Chapter 40: The Rat

Taishan's one-night adventure seemed like a dream to Liang Yu, and the experience of a few hours seemed to have passed for several days, and it was precisely after these experiences that he felt that his cultivation had improved again, perhaps it was not much different from the ninth level of Ziyang Xuanzhengong...

Qin Ruoming had already hung the jade plate that Meng Xia had turned into on his chest at this moment, he was going to hang the brand on his waist, after all, Meng Xia was a banshee, and it was embarrassing to put it close to him, but Meng Xia told him that putting the jade plate close to his chest would make it easier for him to nourish his body with the qi of Aoki, so that he could recover as soon as possible.

Thinking that he would inevitably face a vicious battle outside the gate, and recovering as soon as possible was really the top priority, Qin Ruoming agreed, and after the jade plate came into contact with his skin, a warm current instantly radiated, which really made him feel the vitality from the jade brand.

Two days later, Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming arrived at Yongping, it was already dusk, and not far north from here was Haishan Pass, and once they got out of Haishan Pass, they also entered the boundary of Liaodong.

When they came to Yongping, Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming saw many refugees fleeing the war, most of them dragged their families, their clothes were ragged, and their faces were gray, or they lay on the ground with straw mats on the side of the road, or simply took the old and the young to ask for food.

In stark contrast to those refugees are those who wear robes or monk's robes. They are all extraordinary, both men and women, they are all in a hurry, and their directions are surprisingly consistent, they are all going in the opposite direction with the refugees, heading north.

"Sure enough, as the eunuch Wei Chao said, all the sects have selected people to come. Qin Ruoming pointed to a pair of men and women in cyan robes who had just galloped by on the official road in the distance, and said to Liang Yu, "Look, that's the people of the Sanmao Sect... Although the Taoist robe is also cyan, their Taoist robe is embroidered with a cloud dragon, and our Eastern Immortal Sect is a flying crane. ”

When they were about to stay in an inn, Qin Ruoming stopped Liang Yu at the door again, raised his chin to signal Liang Yu, and whispered: "The two people who are talking to the shopkeeper are the people from the Praruo Temple, the young one I know, and the leader of the younger generation of the Shi family..."

For the first time, Liang Yu met the people in the passage outside the sect as a monk, and he felt fresh in his heart, and said, "Senior brother, since we are on the same road, and we all want to stay here, why don't we go and say hello?"

Qin Ruoming pointed at himself and Liang Yu, and said with a wry smile: "You and I are dressed in clothes... It's too embarrassing for the teacher to be tattered like this..."

Seeing the two masters of the Praruo Temple wearing monk robes and holding Zen sticks go upstairs, Qin Ruoming walked into the inn.

The shopkeeper saw that he and Liang Yu were dressed in tattered clothes, tilted their mouths, and was about to ridicule them, but when he saw the two sturdy and sturdy high-headed horses tied to the door of the two, he immediately changed his face and said, "The two of you are beggars to help the disciples come to stay?"

Qin Ruoming saw this person's philistine appearance early in the morning, and said lightly: "This place is not far from the border pass, which one dares to stay here? Our brothers and sisters have one room and two beds, just be clean." ”

Although he denied that he was a disciple of the Beggar Gang, the shopkeeper saw that he spoke and behaved in the style of everyone, and he did not dare to slack off, and shouted: "Okay! Xiao Er, take the two guest officers upstairs!"

Liang Yu instructed: "We have to hurry tomorrow, help us tie up and feed the horses!"

After entering the guest room, Qin Ruoming and Liang Yu immediately threw themselves on the bed, seeing that they were about to arrive outside the gate, there was still enough time, and the fatigue of the road could finally be relieved at this time.

After dinner, Liang Yu hesitated and said to Qin Ruoming: "Senior brother, back then, you and Master rescued me from Fushun, but I still have my mother in the north of Fushun City, and I have been away from home for two years now, and I don't think about her anymore all the time... So I want to take this opportunity to go and find my mother!"

Qin Ruoming was surprised: "Why didn't you say this earlier... Now that the deadline for the agreement with the imperial court is approaching, how can we still have time to go to Fushun? Besides, now that Fushun is the territory of Houjin, how can we get there?"

Liang Yu thought that this matter must be as soon as possible, in case Liang Yu's mother dies once, he really can't make a difference, and the Jiuyang jade seal will completely become an ornament... So he continued to fight: "Why don't you go to the border first, senior brother, and have an explanation, and I will leave early tomorrow morning and rush back as soon as possible after the matter is completed, how about it?"

Qin Ruoming nodded and said, "It's okay." Anyway, you have been gone for two years, and there is no news, and you are really pitiful old man!"

Early the next morning, Qin Ruoming saw the two masters of the Praruo Temple out of the inn in front of the window, so he and Liang Yu got out of the inn and continued to go north.

After half a day's effort, the two of them have come to the front of Haishan Pass, at this time there are officers and soldiers inside and outside Haishan Pass, and they have stepped up the investigation of pedestrians, for fear that Houjin Tatar's fine work will enter the pass to spy on them.

Although they showed the officers and soldiers guarding the customs the customs clearance documents left by the eunuch Wei Dynasty, they were still searched and checked, but fortunately, the weapons of the two were hidden in their respective storage weapons - the white jade ring on the middle finger of Qin Ruoming's right hand is called the empty Ming ring, and the jade talisman on Liang Yu's waist is called the Wuji Order.

The two storage vessels were both given by their respective masters, and they are both treasures that can store thousands of items in them, which is roughly the same as the principle of "Na Sumeru in mustard seeds".

Before going out to Haishan Pass, the two bought clean clothes from the vendors and changed them, and then continued to run north for a day, and then at dusk, they had reached the edge of Quang Ninh City. Looking at the direction of the city gate, there are still pedestrians entering and exiting at this time, and it is the people who go out of the city, but most of the people who enter the city are officers and soldiers.

"When we arrive at the city gate, as soon as we hand over the papers, I'm afraid we will be sent to the barracks, you have to go to Fushun, and now is the time to separate from me..."Qin Ruoming said, pointing towards a small road in the northeast, "This road can go directly to Fushun City!"

Liang Yu hugged his fist at Qin Ruoming and said: "If Liang Yu finds his mother, he will come to find his senior brother after settling down in her old man's house, if there is no result, he will return on time, and he will not dare to abolish his public affairs for personal gain." ”

"Take care!"

"Take care!"

After saying goodbye, the two brothers, who had just lived and died together, looked back at each other again before riding their horses again and leaving in the dust.

An hour later, Liang Yu had run nearly twenty miles along the path, when night fell, and the horses were tired, but fortunately there was a small village not far ahead, so he planned to go and stay overnight.

As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the village, Liang Yu stood vigilantly, because there was not even a little light in the entire village, and there was a not very strong rancid smell flowing in the air, which could not help but make people feel weird.

By the moonlight, Liang Yu rode into the village cautiously. There was a deathly silence in the village, and the village roads were lined with unsightly debris. He looked into the distance and thought to himself, "This place is dead, it must have been war... But some houses are better than sleeping in the wilderness!"

Liang Yu was looking for a place to stay in the darkness, but suddenly heard a few "squeaks" and "squeaks" from the small courtyard of the farmhouse behind him and in front of him, the sound was like a mouse, but it was much louder than the rat cries he usually heard.

Click... Click...

On the courtyard wall of the small courtyard climbed several half-human-high black shadows one after another, each of which looked as if they were sitting on the wall, and their eyes were shining with a dark red glow, like a small red light that flickered on and off.

"Squeak" "Squeak"

As the cry became more and more frequent, the number of small red lights also increased, Liang Yu looked at it carefully and smiled: "It turns out that they are really rats, but they are bigger..."

As soon as the words fell, nearly twenty giant rats jumped out of the wall one after another, heading straight for Liang Yu! They were very fast, and they seemed to have a lot of momentum, but for Liang Yu, they were too insignificant!

I saw Liang Yu fluttering freely in the criss-crossing gaps of these big rats for a few moments, and then flashed to the back of the rat swarm, and then made a handprint with both hands, and threw out a fire sickle that was not very big in the face of the rat swarm that was swarming again!

Liang Yu tried this mysterious fire control technique for the first time, and his heart suddenly burst with joy: "When I came back from the Yin and Yang Realm, I felt that my cultivation had increased a lot, and I don't know if it was because of taking that snake Miao Shu Neidan, or because I continued to use the triple method to wash the meridians and fight the enemy desperately during this time... Try it now, and sure enough!"

Because Liang Yu has the ability to never forget and has an amazing comprehension ability, as early as when Li Daoyuan first taught the Ziyang Xuanzhen Gong, he had already instilled all the corresponding techniques, swordsmanship and supernatural powers at all levels to Liang Yu, and only when Liang Yu's cultivation made a breakthrough, he could try to perform new moves.

This fire sickle is a kind of supernatural power of the ninth level of Ziyang Xuanzhen Gong, Sun Daomiao also mentioned in front of Liang Yu and others, Xingyi Zizi Gong can manipulate the five elements at will, so that it can be transformed into various forms to defeat the enemy, and when it is displayed, it is divided into five elements and three innate images.

For example, Xin Ruoping turned the earth into a giant python, turned the river into a water dragon, Qin Ruoming turned the flame into an eagle falcon, and Xin Ruoping's trick of congenital dry elephants.

The five elements, namely metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, correspond to the eight trigrams, Xun, Kan, Li, and Kun, all of which are yin;

I saw that although the fur of those giant rats burned when they encountered the fire, even if they were burned by the flames, they did not retreat at all, and continued to rush over with a strange scream!

The giant rats that were burned by the fire were like balls of fire, illuminating the dark village as if it were day for a while, and Liang Yu finally saw clearly through the firelight that the miscellaneous items on both sides were actually bags containing corpses, and those corpses had been gnawed beyond recognition!

After Liang Yu skillfully dodged another round of pounces from the rat swarm, he gritted his teeth and said, "This group of harmful monsters..."

The palms brought out a cloud of wind and orange light, and soon knocked the two dozen giant rats to the ground from mid-air, and those monsters couldn't scream again after being hit, all of them kicked with four paws, and their mouths spurted dirty blood and died!

"Hehe, it's really a capable one... Broke so many of my children at once!"

As the last giant rat was killed, a rickety figure appeared in the middle of the village road, and under the firelight, Liang Yu saw a human face similar to that of a mouse...
