Chapter 138: Sure enough
readx; Early in the morning, the sunlight reflected in the room, and Ning Caichen, who had a good night's sleep, woke up, rubbed his eyes, got up from the floor, and pushed the door out. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
In the courtyard outside the door, Han Lie was holding half a Taoist book and reading it, and when he saw him come out, he put down the book.
Pointing to the fire beside him that was emitting embers, Han Lie smiled and said, "Little Brother Ning is awake, there are still some leftover food from last night, which has not yet cooled down, if you are hungry, take it to fill your stomach first." ā
Hearing this, Ning Caichen remembered the appearance of his gobbling up last night, and he felt a little embarrassed, and he couldn't help but smile.
Chao Han Lie bowed, and Ning Caichen thanked: "Thank you for your care, I am grateful, I don't know what Mr. plans to do today?" ā
Han Lie put away the Taoist book, glanced up at him, and asked rhetorically: "Well, the environment here is quiet, there are a lot of beautiful scenery, I want to stay for a few more nights, what does the little brother have to say?" ā
Ning Caichen hurriedly waved his hand and said: "How dare I see the teaching, it's just that I sorted out the account books last night, and I want to go to Guobei County to collect the accounts again, or I can succeed, thinking that I can invite my husband to have a meal and talk about it." ā
Han Lie shook his head, amused in his heart, and thought: "This scholar is not as stupid as he seems on the surface, he is even very good at making fake accounts, no wonder he knows how to be flexible and can live under the merchant family." ā
Confucianism has the so-called everything is inferior, only the words of high reading, and the people who study must nominate high schools and dedicate themselves to the court as the highest goal.
Many scholars are quite contemptuous of other industries, and Ning Caichen is willing to put down his body, be employed by a businessman, and run this so-called "cheap business", which is indeed not a sour and rotten generation.
This made Han Lie even more appreciative, and he smiled: "You're welcome, but the rivers and lakes are just in emergency, and I can't thank you." ā
After a pause, Han Lie patted the Taoist book on his hand again, and said, "Little brother is going by himself, there is no need to worry about it, I will wait if I have fate." Maybe you can see you again, and it's not too late to feast me again. ā
Ning Caichen saw Han Lie's sincere words, his expression was indifferent, and he knew that he really didn't care much. In addition, he still had some doubts about whether he could collect the debts smoothly this time, so he didn't force it.
After thinking about it, he ran back to the wing room and got a pen and paper. replied: "Mr. has already decided, then in the next will not be repeated, in the next family to live in Hangzhou, if Mr. he comes one day, please visit." ā
After that, he wrote down an address with a pen and handed it to Han Lie, who glanced at it, took it with a smile, and glanced at it casually. And then put it in your arms.
Han Lie arched his hand and said: "Good, fate comes and goes, as the so-called confidant in the sea, if the end of the world is next to each other, the little brother will go by himself, he will see you again when he is weak, and I will bother me." ā
Ning Caichen nodded, picked up the basket, learned Han Lie's movements, and said goodbye to him.
He then felt a little hungry. Bent down and picked up half of the wolf's leg from the ground, and then walked out, and the moment he stepped out of the temple gate, Ning Caichen felt a sense of loss in his heart.
Looking back at Lanruo Temple with some confusion. Ning Caichen couldn't help but feel inexplicable, then shrugged his shoulders, smiled, turned around and walked away quickly, disappearing into the mist and morning frost.
After seeing Ning Caichen leave, Han Lie sat back in the courtyard. After taking out the Taoist book, he had to continue to study, and after reading through it last night, Han Lie gained a lot.
Now he was the only one left, and those female ghosts couldn't haunt during the day, so it was just right for him to try something with what was written above.
In this half of the Taoist book, there is no record of the Qi refining cultivation method that Han Lie is looking forward to, but there are some methods to control the enemy, mainly based on talismans, and most of them talk about the means of restraining demons and monsters.
The content of it was torn out should be the second half of the book, and based on the last few pages, it is speculated that it may be some strange spell.
In this regard, Han Lie was a little disappointed, he was not short of spells, and there were still many contents on the spell secret scroll that he had obtained from the world of gods and ghosts, and he had not fully understood it.
What he longed for now was the legendary cultivation method that pointed directly at the Great Dao, and the Five Elements Qi Refining Method taught by Qin Shi Huang was now in a state of calm, and Han Lie was still unable to complete the breakthrough.
Although Han Lie's strength increased greatly after obtaining the two gems, it was only an increase in strength, and what he longed for more was the sublimation of the essence of life.
Therefore, since he had come to this Xianxia world, Han Lie naturally hoped to find the direction of his breakthrough from other paths.
They all belong to the Eastern way of cultivation, although they are different worlds, there should be something in common, which can be used as a reference, or can help him comprehend, so that he can break through the current bottleneck.
Therefore, the value of this half of the Taoist book is not too great for him, it can be described as chicken ribs, and it is a pity to abandon it if it is tasteless.
But it's also said that the real cultivation method, how can it be bought casually in a small county town for a few gold leaves?
If even the matter of bad luck could fall on Han Lie's head, he wouldn't have to work so hard to shuttle through various worlds, just lie on the bed and wait for the pie to drop and hit his head every day.
I still have to catch up with Yan Chixia, and the Zhiqiu Yiye who appeared in the second part, he claims to be a Kunlun sect monk, so in this world, there must be a Xianxia sect.
Thinking so, Han Lie immediately took action, he remembered that in the original story, the time when the second part of the plot took place was actually not too far from the first part, and he had to put in some effort and get ready.
Moreover, until now, he has been immersed in intervening in the classic plot in his memory, and his understanding of the world is still insufficient, which is quite undeserved.
Putting away the Dao book, Han Lie waved it lightly, extinguished the ashes of the bonfire, glanced at Lanruo Temple, and said in his heart: "If there is no accident, Yan Chixia should still come back here." ā
In the original story, Yan Chixia hid in Lanruo Temple, in addition to avoiding the grievances of the rivers and lakes, more importantly, it was to guard the demons here and prevent them from killing good people passing by at will.
Although they are noncommittal about their criteria for judging good and bad, thinking that with Yan Chixia's character, the monster has not been solved, and it should not be irresponsibly gone.
Yan Chixia didn't return for a long time, probably because she was entangled by the Xiahou swordsman, but with his means, the Xiahou swordsman was definitely not an opponent.
After thinking about it for a while, Han Lie swept away the dust on the ground, gently swiped his toes, and wrote a few words on the stone bricks: "Yan Daxia, I am very happy to meet this time, if you see this, wait for me to return." ā
The words are three inches deep, and they are extremely clear, as long as Yan Chixia returns here. I'm sure I'll be able to see his message for the first time.
Go to Guobei County first, come back tonight, completely subdue the female ghost Xiaoqian, and then find a chance to see if you can find the traces of the tree demon. and where its nest is.
With such a quick plan in his mind, Han Lie didn't delay any longer, broke through the space, and left directly.
Shortly after he disappeared, a figure quickly burst through the air from a distance. Falling into the courtyard, it was Yan Chixia, and he saw the inscription on the floor tiles at a glance.
Rubbing the beard on her chin, Yan Chixia muttered to herself, "Loose cultivation Han Lie...... Well, how come you've never heard of his name? Looks like a hermit who popped out of nowhere......"
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
At this time, although the situation is unstable and the government and the opposition are turbulent, the world has not completely entered the troubled times, and the ruling dynasty still maintains its rule.
Therefore. Han Lie didn't run around, but came directly to the county government of Guobei County.
A few jumped up and down, quietly entered the back hall of the county office, swept the staggered, and easily found the main house of Guobei County Order.
In Han Lie's perception, there were two breaths in the house, and when he pushed the door in, what he saw was two white flesh balls, a man and a woman lying on the bed. Sleep in a hug.
The man has a fat head and big ears, and his face is full of oil, which is naturally the order of Guobei County.
And the woman in his arms is petite and delicate, and she looks good. Between his eyebrows, there was a flattery, perhaps his wife and concubine.
Sure enough, he was a corrupt official and a faint official, and he was about to get on the third pole at this time, and he was still holding a woman in bed.
Looking at the mess in this room, it is obvious that the two of them must have been in a dark situation last night. Only then did he become exhausted and slept to this day.
Walking to the side of the bed, Han Lie caught a glimpse of Guo Beixian's fat body and the pickled things under his crotch, and couldn't help but chuckle, and immediately opened the woman in his arms, lowered his head and patted him on the face.
The cold coolness suddenly woke up the fat county order, he opened his eyes in a daze, and then saw Han Lie's smiling face, and after being stunned, he flicked it violently and shrank back.
Just before he was about to scream in panic, Han Lie waved his hand, and Guo Beixian Ling Dengshi found that he couldn't speak, and he was terrified in his heart.
The woman on the other end also woke up, and subconsciously wanted to scream when she saw this, but she also followed the county order and kept her mouth shut.
Han Lie smiled gently at the two of them, took two steps back, and said, "Two, don't disturb the others, so that I can let you speak, okay?" ā
Staring at him in fear, both the prefectural commander and the woman were so frightened that they didn't dare to move, and nodded vigorously, their eyes full of pleading and horror.
Bowing his head slightly in satisfaction, Han Lie waved his hand, and only then did he untie the shackles on the mouths of the two.
Suddenly feeling able to speak, the county commander glanced at the woman beside him, swallowed hard in fear, and then said cautiously: "This... Hero, what do you command? ā
Han Lie laughed, shook his head and replied: "Parents and masters in person, how dare you have any orders, it's just that there are some trivial things, and you have to ask the county master to help." ā
The county magistrate asked tremblingly, "I don't know what the hero wants me to help with?" ā
Hearing this, the corners of Han Lie's mouth hooked up a weird smile. said: "It's not too troublesome, just borrow the county master's head and look at Haihan." ā
As soon as the words fell, the county magistrate suddenly sat down in fright, leaned back, and trembled all over.
Then he suddenly knelt down to Han Lie, kowtowed like pounding garlic and begged for mercy: "Hero, hero, please don't kill me, there are still a lot of money in the bottom, if you want to take it all, just beg to spare my life!" ā
Han Lie pretended to be surprised and said: "The county master misunderstood, how could I kill you, such a big gift, I really can't bear it, please get up quickly." ā
The county magistrate only thought that this was Han Lie's play, and still begged for mercy, so Han Lie then shouted softly: "Don't kowtow, raise your head." ā
This shouting order made the county order stagnate, shaking his body and slowly raising his head, his facial features were so frightened that they were all huddled together, and his face was full of tears, not human.
A commotion suddenly spread in the air, and Han Lie looked at it, but he was directly scared by this county order, and he couldn't help laughing.
Wordless and sneering, Han Lie no longer teased him, his eyes froze, and the majestic spiritual power immediately submerged it, and in an instant, the county order seemed to be frozen, and he froze there.
Scenes of information flow, turned into pictures, flashed in front of Han Lie's eyes, and all the memories of the county order were not hidden under his prying eyes.
Soon, he swept through the mind of this county order and obtained a part of the situation about this world.
As Han Lie had expected, the background of this world is indeed not any recorded year in Chinese history, but a completely empty dynasty.
Daqing Dynasty, the founding of the country has been more than 100 years, the Zhou dynasty, six generations of emperors, the current Daqing Emperor, reigned for 23 years, the year name Daning, now is Daning 13 years.
This Guobei County is under the jurisdiction of Jinhua Mansion on Jiangsu-Zhejiang Road, and this county commander has been in office for more than three years.
Although he had heard some fairy tales, he did not have any memories of personal experience in his memory, and obviously there was no immortal fate.
Except for some background information, the rest are trivial memories, mainly about corruption and bribery, which are not in the scope of Han Lie's attention.
What he particularly noticed was that this world was indeed linked to the original story plot of the first and second parts.
In the second part, the centipede spirit "Pudu Cihang", who pretended to be a monk, had already ascended to the court at the beginning of the year, and quickly gained the favor of the emperor, and his power rose rapidly, and he was embezzling the fortunes of Daqing.
According to the latest news of this county order, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites named Fu Tianqiu was dismissed from office a month ago because he offended this Pudu Cihang because he issued an admonition to the emperor.
After learning this, Han Lie nodded with satisfaction, the more complex the plot background of this world, the richer the treasure it contains, and the greater the benefits for him.
A moment later, Han Lie regained his strength, and the county order also woke up from his distraction.
But at this time, he was no longer frightened before, but respectfully saluted Han Lie, and said in a deep voice: "What do you want to tell your lord next?" ā
Glancing at the expression of the woman on the other side as if he had seen a ghost, Han Lie chuckled and said, "Go and find the master, I want to know the specific situation of all the prisoners in the county prison." ā
The county commander nodded obediently, climbed out of bed, dressed neatly, turned to leave, and did not look at the woman on the bed again.
Han Lie smiled at her, and before the woman could exclaim, she quickly lost her consciousness like a county order.
After controlling her as well, and then ordering her to fetch water to clean up the room, Han Lie came to the front hall and sat down, quietly waiting for the return of the county order.
Before returning to Lanruo Temple to see Xiaoqian and Yan Chixia, there was another person in Guobei County, who was also worthy of his acquaintance.
It is the mysterious old man who hides in the cell and writes a biography in the second plot - "Zhuge Wolong".
Even Zhiqiu Yiye, who claims to be a monk of the Kunlun School, is an outsider, and he knows the name of this person, so it can be seen that he is definitely not an ordinary person, this world is full of demons and immortals.
Perhaps, this "Zhuge Wolong" is not as simple as it seems on the outside, which is not necessarily.
All in all, since you are here, you will not delay your efforts to see and learn. (To be continued.) )
