Chapter 18 Xiaodao Qinglian

Outside the walls of Yizhuang, in the broken straw shed where the old man guarding Yizhuang lived, a mess of straw suddenly moved. It is said that the old man's own straw hut is a bit of a reason, because this tattered fence has a gap in the position of the straw hut!

There was a faint pair of eyes in the straw pile, which just saw the whereabouts of the old Taoist master and apprentice clearly! At this time, Yizhuang was deserted, and as soon as the pile of straw moved, the master and apprentice behind the broken wall were startled!

"Who? Is it Yan Zhitang's spy? The little Taoist priest asked with a white face and a trembling face.

The straw slowly parted, and a person seemed to stand up behind the wall, and the little Taoist priest was startled and hurriedly hid behind the master. The sloppy old man smiled slightly: "This little friend is deeply calculating!" actually went and returned, and hid back, it seems that Yan Zhitang is really unjust to lose to you! However, aren't you afraid that I will report you for a few rewards? ”

Behind the wall is the gray-clothed man in black veil!

A gray shadow flashed, and the gray-clothed man appeared in the courtyard of Yizhuang like a ghost, and did not speak...... With a throw of his right hand, a shadow flew towards the old road! Lao Dao looked immobile and raised his hand to take it, and looked at it when he looked at it, and it was actually a silver collar that weighed ten taels! Lao Dao grinned: "Oops! The little benefactor is really heroic! In this way, the old way is disrespectful. ”

The gray-clothed man nodded: "It's just a reward for compensating the Taoist chief, but there is something to ask for below!" ”

Lao Dao's back molars were about to be exposed: "It's easy to say!! ”

The gray-clothed man pointed to the big gourd in Lao Dao's hand: "Does the Dao Chief have a way to cure this Gu worm disease?" ”

The old man smiled proudly...... Before he could speak, the little apprentice behind him poked his head out and shouted, "You have a little knowledge!" Who is my Master? Huashan Daomen Chen Zhenren is also !! ”

"What? Who are you? The man in gray was shocked when he heard this, and carefully looked at the master and apprentice in front of him, with a puzzled look in his eyes.

"This ...... Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable...... The common name of the poor road is Chen Erbao, the road number is empty, and the ...... Chen Luzhen is actually a poor senior brother......"

The little Taoist priest behind Lao Dao blushed when he heard this, and just wanted to say something, he was stuffed back behind him by Lao Dao's backhand! The little Taoist priest pursed his lips and muttered in a low voice, "No shame! When did Chen Zhenren recognize you as a junior brother? He won't even let us eat a meal......"

The gray-clothed man nodded indifferently: "I see that the master and apprentice of the Dao Elder seem to have come to dispose of the Gu worm in this corpse, the monk's compassion is admirable, and the Dao Leader knows what the path of this Gu worm is?" ”

Lao Dao smiled proudly, twisted a few mouse whiskers, and before he could speak, he saw a gray shadow "squeak" and jumped on the old Dao's somewhat dilapidated Dao crown! It was actually a small black monkey the size of a palm!!

The gray-clothed man's eyes lit up: "This is, Gu Eater Spirit Monkey?" ”

"What a knowledge!" The little monkey with black hair and white face jumped on the shoulder of the little Taoist priest and stretched out his paws to catch lice at the sideburns of the little Taoist priest! The little Taoist priest has always loved to be clean, how can there be lice for it to catch? With a blushing face, he grabbed the Gu Eating Monkey back into the bag behind him, and said, "With this little monkey, we can know from afar if there is any Gu worm plague nearby, and then our master and apprentice will do good deeds and accumulate virtue to help the people!" ”

The gray-clothed man nodded: "Is this Gu worm the reason why these mission attachΓ©s have no blood in their bodies?" ”

"Ahem!" Lao Dao stuffed the apprentice who was still showing off behind him: "This, the apprentice is right!" That's basically it, this kind of Gu worm is also called bloodthirsty Gu and blood-turning Gu. The smell is fishy, and the first generation of Gu worms can only be blamed when they enter the stomach! If the eggs break out of the abdomen, they can contaminate people within ten steps, reproduce another generation, and infect humans and animals within a thousand steps! After five generations, the Gu worm completely turned into a plague! Nearly half of the middle people died of diarrhea and swelling, and young people ...... You know that there is Gu poison in this corpse and still use it to retreat from the enemy, this is going to cause evil!! ”

The man in gray frowned and said, "In a hurry, there is nothing to be done!" Does the Dao Master know where this Gu poison is coming from? ”

Lao Dao simply shook his head neatly: "I don't know! ”

The man in gray thought for a while, raised his hand and gently tore off the black veil, it was Yang Li, the innkeeper outside Santing County!!

As soon as Yang Li appeared, Lao Dao was stunned, and a trace of inexplicable meaning flashed in his eyes! The little Taoist priest behind him poked his head out and carefully looked at Yang Li's delicate young face, but there was only a trace of curiosity in his eyes. Yang Li clenched his fists: "There is an enemy who is not in the same sky, and he is hidden in the Jiaozhi Mission, and he is a secret agent of Yan Zhitang!" In the blood of the lower body, but because of Yan Zhitang's secret and neat methods, he had to come here to see the clues, who knew that he almost fell into the trap! I won't tell the Taoist chief too much information in the next place, so as not to implicate the Taoist chief, but since the Taoist chief can heal those injured Yan Zhitang sitting detectives, can I take it with me on this trip? I just want to know the inside story and never make trouble! Leave and never see each other again! How is it? ”

"Huh? This ......" Lao Dao pinched the mouse whiskers and muttered in his eyes: "Poor Dao was originally to do good deeds and accumulate virtues, since you have an enmity with Yan Zhitang, it has something to do with the Qin of the imperial court...... The poor road was involved for no reason, so how can it be good? Inappropriate, inappropriate......"

The little Taoist priest behind the old Taoist stretched out his finger and poked his master: "Master! Don't you know what Yan Zhitang has done over the years? ...... destroyed in their hands",

"Shut up!" Lao Dao suddenly became angry: "How can you understand these things as a child? ”

The little Taoist priest was stunned, turned his head angrily and stopped talking. Yang Li smiled slightly, reached out and took out a black cloth bag from his waist, gently untied it, and a burst of pearl light was instantly revealed!

"Yikes! What a beautiful pearl!! The little Taoist priest covered his mouth in surprise! Lao Dao saw that almost all of the pearls in this bag were the size of cherries, and there were more than a dozen of them! Put it at the moment, and change a set of decent mansions in this city! If you get Bianliang City, where nobles gather, the value is even higher!

Yang Li smiled lightly: "This matter may indeed cause trouble for the Daoist master and apprentice, these pearls should be regarded as Xie Yi's compensation in advance!" The Taoist will definitely have some means to hide his identity when he walks the rivers and lakes, and the Taoist can only heal the sick and receive remuneration and watch from below! No matter what the result is, we will never see each other again, can the Taoist chief consider it? ”

Lao Dao looked at these dozen or so pearls in his eyes, and his heart was itching, and he almost pulled off these rat whiskers! After hesitating for a long time and before he could speak, the little Taoist priest behind him poked his head out and said crisply: "Okay! It's a deal! ”

It would take at least a day for the poison to kick in, and the three people who made the deal had to rest for a while before getting dark from the hole into the thatched hut. Then they parted ways through the darkness of the night...... However, Yang Li and Lao Dao agreed to meet at the Baofeng Inn at the south gate of Guizhou Mansion the morning after tomorrow, and then looked for an opportunity to go to the state capital together to diagnose and treat several people who were poisoned by Yan Zhitang.

Yang Li took advantage of the darkness to hide in a small uninhabited garden nearby, changed out of his gray tights, put on a moon-white robe and a thin belt, and wrapped the changed clothes into a stone and threw them into a small pond. didn't wear any servant hats, Shi Shiran went out of the garden and went straight to the direction of the state capital yamen!

Lao Dao suddenly became bold in his pocket at this time, gritted his teeth, but took the little apprentice to live in the cheapest inn, and went to the street to buy half a roast duck, a pound of mutton, and a pound of turbid wine, and came back happily and closed the door to eat and drink with the apprentice.

The little Taoist priest seems to have been struggling for a long time, and at this time he is also gobbling up duck meat. With food stuffed in his mouth, the little Taoist priest asked the master who was drinking with his head bored, "Master! What the hell is that young man's whereabouts? If there's any danger, let's just run away! It's a big deal to quietly throw the antidote to Yan Zhitang's few sitting spies and not implicate the people! ”

Lao Dao took a sip of wine, twisted the mouse whiskers and squinted at his apprentice: "If you don't want to be a teacher!" Do you think I don't know what you're thinking? Since the teacher promised him, he will not break his word and gain weight......"

The little Taoist priest rolled his eyes: "It seems that your old man has done a lot of these things...... Otherwise, Huashan Chen Zhenren can look down on us so much? Finally, let's get down the mountain......"

"Alright, alright! Meat and wine can't stop your mouth! The old man glared at the thug angrily, and drank to himself.

In the dead of night, the little Taoist priest ate and drank to his heart, and went to sleep in the guest room with the little monkey on his head, and the empty old Taoist himself turned out a new Taoist robe in the broken baggage, a Taoist crown, and a forged degree, and even a fake beard! It seems that he has done this impostor before.

There were two beds in the inner and outer rooms, and the old man and the clothes were sitting in the outer room, but he was thinking about the young man he met in Yizhuang in the afternoon...... There is a grudge against Yan Zhitang, and the Jiaozhi Mission...... The detectives in the Jiaozhi Mission are at least the manpower of the internal guards in Bianjing City! This person's enemy status is not low, and the smell of this kid when he investigates the corpse...... Even his master and apprentice hiding in the corner of the courtyard were probably discovered by him, and those Yan Zhitang's spies, this little guy may have started to calculate how to get out early in the morning!

That breath...... Could it be that it is a technique to mend the heavens? Wrong! Lao Dao suddenly opened his eyes, and a trace of shock and doubt flashed in his eyes...... "It shouldn't be!" At that time, Lao Dao also looked at his eyes carefully! There is no abnormality...... This kind of exercise, or talent, is rare to see in a hundred years, and the southern country ...... The Southern Tang Dynasty was controlled by Buddhism at that time, and the Xuanmen had already been abandoned, and the queen was dead, and the Li family had already disappeared. Chudi ...... That clan has long been gone, and there is a gate in Guigu and Shuzhong...... Jinyun Mountain! ”

Lao Dao raised his head and looked at the bright moon outside the window, and muttered to himself: "Jinyun Mountain, Yan Zhitang!" That's right, the last mountain chief of Hanzhang Academy is Wang Yunjie! His junior brother Xiao Hongyu seemed to have half of the Heaven Mending Technique in his hand...... Seemingly...... This kid escaped from Hanzhang Academy! ”

At this time, the little Taoist Qinglian in the middle was sleeping with the little monkey in her arms, and the empty old Taoist outside was looking at the bright moon outside the window and couldn't figure it out! The breath on that kid at that time ...... Is it really a heaven-mending technique that has not appeared in the world for a long time? But this kid doesn't have heavy pupils!
