Chapter 8: The Temple of the Night Talk Mountain (The Silver Alliance Thanks to the Silver Cod of the Imperial Concubine)
In the mountain temple, except for those guards, several people gathered around the campfire.
The old housekeeper smiled and said, "Several, meeting is fate, the night is long, let's introduce each other."
My lord is the new priest of the Ministry of Rites, Xiao Cunyi, after being transferred to the capital, he asked me to wait for the lady to go over, I wanted the path to be closer, but I didn't expect the barren mountains and mountains to be more difficult. β
The scholar arched his hand and said: "In the next is a scholar from Pingyang Mansion in Donglin County, named Zhao Xinghua, who is about to enter Beijing to catch the exam, and he also wants to take a shortcut, so he went around to this mountain." β
Among the men and women, the male looked proud and said: "I am Jiang Hanlin, the high-ranking elite disciple of the Qingyuan Sword Sect of Donglin County, this time I went out of the mountains and rivers and lakes, inspired to punish the evil and eliminate the evil, and kill the evil demons, you should have heard of the name of my Qingyuan Sword Sect, right?"
The woman said pretly on the side: "I am Han Jingjing, an introductory disciple of the Qingyuan Sword Sect, who came out to explore the rivers and lakes with my senior brother. β
Jiang Hanlin looked at the past, and the scholar Zhao Xinghua looked dazed, obviously he didn't know about the affairs of the rivers and lakes at all.
Gu Cheng also shrugged his shoulders, he had just crossed over, and he only knew a little about the cultivation world, how did he know what the hell this Qingyuan Sword Sect was?
The old butler snorted and said, "It turned out to be a young man from the Qingyuan Sword Sect, who was disrespectful and disrespectful. β
Anyone can see that this old butler obviously hadn't heard of the name of Qingyuan Sword Sect, and just gave the other party a step down, but Jiang Hanlin didn't see it, but instead raised his head proudly.
"What about you, this son?"
The old housekeeper looked at Gu Cheng.
Gu Cheng said lightly: "My name is Gu Changan, just an ordinary wanderer." β
A group of strangers who happen to meet don't need to report their names.
Gu Cheng's expression was given to him by Gu Lao Taijun after his parents died, which means long and peaceful, and is ready to be used when the crown is ready.
So even in the Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyong, few people shouted his words.
Hearing Gu Cheng say this, everyone didn't say anything.
Gu Cheng had experienced a fight before, his clothes were all torn, there were blood stains, and he had been crawling and rolling in the mountains and forests for so many days, he was already dirty, but like a wanderer.
The old butler smiled and said, "The night is long, and there is nothing to do, how about you tell a few interesting stories?"
Seeing that no one objected, the old housekeeper smiled and said, "Then since this is the case, the old man will talk about one first."
There is a legend in my hometown that when sleeping, the shoes are placed at the foot of the bed to ward off evil spirits, because the ghost determines the direction of the bed through the direction of the shoe and then climbs into the bed, and the ghost will not be able to find the bed.
When a woman heard the legend, she talked to her husband late at night as a joke, and he rebuked her for all nonsense.
When her husband went to the hut, the woman played with her shoes under the bed.
When her husband returned, he did not see him go to bed, but circled around the bed, shouting, "Where is the bed?"
The story of the old butler is very short, and his depiction is not terrifying, but there is a feeling of being extremely frightened, which makes Han Jingjing of the Qingyuan Sword Sect squeeze towards her senior brother one by one.
At this time, Zhao Xinghua said: "Let's tell a little story next."
You may have heard of the word "tiger", and this "δΌ₯" means "ghost".
Legend has it that a person who is eaten by a tiger will not be able to regenerate his soul, and will become a ghost, helping the tiger to lure passers-by.
The tiger eats a person and gets a new ghost, and then he will let the old ghost go. β
Han Jingjing wrinkled her little nose and said: "Then this ghost is really hateful, even if he dies, he will help the tiger that bites him to kill and harm others." β
Zhao Xinghua shook his head lightly and said, "If people don't do it for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed."
If you don't help the tiger kill people, he will not be able to live for the rest of his life, people are selfish, who dares to say that he has become a ghost, he will be willing to never be born and not to harm others?"
Jiang Hanlin snorted disdainfully: "Cowardice is cowardice, you have a lot of eyes, so you have to find so many excuses to come out." β
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little stiff, the old butler hurriedly said: "It's just a story, don't take it seriously."
Brother Gu wandered the rivers and lakes, but do you have any interesting stories to share with you?"
Gu Cheng shook his head and said: "Wandering the rivers and lakes, life is the most important thing, there are not so many interesting things in the future." β
It's only been a few days since Gu Cheng crossed, where is Gu Cheng's story? Could it be that he wants to tell them about the old corpses in the mountain village?
Jiang Hanlin waved his hand: "What you said is very boring, I'll tell you something exciting."
Have you ever heard of Mobei wolves? One by one, they kill people without blinking, and their methods are extremely cruel, killing people and robbing money, leaving no room for survival.
Three years ago, I went to Mobei alone, fought fiercely against wolves and thieves, killed in the dark, and overturned a cottage by myself. β
His junior sister Han Jingjing was surprised: "But senior brother, you seem to have said before, you weren't in Jiangnan three years ago, why did you go to Mobei again?"
Jiang Hanlin glared at her: "Your senior brother, I took the time to go to Mobei to punish the traitors and eliminate the evil, can't I?"
"Oooh. Han Jingjing nodded obediently.
Jiang Hanlin continued to wave his hand and gesture: "A year ago, on the ruins of the ancient city battlefield in Haitian County, there was an evil qi refiner who refined the corpse there, refining the countless corpses buried under the battlefield into zombies, and even the people of the Jingye Division had no choice.
It just so happened that I was in Haitian County at that time, and a great commander of the Jingye Division personally came to ask me for help.
How could a chivalrous man of my generation stand idly by when he saw such a thing? So he rushed into the corpse group with two swords, slashed from the east gate to the west gate, and slashed back and forth for three days and three nights, and the heads of the people rolled to the ground, but I just raised the sword in my hand, and the sword fell down, and the two long swords were cut into the blades, and I didn't even blink my eyes!
In the end, with my help, Jing Yesi was able to subdue the evil qi refiner. β
Han Jingjing held her chin and wondered: "Senior brother, our Qingyuan Sword Sect obviously doesn't have a method of dual swords, why do you want to use dual swords?"
And Master said that our Qingyuan Cold Light Sword takes the path of light spirit and stabs the opponent's vital points, why do you use the sword to cut people?"
was demolished twice, Jiang Hanlin was going crazy.
"I said, junior sister, why are your concerns so strange? Shouldn't you pay attention to how brave I am, and how terrifying zombies are?"
Saying that, Jiang Hanlin was still there gesturing:
"Let me tell you, those zombies with copper heads and iron arms can carry swords with their flesh, and if they are scratched by their fingernails or bitten, they will be immediately infected with corpse poison.
I've heard that some zombies have very strange corpse poison, and after biting them, they can even make you slowly turn from a living person into a zombie!"
Jiang Hanlin deliberately wanted to create a terrifying atmosphere in a deep tone, and at this moment, there was a sudden burst of fierce knocking on the door outside the mountain temple, which made Jiang Hanlin tremble.
I don't know when, dozens of strange figures stood outside the mountain temple, and through the firelight, you can see their bodies stiff, some with crooked heads and twisted limbs.
A gloomy wind blew, the campfire dimmed, but there was a low roar and grinding of teeth outside!
