Chapter 288: Face

Li Xingyun woke up slowly, and when he opened his eyes, he was taken aback. Then he saw Chen Tang, and hurriedly struggled to sit up, shouting, "Daoist Mo, you saved me?"

"What do you say?"

Chen Tang said indifferently and stretched. Before you know it, the night has passed, no more snow, and the eastern sky is showing the white of the fish's belly, and today may be a good weather for the sun.

"Thank you for saving your life. ”

Li Xingyun knelt down.

Chen Tang threw the head of the old shepherd in front of him: "Li Zhutou, you should know this head, take it to receive the merit." ”

Li Xingyun immediately recognized it, gritting his teeth and feeling palpitations. He was stunned by the whip of the other party at that time, and he didn't know what happened next.

"And your subordinates, all wake up and take them back to the county office. ”

Chen Tang didn't explain too much, nor did he talk about the five people being turned into goats. He slew the old shepherd last night, broke his spell, and the five goats turned back into five people. Then let Ning Yi drag them back to the post pavilion to lie down, and roast the fire by the way. Otherwise, if these five people stay outside, they will definitely freeze to death.

Li Xingyun woke up the earliest and quickly woke up the other four. They knelt down in front of Chen Tang together, grateful for his life-saving grace.

Chen Tang waved his hand, turned over with Ning Yi and got on the horse, set off on the road, and continued to Gaocheng.

Later, Li Xingyun took his subordinates to see him, until he couldn't see anyone, and then he sighed: "This Mo Dao Chang really doesn't look like a captain of Nine Doors, but like a chivalrous man." ”

The reputation of Nine Doors is not good in circles. Either eccentricity, or cold, ruthless abounds. Even if you meet a kind-hearted person, you will never save people like Chen Tang, not only do you not want benefits, but also give credit.

But for Chen Tang, it was just a matter of convenience, and he didn't think too much about it.

After a while, there was a red sun spraying out, and it was really a good weather.

The two horses galloped, and the speed was much faster.

Chen Tang didn't want to delay too long on the road, so he took advantage of the good weather to rush more roads. However, the foot strength of the rouge horse is much faster than that of Ning Yi's brown horse, and if he lets go of the four hooves, Ning Yi will not be able to catch up with him as soon as he rides.

After eating good meat last night, Ning Yi was in good spirits, thinking that he would consume more today, and then he could eat more.

The situation in Qinzhou is indeed much more chaotic than that in Ningzhou.

This "chaos" does not mean that the law of order in the court has completely collapsed, it has not yet reached that point. It's just that the generals in command support their own troops, and the party fights against differences, and the officials at all levels under their command will naturally act recklessly. For example, the collection of all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, the pulling of strong men, and the indiscriminate arrest of wanted criminals.

The officials were fierce, and the people did not have a good life, making it difficult for the people to survive the winter, so a large number of people fled and wanted to cross the river to the south of the Yangtze River to avoid disaster.

As a native of Qinzhou, Ning Yi knows the way, and with him as a guide, he can save a lot of trouble. As for encountering some official errands, Chen Tang directly showed the token of the nine doors, and it could be unimpeded.

This is the benefit of identity, without this brand, there will definitely be a lot of trouble along the way.

I didn't say anything all the way, I couldn't see how unbearable, but I felt full of depression. Returning to his hometown, Ning Yi was even more full of pathos, and expressed some resentment, and even determined to test his fame, become a big official, and then be a good official to govern the people's livelihood.

This is exactly the typical bookish atmosphere.

Chen Tang had, and still does, but he no longer easily resorts to words. Ideal, always skinny.

On this day, the two rode horses and finally arrived in Gaocheng. There were many hardships along the way, but the two of them did not feel much tired, but they were very energetic. This is mainly due to the benefits of the demon's meat, which is eaten and danced in just a few days. Whether it was Chen Tang or Ning Yi, they all felt that their qi and blood were quite gained.

Unfortunately, the meat is almost finished. There are a few large bones left, and an incomplete fur.

On the way, from Ning Yi's mouth, Chen Tang was able to learn something about Qinzhou and Gaocheng. However, these status information is not stable, after all, with Ning Yi's level, he can't access much information.

When Yan Huandan left, he left Chen Tang with a specific address path. Now that he has arrived in Gaocheng, Chen Tang did not enter the city, but went to the town outside, stayed for one night, repaired it, and followed the path the next day to find the paradise Datang Township mentioned by Yan Huandan.

First the official road, then turn into the trail, and then pass through a dense mountain forest...... The more you walked ahead, the more remote and rugged it became, and gradually, the brown horse Ning Yi was riding became difficult to walk.

"Dao Chief, where are we going?"

Ning Yi couldn't help but ask.

"Find an isolated place, called Datang Township. ”

Chen Tang replied that at this time, there was nothing to hide.

Ning Yi looked dazed, he hadn't heard of this place. However, he knew that under the rule of the dynasty, there were indeed remote villages in some deep mountains and rivers, living a backward and cold life, which was unknown. I don't know if Chen Tang went there, whether he was looking for someone or doing something. But these, Ning Yi didn't ask, just follow along. His current state is wandering and has no goal, as long as Chen Tang doesn't drive him away, he will follow, at least, there is meat to eat, no need to go hungry.

In the current situation, it is quite satisfying to be able to eat enough.

When passing through a vast mountain and river, down the trend, the front suddenly opened up, but there was a river meandering, the water flow was gentle, very clear.

Seeing this water, Chen Tang's eyes lit up, and he knew that he had found a place.

On both sides of the river, there are river beaches, and in front of them are two peaks, one on the left and one on the right, sandwiched by a vein of flowing water, and it looks like the scenery is very beautiful and pleasant.

After going all the way over the mountains and mountains, Ning Yi was a little tired, so he hurried down, went to the river, and threw a handful of water on his face to wash it. Cool and refreshing, refreshed.

"Dao Chief, you can also wash it......

He turned around and called, and when he looked at it, his eyes couldn't help but straighten: "You, aren't you Brother Chen?"

It turned out that Chen Tang had restored his original appearance except for Wuji's face, and laughed: "Pinchen, are you surprised?"

Ning Yi smiled bitterly: "No, you hide it from me." ”

On the same day in Xinbai Town, the two met and traveled to Fayuan Temple together, encountering a delusional situation and a bizarre experience, which left a deep impression. It was also at that time that Ning Yi was accompanied by a female ghost Xiaohuan, and when he returned home, he saw the city government Zhang Bang and noticed Chen Tang's name, which was impressively Tanhua. Although I'm not sure that the two are the same person, I have my own guess in my heart.

Unexpectedly, the two met in Fenglin County, but Chen Tang changed his face and did not know each other.

No wonder......

Ning Yi felt more and more that Chen Tang was unfathomable.

Chen Tang smiled: "Pinchen, I conceal my identity, don't be surprised." ”

Saying that, he roughly told the matter, and Ning Yi was dumbfounded and embarrassed when he heard it. He loves to study and has also practiced martial arts, just to take a walk and see the world. However, compared to Chen Tang, it is simply unbearable.

It's so tough!
