Too Reckless
Vol 2 Chapter 45: ghost town
"Too reckless (
Zezhou, Pengyu County.
Heavy dark clouds weighed overhead, bean-sized rain grains smashed into the yellow mud, and broken wood, weeds, and sand were mixed into turbid mud, which poured into the Shanling River from between the countless mountains and valleys.
The river, which was not big, overflowed its channel under the rain, and the muddy water flowed along both sides of the river, submerging the originally overgrown road into a muddy swamp.
Zuo Lingquan was wearing a sackcloth, walking slowly in the mud holding the reins, heading towards the distant county town; the oil-paper lantern in his hand swayed in the wind and rain, bright and dark, like a crumbling dead tree by the river, at any time. All may be submerged by the rolling mud flow.
Jiang Yi was sitting on the back of a horse, also wearing a scorpion, and the raindrops slammed on the hat. The only way to prevent the rain from seeping into the neck was to shrink the neck; the dumpling also shrank into a ball and hid under the hat.
Leaving Linyuan City, the two rushed to Zezhou in six days in order to eliminate the harm to the people as soon as possible.
Zezhou is located in the southeast of the Dayan Dynasty, more than a thousand miles from the capital, but the terrain is not good and the rain is too full. It rains half a year in a year, and there are few people gathering places, and the practice of sects is even rarer; because The government control power is insufficient, but there are more people walking in the rivers and lakes.
When I came here, it was raining for days, and Jiang Yi was soaked in the panties. It was very uncomfortable to sit. She looked into the distance against the rain screen and asked:
"Pengyu County is in front, right?"
Zuo Lingquan stopped, took out the map and glanced at it:
"It's more than two miles away, and it should be there. This map is not accurate. It's difficult to go where it is."
"Maps are the most important weapons in the military. There are bound to be deviations in those that can be sold on the market. It would be good to be able to barely find a place."
Jiang Yi saw that Zuo Lingquan's whole body was even more miserable, and he felt a little bit sad for his fiancé:
"Are you tired? Why don't you come up and sit, and I'll lead the horse to explore the way."
Zuo Lingquan is naturally not tired, the five elements are close to the water, and he is quite comfortable in the rainstorm. Although it is difficult to walk in the mud, he is not willing to let his daughter-in-law lead the horse in the mud, shaking his head:
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Royal Highness. The princess is a daughter of gold, how can I lead a horse to my concubine."
Jiang Yi heard this compliment, and softly "hum~", her eyes were still quite satisfied, and she said softly:
"It's not that I love you dearly, I'm a practitioner. I should let go of my worldly status, and come out with a partner to conquer demons and eliminate demons. How can I let you do your best alone."
Zuo Lingquan smiled and said: "If the princess wants to contribute, she will go to the county seat later, find a place to live, and give me a bath, beating my back and rewarding me."
Jiang Yi frowned: "You think beautiful, you rub it for me... No, don't even think about it, we will open two houses in a while, and I will sleep with Tuanzi."
"Gee~"
"It's not safe to go out. I've been on the road for the past few days. I'm a little tired. What should I do if I'm asleep and careless?"
"Then you don't need to sleep, just keep vigil outside, your spiritual valley's cultivation base, if you don't sleep, you won't die of exhaustion."
"The donkeys of the landlord's family don't dare to call me like this, the princess is not afraid to make me angry, later..."
Jiang Yi was really scared, but her mouth was still hard:
"How's it going?"
"Ha ha…"
"What are you laughing at? If you have the ability to speak clearly, I will tell my aunt now..."
…
The two of them chatted so casually, and walked another two or three miles to the outside of the old city wall of Pengyu County.
Pengyu County is more than 100 miles away from the county seat. It is a small remote county with only a thousand houses, and all the locals live there.
Zuo Lingquan's next job was to report to the yamen in Pengyu County. The incident happened in the Dahuangling area on the north side of the county seat.
In the middle of the night, it rained heavily.
Zuo Lingquan led the horse to a stop outside the city gate, stomped his feet, threw the mud off his boots, and looked at the city gate.
In the city gate hole of the county town, there was a big hole in the city gate. Judging from the traces, it has been nearly a few years, and the military service of the gate guard cannot be seen before and after.
In the dark county town, the sound of torrential rain obscured all the sounds, and rainwater accumulated on the streets. In the center of the county town in the distance, there were several dim light beams shining from the windows, and half of the living people could not be seen.
"Why is this place so ghostly?"
Jiang Yi rolled over and dismounted. After shaking her sticky skirt, her expression became more serious. She took the yellow paper lantern from Zuo Lingquan and moved it to the shabby city gate.
The wooden planks of the city gate are full of twisted lines, there are also a large area of black red marks, and a few yellow paper talismans.
The yellow paper talisman was stained with paste, but it did not stick firmly. It swayed from side to side by the night wind, and made a sound of 'huahuahua~', which made the county town under the night rain a bit more strange.
Zuo Lingquan had a solemn expression, looked left and right, and said:
"This place is very cloudy."
"You feel the yin?"
"I can't feel it, but it's cold down my spine."
Jiang Yi actually felt her heart palpitations too. She carried the yellow leather lantern, approached the city gate, smeared the black marks with her wet fingers, and sniffed it close to her nose.
Seeing this, Zuo Lingquan warned:
"Beware of poison."
"You don't need to remind me, just keep an eye on your surroundings."
Jiang Yi smelled it carefully - the black traces carried a stench. She frowned:
"It's blood, not human blood."
Zuo Lingquan stood in front of him, pressing the hilt of his sword to scan the pitch-black bush outside the city gate, and asked:
"Beast blood?"
"It's not the blood of beasts, it smells like dog blood, chicken blood or something."
Jiang Yi used to be in charge of the arrest division of Great Dan, and had a lot of exposure to the cases of ferocious beasts and folk ghosts. She really knows more about these aspects than Zuo Lingquan who disrespected ghosts and gods since childhood. She explained:
"The common people like to use these things to exorcise evil spirits. Sticking yellow talismans on the door is also a common method to exorcise evil spirits. I'm afraid this place has been haunted by ghosts."
Hearing this, Zuo Lingquan took out the case and looked at it:
"The file says 'It seems that there are beasts making trouble', and there is no mention of haunted things."
"How can the people in remote counties distinguish between beasts and ghosts? In the past, when there were beasts in the Bailu River and people were dragged into the water, they were mistaken by the people as water ghosts. Let's investigate and solve the problem. It's all over, what do you want us to do here?"
"That's true."
Zuo Lingquan put away the file, led the horse and Jiang Yi through the hole in the city gate, and came to the dark county town.
It rained heavily at night, and the uneven streets were full of water.
Jiang Yi sat in front with the lantern in hand, looking left and right while walking; Zuo Lingquan took out an oil-paper umbrella from the horse's side and covered it over the heads of the two of them, listening to the subtle movements around them.
tick dah —
The icy raindrops hit the umbrella surface, slid down the ribs, and were stuck on the hood by the cross wind from the street.
No one could be seen in the town, and the atmosphere was indeed a bit gloomy. The dumplings didn't dare to scream, they just huddled in front of Jiang Yi's neck and watched carefully.
Jiang Yi walked forward for a while, but didn't notice anything unusual. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Zuo Lingquan raised his finger beside him, signaling for silence.
She held her breath and listened attentively. Between the crackling rain curtains, she heard faintly:
"woo woo woo woo…"
It sounded like a woman's whimpering voice.
Zuo Lingquan paused and said softly:
"If the gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, why don't you come back during the day?"
Jiang Yi hid her emotions well, her expression was calm, and she hesitated:
"Don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. We are here to subdue demons and exorcise demons, um... There are lights in the shop in front, let's go and see first."
Zuo Lingquan was not afraid, but he felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange. Seeing that Jiang Yi was not afraid, he took Jiang Yi's hand and walked quickly.
It's just that the two of them just walked along the street and walked out more than ten feet, and there was the slight footsteps of 'Tatata-' under the eaves of the dark and numb houses on the street.
The two stopped at the same time, Jiang Yi raised the yellow lantern to check - the door of a house on the street was not closed, and there was a mess of debris inside.
An old woman with disheveled hair raised her two wrinkled hands and staggered over.
"Woooo..."
The old woman is too old, her gray hair was wet by the rain and stuck to her face, her eyes were gray and white, and her sallow skin looked like dried human skin in the dim light. The whimper of the running wind.
Not very far from each other.
Jiang Yi raised the lantern and saw this scene. She was shocked and stepped back half a step, and her saber was unsheathed by two inches.
choke-
However, before the sword could be drawn, it was held down by Zuo Lingquan next to him.
Zuo Lingquan heard the old woman's breath, and also saw a touch of anxiety on the old woman's face, which didn't look like a ghost or a ghost; he pressed Jiang Yi's hand, took two steps back, and said aloud:
"Old lady, did you admit the wrong person?"
"Woooo..."
The old woman walked tremblingly in the rain, opened her mouth and whimpered, but couldn't hear what she said, and kept walking forward.
Jiang Yi frowned, and did not dare to rush forward, so she could only retreat with Zuo Lingquan.
Fortunately, in a shop with lights on in the distance, I heard a sound and walked out of a shop boy. After looking at this side from a distance, he quickly said:
"Aunt Li, you have mistaken someone, that's not your son."
The two were slightly relieved when they heard the words, and Zuo Lingquan stepped forward to support the old woman.
The shop assistant seemed to be very warm-hearted. He opened his umbrella and ran over. He helped the old woman walk back to the house, and explained at the same time:
"Aunt Li's son was lost in the mountains before. Since then, he has lost his mind and ran out when he heard the sound, scaring many people who walked at night."
Zuo Lingquan was indeed taken aback. Seeing the confused look of the old woman, he sighed softly:
"No one else at home?"
"There is only one son, who used to be very filial. In order to treat my mother's eyes, I didn't marry a daughter-in-law. Once this person is gone, only Aunt Li is left, alas..."
The shop assistant helped the old woman back to the house, helped close the door, and said:
"The two of you seem to meet each other, as if it is the first time to come to the county seat. It rains heavily at night. If you are looking for a place to stay, you can go to the front shop and have a guest room."
The two were about to find a place to stay, and they walked to the inn with Xiao Er. Jiang Yi asked:
"We just came from the capital, and we saw blood splashed on the city gate and talisman paper pasted, but what dirty things happened in the city?"
Xiao Er saw Jiang Yi with a sword and a bodyguard with a horse behind him, thinking it was a heroine from a family of Jianghu, and said:
"The female hero has good eyesight. There are some rumors in the city recently, and I don't know it very well. It seems that someone who chops wood has hit a ghost at Dahuangling. People dare to go out; the black dog's blood on the city gate was splashed by the guy in the dog meat shop in front, and it's useless..."
Jiang Yi nodded lightly and asked again:
"Are there many lost people?"
"When you go into the mountains to chop wood and dig for medicine, you will inevitably encounter tigers, leopards and snakes. It is common for people to get lost, and a few people go missing every year. Not only in the county town, but also in other places, some people get lost..."
Jiang Yi is not surprised by this. The Great Dan government also reports many cases of disappearance every year.
She pondered for a while, then approached Zuo Lingquan and whispered:
"I guess it's the yamen here. For the convenience of closing the case, I gathered all the missing people who could not be found, and made up a reason to report it to the newspaper. It is impossible for the people to react in this way when the beasts are in chaos."
"It's all here. Check things out first and then make a conclusion. If it's just accidentally lost and no beasts make trouble, it's a good thing."
Jiang Yi nodded slowly, no more words, and entered the small inn in the county with Zuo Lingquan.
There were no ghosts on the street, but there were quite a few people in the inn.
Zuo Lingquan entered the gate and glanced at it, and found that the six tables in the lobby of the inn were all seated. They were all dressed in Jianghu attire, and their clothes were not too shabby. Judging from the style, they were only from the lobby of Jianghu, and they seemed to know each other. A middle-aged man wearing a brocade and wearing a sword was talking loudly to an old man in military uniform:
"...Song Lao is highly respected in Zezhou Jianghu, so he can send a junior over here, why should he come in person?"
The old man in the military uniform was quite old, but his limbs were well-proportioned and his temples bulged high. At first glance, he looked like a good player in the outside world. He smiled at this:
"The boxing is afraid of the young and strong, Bitan Villa is very powerful now, the old man was able to suppress it ten years ago, but now there is no way to do it; Jianghu is like this, it is incompetent to hold on to seniority, and sooner or later lose face, it is better to give way to the younger generation neatly …”
"Song Lao's words are too modest..."
…
Hearing these words, Zuo Lingquan showed a little smile in the corner of his eyes. He didn't bother, and went directly to the guest room upstairs with Xiao Er.
Jiang Yi walked in front of Zuo Lingquan, noticed the change in Zuo Lingquan's expression, and asked:
"What are you laughing at? Those people are also practitioners?"
Zuo Lingquan shook his head: "It's just an ordinary Jianghu person. Before I joined the cultivation, I was the first swordsman in the Jianghu in the four southern counties. In all kinds of Jianghu people's gatherings, I have always taken the top spot."
Jiang Yi knew that Zuo Lingquan was very powerful in the world, and was forced to go to Beijing to become the candidate of the concubine, because Zuo Lingquan was everywhere in the four counties in the south. Unable to hide, he was sent to the capital.
Jiang Yi did not deny Zuo Lingquan's self-promotion, but said:
"Really? At that time, I was afraid that many chivalrous women were close to you, right? How much did you harm you with your temper?"
Zuo Lingquan's eyes were helpless, he raised his hand and squeezed Jiang Xiaoju's face:
"I've been infatuated with Wu since I was a child. I've been in the world just to find someone to fight and sharpen myself. I'm not interested in women. If you don't believe me, go ask me. Who in the four southern counties doesn't know that I'm not close to women?"
Jiang Yi didn't mean to disbelieve, she returned Zuo Lingquan with her elbow, and then looked at the little Er who was leading the way:
"Little Er, what are the people below doing?"
The shop assistant took the key and opened the door of a wing room:
"There is an aristocratic family in Jianghu over the county seat. They are in the top spot in Zezhou. Recently, the owner of the villa celebrated his birthday, and those people went to the banquet. I think the two guest officials are also dressed in Jianghu people. Didn't they go there?"
"Passing by here, feel free to inquire."
Jiang Yi waited for the door to open, and was about to enter it, when she realized that Xiao Er was going to go downstairs, she felt that something was wrong, and said:
"Only one room?"
The shop assistant paused for a while, then turned around and said:
"The hall is full, and there really is no other room. If the heroine doesn't live with her, he can come to the hall and make a floor for one night."
Jiang Yi's words choked - how could she be so embarrassed to let Zuo Lingquan go to sleep in the lobby, and Zuo Lingquan ran away, she was so scared by herself; but she couldn't say in front of the second child, 'Forget it, I'll sleep with him' .
Zuo Lingquan shook his head secretly, took out a piece of silver from his sleeve, and threw it to the second shopkeeper skillfully:
"Let's arrange it ourselves, the second brother will help to boil a pot of hot water."
"Ouch~ Young Master gave too much."
"Reward you."
"Thank you sir..."
…
-----
After half an hour.
In the hotel room, the rain cracked on the window edge, making the room more quiet, and only the sound of 'crashing—' water was heard.
The loose skirt and the one-piece silver-scale soft armor were placed on the screen, and the dumplings squatted on it, staring at the door carefully according to Jiang Yi's instructions.
Jiang Yi sat in the misty wooden barrel, rubbing her pale jade-like skin with her hands, making small movements. She listened carefully to the movement in the aisle, and occasionally asked in a low voice:
"Duanzi, he didn't come in, did he?"
"grumble."
Tuan shook his head like a rattle.
Jiang Yi let out a sigh of relief and continued cleaning.
But I haven't heard Zuo Lingquan's voice for a long time, and afraid of Zuo Lingquan's accident, Jiang Yi couldn't help but said again:
"Zuo Lingquan?"
squeak-
The door opened immediately, and you were on call.
Jiang Yi's eyes were slightly startled, and she hurriedly retracted into the wooden barrel, shyly said:
"Who let you in?"
Zuo Lingquan walked into the room, closed the door, and looked a little puzzled:
"Didn't the princess call me?"
"I... Ben Gong just wanted to see if you were there. Just keep quiet. Go out quickly, I haven't finished washing yet."
Zuo Lingquan waited outside the door for nearly a quarter of an hour, thinking that Jiang Yi had finished washing up early. He has already come in, and he has no intention of going out again:
"Across the screen, I don't look around. My clothes are soaking wet, and I stand outside like a fool. The princess washed herself beautifully, so I have to change into dry clothes, right?"
Jiang Yi hid in the tub and threatened in a deep voice:
"Can't you get out?"
stomping-
The sound of footsteps came towards the screen, and the dumpling chirped twice as a reminder.
Jiang Yi's eyes suddenly panicked, and she quickly changed her words:
"It's fine if you don't go out, I'm too lazy to care about you."
Only then was Zuo Lingquan satisfied, he turned around and walked to the table, took off his jacket and robe, because he had to take a shower later, he didn't put on dry clothes, just sat down on a chair wearing thin pants, and looked at the map around the county town. , while asking:
"Princess, there is only one bed in the room..."
"Bengong sleeps on the bed, you sleep on the ground."
"…"
"Why don't you talk? ... I can sleep on the ground. You are very tired to lead the horse so far, so I will treat you..."
"or…"
"You think beautiful."
"I just lie down and don't move..."
"I believe in you asshole."
"…"
Zuo Lingquan didn't expect Jiang Yi to react so quickly, he chuckled lightly and stopped teasing her.
After the sound of water behind the screen for a while, the silver-scaled soft armor on the screen was pulled down. Soon, Jiang Yi wiped her hair and walked out from behind the screen.
The silver-scaled soft armor is extremely well-protected, clinging to the curve of the body, and a hood is hidden behind the head. As long as the matching silver mask is worn, there is no dead angle on the whole body, and it is fine to wear it directly as a tights. However, Jiang Yi would definitely not stand in front of Zuo Lingquan dressed like that. She was still wearing a red nightdress, covering her neck to feet tightly, and she could only see her watery cheeks.
As soon as Jiang Yi came out, she saw Zuo Lingquan naked, and quickly turned her head:
"Why don't you wear clothes?"
"It's not that I haven't seen it."
Zuo Lingquan stood up, glanced up and down, and joked:
"I'm still wearing soft armor when I'm at the inn, isn't the princess hot?"
"When I go out, I don't leave my body. If something goes wrong, I can't change my clothes on the spot."
Seeing Zuo Lingquan walking into the screen, Jiang Yi thought that Zuo Lingquan, like last time, wanted to help her pour water, and was a little embarrassed.
wow-
? !
Jiang Yi's expression froze, then her face flushed, and she said through the screen:
"You bastard... the bath water I used..."
"I know, it's quite fragrant, and there are petals on it, it's really exquisite..."
"you!"
Jiang Yi opened her mouth and wanted to go in to stop her, but at this time she dared to go in, she could only say angrily:
"Aren't you ashamed to use your daughter's bath water?"
Zuo Lingquan sat in the steaming wooden bucket and took a bath, and said with a smile:
"Don't pay too much attention when you go out. Say I'm taking a shower, and the princess is going to watch it? If you're really idle and have nothing to do, you can come in and rub my back..."
"you!"
Jiang Yi had nothing to do with Zuo Lingquan, and couldn't stop it, so she could only swallow her anger, turned around and walked out, but before she took two steps, she heard:
"Don't run around, this place is a bit weird, pay attention to safety."
Jiang Yi knew that this place was weird, but after thinking about it, she paused, turned around and sat at the round table, picking up the map that Zuo Lingquan put down to check it.
It's just that she didn't sit down for a moment when she heard from behind the screen:
"Hmmmm~...hummm..."
Jiang Yi was inexplicable, raised her head and patted the table lightly:
"What are you humming?"
"Sing, if you don't sing in the bath, then the bath is not for nothing."
? !
Jiang Yi regretted coming out with her boyfriend, she could only pretend that she hadn't heard it, and studied the topography of Dahuangling.
Dahuangling is on the north side of the county seat, about forty miles away.
Jiang Yi took out a writing brush and inferred the general terrain of the Dahuangling area according to the direction of the mountains and rivers along the road, and marked the route to be investigated tomorrow on the map; before she finished drawing, she faintly heard from the street outside the window:
"Aunt Li, why did you come out again..."
Jiang Yi frowned slightly, put down the brush, got up and went to the window, pushed the window open a gap, and looked at the street at the city gate.
It was raining heavily outside, and I couldn't see my fingers, only the lantern carried by the second shopkeeper illuminated the whole body more than ten feet away.
The old woman I met just now was helped back by the second shop assistant, and there was indeed a person who had just entered the county seat next to her.
Jiang Yi frowned and looked carefully - the silhouette of the figure looked like a man, wearing a blue robe, holding an oil-paper umbrella in his hand; the light was too dim to see his face and age, but this person was very clean, and it didn't look like he was rushing on a rainy night. It looks like, but judging from the reaction of the second shopkeeper, he is not from the county seat.
In addition, Jiang Yi also found that the man's left hand holding the umbrella seemed to be wearing a glove.
She was about to take a closer look when she found that the man raised the oil-paper umbrella slightly and turned his eyes to this side.
Jiang Yi didn't expect the other party to be so alert, she noticed something was wrong, she wanted to look away, but at this moment, one hand suddenly covered her mouth, and the other hand pushed the window directly open.
Jiang Yi was about to push the wet Zuo Lingquan away, but saw Zuo Lingquan stick his head out of the window and said loudly:
"Why did Aunt Li come out again? Don't get sick when the rain is so heavy."
The shop assistant was helping the old woman back when she heard the voice helplessly and said:
"When someone passes by, they run out, and they don't listen to persuasion when they are old, alas..."
Zuo Lingquan chatted casually, then closed the window, still covering Jiang Yi's mouth with his hand, and said in a low voice:
"Don't talk nonsense, pretend to be having sex."
?
Jiang Yi's eyes were stunned, but she didn't struggle. Zuo Lingquan pressed him directly onto the bed next to her, shook the bed, and saw Zuo Lingquan say:
"Where did you come to the ghost, that is, an outsider came and led Aunt Li out. Don't be afraid, lady, let's continue..."
Jiang Yi's face flushed, but she gritted her teeth and forcibly endured it, and said:
"Death~"
creak creak...
Soon, footsteps came from the street below the window, and the shop's second hello:
"I'm really sorry, it's full. If the guest officer is looking for a place to stay, he can walk down a street and there's an inn..."
"Thank you."
The response came, the voice was very young, it was a man in his twenties.
After a few words of conversation, the sound of footsteps drifted away.
Zuo Lingquan pressed Jiang Yi to shake the bed, and from time to time kissed him on the cheek.
Jiang Yi forcibly endured and cooperated until the bed was about to fall apart, and she whispered:
"Has anyone gone?"
Zuo Lingquan listened for a long time, knowing that the man just now killed a carbine, but he finally left. He looked down at Jiang Yi and said softly:
"If you find something strange in the future, don't stare directly at people, use your peripheral vision."
Jiang Yi knew this truth, but she had just been blinded by the dark lights, and the distance was more than ten meters away. She looked at people through the cracks in the window, and she didn't expect the other party to detect them. She frowned and said:
"That man just now is wrong. He came here in the middle of the night, but the second shopkeeper doesn't know him, which means he's not from the neighborhood; the road outside is full of mud and water, but his body is very clean. He has a strong body, and his alertness is very high, so he is definitely a practitioner."
Zuo Lingquan also came out when he noticed something different. He thought for a while and said, "There are no footsteps at all. You can only detect the existence from the changes in the falling raindrops, and the cultivation base is not low."
"This place is a barren land, how can a practitioner come here?"
"There are people everywhere in the practice, but it's hard to notice it; maybe it's just passing by, and you're alarmed by your gaze, and it may not have anything to do with us."
Jiang Yi nodded slightly, pondered for a while, then recovered her mind and looked at Zuo Lingquan, who couldn't get up from the pressure on her body. She just took a shower and came out in a hurry, so...
"Yeah - you bastard..."
Jiang Yi first widened her eyes, and then closed her eyes quickly, embarrassed and panicked:
"Get up, if you dare to treat me..."
His hands and feet were struggling, trying to push but not knowing where to start.
Zuo Lingquan turned over, lay on the outside of the bed, pulled the quilt over and placed it over the two of them, jokingly said:
"The princess is wearing soft armor, and she can't even pierce the sword, what can I do?"
Jiang Yi hurriedly wrapped herself with the quilt, and pushed Zuo Lingquan under the bed with her feet, shyly said:
"You go down, you..."
Zuo Lingquan lay flat on the pillow, closed his eyes and said:
"I pay attention to the surroundings. The princess can sleep at ease. This place is not peaceful. Even if I want to have bad intentions towards the princess, I have to consider the current situation."
Jiang Yi knew that Zuo Lingquan would not mess around at this time, but the two of them were sleeping in the same bed, and Zuo Lingquan was still undressed. What was the difference between messing around?
She kicked a few times and couldn't move, so she could only shrink to the wall on the inside. She wanted to stare at Zuo Lingquan, but she couldn't look at the naked man, so she could only close her eyes and scolded:
"Anyhow, you put on some clothes. If there is a real fight later, are you ready to fight naked?"
Zuo Lingquan thought so too, he obeyed the order, put on thin pants, lay down again, and pulled the quilt:
"Give me a quilt, it's cold."
"Are you still afraid of the cold?"
"Why do you have to carry the quilt when you can cover it?"
Jiang Yi gritted her silver teeth and could only raise her hand to release some quilts.
Zuo Lingquan smiled and leaned forward again, lying side by side with Jiang Yi, holding the saber in his arms and closing his eyes.
"…"
Jiang Yi couldn't find a way. In fact, she felt that it was safe to lean on Zuo Lingquan's side, so she didn't say any more. She just turned around, turned her back to Zuo Lingquan, and said:
"Duanzi! Come and sleep."
"Gee~"
The dumpling was playing with the small porcelain bottle that Zuo Lingquan had placed on the table, when he heard the sound, he flapped his wings and flew over, landing in front of Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi raised her hand and hugged the dumpling in her arms, whispering:
"If you dare to move, I'll discount the dumpling's legs. I'll see how you can explain it to Tanghu Meizi when you go back."
"grumble?!"
Danzi was struck by lightning, only to feel that the whole world lost its color.
After Jiang Yi finished speaking, she raised her hand and quietly fed the dumpling a piece of bird food, and then closed her eyes with peace of mind...
-------
In the small county town under the night rain, there are only a few scattered lights.
Xu Mo, a contemporary young master of Fulong Mountain, stood on the tallest building in the city with an oil-paper umbrella, looking at the inn window in the distance; after waiting for a long time, no one came out, then he disarmed his guard and turned his attention to the few in the city. A house lit by fire.
Fulong Mountain, Tiandi City, and Iron Arrow House are the three elders of the nine sects in the south. Among them, Fulong Mountain is the oldest and existed before the birth of the nine sects.
The lord of the south, Stealing Pill, broke free from the shackles of heaven, triggering the war of world destruction. After the war, the original Xianjia sects in the south were almost completely wiped out.
In ancient times, cultivators were more traditional, majoring in 'Essence, Qi and Spirit'. Similar to today's warlocks, they mainly studied various Qimen techniques, alchemy in their spare time, drawing talismans, etc. The places of practice were also on the mountains. Hidden away from the world, never showing up in front of ordinary people, is very different from the cultivation path where a hundred flowers bloom today.
A catastrophe swept the entire Yuyao Continent, and it was difficult for Xianfan to stay out of it. The secular dynasties formed an alliance to send troops to do their best, and the ancestors of all parties who stayed in the mountains and forests also appeared. It's not easy to get back up the mountain.
At that time, most of the monks chose to support the major dynasties and re-establish the order in the world, which gradually evolved into two behemoths, Iron Arrow Mansion and Heavenly Emperor City.
There are also some more traditional monks. After the battle, they thought of 'fuck their clothes and go', so they went to Fulong Mountain to live in seclusion and did not care about the world. The method of cultivation is also more traditional; 'Anything can be used to the extreme, and even the heresy of 'Jian Xiu', which does not seek longevity and seeks to kill, has even emerged.
In Yuyaozhou, Fulongshan looked at other sects as if he was a master of the way, looking at a bunch of delinquent teenagers who follow evil ways; while other sects looked at Fulongshan, they were outstanding youths who were reforming and innovating, and they looked at a bunch of people who were holding on to the wrong way. The old-fashioned and pedantic pedant who doesn't let go of whoever is, is not very pleasing to the eyes of both parties anyway.
Fulong Mountain is indeed old-fashioned and conservative, but the things handed down by the ancestors do not mean that they are not easy to use.
In the nine sects, in terms of killing skills, Fulong Mountain may be weaker than the other two elders, but in terms of raising and lowering demons and eliminating demons, the position of Fulong Mountain is not at all controversial, and it deserves the first place in the nine sects.
But now in this world where monks are walking everywhere, the disciples of Fulong Mountain still adhere to the tradition, focusing on subjugating demons and eliminating demons as their main business, drawing talismans, refining alchemy and watching Feng Shui as their side business. Even their clothes are the common blue Taoist robes in ancient times, and they do not like to interact with new monks. communication.
Xu Mo is a contemporary Qingkui of Fulong Mountain. This time, he came to the Dayan Dynasty. He was ordered by his teacher to join the Nine Sects Association in a few months. things within.
When I came to Zezhou, I naturally heard that there was a feminist disorder in this place, and came to see what it was.
Holding an oil-paper umbrella, Xu Mo looked around at the top of the house, and his eyes locked on a house in the corner of the county. The house was brightly lit, and there was a faint sound of gongs and bells.
Xu Mo silently came to the vicinity of the house, looked down, but saw a brazier in the courtyard, and several women were screaming in it:
"Jiro, come back! Erlang, go home..."
In the main room of the courtyard, UUkanshu www.uukanshu.com has two wooden statues, the statues are Lord Linyuan and Lord Qingdu, one holding a sword and the other holding a mace; For 'River God Master' and 'Wu Niangniang', most of the people's door gods are also these two, to the southwest of Dayan, 'River God Master' will be replaced by 'Mountain God Master', and there are also three worshipped together.
In front of the statue is an old Taoist priest with gray hair, wearing a gossip robe, holding a bell and turning in circles.
Xu Mo shook his head secretly without disturbing the people in the courtyard. He turned around and went to a house at the back of the courtyard and opened the door to enter.
The door was locked, and the room was in a mess. A man dressed as a farmer, holding his head huddled in the corner and shivering, kept saying:
"Ghost... there is a ghost..."
There was no response to those who came in.
Xu Mo raised his eyes and knew that it was the soul that was scared away. Mortals have never cultivated, and the soul is too fragile. If it is extremely frightened, it will be damaged. If it does not go crazy, it will become an idiot.
Xu Mo walked to him, flipped his wrist and took out a copper bell, shook it gently, and raised his hand to recite the magic formula silently.
ding ding ding…
Soon, the man huddled in the corner, his empty eyes regained some sense of sanity, and looked forward blankly.
"What did you see?"
"Ghost... Specter... covered in blood, dripping... in the mountain temple..."
"What does it look like?"
"Yes... it's Li... Li... I know..."
"…"
Xu Mo sighed softly, put away the bell, turned around and left the room; the man also lost consciousness and fell to the ground...
