.

Originally, one person could just cut it back, and there were always flaws, but several people cut it together, only to see the sword light like snow, and a junior brother took the opportunity to attack according to the teacher's training, stabbed with a sword, and stabbed into the chest of one person.

"Ahh

Li Zizhi screamed, fought hard, stabbed a person with a long sword, and listened to the sound of gold and iron hitting each other, Li Zizhi swept three feet obliquely, and there was an extra blood mouth on his body, and the rest of the junior disciples had been hugged and hacked to death.

"Who are you?" Li Zizhi gritted his teeth, the man in black did not answer, with a wave of his hand, the five people pounced, the knife light was connected, and the moves cooperated, Li Zizhi struggled desperately, or retreated again and again, from time to time he was stabbed, and finally heard a "kill", and a knife pierced deep into his body.

Li Zizhi let out a miserable scream, but the next moment, the knife flashed, the scream stopped abruptly, and his head flew out.

Day 2

The head and a few elders walked all the way through a dark alleyway, and saw a few disciples waiting with pale faces, and the head asked, "Are they all inside?"

"Yes, it's all in there. ”

When the head and the elder entered, they saw that there were spots of blood on the threshold, and when they stepped forward, they saw several corpses, all of which were placed on the couch.

Some of the couches are clean except for some blood scabs, and they have been dead for a while, and some are dripping and spotted with blood spots, and they have not had much time to die.

"This is the sixth of this gate. The head looked at the freshest corpse, and his face was pale: "Zhao Ning, what do you think?"

"The situation is very simple, that is, the enemy has already launched an attack, killing our disciples on the periphery first, targeting the backbone, in order to weaken us. Zhao Ning also said with a pale face.

"Did you find out who it was?"

"We are passive and can't find out, but we can be sure that this is an attack by the Daomen, because when we used the magic to investigate, we encountered the counterattack of the Daomen's mana. ”

"This trace of Daomen's mana has been passed down to the blessed land patriarch, and there must be an answer in the near future. ”

"Can you report to the government and ask for support?" asked the boss again, not feeling that asking for help from the government was a matter of losing face.

"It's very difficult, there are not a few soldiers in the county, and there are only a thousand days to be a thief, and there is no matter of a thousand days to prevent thieves, and it is difficult for officers and soldiers to be stationed for a few days. Zhao Ning replied seriously: "Of course, more importantly, I am afraid that the government will refuse with excuses - if the other party is a Daomen, it will definitely be dotted." ”

"Try it first, if not. The head said, and turned his face to Yu Yunjun again: "Where is Pei Ziyun now, hurry up and urge him to come back." ”

Yu Yunjun replied: "The last time I went to Du'an County, it shouldn't be very far now." ”

"Push him down again, let him come back soon. ”

"Yes!" Yu Yunjun responded.

A disciple listened with his ears in, and then the head of the sect said, "Zhang Yin!"

This disciple hurriedly responded: "Here!"

"Take them and wash all the blood off their bodies, sew up all their wounds, put on new clothes, put them in coffins, and put them in this house. ”

"There is a magic circle in this temple, which can maintain a period of incorruptibility, and when the matter is completed, it will be buried one by one. ”

"Yes!" the disciple responded.

Seeing the head and the elder go out, a few disciples stepped forward, someone boiled hot water, washed them with hot water one by one, the blood water was brought out, and after washing, they were indeed sewn with needles, and then put on clothes and put them in coffins, these six corpses were all busy, and it was already close to dusk.

Zhang Yin's face was a little bad, and a disciple comforted: "Senior Brother Zhang, it's normal for people to vomit when you look at this, let's just eat without meat tonight." ”

When the curtain fell, it was raining outside, Zhang Yin didn't say anything, and said reluctantly: "I'll go back and rest, don't call me for dinner, I'll go to the cafeteria to find some when I'm hungry." ”

Saying that, he turned around and left, and when he got into the rain, seeing that there was no one around, Zhang Yin suddenly stepped down the mountain with one foot high and one foot low, walked through the mountain road, walked to the foot of the mountain, wiped his forehead full of rain and looked back, there were buildings and lights in the rain.

There is a three-room room at the foot of the mountain, which is for pilgrims to rest and shelter from the rain, at this time there is no one, Zhang Yin entered, stepping on the brick floor, the faces of several familiar senior brothers seemed to be in front of him, after all, it was five years of love, and in a blink of an eye, life and death parted, as if a nightmare, staring outside, the rain was not heavy, but it was still falling, Zhang Yin was stunned for a long time, and then sighed: "Don't think about it, you go undercover and know that there is this day." ”

"They are not your brothers, even if they have known each other for five years. ”

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Yin took out a talisman, just a little, a little aura appeared on the talisman, and in a blink of an eye, the aura turned into a figure, seeing this person, Zhang Yin removed distracting thoughts and knelt down: "The disciple has seen Elder Xu." ”

"You contacted me urgently, what's the matter?" asked Elder Xu on the other side.

"I heard the news just now, saying that Songyunmen has been contacting Pei Ziyun, and the last place of contact was Du'an County, and now I quickly rushed back. ”

"Pei Ziyun, Du'an County!" Elder Xu's voice immediately became a little more serious, it was obvious that Pei Ziyun's name still had a great deterrent effect, and after a pause, he said, "Understood, you wait for a while, and I will give you an answer." ”

"Yes!"

With these words, the aura of Fu Ying gradually dissipated, but a trace was retained, Zhang Yin looked at the wind and rain, but he had a sense of relief, and he couldn't bear it just now, and he laughed at himself a little more.

A few miles away, in a small valley, some people gathered together, and an altar was being built, although the altar was very small, but it was very detailed, there were many runes on the altar, and there were flags.

And a few people were pointing, listening to the news at this time, with a calm face: "Pei Ziyun, are you coming back?"
