Chapter 10 The willows are cloudy and drizzling
After going down Taiping Mountain, I returned to Wan Datian's house and found that Wan Datian was not at home, and there was last night's meal on the dining table, and no chopsticks were moved.
Bai Zimo was strange, so he went to the kitchen and put down the hare he picked up on the mountain, he was still complacent, strange things happen every year, there are many this year, there are even hares that will crash into the tree and die.
I left the cost of food and lodging for these days, and then I went out of the house. Just as he was about to leave, he saw Wan Datian returning home dejectedly from a distance.
hurriedly said hello, but when Wan Datian saw Bai Zimo, he suddenly came to his senses and trotted all the way back.
It turned out that he saw that Bai Zimo didn't come back as usual last night, thinking that Bai Zimo had an accident on the mountain, so he went up the mountain to look for Bai Zimo all night, and only now did he come back, and he was going to call more people to go up the mountain to search together......
When Bai Zimo learned about it, he was moved in his heart. He is different from the past now, and he can't help but sigh with emotion, and he really slaughters more dogs.
After writing down this cause and effect, Bai Zimo bowed his hand to Wan Datian, only saying that he was greedy for the beautiful scenery on the mountain for a while and missed the time to go down the mountain.
......
Leaving the Li Mansion in the town, Li Zhizhong paced back and forth in the middle hall, frowning. On the wooden chair in the middle hall, there was also a middle-aged man dressed as a Taoist priest, his eyes closed lightly, and his expression was calm.
A subordinate in the family came in and said a few words to Li Zhizhong, and his face was even more ugly when he heard it, and he waved his hand to let the subordinate retreat.
Not long after, another butler-like subordinate entered the middle hall, and Li Zhizhong hurriedly asked.
"Have you found any traces of Master Bai?"
The housekeeper shook his head, "Master, all the family members sent out have returned, and the big towns and towns in the entire Shangyuan County have been searched, and the places of interest and historic sites have been searched, and Master Bai has never been found." ”
After a pause, he added: "But I once heard in Surabaya Town that there was a silver-haired man in a deserted post station, and he said golden words to scare away evil spirits. ”
Silver-haired, can you still speak golden words to repel evil ghosts? When Li Zhizhong heard it, who was Master Bai?
"That must be Master Bai, who did you listen to?"
"It is said that an old man who went to Surabaya Town to treat people said that when we arrived, the man was no longer in Surabaya Town, and the little one also instructed his family to go to the post station that the old man said to check around, but found nothing. ”
After listening to this, Li Zhizhong was disappointed, sat down, and said weakly to the housekeeper: "Let people look for it again." ”
The butler answered and retreated.
"Li Juren, if the Master Bai you said is really a master, he must have an ethereal whereabouts, and it is not something that a few subordinates can find in a while. Although the demon is extremely vicious and poor, he can also meet him for Li Juren for a while. ”
The middle-aged Taoist priest opened his eyes, picked up the teacup, and took a sip of tea.
Li Zhizhong didn't know that a master like Master Bai, ordinary people, etc., could not be found, but he just wanted to do his best and obey the destiny of heaven. At the moment, the middle-aged Taoist priest arched his hand.
"What Zhang Daochang said is very true, then I will leave tonight's matter to you. ”
This Zhang Daochang was invited to the mansion by Li Zhizhong for a lot of money. It was just in case that Bai Zimo couldn't be found, so he could ask him to help, but he didn't expect that he really had to rely on him.
Since meeting Bai Zimo, Li Zhizhong has a sense of magic for the so-called masters. This time I was also forced to do it, I just hope that this Daoist has some real skills.
It's really a coincidence that Master Bai is wandering...... Li Zhizhong sighed.
Not long after Bai Zimo left the Li Mansion, the Li Mansion encountered a disaster, which actually had something to do with Bai Zimo.
It turned out that the evil that Li Zhanbo was in on the White Birch Mountain was not a sneaky act, but a demon named the Blood Demon who moved his hands and feet. Unexpectedly, he was accidentally hit by Bai Zimo, and let the third master of Toad break his evil art.
The Blood Demon Lord came to the door, directly seriously injured several subordinates of the Li Mansion, and threatened to come back at night in three days, asking Li Zhizhong to prepare five boys and five girls, if he didn't comply, he would make the Li Mansion restless.
Although Li Zhizhong's family is well-off, it is a family property handed down from his ancestors, and he is only a scholar, and he can't help the world and feel ashamed of the sage book, how dare he really help the demon prepare boys and girls. You don't have to think about it to know what will happen to the children who are sent out.
So one sent someone to find Bai Zimo, and the other hurried to invite the master to come and relieve the siege. It's not that Li Zhizhong didn't think about reporting to the official, but how much ability Kanli had to arrest the officials in the town, he Li Zhizhong knew it very well......
Hearing this, Daoist Zhang nodded with a smile. With a confident look, Li Zhixin was a lot more down-to-earth.
Throughout the day, the entire Li Mansion was like a great enemy, and everyone knew that something big might happen tonight, and everyone was in a hurry......
The day was calm, and in the anxiety of everyone in the Li Mansion, the night seemed to come faster than usual. The Li Mansion, which used to be lively and noisy, is frighteningly quiet tonight.
Li Zhizhong had already transferred the female dependents and children of his family to other places to avoid risks for the time being, and only young and strong men were left in the huge Li Mansion.
At this time, it was the beginning of April, Mengxia.
At night, it suddenly rained lightly, sparse and thin, and the willows in the front courtyard of the Li Mansion were lightly blown by the rain and wind, swaggering slightly. If it were ordinary, Li Zhizhong would definitely make a big deal of poetry, and Xu would chant a sentence and a half sentence "Yang Liu Yin Yin and Drizzle" and the like.
At this time, he just cursed in a low voice, damn rain.
After going to the vestibule to check it, he rushed back to the middle hall and chatted casually with Daoist Zhang to distract his nervousness.
Approaching the third watch, the blood demon has not yet come, and Li Zhixin showed a glimmer of hope, maybe this rain has disrupted his arrangements, it's best not to come......
"Daochang Zhang, isn't this rain coming in time, the demon forgot to bring an umbrella on the road and found a place to shelter from the rain?"
When Daoist Zhang heard this, his hand holding the teacup shook a little, what is he a scholar! What do you think about all day long......
Li Juren laughed, but if the demon didn't come, it would be fine, he would definitely taste the three flavors of the poor Dao true fire when he came. ”
Li Zhizhong also found that what he said was a little laughable.
Zhang Daochang smiled, and when I became nervous, I was incoherent. ”
The rain seems to be heavy again.
Li Zhizhong stood up and wanted to ask his subordinates to take shelter from the rain first. I had just taken two steps out and was fixed there.
In the darkness, a person suddenly appeared outside the middle hall like a ghost, and no one in the entire Li Mansion realized how he had entered.
"Li Juren, are the boys and girls I want ready?" said to Li Zhizhong, who came with a grim laugh. As he spoke, he walked into the middle hall unscrupulously.
It was the Blood Demon Lord, dressed in red, strange to ordinary people's attire, and his face was dry.
Although it was not the first time they met, Li Zhizhong was still frightened by him like that. Suddenly he sat down on the ground and opened his mouth, but he couldn't speak.
Seeing this, Daoist Zhang hurriedly stood up from his chair, pulled out a sword from behind his back, and stared at the Blood Demon Humane.
"Who is the demon, dare to be presumptuous in my eternal dynasty, if you obediently tie your hands and arrest you, the poor road will spare your life, otherwise let you taste the power of my three flavors of true fire. ”
As he spoke, he raised the sword in his hand.
"Ugly ......" After hearing this, the Blood Demon Lord laughed gloomily: "The carving insect skill also dares to come out and sacrifice ugliness!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his cuffs waved, and a gust of wind mixed with a fishy smell rushed towards Daoist Zhang.
Daoist Zhang only had time to block the sword horizontally in front of his chest, but he didn't know that it had no effect at all, and the wind was so strong that Daoist Zhang even knocked out with a sword.
What is the situation? Daoist Zhang only had one thought flashing through his mind, and then he fainted.
"It seems that the helper invited by Li Juren is useless. ”
Lord Blood Demon looked at Daoist Zhang who was dead on the ground, and his dry face became more gloomy.
Li Zhizhong's face was bloodless, and his lips trembled. Sure enough, there are so many high-ranking people running all over the street.
I used all my strength to finally squeeze out a sentence.
"Master Bai, save my ......"
When Lord Blood Demon heard this, he laughed, "Master Bai in your mouth, which god stick is it, hahaha......"
Click......
Outside the house, it rained harder.
"Hehehe...... Who is calling this great immortal? ”
Both of them in the room looked out of the house......
In the heavy rain, an emaciated figure walked slowly and gently stepped over the threshold of the vestibule. Full of silver hair, especially dazzling on a rainy night.
Holding the burden in one hand and a small bamboo in the other. Walking through the rain, the rain automatically swept past him, and the rain did not touch him.
From far and near, coming from the rain, the two people in the room quietly watched the man enter the central hall unhurriedly, his whole body dry and refreshing, and there was not a trace of water on the floor under his feet.
"Li Juren, how are you doing?"
Bai Zimo arched his hand towards Li Zhizhong, and he was still immersed in the feeling of walking in the rain just now.
In fact, on the way, he happened to encounter rain, so he tried to mobilize the aura in the dantian, and found that it could really keep the rain from sticking to his body, which made him very happy, and there was more water along the way.
Li Zhizhong had never seen such a miracle, and when he heard Bai Zimo ask him, he forgot that the crisis had not been resolved, and said in a daze, "It's okay, it's okay......" After a pause, he remembered that Lord Blood Demon was still on the side, and immediately shouted again, "Master Bai save me." ”
As soon as Bai Zimo entered the house, he noticed that the atmosphere was wrong. Li Zhizhong sat on the ground, and there was the red-clothed weirdo who was neither male nor female. Well, it's so ugly to dress and it's really bad taste.
"Li Juren, don't panic, please get up first. ”
As soon as the Blood Demon Lord Bai Zimo entered the house, he was already frightened, and the hand that Bai Zimo showed in the rain before was all in his eyes. knew that the silver-haired man in front of him was not a Taoist priest who fainted to death on the ground, but a real master.
If there is such a cultivator, the only one he knows is the hall master in the hall.
The more Lord Blood Demon thought about it, the more weak he became.
"I don't know that there are great people here, and there are many offenses, so I will leave. Lord Blood Demon said and wanted to leave.
"Wait. Bai Zimo looked at him with a smile, "Did I say let you go?"
Combined with Li Zhizhong's actions, coupled with a Taoist priest lying on the ground who was uncertain about his life and death, and looking at the red-clothed strange man, he didn't look like a good person, Bai Zimo could guess it in his heart.
"Your Excellency, don't deceive people too much, although your cultivation is profound, you can offend our Hundred Immortal Hall, and it will not benefit you. ”
When Bai Zimo heard this, he was unhappy in his heart. I haven't heard of it. Do you know who it is......, my junior brother? Well, it's about to be a dragon, you dare to bluff me?
"Hehe...... "I'm worried that no one can help me try my cultivation, how can Bai Zimo let the Blood Demon Master leave." Lifting the small bamboo, he slowly walked towards him.
"Since Your Excellency insists on this, don't blame me for being rude. "Lord Blood Demon is very nervous.
"The carving insect skill also dares to come out to offer ugly ......" The retribution came so quickly, and I don't know if Bai Zimo knew what happened just now, and returned what the Blood Demon Lord said before to him as it was.
Seeing that the little bamboo was getting closer and closer to him, Lord Blood Demon somehow felt a sense of insignificance that he couldn't resist, as if there was nothing else in the entire heaven and earth, leaving only a small bamboo.
Bai Zimo held the small bamboo, and pointed at the stunned Blood Demon Lord, lightly, right in the center of his eyebrows.
Above the dantian, visions emerge one after another, and the stream, which has always been calm, is surging like the Nu River, and the small hills are moving, sending out bursts of gold and stone dings. The spiritual power passed through the small bamboo and was instantly poured into the body of the demon master.
It turned out to be just a martial artist, Bai Zimo chuckled. However, this person's internal strength is strange, mixed with a trace of strange toxin......
"Baixiantang won't let you go......" Lord Blood Demon screamed, looked at Bai Zimo with a shocked expression, and then fell to the ground on his back.
Bai Zimo himself was also startled, probed his breath, and found that he was dead.
Mistakes...... I was also on a whim, but after all, I was unfamiliar with the spiritual power in my body, so I didn't expect to kill people directly.
