Chapter 245: The Mystery of Life and Death, the Inn is chartered

Bypassing the corpses strewn across the street, Jiang Chen went straight to the collapsed General's Mansion.

He saw Zhang Yuting at a glance, she was coming out of the ruins, her soul was lost, and she seemed to be unable to even hold the dust.

"How's it going, did you find it?"

Zhang Yuting glanced at a vacant look, nodded, and shook his head.

"What do you mean?" Jiang Chen had a toothache for this kind of dumb riddle, "Is it dead or not?" ”

Zhang Yuting took two more steps, until she was in front of Jiang Chen, and the two of them were about to collide, she seemed to regain her consciousness, and said vaguely: "I found it, but it's not him." ”

"Not him?" Jiang Chen took a breath of cold air and asked again, "How did you recognize it?" ”

Could it be that Zhang Yuting could judge a person's identity from the pile of scraps of meat and ashes?

"It's not him." Zhang Yuting muttered and repeated.

"Hey, you make it clear, why not him?" Jiang Chen pressed her shoulders with both hands and shook her vigorously a few times, "How can you prove that it's not him?" ”

Zhang Yuting was so shaken by him that he was about to stand unsteadily, and even the dust slipped from his fingers and fell to the ground.

She looked dazed, panicked and at a loss, and her eyes were uneasy Jiang Chen's face swirled, like a frightened little girl, how could she have the demeanor of a little fairy in the past.

"Tsk, that's pathetic!" Su Yunqing's voice came from behind Jiang Chen, "Looking at her stupid appearance now, it is estimated that she will not react if she is bullied!" Boy, to be honest, are you fighting a bad idea in your heart? ”

Jiang Chen said angrily: "Go while playing with mud!" ”

"Look at this little immortal, when he showed off his martial arts and might, he was going to look for you as soon as they met, and no one could stop him, what has become of him now? This is called self-inflicted iniquity, and you cannot live! Su Yunqing walked to Zhang Yuting's side and blew lightly on her snow-white neck, "Isn't it pitiful, Daochang Zhang?" ”

The tingling sensation on his neck made Zhang Yuting sober up instantly, broke free from Jiang Chen's hand, took a few steps back, and looked at Su Yunqing vigilantly: "What are you doing?" ”

Su Yunqing said with a smile: "I'm betting with this kid, he bragged that three sentences can make you take the initiative to untie your clothes, ask me if you believe it." Of course I didn't believe it, he said to prove it to me right away, and he had to bet me on a cucumber......"

"That's it!" Zhang Yuting's face was slightly annoyed, "The white ghost is not dead, do you know?" ”

Jiang Chen said, "Where did you see that?" ”

Su Yunqing looked at the ruins suspiciously: "Wasn't he carefully chopped into pieces by Shen Yueyang?" Can you still live like this? ”

"He wasn't the one who died." Zhang Yuting raised his left hand, there were only four fingers on it, and there was only a ball of blood on the part of the tail finger, "I once put a forbidden spell on myself, if the white ghost is not dead, this finger will never grow." I found the man's body just now, and tried it with his flesh and blood, not a white ghost. ”

Jiang Chen let out a long sigh, Su Yunqing was no longer in the mood to talk and laugh, and after a while, he suddenly said: "No wonder I think he is so easy to deal with, and the ghost shadow has never appeared...... Where is this dog thing that kills a thousand knives hiding? ”

"I can vaguely sense that what is happening in the west should have something to do with him." Zhang Yuting looked at the sky from afar, half of his face was reflected red by the red moon, "Everything he did before was to pave the way for that incident." ”

Following her gaze, the distant mountains exuded a hazy and berevelous dark red halo, and the four peerless and powerful breaths that were fighting behind the mountains faintly covered the entire desert.

Millions of beings will be watching the outcome of that battle, and the pattern of the dark red dunes will be written by the victors.

However, Jiang Chen thought about it, although the white ghost was powerful, he was probably not qualified to weave such a huge conspiracy alone.

Perhaps there is still the shadow of a behemoth behind the wind and rain building, which was only the tip of the iceberg in the eyes of people before.

Perhaps, it is indispensable to add fuel to the fire of the Green Hades Temple! Zhao Ying's assassination of Luo Jian was also to provide convenience for the white ghost......

"It doesn't matter, it's none of my business to do anything." Jiang Chen pretended to laugh a few times lightly, "I'm just a passing passerby, they call around, they won't even kill all passers-by!" ”

Su Yunqing didn't laugh.

She frowned, a rare look of seriousness.

As a child of a family, she is extremely sensitive to this kind of conspiracy, and her thoughts are more far-reaching than ordinary people.

"There are only a few martial saint-level powerhouses who can compete with the Black Sword Saint, and there are only a few people in the world. No matter which strong man moves, it is an earth-shattering event, how can it be calculated by a villain like Bai Guichou? It shouldn't, it shouldn't......"

Jiang Chen felt bored, turned to Zhang Yuting and said, "What are your plans next?" ”

"I'm in chaos, and I don't know where to go." Zhang Yuting's gaze drifted into the distance, "Maybe...... Let's go back to Zalishan first, it's been some time since I traveled down the mountain, and it's time to go back. ”

"No revenge?"

Zhang Yuting's eyes were like light smoke, and he said abruptly: "The white ghost is worried about where to hide now. And my realm is getting worse and worse, even if I meet him, it is a dead end, and there is no way to talk about revenge. ”

"The little fairy has been frightened." Su Yunqing snorted lightly, "Let her go, hide in the mountains for the rest of her life, and never come out again!" ”

Zhang Yuting pursed his lips, picked up the dust on the ground, and said faintly: "There will be no more little immortals in the world in the future." ”

With that, turn around and walk away.

The lonely back gradually faded away, showing unprecedented thinness, coldness, and pity under the remnants of the red moon.

The ashes of the flames drifted through the air, obscuring the view and making it impossible to see the way forward.

Perhaps somewhere in the distance, there was an equally lonely figure staring at the horizon like this, quietly waiting for her return......

"Jiang Shaoxia, you and I have known each other, thank you for your care these days, if you need help in the future, you can go to Fanghuaguan to find me."

The cold wind blew Jiang Chen's side face, his expression was a little stiff, he was stunned for a moment, and said with his head bowed: "Okay!" ”

The surrounding ruins are full of devastation, and the wind and rain are melancholy in the moonlight.

Seeing that Zhang Yuting's figure was about to disappear from view, Jiang Chen couldn't help but open his mouth and shouted, "Hey! Zhang Daochang! ”

Zhang Yuting's footsteps paused.

Su Yunqing observed the expression on Jiang Chen's face with great interest.

Jiang Chen shouted loudly: "Your suggestion last night, I thought about it carefully, and I think it is very feasible, why don't we find a good day and ...... it."

The sound was still in the air, and Zhang Yuting had turned into a gray shadow, floating briskly from the end of his sight.

Jiang Chen sighed in disappointment, came back to his senses, and saw Su Yunqing looking at him with a smile.

"What are you looking at?" Jiang Chen was a little annoyed and angry.

"Look at you!"

"Have you seen enough?"

"Not enough. A man's expression at the most frustrated moment of failure in courting for pleasure is not enough! Tsk, you should really draw a picture of what you look like now for Ah Xi to seeβ€”ouch! ”

Jiang Chen slapped it with a palm, and Su Yunqing dodged it, but twisted to his waist, fell into the black ash heap, and screamed in his mouth.

"Boy, you've caused me to relapse from my old wounds! Don't you want to help my son up? You give me back, do you hear? Come back! ”

Jiang Chen left the ruins without looking back.

Xue Tumi and Du Juan were muttering some private words, and when they saw Jiang Chen coming back alone, they hurriedly greeted him.

"Is Daochang Zhang gone?"

"Gone."

"What about the charm?"

"Charms?" Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that before the expedition, the two girls had told him that they wanted to ask the little immortal for some charms to nourish yin and nourish the face.

But after a series of battles, he had already forgotten about such a trivial matter.

Jiang Chen touched the back of his head: "That, the charm...... Zhang Daochang said that she didn't need these, so she didn't draw this kind of charm. ”

"Liar! Obviously, there are such charms on the black market, and they are all drawn by the little immortals themselves! ”

Jiang Chen coughed dryly twice and echoed: "Yes, yes, how can a monk deceive people!" Next time I'll talk to her about ......."

In the evening, the red moon fell, and the red glow dissipated, and the sky returned to a gloomy place, and the earth was plunged into darkness.

The four powerful and incomparable breaths that lay across the west disappeared at the same moment.

This means that the battle between the kings has been decided, and the future situation of the desert will depend on the winner's thoughts, and if the Black Sword Saint is defeated, there will be a earth-shaking change on the dark red sand dunes.

However, for ordinary residents, it has nothing to do with who wins or loses, at most, the ruler has changed his name, there are still so many taxes to pay, and the bullies have a lot of exploitation. As long as people can fill their stomachs with that little income, they are satisfied.

Right now, in the eyes of the shopkeeper of the Yuelai Inn, the ownership of a white silver nugget is far more important than the victory or defeat of the Black Sword Saint.

"Charter all your rooms, invite all the other guests out, and the silver ingots will be yours." Su Yunqing leaned against the counter and said proudly.

The shopkeeper looked embarrassed: "Guest officer, we open the door to do business, there is no reason to offend the guests, otherwise how to do business in the future......"

"It's okay." Su Yunqing's right hand knocked on the side of the cabinet a few times, "You just tell them that Jiang Gongzi of the Dawn Hunting Group is here tonight, and everyone who knows each other will quickly avoid it, and each person will be rewarded with two hanging money, otherwise if Jiang Gongzi is to blame, I am afraid that they will not be able to afford it!" ”

Jiang Chen, who was sitting not far away drinking water, turned around when he heard the words and glared at him, but Su Yunqing didn't see it.

"This ......" The shopkeeper stared at the silver ingot on Su Yunqing's palm, swallowed his saliva, and glanced at the guy next to him.

The man's eyes were firmly attracted by the proud figure of the snow not far away, how could he have the heart to pay attention to the eyes of the owner, until he was kicked before he hurriedly came back to his senses, and climbed upstairs with a roll.

Jiang Chen put down the teacup and walked in front of Su Yunqing, and said, "Just have a place to live, what are you doing driving everyone away?" ”

Su Yunqing snorted: "Do you feel that the yin qi here is very heavy?" ”

Jiang Chen said: "This place is close to the ghost realm of Sucheng, and of course the yin qi is very heavy. ”

"It's not just a matter of yin." Su Yunqing stretched out a finger and shook it, lowering her voice, "You haven't felt it yet, there are resentments of the dead everywhere here, so thick that it chokes people, I'm afraid you can't even tell whether it's a person or a ghost in front of you." It's uncomfortable to stay with some strange guests! In order to get a good night's sleep, it is better to spend some money to eliminate the disaster, and ask God to go out! ”

"You're very thoughtful," Jiang Chen nodded thoughtfully......

The blood moon is hidden, the demons are growing, and in his eyes, the scenes of "Hell Scroll" are everywhere, the real and the illusory have been fused, everything is covered with a layer of gray color, or the faces of ghosts who smile or cry haunt every corner. Naturally, he couldn't distinguish the truth and falsehood of the so-called human ghosts.

Suddenly, he asked, "Why don't you give your own name, but what do you do by giving mine?" ”

Su Yunqing said with a smile: "Our Su family has always been knowledgeable and courteous, how could we do such a rude thing as driving people out of the field." So, of course, use your name. ”

"You're so arrogant!"

Suddenly, I heard a gong-like voice from the second floor: "Which turtle son dares to drive Lao Tzu out?" You tell Lao Tzu that Lao Tzu wants to see if you go out or I go out! ”

Jiang Chen followed the prestige, only to see a strong man with thick shoulders and round waist and a bare body walking down scolding, the wooden staircase was clattered by his fat body, as if he could not support it at any time.

"Look, there's trouble."

"What are you afraid of, brother, use your prestige to settle him!"

"Why do you want me to stand out for the trouble?"

"What kind of friendship do we have with our brothers, have fought, slept, robbed women, what else do you and me?"

"When have I slept with you?"

While the two were whispering, the strong man had already gone downstairs with a tom tom, walked to the counter violently, his fierce triangular eyes swept in all directions, his thick arms rested on the counter, and he glared at the shopkeeper and asked, "Which turtle grandson said that he wanted to charter the venue?" Well? Who? ”

The shopkeeper trembled, and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, it's the girl next to you......"

When the strong man saw Su Yunqing's appearance, his triangular eyes lit up, and his face seemed to become softer, but then he saw Su Yunqing shrink behind Jiang Chen, and his face became ugly again.

"It's you, the turtle grandson, who wants to tell Lao Tzu to get out of the way with two hanging money?" The strong man's spit almost sprayed on Jiang Chen's face.

Before Jiang Chen could speak, Su Yunqing behind him spoke first: "It's our Jiang Gongzi who told you to get out, aren't you convinced?" ”

"Hey, hey! What bullshit Jiang Gongzi, dare to be arrogant in front of Huang Sanye! The strong man laughed disdainfully, and his big fan-like hand pushed towards Jiang Chen's shoulder, thinking that the other party's thin little body must not be broken into a rolling gourd.

But unexpectedly, the other party did not move like a mountain, but the force of the backlash made his wrist hurt.

"You kid, you're a bit of a doorman!" The strong man's triangular eyes widened, his tone lowered a little, and his fierceness was a little less, "How do you mix the rivers and lakes, do you understand the rules?" ”

Su Yunqing showed her head from behind Jiang Chen, raised three fingers, and said, "Three hanging money." ”

The strong man's face trembled: "I want to send you Huang Sanye after only three hanging money, you little girl didn't wake up from a dreamβ€”β€”"

"Four hangings." Su Yunqing spread out his slap.

"Hmph, even if you know each other, the third master will let you go today!"

When the money was in hand, Huang Sanye died down, and the other guests naturally couldn't afford to make any waves, so they packed up their things and left one after another.

The inn, which was already small, immediately became deserted.

It was getting dark, candles were lit in the hall, and the faint light of the fire swayed with the night wind leaking in, and in the shadows cast by everyone, the faces of bitterness and resentment were reflected.

Jiang Chen looked down and saw that under the table were some ghosts and ghosts with teeth and claws.

"Go to bed early after eating, two people in a room, take care of each other, don't go out at night, shout loudly when you encounter something, do you hear it?" Su Yunqing commanded.

People nodded yes.

"Lao Xie, you should also drink less wine, this place is not very peaceful, in case you encounter something unclean......"

"Ugh!" Xie Yuanmu burped, "If you really encounter that kind of thing, I can treat it to a drink." ”

Su Yunqing explained a few more words, and the drunken and hazy Xie Yuanyu suddenly put down his wine glass and said, "Someone is here outside!" ”

Su Yunqing frowned when she heard this, and sure enough, she heard footsteps outside approaching this side.

At first glance, it sounds like the footsteps of three or four people, and the landing is extremely light, like a layer of fine down yarn.

But when those people came to the door, Su Yunqing felt that there were two other different breaths, which were extremely well hidden, and if it weren't for her "Listening to Thunder" secret technique, it would be difficult to detect.

Su Yunqing made a gesture of silence.

There was a few soft rustling sounds outside, and someone was pushing the door.

But the door was bolted, and the people outside tried and did not push it open.

Then a different person stepped forward, and with a "bang", the door latch broke in response, and the door opened in the middle.

The cold and howling night wind poured in, as if bringing the outside twilight into the inn, and half of the candles in the hall were extinguished immediately, and the rest did not last long, and after a few struggles, all were extinguished.
