The waves are rippling on the sun, the frogs are singing in the reeds nearby, and the gulls are flying between the water and the sky in the distance. A fisherman's boat swung along the reeds and slowly moved towards the depths of the lake.

Half a day later, the lake was hazy and hazy, obscuring the day, and suddenly I didn't know the east, west, north and south, and I didn't hear the frogs chirping and the birds chirping, only the light sound of the oars plucking the water, which was so quiet that it made people feel uneasy.

But the boat did not hesitate, as if it had been guided silently, and all the way through the thick haze, and after a few moments it came out, and a large island in the middle of the lake appeared in front of it.

The island is densely wooded, but the shore of the lake is rocky and rocky, and there is almost no place to settle on the shore. Moreover, the shore is rough and the underwater reefs are dense, and once the ordinary boat approaches, it will be overturned and crushed.

However, in the face of this ordinary island, the boat was very dexterous, avoiding all the reefs, lifting the weight on the ebb and flow of the tide, and finally came to a gorge full of sharp and intricate rocks.

The mouth of the gorge was dark and cold, and there was an indescribable suction force that brought the boat into the deep darkness.

When the light was restored, the boat came to a dark river crossing, the walls were flanked by torches, but the flames emitted an eerie green light.

Jiang Ru opened the curtain and walked to the bow of the boat, and now she changed into a long aqua green silk dress, wearing flowers and branches, her face was delicate, but her demeanor was a little disdainful, and she said when she landed on the boat:

"Isn't it okay to meet somewhere else? If you have to come to this place, Ren Wangchao wants to learn from the ghost of Montenegro? With his little ability, he summoned the masters of all the mountains, and really felt that he could be elected as the master of ghosts and gods? ”

"Fairy Qin, I haven't seen you for many years, but the more beautiful and moving."

On the shore there was a thin old man carrying a lantern, dressed in a shabby cloak and looking like a skeleton.

"Bad luck! Why are you soul keepers? Carrying a white lantern, who is the funeral for? Jiang Ru held a fan to cover her mouth and nose.

"Hehehe, I'm smiling." The thin old man looked up and down and said, "Fairy Qin is doing better than us, and even the silk yarn woven by the mermaids in the sea is used. ”

"Take care of your tricks! If you look at it again, believe it or not, I dug it up and fed it to the fish? Jiang Ru's eyes turned into demonic vertical pupils, and he glared fiercely.

The thin old man bowed slightly: "It's rude, the banquet inside has been prepared, Fairy Qin, please come in." ”

Jiang Ru snorted coldly, and the cuff incense wind went straight in. After she walked away, the thin old man scolded in a low voice: "The mountain is beautiful! I always feel that I can be compared with the Jiang family, and I don't look at the behavior of the nouveau riche, and wearing shark silk is also a vulgar fan! ”

Passing through the long corridor and coming to the end, Jiang Ru showed the tortoiseshell token he was carrying, and the guards who looked like living corpses looked at each other, and after confirming that it was correct, they got out of the way.

Jiang Ru's heart relaxed slightly, It seems that the back hand that her mother prepared in the past really has an occasion to use it now.

When Liang Tao patrolled the realm with a sword, he punished evil and slashed demons along the way, Jiang Ru's mother fell in love with this person, but she did not dedicate herself to refuge at the first time, but took advantage of his approaching time to fight with another group of mountain fox demons to lead him closer.

According to his mother, Liang Tao was brave and took the initiative to assist the Jiang family in defeating the mountain fox demons, and his mother was willing to take the initiative to serve Liang Tao in the name of repaying her kindness. And provided Liang Tao with the location of many demon lairs, so that he could kill the demon evil.

As for the fox demon who intended to invade Jiang's cave mansion, they were uprooted by Liang Tao and his mother. But Jiang Ru's mother kept an eye on it, and afterwards arranged for the clansmen to pretend that she was still alive, and later took the opportunity to connect with the local demons in Qingyan County.

It can be said that after the Jiang family took refuge in the Yongjia Liang family, in addition to serving as an attendant, he was also responsible for helping to detect the movements of demons and evil in the shadows. At the beginning, Jiang Ru was able to easily enter and exit the ghost market, which was due to the previous reasons.

Jiang Ru's fake "Qin Fairy" is also inseparable from the Jiang family's secret operation for many years, and maintains a close contact with the demons in the south of Huaxu Kingdom, so that he can blend in with this occasion where the evil gathers.

On this island in Yanglan Ze, there is a cave in the sky, and the dark river is dense, and many corpses and filth pour into it with the current. Over the years, the filthy and turbid aura has been stagnant, and ghosts are naturally gathered.

In the past two hundred years, the ghost thing that occupies this cave calls himself Ren Wangchao, he took advantage of the chaos at the end of the summer, attracted a group of evil cultivators, participated in the law of the ghost road, and chiseled this cave into the Yin Mansion, calling himself the ghost king of the cave.

But before he could make a big move, Liang Tao killed the ghost cave of Montenegro, which was in the limelight at that time, and swept away the domineering Montenegrin ghost handsome, together with the cloud ghost army under his command, so frightened that Ren Wangchao quickly lost the name of the ghost king, retracted back to the Yin Hades, and suddenly did not see the light of day for decades.

It was not until a little stability in recent years that Ren Wangchao resurfaced, actively clinging to the children of Chongxuanguan, and at the same time did not forget to contact the demons and ghosts in various places, and their ears and eyes spread half of Huaxu Kingdom.

Ren Wangchao's power is not too strong, but it is better to be well-informed, and this time it is he to warn the ghosts and spirits of Qingyan County, so that they can withdraw in time to avoid being punished one by one.

"Ren Wangchao, this old ghost, has rarely operated in Qingyan County in the past, and it has always been the territory of the old tree head of the white cane, why did he suddenly show his courtesy?"

Jiang Ru came to the cave of the underworld, the ghost fire hovered above as a lamp and candle, and all kinds of strange-shaped demons and spirits gathered below, among which there were also a few left-handed evil cultivators and side-door scum, exchanging cups and discussing important matters with non-human aliens.

Jiang Ru, on the other hand, pretended to be ordinary, looking around and listening to the evil words of the crowd while being on guard.

"He wants to become the co-master of this ghost and god by virtue of the warning work, right? Didn't you notice? This time, the colleagues in Qingyan County withdrew so quickly, and the monks of Huaxu Kingdom didn't even catch a hair! ”

"Could it be...... The old tree head has long colluded with Ren Wangchao in private? ”

"Perhaps! Although the old tree head enjoys the flourishing incense in the name of the white cane prince, there are few top-notch apprentices and grandchildren under his hands. However, Ren Wangchao, who has accumulated the Yin and Netherworld, recruited ghost monks in the early years, pushed a broken exercise to the general appearance, and recruited disciples, and his power should not be underestimated! ”

"Those leaning skeletal lantern monks?"

"They call themselves the soul officials of the underworld, and they used to subdue the dead souls and resentful spirits in various places, saying that they were taking care of chores for the Chongxuan Pavilion. The nostrils of the Chongxuan Pavilion were naturally happy not to have to work, but they didn't expect that the soul officials would collect the ghosts and use them specifically to refine the magic weapon. ”

"That Ren Wangchao's mana is more handsome than the ghost of Montenegro back then, which is higher or lower?"

"This ...... Ren Wangchao hasn't made a move for many years, and I can't say. ”

Just as the group of evil people were chatting, the light flashed on the high platform not far away, attracting the attention of all parties. I saw an old man with a long beard and a green robe, with a pestle and a white cane in his hand, and next to him was a majestic man wearing a brocade robe with a wave pattern, but his face was blue and his complexion seemed to be poor.

But considering that the people who appear here are nothing more than goblins and spirits, even if they change their human form, they also have the appearance of being different from ordinary people.

"Fellow travelers, I've been waiting for a long time." The blue-faced man raised his voice and said, "In Xia Ren Wangchao, it is the lord of the Yin and Hades here. Today, we invite colleagues from all walks of life to come here, which is to discuss a countermeasure for our future prospects, so that we can advance and retreat together and share weal and hardship! ”

This is a nice thing to say, but it's a pity that the demons and evil present have their own thoughts. Although the evil spirits have had contacts in the past, they are far from being of one heart and one mind, but they are secretly dividing their own territory. Because it is not uncommon for heaven and earth treasures and cave territory to fight each other.

"Expect these guys to go through and die together? You don't have any grace and punishment, these words are empty talk. Jiang Ru sneered in her heart.

Immediately, a fat and bloated demon in the audience shouted: "Lord of the Yin Mansion, I'm afraid the future you said has little to do with us, right?" Not everyone present has the incense offerings of the City God Temple, and it would be good to have a small temple in the market town, villages, streets and alleys. Some of them can't get out of the way, at most a roadside shrine! ”

As soon as these words came out, they immediately aroused echoing voices, and for a while, the audience was full of strange screams and restless atmosphere.

Jiang Ru sneered when he saw this, demons and evil are only demons after all, even if they conspire to do big things, they only covet the small profits in front of them, even if they are aware of personnel, most of them are undetermined and useless.

Ren Wangchao raised his hand slightly, and the ghost fire in the cave was great, and the majestic momentum suddenly subdued all the restless sounds, which could be regarded as revealing his cultivation mana.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the future I am talking about is naturally to allow you to enjoy incense offerings for a long time." Ren Wangchao said: "My generation is out of the day and night, sneaking into the netherworld, it is not suitable to be a public enemy with the Huaxu State Government, there are small twists and turns at the moment, but I want to come to the government The action will not last too long, just take this opportunity to recuperate and prepare a strategy." ”

"The words of the Lord of the Yin Mansion are really to increase the morale of others and destroy his own prestige!" At this time, there was a person in the audience who let out a few flattering laughs, it was Jiang Ru, she found that she had an opportunity, and immediately spoke: "What is not suitable for openly being an enemy of the Huaxu State Government?" I think the lord of the Yin Mansion is not as handsome as the ghost of Montenegro back then! Let's pack up our things as soon as possible and go back to our respective homes! ”

Ren Wangchao's eyebrows narrowed slightly, stared at Jiang Ru and asked, "I don't know if Your Excellency is ......?"

"Shuyun Cave, Qin Miaoyin." Jiang Ru moved out of her fake identity and shook the fan gently, revealing half of her fox face with heavy makeup.

"It turned out to be the Qin Fairy of Shuyun Cave, and I have been looking up for a long time." Ren Wangchao arched his hand and said.

"Shuyun Cave Qin Miaoyin? Is it the group of fox demons who were beaten by Liang Tao and collapsed the cave mansion? The demons in the cave whispered.

"Back then, the Jiang family took refuge in Liang Tao, and they were both fox demons, Qin Miaoyin probably hated Chongxuan Pavilion to the core, right?"

"In the final analysis, it's nothing more than jealousy that someone has fallen into an immortal family, and he has to be miserable in the mountains."

Hearing these whispers, Jiang Ru pretended to have a ruthless expression and glanced at the past, and the fan covered her mouth and made a low roaring sound, full of wild and unfading demons.

"Fairy Qin, don't be annoyed." The long-bearded old man on the stage spoke: "We are not waiting for our own selfish interests, you need to know that this time is not as good as in the past, the system of the Huaxu State Pavilion is already complete, even after the Great War of the Five Kingdoms, there are many losses, but there are also peak masters such as Liang Guoshi, and there are gradually outstanding people among the younger generation."

And the ghost commander of Montenegro coincided with the troubled times, with soldiers everywhere and countless dead, so that he could summon a fierce and monstrous ghost army. But even so, they still lost the hands of Liang Guoshi, which shows that we must not openly confront Huaxu State. ”

When Bai Cane Gong said this, he somewhat satirized Ren Wangchao next to him, implying that he was not as handsome as the ghost of Montenegro back then.

"Liang Guoshi, you can't deal with it, just one Zhao Huang can scare you like this?" Jiang Ru sneered: "I heard that this person is in such a remote place as Xinglong County, but if he kills a rat demon, the White Cane Gong will drag his family and flee to this Yin and Hades Mansion?" The incense of the past few hundred years has been eaten in vain? ”

The identity of the white cane is slightly special, it is the god of rituals in the Tianxia Dynasty, the situation in the late Tianxia is chaotic, it is less and less restrictive, looking at the prosperity of the gods of the various rural temples, he also began to rely on mana, good at Weifu.

If you really want to talk about cultivation as mana, the White Cane Gong is also one of the best among the ghosts, gods and demons here.

"After all, Zhao Xiao came on the orders of the imperial court." This time, it was Ren Wangchao's turn to speak: "Their Wukui army wants to raise money and food for the war, so they will inevitably have to use some means, but I didn't expect it to move to your incense offerings."

Moreover, many of the colleagues present have dealings with Chongxuan Pavilion, and the open guns and hidden arrows in the court of Huaxu Kingdom will inevitably affect the red dust of the world. When I learned that Zhao Huang dared to make a move on the Xinglong County order, I immediately knew that the situation was wrong, so I contacted my colleagues in Qingyan County, and I was able to avoid a catastrophe. ”

"But our current altar throne has been demolished!" Some ghosts, gods and demons complained fiercely: "Can the Lord of the Yin Mansion know that this is how many years of hard work this has been? Once the temple is fell, our foundation will be uprooted! ”

As soon as this statement came out, there were many echoing words.

"Everyone, everyone! Listen to me! Ren Wangchao could only try his best to control the scene: "I know the current situation, but have you ever thought that Wu Kuijun did this because he was instructed by the Lord of Huaxu Country, and of course we suffered a great loss, but was the Chongxuan Pavilion unscathed?"

Absolutely not! Chongxuanguan, especially Liang Guoshi, could not sit idly by and watch this happen. In the past, we formed an alliance with Chongxuanguan, which benefited many of their children, could it be that he, Liang Guoshi, would sit back and watch many of his children being imprisoned by the imperial court for questioning? ”

"Lord of the Yin Mansion, don't talk big." Jiang Ru added another fire: "Could it be that Liang Guoshi will openly oppose the court and the lord of the country for us?" ”

The white cane prince waved his hand and said: "This is what Fairy Qin doesn't know, the old man has had several relationships with Liang Guoshi, and he has a lot of praise for our past dedication. ”

"That's not all!" Ren Wangchao added: "Zhao Xiao, who is now opening the altar in Qingyan County, is from the Huaiying Pavilion, and has always been at odds with Liang Guoshi's Chongxuan Pavilion. ”

Jiang Ru was overjoyed, and was worried about how to lead the topic to Zhao Huang, but he didn't expect this guy to speak first, so he said angrily: "You are so anxious to hug Chongxuanguan's thigh, so why don't you just pounce on that Zhao Huang and cut it with a thousand knives?" It's good to make a modest contribution to Liang Guoshi! Maybe Liang Guoshi will be happy and clean up the imperial palace so that you can return to the altar and throne? ”
