Chapter 66: The Five Ghosts of Qinchuan
Ning Xiaomeng rode his horse and galloped in the direction of Luo Jieling.
Ning Jiang sat behind his sister, hugging her waist, her sister's delicate body was originally relatively petite, almost nestled in his chest. His gaze crossed over his sister's bun and looked at the distant mountains that were hazy in the night.
"Brother, those bad guys just now were really all sent by the 'full-sleeved bamboo flower' to arrest us?" Xiaomeng asked.
"Hmm!" Ning Jiang replied, "That's right. β
Xiaomeng said hatefully: "Then why is she pretending to be so good to us and want to help us?" β
Ning Jiang said with a smile: "This is the rivers and lakes, you can't have the heart to harm people, and you can't have the heart to prevent people." On the rivers and lakes, there is righteousness and sinisterity, don't trust others casually. β
The horse's hooves made a sound of stomping, stomping, trampling, trampling on the frosty grass.
Xiao Mengmeng killed six people at once just now, and his heart was still a little fluttering, but fortunately his brother was fine, otherwise those people would not be able to compensate even if they died many times.
She asked in a whisper, "Brother...... Isn't Xiaomeng very powerful? β
Ning Jiang nodded: "Well, it's amazing." β
Xiaomeng asked excitedly: "Then, who is more powerful, me and the 'overlord knife' we met last time?" β
Ning Jiang said: "This ...... You're still much worse than him! "Compared to a grandmaster-level master at the beginning, this is too demanding.
"Oh!" Xiaomeng lowered his head. Although she killed those six people at once, she had quite confidence in herself, but that "Badao" was the first person she met in the rivers and lakes, and she couldn't help but compare with him, and now she knew that she was still a lot worse than him, so she thought that the rivers and lakes were really still hidden dragons and crouching tigers.
Ning Jiang was behind her, scratching her sister's head, and suddenly, her eyes looked ahead, and said, "Those are...... Dead person? β
Xiaomeng said: "Dead people? "Riding forward, I saw a small stream in front of me, and there were many corpses scattered around the stream.
These corpses were all dressed in cloth armor, and they turned out to be the soldiers they had met yesterday, the soldiers brought by Madame Cao, they fell by the stream, their faces unspeakable, their faces distorted in the moonlight, obviously they were next to the stream, but they were like travelers in the desert with a dry cough, dying of thirst because of lack of water.
Xiaomeng thought to himself, my brother is so powerful, obviously I am the one who practices martial arts, but my brother saw them before me.
Ning Jiang dismounted, carefully examined the corpses, and then whispered, "They are all poisoned. β
Xiaomeng said: "Poisoning? β
Ning Jiang said: "The poisonous son of Xiling...... They were all victimized by the poisonous son. β
At this moment, a cry came from the other side: "Fourth sister...... Fourth Sister ......"
The sound was as loud as a cat meowing at night, if it was just suddenly heard in the night, I was afraid that it would think it was a ghost, and even Xiaomeng felt a little numb when he heard it.
Ning Jiang was not afraid at all, so he walked in the direction where the voice came from, only to see a small figure in the grass over there, grabbing a person on the ground and crying. The brother and sister looked together and saw that this woman of the same size as eight or nine years old was the dwarf girl they had seen during the day.
Lying in front of her, although she was wearing the clothes of an old woman, her skin was dark and white, like a good woman smeared with dirt, and her face was even more strange, half of it was wrinkled like an old woman, and half of it was like a snake's skin.
Xiaomeng said in a low voice: "Brother......" She saw that the woman who fell to the ground was the "old woman" in the store, but she didn't know why she became like this?
Ning Jiang thought, "Transfiguration? β
When the dwarf heard their voices, she looked up sharply and looked at them in alarm. Ning Jiang looked and saw that the "old woman" who fell to the ground was already dying, and the fair part of her skin was covered with spots, and these spots were spreading to the two little hands of the dwarf girl who was holding her.
There is no doubt that this "old woman" has been poisoned by the poisoner, just like those who died by the stream, and this dwarf girl is also being infected, and it will not be long before they all die here.
He shrugged: "Let's go!" "With little dreams, get out of here.
After taking two steps, Xiaomeng turned around, looked at the dwarf girl who was crying non-stop, remembered the situation when he thought his brother was dead just now, his heart softened, and he said in a low voice: "Brother, let's help them, right?" β
Ning Jiang spread his hands: "Do you know what they do?" They're selling human meat buns! β
Xiaomeng froze for a while, and finally looked at the "little girl" pitiful, and said: "Then we save them, and then let them promise not to harm anyone again?" β
Ning Jiang said: "They said it, you believe it?"
When the dwarf girl heard them speak, she realized that these two people might have a way to save her fourth sister, so she rushed over, knelt down in front of them, and kowtowed her head with both hands on the ground: "Save my fourth sister, please, save my fourth sister." β
She wanted to say that as long as she could save her fourth sister, no matter what she wanted her to do, but when she looked down, her hands were under the moonlight, and the black spots were crawling up along her little hands like ants, and her body was as hot as dehydration, and she knew that she would not live long. So he cried and continued to kowtow: "Save my fourth sister, please, save my fourth sister." β
She cried hoarsely, tearing the air through the night.
Ning Jiang thought that this girl knew that she would not be able to survive by herself, but she only begged others to save her sister, but she was also angry.
I couldn't help but think of my sister's sadness when I "died" just now, so I shook my head and paced to the "old woman". He put his right hand into the brocade bag at his waist, touched an object, and channeled the energy of the treasure through a technique that was difficult for others to detect.
Immediately after that, his eyes glared, as if a firelight shot out of his eyes, shining on the "old woman", and at the same time, the Wen Qi in the Ancestral Sect of the Eyebrows and the Seal Mansion also covered it.
In just a few moments, the toxins on the "old woman's" body had faded, and her breathing had become calmer.
Ning Jiang paced in front of the dwarf girl: "She's fine." β
"Thank you! Thank you! "The dwarf girl's voice was dry and hoarse, and she couldn't support it, so she planted it.
Ning Jiang thought to himself, it's better to be a good person to the end! The right hand continued to hold the treasure in the bag, and the fire in his eyes, and the tone of the ancestor in the eyebrows, once again covered the dwarf girl......
***
About two quarters of an hour later, the "old woman" suddenly turned over and got up: "Little girl? Little girl? β
Her face was wrinkled, generally chapped, and very strange, and her heart was anxious at the moment, and her voice sounded very young.
It's just that as soon as she sat up, she saw her little sister kneeling beside her like a cat, and shouted at her, "Fourth sister! β
The "old woman" was relieved to see that the little sister was fine, and found that there were other people around her, and suddenly looked up, only to see five steps away, there were two people standing, one was a scholar wearing a leather mou and carrying his hands behind his back, and the other was a girl with a sword at her waist and a bun of flowers, and it turned out to be the two brothers and sisters who passed by in front of their store yesterday.
The dwarf girl said happily: "Fourth sister, it was the old man who saved us. β
It turns out that the young man turned out to be a lifter? The "old woman" knew that she was the miasma of the Xiling poisonous son, and it was rumored that the poison given by the poisonous son was almost unsolvable, and this young man was able to save her, which originally surprised her.
But now that I know that although this young man is young, he is a lifter, and his heart is relieved.
In the folk saying, every person who lifts people, that is a Wenqu star, they are literate. Although she doesn't know what Wenqi can do, but there is a golden house in the book, and people are scholars who are under Wenqu Xing, even if she can solve the poison of the poisonous son, it doesn't seem to be a very strange thing.
The "old woman" was about to step forward to thank her, but she looked like her own face, but she panicked and burrowed into the grass.
Ning Jiang and Xiaomeng looked and saw that the "old woman" had disappeared into the grass and stayed by the stream on the other side for a while.
After a while, a young woman wearing a jinghai cloth skirt moved out and bowed down in front of them: "The slave Qin is faceless, thank you for saving your life." β
Although Ning Jiang is young, he is only sixteen or seventeen years old, younger than her, but every person can be called "master", regardless of whether he has a wife or children.
Scholars like Ning Jiang, most of the time, with these Jianghu characters, it is like living in two worlds. After all, the entire Great Zhou Dynasty is the world of scholars, and they, the people in the rivers and lakes, can only crawl and struggle in the quagmire called "Jianghu" that the government cannot control.
Xiaomeng's eyes widened, could this Qin Wuyan be the "old woman" just now?
Whether it's age, appearance, or clothes, it looks like two people?
Ning Jiang knew that even if she looked now, she was not her true face, but judging from the skin she had just revealed, it was only about twenty-nine years old. He said, "Shameless girl, who are you?" β
Qin Wuyan was grateful to the Ningjiang brothers and sisters for saving the two sisters, and did not hide it, and worshipped: "The slave family is a person from the mountain, because of the jealousy and hatred of his stepmother when he was a child, he was disfigured by her and exiled to the mountains. The slave family has three righteous brothers, a little sister, including the slave family a total of five people, although we call ourselves Qinchuan Wuyi, the people in the rivers and lakes in this area, but more call us Qinchuan five ghosts, over time, we also call ourselves five ghosts. β
He also said: "The eldest brother of the slave family is surnamed Qin Mingmo, because he had albinism when he was a child, he was abandoned by others, and he has always only acted at night, so he is called a white-faced ghost; My second brother, Qin Ze, is proficient in water, and he is the only one of the five of us who has some knowledge, called the Empty Ghost; The third brother, Qin Kan, learned the art of drilling into the ground, and was called the crucible ghost; The slave family knows a little about the art of disguise, and is called Wuyan Ghost; This is our little sister Qin Xiaoyaer, although she looks like an eight-year-old girl, she is actually sixteen years old, called a delicate ghost! The five of us, in the past, were always in the Qinchuan area, doing some tricks, because they were all disgusted people, and they all abandoned their original names, and all took the word 'Qin' given by their father-in-law as their surname. β
Ning Jiang groaned: "The human meat buns you made yesterday ......"
Qin Wuyan hurriedly knelt down and said: "Although we are not good people, we have done a lot of tomb robberies and pits, but we also abide by my father-in-law's teachings of 'stealing is also a way', and we never dare to harm people easily." We were taken in by our father-in-law, and we learned from our father-in-law the ability to earn a living. But recently, my father-in-law had an enemy come to the door, and he was afraid that he would affect us, so he drove the five of us down Luojie Mountain and asked us to leave the country. However, the father-in-law is old, and now he is half-dead, how can we be willing to leave the father-in-law like this? Yes, although he left Luo Jieling, he secretly prevented those people from going up the mountain to harm his father-in-law, and the two sisters made a bun were all those who wanted to kill his father-in-law, but I didn't expect that this time the enemy was too strong, although the slave family escaped with the little sister under the desperate protection of the second brother, but the poison in the body was all thanks to the master's rescue. β
I couldn't help crying: "When we escaped, we looked back and saw that the second brother had fallen, I was afraid that it had fallen into the hands of the enemy in order to cut off the queen for us." β
"Exquisite ghost" Qin Xiaoya'er also cried on the side.
Ning Jiang thought for a while, and suddenly shouted: "What you said, is there a lie?" Between the questions, the tone suddenly diverged, turned into an astonishing momentum, and rolled towards Qin Wuyan and Qin Xiaoya'er.
The second daughter was originally worshipping at his feet, her momentum was already weak, Ning Jiang's literary spirit was sharp, and she used some soul dementoring techniques, in front of them, she was immediately as tall as a god, and her powerful power directly captured their hearts.
Under his Taishan-like momentum, the two sisters panicked in their hearts, knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing. Qin Wuyan knelt down and said: "The slave family is guilty, so there is only one thing to hide from the master!" β
Ning Jiang said coldly: "What's the matter?" Say! β
A scold.
Qin Wuyan's head slammed on the ground, and he whispered: "Just the matter of human meat buns, in addition to the enemies who peeped into the mountain in recent days, the slave family used to sometimes go down the mountain and deliberately disguised himself as a glamorous woman. The slave family is guilty, and the slave family deserves to die, but in addition, there is no other word to deceive the master, please see the master. β
Under the momentum of Ning Jiang, the two sisters trembled.
Ning Jiang thought to herself, "Sure enough", she just said that it was only in these few days that they made their father-in-law's enemies into steamed buns, but human flesh and beef must taste different, and look at the way those soldiers ate with relish and full of oil and water yesterday...... These two people have definitely "practiced" before!
