Chapter Seventy-Three,
Erji thought for a while, nodded, and said, "The city lord has a wife and five concubines, but he only has one daughter under his knees, named Lin Jinzhi, and has no heirs. ”
That's really like a baby.
Lan Qing asked, "Where are his wives and children?"
Bai Lang sighed twice and looked at the man in the coffin: "Looking at him like this, his wife and children should all become puppets, right?"
Erji denied: "No, Immortal Chief, what you said this time is not entirely right. The wife and daughter of the city lord went to Tongming Mountain to practice meditation as early as two years ago, and there has been no news so far. And his five concubines were indeed made into puppets, and they were the first batch of puppets, which should have long been turned into ashes. ”
Lan Qing grabbed the key word, and his eyes lit up: "Two years ago?"
"Yes. Erji nodded.
If she remembers correctly, two years ago seemed to be the time when those two black-robed men appeared.
Bai Lang smiled: "You city lord is interesting, you can't expect the next thing to happen, so you specially sent your wife and daughter out, right?"
Erji shook off the dust, and hesitated: "It's not a secret, in fact, the city lord's wife was angry and ran away." ”
"The husband and wife of the city lord have always been in love with each other, and they are often passed down as a good story in the city. But just two years ago, the city lord suddenly brought back five beautiful girls from outside, and said that he was going to marry them. ”
The city lord's wife was furious for a while, and had a big quarrel with the city lord, but to no avail. Later, on his wedding day, he left with his only daughter. After that, I heard that they were practicing meditation with Zongyang Shitai in Tongming Mountain, and they had decided not to care about the world anymore. ”
Yue raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then such a big thing happened in Jincheng, and they didn't know about it?"
Erji shook his head: "I don't know about this, what I just said are all folk rumors, and there are traces to follow." Only the wife and daughter of the city lord said that they were in Tongming Mountain, but it was like the world had evaporated, no one knew their condition, and no one went out of their way to find them. ”
"Besides, Tongming Mountain is a hundred and ten miles away from Jincheng, so it may not be a problem for cultivators, and Edgeworth will arrive in half a day. But for us ordinary people, it takes two or three days to drive a carriage. ”
Erji sighed, I really don't know how the mother and daughter did it.
Bai Lang cast a strange look at Lan Qing, how do you feel about this mother and daughter......
Lan Qing pursed the corners of her lips, lowered her eyes and looked at the black-faced corpse, without saying a word.
It's useless to speculate, the most important thing at the moment is to find those two black-robed people first.
First Jing Ci, then the Jincheng City Lord, what do they want to do?
Bai Lang stared at the person in the coffin for a moment, and the afterglow suddenly swept to a dark red jade pendant on his waist.
Suspicious, he pulled it off and looked at it in his hand.
Suddenly, the underground palace began to shake!
There was a dull buzzing sound around him, and large chunks of soil fell from above, fortunately protected by Lan Qing's enchantment, otherwise he would have been poured into ashes at this time!
"Ah, what's going on?" Erji looked around in panic.
Rumble!
The mountains shook for a while, and the ten pillars broke together!
The black-faced man in the coffin opened his eyes and stood up straight, his empty gaze staring at Bai Lang.
In the next second, he let out a roar like a beast!
The clods of dirt above his head fell even more, crackling down.
Sheng Yang and Yue Qi quickly guarded Lan Qing's sides, and there was a shrunken Erji in the middle.
Bai Lang unhurriedly took the jade pendant into his arms and sighed: "Why are you so loud? I'm not deaf yet." ”
The black-faced city lord roared again, attacking him with teeth and claws, and Bai Lang was leisurely, just watching him rush towards him!
"Ahh
As soon as the words fell, the black-faced city lord's movements stopped. Stiffly turning his head, just as Erji thought he was going to change direction and attack, there was a thud and a small thing flew past his ear!
The body of the black-faced city lord exploded without warning, and a strong black qi erupted from his body and dispersed in all directions.
After a long time, it was calm.
The black chess piece quietly returned to Lan Qing's palm and disappeared.
Erji muttered in disbelief, "That's it...... Dead?"
Bai Lang replied with a smile: "Otherwise, I'll fight him again?"
Erji hurriedly waved his hand and shook his head: "No, no, no, no!"
Bai Lang looked away at Lan Qing and said, "Let's go out first, I have something good to show you." ”
When Erji heard this, he was pleasantly surprised: "Huh, can you still go out?"
Bai Lang couldn't hold back, burst out laughing, too lazy to say so much, one turned over and stepped over the coffin and walked to Lan Qing's side.
Lan Qing's hands rose with a faint white light, and suddenly they closed together, and the palms of his palms were full of light.
Everyone only felt that there was a flower in front of them, and before they had time to react, they slammed and fell to the ground.
Bai Lang sat up, patted the soil on his body, looked at Lan Qing, who was the only one standing, and said helplessly: "Do you dare to be a little rude." ”
Lan Qing glanced at him expressionlessly and didn't speak.
They had already come out of the barrier, and the strange human-faced tree was still in front of them, and the blood flowers of Manzhu were still everywhere around them.
Sheng Yang looked at Lan Qing with a somewhat complicated gaze, he used to want to be a person who could compete with her, but now it seems that he is just wishful thinking.
Shizun is a height that he will never be able to reach.
The sky has been faintly white, and the night has passed like this.
Erji sat on the ground and could not recover during the day, and the night had made him haggard. Although his life was saved, he was still in a trance for the rest of his life.
When I returned to the inn again, it was already dawn.
The people of the Washengmen excitedly expressed their gratitude to Lan Qing and the others, and did not surprise the old people with tears: "Lao Dao is here to thank the immortal elders for their help, otherwise our Jincheng will really be destroyed!"
Lan Qing said: "Although Jincheng has been saved, the people in the city are powerless to return to the sky. The City Lord's Mansion has been enchanted by me, so please remember not to break in. ”
The Manzhu blood flower has all been removed, but the tree that was sent to the soul was still left by Lan Qing, and there was a trace of luck in his heart, maybe they could still be saved.
Not surprised, people were puzzled: "Why did you seal the City Lord's Mansion?"
Bai Lang was a little impatient, pointed at Erji, and said, "Oh, okay, your disciple knows everything, let him tell you slowly later." Where's my donkey?"
When the little disciple of the Wadosanmen heard this, he hurriedly ran to the back kitchen of the inn and led a horse and a donkey out.
They are clearly well cared for, and the donkey is still chewing on something.
Bai Lang flicked the donkey's ears and raised his eyebrows: "Yo roar? Brother Donkey looks good." ”
The gray donkey half drooped his eyelids, and his two thick lips purred and squirted.
This time, Bai Lang easily dodged as if he had foreseen, jumped with the reins, and sat on the back of the donkey.
Lan Qing bowed slightly to the people of Dushengmen, and said, "Since the puppet soldiers have been resolved, we will not stay longer, so we will leave." ”
"Congratulations to the Immortal Chief!"
The people of Washomen clasped their fists and saluted.
Lan Qing turned over and got on his horse, Bai Lang followed closely behind, and Sheng Yang and Yue Qi Edgeworth slowly followed behind them.
Out of Jincheng, Bai Lang suddenly spoke, and said leisurely: "Go to the Valley of No Return, I want to be Rong Tuantuan." ”
When the two people behind them heard this, their eyes were filled with hope.
After a long time, Lan Qing gently replied with one word: "Okay." ”
——
Not far away, a man said to the bearded man beside him: "Hey, Brother Zhang, are those two weirdos you met in the restaurant before?"
The bearded man nodded: "I really didn't expect that they would go to Jincheng." ”
"Didn't you say before that they seemed to be very interested in Mrs. Jing's family affairs? You said that if they knew that Mrs. Jing's family had been destroyed, would they ......?"
“...... Who knows, maybe it's just like us, just listen to it and laugh and laugh. ”
