After experiencing the incident of the Three Holy Caves, Ziya was much closer to Huang Xue, and the journey was boring, and the conversation between the two became more.

"Ayuki. ”

"What?"

"I heard what Senior Sister Deng said before, you used a demon-breaking ballad to break the demon girl's Heavenly Demon Soul Devouring Array, and that ballad was also taught in the dream of the immortals?"

"This ...... Of course, this is. ”

"Ah Xue, have you learned some kind of dream recollection technique, but you can ask God in your dreams?"

"This ...... I didn't learn that. ”

"That'....... I wonder which god gave that demon-breaking ballad?"

"This ...... This, by the way, the fairy who taught me the song is the chopsticks fairy. ”

"Chopsticks Immortal?" Ziya said in surprise: "Where does this immortal come from, why have I never heard of it, and there is no record in the classical books." ”

"How do I know this, why do you ask me about this mortal in your immortal circle. By the way, Uncle Jiang, why don't I teach you that demon-breaking ballad. ”

"This ...... The fairy dreams taught you, how can you teach each other such secret methods privately. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, the chopsticks fairy is the easiest to talk to, I'll teach you, not only will they not blame, but they will be happy." ”

"This is very good, I will make good use of this demon-breaking ballad and carry it forward. ”

"By the way, there's also a demon-breaking dance, otherwise I'll teach it to you as well. ”

"This ...... You don't have to do that......"

The two went all the way south, and in two months, they crossed the Qinling Mountains and entered Yongzhou. During this period, they also encountered a few mountain spirits and wild monsters, but the mountain here is already deep, and the people who settled here are all pure and cultivated monsters.

On this day, the two walked in front of a large river. I saw that the river was more than ten miles wide, and the river was going eastward, like thunder. This river is very familiar with Huangxue, and it is a major river near the hometown of the previous life, the Han River.

At this time, there was naturally no bridge on the Han River, and finding a boat to cross the river was the normal mode of transportation in this era. The two searched along the river for two days, and Fang saw a fishing boat in the middle of the river. The two called the fishing boat to the shore, only to see that the boat was supported by two middle-aged men, both in their thirties, dark and thin, wearing a suit and hat.

Ziya said: "The two boatmen, can you make it convenient and send the two of us across the river." ”

A boatman said: "There is no problem in sending you across the river, but it takes a day to cross the river and go back and forth, which delays the fishing, and the two of us live in difficulty, but we have to cut off the family's rations." ”

Huang Xue said with a smile: "It's okay, young master, I have money, send us across the river, and I will give you more money." ”

The boatman also smiled: "If you have money, there is naturally no problem." Please come aboard. ”

Huang Xue winked at Ziya proudly, then took the lead and jumped onto the bow of the boat, Ziya smiled slightly, and followed. The two didn't notice that the two captains exchanged a playful look with each other as they boarded the boat.

At this time, the Han River is not as polluted as in later generations, the river water is blue and clear, and you can see the swimming fish in the water from time to time.

Walking to the heart of the river, a fair man said: "Son, sit firmly, I don't know how much silver the son is willing to give us when we cross the river this time?"

Huang Xue was a little disappointed when she heard this, and frowned: "How about twenty dollars with you?" Twenty dollars is a lot, these two brothers are fishing on the river, and they may not be able to earn twenty dollars a month.

Unexpectedly, the captain smiled and said, "The son is kind, but twenty dollars is a little less." ”

Huang Xue's heart tightened when she heard this, this captain is so greedy, I'm afraid it's not a good way. She remained silent, but her body slowly approached Ziya, and she said, "Then how much do you say it costs?"

The captain said fairly: "Dare to ask the two sons how much money they have in their baggage." ”

When he said this, he was obviously a poor dagger, although Ziya was not deeply involved in the world, he also felt that something was wrong, and frowned and asked, "What do you mean by this?"

The other captain put the penny aside, took out a steel knife and said, "I don't know if the lives of the two are worth the money in the baggage?"

Ziya snorted coldly and stood up.

In the center of the river, the fishing boat drifted down the river, Ziya and Huang Xue sat on the bow of the boat, and the two captains knelt in front of them, and as for the steel knife, they had long since fallen in the river.

Ziya sighed: "Seeing that the two of you are also serious people, I don't want to be water bandits on the river." Seeing that the blood stains on your knives have not gone, I think you have already harmed a lot of pedestrians. ”

A captain said fairly: "Uncle spares his life, we have no choice but to do this." The old mother of the family lies on the sickbed all the year round, and the wife and children are still unable to eat and wear, so they have no choice but to rob pedestrians on the river. This time to do it to the two, it is really blind, as long as the uncle spares our brother this time, we will never dare to make a living in the future. ”

Huang Xue was also extremely angry with the two of them at this time, if it weren't for Ziya's accompaniment, these thieves would have taken their lives. She raised her eyebrows and said, "If you say such things, go and talk to those who you have killed." As he spoke, he turned to Ziya and said, "Uncle Jiang, these two people have done a lot of evil, so it's better to send them to the government." ”

The captain kept kowtowing and cried: "If it is sent to the government, my two lives will not be guaranteed, the old mother at home will be unattended, and the children will be fed without one to feed." Please be merciful and spare the two of us this time. ”

Ziya hesitated: "Ah Xue, as they said, if they are sent to the official, and the old mother, wife and children in the family have no one to support, wouldn't they be like the girl in Xianyang City, who has created a lot of sins." ”

Huang Xue said angrily: "Uncle Jiang's words are unreasonable, when the two of them robbed money and killed people, did they ask each other if they had an old mother, wife and children? How many sins did they create? Such money-greedy villains, how can you guarantee that they will not continue to do evil?"

Ziya hesitated, and it was difficult to decide. He didn't make a decision, and Huang Xue was also in a hurry, not knowing how to continue to persuade.

Seeing that the two were arguing, the two captains glanced at each other, and the two suddenly threw themselves on the sides of the boat, and fell into the water with a "coo-dong".

Ziya and Huang Xue were shocked when they saw this, and they immediately didn't know what to do. Suddenly, the fishing boat shook violently a few times, and it was overturned, and before the two could react, they were also overturned.

A captain showed his head and said with a cruel smile: "Since you want our brother's life, don't blame our brother for being ruthless, so go to the river god to complain." ”

I saw that his whole body was covered with a white light, and as soon as he picked up Huang Xue's clothes, he stepped on the water like a martial arts master, and in just a few breaths, he reached the other side of the river.

Throwing Huang Xue on the shore, Ziya couldn't help but pant heavily. Huang Xue spat out a mouthful of river water and said: "Uncle Jiang, you said that you have such a ability, why do we need to find a boatman, how could we encounter such a thing." ”

Ziya said helplessly: "This river is really wide, and I am not very sure that I can bring you over." At this time, coming from Jiang Xin, it also consumed a lot of energy. ”

The two were resting themselves, and suddenly heard the sound of shouting on the river, and the two followed the voice, only to see the two captains in the heart of the river floating in the water, and shouted: "Gods help, gods help, there is a whirlpool here, we can't get out." ”

Ziya frowned, and was about to get up, Huang Xue grabbed him and said, "Uncle Jiang, don't go, these two people are already poisonous in their hearts and there is no cure, don't waste your strength." ”

Ziya said: "I saved them and let you send them to the government, after all, they are two lives." ”

Huang Xue said: "It is difficult to escape your life if you are sent to the government, what is the difference between not being rescued and not being saved?

Ziya frowned and said nothing. The cries for help grew quieter and quieter until they sank completely. Huang Xue kept pulling Ziya and didn't let go, and Ziya never forcibly broke free.

Seeing the death of the two thieves on the river, Ziya sighed: "I have been practicing in the mountains since I was a child, and my master has always taught me the way to save the common people. Who knows that this time I went down the mountain, if a baby girl in Xianyang didn't have your help, she couldn't be saved. Although the two thieves in the river are full of evil, their families are implicated by them and suffer unwarranted disasters, and I don't even know who their family members are, so naturally I can't save them. I can't save anyone, and I don't know how to save the common people, so what's the use of learning this method. As he spoke, his mood became more and more depressed.

Huang Xue saw that Ziya was so depressed, and she couldn't bear it, and didn't want him to blame himself too much, so she comforted: "Uncle Jiang, don't say that, it's not your fault that these are these." ”

Ziya said: "These things are happening in front of my eyes, but I can't do anything about it, it's not my fault but whose fault is it?"

Huang Xue's heart moved, she had watched a lot of TV series in her previous life, and she was naturally no stranger to the method of throwing the pot, so she said: "Of course this is the fault of this world, uncle, you think, if everyone in the world is rich and lives and works in peace and contentment, who is willing to abandon their own flesh and blood, and who is willing to be a thief." ”

Ziya was shocked when he heard this: "Is it possible that everyone in the world is rich and lives and works in peace and contentment?"

Huang Xue was thinking about the 21st century in the previous life at this time, although he didn't dare to say that everyone was rich and lived and worked in peace and contentment, but it seemed that the abandoned babies in the river and the robbery on the river that he had encountered before had basically disappeared. She sighed: "It's hard to say whether it can be realized, but as long as someone does it, it will improve a lot in the end." ”

Ziya seemed to have realized something, and stopped talking.

Continuing to move forward, Ziya was already silent all the way, Huang Xue thought of many ways to tease him, but he was never in high spirits, and Huang Xue had no choice but to give up.
