Chapter 8 The waves chase the fragrant dust, and the branches of the acacia are lightly folded
Just when the spirit monster broke through the water and began to spray the mist, Xing Yan did not hesitate any longer, waved his hand and tried his best to cast the Dragon Palace Secret Spell Ice Heart Knot, which instantly froze the spring waves under the demon spirit's feet. Almost at the same time, two brilliant moon wheels flew out one after another from his Yaoguang Divine Sword, blasting towards the monster like a lightning bolt.
And the monster, who was concentrating on spraying the mist, suddenly felt a chill in his heart, and the waves that had been surging under his feet suddenly became cold to the bone. When enlightenment is not good, there are only two majestic light wheels in the consciousness, which are rushing towards oneself.
As a result, the whole of this Peng Mansion suddenly heard a huge miserable howl - it was the two flying moon streamer slashes that could be hit by the spirit monster that was in trouble. And his howl was like a cow, not like a human voice, and like a giant chime, it shook so much that his heart trembled.
Shocked by this howl, the people in Peng's mansion, who were already a little groggy, were all awakened immediately.
Seeing that the blow was successful, Xingyan didn't dare to hesitate, and quickly shot out two streamers. This time, the spirit monster was a little prepared, and saw that his original vague figure suddenly faded slightly, and then the two dazzling flying moonlight struck the rockery behind him twice.
Seeing this situation, Xingyan hurriedly jumped out with his sword, and also roared, flying towards this strange-shaped monster, intending to use his free Taihua Dao power to fight with him at close range-
At this moment just now, it can be said that the wind and clouds have changed abruptly, and between the lightning and the stone and fire, two or three rounds have passed. In this emergency situation, the boy could not be allowed to think about it anymore, so he instinctively used his best tricks.
And at this moment, the two daughters of Qiong Wei Xueyi, who were waiting not far from the courtyard, heard this strange howl, and hurriedly dodged in, each holding a weapon, and rushed towards the spirit monster and body like a wave shadow with the hall master.
Seeing the situation of the three of them, the demon was not shocked but angry. I saw that his figure suddenly skyrocketed, and he raised his head and snorted at the sky, as if he was going to fight with all his strength against these uninvited guests.
It's just that what makes the young man who was still alert during the fluttering process strange is that the domineering spirit in front of him, after being angry, looked around a little, and it seemed to be a little flustered there.
"Hah! Isn't this monster as experienced in facing the enemy as I am?!
Seeing that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it, the boy hurried to gallop without touching the ground, and in a moment he was near, and when he had four or five paces to go, he raised his sword and slashed at the monster's head!
"Cluck!"
Hearing a loud noise, Yaoguang, who had almost become one with a sword, slammed his head into the rockery!
"Huh?!"
The boy was shocked when he missed the blow, and hurriedly returned to his sword to protect himself, and his feet were bluestone, and he suddenly jumped to the side to avoid the slam that might follow.
Unexpectedly, when he turned around sharply to look again, he found that the spring garden he had rushed over just now was already surging again, and the huge demon just now was no longer visible......
"Brother, where did the monster go?
Xiao Qiongwei, who flew to arrive, saw that the monster suddenly disappeared after her brother rushed away, so she asked strangely. Hearing her ask, the young man also replied with a half bewilderment:
"Qiong Wei, this monster has indeed escaped into the water. But...... It looked like he was going to fight with us just now, why did he suddenly run away?"
Seeing that Xingyan was puzzled, Xiao Qiongwei felt that this was normal, so she counted her fingers and explained to him:
"Brother, there's only one person in that bad monster! There are three of us here, he was scared when he saw it, so he quickly fled~"
β...... Really?"
At this moment, Peng Xiangpu and Peng County, who were alarmed by the loud noise, also ordered the sturdy families in the mansion and rushed into the courtyard with their own weapons. More than a dozen lanterns and torches shine brightly, and the flowing water garden suddenly shines as bright as day.
Seeing the owner of the house coming, Xingyan hurriedly stepped forward and briefly told him what had just happened. Seeing that several of him were all fine, Peng Xiangpu was also relieved. After listening to the statement, he stepped forward and went to the side of the rockery of the spring garden to take a closer look. At this time, three or four family members had already stepped forward, holding lanterns high, illuminating the place where the old man was inspecting extremely brightly.
Seeing Peng Xiangong doing this, Hall Master Zhang was a little embarrassed, and said apologetically:
"Gong Peng, I'm really sorry! I made a sudden move in a hurry just now, and I didn't think about it, and I damaged the scenery of your mansion......"
It turned out that it was only then that he realized that half of the rockery behind the monster just now had collapsed, and the powder wall not far behind it had also broken a big hole, which was faintly leaking into the scenery outside the wall. Needless to say, this rock-collapsed and bad wall should be a masterpiece of his own flying moon streamer.
After seeing Peng County's words, he looked at the damaged part of the rockery more and more, and the young man complained in his heart:
"It's broken, it's broken! It's the same as before, the demon hasn't been removed, but the scenery in people's homes has been damaged!"
"Alas, when I practiced this Flying Moon Streamer in the mountains before, I didn't know where it flew to, but I didn't think that these pieces of brilliance were no different from crossbow stonesββ this rockery in Duke Peng's mansion must be very precious, right?"
When Xingyan was up and down in his heart, he suddenly heard the county prince of Napeng turn around and say:
"Have you ever been injured?"
β...... None of them seem to be hurt. Thank you Peng Gong for your concern. β
"Then the virtuous nephew, come and take a look, this blood must be left by the demon. β
"Blood?"
Hearing this, Xingyan hurriedly stepped forward, and under the guidance of Peng Xiangpu, he looked towards the springery rockery. I saw that the broken rocks were sprinkled with specks of blood.
"It seems that the monster is still injured by my light slash. And this blood color is really different from ordinary people!"
It turned out that the blood in front of the young man's eyes seemed to be no different from ordinary people at first glance. But if you look closely, you will find that there is a faint glimmer of golden light in this bright red blood. Seeing this, Xingyan felt a little strange in his heart:
"Strange thing, I once heard Daoist Ming say that the strange blood color in this world is strange, but he doesn't seem to mention anything that can be golden. β
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard an exclamation of "oops". In a blink of an eye, it turned out that Miss Runlan was also alarmed, and she came to the front in a neatly dressed manner, and saw the shocking blood.
Seeing his daughter coming, Peng Xiangpu greeted:
"Runlan, you've come just in time. If it weren't for him, maybe you would have been poisoned by demons tonight. β
Hearing what her father said, Miss Peng blessed Xingyan on the spot and whispered:
The little woman thanked the aisler for his kindness. β
"Don't dare, don't dare!"
Xingyan hurriedly dodged and returned the salute.
However, although she thanked her, she could see that Miss Runlan was still a little reluctant between her words. Come to think of it, it should be her father who rashly proposed marriage two years ago, and this heart knot has not been completely untied.
Seeing his daughter's reluctant appearance, Peng Xiangpu suddenly became a little angry, and snorted heavily in his nose.
Seeing this situation, Xingyan quickly changed the topic and said:
"I have talked to Gong Peng, I fought with that monster tonight, and found that he was really unusual and strange, and he seemed to have magical powers between advance and retreat. β
"And this demon is very decisive, and it is by no means easy to match. I don't think he'll stop there, I'm afraid he'll come back. β
Hearing him say this, Peng Xiangpu looked at the bloodstains in front of him, and then looked at the hole that was shot out by the young Taoist priest in the distance, then sighed, turned to the young man and said:
"Wake up and talk about the virtuous nephew, I wonder if I can go to the study alone with the old man?"
"Of course. Peng Gong please. β
So Xingyan waved away Xiao Qiongwei, who wanted to go with him, and followed behind Peng Xiangong and went to his study.
When I entered the study, I didn't wait for him to speak, but I heard Peng Xiangpu split:
"Nephew Zhang Xian, what do you think about the matter of Xu Qin?"
β......β
I thought that Peng County Gong summoned him to talk to him about the strange things in the house, but he didn't think that this was the case! At that time, he was stunned and didn't know how to answer for a while.
After a while, he said in the expectant gaze of the elder opposite:
"The county is good, and the kid naturally understands it. Just ......"
"Just what?"
"It's just Miss Peng that she's both good-looking, I'm afraid I can't climb high. Besides, Miss must have been unintentional in this matter, right? I really don't dare force her to ......."
Hearing him say this, he saw Peng County Gong blowing his beard and glaring angrily:
"She dares! Virtuous nephew, have you never heard of it? I asked her to marry, how dare she not marry!"
Hearing this, Xingyan still wanted to argue a sentence or two, but Peng Xiangpu waved his hand and said:
"As for this 'Gao Pan', the virtuous nephew is not too humble. So far, the old man has read countless people, and his reasoning and talent are really not comparable to ordinary Taoists. Tonight, I saw that your mana was strong, and you actually repelled the demon in one fell swoop-according to the old man, it was not the awakening words of Gao Pan, but the little girl who climbed the dragon and attached it!"
After that, Peng Xiangpu softened his tone and talked eloquently:
"Although the old man is an official eunuch, the virtuous nephew should not hesitate to deal with it. Earlier, I had vaguely heard that among your Taoist sects, there was a Zhongsan doctor who was canonized by the imperial court. In my opinion, as long as it takes some time, it will not be difficult for the virtuous nephew to win this honor. β
β......β
Seeing the young man in front of him, with a strange expression, Peng Gong hurriedly continued to explain:
"It's a bit difficult, but it's not just a matter of air. Don't hide it from my nephew, my Peng family lintel is the family of Qinchuan in the north, and among her uncles and uncles, there are not a few people who are officials and eunuchs. Even Runlan's eldest brother is now also traveling to Yangzhou. If the virtuous nephew and the little daughter get married, relying on their own talents and Taoist skills, and then my Peng family will use some strength in the court to endure for more than ten years, then the matter of conferring officials and knights is not unpredictable!"
When Peng Xiangpu said this, he was proud. For him, saying this, on the one hand, was to comfort his son-in-law, and on the other hand, he also informed his family background by the way, so that the young man in front of him knew that his Peng family was not an idle person. In this way, I am afraid that this marriage will be more successful.
After saying this, Peng County, who was in a hurry to marry for some reason, saw that the young man in front of him was still a little undecided, so he sacrificed the last killer move. I saw him say in a mysterious voice:
"Do you know that your marriage to your little girl is actually the will of heaven!"
"Providence?"
When he heard this, he was a little confused.
Seeing his expression shaken, Peng Xiangpu was overjoyed, and finally felt his veins; it turned out that the cultivators in this world really cared the most about the will of heaven. So, seeing that he had settled down, he said unhurriedly:
"Actually, just before Zhang Xian's nephew came to my house, the little girl also counted a few trigrams on the street. β
"Oh, what's the hexagram?"
Xingyan asked in his mouth, but he thought in his heart that this Peng County Duke knew his daughter's actions well.
"Don't hide it from the virtuous nephew, the little girl asks for three trigrams. The first hexagram is called 'Mandarin Ducks Fly Separately', the second hexagram is 'No Ji Tailai', and the third hexagram is 'Meet a noble'. β
"Well, these three trigrams look like they're not bad. Then I don't know what to do with these hexagrams?"
"Virtuous nephew, this 'mandarin duck flying separately' naturally refers to you and the little girl, at first, because of this monster, the marriage will not be harmonious. 'No Ji Tailai', that is, things will take a turn for the better, and it should be tonight's virtuous nephew to exert ** power to repel evil demons. This last hexagram 'you have to meet a nobleman', of course, means that the little girl can serve the king as her husband in the future - don't you hear the sage say?' The king is the minister, and the husband is the wife', this husband is naturally a noble person for his wife!"
β......β
Tonight, in the study, I split my head and covered my face, and I have never encountered it. Listening to Peng Xiangpu's diligent persuasion, the young man's mind was a little dizzy, and in the end, he only felt that his marriage to this Miss Peng family should be natural and humane, which is really a great thing.
Just when the young man was forced by Peng Xiangpu's words, his mind was full of confusion, but he suddenly saw Peng County, who was originally full of momentum, in a moment when he was stunned, as if he could no longer support it, his whole body relaxed, and he only trembled and said sadly:
"Well, I can't hide it. Zhang Daochang, the little girl didn't dare to expect to be included in the main room. As long as you can take it in and let the demon retreat, she can be a concubine and a maid. In the future, she will be the ...... of Miss Kou and Miss Qiong Wei."
"Woo?!"
The young man who was not surprised opened his mouth to speak, and saw that the originally proud lord of a county, Lord Peng Xiangpu Peng, was already in tears. In the midst of a little tears, the old man told the young man with a sad voice that he had never heard before!
It turned out that the child he mentioned a few days ago suddenly fell asleep in the middle of the night half a month ago, and heard a strange sound from somewhere in the house, and ran to listen to the old lady after dawn. Unlike his wife, who only cared about being frightened after hearing this, Peng Xiangpu waved the little guy away indifferently when he heard it, only saying that there was something strange in the house, and asked the servants and maids in the house to be more careful.
However, just after a day or two, when he found a vacant place, Peng Gong found an excuse, called the messenger boy to no one, and carefully inquired about the situation that night. Under this question, there is another result. Although this half-grown child was indeed ignorant after waking up in shock, and he was confused about the truth when he made his statements, what kind of person was Peng Gong? He has been an official for more than ten years and has handled countless cases, both large and small, and he is too familiar with the fact of this torture and inducement to answer questions. After some interrogation, Peng Xiangpu's heart was half cold:
The direction of the strange sound seems to be the direction of the boudoir of the beloved daughter Runlan, and the strange sound that seems to be moaning, Peng Xiangpu, who has been married for more than 20 years, does not know what kind of sound it is!
So this torture at that time, coupled with the subsequent attention and observation of his daughter's posture, made Peng Xiangong, who was strong in his life, fall into the 39 ice cave-
The beloved daughter who has been carefully taught and arched like a pearl in the palm of her hand is afraid that she has already been polluted by the powerful demon!
Speaking of this vaguely, how could the thoughtful young man not hear his voice? Looking at the lord of a county in front of him, who seemed to be more than ten years old and in tears, he asked cautiously:
"That'...... Miss Peng, does she know herself?"
"Every time the demon comes, the fog is cast, Lan'er, I'm afraid she still doesn't know. β
"Alas~ Wronged! Wronged! Now that I think about it, this is all the evil fruit planted by my Peng Xiangpu in my previous life, and I lost my merit in this life, so I was retributed by God like this! The recent water in the Dragon King Temple is a warning from heaven to me!"
When Peng Xiangong said this, he was heartbroken.
Seeing the loving father in front of him, sad after losing the last bit of self-esteem for his beloved daughter, Xingyan was also very sad in his heart. Thinking of what Peng Xiangpu said just now, he couldn't help but be indignant again, and only said solemnly:
"Peng Gong and don't worry, this god and ghost thing has nothing to rely on, and you don't have to care too much. Please rest assured, Miss's lifelong event will fall on me!"
When Xingyan said this, he was bent on completely getting rid of the demon that had defiled the girl from a good family. And when Peng Gong heard his words, he felt a lot more relieved in his heart.
Let's not mention the many joys and sorrows in Peng Mansion for the time being, let's talk about the Zhenshui River on the outskirts of Zhenyang City.
In the lower reaches of the Zhenhe River, about forty or fifty miles away from Zhenyang City, the river flows through a secluded valley and is entrenched in an unfathomable bay. Now, in this inaccessible pool, there is a person who is washing his knotted body.
The eagle-eyed and broad-nosed man, while washing, was hating and scolding:
"Who kind of villain is Fang Cai, who dares to sneak attack this god in secret!"
"Hmph, this ignorant rat is also bold, dare to do bad things to meβif I meet him next time, he will be broken into ten thousand pieces!"
When this strange man cursed, he saw that the two deep wounds on his arms were still oozing beads of blood. Seeing this unprecedented strange situation, this strange god of Youtan, who was strong in his mouth, was secretly frightened:
β...... What is the origin of that villain? I have never heard of such a person in Zhenyang County. He wounded this wound, and it could not heal as instantly as it had been in the past......"
...... No matter what kind of joys and sorrows were staged on the arid Zhenyang realm this night, the faint dawn in the eastern sky was still as usual, fluttering in the rooster singing.
Today, it is the wise men recruited by Zhenyang County's Zhang Bang to open the altar to pray for rain for the soldiers and civilians of Hexian County.
