Chapter 20 Midu
A hundred years later. Scattered City
The two carriages drove into the smoky path, the low bushes on either side of them rattling from time to time, the driver of the carriage in front of him was drowsy with a leather whip, and in the narrow carriage a young man and a woman snuggled together.
"Brother Zhong, aren't you going to the city? Why does it seem to be getting more and more remote? The woman poked her head out to check, and the smoke everywhere became thicker, and the viscous air was watery, and there was no wind, and the fog gathered together as if it had solidified, and it did not swim for half a minute.
A handsome man, dressed as a scholar, with a pale and handsome face with a sick face, he hugged his little wife beside him tightly, and said softly: "If we don't go the wrong way, we should soon get to Zero Fall City, and when we get to the city, we'll make plans after we finish our work, right?" ”
The woman nodded, and looked behind her, where a thin horse-drawn cart followed unhurriedly, wrapped tightly in linoleum. Suddenly, the horse stopped taking a step forward as if it had been spelled, and the coachman felt a gust of wind blowing, and he shook his spirit, and said in a trembling voice to the carriage, "Less...... Master, have we encountered something unclean? ”
"You go down first and see if the old lady is okay." The sick man coughed twice, and heard the coachman screaming and ran up, "Young master, it's not good, the old lady's coffin has somehow fallen down, young master, young master......"
The man hurriedly jumped out of the car, and his wife followed him with a pale face.
The coachman was so frightened that he fled in the opposite direction, and the two husbands and wives shrank together, and suddenly white silk floated over their heads, one end tightly wrapped around the coffin, and the other end seemed to be pulled by someone, and the coffin suddenly jumped up, and was pulled by the white silk and passed by the two of them.
"Mother!" The man coughed up a mouthful of blood violently, and his wife hurriedly supported him, and said in a panic: "Brother Zhong, what should I do?" Shall we keep up? ”
"Let's go, I'll drive, sit tight!" The man climbed into the carriage, his wife sat beside him, and the two drove the carriage in the direction of the white silk fluttering.
"It's great to finally find a fresh pair of skins."
"It's a pity that it's an old woman, if only it were a handsome man."
Two transparent humanoid objects dragged the coffin and flew quickly, "What do you think of that scholar?" looks really handsome, otherwise, let's talk about him first. ”
The other ghost waved his hand, "Look at his soft and boneless appearance, I'm afraid that before he can press it, he will be scared to death by you......"
The scholar coughed violently, and suddenly he pointed to the flickering lights in front of him and shouted to his wife: "Look, we have arrived at the Zero Fall City, it turns out that it is not a legend, there is really a Zero Fall City, there really is." ”
After speaking, the coffin suddenly fell to the ground, the coffin scattered in all directions, and just as the two imps were snickering and about to drag the body out, the corpse suddenly stood upright, and the two imps gasped.
"Wow, what is this going on! The corpse has changed, there are ghosts, help......! ”
"What are you yelling about, aren't we ghosts, you see, this old woman seems to have really changed her corpse, and she has white hair all over her body!"
The scholar kept trembling with his arms around his wife, his heart was like a mirror, his mother bit him on the night of the corpse, and even killed the people who were guarding the spirit together, and even the mage escaped from the battle. The two of them took the body out while their mother was dormant, and tied it up again and again with ink fountain thread, who knew that something would go wrong in the middle. It's over, the two of them don't have any other magic weapon at all, and they saw that this happened to Zero Fall City.
The corpse's eyes widened, and a faint green light came out of her eyes, and she suddenly turned around, facing the two couples.
"Brother Zhong, my mother doesn't recognize us anymore, what should I do? Are we going to die? ”
As the two spoke, the corpse flew over, and in an instant, a black shadow flashed in front of their eyes.
Just as the two of them hugged each other and closed their eyes tightly, the corpse fell to the ground with a thud, "Don't be afraid, the corpse has been resolved." ”
The scholar slowly opened his eyes, his mother's corpse was lying on the ground shaking incessantly, standing on the side with a tall figure and a demon mask, the ** is a life-saving benefactor, right?
"Thank you, hero." The scholar thanked him, and finally picked up a life.
"Mo Lian, what's wrong?"
The three of them all turned behind them, and a petite woman walked in the dark, with a black suit, black hair tied up, a hosta pinned to her hair, and the demon mask on her face was exactly the same as that worn by Mo Lian. Her voice was very hoarse and deep, sounding more like an old woman, but her body was very young and slender.
"Venerable Envoy, just solved a white zombie." Mo Lian replied respectfully, and then quickly moved to the side of the woman in the strong suit, and he supported her very carefully, as if he was afraid that she would trip over.
The woman gently pushed Mo Lian away and walked straight towards the scholar and his wife.
"Two, there is the Shuitian Cave Mansion in front, I think it is necessary for the two of you to go and rest for a while."
The scholar was secretly surprised that this mysterious woman could guess that he was injured, he endured the discomfort of his body, and whispered to his wife: "Wan'er, let's go to Shuitian Cave Mansion with this mother-in-law first, do you say okay?" ”
Mother-in-law? This stupid boy actually thought she was an old woman, but yes, her age, when his ancestors were too old.
She replied coldly: "It's okay to call me Qingli, Li Gongzi, please." She walked in front to lead the way, Li Yizhong and Qi Wan followed behind, Li Yizhong whispered to his wife: "This mother-in-law is so powerful, she even knows what my name is, it seems that we have really come to the right place." ”
"Yes, Brother Zhong, you are saved."
……
Mo Lian walked in Zuihou, dragging the corpse that was still shaking, the old lady of the Li family grunted in protest, Mo Lian turned her face to her and whispered: "Settle down, or I will let you die now!" ”
Qingli suddenly stopped, looked up at the sky and shouted, "You two, come out!" ”
The two little ghosts hiding in the cedar tree looked at each other and secretly exchanged glances, and at this time they must not make a sound to see what the woman is doing.
"I'll say it again, get out of here!" Qingli took out a small round mirror covered with dust from his arms, and the two little ghosts were immediately frightened, and hurriedly flew down and knelt at Qingli's feet.
"The envoy spares his life, the little one just wants to make a joke......"
"Yes, yes, we want to play tricks on Childe, and we don't want to harm him."
One of the little ghosts with ankle-length hair looked at Li Yizhong, his eyes blinked, and he couldn't wait to get on him now, eat and wipe it clean and then squeeze out his soul, occupy his body, and then occupy his wife. Isn't it a little greedy, this pervert has forgotten whether he was a man or a woman in his life, in short, a good-looking and beautiful body, it wants to take it for himself.
"Don't think I don't know what you want to do, I have a record of when you escaped from the underworld, if you don't go back to report obediently, don't blame me for not being merciful!" Qing Li waved his sleeves, and the two imps were so frightened that they immediately flashed to the side.
"Farewell, let's go back to the underworld immediately, and we will go back to ...... right away."
In a flash, he disappeared, Qingli put his hands behind his back, and began to take steps again unhurriedly, this jiashi was more powerful than the county master in the eyes of Li Yizhong and his wife, and the two of them were afraid to make any more noise.
"Li Gongzi?"
Li Yizhong heard Qingli call him softly, his heart jumped, and he responded in a panic: "Eh, mother-in-law, oh, no, I don't know what ...... is."
"When was Li Gongzi bitten by Ling Tang? Where is the injury? ”
Li Yizhong replied timidly: "It's been five days, and the injury is in the arm, and I feel very weak in the past few days, and I can't hold it anymore." ”
While talking, several people came to a spacious building, Li Yizhong was amazed, and in the blink of an eye, where did this huge mansion come from? I saw a few huge words printed on the horizontal plaque at the gate: Shuitian Cave Mansion. He secretly thought that what it looked like from the book actually existed in the world, the Scattered City was real, and the Shuitian Cave Mansion also existed.
There is a huge lantern hanging at the door, softly glowing with crimson light, the door is open, there is a commotion inside, the lights and shadows are building, some fast-moving shadows and living people are staggered to push cups and change lamps, and for a while I can't figure out whether I am in the world, the earth, and the heavens?
Li Yizhong rubbed his eyes, it's true that people are alive, and it's ghosts that float around, why can people and ghosts be so harmonious?
"Li Gongzi doesn't need to be surprised, Scattered City is located at the junction of yin and yang, the location of the extreme yin of Shuitian Cave Mansion, this is not only an inn for mortals, but also an inn for yin souls, Li Gongzi, don't panic when you see anything later, although be calm."
Qingli couldn't see Li Yizhong's expression, but she sensed fear and doubt in his breath, and after comforting him softly, she strode in.
Someone greeted her warmly: "Cave master, long time no see." ”
Ghosts also came around: "Envoy, what have you been busy with lately?" ”
Qing didn't say a word, and the ghosts automatically moved out of the way, and when they saw the young couple behind her, they all began to point. Li Yizhong caught a glimpse of the dead ghosts beside him, most of them were described as withered, some had broken an arm, some had lost their heads, and some were holding the exposed intestines in one hand and holding the wine glass in the other. Even though he was vaccinated by Qingli in advance, he was still so frightened that he almost went out of his body.
There are four floors in Shuitian Cave Mansion, the first layer is for ghosts, the second layer is for people, the third layer is for capable people and immortals who have Taoism, and the fourth layer is for Qingli and Molian to live.
In a short time, he has reached the fourth floor.
"Li Gongzi, please roll up your sleeves."
Qingli stretched out his hand, Li Yizhong obediently rolled up his sleeves, a large scar appeared on his left arm, the flesh had rotted, exuding a strong fishy smell, Qingli frowned, his fingers touched the rotten scar, "Li Gongzi is really blessed with a great life, the corpse poison has attacked his heart, but Gongzi can still save his life, he is really lucky." ”
She withdrew her hand and took out a small white porcelain vase from her waist, "This is the carpelling powder." Lifting the cap of the bottle, the blue powder sprinkled onto the rotten scars, sizzling blue light smoke, Li Yizhong gritted his teeth, and fine sweat broke out on his forehead.
"It will get better soon, Li Gongzi will rest first, Mo Lian will take care of Lingtang, if there is nothing to do, don't walk around at night." Qingli finished his statement without emotion, turned around and walked out, Li Yizhong bared his teeth, watching the rotten flesh recover little by little, and this woman seemed to be able to guess his thoughts, thinking of this, he was no longer worried, but he was a little afraid, Mo Lian would deal with it, how to deal with it?
"Oh, by the way, I forgot to ask where Li Gongzi came from?"
Li Yizhong sat up abruptly when he heard this, he was very unaccustomed to being attacked suddenly, he was timid by nature, he was afraid of being frightened.
"Mother-in-law, I came from Nanshao County in my late life."
"Okay, understood, don't disturb the rest of the two."
