There was a "snapping" sound on the roof, and then there was no sound, and the villa calmed down again.
What the? Let me protect Ning Caichen? If you stay with this pit again, you won't even know how you died!
Wang Bo glared at Ning Caichen, his face was cloudy, and when he thought of being tortured by his stupidity, he felt even more palpitations and resentment in his heart.
"Brother Wang, you ...... Why are you looking at me like that? Your eyes are like ...... It seems a little weird. Ning Caichen shrank his head and whispered.
Wang Bo pulled a smile on his face and said, "Hehe, it's nothing." It's not safe here, get out of here first. ”
No way, protect it! Although this pit always drops the chain at critical moments, in order to complete the system task, if there is Ning Caichen, the protagonist who is favored by God, to protect the Dharma by his side, things will always be thrilling in the end. As for the process, huh......
"Yes, yes, this ghost is fierce and ugly, I need to get out of here immediately!" Ning Caichen hurriedly nodded in agreement, quickly packed his luggage, and the two left Zhengqi Villa.
Seeing that the eastern sky was white, the sky gradually brightened. The mountains in the distance slightly exposed their outlines, and in the blink of an eye, thousands of golden lights were like ten thousand arrows, and then a stream of red waves spread from the sky, and the green mountains were full of red light, and the mountains and the sky were connected.
Wang Bo stood on a hillside, looking into the distance, the wonders of the sunrise in the early morning were beautiful, the scenery was charming, and people were intoxicated.
"Brother Wang, let's go quickly, there is a town in front, we have been walking for so long, let's go eat something first."
After walking for more than two hours in a row, Ning Caichen was already tired and out of breath, and after resting for a while, he beckoned Wang Bo to continue his journey.
Wang Bo glanced at the past and thought, "Didn't the ancient scholars have some kind of 'poor sour' title? Seeing this poetic and picturesque beauty of the rising sun, shouldn't you chant a poem or two, sigh and sigh the resentment that Huai Cai has never encountered? Why didn't Ning Caichen, a pit scholar, react at all? ”
But listening to the sound of "grunting" like thunder sounding from Ning Caichen's belly, Wang Bo suddenly woke up: "Oh, I'm so hungry that I can't eat, where can I take care of any scholarly demeanor!" ”
Ning Caichen's face was swollen and red, and he said in extreme embarrassment: "That...... Let's hurry up. ”
The two of them walked a little further and came to a small town, but they saw that the shops and houses on both sides of the street were all closed, and there were few pedestrians on the road.
Wang Bo looked at it strangely and thought to himself: "How come these people are like thieves, could it be that the world has been chaotic to the extent that everyone is in danger?" ”
"Brother Wang, there's a noodle soup seller over there?" Ning Caichen pointed to the distance and said.
Wang Bo looked in the direction and saw a small stall selling noodle soup on the bank of the small river in the street, two or three tables were placed in the open air, very simple, except for the owner standing behind the stall, it was empty and no one ate.
The two walked over, Ning Caichen smelled the fragrant noodle soup, and was about to speak, but he stopped suddenly, turned his head and whispered to Wang Bo: "Brother Wang, that ...... I don't have a lot of silver on me, we ...... Shall we eat something cheap? ”
Wang Bo smiled: "It's okay, you can eat, I have two silver taels!" As soon as the thought moved, a two-finger-wide piece of gold appeared in his hand.
Ning Caichen smiled awkwardly and said, "Then thank you Brother Wang!" Boss, let's have a bowl of mutton noodles! ”
When the stall owner saw Wang Bo showing the gold nugget in his hand, he knew that a big customer was coming, and flattered: "What does this guest officer want?" ”
Wang Bo said: "Just have a bowl of clear soup noodles." ”
Ning Caichen was even more embarrassed, and said hesitantly: "Brother Wang, I'...... I ......"
Wang Bo smiled: "Recently, the food has been relatively greasy, I want to eat something light, Brother Ning, please don't care." ”
Ning Caichen was relieved. The two of them randomly found an empty table and sat down. After a while, the noodles were served. Ning Caichen thought that he was hungry, so he picked up his chopsticks and devoured them for a while.
Wang Bo smiled, didn't care, picked up the chopsticks and was about to eat noodles, but saw Ning Caichen's action of eating noodles suddenly stopped, with noodles in his mouth, looking behind him with horror, and seemed to see nothing that scared him.
Wang Bo subconsciously looked back, and saw that there were five people dressed as officials on the street not far away, looking arrogant, swaggering over, and from time to time reaching out to grab passers-by who walked by and comparing them with a stack of paper portraits in their hands, as if they were looking for criminals.
But listening to Ning Caichen's trembling voice, "Brother Wang, we ...... Let's get out of here, those people will be arrested indiscriminately, and they have captured me in the first place. ”
Wang Bo smiled slightly and said, "What are you afraid of!" Take it easy, knowing that the more you panic, the more they will think you're suspicious. Rest assured, I've got you covered! ”
Seeing this, Ning Caichen couldn't escape without permission, so he had to bury his head and pretend to eat noodles, pricked up his two ears to pay attention to the five officials who were gradually approaching, and immediately smeared oil on the soles of his feet if there was a slight mistake.
Wang Bo looked funny, and thought: "This Ning Caichen is really cowardly enough, I really don't know where he got the courage to dare to collect the account alone!" ”
After a while, the five officials walked by the stall, Ning Caichen glanced back slightly with caution, and then breathed a sigh of relief, this meal really made him frightened, like sitting on pins and needles.
He raised his head, saw Wang Bo looking at him with a smile, smiled embarrassedly, and said, "It's the so-called show that only when he meets a soldier, it is unreasonable. Rude, rude......"
At this moment, there was a burst of music at the end of the street, and Wang Boyun looked into the distance, but saw a group of beautiful women dressed in gorgeous clothes and black sunhats, beating gongs and drums, or blowing trumpets, or holding long-handled Chinese fans, or holding flags, as if the emperor was traveling in two rows.
Wang Bo asked suspiciously, "Brother Ning, who is this?" ”
Ning Caichen looked at it for a while and said, "They are reading the scriptures, they should be monks." ”
"Monk?"
Wang Bo suddenly remembered the biggest boss in the movie, the national teacher centipede essence! Xin said: "This thousand-year-old centipede essence has come?" This goblin is powerful, knowing that Qiu Yiye is not its opponent, he has to find Yan Chixia quickly. ”
After thinking about it, he pretended to be worried, and said, "Seeing these monks, I thought of Brother Zhiqiu, I wonder if he caught the ghost who escaped?" ”
Ning Caichen was stunned, and then worried: "Yes, that ghost is so big, I don't know if he can catch it?" Don't let anything happen! ”
Wang Bo nodded, and suddenly raised his voice: "That's right! Brother Ning, didn't you say that you met a powerful hero in Guobei County? It seems to be called Yan Chixia. Why don't we ask him to come over and help deal with that ghost? ”
Ning Caichen's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Yes, yes, how did I forget Yan Chixia!" He said that he would practice Taoism in Lanruo Temple, and he also said that if I had anything, I could go to Lanruo Temple to find him. Good! We're going to ask him to come over and help catch that ghost! ”
The two of them quickly finished eating the noodles, paid the bill, and left the town and hurried all the way in the direction of Lanruo Temple.
Ning Caichen went back and forth twice, the road was familiar, and he knew that there was a shortcut to go, so he took Wang Bo to copy the trail. When passing a small stream, Ning Caichen shaved off his beard, revealing a face with clear eyebrows.
Seeing the face that was exactly the same as his brother Zhang Guorong, Wang Bo was full of emotion in his heart, and he was even more regretful when he thought of Zhang Guorong's death.
The two climbed over a small hill, suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves in the northeast corner, turned to look, and more than ten horses galloped across the avenue.
Ning Caichen shouted loudly: "Hey, isn't that Miss Qingfeng and Miss Yuechi?" ”
Wang Bo nodded and said, "Well, it's them." I thought to myself: "There are quite a few of them, so they should not have met the officers and soldiers who escorted Fu Tianqiu in Shili Pavilion." ”
After looking at it for a while, Ning Caichen exclaimed: "Ah, it's not good!" They are rushing in the direction of Zhengqi Villa! There's a ghost in the villa, I'm in trouble! Feed! Come back! Come back! Don't go back to the lodge! ”
The distance between the two sides was too far for the shouting to be heard.
Ning Caichen hurriedly said: "Brother Wang, let's go back first and tell them to leave the villa, and then go to find Yan Chixia, right?" ”
Wang Bo smiled bitterly in his heart: "I have changed some movie plots, but I didn't expect that the correction power of this world is too strong, and I still can't hide from it after all!" He had no choice but to say, "It's fine." ”
The two of them walked on only two legs, where could they catch up with the speed of the horse, and after a while, Fu Qingfeng and Fu Yuechi ran away without a trace, only the dust raised after the horse's hooves.
Seeing the sun setting and the night gradually approaching, Ning Caichen became more and more anxious and worried, running continuously all the way, tired and out of breath, he said intermittently: "No, no, I can't run." King...... Brother Wang, please hurry back to the villa first, otherwise, when it gets dark, the ghost will appear again, and they will be in danger at that time. ”
Wang Bo said: "Then what should you do?" ”
"Leave me alone, it's important to save people......"
Wang Bo thought to himself: "Although Ning Caichen is timid and cowardly, his pure heart is sincere and true, perhaps this is also the reason why he has his own natural appearance." He immediately nodded and said, "Okay, then you should be careful yourself." With that, he sped up under his feet, and in a few moments, he disappeared.
Ning Caichen smacked his tongue and muttered to himself: "It turns out that Brother Wang has been slowing down and waiting for me!" ”
Wang Bo went straight all the way, and after about half an hour, he came to the gate of Zhengqi Villa again, and was about to walk in.
"Who? Hold it! ”
But seeing two sword lights stabbing down from above, Wang Bo looked up, did not retreat, but advanced, grabbed it with both hands, and the two cries of pain sounded, and there were two more long swords in his hands.
Wang Bo smiled and said, "I'm Wang Bo, don't hurt your own people." ”
