Two days later, on the 14th of July.

On this day, Li Ze and the others had already come to the territory of Shaanzhou, and now six days had passed since they left Bianzhou.

There are twenty-two days left before the crown ceremony.

In these two days, under the guidance of Song Wentong, his strength successfully broke through and reached the realm of the small heavenly position.

However, because of the descendants of Heavenly Sin and that world, he was not as excited as he imagined after breaking through to the Little Heaven Position.

Even the Great Heavenly Rank is only the first stage of cultivation... Qi training period.

There are also refining gods, dissolving voids, and merging the way, and he is still just laying the foundation.

There's nothing to brag about.

In the past two nights, whenever he fell asleep, he would still arrive in the white space.

He tried to establish contact with the green lotus, but to no avail.

For two days, I didn't encounter the same accidents as the first two times, and nothing special happened.

If there must be one, it is that they encountered a group of robbers when they were about to arrive in Shaanzhou.

For that gang of robbers, Li Ze was in the spirit of letting go, but in the end, he was killed by Song Wentong, and now the corpses should have stinked in this weather.

After resting in Shaanzhou for another night, Li Ze took Mao Mao and Song Wentong out of the city early the next morning, heading towards their next destination, Huazhou.

On the way, Li Ze would ask Song Wentong about cultivation if he had anything to do.

And Song Wentong also answered his inquiries one by one.

The two sides had a tacit understanding, and they didn't discuss the matter of the descendants of Heavenly Sins anymore, and it seemed that nothing had happened.

In fact, both of them knew in their hearts that they didn't know much about the descendants of Heavenly Sin and there, and what they knew was only from other people's mouths.

I don't know how much is true or how much is false?

Anyway, after waiting for the crown ceremony, Li Zetian's sin mark will mature, and then he will really enter there.

See what kind of world it is, and what kind of identity is he, a descendant of heavenly sin, in that world.

Instead of speculating here, it's better to wait until twenty days later to see for yourself.

Because he has just broken through the small heavenly position, his control of strength is not very fine.

In the next day, they did not rush as slowly as before, but relied on their own internal strength to rush to the road.

What Li Ze has to do is very simple, that is, let the internal force consumed by him rush be proportional to the internal force he recovers, and always maintain a perfect state.

If he can achieve this, then he can barely control the strength of the small heavenly position.

It is precisely because of the reason for relying on light work to rush that Huazhou, which originally took two days to reach, was only one day to arrive.

July 15th, evening.

In a restaurant by the Weishui River, Li Ze looked at the ordinary people who put river lamps below, and couldn't help muttering to himself.

"Sacrifice, I wonder if there are really ghosts in this world?"

Hearing his muttering, Song Wentong couldn't help but reply.

"Ghosts, we may not have them here, but they must be there!"

On July 15th, the Taoist Zhongyuan Festival, known as the Yu Lan Festival in Buddhism and the Ghost Festival in folklore.

On this day, ordinary people need to sacrifice to their ancestors, sacrifice to the gods, and pray for the prosperity of the family and the harvest of grains next year.

Releasing river lanterns is one of the customs.

"Yes, there are immortals, let alone ghosts?

Brother Wentong, do you say that we also have ghosts after death, and if our ghosts have their own memories, then are we really dead?"

"This ......"

Song Wentong shook his head and replied with some uncertainty.

"This, maybe!"

Li Ze nodded noncommittally at this ambiguous answer, looked up at the opposite side of Weishui, and seemed to see the existence of another river.

"In the third year of the early Huang Dynasty, Yu Chaojing was the master and returned to Luochuan. The ancients had a saying that the god of water is called Concubine Mi......

Brother Wentong, you said that there is a Luo Shen in Luoshui?"

"Mingxin, I'm just in contact with those, and I don't know much more than you, and I want to know what you asked!"

Hearing this, Li Ze withdrew his divergent thoughts and touched his nose with embarrassment.

"Haha, Brother Wentong, I'm not curious too!"

As he spoke, Li Ze turned his head again and didn't dare to look at Song Wentong's speechless expression.

But with a casual glance, I saw a strange combination in the distance of Weishui below.

A group of more than a dozen people, wearing armor and black iron masks, carried a coffin and slowly walked towards the edge of Weishui.

Looking at the pair, he felt a little uncomfortable and frowned.

"It's really strange, this group of people not only has to be buried on Halloween, but also wearing armor, could it be some general?"

Song Wentong also saw the strange combination below, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.

"It's just that the two watchdogs of the Xuanming Sect have such a big shelf, and it seems that the Ghost Emperor is not very good. ”

As if he had thought of something, he muttered to himself.

"The Xuan Ming Sect appeared here, could it be that there was something here that caught their attention?"

When Song Wentong said this, he couldn't help but look at Li Ze beside him, couldn't it be caused by him again?

Li Ze was also surprised when he heard Song Wentong's words, and looked at the strange combination below again.

He knew about the Xuanming Sect, and it was said to be a well-known killer organization in the rivers and lakes.

When he was wandering the rivers and lakes, he had also heard of the other party's name. It's just that I haven't seen it all the time, but now it's really extraordinary.

At least on the day of the Midyear Festival, it is quite powerful to carry the coffin and swagger out.

Turning his head to look at Song Wentong with a contemplative expression, he asked curiously.

"Brother Wentong, which of the following people do you say are from the Xuanming Sect?"

Song Wentong was originally thinking about things, but after hearing his words, he also came back to his senses and bowed slightly.

"That's right, no matter how you dress or how you look at it. Only the people of the Xuanming Sect would be like this.

And the two in the coffin below should be the two watchdogs of the Xuanming Sect, black and white impermanence......"

Speaking of this, Song Wentong showed a smile on his face.

"Black and white impermanence, the five great Yan monarchs, the judge of water and fire, Meng Po, the ghost king and the Emperor of Hades... Hehe, if the people of the Xuanming Sect know that these are real, what will happen if they don't know?"

The smile on his face became even brighter, as if he had seen a very interesting picture.

After hearing Song Wentong's words, Li Ze also reflected.

According to the rumors in the rivers and lakes, the division of positions in the Xuanming Sect is based on the positions of the underworld.

The Emperor of the Underworld, the Ghost King, the Yama, the Judge, and the impermanence of black and white, etc......

Li Ze didn't know about that world before, and the people of the Xuanming Sect also didn't know about the existence there, so no one could say anything about their position division.

But now that Li Ze knows that that world exists, it is very likely that there is also an underworld in that world, and there should also be those positions in the underworld...

So. There was also a smile on his face,

"Brother Wentong, I have heard that the Xuanming Sect is a major killer organization in the rivers and lakes, and the sect members are all over the Central Plains, do you say that they have any plans to come to Huazhou this time?"

Song Wentong nodded affirmatively.

"The Xuanming Sect was established by Zhu Wen's eldest son Zhu Youqi under the orders of the old thief, and the purpose of its existence is to spy on intelligence and assassinate dissidents.

This time the two watchdogs are here, so there is no important ......"

Speaking of this, Song Wentong stopped his next words, because the group of Xuanming Sect members below moved.

I saw that on the bank of the Weishui River downstairs, because of the costumes of the people of the Xuanming Sect and the long knife hanging from their waists, the ordinary people who put river lanterns by the river were frightened and retreated early.

Now there are only two groups left on the riverbank below.

One group is the people of the Xuanming Sect, and the other group is a father and daughter.

The father is about 30 years old, and the daughter is a little over a year old who has just learned to walk.

At this time, the father was holding his daughter in his arms, looking coldly at the Xuanming Sect members who were surrounding him.

With a "boom", the coffin board carried by more than a dozen Xuanming Sect members exploded violently, and two figures, one black and one white, flew out.

These two people are the black and white impermanence in the Xuanming Sect.

After Black and White Impermanence flew out of the coffin, he did not immediately rush towards the father and daughter, but landed in front of more than a dozen Xuanming Sect members.

With the appearance of black and white impermanence, the door of the restaurant was closed directly, and the windows on the second and third floors were also closed, and in the end, only the room where Li Ze and them were located was still open.

Seeing this scene, Li Ze couldn't help but shake his head, the impression of the Xuanming Sect in the hearts of ordinary people was really terrifying.

He is soft-hearted and can't bear to kill to pay for his life, but that doesn't mean he's the Virgin.

He won't do anything like pulling a knife to help him when the path is uneven, and he won't even roar.

What does it have to do with other people's business?

The same is true of Song Wentong, he is a proud person, although he is not very good with Zhu Wen.

But he wouldn't do anything to the ordinary members of the Xuanming Sect.

That would have knocked him down.

This is especially true after being exposed to another world.

He could pinch to death the dozen or so Xuanming Sect members below without care, but he couldn't deliberately kill them.

He was about to turn away, but a voice came to his ears.

"Lu Youzai, if you know each other, hand over the Longquan Sword, my brother and sister can spare your daughter after killing you. ”

Song Wentong looked down again and saw that Lu Youzai was indeed carrying a big sword wrapped in sackcloth behind his back.

His eyes flickered slightly, and he thought of a lot of things.

Imperial hegemony and immortality, he chose the latter before, and it will be the same if he chooses again.

Immortality is already within reach, and now the imperial hegemony is also in front of him.

You can't have both fish and bear's paws?

No, children can make multiple-choice questions, and he Song Wentong wants them all!

Turning his head to look at Li Ze, who was still looking below, he reached out and closed the window.

"Mingxin, it's not early, you have to go tomorrow, you can rest first. ”

After Song Wentong finished speaking, he didn't wait for Li Ze to answer, turned around and left the room.

Looking at the closed door, Li Ze also fell into deep thought.

There are no real fools in this world.
