817 - Loyal dogs sacrifice their lives to protect their benefactors
"But even so, you can't just slander people, right?"
I shouted excitedly again: "It's been more than 20 years, because my mother has been burdened with a stigma, what life has Xiuxiu lived since she was a child? How much scolding did you get from others? How much gossip has I been subjected to? Now you're telling me that it's all because of my grandfather......"
"Little Liuzi, calm down!"
Li Zhanping frowned, and said: "You are also an exorcist yourself now, you should understand that since you have chosen this profession, you will suffer more pressure and pain than ordinary people!" If it weren't for your grandfather who came up with a remedy in time to cover up the Li family's tragedy, the villagers would inevitably cause even greater panic after digging deeper! What's more, if the truth is revealed, the Inhuman Sect will come to search for the whereabouts of the sacrificial vessel without any scruples, and the local people will not have a good life at that time......"
"What about Xiuxiu's father?"
I glared and asked: "Crazy Li was originally just an honest person, but because of this man-made lie, he went crazy with grief and anger, and lived alone in a broken brick kiln for more than 20 years, what kind of life did his wife live apart?" ”
"My brother is crazy not because of grief and anger, but because your grandfather wants to protect him......"
"What, what do you mean?" I asked.
Li Zhanping said: "My brother was indeed grief-stricken by the rumors of his wife's elopement, but your grandfather and I both thought that if my missing sister-in-law Luo Qiuping hadn't gotten rid of all those head-lowering masters, then the news that Huangjiagouzi was hiding a stammering immortal sacrificial vessel would definitely spread, and the Inhuman Sect would make a comeback again." At that time, Xiuxiu was too young to remember, I hid again, and my brother became the only clue to find the sacrificial weapon, how could the Inhuman Sect easily let him go? So your grandfather had to use a magic weapon to tamper with my brother's memory a little, so that my brother has since become a crazy and nonsense madman, so that even if the Inhuman Sect finds him, he will not be too embarrassed by him, and for himself, it can also alleviate the pain of being abandoned by his wife in his heart. For the sake of his safety, we never told him the truth back then, but we didn't expect that my brother missed his sister-in-law and became ill, and after going crazy, he went to settle down in the brick cave where my sister-in-law and I first met, and never left. At that time, your grandfather also felt ashamed, so from time to time he would carry wine and meat to the brick kiln to visit my brother, and preach to him carefully, enlightening my brother, and because I had climbed to the position of this 'yang cha handle' at that time, so I later saw that my brother had been cultivated to enlightenment, so I used my relationship to dredge up the yin, so that my brother also became a yang cha, let go of the pain and shuttle yin and yang to become a carefree person, so as not to become a truly hopeless waste......
Speaking of this, Li Zhanping looked at Xiuxiu meaningfully and said softly: "As for you, you are the person I owe the most in my life. Back then, in order to complete my sister-in-law's entrustment, protect this sacrificial vessel, I had to escape from the mountains and forests, and I couldn't take care of you at all, and then I saw that you and your father were wronged in the brick kiln, I couldn't bear it, so I went to ask relatives to take you out of your father's hands and send you to Nanzhaozhuang to foster care, and the person who separated your father and daughter was my own uncle......
With a choked voice, Li Zhanping finally lost control of his emotions and hid his face and cried bitterly, and Xiuxiu had already cried with a flowery face, wiped her tears and asked: "Uncle, you did this for my own good, I don't blame you, but why haven't you come to see me once in more than 20 years?" I used to hate my dad for abandoning me, and you can be said to be my only relative in this world! ”
"Xiuxiu, it's not that your uncle doesn't go to see you, it's that he can't."
Li Zhanping sighed and said: "After the tragedy of the year, the Inhuman Sect really sent people to track down the whereabouts of the sacrificial vessel, so I didn't dare to approach you at all, for fear that attracting the attention of the Inhuman Sect would harm you!" ”
"Then, then why did you ask Xiuxin to take care of me again this time?" Xiuxiu asked again.
Li Zhanping raised his hand and stroked the whip in the box, and replied: "Because the opportunity has come, the Three Realms can finally see the light of day again......
I asked, "What do you mean by that?" ”
Li Zhanping wiped away his tears, his voice returned to calm, and said, "Little Liuzi, this is about a year ago......
Li Zhanping said——
About a year and a half ago, the Inhuman Sect attacked again, searching for the whereabouts of the missing sacrificial vessels everywhere in the surrounding area, and started the idea of Li Luozi and Xiuxiu, trying to force clues about the sacrificial vessels from the mouths of these two father and daughter.
Fortunately, at that time, Li Zhanping had already become the local yang cha master, in addition to governing the yang cha within a radius of hundreds of miles, even the ghosts in the mountains succumbed to it, and became Li Zhanping's eyes and ears to inquire about the news, so without waiting for those Inhuman disciples to do it, Li Zhanping had already taken the first step to find out the situation, and found that the leader of the sacrificial vessel search team sent by the Inhuman Sect this time was the big descending master who caused the destruction of the Li family-Moniwang, and even the little apprentice Nehru he brought with him back then.
New hatred and old hatred, and in order to ensure the safety of Li Madman's father and daughter, Li Zhanping, who has been hiding in the mountains, made a decision to deliberately leak the news that the sacrificial vessel was hidden in his hands, causing Moniwang to go into the mountains and forests to try his best to rob openly and secretly, but every time he was repelled by Li Zhanping and could not succeed.
And Li Zhanping's ability to block Moniwang for a year, relying on three things, the first is the stammering immortal sacrificial vessel in his hand - 'Deterrence of the Three Realms', in more than 20 years, Li Zhanping has already figured out the power and use of this sacrificial vessel, so it is easy to use; the second is his own identity as a 'yang cha handle', the head descending master is good at raising little ghosts, and attacking with ghosts, Li Zhanping relies on the power of yang cha to attract ghosts in the mountains to resist, and repeatedly defeats the ghost soldiers and ghost generals sent by the head lowering divisions; and the third is the dog named 'gentian' that he raised.
When it came to gentian, Li Zhanping's face was full of pride and said with a smile: "Back then, I took the young Xiuxin to the market to sell mountain goods, and by chance I saved a litter of puppies, and in the end, only one gentian survived. I saw that it was blessed with great fortune, so I have been taking it with me for strict training, and on the surface I trained it to be a hunting dog that is good at catching prey in the mountains and forests, but in fact, it has a more powerful place, that is, exorcism and evil fighting. In the past ten years, Gentian has traveled with me to every corner of the mountains and forests, killing countless evil ghosts and mountain spirits who intend to harm people, and has already become a mountain patrol dog to protect the safety of the party, and then the Inhuman Cult made a comeback, and it was Gentian who fought side by side with me, repeatedly repelling the attacks of the head descending division, but ...... However, due to the accumulation of years of fighting against evil spirits, Gentian's body was gradually eroded by Yin Qi, and now his injuries are difficult to heal, and he himself has gradually fallen into demons, showing signs of demons. At that time, I could have saved it, but I didn't know that when Moniwang led the head descender to kill me, and while I was not prepared to restrain me, the gentian savior broke into the house and bit a head descender to death. Human blood into the belly, the evil nature of the gentian is even stronger, and finally lost the mind can no longer be eradicated, even if I spent a year trying to save it, but there is nothing I can do, I can only watch the gentian gradually be eroded into a demon fairy catastrophe, but fortunately, gentian himself still has a trace of sanity and knows how to restrain it, and the heart of the protector of the Lord for more than ten years has not diminished at all, during this time every day forcibly suppressed the evil nature to escort Xiuxin in and out of the mountains and forests, until the night before Xiuxin did not return, Gentian was worried about Xiuxin's safety, and for a while the evil blindfolded the heart and escaped, I wanted to retrieve it, but on the way, I was attacked by the head descender, but fortunately, Meng Xinxue arrived in time to help me save the day, and after that, I met you......"
After listening to Li Zhanping's words, my anger and hatred for the mad dog disappeared in an instant, it turned out that this was not an ordinary mad dog, but a loyal dog who loyally protected the Lord regardless of life and death!
Then I looked at Meng Xinxue, who had been sitting on the side and listening, and asked, "Xiaoxue, but what's the matter with you?" Why did you come here all of a sudden? ”
"Entrusted by men." Meng Xinxue replied in a deep voice.
"By whom?" I asked again.
Meng Xinxue replied: "A master who escaped from the world in the paper shop in Dongtuo Town, named Mu Jiangui......"
