(Recently, the work applied for a contract, and the editor-in-charge put forward some opinions, so two new chapters were added at the beginning of the book, and the content of the following chapters was only fine-tuned!) We apologize for any inconvenience caused. )
********************************
After Wang Jun finished speaking, he took out two jade plates, one was on Daoyuan's body, and the other was handed to Xu Gang, and said to Xu Gang: "Brother Xu, if you are interested, you can go to Yazhou to join our army." Then he paused, with a heroic face: "Man, you should gallop on the battlefield and make contributions!" ”
"How can the boy be able to be appreciated by the king army lord today, I feel very honored, I also dreamed of galloping on the battlefield and making contributions, if there is a chance, I will definitely come to find the king army master, and then you don't turn me away!" Xu Gang was flattered when he heard this, who doesn't want to make a contribution, not to mention that now Wang Junzhu is kind to himself, he is alone, and he just has a place to go in his army, but unfortunately his father's revenge has not been avenged, if he is thrown into the army, he will unfortunately die......
Wang Junzhu laughed a few times when he heard this, asked Xu Gang for a piece of paper, and drew a simple map with a brush, indicating the important characteristics of Mengguigou, and after handing it to Xu Gang, he said goodbye: "Brother Xu, brother, I hope you can come to our army, I will open the door for you at any time, but I can't wait to leave the army for a long time, so I can't accompany you to Mengguigou." ”
Xu Gang picked up the map and looked at it, then put it away, and then saluted with his fists to Lord Wang, full of gratitude: "Lord Wang, thank you for your help, when a few things on me are over, I will definitely go to you!" ”
"Okay, ready to wait! Haha~~" Lord Wang laughed heartily.
After arranging a room for Wang Junzhu, Commander Meng and Daoyuan to rest, Xu Gang went back to the room.
looked at Wu Ling'er lying on the bed, her beautiful eyes were closed under her long eyelashes and trembled in pain. Xu Gang leaned in front of her, his hands unconsciously trying to smooth her tightly locked eyebrows. Wu Ling'er's face looked even paler under the cover of the night clothes, and her lips lost their former luster. Xu Gang's eyes were full of pity: "Wu Ling'er, please hold on, I will definitely get the corpse incense konjac to detoxify you."
"Bang bang bang! Xu Gongzi ...... Are you there? The voice of Shopkeeper Li sounded outside the door.
"Xu Gongzi, this is the title deed of the inn and the house in the east of the city, and some money, Xiao Laozi will hand it over to you, early tomorrow morning, I will take my daughter and stay away from this place of right and wrong." Shopkeeper Li handed over a stack of paper, Xu Gang took it in his hand and saw that it was the title deed and the house deed, as well as a stack of official jiaozi, with five face values and ten face values, roughly calculated, at least fifty yuan.
"Shopkeeper Li, what are you ......" Xu Gang grew so big, and for the first time he held a lot of money, he didn't feel happy in his heart, but he was more puzzled.
Before he finished speaking, Shopkeeper Li handed over a large number of keys and said slowly: "There are still a few iron coins in the cabinet in the hall, and the keys to the entire inn are in it." As he spoke, he took out a few more from the bunch of keys and said, "This is the key to the house in the east of the city......
Xu Gang was completely stunned, quickly interrupted Shopkeeper Li, and handed these things back to Shopkeeper Li and said: "Shopkeeper Li, these things are too valuable, I deserve them, please take them back, if it weren't for me, you ...... And your daughter won't be what she is now! ”
"Xu Gongzi, don't say that, if it weren't for you, maybe I would be even more miserable, maybe you take this money, and you should be paid for saving my daughter back!" Speaking of this, Shopkeeper Li looked at Xu Gang, and the corners of his mouth pulled a wry smile: "You can accept it with confidence, there is still a lot of money in the little old man!" ”
"And what about the title deed and the house deed?" Xu Gang's face was full of doubts.
"Little Lao'er doesn't want to stay here for one more day, and he doesn't plan to come back in the future, so the house will be given to you together, you can accept it, this is a transfer document, you just need to sign it!" Shopkeeper Li said and handed over another paperwork, and after Xu Gang took it, he found that Shopkeeper Li had already signed, and it seemed that he had made up his mind to leave.
"Shopkeeper Li, I said before, I have my principles, you take these things back, you can rent out the inn, the house will be calm after the wind and waves, maybe you want to come back, and there is a place to live, right?" Is it right or wrong to do all this yourself? Why did you put up with it again and again, but it turned out to be worse and worse?
"Xu Gongzi, hey, since you insist, Xiao Lao'er is not reluctant, I will be ready to go to Bianjing tomorrow, take care!" Shopkeeper Li has been going south to Peking University for half of his life, and he originally planned to retire in Meizhou, but he never came up with this kind of thing, and now he just wants to go far.
"Shopkeeper Li, take care too! I'll come to visit you when I have the chance! Xu Gang's nose was a little sour.
Shopkeeper Li looked at Xu Gang, nodded, and turned around to rest, Xu Gang looked at his back, a feeling of loneliness and desolation welled up in his heart, and the guilt in his heart was even stronger.
Time was pressing, Xu Gang decided to set off with Wu Ling'er overnight, hurry up, and go to the fierce ghost ditch to find the corpse incense konjac.
In a deep valley, the green meadows are dotted with many half-man-high bushes, and a stream is like a curved ribbon intertwined. As far as the eye can see, there are dense forests on both sides, the sun is blocked by the mountain peaks, the whole valley is unusually silent, even the sound of wind and birdsong has disappeared, and a stream of cold air dominates every corner unscrupulously. Dao Yuan was in front, riding a horse carrying supplies to open the way in front, Xu Gang hugged Wu Ling'er tightly in front of him, and the two of them followed closely behind.
"Daoyuan, please take two robes for me, why is it getting colder and colder the more you walk?" Xu Gang tightened his clothes, trembled and said, "It's almost summer, what the hell is this place, such an evil sect." ”
Dao Yuan answered, took two robes and handed them to Xu Gang, and then took out the map and looked at it: "Xu Gongzi, we should be close to the fierce ghost ditch, you see that on both sides of the hillside in front, there are many yin locust trees, we have to speed up and strive to find the entrance to the tomb before dark." ”
Xu Gang put the robe on Wu Ling'er's body, put one on himself, and tightened the belt: "Okay, then let's go quickly!" "Hit the horse, speed up.
"Xu Gongzi, do you believe that there are ghosts in this world?" Daoyuan thought of the story of the fierce ghost ditch and couldn't help asking.
Xu Gang was stunned when he heard this, although he had never seen a ghost, he believed that there were ghosts in the world, otherwise how could many problems be explained? He didn't answer Daoyuan's question, but asked rhetorically: "Daoyuan, have you ever seen a ghost?" ”
Daoyuan nodded: "Well, I saw it when I was a child!" ”
Xu Gang continued: "When you were a child, you were so young, how could you be sure that you were a ghost? ”
Dao Yuan smiled and said, "If I just saw it myself, it might be a dazzle, but I and a few cousins have seen it, how can this be explained?" ”
Xu Gang became interested in Daoyuan's words, so he continued to ask: "What do you see look like?" Tell me about it! ”
Daoyuan looked at the past unbearable, and said: "I was only more than seven years old that year, one day, I had a late quarrel with a few cousins, and when it was almost time, everyone was in a hurry, and they came to the door together Suddenly, an illusory white figure appeared in the position of the hanging flower door, with a hat on his head, and a burden on his shoulders, and walked into my family yard crookedly. My father heard our shouts and rushed out of the room, only to see the figure disappear after two flashes. ”
Daoyuan paused and said: "The next day, we talked about this matter together, after your words and my description, I found that we all saw things differently, you said that this is not a ghost, what else can it be?" ”
Xu Gang slowly turned his head and observed the surroundings, it seemed that this place was a little colder, shrunk his head and said: "Is this how you entered the Daomen, the Daomen is very good at subduing demons and eliminating demons, how much have you learned?" ”
Daoyuan straightened his chest and smiled: "Xu Gongzi don't worry, I have been learning the Tao for so many years, and I am enough to deal with the little monsters." ”
Xu Gang looked at Dao Yuan, who was walking in front, and was very suspicious of his ability to subdue demons and subdue demons: "By the way, have you ever caught ghosts before?" ”
"Uh, no!" Daoyuan was stunned for a moment when he heard this: "Since I saw the ghost that time, I haven't encountered it again, and I have no chance to catch it." ”
The two of them just said a word, I said a word, and unconsciously walked a long way.
Suddenly, Daoyuan stopped and made a stop gesture to Xu Gang, Xu Gang hit his horse and came to Daoyuan's side, only to see a person lying not far ahead.
Xu Gang's heart tightened, and he shouted to the front: "The brother in front, can you hear it?" If you hear it, you will hear it back. ”
Daoyuan listened to Xu Gang's words and said, "Young Master Xu, don't move here, I'll go over and see what's going on." ”
Xu Gang shook his head and said to Dao Yuan: "Let's go over together, take care of each other!" ”
