After everything was over, several people from the Li family's rescue station tied up the old man, who was said to be an elder of the Gu clan, with a bundle of immortal locks, and dragged him into the firewood room for questioning.

There, although they talked for less than a stick of incense, Qi Yuan felt that a year had passed. Suddenly, Ji Yuan's shout came from upstairs, "You dare!" After a while, I heard Ji Yuan lose his voice: "No." But he soon lowered his tone again, as if afraid that someone would hear what they were talking about.

After that, the sound was still faint. Just a few words made the already restless people even more agitated.

After half an hour of negotiation, they walked down one after another. Seeing the solemn expressions of the five people, no one knew what the result would be. It wasn't until Ji Yuan approached Qi Yuan that he saw a smile on her face.

She said, "Very well, let's go to the Drunken Fairy and find someone." ”

The spring rain is dashing, and there are few people in the audience watching, but they are still singing on stage.

This kind of grass stage class, singing for a day is a day's meal money, even if it is windy and rainy, it does not dare to stop. Even if you can't make a few dollars from singing, it will take a day to put it together.

After Shen, the sky became more and more dark, wrapped in cold rain, and the dampness on his clothes was so cold that it almost penetrated into the bone marrow. The people in the field walked a little more, and they became thinner.

On the contrary, the guy became more and more enthusiastic, and he didn't dare to slack off when mixing tea and delivering water, and at this time, those who were willing to sit below and watch were all hardcore old customers.

There was a man in the corner whom he had never seen before, and the man wiped his face with his sleeve, and looked over there through the gray sky, and the man looked about thirty or so.

With a broken hat with a wide edge, the long hair and towering cheekbones were exposed underneath, the clothes were disheveled, almost tattered, the body was very thin, thin and skinny, and looked extremely haggard, only in early spring, but barefoot and wearing a pair of broken straw sandals, it was actually a beggar.

The man was thinking about whether to drive him away, and he walked a few steps over there, but found something strange, although this man's clothes were torn and dirty, his hands and feet were very white and delicate, not at all like a beggar, and the broken blood blisters could be seen between the mud on his feet, and the straw sandals were also full of blood.

What is this man's origin, the man muttered, and left him alone, and if he didn't get it, he would get into trouble.

The man seemed to be a knowledgeable man, although he didn't say a word, and occasionally raised his head, but it was all on the joints, and the essence of his eyes seemed to be bright and extinguished in the hat.

There was a sudden burst of applause in the field, although it was sparse, but the drummers were clearly selling their strength.

Xiao Dan walked on the stage, read a few words with the little student, and then babbled and sang, and the audience was still sparsely discussing before, but at this time it was silent, as if drunk.

The first impression of this Xiaodan is not beautiful, it is a kind of charming charm, all the way to the bones, a smile and a cheek, the eye waves flow, the delicate flowers are beautiful, as if the bones are soft.

Although his eyebrows are clear and his eyes are beautiful, and his teeth are red and his lips are red, he has forgotten the appearance of the jade man, and he is only intoxicated by the charming eyes.

Although it stops on the shallow platform of Zhangyu in this place, it seems to be in the Qiong Garden, Yaobi Immortal Township, surrounded by phoenixes, I don't know what day it is.

There was also a look of confusion in the eyes of the man in the corner. recalled that the first one written on the sign outside was named Jing Yu, and I thought it was him.

But I couldn't help but be a little surprised, how could such a character only stay in this grass stage troupe.

After a play, Jing Yu gave a salute and was about to go down, and there was a burst of cheers below. The head of the team just bowed with a smile: "You are all old guests, and you also know that Jing Yu has always been a day and has never made an exception, and I hope you will bear with me." ”

A guest stood up, "Isn't it just that there are few guests today, I will pay ten taels of silver to let him sing again, and it will not be in vain for a few of us to guard him." ”

The team leader was stunned, meaning some activities, and glanced at Jing Yu, but Jing Yu smiled shyly and didn't answer, meaning just to step down.

"In this way, I will give Jing Yu another ten taels, and I will sing this fold before leaving today. ”

The people in the audience agreed and applauded again.

The guy turned around, the man in the corner had already left, and when he turned back, Jing Yu on the stage was gone.

The door of the courtyard was only hidden, and the man hesitated for a moment, stretched out his hand and squeaked open, and the door was very rotten and mossy, and it seemed to fall apart when he pushed and closed.

The yard is very small, the ground is covered with rain, and there is an old pomegranate tree in front of the house, the branches and leaves are very luxuriant, even at night, it looks thick and verdant. The two tiled houses, low and dilapidated, seemed to have not been rebuilt for a long time, and the walls were overgrown with weeds and peeling plaster.

Under the pomegranate tree, the light shone through the broken window paper, and a thin figure was reflected in the window paper, sitting at the table, holding his head with his hands, and from time to time there was a violent coughing sound.

The man stepped forward and knocked on the door.

"Come in. The man inside finally stopped coughing and said.

The man walked in.

There was only a pitted table in the room, a bed, a patched bed, and nothing else.

The coarse tile oil lamp on the table was dimly lit, Jing Yu had already removed her makeup, her face was extremely pale, like a beautiful jade under the lamp, but there was a light peach on her cheeks.

Compared with the daytime stage, there is an indescribable feeling, the body is extremely thin, weak and weak, wearing a thin jacket, and the white middle coat is lined with blood stains on the chest.

The guest stood for a long time and did not speak for a moment.

Jing Yu smiled shyly, got up and gave him the chair to sit on, picked up the tea cup on the table, covered it with his sleeve and wiped the blood stains on the mouth, washed it in the back, and poured tea from a black sand pot and brought it over.

"The family is poor and can't afford to entertain guests, so the gentleman will be fine. ”

The guest showed a strange look, took the tea, and did not speak.

Jing Yu sat down on the bed.

"Mr. today also came to see me singing?"

"Oh, you see?"

Jing Yu smiled, under the lamp is not as soft as on the stage, but it reveals a trace of desolation in the beauty, which makes people feel more and more indescribable pity.

"You left when they asked me to sing again. ”

"I didn't expect you to look so closely. ”

Jing Yu smiled, "Am I singing badly?"

The guest shook his head.

Jing Yu lowered his head and coughed twice, and said with a half-smile, "Why is that?"

"I know you're not going to sing any more. ”

"Oh?" Jing Yu looked up.

The guest didn't speak, just looked at the blood on his chest.

Jing Yu smiled shyly, pulled the jacket to his chest, and coughed slightly. "Haven't asked the guest's last name yet?"

The guest hesitated, "The surname is Zhang, Zhang San." ”

Jing Yu smiled slightly, "Why is Bai Gongzi incognito now, Ji Yuan called you over?"

Bai Qin was taken aback and looked up at him.

Jing Yu was about to speak, when he suddenly choked on a cough, and Bai Qin hurriedly handed him the tea. Jing Yu took two sips and barely regained his breath.

"It's for the Li family's business......"

"You know a lot. Bai Qin said lightly.

Jing Yu smiled lightly, "Yes, I know." ”

"When did you see me?"

"No, I guessed it. ”

"Huh?"

Jing Yu choked and coughed, bowing slightly, "In recent days, according to the chaos of this border, I really can't think of any other candidate except you." ”

Bai Qin looked at him, "So you're not surprised that I'm here today." ”

Jing Yu nodded, "I also guessed that Ji Yuan would come." But she ...... What's wrong with her?"

Bai Qin's face couldn't help showing a hint of discoloration, and after a while, he said again, "I also want to ask a question, Brother Jiang is such a master, how can he be here?"

Jing Yu smiled faintly and did not answer.

Bai Qin also smiled, "I just asked the head of the team, last time a rich businessman asked you to sing and was rejected by you, and you even rewarded the son of the General's Mansion for a slap, so the big class in the city didn't dare to tolerate you anymore." ”

Jing Yu smiled, with a hint of sarcasm, but he still asked again very seriously: "Ji Yuan, ...... What's going on?"

Bai Qin smiled bitterly: "Okay, I really can't hide it from you." Originally, the five of us made an appointment to come to you all the way to find out some news...... However, who knew that I met ...... on the way"

They met the secret guards of the Storm Listening Tower, and there were no less than a hundred people!

Although many people still only know a little about this Miao City that collapsed inexplicably, he still knows what kind of organization this shocking rain building is.

Unlike those "company-exclusive departments" like the Silent Demon Sect or the Remnant Blood Sect where Qi Qingyun belongs, the Shocking Wind and Rain Building is a bit like a "courier company" all over the other world.

It is the employer who sends the order, puts the corresponding gratuity or treasure in the building by a special person, and then they transfer the list to the person who tries to take the order to do the task, and then notify the employer after the building confirms the successful completion of the task, and finally distributes the honorarium and draws the corresponding dividends, such a set of processes.

Of course, this set of rules is simple to say, but if there is no absolute strength and threat behind it, I am afraid that it will not even exist for a day.

In the first few years, there were many people who wanted to break through the iron rules of the Listening to the Wind and Rain Building and directly seek huge profits. And it is precisely because of the iron-blooded methods of the people in the building that this outlier was finally recognized by this great river and lake.

Therefore, it is thankless to find trouble in the frightened wind and rain building, and the mastermind behind the order who wants to get something from Qi Qingyun is worthy of his attention.

The only thing that made Qi Yuan and the others find it funny was that there were actually five waves of people who took orders to follow him this time. Among them, there are also two teenage children who have not dried up.

And under Ji Yuan's special "care", the two children were finally able to keep up with him smoothly.

At this moment, they were also whispering behind the alley with a tattered old book.

[In ancient times, there were demons called nightmare beasts, but the devil road is rare, the road is nine demons and one nightmare, but in this world, the beast of nine nightmares is shocked. Through the past and the present, know the future, lock people without being in a dream. It is ninety-nine-eighty-one calamity. Nightmare chain, Nine Heavenly Realms also. Xiao Xing escaped, and now he is locked in the top of the sky, the shallow twilight clouds, among the earth, and on the rock. May the light never be seen. - "The Complete Story of the Remnants of the Ancient Records"]

Ning Shiqian is a little Taoist priest in Maoshan Mountain.

Yes, it's the kind of Maoshan Taoist priest who wears a rustic brown Taoist robe every day. Ning Shiqian also hopes that she can have a cool name such as "Onmyoji", "Demon Slayer", "Heavenly Destiny Master" or something.

However, there is no way, what is flourishing on the Lingyun Continent is the Taoist cultivation system, and Ning Shiqian and them are also from the orthodox Taoist branch family-the Ning family.

In Ning Shiqian's family, almost all the adult men are Maoshan warlocks, and they have never been broken.

On this day, Ning Shiqian had just returned to the clan from the lunar vacation, and met a living person with a letter from a distance, standing at the door of the clan looking around, hesitating and not daring to go in.

It turned out to be a distress letter from a barren mountain village far away. It was said that the village was haunted, and most of the villagers were wounded and killed, and a few days ago, they even swallowed a team of investigation teams in the city, leaving not even a single bone.

The clansmen left behind in the city were anxious and reported the matter to the clan, and for a while, all major organizations were sending people there. As a result, not only this village, but also the forests in the mountains behind it are even more divine, and it swallows as many people come.

Seeing that the situation was not alleviated, the villagers became more and more urgent, and they still asked the elders in the village to come forward and use the local method - please Ling.

And Ning Shiqian, as the eldest daughter of the main cadre in the village, was naturally targeted to catch ghosts and subdue demons, which is called experience and experience......

Speaking of which, I will explain to you that Maoshan Taoism is the most mysterious Taoism in the folklore prevailing in the Lingyun Continent, and it can exorcise ghosts and subdue demons, which makes people feel awe-inspiring.

However, this family culture, which has prevailed for centuries, has been passed down to Ning Shiqian's generation, and its authenticity has been lost.

To this day, the so-called Maoshan method that occasionally appears is mostly folk witchcraft attached to foreign ways.

People say that most of their Maoshan Taoist priests are famous for catching ghosts and subduing demons, but they don't know that the essence of the teachings of the Maoshan Sect has nothing to do with these.

The reason for such a reputation is that the disciples of later generations deceived the villagers in order to deceive them to eat and drink, and the second is the result of the ignorant believers' exaggerated statements and spread false rumors.

And...... Ning Shiqian sighed helplessly - she was a woman.

The Maoshan technique of the Ning clan is generally passed on to men but not to women, but when it was transmitted to Ning Shiqian's area, it changed greatly.

When Ning Shiqian's mother gave birth to Ning Shiqian, she had a difficult birth and hemorrhage, and she almost couldn't even save her life. The father, who has always regarded Ning Shiqian's mother as the meat of his heart, is anxious, and he can't wait to kill Ning Shiqian, the troublemaker, with one palm.

It's also a loss of this matter, and the rule of passing on the family's Taoism to children and not daughters has been completely broken. Ning Shiqian is their only daughter, so she naturally took over the inheritance of this Taoist technique.

However, I don't know if the matter of preaching to women has touched God's will, Ning Shiqian was born without any spiritual power. But fortunately, exorcism and demon subjugation are not the most important parts of Taoism, the important thing is to cure diseases and save people.

Therefore, in order to learn to understand Chinese herbal medicine, when I was very young, I did a series of things by myself, from recognizing medicine to preparing medicine. So far, it can be regarded as a small achievement. But......

If you are persecuting Ning Shiqian, this time it's a ghost hunt! Are you going to let Ning Shiqian use a pound of medicine to stone the ghost to death? Or do you want Ning Shiqian to use medicine and herbs to exchange ghosts for villagers?! Isn't this the intention to let Ning Shiqian go to death!

But...... Fortunately, there is also Ning Wenxian, so the following situations will happen along the way: "Wow! Ning Wenxian helps!"

Ning Shiqian was grabbed by a group of little ghosts, she couldn't run no matter how she pulled it, looking at the weird little ghosts smiling in front of her and behind her, she yelled anxiously, and didn't dare to move too much to provoke these little ghosts to make them take a closer step, so she could only look at Ning Wenxian who was besieged in the distance.

Ning Wenxian, a member of the Ning clan, is the first son of the Quanzhen sect of the Taoist branch.

Because Ning Shiqian and the two have been close since childhood, the clansmen let Ning Shiqian go on a mission together. However, at this time, it was Ning Wenxian who was unlucky, that is, to subdue demons and catch ghosts, and to protect Yu Ning Shiqian.

Of course, these are more than enough for the young and old Ning Wenxian.
