As soon as Shen Zhongxia's words came out, he immediately found his beloved wife Wen Wan'er who had fallen into the house.

The hall master of Shen immediately floated over, helped Wen Wan'er, and the internal force of "Nian Qi" entered his wife's body through the palm of his left palm, and it didn't take long for Wen Wan'er Lin's originally pale face to blush slightly.

The silver lock that called, the silver tooth was fighting, and he was speechless. Another golden flower, when he saw the master, he was able to stumble and speak, saying, "...... Master...... Just now...... There was a blood baby who gave birth to an old man's pale face, bared his fangs and grinned, and said to his wife...... Say......" When the female disciple said this, her face showed a look of extreme fear, and she couldn't go on.

"What did the blood baby say?" Shen Zhongxia asked sharply.

The Blood Baby said...... Blood Baby Says...... Say master, you...... You killed the child of the 'Heavenly Gu Niang', Peony Girl...... Right now...... Then the peony girl is going to ...... It will be transformed into a soul and thrown into ...... In the belly of the lady, reincarnated...... to kill the child in the womb of the lady...... When he finished speaking, he ...... He pounced on him and opened his teeth to devour ......"

Shen Zhongxia swept his eyes like lightning, searched around, and said sharply: "Where is the blood baby now?"

The silver lock that came to his senses was relieved, and then he stammered: "...... Back to the master, the disciple called, it ...... It jumped and disappeared......"

Shen Zhongxia "hummed" heavily, his iron-faced forehead protruded, and he remembered the daughter Hua Peony in the "Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers" who had been infected by himself and died for many years (see the volumes of "Gentle Township" and "Hundred Flowers Tribulation"), which made him remorse and chagrin...... Listening to Wen Wan'er in his arms, he suddenly moved, and the hall master Shen hurriedly lowered his head and asked with concern, "Wan'er, how are you feeling?"

Wen Wan'er, the palace master of the "Netherworld Palace", her eyes were scattered and blank, and she only spit out a few intermittent words from her lips: "...... Zhongxia ...... We...... We don't want this child...... Okay? Wan'er...... I'm so scared ......"

Wen Wan'er said and wept, her weak cold little hand tightly grasped her husband's strong and powerful hand, and Shen Zhongxia could feel that his wife's hand was grabbing his heart, his convulsions, pain, old age, weeping blood, helpless heart!

-- Shen Zhongxia has been running for half a life, working hard all his life, enjoying glory and wealth, but also experiencing bitterness and bitterness, ups and downs, drifting, at this moment he is middle-aged, he already wants to settle down, and his wife and children are harmonious. He also had several children, such as the righteous daughter Han Feiyan who gave birth to him (see the volume of "Black and White"), the Xiaobao given birth to him by his mistress Wang Wei (see the volume of "Liuliyue"), and the eldest daughter Peony (see the volume of "Hundred Flowers Tribulation") left by the original wife "Tiangu Niangniang" Shangguan Waist Dance, but these children all died one after another;

Today, Shen Zhongxia is forty years old, and he has no children and no daughters. For such a middle-aged man who has endured most of his life, the flesh and bones in Wan'er's belly may be his last chance to breed offspring, and the only life continuation for the next generation.

To appease his wife's emotions, Shen Zhongxia came to the courtyard in front of him with a heavy mood and pace, Tian Ling'er, the altar master of the "White Tiger Altar" who had been poisoned, had been opened by Xuanyuan, the altar owner of the "Green Dragon Altar", and was temporarily controlled, and his condition was not optimistic. The life period is approaching, Shen Zhongxia feels more and more that the manpower of the main hall is stretched, and the injury of the master of the field altar is even more insufficient in terms of manpower; the master of the Shen main hall can only pass the order, and the altar master Murong Heishan and Murong Bao's uncle and nephew, who are still on the way to the main hall, must arrive at the main hall before the birthday banquet begins, so as to deal with the chaos.

On the day the order was delivered, there were only 19 hours left before the birthday of the heroes in the main city of the "Seven Star Hall" main hall......

At this moment, the season of "Southern Xinjiang" is already a steep cold in spring.

On the bank of the "Nu River", a slanting sun sleeps, and the river is reflected in a dazzling color, looking like a golden oil painting from afar, and there are many shadows shuttling back and forth in the picture.

The snow in the river has not melted, and a small part of the water surface is still covered with a thin layer of cold ice, but most of the places have melted the living water, and the thin ice floats on the water, reflecting the afterglow of the sunset, emitting the same brilliant brilliance as the waves.

In the shallow water of the river near the shore, a few tenacious aquatic plants stretch out, and above the river, there is a layer of faint mist that the people of "southern Xinjiang" are accustomed to. The water was soft, and a few unknown waterfowl suddenly swept up and quickly plunged into the reeds on the opposite bank. The ferryman had already carried the passengers to the other side of the river and did not return, and the guests who did not squeeze on the boat waited to be ferried on the riverside, looking at the water surface in the fog with their heads and feet.

In the crowd waiting to be crossed, Dawn and Ji Beiming were also crowded in it.

Ji Bei looked at the sunset on the horizon and the flowing water in front of him stupidly, the burly body of this "Blood River Swordsman" had the delicate mind of a girl's sentimentality.

A heroic man like Ji Beiming, drawing a sword on the long street, spilling blood in the downtown area, playing a sword and singing, drunken and vicious fights, seeing unevenness on the road, and going to the soup and fire, in their minds, are all idle things;

What makes Ji Beiming feel depressed is that with such a beautiful scenery, it is not the charming Leng Ruoya or the charming blood iris that accompanies me Ji Beiming to bask in the evening sunset, but the half-dead dawn of the old-fashioned yin and yang weirdness in front of me?

Thinking of this, Ji Beiming tilted his head and looked at the dawn beside him, the dawn was still old-fashioned and half-dead: "Old Bei, do you feel so strange?"

Ji Bei said uncooperatively: "It's normal, where is there anything strange?"

Dawn glanced at him, and asked and answered himself: "Look, we were invited by Shen Zhongxia's old grandson, and Baba came all the way to 'Southern Xinjiang' to celebrate his birthday, why didn't even half of the disciples of the 'Seven Star Hall' who came out to greet you and me not see him? Also, along the way, both sides of the official road are full of small wooden figures and small puppets with needles and chisels? You use your elm head again, think about it, why are the crossroads of the towns and villages we walked through piled with ashes of dark paper? Why......?"

Ji Beiming didn't bother to pay attention to the chatter of dawn, he turned his eyes to look over, and saw that not far from the riverside, there were two women, lit incense and candles, were kowtowing and worshipping, and there were words in their mouths, among which the elder village woman used a peach wood sword to vigorously beat the thick yellow paper spread on the ground.

Dawn also saw it at this time, and couldn't help but step forward and ask: "Two sisters-in-law, I see that there are people worshipping the gods for dozens of miles by the river, but I don't know what kind ......of festival sacrifice it is today?"

The younger village girl, hearing that Dawn spoke in a foreign accent, said: "Allah, you are guests from a foreign country, of course, I don't know a few places nearby, the evil ghosts have been making trouble recently, ...... said this, the young village girl put her hand around her cheek, signaled and whispered: "...... You don't know, not to mention other villages, it's this river, the old man and woman who have lived by this river for dozens of years have never seen a pig or a cow drowned, but in the last one or two months, the boat has capsized three or five times, and eight or nine young offspring have drowned......

"Why is this evil ghost so fierce?" Ji Beiming also leaned over and asked.

When the elderly village woman heard this, she was very angry, and she said angrily: "...... It's not all Shen Zhongxia's bastard thing! He has done evil before, and he dared to abandon his wife, 'Tian Gu Niangniang', and raped and killed his own daughter......"

"Who is the 'Heavenly Gu Niang'? Shen Zhongxia's daughter, who is it?" Xiao Xiao was very interested in Shen Zhongxia's "privacy", and couldn't help but ask.

The village woman looked at the village girl and said perfunctorily: "Allah, you strangers, it's not good to inquire about this......

Ji Bei knew that these two village women were suspicious of their strangers, so he quietly handed them two small pieces of silver, and said, "...... We were just curious, and it didn't matter. ”

The village woman put away the silver, and immediately said with a smile: "Old sister looks at Allah, you don't look like bad people, so I will tell you, 'Tian Gu Niangniang' is called Shangguan Waist Dance, is the original partner of Shen Zhongxia, when they were young, they also had a daughter, nicknamed 'Peony', and later I heard that the girl doll was born neatly and beautifully, and was killed by Shen Zhongxia's 'beast father'......"

"I also heard that the 'Tian Gu Niangniang' also doesn't abide by women's morals, and became the mistress of the 'Ghost King' early......" The younger village girl interjected.

"Ghost King?" Dawn and Ji Bei were stunned.

Although the two have been in the "Central Plains" for a long time and have first come to "Southern Xinjiang", the name of the "Ghost King" Ge Feng is known to everyone. It is said that the "Heavenly Ghost Sect" of the "Ghost King" Ge Feng's nest was originally in the ghost city of "Fengdu" in Sichuan, and later, the fledgling Lengbei City, in order to compete for the martial arts warrior "parting hook", took Shu Ziti, Wen Seventeen and other masters of the "Liangcheng Inn" to make trouble in the "Fengdu" ghost town, and the "Fengdu Ghost Cave" were all destroyed (see the first and third palms of the "Ghost King" volume), and even the "Ghost King" Ge Feng himself was injured by the sword qi of Leng Beicheng, who was only seventeen years old at the time, and was forced to lead the remnants of the people, and fled to the "Southern Xinjiang", and never dared to return to the "Central Plains".

The "ghost king" Ge Feng is in the "Yungui" place where the common people and gentry believe in ghosts and gods, and develops believers, like a fish in water, calling for wind and rain, and never thinking about it. Then, the "Green Dragon Boss" was born, and the "Green Dragon Society" extended the tentacles of power to the southern border of the sky, and even the "Ghost King" Ge Feng was enshrined as "one of the four major offerings of the Green Dragon", in the "Green Dragon Society", the status was second only to the Green Dragon Boss and the "Green Dragon Left and Right Messenger", with high power, and the followers were all over the "Southern Xinjiang", and Xuan He was incomparable.

With the big backer of the "Green Dragon Society", the "Yungui" area has become the world where the "ghost king" Ge Feng is indisputable. The mysterious rumors about the "ghost king" among the people are even more overwhelming, and the clamor is soaring.

It is said that the "ghost king" Ge Feng, with the power of ghosts and gods, can fly swords for thousands of miles, take people's heads, and make good use of "witchcraft", and is good at "Gu art", but also through "ghost" art, not only can harm people, kill, but also can save people, living people, but also can control people, control people, go to heaven and earth, call wind and rain, scatter beans into soldiers, drive gods and move ghosts, omniscient, omnipotent.

It is also said that the "Heavenly Gu Gate" and the "Heavenly Witch Sect", which are now equal to the "Heavenly Ghost Sect", must obey the moderation of the "Ghost King" Ge Feng, the "Heavenly Gu Gate" master "Tian Gu Niangniang" Shangguan waist dance number "Gu King", "Heavenly Witch Sect" sect master Tang Shao is called the "Poison King", and at the same time one of the "Top Ten Heavenly King Elders" of the "Blue Dragon Society" is also ranked under the "Ghost King" Ge Feng, one of the "Four Great Offerings", and the "Heavenly Gu Niangniang" Shangguan waist dance, in order to deal with the "Poison King" Tang Shao's "Heavenly Witch Sect" oppression, even did not hesitate to dedicate himself to become the "Ghost King" Gofeng's mistress.

The older village woman seemed to dislike the loneliness of the two strangers, and said in a chattering voice: "Allah, you two elm brains, after Shen Zhongxia became a big official in the 'Jingshi', he became a group of three wives and four concubines, and the 'Tian Gu Niangniang' gave Shen Zhongxia's remaining daughter Peony Girl, who was occupied and ruined by Shen Zhongxia's murder that day, and the 'Tian Gu Niangniang' was angry, and married the 'Ghost King', Shen Zhongxia abandoned his wife and killed his own flesh and blood, did you see it, isn't this the report of the world-"

I don't know if I felt that my companion's words were too gloating and inappropriate, but the young village girl hurriedly added, "Allah, don't listen to my sister-in-law's nonsense...... To tell the truth, over the years, the head of the hall Shen has taken the lead in repairing bridges and roads in the township, setting up a school, and has indeed done a lot of good things and created a lot of gospel for the villagers and residents in this area, but the matter of the mother and daughter of the 'Tian Gu Niangniang' is a big stain on the life of the head of the hall of Shen, and it is also an indisputable fact. ... If it weren't for the witches of the 'Heavenly Witch Sect', they rushed to the countryside to cast spells, and the resentment of the villagers would still be there!"

As she spoke, the two village women, in a combined formation, bowed to the back of Dawn and Ji Beiming, and said, "Hello Wizard." ”

The two turned around and saw that on the beach behind them, there were two white-robed witches in the distance, and they also bowed slightly to the two village women.

Ji Bei said strangely: "Heavenly Witch Sect?"

"Allah, yes!" said the elder village woman, "these two wizards, who work tirelessly and do not have to be filthy, to run for the villagers to exorcise evil spirits. ”

Because Dawn and Ji Beiming grew up in the "Central Plains" martial arts, they are not familiar with the sects and sects in this area, but the name of "Tianwu Sect" is still more or less heard, which must be related to the southwest force of the "Blue Dragon Society" presided over by Tang Shao, the "Poison King".

I only heard the old village woman murmuring, "...... Allah, you don't know, all the villages where these two witches have worshiped and practiced, there will be no evil demons and monsters to harass, and the magic is very good, their sect leader Tang Shao must be the reincarnation of Guanyin if he comes to earth......"

Dawn was secretly amused, and wanted to look at the witch at the beach intersection again, but in this moment, the two young and beautiful white-robed witches had disappeared......

Ji Beiming kicked Dawn with his heel and said in a low voice, "What are you looking at? You old pervert!"

Dawn didn't care about the jokes of her companions at all, and only muttered to herself, "Those two witches are so strange......"

At this time, the golden waves are sparkling, the river is in the sky, and the boatman who ferries the swaying oars has already docked to carry passengers.

At this moment, Dawn's eyes lit up again, and he blurted out: "Three girls!"

On the beach in the distance, there were already many pedestrians waiting for the boat. These many people were also muttering and talking, all of them complained that Shen Zhongxia had provoked the wrath of the heavens and involved the neighboring people. However, in this person who complained, Dawn only saw a girl at a casual glance.

The delicate and lovely girl in a purple dress, with little purple wind chimes tied on her hair and clothes, smiled at the dawn that greeted her in the distance, pure, simple, sweet, and beautiful.

This girl's smile is so pure, so simple, so sweet, so beautiful, and so good.

In an instant, in the eyes of Dawn and Ji Beiming, there was no sunset, no flowing water, no ferry, no passers-by, no village girl, no witch, no "Tian Gu Niangniang" and "Ghost King", and no self and each other.

The girl is only about sixteen or seventeen years old, she looks very cute, she laughs with two snow-white teeth, with a fair-skinned shyness, a small forehead is beautiful, white and shy, her hair is very long, and her big eyes reveal a strange cunning and cunning, her waist, there is a beautifully pretended scimitar, in her hand, there is also a small bowl of black sesame paste, the corners of her lips, there are two sesame seeds, playful and cute little appearance, so that the two men in the distance, only one rushed up, The gentle urge to wipe the food from her cheeks and lips......

Dawn and Ji Beiming, Leng Ruoya, are no strangers to the girl in purple, and they are all very familiar.

――In the past, the "Wonderful Hand Clan" was controlled by Jiang Ao, the fourth protector of the "Blue Dragon Society" protector "Nine Heavens, Nine Lands and Eighteen Human Demons", and the "Dream Demon" Jiang Ao was imprisoned at dawn. (See the volume of "Dream Slayer")

- Back then, the "Blood River faction" was persecuted by the righteous son of the minister Cai Jing, the "destroying playboy" Gongzi Ming, Ji Bei ordered to protect Miss Blood Iris and fled thousands of miles, if it wasn't for Leng Ruoya to rescue in the "stinky hole" in time, the "Blood River" faction would have perished long ago and become extinct. (See Blood Iris, volume)

Both of them were thinking: Why is this ghost girl here?!
