In the courtyard, a group of guests were practicing martial arts, and they were practicing in full swing and very seriously. The news of Snow Moon Island has spread, and it has caused panic. Different from the evil rumors in the past, this time the victims are all the children of rich and noble families, and there is no shortage of children of official eunuchs. If even they can't escape the poisonous hands, then aren't ordinary people even more dangerous? You must know that the common people do not understand the evil target taste, but only subconsciously feel frightened, and everyone is in danger. The warriors even have a feeling of imminent disaster, and for the sake of today's plan, there is no other way than to practice hard and improve their strength to protect themselves.

These days, there are accidents in the city, and accidents outside the city are frequent. According to incomplete statistics, more than 20 disasters have occurred, with hundreds of casualties. Most of these people are travelers, or people who want to move and want to leave from Panzhou.

Ox carts carrying corpses entered the city almost every day, and many more were buried directly outside, an incalculable number......

Unconsciously, the current situation in Panzhou, which people thought was gradually becoming more stable, became treacherous in vain. As for the yamen, there is nothing they can do. In order to deal with many incidents, the people of the nine doors of Panzhou were tired and busy, and at the same time, the manpower was so damaged that even at night, they didn't dare to come out to perform the task.

Chen Tang stood in the courtyard, his eyes were cold, and he occasionally walked over, pointing out a few words to a certain doorman and correcting some martial arts mistakes. The doorman got the pointer and practiced more diligently. In their minds, Chen Tang is not only the head of the family, but also a "master".

Time flies quickly, and at dusk, the sunset is like blood, a ball of red, and it burns for a long time like blood.

Chen Tang took Su Tao and Fu Mingjin out and wanted to go to the city for a walk. When I got to the street, I saw people working at the door of the shops on both sides, taking out items such as paper money and paper sticking people, putting them away, and then burning them.

The wind blew, blowing the paper ashes and flying.

"Well, these people, are there all dead people in the family?"

Chen Tang frowned, although he kept hearing about the disaster, and from time to time there was terrifying news that someone in the family had died, and even that the door had been destroyed, but now he saw that every household was burning paper money, and the scale was too amazing.

Fu Mingjin hurriedly said: "Door head, this is the Midyear Festival is coming, and the people burn paper according to the routine." ”

Chen Tang was stunned: "Midyear Festival?"

"Yes, the day after tomorrow is the Midyear Festival. This festival, also known as the 'Ghost Festival', is said to have gone out to forage for food on that night. There are also many deceased people who will come home to see if their families are filial, anyway, all kinds of arguments are extremely evil. ”

Fu Mingjin explained 1510.

"The day after tomorrow, July 15, the midyear festival ......"

Chen Tang's heart was shocked, he was busy with various affairs during this time, and he really didn't notice the existence of this day.

Fu Mingjin said: "Recently, there have been too many treacherous things in the city, and people are afraid of causing trouble, so they burn incense and paper in advance to pay tribute, and burn it for several days. ”

Chen Tang nodded: "I see." ”

But there is another thing in my heart, and I can't get rid of it.

The three of them came to a restaurant, sat down in a private seat by the window, ordered a few dishes, and began to eat and drink as dinner.

The people's livelihood is withering, and the restaurant business is not good, and it seems deserted.

While eating, I heard the noisy drum music, beating gongs and drums, and the suona sounding, which was very lively. It is mixed with strange and obscure chanting sounds, as if someone is doing red and white things.

Chen Tang was stunned, and when he heard this drum music, he looked downstairs. Not long after, a large contingent of honor guards appeared, with hundreds of people, looking at the costumes, wasn't it exactly the costume of the Divine Lotus Sect? In the honor guard, a statue of the god covered with a white cloth was carried and not seen in front of people, but this did not prevent people on both sides from coming to kneel down and offer incense, and people flocked to buy rune paper from the wild Taoist in the honor guard, as if they were afraid that they would not be able to grab it, and then solemnly hung it outside their homes.

"Doom is coming, the catastrophe is rampant, the divine lotus is born, save my believers......"

Leaning forward, a mage shook a brass bell and chanted aloud.

Chen Tang almost couldn't help but shoot the case.

For a long time, there were many wild people in the city, setting up stalls to draw talismans, like ghost talismans, to cheat money. And in order to seek peace of mind, many people spend money to buy it. In addition to buying rune paper, some people who were so confused that they also bought some "light-opening magic weapons" at a high price, such as a peachwood sword, a rusty copper bell, or an iron pestle or something. But I didn't expect that these wild Dao people were all sent by the Divine Lotus Sect, and now they are still forming a guard of honor in a grand manner, patrolling the city and shouting, and doing business.

Affected by the incident on Xueyue Island, Gu Heng lived in a simple place, and the Admiral Academy had lost much of its voice, so what about the yamen presided over by Yan Zhifeng? If there was no bargain between it and the Divine Lotus Sect, then it would be a hell of a thing. It was precisely because of certain permissions that even the Jinchan Temple and some Taoist temples in the city pretended to be deaf and dumb and did not interfere. Or, by default, these people are doing their own business, and no one reveals anyone's face.

What an absurd time!

Su Tao looked at the team and sighed: "These demon roads are really easy to earn, and after walking around, you have to use a few ox carts to load money." Tsk, I don't know if those runic paper magic tools are really useful and can resist evil scourges. ”

Fu Mingjin touched his head: "It's all said outside, those people who have hanging the Divine Lotus rune paper at the door, there is really nothing wrong." In this way, there is a flood of natural believers. ”

Chen Tang sneered: "Those ordinary people, naturally it's fine. ”

Fu Mingjin smiled and said, "In this way, you shouldn't have practiced martial arts in the first place. ”

Chen Tang's eyes flashed: "Under the nest, are there all the eggs? Grassroots ants will always be the group that is most trampled on." They can't be seen, and they can't become demon blood food, but they are already other people's fish and meat, and they are slaughtered by others. Besides, the time has changed, one is not good, even if it only has a little blood, it will be collected and gathered into a tower. ”

Su Tao and Fu Mingjin listened, their faces became heavy.

Chen Tang took a piece of meat, chewed it slowly, and said, "Halloween is coming, something big will happen in the next two or three days, you all have to wake up." ”

"Yes. ”

The two responded in unison, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

Dengdenden!

The sound of hurried stairs came, and then a person rushed up, seeing Chen Tang, like seeing a savior, he rushed in one step.

Chen Tang asked, "Uncle Quan, what's wrong?"

Uncle Quan couldn't care about wiping his sweat: "Wuji, something is wrong." That Yan Zhifeng and Tan Yuan joined forces, as well as the people of the Nine Gates, saying that the adults colluded with the demons, and they surrounded the mansion with men and horses, and they wanted to arrest people. By the way, they're going to arrest you. ”

In the current situation in Panzhou, the three maintain a delicate balance. But obviously, when something happens, this fragile balance will be broken all at once, and as the weakest one, the Gu family will naturally be the first to be bitten and eaten.

Chen Tang understands this truth, and Gu Heng also understands it. Gu Heng is in an official position and can't leave, so he wanted to arrange for his children to leave, but it happened to happen, so he was delayed. Now, Yan Zhifeng and the others finally tore their faces and showed their fangs.

In Chen Tang's opinion, this day will come sooner or later, and the matter of Snow Moon Island is a fuse. The big drama opened, and all the cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, in front of and behind the scenes, should also appear one by one.
