Chapter 8: A Bunch of Catchers
Whew......
With the sound of rapid footsteps running, it continued to approach the broken temple.
Xu Chong couldn't help but feel a little nervous in his heart, and secretly pinched dozens of mung beans and raised his vigilance.
suddenly
Outside the ruined temple, a figure flickered, and then, a group of black-clothed people appeared outside the temple gate.
This group of hunters is fast, there are six people in total.
They were armed with steel knives, their faces covered in dust, and they obviously arrived here overnight with an urgent mission.
Among them, there is a middle-aged fast catcher, with sharp eyes, and the aura exuded from his body is extremely strong, presumably the leader of this group of fast catchers.
Xu Chong saw that the outsiders from the temple were a group of Datang catchers, and his heart was a lot more stable, so he continued to squat next to the fire and take a nap, while secretly observing their every move.
Obviously, the group of people outside caught fast, and they had already noticed that there were people in the broken temple.
When they came in, they found that there were only Xu Chong and the four woodcutters, so they casually said hello, and then began to make a fire to bake.
Six catchers gathered around the fire.
They took off their damp boots and baked them, rubbing their hands together, thinking that the temperature was too low in the middle of the night to freeze them enough.
"Chen Zhutou, drink soju to keep out the cold!"
Another short and strong catcher took out a wine bag and handed it to the middle-aged catcher.
The middle-aged catcher took the soju and poured a few sips, and then handed it to the other five people, taking turns to drink.
The fire was blazing, and after a few sips of soju, the crowd's faces turned red, and they instantly warmed up.
Immediately afterwards, the people took out the kettle and dry food, and began to eat and drink.
Xu Chong sat next to them, and when he saw them eating, he couldn't get hungry, and his stomach began to rumble again.
The middle-aged head catcher seemed to notice, glanced back at him, and then threw a few pancakes over.
Seeing this, Xu Chong hurriedly caught it and thanked him again and again: "Thank you, thank you, thank you." ”
The head catcher smiled and said, "Where are you from?" ”
Xu Chong was really hungry, and he couldn't take care of Yaguan, and while eating pancakes, he said in an unclear tone: "We came down from Wufeng Mountain, and the family teacher is Ziyun Zhenren, the master of Ziyun Temple, because ...... Because of his success in learning and art, he became a teacher and returned to the vulgar. ”
Hearing the three words Ziyunguan, the middle-aged headcatcher's expression became a little strange, but he still said politely: "It turned out to be an immortal disciple, but I was rude." ”
Next, the two casually said a few more polite words, and then stopped communicating.
Xu Chong ate up a few pancakes in one go, and said secretly: It's really fragrant!
This time I was really full.
Sitting next to the warm fire, feel comfortable.
The few arresters next to him gathered in a circle, whispering, as if they were talking about serial murders and wanted felons.
“…… Chen Zhutou, I heard Master Xu say last night that if the murderer can't be arrested this time, I'm afraid that the county commander will hand over the case to the City Patrol Division. ”
"His grandmother's, the main family has given so many rewards, we can't be cheap city patrol division, otherwise, we have worked hard for so long, won't we be able to get any oil and water?"
"Don't worry, I've received the news and learned the whereabouts of the murderer, and he can't escape this time."
"That murderer is stupid enough, not to mention committing murders elsewhere, he even dared to rob and kill Liu Yuanwai's only son in Wu'an County, Liu Yuanwai is also a ruthless character, and he will not hesitate to bankrupt his family to make the murderer pay for his life."
"Chen Zhutou has entered the early stage of martial arts, and the murderer is also in the early stage of martial arts, although he is proficient in one-handed tricks, but with the cooperation of the five of us, he will definitely be able to be arrested."
"It's getting late, we have to hurry, lest we stagger with the murderer......"
This gang of catchers came fast and went fast.
Added up, in the ruined temple, it was only an hour.
In an instant, in the broken temple, only Xu Chong and the four woodcutters remained.
Touching his already full stomach, Xu Chong instructed the four woodcutters, "Before you dissipate, remember to wake me up in advance......
With that, he leaned against a fallen pillar and slowly fell asleep.
In his sleep, he saw a group of bleeding foxes coming to him to ask for his life, and as a result, he directly threw a few handfuls of mung beans out, turned into a group of golden-armored gods, and smashed all the foxes into pulp.
In a daze, he kept talking in his dreams, "Dare to ask me for a bean immortal?" Hell, look for! ”
………………
The next day, it was just dawn.
Xu Chong left the broken temple with four woodcutters.
Still sitting on a wicker chair, being carried by someone swaying.
Now, he enjoyed more and more the pride of being carried on the road.
In this immortal martial world, there are many various immortal masters.
What is the Invisible Immortal, the Wall Piercing Immortal, the Immobilizing Immortal, the Healing Immortal, the Imperial Beast Immortal, the Exorcist Immortal...... In short, no matter what kind of immortal master, compared with the bean sprinkler immortal, the force is obviously one level lower.
Because of the bean sprinkler immortal, as long as the beans are enough, no matter where they go, someone will carry them on the road. As long as he wants, he can wipe his ass without having to do it himself.
Judging from the pomp alone, those chaotic immortal masters are a little weaker.
And the Dou Sprinkler Immortal Master, no matter how he fights, or anything else, he doesn't have to do it himself.
As long as you sprinkle the beans on the ground, you can stand far away, and you don't have to worry about anything, just sprinkle the beans.
This is the immortal demeanor he wants.
The four woodcutters who carried the sedan chair were already in the third wave.
Because the first two groups of people have long since expired and dissipated.
Now these four are just sprinkling beans and conjuring them.
Looking up at the sky, it was almost nine o'clock in the morning.
Xu Chong touched his stomach and began to cooin angrily.
"Liangzhou! When the hell will I be able to reach Liangzhou City? ”
"If this continues, sooner or later I'll get hungry and sick ......"
In the morning, I set off from the ruined temple and walked through the mountains and forests all the time.
According to conservative estimates, at least a few dozen miles of mountain roads have been walked.
According to the distance, he should be at least seventy or eighty miles away from Liangzhou City.
It seems that I don't want to rush to it today, and see if I can get there at noon tomorrow.
Four woodcutters carried him to the top of a col, and then began to trot down the hill.
At the foot of the hill is a flat and open forest, and the endless treetops are all green and yellow.
Xu Chong walked through the flat woods.
All of a sudden.
I heard the sound of gold and iron weapons colliding in front of me, and faintly, there seemed to be a sound of shouting and scolding.
Someone in front of you fighting?
Xu Chong's heart moved, and he was considering whether to bypass it.
But if you think about it carefully, if it is a few bandits who are committing crimes, won't you miss the opportunity to punish the murderers and eliminate the evil and obtain merit?
Why don't you go and have a look?
Big deal, stay a little farther away.
If there are many thieves and they are strong, I will pretend that I don't see them, and I can slip away as fast as I can.
Anyway, there are less than 200 mung beans left, so you have to save some of them.
Be sure to make it until late this evening.
Thinking of this, Xu Chong immediately instructed the four woodcutters: "Carry me over to have a look, remember to stay away, just be able to see clearly." ”
