Qingyin thought that looking for clues about the living corpse girl in the counties near the left outside of Yuzhou City could really be regarded as looking for a needle in a haystack, because although the living corpse girl was not angry, she also had no ghost, and she still looked like a living person, mixed with ordinary women on the street, where could she be so easy to find, but since Qing Huan thought that this method was the best way to find the living corpse girl now, Qingyin just let him look around like a needle in a haystack, originally thought that since he suspected that the murderer was a medicine picker, he should have looked for it in the counties with the most medicine shops on the street, but he didn't expect Qing Huan to take Qingyin to the first place, but it is Longquan Town, where there is no trace of a pharmacy on the street.

"Hey, you're crazy, there is no medicine shop in Longquan Town at all, people here have to go to the Linzhen Medical Center for treatment when they are sick, which medicine picker will stay here for a long time?"

"But what we're looking for now isn't a person," Qing Huan couldn't help but smile indifferently, "Why do you think there isn't even a medical center in this town?" he asked.

"Then you don't need to ask, didn't you see that the biggest shop on the street is a coffin seller, mortals don't shed tears when they don't see the coffin, who wants to come here to treat the disease and buy medicine, it's too late to hide,"

"So, although the coffin shop makes money, but there are a few mortals who are willing to make money, and those who have to rely on this kind of trading for a living must also burn incense and worship the Buddha every day to accumulate yin virtue for themselves, for fear of losing their longevity, but there is no trace of sandalwood smell in this coffin shop, it can be seen that the shopkeeper has never burned a stick of incense in the shop, and the plaque of this shop is hundreds of years old, you see, the decals on the windows of other shops on the street are the most fashionable styles now, but the decals on the windows of this shop are still the style of hundreds of years ago, is the current shopkeeper really like these decals hundreds of years agoHe asked.

"Hmph, even if this coffin shop is opened by a goblin, what does it have to do with us?"

"Princess, the shop is so big, there must be a lot of people, but there is no living anger in the shop, and there is no demonic spirit, do you really think we shouldn't go in and have a look now?" he asked.

......

......

It was past noon, and there were no people in the store who came to buy coffins, there were many guys in the store, but Qing Huan could see at a glance that these guys were all women dressed as men, and the four walls of the coffin shop were hung with portraits of previous shopkeepers, and the current shopkeeper looked no more than forty years old.

Many guys in the store didn't have any living brilliance in their eyes, they just stood there one by one and waited for Qing Huan to load the goods with the carriage parked at the door of the store, Qing Huan naturally didn't care too much about it when he saw this, because the living corpse girl was not a living person in the first place, but because she had not left her body, she couldn't be regarded as a dead corpse completely.

Qing Huan knew that the three souls and six spirits of these women had already been destroyed, and now they were almost gone, so Shang did not easily alarm the shopkeeper in the coffin, but quietly withdrew from the coffin shop with Qingyin, and cast a spell outside the shop and put a handful of Liuding martial fire, burning the coffin shop and those living corpse girls into ashes.

In the firelight, I saw a cloud of black gas rushing out in a panic, and rushed to Longquan Mountain in the west of Longquan Town, Qing Huan and Qingyin chased after them all the way, and suddenly saw the black gas in front of them and escaped into a deep ancient cave in the mountain, and the two followed closely into the cave, and the black gas gradually appeared in the ancient cave, and it was indeed the owner of the medicine picker in the coffin shop.

In order to eliminate evil, Qing Huan has a three-foot water purification sword in his hand that directly threatens the true body of the evil ghost, and the mortal ghost can borrow the corpse, and can really cultivate a bit of evil law, the evil ghost sees that his evil law has nothing to hide under the water purification sword, only the power of parrying and no power to fight back, so he has to open his mouth to beg Qing Huan for mercy, and he keeps saying that he has to defend his evil deeds in every way, Qing Huan because he also wants to get the qi of the blazing cloud poison bead and the nine refining heart poison antidote from the evil ghost, so although the water purification sword in his hand moves fiercely and is close to the door of life, he also does not want to take his life immediately, and when he saw the evil ghost begging for mercy, he immediately put away his hand, and wanted to ask the nine refining heart poison antidote first, but seeing that this evil ghost had hurriedly offered the antidote to heart erosion poison with both hands because of greed for life and fear of death, Qing Huan reached out to take it, but his heart began to have a little interest in this cowardly and harmful ghost, and he was eager to know that since he was so greedy for life and afraid of death, why did he use nine refining heart erosion poison in Longquan Mountain to mutilate a female green snake spirit from the ancient demon clan?

......

......

"That's naturally because the green snake is much more beautiful than mortals," the evil ghost * confessed," The villain's original name was Yinbao, he was a medicine picker in Longquan Mountain, and the villain's mother-in-law was also a famous beauty in ten miles and eight towns, but because of a rich family and evil young seduction, he murdered the villain with the adulterer, and also burned the thatched house at home, destroying the corpse, the villain was unwilling to go to the underworld to reincarnate, and found a intact corpse near Longquan Mountain to borrow the corpse to resurrect the soul, suck the blood of mortals to cultivate the evil law, and wait for the opportunity to take revenge on this pair of adulterers and adulteresses, but when the villain cultivated into a magic demon, the pair of adulterers and adulteresses had already been reincarnated many times, and the villain saw that the back of the adulterer and adulteress had become a couple again, and his heart was extremely angry, must take revenge, the villain worked hard to refine the nine refining heart poison, and opened a coffin shop, because refining the nine refining heart poison must be the villain's body that sucks the blood of mortals for five hundred years, so the villain's body borrowing the corpse has been refined when refining the medicine, and can only be a yin ghost who can move around in the world, so the villain immediately recruited the adulterer who has been reincarnated several times in the name of recruiting a partner to help in the coffin shop, and publicly said to others that because he was infected with a vicious disease, he would soon die, and he would give the coffin shop to him, but in fact, he secretly took away from him, and even crushed his ghost into a thin piece and framed a portrait, and then used the heart poison to turn the back of the evil woman into a living corpse girlto relieve the hatred in his heart," he said.

"That's weird, you only hate your wife alone, but why do you want to kill so many innocent girls* for nothing?" Qing Huan wondered.

"Who made them all look like that evil woman one by one, they deserve to be unlucky,"

"And the portraits of the previous shopkeepers hanging in the coffin shop?"

"It's all ordinary people who deceived and took away in the name of recruiting shopkeepers, crushed into thin pieces like ghosts, framed into portraits,"

"What about the bodies of those men?"

"After ten or eight years, they rotted, skinned, filled with grass, and sold to the prison bosses to replace those who should have been skinned and filled, but spent a lot of gold and silver to buy their lives. ”

(b)

Because he didn't know the truth of the antidote in his hand, Qing Huan hurriedly just used a coarse linen rattan with a spell to tightly trap the silver treasure, and then hurried back to the palace to send the antidote to the witch Niangniang, the maid took the antidote and immediately gave the witch Niangniang to eat, only a moment of work, the nine refining heart poison in the witch's body has gradually dissipated and dissipated, just to be fully sober, at least to be patient for more than seven days.

Several snake maids thanked Qing Huan and Qingyin in the Duyao Palace, and insisted on giving him a thousand taels of gold, Qing Huan immediately turned around and hurriedly came out of the forbidden door of the fairy palace after his kind words, wanting to go back to the Yueyun Inn to save his mother immediately, but Qingyin has always thought in his heart that since the antidote is true, and the seven parts of the Blazing Cloud Poison Bead Qi have been all in hand, then this silver treasure is useless to keep now, so he wants to go back to Longquan Mountain to kill ghosts and demons, and the merit is immeasurable.

Although Qing Huan originally hated that Yinbao very much in his heart, after all, it was his wife who murdered him in the first place, and if he didn't hurt anyone again, he could consider trapping him in the cave until he died.

Although Qingyin thought that Qing Huan's treatment of this silver treasure was simply too merciful and conniving, but the life and death of a mortal evil seemed to have nothing to do with him, so he didn't ask about it anymore, but followed Qing Huan coldly along the way and came back to the Yueyun Inn together, the two of them retreated from the guest room in the inn, and carried the father and queen mother into a carriage to a hidden place under Longquan Mountain, Qing Huan immediately used the power of the Dingguang Bead to gather the seven Blazing Cloud Poison Beads, and transformed them into a complete Blazing Cloud Poison Bead, and then fed this Blazing Cloud Poison Bead to the mouth of the queen mother, because Qing Huan's original foundation was much deeper than Qingyin, so if it is not surprising, the father and the queen mother should wake up at about the same time.

The two immediately hid their father and queen mother in a hidden cave under Longquan Mountain, and then remembered that the medicine collecting demon Yinbao who had been trapped in another cave waiting for the two to be treated, and immediately decided to go and end the matter of Yinbao first, so as to prevent the father and queen mother from being disturbed by someone for no reason during the cave recuperation.

But who would have thought that the two of them would arrive at the entrance of the cave where Yinbao was trapped, they vaguely heard a terrible scream in the cave, and when they hurriedly entered and came to Yinbao, they were shocked to see that he had fallen to the ground with a dark face, Qing Huan immediately leaned over to carefully inspect Yinbao's body, and soon found that there was a pair of jet-black tooth marks on his elbows......

Qingyin thought that poisonous insects were already raging in the mountains and forests, and this silver treasure seemed to be bitten by a poisonous snake that crawled in the cave when he was trapped in the cave and couldn't move, but Qing Huan felt that this pair of jet-black tooth marks always seemed to be a little strange:

"It's a purple pit viper, and its poison is not much different from that of a five-step snake, but it's strange that this snake has been killed by General Teng Snake on Zihua Mountain three hundred years ago, how could it suddenly appear here?"

"Ah, this princess seems to have heard some of this when she was by Concubine Xiang's side, the Purple Flower Clan was exterminated by the Teng Snake General back then, and it is said that it was because the Snake Emperor openly molested Nuwa Niangniang's side on Zihua Mountain, a maid who came to Zihua Mountain to collect medicine, and the maid later ran to the Lingwa Palace on Zhonghuang Mountain to cry, adding oil and vinegar to fan the flames, and then General Teng Snake wiped out the Purple Flower Snake Emperor clan in a fit of anger," Qingyin was helpless, "The maid was also frightened later, but I didn't expect things to turn out like this in the end." ”

"General Teng Snake was indeed a little hasty in this matter, but the Purple Flower Pit Viper clan did not do a lot of evil on Zihua Mountain on weekdays, and General Teng Snake must have been just angry for a while, not as cruel and tyrannical as rumored in the rivers and lakes, and his heart was vicious," he said.

"So, you shouldn't want to chase down that little flower snake that was lucky enough to slip through the net now," Qingyin joked, "After all, although the snake clan has defected to the god Nuwa, we can now be regarded as a rebellion in the pure heaven." ”

"No, it can't escape," Qing Huan sneered.

"Huh, why?"

"This silver treasure has the butterfly incense I secretly planted, the purple snake bites him, the butterfly incense will definitely be contaminated on it, this incense was specially made for you by my brother on the Jade Butterfly Mountain, you can easily smell it in the air, and now, I still bother the princess to help," he said.

"Why, this silver treasure deserves to die, let him be bitten to death by a snake, it is very merciful," Qingyin said angrily.

"But the purple flower snake is too poisonous in its body, and it can't be allowed to do evil in the world,"

"What, do you want to kill it?"

"Not necessarily, the witch lady in the forbidden land of Asgard can always control him,"

"Okay, you want to catch it back and throw it into the furnace for alchemy, don't you?"

"Princess, the witch maiden only uses medicinal herbs for alchemy,"

"Hmph, alchemy medicinal herbs, what about brewing medicinal wine?"

"Princess ......"

......

......

(c)

Although he was reluctant in his heart, under Qing Huan's good words, Qing Yin was still helpless to help, Qing Huan smelled the faint smell of butterfly incense in the air, and traced it all the way to a place that the two of them couldn't think of, that is, the father and queen mother of the two are now hiding and recuperating in the hidden cave, and the one who is waiting for the two in the cave at this time is the person the two of them don't want to see at this time, General Teng Snake, or the head of the Xianhua faction in the Wa Emperor Palace on the Emperor Mountain, Mu Shui and Dust.

Qing Huan knew that he must have come for the Dingguang Pearl, so he immediately took out the Dingguang Bead from his arms and wanted to return it to General Teng Snake on the spot, but as Concubine Xiang said in Tanhua Temple, General Teng Snake was not a good person to talk to, because of the theft of Dingguang Pearl, General Teng Snake immediately punished Qing Huan and Qing Yin to follow him back to Emperor Mountain as a miscellaneous servant for three hundred years.

Because of the concern for the safety of his father and queen mother, Qing Huan reluctantly agreed, but Qingyin didn't say much to oppose his brother's decision, because as long as he waited for his father and queen mother to regain consciousness, it might not be difficult to escape from Emperor Mountain.

The two immediately took their father and mother to follow General Teng Snake back to Emperor Mountain, and in the Wa Emperor Palace, General Teng Snake only allowed the two to call him Mu Shui Chen, which made Qingyin think that the head of the Xianhua faction was a water snake.

But the days on the Emperor's Mountain are really very difficult to pass, the folklore a long, long time ago, no one knows how long, because in the three worlds of heaven, earth and man, even those who like to soar above the nine heavens, bird's eye view of the three thousand prosperous gods and demons in the world, may not all have the honor to see with their own eyes when there was a flood on the earth, how the great god Nuwa made people on the bank of the Santu River, refining stones to make up the sky, how the great god Fuxi killed and fought in the Three Realms, and became the Green Emperor of the East, and then the Yan Emperor and the Yellow Emperor joined forces to fight Jiuli Chiyou, the Yandi tribe, the Yellow Emperor tribe and the Jiuli tribes gradually mergedIn fact, these mortals don't know that they are not the first group of mortals fabricated by the god Nuwa with mud on the banks of the Santu River, because the universe has become a cycle of living and living in the cycle of bad and empty, and before them, the mortals of the giant clan fabricated by Houtu Niangniang with boulders have disappeared for a long, long time in this 3,000 prosperous earth.

Therefore, even for those immortals and demons who are under the age of long live, they can imagine a long, long time ago, at most it was only when the god Nuwa made people and made stones to make up the sky on the bank of Ruoshui, it is said that at that time, the gods, immortals, demons, and demons in the Three Realms still liked to be nostalgic for mortals, because the mortals at that time had never betrayed the god Nuwa, and they gathered in groups on the shores of rivers, lakes and seas, plowing the fields, fishing and hunting, reeling and weaving in every eternal cycle of the four seasons, most of the mortals at that time were simple-minded, and they were not instigated by those demons and monsters to be very treacherous and cunning, insidious and vicious, until one day, The elders and sorcerers of the clan who gradually grasped the dominant position in the human race began to sacrifice to the gods with boys and girls in the shrine, and even made underage girls into ugly sacrifices to the god Nuwa, and the people in the clan mistakenly thought that the god Nuwa was brutal, and began to turn their backs on the gods and gods, and instead went to the Taoist temple to kneel and worship the Jade Emperor of the Three Qing Dynasty and the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and the shrine to worship the god of Nuwa is becoming increasingly deserted and scarce in the world, because since the beginning of the renunciation of the human race, the incense in the Wa Emperor Palace is destined to be sparse, so far, in this ancient and solemn Wa Emperor Palace, there has always been only the head of the Xianhua faction Mu Shui Dust Tribulation for many years dedicated to worship, although there is no trace of incense in the Wa Emperor Palace for many years, but it is still clean and clean every day by his hard work, spotless.

The three meals a day in the Wa Emperor Palace are green vegetables and white rice, and some salty salt is added to the green vegetables boiled in white water, and the white rice is often boiled porridge not like porridge, and the rice is not like rice, and even cats, dogs, birds and birds are difficult to swallow outside the palace.

The origin of the head of the Xianhua faction is now in the mouths of the people in the villages and towns on the left side of the Emperor Mountain, of course, there is no way to investigate it, only the old people in the village still vaguely remember that they had heard some ancient rumors about the Wahuang Palace on the Emperor Mountain when they were young.

Legend has it that the big head of the Wa Emperor Palace is named Mu Shui Chen, who was originally the right protector of the Nuwa god, and was known as the Teng Snake General, and everyone knows that the Nuwa god has been following Bai Xi and Teng Snake for many years, because Bai Xi is a woman and a man, and at that time, the human race is always dominated by women, and everyone in a group only knows their mother but not their father, and they have sex with men and women* For this reason, the god Nuwa asked the two to take heaven and earth as a witness to marry and have children, so as to guide the mortal people to establish a male marriage ceremony for female marriage and reproduction, and a couple who are combined together because of marriage and childbirth will quickly form a huge family, and countless families who have become in-laws because of marriage and marriage have begun to gradually become a huge clan, and a patriarch and several elders elected by countless huge clans have established an ancestral hall in the clan, and a complete set of patriarchal rituals will be established, graduallyWhen this vast area gradually began to have prosperous state capitals and counties, it became a state, and the supreme in the state became an emperor in the world, and each emperor worked hard all his life to increase the population of the state under his rule, so the god Nuwa no longer had to worry about the extinction of the human race created by himself because of any natural and man-made disasters.

But it is said that the relationship between this Teng Snake General and his wife Bai Xi was not very close, after all, at the beginning of Nuwa's great god to create people, the mortal race has always pursued the ancient rules of female respect, and there has never been a male marriage and female marriage in the ethnic group. After the merger, there is no intersection, the child born only knows his mother and does not know his father, the status of men in the group is always very low, except for hunting in the mountains and forests, there is nothing good, and often a few days can not hunt a beast, the life of the people in the group can only rely on women to go to the mountains to harvest wild vegetables and fruits and go down to the river to fish and catch shrimp to maintain, so at least at that time, Bai Xi as a protector goddess in front of her husband is still very honorable and proud, although the female respect for such mortal rules has never been in the gods......

General Teng Snake because he was fortunate to get the Chaos True Yuan from the great god Nuwa, since his mana is boundless, and the vast immortal Buddha does not dare to slack off, but because he has been closed in the Wahuang Palace on the Emperor Mountain for many years, so for hundreds of years, there is a Xianhua faction on the Emperor Mountain, the name of the immortal cultivation sect, but I have never seen a disciple come to the mountain to apprentice, of course, this is also the most fundamental reason why Qinghuan and Qingyin have a very bad time on the Emperor Mountain, because no other disciples come to apprentice, the two of them now have to take care of all the cleaning chores on the Emperor Mountain every day, although Qingyin has been a priest and priest in the pure sky, but in the Qingyu Pavilion, he has never been a rough worker, so under the negative anger, he set up a sign outside the mountain gate of the Xianhua Mountain faction with the head of the water and dust on his back, but anyone who is willing to come to the Xianhua faction to apprentice can get three Jiuyang elixirs, and these elixirs are also the rewards that Qinghuan got from the Water Moon Hall in the pure sky, and took the reward of Xiangjun to give favors, Qingyin will never feel distressed again.

(iv)

However, what Qingyin never expected was that the first person to come to the Emperor Mountain to apprentice because of the greed for three Jiuyang elixirs turned out to be a family of immortal cultivators who had been hidden for many years under Taihua Mountain, the eldest young master of the Yunshui family, Yun Shui Chenyi, the head of the Mu Shui Dust Tribulation was obviously very puzzled by the selfish motives of the eldest young master of the Yunshui family to come to his disciple to apprentice, because the Yunshui family was originally after the Gaoyang family among the six ancient witch clans, and the Gaoyang family was the mother family of the Western White Emperor Shaohao, so after the Yellow Emperor fought Chi You, because the Gaoyang family lost troops in this battle to help the Yellow Emperor, Shaohao was grateful for the mother's dedication, Specially given to the patriarch of the Gaoyang clan Yunshui Xuanming a refining Qi Dan furnace, this Dan furnace can be dispersed between heaven and earth Lingqi refining into a golden pill to take, and the method of cultivating the way of the outer Dan into immortals, the Yunshui family has become a hidden immortal family under Taihua Mountain, and the immortal cultivation family in the world can compete with the Huashui family under Tianzhu Mountain, so General Teng Snake thought that Yun Shui Chenyi would never come to the Emperor Mountain to apprentice in order to refine the method of cultivating immortals, but since he came, General Teng Snake saw that it was naturally not good for the Western White Emperor Shaohao to continue to ask anything, but first set up a three-year test period for him, if he could successfully pass the test, in the future, he can naturally become the senior brother of the Xianhua faction.

But Qingyin thought in private that there would only be a senior brother Yunshui Chenyi on Xianhua Mountain in the future, because which family of the family could withstand the green vegetables and rice every day.

However, what made Qingyin very unexpected was that since Yun Shui Chenyi came to the Emperor Mountain to apprentice, in the next few months, three young masters of the family came to the Wa Emperor Palace to apprentice, these three people were Liu Jinshan, who was born in the Central Plains martial arts family, Yang Jiu'an, who was born in the Jiangnan martial arts family, and Dusty Yuncang, who claimed to be from a small fishing village on the edge of the East China Sea.

The three of them are actually not very old, it seems that the oldest is only twenty-seven or eighteen, and the youngest is only a cardamom, but it is difficult to hide the thought of the worldly name in their hearts, and the eyes are dazzling and showing off, the three of them have only been in the Wa Emperor Palace for a few months, but they are all just now in the Wa Emperor Palace, and they have begun to fight for power-for-tat with a stable foundation in the Wa Emperor Palace, because Liu Jinshan and Yang Jiu'an are the children of the martial arts family after all, and they know how to recruit troops and horses to win the hearts of the people, so as soon as they came to the Wa Emperor Palace, they successively recruited dozens of disciples for the Wa Emperor Palace, and naturally no one was willing to succumb to Yun Shui Chenyi, the future quasi-senior brotherAfter all, if you can win the position of the senior brother in the Wa Emperor Palace, you will have the opportunity to get the true inheritance of the head of the Mu Shui Dust Tribulation, as long as you are fortunate enough to practice to perfection, it must be effortless to sweep the martial arts rivers and lakes to dominate, even if you want to be the emperor, what is the difficulty, as the master of the martial arts, what is the difficulty of sweeping the clouds and rain to sweep the thousands of armies, and how can you not cultivate the mana of the Wa Emperor, if you really become an immortal, I'm afraid that the Jade Emperor in the Lingxiao Hall may not be his opponent.

After all, mortals are not born immortals, even if they really put down the prosperity of the world and go to the deep mountains to cultivate immortals and seek the Tao, they may not be able to completely get rid of the seven emotions and six desires in their hearts, at most they will only be pure in their hearts to become immortals, and once they wish, how can they be willing to give themselves to eternity in a deep mountain and ancient cave quietly with heaven and earth with the same life, the sun and the moon shine together, since it has become an immortal body, and the mana is boundless, it is natural to immediately be ambitious to go to the three realms to unify the three realms and fight in all directions, after all, although the way of heaven is impermanent, the heavenly machine of becoming a king and defeating the king is unchanged, but it is a supreme position of the three realms, and the Jade Emperor was only ascended by ability, if you think that your ability is greater than him, and drive him away from the Lingxiao Palace, what is there not to do?
