After the immortal disappeared

After a while, the food and wine were served.

In addition to a plate of fried snails, there are also scrambled eggs with ground vegetables and a few pieces of braised pork.

The braised pork was bright red and fat, and it looked like the shopkeeper had kept it for himself, but now it was given to his savior.

The drinker chewed two snails before asking He Lingchuan, "Can you see it too?"

He Lingchuan nodded.

This young man is very calm when he encounters ghosts spying on people. "It's not simple. What magical powers have you learned to control ghosts?"

"That's not true." He Lingchuan smiled, "It just so happens that I can see ghosts."

His ability to "see ghosts" was given by the divine bone necklace.

But there are indeed people in this world who are born with open eyes, and "Master Fu" doesn't find it strange.

"What the hell was this?"

"Ji Liuzi. They were full of resentment during their lifetime, and they became resentful ghosts after death." The drinker explained, "They died in the countryside, and they happened to be in places with heavy Yin energy such as mountain shades and watersides, so they turned into resentful spirits. Once someone When he steps on their bones while walking at night, Jiliuzi becomes very angry and follows their popularity to come to take revenge at night."

The shop owner answered with a grimace: "I didn't mean it either."

In the darkness of the wilderness, who can pay attention to their feet at all times?

"It doesn't matter if you did it unintentionally, they just want to take the opportunity to vent their anger." The drinker laughed, "They won't kill you all at once, but they will come to pester you every night, consume your energy, and make you You will feel helpless and unable to sleep at night, and it won't be long before you become ill."

The shopkeeper shuddered.

"You're lucky, you only met one." The drinker held up a piece of ground vegetables, "Jiruzi likes to attack people in groups. Sometimes you only step on one, and they all come out in force. The victim always falls asleep. I heard countless people swearing in my ears, and I was accused by thousands of people in my dream."

Dong Rui said: "There are occasional ghosts in our countryside, but they usually don't have the courage to cause trouble in crowded places."

The drinker smiled and said: "What a great place you have. The country is prosperous and the Yang Qi is strong. These ghosts can't stay or come out. It's not like here. Hey, ghost fields that are hundreds of miles away are common!"

Dong Rui smiled and asked: "What do you call it?"

"Fu." The man smiled, "Fu Liushan."

He was probably a talkative person because he was familiar with it. After only half a quarter of an hour, He Lingchuan knew that it was inappropriate to call him "demon exterminator" because his profession was very strange and he was a unique "celestial master" in the Golden Flash Plains.

Natural and man-made disasters have always occurred on this land, which has spawned a large number of demons and spirits, causing trouble among the people. Heavenly Masters came into being to solve these problems for people.

"In other words, your business scope is very wide, and you can eliminate monsters and catch ghosts?"

"That's right." Fu Liushan nodded, "Whenever non-human things cause trouble, you can come to me. And I'm also good at suppressing evil objects and weapons."

"Evil weapon?"

"Oh, some objects, magical weapons, are contaminated with evil spirits, or are placed in evil places, and they will slowly turn into harmful things. Ordinary people don't know what they are doing and are easily harmed."

The wind outside dropped, and the shop owner pointed north, "When you came, did you see that big mountain?"

It was already dark outside, and He Lingchuan and the two emerged from the ground again, so they had no choice but to nod.

"That's Mount Kyung. Legend has it that the palace of the last emperor of the Shining Gold Empire is in the mountain, and it's called Blessed Castle."

Dong Rui laughed: "This name..."

He Lingchuan's heart moved slightly, remembering a legend in Shao Jian's biography, which was related to "Jingshan". He asked the shop owner: "Why do you say Kyungsan is dangerous and you should not go near it?"

The shopkeeper asked, "Have you ever heard of Luo Sheng Jia?"

Dong Rui glanced at He Lingchuan: "Hey, I seem to have a vague impression?"

Being bored on the boat at sea, he read Shao Jian's biography several times.

"Pang Yuan, the founder of the Shining Gold Empire, once had a treasured armor called 'Luosheng Armor'. It is said that anyone who wears it will be invincible. The emperor wore it to conquer the great empires, but he sealed it after he became emperor, because the armor The evil force on it is very powerful. People who pass through it rarely have a good ending."

He Lingchuan listened carefully: "What then?"

Dong Rui asked: "Did the founding emperor die a good death?"

"That's good. I heard that he lived to be about seventy years old, which is a long life in the Gold Flash Plains." Fu Liushan took a piece of braised pork, "It is said that the Gold Flash Empire imposed heavy taxes and severe punishments. Up to the officials, Even civilians can be easily convicted, but the army is very good at fighting. The emperor Pang Yuan also liked to conquer personally. After he ascended the throne, he went on four or five personal expeditions. Each time he returned with a great victory, expanding the territory of the empire. The entire Golden Flash Plains was at its peak."

"Two hundred years later, the last king of the Shining Gold Empire wanted to go to the countryside to imitate his ancestor's imperial chariot. I don't know who deceived him, so he went wearing Luo Shengjia. You can imagine the final outcome, he was defeated in the wild."

Dong Rui heard the mistake: "Wait a minute, the Golden Empire is so powerful, why can't the monarch suppress an evil armor?"

It was okay for the founding emperor Pang Yuan to wear evil armor. Everyone can understand this. If you have strong Yuan Li and great military achievements, you will naturally be able to suppress them.

He Lingchuan immediately said: "At the end of the empire, it is not far away from disintegration. Since the fate of the country is in decline, how much energy does the last king have in him?"

I won’t mention it far away, just talk about King Lao Fan. He Lingchuan didn't feel much energy from him.

"Yes, that's the truth!" Fu Liushan clapped his hands, "Few people can explain it so thoroughly! Every time I mention it, others just say it's impossible and a lie."

There are very few people on this continent who know the word "Yuanli".

Dong Rui only thought about the treasure: "After he dies, where is Luo Shengjia?"

"Of course it was taken away. But this evil armor will always appear from time to time, bringing about a bloody storm." Fu Liushan bared his teeth. "The more blood stained on this armor, the more powerful it will be. The disaster becomes more terrible."

Dong Rui became even more interested when he heard this: "Where is this precious armor now?"

"Not sure."

"People often go to Kyongsan Mountain to look for armor." The shop owner answered: "At the beginning of this spring, there were treasure hunters who had sharpened sharp points and prepared dry food in my store, and said they were going to Kyungsan Mountain to try their luck. There are always unreliable things. There is a rumor that this evil armor is still in Kyungsan Mountain. As for whether anyone can find it, I don’t know.”

Dong Rui clicked his tongue twice: "This thing is vicious and evil, and it can backfire on its owner at every turn. Why do so many people want it?"

"Aren't you thinking about changing your fate against the will of heaven?" Fu Liushan sipped his wine, "If you can't do it on your own, you can't rely on external help? As long as there is a little hope and a little opportunity, they don't want to let it go. Alas, you won't live here for a long time. But you really don’t understand the feeling of despair!”

The shop owner also sighed along with him.

He Lingchuan took out some broken silver and gave it to him: "Help us and Master Fu boil some more wine, and bring over any delicious food."

Someone’s treating me? Fu Liushan's eyes lit up and he quickly moved to sit at his table: "Young man is generous!"

The shop owner took the money and happily went to the kitchen to look for ingredients.

The three of them chatted until midnight and almost drank all the drinks in the shop. When Fu Liushan was half drunk, he started talking loudly and told He Lingchuan and others many experiences of hunting monsters and catching ghosts.

The two of them listened with gusto and felt that they had benefited a lot.

He Lingchuan specially chose this time to ask about Luo Shengjia, and Fu Liushan told them many past events while he was half drunk.

Many stories have happened around this evil armor, which are either sad and cruel, or tragic.

The people who are repeatedly discussed in the story were once real people.

Even Dong Rui, who was so heartless, toasted him with a glass of wine after hearing this and sighed: "What this evil armor is playing with is the human heart. However, the most terrifying thing in this world is also the human heart."

There was no inn in Wuxian town, so the innkeeper charged each person seven cents and allowed them to spend the night in the lobby while he went to sleep in the back.

After the rain stopped overnight and the weather cleared the next day, He Lingchuan and the others got ready and set off to continue eastbound.

Fu Liushan also packed his bags and stayed with them.

In order to avoid misunderstanding between the two, he also clarified: "I will also go eastward and walk with you for thirty miles, and then we will separate."

On the way, He Lingchuan found something to say:

"By the way, since you are an expert at hunting monsters, do you know there are monsters on Baektu Ridge?"

"Oh, that den of fox demons?" Fu Liushan nodded, "I know, we Tianshi basically don't accept the work in Baitou Ridge."

"Because it's too dangerous?"

"Exactly." Fu Liushan explained to them, "There is a big demon on Baitou Ridge, called Three Tails. I have seen it for at least three hundred years. It has a bunch of little foxes under it, as well as some bird demons and insect demons, so Keep no strangers near that place."

Monsters that live in groups usually have more than one species. Many youkai have strengths that naturally complement each other. Even if the crypt spider is so exclusive, there are mirages accompanying it.

"Does the Three-Tails often cause trouble to the place?"

The White Bear King has been causing trouble around Baimao Mountain for decades and has eaten countless people. If the Julu Country hadn't become rich and powerful and eradicated it, I don't know how long it would have been able to roam freely on the Baimao Mountain.

"How many monsters don't eat people on the Shining Gold Plains? The best food here is people!" Fu Liushan said, "People eaten by these fox monsters appear to be harmless on the outside and seem to be sleeping, but their internal organs will be depleted. . In our professional terms, it means loss of vitality and exhaustion of essence."

Dong Rui smiled and said: "These fox monsters are quite special in eating people, leaving a whole body."

"But they ate too much, and the humans at the foot of the mountain couldn't bear it. Several surrounding forces joined forces to suppress the fox demons. Unfortunately, the three tails were too cunning, and they failed every time."

He Lingchuan suddenly asked: "Yao Guo is also involved?"

Baitou Ridge is close to Yaoguo. Logically speaking, Yaoguo should have the most victims.

Fu Liushan was startled, then thought for a while and then said: "Well, your question is interesting... It seems that the three tails have never harmed the Yao Kingdom before. Therefore, the Yao Kingdom has not sent troops to suppress it."

Dong Rui always catches the key words: "Once upon a time?"

"Some time ago, the fox demons suddenly broke their precepts and even ate the Yao people. They were also said to be particularly ferocious. They directly ate the residents of two towns, which totaled about a thousand people. The emperor's fluids have been coming frequently recently, and I wonder if the new little demon on the mountain is not following the rules."
