Next is the Chinese New Year.

Li Chuan was already very famous in Yunqiao Township at this time, and he was sent every day, and he ate fat and round belly, and he had a fat year.

After the first lunar month, Tong Luo left with the demon hunters.

When the plum blossoms were exhausted, Li Chuan finally packed his bags, and he was going to go to Xiushan County, the seat of Chaobing County, to take a walk, and then go all the way south, while eating and shopping, after having almost a good time, he followed Gong Er and San to Tianju Mountain to have a look and cultivate his soul.

On the first day of the plan, it rained, so let's wait for the rain to stop before we go.

On the fifth day of the plan, it was written on the yellow calendar that it was not appropriate to travel today, and after turning a few pages back, I finally found a good day.

Planned ......

Li Chuan stretched out in the early spring sun, carried the bookcase on his back, and just stepped out of the door with one foot, he heard someone knocking on the door.

"Brother Li, is Brother Li here?"

Li Chuan opened the door, and before he could make a sound, he saw a person wearing a Taoist crown and a Taoist robe standing outside the door, and the ruby on the sword was shining, which was the old thing.

Wen Guying saw Li Chuan's appearance, and hurriedly said, "Brother Li is going out?" Luckily, I came by chance, otherwise I would have missed it. ”

Li Chuan silently welcomed the old man in.

The second and third sides of the public knew that they couldn't go out again today, so they crawled out of the bookcase one after another, called Senior Brother Wen, and were tested for a few questions.

Then Wen Guying's eyes turned to Li Chuan and asked, "Brother Li, where are you going?" ”

Li Chuan told him about his travel plan and reminiscence.

Wen should agree and say: "The Qiongdao Lake in Xiushan County is worth visiting, at this time the mountain peaks are dyed green, the willow leaves are rippling, the lake and the mountains are beautiful, it is a good season for boating." ”

Then he said: "I happened to be from Xiushan County, and when I sent them back a few years ago, I said that I was going to look for you, but I didn't expect something to be delayed, and it has been delayed until now." ”

"Is there anything the Daoist is looking for me?" Li Chuan asked.

Wen Shiying replied: "If there is something I want you to help with, let's sit down and talk about it carefully." It may also have something to do with what you did on Xuanshui Mountain. ”

Hearing the three words Xuanshui Mountain, Li Chuan's expression immediately changed.

He kept delaying going out because of the shadow that Xuanshui Mountain gave him.

He is a person who likes to hang outside, as long as he hangs outside, has fun, chats, and does whatever he wants, he feels very happy.

I can't sit still at home.

Yunqiao Township is tired of shopping again.

The winter countryside adventure is over.

For this trip, he specially spent money to buy the latest version of the "Great Demon Collection" and the map of the Great Jiang Dynasty, invited a few caravans to dinner, and asked them to give advice, so he set the current route.

Tong Luo and Wukong both commented that this route is a safe return for individuals with their eyes open.

As a result, as soon as he went out, someone mentioned Xuanshui Mountain to him.

Unlucky.

Wen Guying saw Li Chuan's discomfort and said, "This matter really can't be done without you, let's sit down and talk slowly." ”

Li Chuan had no choice but to bring Wen Guying into the house, remove the cloth, and invite him to sit down.

"Brother Li, after your skills are passed out, there will be a lot of people coming to you, you must gradually get used to these and set up rules," Wen Yuying looked around, "You are too lonely here, and there is no one to boil water and serve tea." ”

Li Chuan didn't answer, but said, "Let's solve today's matter first." ”

"Although Xiushan County is the seat of Chaobing County, because of its long and narrow terrain and crossing many mountains and rivers, it is very remote and uninhabited in some places. ”

Li Chuan nodded, indicating that he knew.

Wen Guying continued: "There is a Xialin village in Xiushan County, in the deep mountains, because of the inconvenient transportation, few people inside come out, and people outside will not go over. A caravan earlier this year sent an old woman and her little granddaughter home. ”

"The old woman's son and daughter-in-law are also members of the caravan, she usually helps cook and do chores in the caravan, and her son and daughter-in-law died of illness a few years ago, so the people of the caravan plan to send the old woman and her granddaughter back to Xialin Village to live before the year."

Li Chuan was a little dazed when he heard it, in his cognition, Daochang Wen should talk to him about some high-level things, how can he talk about these rural gossip?

So he asked.

"Don't worry, it's going to be said right away," Wen Guying said without hurrying, "When they arrived at Xialin Village, they found that all the people in the village were dead, and the death was extremely miserable. And the murderer didn't leave, he waited there, this murderer was an outcast of the Four Divine Palaces, my former junior brother. ”

Li Chuan understood why Wen Guying was involved in this matter.

Wen Guying said: "The murderer's name is Guan Zhongqiu, Brother Li, you may not have heard of this name, but he has a great reputation in Xuanmen, let's put it this way, he is the most talented young monk in the past hundred years, there is no one." ”

"So what can I do?" Li Chuan was still at a loss.

"When the caravan found Xialin Village, it immediately reported to the officials, and then the government arrested him, because the evidence was conclusive, and he was scheduled to be beheaded in the spring of this year."

"Originally, I didn't want to meddle in this matter, after all, if he wanted to escape, it would be very easy, but he didn't escape, no, escaped once, escaped and tried to kill the woman and her little granddaughter."

Li Chuan felt that Wen Jiuying didn't tell the truth, if he really didn't want to interfere, he just ignored it.

"That little granddaughter, who has just turned a year old, can't speak," Wen Guying's expression became heavy, "just when a monk passed by and rescued them, and at the same time shouted out his identity. That's what I've been here for a few years ago. ”

"I went to see him. I've known him for over 100 years, and I can't believe that he would do such a crazy thing, and I want to ask him why. ”

"He begged me to kill the old woman and the young girl for him. He said that there was no one in Xialin Village anymore, and all of them were strange ghosts. ”

"Stranger?" Li Chuan caught a key word.

"The strange ghost is his own name, I don't know what it is, but, more than thirty years ago, he did bring a mortal girl into the Four Divine Palace, immortals many people, there are soul masters and ghost cultivators, and even stole the token, and asked the immortals to come down and investigate the girl's body and soul."

"There is no problem," Wen Guying accentuated: "We all thought that he might have gone wrong in his cultivation and had a demon. He also paid the price for this and became an outcast. Since then, he has rarely been heard from. It turned out that he had been chasing and killing people who went out of Xialin Village all these years, and after they were all killed, he stayed at the entrance of the village, not letting people out or letting people in. ”

"Until he was going to die, he killed them."

"What is the relationship between that girl and your junior brother?" Li Chuan asked.

"She is the old woman, and my brother is pleased with her." Review should be answered.

Then, Wen Guying finally said what he meant, "I've already investigated in Xialin Village, and there is nothing abnormal. So I want to ask Brother Li to go to Xialin Village to see if there is any so-called 'strange ghost', you can rest assured, this trip, I will go with you, I will definitely keep you safe, absolutely not a single monster will be seen." ”

While promising and luring, "No matter what the result is, you can pick a heaven-grade magic weapon from the Four Divine Palaces and take it away." ”

"I can't use the magic weapon," Li Chuan was not dazzled by the magic weapon, he said very sincerely: "I think...... Is it possible that your brother is crazy? Do you want to check him out, like a demon or something? What else, love and can't, mad for him? ”

"I've thought about that too," he asked again, "Brother Li, please come with me and see if there are any strange ghosts or anything else out of the ordinary." If there is, then I will give justice to my junior brother no matter what; If not, I will supervise the beheading on the spot on the day of the questioning. ”

Li Chuan asked, "Then what does this have to do with my affairs on Xuanshui Mountain?" And I'm really just going to tinker things and look at the patterns. ”

"What do you see in the rocks?" Review should be asked.

Li Chuan was very calm: "A slimy insect that can be copied, and the sword qi is directed at the insects." ”

Wen Guying said: "Qin Tianjian has handed over the matter of the secret realm of Xuanshui Mountain to Xuanmen for processing, and at present, the four gods palace, Xuanyue Gate, and Sumeru Mountain have joined forces to investigate, and they have not found the insect you said." ”

"Did Daoist Wen go and see it?" Li Chuan asked.

Wen Guying did not hide it, "I went, I brought a magic weapon, so I saw some traces." I knew it was a sign of illusion, decay. It is about immortals, so it is extremely secretive, and there are very few people who know, Brother Li should be interested, I can answer it for you in detail, and I must know everything and say everything. ”

Having said this, Li Chuan knew that he was not good at refusing, so he took the opportunity to respond: "I was going to Xiushan County, and it won't be in the way of going to you for a trip, but I have a lot of questions in my heart, I don't know if the chief can answer them for me?" ”

"You say." Review should be said.

"At that time, you persuaded me to go to Xuanshui Mountain, do you really think that trip is not dangerous?" He cares about that.

"Really." Wen Guying replied to Li Chuan very seriously, "The Black Horn King has great ambitions, and he will not face Qin Tianjian right now for the sake of a momentary mood." And I wish the girl is also reliable. ”

"There are a lot of demons in Xuanshui Mountain, tens of thousands, the mining demons at the bottom, will they also consider so much?"

After a long time, he said, "It's me who didn't think about it." ”

Looking at Wen Guying's attitude, Li Chuan still didn't believe it, but he decided to let it go for the time being, he said, "Okay, then let's go now?" ”

"Everything depends on Brother Li's convenience."

"Let's go, let's go," Li Chuan beckoned Gong Er to enter the bookcase three times, and then asked Wen Guying: "How do we go, Xianzhou or Edgeworth?" "You can't just walk over there, right?

As soon as he walked out of the house, he flicked his long sleeves, and a carriage appeared in the courtyard, two heroic white horses stood tall with their heads held high, the carriage was gorgeous, and the long curtain was windless.

He said, "I'll give this gadget to Brother Li." ”
