Qicheng is the capital of the Western Zhou Dynasty, full of flowers and thriving prosperity. Everyone here is polite, humble and polite, juggling, entertaining, storytelling, singing, drinking, and tea on the street, it is all available, and it is definitely a rare place to relax.

This couldn't help but make Candle Tian curious, and hurriedly asked a passerby: "This is Qicheng, doesn't it mean that after the war, there are now disaster victims everywhere? ”

Passers-by said: "Nonsense, it's been almost 20 years since the end of the war, and the current Qicheng is no longer as good as before, it is prosperous everywhere, where are the disaster victims and rogues, are you sick?" In this way, turn right on West Street, there is the medical clinic of Huang Bo, the most famous doctor in Qicheng, you should be in time now. ”

Candle Tian was still stunned in place, the man glanced at Candle Tian, and said humbly: "Okay, it's your good luck to meet me, this is two taels of silver, even if it's the consultation money of the medical hall, hurry up." If it's too late, Uncle Huang will go out to visit the Black Rat City. ”

Chen Xin looked at the passers-by in the distance and quietly looked at the candle sky. He touched Candle Heaven's forehead with his hand and screamed. "It's not good, the master is possessed by a demon, I have to go to Huang Bo to see what is going on, I can't help it if I go late." ”

The passers-by next to him surrounded him, looked at the candle sky, and said: "Demon possession? This is amazing, in a situation like this, you should go to Dongjie to find Uncle Liu, he is a good hand at exorcising demons and warding off evil spirits." But I see that the two taels of silver in your hand are not enough, so the big guy should help this poor foreigner, and make up some silver, so that he can go to Uncle Liu in time to exorcise evil spirits. ”

After speaking, he had already collected more than a dozen taels of silver, so he stuffed the silver into Candle Tian's hand and said: "Young people will inevitably encounter some strange things when they go out, presumably because they have lost their minds by demons, and they seem to be insane, and they can't even speak. However, don't worry, Uncle Liu's ability is unknown to everyone in Qicheng, and he is a well-known master of exorcism. When you get to him, you're guaranteed to be alive in less than half an hour. ”

Candle Tian woke up and said, "What happened? I figured it out, the "Black Rat City" we encountered was not the real Black Rat City, but was conjured up by the demon clan, have you ever remembered that when the toad spirit died, those villagers shouted from their mouths: "The city lord has no borders." "It seems that they have long expected that the city lord will die, and they just bow down and say goodbye, and those villagers are all toads. ”

After speaking, he looked at Chen Xin and asked for confirmation with his eyes, wanting a positive answer. Chen Xin said: "It seems that you are still really sick, let's go to Uncle Huang first, and then go to Uncle Liu, your disease must be cured." ”

Candle Tian just wanted to pick up his hand and hit Chen Xin's head, but when he raised his hand, the heavy money bag in his hand made Candle Tian suspicious. He said, "What's going on? Where did you get the money, and how much is it?"

Snake right quipped: "Thanks to the love and care of the people of Qicheng, I will give you the silver to see a doctor and take medicine." It seems that you are still really sick, and you have to be cured of this disease. Then he said with Chenxin.

Candle Tian stood in place like a fool and looked up, Chen Xin and Snake Right were already twenty meters away, so he had to shake his head suspiciously, and said: "Forget it, big things and small things, eating is a big thing." ”

The three of them came to a noodle restaurant and devoured six bowls, and the boss who watched said in horror: "Eat slowly, if it's not enough, don't choke." I couldn't help but look back and sigh again: "Poor baby, how long has this been starving, and he is still growing his body at a young age, how should this be?"

Chen Xin looked up at the boss and was about to put down the silver. The boss looked up and hurriedly said, "You are all poor people, how can I take your money, or keep it and buy some beautiful clothes, and don't let the soldiers defending the city take you to that place." ”

Chen Xin looked at the clothes on his body, they were only a little dirty, and couldn't help muttering: "It's all to blame on the people of the Black Rat City, throwing mud and throwing clods, can the clothes not be dirty? After throwing the clods of soil and stones, can the clothes not be broken? Can you blame me? The conscience of heaven and earth." God, save me. ”

Candle Tian handed over a tael of silver and said, "Don't panic, I will save you, and I will buy you clean clothes with this silver." ”

Chen Xin just wanted to hug the candle sky and be coquettish. A few patrolling soldiers came over and said, "You three, come with me, it's been a long time, and it's really pitiful that there are still people dressed like this." ”

The soldier led the three to a barracks and said, "These three men are disheveled and covered with mud, as if they had fled from somewhere. After you have made some careful inquiries, report the details of the matter to the little marquis, and then change into clean clothes, and ask them to take people to see where the disaster happened. Just about to turn around, he saw the appearance of the three of them, and said: "Don't forget, give them some delicious food, and you have to hurry for a while, don't go hungry halfway, it's not easy for the little marquis to blame." ”

The three of them looked at the soldiers, not daring to say a word. Because the snake right used her divine thoughts to tell everyone, she could clearly feel the murderous aura in the barracks, and it seemed that some of the sabers in the Qicheng army had been specially treated and could kill demons and gods.

Chen Xinshen communicated: "Young lady, don't scare us, how can there be a weapon that can kill gods in the mortal world?

The snake right said solemnly: "I can't say for the rest, but the blade on the man's waist just now is definitely not a mortal thing, it seems to be a weapon from the ancient battlefield, and I will never be wrong about the familiar coercion and death aura." ”

Candle Heaven also communicated with the gods: "Could it be that there is also an ancient battlefield in this world that has sunk from the divine realm, it is really terrifying. ”

The snake right communicated and said: "It's not that the ancient battlefield has sunk in the human world, but there may be some blades scattered in the human world, I must destroy all the weapons that may pose a threat to the life of the Protoss here this time, which can be regarded as expressing my loyalty to the Protoss." ”

However, at this moment, the soldier with the sword on his waist came over with several people with buckets, and poured buckets of ice water on the bodies of the three men, and then threw the buckets on the ground and said, "Go over there and fetch water, and wash my face and clothes before coming over, so as not to spoil my precious military uniforms." ”

When the three of them came to the river, they were about to speak, but behind them were three feet, and all the people with wooden barrels rolled into the river. One of them said, "It's all big men, and they're still twisting and pinching, how can they be so delicate, hurry up and wash them and change into their uniforms, and the head of the soldiers will ask questions later?"

The right side of the snake just looks like the right side of the snake, but in fact, it is the left side of the snake, so there is not too much concern, directly wash the body and clothes, and take the lead to the barracks just now, the muddy water on the ground has not completely dried, and there are many potholes where you can still see stagnant water.

By the time Chenxin came in, the snake had already changed his clothes. Just as he was about to ask Chen Xin if he needed to change his clothes and go out to bask in the sun, he stepped on the stagnant water and slipped out of the distance, and his freshly washed body suddenly became a clay figure again. The soldiers in the barracks next to him heard the sound and looked at it, and immediately laughed so much that they couldn't straighten their waists, where could Chen Xin still see the human form, probably because his body was too heavy, and smashed the ground in the barracks into a half-foot deep pit.

Chen Xin didn't have time to speak, so he ran into the river to wash off the mud on his body. However, when everyone's eyes saw the snake right standing on the edge of the bed, they suddenly seemed to be enchanted, and several soldiers rubbed their eyes to make sure that they were not mistaken. Then he said, "Where are you a woman, and why are you in the barracks?"

Candle Tian also washed his clothes and came back at this time, and he couldn't help but be shocked when he saw the delicate and moving snake, what a beautiful beauty. But after thinking about it, this is a snake left, just empty skin, but a real man. I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart again, and I hit a spirit.

The soldier came up and said, "What are you doing? ”

However, when the head of the soldier saw the right side of the snake, he was also shocked, and said: "You stinky boys, where did you bring back a little lady, and you won't send it back to me." ”

At this time, Chen Xin came back, and when he saw everyone in a circle, he quickly explained: "This is the eldest sister of the three of us, Snake Right, just now because she was covered in mud, she was mistaken for a man by everyone, she is actually 。。。。。。 ”

Chen Xin didn't know how to explain, so he got into the barracks and put on his uniforms and said: "Actually, we are not refugees, but people from the Black Rat City, the people over there are hungry, unclothed, and life is really difficult. ”

The soldier didn't know what to hear, so he had to let Chen Xin start from the beginning. After Chen Xin finished speaking, everyone let out a sigh, and the head of the soldier said: "It's just nonsense, the Black Rat City is a notoriously rich place, how can it be what you see." Could it be that you really encountered a youkai?"

With this in mind, he was not allowed to hesitate any longer, and the head of the soldier led the three people to directly find the city lord of Qicheng, that is, Xibohou. After listening to the three of them, Xibohou almost didn't make the slightest preparation, so he called someone to lead the horse over, and led the three of them with a large group of men and horses and Candle Tian all the way to the place that Chen Xin said.

When I arrived at the black rat city that Candle Sky had mentioned before, I found that where there was a city, it was a huge lake. Xibohou looked carefully for a long time, and stabbed a sword into the soil by the lake, and sure enough, many toads appeared by the lake, croaking and screaming.

The originally quiet surface of the lake also began to splash layer by layer, and many toads swam out of the water and gathered not far from the three of them, screaming loudly, as if venting great anger. And in the dirt by the lake, those larger toads also crawled out of the dirt, staring at the three of them with two eyes, jumping and jumping. There is a momentum to smash the corpses of Candle Sky and others.

At this moment, several huge toads croaked above the water, and after about a few minutes, all the toads slowly jumped into the distance, but the cry was a little more mournful.

Xibohou said: "You must have encountered a toad as a demon, according to your statement, it should be that after the death of the big toad spirit, the transformed black rat city has disappeared since then, leaving only these little demons who are not good enough to become incarnated by their own cultivation." It takes at least two hours to travel from a populated place, so there is no need to do anything else. Ask people to fill the place three miles away with signs, indicating that there are monsters infested here, so that pedestrians should not go here. ”

Chen Xin said: "We chose between the toad and the rat king to help the rat king, and we are somewhat unfair to the toad. But after all, they are intruders, and they want to take over the Rat King's Rat Mountain to wage war, and it is only natural that they will suffer this fate. However, the toad did not let the clan take revenge after his death, and he must have felt a little guilty and sorry for his people, so the situation just now occurred. ”

Candle Tian said: "You mean that those toads in the dirt are the henchmen of the city lord, if it weren't for the toads on the water just now who ordered to retreat, we would have to fight them today?"

Xibohou said: "The human race and the demon race are originally creatures in this world, and we have no reason to deprive them of the basic right to survive for our own selfish desires. Only by avoiding war with each other can the world be peaceful and the human race stable, and we must not resort to murderous thoughts. ”

The three of them hurriedly clasped their fists and saluted. said: "Remember the teachings of the Hou Ye, we are narrow-minded. ”

The sergeants who accompanied him said: "Lord Hou's generosity and benevolence will surely make Qicheng long and stable, and the country strong and the people rich." ”
