Volume 1 Autumn Rite Chapter 3 The Monk in the Broken Alley

Xunyang Houfu.

A yard planted with a variety of exotic flowers and plants.

Jiang Wang lay on the rattan chair, squinting his eyes.

Thinking very seriously about the scenes when facing the monster Xuan Hao and Su Lingyi.

He's pretty much sure.

It is when there is a great threat to oneself that that force appears.

To fully control that power, he had to constantly put himself in danger.

According to his weak body, it seems to be a very simple thing to encounter danger.

He even wondered if this power was already in his body.

It's just that they were protected at home before, not allowed to go out, and had no chance to encounter danger, otherwise wouldn't this force have appeared very early?

He'd been studying the knife for the past two days, and he hadn't found anything special at all, and if it wasn't for the knife, there would have been only one possibility.

At present, the only maid in the Hou Mansion, carrying a big long sword at this time, walked from outside the courtyard with a disgraced face, and called softly, "Childe." ”

Jiang Wang glanced at her sideways, "Xiaoyu, the girl's family should be reserved, don't always dance with knives and guns, look at your appearance as if you are rolling in a mud puddle, how can you be worthy of the identity of the head of my Hou Mansion." ”

Xiao Yu stretched out his hand to wipe his face, threw away the big long sword in his hand, and directly cut off the leg corners of the rattan chair.

Jiang Wang was so frightened that he rolled up his legs and scolded, "I'm going to die in your hands sooner or later!" ”

Although Xiaoyu's face is dirty, he can still vaguely see that his appearance is good, his body is plump, he is not very old, and he is already slim.

It's just that the look in that eye is really cold, so Jiang Wang doesn't dare to look at it.

"What's the matter?"

Xiao Yu said softly: "Childe said that I found the peerless cheats for me, I have practiced it for so long, and it is useless, you won't be lying to me, right?" ”

Jiang Wang closed his eyes and said lightly: "How can it be useless, you almost killed me several times with a big long sword, besides, since it is a peerless secret book, how can you easily practice it, you have to be patient." ”

Although Xiao Yu felt that this was very reasonable, he always felt that something was wrong.

How can there be any peerless cheats, only teach sword wielding, and have no other tricks?

Looking at the little fish that seemed to have been fooled for a while, Jiang Wang was actually very melancholy.

Three years ago, he secretly ran out of the Hou Mansion and wandered around Qixia Street.

Encountered a small fish that seemed to be being hunted and killed.

That was also the first time Jiang Wang had seen a monk.

At that time, he felt that Xiaoyu was not simple.

After all, he was hunted down by a rumored monk.

If it weren't for the old housekeeper who appeared in time and hid with Jiang Wang and Xiaoyu.

I'm afraid they won't be able to live.

The purpose of Xiaoyu's martial arts practice is naturally to take revenge.

But although she seems to be cold and intelligent, she is actually a bit silly.

He actually wanted to fight the monks by practicing martial arts!

Jiang Wangzi would not let Xiaoyu die.

But in order to let Xiaoyu have the goal of forging ahead, she deliberately made the so-called peerless cheats for her to practice.

Obviously a simple stupid girl, but all day long thinking about how to kill the monk.

It's really out of the ordinary.

What convinced Jiang Wang was that it was just a fake cheat, but Xiaoyu seemed to have really practiced some doorways.

The west wall of the Hou Mansion was collapsed by Xiaoyu swinging his sword in three days, and I don't know how much it cost to repair the wall.

At this time, a lame old man came to the courtyard, glanced at Xiaoyu very kindly, and then bowed to Jiang Wang and said, "Son, someone is visiting outside the house." ”

Jiang Wang was very surprised.

If it was still just those matchmakers who came to the door, the old housekeeper would not have come to report, but there was no one who came to visit the Hou Mansion in the past two years.

......

Outside the gate of the Hou Mansion, there stood an old man wearing a gray cloth robe, holding a whisk in his hand, and looking like a fairy wind and bones.

Jiang Wang was very surprised when he saw the comer, "Tao Tianshi? ”

Celestial Master is an honorific title, and it is said that such people know how to draw talismans to exorcise demons.

Although Jiang Wang has never seen it with his own eyes, Tao Tianshi has a very good reputation in Huncheng, and all kinds of deeds are very expressive, which does not seem to be fake.

But he was always skeptical.

Tao Tianshi gently shook the dust, revealing an unfathomable smile, "Little friend, is it a fortune teller?" ”

Jiang Wang was silent.

It's like Lao Xu Tou pestering him to introduce his daughter-in-law all day long.

Ever since he sneaked out of the door and got acquainted with this Tao Tianshi, the first thing he said every time he met was to tell him his fortune.

And today I actually came directly to the door, but it was the first time.

Tao Tianshi said to himself: "Little friend, you have a big bad omen." ”

Jiang Wang: "......"

Tao Tianshi said very solemnly: "I met Xiaoyou for the first time half a year ago, and I saw that Xiaoyou had a trace of fierceness, but Xiaoyou didn't want me to crack, after a long time, I had a premonition that Xiaoyou's fierce spirit must have reached its peak, so I had to visit, this time Xiaoyou don't want to refuse me again." ”

Seeing that Jiang Wang still didn't speak, Tao Tianshi took a step forward, took a deep breath, and said again: "If Xiaoyou has any doubts, I can help Xiaoyou crack the evil omen first, and then charge after the matter is completed." ”

Jiang Wang frowned slightly and said, "What is the solution?" ”

Tao Tianshi said with a smile: "The ferocious aura on Xiaoyou's body is more special, and he may not have noticed the abnormality in the past, but in the past two days, the ferocious aura has condensed to the peak, and Xiaoyou will slowly notice that something is wrong, and at that time, it will not only ruin the wealth, but also hurt his life." ”

The so-called speaker has no intention, but the listener has intention.

Jiang Wang remembered the matter of the monster.

His expression didn't just change a little.

Tao Tianshi smiled slightly and said, "The method of cracking is actually very simple, the first thing Xiaoyou has to do is to marry a daughter-in-law." ”

Jiang Wang: "......"

Tao Tianshi was a little uncomfortable by Jiang Wang's eyes, coughed lightly, and said: "I haven't received any money from a lady, I deliberately used this method to say matchmaking, this is indeed a way to crack it, and it is to marry a girl born when Yang Nian Yang ”

Jiang Wang still stared at Tao Tianshi with suspicion, "Do you think I believe it?" ”

Tao Tianshi shook his head and said: "The old man has acted frankly all his life, and there is no lie, little friend, you have to believe me." ”

Jiang Wang was silent for a moment, then gently raised his hand and waved, "Uncle Tong, send off!" ”

The old butler stepped out.

With a smile, he asked Tao Tianshi, who was still trying to persuade Jiang Wang, to leave.

Jiang Wang turned around and went home.

Xunyang Houfu is very large, but in addition to Jiang Wang, there is only one old housekeeper, a little maid, and the painter Zhao Yan.

In addition to the old housekeeper who lives in the front yard and the little fish who has to take care of Jiang Wang's daily life, Zhao Yan also has his own courtyard.

At this moment, Zhao Yan is painting in the courtyard.

Seeing Jiang Wang coming in from outside, he shook the brush with his mouth, and at that time, if he put down the pen like a god, the appearance of the entire Huncheng jumped on the paper and came to life.

"I think my painting skills have been sublimated again, and I have traveled to every corner of Huncheng in three years, striving for perfection in delineating every detail, and this is finally done, this is definitely a masterpiece that can be remembered for centuries!"

Jiang Wang pondered Tao Tianshi's words, and said casually: "Can you sell three taels of silver?" ”

Zhao Yan suddenly blushed and his neck was thick, "Vulgar!" It's vulgar! ”

Jiang Wang continued: "No matter how good the painting is, if you can't sell it for a price, you still have to starve to death, if I hadn't been kind enough to take you in, I'm afraid that the grass on the grave would be a few feet high." ”

Zhao Yan was angry, but he had no way to refute it.

He was indeed dying of hunger back then, otherwise he would not have been able to sell paintings on the streets.

He didn't know whether he was lucky or unlucky when he met Jiang Wang.

I still remember that his face was full of decadence, but no one cared about such a good painting, and suddenly an extremely good-looking young man appeared and asked him to help him paint a picture.

His mood is quite bad, deliberately painting people ugly.

I didn't expect to be praised.

He thought the man was sick.

It turned out that Jiang Wang was indeed sick, and Zhao Yan felt that he was also sick.

actually exchanged his lifelong talent for food.

To put it nicely, he is the royal painter of the dignified little marquis of Xunyang Houfu, and in the final analysis, he is not just a domestic servant.

Jiang Wang didn't notice what was happening just now, but suddenly asked curiously, "Is Tao Tianshi's reputation real?" ”

Zhao Yan didn't look at Jiang Wang, but still replied: "It won't last long to have a vain name, but Tao Tianshi's reputation has also been resounding in Huncheng for more than 20 years. ”

"Five years ago, I also witnessed Tao Tianshi's ability, when the town guard who was about to die of illness, searched for a famous doctor to no avail, but was rescued by Tao Tianshi's random talisman, and now the town guard is also alive."

Jiang Wang was thoughtful.

Regardless of whether what Tao Tianshi said was true or not.

And whether it has something to do with the power that he suddenly has.

He didn't have a few years to live, so why should he care?

If you can control that power, or even embark on the path of cultivation, and your life span can be extended, it is not a bad thing.

Jiang Wang's emotions recovered with some emotion.

Suddenly, I heard a tremor somewhere in Huncheng.

Followed by several figures, skimming over Qixia Street.

It is rare to see monks in Huncheng.

If it appears, there must be a reason.

Jiang Wang left directly, called Xiao Yu, who was still practicing sword swinging, and left the Hou Mansion.

In the adjacent broken alley, there stood three people with completely different temperaments.

They all carried a sword behind them, wearing white robes, green robes, and purple robes, and they were all about the age of not being confused.

"There are indeed inexplicable remnants of qi in this place, but it's really hard to see anything."

The green-robed monk probed his surroundings and frowned.

The white-robed monk sighed and said, "We have never seen the immortal traces, we can only infer according to the records, but it is undeniable that the immortal's death must be in this Qixia Street. ”

The purple-robed monk suddenly asked, "What kind of picture is the immortal coming to the world, is the immortal coming directly, or is it born from the mother's womb?" ”

The white-robed and blue-robed monks glanced at each other and shook their heads in unison, "We don't know either. ”

Although there are many records about the immortals, they are basically not very detailed.

Don't say that they are ordinary people or ordinary martial artists, in fact, even these monks only know that there is an immortal in the god capital.

But no one knew what that immortal looked like or how he came to be.

Or, the immortal in the divine capital does not exist at all.
