Chapter 5
Money can make ghosts grind, this is the most useful thing to use whether it is a mortal or a cultivator, the man didn't say a word, stretched out his hand to take the vajra talisman, and made a color to the person next to him: "Senior brother, call Senior Brother Mingcheng, this Taoist friend will wait for a while." ”
After waiting for half a pillar of incense, the person came, Ming Cheng guessed that the person was Zong You when he heard the description of his junior brother's face, and saw the same door guarding the mountain gate standing with his arms proud, and he understood that the two of them looked down on Zong You. "Senior, the sect is very big, and the mountain peak where I am located is slightly off, so I have kept you waiting for a long time."
The man greeted Ming Cheng perfunctorily, and said sarcastically: "Senior brother, there are some, they are almost to another mountain." ”
Ming Cheng had long been accustomed to the attitude of these juniors and disciples, and he ignored them and hurriedly welcomed Zongyou in.
"Why did the seniors come over so quickly?"
"There's something I want you to help with. ”
"Senior, please speak. ”
"Do you know how to make a man with a broken arm grow a new arm?"
Mingcheng said apologetically: "I really don't know about this, by the way, the family teacher may be clear." ”
As on the previous road, Zongyou had many doubts waiting for Ming Cheng to answer, and the two of them came down to the peak where Ming Cheng was located. What catches your eye is a few rows of bamboo buildings, that is, the previous inns are much more magnificent than this. "Let the seniors laugh, our lineage, the people are thin, and the family teacher is also indifferent, not as good as other peaks. Wait a minute, senior, I'll report it. ”
Originally, he was going to visit, but he didn't expect the host to greet him personally, and soon Zong You saw an old man wearing a brown Taoist robe and holding a dust whisk coming over, looking up and down a few times, but there was really a bit of fairy wind and bones. The old man just bowed his hand slightly and said: "Fang Cai Chengming has already told me about the Taoist friends, the poor Dao knows the three methods, one: if it is the realm of beheading the corpse, it can be regenerated by flesh and blood, but I have not heard of anyone in this realm for hundreds of years, two: It is rumored that Jiuhua Mountain has a fruit called Shatang, but Jiuhua Mountain does not know where the poor road is, three: the big relics in the Buddha Pavilion of the Great Zen Temple. Tianji Pavilion may have news of Jiuhua Mountain for sale. As for the Taoist friends of the Great Zen Temple, there is no need to go, and the relics left by the Nirvana of several True Buddhas in the corpse realm are naturally not available to outsiders. Since the matter has been reached, please put it if the poor road is not well entertained. ”
Zong You was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses and said, "Thank you for telling me, then don't bother much." ”
Ming Cheng didn't know why: "Master?"
"Mingcheng, you send it to Sect Daoyou. ”
I don't know why the master suddenly made this decision, but the master has always been very good to himself, and Ming Cheng is unwilling to disobey the master's orders: "This... Yes, master. ”
On the way back, the two were silent, Zong You was thinking about the three methods, and Ming Cheng was because the master suddenly drove people out and didn't know how to speak. Coming to the mountain gate, Ming Cheng took a deep breath and said, "Senior, I'm sorry, family teacher.. The tutor has an eccentric personality. ”
Zong You smiled and waved his sleeves: "It's okay, it's too late for me to thank you, how can I blame it, then there will be a period later." ”
"Take care, senior!"
In the bamboo building of Xiaoqufeng: "Master, didn't you say that you would persuade the seniors of the sect to join the sect, how!!"
"If it is as you said, the teacher is naturally willing to persuade this person to stay, you know that the teacher is different from ordinary people, and there are a few traces of aura infused in the body back then, but as soon as I see this person, the aura is about to come out and it is difficult to calm down, either this person is more than two realms higher than me, or he has practiced some extremely peculiar exercises, these two things, we are a small sect can not be blessed. ”
Wang Xiyu was overjoyed when he saw the person pushing the door in, and said, "Uncle Zong, you're back." ”
Judging from Bai Xiyu's expression, even if she believes that she will not abandon her, she will inevitably be a little worried in her heart. Zong You reached out and touched her head: "I'm back." ”
After changing her clothes and washing cleanly, Bai Xiyu is young but has inherited her mother's appearance, and she can already see that she is a beautiful embryo, but unfortunately she has no arms. "I asked Xiao Er to cook some food and bring it over. Rest at the inn today. ”
In the early morning of the next day, the two sat downstairs eating breakfast and discussing the itinerary, Zong You had already told Bai Xiyu about the three methods mentioned by Master Mingcheng yesterday, and heard that he could be reborn with a broken arm, Bai Xiyu was naturally excited, but each one was extremely difficult to do.
"Have you heard about Henghai City?"
"I'm afraid it's an exaggeration with false rumors, right? Thousands of flying swords from a hundred miles away? Song Chenguang, the sword god of the world, can't do it!"
"It can be said that there is a nose and eyes, it seems that the reason is to seek revenge, and the death of the city lord is extremely miserable!"
"It's definitely not done alone, the Qiankun Sect has already issued a reward, ten million silver, and a thousand spirit stones. ”
Passerby C sat in: "You two don't mind sharing a table, what the two of you said just now, can you tell the younger brother as well." The money for this meal is mine. ”
When Zong You heard the conversation at the next table, he didn't think so, as if it wasn't what he did, but Bai Xiyu heard that a reward had been issued for Zong You, and he looked worried.
"Don't worry, it's okay. Seeing Bai Xiyu's melancholy, Zong You soothed.
"There is one more thing, the Good God Sect has issued a mission, and the reward is five thousand spirit stones. ”
"It's Plains City near us, I heard that it's haunted, I think there's a demon at work. ”
"Why don't you ask someone from the Buddhist family to exorcise demons?"
"Harm, it's not that Zhen Yuanzi accidentally killed the old monk of Sumeru in the Great Zen Temple. ”
"I also know this, and now the two realms of Buddhism are in trouble. However, both sides are top forces, and they should not be able to fight. ”
"Three, which direction is the Plains City?" It was Zong You who opened his mouth to ask, and he had already given up the two methods of the Corpse Killing Realm and the Buddha Gate Treasure, so he could only hope for the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, and if he wanted to buy the news, he needed spirit stones. Since there are so many spirit stones in the mission issued by this Good God Sect, he wants to try his luck in Plains City.
In the end, it was Zong You who paid for the food for the three people from the rivers and lakes, and flew all the way to Pingyuan City with Bai Xiyu. Many people had gathered at the gates of the city, clamoring to enter the city. A graceful man in white and brocade said loudly: "Everyone, this mission is the Good God Sect entrusted by my Mingyuan Sect, this mission is a little dangerous, everyone go to the side to sign the life and death certificate first, and you can ask the disciples of this sect at will." Okay, junior brother, open the city gate and let it go. ”
"Yes, senior brother!"
Seeing Zong You with the armless girl, Ming Yuanzong looked at it with some curiosity, but there are many weirdos in the world, and they can't be nosy.
"My name is Zong You, and this is Bai Xiyu, um... I can't write. Hearing this, Bai Xiyu almost couldn't help laughing.
The man was not surprised: "Then draw a bet." ”
Everyone rushed in, and the streets were almost empty, and occasionally a few figures were seen, all of them were older people in mourning clothes. There were already people from the Mingyuan Sect next to him who began to explain the ins and outs: "The matter started five years ago, at first it was just that the children in the city began to disappear individually, but gradually the number increased, the sect ordered us to come down to investigate, but there were no clues, until two years ago, there were no children in the city, and then the missing were teenagers and middle-aged." Today, there are almost only a few lonely old people left in the city, and there are about 60,000 missing. ”
Someone couldn't help but gasp after hearing this: "Hiss"
Someone else asked, "Didn't anyone in the city flee from the city to take refuge?"
The people of Mingyuan Sect replied: "Yes! It's just that if you move out of the city, then no matter how old or young, your family will die, and we have also arranged for people to take care of you, and at first it will be fine, but after a long time, people will die." or poisoning or violent death.
"What strange things happened five years ago?"
"There was a plague that lasted for more than a month, and nothing strange about anything else. Okay guys, that's all we know, if you want to know more details, you can ask anyone in the city at will, the sect has already notified the city. ”
The crowd scattered one after another to investigate. Zong You took Bai Xiyu to an inn, there were no guests in the hall, and there was no shopkeeper, only an old shopkeeper sitting in front of the cabinet in a daze.
After a casual greeting, Zong You opened his mouth and asked, "Shopkeeper, how many people died in that plague back then?"
"A lot of people have died, and I think they are unwilling to be lonely and ask for their lives, hey. ”
Looking at the shopkeeper, he was also wearing mourning clothes: "The shopkeeper's family?"
The shopkeeper choked up and said, "My son and daughter-in-law also disappeared some time ago, and I can't think of it." What kind of iniquity has been created?"
"I heard that there are still some alive in the city?"
"There are some, but they are not locals, they have all been here in the past five years, and if they didn't want to make a living, they would have run away a long time ago. ”
"Then this should be related to five years ago, can the shopkeeper explain it in detail?"
The shopkeeper closed his eyes for a long time, and began to recall: "On that day, someone in the city suddenly began to have a fever and cough, and more and more people began to get sick, but some of the epidemic was out of control, and the city lord ordered people to close the city. ”
"Who is this Yang Holy Hand?"
"He is the most bodhisattva-hearted person in this plain city, not to mention that his medical skills can bring people back to life, but he is also a wonderful hand to rejuvenate. He never took money for medical treatment in poor families. ”
"What about the others?"
"Dead... Died in that plague. ”
"Then he still has his family?"
"No... No, all three members of Yang Shengshou's family died. ”
-------------------------------------
Outside the inn. "This shopkeeper flickered just now, there must be some inside information, and the problem seems to be on this Yang Shengshou. ”
Bai Xiyu asked, "But the person is dead, how to investigate?"
"The hospital has not been demolished, let's go and see it first. ”
When the two of them came to the Chunlai Medical Center, there were already people, and when they saw Zong You and the two coming, several people looked at them indifferently, and then they were busy with their own affairs again, and they all wanted to swallow the reward alone, it seemed that they couldn't ask any news from their mouths. The two looked at the medical hall, the courtyard was crawling with vines, the doors and windows had long been broken, the corners of the walls were covered with thick cobwebs, the gloomy house looked a little eerie, and there was a house in the backyard with fallen spirit tablets. Zong You picked up a piece and handed it to Bai Xiyu: "What is written on it?"
"Yang Chun's position. ”
"Where's this one?"
"Yang Yun's position. ”
"It seems that someone has set up a spirit card for the Yang family's father and son, who will it be?"
