Outside the city.

Yinyi River.

At this time, the riverside has been blocked by the government officials, preventing the people who rushed to see the excitement after hearing the news, and crowded and pushed down the river.

If you look down from a high place, you can see that the Yinyi River is broken this time, which stretches for dozens of miles, winding like a heavenly moat carved out by a ghostly axe, opening up the world between the mountains and mountains, majestic and vigorous.

The scene was feared, and there should be an owner underground.

The section of Fucheng close to Fucheng is only a small section of the Yinyi River.

It was still early in the morning, and the dew of last night had not completely dissipated, but at this time, the riverside was already densely surrounded by people watching the excitement.

With the news that the Yinyi River was cut off overnight, it spread more and more widely, and the number of people who rushed to hear the news continued to increase.

"Everyone, don't go any further. ”

"Whoever dares to step across this line on the ground in a crowded manner will all correct the Fa on the spot and will be held accountable for twenty years. ”

The officials kept persuading and blocking to maintain order along the riverside.

When it was noon, something happened suddenly.

Suddenly, the ground trembled, as if thousands of troops were marching and fighting.

Not long after, a soldier dressed in armor and holding a spear, the armor collided sonorously in the sun, and the cold light was shining, under the leadership of the black-armored cavalry guards who led more than a dozen horsemen, and the neat small marching army left the barracks.

They marched murderously and slaughtered into the distance.

There are hundreds of people in this army, and behind the army, there are thousands of village warriors who came out of the "brave battalion", these village warriors can only be regarded as local township soldiers, and the discipline is lax and loose, and there are no soldiers who are so well-trained and murderous.

But even so, there are more than a thousand people, and the heads are dense, and the momentum can also bluff people.

In the face of this army and the thousands of people formed by the villagers, the people along the way hurriedly avoided it, lest they collide with those military masters and be imprisoned.

These military masters are not the same as those servants.

There is no quality in the servants.

The military master is in the product.

Charging into the army is no different from killing the head.

And those officials and headhunters who tried their best to maintain the order of the people by the river, looked at these well-trained soldiers who came out of the barracks, and they were all envious.

I couldn't take my eyes off it for a long time.

Especially looking at the cavalry guards who took the lead in the dozen or so horses, they were even more along the line, and the blood in the whole body seemed to be boiling.

State capitals are not the same as local county seats.

The state capital has civilian officials and military attachés, and the state capital has military tents, which are stationed by the central government, and the military attachés are called the head of the capital.

In Kangding, there are two kinds of weaving.

One is the weaving of the local government, and the other is the weaving of the imperial court that is paid by the imperial court.

Like the government officials, head catchers, masters, etc., they eat from the local finances, and they are supported by the local government at the expense of the local government, and it is difficult to have a successful life in their lives. So even if he looks very majestic on weekdays, his real status is not high, and he can't enter the court to weave and enter the product.

After working until death for a lifetime, it is still just a place to weave.

And the identities and status of these military masters who are high up on weekdays in the barracks are different.

Eat is the military salary allocated by the central court of the imperial court, eat and drink well, pay well, take the official weaving of the imperial court, if you take the military merits, there is also the hope of being promoted to become a military attaché.

The people of Fucheng, who were originally surrounded on the bank of the river, watched this team of thousands of people composed of regular soldiers and village warriors go away, and this time it really exploded.

They all inquired one after another, what was going on, and even the military masters in the barracks looked murderous and wanted to fight?

Actually, the military master and the townsmen were dispatched together?

Wuzhou Mansion is located in the hinterland of Kangding State, not a border pass like the grassland and Mobei, it should be impossible to fight, is it not to suppress bandits?

I haven't heard of any trouble lately.

Even if there is trouble with bandits, the head of Fucheng likes to train soldiers the most on weekdays, and he has suppressed bandits, but it is estimated that he has not been around for a few days before he is surrounded and suppressed by the head of the capital, and he has no chance to grow stronger.

"You don't know this, this time it's not about bandits, it's about the Yinyi River breaking off this time, not only exposing the riverbed, but also exposing the thousand-hole waterway that has been flooded by the river. ”

"My uncle opened a tavern, and when a few errand masters were drinking today, they confided some rumors......"

The scholar first whetted people's appetites, enjoying the pleasure of being noticed, and after everyone urged him again and again, he continued to talk like a river.

"Those guys all know that there are mountains on both sides of the Yinyi River, and they are flooded by the turbulent river all year round, and no one knows what lies under the river. ”

"But from ancient times to the present, this Yinyi River has always been indispensable for all kinds of mysteries and ancient sacrificial legends, such as the hundred-year-old fish king crashing into a shipwreck, and the hundred-year-old turtle spirit capsizing a boatload of people and eating it... Another example is the annual flooding, the people on both sides of the river sacrifice to the river god and the river uncle, throw the twenty-eight girls into the river to marry the river god, and ask not to flood in the coming year. ”

"Although the Yinyi River has also been broken several times, but in the past several times it has been a small-scale interruption, and no great miracles have happened, but this time the broken flow is so large that it is rare and unheard of, because this time the broken flow actually exposed a thousand holes of waterways at the foot of the mountain, and those waterways are connected to each other, extending in all directions, submerged under water all year round, and no one knows. And strange things happened in these thousand-hole waterways......"

Ordinary people don't know about the corpse of the immortal, this is a small area of secret news, so these people have never heard of the early Yinyi River when the flow was broken, the corpse was dug up.

This is precisely because when Jin An said the corpse, why Uncle Lin, the owner of the coffin shop, was surprised.

The scholar continued to say: "The first person to discover the broken flow of the Yinyi River should be a small village born by the river at the source of the broken river. ”

"You think, for the villagers on the river bank who are accustomed to hearing the sound of the river waves, they will suddenly not hear the sound of the river rushing, and they will definitely get up to check it as soon as possible. ”

It is precisely because of this that the villagers on the banks of the river discovered the thousand-hole waterway exposed under the broken riverbed. ”

But the villagers were so timid that they didn't dare to go down until dawn to check on the situation, and they lost their hands not long after they entered the waterways. Those waterways are connected to each other, and on the outside it looks like a large and small water hole, but there is a hole in the inside, interlocking with each other, extending in all directions, forming an underwater cave that is more huge than looking at it outside, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the cave is more than 10,000. ”

In order to find the two people who had gone missing, the villagers began to continue to descend into these underwater caves with the help of long ropes, but they could not reach the end no matter how they went. There are so many water holes in the cave that it is like a maze array, and people are confused. ”

Just as the villagers were about to give up, a scream rang out through the cave, and when the villagers found the screaming villager, they saw several floating corpses floating in the unreceded water in the cave. ”

At this time, people scattered from other directions, there were also screams one after another, the deeper they went into the cave, the more and more floating corpses were found, these villagers were so frightened that they hurriedly ran out, and then hurriedly came to Fucheng to report to the official, saying that an underwater corpse cave was found, and the two missing villagers have not been found. ”

......

The troops and townsmen who went out of the barracks and the brave battalion marched all the way, and they wore dusty cloaks all the way.

Finally, in the middle of the night, they finally arrived at the destination of their trip.

This is the corner where a rockslide occurred when Jin An came, and the river was silted up.

And here, there are already many village warriors from several nearby villages, and under the leadership of a few Li Zheng, they have blocked the surrounding land and waterways to prevent people from entering by mistake.

As soon as the soldiers arrived in a hurry, they immediately stepped forward to report the situation respectfully.

It turns out that mudslides have occurred here more than once, and the mountain where the landslide last occurred may have occurred again yesterday a month later, perhaps because there was a hidden risk of loosening the soil and rocks.

This mudslide was even more serious than the last time, and it happened to be the narrowest part of the sharp bend of the Yinyi River, which directly blocked the river.

After reporting the situation, he urgently asked for help to find the two people who had lost in the village.

The leader of this thousand-man team is the cavalry guards of more than a dozen horses, each of whom is powerful and powerful, and they are all masters of the army who are decisive in killing.

Among the dozen or so horsemen, one of the bearded deputy commanders was the main one.

After listening to Li Zheng's report, the deputy commander did not immediately go down to the cave, it was night, and the sight was not good at night, so it was inconvenient to go down to the riverbed, and the sergeants were tired from the rapid march for a day, and now they were exhausted, and they needed to camp and rest for the night.

The lives of two ordinary villagers, in front of the lives of thousands of people, he can still control which is more important.

Although it was cruel to the two ordinary villagers.

But Tzu is not in charge of the army.

The deputy commander and more than a dozen cavalry brothers who got off their horses collided with the steel plate armor on their bodies, and their bodies came to the bank of the river calmly.

It's a pity that the Yinyi River at night is completely shrouded in the shadow of terror, and nothing can be seen.

"Deputy Commander, you said that the river water stopped flowing overnight this time, could it be the same as the previous time when the corpse was born?"

There was a brother who rode the guard, and asked curiously.

The bearded deputy commander, the facial features of his face swayed uncertainly under the night torches, and he couldn't really see the expression on his face.

He stared at the riverbed exposed by the broken flow of the river beneath his feet.

However, in the dark of night, nothing could be seen.

After a moment of silence, the bearded deputy commander spoke, his voice deep and rough: "Do you really believe that a mudslide that blocks the river channel can cause the river to stop flowing overnight?"

"Therefore, for the sake of cherishing the lives of my brothers, I refuse to go down the river at night, but wait until tomorrow morning to go to the meeting after dawn to see what is going on in the so-called Thousand Corpses Cave. ”

"I don't care if it's a Thousand Corpses Cave or a Ten Thousand Corpses Cave, I don't believe that I have brought so many brothers today, and I can't turn it upside down. If so many brothers can't do it, just blow them all up, and save yourself from making trouble later. ”

"What is going on down here, tomorrow will be clear during the day. ”

......

......

Next.

There is a story about the interruption of the Yinyi River, which has been spread all over the city.

After a day of brewing, the matter spread to nearby counties and villages along with the merchants and people who went out of the city.

But the most talked-about thing is about the Thousand Corpses Cave that appeared after the Yinyi River was cut off overnight.

Although the official family has come forward to refute the rumors, saying that there is no such thing, let the people not use false rumors to create panic.

After the river was cut off, there were indeed thousands of caves, but there were no corpses at all, it was just a folk rumor.

It's just an ordinary thousand caves, because they are washed by the river all year round, and the rocks under the river are washed out of the water holes.

The reason for the interruption of the Yinyi River is also very simple, because the mudslide collapsed, causing the river to be cut off.

Although some officials came forward to refute the rumors, the discussion of the Thousand Corpses Cave among the people was still relished, and this matter also reached the ears of Jin'an and the old Taoist.

In the early morning of this day, standing on the roof of the Taoist temple, facing the vigorous breath of Jin'an, who had finished breathing, he used Taoism to "explore the bag and take things", and after stealing a few peaches without doing his job, he went to share the peaches with Uncle Lin on the opposite side of the Taoist temple.

After following Jin An for so long, the old Taoist priest has now also learned monkey spirits, and now as long as Jin An pouts his ass, he knows what Jin An is going to fart.

The old Taoist priest who was originally holding a dustpan and a broom and sweeping the floor in the yard immediately followed Jin An to beg for peaches to eat, and in the end, the old Taoist priest, sharpening swords, and goats naturally got peaches.

When Jin An came to the coffin shop opposite today, he found that early this morning, there was business in the coffin shop, which was a noble lady with two maids.

At first glance, it is a person from a large family.

Jin An and the old Taoist priest saw that the coffin shop had business this morning, and they originally planned to wait and come to find the owner of the coffin shop, but who knows, Uncle Lin took the initiative to call Jin An and the old Taoist.

The two walked into the coffin shop with some curiosity.

"Mrs. He, these two are the Taoist masters of the Five Visceral Taoist Temple, if you want to find someone to exorcise evil spirits, you might as well talk to them. ”

"This is the Jin'an Daoist. ”

"This is Daochang Chen. ”

Uncle Lin introduced to the other party that in order to avoid people's eyes, Jin An has been wearing the five-visceral Taoist robe since he came to Fucheng and has not changed it.

Exorcism?

Jin An is really a little curious now.

Since the other party is a noble lady, at first glance, she is a person with status, status, and no shortage of money, how could she go to a small shop like Uncle Lin to find someone to exorcise evil spirits?

This is not that Jin An deliberately looked down on Uncle Lin.

The main thing is that it really doesn't go logical.

Since he is a nobleman and his family is not short of money, he must be looking for the first temple in Fucheng, Bailong Temple, to exorcise evil spirits, and there are several other big temples and big Taoist temples in Fucheng, why did he find a small coffin like Uncle Lin?

Who knows, the woman saw Jin An and the old Taoist, and then looked at the dilapidated coffin shop opposite the door, the cold and small Taoist temple of the believers, she politely greeted the two, and then said to Uncle Lin that she would think about it again, and then left with the pair of young maids behind her.

When the noble lady walked out of this street, Jin An threw a peach to Uncle Lin, and then asked Uncle Lin what was the matter with the noble lady just now?

Uncle Lin didn't care whether the peaches had been washed or not, anyway, he didn't get sick after eating them, and after taking a bite of the tender and juicy peaches, he talked about the reason for the incident.

"That lady is the eldest lady from Hofu. ”

"Master He of He Mansion is one of the three major medicinal material merchants in Fucheng, and these three major medicinal material merchants can be regarded as controlling most of the purchase channels of medicinal materials in Fucheng. ”

"But recently, there has been an unfortunate incident in this He Mansion, because this kind of unfortunate thing in the family should not be publicized too much, so she can't find those big temples and big Taoist temples, those places are full of incense, and more or less will intersect with the heads and faces of the city. So she heard about it and came to me and wanted me to introduce her to some exorcists who had real skills and true deeds. ”

"Maybe it's because in recent days, this Mrs. He has been in a hurry to go to the doctor, and she has found a lot of charlatans, so she is a little vigilant and needs to go back and think about it for a while. ”

Hearing this, Jin An asked curiously: "What happened to the family?"

"Need to hide it like this, for fear of being known by outsiders?"

Uncle Lin shook his head this time and said: "Mrs. He didn't tell the truth, she was very vigilant in her heart, and only said that she would tell her privately when she confirmed the candidate." ”

This was just a small episode, but Jin An didn't waste too much energy on this matter.

Instead, Jin An asked about another thing: "Why did Uncle Lin recommend us to Mrs. He so firmly?"

Uncle Lin continued to eat peaches and said, "Daoist Chen and Daoist Jin'an are both people with real skills. ”

Uncle Lin's words were a bit ambiguous.

On the contrary, the old Taoist priest on the side listened to the eyebrows dancing, and his face couldn't stop laughing.

After eating peaches and chatting for a while, Jin An's life has returned to the same rules as before, since the "Blood Knife Sutra", "Eight Extremes Xingyi Fist", and "Black Mountain Gong" have been practiced to perfection, Jin An has been consolidating his cultivation in the past few days.

There is no rush to seal the martial arts cheats.

It took him a month to complete the twenty or thirty years of entry speed of others, and he was worried that his foundation was unstable, so he spent a lot of time polishing and precipitating what he had learned in the past few days.

There is no conflict between accumulation and cultivation.

And on the night of this day, the Yinyi River, which had been cut off overnight, miraculously regained the water level at night.

However.

This peaceful life of Jin An was broken by miserable cries after the third day.

On the morning of this day, Jin An, who was originally practicing in the private backyard of the Taoist temple, heard the crying for a long time and did not stop, so he collected his work and prepared to make his debut to watch and see which family was crying.

As soon as he walked to the front yard of the Taoist temple, he met the old Taoist priest who had returned from outside.

"Old Dao, what's the matter with the crying outside?"

The old Taoist priest said regretfully: "It's the old man Ma on this street, the son of his family is a townsman, and the son of his family is dead, and he died in a thousand caves, and he didn't even see a corpse." I heard that many people died, more than 1,000 people who set out from the barracks and Yong Camp a few days ago, half of them died, and only half of them returned. ”

The old man Ma in the mouth of the old Taoist priest, Jin An knows this person.

A month ago, when Jin An first arrived at the Five Organs Taoist Temple, there was this old man in the house of the old people who were sitting at the door basking in the sun.

The human body is tough and the eyes are clear, but I didn't expect that it had only been more than a month, and the white-haired person would send the black-haired person.

"What's going on? Could it be that the river was restored the night before, and those people were drowned alive and didn't escape?"

/

PS: There is only one shift today. The 233 red envelopes that did not reach the goal yesterday have been distributed in the V group. In fact, I know that it is difficult to achieve the goal of 10,000 more per day, why do I still promise to send 233 red envelopes if I don't finish it?

That's because I want to find a reason to have the opportunity to give back to the big guys for my unwavering love for me, which is my good intentions as a little fan of the big guys.
