Chapter 50
Zhou Zheng was leisurely strolling down the street when he saw an eleven or twelve-year-old brother running straight to him.
"The little one is Zhenjun."
Seeing the little guy saluting in style, Zhou Zheng smiled and asked him, "Little brother, do you know me?" ”
"My family lives not far from the government, and I have met Zhenjun a few times."
"You're here for me?"
"Yes. Cheng Yuanjun asked me to tell you that he found an accomplice of the cockroach monster, and he went to arrest someone. After Zhenjun went back, he rested first, and he would return to the government in a while. ”
"Cockroach monsters? You mean Zhang Huai, right? ”
"Yes, yes, yes, it seems to be long-term bad."
Zhou Zheng was amused by this fairy tale. "Did Cheng Yuanjun say where he went to arrest people?"
He said. He said that if Zhenjun wanted to go and have a look, he would go to the haunted house. ”
"Haunted house?" Zhou Zheng was stunned for a while, how could there be a haunted house in this Jiaxiang City? This is the world of demon beasts, as long as you can incarnate into a human form, it is a cultivation of the heavenly level, how can you allow the existence of ghosts?
However, suddenly he remembered that Cheng E had told him as an interesting story that in the west of Jiaxiang City, there was a large courtyard that had been abandoned for more than 100 years, and there was a ghost living in it, and no one dared to live in that courtyard.
I heard that in order to appease the people, Lin Shi once sent the archmage Jiang Ning to the haunted house to catch ghosts. However, Jiang Ning came back in disgrace. He Lin Shi muttered for a long time, and in the end, no one mentioned this matter again.
There are rumors that there is a ghost king living there, and the cultivation is not bad with the demon king. The demon king couldn't afford to be provoked, so he took the initiative to choose not to invade each other and be safe.
Although the Department of Law and Punishment is not afraid of any ghost king, this ghost king has never harmed a person or thing outside the hospital, and those who were killed were all those who thought they were bold and broke into the deserted courtyard without permission. Therefore, with the mentality that more things are better than less things, Cheng E did not go to the trouble of the ghost king.
Why is it that this time, the arrested person will be in a haunted house?
Thinking that Cheng E and they might be in danger, Zhou Zheng hurriedly gave the little brother a few taels of silver to buy candy to eat. Then, run quickly to the west of the city.
Zhou Zheng had already memorized the map of Jiaxiang City, so it didn't take long to find the deserted courtyard.
The compound was so large that it took up almost an entire street. It is also because of the haunted house that this street is empty, but the two streets on the left and right, which are not far away, are full of people and lively.
Zhou Zheng walked to the main entrance alone, where the gate was empty, and the sound of fighting faintly came from inside.
Zhou Zhenglai didn't think much about it, and pushed the door in. In a trance, I saw several people in the inner courtyard wearing the uniforms of the legal and punishment department were fighting against the air in pinyin.
Zhou Zheng was afraid that they would suffer a loss, so he hurriedly turned the shadow wall and ran into the inner courtyard.
As soon as you enter the inner courtyard, how can there be a shadow of someone? I felt that the wind was blowing, and the light around me slowly dimmed, and a layer of mist slowly rose.
Zhou Zheng immediately understood that he had been deceived. And his location is in a haunted house, but it is in a formation in a haunted house.
At this time, Zhou Zheng didn't panic. He looked around and found that this formation was completely in line with the inner courtyard, with a courtyard gate, a fence, and a large room. The door of the big room was also hidden, and there was a lot of candlelight inside.
Zhou Zheng knew that if he wanted to leave this formation, he must not go to the gate of the courtyard, it must be the door of death. And the big house is by no means a good place, and the only way to live is somewhere between the courtyards.
Unfortunately, he doesn't know much about the formations. If Yun Ling is here, or Miaose is here, he will definitely be able to easily find out where the birth gate is.
As soon as he thought of Yun Ling and Miaose, he saw that the door of the house was wide open, and Yun Ling was preparing his favorite soup for him in the house, looking at him shyly and coquettishly. And Miaose lightly untied Luo Shang, sat on the edge of the bed with her breasts half-exposed and beckoned to him, "Zhou Lang, come in, why are you shy?" ”
Zhou Zheng was shocked.
It turns out that the formation can see through his thoughts and thoughts, and conjure up what he wants most according to his thoughts, thus bewitching his mind.
With this discovery, Zhou Zheng suddenly had a spoof attack.
I saw that Yun Ling's face slowly turned into a big fat pig's head, and he was squeezing his eyebrows there for a long time. And Miaose turned into a toad, sitting on the bed and scratching her head. How weird it was.
Before, Zhou Zheng thought it was funny, but after watching it for a while, he felt that his stomach was turning upside down, and he almost wanted to vomit.
The two people in the room noticed something different and couldn't help but look at each other. Seeing each other's strange shapes, I couldn't help but scream in shock.
I saw a thick fog rise and disperse, and two green-faced and fanged demons pounced on Zhou Zheng viciously.
"That's right! With your appearance like this, I don't have a psychological burden to kill! As he spoke, he picked up Fei Lian and fought with the two evil spirits.
Those two evil ghosts are also very smart, and after only one move, they knew that it was extremely difficult to take down Zhou Zheng, and when they saw that Zhou Zheng was merciless and killed step by step, they immediately turned into a slim and glamorous appearance.
Sure enough, Zhou Zheng stopped attacking, but looked at the two of them carefully.
The two ghosts looked at each other and smiled, thinking that all men in the world are womanizers, which is really true! After a while, Zhou Zheng will be fascinated by the beauty on the surface, and then clean him up!
However, what the two ghosts didn't expect was that Zhou Zheng pointed to the ghost on the left and called out her name.
"Zhao Cui'er? How did you end up here? I haven't seen you for a few years, and your cultivation has actually reached the level of a ghost master? How did you do that? ”
Zhao Cuier was completely stunned, "You know me?" You, how did you know me? Who are you? ”
Zhou Zheng almost pouted and revealed his identity.
This Zhao Cuier was suppressed by the guqin back then, but it was Zhou Zheng and Yun Ling who rescued her. It's just that later, Zhou Zheng and Yun Ling originally planned to send her to reincarnation, but they were suddenly chased and killed by Qingshi and them, and when they were in a panic, the jade bottle containing Zhao Cui'er's soul was pulled by Yun Ling in the inn. Since then, there has been no news between them.
"Me? You don't know me. However, my lady saved your life. In a temple, you are suppressed by a monster and are looking for someone who can play the flute. At that time, my lady saved you! ”
"Yunling Fairy? Is it your lady? This memory is unforgettable for Zhao Cuier, and for her life-saving benefactor, she will never forget.
"However, isn't Fairy Yunling and Zhou Zheng a Taoist couple?" Zhao Cuier looked Zhou Zheng up and down, the person in front of her was not at all different from Zhou Zhengchang who saved her back then.
"Yes. However, Zhou was the devil and was later killed. I also enlightened Yunling for many years, and she slowly regained her confidence in life. Yun Ling told me about you, she cared about you very much, and showed me your portrait. So, I have an impression of you. However, it seems that you are so much younger than in the portrait that I almost don't recognize you! ”
Zhou Zheng's nonsense did not blush at all. Anyway, true and false, coherent and coherent, Zhao Cuier completely believed it to be true.
"It turned out to be the husband of Eun Gong. I was wondering just now how it could become the appearance of Engong Yunling, it turns out that you and Yunling are really husband and wife. You shouldn't be here, let's go. This big array will be fully activated in half an hour, and it will be too late for you to leave! ”
At this time, Zhou Zheng was not in a hurry, he asked with concern, "You haven't told me why you are here?" Is someone detaining you? Yun Ling has always been worried about you, and often said that he shouldn't have left you at that time. She felt guilty. Today, I will see you again, and if you have any difficulties, you will tell me. I'll help you! It can also be regarded as asking me to do something for Yunling. ”
Zhou Zheng lifted Yun Ling out, and Zhao Cui'er, who was moved, almost burst into tears.
"Eun Gong is still thinking about me! I thank Engong, thank you Zhou Zhengxia, and thank you! I don't know what Lang Jun is called? ”
"Hehe, no, my name is Zhou Zheng. Now it's the Patrol Ruler of the Punishment Division! ”
"Zhou Zheng? You're the one who punishes you? Zhao Cuier's face changed greatly. She hesitated, and suddenly, she knelt down at the female ghost on her right.
"Sister, sister can't stand you! My father-in-law is as kind to me as a mountain, and I must repay this love! Today, I exchange my life for her husband's life! Please, sister, be gracious! ”
The woman lamented, "Do you know what the fate is?" You will be scattered and imprisoned in that infinite darkness for all eternity. ”
"Sister, even then, my sister is willing! Besides, if you don't meet your sister, you don't know how many years it will take for your sister to be imprisoned in the painting? Is it better to live than to die? Perhaps, this is my life! ”
"Zhao Cui'er, this, sister," Zhou Zheng could guess a rough idea, he stepped forward with a smile, "Perhaps, there is another way, we don't have to die or live so entangled." ”
The woman stared at Zhou Zheng, "What can you do?" ”
In a dark corner not far from the entrance of the haunted house, two people in black cloaks were tightly wrapped, staring at the door without blinking.
Although they have dealt with this haunted house more than once, they still can't help but feel their hearts beat faster every time they see this door. In the courtyard, they didn't dare to take half a step in! If you are forced to go in, you will finish the matter in the fastest time, and then the girl will run out.
"How long has that week been in?" A young voice asked another older one.
"It's almost a stick of incense."
"Isn't it almost?"
"Wait! He now has the strength of a demon king! ”
"That's right! Does your picture really work? ”
"That's not my picture, it was lent to that person by Jiang Ning four or five years ago. I heard that hundreds of thousands of remnant souls of the Immortal Demon War were sealed inside, and it was extremely fierce. This time, in order to deal with Zhou Zheng, the one offered to ask us to give her this picture, which shows that this picture is very powerful! ”
"Didn't she take your one hundred and eight Heavenly Fire Arrows and my seventy-two Thunder Beads? Those are all immortal weapons that can deal with the demon king! Why is it not as good as that painting? The young voice was surprised.
"She didn't even look at our two things, you say, which is more important in her mind? Why are you still in the mood to care about this? As long as we can deal with Zhou Zheng, as long as you and I have it, we will give her whatever she wants! ”
"Zhou Zheng? It would be a shame to die like this! ”
"I don't think Zhou Zheng will die so easily! Of course, it is good for us to die, and it is better for us not to die! ”
"Found a dead ghost?"
"I've been looking for it a long time ago! By the way, it can be regarded as helping the demon king solve a troublesome matter. ”
"What's the matter? How did I not know? ”
"You'll know about it slowly, don't rush now."
"Listen, what's the sound? That's, Lei Zhu? Also, the Arrow of Skyfire! There's a fight inside! We really don't have to help? ”
The elder sighed, "Being able to force that person to start using these magic weapons, it can be seen that Zhou Zheng's cultivation is a real demon king level." We can't get involved in that level of battle! ”
"Just waiting?"
"No, I think we'd better hide. Save being recognized by Zhou Zheng! ”
"Do you think that person can't subdue Zhou Zheng?"
"I think we have to be careful in everything we do! Come on! ”
While the two of them were talking, an old man in a gray cloth robe came to the gate of the courtyard without hurry, and stood there in deep thought.
The two men in black, who were tightly wrapped, were definitely not blind, but none of them saw the arrival of the old man. Or rather, the old man stood in front of them, but they saw nothing.
And the two men saw that the door opened without wind, and then it closed again. The two looked at each other, and hurried away from the street in fright, not daring to linger here for a moment.
That old man, if Zhou Zheng saw it, he would definitely recognize it, it was the senior master who claimed to be surnamed Mei on the top floor of the Drunken Sun Peak Library Pavilion.
The old man listened to the movement inside, and the corners of his mouth actually hung with laugh lines.
"I read that kid right! In just half a year, the strength has reached the cultivation of the ninth layer of the Immortal Rank! Not bad, that's good! What is he going to do? Fighting with immortals and demons? Although it is only a remnant soul, the strength is not something he can provoke! This kid, is he too bold? Hey? How could he really fight against these remnants? It was so unexpected! His body? Oh, I see, no wonder! It's a pity that there are too many remnants! He has no chance of winning! Hey, I'd better help him! ”
The old man pushed the door in, and closed and locked the courtyard door with his hand.
The old man walked unhurriedly, and as soon as he entered the front hall, a heavy fog suddenly hit. The old man waved his hand unhurriedly, and the thick fog immediately dissipated, revealing the original appearance of the courtyard again. However, if you look closely, it seems to be different.
The old man was smiling at the moment, "The girl is good, she has finally learned the essence of the formation of concealing the sky and crossing the sea." ”
I saw that the old man did not move forward, but turned sideways and walked towards a wall, and easily passed through the wall. Then, go forward again, and then turn back again. By the time he returned to the front yard, he was already standing in the middle of the yard.
The old man was not breaking the formation, but crossing through the gap in the formation, and when he saw a small hole in the formation, he would find a way to make up for it.
And just like that, zigzag and twisted, he finally stepped into the backyard.
"There are even seven-step killing arrays and immortal extermination arrays hidden in this. Could it be that this girl is guarding against which immortal? However, immortals cannot interfere in human affairs! Who has the courage to target an immortal-level person as an immortal? ”
The original joy was replaced by a thick anger. The old man hadn't touched his liver fire for hundreds of years, but this time, he was really angry!
