"I really don't dare to be an old gentleman's gift, we are also people who borrow the night to travel, not the villagers of this Liujiazhuang." The gray-robed middle-aged man hurriedly got up and returned the salute.

"Oh? Aren't you from Honjo either? Di Renjie asked in surprise.

"We are from Nanyang County, Jingzhou, and we are indeed not locals" The green-robed man next to the gray-robed middle-aged man suddenly interjected, his eyes flashed, and he glanced at Li Yuanfang and the others opposite, and said meaningfully:

"I see that my husband talks elegantly, and there are so many guards with him, he must not be an ordinary You Fang Langzhong."

When Di Renjie heard this, he carefully looked at the man in the green robe, with pale and slightly vicissitudes of cheeks, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a slender figure, wearing a narrow-sleeved cyan disc collar dress, Di Renjie put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "Oh, how can you see it?" Would you like to ask this strong man? ”

The people in Tsing Yi looked Di Renjie up and down, and said in an affirmative tone: "Judging from the temperament and conversation, if I expected it to be good, the old man is also a great Confucian celebrity at the very least." ”

On the other side, Li Yuanfang, Ruyan and others glanced at each other when they heard the conversation between the two, and couldn't help but smile.

Di Renjie said with a smile: "The strong man has won the award, how dare the mountain and wild horseman be the word 'celebrity', I don't think the strong man is an ordinary person, right?" ”

The man in Tsing Yi suddenly laughed, and immediately said, "Oh? Then ask the old man to guess, it should be fun. ”

Di Renjie smiled and looked at the man in the green robe and said: "The old man sees that the strong man has sword energy in his eyes, and his appearance is good, if the guess is good, the strong man must be a disciple of the great sect." ”

The man in Tsing Yi was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but reply in surprise: "Oh? The children of the great sect? ”

Di Renjie nodded and said, "Exactly, the strong man is a master in the Qingzhou Taiyue Sect!" ”

The man in Tsing Yi suddenly widened his eyes, he couldn't believe his ears, and he couldn't speak for a while.

Di Renjie smiled: "What's the matter, the old man guessed wrong?" ”

The man in Tsing Yi took a deep breath: "No, no, that's right, I'm really a person from the Taiyue Sect, old man, you...... How do you know? ”

Di Renjie said to the people in Tsing Yi: "Judging from what you are wearing, in my Great Zhou, only the people of the Taiyue Sect of Qingzhou embroidered the three mountain marks on the cuffs of the robes and robes they were wearing. As he spoke, he smiled and pointed to the three mountain marks on the cuffs of the man in Tsing Yi.

The man in Tsing Yi was taken aback, and hurriedly looked at the mark on the cuff and said hesitantly:

"My husband is also a cultivator? It's just that you ......" He really couldn't imagine that this fat old man was also a cultivator, after all, ordinary people would not know the division of cultivators at all. Could it be that this old man pretended to be a pig and ate a tiger, but he was a master of cultivation? But in the cultivation world, I haven't heard of such a master as an old man? Could it be that he is really a hermit master?

Di Renjie looked at the man in Tsing Yi who was thinking hard, stroked his beard and said with a smile:

"Strong men don't have to think about it, I'm not a cultivator. It was only after reading a few more books in my spare time that I learned about such secrets. ”

The people in Tsing Yi didn't dare to be careless, if the old man in front of him was not a cultivator, but he actually knew the things in the cultivation world, his identity must be extraordinary, either a member of a big family or a .......

"Below, Li Qingfeng of Jingzhou Taiyue Sect, this is the contemptible senior brother Zhang Xuanqing" The man in Tsing Yi arched his hand and said his name, and then raised his hand to point to the middle-aged man who came here with Di Renjie and others.

"In Xia Huaiying, these are all old sons and nephews," Di Renjie also bowed his hand and pointed to Li Yuanfang and the others opposite.

"I don't know why you stay here overnight, Li Zhuangshi?" Di Renjie asked

Li Qingfeng smiled and said: "My husband doesn't know, this Liujia Village is the place where the Jingzhou Daoji Division assigned to me to protect the Taiyue Sect, just because there was a big flood in Jingzhou a month ago, a fish demon suddenly appeared in the nearby Yanting Lake, and it devoured countless people of my Great Zhou, and it has plagued many surrounding villages. ”

"Oh? Fish demon? Di Renjie heard that there was a fish demon making trouble, although he already knew that this was an extraordinary world, but his heart was still a little shaken. Li Yuanfang and the others were also in an uproar when they heard that there was a fish demon, after all, they only heard about the monster, but they didn't expect to really encounter it today.

For a while, the hearts of Li Yuanfang and the others beat drums, and they had an unknown feeling of fear and expectation, after all, this is the legendary fish demon.

Di Renjie stabilized his mind, frowned and muttered, "Now these monsters dare to kill my people in the name of Da Zhou?" What does the government here do to eat? Although Di Renjie knew that the local area of Dazhou was already terminally ill, his control over the local area had declined somewhat. But I didn't expect it to drop so badly, and there were monsters who dared to blatantly eat and harm people.

Li Qingfeng is a cultivator, Di Renjie's muttering made him hear it clearly, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly at Di Renjie:

"My husband doesn't know, the fish demon is naturally nothing, hey! Just ......"

"Something so big, didn't the state send someone to investigate?" Di Renjie couldn't help asking

Zhang Xuanqing next to him suddenly said angrily:

"What can't be said by junior brother, it's not that those officials and masters don't treat people like us as people, so naturally they won't care about our life or death!"

"Senior brother... Don't talk nonsense..."Li Qingfeng glanced at Di Renjie nervously and scolded Zhang Xuanqing.

Di Renjie frowned, and anger rose in his heart. These local officials are so bold that they have no regard for the lives of the people.

"Isn't there anyone in the state capital?" Di Renjie asked again.

"Hey! It's not that the state doesn't care, but in recent years, there have been many incidents of demons hurting and eating people, and the state government can't control it at all. Therefore, the current governor of Jingzhou, Lord Zhu, ordered that the entire Jingzhou be divided into several regions, which were guarded by the cultivation sects in various places, and the state government gave money and grain subsidies. ”

"What about the garrison in Jingzhou? Can't they deal with youkai too? I don't know when Li Yuanfang, Ruyan and others also came up, and it was Ruyan who asked out loud just now under her curiosity.

Li Qingfeng glanced at Ruyan and said slowly:

"The defenders of these places are no better than the Divine Capital Forbidden Army, who have experienced a hundred battles and have evil qi to protect their bodies. They are all rabble who have not been on the battlefield and are negligent in training, so that they can take care of their homes and hospitals, and they will face demons...... Hehe....... ”

"That is, the standard battalion of the governor stationed in Xiangyang Mansion can be used, but unfortunately there are too few people, so they can only guard a corner of Xiangyang."

"It seems that the governor of Jingzhou is not an incompetent person, and he knows how to judge the situation and make good use of people." Li Yuanfang suddenly said loudly.

"Lord Zhu is naturally a good official, but the local powerful clans are bigger, and some of them can't show their hands. Otherwise, Jingzhou would not be like this. Listening to Li Yuanfang's words, Li Qingfeng couldn't help but sigh.

"Oh? It seems that Li Zhuangshi admires this Governor Zhu very much? Di Renjie stroked his beard and smiled.

"Master Zhu has been coming to Jingzhou for many years, and he has done a lot of practical things, which naturally makes me admire! It's a pity that Master Zhu has been in business for so many years, and Jingzhou finally got some improvement, and it was ruined by this flood again. Li Qingfeng shook his head and sighed.
