163. Payment

Bai Gu had just finished his daily noon walk when he heard a knock on the door.

Bai Gu glanced at Bai Xiaoxiao, who was not sleeping and was playing with puppets on the bed.

Bai Xiaoxiao immediately understood, put on a dress, and jumped out of bed to open the door.

"Hello Brother Wang! My brother is inside. ”

The person who came was Wang Xizhou.

"It's so good." Wang Xizhou greeted Bai Xiaoxiao with a smile, and then looked up at Bai Gu by the window, "I didn't bother you, Xiaobai." ”

"No, no, I just have nothing to do, sitting in a daze." Bai Gu got up and sat at the wooden table with Wang Xizhou.

In the morning, Bai Gu had already taken a painkiller given by Lao Liu, and now it doesn't hurt much.

It works great.

After Bai Xiaoxiao closed the door, she trotted all the way back to bed and continued to play with the little puppet that Bai Gu bought for her in the morning.

Bai Gu's eyes fell on the puppet in Bai Xiaoxiao's hand.

It's a little monkey dressed in a funny colorful outfit, with an exaggerated expression on its face and a twist at the joints, which is funny.

Bai Gu saw that many parents bought it for their children, so he also picked one for Bai Xiaoxiao.

Originally, Bai Gu wanted to buy a butterfly puppet, but a child took the lead and took the lead.

Bai Gu saw that the child's family was not wealthy, so he went to the pharmacy to do hard labor, moved countless baskets of medicinal materials, and saved enough money to buy a puppet.

Seeing the child, Bai Gu remembered himself a few years ago.

At that time, not long after Mrs. Bai died, Bai Gu came to Yunshui City for the first time to find food to fill his stomach, and there were many strange things in Yunshui City, which made Bai Gu, who was full of curiosity, dazzled.

There are also many small vendors selling puppet dolls on Baihua Street, and Bai Gu is standing in front of those stalls, completely unable to move.

Because he had no money in his pocket, Bai Gu could only watch, and he didn't even dare to get closer.

is also because he lingered in front of the puppet doll's stall for too long, that day, Bai Gu not only couldn't ask for a single piece of dregs, but was also chased and scolded by several small traders in turn.

And because it was the first time to go back and forth between Lingding Lane and Yunshui City, Bai Gu didn't know the way, and when he returned to Lingding Lane, the sky was already slightly bright.

After not eating for nearly two days and walking so far, Bai Gu could be said to be hungry and crazy at that time, so he squatted at the entrance of the alley and frantically stuffed the snow into his mouth. Although it was cold from the throat to the stomach, there was something in the stomach, and it was better to talk than nothing.

It was also at that time that Bai Gu met Brother Peng.

Since then, Bai Gu's life has improved a little bit with the help of Brother Peng.

Not much, but enough for Bai Gu to barely survive.

That child, very similar to Bai Gu a few years ago, is struggling for the real life and the dreams in his heart, just like ...... A fish that came ashore and dehydrated, in order to survive, struggled to jump on the ground, trying to get back into the water.

Bai Gu is reluctant to argue with a child over a doll.

He didn't want to sweep away the interest that a child had accumulated for an unknown amount of time.

Mr. Tang once said that this is called adult beauty.

I believe that Xiaoxiao can understand.

Let's add her a butterfly doll next time.

I can just make a pair.

Bai Gu retracted his gaze and poured a glass of water for Wang Xizhou, "Brother Wang, is there something wrong?" ”

It stands to reason that now is the time for a lunch break, and even if you don't sleep, you will take a break.

At this point in time, he came to the door and said that it was fine, but Bai Gu didn't believe it.

Wang Xizhou nodded and said, "There is something." Remember the shopkeeper of the gasping building, right? He disappeared inexplicably during the mountain god sacrifice, and we still haven't been able to find his whereabouts. His father was an old acquaintance with Xizhou, so he asked Xizhou to help him find it. Xizhou has also been searching everywhere in the past few days, but nothing has been found. ”

Bai Gu thought of the young shopkeeper who was napping in broad daylight and on duty in the middle of the night, "Huh? He's gone? I thought I was hiding. ”

"That's him. So Xizhou came here this time to ask Xiaobai, do you have any views on this matter? ”

Bai Gu's face was strange, "Maybe he was swept away by the aftermath and fell in a relatively hidden place?" ”

What can I think?

I didn't know both father and son, one had only sat together for a few meals and a few conversations, and the other had never even met, not much better than the strangers I met on the road.

To put it mildly, what does their life and death have to do with me? I have sisters to worry about, what are they? Besides, they will have someone to worry about, and it won't be my turn to worry about it.

So Bai Gu came up with an idea quite casually and dealt with Wang Xizhou's problem.

Wang Xizhou pretended not to hear the perfunctory tone in Bai Gu's tone, "A few days ago, Brother Duan and Xizhou had already searched all around Jiaoyue Mountain, and there was no trace of Zhang Shi. ”

Seeing Bai Gu's doubts, Wang Xizhou explained: "Zhang Shi is the shopkeeper of the panting small building. ”

Bai Gu suddenly said, "Then it shouldn't have been accidentally killed by that shadow, and there is not even a scum left, right?" ”

Wang Xizhou hesitated for a moment, "This situation is not impossible. ”

Bai Gu looked at Wang Xizhou's slightly hesitant face, and knew that this guy had already had this kind of thoughts and guesses, so he was not so stunned.

It's just this constipated expression, could it be that there is something else?

"Could it be that the shopkeeper Zhang is not dead?"

Wang Xizhou sighed lightly, "If Zhang Shi is dead, Xizhou is not so worried. Although it is bad news, at least I can have an explanation with the old shopkeeper Zhang. It's just that according to the current situation, it is unlikely that Zhang Shi will die. Brother Duan is a wind traveler, and he has a mountain search technique, which is very suitable for searching for people and things. Xizhou has been walking in the mountains and wading for many years, and there will be some hope for the fur. A few days ago, Brother Duan and Xizhou joined forces, but they didn't gain anything. ”

Bai Gu was stunned.

If it is said that Wang Xizhou of the Spirit Devouring Realm will only have some fur to look for people, the conclusion drawn is not very convincing. So Duan Che, a full-time traveler who searches mountains and rivers and records humanistic customs, his shot is very different.

If you can't find anyone even a wind traveler who has vented the world, this matter will be a big deal.

"So Brother Wang, what do you think will happen?"

Wang Xizhou's face was heavy, "It's hard to say, because at that time, the woman's phantom made a move, and it was difficult for several of us to resist, and we didn't even know when the woman's phantom would retreat, and Zhang Shi's situation was even more difficult to say." ”

Having said this, Bai Gu understood what Wang Xizhou meant.

He was worried that Zhang Shi would be captured by the female phantom of Jiaoyue Mountain and enslaved into a puppet under his hands, or even ...... Refining alive and becoming the nutrient of women's illusory cultivation!

The matter of cultivating evil arts with living people, Bai Gu has also heard a lot in the ant hall. When chatting with Bai Gu Duan Che a few days ago, I mentioned it a few times, and Duan Che also said that it existed, but this matter was angry and resentful, and it was not tolerated by the world, and it was an out-and-out evil way.

Bai Gu picked up the teacup and took a sip of boiled water, "Brother Wang, if it's really the ghost of that phantom, I'm afraid we won't be able to do anything with the two of us." You must know that there was still Brother Duan, the Pifan Realm, present that night, and it was a tie at most. ”

Wang Xizhou smiled, "You can rest assured about this, Xizhou went to a nearby city and found a few friends, who are also Shanshui Lang in Shanshui Fang." One of them is naturally invincible to spirits and ghosts, and can fight them across borders. ”

"What's the win?"

"You can understand it as a kind of restraint relationship, just like a cat eating a mouse, water can extinguish fires, this Shanshui Lang has a natural overwhelm over spirits and ghosts. For spirits and ghosts, this one is the seal of a party's walking, and they are a blank sheet of paper that is powerless to resist, and can only be obediently suppressed. The process is like stamping, and the quality of the payment is whether they were killed or injured after the war. Wang Xizhou explained.

Bai Gu nodded, indicating that he understood, "The female phantom is the cultivation of the Mortal Realm, it seems to be stronger than Brother Duan, with the help of this Shanshui Lang, it should be no problem, right?" ”

Wang Xizhou said with a smile: "If that woman's phantom cultivation remains unchanged, with the help of this friend, you can use that woman's phantom shadow as a spirit swallowing realm, it's not a big problem." ”

Bai Gu gasped, "Directly press the realm?!" So domineering? ”

If this is to suppress a small realm, it will be okay, and some powerful Dao weapons will also have this effect. But there was nothing, so people just stood there, and the opposite side directly fell into a big realm.

What else is this fighting? The opposite side directly raised his hand and surrendered!

Wang Xizhou smiled, "It is rumored that there are gods, ghosts and ghosts see them as if they see the heavens and the earth, the body is bathed in thunder, the bones are washed in fire, ignoring the realm, and naturally overwhelming all ghosts in the world." Xizhou's friend can be said to be the man of God...... Microcosm. ”

"Ignoring the realm?" Bai Gu was full of shock, "Even if he is a mortal, the other party is a ...... Saint-level ghosts, the same direct victory? ”

Wang Xizhou nodded.

Bai Gu's whole body was numb.

There are nine realms on the path of cultivation, and this ninth realm is the realm of saints!

Saint, that is higher than the sky, more dazzling than the sun. Looking at the world, there are very few people who can be among the saints, and it is said that it is rare, and they all elevate this word.

But even if it's such a character, oh no, ghosts, when they encounter a natural invincible existence, they will also fall into the realm, and even bow down!

That's what people call cultivation! Born with a special function, which is of great benefit to one's own cultivation.

On the other hand, he has nothing, just a very ordinary ordinary person.

Bai Gu rolled his eyes in his heart.

Sure enough, you still have to recognize the reality, you are an ordinary guy. If it weren't for the help of the old guy, I'm afraid I would still be wandering between Lingding Lane and Yunshui City, and the alleys that worry about eating every day would be ruined.

Nothing.

However, Bai Gu quickly collected his emotions.

Now is not the time to be sad.

"Even if you encounter that woman's phantom again, it shouldn't be difficult to win with that Shanshui Lang's natural overwhelm. In that case, what is Brother Wang still coming to me for? Wouldn't it be nice to go directly to Jiaoyue Mountain? ”

Wang Xizhou looked at Bai Gu with a sincere expression, "Last time, Brother Duan and the three of us had a hard time facing the woman's phantom, but in the end, we also managed to retreat. Xizhou thought about it later, maybe Xiaobai, you are lucky to help us get out of danger. So this time, Xizhou is brave and wants you to go to Jiaoyue Mountain with us, and add some luck for us, just in case. ”

The corners of Bai Gu's mouth couldn't help twitching twice.

Hey, no, you guys are in the Spirit Devouring Realm, and you want me to give you a Soul Enlightenment Realm?

Would you like to hear what you're talking about?
