Chapter 167: Empty City in One Night

Every time he quarreled with Qi Weinan, Fu Chen couldn't talk about her, and after the two of them finished dinner, Fu Chen came to the door of the house alone, sitting on the stone chair in front of the door and looking at the snow white that dotted the night.

The snow in Suiyang City was still falling, but the person who used to sit next to him to watch the snow was not around.

When he looked down at the small city at the bottom of the mountain, there was a sudden "squeak" behind him, and a person walked out of the wooden house.

He didn't look back, but simply by listening with his ears, he could make out who the owner of the footsteps was.

"Why, can you still think of me, an old man? If you don't stay by your little beautiful man all the time, aren't you afraid that my old brothers will sneak over and kill him? ”

Fu Chen picked up the wine gourd at hand, raised his neck and took a few sips, sighing for good wine, but he was snatched by the person behind him when he was not paying attention.

"Master, this wine has to be drunk when it is happy and joyful, and if it is drunk when it is unhappy, it will only increase your troubles and break your liver and intestines." Qi Weinan said as he poured the wine gourd over and spilled the remaining wine inside to the ground.

When Fu Chen saw this, he wanted to take it, but he had to serve the old man, only sighing for his age, and the flexibility of his body was not comparable to that of their young people.

He angrily snatched the empty gourd back into his hand and retorted, "Who told you that you are unhappy as a teacher?" I am very happy for the teacher now! Immediately afterwards, he played a childish temper, "Besides, my pot of wine is a good mash that I can't buy back with money!" But you just poured it for me! ”

Qi Weinan let go and smiled heartily, sat down next to Fu Chen, patted the snow on his body for him, and apologized to him in his heart.

"Master, it's Anan who is wrong, I shouldn't have quarreled with you just now, it's just that Anan can't watch that stupid guy fall into their hands, besides, Master, didn't you teach Anan that the first rule of doing our business is to be responsible for the corpses you drive......"

"Alright, you, don't make excuses for yourself." Fu Chen tilted his head and smiled at her, interrupting her.

He stood up, shook the snow white on his body, and walked to Qi Weinan, because his back was to the moonlight, the expression on his face could not be seen clearly at the moment, but the words he said were extra clear.

"Anan, you're tempted."

Fu Chen's words were obviously very light, but they were like gusts of wind, suddenly blowing out her hidden thoughts.

And her sick heart began to beat rapidly again, as if it would be able to jump out of her chest in the next second.

"Master, teacher, master! You can't talk nonsense! Qi Weinan stroked his restless heart with both hands, and stammered to Fu Chen, "You know me best, so I won't be the one who is stumped by that kind of fleshy children's affection!" ”

Although she spoke firmly, she did not have any confidence, but the further she spoke, the more subtle her voice became.

Fu Chen shook his head with a smile, and did not rush to refute her, but touched the position of his chest with his hand and said, "Anan, the sound of your heartbeat has betrayed you." ”

"No, no! I'm just not feeling well lately, so it seems that it's necessary to go to see Lang Zhong, okay, Master, I'll go back to sleep first. ”

She was like a thief who had been caught by someone, and she was so frightened that she fled, but as soon as she turned around, she was stopped by Fu Chen's shouting.

"Slow down, come back, I still have something to say for the teacher."

"Yesβ€”Master." Qi Weinan replied in a long voice, and the master had to obey the order, so he had to return to him and sit beside him honestly.

"Anan, haven't you always been curious why the people of the Moon Sky Alliance have to kill the half-dead people who have lost the three souls, and I will tell you the reason behind it as a teacher today."

Fu Chen said, his eyes met the silent moon in the sky, as if from it, he had returned to the twenty-five years of the catastrophe in the world.

"Twenty-five years ago, I just arrived in the era of the weak crown, followed the old man Qiongtian, and practiced the art of chasing out corpses, but unexpectedly, that year, a disaster was ushered in."

Recalling the massacre again, Fu Chen only felt the sound of weapons colliding, children crying, and women screaming in his ears again.

It was a scene he would dream of every night, a haze that would linger for the rest of his life.

"I was born in a family of corpse chasers, and I was sent to the door of the old man Qiongtian by my father for as long as I can remember, but I am not excellent in this industry, I am a mediocre disciple in the sect, and I am usually only responsible for the lowest level of corpse chasing, so I have only heard of evil Taoists and the living dead, and I have not really seen it."

Hearing this, Qi Weinan couldn't help but murmur silently in his heart, no wonder he had followed the master for two years, and he only taught me some corpse fur, it turned out that he was not good at learning!

And just when she was stunned, she happened to be caught by Fu Chen, and he gently knocked her head, "Are you saying bad things about Master in your heart!" Don't think you don't know as a teacher! ”

Seeing that he was recognized, Qi Weinan hurriedly smiled and said, "No, no, the apprentice doesn't dare, Master, you continue!" ”

"Forgive me for not having the guts." Fu Chen was amused with her, but in the next second, his eyes dimmed again, and he continued to tell the story after that.

"The first time I saw evil priests and the living dead was on that night hunt twenty-five years ago. This night hunt was originally used to hunt the living dead who rose out of the day and night, and the evil monks who controlled them, but ...... In that night hunt, it was innocent people who died in flesh and blood. ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hands tremblingly, and then clenched his fists tightly, and his tendons burst out.

"All the disciples in the sect who have reached the age of the weak crown have the opportunity to participate in the night hunt. That night hunt, we were carried out under the leadership of the senior brother Qian Shu, and this seemingly ordinary night hunt completely destroyed the beautiful place of Cangyuanye. ”

When it came to Cangyuanye, Qi Weinan's mind was in a trance.

It was a wild place without unnecessary interference, located in the southwest corner of Ningyun Kingdom, because of the vast and sparsely populated land, complex geology, and rugged mountain roads, it was really inconvenient to enter and exit, and it gradually became a forgotten corner.

It was not until the previous lord succeeded him that he began to strengthen the jurisdiction and control of Cangyuanye, but because of the fierce customs of the people and the large number of tribes, in the past few years, the use of strong means to impose management methods has not been effective.

At this time, the national teacher of the dynasty asked the lord of the country for an order in person, saying that he was going to Cangyuan Ye to parade and give lectures, spread moral thoughts, tame the people with culture, and stabilize the Ningyun border.

After thinking about it, the lord of the country felt that this method was appropriate, so he allowed to go. Sure enough, after the national teacher went to Cangyuan Ye to teach and give lectures, the local barbarian culture gradually became more and more civilized, and the ruling order became more and more stable, but with it, there were more and more evil Taoists.

Some people say that it is because the Yin Qi of the Cangyuanye generation is heavy and damp, and it is a natural vessel for raising the living dead; Some people also say that the evil Taoist priests were afraid of the strong mana of the Taoist teacher, so they wanted to take advantage of the fact that when he was out of the palace to give lectures, when the defense around him was meager, they gathered from all over the world to take his life.

Which statement is the truth is not known to future generations.

But none of this is strange, and the most bizarre thing is the incident of the empty city twenty-five years ago.

On that night twenty-five years ago, all the people of Cangyuanye disappeared out of thin air, and even the national teacher could not be found, and everyone seemed to have evaporated overnight.

At this time, it was extremely strange, so strange that it became a matter of secrecy for people, and Qi Weinan only heard a rumor from Mr. Wu'ancheng's storyteller.

It is rumored that there is a Taoist national teacher who teaches Taoism and preaching the law, and the people of Cangyuan Li are all enlightened, and they have become natural overnight, and they ascend to immortality with the national teacher.

But in Fu Chen's explanation later, Qi Weinan finally knew the truth that had been hidden for twenty-five years, and the people of Cangyuan had disappeared overnight.
