Volume 1 Waste Wood on the Road, Ignition and Demon Slaying Chapter 67 Exchanging Life for Money Forehead Mark
Although there are officers and soldiers stationed in Wucheng, but at night the city gate is closed, the officers and soldiers guarding the city will only stay in the city, those beggars can not enter the city, close the city gate and find land everywhere outside the city to sleep, waiting for tomorrow to line up into the city of those people to give them alms, if they meet a master who gives enough silver, pay the city tax, you can enter the city.
Qu Lao Er found the beggars outside the city, the beggars had already fallen asleep in the middle of the night, many of them were curled up in the corners of the city, Qu Lao Er and the two young men took the stick with the thickness of their arms, carefully checked the surrounding situation, and saw an old beggar, curled up on the edge alone.
Qu Lao Er let the two young men drag the old beggar to the carriage with a stick, and rushed back overnight, and when they arrived in their own village, the old beggar had not yet breathed, so he dragged him into the house that had been prepared a long time ago, the house was no different from ordinary people, and the old beggar's clothes were changed, and the clothes prepared by the villagers were changed, and Qu Lao Er strangled him to death with his own hands.
According to what the black-robed man said, the charm was pasted on the old beggar's forehead, and the blood dripped on the finger finger on the charm, and then he came to see it once a day, as the black-robed man said, the soul absorbed every day will appear on the charm, the more absorbed, the lighter the color of the spell will be, and after seven days, the charm fades from black to gray, but where there is less than a day and a half, the black can not be cleaned, and it is known at a glance that the person who passes through the yin and yang can also see the traces of the soul on the charm.
One day, two days, three days... Until the seventh day, the spell faded to gray little by little, holding the gray charm in his hand, Qu Lao Er and a few young men were excited, a complete soul, one hundred taels, digging out the old beggar's heart and one hundred taels, two hundred taels of silver was in hand, it was much easier than digging a grave and dissecting a corpse.
If there is a black-robed person who collects other organs, he can earn an extra thirty or fifty taels, and the other villagers are still the same as before, digging graves when they have the opportunity, and bringing back the woman who has just died, and waiting for the black market to reopen, and some of the yin media want these corpses.
In this way, five or six years have passed in a flash, and Zhufeng Village has also become Zhufeng Town, and the beggars who can't be killed, killed and come from other places, come and kill again, these beggars have simply become the cash cow of Qu Lao Er, changed to Zhufeng Town, after the road is built, occasionally passers-by will pass by, but whenever they seize the opportunity, Qu Lao Er They are also all killed.
Hardly arousing the suspicion of others, the villagers who dug up the graves stole the corpses and buried them in their entirety, without a trace, and no one noticed them.
These shady transactions were made by Qu Lao Er and these villagers who no longer had any humanity, but the black market was like an undercurrent in the sea, and it was impossible to detect it.
It's not that no one in the village is against killing people to take souls, and a villager named Liu Dachang disagrees with Qu Lao'er doing this, it's okay to dig graves, but it's not okay to kill people.
Qu Lao Er is not the character of the previous scolding, there is no argument, overnight Liu Dachang's family of four disappeared without a trace, the villagers know that Liu Dachang's family is afraid of more than auspicious, but the temptation of silver is really big, human nature can not withstand the temptation of silver, since then, the villagers in Zhufeng Town, old and young, have not had a word of objection.
Chen San and his entourage are going to this Zhufeng Town next, this town that exchanges human lives for silver, and they want to know what good results they can have if they go there, but Chen San They don't know the situation in Zhufeng Town, although Yang Chengzi will go down the mountain to various villages to walk around, kill demons and punish evils, but this nearby village and town, Yang Chengzi is also the first time, he has never been here, and he doesn't know what the situation is in Zhufeng Town.
A group of people were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, and they hurriedly sent themselves over towards this Zhufeng Town.
Beixian Village is still thirty or forty miles away from Zhufeng Town, it takes nearly a day to stop and walk, they came out of the village early in the morning, Chen San's soul power has almost recovered, and he can jump and jump as before, Yang Chengzi can be regarded as having a good rest for two nights, and his spirit is much better, plus Zhou Tian's pranayama, the injured soul has basically recovered.
The only slow recovery is the monk who is stabbed by the Shangqing sword, the recovery from the injury is very slow, the injured muscles and bones move for a hundred days, although it seems a bit exaggerated, but it is definitely not recoverable in just over ten days, and now it is able to limp around, and when facing those few evil magicians, the wound is a little torn, or can only lie on the recliner to recuperate.
Sanyu is a girl with sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, she can't be idle, and if she is bored, she has to quarrel with Chen San, Chen Sanzui is stupid and her brain is not as fast as her, and it is common to be deflated, but Chen San doesn't care, on the contrary, she feels that there is Sanyu all the way, which is much better than a few big men hurrying in a muffled voice.
The scenery on this road is much better than those barren places before, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the trees are shady, the sun is almost not exposed to the sun when walking in the woods, it is the coolest part of the road they walked, to the small lake, in addition to Sanyu, even the monks of Sui Chang have gone into the water to feel comfortable, the rush for days, coupled with the hot weather, is really unbearable, it is rare to have such a good opportunity can not be missed.
Sanyu sat boredly by the lake with a dog's tail grass and pouted, watching these big men bathing in the water, of course, mainly watching Yang Chengzi. Now the clothes are thin, and the muscles on the body can be seen clearly after being soaked in water, which is also the reason why Sanyu did not go into the water.
After a few people fluttered for a while, they went ashore, and they didn't take off their clothes, but they did it in the blink of an eye on a hot day.
Walking to the shore, Sanyu looked at Chen San's forehead with a surprised expression, and his eyes widened.
Chen San looked at Sanyu with disgust and touched his face, "You are ugly, I know what you have to say, this time Lao Tzu ignores you, hum." As she spoke, she turned her head arrogantly, brushed her hair, and walked past Sanyu's eyes.
Sanyu didn't reply, Chen San thought he had guessed correctly, and smiled in his heart.
Suddenly, Sanyu said to Yang Chengzi: "Chen San's forehead seems to have red lines, do you want to take a look, is there any problem?" ”
Chen Sanyi sighed in his heart when he heard this, his hand holding his hair also stopped, his face twitched and slowly turned around, Yang Chengzi was also startled, quickly squeezed his clothes dry, walked in front of Chen San in two steps, looked at it carefully, and wiped it twice with his thumb, and sure enough, as Sanyu said, there were really red lines, although it was not very clear, but it could already be seen faintly, like a flame.
Monk Sui Chang also limped over, pulled Chen San's head off, looked at it carefully, and frowned.
This can make Chen San anxious to death, what's wrong with this, why is it himself every time? Looking at the faces of Yang Chengzi and the monk who follows him, he knows that it must be another trouble.
With a hint of luck, he squatted on the edge of the small lake and looked at his face in the water, but a faint red line appeared on his forehead, and he could see faint fluctuations through the water.
With a crying face, he stood up and walked in front of Yang Chengzi and the monk Suichang, "This, this, what is this, it won't be a birthmark, my birthmark is late!"
Chang Yu covered his face and snickered, not really wanting to laugh, Chen San should not be able to laugh in this situation, but Chen San's words San's Chang Yu really didn't hold back.
Yang Chengzi raised his head and covered his eyes with one hand, ignoring Chen San's appearance, and the monk shook his head, "It's a memory, but it doesn't look like a birthmark, it seems to be an imprint." ”
Yang Chengzi also put his hand down, sighed and looked at Chen San helplessly, "If this guess is right, it is the mark of the three-tailed spirit fox, and the soul of the three-tailed spirit fox has stayed in your soul base for too long in order to help your soul suppress the phantom demon, and there has been a situation where the soul is merging." ”
Chen Sanyi swallowed in a daze, "Isn't that the same situation as Sanyu back then?" ”
When Sanyu heard that it was the three-tailed spirit fox, he was also afraid, and that time when life was worse than death seemed to be right in front of him, and his face covering his snickering suddenly became a little stiff.
Yang Chengzi shook his head, "It's a little different, Sanyu only had a wisp of soul entangled with her at that time, you are just the opposite, the entire soul of the three-tailed spirit fox is in your body, so this mark will appear." ”
Suddenly, Chen San seemed to think of something, and suddenly laughed, "It's okay, don't be nervous, when I go back to Chenjiazhen, I'll strip naked and draw a talisman for you, you just help me separate my soul, it's not that you haven't done it, it's not difficult, it's not difficult." ”
Speaking of this, Yang Chengzi didn't react, but Sanyu blushed and turned his head.
Yang Chengzi looked at Chen San expressionlessly, "It may not be possible to separate." ”
In just six words, Chen San was so frightened that he almost knelt on the ground, and his hippie smiling face stiffened.
"Why can't you be separated, didn't she come to you to repay your kindness, you have to help me separate, what is it with the soul of a fox, and my forehead is like a flower, what has become of me, a big man. ”
Yang Chengzi couldn't laugh at all, he was telling the truth, Chen San's situation was fundamentally different from Sanyu's, if the estimate was correct, I am afraid that part of the soul of the three-tailed spirit fox had already melted into Chen San's soul, and there was a spell to divide the soul, but the soul that had been melted into it could not be separated.
Monk Sui Chang also shook his head, "Unless we separate now, there may be a glimmer of hope, but now this phantom demon can never be released, and you must already know the result of releasing it, I'm afraid you have to accept this matter." ”
Chen San was a little confused, there was a flower on his head, but how could he accept the reality, but what the monk said was right, if the phantom demon in the body was released, they would not be able to go back to Chenjiazhen It is another matter, after this phantom demon came out, I don't know how many people will be harmed, which made Chen San feel a sense of guilt, and let the phantom demon go, and those who died after that seemed to have been killed by himself, Chen San could not make this decision.
Thinking of this, Chen San smiled helplessly, and the sound of tearing the strip of cloth came over, Yang Chengzi handed the strip of cloth torn off his body to Chen San, Chen San looked at it for a while, raised his hand to take it, and tied the strip of cloth to his forehead with a smile.
Seeing that Chen San was smiling so fakely, Sanyu had an indescribable feeling that came to his heart, but looking at Chen San's head tied with a strip of cloth, stupid, Sanyu couldn't help laughing again, Chen San waved his hand indifferently, signaled to hurry, and a few people walked up again, passing by the pond with lotus leaves, and picked a big lotus leaf to cover the strip of cloth, which didn't look so funny.
