Yangdu, Langya County, Shandong. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The vast plains are sparsely populated. The hills that rise up on the horizon stand out on this plain. It was noon, and it was the time to catch the market in the county of Yangdu, and the sun was scorching the crowd of people coming and going.

"Kill the head, kill the head!"

In the distance, the officials of the government sounded the gong to open the way and marched towards the entrance of the vegetable market, and the crowds in the market flocked to the entrance of the vegetable market. The prisoner locked in the prison car, his face covered by his long filthy hair, no one could see what he looked like. The people threw garbage at him, and the stones thrown by several children hit him in the face, and his head shook and laughed nonchalantly, causing a sensation in the crowd and attracting more garbage. No one knew what crime he had committed, and it wasn't a good thing to kill his head anyway, and every time he killed his head was the busiest time in the county, because everyone could take advantage of the chaos at that time.

The officer who opened the way whipped his horsewhip and suddenly fell silent. He was wearing cowhide armor and was also a big official in the county. He had a deterrent effect, he was very proud, he made a move, the killing team stopped, the county miscellaneous soldiers opened the prisoner cart, pulled the prisoner off the carriage, dragged him to the execution table, kicked his feet in the crook of the prisoner's feet, and the prisoner fell to the ground without snorting.

The officer began to read out the prisoner's indictment, and when he had finished reading, he knelt down under the camphor tree where the miscellaneous soldiers had laid out the mats, waited until the hour was up, and then went back to touch the little wife of the family. Thinking about the little wife who just married the door last night, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and he couldn't get enough of it after tossing all night, just thinking about her breasts and her buttocks, the sky suddenly got dark. Then the wind and sand hit, somehow. He panicked in his heart, stood up, looked at the commotion of the crowd, and immediately decided: "The hour is almost up, let's kill it first!" The adjutant next to him opened his mouth and said in a long voice: "Kill——! The rumbling drum behind him sounded, and the executioner raised his bright broadsword, "brushed" and cut down, but he stumbled, but the prisoner was still kneeling there, and the officer saw the big knife cut the prisoner's neck, and the knife passed, but the head was not broken, and he just wanted to open his mouth to speak, when a gust of wind and sand poured into his mouth and nose, and for a moment he had difficulty breathing, and he only saw two surprised executioners who kept chopping, but the prisoner was still kneeling properly.

The prisoners gradually dispersed like air, and the people in the bazaar could not open their eyes, and the executioners finally lost their knives and wiped their hands against the eyes stuck to the sand.

A voice sounded in mid-air: "The Han family is exhausted, and the demons are in trouble; Thousands of years of Taiping Road, turning rainbows through the green sky! ”

Yellow sand erupted from the officer's seven orifices, and his body gradually swelled, and he roared miserably, but the roar was quickly replaced by the sound of his body exploding. The other two executioners also exploded one after another.

The sand that was sprayed out gathered together and finally turned into a human form, a prisoner who had just knelt on the ground. He laughed, jumped off the execution table, and walked away.

No one dared to stop him on the road, and when they saw him, they called a monster. The corners of his cold mouth also smiled slightly.

"Who the hell are you? Hold it! A voice behind him stopped him.

He didn't look back, his hand was raised back, and he rolled the man in front of him, the man's expression was resolute, and his eyes showed some fear, but he still said righteously and solemnly: "Who are you!" Dare to torture and kill the officials of the imperial court! He thought about it, but couldn't say any more.

The corners of the prisoner's mouth sizzled, and his voice was slightly hoarse, and he said, "What are you doing, don't you want to live?" ”

Only then did the prisoner see that the young man in front of him was about twenty years old, with a beautiful face and his hair tied up with a scarf on his head. The young man said: "I am also an official of the imperial court, what kind of demon are you, so lawless, anyway, it falls into your hands, how you want to torture me is up to you." …… Can you put me down first? The prisoner smiled and said, "You're not afraid of death?" I'm not going to kill you! ”

He put down the young man and said, "Let's go, be your official well, hehe, you don't have a few years to be an official!" ”

The young man suddenly thought of something and said, "Who are you from Yu Ji?" ”

When the prisoner heard this, he suddenly turned around, and the wind was blowing from afar, and he lifted the young man into the air with both hands, threw him into the bamboo forest, caught up with him, grabbed him by the neck, and asked, "Who are you?" Say! ”

The young man gestured, his face gradually becoming like a pig's liver. The prisoner came to his senses, let go of his hand and said, "Boy, who are you?" ”

The young man straightened his clothes and said, "Sage Yun, salute first and then soldier, if you want to ask me who I am, you dare to beat me like this!" The prisoner snorted in his mouth, plucked a bamboo as easily as a green onion, sharpened the end of the bamboo with his hand, pointed at the young man, and said, "It seems that I can skewer you up and solve my dinner." The young man didn't expect that the other party was not a person with well-developed limbs and a simple mind, so he tied his hair back up and said, "My surname is Zhuge and my single name is a Qi." ”

The prisoner smiled and said, "It turns out that you are the son of a turtle, say, how do you know Yu Ji?" ”

Zhuge Jue found the prisoner's anxious look, and had already guessed nine times out of ten, and said: "Master Yu Ji has the "Taiping Qingling Book", which is so famous, who doesn't know? And he also came to my house and played tricks on me, you are his apprentice, right? ”

The prisoner's expression tensed, and he mentioned Zhuge Jue and said, "Where is the book?" ”

Zhuge Jue said strangely: "Book, what book?" ”

"Don't be stupid, it's the book you said!"

"Oh, you mean "Taiping Qingling Book", you just say no, why be so vague."

"No more nonsense!"

"First, how do you know where I am, second, even if I do, your attitude towards me is that no one will tell you, and third, you haven't told me who you are, how can I tell such a big secret to an outsider?"

The prisoner immediately put down Zhuge Jue, he didn't think about the loopholes in Zhuge Jue's words, he only thought about the book in his heart, he couldn't help but say, "Can you say it?" Say it! Zhuge Jue pulled off his shoes and poured out the mud and sand in his shoes, he snorted and said, "Forget it, it seems that you don't know how to speak well since you came out of your mother's womb, so I'll tell you...... But first you say who you are. ”

"My name is Gong Chong, and I am Yu Ji's disciple." Zhuge Jue didn't expect the prisoner to say it so simply.

Zhuge Jue said angrily: "Of course, this book is in the hands of his old man!" ”

Gong Chong shook it, and then lifted Zhuge Jue up and said, "You dare to play me!" He wrapped the chains in his hands around Zhuge Jue's neck, and was about to strangle him.

Zhuge Jue secretly screamed in his heart, and said, "But I know where he is." ”

Gong Chong thought for a while, loosened the shackles, and said, "Where?" Not to mention that I will tear you into eight pieces. ”

Zhuge said: "Whether it's tearing me into eight pieces or nine pieces, in addition to showing your strength, what good will it do you?" Besides, if you tear me into eight hundred pieces, you have nothing to show off, and if you tear me up, you will lose even more. ”

Gong Chong was right to think about it, and said, "It's because I'm too reckless, so what can you do for me to tell me?" ”

Zhuge Jue's eyes rolled, thinking that he was just going to Taishan County to take up his post, and it would be good to have one more person who could protect him on the way, he said: "I'll take you to your master's place, you just follow me, don't ask me any questions!" If you think I'm lying to you, you don't believe what I'm saying, and you don't have any room for bargaining. ”

Gong Chong was speechless all of a sudden, since the master left, he had been looking for that book, for his dream, he wanted to swallow it no matter how shameful he was, not to mention that he was just about to rush to Luoyang, just by the way, there was nothing to be afraid of following this kid, in case he lied to people, it would not be too late to kill him again.

He still blushed and said, "If you dare to lie to me, I will tear you up immediately." ”

Zhuge Jue smiled slightly, threw up his sleeves, and walked out of the bamboo forest. Gong Chong had no choice, so he followed behind and caught up.

Tsuneyama is really determined.

The village chief led Zhang Jiao and the three to the abandoned mountain temple in the village, and the three took off their cloaks and sat down on their knees. The village chief offered fragrant tea, Zhang Bao said: "The three of us passed by the Changshan area, and found that there was a sense of anger here, originally wanted to go to Luoyang, the eldest brother said to come here to see, and when we walked halfway, we found this woman who had her own caesarean section." ”

The village chief took a step back and said: "Don't hide it from the great sage and good teacher, there was a monster in Zhending Village ten years ago, the old people called it Tiger Jiao, this monster came to harass the village from time to time, and many people in the village have died in order to hunt and kill it. The person you saw was the wife of Zhao Ling, the number one warrior in our village, and it was strange to say that she had been pregnant for a year, and the child in her womb was not born. ”

Zhang Jiao took a sip of tea and said, "The tiger Jiao is a strange beast, it is a trivial matter to hunt and kill it, and the biggest purpose of my trip is to ask the village chief about a person." ”

When the village chief heard that the great sage and good teacher had a request for him, he hurriedly said: "What does the master command, I don't know who the master is looking for?" ”

Zhang Jiao closed his eyes, thoughtfully, and then said slowly: "Fu Lu Fang Shi Fei Changfang, I'm looking for him." ”

In less than half a day, Zhuge Jue left Yangdu with Gong Chong, seeing that the sun was about to set, Gong Chong said: "Boy, find a place to rest." ”

Zhuge Jue said unhurriedly: "Look at the distance, although the sun on the horizon is about to fall, how many clouds have been dyed red, the closer it is, the more beautiful it is, slowly, the red clouds will turn purple red, turn blue, and finally turn black, and after a few hours, the sun will rise from that side again, and a new day will come back." ”

Gong Chong could hear it, and suddenly came back to his senses and said, "Did you kid hear my words?" Gotta find a place to rest. ”

Zhuge Jue laughed and said: "What are you afraid of, if you have no place to live, you can sit on the ground and lie down." ”

Gong Chong caught up and asked, "You are going to be an official, why are you so shabby, and there is no one to accompany you?" ”

Zhuge Jue sat down suddenly, pulled a straw from the ground and chewed it in his mouth, and said, "The official is willing, how about it?" You don't know how annoying it is to be an official, there are endless batches of official documents every day, and there are people circling around you every day. ”

Gong Chong listened to it and said: "Boy, I like this, just become a monk and become a Taoist priest, or follow me to find the "Taiping Qingling Book", how about we share the wealth after we get it?" ”

Zhuge Jue knew that Gong Chong was turning around and pulling out the whereabouts of the "Taiping Qingling Book" from its mouth, if he told him, maybe his little life would be over immediately, why not plan it. "Is "Taiping Qinglingshu" really so good? Why can you get rich if you have it? ”

Gong Chong saw that he was interested, and also sat down and said: ""Taiping Qingling Book" is the evolution of "Tianguan Calendar Baoyuan Taiping Sutra", which is researched by the old man Yu Ji himself, according to legend, "Tianguan Calendar Baoyuan Taiping Sutra" is written by Gan Zhong, a native of Qi State, a total of 12 volumes, and "Taiping Qingling Book" has a total of 170 volumes, I have been a disciple of Yu Ji for so many years, and I have never looked at it, the old man never mentioned this book to me, I heard that this book is called the Tao of the world, and now the Han family has a declining image, and the eunuch's relatives are the troubles of the society, As long as I get this book, I will dedicate it to the current emperor, and he will not give me a big official to do? ”

Zhuge Jue muttered in his heart, just because you are too stupid, your master did not teach you the book, you are good, as a Taoist priest, you still want to be a big official, and the abacus is not bad. He asked, "Can you be a bigger official than the Taishan County Guard?" Gong Chong said: "Of course, maybe you can also be the prime minister." ”

Zhuge Jue thought to himself that this person was really naïve, he might have cultivated in the mountains since he was a child and had never seen the world. He stood up and patted the dust on his body, and Gu Zi walked forward: "Let's go, there is an inn in front, and we will sleep there tonight." ”

At night, the sky was nothing, pitch black.

Zhuge Jue was woken up by Gong Chong's thunderous snoring, but there was a sudden sound of two sharp cones chiseling the ground next door. "Tuk, Du" twice, Zhuge Jue felt that his hair stood on end, he put his ear on the wall, the voice came from under the stairs next door, and it was "Tuk Tuk", "Tuk Tuk", "Tuk Tuk", Zhuge Jue felt the same rhythm as his heartbeat.

The voice of the sharp cone finally went up the stairs, and a hoarse voice suddenly remembered on the side of the wall: "How is it?" This voice seemed to float from another world, and when I heard it, I felt that my internal organs were turning over the river and the sea, but Zhuge Jue still insisted on listening.

There has been no sound for a long time.

The voice on the other side of the wall sounded again: "Very good, this roll is in hand, there is not much left." …… Boy, when else would you like to hear it? ”

A hand broke through the wall, grabbed Zhuge Jue's neck at once, and pulled him over the wall, Zhuge Jue thought that he was really unlucky today, and his poor neck was scratched several times. Zhuge Jue was pulled next door, his whole body ached, he opened his eyes, and found that the room was pitch black, two green eyes stared at him like ghost fire, a gust of wind blew, followed by the sound of a sharp cone descending the stairs. Zhuge couldn't see anything.

Gong Chong heard a voice coming from the hole in the wall and said, "Let go, this kid is mine!" ”

Green-eyed opened his mouth, and a trace of white gas floated out of his mouth, he said: "It turned out to be Gong Chong, this kid eavesdropped on my secret, of course I will kill him, and then turn into a ghost and obey me." ”

Gong Chong smiled and said, "Just like the one who gave you the book just now?" ”

Zhuge Jue's whole body was suddenly cold, could it be that the sound of the sharp cone just now was a ghost?

Green-eyed said: "I'm not happy to slaughter you like that!" ”

Gong Chong said: "Hand over the book!" ”

Green-eyed smiled: "What book?" How did I not know? Speaking of which, I am also your elder, and you actually talk to me with such an attitude! ”

Gong Chong's front suddenly lit up with a firelight, and his palm was holding an incredible red flame, Zhuge Jue immediately saw the person who grabbed him, wearing Taoist clothes, and under the firelight, he was no different from an ordinary Taoist, but his face was colorless, and his mouth was white. Gong Chong said: "This is my master's book, of course I want to get it back, you instructed the evil ghost to collect the "Taiping Qingling Book", of course I have to ask, "Taiping Qingling Book" will kill ghosts, you use ghosts to find books for you, they don't know what book they are looking for, right?" You want to cause them to never be born, don't you? Fei Changfang! ”

The green-eyed name is Fei Changfang, he immediately put down Zhuge Jue, laughed and said: "Ghosts are used to drive, I exorcise ghosts to do things for me, why not, besides, these wild ghosts have done some bad things before, I am doing the right thing for heaven." ”

Gong Chong stopped talking nonsense with him, watching him put down Zhuge Jue, took a few steps forward, his eyes flashed, and before Zhuge Jue could react, he saw a bean-sized sweat on Fei Changfang's face. Zhuge Jue didn't know what was going on, Gong Chong shouted: "Boy, don't move!" ”

Fei Changfang said hatefully: "I only know now why you are coming and going freely in the dark, why do you make a fire for no reason, it turns out that you have also learned Yu Ji Laodao's shadow stepping technique." ”

Only then did Zhuge Jue find out that Fei Changfang's shadow under the light had been trampled under Gong Chong's feet, Gong Chong looked very difficult, and said: "Boy, go get an oil lamp and light it up, this old way is not easy to deal with!" ”

Zhuge Jue didn't have time to think about it, he couldn't digest a series of things he encountered today, he stumbled and brought the oil lamp, Fei Changfang was no longer in the house, Gong Chongzheng was squatting on the ground, a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, he looked at Zhuge Jue, and said, "Lao Dao extinguished my True Yuan Fire with a breath of yin qi." ”

Zhuge said: "Then let's chase." Aren't you running fast? ”

Gong Chong propped himself up from the ground and said, "No need to chase, he is already hundreds of miles away, and he can shrink the ground." ”

Looking at the endless earth outside the window, Zhuge Jue's mouth opened wide and did not close for a long time.
