In the southwestern border of the kingdom of God, there is a county called Dragon County, which is considered to be the edge of the divine capital, and it is said to be the edge, but for those who are close to the central imperial capital, this is the land of barbarians.

There are eight states and counties in the Divine Capital, and there is also one capital, which is the entire size of the Divine Landing Kingdom.

Dragon County is one of the counties called Baizhou County, and together with the other ten counties, it forms Baizhou.

There are many woodlands in Longxian County, a bit similar to the barbarians, there are not too many ordinary people gathered here, and because of the special location in the field, there are not many contacts with other counties, so Longxian County is regarded as a place outside the country, there can be no Confucianism here, the folk customs are extremely strong, killing people and goods, chickens and dogs are thieves, there are often them, it is a typical place where etiquette and music collapse, and there is not much heaven and earth Yuan power, so even the people of the Tao are not willing to stay, so this is not a place where the earth spirit is outstanding.

In short, this place is a little worse than the barbarians, and it has a fight with the Wu Clan's northern land, but fortunately, this place belongs to the Divine Landing Country, and some people in the imperial capital of the Divine Landing Country will occasionally stay here for a while, just because this was once a branch gathering place of the prosperous White Witch Land, but later the White Witch Clan's bloodline gradually thinned out, and intermarried with the people of Dongsheng, so after many years, the White Witch lost its roots, and was replaced by a mundane place where a group of people who could not practice gathered.

During the Warring States period, it was even more slaughtered, and then it became sparsely populated.

Baizhou, that's how it came about, but it has nothing to do with the former White Witch.

Although Long County is a county, there are less than 500 households, which is not good, and Mr. Zhang, who is the head of a county, is frowning and has not been able to eat for several days.

"It's not good, this is very bad, the county keeper warned me, if I can't defend these five hundred households, Long County will be banned...... Oh, I'm going to die!"

A middle-aged man was dressed in brocade clothes, and there was a majesty on his body, but there was sorrow between his eyebrows, and it never dissipated.

"Master, why are you bothered, don't do the position of the lord of this county, Longxian is a barbarian land, let's pack up and go back to the imperial capital...... A woman appeared, gently massaging the head of the middle-aged man, the man's expression was slightly softened, and his fatigue was slightly less.

"I also know what you said, but after all, I was expelled from the house, and now I am gone, I am afraid that I will not be able to ......enter the quota of the Tai Academy."

The man's words were obviously a little unwilling.

The woman said: "What is there to go to the Tai Academy, sir, if you can't practice, just give up, there is nothing wrong with being an ordinary person." ”

The man hesitated for a moment before saying: "I also know what Madame said, but our Ming'er has a special physique, and those people in the clan have never been able to tolerate him, I want to leave this Taixue quota to him, as long as I am still in office for three years, Taixue will give the old man a quota......"

After hearing this, the woman sighed lightly, and then said angrily: "It's all strange that those old fools and cultivators in the clan have to be involved in Ming'er, and let Ming'er be separated from us, for the past sixteen years, we haven't seen each other!"

The man said: "Ming'er has a special physique, is a natural broom star, back then we let us leave our hometown, and after arriving in Longxian, it made our husband and wife unlucky, first beaten by ignorant villagers, and then the house was hit by fire, and then the little daughter was killed in, madam, you say, isn't this a broom star?"

When the woman heard this, there was some anger in her eyes, but after a while, the anger dissipated, but her heart was extremely sad, these are all facts, and she also found out that the situation of her child is just ...... After all, it's his own son.

"Perhaps...... Fortunately, the old Taoist priest appeared, saying that there was a way to cure this bad luck, but why did we have to not see him for sixteen years?"

The man was also strange, and muttered: "The time is about the same, so let's do it, it will be the birthday of the lady in ten days, take the child back, I hope this child doesn't blame us!"

Madame frowned, but shook her head, "It is said that parents are the child's heaven and the child's land, but we have become the affectionate people, what is the difference between the human trafficker?"

Seeing this, the man gently patted the woman's shoulder, sighed lightly, and stopped talking, full of bitterness, and then frowned, but someone beat the drum and shouted grievances.

"What knock, every day is a matter of chicken feather fragments......" The man was dissatisfied, with anger, but there was official authority.

The woman wiped the corners of her eyes and said with relief: "Go, it is estimated that the Chen family's chickens ate the rice of the Li family and laid eggs in the Li family, and the two families have a lawsuit, and I just heard someone in the vegetable market street that they are going to file a lawsuit......

The woman has a good temper, and when the man sees this, his eyes are full of sadness, and he is a young master of a big family, and he actually came to this ghost place to be the master of this bird county, and he is aggrieved when he thinks about it.

"That's it...... This bird officer, you still have to do it!"

The man put on his official uniform under the service of the maid, and then strode away.

The woman beckoned, and a man with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks appeared.

The man was about twenty years old, but he looked like a thief, but the woman smiled and said to the man: "Good brother, you can send someone to find your nephew back......

This man was actually the woman's younger brother, but the two looked exactly the same.

"Good sister, I'll do this myself, I don't ...... worry about the next person."

The man paused, and then said: "You should have listened to my advice back then, this child is flesh and blood, how can you be willing to give up, cheap that old Taoist priest for nothing, sister, you also send him silver taels every month, which is equivalent to raising an old man outside......"

Before the man could finish speaking, the woman slapped him on the head, but with little force. Then he put his hand on his forehead, crying and laughing: "This is what your brother-in-law meant, you don't want to talk nonsense, if you let people hear, you may chew the root of your tongue." ”

"Yes, yes...... It's the younger brother who is not good, and the sister spared the younger brother this time. The man raised his palm and slapped his mouth, but he didn't make a sound at all, and he was purely pretentious.

But the woman was amused and said, "Go......"

The man nodded, then slowly turned around to leave.

Seeing this, the woman seemed to think of something, so she shook her head and said: "Go to the account room and take five hundred taels of gold, one hundred taels to the old Taoist, which is considered the incense and candle money we donated, two hundred taels to the poor people under the abbot's mountain, and the remaining two hundred taels, you keep one hundred taels to eat, and the rest to do a ritual, the old Taoist dove occupies the magpie's nest and occupies the temple, which is already a big inappropriate, it is considered to give those dead souls some rest, give them excess, they have saved countless people, but they can't save themselves, in fact, they shouldn't!"

When the man heard this, his footsteps immediately stopped, and then he showed ecstasy, and said, "Sister is merciful, it is really Guanyin who is alive!"

The woman shook her head and said, "Don't mess around, your brother-in-law and I don't like this!"

When the man heard this, he nodded again and again, and said, "We practice Confucianism, we are scholars, and we don't sit in meditation if we don't become Taoists!"

Then, the man quickly left.

As soon as the man left the mansion, he immediately changed his appearance, straightened his waist, and then said to a subordinate: "Do you know where there are good horses?"

The subordinate rolled his eyes and said, "There are good horses in the palace, I heard that it is a red dragon horse, master, why don't we take it?"

The man slapped the person hard and said angrily: "Don't think I don't know your dirty thoughts, I asked you where you have a good horse, not for you to do something to destroy your family!"

The subordinate was trembling, and immediately said: "There are good horses in Dongshi, I heard that they are horses from Baihe Country, and they travel thousands of miles a day!"

"Traveling thousands of miles in a day? Wouldn't that become a god horse, the lily country is just a little more abundant in water and grass, and it would be good for horses to travel a hundred miles a day, you go...... Fifty taels of silver to buy two horses, by the way, take fifty taels and buy a set of frames, canopies, flower umbrellas, horse lanterns, the same lot!"

When the subordinate heard this, he said distressedly: "Master, this horse will cost at least fifty taels of gold, which is ten times worse, I'm afraid I can't buy it!"

The man said: "This is your problem, after the matter is completed, there will be your benefit, I see that Xiaoqiu's girl has been getting close to Wang San recently......"

When the subordinate heard this, he immediately said, "Master, don't worry, this matter is all right." ”

The man said: "Okay, very good, the consciousness is very high, so let's talk to my wife, Xiaoqiu should also get married, I think you are very good!"

"Thank you, uncle!" the names of the subordinates have changed.

Then it turned into a puff of wind and disappeared.

The man left, and then walked towards the county office, but when he heard a loud noise, the man stopped, and the man heard that the loud noise was made by the shocking wood, so he muttered: "It's so majestic, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and I don't know why my brother-in-law and sister want to leave here......

However, he didn't enter the county government either, his identity was not very suitable, and then he went into his courtyard, took the sword, then packed it up, and took out two rune papers from under the bed, and said to himself: "My nephew has some evil spirit, I still take it as good as warding off evil spirits, although the old Taoist priest is greedy for money, but his ability is not small, what he said will not be wrong." ”

After a while, he heard the neighing of horses outside the door, and the man also went out, but when he saw the frame drawn by four tall horses in the courtyard, he was dumbfounded, and there were two canopies on the frame, one in front and one in the back, and there were six horse lanterns, eight flower umbrellas, and a stove and incense burner in the carriage.

He couldn't help nodding again and again, and then directly threw out his waist bag, and said, "You kid is very capable, this is ten taels of silver, go buy new clothes, marry Xiaoqiu, Xiaoqiu is yours tonight, sister, I'll come back for you." ”

The subordinate hurriedly kowtowed, but the man ignored it, and drove away directly, leaving alone.

And in the boundary of five hundred miles away, there is a low mountain, there is a temple on the low mountain, there is an old monk in the temple, and a few small monks, but later the old monk and the little monk wanted to turn a group of robbing bandits, but they were all hacked to death by the bandits, and then left this temple.

The temple is a red dust temple, but now it has become a red dust view, because sixteen years ago came a sloppy Taoist priest, the Taoist priest saw that there was no one here to live, but he also thought of the good monks, so that he had a place to stay, so he kept the "red dust" two sons.

However, the temple has become a spectacle, as a way to show that the place has changed hands.

At this time, in front of the temple in the temple, the Taoist priest is not calling for "the sky to open his eyes"!

In front of the Taoist priest was a young man covered with scars, covered with a white scroll, and nothing else.

Of course, there are other things, such as the purple gourd behind the old Taoist, but it was occupied by the Taoist priest at this time.

The Taoist priest took off the purple gourd, poured a mouthful of turbid wine from the mountain into his mouth, and then said: "Open your eyes, otherwise the old Taoist will have to go away, otherwise you will be sprayed to death by your father!"

After that, he glanced at the young man and said, "I have to heal your injuries...... It's just that providence is like this, and there are two people who are born in general...... Strange, but you're younger, aren't you twins? Why else are you sixteen years old, but why do you look eleven or twelve?"

The old Taoist priest was very sloppy, his clothes were tattered, but his eyes were very vigorous, and he patted a tattered waist bag on his waist, and some dead grass flew out of the waist bag.

The old Taoist priest was reluctant, "Good thing, this thing is enough for me to break through the spirit realm!"

"That's it, just take it as compensation, after all, if you die, your parents will be sad, but fortunately, there is such an identical person, which can be regarded as filial piety for you!"

The old Taoist priest muttered to himself, then put the withered grass into a pot, and then lightly mashed it.

However, during this process, the old Taoist priest looked at a corner of the temple from time to time, where there was a figure lying in tatters, looking at its side, it was the same as the person lying in the temple.

They are all scarred, the only difference is that one person still has breath to wander, and the other person has a soul scattered!

One of them is Mu Ming, and the other is Zhang Ming, who is also the biological son of the Lord of Long County, but at this time, his soul is gone!

The old Taoist priest smeared some grass and wood debris from the medicine jar on Mu Ming's body, then walked to the corner, picked up the figure, and then walked out of the Taoist temple, came to the back mountain, put down the figure, and then began to dig the pit himself.

The old Taoist priest didn't say a word, but the old tears were all over the place, and finally he cried loudly, "Don't blame me, I found you back then, I was really uneasy and kind, just to take your evil qi to cultivate, but if you don't go with me, your parents must be unlucky, and you will be killed alive, if I didn't let you practice, I'm afraid you would have died early, although I also died now, but I lived a few more years!"

"Don't blame me, it's not that I let you not see your parents, it's not that they don't see you ruthlessly, but your health is really bad, the dozens of families under the mountain have been harmed by you, you can be considered to have lived enough, if you want to blame God, why let you have this catastrophe body, this is a broom star spirit body, it's a pity, your people don't want to see you, for fear of being harmed by you, if you want to blame them, they are all scum, they read so many sage books in vain, and they are doing dirty things!"

The old Taoist priest wiped away his tears, then laughed again, poured out the wine from the gourd and poured it to the ground, and said: "These grandmothers have nothing else to do, but they have become drunkards, and the gold and silver sent by your parents have been drunk by our grandfathers, and they can't afford to wear new clothes...... Like two beggars!"

After laughing for a moment, he suddenly fell silent, and then placed the wine gourd on the boy's chest.

"Someone replaced you, I don't know if it is a providence in the dark, but I know that he has replaced your identity, so I should repay you something, this gourd is his, so give it to you now, and the right should be a transaction!"

The old Taoist priest put the young man in the dirt pit and looked at the young man for a long time, and then gritted his teeth and quickly buried it.

"Don't blame me, I don't even have a tombstone...... Be a lonely ghost, just like me, on this broken mountain, let's be a companion!"

The old Taoist priest sat beside the mound and began to talk to himself, like a madman, who did not know who to speak.

For the next few days, the old Taoist priest would appear here every day, and then he kept talking to himself until Mu Ming woke up, and the old Taoist priest moved an old tree and used a spell to make the old tree take root on the mound.

"It's your tombstone!"

After the old Taoist priest finished speaking, he left, and then slapped his head with a palm, and a wisp of memory shattered.
