Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Wensu River Rises
Hu Guangyong's mansion.
Sun Ran smiled and said, "Brother Wenchang, I see that the monsters here are fierce, and they seem to be coming for you." ”
In just half an hour, he had successfully established a relationship with Yang Tingyong and was commensurate with each other. Of course, this is not really a brother, just a humble title for a literati.
Yang Tingyong wanted to use Sun Ran's ability first, and secondly, he also admired Sun Ran's unearthly demeanor, and the unhappiness in his heart earlier had already been completely eliminated by Sun Ran's means.
Now his thoughts have also changed, in his eyes, Sun Ran is not only a Taoist priest, his knowledge is very profound, enough to be called a celebrity. Since it's a celebrity, it's normal to be arrogant. He is also very willing to make friends with such romantic characters.
Now listening to Sun Ran's words, Yang Ting was shocked in his heart, frowned, and asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”
Sun Ran came one by one: "Hebian County was originally a place of peace, and all the turmoil began after Hu Guangyong, the owner of this house, committed suicide in prison, right?" ”
"Yes." Yang Ting nodded in acknowledgement.
Sun Ran continued to flicker, looking like a god: "People are divided into three souls and seven spirits. After death, the soul will stay in the mortal world for 7749 days, traveling all over the place before death. Last night, I saw Hu Guangyong's soul here. ”
What he said was serious, if Bai Tingxuan hadn't been with him all the time yesterday, maybe he would have been fooled by him. Now seeing Sun Ran pretending, he naturally won't poke it, and only listens with a smile on his face.
Yang Tingyong was suddenly startled, looking left and right in a panic, as if he wanted to find out Hu Guangyong's soul from the shadows of the house.
"There is such a thing! Is his soul still here? ”
Sun Ran's words are nine true and one false, the soul is not unusual, most of the people spread it like this, and Yang Tingyong will naturally be afraid.
"That's not going to happen. I've sent him to the Netherworld to reincarnate. I had a few small conversations with Hu Guangyong, and he also told me the truth, and there was a lot of resentment towards Brother Tai in his words. Did Brother Tai do anything to be sorry for him? ”
These words immediately hit Yang Tingyong's thoughts, and he sighed gloomily: "This matter is indeed my fault first. At that time, when I heard that he had committed a murder, and when the evidence was conclusive, I dared to openly contradict me, and in a fit of rage, I put him in prison. Unexpectedly, it was later discovered that there was another real murderer in the murder. This Hu Guangyong has died because of me, which is really a pity. ”
He sighed for a long time, and then asked, "I don't know what Hu Guangyong said to Brother Changqing?" ”
Sun Ran was waiting for him to ask, and pushed the boat down the river and said the words that had been prepared for a long time: "Hu Guangyong has a grudge in his heart, he can't go to the mortal world, and he thinks hard about revenge." But he is a yin soul and has no power to interfere with the yang world, so he sacrifices the lives of the whole family and invites monsters. Whether it's this murderous house, or the wild boar spirit in the mountains, or the water monster in the Wensu River, it's all the same. His ultimate goal is to deal with you, my lord. ”
Yang Tingyong was still a little unconvinced of Sun Ran's statement, but when he thought that he was the target of these monsters, he was still shocked in his heart, his face was white for a while, blue for a while, and his mood fluctuated violently.
It took him a while before he came back and grabbed Sun Ran's hand: "Brother Changqing, save me!" ”
This sentence is not an official word, but a true expression. He's really scared, whether it's true or not, let's hug a thigh that can get rid of demons first.
"It's nature." Sun Ran quietly withdrew his hand, pointed to Bai Tingxuan on the side and said, "My junior sister Xuanjizi is from the same class as me, and her Taoist skills are exquisite. In the days to come, she will protect you. ”
If he wants to get rid of the demon, it is impossible to stay by Yang Tingyong's side all the time, and with Bai Tingxuan here, he is relieved.
Yang Tingyong was hesitant on his face, obviously not believing Bai Tingxuan's Taoism. The Ming Dynasty favored sons over women, and generally believed that women had no ability, and there was a saying that 'women are virtuous if they were not talented', and now he only believes in Sun Ran.
Sun Ran raised his eyebrows at Bai Tingxuan, Bai Tingxuan understood, and said, "Don't doubt it, adults, and look at my magic sword." ”
With that, her eyes flashed with golden light, and the Qingping Sword appeared in the air in front of her at the same time.
"Go."
Bai Tingxuan stretched out her hand and pointed to the stone rockery in the yard, and the magic sword shot out, passed through the stone, turned back, and continued to enter through the stone, if repeated ten times, the magic sword flew back to Bai Tingxuan's side and disappeared.
After waiting for a while, a breeze blew, and hundreds of catties of stones suddenly became short and turned into gravel.
Yang Tingyong was speechless by the shock, and the officials in the distance were also frightened and exclaimed, and some of them were timid, so they turned around and ran.
Sun Ran smiled and said, "What do adults think of my junior sister's Taoism? Can you protect the safety of your family? ”
Yang Tingyong didn't expect that the woman next to him, who looked gentle and elegant, would have such a thunderbolt method, which he saw with his own eyes, and he was immediately convinced, and said, "Nature is enough." ”
As he spoke, he got up from his seat and bowed to Bai Tingxuan: "Don't blame the real person, Fang Cai has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai." ”
Bai Tingxuan hurriedly stood up and saluted: "You don't need to mind. ”
With the protection of such a master, Yang Ting breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and the whole person became much more relaxed, he smiled at Sun Ran and said: "Wenchang is a layman, when he heard about life and death at first glance, he lost his temper, don't blame Brother Changqing." ”
Sun Ran smiled and nodded, feeling that this Yang Ting was still good with his bearing, and there were few players who could come up with a lot of money to become a big VIP, and sure enough, few were mediocre.
After arranging the protection of Yang Tingyong, Sun Ran completed the first priority of this commission, so he prepared the second thing: eliminating demons.
Before he could say it, Yang Tingyong had already put it forward first: "Brother Changqing, I don't know what your plan is to get rid of the demon?" ”
Sun Ran said: "Naturally, it is a water monster first, and a pig demon later." The water monster controls the Wensu River and controls the source of irrigation in a county, which is equivalent to choking the luck of a county, and should be eliminated as soon as possible. ”
If this water monster floods the fields and causes no harvest, Yang Ting will not have to do it with this official, not to mention losing the official, it is a blessing to invite heaven not to be asked.
Yang Tingyong thought deeply and nodded: "What Brother Changqing thinks about, I will fully cooperate." ”
By this time, the heat was almost over, and Sun Ran made a request.
"Brother Wenchang, I repelled the ghosts here last night. He will go and tell the water monster and the pig demon, and the monster will come to test the truth. The water monster is close to the riverside county, if you come to tempt, it must be the water monster first, and I will get rid of it in one fell swoop. However, I am afraid that I will cause chaos in the Wensu River, and my lord should send people to evacuate the people along the coast as soon as possible, so as not to harm the innocent. ”
At this time, his demeanor was still indifferent, but his words already carried the breath of blood and fire, and the subconscious meaning was: I am going to kill the demon, and the movement may be very large, but no matter what, it will never fail, and the result can only be that the monster is beheaded.
Because of the monster matter, Yang Tingyong has already seen a lot of demon slayers, and the orderers have also come several times, but those Taoist priests have always been cautious, and no one has ever had such a confident demeanor.
With majestic Dao power in his hands, he has a transcendent posture, this is definitely a big master!
For a while, Yang Tingyong's mood was also agitated, and he said solemnly: "Since this is the case, I will thank Brother Changqing on behalf of the people of Hebian County." ”
He felt that even if this Taoist priest couldn't get rid of the monsters, he would definitely do his best, and it would be boring to punish the crime or something.
He turned his head to the official under the corridor and said, "Did you hear what the Taoist chief said?" Why don't you evacuate the people?! ”
The officials rushed to carry out the order.
Unexpectedly, not long after the officials ran out, another person ran in with a lot of urine and, shouting as he ran: "My lord, it's not good, the Wenxu River is rising...... The water is rising! ”
It was the official who ran in, and he was incoherent and panicked.
Yang Ting was shocked in his heart, his whole body was trembling, and he turned his head to look at Sun Ran.
Sun Ran smiled slightly and said, "It's just right to come, I'll meet him." He turned his head to Bai Tingxuan and said, "Senior sister, you protect the safety of adults." ”
Bai Tingxuan nodded.
Sun Ran used the spell wind bridge, jumped into the air, and a strong wind blew, sending Sun Ran into the sky and flying in the direction of the Wenxu River.
Yang Tingyong was taken aback when he saw Sun Ran flying on the spot, and couldn't help but think: This Taoist priest can still resist the wind, it is really extraordinary.
He was concerned about the safety of the county, and he was also a little curious about Sun Ran's demon subjugation methods, so he said to Bai Tingxuan: "Dao Chief, I intend to go to the city tower to watch the battle, how about it?" ”
Bai Tingxuan was also a little worried about Sun Ran, and nodded when she heard this: "Okay." Adults first, please. ”
