Chapter 18 The underworld is empty, and the demons are in the world
"Senior brother, senior brother, what's wrong with you, wake up quickly......"
As Chen Wenqing fell, Li Youcai panicked, supported Chen Wenqing with one hand, and said to everyone: "Everyone think of a way to save Senior Brother Chen." ”
"Little Taoist, the wound is black and faintly black gas is coming out, it seems that he has been poisoned by this rat demon. To untie the bell, you have to tie the bell, and you have to ask this rat demon about this. ”
Wang Xian Ling walked up to the rat demon and said, "Pure Yang Xiaodao Elder has been injured by your demon poison, quickly take out the antidote, or you can drop it lightly, otherwise you will not escape death!" ”
"This poison is a talent brought by the rat clan, and it is not acquired by cultivation, and there is no way to save the old decay."
"What?! Bastard demon, dare to hurt my senior brother, what's the use of me leaving you! When Li Youcai heard this, he took the steel knife from Wang Xianling's hand and was about to slash at the rat demon.
"Die!" Li Youcai shouted.
At this moment, a weak voice came from the ruined temple, "Stop! Don't kill my grandfather......"
As soon as the words fell, a rat demon dressed as a child, equivalent to the appearance of a human being six or seven years old, was holding an official seal in his hand, and suddenly appeared in front of everyone out of thin air.
"Please let go of my grandfather, this is the official seal you are looking for, and I will give it back to you."
At this time, the rat demon saw the appearance of the child, and immediately became excited. "Little Ash, didn't I let you escape? Why are you still here, and you still run in the net? ”
"Grandpa, Little Gray doesn't want you to die, Little Gray wants to be with Grandpa." After speaking, the child squatted down and touched the tight rope on the rat demon's body, and tears the size of beans fell down.
"Alas...... Little gray gray, you ......" The rat demon let out a long sigh, a sad look on his withered face, and tears flashed faintly in his eyes.
Wang Xianling looked at the weeping little gray ash, and saw that there was no demonic energy on his body, but there was a faint flow of spiritual light, as if he had thought of something.
"I ask you, little mouse, how did you avoid our detection. We've searched the ruined temple several times, but we haven't found any trace of you. ”
"Don't say it, little gray gray, human beings are insidious and cunning, and they are extremely greedy...... Ahem, cough, cough ......" The rat demon let out a violent cough, and as the cough spilled blood stains from the corners of its mouth, the blood stains were gray-black.
"Rat demon, it looks like your time is running out, if you want your grandson to be safe and sound, then it's best not to play any more tricks. Answer me honestly, otherwise both of you and your grandchildren will die! Wang Xian Ling frowned and held the official seal in his hand, with the blessing of luck in the land of one county, the two rat demons trembled under the suppression of the official authority.
"Alas...... Little Gray is a treasure hunting spirit rat with a talent for concealment and can ignore ordinary enchantment formations. Although you will break the temple like an iron bucket, you will not be able to stop the little gray ash. Pity my grandson Xiao Ash, it's so stupid! The rat demon was already desperate at this time, and his eyes were full of pity when he looked at the little gray gray.
"I'll give you one last chance to cure the rat poison of the Pure Yang Dao Master. Otherwise, you two rats steal the official seal and forcibly seize the luck of Chen County, no matter which one it is, it is a capital crime! ”
When the rat demon heard this, he seemed to see a glimmer of hope in it, struggled to get up and knelt on his knees, and said, "If the old man has a way to cure this little Taoist, can you open up to my grandson Xiao Gray Net." After all, stealing the official seal and forcibly seizing luck are all done by the old man, and he has nothing to do with Xiao Gray Ash. Moreover, the little gray ash has not been killed so far, and the Wang Guan's family has been lightly punished. ”
"Good! This county promises you that as long as you can cure the Pure Yang Trail, your grandson will be able to fall lightly. However, as for how to deal with it, we will wait for the Pure Yang Trail Master to wake up. ”
When the rat demon heard this, he was overjoyed and said: "Old decay, thank you for the forgiveness of the official family." With a solemn expression, he said to Little Ash: "Child, come here, grandpa will tell you what to do." ”
The rat demon gently taught the little gray face. After a while, the little gray gray came to Chen Wenqing's side and squatted down, looking at the little Taoist priest in front of him who was in a coma, his face showed a painful expression, and said in a low voice.
"Grandpa said, you will be my master in the future, and I want the little gray ash to follow you and listen to you obediently. Little Gray doesn't understand, but Little Gray believes in Grandpa."
At this time, Xiao Gray suddenly grabbed Chen Wenqing's wrist and bit it down......
A blue halo emerged from Chen Wenqing's bitten wrist, and a blue rune suddenly appeared. The runes were ancient and mysterious, emitting a blue glimmer that illuminated Chen Wenqing's pale face.
"What are you doing?" Li Youcai was angry from his heart, and was about to step forward to theorize, but he saw Chen Wenqing's wound flowing with black blood and black gas, which gradually healed.
Seeing this, a smile appeared on the rat demon's withered face, and he breathed a sigh of relief, "This is the spirit beast contract. Now the little gray gray has become the spirit beast of Chen Xiaodaochang, which is equivalent to having recognized the small path chief as the master, and the little gray gray will accompany the small path for a lifetime. ”
"In this way, the little gray ash is guaranteed, so I am also relieved."
When Wang Xianling heard this, he said: "How can this be reasonable, and you still dare to calculate us and wait until now." Could it be that the sword in our hand is not sharp enough? ”
"The official family is angry. Little Gray Ash is one of the spirit rats of my rat clan, not only can help the host to hunt for treasures, ignore the enchantment formation as if it were nothing, but also hide in hiding, ordinary heavenly eyes can't find it, this is the spiritual pet that many cultivators dream of. ”
"In the final analysis, Chen Xiaodao's morale is lucky." The rat demon talked about Little Gray at this time, and he didn't know how proud he was.
"Humph! Don't brag about yourself there, and wait until the senior brother wakes up. Li Youcai obviously didn't believe the words of the rat demon, and still said angrily.
Wang Xianling nodded and said, "Since this is the case, then return to the county office first, and wait for the little Taoist to wake up." ”
The officials escorted two rat demons, one large and one small, and everyone lined up with torches to return to Liuchen County, and when they were halfway there, Chen Wenqing had already woken up.
At this time, it was late at night, and everyone had already come to the yamen.
Wang Xian Ling stopped in front of the yamen and said to Chen Wenqing and Li Youcai: "The two Taoist leaders are troublesome to bring the two demons and come in with me. The rest of the people stood still, and if they heard any sound, they were not allowed to move rashly, and they were not allowed to come in. ”
"Yes, the little ones take orders."
Wang Xianling nodded, took Chen Wenqing, Li Youcai and the two demons, and walked towards the "City God's Office" on the right. At this time, the originally locked Chenghuang Ya suddenly opened the gate, and a cold yin wind blew out from the Chenghuang Ya, blowing the body and mind of the officials.
As soon as everyone stepped into the Chenghuang Ya, the gate of the Chenghuang Ya slowly closed by itself, but the Chenghuang Ya also lit up with a turquoise light at this time, illuminating the Chenghuang Ya.
At this time, I saw a middle-aged man sitting in front of the main hall in front of him, with leopard eyes and lion nose, long beard, wearing a square crown and a long robe, looking at everyone. On both sides of the middle-aged man's lower hand, there is a bull-headed Yin Yin God, and on the right side is a horse-faced Yin God.
At the foot of the main hall, there are also two rows of errand soldiers standing on the left and right, holding swords, guns, swords, halberds, and braving the cold air up and down. It's just that the officer's body is illusory and has no substance, and it looks like a yin soldier.
"Wang County Order, can the official seal be found?" The middle-aged man in front of the main hall spoke.
"Well, it's found. These two demons are the culprits of stealing the official seal this time, and they have now been arrested. How to judge, please ask Qin Chenghuang to have an idea. ”
However, in the process of searching for the official seal this time, the two masters of Zixiaguan made great efforts. And this Chen Xiaodao Elder defeated the rat demon by himself. It's just that there were some accidents later. ”
"Oh? What accident? ”
Wang Xianling said: "Chen Xiaodao was unfortunately poisoned by rats. However, when he was in danger, the mouse demon saved Chen Xiaodao. Now he has also passed the secret method to recognize Chen Xiaodao as the master. This matter involves the symbiosis of people in my yang world and demons and evils, and I am afraid that how to judge the case will have to be considered again. ”
Hearing this, Qin Chenghuang walked down from Zhengda, came to Chen Wenqing's side, looked at the rune on his arm, frowned, and said, "Well, it was originally a capital offense to steal the official seal. However, I saw that the rune on Chen Daochang's arm was not an ordinary rune, but a sacrificial seal. The "Seal of Sacrifice" has already connected the life span and luck of the two, but it is tricky. ”
"What Qin Chenghuang said is. The mouse demon is surrounded by aura, and it should have never been evil, so it is better to deal with it leniently. As for the rat demon, he didn't have a few days to live, so he just had to act according to the law. ”
"Well, that's good."
Chen Wenqing has not made a sound since he came to the "City God's Office", and when he saw that the matter had been done, he was suspicious in his heart, and he couldn't help but speak.
"Poor Dao Zixia Guan Chen Chunyang, there is something unclear below, I hope to ask Lord Chenghuang to solve his doubts."
Qin Chenghuang glanced at Chen Wenqing, felt the Dao Gate mana from Chen Wenqing's body, and nodded. said: "Zixia Guan is a decent Taoist sect, and he also has a lot of dealings with my Yin Division. If you have any questions, you might as well say them clearly. ”
When Chen Wenqing heard this, he said: "Poor Dao heard that the city god is the yin god, and it is under the jurisdiction of the prefecture. But now, Poor Dao has seen so many Yin gods and Yin soldiers in the world. Yin and Yang were originally separated, but now they are mixed with Yin and Yang, and if it continues like this, it may cause trouble! ”
"I didn't expect Xiaodao to be so knowledgeable at such a young age. Thinking about all living beings now, I am afraid that they have become accustomed to the symbiosis of people, ghosts, demons and demons. I have been a city god for 800 years, but no one has heard of this matter for a long time. ”
Qin Chenghuang sighed deeply, and then said: "A thousand years ago, yin and yang were separated. The human world and the underworld are indeed separated, separated by the Ghost Gate Pass, Nai He Bridge, Sansheng Stone, Lechuan River, ......"
"But, I don't know why."
"The Ghost Gate has collapsed!"
"Why did the bridge fall!"
"The Lethe River has dried up!"
"There are no boundaries between the human world and the underworld. Since that time, demons have been in turmoil, ghosts and monsters have been rampant, and the five turbidity and evil world have been thousands of years! ”
Hearing this, Chen Wenqing clenched his fists tightly and said.
"The underworld is empty, and the demons are in the world!"
