Chapter 53: Disaster in the Red Face
Because there was Cai Chun on the sword, in order to take care of her, Xu Huaigu's flying sword was not fast, and when the group returned to the mansion, it was already the afternoon of the next day.
From the height of the flying sword, the village in this seaside swamp looks no different from yesterday, surrounded by lush trees, and not far away is the boundless ocean of blue and jewels, giving birth to Ling Ling waves in the sun.
Although the scenery is the same as yesterday, the village is truly different. The spirit of this village is no longer the feeling of lifelessness, but gives people a sense of freshness for the rest of their lives.
Sure enough, with Tao Wen's death, this village is different. Xu Huaigu led the group to the ground, but saw that the thatched house was still the same as yesterday, Xu Huaigu opened one of the rooms and went in to take a look, and found that the ghosts that had been left by Tao Wen with evil magic had disappeared, leaving only an empty house.
When Granny Miao saw this scene, her face was full of smiles, and she said to Xu Huaigu: "These ghosts are also unjustly killed, they have no nostalgia for the world, and they shouldn't have become ghosts, but they will stay because they are blocked by Tao Wen with evil magic." Now that Tao Wen is dead, they should also be reincarnated, the sword fairy has saved so many ghosts, he has accumulated great merit, and he will definitely have good rewards in the future. "Good news?
Do good deeds and get rewarded? Xu Huaigu is no longer the fledgling child he was back then, and good rewards are not brought by good deeds, but by the realm.
Xu Huaigu smiled and asked Granny Miao rhetorically: "The old man is well-informed, but you can tell me whether the merits and karmic obstacles that this monk values are really done?" Granny Miao said: "This is all passed down by the older generation of people, if the sword fairy insists on finding examples, there are people who have done good deeds all their lives and ended miserably, and there are bullies who have done evil all their lives but live happier than anyone, then it is really impossible to say." However, I believe that if you do good deeds, there will be benefits, and it is better than doing bad deeds. Xu Huaigu nodded thoughtfully and stopped talking.
Gu Yueyue felt that Xu Huaigu was a little strange, walked up to him, and asked cautiously, "Master, what's wrong with you today?" Xu Huaigu looked at her, smiled, and said, "It's nothing, it's just that I thought of something." He seemed to remember, and asked again: "By the way, March, do you think it is really useful to protect yourself and the people around you, and do good deeds?" Gu March thought about it seriously and said, "Although the two are not directly related, it can't be said that they are useless, after all, doing good deeds is better than doing bad deeds." Xu Huaigu asked again: "What about the realm?" Is the realm useful? Gu Yue said without thinking: "Of course it is useful, the realm is the most useful." After all, when the truth doesn't make sense, you have to rely on the realm. For example, this time, if it weren't for Master, your high realm and powerful swordsmanship, our group would really be planted in the hands of this Tao Wen. However, there is no conflict between the realm and doing good deeds, we can do good deeds while improving the realm. Xu Huaigu said: "But how can there be so many such good things in this world? Many times, there is a conflict between raising the realm and doing good deeds. Xu Huaigu seemed to remember something, and said to her: "I once met a person, an old Taoist priest in black, who is considered a ghost cultivator. He has a wind chime in his hand, which is an evil thing, and he has to absorb the essence and blood of people to be able to repair it to the rank of an immortal soldier. In order to improve his strength, he did not hesitate to collude with another ghost, intending to kill the lives of the people of the entire city, do you think this is right? Gu Yueyue looked at Xu Huaigu in confusion and said strangely: "Of course it's not right, how can you build your strength on other people's lives?" Of course not. Master, what's wrong with you today, why do you ask such questions? Xu Huaigu's face was not shocked, he didn't speak, just nodded slightly, and continued to walk in the direction of the house.
Granny Miao led the way in front, and soon after, several people entered the house, and then walked from the front yard to the corridor leading to the embroidery building.
After turning a corner, Granny Miao stopped, pointed to a small room at the bend, and said to Xu Huaigu: "Xu Jianxian, I put that bracelet inside." "This turning place is the place where Xu Huaigu and Granny Miao entered the secret realm last time.
Granny Miao didn't deceive him, if that bracelet really existed, it could only be in it. Granny Miao took out a large set of keys from her body, skillfully pulled out one and opened the door.
Xu Huaigu took the lead in pushing open the door, and it seemed to be a small room similar to an ancestral hall, a statue of unknown person was located at the height of the door, and there was a copper incense burner full of patina below, and there were still a few unburned incense sticks in it, which should have been extinguished before playing less.
There are also a few cobwebs on the incense burner, and at first glance it looks like no one has used it for a long time. Granny Miao stepped forward, removed the cobwebs on the incense burner, and sighed and said, "This is still the statue of Tao Wen when the house was just built, and this statue is the old lady of our Cai family." At that time, he was afraid that the young lady would become ill in the house, so he made a statue, but it was also a thought. Cai Chun snorted coldly in the back, and said unhappily: "If he really wants me to be good, he shouldn't treat me like that!" Granny Miao was very obedient to Cai Yin, so she no longer bothered with the cobwebs, but walked to a corner of the room, wiped the dust on the corner wall, and then gently moved a brick in the corner.
There was a mechanism on that brick, and slowly, the whole brick was taken out by Granny Miao, and a small dark grid appeared inside.
She put her hand in it and pulled out a small box of dark wood. Everyone's eyes were curiously focused on the black wooden box, and they saw Granny Miao handing the box to Xu Huaigu without hurry, and Xu Huaigu slowly opened the lid of the box.
A pitch-black jade bracelet was indeed lying quietly inside, Xu Huaigu picked up the bracelet and looked at it carefully in front of him.
Although this jade bracelet is pitch black, it is very lubricated and shiny, and it is very comfortable to touch, giving people a warm feeling.
And black jade is indeed rare, the first time Xu Huaigu saw this black jade, he came up with the idea that this jade is not simple.
However, according to Granny Miao, this jade bracelet must be an immortal artifact, so he released a small wisp of aura to go in to investigate, and soon he got the answer.
After the aura enters the jade bracelet, it is like a fish in water, lively and smooth, and the jade bracelet has a very high degree of compatibility with the aura, and it is indeed not bad.
But although Xu Huaigu used aura, he didn't know what the purpose of this jade bracelet was, but it didn't look like a killing thing, but like an auxiliary thing, so after thinking about it, he frowned and said: "This thing is not an immortal soldier, it can only be said to be a magic weapon with good quality." Granny Miao, don't you really know what this bracelet is for? Granny Miao shook her head helplessly and said, "I really don't know what it's used for, but I know that it's not ordinary, enough to suppress that small secret realm." Xu Huaigu looked at this bracelet for a long time, thinking in his heart whether the function of this bracelet itself should be the secret realm of suppression, right?
Otherwise, with a bracelet of magic weapon rank, it should not be able to support a secret realm, even if it is only the smallest.
Otherwise, wouldn't Xu Huaigu's two swords also be able to support the secret realm? So the world is not chaotic anymore?
Feeling that this bracelet was useless, Xu Huaigu was a little disappointed, and after thinking about it, he handed the bracelet to Gu Yueyue and said;
"You don't have an immortal artifact on you, this thing will be given to you, and I'll tell you the refining mantra later." Gu March suddenly got this bracelet, and she was very surprised in her heart.
This was the first treasure Xu Huaigu gave her, she immediately smiled and said happily: "Thank you, Master!" Then she quickly put the bracelet on her wrist with joy, not too big or too small, and it looked very pleasant.
After dealing with the whereabouts of the bracelet, Xu Huaigu glanced around at the house and felt that there was nothing to see, so he yawned boredly and said: "The matter is done, the people have been rescued, I still have things to do, so I won't accompany you." There is no banquet in the world that will never be dispersed, how about we leave here? When Cai Yin heard that Xu Huaigu was leaving, he was anxious, so he hurriedly stepped forward and shouted to Xu Huaigu: "Immortal Chief, please wait!" The little woman was poisoned by Tao Wen, and at this time she left her hometown and had nowhere to go, so please ask the fairy chief to help people to the end, take me in! It's just to be a little girl who brings tea and water, and I'm willing to do it! Xu Huaigu felt funny, tilted his head, looked at her and said, "Who gave you the guts?" If you want to follow me on the road, why, just because we have met once, just because you have a miserable life, I will not only save you, but also take you by my side? There are no such rules in this world! Reading the book Xu Huaigu's tone was not good, and it was more like a scolding in the ears of the group, Cai Chun suddenly turned pale with fright, the beautiful fox's face trembled slightly, and Danfeng's eyes were full of panic.
Cai Chun originally thought that with his beauty, no matter what, this immortal chief would definitely be willing to take him in, and when the time came, he would not be far behind if he followed this promising immortal chief.
Who knew that the beauty that he had always been proud of did not work in Xu Huaigu at all, but only aroused Xu Huaigu's disgust.
When Granny Miao saw this scene, she knew that Miss was short-sighted, so she hurriedly stepped forward to apologize and said, "Sword Immortal is serious, Miss has been locked up in the house for so long, so she is a little confused about the future." The Sword Immortal was able to help us kill Tao Wen, and the two of us were already grateful, and we didn't dare to have any other extravagant hopes. Now that the Sword Immortal wants to continue on the road, we can only wish the Sword Immortal smooth sailing and all our wishes come true. Xu Huaigu's face changed quickly, smiled and said: "The old man is still sensible, I accepted the bracelet, I will leave here at this moment, I hope the old man and Miss Cai can find a place to live as soon as possible." Granny Miao thanked and thanked, and said goodbye, Xu Huaigu took Gu March and left the house, Dai Xin and Yu Qingqing followed Xu Huaigu and left the beach together, and the four of them had to walk for a while, go to the nearest town, and then make plans to go on the road.
Cai Chun was in the house, looking at Xu Huaigu's distant back, she was ashamed and unwilling in her heart, she bit her lip and didn't say a word.
Granny Miao glanced at Cai Yin helplessly, and persuaded: "Miss, this Xu Jianxian is not an ordinary person, her vision is extremely high, although Miss's appearance is overwhelming, but her behavior can't enter the eyes of that sword immortal!" I'm afraid it won't be possible to see each other in the future, but Miss is still dead to him. Cai Chun stomped his feet angrily and said hatefully: "What's the big deal, isn't it just a monk, the shelf is bigger than the emperor!" This sentence frightened Granny Miao, quickly covered her mouth, and said anxiously: "Miss, I can't say it!" The monk's supernatural powers are unpredictable, and if that person hears it, it will be a blessing or a curse, and it will have to be reversed! Cai Chun frowned, she couldn't even scold, she was deflated and said, "Mother-in-law, then where do you say we will go in the future?" Where in the world is there a place for us? Granny Miao said: "In my opinion, we will find a small city in Dachen Country to settle down, and I still have the strength to continue to serve Miss for many years." When the time comes, she will earn a dowry for Miss, and Miss will marry a good person with peace of mind, and she will have a dull past in this life. Cai Chun shook his head resolutely and said: "No, I don't want this life to pass so ordinary, I want to go to the capital, I want to make a career!" Granny Miao frowned and persuaded: "Miss, our Cai family tree is scattered, and we don't have any friends in the capital anymore, who should we take refuge in going to the capital like this?" Cai Chun clenched his fists and said;
"Why do you have to take refuge in anyone, can't I rely on myself! With my face, I will definitely make a name for myself in Da Chen Guo, and even if it stirs up the waves of Da Chen Guo at that time, it will be 10,000 times better than dying quietly! ”
