After a pause, Tang Wannian asked, "Then according to the will of the military advisor, what should I do?" Is it impossible to let the tiger return to the mountain? ”。

Fan Junshi still smiled inscrutablely, stroked the white beard under his chin, and cast a pleased glance at Tang Wannian. secretly said in his heart: It seems that he listened to what the old man said just now, the son can be taught, and the old man's hard work is not in vain!

After a pause, he continued: "If I remember correctly, before the action, the Holy Lord's secret decree: the three roads will be unified by the King of the South. At this time, the prince can send an order to assign the "Qinglong General" and "Suzaku General" two groups of men and horses to speed up the pursuit, and our army is behind the palace. In case you catch up, it is the prince who commands and dispatches well; If the remnants of the Ma Jiajun were let go, it would also be the fault of the two generals "Qinglong" and "Suzaku".

Taking a step back, even if it is to let the tiger return to the mountain, think about it, Lord Wang: The king of Dingbei and the king of Guanxi are resisting the strong robbers in the grassland at the moment, thousands of miles away; Ma Jiajun still has a remnant of his sins, and the saint must be unable to sleep and eat today, so who can he count on? The chief military officer of Dachu, the position of the generalissimo of the rebel soldiers and horses is none other than the prince!

Continue to chase and kill, not to mention the loss of our army, your military power will be gone; Let the other two people chase after him, the prince can advance and retreat freely, it's a big deal to let the "surrendering general" carry a black pot, anyway, the horse thief also broke through from him! What's more, his life and death are uncertain, maybe there is no proof of death. That's all I have to say, please decide! ”。

King Pingnan was silent, bowed his head and thought for a moment. After a while, he raised his head and smiled at the Fan Junshi in front of him. Then he clenched his fists slightly and said in a low voice: "Thank you Master Fan for your guidance!" I will send an order to "General Suzaku" to lead his subordinates to chase after him with all his might, and not let go of a thief. Our army rested in place and slowly moved forward. ”

In a small fishing village by the river.

In the patriarch's house, the little black beard with a black mole on his chin lifted one foot and rested on the wooden chair on which he sits, and bothered with a thick fish bone between his teeth, burping as he belched.

Hearing the footsteps outside the door, he quickly landed on the foot on the wooden chair and replaced it with a solemn face.

The patriarch pushed the door in, bowed down with a smile tattoo on his face and asked, "Have you eaten enough?" This place is remote and poor, and the little old man is afraid that he will not greet him well, so he treats the real person slowly. ”

Xiao Heihu stood up, turned around and waved his hand generously: "It's okay, it's okay, walking the rivers and lakes all the year round, sleeping in the open air, whether it's delicacies from the mountains and seas, or rough and light food, it's all the same for me, it's just a means to help recover my vitality." ”

Then he took two steps forward, stared at the patriarch's face and said, "I looked at the old man's face and the patriarch, and I thought about it for a long time, and decided to speak up and leak a few words of heaven. …… Alas, to say it or not? Actually, I'm also very hesitant, divulging the heavens will be punished, but I can't stand by while your people face the catastrophe of annihilation!! ”。

As he spoke, he frowned and turned away, as if he wanted to speak and stopped, unable to make up his mind for a while.

The white-bearded patriarch was frightened into a cold sweat again, and hurriedly saluted: "It's okay to be a real person, Xiao Lao'er is tight-lipped and promises not to let outsiders know." If I can save the lives of my people, I can do anything! ”。

Xiao Heihu raised his neck with his hands behind his back, grew a mouthful, thought for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and turned around suddenly.

"Forget it, I'd rather risk being crushed, I've decided to do you a favor! The yin wind is gusting here, and the demonic spirit is not dispersed, and there should be a thousand-year-old demon with extremely high Taoism! The deity will open the altar tonight, try to see if you can scare her away, and you tell the whole village to come and watch. Remember, those who don't come may be the first to lose their lives. ”

The patriarch nodded again and again, and said, "Don't worry, Xiao Lao'er guarantees that there is no shortage of people in the village." What do we need to prepare? ”。

Xiao Heihu raised his hand and touched his mustache, and said: "Prepare three piles of firewood, five feet of red cloth, one side of the high platform, the most important thing is to prepare enough silver taels, each household to get together a little, wrapped in yellow paper, otherwise the deity is worried that please don't move the immortals, and you can't exert your mana!" It's good to prepare the rest of the Dharma Instruments by yourself."

Xin Botao walked into the yard with a bundle of wet cables in his arms.

When he looked up and saw his father with a slightly hunched back, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Dad, I saw the village patriarch going in and out from house to house, looking mysterious. Have you ever been to our house? What's wrong? ”。

The old man turned around and coughed twice and said, "I've come here, let every family get together some broken silver, saying that he has met a real person who has attained the Tao, and wants to subdue demons and eliminate demons for us, and set up an altar to beg for blessings." In the evening, all the people in the village would go to the high platform to gather and watch the real people cast spells. ”

Xin Botao pouted and shook his head, turned his face and saw that Chen Ling'er was also busy in the courtyard, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Miss Chen, you just got better, Doctor Xue said to let you rest in bed more, put it down quickly!" ”。

Chen Ling'er straightened up, wiped the sweat on her forehead, and said with a slight smile: "It's okay." After lying down for a long time, Ling'er has received the kindness of Brother Xiaotao and the old man, and there is nothing to repay at the moment, see what you can do to help you, otherwise you will be uneasy. ”

She raised her head as she spoke, her eyes were as beautiful as water, and her face was still beautiful and round, but she was much thinner, and her face was slightly pale.

The sky was getting dark, and in front of a high-lying earthen platform in the village, many people had gathered one after another, stretching their necks and muttering.

Xiao Heihu changed into a dark yellow, dirty robe, holding a peachwood sword, walking around in front of people, chanting words in his mouth, and not squinting.

After a while, he stopped, looked up and asked the patriarch, "Are you all here?" ”。

The patriarch craned his neck and looked around, smiling and nodding.

Chen Linger didn't want to join in the excitement, but she couldn't stand the hard persuasion of Brother Xiaotao and the old man, so she had to follow and stand behind the crowd quietly.

Three piles of firewood were lit, and after a puff of smoke, the flames burned.

Xiao Heihu also moved a tablet from nowhere, put it on top of the red cloth, and solemnly inserted three sticks of incense in the copper basin in front of the tablet. In the smoke of the cigarette, the little black beard jumped backwards sharply, swung his peachwood sword and slammed it above the fire.

His slightly comical gesture caused several children in the crowd to laugh, but they were immediately covered by the adults next to him.

Xiao Hei Hu closed his eyes expressionlessly, his mouth kept chanting, and his body kept swaying unbelievably, as if he had some kind of emergency, and he was swinging.

Chen Ling'er frowned silently, hiding behind the crowd and watching coldly.

Xiao Heihu's body suddenly stopped, and at the same time, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked at everyone with burning eyes.

After a while, he spoke: "Fathers and elders, I am a demon hunter from most of the capital, walking the rivers and lakes, catching demons and subduing demons. Passing through the precious land, seeing the demon wind, everyone was afraid of a catastrophe, so they had to stand up and help the big guy tide over the difficulties together!

The deity has caught a little demon and seen it with the patriarch's own eyes. But there is an even more ferocious thousand-year-old demon here, if it is not eradicated, within three days, everyone will have a bloody disaster. The deity is now possessed by a celestial immortal, and he can cast a spell to subdue demons and eliminate demons. But lest you don't believe me, I'll cast some spells at this moment to verify my identity. Hearing is false, seeing is believing, everyone see! ”。

With a gesture of the wooden sword in his hand, everyone turned their heads away.

Xiao Heihu continued: "Do you see the tree halfway up the mountain behind?" The deity wants to knock him down in the air! Let everyone open their eyes and see the power of the immortal possession! ”。

With that, he clicked his toes on the ground, jumped up, made a dashing sword-swinging movement in the air, and shouted: "Fall".

Under the gaze of everyone, hundreds of meters away, the tree with the thickness of the bowl mouth fell halfway up the mountain, and a puff of green smoke rose from the fracture.

The onlookers were stunned by this unbelievable scene, and the audience was silent for a while.

It was a moment later, led by the white-bearded patriarch, that everyone came to their senses from their astonishment.

"The real person really has the body of a half-immortal, please accept our and other small people." As he shouted, the patriarch leaned down to his knees.

In an instant, a large number of hula lalas fell to his knees in the audience.

Xiao Heihu narrowed his eyes, raised his neck, put the peachwood sword behind him with one hand, wiped his little black beard with the other, and said calmly: "Get up!" The deity has appeared, just to save the big guy from the sea of suffering. You can't help with the matter of subduing demons and eliminating demons, there are only two things you can do: first, every time you subdue demons and eliminate demons and eliminate harm for the people, the deity will be greatly injured, you prepare more meals, and the deity can only work after completely recovering its vitality.

Second, the deity has always adhered to the principle of subduing demons and eliminating evil for the people, and regards money as dung! But if you want to ask all the immortals to help, you have to give people some entanglement back and forth, right? The so-called take from the people, use it for the people, I won't ask for any of these money, and I should honor all the immortals for the big guy! ”。

The patriarch, who was kneeling on the ground, raised his eyes full of tears and said, "As long as the real person and half immortal are willing to take action, they will save us from the disaster of blood and light." All that money is something outside of the body! ”。

Xiao Heihu nodded again and again with satisfaction, stepped forward and stretched out a hand to help the patriarch up, and said in his mouth: "The old man understands the righteousness and says it well!" ”。

The patriarch stood up tremblingly, patted the dust on his knees, and stood with his head bowed respectfully.

Xiao Heihu glanced at the patriarch and asked in a low voice, "Uncle, have there been strangers from other places in our village recently?" ”。

The patriarch thought for a moment, and suddenly turned his head to look at Xin Botao, father and son, who were also kneeling on the ground. He asked loudly: "Xiao Tao, a few months ago, your father and son rescued a strange woman from the river, and I seem to have seen it in your courtyard in the afternoon!" ”。

Xin Botao was stunned for a moment, then immediately jumped up from the ground with a red face and a thick neck, and shouted: "So what? ”。

Before the patriarch could reply, the little black beard with the body of a half-immortal flipped his wrist, put the peachwood sword standing on his back across his chest, and said with a cold gaze: "This woman's origin is unknown, it is very likely that the thousand-year-old demon entrenched here has turned into a human form!" ”。

The villagers kneeling on the ground were in an uproar, and hurriedly moved away from Xin Botao's father and son, looking at them as if the father and son had already become monsters.

Xin Botao puffed out his chest with a flushed face, and reprimanded loudly: "Nonsense! After I rescued Miss Chen from the river, Doctor Xue gave her a pulse, and Doctor Xue can testify! Without Doctor Xue's treatment, she would have died a long time ago! ”。

The white-bearded patriarch gritted his teeth and said, "That Divine Doctor Xue can only heal diseases and save people, and he is not a demon hunter, how can he recognize demons and monsters?!" What about the girl? ”。

Xin Botao turned his head suddenly, but he also scared himself out of a cold sweat: Miss Chen, who was originally standing quietly behind him, was nowhere to be seen at the moment.
