Wooden guest is a kind of mountain and forest spirit.

"Dayan Sou Shan Tu" records: the wooden guest body is like a human and short, the claws and fingers are sharp like iron hooks, climbing cliffs to help wood, such as walking on the ground, a grasp can break the skull through the brain, causing death.

This kind of little elf will hide in the dark places of the mountains and forests, secretly observe the scholars talking, not only is there no harm, but they can even find the spirit wood in the mountains to trade with humans.

The way of trading is also interesting.

As long as the trust with the wooden guest is obtained, the two sides will agree on the location, and the human beings will put down the iron axe, cotton cloth, salt and other goods, beat the gong and drum and leave, and the next day there will be a spiritual wood in the same place.

When Li Yuan, the founding emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty, conquered the world, he traded with the wooden guests and built a five-toothed dragon-headed ship to conquer the south, which was told by storytellers that it was thrilling.

"That's right..."

Hearing Wang Xuan's inquiry, the old man in the sheepskin jacket smoked a cigarette and nodded: "Let's hold back the treasure business, we have been drilling in the deep mountains and wild forests all the year round, and naturally have a connection with the Muke tribe, and the Xiao family often entrusts me to exchange spiritual wood." ”

"This time the Treasure Pavilion Shangyuan auction, a buyer proposed to ask for a thousand-year-old dragon scale wood, so I asked Qi Ye to help, and entered the deep mountains to exchange with the woodmen, who knew that there was no response for three consecutive days."

"Those wooden guests thought they were hiding secretly, but in fact, the old man knew about his lair, so he took the initiative to go to exchange, who knew that the wooden guests had been wiped out, and they also met a famous evil cultivator, a human butcher."

"You say a human butcher?!"

Guo Luquan's complexion changed, his eyes were cloudy, and he said to Wang Xuan in a deep voice: "The human butcher was originally a butcher, but after killing someone, he went to the rivers and lakes and joined the bloody thieves. My lord, this is not easy, I just heard some news in the hall......"

After he finished speaking, Wang Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly: "You mean, the blood-clothed thief has come to merge with the state?" ”

"Quite possibly."

Guo Luquan said with a solemn face: "My lord, do you remember that the rat was born, there is also a secret method to shuttle in the dragon vein cave, and it may not be impossible for the bloody thief to cross the Jiulongling Mountain Range and come to Bingzhou." ”

After that, he looked at the old man in the sheepskin jacket again, "Brother Yang, Qi Long was injured by zombies, there must be more than one person slaughtering the child, who else did you see?" ”

The old man in the sheepskin jacket is indecent, called Yang Dan, seeing Guo Luquan asking, he pondered for a while and said: "At that time, it was dark and I didn't see clearly, but there were at least more than 30 people, and there were two young people with ghost-like faces, that is, they manipulated zombies and injured Qi Ye... Oh yes, that zombie doesn't seem to be long, but it's very fierce, and Qi Ye also mentioned Taiyinmen. ”

"Taiyin Gate..."

Guo Luquan said thoughtfully: "Those guys offended a few evil cultivators who were good at controlling corpses, and a zombie senior in the door was kidnapped, could it be this one?" ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Wang Xuan and said in a deep voice: "My lord, it seems that the rumors are true, many evil cultivators in the rivers and lakes have joined the bloody robbers, this matter is too big, and it must be reported as soon as possible." ”

Wang Xuan nodded, "Okay, I'll leave early tomorrow morning!"

He didn't think about being strong.

Judging from all kinds of information, there are quite a few so-called bloody thieves, and I am afraid that they have become a prairie fire, and many of them are strange, far from being able to be mixed up by a small military captain.

After making a plan, the master and apprentice of the treasure holder also found a side room to rest, Wang Xuan and Guo Luquan had no sleep, so they drank and chatted in the courtyard.

Thinking of what he had seen recently, Wang Xuan couldn't help but sigh: "This official used to practice with his head covered, but he didn't know that the law lineage of the rivers and lakes was so complicated, and he was really a little unheard of. ”

Guo Luquan said with a smile: "Actually, it's not complicated, the old man has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, so he will explain it in detail for adults." ”

"Not to mention the royal family in the court, among the rivers and lakes, it can be roughly divided into legal lineages and sects. Those who are in the lineage of the law are mainly inherited, and they are inseparable from the three teachings and nine streams, the five elements and eight works. ”

"For example, the Great Yan Daomen is headed by the Taiyi Sect, the Buddhism sect is respected by the Sumeru sect, and Confucianism is naturally the Shanhai Academy."

"There are also legal lineages in all walks of life, such as the soldiers, the feng shui yin and yang family, the Liyuan Tsing Yi Pavilion, the trick-trick Xicai Gate, the Yin Gate where the old man is located, the witch cult hidden in the countryside, the Five Immortal Hall, the thief steals the empty door, and the assassin door steals the door..."

"These lineage inheritances are high and low, the difference is whether there is a true transmission of refining the form and refining the gods, there is a true transmission of the Tao, and there is a Tao and a technique, so that it can last for a long time."

"As for the sects, they can be regarded as organizations, all of which are born for profit, such as the Four Seas Gate, the Pai Jiao who begs for life on the river, and the Jin Yan Pavilion that spies on intelligence......"

Old man Guo drank while talking, talking about the sky, and interjecting some interesting anecdotes about the rivers and lakes from time to time, Wang Xuan was also very interested in listening to it, and he didn't feel sleepy at all.

Suddenly, Ah Fu, who was lying on the ground, moved his ears, got up suddenly, and made a snoring sound from his mouth.

Wang Xuan's face sank: "There is a large piece of murderous aura coming from the north, all of them are up to copy the guys, Guo Lao, go and inform the shopkeeper!" ”

"Tonight, I'm afraid there's big trouble..."

………

Knock knock!

The hurried knock on the door woke everyone in the Jin family class suddenly.

"Who?!"

The strong man Chunsheng grabbed the weapon and said in a deep voice, and the others were also on guard.

The rivers and lakes are sinister, although they are in the Four Seas Inn, they still rent a large bunk, sleep with clothes, men and women are separated, and the house is full of sweat.

Walking the rivers and lakes is never enjoyable.

A man's hurried voice came from outside the door, "Everyone, there is a demon attacking, and the shopkeeper informs everyone to gather in the hall to fight against the strong enemy." ”

Everyone suddenly changed color and looked at each other.

The Four Seas Inn itself has guards, and it needs guests to defend against the enemy together, so it is not an ordinary thief.

The head of the class, Jin Baichuan, was shocked in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Copy the guy, Turin wake up, listen to the teacher's orders, and adapt to the situation!" ”

"Yes, master!"

When the group went out of the room, they saw that there were people coming out of the doors of each corridor, and there were no less than 100 people gathered in the hall, and there was a lot of noise.

Jin Jiaban and the others colored each other and also came to the hall.

Wang Xuan naturally arrived with his subordinates, standing with a gun, and Guo Luquan next to him was also whispering to the shopkeeper.

"Master, it's the dog officer..."

The strong man Chunsheng's face changed, and as soon as he said half a sentence, he was interrupted by Jin Baichuan's glare.

Wang Xuan naturally also noticed the people in the Jin family's class, but he didn't pay attention to it, but looked at the group of people who came out on the left.

They were the other guests in the small courtyard above.

And acquaintances.

One group was Meng Xiong, the military captain of the evil mansion in Shanyin County, and several subordinates, and on the other side was a middle-aged man in a white robe with a handsome face, followed by two small servants.

Meng Xiong stood sideways beside the white-robed middle-aged man, with respect and flattery on his face, obviously knowing each other.

"Yo, Captain Wang, what a coincidence."

Meng Xiong's eyes flickered when he saw Wang Xuanhou, and he squeezed out a smile on his face and said, "Captain Wang is also going to report on his work, do you know what happened?" ”

"There is a demon attacking, it is estimated that it is a blood-clothed thief."

Wang Xuan's face was calm, but he realized something in his heart.

This guy also went to Fucheng in advance, obviously knowing a lot of insiders, as well as the middle-aged man, his identity is estimated to be unusual.

"Bloody robbers?!"

The whole hall suddenly exploded.

Some were suspicious, others were terrified.

The hall was not full of people from the rivers and lakes, but also some family members who followed the caravan, some merchants looked dazed, and some women held children with pale faces.

The white-robed middle-aged man also changed his face, and said sharply: "The blood-clothed thief is far away in Huaizhou, where did your Excellency get the news, isn't it nonsense?" ”

Idiot!

Wang Xuan's eyes were cold, and he didn't bother to pay attention.

The shopkeeper of this Sihaimen Inn stepped forward and arched his hand: "Steward Zhao, Captain Wang's words are true, Lord Qi of the Jing Demon Division has seen it with his own eyes..."

After a brief description, he said in a deep voice: "I have sent a guy to investigate, but no message has been sent back so far, I am afraid that I have been killed." ”

When it comes to the inn and its surroundings, no one can compare to the shopkeeper, so after his words, no one doubts it.

"Human butcher? And evil cultivators..."

The middle-aged man Zhao's face changed again and again, and he said fiercely: "It must be the stupidity of the Jing Demon Division that has caused trouble, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time, Meng Xiong, let's go!" ”

"Yes, yes, let's go!"

The first to echo was not Meng Xiong, but several caravan guards, who rushed out without saying a word, leaving the merchant patron whose face changed drastically.

At the moment of the catastrophe, the morality of the rivers and lakes has become.

Zhang Heng's face was ugly, and he said in a low voice: "My lord, these guys are not evenly matched, and they can't organize resistance at all, what should I do?" ”

Wang Xuan's face was calm and he didn't speak, but suddenly turned his head, stared at a few guys next to the shopkeeper, and said coldly: "They can't leave at all, right?" ”

"There are traitors!"

The shopkeeper's face changed, and he waved his hand and grabbed a few guys, his claws were like the wind, rolling up the yin wind and whistling, obviously the kung fu was quite deep.

"Hee-hee-hee......"

The other guys were swept out by the palm wind, but only one guy easily dodged and jumped up to the second floor like a ghost.

Although he is a man, his movements are bewitching with a woman, sitting on the railing, his legs dangling leisurely, and his voice has changed to a coquettish female voice: "You little lieutenant is interesting, how did you find me?" ”

Wang Xuan's face was calm: "I didn't find out, it's just a trick..."
