"Hey, hey. ”

With a dry laugh, Qi Chen stretched out his short sword, wanting to remove the tip of the spear in front of him, not wanting Tie Lingshuang's wrist to shake off, knock the short sword, and the tip of the spear returned to the center of his eyebrows.

"That, Iron Girl, I'm coming"

Before he finished speaking, a big dog with two eyes of blue light rushed in, barking and rushing straight in, Qi Chen was just about to raise the sword in his hand to block it, but the tip of the spear in front of him was two inches closer.

I had no choice but to watch the big dog hit his chest, one person and one dog, biting together.

After a while, he finally got rid of the big dog, Qi Chen stood up, looked at Tie Lingshuang, who was standing aside with a gun and watching the battle leisurely, sighed, and said helplessly,

"There should be a big snake here, I tracked the scales here. ”

This is strange, this person is very fated to be a monster, chasing snakes from Hangzhou? Tie Lingshuang frowned, took out a fire fold and blew it up, looked up and down at Qi Chen, who was in tattered clothes on his chest, and saw that he actually kicked the book, he couldn't help but sneer, aimed at the bronze brand and smoked ball on his waist, pulled down his face, looked up and saw him with a smug face, and said coldly,

"I didn't see it, Qi Zhutou turned out to be a figure with hands and eyes. ”

Hearing Tie Lingshuang's cold words, Qi Chen bared his teeth and smiled, stretched out his hand and pointed to the ground,

"I was also ordered to come over, don't be angry and look at the ground. ”

It must have been Commander Zuo who sent this person over, it seems that he is the helper that Zhang Tie said, and someone has been following him to Hangzhou Mansion Tie Lingshuang's eyes flickered, and he had to ask carefully when he went back this time, snorted coldly, and looked down at the ground.

"I heard a noise halfway up the mountain, and the one who chased after me kept clicking and stayed outside the cave for a while, and when I came in, there was nothing, and I must have run along the hole. ”

Ignoring Qi Chen, who was chattering around him, Tie Lingshuang frowned slightly, the ground was full of scale armor fragments, and he brought the big yellow dog to chase the smell of scale armor fragments all the way, and when he arrived at the door, he heard a sound inside, so he rushed in directly, but he didn't expect it to be Qi Chen who met in Hangzhou Mansion.

Stretching out his long sword and tapping at the small pool in the middle, Qi Chen glanced at Tie Lingshuang, saw that her face was a little softened, and said softly,

"I don't know if there's a big hole down there, or if it's leading somewhere else. ”

Shaking his head, Tie Lingshuang raised his head and glanced at Qi Chen, shouted rhubarb, turned around and left.

A man and a dog came out of the cave, Qi Chen followed from behind, the sky was gloomy, but it was much better than in the cave, looking at the front Tie Lingshuang walked into the distance without saying a word, looking at the direction, it was Zhong Shan.

is not in a hurry to pull the relationship, Qi Chen followed slowly behind, straightened his clothes, and stuffed the "Dizang Sutra" into his arms again, fortunately it was not scratched by the dog, so it will be left at home in the future.

Shogunate Mountain and Zhongshan Mountain are both in the outer city of Jinling, the inner city of Jinling City is prosperous, crowded with people, and the outer city is a lot empty, with continuous small slopes, overgrown with weeds, and occasionally a few households.

walked all the way, and there were no words, Qi Chen just followed behind Tie Lingshuang, not as good as the big yellow dog at her feet.

There is a small hill in front of it, a small restaurant at the foot of the mountain, a simple two-story building, and a few tables in front of the door, even if it is a private seat.

There is a curtain hanging at the door, with four big characters on it: "Red Mountain Restaurant".

Walking to a table, Tie Lingshuang nodded at the table, and a simple and simple man inside hurriedly ran out, nodding his head,

"Twenty pounds of meat and bones, and five bowls of shredded meat noodles. ”

Raising his hand and throwing a piece of silver to the man with a dull face, seeing that he turned around and entered the room with a happy face, Tie Lingshuang turned his head and looked at Qi Chen, who was sitting at the next table with him.

Although he is big, but fortunately, his internal strength is good, and he doesn't need to overeat like Tie Lingshuang when he eats, Qi Chen smiled embarrassedly, thinking about saving some face for the rice bucket next to him, stood up, ran to the back room and whispered a big bowl of noodles, and returned to the table.

Seeing Tie Lingshuang staring at him with an unkind face, he straightened his waist and smiled,

"Tie Da girl, you threw me at the bottom of the lake, almost drank muddy water to death, I haven't been angry yet, why did you meet each other, as if you have some deep hatred with me. ”

The corners of his mouth curled, Tie Lingshuang glanced at Qi Chen, his eyes flickering,

"Qi Zhutou, you can think about it, you have an uncle and mother at home. ”

The implication is very obvious, Qi Chen is not stupid, he is a head catcher in Hangzhou City, although he will also encounter homicides, but they are nothing more than some rat poison to rob the family wealth, and if he can meet a few hard work, even if he shakes the sieve out of the leopard.

Those three-legged cats don't deserve to lift their shoes, naturally they don't have to worry about life and death, they don't want Tie Lingshuang to enter Hangzhou, the world suddenly opened a corner, and they wandered between life and death a few times, not only did they not fear, but they were overjoyed, and they couldn't bear to always want to find out.

It's rare to be serious, Qi Chen put away his smile, his heart fluttered, and his tiger's eyes shone. After a while, he pulled out his long sword, flicked it lightly, and the clear humming sound echoed for a long time, and he turned his gaze away from the blade and looked sideways at Tie Lingshuang,

"I once heard that when the Yongle Emperor broke through the capital, there were mountain woodcutters who had a full meal and threw themselves into the water to die. ”

Looking at Tie Lingshuang's face suddenly turned blue, his blood was boiling, his eyes were full of murderous intent, and he stared coldly at the desktop, the big yellow dog was hiding far away, Qi Chen said softly,

"My father was just a garrison captain in Hangzhou, the battle of Jingyan, left the team privately, rushed to the aid of Lord Tie Xuan, died in Jinan City, according to the law, our family should be exiled to the frontier as a slave, my father saved the life of the government of the year, these years we can get lucky in Hangzhou Mansion to survive. ”

"I didn't understand at that time, and I hated my father, but recently I vaguely felt that in this world, there is a trace of obsession, a wisp of spirit, and a righteousness, if people are fascinated by this, even life and death, they can't pull it back. ”

"I don't care who sits as the emperor, what fascinates me is the three-foot long sword in my hand. If there are demons and monsters under the sword, it is naturally the best. ”

After that, with a flick of his wrist, he took a sword flower, put the sword into the sheath, and didn't look at Tie Lingshuang, who was murderous, and shouted into the house,

"Boss, where's my face?"

"Come on!"

A simple peasant man, holding a large bowl of noodles in one hand and a large plate of meat and bones in the other. First put the meat and bones on the table in front of Tie Lingshuang, and then put the big bowl of noodles on Qi Chen's table.

Hunched over, whispered to Tie Lingshuang,

"Wait a minute, your noodles will be served immediately. ”

Eating noodles in a daze, seeing Tie Lingshuang staring at the meat and bones with a cold face, his eyes flickered, he didn't know what to think, the big yellow dog was anxiously spinning around, and he didn't dare to scream, just stuck out his tongue, and he flowed all over the ground.

Shaking his head, he swallowed the noodles in his mouth, and asked in a whisper to Tie Lingshuang,

"Strange, aren't you hungry?"

This is naturally a way to find death, Tie Lingshuang closed his eyes and took a deep breath, glanced sideways at Qi Chen, surprisingly did not carry a gun to smash people, glanced at the long sword at his waist, and sneered contemptuously.

Regardless of Qi Chen's flushed face, he picked up a bone and handed it to Rhubarb, who had been shaking his head and tail at the table for a long time, watching it gobble up, the corners of his mouth turned up, and he also picked up a piece of meat and bone, and feasted on it.

Eating is not as good as a dog, and being ridiculed tricky, and then eating the noodles in the bowl, the original authentic fragrance suddenly disappears, and the taste is the same as chewing wax.

After eating the noodles, he asked the store for a pot of boiled water, held the water bowl, watched Tie Lingshuang and the big yellow dog gobble up, solved the meat bones piled up into a small mountain and those large bowls of noodles, and leisurely tasted the flower tea presented by the store, Qi Chen couldn't help asking,

"Don't you go to that cave and guard it?"

Jasmine tea into the abdomen, washed away the greasy, watching the big yellow dog walk to relieve his fullness, Tie Lingshuang's heart was gloomy a lot, and he glanced at Qi Chen,

"No, that is the underground waterway of Jinling, it is recorded in the "Jinling Chronicles", one leads to the Yangtze River outside the city, and the other leads to the belly of Zhongshan Mountain, going to Zhongshan. ”

Baring his teeth and feeling good, Qi Chen knew that even if he reluctantly let himself follow her, he didn't ask, he was stunned for a while, reached out and took out the bronze smoke ball in his arms, shook it vigorously, heard the clanging sound inside, and asked,

"This thing rang twice in front of the hole, what's going on?"

glanced at Qi Chen coldly, the abuser of the bone bird, whipped thirty, it is really unreasonable,

"Zhang Tie, didn't tell you?"

As he spoke, he reached out and took out the smoked ball from his waist, and gently unscrewed the secret door, the bone bird inside should be sleeping, and looked up at Tie Lingshuang slightly, rolled up his wings, and fell asleep again with his little head covered.

So it was, Qi Chen also gently opened the secret door of the smoked ball as usual, and a white light flashed out inside, flew around Qi Chen twice, and landed on top of his head, his small beak kept chiseling, like a woodpecker.

"The first page of the bird department, birds, micro branches, and the first page of the "Mountain and Sea Demon Record" is the method of feeding bone birds, ask him for a copy, and naturally know how to use it. Hmph, the layman is the trouble. ”

As he spoke, he stood up and walked towards Zhong Shan. Qi Chen naturally wouldn't say that he had received the book but threw it to his uncle, and the red light on his face flashed, so he should be shy. Grabbed the bone bird on his head, put it in the bronze smoked ball, nodded and apologized, took out a few copper coins from his arms, and put them on the table, which was very shabby.

As an attendant, don't talk nonsense, the two of them and a dog ran all the way to Zhongshan, passing by Xuanwu Lake on the way, Qi Chen saw the lake rippling from a distance, swaying non-stop, and couldn't help asking,

"That monster, won't swim to the Yangtze River, or hide in this lake?"

Tie Lingshuang, who was walking in front, shook his head, thought about it, and quickly said the matter of Xuan Twenty-three and Wang Long, and at the end, he said for sure,

"The thing with the scale armor should be a snake, about to pass the thunderstorm, to grind off the snake scales, will not go to the Yangtze River, will only drill into Zhongshan, or return to that hole. As for this Xuanwu Lake, there is a big toad, after the Purple Thunder Tribulation, other little demons will not come. ”

Qi Chen opened his mouth wide, like a toad, looking at Xuanwu Lake, there was really a monster who had a thunderstorm, he opened his eyes, and he must visit if he has the opportunity.

Looking at the filial piety tomb from afar, he did not pass, and followed the stone path all the way to Toutuoling.

Sure enough, it is worthy of Toutuoling, the bare Zhongshan braincase, a few long stones in the corner are scattered, horizontal on the side, it is rumored that in ancient times, there was a Toutuo Temple on the top of Zhongshan Mountain, and now there are only these few broken stones, which are used for nostalgia.

After a little hesitation, Qi Chen glanced at Tie Lingshuang who was staring down at the imperial city, and saw that she was murderous again, shook his head, and did not bother, looking around.

At the foot of the western mountains, Xuanwu Lake seems to be shrouded in a cloud of mist, the lake water is as black as ink, and the water vapor on the surface of the lake is steaming, tumbling like waves.

"Well, it's really like a king, and it doesn't look as pleasing to our eyes. ”

Skimming over Xuanwu Lake, looking far away, directly ignoring the Shogunate Mountain, faintly seeing an open river, I don't know how wide it is, only then did I retract my little deplight, nodded, it really deserved to be the Yangtze River, across the land of China, the river is surging, there are countless people who cross the wind and flow, and the natural momentum is majestic.

Tut-tuk admired for a while, walked to the other side, looked eastward, a large avenue in the distance was full of people, swept through the outer city of Xianhe Gate, hidden in the verdant forest, this spread of dark green is also covered with a wisp of water vapor, like a fairyland.

In the distance, the clouds and mist cover it, and it is not clear to see, and it is vaguely a mountain peak, which should be the Qixia Immortal Mountain full of maple forests.

Retracted his gaze, looked down, at the foot of the mountain in the east, a corner of the attic flashed out of the forest, knowing that it was the Linggu Heart Temple, Qi Chen thought of the death of Xuanwei Twenty-three that he had just learned, touched the hilt of the sword on his waist, no longer delayed time, and walked to Tie Lingshuang, who bowed his head and pondered,

"Shall we go to Lingguxin Temple next? or will we hunt demons in the mountains?"

Retracting his thoughts, he raised the spear in his hand, pointed down from afar, and looked at Qi Chen's eyes staring at the tip of the gun, Tie Lingshuang said softly,

"There is a small mountain spring along the mountain path, and the entrance of the cave next to the spring is connected to the cave of the shogunate mountain, you are guarding by the spring, don't go in. ”

Along the tip of the gun, Qi Chen looked down, on the north side of Toutuoling, along the grass and trees on the side of the mountain, all the way down, the foot of the mountain suddenly lowered, and a small hill randomly rose, between the two mountains, there was a small and a small spring.

Nodding, Qi Chen patted the long sword on his waist, and was about to turn around and go down the mountain, after a pause, he asked,

"What about you?"

Feather eyebrows raised, phoenix eyes flashed with cold light, the corners of Tie Lingshuang's mouth were slightly upturned, patted the rhubarb beside him, pointed to Linggu Heart Temple from afar, and shouted softly,

"Go to the mountains and forests over there and play by yourself. ”

Looking at the rhubarb and rushing all the way in the direction of the Linggu Heart Temple in the east, Tie Lingshuang turned around and swept down the camel ridge from the south side, and a cold voice came,

"I'll go to the belly of the mountain and drive it out!"

Speechlessly, looking at the murderous figure that disappeared into the forest, Qi Chen, who had become a person who was waiting for the rabbit, breathed deeply, his inner breath was churning, and the tiger's eyes were also glowing with cold light, and he rushed towards the mountain col on the north side.
