Chu Zhuang saw Yu Wenlei coming out of the cabin, so he flipped his hand, and there were two more talismans in his palm. With a "snap", one was posted on Yu Wenlei's chest, and the other was posted on his left shoulder. Then he said, "Although this talisman is not as effective as the Wind Controlling Talisman, it is more than enough to help us jump over this river. It only needs to make the wind seal and sing the proverb of flying to the sky. ”

With that, he quickly sealed his hands and slowly injected his true qi into the talisman, while chanting the proverb in a low voice. Then he kicked the boat with both feet, and flew to the shore like a huge kite.

Seeing that Uncle Chu was almost on the shore, Yu Wenlei did not dare to slack off, and did the same. He happened to have memorized the seal and the proverb when he was a child, and all that was missing was a paper note, which he was now ready to try. When he finished finishing the seal, he happened to spit out the last word of the Flying Proverb in his mouth, and suddenly felt as light as a swallow, so he also tapped the side of the ship and flew in the air to chase Chu Zhuang.

Zhao Lingwei sat in the cabin and was relieved to see the two of them go ashore. She then took out the transmission note and told Xiangyun about her situation, so she sat cross-legged and went to settle down.

The two fell to the shore, and Yu Wenlei said to Chu Zhuang with a smile: "Uncle Chu, you have such a good paper talisman, why didn't you want to take it out and use it before, it's really easy to do it." With that, his toes flew lightly dozens of feet away.

Suddenly, Chu Zhuang appeared in front of Yu Wenlei and said: "This talisman is called the Light Body Talisman, which was originally prepared for crossing the river and crossing the trench, but it can't actually increase the movement speed. It will also consume more True Qi for a long time, making it not suitable for remote use. You kid now understand. ”

Yu Wenlei was not convinced, and boldly retorted: "I clearly feel that the movement is fast, how can you say that it is not fast?" So, he deliberately used the radical method and said: "Uncle Chu, could it be that this talisman is scarce, you are reluctant to let me use it, right?"

Chu Zhuang was not angry, and said with a smile: "You don't believe it, then let's give it a try." There is a pavilion in front of thirty miles, called Wangjiang Pavilion. You use the light talisman, and I will only walk with my true qi to see who gets to the pavilion first. The first to arrive will light a lone fire talisman into the air. How?"

Yu Wenlei had this intention, and hurriedly said: "Okay, but the loser will be punished, so let's treat him!"

"You little ghost, you dare to play tricks!" Chu Zhuang shouted behind him.

"Haha, Uncle Chu, I am willing to lose the bet, you didn't say when it will start, I will take the first step!" After Yu Wenlei finished speaking, he hurried forward.

But it was said that Yu Wenlei was eager to win, drifting all the way, just moving forward. He had only traveled half a distance when he saw a huge fireball in the distance pierce the sky, burst high in the air, and then turned into a flood of fireworks and fell from the sky, like a fairy scattering flowers.

Yu Wenlei was suddenly startled: Uncle Chu has arrived so soon? He was in a hurry, and subconsciously tore off the light talisman and rushed forward, and sure enough, he felt that the speed was a lot faster.

When he arrived at Wangjiang Pavilion, he saw Chu Zhuang with his hands behind his head, leaning on the eaves pillar and falling asleep. Yu Wenlei couldn't cry or laugh, and shouted: "Uncle Chu, don't pretend, I've already arrived." ”

Chu Zhuang sat up sleepily, yawned, stretched his waist, and then said, "Yo, you're finally here, then let's go." After that, he walked out of the pavilion, and muttered in his mouth: "Steamed lamb, steamed bear's paw, steamed deer tail, roasted duck, roasted chicken, roasted pigeon, braised pig, braised duck, sauced chicken, bacon, Songhuaer small belly......"

Yu Wenlei shouted with a crying voice in the back: "Uncle Chu, I was wrong, you just go around me this time, I promise to listen to you next time!"

Chu Zhuang laughed and flew away.

It's night, the backyard of Anping Mansion. In the depths of the labyrinthine dungeon, the brightly lit and magnificent underground hall is surrounded by stone walls, and it seems that this dungeon has been dug into the mountains behind Anping Mansion. As far as the eye could see, there were tree-shaped coffins piled up all around, and two people were standing in the center of the hall. One of them was wrapped in a black robe, his appearance hidden behind a gloomy mask, and the other was a middle-aged man, wearing a collared embroidered cloud and blue gold robe, his eyes were like stars, and his cheeks were drooping and his beard was down.

The middle-aged man was Zhao Lingwei's father, Zhao Xuanlang, the owner of Anping City. At this time, he walked around with his hands behind his back and paced in square steps, as if he was anxiously waiting for someone. Seeing this, the black-robed man said in a hoarse voice, "City Lord Zhao, don't be anxious. Ling Lang has always been steady and proper in his work, and he never makes any mistakes, and this most coffin is far away from here, so it must have been delayed on the road. ”

Zhao Xuanlang suddenly stopped, turned to the black-robed man and said, "Supreme, how sure do you say we are to succeed this time. In order to refine this talisman, it is not enough to use the dead, but also to use the lives of eighty-one living people, as the lord of a city, I can't help but feel a little unbearable. ”

"Hmph!" the black-robed man snorted coldly: "City Lord Zhao's words are wrong, it is actually more difficult to gather eighty-one dead people born on Yin Day!"

Since this talisman is a wood attribute forbidden art, if you want to increase the chance of refining, you must be buried in the trunk of a tree after death. Therefore, I had to become a warlock and go to the sparsely populated barren mountains and mountains to find it, because only such places would be preserved for tree coffins. I have been planning for three years to find all the living people who meet the requirements, and then I will perform spells on them one by one, so that all of them will die within three years.

And you only need to provide eighty-one living people, and what is there to complain about. ”

Zhao Xuanlang saw that the black-robed man was displeased, and hurriedly said: "The Supreme Don't blame, in fact, Zhao didn't mean that." As long as you can refine this talisman, not to mention only eighty-one people, even eight hundred people will not be a problem. The eighty-one living men are ready, locked up in the cell next door, ready to be brought to you at any time. ”

At this time, a house slave outside the hall shouted: "Report to the city lord, the young city lord has arrived." ”

Zhao Xuanlang was overjoyed and glanced at the black-robed man. The black-robed man understood, turned around, and then flew away with a puff of black smoke.

At this moment, Zhao Tianlin pushed the door in. Zhao Xuanlang hurriedly greeted him and asked hurriedly, "Why did Wu'er come back so late today, how did things go?"

Zhao Tianlin bowed down and replied loudly: "If you go back to my father, yesterday when I took out the coffin in Zhangqiao Village and handed it over to the Cao Gang to transport it back to Anping City, I hurried to Qingluo Mountain to dig up the last coffin you confessed.

Daddy, you also know that Qingluo Mountain Wanshou Palace is the dojo of my sister-in-law's master, and it is also the guardian of our Anping City. In order to avoid trouble, I was very careful, but I happened to meet the people of Wanshou Palace, and I didn't want to conflict with them, so I hid my body and waited for them to leave before acting. Later, the coffin was transported back in person, so it was too late. I also hope that I didn't miss my father's big event. ”

Zhao Xuanlang waved his hand and shouted loudly: "Come on, bring in the coffin brought back by the young city lord!" Then he turned to Zhao Tianlin and said kindly: "Wu'er has worked hard, let's go down and rest first, just leave everything here to me." ”

In a few moments, many men in strong suits carried a huge tree-shaped coffin and walked in slowly. Zhao Tianlin stared at the coffin tightly and did not move his figure. After the family put down everything and retreated, he cautiously asked: "Dad, the child has a sentence hidden in his heart for a long time, I don't know whether to say it or not?"

Zhao Xuanlang was stunned for a moment, then stroked his beard with his hand, and said with a smile: "What's wrong with Wu'er today, since you came in, I saw that you looked depressed and lacked energy. Could it be that it was your sister-in-law's master who met in Qingluo Mountain, although her master Yuxian Zhenren is not the palace master, but her Taoism is the most profound in the Wanshou Palace. It is said that his spirit treasure Ten Thousand Skull Banners can release up to 10,000 skulls, and the poisonous smoke emitted by the skeletons can envelop a city in an instant. Back then, your sister was able to worship him as a teacher, which was also a creation. ”

Zhao Tianlin nodded and said, "This kid naturally knows." I did meet Yuxian Zhenren, but don't worry, Dad, I saw him first, so I hid early. The boy was confident that he wasn't aware of me, and I was trying to say something else. ”

Zhao Xuanlang pinched his fingers and calculated, now that it was almost the third watch, he wanted to send his son away, so as not to delay the time for the operation. So he said: "Wu'er Hugh has to think more, if there is anything to talk about tomorrow, Daddy, I will cast a spell later." This is this last moment that must not be missed. ”

Zhao Tianlin was in a hurry, and he couldn't care about the gift of father and son, so he blurted out: "Dare to ask Daddy what this coffin is for." The child always felt that it was not what you said about refining the Awakening Corpse Pill, it should be used for another purpose. ”

Zhao Xuanlang's face sank, and he said, "Tianlin, are you doubting your father?"

Zhao Tianlin lowered his head and did not answer.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Xuanlang had no choice but to say, "What I need is to refine this coffin is to refine the Awakening Corpse Pill." You also know that refining this pill is very difficult, and you need to bury the corpse in the land of extreme yin. It's not so easy to find, so it's a big deal for you. I think you've been running around hard enough for more than a month, so go down and rest. ”

Zhao Tianlin saw that his father was not telling the truth, and he no longer cared about the situation, so he boldly said: "Dare to ask Daddy, refining the corpse awakening pill, you only let the child prepare forty-nine corpses, but there are as many as eighty-one coffins here, what is the reason." ”

Zhao Xuanlang became more and more impatient, and said: "I was afraid that you would work too hard, so I sent others to find another thirty-two coffins, and this corpse awakening pill originally needed eighty-one corpses. ”

"You told the child before that the Awakening Pill and the wind and rain will make the mother come back to life from the Yellow Spring. The child's mind was hot at the time, and he didn't think much about it, but these days, the child feels more and more that what you are doing is extremely ridiculous. Zhao Tianlin said proudly.

"Shut up!" Zhao Xuanlang saw that his son, who had always been docile and modest, suddenly dared to accuse himself, and couldn't help but shout angrily: "I have worked hard to find that wind and rain and memories, and now in order to refine this, this corpse awakening pill is even more hollowed out." What am I doing all this for, not to bring your mother back to life and reunite us as a family. You blame the father!"

Zhao Tianlin saw that his father was furious, and hurriedly lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "The child doesn't dare to blame you, if you can resurrect your mother again, it is naturally the child's expectation." I think back then, when I left Anping Mansion, I was only five years old, and I never saw my mother again, not even the last time she was alive.

But the child wants to ask you, what are the eighty-one living people in the prison next door for? The child does not want to have to pay eighty-one lives for the sake of his mother's resurrection. Daddy, did you take advantage of the fact that my sister and I were not in the city, and secretly ordered the Cao Gang to catch them from the countryside?"

Zhao Xuanlang heard his son say about the detention of the living, his expression tightened, and then he sighed and said, "Don't worry, Daddy is not so confused." They're all on death row, and I had them escorted here last night. ”

Zhao Tianlin's face was full of grief and indignation, and he said: "Dad, you never said that you need a living person to refine the Awakening Corpse Pill, what did you say you were refining?"

Suddenly, a puff of black smoke rose from the two of them. When the smoke cleared, there was a black-robed man standing in front of him. Zhao Tianlin was taken aback and hurriedly stopped his father behind him.

The black-robed man smiled and said, "Young City Lord, I might as well tell you, the City Lord is not refining any corpse awakening pills, but Taixuansheng Fu! ”
