Chapter Sixty-Seven: The Twelve,

Drunk and hazy.

Jiang Cang shook his head, sorted out his thoughts, didn't think about it, and went back to the house to sleep.

One night.

I will think about everything I need to think about,

The dead are gone, and the living are like this.

Wait until you wake up the next morning.

The wine is over.

Jiang Cang washed up when he got up, pinched the straw man in his pocket, white clothes, smiling face, Xia is still alive, all are still alive.

Tidy up the snow wolf skin and tuck the corners.

Twin knives are carried on the body.

Go out、Xichengkou。

Along the way, accompanied by the occasional 'bell' of a few bicycles, the shouts of the early rickshaw drivers, and the 'grunt' wheels pressed against the bluestone road.

Jiang Cang passed by a few stalls that had been set up early, took out some copper dollars from his pocket, and bought a few buns to pad his stomach.

The aisle ahead didn't go far.

Jiang Cang walked out of the Xicheng entrance and walked a distance towards the dirt road in front of him, and saw Chen Er standing outside the forest on the edge of the intersection, and there were twelve people standing or sitting next to him chatting around him.

And at this time.

As Jiang Cang walked straight towards everyone.

A man sitting on a big stone with a weed in his mouth, saw Jiang Cang carrying a double knife on the opposite road, so he spit out the grass roots in his mouth and shouted at the people who were chatting and resting at the edge of the forest.

"The person Chen Daochang said seems to be here."

The man's words fell, his body kept sliding, sliding down from the big stone, and without waiting for Chen Er's introduction, he looked at Jiang Cang with a smile and greeted, "Master Jiang, right?" I listened to Daochang Chen. ”

As he spoke, he also pointed to the eight people who came to him, "And two days ago, when I heard Daochang Chen say that he was getting rid of ghosts on my land, I thought that thing was evil, and I specially brought the good hands of the gang to help the fist." ”

When he said this, he tilted his head towards the eight people, "Come, call someone!" ”

"I've seen Master Jiang!" The eight people brought by the Zhou gang leader hugged their fists one after another, with proper manners, wearing clean robes, and a few dry food burdens at hand.

But Jiang Cang saw that they were carrying long knives and short swords behind their backs, and they were reckless and ruthless, and they couldn't hide it.

Let people see, at a glance, these are eight mountain bandits who don't know how many lives they have in their hands!

"This is the Zhou Gang Leader." Chen Er also introduced the identity of the man to Jiang Cang at this time, "The mountain roads of Xilin Mountain are all under the supervision of the Zhou Gang. And the place we went to was under the head of the Zhou gang's cottage. ”

"This is the man of the way to give face! I just said that I was in charge! Gang Master Zhou laughed, "When this is over, Master Jiang will go to my village to eat meat and drink wine!" Enough! ”

"Zhou Gang Master is polite, and a few friends are polite." Jiang Cang hugged his fists and returned the salute one by one, leaving no one behind.

'This man is a practitioner..'

And next to Chen Er, there was a middle-aged man in a practice uniform, who looked ordinary, but he was carrying a long sword.

At this time, he saw Jiang Cang's good manners, words and deeds, and a martial style in his eyes, but he was happy, and walked forward with the two young men, hugged his fists to Jiang Cang and said: "Xingyi, Zheng Xun." They are my apprentices, and they came to follow Chen Daochang to see the world. ”

"Master Jiang." The two young men also carried a bag with torches on their backs.

"Master Zheng." Jiang Cang returned the salute and returned the salute to the other two young men who were clasping their fists to him.

And of the thirty-six who were supposed to come today, twelve came.

The rest of the people may not have that kind of kung fu, or they nod and agree that Chen Er can just mess around in their area, and whether they come to help them or not is another matter.

Anyway, as Jiang Cang chatted with everyone for a while, it was more than ten minutes after the 'eight o'clock that had been said a long time ago', and there were still twelve people including Zhou Gang Master, and the rest of the people really didn't come.

Subsequently.

Chen Er saw that everyone had finished getting to know each other, and the rest of the people hadn't come yet, so he didn't delay, so he walked towards the leading Zhou Gang Master, Master Zheng, and Jiang Cang next to him.

"Everything that needs to be said has been said. Chen Er is grateful to all his friends and masters for coming to help. Let's do that. Let's go? ”

"Please!" Master Zheng and the two young men hugged their fists.

"Let's go." Gang Master Zhou patted the dust on his body, hooked his head and asked the eight people to explore the way in the forest in front of him, and touched whether there were any hunters' traps in front of him, saving him any more delays on the road and delaying the time to get rid of ghosts until the night when the yin qi was heavy.

But walk on the road in the woods. The yellowing leaves of the trees shade the sun.

Nothing to do.

Gang Master Zhou looked around, and then said to Chen Er and Jiang Cang: "Let's go to Linshan today, to be honest, it will delay a lot of effort, no wonder many people didn't come." But since we are here, there are a lot of people. I said, do we make a rule? Ladies and gentlemen, how do you feel? ”

"It's about having a rule." Master Zheng hugged his fists and asked, "I don't know what Gang Master Zhou has?" ”

"Get rid of the ghosts first, that's the right thing. I don't have to say! Gang Master Zhou said first, and when he saw everyone nodding, he smiled again, "But if there is something good in the tomb, should we discuss how to divide it first?" Save the last difficulty, and make it not look good. ”

"There's no rush beforehand. The ghost hasn't been eliminated yet. Especially.." Master Zheng persuaded the mountain bandits, turned his head to look at Chen Er, who didn't speak, and asked with his fists, "Daoist Chen, I want to ask you something." Could it be that the contents of this tomb are not clean? Shall we take it? ”

"No, it won't." Chen Eryi said yes, and returned the salute with a straight face, "Let's get rid of ghosts, it's a good deed." There must be something in the tomb, and that is the reward given to us by God. Whatever happens, we're going to take the same. There is a cause and an effect. Straight. ”

"That's good!" Master Zheng nodded, and then turned his head to look at the mountain bandits, "Gang Master Zhou, just follow the method you said." Except for the ghosts, let's see how to divide them. ”

Master Zheng said, as if joking: "And you have been traveling from south to north for many years, and you have seen more of the market than me in boxing, and you know how things are good and bad, so you have to be fair." Don't let me take what you have and let my brothers laugh when I go back. ”

"Master Zheng!" Gang Master Zhou twitched his cheek, "If you say this, let me be unfair and fair!" Your master is the 'Lin Beishou' of the head of the martial arts department in Lin Province, I am a little horse runner, but I can't afford to offend~"

"A few friends." Chen Er saw that a few people were talking and talking, and they were all about to happen, so he said more, "Let's go out and go, all in order." Now it's a person on a boat, you row here, push there, we can't cross the river? ”

"That's what Daochang Chen said." Gang Leader Zhou smiled, "The ship has sunk, and there is nothing left." ”

Master Zheng hugged his fists and saluted, but he didn't say anything.

Jiang Cang, who has not spoken, saw it, needless to say, when it comes to money, whether it is for face or why, it is difficult to be fair.

Or when everyone said this, Jiang Cang also roughly understood, maybe many people were afraid that there would be something awkward in the final 'uneven division of things', so they didn't come.

Save the last ghost, in case there is any big treasure in it, the wealth is moving, and it is full of martial arts!

It's better to be out of sight, out of mind, and clean.

After all, thirty or forty people, you say a word, I say a word, whoever is awkward, the anger will come up!

In addition, human life is not worth much these days, and the people who can come here are all on the road, and their temper is not very good, so they can't stop it.

And Jiang Cang thought of this, and probably made this matter clear, so he didn't speak, it was useless to say, and finally look at the charter.

Equally.

Gang Master Zhou may have been afraid of Master Zheng's master's 'Lin Beishou', or something, so he didn't say anything more.

In turn, everyone talks about the rest of the trivia, anecdotes from all over the world, such as where there are masters, or where there are strange things.

Wait until noon, close to Lin Mountain, and then rush to the foot of the mountain.

The eight people brought by the Zhou gang leader hunted in the forest, and the people brought by Master Zheng put an earthen pot on the table.

There are dry nests and nests, fat chickens, and rabbits are stewed again, and the noon meal is gone.

Except for waiting for something to happen, there was no drinking.

Everyone was eating with their mouths full of oil, chatting loudly and laughing, tearing the burnt yellow chicken leg in their hands, and they didn't see the anger just now.

Rest for a while after eating.

Around two o'clock in the afternoon.

Chen Er looked at this fan-shaped mountain, and then pointed to the northwest at the foot of the mountain, where the sun was shining all year round, and said with a smile to everyone: "There is a lot of evil qi there, and you don't need to use any feng shui secret methods, you can see it at a glance." ”

"Why didn't I see anything?" Gang Master Zhou squinted his eyes and looked there, but saw that at the foot of the mountain, there were yellow, emerald green weeds, more than half a person tall.

"There is a specialization in the art industry." Chen Er took out a wooden sword from his baggage and looked at Jiang Cang and Master Zheng, "If it's still early today, Yang Qi is heavy. Don't delay, right? ”

"Okay." Master Zheng hugged his fists and asked the two apprentices to follow.

Jiang Cang saw that Gang Leader Zhou and Chen Er were accompanying him later, and he also raised his feet and walked towards the foot of the mountain.

'Rustle'

All the way.

The grass and the birds under the mountains chirp and circl in the sky.

When everyone walked a distance of 100 meters, they came to the foot of the mountain.

Jiang Cang, who could also see the evil qi, looked towards the place where the evil qi floated out, and saw a very secret hole on the side of the mountain, more than half a person high, the edge was uneven and rounded by wind and rain, and there were some gravel on the edge of the grass below, which could prove that this was a hole dug by a person, a robbery hole.

Maybe it was the inauthentic 'Captain Touching Gold' who opened this tomb, and in the end he didn't make up for it, so that the ghosts inside came out.

When Chen Er saw the entrance of this cave, he raised his feet and bent down to walk in, and said to the Zhou Gang Leader: "Zhou Gang Leader is a few masters full of blood, don't be afraid of this evil spirit, follow up, get rid of the ghost early, and you can rush back to eat meat and drink wine before dark." ”

"Let's go." Gang Leader Zhou was not timid, he waved back, led people to light torches, and bent down one by one to walk in.

Master Zheng looked into the cave, and when he saw that Master Jiang, who had not said anything, also walked in, he propped up his torch and took the two apprentices to walk behind the hall.

But with Chen Er, Zhou Gang Leader and others at the front, they walked up to thirty meters.

Jiang Cang, who was still in the passage, saw that their bodies had been coming, as if they had come to a spacious cave.

Step over again, and the fire shines brightly.

With the help of the firelight, Jiang Cang not only felt that it was a little cold here, but also saw that this place was a 'room' about five meters high and an area of more than 100 square meters, and there was a proper passage next to it, which should have been built by repairing the tomb.

The location of oneself should be the 'side room' of this cemetery. ’

Figuratively, it's like the bedroom of a house. But now the house is inhabited by the dead.

And Jiang Cang followed everyone into a few steps, and saw that next to this passage, that is, the door of the bedroom leading to the hall, or the rest of the hall, there were three decomposing corpses, sitting and lying at the entrance of the passage.

There were also a few rusty chisels beside them, and a small wooden compass, but unfortunately it was moldy and could not see what was painted on it.

"It should be the tomb opened by these three people."

Chen Er glanced at them and explained to everyone: "It's just that when I opened the tomb, I thought that I had done enough, and I didn't 'let the wind' go, and I was infected by evil qi." But now that it's safe, these evil spirits are not enough to make us feel typhoid fever, let alone rush to the bones. ”

Chen Er said, also to reassure everyone, and then went to the passage with himself to have a look.

But the two young men brought by Master Zheng, looking at the three rotting corpses at this time, their faces were a little ugly, not as calm as Chen Er.

"It's dead.." The two of them hesitated, a little afraid to go inside.

But apart from these two, no one was afraid.

Especially when the Zhou gang leader looked at the three corpses, he laughed loudly, and his voice echoed,

"I've dealt with all the living warlords with guns, and how many dead people are you afraid of?"

Zhou Gang master's words fell, and the people he brought with him took long knives and 'banged' on the corpses of the three people, and then found something valuable.

I only rummaged through it a few times, but I didn't find anything except a piece of rotten flesh and rotten clothes with black flesh attached to it.

"What a poor ghost, he deserves to rob the tomb and die!" Several mountain bandits scolded, they were not afraid of gods and ghosts at all, and they also looked at the dark passage next to them, with some greed.

And Chen Er, who was next to them, when he saw Master Zheng teaching his apprentice again, and when he saw Gang Master Zhou and the others walking forward without waiting for him, he carried it behind his back with one hand, walked two steps slowly, broke away from everyone, and came to Jiang Cang's side and whispered,

"Master Jiang is also jealous and hateful, and he has the same temperament as me Chen Er, so he can't see the ghosts doing anything, so he will come to the appointment today, right?"

"It's not envy." Jiang Cang first returned the salute and hugged his fists, and then looked at Master Zheng and the others who then set off to help the leader last week, before shaking his head and saying, "Master Chen wants to say that these people are more fierce than the ghosts in the tomb." When the ghost is gone, something is going to happen, right? Not to mention that they have now found a place with the help of Master Chen, but on the contrary, they don't need our help. ”

"No, please, no way." Chen Er motioned to Jiang Cang to walk, "People in these years are all ancestors and chaos in one acre and three points. It's hard to get rid of ghosts. ”

"You're right." Jiang Cang was noncommittal, "It's been a mess these days. Bandits, gangs, martial arts, no one is afraid of anyone, they are all arhats and golden bodies.

When we go out, we have to worship the Bodhisattva on any road. Otherwise, it will be difficult to move an inch. ”

Jiang Cang said this, and smiled again, "In Master Chen's words." This is the way of heaven to cover the eyes. There is no door in the tunnel. It's hard to be humane. But I Jiang Cang has been doing all my life, and what I seek is not heaven, earth, people, ghosts and gods, but justice. As long as justice is there, whether it is a bodhisattva or a ghost, Jiang Cang has his own two knives and one blade to open the way, cutting the thorns in the future, the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth. ”
