Chapter Seventy-One: The Passenger Boat Asks for His Life in the Middle of the Night

On the Guxi River, a boat goes downstream. On it, the Ni looked around blankly, and was leisurely.

Xue Zhenjun only made a small perimeter, and then restored the worn True Qi. When he opened his eyes, he smiled secretly at the anxious appearance of Miaozhen, and immediately sacrificed the trick and moved the boat with a small handling technique. The boat drifted away from the middle of the river and swung towards the reeds.

When the ship docked on the side, the worried Miaozhen finally breathed a sigh of relief and recited the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, Buddha bless!" The two of us finally ended up with a shipwreck, and people died. ”

Xue Zhenjun refuted with a smile: "Nonsense, if it weren't for Xiaodao reciting the True Martial Arts Sutra, how could you and I be safe?" This must be blessed by Emperor Zhenwu. ”

Miao Zhen couldn't cry or laugh: "In such a situation, how can you, a Taoist priest, still insist on this?" I look at the mud all around, but it's hard to get out. ”

Xue Zhenjun got up and hooked his finger at Miaozhen: "What's so difficult about this, the magic method of freedom is poor." If you don't believe in the teacher, take a step forward. ”

Hearing this, Na Miaozhen was skeptical, and finally took a step forward and said, "What do you ...... Eh! ”

In the exclamation, Xue Zhenjun grabbed Miaozhen's waist, stepped on the bow of the boat, and carried light body kung fu, which was more than ten zhang. After landing on the ground, Na Miao was really shocked, Xue Zhenjun took his right hand and bowed: "Hurry up and obey the power, don't blame the teacher." ”

Miao Zhen's face turned red with shame, her lips opened for a long time, but she couldn't spit out half a word, she just stomped her feet and let out her anger.

Xue Zhenjun looked around, pointed to the distance and said: "That house is lined up one after another, I think it is a prosperous village and town, why don't you and I find a ready-to-wear shop here, change our appearance and then hurry." ”

Miao Zhen didn't say anything, only nodded in a muffled voice.

Xue Zhenjun's gaze fell on his neck, but he saw a wisp of black qi entangled, and when he touched his neck, he was immediately turned into green smoke by the golden light.

Ancient battlefields have always been a breeding ground for evil. This kind of ferocity is the convergence of yin and evil, and if there is no intelligence, ordinary people and so on will be contaminated, and they will probably get sick. But if Miao Zhen opened the acupoints around his body, it would be a disaster.

Xue Zhenjun had just cast a golden light spell on the boat, and under the protection of this spell, there was no need to worry for a while.

He led the way as usual, but in his heart he thought about what happened to the tea shop. Where did the iron-faced judge get the false news so that he came to intercept and kill himself?

It had only been about ten hours since last night, and if this news hadn't been spread everywhere, it wouldn't have happened to run into the iron-masked judge and other charlatans so coincidentally.

The person who released the news had a vicious mind and planted it in a good way, and there was no way to refute it even if he gave birth to a hundred mouths. People in the rivers and lakes may have the spirit of chivalry, but most of the words come first, where will they talk about the truth?

I'm afraid that this more than 100-mile journey will not be too peaceful, and I don't know how many Jianghu guests will be intercepted.

It's also strange, why would a good person frame himself?

Xue Zhenjun couldn't figure it out for the time being, and when he came back to his senses, the market was already in front of him. It is quite prosperous here, there are more than ten shops on a long street, there are all kinds of foot shops, tea shops, and cloth villages, but there are no ready-to-wear shops.

Xue Zhenjun took Miaozhen into the cloth village first, cut three feet of cotton cloth according to the style of the remnant picture, went around again, found a family, and gave up the money to buy two clothes.

After the two of them changed their clothes, Xue Zhenjun took off his coat and hat, changed into a green shirt, and wore a scarf, and in a blink of an eye, he became a scholar; Na Miaozhen changed into a jacket and skirt, wrapped a handkerchief around her head, and painted ginger powder on her face, but she became a yellow-faced village woman.

Xue Zhenjun blinked, and it took a long time to identify the person in front of him, and immediately gave a thumbs up: "The teacher is too good a means, and if he dresses up like this, he will bump into the iron-faced judge head-on, and the other party will not be able to recognize it." ”

Miaozhen only gave him a good white eye, turned his head and recited the Buddha's name again, but stopped halfway through the recitation, raised his eyes and looked at Xue Zhenjun and said, "Will you and I take the land route or the water route later?" ”

Xue Zhenjun said: "The waterway is convenient, and go to the dock to see if there are any passing boats, take a boat, and you can get to Shenjing tomorrow morning." ”

The two put away their clothes, pretended to be an ordinary couple, asked where the wharf was, and headed north.

Before he could get out of the bazaar, he saw a Jianghu guest with a knife and a sword breaking into the bazaar with an unkind look. There are arrogant people, and they call passers-by and shops to inquire, but they have ever seen handsome Taoist priests in handsome clothes.

Miao Zhen was so shocked that he didn't dare to raise his head, but Xue Zhenjun looked as usual, and walked slowly in all directions.

He is so down-and-out and generous, but people are not suspicious. When you get out of the bazaar, you can only walk two miles, and you will reach the dock.

Xue Zhenjun was half-hung 'Zi Yue Shiyun', and listened to it, but he found that there was a ship and was about to set off two minutes later. The ship came from Anqing, and the proprietor escorted a batch of rice to Shenjing for sale.

Xue Zhenjun chatted with the old man who looked like a housekeeper, negotiated the fare, and then led Miaozhen onto the big boat.

When I entered the cabin, I saw a vanity scholar bumping into me. Xue Zhenjun turned sideways and avoided slightly, and the scholar staggered a few steps before standing firmly, got up and bowed: "Eh, I slipped under my feet and almost collided with Brother Ren, a sin." ”

Xue Zhenjun smiled and said: "It's okay, it's okay, my brother Guanren must have something urgent, so he panicked." ”

"Yes, Brother Ren, let's go back and talk again, and take the next step."

The scholar walked out of the cabin quickly, Xue Zhenjun turned his head and saw a pretty woman in the cabin showing half of her face to watch, caught a glimpse of Xue Zhenjun's gaze, and immediately shrank back.

The two entered the free cabin under the guidance of the boatman, and each found a stool to sit down, waiting for the ship to travel.

After two moments, the boatmen outside shouted and drove away from the dock with a long pole. The sails were raised, and the big ship sailed down the river in the direction of Shenjing.

Xue Zhenjun talked to Miaozhen for a while, and found out that this woman was simple-minded, but she was very wary. When it comes to the master and the temple, Miao Zhen knows everything; talked about everything before becoming a monk, but he kept silent.

I think that Cao Daoren said that this woman's family was in misfortune, and he couldn't have committed a lawsuit.

And although Miaozhen was annoyed on the surface, she secretly looked at her body with a peek, coupled with the cultivation of hair, Xue Zhenjun knew that this woman's ordination was just an expedient measure, and it was really a fate.

Xue Zhenjun didn't want to provoke any more, so he simply stopped talking and sat back to recuperate. When the twilight was four, the two were waiting for the boatman to bring food, and they heard a pop, and then a male voice cried: "Jinluan, how did you find a short time!" Come on, my lady committed suicide by diving! ”

It was noisy outside, and Miao Zhen's face was tangled, thinking that she wanted to go out and take a look, but she also knew that she shouldn't show her face at random at this time.

Xue Zhenjun just ignored it, opened his eyes slightly and continued to close his eyes to recuperate.

Miaozhen couldn't help but say: "Someone fell into the water outside, why don't you go out and take a look?" ”

Xue Zhenjun only said: "There is no way for good or evil, but people call themselves." If you want to look, go and see. ”

Miao Zhen snorted twice and stopped talking.

After a long time, the noise outside gradually subsided, and finally a boatman brought food. Miao Zhen inquired, and the boatman only said that he was on a couple, and the woman couldn't think of it for a while and threw herself into the water. When it was fished out but it couldn't be saved, the owner was straight and unlucky, and he was patiently discussing the compensation with the scholar.

The crying voice of the scholar outside was faintly heard, and Miao Zhen sighed, only saying that the couple was deeply in love, thinking that they would meet their lover in the future and marry a woman, if they left first, I don't know if their lover would be so affectionate.

After the boatman left, Miao Zhen recited the Buddha's name in a low voice and said: "Poor pair of lovers who flew with wings, but now they are separated by yin and yang, and they are only left alone. ”

Xue Zhenjun opened his eyes, picked up the food indiscriminately, and sneered: "You say that the scholar is a good person, but I am afraid that the dead woman is a bad person in her heart." ”

Miao Zhen was extremely annoyed, and said angrily: "You are used to grandstanding, I say east, you want to say west." That scholar's cry can't be faked, how can he be a villain? ”

Xue Zhenjun said: "If that woman really can't think about it and throws herself into the water, will you sit idly by and ignore me?" It's a pity that the woman has been dead for a long time, but the poor road has no ability to live dead, flesh and bones. ”

"Huh? How do you know that the woman is dead? ”

Xue Zhenjun compared his eyes with a pair of chopsticks: "Shi Tai has ever heard of the Yin and Yang Eyes of the Daomen?" Poor and talented, it just so happens to be able to do this. When he boarded the ship, he saw a woman's ghost wandering in the cabin. After an hour, another woman threw herself into the water, heh, how can this be so coincidental? ”

Miao Zhenwu didn't dare to believe it: "How can this be? If what you say is true, why not expose the scholar's face? ”

"Mrs. Shi's words are wrong, there is no evidence, the poor Dao can't always recruit that woman's ghost to prove it, right?"

Miao Zhen thought about it for a while and said, "Why don't you go straight to the official after you dock." Even if he was the poisoner of the scholar, there are always traces of clues in the cabin. ”

Xue Zhenjun said with a smile: "This is not too much to worry about." ”

"What do you mean by that?"

Xue Zhenjun casually pointed to his feet and said, "This place is an ancient battlefield in the old times, and evil qi gathers. The woman's body is dead, and her soul will not dissipate for a day or two. The scholar's body was vain, his yang energy was decaying, and he was destined to be ordered by the Yin Spirit. But there is no need for the teacher to take action. ”

Miao Zhen was skeptical, and then said: "Strange, isn't the Taoist priest catching ghosts and driving away demons?" How can you let the Yin Soul ask for your life? ”

Xue Zhenjun said with a straight face: "Don't talk about the Daomen on the side, my true martial arts only catch innocent sneakers." For example, the demon cultivator who has no evil deeds, and then asks for a life and a yin soul like this, but it belongs to the way of heaven. We are waiting for the real martial arts to wait and see what happens, and we can't interfere at will. ”

This kind of rhetoric is really the first time I have heard it, and seeing that Xue Zhenjun does not seem to be a fake, he temporarily pressed his thoughts. Immediately, he became nervous again, for fear that the ghost would go crazy and harm the innocent.

In the middle of the night, Miao Zhen traveled a lot during the day, carved his hand to support his cheeks, and raised his head little by little, but he still refused to sleep.

The candles in the cabin flickered, Xue Zhenjun suddenly opened his eyes, and said in a low voice: "It's here." ”

Miao Zhen woke up suddenly, only looked around, and didn't know what to think, only to feel cold all over her body, holding her arms and shivering.

Xue Zhenjun picked up the burden and threw it over, turned his head to look out of the hatch, and after a while, a miserable scream came. In a moment, the footsteps were chaotic, and the knocking on the door was hurried, and immediately a boatman exclaimed: "Oh no, how did this horse scholar die!" ”
