After nightfall, Wuxi County was silent, only the occasional sound of vigilance in the distance brought out a trace of anger, which looked exactly the same as the night Wang Wuwei disappeared, no different.

Xiao Xia, Mingyue, and Shifang are now standing at the mouth of a sewer at the edge of the city, and standing with them is the broken household surnamed Wang.

"This Wuxi county is not big, but this sewer is quite imposing. Looking at the hole below that could drive into a carriage, Xiao Xia couldn't help but nod in admiration. Although some sewage and stench were flowing from it, and there were weeds around it, it was clear that the cave was reinforced with bluestone, and it was clearly built with great care, at least more than many of the dwellings in the city looked like it was.

"Because of its proximity to the sea, abundant rainfall, and occasional heavy rains from typhoons, the construction of this aqueduct is far more important than the walled dwellings. Moreover, the south is humid and hot, if the sewage and garbage in the place where people gather cannot be removed in time, a slight accumulation will lead to plague miasma. Speaking of which, if Zhang Tianshi had not led his sect to help repair the city and dig a canal, this land of Jingnan would never have become a place for human habitation. It is with such great merits that the people of Longhu Mountain have enjoyed hundreds of years of worship and belief is well deserved. ”

Although Shifang is still in that messy appearance, he has finally found the feeling of speaking normally in the past few days, and he no longer looks so stupid and dumb without saying anything. He had obviously done his homework on the situation in this Jingnan land.

"This Brother Shi is right, this Wuxi City was also one of the cities built by the Heavenly Master himself. This underground aqueduct is naturally extraordinary, and no matter how heavy the rain is, there will be no water in the city. The ruined household surnamed Wang couldn't help but take a few more glances at Shifang, as if he was a little puzzled that this unremarkable rural boy was also so knowledgeable.

In other words, it's really easy to hide. Looking at the wide and deep entrance, Xiao Xia nodded thoughtfully. In the past two days, after the broken settlement of the surnamed Wang, he took them to search for those people who disappeared inexplicably. Although there is no clue on the surface, there are now such wide gutter entrances near the missing person. Not counting the other smaller entrances, there are only about a dozen of the main water entrances that can run into the carriage in the entire Wuxi County, which is not much. The missing people were all near the entrance to the canal, and it was easy to conclude that if you thought about it.

The dilapidated household also nodded: "This is also true, I heard that some places where the canals meet are very spacious, if it weren't for some poisonous insects, snakes and rats in it, and the rainwater collection during heavy rains, even if it is a hundred or ten people, it will be no problem." If there really is a monster or a demon demon. It's really possible to lurk inside. ”

"Well, in that case, let's go in and find out. Xiao Xia clapped her hands. "Lao Tzu wants to see what kind of demon sect demon is doing something in it. ”

"Wouldn't this be too risky? What if you really encounter any monsters and monsters?" the broken family surnamed Wang was hesitant and embarrassed when he heard this. "Otherwise, let's go and report to the Dao Masters of the Heavenly Master Sect and let them take a look. ”

Xiao Xia laughed, and with the full beard he stuck to his face, he was a little heroic, and said loudly: "Xia is still a little confident in his martial arts, and he has also caught demons with several Taoist masters in Wuyin Mountain. I've also seen some demon cubs' harmful methods, and I'm confident that I can still deal with them. And my two cousins, although they look a little silly and inconspicuous, actually have a lot of effort. If they can help the Dao Masters of the Heavenly Master Sect find out this demon and demon, they will definitely be impressed, and maybe it will enter the ears of Zhang Tianshi, and next year's demon extermination order will also be recorded. ”

"But but"

"Don't worry, I won't let you accompany us to go down to the danger, Brother Wang. All you have to do is wait here for us. When we go to find out, if we can really catch a monster or something, we will be rewarded. ”

Xiao Xia took a lantern from the broken house surnamed Wang, jumped down, waded into the water, and walked into the mouth of the ditch. Shifang and Mingyue behind him naturally followed. As the footsteps of the three of them faded away in the ditch, the light of the lantern gradually disappeared, and it was obvious that they had really walked into the depths of the ditch.

The broken house surnamed Wang stood on it and watched quietly, and when he really couldn't hear a sound at all, he quietly took out a piece of rune paper from his arms and shook it in the wind, and the rune paper turned into a burst of fire and disappeared.

Half an hour later, there was a faint and almost inaudible sound of footsteps. A middle-aged Taoist appeared in the darkness at the end of the alley, and the broken man surnamed Wang immediately bowed down with a smile on his face: "No, the passage chief, they really went in as you said." ”

This middle-aged Taoist was the one Xiao Xia had met when they first came to Wuxi City, he looked at the dark and silent entrance of the underground water canal, and a smug smile appeared on his face: "Sure enough, it is not what I expected." ”

The broken man surnamed Wang nodded again and again and smiled: "No, the channel is like a god." These people are really asking about the strange things that happened to them recently. Every day, I went to the hotels and inns to ask for drinks and food, and they automatically came to me to ask. And with a little verbal guidance, they found themselves in the entrances of these canals. ”

"It's just three children, now that you know why they came, you can invite you into the urn with a little trick. Then he swept his eyes over the house, and asked, "Have they ever asked you any other strange questions?"

"No, no. The man surnamed Wang shook his head again and again. According to what the Taoist said before, the villain really acted as if he didn't know anything, and he didn't need to deliberately deceive them, and he would naturally do a good job in his daily behavior. Those three people really have no doubts. ”

"Naturally, Fang is the avenue. Those who say that if they want to deceive people, they need nine truths and one falsehood, but they don't know that all of them are true, they just need to pay attention to the way they say it. The no-passer nodded in satisfaction. He took out a piece of rune paper in his hand, and after concentrating for a while, he shook his hand and threw it out, and the rune paper turned into a yellow light and fell on the entrance of the canal, where the earth and stones began to shake slowly, and after a few breaths, it suddenly collapsed with a bang, and actually completely closed the entrance.

The crashing sound was heard far away in the silence of the night, provoking a burst of barking. The broken family surnamed Wang was a little surprised and a little nervous, and the four advisors on the left and right said: "No, the channel leader, isn't this burying them inside?

"Aren't they looking for a monster? So let them go and meet the monsters. The no-passer laughed like an old hen that had caught a weasel. "If they are lucky enough not to die, and if they are lucky enough to send a message, it doesn't hurt that the poor road will save them. ”

"The Taoist is high-minded, the Taoist is high-minded. The broken family surnamed Wang still nodded again and again, and his face was full of charm and almost knelt down and kowtowed. "So can the villain be able to enter the view and use things? The villain does not seek to enter the door of Longhu Mountain. Even if it's just a handyman, it's good. The Taoist promised the villain before, as long as the person who inquired about this matter can be introduced into this canal, in fact, the villain still has some cultivation talent, but there has been no famous teacher to guide him, and the villain in Wuxi City has stepped on it for half his life, and he has already matured it, and next time there is something to do, the villain will help the Taoist to live for a long time."

The people who didn't come to the channel looked at the dilapidated house with smiling eyes and said, "Where." Didn't the miscellaneous servants wronged you? How about asking you to be a golden armor?"

"Ahh "But I heard that this wrestler doesn't need to be the most sincere, and he also needs to have a certain foundation in cultivation?

"If you don't repair enough, you can slowly repair it with a talisman. It doesn't matter if you're sincere or not. While talking and laughing, the fingers of the people who did not pass through the channel pressed a talisman and pointed to the forehead of the broken family surnamed Wang. The talisman turned into a yellow light and flashed into the heart of his eyebrows. The dilapidated look of the surnamed Wang was stunned, and the flattering smile and gratitude on his face slowly disappeared, and all that remained in his eyes was indifference and emptiness, as if he was stupid.

"Well, what Uncle Shi said is really good. Forcibly entering the spiritual platform with this product sealing spell can really erase the sanity of these people who steal the magic of this sect, and turn them into nerds who only listen to the command of the Dao Law. Instead of letting you wander around in this Wuxi City, stealing chickens and dogs. It would be better to fulfill your wish and give the city one less pest. The man looked at the fool in front of him and nodded with satisfaction, tonight was a night of satisfaction for him. "Okay, come with me, if the noise is heard, it will be a little bad to come and see us. ”

The person turned around and walked towards the way he came, his figure was both fast and light, like a cat, and it was clear that his martial arts cultivation was not weak. And the stupid surnamed Wang Po settled down and could only trot closely behind.

But just as the two of them had just taken a few steps, a golden light flashed from afar. A Taoist priest with a face like a crown of jade and flying eyebrows appeared in front of them.

"Senior Brother Yuhong?" the pupils of the non-passerable person shrank suddenly.

###

"Hmph, sure enough, I started to do it. ”

The sound of the entrance collapsing sounded loud and dull in the aqueduct, like a series of angry thunder, but Xiao Xia just glanced back. He didn't even stop, and continued to walk forward with the lantern and stepping on the sewage under his feet.

"Xia Daochang's eyes are like torches, and he has rich experience in the rivers and lakes. The poor monk couldn't see anything wrong with the king benefactor, he was indeed a broken household in the city, even if he had a little Taoist cultivation, he was not a wild way to learn privately from the entrance wall, and there was no deliberate deception when he got along with us in the past two days. In this place where no one is certain, Shifang can finally say back to his original tone, although the top of his head is still stained with the broken pieces that Xiao Xia cut for him, but after his hands are folded and his words are measured, a little of the temperament of a monk slowly resurfaces.

Xiao Xia nodded: "You are not mistaken, the guy surnamed Wang is indeed a shabby, and those words probably did not lie to us." It's just that those truths are also instructed to sue us. Needless to say, it is naturally those Longhu Mountain Taoist priests who are ready to target you. Speaking of which, the person who planned this matter was also a little clever, and knew that he would find a real villain to lure us, and he was telling the truth, but unfortunately that person was a little stupid, and he didn't know that he showed his feet on the first day. ”

"Then why do you have to do that?" asked Shifang, frowning.

"It seems that those Daoists really regard the two of us as people under the shadow guard, otherwise there would be no need for such an awkward and obscure method. Xiao Xia shook her head with a smile. "Could it be that your Pure Land Zen Monastery really has something to do with the shadow guard?"

Shi Fang also looked embarrassed: "This is not that the shadow guard has anything to do with us, it's just that His Majesty treats me with kindness to Buddhism, so when there is a dispute between the two sects of Buddhism and Taoism, the shadow guard has indeed helped us openly and secretly in many places." But those are small places. For a poor monk to come to Jingnan to hunt demons like this, some people in my sect feel that it hurts the face of Longhu Mountain too much, and of course the shadow guards will not help, after all, they are acting from the perspective of the imperial court, even if they are biased, they can't be too obvious. ”

Xiao Xia nodded: "It seems that the leading Taoist priest is a little clever." Or Longhushan has been suppressed too much over the years. Some are suspicious. mistakenly thought that Miss Mingyue and I were the people of the shadow guard, so I didn't dare to use too obvious means against the three of us, so I borrowed some half-truths and half-truths to lead us to this canal, and cut off the way out" After thinking about it, Xiao Xia smiled: "Then congratulations to Master Shifang, it seems that there are really monsters in this Wuxi County." This monster is really in this underground ditch. ”

Shifang was overjoyed when he heard this, but his face was full of doubts: "Really? But I can't detect the slightest demonic aura even now."

"I don't know why this is going on," Xiao Xia spread his hands. "However, since those Dragon and Tiger Mountain Taoist priests have blocked the back road, they clearly want to use this monster to borrow a knife to kill people, at least to teach you, the little monk of the Pure Land Zen Academy, a hard lesson. In other words, they know the details of this monster, and they are sure that you are not the opponent of this monster, hey, so it is really interesting. ”

Even if he knew that the entrance to the canal was sealed, Xiao Xia did not panic in the slightest. He has a lot of talismans in his bag. Even if you want to forcibly blow up that entrance, it is not a difficult task, plus there is Mingyue, the three of them are extremely powerful together, even those big monsters who are enough to board the demon slaying order are confident that they can deal with it.

When Shifang heard this, he frowned. "But whether it is a grass and tree elf or a beast becoming a demon, condensing the vitality of heaven and earth and honing oneself, the more powerful the breath, the less easy it is to cover up If this demon benefactor is really profound, why can't we feel the demon qi at all?"

"What is demonic energy?" Mingyue, who had never spoken, suddenly asked.

"It is the filthy qi that overflows with its own essence and blood vitality mixed with its own characteristics. Therefore, the more powerful the youkai. The thicker the essence qi and blood, the more obvious the demon qi is, if you are familiar with it, you can judge the type and characteristics of the monster just by the demon qi. Xiao Xia explained. Subduing demons and catching ghosts is a serious business for Taoist priests, and some small monsters occasionally appear in the rural villages in remote places, which is a great opportunity for wild Taoist priests to make money. He is also very familiar with those monsters who have opened their minds to birds and beasts since he was a child, and the demon insects of the Xidi people are also a kind of monsters, but after receiving the job and becoming a serious Taoist priest, he was busy with the intrigue between the forces of the rivers and lakes, and he never met any real monsters.

Mingyue didn't seem to understand: "Doesn't that person also have this demonic energy? This kind of qi is very strong, like Fourth Brother Tang, the kind of person who makes the flying sword, even if it is not dirty and smelly, but it also carries the unique smell of his body. Fourth Brother Tang's qi is also the same as his knife. I knew what kind of person he was from a distance. ”

"Er" Xiaoxia couldn't help but scratch her head. Mingyue was actually not wrong in what she said. In fact, the breath of people is also somewhat similar to the demonic spirit, and people with profound martial arts have strong blood and strength, and they also have the characteristics of their own character martial arts. Of course, people don't feel the terrifying and guarded feeling of demonic energy, just like the difference between the body odor of others and the smell of their own body.

"Then the demonic aura on the Taoist priest who specializes in learning spell talismans is different, even if it is not thick, but it is a very deep feeling. It's also somewhat similar to the little monk's. However, like that kind of particularly powerful, such as He Daochang of Maoshan, he doesn't have a little demonic energy, but if you see it with your own eyes, you will think that he is very powerful."

"Amitabha. Even the Confucian sage who pays the most attention to the way of humanity has once said: people are different from beasts, and only adults can protect them. In the eyes of my Buddha, humans and animals are all sentient beings, and they are no different. That's why I said that all sentient beings would be universal. So what Miss Mingyue said is also good, in essence, there is no difference in the popularity of demons, all of them are flesh and blood essence and the natural outward trend of the soul and mind, but human beings are born smart, and the inheritance is exquisite and long-lasting, and the beasts and plants can only cultivate by instinct after opening the spiritual wisdom, the cultivation of the Tao is heavy on the perception of heaven and earth to temper the soul, and the martial arts is heavy on polishing the muscles, bones, qi and blood, so the breath is different. However, no matter which one, after reaching the extremely deep realm, he will return to the innate nature, and finally seek to touch the root of the universe of heaven and earth. The deeper and farther you go in this way, the more you will become one with heaven and earth. Maoshan He Zhangjiao is the realm of Dao Sect Grandmasters, so it is normal for you to feel like that, Miss Mingyue."

"Huh?" Xiao Xia walked in front with a lantern, carefully looking at the road ahead, while carefully lifting the surroundings, while listening to the conversation between Shifang and Mingyue, but suddenly there was a vague feeling in his heart that flashed, as if there was an important matter to understand a little, but after coming back to his senses, he couldn't remember it.
