Chapter 226: The Old Demon of Black Mountain in the Dark
"So, there's only one explanation.." Ning Caichen was a little embarrassed, looking at Yan Chixia who came over, reflecting the night, and felt a little ashamed after seeing the true face of this ghost. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
There is no lack of flesh and skin, and there is no cruel expression of those ghosts.
"He's a human .."
Ning Caichen muttered, looked at Yan Chixia, and was about to apologize, but he didn't expect Yan Chixia to bow down instead, and said to Lord Chen: "In Xia Yan Chixia, I used to be a judge in the Kanto region, and I am fortunate to see Scholar Chen!"
Yan Chixia once served as a judge in 26 provinces.
This is in his memory, more than ten years ago, after Lord Chen saw that he was upright for the people, he wrote a letter of setback.
For this reason, he also went to the imperial capital to thank him.
It was then that he met Chen Peng in his memory.
That's why he can only recognize it now.
It's just that he didn't expect that more than ten years later, Lord Chen, who was in his twenties at the time, still has the same appearance as usual.
But now, this is a small thing in his mind.
"Lord Chen! Now corrupt officials and corrupt officials, traitorous ministers are in charge! ”
Yan Chixia said, her beard trembled, and her heart was a little agitated.
More than ten years later, because of the corrupt officials and the fact that the scholars in his memory seemed to have disappeared, he had no choice but to withdraw from the court and prepare to find a place where no one was to live in seclusion.
Lanruo Temple is the place where he is preparing to live in seclusion.
But he didn't expect to see the bachelor of the dynasty here.
But in the same way, when he saw Chen Peng, he also felt helpless and guilty in his heart.
"Lord Chen doesn't know where to travel, and he doesn't ask the court. After the grass people saw that the corrupt officials were unreasonable, they were also forced to resign from their official positions, hide into the world, and become demon slaying Taoists."
Yan Chixia said, feeling unbearable guilt in her heart, and the more she thought about it, the more unpleasant it became.
"Grass people, I am ashamed of your previous promotion!"
The words fell.
Yan Chixia wanted to worship.
"As an official, you are famous in the world, and you can also take care of ghosts and gods, so what's wrong?"
But when Chen Peng heard it, he waved his hand.
I didn't use any aura, just a normal support.
"Yes, it's the grass people who are reckless!" But after Yan Chixia saw it, she didn't force her to worship again.
Because, in his mind, even if he can forcibly bow down and do a good job, it is disrespectful to the scholars.
"The university scholar is like a sea, but I can't make it! betrayed the grace of a scholar! ”
Yan Chixia thought in her heart, looking at the smiling Chen Dajian, tears almost fell.
He didn't expect that Master Chen would be so amiable.
When he heard about his resignation from his official position, not only did he not punish him, but supported him to do the work of destroying demons and defending the way.
You must know that no matter what world you are in, it is better to be a man than a Taoist, and it is better to be an official than to be an official.
"Doing things for the people of the world is what the people of the world do!"
When Yan Chixia looked at the sword box behind her, she sighed in her heart.
But after Chen Peng helped Yan Chixia up, he didn't have any other thoughts, but saw him lead Ning Caichen behind him to sit next to the fire, looked at Yan Chixia, who was still standing in place and sighed, and said, "I'm here to your place, why don't you treat guests with hospitality?"
"Yes . . . The gift of hospitality, Lord Chen is right! The grass people have done something wrong again! ”
When Yan Chixia heard this, she hurriedly came back to her senses, trotted to the fire, and then roasted the pheasant.
Thereupon.
"It smells so good!"
After a while, between Yan Chixia and the crushed herbs, the fragrance spread again.
Ning Caichen took a sharp breath and understood what had happened.
"It turned out to be herbs.."
After he learned about the cause and effect of the matter, he watched Yan Chixia add all kinds of precious herbs, and he kept looking at the pheasant in a daze, smelling the fragrance that he had never smelled before.
But because of the previous mistake of blaming Yan Chixia, he didn't dare to open his mouth now when he saw the pheasant roasted.
"Boy, eat one?"
But Yan Chixia didn't care about what happened before, but instead tore off a large piece of red shiny chicken, handed it to Ning Caichen and said, "It's very fragrant." Taste it. ”
"This.."
Ning Caichen had an apologetic look on his face, and after swallowing a mouthful of spit, he looked at the oily chicken leg in front of him in a daze.
He wanted to eat it, but his skin was too thin, and he was a little embarrassed because he had blamed Yan Chixia before.
But he didn't, he was so hungry that he hadn't eaten anything for a day.
But you can't have both fish and bear's paws, and you want others not to care, and you want to eat delicious food in your heart, how can there be such a simple thing?
So.
"Boom.." After Ning Caichen swallowed and spat again, he didn't know whether to accept it or not, so he could only look at Chen Peng, hoping that the scholar would give him a way to get the best of both worlds.
"Yan Chixia is honest, he said he didn't care, he didn't care."
But in the calm words, in Ning Caichen's eyes asking for help, Chen Peng waved his hand, and answered his seemingly profound question in this way.
"I.."
When Ning Caichen heard it, he couldn't help but be stunned.
"Yes!" But after Yan Chixia heard Lord Chen's words, her face flashed red, as if she had received a great reward, she laughed and stuffed the chicken leg into Ning Caichen's hand and said, "Eat!"
"Eat.."
When the chicken leg was in his hand and felt the right temperature in his hand, Ning Caichen finally couldn't hold back.
I saw that after he took a big bite, his eyes lit up, and he exclaimed loudly to Yan Chixia: "It's so fragrant.."
Incense is definitely incense.
Yan Chixia added an unknown number of precious herbs to this, all of which were picked from the deep mountains.
This is also why Chen Peng did not see Yan Chixia after coming to Lanruo Temple today.
"He had gone to other mountains to collect herbs."
Chen Peng's thoughts flashed, and he took a bite of the roast chicken handed over by Yan Chixia, and found that it was very fragrant.
In this.
This sumptuous dinner ended in the middle of the night.
After a little decoration in the temple, a layer of straw mats was laid out, and it was easy to move in.
But in the next few days, after Yan Chixia scraped together some money, she wanted Chen Peng to go to the inn in the town to stay.
He was afraid that the yin in Lanruo Temple would be too heavy, and the simple environment would snub Lord Chen.
"Lord Chen, how can you live in this ruined temple with a golden body?" Yan Chixia sighed, hoping that Chen Peng would go down the mountain with him to find a clean house, not like him.
"Yes, Lord Chen, it is windy and rainy here from time to time, what should I do if I get a disease?" Ning Caichen had a sad face, but he had no money and no confidence to speak.
"Nothing."
But Chen Peng didn't care about anything when he heard it, but ignored the words of the two and stayed in the temple.
Don't mention whether he will get sick or not, even if he is sick, it won't be his husband's illness.
So.
Three days later..
"Ahh Ning Caichen rubbed his nose, and when he saw that after a few days, Lord Chen's anger was still the same, and he was still reluctant to go down the mountain, there was no choice but to call Yan Chixia, who was cultivating, to go to the town to buy some clothes and cover, hoping to make Lord Chen more comfortable.
And Chen Peng is here, not for no reason.
He has been staying in Lanruo Temple, in fact, he has been waiting for Nie Xiaoqian and Ning Caichen to meet, wanting to see a scene in the original book.
But time flies, and after half a month, Nie Xiaoqian still didn't appear.
"If the Dryad doesn't send Nie Xiaoqian to come again, this seat will go to the Dryad to propose and ask for guilt.."
In the temple, Chen Peng glanced at Ning Caichen, who was practicing Taoism with Yan Chixia in the open space, and had already made up his mind for this marriage.
Good to know.
Chen Peng hadn't used any spells during this time, nor had he used any Dao techniques.
When he dispelled the ghosts before, he also shielded Fang Yuan with aura, and those departed ghosts were also washed away by him.
"So, I'm just an ordinary person in the impression of the dryad, why don't you send ghosts here to seduce the living?"
Chen Peng thought about it, not knowing what the reason was.
But he didn't know it.
The reason is actually because of the identity that Qianyuan arranged for him...
It's not that the millennium dryad doesn't want to come, but it doesn't dare to come..
―
"Grandma, if I let go of my ghosts and kill the scholars, I'm afraid that those Taoist priests and students will ignore the lives of these mountains and burn grandma and me to ashes with a fire..."
I saw that ten miles away from Lanruo Temple, in the back mountain, a tree demon used a branch to pull the bottles and cans under the roots of the tree, and sighed in his heart.
And he is the thousand-year-old dryad in the original book.
But why he sighed, it was because although he had now reached the broken realm, he had not yet survived the thunder tribulation and become an immortal, and he could not leave his body, nor could he get out of this mountain.
Moreover, his body is wood, and he is also afraid of mortal fire, especially the fire that spreads all over the mountains.
Therefore, he was afraid that after killing Chen Peng, those students and Taoist priests, regardless of karma, set fire to the mountain to avenge the scholars.
"In this way, grandma, I can only be burned alive!"
The dryad was helpless.
I saw that after he showed a human face from his body, when he looked at the bottle and jar under his feet, he suddenly thought of a good idea in his heart!
"Scholar Chen is here now, and the beautiful female ghosts raised by Grandma and I are useless."
After thinking about it, the tree demon looked at the ash altar marked with the words "Nie Xiaoqian", and thought in his heart.
"Then grandma, why don't I use a female ghost to connect with the old demon of Montenegro as a family! You can also have a backer behind you, so that grandma and I can worry about it in the future."
How big demons are in Liaozhai, and the spirits under the immortals are just food for the big demons.
Therefore, he wanted to use Nie Xiaoqian to marry the old demon of Montenegro, so that this big demon who had reached the realm of immortals would be the backer in the future.
"The old demon of Montenegro will definitely protect me from worrying about this mountain."
He did nothing wrong, and in order to survive, he could only do so.
But he didn't know.
The other side.
In the temple, Chen Peng looked at Ning Caichen and was also thinking about the future.
"If, after ten days, this seat will go to propose marriage. If the Millennium Dryad is willing to agree to this family business, I don't mind bringing it up with him."
