Chapter 23: Catching Fast (1)

Lu Junsheng has been sitting quietly on the river beach alone, I don't know how long he has been sitting.

At noon, a person slowly appeared, but it was Yan Gudao with a big beard.

"You're not dead yet?"

Yan Gudao was taken aback when he saw Lu Junsheng, he originally thought that there would be no living people in the River Temple after one night.

When he got closer and saw Lu Junsheng's appearance, he shook his head again:

"Evil qi enters the body, and you won't live long. If you don't want to endanger the world after death, stay in this temple. When you die, I will burn your skin with tung oil and then expel the evil spirit. ”

Lu Junsheng didn't seem to hear Yan Gudao's words, he just muttered:

"All this...... What the hell is going on?"

Yan Gudao sighed and said:

"That zombie is the remnant of the Corpse God Dao, and it was injured by me five years ago and hid in Jiuquan Mountain, and this place ...... Located in the river bay, the corpses washed in the Xuan River are often piled up in the river bay, although I have been collecting corpses and burning corpses, but there are too many dead people recently, I can't be busy at all, and there are still some corpses whose souls are controlled by the zombies. ”

Lu Junsheng turned his head violently and glared at Yan Gudao:

"Then you're going to sit on the sidelines?"

Yan Gudao was not angry, it seemed that he saw that Lu Junsheng was a dying person, so he said patiently:

"The destruction of my Yan clan's temple has caused my inheritance power to continue to decline, and five years ago I was able to injure that zombie, but now I am no match for it at all, and even the ghosts it controls are helpless. I'm sorry, Mr. Lu. ”

Lu Junsheng pondered for a while, and then asked:

"Corpse God Dao...... The Power of Inheritance...... And what?"

Yan Gudao smiled:

"Master Lu, it's useless for you to know this. You can't survive tonight in your current state. It's better to take advantage of the present and hurry up to complete any unfulfilled wishes. ”

Lu Junsheng took a few deep breaths, and finally fell silent, returning to the original appearance of the walking dead.

Yan Gudao shook his head slightly, turned around and returned to the River Temple.

In the main hall, the ghost statue fell on the altar. Yan Gudao looked at the ghost statue, but his mood was even worse.

In this world, demons are rampant, wicked people are rampant, and good people have no good reward. The Yan clan didn't want to change this situation, but in the end, it fell short, not only were the clansmen almost wiped out, but even the temple was destroyed.

Yan Gudao sighed and sat quietly on the futon, he didn't plan to leave.

Lu Jun is about to die, and he is not the same.

He went into exile from the Chu State to the Xue State, and then came to Yangcheng to be a head catcher for a few years, and then came to this river temple to be a corpse collector. The inheritance power in his bloodline has been declining, and it won't be long before he is completely indistinguishable from ordinary people, and even ages faster than ordinary people.

In such a situation, Yan Gudao already knew that there was no point in fleeing again, so it was better to ...... Die right here.

"Could it be...... This is the fate of my Yan clan......"

He sighed deeply, and his hair turned a lot whiter.

"Knock knock knock!"

Suddenly, there was a knocking sound from the altar pedestal.

Yan Gudao trembled, raised his eyes and looked at the altar pedestal.

I saw that the ghost statue toppled on the altar pedestal was trembling slightly and quickly.

What's even more surprising is that there seems to be a faint brilliance in the subtle cracks on this clay statue.

Yan Gudao stood up abruptly and walked towards the clay statue incredulously:

"The situation is...... Lack of moon gods! Could it be ...... Have you been revived, and have confessed the Lord?"

Yan Gudao strode forward and smashed the clay statue with one palm.

The fragments of the clay statue scattered, and a jade piece shaped like a missing moon lay in it, exuding a soft and hazy luster.

Yan Gudao trembled excitedly, since he sealed the Missing Moon Divine Bi into the mud statue five years ago, he thought that he would never see such a scene again in his life, but it really happened!

"Who is that?

Yan Gudao hurriedly looked towards the Missing Moon Divine Bi.

I saw a person faintly appearing on the crystal jade.

And that person turned out to be Lu Junsheng!

"Is it him? That's right! Only a person with a pure and kind mind can make the Missing Moon Divine Bi recognize the Lord. Hahahahaha! The sky is not up to it, the fate of my Yan clan has finally been changed!"

Yan Gudao looked up to the sky and laughed, but there were tears in the corners of his eyes.

After laughing, Yan Gudao hurriedly wiped away his tears, and then grabbed the jade bi and ran quickly towards Lu Junsheng outside the temple.

..............................................................

Yangcheng, outside the Dongguo Gate.

Some time ago, the torrential rain finally stopped, and the sky finally cleared.

The riverside on the outskirts of the city after the rain is particularly beautiful. The people, who had been trapped at home for several days due to the torrential rain, finally seized the opportunity to go out of the city to breathe.

Jiang Yuan waved at the caravan entering the city:

"Thank you!

After leaving the River Temple, Jiang Yuan walked along the official road for a day, and then met Boss Cai's convoy into Yangcheng, and finally was able to take a hitchhike to Yangcheng.

At this time, Jiang Yuan stood outside the city, looking at the surrounding scene, it was his first time in Yangcheng.

The Xuan River is wide and meandering, flowing slowly in the northeast direction of Yangcheng.

The riverside carries a lot of willows, the weather is clear, the wind is warm, a bluestone path is built along the river embankment, and pedestrians can be seen everywhere on the path. The sparkling river is full of boats shuttling like clouds, and the prosperity of Yangcheng is inseparable from the contribution of the Xuan River.

The tall city gate towers over it, and a stone-paved road runs through it, and there are many convoys of passers-by shuttling back and forth.

The officers and men guarding the gate looked listless with their spears in their pestles, and they ignored most of the passers-by in the convoy, and occasionally woke up from sleepiness before they would make a temporary spot check.

Such a scene also shows that Yangcheng is in good order.

The people kept walking by Jiang Yuan's side, including young men and women in groups, delicate incense carts, and children holding colorful paper windmills. Even outside the city, there are many stalls, some selling sweets and herbal tea, some selling fruits and game, and some selling handicrafts.

Looking at all this, Jiang Yuan's mood couldn't help but improve:

"A new life will begin here. ”

As far as what he had seen and heard so far, Yangcheng was better than he had imagined. Here, I finally don't have to worry about being scared every day, and I am accompanied by blood demons.

Jiang Yuan was just about to walk towards the city gate, but suddenly he heard someone shouting behind him:

"Hey, who's that, stop!"

Jiang Yuan turned his head in surprise, but saw two catchers wearing soap suits and swords tied to their waists walking straight towards him.

"Are you calling me?" Jiang Yuan wasn't sure if they were calling him.

"It's not you, who else!" said one of the catchers viciously.

Another catcher looked around Jiang Yuan and said:

"Boy, you're very raw, from the countryside?"

Jiang Yuan didn't expect that he hadn't even entered Yangcheng yet, and he would carry two catchers to entangle. In his memory, Xue Guo's control over the government was not very strong, but he still had no experience in how to deal with people in the public family.

What surprised him even more was that the two catchers seemed to see that he was not a local.

"Speak!" said one of the catchers viciously, "who is your name, where is your family, and what are you doing in Yangcheng?"

Another catcher shook the chain hanging from his waist:

"Don't say it now, do I want to take you back to the yamen to say!"

Jiang Yuan smiled, and was about to speak, but suddenly saw a catcher coming over, and he still knew someone, it was Wang Li. I didn't expect to see him for two or three days, and he was already able to walk.

Wang Li was patrolling nearby, and when he saw his colleagues interrogating passers-by, he originally wanted to come over to cooperate. But when he saw the object of interrogation, he was stunned again:

"Well...... Eun Gong!"

After being surprised, Wang Li knelt down in front of Jiang Yuan in the stunned eyes of the two catchers, lowered his head and clenched his fists, and said:

"Engong, Wang Li...... Shame!"

At this moment, the two catchers couldn't help but start to look at Jiang Yuanlai seriously, not knowing what the identity of this man who looked like a weak scholar actually made Wang Li kneel down to him in front of everyone.

Jiang Yuan naturally knew what Wang Li meant by being ashamed, and the three of them knew that there was something wrong with the river temple, but instead of reminding themselves, they drove the carriage and left by themselves.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yuan was inevitably a little annoyed in his heart.

After all, the river temple was for his family to go by themselves, and when they went, they left it and fled by themselves when they were in danger. I saved their lives!

Jiang Yuan would not kill his whole family because of this, he was not so mad.

But...... This kind of person, although Jiang Yuan will not save them in the future, it doesn't hurt to use it for now......

So Jiang Yuan laughed, then helped Wang Li up and said:

"Where, I didn't pay attention to that matter for a long time. ”

Although Wang Li was skeptical, he was still extremely grateful when he heard Jiang Yuan say this:

"Engong, not only did you save our family, but regardless of the previous suspicions, I Wang Li really don't know what to say. In the future, wherever there is a need for Wang Li, I will be on call, and I am willing to serve dogs and horses!"

Jiang Yuan waited for this sentence, he said:

"Speaking of which...... I really need Brother Wang's help with something. ”
