No Return to the Mountain, No Return to the People Chapter 30 Ghosts come to kill ghosts, and people come to kill
Qingyuan Tea House is the only tea house in the entire mountain of no return. There aren't many customers who visit the teahouse on weekdays, but it's not a lot of customers, but they're all very rich, so the business is okay.
After the Taoist Master Langshang entered the Qingzi box, it didn't take long for him to come out. came out with him, as well as Ma Guan Qi Ren Jingping, and the fat man Liu Ren Jingqiu.
The two sides were smiling and parting, and it seemed that things should be discussed well.
Outside the tea house, there are three or five tea houses, but almost all of them are empty, except in the corner, a Taoist dressed in a gossip robe and wearing a scarf on his head is holding a crude porcelain pot and pondering alone. It can be seen that the rank of the tea bought by Taoists will not be as high as that.
The Taoist person's somewhat exaggerated outfit made the Taoist Master Langshang, who had just gone out, inevitably take a few more looks. When I saw that the gossip Taoist was next to him, he was leaning against the wall with a flag on it, and the book was written: "The world is half an immortal, and the gods in the world are reckoning"; in the corner of the coffee table, there was a bamboo stick holder with very bright sand; the Taoist master Langshang smiled slightly, and he didn't care.
This kind of person likes to go to the places where the rich go in and out, looking for objects that can be fooled.
The Taoist first saw Ren Jingqiu, who was fat-headed, big-eared, and brightly dressed, and bowed slightly, as if he wanted to step forward to greet him, but when he found that beside Ren Jingqiu, there was a man in Taoist attire, staring at him, so he dispelled the idea of soliciting business and sat down instantly.
In order to avoid extraneous branches, Ma Guan Qi and the fat man Liuduo put on a carriage in the tea house and galloped straight in the direction of Si'an Village.
~~~~
Shanghe Village is the largest village in the whole mountain of no return, and it is located in the middle of the territory, so the people of the surrounding ten miles and eight townships usually come to Si'an Village to catch up with the barter.
Ren Qiang's father and son, at this time, happened to be on the road to the Zhaimen, and each picked up two large bundles of beast fur.
The father and son came on foot, taking a shortcut path, so they didn't meet Ma Guiqi who drove back to the village from the main road.
Ren Pingsheng, who has been able to use the "Heavenly Fury" and "Heavenly Hatred" two sword moves, has learned some new sword moves, and this time after selling the fur, he will go to the Xiling Cave to continue to find the white ape to feed the sword.
There was another shortcut to Xiling, and there was no need to go through Shanghe Village. But this time, in addition to helping his father pick out some goods, and more importantly, after selling the fur, Ren Qiang also had to find Yuan Da Hammer, the only blacksmith in the village, and ask him to help imitate an iron sword, which should be exactly the same as the one used by Ren Pingsheng.
Yuan Da Hammer is also the only blacksmith on the entire Mountain of No Return.
Many people in the mountains have a long life, but very few people have seen strange people who live long and will not grow old; the only one is the blacksmith Yuan Da Hammer.
According to an old man, when he was a teenager, he saw Yuan Da Hammer striking iron here, and now he is over 80 years old, Yuan Da Hammer is still striking iron, and his face and posture have not changed.
In the entire territory, there are only two well-known figures, one is Langshang Taoist Master, and the other is Yuan Dazhui.
Seeing that the gate of Shanghezhai was in sight, the hunter father and son unloaded the goods on their shoulders, because the road was no longer passable. On the road outside the gate, there were several circles of people densely packed. At the turn of Tatsumi, it was the time when the villagers rushed to gather the most dense flow of people, and passers-by kept surrounding to see the excitement, blocking the entire avenue.
In the midst of the crowd, the sound of women's wails came intermittently.
Ren Pingsheng has always had an inexplicable resistance to the hustle, because in the daily life of Si'anzhai, most of the hustle and bustle are almost the bleak memories of his father and son.
The two waited outside the crowd and waited for the crowd to disperse before entering.
In the hoarse wail of the woman, she unconsciously repeated the words: "How can this be, how can it be like this......"
A man's voice seemed to be reasoning with others, but the words that bordered on pleading were disturbed by the noise of the crowd and did not know what to say.
A few menacing shouts and scoldings were clear in the ears.
"This child of yours was originally taken away by the evil spirit, do you understand? The mind and body have already been hollowed out; a few days ago, the Heavenly Daoist Master easily cured the evil spirits and saved your family. ”
"Don't block the gate of the village, quickly push the car away, otherwise it will be our turn to do it in Xiangxingtang, and you know the consequences." ”
......
Under the disturbance, the impenetrable crowd finally dispersed, making way for the middle way.
A board truck on the road, and a girl about twelve or thirteen years old was lying on the board truck. The girl's eyes were closed, and she did not know whether she was alive or dead, and her bare face, hands and feet, were pale and blue.
The woman next to the cart must have cried to the point of exhaustion and was paralyzed like mud, and it seemed to be the girl's mother.
A middle-aged man with a sad face silently helped the woman who could no longer stand still and let her sit next to the girl on the cart. Then he pulled the cart with great difficulty, slowly moving out of the crowd.
Outside the gate, the three big and three thick Xiangxingtang Fucha, all with their hands on their chests, watched the family of three slowly leave with cold eyes.
The man lowered his head to pull the cart, and as soon as he walked out of the crowd, he felt his head and face hit a person - this person was not big, but his bones hurt his head and face.
When the man looked up, he saw a boy about the same age as his daughter, standing upright in front of him. Behind the boy's shoulder, there was a dirty rod shaped like a spindle. It was Ren Pingsheng who carried an iron sword on his back.
Ren Pingsheng glanced at the girl on the cart, and with his current keen perception, he could see that the girl still had a faint breath.
This was not his business, so he was not interested, picked up the fur, bypassed the board car, and walked straight to the gate of the village.
Ren Qiang's burden was still in the middle of the road, and the cart could not pass, so he had to stop again. Anyway, the man pulling the cart looked dazed, and he didn't know where to pull the child.
The hunter walked over empty-handed, only nodding slightly to the man pulling the cart, and walked straight to the side of the cart.
Without saying a word, he stretched out his right hand and gently touched the wrist, neck and forehead of the girl in the car.
The middle-aged woman sitting on the other side of the cart, having stopped crying, looked at this strange hunter. In those tearful eyes, a bright light suddenly flashed.
"Big brother, you have a way to save my child, right? Please!" the woman pounced, grabbed the hunter's right hand tightly, and refused to let go.
"You can do whatever you want, as long as we have it...... If you don't have it, we'll find it for you. ”
The hunter finally stopped moving, raised his head, looked at the woman and said, "I can save her, but in the future, don't believe in immortals and ghosts." Children are not your sacrifice to please the gods. ”
Ren Pingsheng, who was about to carry the burden into the walled gate, also heard the man's words, seemed to feel something, and stopped. He took off his burden from his shoulders and waited by the gate.
At this moment, the man pulling the cart had already put down the handlebars, and was just overjoyed at the sight of hope, when he suddenly heard the second half of the hunter's words, as if he had heard some great rebellious words, and his face was full of fear.
Women have shut up. She was not afraid to pay the price, but she was afraid of the few words that the hunter had just said.
The people who were watching the excitement just now had already dispersed halfway, but this will hula and gather all at once, only giving way to the side of the walled gate.
Because at the gate of the village, three men in strong suits had already walked over, each with a stainless steel knife, which made everyone's eyes dizzy, and the chaotic crowd retreated bustlingly.
Ren Pingsheng is very familiar with the three endowments, because every time he goes to Shanghe Village to sell goods, he has to pay them a safe endowment.
The one who walked in the middle was called Scar, and on his bare arm, there was a scar turning outward, which was very terrifying. The one on the left is called a beard, and his face really has two mustaches, and at first glance he looks brave and resourceful. The other is expressionless, likes to squint at people, and calls himself Yin San.
What makes people retreat is not actually the knife in the hands of the three people, but the identity of the three people - "Xiangxingtang" Fucha.
"Ping'an Fu" is not levied by the government, there is no government in this world, but there is "Xiangxingtang" in Shanghe Village.
Scar, who was walking in front, held the Pu knife in his hand upside down, patted his chest rhythmically and said, "This girl was taken away by the evil spirit." It was not easy for the Taoist master to exorcise the evil spirits, so as not to bring disaster to the world. You're going to get into trouble and take people's lives?"
The hunter couldn't ignore the few simple knives, so he turned around and said to the scar: "Since the Taoist master has expelled the evil spirits, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds for me to revive the people." ”
Scar's eyes glared and said: "If you can save it, do you think the Taoist master doesn't want to save it?" This girl is born too negative, and if you save it, you will eventually become a skin that provokes evil spirits. ”
The hunter smiled and said lightly: "Then the evil will drive away the evil spirit, and the ghost will kill the ghost." If anyone wants to get in the way of me saving people, they might as well kill people. ”
Such a sentence, coming out of the mouth of a hunter with a simple face, actually has no strength.
There was a sigh of embarrassment around him, and a deafening laughter rang out. The three Fucha were all laughing, and their tears were almost laughing.
In the midst of wild laughter, the three of them had slowly fanned out, blocking the hunter's path. The person who dares to talk to the Xiangxingtang Fucha like this has not returned to the mountain, so the three Fucha will not allow such a person to appear.
Ren Pingsheng has already come to the hunter's side. A teenager is not easy to attract the attention of Fucha.
"I'm going to save this girl, can you handle anything else?" said the hunter slowly.
"Ghosts come to kill ghosts, people come to kill people, I know. The young man replied lightly, as if he was talking about a very ordinary thing.
The three Fucha stopped laughing, and they all looked at the father and son with strange eyes. The boy is not worth their fear, and if the hunter is desperate, they will not be afraid. It's just that hunters hunt birds and animals all year round, and there will be some troublesome means.
But this hunter, who could at least cause some trouble, actually handed over the fatal matter to this thin young man, and let go of the cruel words that could not be turned around. That's weird.
The hunter had already turned to the cart and didn't look at the three Fucha again.
No one has ever seen Ren Qiang's method of saving people. I saw him caress the top of the girl's head with his palm, and then his eyes were slightly closed, motionless, as if no one was around.
But this posture of caressing the top of his head seems to be very laborious and exhausting, and after a while, beads of sweat have oozed from Ren Qiang's face, and the clothes behind him are getting wet.
Although it is the height of summer, and the sunrise is late, it is still early in the morning. The sunlight is slightly warm, and there is a cool breeze, and it stands to reason that it is impossible for a hunter who stands still to sweat.
The three Fucha saw his method of saving people, and they breathed a sigh of relief - even if his own Taoist master had the ability to penetrate the sky, it was impossible to save people in this way.
So they didn't rush to get started, and they looked at the joke first. The person who let the head come out was slapped in the face first, and then killed, which is more justifiable.
Bursts of water vapor were already coming out of the hunter's head, but the girl's eyes were still closed and her breath was faint.
"I said, "Whoever eats, that's fate." Yin San, who had never spoken, sneered, "Hunters should make money by selling furs and beasts, and it's not like a scholar to cheat a doctor in the rivers and lakes." Besides, I'll tell you the truth, we've been to this girl's home, and there's nothing to deceive you. ”
Bazihu said with a lewd smile on his face: "It's not good, this person has been beaten for a year, and seeing that the woman is in a hurry, he thought it was easy to deceive, so he moved his lust." The woman, though she didn't have any appearance, had a concave and protruding body, and she pinched her hips so that water could flow out. ”
There are people from Xiangxingtang taking the lead, and the villagers who are watching the excitement around are all enthusiastic. All kinds of meaty words, each showing their powers.
......
The women on the cart and the man pulling the cart couldn't stand the rumors of everyone, and they couldn't help but look suspicious.
It is good for a dead horse to be a live horse doctor, but if a dead horse is not healed, and the living people have to suffer, it is unbearable.
The man began to move, and he was about to stop it.
The hunter remained motionless, and though he stood, it seemed as if he were asleep, but the sweat that kept pouring out was like rain at this time.
The woman on the cart also began to feel uneasy, and she was about to wake up the hunter in front of her, who did not know what she was doing to her daughter.
But the man pulling the cart couldn't move, and the woman in the car suddenly felt that she couldn't move.
The two were not in the same direction, but both saw a rusty iron sword at the same time, and they didn't know where it was pointing. What they could feel was that as long as they moved, the iron sword could pierce their bodies.
The two members of the family were stunned, and then they realized that the hilt of the iron sword was in the hands of a teenager.
The atmosphere suddenly became stiff.
"Look at the child's hand. I don't know who shouted such a sentence in the crowd.
"Oh, look at those little feet!"
Her face changed. What kind of spell is this?"
With the sound of disturbance, people saw the girl's hands and feet, and the blue color on her face began to slowly fade. Although the complexion was still pale, it gradually became angry.
The hunter's hand finally left the top of the girl's head. He breathed a long sigh of relief, opened his eyes, took a few quiet breaths, and suddenly slapped his palm, and his palm flicked on the girl's top door.
"Wow," the girl on the cart burst into tears. When she opened her eyes, she suddenly saw all the unfamiliar faces around her, and the girl panicked, babbling and screaming, and dancing.
"It's really evil!"
"Well, it's saved, it's also wasted......"
The woman next to the cart seemed to be a natural tear jar, and her face suddenly became turbulent, and she held the girl tightly in her arms. Sobbing and muttering comforting words.
The girl calmed down a little, but she still drilled into the woman's arms in fear, shouting as she drilled: "Mother, don't let that fairy come to the house." The immortals are too terrifying, and those immortal disciples are so terrifying......"
The fairy in the girl's mouth, people from all over the country, all know who it is. What the girl said was terrible, in fact, everyone knows what it is.
The Taoist master of Xiangxing Hall has the ability to sacrifice to the wind and pray for rain, draw talismans to drive away ghosts, and hold spells to kill.
Therefore, in the whole territory, all the villages worshipped him like a god.
However, whenever a village invites the Taoist master of Langshang to pray for blessings and eliminate disasters, and to drive away evil spirits and suppress ghosts, the Taoist master can designate the people in the village to live in at will, and designate a woman to sleep.
If the Taoist master takes a fancy to the daughter of the head of the family, the daughter will serve the wife, and if the wife and concubine of the head of the family are in the favor, the wife and concubine will serve the wife.
However, if the head of the family does not follow this example, evil spirits will be born in the future, and at the least, the livestock will be uneasy, and at the worst, the family members will suddenly fall ill and die.
Recently, "demons and evils" have been rampant, and strange things have happened one after another, so the schedule of the Taoist master in Langshang is very full, and the rituals of each village and village are overwhelmed. As for this girl, she must have recently been appointed to serve the aisle.
Sometimes, when the Taoist master rises by chance, he will also reward the fortunate woman to the disciples who accompany him.
After a short rest, the hunter calmed down, and then said to the girl's parents, "The child has fainted because he has been injured continuously, and he has been so frightened that he has fainted. And she herself is weak, and in her heart, she is afraid that she will wake up. So when I go back, in addition to taking medicine to recover, I am afraid that I want you to be more comforted and accompanied. Only by calming down your mind can you recover as before. ”
That being said, if you can really recover as before, then it is really a fairy favor.
"What can I do then......" The man pulling the cart was at a loss, repeating the phrase repeatedly.
"You can tell your child that from today onwards, there will be no more Xiangxingtang in the world, and there will be no more Taoist Langshang. The hunter said slowly, turning to look at the three stunned Fucha.
The sword that has been hidden for hundreds of years, since it has been unsheathed, will always drink blood.
