The next day, no official from the General's Mansion came to the post house to inform Chen Qingniu, so he waited patiently for a day. In the afternoon of the same day, Song Mengxiong and his entourage left the post house and never came back, I believe that it was the veteran Song Fengfan who laid the foundation of contacts at the border and played a role, otherwise Song Mengxiong, a young man, no matter how promising he was, would not be able to take the lead in leaving Ma Weijun Town, which was a piece of iron bucket at this sensitive moment, which required extremely considerable vigorous incense.

Since Chen Qingniu had made an appointment with Zhu Hongying in advance, and the feudal mansion was not allowed to leak the news to the nine towns of the border pass, then his identity and title as a disciple of the Chen family of Baima County were more real than the real one, so the mighty general's mansion and the Tiebei military town that was about to rush to him would not give Chen Qingniu too much special treatment, but would only treat him as an ordinary local county general's seed brother, even if it was a spy of Chunshui Pavilion, he would only learn that it was the White Horse Chen clan. It was not easy to dredge the relationship between the side concubines of a certain domain, and only then did he win an official body worthy of being among the top grades, from the eighth grade, which is really lacking, which is quite good, but it is only good, and it can't be called how shocking the world, so that it will not make people envy to the point that their eyes are red.

On the morning of the third day, no one informed Chen Qingniu when he would be able to hand over the edict talisman, Chen Qingniu had to leave for the general's mansion to ask, but this time the king of Hades was not easy to see, and the little ghost was even more difficult, and he was almost blasted out.

Most of it was Wang Xuetao's assassination, and the mighty general's mansion, which controlled the nine towns of the border pass, could no longer be suppressed.

In short, Ma Wei's four city gates have been martial law, and it is not difficult to enter the city, but very few people are allowed out of the city, unless there is a token issued by Gao Dajiao himself.

Chen Qingniu, who was affected by the pond fish, had to swallow his anger, and waited for a day in vain, and then finally delivered a message to the post house in the evening, saying that he would give a letter of approval within about three days, asking him to be calm and not impatient.

What else can Chen Qingniu do, he can't fight with a sword to enter the general's mansion, saying that Lao Tzu is an immortal master on an equal footing with your vassal king......

Fortunately, at the end of the three days of the agreement, a small official from the General's Mansion finally came to the post house in person and apologized in person, saying that Ma Wei Town was generally banned, and then according to the order of the ban, it was also his turn Chen Qingniu, and this was still early, even if not to mention the merchants and the people, there were still nearly 100 people lined up behind.

Chen Qingniu smiled bitterly and followed the little official to the general's mansion, entered through the side door, passed through the corridor, and arrived at the spacious side room of the signing hall, handed over the edict to the general's mansion for filing, and received the other military documents that had already been prepared, and it was over, in fact, the process was very simple, if it wasn't for Wang Xuetao, Chen Qingniu would almost have shown off his general's majesty in Tiebei Military Town.

There is a wine shop tea house in the inn, the dishes and drinks are quite good, the price is cheap, and the price is far better. Chen Qingniu has been dining in the backyard of the post house for the past few days, and because of the city ban, it is often very crowded, and there are always seven or eight tables, which can always be full.

Chen Qingniu is not good at drinking, he can drink, but he can't talk about how to like it, just to not be eye-catching, he will order a pot of old yellow sorghum with excellent sales at the side, known as burning the throat and penetrating the intestines, it is extremely difficult for ordinary people to lower their mouths, Chen Qingniu can only frown and drink slowly, and he is not in a hurry to leave, just sit there and listen to people chatting and blowing the conch.

Over time, I got a lot of gossip, such as the tomb of the military town can really bury a queen mother, is the early years of the Great Sui Dynasty a noble woman who fled here, and then changed her name incognito, remarried to a farmer, after her death her grave has Qingluan out of the tomb, fluttering her wings and flying high, this is the identity of people guessed; "Xiliang Pei Crouching Tiger" is not worthy of carrying shoes; and there is a fairy in the Hongyan border army, looking at the face like a child, the body is also like a woman short and delicate, but the temples have white hair, but the long sword is hanging on the waist, killing people like hemp, known as the first master of Xiliang, it is said that he once went deep into the hinterland of the Great Sui for thousands of miles, and several grandmasters and immortals of the Great Sui were swords, but for some reason they did not want to go to the mansion to enjoy the blessings.

For example, in the Iron Tablet Military Town, there is a widowed drunkard beauty with excellent appearance, not only the Iron Tablet Lord Wu has been coveting his head for a long time, but even the little sister-in-law next door and many officials in the military town also run to drink from time to time, the mother-in-law is also strong, but no one can touch her bed, and the man can only pass by and satisfy his hunger. And this beautiful woman in the famous customs is far and wide, as long as a good man can slaughter Ma Yanchao, the general of the Southern Xinjiang of the Great Sui, she is willing to recommend herself as a pillow and be a cow and a horse, and she is also willing......

Those rough men and warriors gathered at a table, and the conversation after tea and dinner, every day, a big basket, without repetition, listened to Chen Qing Oxlish with relish, and also offset most of the resentment in his stomach that wasted time.

Finally able to leave, Chen Qingniu no longer stayed in the post house for a moment, Xie Shiji drove the carriage to the West City Gate, and the next journey outside the Saixiong Town was to pass through or bypass the side of Saixiong Town, until the iron monument.

Beacons, post stations, border towns, yellow sand deserts, Gobi remnants, beautiful oases, mountains like flames.

The journey to the west is mostly desolate, but there are also lush, even cat-eye-like turquoise lakes embedded in the earth.

In the dead of night, when Wan Lai was silent, Chen Qingniu often stepped out of the carriage, lay on the ground, looked up at the starry sky, and even rarely slacked off, completely not exhaling and practicing qi, just pure daze.

The territory of Xiliang is as narrow as a corridor horizontally.

The carriage moved quickly through this corridor, day and night, without encountering any unexpected blockages.

After half a year, the greenery in the field of vision gradually grew. Chen Qingniu needed to replenish some dry food, looked around at a high place, looked far away, and finally saw a cooking smoke, so he asked Xie Shiji to drive the carriage away from the main post road and drive along the path to the cooking smoke.

Chen Qingniu did not take it lightly just because he was a cultivator. There are many dangers in traveling far away in the world, such as irresistible natural disasters, unknown alien ghosts and gods, unpredictable ghosts and spirits, isolated barbarians, insects, snakes, tigers and leopards in the deep mountains and forests, etc., all of which are fatal.

This is also the root of the earliest rise of the Taoist Fu Gong sect, every time you enter the mountains and forests of Sichuanze, you must hold the Fu Gong to disperse the calamity.

And the most simple talisman pattern was born from the ancient bronze tripod, those obscure, incomprehensible seal carving words.

An hour later, Chen Qingniu saw the outline of a village, surrounded by mountains and rivers, densely connected with yellow mud houses, rising from the foot of the mountain to the middle of the mountainside, roughly there were nearly 300 households, which is definitely an uncommon scene outside the sparsely populated northwest plug.

About three miles away from the village, Chen Qingniu suddenly asked Xie Shiji to stop the carriage, and he stepped out of the carriage.

On the side of the road, which is only for a carriage to pass, there is a boundary monument crookedly tilted, one side is engraved with Zhuolu, and the other side is engraved with Huairong, all of which are ancient insects and birds.

Squatting in front of the boundary monument, Chen Qingniu stretched out his hand and stroked the word "Zhuolu" in ancient times, rough and vicissitudes.

The puppet didn't know when he got out of his bag and stood at his feet, with his hands behind his back, pacing back and forth, like an old master in a private school preaching and teaching: "Zhuolu has at least six places in my Nanzhan Continent, the most famous one, of course, is Zhuolu County in the Later Wei Dynasty, which is one of the ten ancient battlefields, and the Tianyuan Dynasty, which once ruled half of the Nanzhan Continent, collapsed in that battle, and there is no such magnificent dynasty in the world. ”

Chen Qingniu withdrew his hand and stood up, "Nanzhan Buzhou is only one of the nine continents, and it is the smallest one in the territory, I heard that Dongsheng Shenzhou can accommodate eight or nine Nanzhan Bu Continent. ”

The puppet snorted coldly and retorted: "Have you seen it with your own eyes? Hearsay, it's just a rumor! I can't tell you that the truth is that our Nanzhan Continent is as big as eight or nine Dongsheng Divine Continents!"

Chen Qingniu looked down at the puppet that jumped to the top of the stone tablet, and saw that it had its hands on its hips and was serious.

He felt a little funny, but he didn't say anything, raised his eyes and asked casually, "Are you proficient in Kanyu Feng Shui and the Family Funeral Method?"

It hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't understand that, but with my intuition, I feel that the weight of the yin qi here is not inferior to the Yang Gang qi that soared into the sky in Wulin Town before." ”

Chen Qingniu nodded, the reason why he stopped and dismounted, in addition to observing the boundary monument, also noticed that this vast land was pregnant with an unusual forest and yin qi. The reason why he didn't turn around and leave is that although this yin qi is rich, it is not a suffocating and disgusting sinister aura, but a vast aura that is almost tragic and painful, and the most strange thing in this breath is that it seems to only complain about the sky, but it is not particularly human, so I believe that even if there are lonely souls and wild ghosts wandering around, it is not the kind of evil thing that wantonly infringes on the living.

As for the puppet's so-called martial arts town yang qi, Chen Qingniu was amazed for several days, according to it, it was actually caused by Pei Zongxuan's majestic momentum, just like a divine sword even if it was buried deep in the Nine Shadows Abyss, it was still difficult to hide that sword qi that rushed into the sky.

It also said that according to the momentum displayed by Pei Zongxuan, it is no longer the strange number of qi that can be explained, but the kind of "person with great luck" recorded in the history books, which came into being, and it asserts that when Pei Zongxuan was born, he was born with a vision, and there must be a wonder!

The founding emperors are often like this, although there are occasional echoes, but they are by no means all made up by wild history.

Chen Qingniu naturally didn't think this was nonsense, Wang Jiao, Huang Donglai and Xiao Xue Hou must all be so proud.

Chen Qingniu was very envious, and there was some jealousy, but it was far from being red-eyed.

In fact, to a large extent, Chen Qingniu is quite disgusted by the matter of "carrying luck".

For the immortal monks who can't wantonly interfere with the human dynasty, when Chen Qingniu just became a guest of Lotus Peak, he almost jumped to his feet and scolded his mother, but he only felt that the immortal he cultivated, if he was tied everywhere, wouldn't he be a big loss in cultivation?

The emperor and general of the world, once he is given luck, it is simply a higher version of "not punishing the doctor".

Fortunately, in the end, I heard that as long as the great monk is among the top points, whoever is really not pleasing to the eye can be killed with one punch, no matter what you are thirty-seven twenty-one, the big deal is to pay a little cultivation.

As for what Wang Jiao's so-called "one point" was, Chen Qingniu didn't ask, and she didn't take the initiative to say.

At that time, when he passed through the Wulin Military Town, it was a pity that the puppet was a ghost, and he naturally did not want to get close to the prosperous military town of Yanggang, so he rolled on the ground of the carriage, and tried his best, Chen Qingniu had to let Xie Shiji drive far away, otherwise he really wanted to go to see it from afar.

Chen Qingniu hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Shiji, be careful after entering the village. ”

Xie Shiji nodded, and it was rare to hum.

The nine-foot woman, who only opened three tricks, obviously realized that this trip into the village was unusual.

After she went down the mountain, she never took off her armor, and always wore the armor that weighed 100 catties, and she didn't peel off it for a moment even when she slept.

Coupled with the fact that she herself has the strong physique of the Endless Grandmaster, and the twelve red lotus karmic fires that inhabit the acupoints, it can be said that Xie Shiji is like a majestic pass with amazing defense, and it is both offensive and defensive, once she is made to achieve martial arts, it can be called a nightmare to fight against her.

Holding a spear, wearing armor, and containing the red lotus karmic fire, such a shocking and vulgar gesture is also a loser like Chen Qingniu, and at the same time, it is also thanks to the Lotus Peak, which is one of the three veins of Guanyin, which is a great family, that Chen Qingniu is willing to squander and can squander it like this.

Otherwise, any one of them, placed in any wealthy sect in the world, is not something that ordinary disciples can have, it must be the head of the family or the leading elder, so that they can get lucky to have one of them, and then carefully serve it as a treasure.

Near the village, there was a simple stone bridge over the river, and the bridge had stone steps, so the carriage had to stop by the river, and Xie Shiji tied his horse to the side of the road.

When Chen Qingniu was tying his horse in Xie Shiji, he looked at the bottom of the stone bridge with a solemn face.

The puppet proposed to hide it in one of Chen Qingniu's big sleeves, Chen Qingniu did not object, at this time it hung upside down on the cuffs, and as Chen Qingniu's eyes looked, he was also in a dignified mood.

At the bottom of the stone bridge, there was a rusty iron sword.

Hanging a sword under the bridge?

This should have never been the case in other parts of the Suzaku Dynasty. At least Chen Qingniu and this female ghost who has lived for five hundred years have never heard of it.

The puppet in his sleeve spoke in a heavy tone and said in a low voice: "Why don't we turn around and go back to the post road?"

Chen Qingniu looked up at the top of the mountain, there was no building on the top of the mountain, he stood in place, silent in thought.

At dusk, the smoke curls, the chickens and dogs bark, and the paradise is paradise.

The village is faintly filled with the laughter of children playing, chasing and running.

Seeing that Chen Qingniu didn't move, it continued: "Compared to the boundary monument, the yin qi here is actually much lighter, but I always feel weird. If you only want to be stable, we will turn back immediately, and if you want to learn from those monks who were born in the wild way, and are bent on 'making a fortune' by picking up leaks, then you will enter the village generously. In the final analysis, this is still the jurisdiction of Xiliang after all, and the nine military towns are on the front line, and no matter how mysterious there is here, it will not be a dangerous place of death and death, right?"

Chen Qingniu shook his sleeves, and he hid in amusement.

Chen Qingniu and Xie Shiji walked onto the stone bridge, but there was no abnormal induction, and Chen Qingniu even stomped his feet lightly several times, but he didn't see any mechanism triggered.

The puppet couldn't help but remind: "The locust trees in this village, are they too big?"

Chen Qingniu can never forget, said: "There are four trees at the entrance of the village, one in the village, and two at the end of the village. ”

The puppet chattered: "Although the wood of Huai Rui is auspicious, it is actually quite a ghost and spirit, after all, Huai Di Huai Mansion and the like, not only popular in the yang, the locust tree is also naturally suitable for the yin things, of course, these yin things who like the locust tree are mostly good people, like me." Because the locust wood is the essence of the void star, and as the fourth star in the north of the void of the sun rat, when the void is on duty, the winter solstice has passed, and a yang is born, so it is auspicious. ”

Chen Qingniu said politely: "Save the words 'like me'." ”

The puppet fell silent indignantly.

This village is full of life, and there is no deep atmosphere of gloom.

Some children at the entrance of the village are either hiding behind the chaimen or lying on the wall, looking at Chen Qingniu and Xie Shiji's master and servant, most of them are curious, but they are less afraid.

Chen Qingniu was surprised, these children looked at their faces, they were smart and smart, and it was not uncommon for one or two people in the village to be like this, but most of them were like this, so something was wrong.

Could it be that under his feet, he is stepping on a feng shui treasure?

In the southeast of the Suzaku Dynasty, I heard that many feng shui trees were planted at the head of the village to shield from evil winds. In the northwestern territory of Suzaku in the desert with many yellow sands, this matter is not popular.

A child appeared in the field of vision from a distance, and ran directly to Chen Qingniu, panting, his eyes wide, his face full of curiosity, and asked timidly: "Are you Chen Gongzi?" ”

Chen Qingniu felt a burst of horror, looked up suddenly, and subconsciously pressed the hilt of the sword at his waist.

Meng Xuezhi naturally didn't feel the murderous aura, and still raised his little head high, patiently waiting for the answer, and his immature face was still a little excited and novel to look at the stranger.

Xie Shiji quickly turned his head and looked around, as if he was facing a great enemy.
