Volume 1 Wen Dao Qianqing Chapter 36 Jing'an
Qianqing Mountain, thousands of miles away from Tianji Gate.
On the land covered with yellow sand, there are only a few lonely ghost poplars, growing ruggedly. The ghost poplar tree grows in only one place, and when people see the ghost poplar, they know that they have arrived in that place.
This place is Jing'an City, which is also known as a ghost town. Since the history records of the previous dynasties, the ghost city has been uninhabited, but later there were court prisoners and prisoners who were exiled here, and there were gradually traces of people. However, due to the extremely harsh living environment of the local area and the close proximity to the swampy land, there are often fierce beasts and monsters, so it has developed so far, and there are only four or five families in the city.
A man dressed in black and wearing a silver mask was escorted by several officials to appear in Jing'an City. And because of this, several families in the city were alarmed, after all, the city had not been filled with prisoners for many years.
"Let's hurry up......" the official said with an impatient and cautious expression.
"Yes, master, you go quickly, let's get to the place...... Our brothers are also good friends and have a full meal. A thin, black-faced man with a scruffy beard said, hunched over.
In addition, there was an official who followed behind, and he also showed his face, and it seemed that he had suffered a lot along the way. On the other hand, the man in black did not say a word, ignoring the urging and caution of several officials, only one of them stood still slowly, the silver mask covering his face, and he didn't know what his expression was or what he was thinking.
"Alas......" the white-faced official sighed.
"Big brother, don't talk nonsense with him, otherwise we will end up with him, anyway, ......" A tall man, although he has a dish on his face, but his voice is like a bell, and he is obviously a practitioner.
"Shut up!" the two officials whispered at the same time. A voice came from the one who was called Big Brother, and a voice came from the thin man with a black face.
"Big brother, second brother......" The tall official wanted to speak again.
"Fourth brother, have you forgotten how your third brother died?" the thin man with a black face pulled over the official who was called the fourth brother and whispered.
The tall official's body was shocked, and he suddenly remembered something, and his body trembled like chaff.
"He's not a man, he's not a man, he's a devil, he's a devil!" said the tall official, pointing to the man in black with a silver mask, and retreated, but he was unsteady and slumped on the ground.
"Alas......" The person called the eldest brother saw everything in his eyes and wanted to say something, but after a while, he could only sigh faintly.
"Big brother, what should I do?" asked the thin, black-faced man.
"What can I do? If this master doesn't leave, what can we do......"
So, the four of them sat quietly in the silent Jing'an City.
"Master, master......" A person who looked like a housekeeper hurriedly ran into the main hall and shouted to the middle-aged man sitting on the top with the fragrance of tea.
"Laifu, what's the matter, panicked, didn't I tell you that I wasn't allowed to disturb me when I was using tea!
"Ouch, sir, is it Laifu, I have something to report to you!" said the butler Laifu eagerly.
"Alright, alright, when I'm done drinking this tea, you wait next to you. The middle-aged man unhurriedly stopped the butler who was about to speak, and he slowly sipped the tea and ignored it.
After a while, the middle-aged man finished tasting a cup of tea, rinsed his mouth, wiped his mouth with a silk scarf, and waved his hand to the housekeeper on the side.
"Master, the Song family in the city has just sent a letter to say that four people have entered Jing'an City. The housekeeper got the middle-aged man's signal and hurriedly said.
"What are the four of you doing? If it's a caravan, just let Fourth Brother Song greet you and do something, you don't need to inform me." The middle-aged man made another cup of tea unhurriedly.
"No, master, the people from the Song family said that three officials and a man in black entered the city, and now they are sitting on the street in the city, I don't know what happened, Song Siye of Songjiazhuang wants you to go over. Seeing that the middle-aged man didn't care, the housekeeper hurriedly explained.
"Oh, the officer, but there's a new death row inmate? The middle-aged man took a sip of tea, gently put down the teacup, and said, "You go and send a letter to Song Si first, saying that I will be there later." ”
"Yes, sir. The butler agreed, and hurried out.
"This rifle is still so frizzy. It's hard to make a big deal. Hmph!" the middle-aged man instantly crushed the teacup, and the teacup turned into powder in an instant.
"Master, master, it's not good, it's not good!" another panicked voice came from outside the house.
The middle-aged man was furious: "What's wrong with the master, the master is good!"
"The lord forgives the sin, the lord spares his life. Miss...... Miss, she ......, "the man who looks like a family member said breathlessly.
"What's wrong with Miss?!" the middle-aged man's expression also became nervous. "Speak quickly!"
"Miss, she...... She rode away on your horse, and said she would go to the swamp to get her sister back!" The housekeeper finally spoke.
"What! nonsense...... What are you still doing in a daze, go and find it, if you don't get the young lady back, don't want your little life!" the middle-aged man roared.
The whole hall was buzzing, and the family crawled out of the main hall, and they hurried to find the young lady who ran away from home.
"Wait, if she insists on going into the swamp, tell her that she can find her sister, but her sister is not in the swamp. ”
"Yes, sir. The person who looked like a family member hurriedly left the Li family's compound.
"Ming'er, don't let anything happen to you, otherwise, I'll ......," the middle-aged man muttered to himself, and after a while, his expression also became depressed.
"Let's go to Song's house first, this matter is by no means accidental! But no matter who wants to harm my daughter, I, Li Mo, will never let him go! It seems that if I don't make a move, too many people can't remember me......"
The middle-aged man raised his head again, his face was already solemn, and his expression was cold, as if he could cut people's throats.
"Sigh Rhythm ......" A brown-gray steed was tightened, and its front hooves stepped rhythmically in the air a few times, and landed steadily on the ground.
"Dusty, what's wrong? Why did you run all the way from just now, did something happen?" said a woman in a tight outfit, touching the horse's neck and whispering.
"Sigh the ......" The horse called Dusty made a sound, and then snorted and fell silent.
"I heard my father say that this horse has spirituality, isn't there any danger chasing me?" the pretty woman's hand stroked the horse's mane, thinking to herself.
The woman looked back at Jing'an City in the distance, a lonely city, faintly hidden in the rolling yellow sand. She went to play with the Song sisters early this morning, but unexpectedly heard the whereabouts of her sister, it turned out that her sister was not dead, but had gone to the swamp land a year, and there was no news and disappeared.
"Daddy must be very sad and have to let me out. Don't worry, Daddy, I'll definitely bring my sister out safely. The pretty woman in the power suit muttered in a low voice.
Then she turned her head, tapped the reins sharply, and exclaimed, "Ride!" but the horse only moved its nose, and did not move half a step forward.
"Dust, what's wrong with you? Go, don't you want to save my sister, she always gives you something to eat!" the pretty woman patted the horse's head as if she were coaxing a child. But the horse did not appreciate it at all, and did not take a step forward.
"You! Toast and don't eat and drink! I'm not as understanding as my sister, and I have a good personality...... "Let's say, the pretty woman turned over and dismounted, took out a soft whip from behind, and whipped it the horse's belly, and the horse was in pain, so she "sighed" and circled in circles, still refusing to move forward or take half a step back.
"You...... Forget it, since you are so afraid of death, I don't care about you, you go back to report to my father, just say, just say that I went to the swamp. Hmph, I didn't expect you to be so greedy for life and afraid of death, and when I go back, I won't feed you anything delicious. The woman was angry and chattered for a while.
With that, the woman strode towards the swamp, but the horse, who was called dusty, opened his mouth and bit the pretty woman's clothes, and dragged the woman to the death, preventing her from advancing a bite.
"Hey, you horse, if you don't go, and you won't let me go, then who will save my sister? Come on, it's okay in normal times, but it's too late for them to avoid this kind of thing! So, dusty, good horses, you can loosen your mouth, and when I get my sister back, we will buy you a lot of delicious food, how about it?" the woman said softly, stroking the dust.
I also had no choice but to do it.
"Miss, Miss...... The master has something to say to me, bring ...... Brought to you. Miss, Miss, ouch!" The family was so nervous that he fell off his horse by accident.
When the pretty woman saw this, her heart went down, and she exerted her strength violently, and the dust was in pain, so she let go of her mouth, and the woman took the opportunity to flee and rushed into the swamp.
After screaming for a while, he also ran to the swamp, leaving only a stunned and stunned family.
"Miss, I'...... I just said that the master has something to bring to you, you are in, how can you go back and explain to the little one!"
The family sat on the ground, weeping and wailing as if they were a deceased relative.
After a while, the family regained his senses, and he stood up, as if he had made a great determination, and saw him step by step, trembling, and walking towards the swamp.
"Zheng" There was a muffled sound, and the family saw a cracked flail in front of him, he was startled, and subconsciously looked around, only to see a black-clothed and silver-faced man in the sky, who was flying low to the swamp land at a rapid pace.
"This is a dangerous place, retreat quickly!" a low shout followed.
Jia Ding looked at the sky blankly, muttering to himself: "It's an immortal, it's an immortal, it's an immortal......", as he spoke, he fell to the ground and kept kowtowing.
