Ten days later, in the southwest of Songlan Mansion, on an official road outside Qian'an City, more than a dozen red-armored knights were escorting three carriages slowly.

Each of these red-armored knights was extraordinary, and a strong innate true qi couldn't stop overflowing, and it turned out to be a group of innate martial arts sects.

The face of the leader is like a heavy jujube, and there is an unsheathed long sword hanging from his waist, the sword body is shining with cold light, and there is a faint spiritual light, but it is a high-grade magic sword.

This team of red-armored knights is a famous red dragon rider of the Great Gu Heavenly Dynasty, who is specially responsible for protecting the high-ranking officials and nobles of the imperial court, and the leader is a red dragon captain.

As twilight gradually fell, the official road was sparsely populated, and a ruined temple suddenly appeared in the distance.

"My lord, it's getting late, let's find a place to stay, and when we get up early tomorrow and hurry, we should be able to get to Qian'an City." The Red Dragon Captain sent his horse to the carriage and whispered inside.

A middle-aged man's voice suddenly came from the carriage in a cold tone: "Well, this official knows, please ask Captain Jiang to see if there is a suitable place to settle nearby." ”。

Hearing this, Captain Chilong immediately replied: "My lord, there is a ruined temple a few miles ahead, which is just used for a night's rest. ”

"Well, let's go to the temple and rest for the night."

"Yes, sir."

After speaking, Captain Chilong patted his horse and left, and then ordered his knights to whip their horses quickly

As a result, the team immediately sped up a few points.

After a short time, the convoy came to the ruined temple and stopped in the open space outside the temple.

From the carriage stepped down a majestic, rich white-faced old man, next to the old man holding a thin veil to cover her face, the woman was graceful, and the fragrance struck people.

A group of red dragon riders surrounded the old man and walked to the door of the earthen temple, but saw the fire flashing inside. There was a faint sound of laughter and fighting.

"Come on, go in and have a look." Seeing this, Captain Jiang's face immediately sank, and he ordered the knight next to him.

One person immediately received the order, rushed into the temple first, and walked out after a while, clenching his fists and resuming his life:

"The captain is just three passers-by in a hurry. The subordinates have already interrogated him. One is a medicine seller, one is a scholar who is powerless, and the last one is a scholar's scholar. ”

"Well, even so, let's go inside! After a day's journey, everyone was tired. After hearing this, the white-faced old man immediately commanded.

"Yes, sir."

When Captain Jiang saw the adults speak, he immediately waved his hand and motioned for his subordinates to go in.

Then, a group of knights surrounded the white-faced old man and the tulle woman into the ruined temple, only to see that under the altar in front of the earthen temple, two fires, one large and one small, had been lit.

Among them, there was a handsome young scholar sitting next to the fire, who was immersed in his book and writing, and seemed not to notice that a group of uninvited guests had come to the temple.

Next to him was a half-grown scholar with two-horned sideburns, who was limp throwing twigs into the fire.

In addition, next to the small fire, there is a middle-aged man with a beard wearing a yellow cloth coat, with a yellow face and thin muscles, thief eyebrows and mouse eyes, and he does not look like a good person at first glance.

The middle-aged man with the eight-character beard held a handful of incense sticks, lit them by the fire, and then inserted them one by one into the ground near his feet, forming a five-foot circle and surrounding himself in the middle.

Immediately, a faint smell of sandalwood permeated the temple.

When the other knights walked into the earthen temple, Captain Jiang gave an order, and all the knights immediately skillfully divided labor and cooperated, some cleared the open space, some went out to find firewood, and some unloaded bedding, tables and stools, lacquered boxes, tea sets and many other objects from the carriage.

In a short time, the fire was lit, and the dry items were placed one by one, and the old man and the tulle woman both entered the banquet, and in front of them were a dozen exquisite dishes, and there was even a pot of sake beside them.

At this time, the Red Dragon Knight took out some jerky from his body and ate it quietly as well.

The Red Dragon Guard is worthy of being an elite, and they are all well-trained.

"Captain Jiang, we have a lot of food here, and we can't finish eating, so why don't we come over and eat some together." The gauzy woman's eyes swept away, and Captain Jiang, who was dressed in armor, suddenly said with a smile.

"Thank you Madame for your kindness, my subordinates still eat with my brothers." After Captain Jiang glanced at her, he shook his head and refused.

"Hehe, the concubine is not reluctant to be a lieutenant. Master, let's eat! Seeing this, the gauzy woman didn't get angry, but just gently pushed the white-faced old man next to her and said softly.

"Well, what Madame said is, let's eat!" This is the white-faced old man who just woke up from a dream, and suddenly said in a low tone.

After about half an hour, the old man and the tulle woman had finished eating, and the leftovers of lettuce had been removed, and the red dragoons scattered around the two of them, sat cross-legged on the ground, and began to close their eyes and breathe.

At this moment, the young scholar who was fascinated by reading suddenly burst out laughing, and praised it repeatedly: "Wonderful, wonderful! People and ghosts have different paths, good and evil are rewarded! Daoist Zhao actually killed another ghost.

The ancients have their own Yan Ruyu in the cloud book, but who knows that the beauty is a painted skin demon!

By the way, this awakening spell also has to be written, and some people in the province are not distinguished. ”

The middle-aged man at the fire on the other side seemed to be startled by the scholar's voice, and looked up in a daze.

At this time, the two-horned scholar next to the scholar suddenly seemed to be energetic, and he dropped the branch in his hand, and shouted with disgust: "Hey, uncle, don't you think this place stinks to death!" Besides, you don't care? Anyway, if something from outside rushes in. Later, Lao Tzu will not stop him. ”

This scholar's face is immature, but his voice is unusually old-fashioned, and his tone is old and hoarse, like an old man who has experienced vicissitudes.

"No, there's movement outside!"

As soon as the words fell, Captain Jiang's face changed, and he suddenly jumped up from the ground with a shout, and at the same time pulled out the magic sword at his waist, held it in front of him, and then stared at the temple gate with an expressionless face.

At this moment, there was silence outside the temple, and no figure appeared.

But in the next second, there was a sudden crackling outside the temple gate, and the ground trembled slightly, as if countless small animals had gathered outside, and crawled around the broken temple.

The night was dark, the wall next to the door, and the roof leaked at the mouth suddenly revealed out of thin air a pair of blood-colored eyes, full of greed and hunger.

Seeing this, Captain Jiang's sword eyebrows gradually rose upside down, and suddenly the magic sword in his hand moved, and three white sword lights shot out, passing through the door in a flash.

A squeak screamed out, and the bloody eyes outside the temple disappeared in an instant.

At the same time, the other red dragon knights drew their weapons one after another, and protected the white-faced old man with a serious expression and retreated behind the altar.

After the blow, Captain Jiang turned his head violently, raised his sword and pointed at the three scholars, and shouted: "Who are you waiting for?" Dare to attack the imperial court officials, aren't you afraid of being punished by the nine clans? ”

Seeing this, the scholar jumped three feet high in anger, crossed his waist and roared back arrogantly: "Boy, you don't use a broken sword to scare Lao Tzu, although Lao Tzu is a tiger in Pingyang, but it is not something that can be bullied by a small cultivation of qi refining." In addition, it is not Lao Tzu or the two who want to deal with you, but the scumbag who recognizes the demon as his father. ”

Captain Jiang's expression changed slightly when he heard this, and then the white-faced old man who was being protected behind the altar suddenly spoke: "Well, Captain Jiang, don't easily listen to other people's nonsense, these three suspicious deeds must be in a group." Don't hurry up and take it off quickly. ”

"Your Excellency, get out of here quickly." Captain Jiang stared at the scholar, the scholar and the middle-aged man, and shouted without looking back.

"Hehe, without Uncle Ben's permission, no one wants to leave this place alive."

At this time, the middle-aged Lang Zhong sent a message with a smile, and his pair of mustaches looked strange and ridiculous.

But as the sound of rustling outside sounded again, dense bloody eyes resurfaced, and most of the people present couldn't laugh if they wanted to.

Because at this moment, a foul smell poured into the temple with gusts of cold wind, and the air was quickly filled with a strong fishy stench.

Suddenly,

The middle-aged man lay on the ground violently, a large number of gray and black coarse hairs quickly grew all over his body, his head began to twist and deform, his jaw protruded forward, his two front teeth protruded from his lips, which looked huge and sharp, and his mustache also suddenly spread out, like a rat's whisker.

At first glance, this man looks like a rat spirit reincarnated.

Squeak squeak!

At this moment, countless gray-haired rats the size of cats poured into the temple from all directions, such as doorways, walls, cracks, roofs, etc.

Countless rats were huddled next to each other, and there seemed to be a large gray blanket on the floor wall. The blanket sticks out of the dense rat head, and a dense blood light blinks on it.

The rat blanket slowly wriggled and approached the crowd. The open space in the temple is rapidly decreasing visibly to the naked eye.

"Stand back, sir!"

"The red dragoon set up a formation, and immediately escorted the lord to rush out."

"Watch out for that rat and rat demon outside! I shouted one, two, three, and everyone rushed out together. ”

Captain Jiang was in danger, and hurriedly retreated in front of everyone, while commanding in a hurry, the magic sword in his hand suddenly burst into dazzling brilliance, and in an instant, he slashed out continuously, only to see pieces of sword light swaying out.

But this time, the target was not the rat swarm in front of them, but the wall behind them.

Just as the temple wall collapsed, the human rat squeaked and screamed in a depraved manner.

In the next moment, around the ruined temple, a large number of gray-haired mice on the ground wall jumped up at the same time, and they were afraid to bite everyone present.

"Get out of the way!" Immediately, from the other side of the temple, the two-horned scholar shouted in disgust, stretched out his white and tender fist, and punched out hard.

Bang!

I saw a huge demonic fist light swept out, and countless gray squirrels bore the brunt, and as soon as they touched the fist light, they were strangled into flesh out of thin air by the hidden surging fist power, and a large open space was cleared in an instant.

However, these gray-haired rats were all fearless of life and death, and under the control of the leader, they rushed to the two-horned scholar even more fearlessly.

Hey!

Seeing this, the two-horned scholar only felt a vicious anger coming up, hey a strange laugh, sat on the horse with a heavy waist, and blasted out with a punch, the fist light was like a thick pillar of light, and he rushed out unstoppably, emptying all the rats in front of him.

Not only that, but even the entire temple wall was blasted out of a huge hole more than one person high by the pillar of light, and after the pillar of light broke through the temple wall, it still had the strength to plow the ground into a three-foot-wide pit of earth, and at the same time disappeared far into the deep night.

This punch seemed to consume a large part of the strength of the two-horned scholar.

After punching, his little face suddenly turned white, and then he suddenly turned his head and shouted at the scholar: "Master, Lao Tzu only has the power of one punch." Now you either want to unlock Lao Tzu's ban, or hurry up. Otherwise, we'll all die here tonight. There's a big guy out there! ”

After listening to this, the Qingxiu scholar said without raising his head: "You block it first, my 'Yinshan Huai Grandma' has just written a beginning, and I can't stop writing." ”

"Damn, Lao Tzu is really moldy for eight lifetimes, and he actually deceived you!" Seeing this, the scholar scolded loudly, and his body couldn't help but slowly retreat backwards.

Compared to this side, the other side is the main battlefield, and the target of the middle-aged human mouse is the incoming county lord.

With a few loud "boom" and "boom", the walls on both sides of the temple were cracked open, and dense gray-haired rats poured in from the gap.

A very small number of gray squirrels are much larger than their companions, almost the same size as ordinary wolf dogs, and they exude a faint demonic aura all over their bodies, and they are actually first-order demon rats.

As soon as these first-order demon rats appeared, they took the initiative to find the Red Dragon Rider and immediately joined the battle.

The Red Dragon Knights are all innate martial arts sects, and each of them can barely deal with one or two first-order demon rats, and any more of them will be reduced to rat blood food.

Captain Jiang wielded his magic sword, and one after another sword light slashed out like a blade, and each sword could be emptied, but there were too many mice in front of him, even if he killed more, the number of mice in front of him still did not decrease at all.

At this moment, a sharp rat cry suddenly came from the darkness near the ruined temple.

Hearing this, the rats immediately became more furious and even more fearless of death.

The black shadow flickered, and the human mouse actually killed it in person, the strength of this flirt was not low, the action was as fast as the wind, the claw shadows were flying, and the demon power was like the wind following the shadow, and he actually stopped Captain Jiang with his own strength, and beat him back and forth.

In the blink of an eye, the white-faced old man and the others had to retreat to the temple, and the situation was precarious.

Creak!

A black light broke through the night, fell outside the temple gate, and turned into a black-haired mouse about a foot long.

This rat is petite, his eyes are cunning and smart, his black hair is as smooth as silk, and his body is full of demonic energy, and he is a second-order demon rat comparable to Zhuji.

As soon as he saw the main lord appear, Captain Jiang's face changed wildly, and he shouted: "It's not good, my lord, take out the official seal quickly." ”

At this moment, the white-faced old man seemed to have heard nothing, and remained expressionless in place, motionless, but he remembered to hold the arm of the tulle woman.

When Captain Jiang saw this, he was anxious, "My lord, it's too late, take out the official seal!" The official seal has the blessing of national fortune on it, and it is the nemesis of all demons and evils. ”

At this time, Zhao Sheng put down the brush, stood up, and stretched his waist before he spoke: "Don't shout!" You guarded all the way along the way, didn't you see that the woman had a ghost? Your adult has long been a puppet plaything. ”

As he finished saying this, a powerful momentum gradually rose on his body, and a red light suddenly shot out from the center of his eyebrows, and after flying into the air, it expanded countless times in an instant, evolving into a huge nine-petal flame red lotus, which instantly attracted everyone's attention.

"What?!"

"Squeak!"

"Ah, it's the Karmic Fire Red Lotus!"

"My lord, we are saved! Scholar... No, the master is actually the Red Lotus Walker of the State Religion. ”

Looking at the ecstatic, surprised, and frightened faces, Zhao Sheng suddenly smiled slightly, and turned his gaze to the silent tulle woman.

"I wanted to wait for the little mouse to throw himself into the net, but I didn't expect to hit the rabbit with grass, and a ghost cultivator took the initiative to send it to the door. Wonderful! The saying of luck is really wonderful! ”
