Chapter 07: Mission

Changzhou.

Thousands of miles of mountains, endless.

However, compared with Fuxi Mountain in Tongzhou, it is not as high and dangerous here, except for one exception. To the south of Yueyang City, between these mountains, a single peak rises from the ground, like a sword pointing at the sky, and can almost take the entire Changzhou boundary into the eyes. The famous Jade Sword Sect is located on it.

Its name, Jade Sword Peak.

"Whew!"

At noon, no one saw it, and a flash of light fell into the mountains.

Not long after, there was a man embroidered with a strange red maple on his robe, stepping between the rugged mountain roads. Qin Chuan got rid of the entanglement of the Vermilion Bird, and naturally continued to rush to this Jade Sword Peak.

At this time, he was about to reach the foot of Jade Sword Peak, but he was not in a hurry.

Not far ahead, there is a mountain village, far away from the world, there are only a few dozen households, which is not as prosperous as outside. However, it is not bad to use it to rest Qin Chuan.

Just stepped into the village, but there was a hint of doubt between his eyebrows.

"What's going on?"

Perhaps because of its remoteness from the Central Plains, there are no temples in this village to worship Taoist Buddhism or even Confucian sages. Of course, this is not unusual, but there is not even a god altar such as the Earth Blaze God. There is an ancestral hall in the village, in addition to worshipping the ancestors, there is a stone statue of a witch god.

The witch god of the Holy Witch Cult of the Western Frontier!

After looking around, Qin Chuan found that the folk customs of this village were not the same as outside.

The Tsuchiya Garden, the costumes, and the clothes are all clearly close to the tradition of the Holy Witch Cult. At this time, I happened to meet the villagers to sacrifice, and I was used to it, and it was exactly the same as the festival of the Holy Witch Sect.

Because of this, few people noticed Qin Chuan's appearance at first.

"Hey, who are you?"

Suddenly, a man patrolling outside the ancestral hall spotted Qin Chuan, and then walked over quickly, first looking up and down before asking.

"I'm from Central State, and I'm here to rest. ”

Qin Chuan bowed his head and saluted, but as soon as he raised his head, he saw that the villager seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly pointed to the Taoist robe on Qin Chuan's body, opened his mouth, and only shouted for a long time:

"Are you...... Are you the Venerable Lord of Qin Chuan?"

“?!”

Suddenly, Qin Chuan's face was shocked.

These mountain villagers actually know their original identity?

"Come on! Your Excellency has arrived! Your Excellency has arrived!"

I only heard the man shouting a few times towards the ancestral hall, and then countless villagers ran out one after another, and after glancing at Qin Chuan, they actually bowed to Qin Chuan again and again, worshipping him like a god.

“......”

In this way, Qin Chuan couldn't figure it out.

Could it be that Aroye really brought the Holy Witch Cult here? And what kind of title did he give himself as the "Lord"? Other than that, he really couldn't think of how to explain it.

"Get up!

Thinking about it, Qin Chuan hurriedly helped up those villagers, a little inexplicable.

In his previous life, he was the demon who everyone talked about, so naturally he had never experienced such a battle, and in this life, he cultivated the Dao Dharma, and although he became an immortal in that world, he had never been worshiped by the people. Unexpectedly, as the husband of the Holy Witch Sect Leader Aroye, he came to such a time.

For a while, I was a little dazed in my mind......

After a long time, these villagers were dismissed, but a white-haired old man who was the head of the village was still serving by Qin Chuan's side, and his respectful look made Qin Chuan feel a little embarrassed.

The sun is blazing.

The Jade Sword Peak not far away was shrouded in a wonderful halo.

At this time, under the shade of a tree in the village, Qin Chuan sat opposite the village chief, and next to him, there were several villagers waiting. I'm afraid this is the highest treatment this small village can entertain guests.

"Are you mistaken?"

Pursing his lips, Qin Chuan was still a little puzzled.

"You can't be wrong, you can't be wrong. ”

The old village chief replied again and again, "There are people in the village on the other side of the West Mountain who have been to the Holy Land of the Western Frontier, and there are also apostles from the Qingying Mountain, and they have all described your honor. This holy garment of ice silk will not be fake, will not be fake. ”

"Hoo ......"

Hearing this, Qin Chuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Since it has a connection with the Western Frontier, it must be a believer in the acceptance of Aroye. It seems that his guess is not wrong, the Gu magic that once appeared in Anyang to confuse the people must also be the witch guards sent by Aroya to preach. It's just that Zhongzhou is more civilized, and the effect is not as fast as that of Changzhou.

Thinking about it, I can't help but make sure:

"Are you worshipping witch gods?"

"Yes. And you, Your Excellency, and Your Mother. ”

The old village chief replied. When it comes to these two titles, they are more respected than those Confucian scribes in Jingzhou who mention the great sages of the Confucian Garden. This also shows that Aroye's brainwashing methods are really not low.

Of course, the teachings of the Holy Witch Cult have their own merits.

At least, it won't harm these ordinary people. Once A Luoye mentioned to Qin Chuan about going to the Central Plains to preach, Qin Chuanwei did not hold an objection, but he pulled himself in for no reason, which made him a little dissatisfied in his heart. What kind of lord and mother, if it is passed on......

Shaking his head, Qin Chuan continued to ask:

"That'...... How long have you been believing in witch gods?"

"A month ago, there was a plague here and many people died, but it was the Mother who sent an apostle to save us. Later, we demolished the Confucius Temple and converted to the witch god. ”

“......”

Hearing this, Qin Chuan was speechless for a while.

Dare to love Aroye or the believer who snatched it from the hands of the Confucian Garden......

"Those witches...... Where are the apostles?"

"On the Green Mountains. ”

"Green Immortal Mountain?"

"It's just to the east, there. ”

As he spoke, the old village chief stood up and pointed towards a peak not far away. Qin Chuan looked along, but saw that it was also a peak, echoing with the Jade Sword Peak in the east and west, although it was not as dangerous as the Jade Sword Peak, but its mountains and rivers were beautiful, but it was much better than the Jade Sword Peak.

Immediately, Qin Chuan nodded, thinking about whether to go to the Qingying Mountain to take a walk.

"Village Chief, this is what the guest left off in the morning. ”

Suddenly, a villager walked over with two things, first saluted Qin Chuan, and then asked the old village chief for instructions. Qin Chuan glanced at it casually, and suddenly his expression froze.

"Take it and I'll take a look. ”

Hearing this, the villagers had no objections, and immediately presented the two items.

One piece is a jade flute, the whole body is white and flawless, and the translucent white jade, in the inner layer, is as if oozing blood, bright red. The other is a wrapped scroll, although I don't know what it is, but just from the paper mounting, I know that it is worth a lot.

"Xiao Rubai's jade flute?!"

Qin Chuan was slightly stunned and recognized the origin of this jade flute. Then, he hurriedly opened the scroll, and sure enough, it was the spring scenery picture that he and Xu Zhiqian co-wrote.

"What is going on, guest?"

Asked softly, Qin Chuan was a little confused.

This jade flute should not only be a musical instrument, but also a magic weapon for cultivating truth, and that spring scenery map must also have extremely important value for Xiao Rubai, otherwise it would not be possible to exchange it with Xu Zhiqian with such a priceless treasure as the Guangling Qu fragment. But why did he abandon these two things?

"It was a guest who came to the village in the morning, and he left not long after he came. ”

The old village chief replied, a little unclear. However, although he didn't know why Qin Chuan was so concerned about this matter, since it was the "Venerable Lord" who asked him, he naturally knew everything.

"Gone?"

"Strange to say, the old man was drinking tea and chatting with the guest in the hall at that time, and he asked me about the Holy Witch Cult, which must have felt fresh, and the old man thought that maybe he could accept the letter for the lord and mother, so he told him. But in the meantime, he suddenly disappeared without thinking about anything, and never appeared. ”

As he spoke, the old village chief settled down and sighed, "We've always suspected that it's haunted." ”

"It's okay, that's not a ghost. ”

Qin Chuan reassured, as for the details, it was naturally inconvenient to explain to them. Then he asked, "Did he say anything before he left, or did anything strange happen?"

The old village chief thought for a while and said:

He asked me if I heard it, but we didn't. Besides, in this mountain and countryside, who will come here to play the piano and play the music if they have nothing to do. ”

Magic!

Saying this, Qin Chuan guessed the reason for the matter.

However, based on his own perception, Xiao Rubai's cultivation is probably still above him, and ordinary illusions can not confuse him. Even if you are obsessed with the sound of the piano, you will not lose your mind.

Unless......

"Whew!"

Suddenly, a touch of fresh wind, in front of the village chief and several villagers, Qin Chuan, along with the jade flute and the picture scroll, disappeared again as if they had never appeared.

The mouths of several people were wide open.

......

Green Mountains.

In several nearby villages, the people gradually worshipped the place as a sacred place.

Of course, this place is far away from the world, and no one cares about it. Although the Jade Sword Sect on the side knew a little, probably a new sect on this mountain, it didn't pay too much attention to it with a tolerant attitude.

After all, there are so many small sects in this world.

At this time, there are many buildings built on the mountain that are completely different from the style of the Central Plains, and few people in the Central Plains recognize that this is the stilted drum tower in Western Xinjiang. It is the same as the people living in the western frontier, blending with the common people, but it is magnificent and magnificent. A flag with a peculiar logo fluttering in the wind.

A thousand butterflies!

"Sanna-sama, a man broke in at the foot of the mountain and has been captured, what should I do?"

Outside a drum tower in the center, a Thousand Butterfly Clan Guard suddenly appeared, calling into the hall.

"What's the matter?"

In the hall, a lazy but coquettish voice came out. Today's Western Xinjiang, under the leadership of the Holy Witch Sect Master A Luo Ye, is stable and prosperous, and there has been no turmoil for several months. In this way, Sanna, who is the envoy of a thousand butterflies, feels a little too idle.

However, now that we have entered the Central Plains, we have to be cautious.

"I don't know. But what he was wearing...... He was wearing Lord Qin Chuan's red maple uniform, and his subordinates felt suspicious, so they arrested him. However, he does not seem to resist and threatens to see you. ”

“?!”

Hearing this, Sanna suddenly stood up and sat upright.

Although Qin Chuan mostly lives in Xianyunling in the western Xinjiang, he often shows up with the sect leader A Luoye, and many people among the civilians still recognize him, not to mention the Thousand Butterfly Sect Guard.

At this time, the clothes appeared, but the person was gone, which is indeed suspicious!

"Bring it on!"
