Chapter 21: The Same Path
There is a cycle of good and evil, and life and death are mandated by heaven.
Dong Junqin accepted the formation and asked the last question: "Why didn't you say anything at first?"
This time, it was Ah Lu's turn to laugh angrily: "What does I have to do with you? But when we meet in Pingshui, it's still not very pleasant, and it's not very pleasant to talk about two points true, three points false, and five points not to break, this is human nature, right? Besides, let's comment on the theory, you and I have known everything about me since we met now, what about you? In addition to the fact that you are a doctor, your family is an imperial businessman, you are studying medicine in the Azure Realm, and you are brothers with Na Mu Baofeng, what else have you said?"
Dong Junqin blinked, and suddenly smiled: "My business, what do you want to know?"
Yes, Ah Lu's matter, if it weren't for Dong Junqin's forced questioning, she wouldn't have vomited so much. But Dong Junqin's matter, to be honest, every time if it wasn't for getting out, who would care about him. However, in the current situation of the two of them, it seems to be a bit of a loss if they don't ask.
So Ah Lu held back a question: "You are in Changyu, why do you have to give me a pulse?" Don't say it's because I fell, your doctor is benevolent, you have to make sure that I didn't fall and hurt me, the ghost believes it...... No, ghosts don't believe in it. ”
"Poof. Dong Junqin was poked and laughed at by this ghost's disbelief, "Yes, not just to determine if you fell and injured yourself." ”
This time, I changed Ah Lu to drink tea and listen to the play.
Dong Junqin said: "I have a female dependent in my family, who was adopted by my father. Because of some disputes, dozens of members of the family were slaughtered by traitors. Only she, who was young at the time, escaped by hiding her mother in a cupboard. But after witnessing the scene of a night of bloodbath, I fell into a heart disease. Later, he contracted lost soul. ”
"Lost soul?" This sick Aru had heard, "So her soul?"
"Lost soul is just a kind of appearance, and people who suffer from this disease look like they have lost their souls every day, but in fact, the three souls and seven spirits are complete, but they are not in place. Dong Junqin was worried when he mentioned this, "There are ten acupuncture points in the body corresponding to the three souls and seven spirits, and if the soul is not in the right position, it is equivalent to nothing." As a result, her daily energy is not good, and her health is getting worse and worse. On that day in Changyu, I accidentally saw you and noticed that your breath was very similar to hers. Later, when you dragged me to escape, I probed your pulse, which was different from hers, but it was the same. However, it is also the dying vein of the broken candle in the wind, and your words and deeds ...... He is full of energy when he speaks, and his strength is quite large, obviously in the prime of life. That's why I wanted to take a pulse formally to make sure I wasn't wrong. ”
What Ah Lu said to Dong Junqin could not be verified for the time being, but he didn't look like a bad person, so he believed him for seven points: "Then if you are not mistaken, what do you want to do to me?"
Dong Junqin shook his head: "I don't want to do anything to you, I just guess that you may have practiced some secret skills or taken some medicine, in short, I just want to invite you to Chongcaotang to mention the female dependent of my family to take a look, maybe her incurable disease has a turnaround." ”
It seems that he said it in the past: "But you yourself are a doctor, and you are also studying in the Azure Realm, you can't help the disease, and others can't help it, right?" And if she is not in good health, then why don't you take him to the Azure Realm to live, I heard that cultivation in the Azure Realm can absorb the essence of the sun and the moon and cure all diseases?"
Dong Junqin smiled bitterly: "I am indeed a doctor, and I am indeed from an immortal sect, but I am not an immortal after all." Besides, after the accident in her family back then, there were still murderers who slipped through the net and were not caught, so except for the belly of the family, my father and mother did not tell anyone about her existence. It wasn't until I was five years old that I went down to the Azure Realm and returned to Yanjiao for the first time that I knew that I had an extra sister-in-law. At that time, my master also diagnosed her. But the master couldn't find a cure except for relief. And take her to the Azure Realm...... Mu Baofeng told you that the identity of Chongcaotang, an imperial merchant, is a bit sensitive, right?"
Ah Lu nodded: "I don't know much, it's just a family rebellion, what kind of official eunuchs don't enter the rivers and lakes, and so on." ”
Dong Junqin said: "Yes, my sister-in-law was originally an official eunuch. ”
"That'...... And it was wiped out overnight?" Ah Lu was shocked, "Could it be that this is the legendary court battle?"
In this regard, Dong Junqin didn't say much, and sighed deeply.
"Ah, I've heard this kind of thing in the ghost market. Ah Lu seemed to remember a lot of "heard" and sighed.
But compared to this, Dong Junqin has been curious about what the ghost market is like since Fang Cai. I've only seen it in the legends of Shikai, and I've never seen it with my own eyes.
"Do you want to go to the ghost market? It's not impossible, I'll find a way to hide your popularity, and it should be fine. Ah Lu thought about it and thought that he should go now, "It just so happens that I want to bring his remnant soul back, so it is better to ......"
Dong Junqin refused: "Not now, I'm in a hurry to find my master." ”
Allu was not in a hurry: "Then how long will you come back?" I can wait for you here. Wait, how long have I been dizzy?"
"Just two or three hours. As for my master, he is missing, and I am not sure how long I will find him, or if anything will happen in the middle, but he will not linger for seven days at most. "If there is no news after seven days, it is pointless to stay in Huoshan, and Yanjiao will not be able to hide it for long.
Ah Lu pinched his fingers and calculated: "Seven days, okay." I'll be able to go back in 10 days. From here to the ghost market, three days is enough. Hey, by the way, are we still near Qianxi Village?"
Dong Junqin said: "No, this is Tianluo Town. ”
"Heavenly Camel Town?" Ah Lu thought lightly, then stood up with a pout, and said in horror, "You've already arrived at Camel Mountain?!" Out of Dongguan?!"
Dong Junqin nodded.
"You, you, you, how did you take me so far!" Ah Lu opened the window and saw that his eyes were full of white and swaying snow-capped mountains, and he really couldn't cry, "How can I go back so far! No, I won't wait for you, you will send me to the ghost market now!"
"Now?" Dong Junqin wondered, "Where is this ghost city?"
As far as Aru knows, there are two entrances to the ghost market. One is in Wushan outside the West Pass, and the other is in Luozhou in the southwest border pass. Ah Lu still remembers Dong Junqin's imperial sword, if it is the imperial sword, the entrance to Wushan is the closest, but the area of Wushan is the cloud valley, smoky, dense mountains and forests can cover the sky, the entrance to the ghost market there is difficult to find, once you get lost, you have to go around for several days, so Alyu can only go to Luozhou.
However, Dong Junqin did not agree: "From Tianluo Town to Luozhou, it almost crosses the entire Central Plains diagonally. Even it will take two days for Edgeworth, Miss Alu, I'm really in a hurry, so I can't delay it for another two days. ”
Ah Lu looked up to the sky, and sure enough, when he met Dong Junqin, he didn't have anything to worry about: "Then that...... Then how did you bring me here from Qianxi Village? I remember that Qianxi Village is more than a few hours away from here, and even if you fly, you will have to fly for half a day!"
"I rescued you with the Edgeworth. Dong Junqin thought about it for a moment and explained to her, "If the Imperial Sword Array can reach Luozhou in less than a day, but it takes a lot of spiritual power to go back and forth with the Imperial Sword Formation, and the master's life and death are uncertain, and I don't know the bad luck, I ......."
Although Dong Junqin thought that he had no obligation to send her to Luozhou, he looked at Ah Lu's gradually desperate eyes, and felt a trace of regret in his heart.
So he had an idea: "Miss Alu, since you can wait until ten days to return to the ghost market, why don't you go with me to find my master in the next few days." You see, the killer, you don't know where he came from, and I can't guarantee that he hasn't tracked us down at this moment. If two people are together, they will take care of each other. As for finding my master, even if you are unlucky, no matter what the result is in seven days, I will send you to Luozhou first. How?"
Ah Lu listened to Dong Junqin's proposal, and his heart was infinitely sad. For a moment now, she really wanted to abandon this body and quickly float back to the ghost city as a remnant.
However, on second thought, that inexplicable killer is indeed a danger. I can't beat him by myself, so I can run faster with Dong Junqin.
Dong Junqin saw Ah Lu hesitating, and said curiously: "Ah Lu girl, why are you in such a hurry to go back?"
Ah Lu said: "Cheng Qi's soul is in my body, and he must be sent back to the ghost market within ten days to let Yuan Lingsheng make up for the defects, otherwise he will not be able to cross the Nai River with his father and mother to be reincarnated." So...... Therefore, you must find your master and his old man as soon as possible! I don't want to destroy people's souls, cut off people's relatives, and damage my own yin and morality. ”
At the mention of Yin De, Ah Lu's whole person fell into anxiety. She walked up and down the house, her mouth breaking and muttering.
When Dong Junqin saw her like this, he couldn't help but feel that this female ghost was a little stupid, and he was a little insidious. However, the current situation, as originally hoped, is all going well.
In this way, Dong Junqin, who was doing well, started chasing the soul under the urging of Ah Lu, who was not going well, and the spirit line pointed to the depths of the camel mountain.
The area around the camel mountain is snowy all year round, and the towns near the mountain are also like winter all year round. To enter the camel mountain, Dong Junqin bought a mink coat for Ah Lu, so that she would not even freeze to the last breath.
However, Alu is half human and half ghost, and his five senses are dull. I only feel that the mink clothes are novel, and there is no sense of heat and cold.
Dong Junqin was helpless: "This mink coat is also a piece of armor." There are demons in the camel mountain, and the claws are sharp, so if you encounter a fight, you will not be injured too quickly. ”
"Demons?" That's not how Ah Lu heard about it, "Isn't the mountain god of Camel Mountain gone?
"Mountain gods?" Dong Junqin heard people from all walks of life say that Camel Mountain is a demon mountain, so there is no grass in the heavy snow all year round. When people enter the mountain, they are accidentally caught by monsters and have no way out.
But after thinking about it, the elder mentioned that everyone in the world said that there were demons in Camel Mountain, but no one had seen it with their own eyes. Bai Yuan had seen it, but he never admitted it, only saying that they were not mortal.
With such a comparison, Dong Junqin was puzzled. The master came here alone, could it be that the rumors of Camel Mountain really have another hidden meaning?
