Chapter 168: The road is uneven
When the two returned to the Penglai Inn again and it was past night, the original two of them immediately broke out of the window when they heard the strange sound, and the noise was not small, and naturally the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper woke up, but the two of them were afraid in their hearts, and they didn't dare to make a sound, so they only hid inside and secretly watched every move outside.
After another moment, the shopkeeper saw that the two of them were no different, but the cry of the fierce ghost that drifted in the hidden village every night stopped abruptly, and secretly thought: "Could it be that these two people are really strange people in the world, and they have subdued the evil ghost who asked for people's lives?" The second child of this shop is a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child, timid by nature, and extremely reverent in the theory of ghosts and gods.
"Rubbish!" the shopkeeper scolded in a low voice, and then tiptoed out of the door, but he also stood far away, not daring to approach. The shopkeeper was scolded by the shopkeeper, and when he saw the shopkeeper open the door and walked out, he had to follow behind.
The shopkeeper slowly approached, his face turned pale, and beads of sweat continued to ooze from his forehead, making him keep waving his sleeves to wipe them. "Two ...... Two...... Bit...... Guest...... Guest....... Officer, you ....... You....... Guys...... Return....... Are you back?" the shopkeeper stammered.
Zhou Changfeng said "um", he didn't care, he only communicated with the two of them, as if the other party was still unfinished with one enemy and two enemies.
Seeing that the two of them were talking and laughing freely, no different from when they entered the store, the shopkeeper calmed down a little and asked, "Guest...... Guest...... Officer, you ...... You...... Guys...... Just ....... Just now...... Out...... Not...... Not...... Encounter...... What the...... Is it strange?" the shopkeeper originally wanted to ask him if the two of them had encountered ghosts when they went out, but he felt very abrupt, so he simply knocked on the side and said euphemistically.
Wu Yi said with a smile: "The shopkeeper wants to ask the crying ghost, right? It was beaten away by the two of us, and it will never come out to bring disaster to the village from now on!" This time, the two evils were severely frustrated by no memory, and the injuries were serious, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to recover in a short time, and I think that they will not be able to come out to do evil for a long time, which is a joy for the villagers of Hidden Village.
After hearing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly came to the window, looked out through the damaged window, but saw that the surroundings were peaceful, the moon was like water, the shadows of the trees were mottled, where there was still a little gloomy feeling, if the usual time to look out of the window, the ghost shadows were heavy, the yin wind was blowing, and the wails came and went, which made people shudder.
The shopkeeper was overjoyed, turned around and bowed: "The little one has eyes and no beads, I don't know that the Heavenly Master is coming, and I ask for forgiveness, now the two Heavenly Masters have eliminated the evil ghosts for our hidden village is really the blessing of our hidden village, please accept the small one." "For the matter of the ghosts in the hidden village, the villagers have also invited a lot of heavenly masters and Taoists to enter the village to subdue demons and eliminate monsters, but the effect is very small, those heavenly masters and Taoists either died unexpectedly, or became crazy, after a long time, even if the bounty is high, no one dares to enter the village to surrender demons.
Wuyi hurriedly picked up the shopkeeper, told him what happened tonight, and also told him that it was not some powerful ghosts and demons, but actually a person with strong martial arts who used his power to commit murder and create ghosts. But the shopkeeper was born in the hidden village, which is located in a remote area, the folk customs are simple, and naturally I don't know what martial arts masters there are, but I only believe that it is the two of them who are in the way of heaven and subdue the evil ghost, and no matter how Wuyi justifies it, it will not help.
On the second day, the news of the Heavenly Master's subduing of the powerful ghosts immediately spread throughout the entire Hidden Village, and the villagers came to pay their respects one after another, leaving the water around the Penglai Inn. In order to thank the two for their kindness, the shopkeeper exempted the two of them from eating and living in the inn, and ordered Xiao Er to cut fat chicken and beef, with two jars of wine for the two to enjoy on the way, and more importantly, the shopkeeper got two fierce horses from nowhere, which helped the two of them a lot.
Wuyi and Zhou Changfeng finally got rid of the enthusiastic villagers, rode two fierce horses, and left the hidden village. Xiaoyao Villa is located in Shaanxi, and the two are at the junction of Henan and Hebei at this moment, so the two decided to go to the grief first, enter the Hebei area, explore the whereabouts of the dragon slaying knife, and then go all the way to the west, to Xiaoyao Villa, this plan is also to give up the distance and seek the near, which is a compromise method.
The smoke and dust were flying, the horses were shaking the sky, two fast horses were galloping on the official road, and a young man and a middle-aged Confucian were riding on horseback, it was Zhang Wuyi and Zhou Changfeng. The two of them rode their horses and whipped, and only ran for less than half a day before entering the territory of Songshan, Hebei.
After entering the territory of Songshan, the two avoided the official road, changed to take the sheep intestine path, passed a pavilion, the two turned over and dismounted, tied the horse to the big apricot tree on the side, and then went straight to the pavilion to rest for a while. The two opened their baggage, took out the fat chicken wine, and ate the steamed buns in the gazebo.
Zhang Wuyi looked around, but saw that the branches were luxuriant, the old trees were horizontal, and the scenery in the valley was a different scene, and asked, "Uncle Zhou, this is the territory of Songshan Mountain, Hebei?"
Zhou Changfeng took a sip of wine and replied, "Not bad." Then he thought for a while and said earnestly: "Brother Wuyi, this Hebei has always promoted martial arts, which can be described as a great sheng, among which there are many famous factions, and there are countless martial arts masters, the most famous ones are Shaolin, the Songshan faction in the Wuyue Sword Sect, the Hengshan faction, and the Sun and Moon God Sect, which is known as the Demon Sect!"
Zhang Wuyi was puzzled after hearing this, and said strangely: "Uncle Zhou, why do you call the Sun and Moon God Sect a demon sect?"
Zhou Changfeng sighed and said: "Brother Wuyi, you have lived in a deep valley for a long time, and your heart is pure, how do you know the cruelty in this Jianghu martial arts, as the so-called place where there are people is the rivers and lakes, where there are rivers and lakes, there will be bloodshed and killing, or because of fame, or because of profit, or because of the different styles of the two sides, this is the reason why the Sun and Moon God Sect is called the Demon Sect!"
Zhang Wuyi scratched his head and wondered, "What does this mean?"
Zhou Changfeng said: "The Sun Moon Divine Sect has always done its own thing, with a strange style, ruthless shots, often ignoring the rules of the rivers and lakes, and only acting on will, which is very different from the righteous martial arts of the rivers and lakes, so it has been hostile to the righteous people, and it is called the Demon Sect!"
Zhang Wuyi said angrily: "Just because of its different styles, it is called a demon sect, an alien, which is too far-fetched!"
Zhou Changfeng smiled bitterly and sighed: "This is the rivers and lakes, people can't help but live in the rivers and lakes, there is no memory, if you encounter people in the Demon Sect in the future, it is better to stay away, so as not to burn yourself!"
Wu Yi didn't think about it, and insisted: "Uncle Zhou, grandpa often taught us that if people don't offend me, I won't offend people, if people offend me, I will pay back twice, so why should I care about it as a righteous path and a demon sect?"
Zhou Changfeng smiled after hearing this, didn't say anything more, and only ripped off a chicken leg and handed it to Wu Yi.
The two of them ate for a while, and were drinking up, when they suddenly heard the sound of footsteps, from far and near, panicked, as if they were desperately running away, and less than half a cup of tea was intervened, and another sound of footsteps sounded, chaotic, Titi stepped forward, and faintly heard the sound of "chasing! He can't run far". Wu Yi's ears were extremely strong, and he could hear early in the morning that a group of people with swords were chasing an unarmed man thirty zhang away, and that man was disordered in his internal breath, and his steps were frivolous, and he was obviously suffering extremely serious internal injuries, and he was afraid that he would be caught up by them in a few moments. Although Zhou Changfeng couldn't tell it so clearly, he could also hear that someone was chasing him not far away, rushing towards the pavilion.
"Uncle Zhou, we ......."
Zhou Changfeng interrupted: "Wait and see!"
After another moment, he saw a person rushing out of the forest on the right side of the pavilion, the man was seven feet long, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and he was a big man, but at this time his hair was messy, his clothes were ragged, and his whole body was covered with bloodstains. The ragged man was already weak, and he was tired of running for his life all the way, and he had already run out of oil and lamps, so how could he still have the strength to dodge.
"Puff puff" three times, three iron meteors hit the man's legs and waist respectively, and then there was a muffled "bang", and the ragged man fell to the ground with a bang, spewing out a mouthful of bloody arrows.
Wu Yi saw that he was not angry in his heart, and secretly thought: "This man is obviously tired and tired, how can he still hurt people with secret arrows? It's really not the husband's doing" But the current situation is unknown, although Wu Yi is angry, it is not easy to make a move.
As soon as the ragged man fell to the ground, another twenty people rushed out of the woods, but seeing that each of them was armed with swords and axes, and their silver clothes were shining, they also rushed towards the pavilion.
Seeing this, the man hurriedly struggled to get up, but the old injury had not healed, and he added appreciation, and the two iron meteors hit his knees again, making him unable to stand up, in a hurry, he simply got up on the ground, and shouted while crawling towards Zhang, Zhou Erren: "Quick, save me!"
After all, Wu Yi is a newcomer, and he can't see such a miserable appearance, so he didn't wait for Zhou Changfeng to speak, and he went to the man's side with a "ho" and helped him up.
"Puff puff" three times, three iron meteors hit the man's legs and waist respectively, and then there was a muffled "bang", and the ragged man fell to the ground with a bang, spewing out a mouthful of bloody arrows.
