Chapter Seventy-One: The Stink
Cold sweat was dripping from the forehead of the township chief, and he stroked his uncontrollable undulating chest and said nervously, "I didn't expect it to be a monster." ”
"Fortunately, it was the township chief who was wise and recognized the identity of the monster in one fell swoop, otherwise we would all have been wronged. Meng Zhaoxing arched his hand and said complimentally.
The township chief smiled bitterly and said sadly, "Do you think this monster will come to take revenge on us? ”
"Don't worry about the township chief, this monster is here to find me, as long as I leave here, the monster will naturally follow, and it won't embarrass the township chief. Chen Jingzhi said.
"What you said is true?" said the township chief, his eyes widened, and he jumped up and asked loudly.
"Of course. Chen Jingzhi said affirmatively.
"Then you guys go quickly, go quickly, and don't let the monsters find us. The township lord was in a hurry, and hurriedly wanted to drive people away, and even pushed them forward, "As soon as you get out of the township, go east, where is Guangcheng Mansion, you go quickly, the old man begs you." ”
Chen Jingzhi said with a smile, "Thank you Township Chief, but after all, it will take time to walk, and we will go to Guangcheng Mansion as soon as possible." ”
"You go quickly, I'll find someone to drive you in an ox cart, hurry up." The township chief didn't dare to stay any longer, who knew when the female monster would come to the door, and immediately called two or three people to drive them out of the township in ox carts.
In this way, Meng Zhaoxing didn't have to walk hard, and several villagers sent several villagers one after another according to the instructions of the township mayor, for fear that Chen Jingzhi and them would stay in their township and attract female monsters. At the same time, people also hurried to the county seat and the city to deliver a letter to beware of female monsters.
In the evening, before the sun set, before the curfew, Chen Jing and his party had already entered Guangcheng Mansion. Quang Seng Province is densely populated, the streets are full of traffic, and even when the curfew is approaching, there are various vendors hawking. Chen Jingzhi found an inn, showed all kinds of documents, and successfully booked four rooms.
Not long after, Meng Chengguang came over crying, babbling and grabbing Chen Jingzhi's sleeve and pointing to his mouth.
Chen Jingyi slapped it away and said, "Self-inflicted, don't live." ”
Meng Zhaoxing stepped forward and saluted deeply, "Daoist Chen, I really want to worship Daoist as a teacher, and there is no lie." Now one is to ask the Taoist chief to be a teacher, and the other is to ask the Taoist chief to cure his brother and remove the spell. ”
Chen Jingzhi looked at Meng Zhaoxing and said, "You have done me a few small favors today, otherwise I really won't be able to get rid of Qingnu in a short time." It's okay, for your sake, I'll remove the spells on him. ”
"Little Er, last jar of spirits. As he spoke, he shouted to the shopkeeper under the guest room.
The shopkeeper responded loudly, and after a while, he sent a jar of spirits, and the aroma of the wine was strong. Chen Jingzhi said to Meng Chengguang, "I've drunk it." ”
"Huh?" Meng Chengguang pointed at himself, with a bitter face.
"My brother can't drink. Meng Zhaoxing hurriedly said, "I'm afraid that the Dao Chief's jar of wine will cost him his life." ”
"There is a worm in his stomach, the most powerful thing is to spit out the stench, although it will not harm people's lives, but this worm will continue to grow, and eventually it will grow from the stomach to the mouth, and then countless worms will crawl out of the innermost, and that will kill him. However, this insect will die when it encounters wine, and if you drink this jar of strong wine, the insect will naturally die. ”
"Ahh
Meng Zhaoxing was stunned for a moment, and Chen Jingzhi said, "You have to take a good look at him, after drinking, the insects will either spit out or pull it out, and it will also stink." ”
Meng Zhaoxing dared to delay, and hurriedly handed over the shopkeeper a dozen hot water, as well as a few jars of wine, and lit the fragrance. About half an hour later, a smoky smell came from the thatched pit of the inn, which was disgusting, and for a moment someone scolded in the middle of the battle. The shopkeeper of the inn mobilized the second shopkeeper of the inn to find the source of the smell.
It's just that in the end, the source of the smell was not found, and a shopkeeper fainted from the smell. At present, there are many guests of the inn who want to return their money and change the store.
Yang Tingqing covered his nose and almost vomited to find Chen Jingzhi, "Senior brother, what's going on?"
Chen Jingzhi smiled and said, "It's just right, I'll pass on a closed-breath skill to you, see if you can learn it." ”
"Senior brother, is there another monster?" Yang Tingqing didn't have the heart to joke at this time, and asked seriously.
"No, you don't have to. Chen Jingzhi glanced at him, "If you don't learn, then go back and rest." After saying that, he jumped to the top of the building, and then cast a spell, and in a short time the stench gradually dissipated.
There was a commotion in the inn, and even invited officials and others to come and check it out. In the middle of the night, the stench gradually disappeared, but the inn had been abandoned and the owner wanted to cry without tears.
The next day, the innkeeper apologized to the guests with a sad face, and Chen Jingzhi sat at the table and heard the people next door discussing.
"Damn, what stinks yesterday, the old shit pits don't stink that much. ”
"I can't even eat now. ”
"I heard that I have recruited evil spirits, and I don't know what kind of ghost it is, but I dare to be so bold in Guangcheng Mansion. ”
"Is it a-eating ghost passing by, or a stinky rat cultivating in a pit?" the man laughed as soon as he said it.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have already gone to the Dao Palace to report the case, and the immortals of the Dao Palace will come to check on me today, rest assured, I will definitely give you an explanation. The innkeeper shouted at the top of his voice, "I'll give you a nine-percent discount on what you want to eat this morning." ”
"Who the fuck wants to eat your stinky rice? Who doesn't know that you've been here and vomited a bunch of old shit in your store, maybe it's in the food. The guests sneered when they heard the nine-fold, the money for the guest room refused to be returned, and it was not far from closing.
"Now that I think about it, Lao Tzu is sick to his stomach, and he still eats your mother's Wang Ba rice?" several guests went out angrily and shouted, "See you in the yamen today." ”
The scolding sound in the store made people's heads swell, Meng Chengguang pulled the rice and lowered his head deeply, and he couldn't even see his face. Meng Zhaoxing was at ease and unmoved. And Yang Tingqing didn't know the reason for the matter, he was hungry at this time, although he felt sick to his stomach, but after all, food should not be wasted at will.
"Brother Xiao Meng, why do you have such an expression?" Yang Tingqing put down the dishes and chopsticks, frowned and said, "Eat slowly, don't worry." ”
"Eat without sleeping. Chen Jingzhi glanced at him and said coldly, "Eat your meal, don't be troublesome." ”
After breakfast, Chen Jingzhi looked at the Meng brothers and said indifferently, "One of you has gradually recovered, and the other has detoxified the poisonous insects in your body, so don't leave it today." ”
"Don't, don't. Meng Chengguang hurriedly put the bowl down, the innermost rice had not yet been swallowed, and said vaguely, "Daochang Chen, let's go together, there are so many demons and monsters along the way, and it is safe for us to follow you, besides, you can't bear to watch our two brothers being bullied by monsters." ”
"Besides, my brother is going to worship you as a teacher. Meng Chengguang swallowed a mouthful of rice and smashed it, "Daochang Chen, the two of us are also going to Miyang County, and so are the two of us, so is there a care." When he spoke, his eyes looked directly at Chen Jingzhi, in fact, the two of them had no money now, and he still wanted to eat.
"Chen Daochang, a chivalrous man, I sincerely want to worship you as a teacher. Meng Zhaoxing said sincerely, "I really hope to be able to be with you." ”
"Little Star is talented and highly qualified, and he will definitely be able to expand your lintel, just so you can teach me too, and I won't have to look for you to make a move when I am bullied in the future." ”
Chen Jingzhi couldn't help laughing, pushed a few silver coins over, and said, "This is ten taels of silver, enough for the two of you to go to Miyang County, you don't have to follow me." ”
Meng Chengguang laughed a few times, and was about to take the silver, Meng Zhaoxing slapped his hand and said coldly, "Chengguang." ”
"Daochang Chen, what I just said is true, and there is absolutely no falsehood. Meng Zhaoxing stood up and bowed.
Chen Jingzhi looked at it carefully, Meng Zhaoxing's qualifications were indeed superior, but it was a pity that he was too closely related to the Heavenly Chosen Palace, and he was unwilling to provoke good or bad. He was resolute, but his tone was sincere, "I have not yet reached the age of weakness, and I don't know the future path, how can I be your teacher?
"The master has always been a teacher, Chen Daochang has both ability and political integrity, I can worship Chen Daochang as a teacher is already a deep blessing, since the Taoist has this concern, then I can wait. Meng Zhaoxing's attitude was also resolute, although he was politely rejected at this time, he had already decided it.
Chen Jingzhi laughed and said, "That's whatever you want." After speaking, he turned to Yang Tingqing, "Senior brother, it's time for you to go and review your homework." Yang Tingqing was stunned for a moment, and immediately got up and followed to the guest room.
Meng Chengguang said disdainfully, "Little Star, how can he pretend to be so good? A hairy boy, looking tall and big, may not even have his hair grown, his attitude is so arrogant, don't beg to worship him as a teacher..."
"Shut up. Meng Zhaoxing said impatiently, "Daochang Chen's martial arts are strong, I sincerely want to worship him as a teacher, don't get involved in the future." ”
"Do you really want to worship him as a teacher?" Meng Chengguang Huo Ran stood up and said in disbelief, "I thought you couldn't get in the way of face, so you wanted to worship him as a teacher." ”
"In the future, you will have more respect for Daochang Chen. Meng Zhaoxing was very helpless in his heart, and breathed a long sigh of relief, "Don't you want to find immortals and ask? I think Daochang Chen is the person you are looking for." ”
"What? how is it possible?" Meng Chengguang laughed, "Although he can kill demons and ghosts, I have never seen him use spells, Xiaoxing, you have taken the wrong medicine." I really want to worship the teacher, I also want to worship the Heavenly Maiden and other characters, you listen, the Heavenly Maiden, how domineering, it must be a fairy with vast and boundless mana. ”
"If you can marry a fairy as a wife, that's the beauty of life. Meng Chengguang was already immersed in his own fantasies.
Meng Zhaoxing was unhappy in his heart, and he didn't want to discuss the matter with Meng Chengguang anymore, so he quickly went to the guest room to find Chen Jingzhi.
