Chapter 42: The Ghost King's Great Birthday
"Liang Sheng, don't talk nonsense!" Seeing that the young man wanted to speak again, Yun Fusheng hurriedly stopped and scolded, turned his head and apologized and said: "This child is spoiled, and I hope Brother Ning will not blame him." ”
Ning Caichen took a deep breath: "I didn't mean to pursue him. The head of the Sima family wants to kill me, and he will become a wanted criminal in the empire in the future, and one report will be reported, and the grievances between me and the Sima family are over, so I will leave. ”
As he spoke, he arched his hand towards Yun Fusheng and turned his head to look at Luo Yinghao: "Uncle Luo, let's go." ”
Luo Yinghao nodded, and said to Yun Fusheng: "The head of the Sima family has become a wanted criminal in the empire, and the Sima family is already on the verge of decline, does this hero have the idea of transferring to the Luo family?"
Yun Fusheng shook his head firmly: "It is precisely because this is the most difficult moment for the Sima family that I can't leave here, and Lord Luo's kindness is understood." ”
Luo Yinghao sighed, but his eyes were full of appreciation. Simply turned around and returned to the sedan chair with Ning Caichen, and gradually drifted away under the gaze of a crowd......
It's night, the moon is on the branches, and the light is shining.
In the Ning Mansion, in the east room, on the bed, Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian sat across a wooden table, and a green lamp on the table bloomed with orange light, illuminating the cheeks of one person and one ghost.
"You don't have to take any more pills tonight, do you?"
"No, the wound has scabbed over and is about to heal. Ning Caichen smiled.
"Then what are we going to do now, reciting the sage's scriptures?" Xiao Qian asked, putting her arms on the table and holding her chin.
Ning Caichen was just about to nod yes, when a familiar laugh suddenly came from outside the door: "You two, it's really like living together." ”
"Brother Yan?!" Ning Caichen Huo Ran stood up, pushed the door open, and looked at the old man who was smiling in the moonlight with burning eyes.
Yan Chixia glanced at him and said in surprise: "Scholar, have you broken through to a third-rate master?"
"It's barely a third-rate master, Brother Yan, your ability to look forward to qi is really strong. Ning Caichen said in admiration.
Yan Chixia was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Originally, I thought I was wrong, it has only been a few days, and even a genius saint has not entered the realm so exaggerated." But I didn't expect ......"
"Brother Yan, scholar, you two should come in and talk about it. Xiao Qian pulled Ning Caichen and welcomed Yan Chixia into the room.
The three of them sat down at the table, and Yan Chixia said: "Scholar, tell me quickly, what adventures you have had in the past few days, and how did you enter the country so quickly." ”
Ning Caichen and Xiao Qian glanced at each other, smiled, and said what happened along the way without reservation, and Yan Chixia, who listened to it, was amazed again and again.
"Now it seems that it was right to separate the experience from you at the beginning, scholar, you are like a copy of the Emperor of Donghua. After listening to the narration, Yan Chixia sighed.
Ning Caichen smiled: "There is no comparison between me and Emperor Donghua at all, he is a peerless genius who is not born in the world." But I have reached my current state with the help of the power of the human emperor's pen, the power of Xiaoqian, the power of innate righteousness, and even the power of some ordinary people. ”
"Don't be presumptuous. Yan Chixia said: "Although the process is different, the results you get are all the same." As long as you maintain this state, scholar, work hard, overcome obstacles, and move forward bravely, you may not be able to create myths like emperors. ”
Ning Caichen shook his head and was noncommittal: "Don't talk about this, Brother Yan came to visit late at night, there must be something important, right?"
Yan Chixia paused for a moment and looked at Nie Xiaoqian: "Do you remember what day it is?"
Xiao Qian was stunned for a moment, thought about it carefully, and her face changed slightly: "I was immersed in the life of the mortal world, but I forgot that today is the birthday of the old demon of Montenegro......"
Ning Caichen's heart moved: "Brother Yan came over this time, is it related to the birthday of the old demon of Montenegro?"
Yan Chixia nodded seriously: "These days, I have been lurking in the Black Wind Mountain, exploring the reality of the old demon of the Black Mountain. It has been completely confirmed that this evil ghost king is incapacitated, even invincible, and the only way to deal with him is to wait for him to make a mistake himself, or I myself will break through again. Early this morning, I suddenly noticed that the lights on the Black Wind Mountain were full of lights and the number of guests increased, and I knew that the birthday of the Black Mountain had arrived. ”
"Brother Yan, what do you want to do? Take advantage of your birthday to kill the old demon?" Xiao Qian endured her heart palpitations and couldn't help but speak.
For her, the old demon of Montenegro is the most terrifying existence, and it is an object that cannot be provoked. The scene of the divination was like a nightmare, and she felt chills in her heart every time she remembered it.
If she hadn't had to, she really didn't want to provoke this evil old demon, lest she really step into hell.
"Wanting to cross a big realm to kill the enemy is very unrealistic for me now. Yan Chixia said: "So we went over this time, not to kill demons and demons, but to pay tribute to all the demons and monsters in these three hundred miles of land." ”
Xiao Qian subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief: "The gift of the three hundred miles of land realm demon tribute must be priceless, it will be strictly guarded, and it is not easy to steal it." ”
Yan Chixia took out a porcelain bottle from her arms and poured out three pills: "When the time comes, all the guests will pay tribute, and the three of us will pay tribute to these three chalcedony pills." The chalcedony pill has been manipulated by me, and you can check the location of the pill at any time. As long as you decide where you want to collect your gifts, the rest will be much easier. ”
"It seems that you are really prepared!" Ning Caichen's gaze gradually became resolute: "No matter who the three of us are, if we want to break through quickly, we must need a lot of resources, and looting gifts is undoubtedly the best way at present...... Xiaoqian, what do you think?"
Xiao Qian hesitated for a moment: "Since the two of you have made up your mind, I don't have any opinion." The only request is, don't take risks, don't do it. ”
Yan Chixia put the chalcedony pill back into the porcelain bottle and put it in her arms: "Don't worry, we only went to seek wealth this time, and we will stop it as soon as there is any risk." ”
After discussing, the two of them left Jinhua at night, crossed the tomb mountain, and traveled more than ten miles, and came to a huge mountain peak with lights and sounds.
"From now on, scholar, you and I are evil monks, and Xiao Qian is a ghost monk who is good friends with us. Pulling a person and a ghost to the shadow of the mountain peak, Yan Chixia took out two sets of Taoist clothes with hidden blood gossip from the cloth bag on her waist, and handed one to Ning Caichen: "Put on this first, and pretend to be some." ”
Ning Caichen took the Taoist uniform and caged it outside the scholar's uniform: "Why do you have to change clothes here? Wouldn't it be better to change at home?"
Yan Chixia got dressed, took out two blood-red Dao crowns, and handed him one: "It's not just us who are concerned about the birthday of the old demon in Montenegro, there are some other righteous sects. Dozens of miles from Jinhua to Heifeng Mountain, I don't know who is ambushed in the middle, we come dressed like this, God knows if there will be people looking for trouble in the middle. ”
Ning Caichen handed the Dao crown to Xiao Qian and asked her to put it on for herself: "In this way, it will definitely be very lively tonight, I don't know if there will be a righteous monk to kill demons and demons." ”
"Perhaps. Yan Chixia said: "Anyway, no matter what, let's just disguise ourselves, no matter what happens at the birthday banquet, it has nothing to do with us." ”
Ning Caichen nodded, and looked at Xiao Qian: "You still change into this white dress and put on a mask, if you let that evil ghost see you so beautifully, what will you think." ”
"I've got the clothes. Yan Chixia took out a set of brown clothes and put it in Xiaoqian's hand.
After the two of them were ready, Xiao Qian took out the mask that had never left her body and put it on, and then they walked out of the shadows and stepped on the mountain road.
Halfway up the mountain, ghost servants stood guard on both sides of the mountain road, holding scarlet flags, floating in the air with expressionless faces.
"Stop, please show the invitation. "At the end of the mountain road, at the entrance of the huge mountain platform, two blue-faced and fanged Yin Spirits armed with spears stopped them.
Yan Chixia had prepared this kind of thing before, and at this time, she took out three wooden cards from her arms and handed them to the two yin ghosts: "Evil Dao monk skeleton old man, white-faced scholar, bloody ghost." ”
The two ghosts examined the three wooden plaques and gave them a serious look before retracting the crossed spears......
