Chapter 406: The Carriage
"This ......" After listening to the officers and soldiers guarding the door, the old man and the young man couldn't help but feel strange. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info They have never met before, and today is the first time they have met. If you just invite them to come and sit down for a while, then you can still say that the officers and soldiers guarding the gate are hospitable, and they are so respectful to invite them to stay...... Wacky, so weird!
As if seeing the suspicions of the old man and the young man, the officers and soldiers guarding the gate said with a sneer: "The two of you don't have to be careful, in fact, I invited the two of you to live in the cold house, in addition to the inn in the city is not easy to find, I want to help the two of you, but more selfishness - I just saw the martial arts of this little brother, and I didn't even see it clearly, so he flew from the horse's side to the horse's side, and it must be extraordinary to stretch out his hand." And I just told the two of you that there are monsters in this city now...... Hehe, there is an old mother in the next house, and I am afraid that she will be in danger when I come in, so I have been going home to live. But I know my own affairs, as far as my martial arts are concerned, even if I encounter monsters, I am afraid that I am not an opponent, and I can be skinned and eaten by the other party in three times and two times. So ......"
"So you want to invite us over to protect you two?" The young man suddenly turned to look at the old man: "Daddy, anyway, according to what this eldest brother said, now the inns in the city are full, and it is difficult to find empty rooms." Why don't we go over and have a look?"
The old man groaned slightly, then nodded and said, "It's okay! Meeting is fate, since the little brother is so polite, if the old man refuses again, it will be rude." Oh yes, I don't know the name of the little brother? Lingtang is old this year?"
"Back to my father-in-law, the little surname is Yin Xiaotian, you can teach me Xiaotian. As he spoke, the officers and soldiers at the gate beckoned the old man and the young man into the city, and closed the city gate. Of course, he wasn't alone in guarding the door, but his companions had all gone before, and he was left alone.
When he entered the city and looked at the empty streets in the city where there were no pedestrians, the young man couldn't help but turn around and ask: "Brother Xiaotian, you said that there are monsters in this city, why is it troublesome? When will it be troublesome? I see that there is no one on this street, is it at night? Or is everyone afraid to go out all day because of the monsters?"
"The little brother is really meticulous in his observations, and his associative ability is really rich. Yes, our Qingshan County only makes trouble with monsters at night - it can't be said to be monsters, maybe it's still evil ghosts. In short, every two days and evenings, the city would remember the sound of ghosts crying wolves, first in the east of the city, and then gradually in the west of the city. As long as that sound is heard at night, the next day, there will inevitably be a person dead in the city......" Yin Xiaotian closed the city gate and led the old man and the young man to their house as he spoke.
At the same time, another city gate, a horse-drawn carriage approached.
The carriage was not big, it looked ordinary, and it was not luxurious. The driver was a young Taoist priest, in his twenties, urging the horse to move quickly, while turning back and rushing into the carriage and said, "Master, there is Qingshan County in front of you, is 'he' really here?
As soon as the words fell, a gentle voice floated out of the carriage: "Don't see you anymore, there's nothing left and right." In short, the hexagram shows that he is here, and as for whether he is really there, it will not be known until he enters the city to inquire. ”
As he spoke, the carriage approached the city gate. This city gate is the east city gate, and the old man and the young father and son just entered the west city gate. Although the closing time of the two gates is the same, there is no watch after all in ancient times, and the time cannot be accurate to minutes and seconds, and the closing time is slightly different. The west gate guarded by Yin Xiaotian has been closed, but the east gate is just about to close.
The young Taoist priest rushed to the front, and was immediately stopped by the officers and soldiers guarding the gate in the same way as the old man and the young man were treated. Coincidentally, this officer and soldier was the one who checked Zhang Xuanqing the day before yesterday, and the one who checked Luo Siyuan did not come in turn.
This person's name is Zhao Defang, and his temper is not very good on weekdays, especially in recent days, the dead people in the city are making monsters, and people are panicking, and he is even more angry. I didn't lose my temper when I checked Zhang Xuanqing last time, but I still gave the officer and soldier who inspected Luo Siyuan some face. Today is different, he is unlucky today, gambling lost money, seeing that only one day later, another person stepped on the point, and then his heart was on fire, stopped the young Taoist priest, and scolded and said: "What is it, it will not come when it is dark, and it will not wait for the time to close the city gate." Hey, are you here to be reincarnated?"
The young Taoist priest couldn't help frowning slightly when he heard this, but he was very well cultivated, and he smiled and said, "This official is invited, and the poor Taoist is courteous." I don't know what happened to the official who stopped the poor road?"
Zhao Defang continued to scold and scolded: "What's the matter? It's a routine! Do you know when you go into the city to check it? Get out, hurry up and get down for Lao Tzu, and let Lao Tzu see if there are any important criminals in the car!"
The young Taoist priest's brows couldn't help frowning deeper, but it was a common thing to go into the city to investigate. At that moment, he held back his anger and turned back to ask: "Master......"
However, as soon as he said two words, Zhao Defang couldn't wait, reached out and grabbed the clothes on his chest, and was about to pull him down.
A young Taoist priest, a soft snort came out of his nostrils, and he didn't see how he moved, Zhao Defang sighed, covered his hands and screamed miserably.
At this time, there were still two people guarding the city gate with him, one fat and one thin, and when they saw this, they hurriedly gathered around and asked in a panic: "Brother Defang, what's wrong with you?"
"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, ......" Zhao Defang couldn't say one, two, three, four, he only knew that he was holding his hands and shouting pain.
The other two guards broke his hands open, but saw that his hands were clean and intact, how could he still cry out in pain?
The thin guard didn't think about it, he turned around and shouted at the young Taoist priest: "Wu Na Daoist, what happened to your brother?"
The young Taoist priest was just about to speak, when his master's voice sounded in the carriage at this time: "What's the matter? Qingfeng, what's wrong?"
Before the words fell, the curtain was lifted from the inside by a white and slender hand, revealing a peerless face.
This person is about thirty years old, with delicate facial features, red lips and phoenix eyes, fair skin, and looks like he is in his twenties. Wearing a light blue robe, a feather crown on his head, and a folding fan in his hand, he didn't look like a Taoist priest, but like a scholar. With his face, if he was born on a woman, he was afraid that he would be able to support a green building. It's a pity that he is a man, and he is a Taoist priest.
The young Taoist priest who was called Qingfeng hurriedly jumped out of the carriage and turned around to salute: "Master, why did you come out?"
The blue-robed Taoist priest smiled lightly: "Why did you say that the teacher came out? You guy, so big, and so reckless, if I don't come out again, I don't know what trouble you want to cause me!"
Strange to say, this blue-robed Taoist priest looks like he is in his thirties at most, but when it comes to Qingfeng Taoist priests in his twenties who are about the same age as him, it seems that he is talking about his son. (To be continued.) )
