More than half a month has passed since the night of the slaughter of the city by the willows, and it is clear from the spring equinox to the Qingming Festival.

These days, Zhong Ming's days have been dull, and it seems that after Liu Chengyin made trouble on the border overnight, all the strange things were frightened by the old devil and did not dare to come forward.

The young man was also happy to be quiet, practicing his sword every day to nourish his spirit, and when he had nothing to do, he went to the ridge to see the green wheat seedlings, or called the group of children running around in the village to come to his courtyard to read and write.

Two days ago, Zhong Ming also heard from Yang Yanlang that Liu Chengyin had gone deep into the hinterland of the New Tang Dynasty.

Xinting has a story about the hard-working mandarin duck, the old-fashioned lady of the big family, and the poor sour scholar.

This incident caused a stir in Xinting, and the government issued a document to arrest Liu Chengyin, and gave him a terrifying name, called "Flying Corpse King".

All kinds of rumors and stories began to circulate in the rivers and lakes, and the storytellers said that he was so divine that he could even compete with Bai Yujing's cicada fairy.

Some say that Liu Chengyin is a thousand-year-old corpse that has become a flying corpse and a dry fish; others say that Liu Chengyin is the chief disciple of Bai Yujing, who betrayed his master and brought disaster to the world.

Anyway, most people don't say that he is good, only the group of suffering mandarin ducks are looking forward to seeing Liu Chengyin, and he can preside over justice for himself.

After hearing this, Zhong Ming also laughed with Liang Heizi, saying that he, the big devil who had killed countless people, really went to be a matchmaker in the rivers and lakes.

There is nothing interesting today, it is close to noon, and Zhong Ming has been practicing knives in the courtyard.

Recently, the young man's knife technique has made great progress, the three gusts of wind knife practice is good, the first type of rolling sand has touched the door, the momentum of the knife is practiced vigorously, dragging the knife five times, there is always a time to be able to move forward with the dragon.

Although the young man's earth dragon was not as small as that night in the ruined temple, only as small as a snake, this was his own real sword kung fu, and the young man was also very satisfied.

Many people told the young man that he should not be in a hurry to practice the knife, so he stopped practicing frantically.

Compared with the knife technique, Zhong Ming's qi cultivation kung fu is called a thousand miles a day, with the help of Lao Liu's aura, he is like riding a thousand miles of good horses on the way to raise qi.

A month ago, there was only one true qi that Old Man Sun had crossed to him, and at this time, the spiritual qi in the young man's body was smaller, and at first the true qi was more condensed, revolving around the spiritual qi, and after the true qi, it was followed by the new true qi the thickness of the little finger.

There are nine qi seeking, and nine is consummation, and now the young man is already two true qi, according to his speed, it only takes one year to practice to find qi to perfection.

With such a cultivation speed, even Yang Yanlang of the Dikui Overlord Spear praised it.

The main thing is that the aura of the old willow has made contributions, and Zhong Ming is also very grateful to the old willow for this.

The willow branch brought back in the broken temple that night was planted in the courtyard by him, and during this time, with Zhong Ming's careful care, the willow branch actually survived tenaciously, maybe thousands of years later, it is the new old willow.

It's just that this willow is no longer surnamed Liu, and the surname will be changed to Zhong.

The sun is in the sky, and the sun is getting more and more recently, but it is almost noon, and it is already sweating on people's backs.

Zhong Ming stood in the middle of the courtyard, his eyes closed, the Yama Jue Ring Knife in his hand was mopping the ground at his side, and his body stood motionless like a rock.

Suddenly, Zhong Ming opened his eyes, and the sword dragon bird in his hand roared, and a red energy climbed up the blade.

The knife started, the dust in the small courtyard was flying, and the red knife drilled into the ground, winding forward, passing through the fence courtyard, and bombarding the open space outside the courtyard, with a soft sound, the sand and gravel suddenly rose.

The clearing outside the fence wall was covered with grass, except for the bare spot in the middle, all because of the sand that rang for the bells.

The knife is strong and the dragon has been completed, Zhong Ming breathes and retracts his breath, and casually inserts the knife into the scabbard next to him.

Collecting the sheath is also a technical job, at first Zhong Ming pressed the back of the knife with his fingers to put it in, but now he can put the knife back into the sheath without looking at it.

Without him, only familiar.

It can be seen that the young man has not been lazy during this time.

Seeing that it was already noon, Zhong Ming didn't plan to practice anymore, put away the Absolute Sound Knife and prepared to go back to the house.

At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves on the ground was remembered outside the courtyard, and Liang Yu was seen riding a black horse back.

Liang Yu's dress was also very different from before, his body had changed into a brocade robe, the short knife at his waist had been replaced with a standard horizontal knife, and the messy ponytail had also been tied into a martial artist's bun.

is because some time ago, Liang Yu always ran to the school captain's mansion and wanted to learn real kung fu from the fine scale rider.

Liang Yuyu is a little darker, but his heart is not black, and he also has his own ambitions.

At first, he ate mixed rice in the borderlands, and he was worried about food and clothing every day, but now that food and clothing are not a problem, his belly is full of thoughts, wanting to mix with an official and a half-job, and be a majestic official.

Since ancient times, there is a saying that the poor do not fight with the rich, and the people do not fight with the officials, Liang Yu is a ghost, and he knows that if he can enter the fine scale ride, he will not only eat and drink in this life, but also make a great contribution to the battlefield in the coming year, and he can also be a big official.

So Zhong Ming mentioned a sentence to Yang Yanlang, wanting Liang Yu to follow the fine scale to become a soldier.

Yang Yanlang saw that Liang Yu, this kid was also a bit smart, and he was a clever guy, so he asked Sun Longhu to take him to his side, as a little guy with a knife, and by the way, he trained with the fine scale cavalry on weekdays, and when he had a foundation, he directly asked for the fine scale armor for him and included it under the general's command.

Relying on the relationship between a smooth mouth and Zhong Ming, Liang Yu mixed well, and in the rest of the month, he took out a horizontal knife and hung it on his waist and asked a horse to ride.

Before coming to the small courtyard, Liang Yu turned over and dismounted, and walked into the small courtyard quickly.

After entering the door, Liang Yu hurriedly walked to Zhong Ming's side, and said in a low voice: "Brother Ming, there is news about the affairs of the Wu Mansion." ”

"Oh, what does the county order say?"

The two young men were talking about the sale of the Wu Mansion.

A month ago, Liu Qizhi slaughtered the mansion, and did not leave a descendant for the Wu family, and the Wu Mansion of Nuoda became an empty house.

Wu surnamed Wu, occupying a block, the mansion is always empty, so He County Ling led people to clean up the Wu Mansion, and collected all the valuable things to the county government treasury for the construction of the city wall.

Wu Mansion was also put up for sale, and the documents to be sold by Wu Mansion were hung on the notice board of the county government.

But Wu Mansion died more than 1,000 lives a month ago, or the flying corpse king Liu Chengyin did it, everyone rumored that the Wu family had a lot of grievances, and after death, they all turned into ghosts and ghosts, and they wanted to ask for their lives in Wu Mansion.

Coincidentally, one of the officials died while cleaning up the Wu Mansion.

The rumors of Wu's ghost asking for his life are even more spreading, and they are known all over the city, not to mention buying Wufu, he usually walks around the streets of Wu's house, for fear of being wronged.

But this rumor Zhong Ming didn't believe it, he saw it with his own eyes that night, Liu Chengyin drove the sea of corpses to kill the people of Wu Mansion, and the corpses and souls were also taken away by him, and there were also ghosts of Laoshizi.

As Zhong Ming guessed, the official did not die from a wrongful soul, but something else.

Liang Yu went to inquire about this matter, and he whispered to Zhong Ming: "Brother Ming, I just stuffed two taels of silver for the master, and secretly asked, the official was caught on the spot by He County's order because he was secretly hiding gold ingots, and he swallowed the gold ingots in a hurry and wanted to deceive, but he was choked to death by the gold ingots." ”

"Hey!

Zhong Ming shook his head, feeling worthless for the servant.

People die for money, birds die for food, and a piece of gold ingot is enough to make ordinary people red-eyed.

Liang Yu scratched his head, he knew that Brother Ming had thoughts about the Wu Mansion compound, not a ghost, this should not be a good thing, why did Ming'er shake his head and sigh.

He doesn't understand Zhong Ming's sentimentality, Liang Yu, who has been crawling and fighting from the corpse pile since he was a child, is cold to outsiders and never feels about the death of strangers.

Liang Yu asked, "Brother Ming, what should we do next, do we want to buy the Wu Mansion?"

Zhong Ming pondered for a moment and replied, "I want to buy it, but I just have to think about how to get the villagers of Silt Village to live with us." ”

The Wu Mansion is so big that it occupies an entire block, even if the young man buys it, it is impossible for him to live by himself, and he still thinks that he wants to bring the villagers of the silt village into it together, which can be regarded as making the best use of things.

It's just that the villagers in the mud village can't live with him like this, he is reasonable, but the group of illiterate villagers will not understand, even if they are willing to live with the young people, they will be afraid of ghosts all day long, if they have no intention of working at that time, but scare a few sick people, it will be more than worth the loss.

Zhong Ming opened his mouth to buy the mansion, and Liang Yu was also worried, but he was worried about the silver, so he asked: "Brother Ming, we only said to buy Wu Mansion, but this is not sky-high silver, where can I get this silver?"

Silver money is not a problem for Zhong Ming, and now the Wu Mansion is empty and cannot be sold.

He County Ling will definitely not ask for a high price, but the softness in the Wu Mansion is enough for He County Ling to make a lot of money, and now He County Ling is worried that Wu Mansion will not be able to live in people.

The Wu Mansion of Nuoda is empty, and the town is missing, so it is difficult to explain to it.

If Wu Mansion does not live in people, the legend of ghosts and monsters will not be broken, and people are panicked all day long, and there is no way to deal with it.

Zhong Ming smiled mysteriously and said: "I have my own way to buy Wu Mansion, as long as I am willing to bring people to live in it, He County Order will give me the Wu Mansion house deed even if it is sent." ”

As soon as the words changed, Zhong Ming frowned and said, "It's just that the villagers are not easy to do over there, we have to find a way to let the villagers live with me." ”

"That's easy!"

Liang Yu still has a lot of ideas, he scratched his chin and immediately replied: "It will be Qingming in two days, I heard that Uncle Sun found a Taoist to help our village run the sacrifice, and when he wanted to surpass the unjust soul of the barren mountain gang, we might as well tell Uncle Sun, and then let that Taoist person do things in Wu Mansion afterwards, and deceive the villagers." ”

Zhong Ming immediately nodded and said: "This method is good, you can do it, you can do it, I have been messing with Brother Longhu for two days, and my brain is good." ”

After receiving Brother Ming's praise, Liang Heizi immediately smiled from ear to ear.

Seeing that it was already noon, Zhong Ming looked up at the sun and said, "It's time to eat, come, Heizi, I'll cook for you today, and reward you for your meritorious advice." ”

Liang Heizi immediately smiled and said, "That's a good feeling, Brother Ming, I'll help you cut beef!"

Zhong Ming quipped: "Be sure to wash your hands, last time I pondered that beef porridge smelled, and if you don't get it, your hands are not clean." ”

The two young men laughed and walked into the house.

In the courtyard, a willow branch swayed at the corner of the courtyard, and the tender green branches grew strongly.

Just like the young man at this time, Yang Liu Yiyi eventually became a handsome talent.
