Chentang Pass is a large pass city with a radius of thousands of miles, defending Donglu in the south and Chongzhou in the north, and it is also the largest shield of King Yin in the east.

As the main road of north-south traffic, on the official road outside Chentang Pass, there was an endless stream of people and horses neighing in the past.

It's just that now, it's quite fragmented.

Zhang Ran and the convex Daoist rushed to the city before the lock was locked, crossed the river and the Jiuwan River, and entered the city from the south gate.

"Chief soldier Li Jing is indeed a good hand at managing the army!"

Zhang Ran couldn't help muttering.

"It's a pity that there is no way to teach the son! The people in this pass ......have suffered for no reason," the protruding Taoist shook his head and sighed.

Soon after entering the city, they came to a crossroads of north and south streets, and the two parted ways and went their separate ways.

However, in extraordinary times, the rivers and lakes are far away, and saying "cherish" to each other also makes people feel related.

Zhang Ran walked slowly along the east-facing street.

The streets are very deserted, and a pedestrian occasionally passes by, and it is also in a hurry, which is not at all like the atmosphere that a big city should have.

After a while, I came to the door of a house called Yuelai Inn, raised my foot to enter, and the shopkeeper greeted me with a smile.

"The guest officer is in a hurry, and the old store is just vacant today!"

Zhang Ran nodded and asked for an upper room.

The upper room is in the backyard, it is a separate small yard, the ground is very clean, and there are some flowers and plants, which seems very quiet.

"Guest officer, you wash up first, go to the dust, and I will have someone send it over for dinner." It's okay to go out as little as possible, especially after dark, when there is a curfew on the street, and getting caught is no joke. ”

"Curfew? Why is it in a peaceful and prosperous world now?" Zhang Ran asked knowingly.

"Guest officer, don't you know? Hehe, this Chentangguan was originally quite peaceful, but a while ago, Li Shuai's third son killed Ao Bing, the son of the Dragon King of the East China Sea. Li Shuai is not afraid of the dragon clan's revenge, so the city is stricter. The shopkeeper smiled bitterly, "It's just that those of us who do business have lost most of the customers." ”

"I've heard a little about it, but I don't know if these three sons are Nezha, why did they kill the son of the Dragon King for no reason......" Zhang Ran asked with interest.

The shopkeeper explained with a smile: "What the guest officer said is right, our third son of Chentangguan is Nezha, although he is a well-known demon king of the world, but he is not a bastard.

He was born with a vision. Others were pregnant for ten months, but Mrs. Li was pregnant for three years and six months before giving birth to the third son, Nezha, and I heard that it was still the reincarnation of a spirit bead.

Therefore, he can speak and run as soon as he is born, no different from a three- or four-year-old child, and at the age of seven, he is like a teenager, and even more mature.

Later, he worshipped Taiyi Zhenren in Jinguang Cave of Qianyuan Mountain as a teacher and learned a spell.

What's even more rare is that although these three sons are messing around, they are very righteous, and they often roar when they see injustice, and they do good deeds without leaving a name.

As for him killing Ao Bing, it was not for nothing!"

"Oh, I want to hear about it!"

Zhang Ran nodded, and said in his heart that this Nezha wouldn't really kill Ao Bing just because he took a bath, right?

"This dragon king's son Ao Bing, who was originally different from our human race, came to Chentang Pass to rob the people's daughters by virtue of the coercion of being an errand in the heavenly court. happened to be met by Nezha, and he was killed by him, peeling and cramping!

Speaking of which, Nezha still did a good deed, but it's a pity that this Dragon King of the East China Sea is not good at stubble, and he will definitely not give up......"

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he retreated with emotion.

Unexpectedly, Nezha turned out to be different from the original impression.

Before that, I always thought that Nezha was a troublemaker, relying on the fact that the master was a real person of Taiyi with twelve golden immortals, and he acted misbehaps.

No matter what you do, in the end, Master will take care of it.

In fact, in Zhang Ran's heart, it can almost be determined that the red-clothed boy who saved himself in Skull Mountain is Nezha.

Judging from the Nezha I saw and the Nezha in the mouth of the store guys, I have subverted my impression of Nezha.

Although Nezha is still a reckless leather child who loves to cause trouble, such a leather child is full of a sense of justice.

If you don't have to do it, you need to borrow the Qiankun Bow, and you really don't want to be an enemy of Nezha.

"Alas, it's not an enemy, it's just a loan, and it's a big deal to return it when it's used up. ”

Zhang Ran comforted himself softly, and thought of the curfew at night, and couldn't help but smile.

It's better that there are fewer people......

I ate something casually, slept until the second half of the night, and estimated that the time was at the end of the ugly year, Zhang Ran got up with a bone.

After changing into a Xuan robe, he checked the talisman seal and flying sword in the storage bag, and then felt the green bell in the dantian, and happily walked out of the room.

took out the sneaking talisman made by Zhang and pasted it on his body, gathered his breath, and came to the street of Chentangguan.

In the second half of the night, the whole city fell into silence and darkness, and occasionally a few barking dogs and the sound of beating people could be heard.

Swagger down the street without worrying about being spotted.

Yuelai Inn is only a piece of land away from the east gate of the city, and it takes only half a pillar of incense.

I didn't meet a single pedestrian on the road, but I was checking the night and knocked down a group, but when I saw him, I left him as if I didn't see anyone.

Zhang Ran came to the gate all the way without danger, looked up at the arrow tower on the city gate, and saw an angry wind lantern hanging under the eaves, emitting a miserable white light.

Three or five soldiers lined up on the battlement wall, patrolling back and forth in a small formation, looking meticulous.

Zhang Ran took a look, pinched the magic trick, quickly climbed up the city tower, and took advantage of the faint light to touch the arrow tower.

The entire arrow tower was a three-story wooden building, which he had carefully observed during the day, and the treasure of Zhenguan, the Qiankun Bow and the Heaven-Shaking Arrow, were placed on the highest floor.

It's just that I don't know if Nezha put the Qiankun bow back to the arrow tower after he came back.

Either way, you have to find out if you go and explore!

Leaning over and looking into the room, I saw a few soldiers lying on the desk, already asleep, maybe it was a change of shift.

Zhang Ran took a deep breath and swam up like a gecko along the outer wall of the arrow tower.

After a few breaths, he came to the top floor of the arrow tower, and saw a beam on his side, and he turned over and landed lightly on it.

"Who?"

Suddenly, a child's voice came from the room.

Zhang Ran couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: "It's not good!"

As soon as I arrived, I was discovered......

Could it be that the effect of his stealth talisman is too poor to be seen at a glance in the eyes of cultivators? And those old guys in Nuwa Palace are just deliberately pampering themselves and teasing them?

This is a life-saving thing, and even dare to joke!

Okay, you old man Mo, wait until you get back to Nuwa Palace, and see how I settle accounts with you!

Zhang Ran hated a lot in his heart, and was about to leave, when he suddenly heard another person's angry shout from the room: "Nezha, you return my son's life!"

Well?

Didn't you realize yourself!

It's just that why is this sound a little familiar?
