Chapter 508: Good Guy Little Girl
Huaihuang is a small country in the north, a barren land, the government and the opposition, are poor, so that the king can not send officials to worship the gods of Wuyue on time, so there is a saying that the officials of the two ministries of rites and households do not go up the mountain.
It may be that the imperial court is not respectful enough to respect the relationship between the lord of Wuyue Mountain, coupled with the sparse local ancestral temples and the lack of incense, there are often demons in the countryside of Huaihuang Kingdom, so there are often real people and monks from other countries who travel through the mountains and rivers to save the people from fire and water. It's just that these high-ranking people who are quite good at the local level have never been able to enter the real powerful court of Huaihuang Kingdom, and then they simply bypassed the capital directly, saving themselves a nose of dust.
On this day, Huai Huangguo and the border pass of the southern Yinping country, there is a white-clothed scholar wearing a hat, handed over the customs clearance documents, entered the border city, wandered around, in a market overpass, sitting on the bamboo box, nibbling on the green onion cake just bought, and the local people and some businessmen who did not do much business, listening to the storyteller tell some strange stories, the storyteller is old, ancient and rare, never thought about the anger but enough, tear open the voice can shake the sky, is spitting around, said that the step of shaking the county before the appearance of a fierce demon, entrenched in the mountain, at night turned into black smoke to sneak into the county, specifically to plunder the yellow flower girl, the government can not stop it at all, As a result, the old man who was invited by a county guard to set up an altar attracted Lei Fa, only to see that the original moon stars were sparse in the middle of the night, suddenly rainstorm and thunder, the big demon hid the miasma of the mountain, snapped, there was a thunderbolt smashed into the deep mountain, afterwards there was a bold woodcutter to follow the movement into the mountain to see, it was a thick snake as a well to the thunder to chop alive, but it is a pity that those yellow flower girls, in the col, skeletons are all over the place, white bones are craggy, look at the appearance, it should be those unfortunate women.
Everyone in the audience gasped, their hair stood on end, and their backs were cold.
The scholar in a snow-white robe was also startled by others.
Ding Ding Dong, some listeners stepped forward to take the lead in giving the reward, and some people behind them successively took out their pockets and threw some copper coins in the big white bowl, and the storyteller glanced at the harvest in the bowl, stroked his beard and smiled, enough to buy two pots of wine.
In the end, Mr. Storyteller said that there are also demons and demons in Yuhu County, lawless, but it is a pity that the Taishou Lord of this county is a miser, who has no connections, and is unwilling to hire real people and immortals to go down the mountain to subdue demons, the people of Yuhu County are really pitiful, and they are entangled so much that they are so angry that they are so angry that they are not high, and they are far inferior to the snake demon of Bu Shao County who was killed by the thunder, otherwise it is really a tragedy in the world.
The common people like to be lively, so there are men who ask where the demon of Yuwat County is sacred, and the storyteller will tell the story, saying that there are white-clothed hanged ghosts in the county, and they like to scare the husband, knocking on people's doors late at night, so that no one dares to go out at night in the county town, and there are also barren mounds and foxes and rabbits. Another group of fierce ghosts drove away the monks of the temple, the doves occupied the magpie's nest, and the green-clothed girl at the ferry, who used the river as their house to make waves.
Some people don't believe it, saying that Yinping Country and our Huaihuang Kingdom have always been stable, and they haven't seen spirits and demons for hundreds of years. The storyteller blew his beard and glared, saying that he had seen with his own eyes the corpse of the snake demon and the miserable white face of the green-clothed water ghost at the ferry.
The audience laughed and disagreed.
The old man looked around, and finally looked at the white-clothed scholar who had just finished eating scallion pancakes, and stretched out his hand, "This scholar who travels far away must have read a lot and has a wide range of knowledge, you ask him, are there any ghosts and spirits in the world." Readers, even if you have not seen it with your own eyes, you have heard of it. β
Everyone looked at the young man wearing the hat, and the man shook his head and said, "I have never seen or heard of it." β
Boos erupted.
The storyteller saw that it was not good, so he hurriedly put away the big white bowl and closed the stall. His mother's readers don't have a good thing, so it's just a money field, and they can't hold a personal field, and at first glance, they don't have the slightest hope for the title of the gold list.
As soon as the stalls were closed, the audience and spectators dispersed.
The storyteller glared fiercely at the scholar who was on a study tour.
Chen Ping'an smiled, stood up, and carried the bamboo box, the sword fairy and the sword raising gourd and the jade bamboo fan had been put into the bamboo box before, and there was only the verdant hiking stick in his hand.
Chen Ping'an walked up to the old man, "Old man, I invite you to drink, do you want to drink." β
Mr. Storyteller squinted at him, and saw that his hands were powerless, not like some gangsters who robbed houses, but the rivers and lakes were not easy to walk, and God knows which one on the road looked at the small puddle with extremely shallow water, which would make people stumble, so even if he was really greedy, he forcibly swallowed his saliva, and refused with a smile: " No, no, this son's kindness is understood, I still have to hurry, pass the customs and go to Yinping Country to make a living, the inn here in the city collects money like killing pigs, and sleeping on the street will cause trouble, it is better to pass the customs and sleep in the wilderness, regardless of the sky. β
Chen Ping'an said regretfully: "Okay, then I won't keep the old man, I should save a pot of fly wine from Bishan Building." β
The old man's eyes lit up, and the wine worms in his stomach began to rebel, he immediately changed his face, looked up at the sky, and said with a smile: "Looking at the sky, it's too early, don't be in a hurry, don't worry, and let the Kong Fang brothers over there in Yinping Country wait a little longer, Gongzi is hospitable, I won't refuse, go, go to Bishan Building, this fly whisk wine hasn't tasted yet, thanks to Gongzi's blessing, drink a good pot." β
Chen Ping'an nodded and smiled: "The old gentleman doesn't call the apprentice together?"
The old man was stunned, turned his head and beckoned, called the guy who was the first to throw money into the bowl to his side, and said in a low voice: "Childe has good eyesight." β
Arrived at the largest restaurant in the city, the three of them sat down on the second floor under the guidance of the courteous guys, Chen Ping'an asked for a table of dishes, three pots of fly whisk wine, the old man waited until the three pots of wine were on the table, and then silently put the pot of fly whisk wine that the scholar put next to his disciple, silently put it in front of his eyes, and said with a smile: "I just forgot to say to my son, my apprentice can't drink, and the son is broken, and the boy is broken, and he is broken." β
Chen Ping'an said suddenly: "Then I'll let the shopkeeper withdraw the extra fly whisk wine, two taels of silver." β
The old man hurriedly wrapped his arms around the two pots of wine, "Don't mind, son, how can there be a reason for good wine to be served on the table and withdrawn, isn't this to let the beauty undress and get out of the bed, it will ruin the scenery, how can it be so." β
Chen Ping'an opened the mud seal, poured himself a bowl of wine, and asked with a smile: "Could the old gentleman be a native of Mengliang Country?"
The old man shook his head and said: "The old man is from the westernmost Qingjing country, since the age of twenty-six began to be this storyteller, more than a dozen countries have gone through most of the half, Mengliang country has been to a trip, a good paradise that is difficult to have in the world, I think about the future pension place, I will choose Mengliang country, anyway, the hometown has long been no relatives and no reason, no worries, if the apprentice fights, earn real money, and wait for me to close my eyes, but I can be buried in my hometown." β
Chen Ping'an smiled: "Then just drink." β
Chen Ping'an could only see that the storyteller in front of him was a three-realm qi practitioner, but this meant that the old man in front of him was either really a monk of the lower five realms who traveled all over the world, or his cultivation realm would be far higher than that of Ye Yan and Fan Weiran. On the territory of more than a dozen countries, in addition to the two behind-the-scenes masters, Ye Yan and Fan Weiran are already well-deserved "mountaintop" monks.
One day before, the ripples of the spiritual energy on the border of more than a dozen countries were shaking, like spring thunder, which made Chen Ping'an feel emotional, and immediately took the sword into the air, only to see an extremely long golden line suddenly appear on the earth, and then burned like ashes, it should be one of the great monks who removed the supernatural power prohibition of enclosure as a prison, most of them are the people behind the scenes of Mengliang Country who got the strange treasure of the city with the car, as for the other great monk who is only known as Xia Zhen for the time being, he has not shown up so far, and came to find trouble for himself, logically speaking, this is very wrong, Fan Weiran's Baotong Wonderland, Ye Yu's Huangyue City, all the mountains led by the forces of both sides, it is very likely that they are caged birds raised by this person, the fish in the pond, such a big loss, there is no movement, and there are two possibilities, the lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, Xia Zhen is waiting for himself somewhere now, or...... It's that Jiang Shangzhen has secretly cleaned up the mess before he appeared in the driving city, Xia Zhen is either dead, or he got out of danger, but his vitality is greatly damaged, and he is unable to give himself a fatal blow.
If the storyteller in front of him is really the Mengliang national master who came to see him, Chen Ping'an is too lazy to talk to him and roll up his sleeves to fight.
The old man smiled and said: "What's the matter, Gongzi has acquaintances in Mengliang Country? Is it an enemy who shares the sky, or is it a family and friend who is worried? If it is the latter, when I finish the Yinping Country, I will travel to Mengliang Country with my stupid apprentice in the future, and I can help Gongzi talk a thing or two, it is ......."
The old man grinned and stretched out two fingers and twisted them gently.
Chen Ping'an shook his head and said: "There is no deep hatred and no big grudge, the well water does not violate the river water, it is to admire the means of a master of the Mengliang country, meticulous and infallible, I really want to sincerely invite him to drink a pot of wine, anyway, now the overall situation has been decided, just like a chess game review, this master was the first to move, with great strength, calm in the middle game, and so many wonderful moves at the end, no one understood, help cheer a few times, just like the old gentleman you tell the story, if the audience is silent, the birds are silent, even if you get a big bowl of copper coins in the end, isn't it still a big regret?"
The old man took a sip of wine, "I don't know what Childe is talking about, but it sounds so reasonable." Shall we go then?"
Chen Ping'an picked up the wine bowl, touched the old man, and drank separately.
It's not just about drinking alcohol with like-minded people.
In the shadow of the sword and sword, the intrigue with the flies and dogs, and the people who look at each other as enemies, and the murderous air in the wine table, cups and bowls, is also a practice.
As for the fresh vision of this small northern country Huaihuang now, the sudden increase in demons is also related to the aura like a flood, pouring into the territory of more than a dozen countries from the outside.
It's just that Chen Ping'an doesn't plan to tear his face for the time being for the master of Mengliang Country and the monk named Xia Zhen, above the golden pill, Yuan Ying is okay to say, if you can't beat it, you can still run, but as long as there is a Jade Pu Realm, you don't need both of them, it is a big trouble for yourself, Chen Ping'an doesn't have any favorable time, place and people, the other party really wants to kill him at any cost, just the temper of the monk of Beiju Luzhou, there will definitely be no hesitation. In this sword immortal xenophobic Beiju Luzhou, there are more than one or two foreign monks with backgrounds and backers.
Otherwise, these aura like a tide pouring into the upper reaches of the river, Chen Ping'an is ruthless, and he can use the sage jade plate to get in his pocket, but the use of this jade medal that can make Liu Laocheng jealous in Shujian Lake across the continent is a different scene if it is taken out and used in Juluzhou, it will be very taboo, and it may cause the disgust and accountability of Yizhou Academy.
The two behind-the-scenes people, compared to Xia Zhen, Chen Ping'an was more afraid of the great monk who was implicated in Mengliang State, and he was scheming, step by step, and there was no need for that person to take action himself, but he sent two subordinates to obtain the heavy treasure of the city with him, and in the end, if he hadn't broken through the formation in the Cangyun Lake Dragon Palace, the Golden Body Realm martial artist who deliberately became a grandson in the Mengliang Peak Qi Practitioner would definitely continue to hide.
When you see a Du Yu, you will roughly know the situation of the Ghost Axe Palace, and when you see the Lord of Shaoxi Canal and Mrs. Zaoqu, you will roughly know the customs of Cangyun Lake. Seeing Yan Qing and knowing the Treasure Fairyland, seeing He Lu and knowing Huang Yuecheng's style, are all based on this principle, of course there will be errors, but as long as you get along for a long time and see more monks, the closer and closer you will get to the facts and truth, and in case, it will become smaller and smaller. Sometimes, you can also see the whole picture, which means that the city god who is driving with the city, Fan Weiran and Ye Yan, because they are all heads of the family, and what the family style is often decided by them.
One looks up, the other looks down, the two add up, like the two ends of a vein, once someone picks up the two ends, let you lie down for thousands of miles, it is difficult to escape the eyes of the law.
The world is complicated, and if you want to live more and more easily, either I will be covered by a quilt, I will only live myself, and I will accept my fate if I endure hardships and enjoy happiness, or I can only see and think more. The latter has to work hard, a mountain is always higher than a mountain, even if the saints of all parties sitting in the small world, like the old God, as long as they step out of their own small world one day, they are still bound and sent under the fence, and they still need to look at the many veins and cumbersome rules in the world.
Being reasonable may not be useful.
Knowing the rules is never a bad thing.
However, people know how to find out the rules of others and grasp the context of Chen Ping'an's actions, so on Cangyun Lake, black clouds are dense and shrouded in the territory, and Chen Ping'an does not dare to kill him, for fear that one lake, three rivers and two canals will flood, and countless innocent people will be affected. In the Dragon Palace, he was no less damned than Ye Yanfan Weiran, but he took the initiative to promise that he would be willing to protect the people in the realm in the future, repair the luck of the mountains and rivers, and make up for his merits, so not a single punch or sword of the white-clothed sword immortal fell on his head.
Then Mr. Storyteller and his apprentice devoured and feasted.
Chen Ping'an just drank the wine in the bowl slowly, and never moved his chopsticks.
Mr. Storyteller burped and said with a smile: "Childe doesn't move a single chopstick, just drinks, is he not hungry at all?"
Chen Ping'an smiled: "It's true that I'm not hungry, not to mention this meal, I think it should be the old gentleman's." β
The old man said helplessly: "Childe's words, how can they be like a bald donkey talking about Zen, teaching people to scratch their heads." β
Chen Ping'an asked, "When will the old gentleman go to Yinping Country?"
The old man smiled: "This is going to leave, eat and drink to your heart's content." By the way, I learned some physiognomy, and Childe invited me to eat such a meal, why don't you calculate a hexagram for Childe? Childe can rest assured that he will not charge money. β
Chen Ping'an nodded and said, "Then there is Mr. Lao." β
The old man took out a few copper coins from his sleeve and threw them on the table, groaning and silent.
Chen Ping'an smiled and didn't speak.
The old man gently moved the copper coin on the table with his fingers, frowned, and said: "The son is kind-hearted and is a person with a deep fortune, but it is also necessary to avoid it, the blessed people do not fall into the unblessed land, the old saying is never empty and unfounded, and the listener should not make a general statement." I see that Gongzi traveled north to Huaihuang Country this time, and he can go everywhere, but he can't go to the Bun Mountain in front of him, which is more than 100 miles away, and for Gongzi, it is an unblessed place. It may not be much dangerous to go, but if you really encounter evil in the way, it will not be beautiful after all. β
Chen Ping'an smiled: "Okay, then I'll listen to the old gentleman and go around the Bun Mountain." β
The old man looked up and smiled, "Childe really believes?"
Chen Ping'an said with a smile: "The old man said the old saying, how can he not believe it, anyway, traveling to Huaihuang Country and taking a few more steps around the road is nothing." β
The old man got up and exclaimed: "Then I won't bother my son, leave first, get out of the customs quickly, tell the fortune, and leak the secret of heaven, which is always worrying." β
Chen Ping'an nodded, "I will finish drinking this pot of wine, and I will also take a detour to the north, and I will not go to the Bun Mountain to find my own bad head." β
The old man left Bishan Tower with Mu Ne's apprentice.
Chen Ping'an drank the pot of local specialty fly whisk wine, and when he went downstairs to settle the bill, he was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile, and gave a full twenty taels of silver with wine and vegetables. Chen Ping'an is not too concerned, because there is no need to guess the identity of this person, save a worry, do not need to be distracted and delay the cultivation, and it is still very cost-effective to pay an extra dozen taels of silver.
In the end, Chen Ping'an really bypassed the Bun Mountain, there are many waterfalls in the mountain, and it is a landscape-shaped place that he wants to browse.
ββββ
Bun in the mountains.
In a half-mountain pavilion for people to rest.
A young man with a green jade belt wrapped around his waist, his face was pale, and beside him were Ye Yan, Fan Weiran, and a second ancestor woman from Baotong Wonderland.
It was Xia Zhen who escaped death by luck.
Xia Zhen roared angrily: "Old thing, why are you doing me a big deal?!I have already told you clearly, I have sent a letter to the Great Sword Immortal in the middle, this person is Jiang Shangzhen's accomplice, even if Jiang Shangzhen is hiding in the dark, he will still be frightened and cowering! You scared away the bait this time, once the Great Sword Immortal gets angry, do you really think that you have refined the Innate Sword Pill and entered the Upper Five Realms?!Are you stupid? I have already sworn that the half-immortal soldier belongs to you, I only ask for the rest of the objects on his body, and you are not satisfied?!Do we have to be happy if we both get nothing? β
On a hill in the distance, an old man in a Confucian shirt smiled slightly, and a storyteller and a young man with a wooden expression appeared beside him, and then their bodies overlapped and turned into a person.
It should be the immortal method of traveling together with the true body of the yang god and the yin god out of the body.
The old man smiled and said: "Don't scare me with these vain words, just the temper of that great sword immortal, even if you receive a secret letter, you don't bother to act like this, and you are fishing, do you really think that we are making a small fight in these more than ten countries, and we need to work so hard?"
The old man was none other than the National Master of Mengliang Country, and he grabbed a transmission flying sword with two fingers and gently shattered it, "What's more, that Great Sword Immortal has never received your secret letter. β
Xia Zhen's face was gloomy, and he suddenly laughed angrily, "Are you planning to make a mortal enmity with me Xia Zhen?!"
The old national teacher smiled: " The territory of these more than a dozen countries, now the aura has increased a lot, it is a place that is neither good nor bad, you and I have been neighbors for many years, you Xia is really notoriously difficult, although it hurts the avenue now, but I still can't kill you, it is even more difficult for you to kill me, the two of us are comparing who is among the five realms first, so why should I watch you pass the message to the immortal mansion of the big sword immortal in the middle, in case the big sword immortal really hates Jiang Shangzhen, he is willing to lower his body and make a move on a small sword cultivator, when the time comes, you will be on such a thigh, and let others remember your friendship, I will be among the jade realms in the future, how can I be embarrassed to compete with you for the territory of these more than ten countriesXia Zhen, it's a pity, you are so angry that you have slowed down the speed of the whale swallowing the border aura, and you also have to take three lackeys in this Bun Mountain, and it takes two decades of time, and the carefully arranged mountain-moving array does not seem to have a chance to come in handy in the end?"
Xia Zhen sneered, "Aren't you there?"
The old man pretended to be abrupt, "That's right, I just don't know who is more lethal and more powerful against you, the sword pill embryo of my little refinement." Between you and me, sooner or later there will be a fight, and it will save trouble in advance. Now it's not the same as it was back then, you are strong and I am weak, feng shui takes turns, you Xia Zhen can't see the situation clearly?"
The National Master of Mengliang Country shook his head with a smile, "But it's really not that I look down on you Xia Zhen, this talisman array can indeed hurt him, but it may not be able to trap him." I'm here to help you rein in the precipice, you Xia Zhen shouldn't be so kind as a donkey's liver and lungs, relying on a secret letter that I don't know if it will be muddy cows into the sea, I dare to play some kind of trick with Jiang Shangzhen. In the past hundreds of years, in order to prevent you from being caught by clues, the news is blocked, I am not as well-informed as you, but I know more about some old things in the past than you Xia Zhen. If you send the secret letter to the Great Sword Immortal in the north, I will not intercept this flying sword. β
The old man held back a smile and looked at Na Xia Zhen, his eyes full of sarcasm and pity, " Because it was a male sword fairy, his beloved only daughter was harmed by Jiang Shangzhen, delayed the avenue, killed Jiang Shangzhen, and naturally spared no effort, but the person you sent the letter to is a woman, it seems that you don't know very well, her grievances and hatreds with Jiang Shangzhen back then, what she resented was not that she regretted her infatuation Jiang Shangzhen as rumored by the outside world, but hated this person's empathy and love, and he was messing with flowers and grass everywhereSo you Xia Zhen are really not a good ally, if that young man is a higher Taoist and is the same as us Yuanying, I will join forces with him and kill you. As for now, the matter has come to this point, it is useless to say more, I will not fight with you, consume the Tao, you slowly absorb the aura to recover, step by step, step by step, according to my deduction technique back then, your Yuan Infant Bottleneck will come at a later time than me. Now it seems that you are actually still unstable in your Dao heart, and when you reach the realm of you and me, if you still act in the wild cultivation style that took advantage of the advantages back then, you will have to suffer a lot. β
The pavilion set up by Xia Zhen suddenly turned into powder, and Ye Yan, Fan Weiran, and the two ancestors of Baotong Wonderland were all forced to sweep out, hovering in the wind, and their faces were panicked.
The old man turned a blind eye, "You and I have formed an alliance to work together, I am incognito in Mengliang Country, although it is true that there was a plot at the beginning, but the experience of red dust in the world is indeed beneficial to the Dao heart, so I can suppress you everywhere, and always earn more than you, do you really think it is just a calculation? No, it is me who is earlier than you Xia Zhen, and I have seized a glimmer of opportunity for Yuanying to join the Dao." If Jiang Shangzhen is really that person's friend, how can he deliberately leave troubles, it is nothing more than to see farther than you and me, and forget that there is this today, you are not afraid? I am afraid, because this is a conspiracy, I am willing to enter the urn myself, do a good thing to you, and make a move for me to open a sect in the future to include more than a dozen countries. For you Xia Zhen, it is naturally a conspiracy, one after another, and the bamboo basket is empty every time. I even guessed that this messenger flying sword that I intercepted was deliberately left to me by Jiang Shangzhen. β
Xia Zhen reined in that momentum and said with a smile: "It's a big deal for me, and it's going to mess with my mood, you old thief has a good calculation." β
The old man sighed with emotion: "Xia Zhen, true or false, good or bad, no matter what my original intention is, true or false, according to the previous agreement, I will not deliberately prevent you from absorbing the aura of heaven and earth, but I have already taken one step ahead, no, it should be two steps." So in the future, when I break through the realm and enter the upper five realms, I will give you another choice, whether to escape from this place and continue to be a wild cultivator in the mountains and rivers with no fixed place, or to be the chief worshipper of my sect, you and I no longer need to fight for this bit of landscape and territory, and do that unnecessary battle for the avenue?
Xia Zhen was silent, looking up at the old man in a Confucian shirt standing on the top of the mountain.
In the end, Xia Zhen smiled and asked, "Did you have such a big appetite from the beginning, and you wanted to win me over as your sect worship?"
The old man shook his head and said: "Under the Five Realms, let you be the so-called land immortal of the world, everyone still goes with the flow, I am after I have obtained the merit treasure, and now my state of mind tends to be perfect, so I have such a mind and vision, so after Jiang Shangzhen injured you, I didn't have any idea of beating the water dog, otherwise since I intercepted the flying sword, how could I watch you linger in this bun mountain?
Xia Zhen pressed the horned green snake that fell into a deep sleep with both hands, and pulled the corners of his mouth, "Then have you ever thought that my communication flying sword is more than one? You intercepted that one, but it was just a trick? I deliberately let you catch it? You might as well do the math, from the time when Jiang Shangzhen left the south of the city and returned, and I appeared in the Bun Mountain, is it that I Xia Zhen calculated that he and the Northern Sword Immortal are expected to appear together." β
The old man sighed, "That's all I have to say, if you want to gamble, it's up to you, you Xia Zhen has already gambled anyway, it's useless to say more." β
Xia Zhen smiled cruelly: "Yes, I am now red-eyed, you don't have a backache if you stand and talk here again, don't blame me for fighting to get injured again, and let you refine the sword pill slowly!"
The old man waved his hand, "That's it, just when I don't go to the Jade Pu Realm in the future of the sect." β
Xia Zhen waved his sleeves and said sharply: "Old dog, get out, it's annoying to see you!"
The old man laughed, and his figure dissipated.
Xia Zhen stood in the ruins of the pavilion, like a cage trapped beast, walking in circles, and then waving his hands, more than a dozen large and small peaks including the Bun Mountain, like the roots of the mountain being cut by a knife, suspended in the air, were controlled by Xia Zhen to move the mountain formation, the mountain pointed to the ground, hung upside down, and then smashed the ground, every time it smashed in the nearby mountains and rivers, it was startled to cover the dust that covered the sky and the sun, and every time the mountain peak smashed the ground, it was already between the amazing killing power of Jindan and Yuan Ying, but it was a pity that this mountain-moving talisman array was a dead thing, it took too long, and it couldn't be moved, it became a joke and ornament, and it was used by Xia Zhen to vent his anger.
Within a radius of thousands of miles, they all felt the astonishing movement of the cow's back.
Seeing that Ye Yan and the three of them were nervous.
In the end, Xia Zhen had to pull out the roots of the mountain under his feet, drive it into the sea of clouds, and then smash it high.
It's just that Xia Zhen frowned.
On the ridge road, two people walked down, three people to be exact.
A pair of men and women who look like Taoist couples stand side by side, talking and laughing, and the woman is also holding a baby in her hand, her eyes are gentle.
An extremely slender snow-white sword hung from the woman's waist.
Xia Zhen is already in trouble with his scalp.
As for the man, it made Xia Zhen's back chill.
The man complained, "Well, it's noisy for me and Sister Li's children, and it will take a while to make faces and amuse before it stops." β
Xia Zhen was really desperate this time.
The woman who was nicknamed Sister Li by the man.
If it's really the one you guessed, you don't even want to run away today.
In the middle of Beiju Luzhou, there is a female sword fairy named Li Cai.
The natal flying sword is named Snowflake.
The sword is called Frost Jiao.
It is one of the sword immortals who have never gone to the Inverted Hanging Mountain together and are still staying in Beiju Luzhou.
As a sign of respect, the sword fairy became the Great Sword Immortal.
Sounds far-fetched.
But that killing power is real.
Every sword immortal of the Upper Five Realms of Beiju Luzhou does not have the slightest water, and the monks of the Yupu Realm, such as the one in the Qionglin Sect, even the Yuanying Sword Cultivator is not too rare to provoke, and they are disgusted and embarrassed if they win. But if there is a new sword cultivator who enters the Yupu realm, he will almost have to fight with other sword immortals a few times, and if he dies, he will naturally have bad luck, and his ability is not high, and he dares to be a bird, and he can't afford the title of sword immortal, so he will be pulled down when he dies. But if you can be immortal, you are qualified to stand together on the land of Beiju Luzhou.
Xia Zhenyi gritted his teeth, faced the mountain road, and saluted: "I've seen Li Dajian Immortal, and I've seen Jiang senior." β
That Jiang Shangzhen had a hippie smile, "Yo, you know to call me senior at this time." β
The woman frowned and said, "If it weren't for the fact that you were still knowledgeable and knew that the flying sword sent me a letter to inform me, you would have died by now." You Ye Xiu, do you understand etiquette, change the order. β
Xia Zhen almost burst his brain on the spot, and said in a trembling voice: "I've seen Senior Jiang, I've seen Li Da Sword Immortal!"
Jiang Shangzhen patted the woman's sword fairy's arm, "Don't be like this, what kind of person is Jiang Lang, Sister Li still doesn't know? β
The woman snorted coldly: "Your account, I'll settle it later." Whether or not to go to Shujian Lake to help you shake your majesty, I didn't promise you. β
Jiang Shangzhen looked calm, bent down, lifted the corner of the swaddling clothes, and smiled softly: "Little Nier, the mother you just met is angry, grow up quickly, and after learning to speak, I can help my father intercede." β
The corners of the woman's mouth curled up and down.
Poor Xia Zhen is about to go crazy.
Jiang Shangzhen turned his head and looked at Na Xia Zhen, " You, like me back then, can fight and run, which is commendable, so I left you half a dog's life, thinking that as long as I have met Sister Li, when I go south hand in hand, you can live a little in peace, I won't worry too much about you, but you have half the ability to run away as I did back then, but the brain, it's mushy, that Mengliang National Teacher said so many honest things to you, every sentence when you are his biological son, you are good, you can't listen to half a sentence, I Jiang Shangzhen was in your Beiju Luzhou back then, and I saw more than I was bent on death, Then give me the mountain people who help them fulfill their wishes, but it's really not common for you to beg for death in such a different way. β
Xia Zhen said in a deep voice: "I implore Senior Jiang to give me another chance, the last time!"
Jiang Shangzhen said with a smile: "The big sword immortal in the north really seduces you secretly, but our husband and wife are of the same heart and fight the enemy together, and we finally retreated. It's really embarrassing for him, a sword immortal, just to kill me Jiang Shangzhen, he has to hide his head and tail with his temperament, thanks to Sister Li's familiarity with his sword intent, otherwise I Jiang Shangzhen don't leave an arm or a leg or something in your Beiju Luzhou, then the sword immortal should have killed him with a tofu block. The danger that is dangerous, you Xia Zhen, you are really the master who does not stop, I am afraid of you, okay? Uncle Xia Zhenxia, I beg you, can I win?"
Xia Zhen didn't hesitate anymore, he definitely couldn't be good!
Bang.
Hundreds of Xia Zhen conjured up from the real body, either resisting the wind, running wildly or fleeing, and fled one after another. As long as you can escape one of them, you can live! Such a costly secret method, even if it will hurt oneself and increase one's injury, it is better than being beaten alive by two Upper Five Realm cultivators.
Jiang Shangzhen was surprised: "Last time, it wasn't such a way to run, good guy, you really deserve to be an immortal in the eyes of these ants, and you scared me to death." β
The female sword fairy beside Jiang Shangzhen pulled the corners of her mouth, her palm pressed against the hilt of the sword, and after a gentle tremble, the sword was not unsheathed.
In all directions of the heaven and earth of the Bun Mountain, there are snow-white sword qi rolling in, either straight or winding or fluttering.
In an instant, the heavens and the earth fell silent.
Jiang Shangzhen stretched out a hand, grabbed a golden pill and a little person the size of a grain of rice, put it in the small world of his sleeve, grabbed it again, and put the languishing horned green snake on the ground into his sleeve, and said with annoyance: "I'm annoyed to death, and let Lao Tzu earn money and get treasure!"
The female sword immortal Li Cai glared at him.
Jiang Shangzhen gently shouted at the infant child in her arms, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, just give this little girl as a future dowry." β
Li Cai saw that the three people over there were a little eyesore, so he was a little impatient and asked, "What do these three frogs at the bottom of the well say?"
Jiang Shangzhen looked at the three of them obliquely.
The three were already hovering in the air and kneeling.
Xia Zhen is the mountaintop immortal in their hearts.
Just blink an eye and die?
Jiang Shangzhen moved softly, and patted one of the sleeves for the woman, "Why don't you forget it......?"
In the middle of the words, a willow leaf instantly passed through the eyebrows of Ye Yan and Fan Weiran, and finally submerged into Jiang Shangzhen's body, and he smiled: "Anyway, Xiao Nier is sleeping, I can't see it." β
The bodies of two Jindan monks fell into the foothills of Mt. Bun.
Jiang Shangzhen didn't even look at it.
Just the little tattered belongings on their bodies, is it worth me Jiang Shangzhen to bend down and stretch out his hand?
Only the last second ancestor of the Baotong Wonderland remained, a Longmen Realm monk who looked like a woman, and his body was still trembling and he couldn't stand on the ground.
The two of them began to brave the wind and move south.
Li Cai was not surprised, and there was no surprise at all.
If it weren't for the flamboyant man next to him, he would have died at the threshold of Jindan bottleneck.
That time, Jiang Shangzhen lost half his life.
This is one of the few loss-making deals in Jiang Shangzhen's trip to Beiju Luzhou.
But she still didn't know why he did it.
He liked himself back then, naturally it was true, but just like he liked other beautiful women, maybe a little more, but he should never be so desperate for her.
For so many years, she has always wanted to know the answer, and even made a special trip to Tongyezhou, but she failed to meet Jiang Shangzhen that time, Xun Yuan, the old sect master of the Yugui Sect, said that Jiang Shangzhen went to the blessed land of the cloud cave and would not return for the time being, and the old sect master also helped her scold Jiang Shangzhen, saying that this kind of bastard who is weak and fortunate should die in the blessed land of the cloud cave...... However, Li Cai also knew that the old sect master still said a lot of things about himself to Jiang Shangzhen, obviously hoping that he would not die to Jiang Shangzhen.
But it wasn't until she reunited with Jiang Shangzhen that Li Cai, who was now a female sword immortal in the middle of Beiju Luzhou, didn't want to know the answer.
Li Cai turned his head and looked at it, and asked, "You're not going to say hello?"
Jiang Shangzhen shook his head and said: "I really have too much to do with He Xiaoliang, plus you are by my side, I am a foreigner, and I am not afraid of trouble, but you are a monk here, I can't affect you." β
Li Cai smiled slightly.
She suddenly frowned and asked: "Then with the Heavenly Tribulation of the City, I look at the afterglow of the sea of clouds, and the weaker Yuan Ying is a big trouble, how did you stop it." β
Jiang Shangzhen smiled: "What else, it's just desperate." Sincerity is spirituality, and occasionally you still have to believe in it. People are not as good as heaven, geography is not as good as heaven, and it is also reasonable. The one who pretended to be the national teacher of Mengliang Country, in the end, caught a little fur, and it was not easy for the Yuan Infant Realm to peek into the sky, so naturally he had a greater future than Xia Zhen. β
Li Cai nodded, deeply convinced.
Jiang Shangzhen said suddenly: "I heard that you have accepted an excellent female disciple? β
Li Cai's face was strange.
Jiang Shangzhen rolled his eyes and said: "I'm worried about what I'm doing, rabbits don't eat the grass next to the nest, and a family only likes one, this is the purpose of Jiang Shangzhen walking on the mountain as fast as the wind, and not falling down for a thousand years!"
Li Cai's face was like frost, and he asked, "Then why are you asking this?"
Jiang Shangzhen smiled: "I'm not afraid that she will repeat the mistakes of the past, the disciple learns from the master and likes a good man who is hard to change." β
Li Cai shook his head, "My disciple, the firmness of the Dao heart, is better than I was back then, and I will never like anyone in this life." A good woman is afraid of pestering Lang, but it won't work for my disciple. β
Jiang Shangzhen laughed and said: "Wrong, I'm afraid that she will entangle my good brother." β
Li Cai scoffed.
Jiang Shangzhen said with a hippie smile: "Sister Li, then let's make a bet, if I lose, I will let it fall, but if Sister Li, you lose, you will be enshrined in Shujian Lake as the name of my new sect?"
Li Cai nodded and said, "Yes!"
Jiang Shangzhen looked strange, "My gambling skills and luck, Sister Li personally learned it back then, why is it so refreshing this time?"
Li Cai smiled and said, "My disciple needs to retreat for thirty years, and that young man can wander around Beiju Luzhou for thirty years?"
Jiang Shangzhen reached out and grabbed the sleeve of the women's sword fairy, "Good sister, just spare me this time?"
Li Cai looked lonely and asked, "Can't you just like one person?"
Jiang Shangzhen smiled and said, "Wait until one day Sister Li is one level higher than me." β
Li Cai sighed, cut off some ripples with his heart sword, and went to the Bone Beach with Jiang Shangzhen, and took the cross-continent ferry of the Phi Ma Sect to Aquarius.
It is said that this bastard next to him is going to a place called Luoluo Mountain in Longquan County, Dali, and asks for a name to be enshrined as Zhou Fei in Yuanying Realm.
Listening to his tone, it seems that it may not be able to succeed.
Li Cai turned his head and glanced at Jiang Shangzhen, who was thinking quietly.
Laugh and talk to people, owe a beating.
When you're not smiling, you're serious.
It's a pity that such a person, it is said that the only woman he can't let go of in his life is an ordinary woman under the mountain, and he has never touched it, just watched her marry and have children, old with a red face, gray hair, and died peacefully without disaster.
Li Cai hesitated, "Jiang Shangzhen, if you meet the same woman again today, will you still like it so much?"
Jiang Shangzhen shook his head and said, "Naturally, it won't." β
Li Cai was a little puzzled.
Jiang Shangzhen said slowly: "When I first saw in my life, I saw the graceful girl in the mountains and fields, I saw the magnificent mountains and rivers when I climbed high, I looked up and saw the immortals soaring in the clouds, and I saw the sun and the moon hanging in the sky in the wind. It is not necessarily how beautiful the person you see for the first time must be, but that feeling, haunting the heart, will be difficult to forget for thousands of years. β
Jiang Shangzhen smiled again and turned his head, "It's like when I first saw Sister Li, cutting socks and stepping incense steps, carrying gold-threaded shoes......"
Li Cai said in shame: "Shut your dog's mouth!"
Jiang Shangzhen said softly: "The lady is not shy, and the husband is in turmoil." β
ββββ
Yuwat County, Huaihuang Kingdom.
There are a lot of notices posted by the government and wealthy families on the gate of the county town, all of which are the contents of inviting high-ranking people to go to their homes, and most of them are words that there must be a heavy reward at the end, and as for the specific amount of silver, there is no mention of it.
Chen Ping'an carefully read the notices under the wall, and it seemed that there was quite chaos inside and outside the county.
After adding some dry food items in the county town, Chen Ping'an settled in the inn that night, and sat on the roof to drink quietly at night.
Sure enough, on the street in the middle of the night in the county town, there was a snow-white figure flying around, sticking out her tongue, her face was distorted, her feet were off the ground, floating around, but she was shallow in her body, as long as it was posted in every household with a door god, whether there was a little aura or not, she would not go. Now the county town has changed to two bold young men, the yang is vigorous, the yamen also specially gave them a reward, you can buy two pots of wine every day, the white-clothed hanged female ghost wanted to get close to them several times, but as long as she got close, she was knocked back by those invisible yang energy, after a few times hit the wall, she went away, went to some poor people in the market to scratch the wall of the courtyard of Chaimen, some of them were sleepy, snoring like thunder, they couldn't hear the movement outside at all, only some of the shallow sleep, they were so scared that they shivered, provoked her giggles, and became more and more crazyγ
Chen Ping'an saw that the hanged ghost didn't really enter the house and harm people, so he didn't see it.
Lie on the eaves, Erlang's legs, take out the folding fan and gently shake the breeze.
The veins are most afraid of elongation, and the two ends are not real, once the upper and lower reaches and the Yellow Spring, there is the past and the next life, the height is uncertain, the front and back.
I am even more afraid that the branches of a line are staggered, and countless thin lines are branched out, and good and evil are blurred, intertwined, and a mess.
Especially when a line is stretched and nothing more than a matter of facts, then the farther you look, the more difficult it will be.
Just like that female ghost is scary and disturbs the people, it is not wrong for any cultivator to kill it, and it is reasonable to accumulate yin virtue, but if you look a little farther away, the ordinary people around the county town of Yuhu know that there are ghosts between heaven and earth, and when they want to be evil in their lives, do they have to weigh more about the saying that good and evil are rewarded and the world is reincarnated? Or why did she hang herself back then, she was able to be obsessed with it and become a ghost, and what grievances did she suffer?
Chen Ping'an closed his eyes and slept until dawn.
Nowadays, cultivation is everywhere and all the time, so it doesn't matter how you travel or how fast you go at the moment.
In the early morning of this day, when Chen Ping'an was out of the city, he saw a group of four people who had taken off a copy of the official list with a big grin, and it seemed that they were going to go directly to the trouble of stealing the temple ghosts.
Chen Ping'an was a little puzzled, these four people, two women and two men, were not dressed brightly, not pretending to be poor, but really not rich, the oldest was a middle-aged man who cultivated martial arts in the second realm, the young man should be his apprentice, barely a pure martial artist, as for the two women, they should be sisters, and they are also qi practitioners who have just set foot on the path of cultivation, and the aura contained in the qi mansion is weak, almost negligible.
If it is said that the monk of Mengliang Country who pretended to be a storyteller can let Chen Ping'an see the cultivation of the Qi cultivators in the Second Realm, but he is vigilant, in fact, it is still due to the weather.
The four men and women in front of them are really just shallow.
It is estimated that it is not difficult to deal with the white-clothed hanged female ghost floating in the county town, but the temple outside the city is clearly a group of ghosts, and dare to occupy a temple that was originally good incense, and expel all the monks, the four of them, it should be difficult to deal with.
Chen Ping'an thought about it, so he didn't go out of the city directly, and listened to the whispers of the four of them who thought that no one had heard, it was some trivial words that went to the shops in the city to buy yellow paper and draw more talismans, and grinded the gold ingot on his body into gold dust, a girl whose cheeks were frozen out of two lumps of redness, and said that it was best to ask the government for some deposits, and then through the official documents of the county guard, go to the Chenghuang Temple and Wenwu Temple to borrow a few incense-edified utensils, we have a better chance of winning, and the trip to Jinduo Temple can be more secure.
The young man complained a little, saying why he didn't subdue those fox spirits and rabbit charms, this total of two rewards from the government and the big family must be easier to earn, and the risk is not great.
The slender and middle-aged woman explained to the young man that once the ghosts of the Golden Duo Temple knew their whereabouts, they would only be on strict guard, and it would be even more difficult to succeed.
Chen Ping'an listened to their conversation, very solemn, not at all, not as heroic as when the man unveiled the list.
Chen Ping'an left the county town and went to the Jinduo Temple outside the city, which was thirty miles away.
Then there is a roadside pavilion seven or eight miles away from the Jinduo Temple, and you can rest and wait there, and outside the pavilion is the murmuring stream of the mountain.
waited until noon to wait for the figure of the group of four.
Chen Ping'an didn't wait for them to get closer, and began to walk towards the Jinduo Temple.
Carrying a bamboo box on his back, holding a walking stick, he slowed down, like a weak scholar, struggling to walk.
The four of them quickly followed the white-clothed scholar, and when they passed by, the leader of the man was holding a large incense stick, he glanced at this person, and quickly retracted his gaze, and the seemingly honest and wooden young man grinned, and the scholar smiled with him, and the young man laughed even harder, even if he had turned his head, he did not immediately close his mouth.
The older woman frowned, but didn't speak, her sister wanted to speak, but she grabbed her sleeve and signaled her sister not to do much, and the girl gave up, but after the two girls with natural blushes walked out a few steps, they still couldn't help but turn their heads, and asked with a smile: "You, a scholar, are you going to Jinduo Temple to burn incense? Don't you know that the whole people of Yuhu County are not going, you are better, but you can't do it in order to grab the first incense?"
The scholar wiped the sweat from his forehead, took a breath, and said with a smile: "I just came to Yuhu County, and I have a friend who is familiar with the monks of Jinduo Temple, saying that I can spend the night to study there, which is clean and does not cost money. β
The girl was about to speak, but she had already pinched her sister's arm, and her face wrinkled in pain, and she turned her head and whispered: "Sister, in this daylight and sunshine, there will be no temple ghosts nearby to spy on the news." If this scholar follows him to the Jinduo Temple, and then we fight with those ghosts, will we save it or not? Isn't it more difficult? Anyway, if we don't save it, we will kill the demons and earn money, and I still can't get over it in my conscience. I want to inform him that he won't die in vain. It's not easy to read, you have to go to the ghost cave, this guy is really, just his bad luck, at first glance, he doesn't have the title of the gold list. β
Her sister sighed and flicked the girl's forehead with her fingers, "Try to talk as little as possible, stop the reader, you are not allowed to be willful anymore, this trip to Jinduo Temple, you have to listen to me!"
The girl rejoiced, slowed her pace, and walked side by side with the scholar, farther and farther away from the three in front of her.
The girl's first sentence was very aura, "This scholar, have you ever been married, what do you think my sister looks like?"
The scholar from the countryside who was on a study tour smiled and said, "Girl, don't laugh." β
The girl suddenly laughed, "Teasing you." β
Then the girl had a straight face, "Then it's not a joke, the Jinduo Temple is very dangerous now, there is a large group of fierce ghosts born out of nowhere, and they drove away the monks in the twilight, and even an abbot who knows some Buddhism died on the spot, and there are many monks and pilgrims who can't escape, they occupy the temple, but they can really eat people, so don't go, and now there is not a single bald monk in the temple." If you don't believe it, you can go to the county town and inquire, if I lie to you, you will just run for nothing, but if you don't lie to you, won't you want to die in vain? How can you gain fame and glory on the lintel?"
The scholar asked, "Then how do you go about burning incense?"
The girl stomped her feet and said, "Can't you see that we are capable people who subdue demons and eliminate demons?!"
The scholar was stunned for a moment, and laughed: "Where are the demons and monsters in the world, the girl can't fool me." β
The woman and the man in front of them glanced at each other and shook their heads.
The boy tugged at the corners of his mouth.
Only the girl with a pleasing blush was a little anxious, "My sister said that you scholars are stubborn, the most difficult to turn back, if you are so ignorant, I will knock you out with a punch, and then leave you on the side of the pavilion, but this is also dangerous, in case of night, there are one or two ghosts who escape out, and they smell people, you still have to die, you stupid goose who reads and reads, hurry up!"
The scholar said stupidly: "I'm hungry at this moment, I'm shy, I really can't go back and forth to the county town, I'll take a look outside the Jinduo Temple later, if there is really no half of the pilgrim monks, I will immediately turn around and leave." β
The girl lamented: "My sister said, those high-level ghosts can operate supernatural powers, cover the sky with evil spirits, and avoid the sun with black clouds, how can you run when the time comes?"
The girl shouted forward: "Sister, I'd better take this stupid goose back to the county seat first, it's a big deal that I run faster, and I must reach the Jinduo Temple before dark." β
Her sister said angrily: "The time is all chosen by us in advance, just to worry that the ghosts in the temple can appear during the day, try to put up as many stickers as possible, once that group of evil ghosts can control the dark clouds to cover the temple, without you, what should we do, do you want to help the three of us collect the corpses afterwards?
The girl was sullen, oh, hung her head, and said to the scholar: "Scholar, let's go, we don't know each other, so we won't take advantage of you for fun, and deliberately deceive you into the ghosts of Jinduo Temple." β
But the scholar made her eyes roll with tears in her anger, and she insisted that she must go to the gate of Jinduo Temple to take a look.
She was about to stretch out her hand and punch him, and he was kind enough to treat him as a donkey's liver and lungs, but she couldn't just watch him go into danger and die.
I never thought that the nerd would take a step back, "Girl, don't beat people, the gentleman doesn't use his mouth, if you knock you out and fall in the pavilion, then someone steals my bamboo box, and you will pay me money?"
The girl turned around, hurried to follow her sister, and raised her hand to wipe her face vigorously.
She thinks how can there be such a conscience person in the world.
She was dying of grief.
But she couldn't help but turn her head to see that the guy was really following.
When she hesitated to make a black punch, good fellow, she was not smart when she should be smart, and she was not stupid when she should be stupid, so she stood still and didn't move forward.
The girl was just about to scold him, but she had already grabbed her sister's arm, "Don't mess around!"
The girl bowed her head.
Chen Ping'an smiled.
It seems to have disappointed a good person.
He continued to follow slowly, the distance between the two sides getting farther and farther apart.
The girl was about to turn her head, but her sister angrily reprimanded, "You have to kill us to make you happy, aren't you?
The girl finally stopped turning around.
Walk with your head down, with a small pebble on your foot.
Her sister lamented, "You're going to suffer a lot sooner or later." Good intentions and evil retribution, have we seen anything good along the way?"
The girl sighed and didn't refute.
In the distance, the white-clothed scholar was bored, turned the stones back to their original position with a walking stick, and said with a smile: "Is this really the case?"
Approaching the Jinduo Temple, the girl secretly turned her head, and the mountain road twisted and turned, and she could no longer see the figure of the scholar.
The four of them walked another mile, and their vision suddenly opened up, and the young woman said with a solemn expression: "It's here." β
The man nodded.
I saw that the faint evil air in the Jinduo Temple was uncertain, but it was extremely thin, and the wind blew away, and the woman wondered: "It doesn't seem right, we looked at the temple from afar last night, and the yin and evil qi shouldn't be so little." β
The man pondered for a moment and said: "This is a good thing, maybe it is really a big day, forcing those filthy ghosts to escape, just let our master and apprentice post talismans, sprinkle glutinous rice and pour dog blood, and you will lay out the formation." At dusk, when there is afterglow in the sky, and then they are knocked out of the ground by means of thunder, these yin things have no time and place, and we are safe. β
The young woman nodded, turned her head and said to her eager sister: "Cheer up, don't take it lightly, the ghostly methods of the feminine thing are endless, if this Jinduo Temple is really a trap to lure the enemy deep, we can't eat and walk around." β
The girl's eyes sparkled, "Sister, don't worry." β
Arrived at the gate of Jinduo Temple, the girl with red cheeks was in good shape, swept up the wall, on the ground in front of the main hall, there were many white bones, it should be those monks and pilgrims who were unfortunately killed, she quickly threw out a yellow paper talisman written with expensive gold powder, just pasted on the lintel of the main hall, the talisman was not burning at all, after a while, she turned her head and said: "There are no ghosts in the front hall for the time being, Uncle Song can rest assured that he will stick a talisman on the temple door, and after entering, just sprinkle rice around the wall." β
Then the two sisters began to take the lead in entering the temple, and put up ordinary yellow paper talismans on the walls and pillars, and only in some important places similar to the doors and plaques of the main hall were those rare talismans that were ground with gold dust to make vermilion.
The master and apprentice threw away the incense tube outside the temple, took off the package respectively, took out a cotton cloth bag containing heavy aged glutinous rice, and a few cowhide water bladders containing black dog blood, and began to "set up" from the front hall.
Until the end of this vast temple, the four of them met and were all unharmed.
Only in a side hall with the door closed, the girl said that the evil spirit was very heavy, so they worked together to post dozens of yellow paper talismans on the doors, windows, and the ridge and eaves, and the roof was pasted by the young woman herself, and then the girl began to remove the tiles piece by piece, allowing the sunlight to shine into this side hall, and there was a wail from inside, and the sound of the black fog being burned into ashes by the sun.
The four of them finally landed at the entrance of the side hall.
Look at each other and smile.
The young woman is holding a demon rope that she bought when she was bankrupt, forty snowflake money!
Her sister was even more eccentric, squatting on the ground, pulling out an embroidered bag, and when the knot was opened, the ancient copper coins of all shapes rolled and scattered.
As for the master and apprentice, they were bare-handed. However, the man hung a circle of darts on his waist, engraved with a talisman seal, which was obviously not a secular weapon of the martial arts of the rivers and lakes.
The woman and the man looked at each other and smiled.
It seems that the evil deeds in the temple are not as advanced as expected by both sides, and they are very afraid of the sun. And if nothing else, there are no dozens of fierce heads gathered in Jinduo Temple, but the people of Yuhu County are too afraid, and they have the opportunity to make a lot of money by spreading falsehoods.
What a stroke of luck!
It's not too much to say that it is good luck!
Previously, on the side of the county guard office, he bargained with the official master who detained and searched for it, and even coaxed and deceived and scared, so he got the promise of the government to pay 5,000 taels of silver, if it was just this bit of silver, even if they went through a lot of hardships and suppressed the ghosts that could not be found in the Jinduo Temple, it was definitely not cost-effective, in case of a casualty, it was not worth it, but in addition to the reward offered by the government office, there was also a large amount of income, which was another sum of silver that the Taishou promised to make, and it was 30,000 taels of silver that the rich pilgrims in the city were willing to make up for it. In this way, it is well worth the risk of taking a trip to the Golden Duo Temple.
I never thought about picking up a big leak in vain.
The man was overjoyed, looked around, and was full of ambition, as long as he cleaned up the ghosts in the side hall, he could go back to his house and ask for the 35,000 taels of silver from the government office.
Sure enough, today is an auspicious day for the zodiac to slay demons and eliminate demons!
Then the two sides began to really shoot, when the girl's copper coins circled around this side hall, one by one erected, when the girl put her fingers together, silently reciting the mantra, they instantly drilled into the ground, the girl's face was slightly pale, looking at her sister.
The young woman nodded, and whispered to the man: "My sister and I will go to the roof first, try the depth of the ghosts, if they are forced out, you will take action immediately, don't let them escape to the temple elsewhere underground, if they can't hide, while the sun is still big, you will simply demolish this side hall." My sister's copper coin can be painted under the ground as a prison, but it can't last long. So when the time comes, you must be quick. β
The man nodded, but just reminded: "Don't worry." β
The two sisters went to the roof of the side hall again, and threw yellow paper talismans into it, occasionally mixed with a precious talisman with a gold-dusted seal pattern.
The young man also took out a bronze mirror, the mirror was tilted, and shone all over the windows of the side hall.
A young scholar in white clothes with a bamboo box on his back was actually sitting on the roof not far away, but he had a secret stele of the Ghost Axe Palace pasted on his body, and with the cultivation of the four people, he naturally couldn't see it.
What followed was a "heart-wrenching" fight.
The black smoke billowed into the sky, even if it was swarmed by the talismans, and the black smoke was scattered by the young woman who was beaten again and again with the demon rope, and the young man burned it with a bronze mirror, and there were even more man's darts penetrating, the black smoke seemed to escape from the cage of the side hall, and it was still raging. After the black mist dispersed by the talisman and the bronze mirror drifted away, it turned into a realm similar to a ghost hitting the wall, and the four of them were deeply trapped in it, even if the girl tried her best to control the talismans, she could only turn into a slender fire dragon, unable to break through the black fog wall that covered the sky and the sun, and let the sunlight pass through it. The master and apprentice were each back to back, already wounded, the girl was hit in the back by a black smoke in order to save the young man holding the mirror, spitting blood, but still struggled to get up, and continued to take out a stack of yellow paper talismans that she drew one by one, pinched and lost the talismans, and finally turned into a talisman fire dragon, not hesitating to exhaust her own aura, but also to surround the four people.
The white-clothed scholar frowned, patted his forehead, and said helplessly: "With your little ability, you dare to come to this Jinduo Temple to subdue demons and eliminate demons, this is still the murderous thing that I have already helped you kill eight or nine times out of ten." β
He smiled and snapped his fingers slightly.
The black smoke, which had lost some kind of prohibition before, suddenly ran and froze, and turned into a fierce ghost with a height of more than a foot on the ground, coupled with the exposure to the sun, and then was finally killed by the four people in danger.
The girl bent over, wiped the blood from the corners of her mouth and nose, and said with a bright smile: "Sister, I didn't hold back this time, did I?!"
The young woman who lived for the rest of her life after the catastrophe walked quickly to her side, supported her sister, who was already unstable, and glared: "What kind of hero, talk less, and recuperate well." β
The young man looked at the ancient mirror in his hand, which had been shattered, and then glanced at the panting master beside him, who was stunned for a moment, and then saw the fierce look in the young man's eyes, hesitated, and nodded slightly.
The man looked around and laughed: "Miss Xining, Quan girl, if you are clear today, it will be clear at a glance, and the demons will be eliminated, why don't we cultivate in the temple for a day today, and then go to the county tomorrow?"
The young woman frowned, "Although it is true that the Jinduo Temple has lost its evil spirit, after all, it is a fierce ghost that has been entrenched for a long time, in case there is a fish that slips through the net, my sister and I have already used up the talisman and are unable to fight again, so it is better to return to the county town as soon as possible." β
The young man shook his head and said: "Sister Xining, if we go early, the county town Taishou will definitely mistakenly think that our demon subjugation is too simple, if we really want to meet a shameless person, five thousand taels of silver is okay to say, black and white, most of us can still take it, but it is difficult to say whether the Taishou will be black-hearted and ignore the 30,000 taels of silver." Let's not only can't go today, but we have to tear down some more temple walls, so that we can get the full reward when we turn back, and we have to deliberately tell the Taishou that the fierce ghosts here have also escaped one or two, and after we take the money, we have to add another 5,000 taels to achieve the elimination of evil. β
The girl rolled her eyes, she quickly covered her mouth and turned her head, vomiting blood again, a little embarrassed.
The young woman thought for a while, nodded and smiled: "That's it, let's go back to the county tomorrow, let's stay in the temple for one night, just so that my sister wants to have a good rest." β
At this moment, a panicked white-clothed scholar ran from the side of the front hall, "Why are there so many white bones on the ground in the front hall of the temple, why can't a single monk see it...... Is there really a demon at work......"
The girl was annoyed by him now, but when she saw that he was still alive, she was a little relieved.
After that, the master and apprentice went to put away the remaining talismans, and put the old glutinous rice back into the bag, which could be used later.
The young woman chose a secluded wing of the temple for wealthy pilgrims to live in and copy the scriptures, and the girl sat cross-legged in the corridor and began to breathe.
Her sister continued to make rounds to avoid any accidents.
The cowardly scholar must follow them, picked the bamboo box, and sat on the steps as a door god.
In the evening, the young woman returned, scavenged some rare books and other items that she looked at were still more valuable, packed them in a large package, and carried them back.
The girl opened her eyes and smiled at the back of the scholar: "It's almost night, and there will be a fierce ghost soon, so why don't you run?"
The white-clothed scholar turned his head and smiled at her: "The book says that people are afraid of ghosts, and ghosts are even more afraid of people's hearts. But I think you're a good person, girl, so it's better to stay with you and not leave. β
The girl thought hard and raised her fist, "Are you praising me or scolding me?
The scholar raised his hands, "The gentleman doesn't move his hands." β
The girl snorted, playful, "I'm not a gentleman, I'm a woman, alas, come, let this girl reward you with a punch, beat you smarter, and you won't be able to get the title of the gold list!"
The man was really a nerd who read stupidly, and even laughed and said: "I see that the girl is fair and fair, and she is kind-hearted, no worse than a gentleman." β
The young woman's face was displeased, "Since Childe is a scholar who claims to be a gentleman, he should know some etiquette for men and women, why do you still stay here with a dead face, is it appropriate?"
The girl felt that the scholar had become wiser again, so she only heard him say: "I am not a gentleman, but a poor scholar, there are really ghosts in the Jinduo Temple, I can't run out to die, it's better to stay here." β
The young woman said sharply: "Get out!"
The girl was about to speak, but was startled by her sister's glare.
The scholar had no choice but to tremble and walk out of the courtyard with the bamboo box.
Most of them are thinking about the wall at the base of the wall?
The girl said softly: "Sister, what are you doing so fiercely, you are a nerd." β
The young woman frowned and said: "You need to recuperate now, you can't make any mistakes, this person appeared on the incense burning road, it is already strange, and following us into the Jinduo Temple, it is even more unusual, if it weren't for him walking on this road before us, let alone words, I wouldn't be vague about him." β
She said softly, "Okay, you continue to rest." β
The girl nodded, but still glancing at the courtyard door.
Her sister laughed angrily: "There are no ghosts anymore, just the five of us, he just sleeps outside in fear, so he doesn't worry about your own sister? Why, when you see that he is a scholar, you are tempted? I told you that this scholar is the most unreliable ...... in the world."
The girl begged: "Okay, okay, I'll practice, practice well!"
The night was dark.
The girl sat on the other side of the corridor, meditating and breathing, and her mind was immersed.
The young woman sat on the steps and rested slightly, not daring to fall asleep.
After all, it's in the Jinduo Temple.
Suddenly, a dart burst through the air from the side of the courtyard gate.
A familiar figure kept striding forward.
Although the young woman was frightened and shocked, she still shook her sleeves and scattered the sharp darts.
A sharp knife was thrown straight at her sister's neck, and it was a young man crouching on the wall.
The young woman let a dart drive into her shoulder, and swept away, grabbing the sharp knife with her hand, which was only two inches from her sister's neck, but the man who was a pure martial artist had already stepped up to her side, and slammed into her temple with a punch that smashed her through the walls and most of the windows, and crashed into the chamber, vomiting blood, and struggling several times, but she could not get up.
The young man jumped off the wall lightly and said with a wicked smile: "Master, can you not kill the girl first, it's best that Sister Xining was also killed, just abolish the hands and feet of these two immortals." β
The man raised his palm, slapped it towards the girl who forcibly interrupted Tuna, shook his head and said, "This little girl is even more tricky, Master will help you keep her sister." β
The young man laughed and said, "Wealth and wealth!"
The man turned his head suddenly, grabbed the girl's neck with one hand, and looked at the gate of the courtyard.
The young man also quickly came to the man's side.
At the gate of the courtyard, a head poked out and said timidly: "The Buddha Gate is pure, you are doing these things, isn't it okay?"
The girl's lips moved slightly, as if she wanted to remind the goose to run quickly.
The man also seemed to see the girl's appearance, and was stunned for a moment, "This good little girl, do you want me to save you?" Don't worry, I'm the most chivalrous person, I've read so many sage books, I can't hide it, I have actually accumulated a belly of heroic righteousness, thousands of miles away......"
The girl tried to shake her head, tears rolling down her cheeks.
The little girl wore two blushes.
It was lovely.
The man's eyes slowly narrowed, and he no longer had that stupid and stupid look, he appeared openly from the courtyard gate, raised his hand, and snapped his fingers, "Come out, some people in the yang world should be eaten by the ghosts of the underworld." β
The master and apprentice, only to see behind the waste scholar, cowered and walked out of a fierce ghost more than a foot tall, and the weight of the anger was far greater than the previous one.
The man let go of the girl's neck for the first time, "Gongzi is actually the ghost king here, it's all a misunderstanding, our master and apprentice actually have no intention of offending your land, they are all these two cultivators, greedy for merit and reward......"
The ghost turned into a cloud of billowing black smoke, enveloping the man in an instant, and suddenly there was a cry of flesh tearing, bones exploding, and his heart-rending cry.
The young man was not even frightened, and he still had the strength to tiptoe, jumped onto the wall, and quickly walked away.
The ghost seemed to have received the edict, let go of the man who had been killed, swept out of the courtyard wall, and chased away, and soon the same tragic movement sounded.
Then a sword light fell from the sky, and the ghost outside wailed, resounding through the heavens and the earth, and it was estimated that it could be heard on the other side of the county town, and it would definitely frighten hundreds of people, but soon the world was silent.
The girl was dumbfounded and asked stupidly, "Are you the ghost king?"
The scholar smiled, sat down on the steps, and asked, "What do you say?"
The girl suddenly said, "Don't eat me yet, I'll go see my sister first." β
The reader nodded, "Okay." β
The girl wanted to glare at him, but when she thought that he was most likely the ghost king of the Jinduo Temple, she hurried to see her sister and helped her out of the house.
The young woman smiled wryly and was speechless, waiting to die.
She could see the movement outside clearly.
The girl looked at the flesh and blood on the ground, her face was complicated, and her eyes were gloomy.
How so?
didn't die at the hands of ghosts, but almost died at the hands of the pair of masters and apprentices who had traveled with them to most of the Huaihuang Kingdom.
They usually look good.
When they came out of the house, the white-clothed scholar had already stood up and walked to the courtyard, but turned to the little girl and said, "Your sister will definitely tell you more firmly in tone, there are always so many bad people in the world. Little girl, you don't have to be disappointed, the world has never been like this, it's right. No matter how many you have seen and encountered, over and over again, one after another, I hope you remember that you are still right. β
The man took out a hat and put it on his head, "You see, the good will repay the wicked, at least it will be true tonight." β
After the man walked out of the courtyard, he suddenly leaned back and said with a bright smile: "Little girl, you are very good-looking, you will definitely be able to find Ruyi Langjun in the future." β
The little girl laughed and wiped the tears from her face, "I hate it!"
The little girl suddenly remembered the golden light, and her eyes sparkled, "You are actually a sword immortal, right?"
The man slowly straightened up and smiled, "I'm a swordsman who is stupid at reading. β
After that, the man turned into a white rainbow and rose from the ground and headed north.
