() In the lobby where the original Magu Mountain is located in Luoshui City, although Magu and Ma Youde are the guests of this place, but now that the three gates have come, there are two disciples of the defeated small faction, and this always deserted place has begun to become lively. At this moment, Magu was sitting in the middle of the main seat, Ma Youde stood aside to assist, but there were four guest seats on both sides, except for one for each of the three doors, one was also left for Fang Zhong. According to Hou Xin's meaning, there are more and more people in this Luoshui City, and someone must take care of it, so there is a first come, first come, and no later people can be allowed to tell the first to do things. In the future, the only ones who can talk here should be a few of us. Zheng Yuanhong and Jiang Chengzi raised their hands and feet in favor; Most of Magu's ideas were done by Ma Youde, and he was happy to do so; Fang Zhongben was humble, but he was forcibly pulled by a few of them, saying that no matter what, he wanted to arrange a position for Kunlun, and there were no Kunlun disciples here, and there were only generations that made Fang Zhongmian embarrassed. As for the later disciples of Zhangxian Guan and Baofushan, they took refuge in others, and they only listened attentively, so how could they dare to have any objections.

Except for Ma Youde standing beside Magu, the other five people were all seated safely, and when it came to things outside the city, Jiang Chengzi said: "These people from the Ghost Hall can intercept the fellow disciples who have fled here, they must have already made arrangements, maybe the next target to deal with is here." Hou Xin said: "I have more than 300 disciples in the three sects combined, and there are about 100 of them who have fled to this place from Zhangxian Guan and Baofu Mountain, even if you count all that can be used, it is only five hundred. Zheng Yuanhong said: "I don't know how many people are here in the Ghost Hall?" Hou Xin said: "No matter how many people there are, just keep this place well, if you can't even defend this place, you can only die faster if you run out." The Magu said in a trembling heart: "Otherwise, we will all disperse, go back to the mountain, and it will be fine if we don't go against them." Ma Youde said: "If we let others go, others may not be able to let us go, and it is useless to blindly tolerate them." Zheng Yuanhong said: "Ma Daoyou is right, let you not let your life come, only beating can make people look down on you." I just don't know how to play, Jiang Guan is scheming, but what are your ideas? Jiang Chengzi shook his head and said, "We just fought with him today, we don't know anything about it, and we have any good ideas to think of." While everyone was frowning and pondering, Fang Zhong spoke: "Don't worry, you don't have to worry, I have made an appointment with someone, and I will go out to meet this person at the third watch, and then it will be clear what the plans of those people in the Ghost Hall are." Everyone was stunned, this Fang Zhong obviously only returned today, how could he have an agreement with someone. Zheng Yuanhong rolled his eyes and said, "Brother Fang, aren't you talking nonsense?" This Zheng Yuanhong, Hou Xin, and Jiang Chengzi were very polite when they first met Fang Zhong, and they talked a lot, calling him Fang Daoyou, and later after the matter of Wuliang Mountain, they became acquainted with him, and they called him by his name, and now he even said the word brother, which is also getting along more, and there are not so many taboos. Fang Zhong said with a smile: "Master Zheng, don't worry, when you protect this city, I only need to go out to explore, and I will know the truth and falsehood." ”[]

After the discussion was completed, everyone was about to disperse, and Jiang Chengzi frowned again and said: "There is another thing that is a little strange, there is a little Taoist priest under my door who died inexplicably in a dry well in the city, stripped of his clothes, and his shape is very unbearable. I searched for a long time, but I didn't know who killed me. Zheng Yuanhong said: "It must be the people from the ghost hall who sneaked in, arrested him for interrogation, and killed him and threw him in the dry well." Hou Xin said: "Master Zheng reminds that foreign enemies are around, we must raise the jǐng ring, strengthen the guards, and tell the disciples to be careful, and all kinds of prohibitions and traps are best laid out." Zheng Yuanhong said: "Those disciples of Zhangxian Guan and Hufu Mountain happened to be idle, so they sent them to do it, if they want to survive, how can they do it without some strength." ”

Fang Zhong returned to his ancestral house, and as soon as he entered the door, he felt that something was wrong, the cobwebs and dust in the house were long gone, and they were clean everywhere, even the ground was clean. Fang Zhong entered the patio, saw the light in the room next to him, walked up and knocked on the door, the door opened, Xiaolan appeared in front of him with a face full of surprise. Xiaolan's head was stuck with the pearl hairpin made by the power of the three gates, pearlescent and radiant, and said happily: "Brother Zhong, you are finally back." Fang Zhong smiled and nodded, "You have been cleaning this house all along?" Xiaolan said: "Yes, after you and the Lord of Zhengmen left, the Lord of Hou Island and the Lord of Jiangguan did not assign things to me to do, so I cleaned up here, and I lived here in the future, and I cleaned up every day, do you say okay?" Fang Zhong said: "Naturally, Sister Lan is so virtuous, whoever marries you in the future will be very happy." Xiaolan pouted and said, "It's good for me to follow Brother Zhong, Xiaolan won't marry." Fang Zhong said: "If the woman is not staying, how can there be a reason not to marry." You and I are all born in one place, like brother and sister, when you want to get married, the brother must give you a big dowry. Fang Zhong remembered the events of the night, returned to his house to meditate and practice qi, and waited for the appointment of the third watch. Xiaolan leaned against the door alone, although she was smiling, there was a hint of disappointment in her eyes.

The stars hung high, Fang Zhong brought two swords and gourds, left the thousand-year-old jīng gold iron that He Ying gave him in the house, and went out of the city alone to perform the escape technique. When Fang Zhong arrived at the place where he was fighting, he saw no one and saw a forest not far away, so he walked towards the forest. As soon as he reached the edge, the white shadow in the forest flickered, and a person walked out with a smile and a folding fan, and said: "Brother Fang is really a believer, and he has been waiting for a long time. What appeared in front of Fang Zhong's eyes was the white-haired ghost Sikong Forgiveness. Fang Zhong still had some scruples about this person, and when he saw that no one came out left and right, he said, "Why is Brother Sikong still with those demons, don't you want to change your evil ways and return to the right?" Sikong Liang smiled: "Which is right and which is evil does not necessarily depend on which sect and sect you are in." Fang Zhong said: "This is reasonable, so what do you want when Brother Sikong asks me to come?" Sikong forgave and said: "Brother Fang, you also know that I am not a wicked person, but I was forced by the situation and had to do something hurtful to heaven and reason." Later, when the mother-in-law was enlightened, and received your great kindness, she decided to change her mind and face, and only wanted to stay with my wife for a long time, and did not do anything else. Fang Zhong said: "Then you should quit the Ghost Hall and find a no-man's land to enjoy peace." Sikong Liang shook his head and smiled: "You are wrong, Brother Fang, you must accumulate some virtue in your life, if I retire here, my wife will still be dissipated after a hundred years, and the sins cannot be alleviated even a little." But if you want to continue to cultivate, but you don't have any follow-up skills, there are very few people in the world who really know the way of ghosts. That mother-in-law is naturally very remarkable, Brother Fang is barely one, and the master of the hall is even more jīng Zhanzhi. If I take refuge in the master of the hall, I will inevitably create many sins, and I will only fall deeper and deeper, and I may not necessarily enter the eyes of others to teach my Taoism. So after thinking about it, there is only one way to take refuge in Brother Fang. Fang Zhong smiled in surprise and said, "If you want to take refuge in me, you are nobody, and it is difficult to protect yourself, but I am afraid that you will disappoint Brother Sikong." Sikong forgave him: "Instead of being willing to fall, it is better to do something hopeful as soon as possible." Although Brother Fang's name is not obvious now, it will be the same in the future. The so-called investment should be as soon as possible, and when your vision is high, where will you look up to me. I sincerely want to get back on the right path, as long as Brother Fang says a word, I will do things for you after I forgive you. Fang Zhong said: "Brother Sikong is talking in the vernacular, I can't believe you just by a thought." Fortunately, if you are willing to return to the right path, I will naturally not stop you from counting on it. Sikong forged joy and said: "As it should be, I asked you to come today, just because I want to do a great good deed." Fang Zhongqi said: "What kind of good deed?" Sikong Liang smiled and said: "The people who fought with you today are the four ghosts of the Servant Ghost Hall and the Mountains, these four people have done all kinds of evil, and the people who died in their hands have thousands of children and eight hundred, and others kill one person, either to take wealth and harm the people or to pick jīng blood, but these four people are not, their fun is to kill people for fun, but anyone who kills them has been detained by him to be a servant ghost, so there are countless ghost mounds hanging on his body this week. Although the cultivation of these individual ghosts is not high, because they have killed countless people, it is not to be underestimated that they are released at the same time, and these four people have no intention of cultivating the ghost method, they are purely using it to improve their cultivation, and they still have some skills in their hands and feet. Fang Zhong said: "How did the four ghosts of Kunshan come here?" How did Brother Sikong get mixed up with these people, you don't know what to say, I can't believe you. ”

Sikong forgave and said: "I was just ordered to send here to inform the four ghosts of Kuoshan to take Luoshui City, but I didn't expect that there were already many people from the Daomen stationed here, and I didn't expect that Brother Fang was also here." The four ghosts of Kushan Mountain were killed into xìng, and they were very ferocious, in order to kill all this place, they had been distributed in all directions, and Luoshui City was quietly surrounded, and they would attack on a large scale if they did not rì. The reason why I agreed to block the fight last time was because of the deployment of manpower, just because the original news that was revealed that there were few people stationed in Luoshui City, and when I saw that there were many people, I was afraid that one or two people would be missed in the killing, so I delayed for a moment and redeployed manpower. If the expectation is good, the four ghosts of Kunshan have already been exhausted, and you stay in the city, once the siege is closed, you will definitely be innocent. Fang Zhong was shocked: "In this way, I should have made a move earlier, killed a bloody way out, and left Luoshui City." Sikong Liang chuckled: "That's not necessary, I have a plan, I can defeat these four ghosts one by one." I don't know how many people there are in Brother Fang, as long as they are not too poor, there are so many four or five hundred disciples, and they are seventy or eighty percent sure. Fang Zhong muttered: "Manpower is not a problem, as you said, the four ghosts of that mountain are pouring in, I'm afraid it's not enough." Sikong forgave the folding fan and said with a smile: "It is indeed not enough to gather in one place, and it is enough to be in all directions." As long as I transfer all the people who come and go to communicate, and Brother Fang leads people to kill them one by one, this battle will be won, and with this victory here, Brother Fang can also show his face in front of people, and the hero is young, wouldn't it be gratifying. ”
